Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Organization Newmark Homes Corp. and subsidiaries (the Company) is a majority-owned subsidiary of Pacific Realty Group, Inc. (PRG) and ultimately a subsidiary of Pacific USA Holdings Corp. (PUSA). The Company was formed in December 1994 to serve as a real estate holding company. The Company's primary subsidiaries are as follows: Subsidiary Nature of Business Newmark Home Corporation (Newmark) ......... Single-family residential homebuilding in Texas, Tennessee and North Carolina -formed in 1983. Westbrooke Communities, Inc. (Westbrooke)... Single-family residential homebuilding in Florida -formed in 1976. The Adler Companies, Inc. (Adler) .......... Single-family residential homebuilding in Florida -formed in 1990. Pacific United Development Corporation (PUDC)...................................... Residential lot development in Texas and Tennessee -formed in 1993. Basis of Presentation The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. The accounting and reporting policies of the Company conform to generally accepted accounting principles and general practices within the homebuilding industry. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in the consolidated financial statements. The preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Interim presentation The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the Company and are unaudited. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been omitted from the accompanying statements. The Company's management believes the disclosures made are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. However, the financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's December 31, 1998 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Earnings per share Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing earnings attributable to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock or resulted in the issuance of common stock that then shared in the earnings of the Company. The following tables reconcile the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share for the three months ended March 31, 1998 and 1999 respectively. Three Months Ended March 31, ------------------------------------------ 1998 1999 ------------------- ------------------ Income available to common shareholders (Numerator).......................................... $ 1,276,000 $ 1,995,000 Weighted average of shares outstanding (Denominator)....................................... 9,622,222 11,500,000 Basic EPS ....................................... $.13 $.17 =================== ================== Effective of dilutive securities - 1998 Tandem Stock Option Plan.................................... - - Diluted EPS..................................... $.13 $.17 =================== ================== Note 2.

Commitments and Contingencies The Company is subject to certain pending or threatened litigation and other claims. Management, after review and consultation with legal counsel, believes the Company has meritorious defenses to these matters and that any potential liability from these matters would not materially affect the Company's consolidated financial statements. Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operation This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q may contain forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Actual results could differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements as a result of the risk factors set forth below.

Revenues for the three months ended March 31, 1999, increased by 34.2%, to $92.8 million, from $69.2 million for the comparable period of 1998. The number of homes closed by the Company increased by 25% to 414 homes in the three months ended March 31, 1999 from 331 homes in the same period of 1998. The average selling price of homes closed in the three months ended March 31, 1999 was $224,232, an increase of 7.3% from the $209,048 average selling price in the comparable period of 1998. New net sales contracts increased 18.1%, to 654 homes for the three months ended March 31, 1999, from 554 homes for the three months ended March 31, 1998. The dollar amount of new net sales contracts increased 31.4%, to $152.8 million. The Company was operating in 69 subdivisions at March 31, 1999, compared to 54 subdivisions at March 31, 1998. At March 31, 1999, the Company's backlog of sales contracts was 993 homes, a 22% increase over comparable figures at March 31, 1998. Cost of sales increased by 35.7%, to $78.3 million in the three months ended March 31, 1999, from $57.7 million in the comparable period of 1997. The increase was attributable to the increase in revenues. As a percentage of revenues, cost of sales for the quarter increased to 84.4% in 1999 from 83.5% in 1998. Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expense increased by 26.9%, to $10.3 million in the three months ended March 31, 1999, from $8.1 million in the comparable period of 1998. As a percentage of revenues, SG&A expense decreased slightly to 11.1% in 1999, from 11.8% in 1998. This increase was caused by the expansion into the new markets of Nashville, Tennessee and Charlotte and Greensboro, North Carolina as well as the expansion in the Company's Texas markets as indicated by a 22% increase in the Company's backlog at the end of March 1999 versus March 1998. Interest expense amounted to $403,000 in the three months ended March 31, 1999, compared to $825,000 in the comparable period of 1998. The Company follows a policy of capitalizing interest only on inventory under construction or development. During the three months ended March 31, 1999 and 1998, the Company expensed a portion of incurred interest and other financing costs on those completed homes held in inventory. This expense decreased due to the decrease in the average number of completed homes held in inventory for the quarter ending March 31, 1999. Capitalized interest and other financing costs are included in cost of sales at the time of home closings. The Company's provision for income taxes decreased as a percentage of earnings before taxes to 36.9% for the three months ended March 31, 1999, compared to 37.5% for the three months ended March 31, 1998. The decrease is attributable to a state income tax benefit for Adler. Under a tax allocation agreement with PUSA, the Company is required to calculate its federal corporate income tax liability as if it filed a separate federal income tax return for each period and to pay PUSA the sum which would result from such calculation if the Company were subject to federal corporate income tax and filed a separate tax return. The Company recognized federal income tax expense under the tax allocation agreement amounting to $1,181,000 for the three months ended March 31, 1999 compared to $714,000 for the three months ended March 31, 1998. Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources At March 31, 1999, the Company had available cash and cash equivalents of $3.1 million. Inventories (including finished homes and construction in progress, developed residential lots and other land) at March 31, 1999, increased by $25.3 million from $185.2 at December 31, 1998, due to a general increase in business activity and the expansion of operations in the newer market areas. Because of the increased business activity and expansion of operations in the newer markets, the Company's ratio of construction loans payable to total capital increased to 61.8% at March 31, 1999, from 56.0% at December 31, 1998. The equity to total assets ratio decreased during the three months, to 34.1% at March 31, 1999, from 36.7% at December 31, 1998. The Company's financing needs depend upon the results of its operations, sales volume, inventory levels, inventory turnover, and acquisitions. The Company has financed its operations through borrowings from financial institutions and through funds from earnings. At March 31, 1999, the Company had unused lines of credit for construction loans totaling approximately $228.4 million of which $19.3 million is available to draw down. The Company's growth requires significant amounts of cash. It is anticipated that future home construction, lot and land purchases and acquisitions will be funded through internally generated funds and new and existing borrowing relationships. The Company continuously evaluates its capital structure and, in the future, may seek to further increase secured debt and obtain additional equity to fund ongoing operations as well as to pursue additional growth opportunities. Except for ordinary expenditures for the construction of homes and, to a limited extent, the acquisition of land and lots for development and sale of homes, at March 31, 1999, the Company had no material commitments for capital expenditures. Seasonality and Quarterly Results The homebuilding industry is seasonal, as generally there are more sales in the spring and summer months, resulting in more home closings in the fall. The Company operates in the Southwestern and Southeastern markets of the United States, where weather conditions are more suitable to a year-round construction process than other areas. The Company also believes its geographic dispersion to be somewhat counter-cyclical, with adverse economic conditions associated with certain of its markets often being offset by more favorable economic conditions in other areas. The seasonality of school terms has an impact on the Company operations, but it is somewhat mitigated by the fact that many of the Company's buyers at the higher end of the Company's price range, including Fedrick, Harris custom homes, no longer have children in school. As a result of these factors, among others, the Company generally experiences more sales in the spring and summer months, and more closings in the summer and fall months. Likewise, Westbrooke has experienced seasonality in its revenues, generally completing more sales in the spring and summer months and more closings in the fourth quarter. The Company historically has experienced, and in the future expects to continue to experience, variability in revenues on a quarterly basis. Factors expected to contribute to the variability include, among others: (i) the timing of home closings; (ii) the Company's ability to continue to acquire land and options on acceptable terms; (iii) the timing of receipt of regulatory approvals for the construction of homes; (iv) the condition of the real estate market and general economic conditions; (v) the cyclical nature of the homebuilding industry; (vi) prevailing interest rates and the availability of mortgage financing; (vii) pricing policies of the Company's competitors; (viii) the timing of the opening of new residential projects; (ix) weather; and (x) the cost and availability of materials and labor. The Company's historical financial performance is not necessarily a meaningful indicator of future results and the Company expects its financial results to vary from project to project from quarter to quarter. Year 2000 Readiness Disclosure The company has assessed and is continuing to assess its operating systems, computer software applications, computer equipment and other equipment with embedded electronic circuits ("Programs") that it currently used to identify whether they are year 2000 compliant and, if not, what steps are needed to bring them into compliance. The Company expects that the majority of all Programs, including computer information systems utilized in its homebuilding and residential lot development operations, will be year 2000 compliant by the end of the second quarter of calendar 1999. For those Programs that will not be compliant by them, the Company is reviewing the potential impact on the Company and the alternatives that are available to it if the Programs cannot be brought into compliance by December 31, 1999. The Company believes that the required changes to its Programs will be made on a timely basis without causing material operational issues or having a material impact on its results of operations or its financial position. The Company believes that, should a reasonably likely worst case Year 2000 situation occur, the Company, because of the basic nature of its systems, many of which can be executed manually, would not likely suffer material loss or disruption in remedying the situation. The costs incurred and expected to be incurred in the future regarding Year 2000 compliance have been and are expected to be immaterial to the results of operation and financial position of the Company. Costs related to Year 2000 compliance are expensed as incurred. The Company has been reviewing whether its significant subcontractors, suppliers, financial institutions and other service providers ("Providers") are Year 2000 compliant. The Company is not aware of any Providers that do not expect to be compliant; however, the Company has no means of ensuring that its Providers will be Year 2000 ready. The inability of Providers to be Year 2000 ready in a timely fashion could have an adverse impact on the Company. The Company plans to respond to any such contingency involving any of its Providers by seeking to utilize alternative sources for such goods and services, where practicable. In addition, widespread disruptions in the national or international economy, including, for example, disruptions affecting financial markets, commercial and investment banks, governmental agencies and utility services, such as heat, lights, power and telephones, could also have an adverse impact on the Company. The likelihood and effects of such disruptions are not determinable at this time Item 3. Changes in Information about Market Risk No disclosure required. Part II. Other Information Item 1.
