HOMEFED CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Interim Consolidated Financial Statements
1. The unaudited interim consolidated financial statements, which reflect all
adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring items) that management
believes are necessary to present fairly the results of interim operations,
should be read in conjunction with the Notes to Consolidated Financial
Statements (including the Summary of Significant Accounting Policies)
included in the Company's audited consolidated financial statements for the
year ended December 31, 2001 which are included in the Company's Annual
Report filed on Form 10-K, as amended by Form 10-K/A, for such year (the
"2001 10-K"). Results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily
indicative of annual results of operations. The consolidated balance sheet
at December 31, 2001 was extracted from the Company's audited annual
consolidated financial statements and does not include all disclosures
required by generally accepted accounting principles for annual financial
statements.
Certain amounts for prior periods have been reclassified to be consistent
with the 2002 presentation.
2. Field overhead and management service fees earned from the San Elijo Hills
project were $1,610,000 and $3,274,000 for the nine month periods ended
September 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively, and $57,000 and $1,852,000 for
the three month periods ended September 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively. In
addition, the Company earned co-op marketing and advertising fees from the
project's homebuilders of $1,496,000 and $469,000 for the nine month
periods ended September 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively, and $600,000 and
$122,000 for the three month periods ended September 30, 2002 and 2001,
respectively. See Note 14 for information about the Company's acquisition
of this project on October 21, 2002.
3. The note payable to Leucadia Financial Corporation ("LFC), a subsidiary of
Leucadia National Corporation ("Leucadia"), has a principal amount of
$26,462,000. Interest on the note of $1,188,000 and $401,000 was expensed
and paid during each of the nine and three month periods ended September
30, 2002 and 2001, respectively. Additionally, interest expense includes
amortization of debt discount related to the indebtedness to LFC of
$858,000 and $762,000 for the nine month periods ended September 30, 2002
and 2001, respectively, and $297,000 and $264,000 for the three month
periods ended September 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively. On October 9,
2002, the maturity date of this note was extended from December 31, 2004 to
December 31, 2007 and the interest rate was increased from the then
existing 6% to 9% for the period from December 31, 2004 to December 31,
2005, 10% for the period from December 31, 2005 to December 31, 2006 and
11% thereafter. In connection with these amendments, the Company paid LFC a
$250,000 fee.
4. In March 2001, the Company entered into a $3,000,000 line of credit
agreement with LFC. Loans outstanding under this line of credit bear
interest at 10% per annum. Effective March 1, 2002, this agreement was
amended to extend the maturity to February 28, 2007, unless earlier
terminated by LFC not later than November 15 of any year, effective
February 28 of the following year. At September 30, 2002, $650,000 was
outstanding under this facility. Interest on the line of credit of $33,000
and $19,000 was expensed and paid during the nine month periods ended
September 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively. On October 9, 2002, this line of
credit with LFC was increased from $3,000,000 to $10,000,000, and LFC's
ability to terminate the line of credit as of November 15 of any year was
removed.

Notes to Interim Consolidated Financial Statements, continued
5. The Company records environmental liabilities when it is probable that a
liability has been incurred and the amount or range of the liability is
reasonably estimable. The Company has commissioned a remediation study
concerning 34 acres of undeveloped land owned by Otay Land Company. The
need for remediation results from activities conducted on the land prior to
the Company's ownership. Based upon the preliminary findings of this study,
the Company has estimated that the cost to implement the most likely
remediation alternative would be approximately $11,200,000. The Company has
accrued that amount as an operating expense in the third quarter of 2002.
The estimated liability is neither discounted nor reduced for potential
claims for recovery from previous owners and users of the land who may be
liable, and may increase or decrease based upon the actual extent and
nature of the remediation required, the type of remedial process approved,
the expenses of the regulatory process, inflation and other items. Although
this estimated liability is the Company's current best estimate, no
assurance can be given that the actual amount of environmental liability
will not exceed the amount of reserves for this matter or that it will not
have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial position, results
of operations or cash flows.
6. Basic income (loss) per share of Common Stock was calculated by dividing
net income (loss) by the sum of the weighted average number of common
shares outstanding and, for diluted earnings (loss) per share, the
incremental weighted average number of shares issuable upon exercise of
outstanding options for the periods they were outstanding. The number of
shares used to calculate basic earnings (loss) per share amounts was
56,808,125 and 56,807,845 for the nine month periods ended September 30,
2002 and 2001, respectively, and 56,808,223 and 56,807,883 for the three
month periods ended September 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively. The number
of shares used to calculate diluted earnings (loss) per share was
56,808,125 and 56,807,845 for the nine month periods ended September 30,
2002 and 2001, respectively, and 56,808,223 and 57,205,282 for the three
month periods ended September 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively. Options to
purchase 358,043 and 368,259 weighted average shares for the nine month
period ended September 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively, and 413,767
weighted average shares for the three month period ended September 30, 2002
were not included in the computation of diluted loss per share as those
options were antidilutive.
7. Under the current administrative services agreement, which was amended as
of January 1, 2002 to extend through December 31, 2002, LFC provides
administrative services, including providing the services of one of the
Company's executive officers, for a monthly fee of $10,000. Administrative
fees paid to LFC were $90,000 and $82,000 for the nine month periods ended
September 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively, and $30,000 and $26,000 for the
three month periods ended September 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively.
The Company's corporate office is in part of an office building subleased
from Leucadia for a monthly amount equal to its share of Leucadia's cost
for such space and furniture. In connection with these rentals, the Company
expensed $183,000 and $185,000 for the nine month periods ended September
30, 2002 and 2001, respectively, and $59,000 and $61,000 for the three
month periods ended September 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively.
8. In June 2002, the partnership relating to the development in La Quinta,
California, in which one of the Company's subsidiaries was a partner, was
dissolved. In connection therewith, the subsidiary is no longer required to
maintain a minimum net worth of $1,000,000 in connection with an indemnity
agreement.
9. In June 2002, Otay Land Company sold 85 acres of developable land for total
cash proceeds of $4,285,000, which included $500,000 previously received as
a non-refundable deposit. Cost of sales related to this transaction
aggregated $809,000, consisting of land costs, closing costs and
commissions. Land costs allocated to the parcel of land sold were
determined based on the relative fair values of the various land components
prior to development and are charged to cost of sales at the time of the
sale.
8
Notes to Interim Consolidated Financial Statements, continued
The cash generated from this sale is not available for general corporate
use by the Company; however, as permitted by the provisions of the Otay
Land Company LLC agreement, (the "Agreement"), it has been retained by Otay
Land Company to fund its project costs and operating expenses. Any
distribution of available cash from Otay Land Company must first be paid to
Leucadia to satisfy its cumulative preferred return and its preferred
capital interest before any distributions can be paid to the Company. At
September 30, 2002, Leucadia's preferred capital interest and cumulative
preferred return, which is reflected as minority interest in the
consolidated balance sheet, totaled $13,958,000. Minority interest expense
for the periods ended September 30, 2002 reflects the reversal of $407,000
recorded in the second quarter of 2002, representing Leucadia's incremental
2% annual cumulative preferred return that is payable out of and to the
extent there are profits under the Agreement. Such amount was reversed in
the third quarter of 2002 because as of September 30, 2002, Otay Land
Company no longer had cumulative profits.
10. Income tax expense for the periods ended September 30, 2002 and 2001
principally relates to federal and state minimum taxes incurred. The
Company has not recognized income tax benefits for its operating losses and
deferred tax assets due to the uncertainty of sufficient future taxable
income that is required in order to record such tax benefits.
11. On July 10, 2002, options to purchase an aggregate of 6,000 shares of
Common Stock were granted to members of the Board of Directors under the
Company's 1999 Stock Incentive Plan at an exercise price of $.95 per share,
the then current market price per share.
12. Prior to the amendment and settlement discussed below, the schedule under
the general development plan for Otay Ranch called for the conveyance of
mitigation land from an identified initial area in which the Company owned
437 acres. Other owners of developable land in the project have not had
enough mitigation land in this initial area of conveyance to enable them to
proceed with immediate development without the acquisition of additional
mitigation land. The City of Chula Vista proposed an amended conveyance
schedule that the Company had previously opposed.
On August 27, 2002, the Company reached agreement with the City of Chula
Vista and another party in settlement of the Company's objection to the
amendment of the conveyance schedule, and the amendment was adopted. Under
the settlement, among other things, the Company withdrew its objection to
the revised conveyance schedule and the City agreed to acquire the
Company's 437 acres of mitigation land by eminent domain proceedings. The
amount that the Company could ultimately receive for this property will be
based upon appraisals, the value of which currently cannot be estimated,
but is not expected to be less than book value.
13. The Company recently accepted an offer to sell approximately 1,450 acres of
developable and related mitigation land within Otay Ranch for a sales price
of $22,500,000. If the transaction closes, this sale would result in a
pre-tax gain of approximately $18,000,000 for Otay Land Company, and the
sales proceeds would give the Otay Land Company the ability to completely
satisfy the preferred capital interest and preferred return due to Leucadia
(aggregating $14,750,000 at September 30, 2002, inclusive of the
incremental 2% annual cumulative preferred return payable only to the
extent there are profits). Consummation of the transaction is subject to a
number of conditions, including obtaining necessary state and federal
governmental approvals to fund the purchase price, and other matters. No
assurance can be given that the requisite approvals will be obtained or
that the transaction will ultimately be consummated. The Company's
obligation to sell this land to the offeror expires if the transaction does
not close by February 28, 2003.
9
Notes to Interim Consolidated Financial Statements, continued
14. On October 21, 2002, the Company purchased from Leucadia all of the issued
and outstanding shares of capital stock of CDS Holding Corporation ("CDS"),
which through its majority-owned indirect subsidiary, San Elijo Hills
Development Company, LLC ("San Elijo"), is the owner of the San Elijo Hills
project, a master-planned community located in the City of San Marcos, in
San Diego County, California. As more fully described in the 2001 10-K, the
Company has been the development manager of this project, under a
development agreement, pursuant to which the Company has been entitled to
certain fees based on the project's revenues, and a success fee.
Development of the project is underway, with land for approximately 1,600
dwelling units sold and land for approximately 1,800 of the dwelling units
and all of the commercial property remaining to be developed during the
course of this decade.
The purchase price of $25,000,000 consisted of $1,000,000 in cash and
24,742,268 newly issued shares of the Company's common stock, which
represents approximately 30.3% of the newly outstanding HomeFed stock. The
value the Company received through the purchase of CDS includes the
$15,200,000 preferred return payable by San Elijo, CDS's residual equity
interest after payment of the success fee and Leucadia's commitment to
continue to provide to San Elijo project improvement bonds which are
required prior to the commencement of any project development. The
principal assets of CDS on a consolidated basis include the project real
estate that is being developed in stages, and cash and cash equivalents of
approximately $20,200,000, which will be used for future development and
other project related expenses.
The acquisition of CDS will be accounted for as a purchase, and the Company
will consolidate CDS in its financial statements subsequent to acquisition.
The San Elijo Hills project is encumbered by trust deed indebtedness as of
September 30, 2002 in the amount of $21,800,000, which does not bear
interest. Such debt is payable in certain specified amounts upon the sale
of lots, or if there are no future lot sales, an aggregate minimum amount
of $600,000 is payable each year. Under purchase accounting, the Company
will record this obligation in its financial statements at the date of
acquisition based on the present value of amounts expected to be paid,
discounted at an appropriate interest rate.
In connection with the acquisition, the Company is in the process of
preparing historical audited financial statements of CDS and certain pro
forma financial information for filing with the Securities and Exchange
Commission. The preparation of the pro forma balance sheet information and
the accounting for this acquisition will be based upon independent
appraisals of the value of the assets and liabilities acquired, which have
not as yet been completed. However, the table below presents a preliminary
pro forma balance sheet of the Company after the acquisition of CDS, based
upon the Company's estimate of the value of the assets and liabilities
acquired. The pro forma amounts may change upon receipt of the independent
appraisals.

shares pursuant to the Securities Act under certain circumstances. These
transactions were negotiated with and approved by a committee of Company
