1. Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and
Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally
included in the annual financial statements prepared in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted.
These unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in
conjunction with the consolidated financial statements for the year ended
November 30, 1994 contained in the Company's 1994 Annual Report to
Shareholders.
In the opinion of the Company, the accompanying unaudited consolidated
financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of only normal
recurring accruals) necessary to present fairly the Company's financial
position as of May 31, 1995, the results of its consolidated operations for
the six months and three months ended May 31, 1995 and 1994, and its
consolidated cash flows for the six months ended May 31, 1995 and 1994.
The results of operations for the six months and three months ended May 31,
1995 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the
full year. The consolidated balance sheet at November 30, 1994 has been
taken from the audited financial statements as of that date.
2. Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 115
The Company adopted the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 115, "Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity
Securities" effective December 1, 1994. In accordance with this
pronouncement, the Company's mortgage-backed securities, which have been
classified as held-to-maturity, are stated at amortized cost, adjusted for
amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts to maturity. Such
amortization is included in interest income. There was no impact on the
Company's financial position or results of operations from the adoption of
this pronouncement. The total amortized cost, gross unrealized holding
gains, gross unrealized holding losses, and aggregate fair value of the
mortgage-backed securities are $98,712,000, $6,278,000, $0 and
$104,990,000, respectively at May 31, 1995.
3. Earnings Per Share
The computation of earnings per share is based on the weighted average
number of common shares, special common shares, equivalent Series B
convertible preferred shares and common share equivalents outstanding
during each period. The Series B convertible preferred shares are
considered common stock due to their mandatory conversion into common
stock, and the related dividends are not deducted from net income for
purposes of calculating earnings per share. Common share equivalents
include dilutive stock options and warrants using the treasury stock
method.
If, for purposes of calculating earnings per share, the Series B
convertible preferred shares were excluded from the weighted average shares
outstanding and the related dividends deducted from net income, the
computation would have resulted in a loss per share of $.02 for the six
months ended May 31, 1995 and earnings per share of $.45 for the six months
ended May 31, 1994. The same computation would have resulted in earnings
per share of $.04 and $.26 for the three months ended May 31, 1995 and
1994, respectively.

5. Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In March 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 121, "Accounting for
the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to Be
Disposed Of." The provisions of this statement are effective for
fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1995. Upon adoption, the
impact on the Company's financial position and results of operations is
not anticipated to be significant.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
OVERVIEW
Total revenues for the three months ended May 31, 1995 decreased to $315.5
million from $326.0 million for the three months ended May 31, 1994. For the
six months ended May 31, 1995, total revenues declined to $545.3 million from
$582.9 million for the first six months of 1994. Lower housing and French
commercial revenues primarily accounted for the decrease in total revenues.
Net income for the second quarter of 1995 decreased to $3.8 million or $.10 per
share from $11.2 million or $.28 per share for the same period a year ago. Net
income for the six months ended May 31, 1995 decreased to $4.3 million or $.11
per share from $20.1 million or $.50 per share in the first six months of 1994.
The results for the second quarter and first six months of 1995 were impacted
by a soft California housing market and the lingering effects of severe rains
in California which occurred early in 1995. However, the 17.0% decline in
California unit deliveries in the second quarter of 1995 from the same quarter
last year was nearly offset by an 82.0% increase in deliveries in other Western
states for the same period as the Company's domestic operations outside of
California continued to expand. As part of this expansion, the Company
delivered its first homes in Utah in the second quarter, marking the Company's
fifth new Western United States market in the last three years.
CONSTRUCTION
Revenues decreased by $10.2 million to $308.4 million in the second quarter
of 1995 from $318.6 million in the second quarter of 1994 primarily due
to lower housing revenues and reduced revenues from French commercial
development activities. Residential revenues for the three months ended May
31, 1995 decreased by $2.3 million to $304.1 million on 1,875 world-wide
deliveries from $306.4 million on 1,954 deliveries in the year-earlier period.
Housing revenues in the United States totaled $280.1 million on 1,741 unit
deliveries in the second quarter of 1995, compared to $280.0 million on 1,805
units in the prior year's period primarily due to a decrease of 17.0% in
California unit volume. California housing operations generated revenues of
$219.4 million on 1,295 units in the second quarter of 1995 compared to $253.3
million on 1,560 units in the same quarter a year ago. The 265-unit decline in
California deliveries was partially offset by an 82.0% increase in deliveries
from other United States operations. The decrease in California unit volume
mainly reflected the still relatively weak housing market and the effect of
poor weather conditions which persisted throughout California during the first
quarter and into the second quarter. In particular, the record rains delayed
openings of new communities and slowed production. The domestic operations
outside of California experienced continued growth in the second quarter of
1995 as these operations continued to mature and the Company delivered its
first homes in Utah. Growth in the Company's Western markets was evidenced by
the fact that non-California United States deliveries accounted for 25.6% of
the domestic unit total in the second quarter of 1995 compared to 13.6% in the
second quarter of 1994. Revenues from French housing operations during the
current period decreased to $21.5 million on 110 units from $25.2 million on
139 units in the prior year's quarter.
During the second quarter of 1995, the Company's overall average selling price
increased to $162,100 from $156,700 in the same quarter a year ago as a result
of a 3.7% increase in the Company's average selling price in the United States
and a 7.6% increase in the French average selling price. The Company's average
new home price in the United States increased in the second quarter of 1995 to
$160,900 from $155,100 in the same period of 1994. In France, the Company's
average selling price for the three months ended May 31, 1995 rose to $195,000
from $181,200 in the year-earlier quarter. These increases were largely a
result of a change in product mix.
Second quarter revenues from commercial development activities in France
decreased to $3.9 million in 1995 from $10.9 million in 1994 reflecting the
lower level of commercial activity in the current year. Revenues from land
sales totaled $.4 million in the three months ended May 31, 1995 compared to
$1.3 million in the same period of 1994. In addition, revenues from land sales
in the second quarter of 1995 reflected a decline from the $6.8 million
recorded in the first quarter of 1995. Land sale revenues are impacted by the
availability of land and market conditions and will fluctuate from quarter to
quarter.

For the first six months of 1995, construction revenues totaled $532.8
million, a decrease of $35.2 million from $568.0 million in the prior year's
first half, on lower housing and commercial revenues. The decrease in
housing revenues reflected lower unit volume, partially offset by a higher
average selling price. Housing revenues totaled $520.7 million on 3,242
units in the first half of 1995, compared to $552.3 million on 3,493 units
for the same period a year ago. Housing operations in the United States
produced revenues of $476.2 million on 3,006 units in the first six months of
1995 and $506.4 million on 3,222 units in the comparable period of 1994.
French housing revenues totaled $41.7 million on 212 units in the first half
of 1995 and $43.6 million on 249 units in the corresponding period of 1994.
The decline in United States unit volume for the six month period reflected
the impact of severe weather conditions in California early in the year and
the cumulative effect of interest rate increases implemented by the Federal
Reserve Board throughout 1994 and into early 1995 which primarily impacted
the first quarter. Deliveries in California decreased to 2,267 units for the
first six months of 1995 from 2,841 units for the first six months of 1994.
Partially offsetting this decrease was the increase in deliveries from other
United States operations as part of the Company's continuing domestic
expansion strategy. The Company's average new home price increased to
$160,500 in the first six months of 1995 from $158,000 in the year-earlier
period, reflecting an increase in the average selling price in France to
$196,800 from $175,300, as a result of changes in product mix.
Revenues from the development of commercial buildings in France decreased to
$4.9 million during the first six months of 1995 from $11.9 million in the
comparable period of 1994 reflecting the Company's reduced level of
operations in France's weak commercial market. Company-wide revenues from
land sales totaled $7.2 million for the first half of 1995, compared to $3.8
million for the same period a year ago.
Operating income decreased by $10.2 million to $10.9 million in the second
quarter of 1995 from $21.1 million in the second quarter of 1994. This
decrease primarily reflected lower gross profits on housing sales and
commercial activities and an increase in selling, general and administrative
expenses. The decline in housing gross profits resulted from both lower unit
volume and a reduction in gross margins while the lower profits from
commercial operations reflected the decreased level of commercial activities.
Gross profits (excluding profits from land sales) decreased by $8.2 million
to $53.1 million in the second quarter of 1995 from $61.3 million in the
prior year's quarter. Gross profits (excluding profits from land sales) as a
percentage of related revenues decreased to 17.2% in the current quarter from
19.3% in the year- earlier quarter. For the same periods, the Company's
housing gross margin was 17.1% in 1995, down from 18.2% in 1994, primarily
reflecting a lower housing gross margin in California as higher sales
incentives continue to be required to stimulate buying activity there. In
addition, unit volume declines caused the fixed components of gross margin to
increase as a percentage of housing revenues. Nonetheless, the 1.1
percentage point decrease in housing gross margin in the current quarter
reflected improvement when compared to the larger year-over-year decline of
3.7 percentage points in the Company's housing gross margin during the first
quarter of 1995. This improvement primarily resulted from a higher housing
gross margin in California in the recently completed second quarter versus
the first quarter of 1995. Land sales generated a loss of $.1 million in the
second quarter of 1995 compared to $.3 million in profit during the same
quarter a year ago. By comparison, during the first quarter of 1995, gross
profits from land sales totaled $2.9 million.
Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by $1.6 million to
$42.1 million in the second quarter of 1995 from $40.6 million in the second
quarter of 1994. This increase was principally due to the Company's domestic
expansion combined with increased sales incentives and sales commissions.
Partially offsetting the increase was the effect of the Company's cost
cutting program implemented at the beginning of the year. As a percentage of
housing revenues, selling, general and administrative expenses increased to
13.8% in the second quarter of 1995 compared to 13.2% for the year-earlier
period. This percentage improved in the second quarter of 1995 from 14.6%
for the first quarter of 1995 due to higher unit volume and the impact of
cost cutting measures. The Company believes the overhead reductions,
including staff reductions, reduced marketing and promotion expenses,
elimination of a supplemental incentive compensation plan and other
initiatives implemented during fiscal 1995, combined with anticipated volume
increases, should progressively reduce the ratio of selling, general and
administrative expenses to housing revenues as the year progresses.
For the first six months of 1995, operating income decreased by $21.3 million
to $16.4 million from $37.7 million in the corresponding period of 1994.
This decrease was principally due to lower gross profits on housing sales and
commercial activities. For the six-month period, gross profits (excluding
profits from land
9
10
sales) decreased by $22.4 million to $87.3 million in 1995 from $109.7 million
in 1994. As a percentage of related revenues, gross profits (excluding profits
from land sales) were 16.6% in the first half of 1995, compared to 19.4% in the
prior year's period. Excluding the effect of commercial development
activities, housing gross profits as a percentage of related revenues decreased
to 16.5% in the period from 18.7% a year earlier. These decreases primarily
reflected a lower gross margin in California as substantially higher sales
incentives were required to stimulate buying activity, particularly as a result
of inclement weather, while the volume decline caused the fixed component of
gross margin to increase as a percentage of housing revenues. Gross profits
from land sales increased by $1.8 million in the first half of 1995 to $2.8
million from $1.0 million in 1994.
Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by $.7 million to $73.8
million for the first six months of 1995 from $73.1 million for the same period
of 1994, primarily due to the Company's expanding domestic operations and
increased sales incentives and sales commissions, partially offset by the
impact of the Company's cost reduction program. As a percentage of housing
revenues, selling, general and administrative expenses increased to 14.2% for
the first six months of 1995 from 13.2% in the corresponding period of 1994.
Interest income totaled $.5 million in the second quarter of 1995 compared to
$.4 million in the prior year's second quarter. For the first six months,
interest income totaled $1.0 million in 1995 and $1.1 million in 1994. These
essentially flat levels of interest income reflect little change in the
interest bearing average balances of short-term investments and mortgages
receivable compared to the same periods a year ago.
Interest expense (net of amounts capitalized), reflecting an increase in
average indebtedness and an overall higher effective borrowing rate in 1995,
increased to $7.4 million in the second quarter of 1995 from $4.9 million in
the second quarter of 1994. For the six-month period, interest expense totaled
$13.0 million in 1995 compared to $9.1 million in 1994. Debt levels grew in
1995 primarily as a result of additional borrowings under the Company's
domestic unsecured revolving credit agreement in connection with higher
inventory levels associated with the Company's increasing domestic operations
outside of California. The Company's effective borrowing rate increased as a
result of the hikes in interest rates implemented by the Federal Reserve Board
throughout 1994 and into early 1995.
Minority interests in pretax income of consolidated joint ventures. The Company
conducts a portion of both its residential and commercial development
activities through majority-owned partnerships, primarily in France, which are
fully consolidated in the accompanying financial statements. As a result,
operating income in the second quarter of 1995 has been reduced by minority
interests in the pretax income of these partnerships of $.1 million, compared
to $.2 million in the prior year's period. Minority interests decreased to $.1
million for the first six months of 1995 from $.4 million in the corresponding
period of 1994. Minority interests is expected to remain at reduced levels
reflecting fewer activities from French commercial operations as that market
continues to absorb existing properties.
Equity in pretax income (loss) of unconsolidated joint ventures reflected
break-even results in the second quarter of 1995 compared to a $.6 million
loss in second quarter of 1994. Joint ventures recorded combined revenues, all
of which were generated from residential properties, of $3.3 million in the
current quarter compared to $21.6 million for the corresponding period of 1994.
For the first half of 1995, the Company's equity in pretax loss of
unconsolidated joint ventures decreased to $.1 million from $.5 million in the
same period of 1994. Combined revenues from these joint ventures totaled $16.6
million in the first half of 1995 compared to $21.8 million in the first half
of 1994. Of these amounts, revenues from residential properties accounted for
$13.7 million in 1995 and $21.8 million in 1994.
MORTGAGE BANKING
Interest income and interest expense decreased by $.4 million and $.7 million,
respectively, in the second quarter of 1995 compared to the same quarter a year
ago. For the first six months of 1995, interest income declined by $.8 million
and related interest expense dropped by $1.7 million from the same period of
1994. These amounts decreased primarily due to the declining balances of
outstanding mortgage-backed securities and related collateralized mortgage
obligations, stemming from both regularly scheduled monthly principal
amortization and prepayment activity of mortgage collateral. Interest income
and expense are expected to
10
11
continue to decline as the mortgage-backed securities and related
collateralized mortgage obligations pay off at approximately the same rate.
Other mortgage banking revenues increased slightly to $3.3 million in the
second quarter of 1995 compared to $3.2 million in the prior year's second
quarter. This increase was mainly the result of higher gains on the sale of
mortgages and servicing rights due to the origination of a more favorable mix
of fixed to variable rate loans. For the first half of 1995, other mortgage
banking revenues totaled $4.5 million, a decrease from $6.0 million in the
prior year's period principally due to lower gains from the sale of mortgages
and servicing rights in the first quarter of 1995 due to lower mortgage
origination volume in the United States.
General and administrative expenses increased slightly to $1.3 million in the
second quarter of 1995, compared to $1.2 million in the prior year's second
quarter due to a slight increase in loan origination volume during the
current quarter. For the six-month period, these expenses were $2.4 million
in 1995 and $2.5 million in 1994 reflecting lower mortgage production levels
due to the lower domestic unit deliveries and the benefit of aggressive cost
reduction programs.
INCOME TAXES
Income tax expense totaled $2.3 million in the second quarter of 1995 and
$6.6 million in the prior year's second quarter. For the first six months of
1995, income tax expense totaled $2.5 million compared to $11.8 million in
the same period of 1994. These amounts represented effective income tax
rates of approximately 37% in both periods of 1995 and 1994.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Company assesses its liquidity in terms of its ability to generate cash
to fund its operating and investing activities. Historically, the Company
has funded its construction and mortgage banking concerns with internally
generated operating results and external sources of debt and equity
financing. For the six months ended May 31, 1995, net cash used for
operating, investing and financing activities totaled $24.5 million, compared
to $14.1 million used in the first half of 1994.
The Company's operating activities for the first six months of 1995 and 1994
used $91.1 million and $51.6 million, respectively. For the six months ended
May 31, 1995, the Company primarily used cash to fund a net investment of
$91.4 million in inventories, excluding $23.5 million of inventories acquired
through seller financing, and to pay down $39.9 million in accounts payable,
accrued expenses and other liabilities. The use of cash was partially offset
by six months' earnings of $4.3 million, a reduction in receivables of $54.8
million and various noncash items deducted from net income. Inventories
increased primarily in the United States where they rose to $907.7 million at
May 31, 1995 from $807.5 million at November 30, 1994, as the Company
continued its domestic expansion in the second quarter of 1995 in
anticipation of new community openings in the second half of the year. The
reduction in receivables mainly related to a decrease in mortgage origination
volume in the second quarter of 1995 as compared to the fourth quarter of
1994, resulting in a lower balance of mortgages held under commitment of
sale.
Operating activities for the first six months of 1994 used cash for a net
investment of $83.8 million in inventories, excluding $4.1 million of
inventories acquired through seller financing, and to pay down $59.9 million
in accounts payable, accrued expenses and other liabilities. The use of cash
was partially offset by second quarter earnings of $20.1 million and a $67.5
million reduction in receivables. Inventories increased mainly due to the
Company's continued domestic expansion. The reduction in receivables related
primarily to a decrease in mortgage origination volume in the second quarter
of 1994 compared to the fourth quarter of 1993.
Cash provided by investing activities totaled $1.0 million in the first six
months of 1995 compared to $25.3 million in the year-earlier period. In the
first half of 1995, cash was provided from $5.1 million in proceeds received
from mortgage-backed securities which were principally used to pay down the
collateralized mortgage obligations for which the mortgage-backed securities
had served as collateral. Partially offsetting
11
12
these proceeds was $3.1 million of cash used for other investing activities.
In the first half of 1994, proceeds of $34.6 million received from
mortgage-backed securities were partially offset by $5.5 million of cash used
for investments in unconsolidated joint ventures.
Financing activities in the first half of 1995 provided $65.6 million of cash
compared to $12.2 million provided in the same period of 1994. In the first
six months of 1995, cash was provided by $80.9 million in net proceeds from
borrowings. These cash inflows were partially offset by payments on
collateralized mortgage obligations of $5.1 million, the funds for which were
provided by receipts on mortgage-backed securities; and $9.8 million of cash
dividend payments. Financing activities for the six months ended May 31, 1994
resulted in net cash inflows due mainly to $141.1 million in net proceeds from
borrowings substantially offset by the purchase of special common stock and
warrants for $73.7 million; payments on collateralized mortgage obligations of
$33.5 million; and $9.8 million of cash dividend payments.
Under the Company's $500 million domestic unsecured revolving credit facility,
which contains a $200 million sublimit for the Company's mortgage banking
operations, a total of $166.9 million was available for future use as of May
31, 1995. The Company's French unsecured financing agreements had in the
aggregate $66.6 million available at May 31, 1995. In addition to the $200
million sublimit, the Company's mortgage banking operations had commitments of
$120 million on the asset-backed commercial paper facility. Of the total $120
million potentially available under this facility, $34 million was available at
quarter-end for the mortgage banking operation's future use.
The Company believes it has adequate resources and sufficient credit line
facilities to satisfy its current and reasonably anticipated future
requirements for funds to acquire capital assets and land, to construct homes,
to fund its mortgage banking operations and to meet any other needs of its
business, both on a short and long-term basis.
As of May 31, 1995, the Company's residential backlog was at its highest level
in both units and dollars compared to second quarter levels of the previous
three years. Residential backlog at the end of the second quarter of 1995
consisted of 1,651 orders, representing aggregate future revenues of
approximately $275.6 million compared to 1,285 orders representing $198.5
million a year earlier. The Company's operations in the United States
accounted for approximately $225.3 million of backlog value on 1,391 orders at
May 31, 1995 compared to $151.3 million on 1,011 orders at May 31, 1994.
Backlog in California totaled approximately $149.8 million on 859 orders at May
31, 1995 compared to $132.9 million on 848 orders at May 31, 1994, marking the
first quarter in two years that California unit backlog compared favorably to
the prior year's quarter. Other United States operations also demonstrated
year-over-year growth in backlog levels with the backlog at May 31, 1995
increasing to approximately $75.5 million on 532 orders from $18.4 million on
163 orders at May 31, 1994. Growth in these other Western states reflected a
163.4% increase in net orders for the first six months of 1995 compared to the
first six months of 1994 as a result of the Company's domestic expansion. The
Company expects the improved backlog and an anticipated continuation of strong
new order activity in the other United States operations to contribute to an
improved level of domestic deliveries in the second half of 1995 when compared
to the first two quarters of the year.
In France, the residential backlog value at May 31, 1995 totaled approximately
$48.7 million on 243 orders, and $45.1 million on 253 orders a year earlier.
The 1995 second quarter backlog improved from $30.1 million on 169 units at
November 30, 1994. However, the Company's net orders in France decreased 30.9%
during the second quarter of 1995 to 134 orders from 194 orders for the same
period a year ago as the pace of sales slowed in anticipation of the
presidential elections in late May. Due to the continuing decline in net
orders for French housing in June, full year 1995 profits for these operations
are not expected to be significant. Backlog associated with consolidated
commercial development activities was valued at approximately $25.6 million at
May 31, 1995 compared to $29.8 million at May 31, 1994, reflecting the reduced
opportunities in the French commercial market. French commercial activities
will likely remain at reduced levels as the market continues to absorb existing
properties.
Substantially all of the homes included in the Company's residential backlog
are expected to be delivered in 1995; however, cancellations could occur,
particularly if market conditions deteriorate or mortgage interest rates
increase, thereby decreasing backlog and related future revenues.
12
13
The Company's United States operations outside of California generated 25.6%
of domestic deliveries in the second quarter of 1995 compared to 13.6% in the
same period a year ago. During the three months ended May 31, 1995, the
Company delivered its first homes in Utah and had deliveries from operations
in New Mexico and Colorado where there were no corresponding deliveries in
the same period in 1994. In addition, net domestic orders were up 15.0% in
the second quarter of 1995 versus the same quarter a year ago. This positive
trend continued in the month of June as United States net orders were up
40.8% over the prior year, including a 24.9% increase in California. With
higher backlog levels at the end of the second quarter of 1995, the recent
improvement in net orders and the interest rate reduction announced by the
Federal Reserve Board in early July, the Company believes it is
well-positioned for improvement during the remainder of the year.
Nevertheless, the Company continues to face the challenge of the still
relatively weak economy in California, its largest market.
In Mexico, the level and timing of sales or deliveries remain uncertain as
the Company continues to re-assess its start-up operation there. The
operating environment in Mexico continues to be affected by the series of
sharp devaluations of the peso which occurred in early fiscal 1995 and slowed
an already complex regulatory process and heightened market concerns for new
home sales.
