BROOKFIELD HOMES CORPORATION
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Tabular amounts in thousands of U.S. dollars except per share amounts)
Note 1. Significant Accounting Policies
(a) Basis of Presentation
Brookfield Homes Corporation (the Company or Brookfield Homes) was incorporated on August 28,
2002 as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Brookfield Properties Corporation (Brookfield Properties) to
acquire as of October 1, 2002 all of the California and Washington D.C. Area homebuilding and land
development operations (the Land and Housing Operations) of Brookfield Properties pursuant to a
reorganization of its business (the Spin-off). On January 6, 2003, Brookfield Properties
completed the Spin-off by distributing all of the issued and outstanding common stock it owned in
the Company to its common stockholders. Brookfield Homes began trading as a separate company on
the New York Stock Exchange on January 7, 2003.
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Brookfield Homes and its subsidiaries
and investments in joint ventures and variable interests in which the Company is the primary
beneficiary.
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial
information. Since they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements,
they should be read in conjunction with the Companys consolidated financial statements and
footnotes thereto included in the Companys annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December
31, 2005. In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for fair presentation of the
accompanying consolidated financial statements have been made.
The Company historically has experienced, and expects to continue to experience, variability in
quarterly results. The consolidated statements of income for the three months and six months ended
June 30, 2006 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted
in the United States of America 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.
(b) Earnings Per Share
Earnings per share is computed in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
(SFAS) 128. Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing net income by the weighted average
number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per share is calculated by
dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding including all
dilutive potentially issuable shares under various stock option plans.
(c) Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In July 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued
FASB Interpretation 48 (FIN 48), Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes, which clarifies the accounting for uncertainty
in income taxes recognized in financial statements in accordance with FASB 109, Accounting for
Income Taxes. This Interpretation provides guidance on the financial statement recognition and
measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. In addition, FIN 48
provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim
periods, disclosure, and transition. FIN 48 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December
15, 2006. The Company is currently reviewing the effect of this Interpretation on its consolidated
financial statements.
In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS 123(R), Share-Based Payment. SFAS 123(R) establishes
accounting standards for transactions in which a company exchanges its equity instruments for goods
or services. In particular, this Statement requires companies to record compensation expense for
all share-based payments, such as employee stock options, at fair market value. This Statement
became effective January 1, 2006 for the Company and did not have a material impact on its
consolidated financial statements. See Note 6, Stock-Based Compensation, for further discussion
on share-based payments.
(d) Variable Interest Entities
In December 2003, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued revised Interpretation
46 (FIN 46R), Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities (VIEs), an Interpretation of
Accounting Research Bulletin 51, Consolidated Financial Statements, which replaces the previous
version of FASB Interpretation 46 issued in January 2003 (FIN 46). The decision whether to
consolidate a VIE begins with establishing that a VIE exists. A VIE exists
when either the total equity investment at risk is not sufficient to permit the entity to finance
its activities by itself, or the
5
BROOKFIELD HOMES CORPORATION
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Tabular amounts in thousands of U.S. dollars except per share amounts)
equity investor lacks one of three characteristics associated with owning a controlling financial
interest. Those characteristics are the direct or indirect ability to make decisions about the
entitys activities through voting rights or similar rights, the obligation to absorb the expected
losses of an entity, and the right to receive the expected residual returns. The entity with the
majority of the expected losses or expected residual return is considered to be the primary
beneficiary of the entity and is required to consolidate such entity. The Company has determined
that it is the primary beneficiary of certain VIEs which are presented in these financial
statements under Consolidated land inventory not owned with the interest of others included in
Minority interest. See Notes 2 and 3 for further discussion on the consolidation of land option
contracts and joint ventures.
(e) Segment Information
The Company designs, constructs and sells a wide range of homes designed to meet the specific needs
of each of its markets. For internal reporting purposes, the Company is organized into geographical
housing and land regions. Because each of the Companys geographical housing and land regions has
similar economic characteristics, housing products and class of prospective buyers, the geographic
housing and land regions have been aggregated into a single housing and land segment in accordance
with SFAS 131, Disclosure About Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information.
(f) Reclassification
Certain prior period amounts in the consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to
conform with the June 30, 2006 presentation. In particular, Treasury Stock, Common Stock and Additional Paid-in Capital,
which were previously presented in aggregate, have been presented as separate items in the
Consolidated Balance Sheet and Consolidated Statement of Stockholders Equity.
Note 2. Housing and Land Inventory
Housing and land inventory includes homes completed, homes under construction, lots ready for
construction, model homes and land under and held for development which will be used in the
Companys homebuilding operations or sold as building lots to other homebuilders. The following summarizes the components of housing and
land inventory:

The Company capitalizes interest which is expensed as housing units and building lots are
sold. For the three months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005 and for the six months ended June 30, 2006
and 2005, interest incurred and capitalized by the Company was $13.1 million and $10.8 million,
$25.1 million and $16.6 million, respectively. Capitalized interest expensed for the same periods
was $3.6 million, $5.8 million, $6.3 million, and $8.9 million, respectively.
Capitalized costs are expensed as costs of sales on a specific identification basis or on a
relative value basis in proportion to anticipated revenue. Included in direct cost of sales is
$140.6 million and $225.3 million of costs related to housing revenue for the three and six months
ended June 30, 2006 (June 30, 2005 $165.8 million and $267.4 million) and $17.9 million and $24.9
million of costs related to land sales and other revenues (June 30, 2005 $10.7 million and $13.1
million).
In the ordinary course of business, the Company has entered into a number of option contracts to
acquire lots in the future in accordance with specific terms and conditions of such agreements. Under these option
agreements, the Company will fund deposits to secure the right to purchase land or lots at a future point in
time. The Company has evaluated its option contracts and determined that for those entities
considered to be VIEs, it is the primary beneficiary of options for 573 lots with an aggregate exercise price of $17.9 million (December 31, 2005 577
lots with an aggregate

exercise price of $22.1 million), which are required to be consolidated. In these cases, the only
asset recorded is the Companys exercise price for the option to purchase, with an increase in
minority interest of $11.0 million (December 31,
2005 $18.3 million) for the assumed third party investment in the VIE. Where the land sellers are
not required to
provide the Company financial information related to the VIE, certain assumptions by the Company
were required in its assessment as to whether or not it is the primary beneficiary.
Housing and land inventory includes non-refundable deposits and other costs totaling $90.6 million
(December 31, 2005 $58.3 million) in connection with options that are not required to be
consolidated under the provisions of FIN 46R. The total exercise price of these options is $786.3
million (December 31, 2005 $720.6 million) including the non-refundable deposits identified
above. The number of lots for which the Company has obtained an option to purchase, excluding those
already consolidated, and their respective dates of expiry and their exercise price are as follows:

The Company holds agreements for a further 3,660 acres of land that may provide upon obtaining
entitlements additional lots. However, based on the current stage of land entitlement, the Company
has concluded at this time that the level of uncertainty in entitling these properties does not
warrant including them in the above totals.
Note 3. Investments in Housing and Land Joint Ventures
The Company participates in a number of joint ventures in which it has less than a controlling
interest. Summarized condensed financial information on a combined 100% basis of the joint ventures

BROOKFIELD HOMES CORPORATION
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Tabular amounts in thousands of U.S. dollars except per share amounts)
In reporting the Companys share of net income, all inter-company profits or losses from housing
and land joint ventures are eliminated on lots purchased by the Company.
Joint ventures in which the Company has a non-controlling interest are accounted for using the
equity method. In addition, the Company has performed an evaluation of its existing joint venture
relationships by applying the provisions of FIN 46R. The Company has determined that for those
entities for which this interpretation applies, none of these joint ventures were considered to be a VIE requiring consolidation pursuant to the requirements of
FIN 46R.
The Company and/or its joint venture partners have provided varying levels of guarantees of debt in
its joint ventures. At June 30, 2006, the Company had recourse guarantees of $1.7 million (December
31, 2005 $2.0 million) and limited maintenance guarantees of $83.5 million (December 31, 2005
$91.6 million) with respect to debt in its joint ventures. As of June 30, 2006, the fair market
value of the recourse guarantees was insignificant.

BROOKFIELD HOMES CORPORATION
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Tabular amounts in thousands of U.S. dollars except per share amounts)
Prior to January 1, 2006, the Company accounted for stock option grants in accordance with APB 25.
Accordingly, the Company recorded the intrinsic value of options as a liability using variable plan
accounting. Effective January 1, 2006, the Company adopted the provisions of SFAS 123R using the
modified-prospective-transition method.
As a result of adopting SFAS 123R, the incremental charge to net income for the three and six
months ended June 30, 2006 was $0.2 million and $0.5 million, respectively. The impact of adopting
SFAS 123R on both basic and diluted earnings per share for the three months and six months ended
June 30, 2006 was an additional expense of $0.01 and $0.02 per share.
Compensation expense related to the Companys stock options during the three and six months ended
June 30, 2006 was income of $6.2 million and $3.4 million (2005 expense $2.7 million and $8.2
million). If the Company had adopted the provisions of SFAS 123R in 2005, the incremental charge to
net income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2005 would have been $0.3 million. The
impact on both basic and diluted earnings per share for the three and six months ended June 30,
2005 would have been an additional expense of $0.01 per share.
The fair value of each of the Companys stock option awards is estimated at each reporting date
using a Black-Scholes option-pricing model that uses the assumptions noted in the table below. The
fair value of the Companys stock option awards, which are subject to graded vesting, is expensed
over the vesting period of the stock options. Expected volatility is based on historical volatility
of the Companys stock. The risk-free rate for periods within the contractual life of the stock
option award is based on the yield curve of a zero-coupon U.S. Treasury bond with a maturity equal
to the expected term of the stock option award granted. The Company uses historical data to
estimate stock option exercises and forfeitures within its valuation model. The expected term of
stock option awards granted for some participants is derived from historical exercise experience
under the Companys share-based payment plan and represents the period of time that stock option
awards granted are expected to be outstanding. The expected term of stock options granted for the
remaining participants is derived by using the short cut method.
The significant weighted average assumptions relating to the valuation of the Companys stock
options for the three and six months ended June 30, 2006 were as follows:

BROOKFIELD HOMES CORPORATION
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Tabular amounts in thousands of U.S. dollars except per share amounts)
(b) When selling a home, the Companys subsidiaries provide customers with a limited warranty. The
Company estimates the costs that may be incurred under each limited warranty and records a
liability in the amount of such costs
at the time the revenue associated with the sale of each home is recognized. In addition, the
Company has insurance in place where its subsidiaries are subject to the respective warranty
statutes in the State where the Company conducts business which range up to ten years for latent
construction defects. Factors that affect the Companys warranty liability include the number of
homes sold, historical and anticipated rates of warranty claims, and cost per claim. The Company
periodically assesses the adequacy of its recorded warranty liabilities and adjusts the amounts as
necessary. The
following table reflects the changes in the Companys warranty liability for the six months ended
June 30, 2006 and 2005:

(c) The Company entered into an interest rate swap contract during the third quarter of 2004
which effectively fixes $60.0 million of the Companys variable rate debt at 5.89% until the
contract expires in 2009. At June 30, 2006, the fair market value of the contract was $2.8 million
and is included in Receivables and other assets. During the second quarter of 2005, the Company
entered into an additional interest rate swap contract which effectively fixes $50.0 million of the
Companys variable rate debt at 6.54% until the contract expires in 2010. At June 30, 2006, the
fair market value of the contract was $1.7 million and is included in Receivables and other assets.
Income of $0.9 million and $2.3 million was recognized during the three and six months ended June
30, 2006 and was included in Land and other revenues (June 30, 2005 $(2.2) million and $(0.9)
million). Both interest rate swaps are recorded at fair market value because
hedge accounting has not been applied.
(d) During the second quarter, the Company entered into an unsecured revolving credit facility with
a financial
subsidiary of the Companys largest stockholder, Brookfield Asset Management Inc., in an aggregate
principal amount
not to exceed $50.0 million. Included in Project specific and other financings is $15.0 million
related to this facility. The interest rate on this facility is LIBOR plus 2.00%.
(e) During
July 2006, the Company entered into an equity swap transaction
maturing in July 2007 at an average cost
per share of $26.72, which effectively fixes the stock compensation liability on 620,000 shares
which is included in Accounts payable and other liabilities.

Item 2. Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
This discussion includes forward-looking statements that reflect our current views with
respect to future events and financial performance and that involve risks and uncertainties. Our
actual results, performance or achievements could differ materially from those anticipated in the
forward-looking statements as a result of certain factors including risks discussed in
Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Forward-Looking Statements and Item 1A Risk Factors elsewhere in this report and in our Annual
Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2005.
Outlook
After benefiting in 2005 from increases in home prices, in 2006 we continue to experience a
slowdown in our housing markets, particularly in the San Diego and Washington D.C. Area. This
slowdown is a result of negative homebuyer sentiment and increases in resale inventories. During
these challenging times, we continue to proactively manage our assets and entitle our land options.
Overview
We design, construct and market single-family and multi-family homes primarily to move-up and
luxury homebuyers and develop land for sale to other homebuilders. Our operations are currently
focused primarily in five regional markets: San Francisco Bay Area; Southland / Los Angeles; San
Diego / Riverside; Sacramento; and the Washington D.C. Area. Our goal is to maximize the total return on our common stockholders equity over the long term. We
plan to achieve this by actively managing our assets and creating value on the lots we own or
control.
The 29,451 lots that we control, 12,466 of which we own directly or through joint ventures, provide
a strong foundation for our future homebuilding business and visibility on our future cash flow and
earnings. The lots we own directly or through joint ventures represent approximately a ten year lot
supply, based on 2006 planned home closings of 1,200 to 1,300.
Homebuilding is our primary source of revenue and has represented approximately 90% of our total
revenue since 2001. Our operations are positioned to close up to 2,000 homes annually. Operating in
markets with higher price points and catering to move-up and luxury buyers, our average sales price
for the six months ended June 30, 2006 of $695,000 was well in excess of the national average
sales price. We also sell serviced and unserviced lots to other homebuilders generally on an
opportunistic basis where we can redeploy capital to an asset providing higher returns or reduce
risk, in a market. We have previously announced the possible sale of 1,500 lots during 2006. To
date, we have closed 436 of these lots for net income of $15 million, or $0.54 per share.
In addition to our housing and land inventory and investments in housing and land joint ventures
which together comprised 87% of our total assets as of June 30, 2006, we had $75 million in cash
and cash equivalents and $87 million in other assets. Other assets consist of homebuyer receivables
of $9 million, deferred income taxes of $46 million, and mortgages and other receivables of $32
million. Homebuyer receivables consist primarily of proceeds due from homebuyers on the closing of
homes.
Since 2001, our revenues and net income have grown at compounded annual growth rates of 12% and
53%, respectively. Over the same period, we generated approximately $500 million in operating cash flow that
was used mainly to return cash to shareholders. At the same time, we believe we have positioned our
business for future growth through the selective optioning or acquisition of a significant number
of large projects and the level of lots controlled.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
There have been no significant changes to our critical accounting policies and estimates during the
three and six
months ended June 30, 2006 compared to those disclosed in Item 7, Managements Discussion and
Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included in our annual report on Form
10-K for the year ended December 31, 2005.

Three Months and Six Months Ended June 30, 2006 Compared with Three Months and Six Months
Ended June 30, 2005
Net Income
Net income was $43 million and $62 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2006, an
increase of $11 million over the same periods in 2005. The increase in net income for the three and
six months ended June 30, 2006 was primarily attributable to an increase in bulk land sales and
income from stock compensation accruals which is included in selling, general and administrative
expense offset by a lower contribution from housing operations.
Results of Operations
Housing revenues were $193 million and $315 million for the three and six months ended June 30,
2006, a decrease of $45 million and $66 million over the three and six months ended June 30, 2005,
respectively. The decrease in housing revenue for the three and six months ended June 30, 2006 was
due primarily to a decrease in home closings.
The gross margin on housing revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2006 was $53 million or
27.4% compared with $72 million or 30.2% for the same period in 2005. The gross margin on housing
revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2006, was $90 million or 28.6% compared with $113
million or 29.9% for the same period in 2005. The decrease in the gross margin percentage is due to
a lower percentage of home closings in San Diego and the Washington D.C. Area where our housing
margins are currently higher as we are building on land that we entitled and developed.
Land and other revenues totaled $39 million for the three months ended June 30, 2006, an increase
of $24 million over the three months ended June 30, 2005. For the six months ended June 30, 2006,
land and other revenues were $60 million, an increase of $36 million over the same period in 2005.
The increase in land and other revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2006 was primarily due
to the bulk sale of 322 lots for revenue of $33 million. Our land revenues may vary significantly
from period to period due to the timing and the nature of land sales, as they generally occur on an
opportunistic basis.
The gross margin on land and other revenues for the three and six months ended June 30, 2006 was
$21 million and $35 million compared with $4 million and $11 million for the same periods in 2005.
The increase for the three months is due to the bulk sale of 322 lots which contributed $17 million
to our gross margin.
Equity in earnings from housing and land joint ventures for the three months ended June 30, 2006
was $1 million, a decrease of $1 million, over the three months ended June 30, 2005. For the six
months ended June 30, 2006, equity in earnings from housing and land joint ventures was $2 million,
a decrease of $7 million over the same period in 2005. The decrease in earnings was primarily a
result of the bulk sale of 41 lots during the six months ended June 30, 2005 in Southern California
held in a joint venture, which contributed earnings of $5 million.
Other Expenses
Selling, general and administrative expense was $2 million and $20 million for the three months
ended June 30, 2006 and 2005 and $21 million and $41 million for the six months ended June 30, 2006
and 2005. These expenses normally vary with the level of housing revenues, however for the three
months ending June 30, 2006, selling, general and administrative expense decreased significantly as
it includes stock compensation income of $15 million as a result of a 36% reduction in our share
price during the quarter compared to an expense for stock compensation of $5 million for the same
period in 2005.
Sales Activity
Net new orders for the quarter ended June 30, 2006 totaled 255 units. The Companys current
estimated range of home closings for the year ending December 31, 2006 is 1,200 to 1,300 homes, a
decrease of between 18% and 24% when compared to the home closings for the year ended December 31,
2005. The decline in net new orders continues to be primarily in the San Diego / Riverside and
Washington D.C. markets with 257 fewer net new orders, when compared to the second quarter of 2005.
The decline in net new orders results from an overall more competitive market environment as resale
inventories increase and potential homebuyers take a wait and see approach.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Financial Position
Our total assets as of June 30, 2006 were $1,246 million, a decrease of $84 million compared to
December 31, 2005. The decrease is due primarily to decreases in cash and cash equivalents and in
receivables and other assets, partially offset by an increase in housing and land inventory.
Our total debt as of June 30, 2006 was $681 million, a decrease of $10 million compared to December
31, 2005. Total debt as of June 30, 2006 consisted mainly of project specific financings, which
represent construction and development loans that are repaid from home and lot sales proceeds. As
new homes are constructed, further loan facilities are arranged on a rolling basis. Our major
project specific lenders are Bank of America, Housing Capital
Corporation, Wells Fargo Bank and Union Bank of California. Other debt comprises deferred compensation on which
interest is paid at prime, loans outstanding relating to mortgages we originated that are repaid
when the underlying mortgages are sold to permanent lenders, and a promissory note due to a
subsidiary of our largest stockholder, Brookfield Asset Management Inc. As of June 30, 2006, the
average interest rate on our debt was 8.2%, with maturities as follows:

Cash Flow
Our principal uses of working capital include purchases of land, land development and home
construction. Cash flows for each of our communities depend upon the applicable stage of the
development cycle and can differ substantially from reported earnings. Early stages of development
require significant cash outlays for land acquisitions, site approvals and entitlements,
construction of model homes, roads, certain utilities and other amenities and general landscaping.
Because these costs are capitalized, income reported for financial statement purposes during such
early stages may significantly exceed cash flow. Later, cash flow can significantly exceed earnings
reported for financial statement purposes, as cost of sales includes charges for substantial
amounts of previously expended costs. A summary of lots owned and their stage of development at
June 30, 2006 compared with the same period last year follows:

Cash used in our operating activities during the six months ended June 30, 2006 was $48
million compared with cash used of $32 million for the same period in 2005. We normally invest capital in the first half
of a year as we build out our backlog of homes. We also purchased over 900 lots previously held
under option for $27 million which was offset by proceeds on the bulk sale of 322 lots of $33
million.
Cash used in our investing activities in joint ventures for the six months ended June 30, 2006 was
$12 million, compared with cash provided of $19 million for the same period in 2005. The decrease
in joint venture cash flow when comparing the six months ended June 30, 2006 to the six months
ended June 30, 2005 is primarily a result of a bulk sale of 41 lots during 2005 in Southern
California.
Cash used
by our financing activities for six months ended June 30, 2006 was $63 million compared with cash provided of $2 million for the same period in 2005. The decrease in cash flow is
primarily due to an increase in share repurchases and repayment of debt.
14
Contractual Obligations and Other Commitments
Our contractual obligations and other commitments have not changed materially from those reported
in Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Conditions and Results of Operations in our
Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2005.
We generally fund the development of our communities through the use of project specific
financings. As of June 30, 2006, we had available project specific debt lines of $279 million that
were available to complete land development and construction activities.
A total of $607 million of our project specific and other financings mature prior to the end of
2007. The high level of maturities in 2006 and 2007 is due to our expected project completions over
this period. Although the level of our short term maturing debt is high, we expect to generate
sufficient cash flow from our assets in 2006 and 2007 to repay these obligations. Our net debt to
total capitalization ratio as of June 30, 2006, which is defined as total interest-bearing debt,
less cash, divided by total interest-bearing debt less cash plus stockholders equity and minority
interest, was 64% compared to 61% at December 31, 2005. For a description of the specific risks
facing us if, for any reason, we are unable to meet these obligations, refer to the section of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the
year ended December 31, 2005 entitled Risk Factors Our Debt and Leverage Could Adversely Affect
our Financial Condition.
Our project specific financings require Brookfield Homes Holdings Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary
of the Company, to maintain a tangible net worth of between $200 million and $250 million, a net
debt to capitalization ratio of no greater than 65% and a net debt to tangible net worth ratio of
no greater than 2.50 to 1. As of June 30, 2006, the Company has the capacity to fully draw its
available project specific debt lines of $279 million.
During the third quarter of 2004, we entered into an interest rate swap contract which effectively
fixes $60 million of our variable rate debt at 5.89% until the contract expires in 2009. During
the second quarter of 2005, we entered into an additional interest rate swap contract that effectively fixes $50 million of our variable rate
debt at 6.54% until the contract expires in 2010. At June 30, 2006, the fair market value of these contracts was $4.5
million.
During
July 2006, we entered into an equity swap transaction maturing
in July 2007 at an average cost per share of
$26.72, which effectively fixes our stock compensation liability on 620,000 shares.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
In the ordinary course of business, we use lot option contracts and joint ventures to acquire
control of land to mitigate the risk of declining land values. Option contracts for the purchase of
land permit us to control lots for an extended period of time, until options expire and/or we are
ready to sell the land or construct homes. This reduces our financial risk associated with land
holdings. As of June 30, 2006, we had $97 million of primarily non-refundable option deposits and
advanced costs. The total exercise price of these options is $804 million. Pursuant to FIN 46R, as
defined in Note 1 to our consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Form 10-Q, we
have consolidated $18 million of these option contracts. Please see Note 2 to our consolidated
financial statements included elsewhere in this Form 10-Q for additional information on our lot
options.
We also control 3,870 lots through joint ventures. As of June 30, 2006, our investment in housing
and land joint ventures was $65 million. We have provided varying levels of guarantees of debt in
our joint ventures. As of June 30, 2006, we had recourse guarantees of $2 million and limited
maintenance guarantees of $83 million with respect to debt in our joint ventures.
We obtain letters of credit, performance bonds and other bonds to support our obligations with
respect to the development of our projects. The amount of these obligations outstanding at any time
varies in accordance with our development activities. If these letters of credit or bonds are drawn
upon, we will be obligated to reimburse the issuer of the letter of credit or bonds. As of June 30,
2006, we had for these purposes $26 million in letters of credit outstanding
and $245 million in performance bonds. The costs to complete related to our letters of credit and
performance bonds are $22 million and $117 million, respectively. We do not believe that any of
these letters of credit or bonds are likely to be drawn upon.
15
Forward-Looking Statements
This quarterly report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the
United States federal securities laws. The words may, believe, will, anticipate, expect,
estimate, project, future, and other expressions that are predictions of or indicate future
events and trends and that do not relate to historical matters identify forward-looking statements.
The forward-looking statements in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q include, among others,
statements with respect to:
|
|
expected home closings and project completions and the timing thereof; |
|
|
targeted lot sales and the proceeds thereof; |
|
|
estimates of revenues and cash flows; |
|
|
the visibility on our future cash flow and earnings; |
|
|
sources of future growth; |
|
|
the effect of interest rate changes on our cash flows; |
|
|
the effect on our business of existing lawsuits; and |
|
|
whether or not our letters of credit or performance bonds will be drawn upon. |
Undue reliance should not be placed on forward-looking statements because they involve known and
unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors, which may cause the actual results to differ
materially from the anticipated future results expressed or implied by such forward-looking
statements. Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those set forward in
the forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to:
|
|
changes in general economic, real estate and other conditions; |
|
|
availability of suitable undeveloped land at acceptable prices; |
|
|
adverse legislation or regulation; |
|
|
ability to obtain necessary permits and approvals for the development of our land; |
|
|
availability of labor or materials or increases in their costs; |
|
|
ability to develop and market our master-planned communities successfully; |
|
|
confidence levels of consumers; |
|
|
ability to raise capital on favorable terms; |
|
|
adverse weather conditions and natural disasters; |
|
|
relations with the residents of our communities; |
|
|
risks associated with increased insurance costs or unavailability of adequate coverage; |
|
|
ability to obtain surety bonds; |
|
|
competitive conditions in the homebuilding industry, including product and pricing pressures; and |
|
|
additional risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond our control, referred to in our Form
10-K for the year ended December 31, 2005 and our other SEC filings. |
We undertake no obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statements unless required by
law, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. However, any further
disclosures made on related subjects in subsequent reports on Forms 10-K, 10-Q and 8-K should be
consulted.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Exchange Rates
We conduct business in U.S. dollars only, so we are not exposed to currency risks.
Interest Rates
We are exposed to financial risks that arise from the fluctuations in interest rates. Our interest
bearing assets and liabilities are mainly at floating rates, so we would be negatively affected, on
balance, if interest rates increase. In addition, we have an interest rate swap contract which
effectively fixes $60 million of our variable rate debt at 5.89% and an interest rate swap contract
which effectively fixes $50 million of our variable interest rate debt at 6.54%. Based on our net
debt levels as of June 30, 2006, a 1% change up or down in interest rates would have either a
negative or positive effect of approximately $5 million on our cash flows.
16
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures. As of the end of our fiscal quarter ended
June 30, 2006, an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as
defined in Rules 13a 15(e) and 15d 15(e) of the United States Securities Exchange Act of 1934
(the Exchange Act)) was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief
Executive Officer (CEO) and Chief Financial Officer (CFO). Based upon that evaluation, the CEO
and CFO have concluded that as of the end of such fiscal quarter, our disclosure controls and
procedures are effective: (i) to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports
that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported
within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms; and
(ii) to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that we file or submit
under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our CEO and
CFO, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
It should be noted that while our management, including the CEO and CFO, believe our disclosure
controls and procedures provide a reasonable level of assurance that such controls and procedures
are effective, they do not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or internal controls
will prevent all error and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived or operated,
can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are
met.
There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended June
30, 2006, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal
control over financial reporting.
PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
We are party to various legal actions arising in the ordinary course of our business. We
believe that none of these actions, either individually or in the aggregate, will have a material
adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
There have been no material changes in our risk factors from those disclosed in our Annual
Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2005.
Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds
Our Board of Directors approved a share repurchase program that allows us to repurchase in
aggregate up to $109 million of our outstanding common shares. Since the initial approval of the
program in February 2003, the following annual share repurchases have been made under the program:
2003 1,192,749 shares at an average price of $18.19; 2004 76,400 shares at an average price of
$25.39; 2005 707,500 shares at an average price of $47.81. In addition, during the first six
months of 2006 we repurchased 914,200 shares at an average price of $40.08. At June 30, 2006, the
remaining amount approved for repurchases was $15 million, which was subsequently increased to $50
million by our Board of Directors on July 20, 2006. Separately, during the fourth quarter of 2005
we repurchased 3,000,000 of our shares through a fixed price tender offer at a purchase price of
$55.00 per share.
