         Operating earnings from Contracting and Construction Services for the

million for the same period last year. Revenues for the current nine months were
$974.7 million, 5% more than revenues of $928.6 million for the nine month

OTHER DEVELOPMENTS

         As part of its increased focus on serving urban markets, Centex Homes
announced in January that it has signed a letter of intent to acquire CityHomes,
a leading builder of upscale urban townhomes in Dallas. The acquisition would
include all homes under construction as well as land or lots for approximately
300 homes. CityHomes, founded in 1997, has been nationally recognized for its
sophisticated luxury homes, generally priced from $250,000 to $450,000, and
their impact on the revitalization of Dallas neighborhoods close to downtown.

         During the second quarter of fiscal 2001, Centex Homes signed a letter
of intent to acquire the home building assets of The Selective Group, based in
Farmington Hills, Michigan.

         During the third quarter of the fiscal year, Centex Construction
Products, Inc. completed the purchase of certain strategic assets from the
successor to Republic Group Incorporated for a purchase price, including $100
million of subordinated debt, of approximately $400 million. Among the principal
strategic assets are a 1.1 billion-square-foot gypsum wallboard plant and a
220,000 ton-per-year lightweight paper mill. The acquisition makes CXP the
nation's fourth largest gypsum wallboard producer and enables the company to
vertically integrate into the lightweight paperboard business.

         Also during the quarter, Centex HomeTeam Pest Control acquired four
pest management companies, three in Florida and one in North Carolina. The
acquisitions added a total of 8,200 customers to HomeTeam Pest Control's
existing customer bases in these markets, bringing its total number of customers
nationwide to 121,000.

OUTLOOK

         Centex said home sales continue at a high level and home building
prospects remain positive. The Company expects profits from Financial Services
to increase as interest rates fall and its sub-prime loan portfolio grows. In
addition, Contracting and Construction Services is expected to continue to
operate at record levels. However, despite strong product volumes, earnings from
Centex Construction Products will be negatively impacted by higher fuel and
energy costs and lower product pricing in gypsum wallboard.

         As a result, Centex said its earnings for the current fiscal year,
ending March 31, 2001, should approximate those of fiscal 2000, and the Company
expects to report record results during fiscal 2002.
