                               PULTE CORPORATION
             NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                               ($000's omitted)
                                  (Unaudited)

1.      Basis of presentation and significant accounting policies

        Basis of presentation

        The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts
        of Pulte Corporation (the Company), and all of its significant
        subsidiaries. The Company's continuing operations include its
        homebuilding (Pulte Home Corporation) and financial services
        subsidiaries, which include ICM Mortgage Corporation (ICM) and Pulte
        Financial Companies, Inc. (PFCI). The Company's thrift subsidiary,
        First Heights Bank, fsb (First Heights), has been classified as
        discontinued operations (See Note 2). The Company's direct
        subsidiaries consist of PFCI and Pulte Diversified Companies, Inc.
        (PDCI). PDCI's direct subsidiaries are Pulte Home Corporation (Pulte)
        and First Heights. ICM is a direct subsidiary of Pulte.

        The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements
        have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
        principles for interim financial information and with the instructions
        to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do
        not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally
        accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In
        the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal
        recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have
        been included. Operating results for the six month period ended June
        30, 1996 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be
        expected for the year ended December 31, 1996. These financial
        statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's
        consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in
        the Registrant Company and Subsidiaries' annual report on Form 10-K
        for the year ended December 31, 1995.

        Certain 1995 classifications have been changed to conform with the
        1996 presentation.

2.      Discontinued operations

        The following table summarizes selected financial data of the
        Company's discontinued thrift operation:

        Discounts of approximately $6,400 at June 30, 1996, are being
        amortized into income over the life of the related FSLIC Resolution
        Fund notes at a rate of approximately $1,200 per quarter. Additional
        contingent gains related to possible income tax benefits, which could
        amount to $90,000, have not been recognized for financial statement
        purposes because of uncertainty of realization.

5.      Commitments and contingencies

        Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation

        On July 7, 1995, a lawsuit was filed in the United States District
        Court, Eastern District of Michigan, by the Federal Deposit Insurance
        Corporation (FDIC) against the Company and its subsidiary PDCI and
        PDCI's subsidiary First Heights.

        The lawsuit seeks a declaration of rights under the assistance
        agreement entered into between First Heights and the Federal Savings
        and Loan Insurance Corporation (FSLIC). The FDIC is the successor to
        FSLIC. The FDIC and Pulte disagree about the proper interpretation of
        provisions in the assistance agreement which provide for sharing of
        certain tax benefits achieved in connection with First Heights' 1988
        acquisition and ownership of five failed Texas thrifts from the FSLIC.
        The lawsuit also includes certain other claims relating to the
        foregoing, including claims resulting from the Company's and First
        Heights' amendment of a tax sharing and allocation agreement between
        the Company and First Heights. The Company disputes the FDIC's claims
        and believes that a proper interpretation of the assistance agreement
        limits the FDIC's participation in the tax benefits to amounts
        established on First Heights' books.

        On September 8, 1995, the Company filed an answer and counter-claim in
        this case. The Company intends to vigorously defend itself and pursue
        its counter-claims. While it is impossible to verify the precise
        amount requested by the FDIC at this time, the Company believes that
        even if the FDIC were to prevail in its claims, it would not have a
        material adverse effect on the financial condition or results of
        operations of the Company.

6.      Supplemental Guarantor Information

        The Company previously filed a universal shelf registration of up to
        $250,000 of debt or equity securities of which $125,000 of 7.3%
        unsecured Senior Notes were issued in October, 1995. In addition, the
        Company has previously issued $100,000 of 7%, and $115,000 of 8.375%
        unsecured Senior Notes. Such obligations to pay principal, premium, if
        any, and interest are guaranteed jointly and severally on a senior
        basis by Pulte, all of Pulte's wholly-owned homebuilding subsidiaries
        and Builders' Supply & Lumber Co., Inc. which is a Pulte wholly-owned
        subsidiary (collectively, the Guarantors). Such guarantees are full
        and unconditional. The principal non-Guarantors include PDCI, the
        parent company of Pulte, ICM, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Pulte,
        First Heights, and PFCI. See Note 1 for additional information on the
        Company's Guarantor and non-Guarantor subsidiaries.

</TABLE>

For the three and six month periods ended June 30, 1996, pre-tax income (loss)
changed from the comparable periods of 1995 as follows:

o       Pre-tax income of the Company's homebuilding operations increased by
        $11,069 and $21,437, respectively, over the comparable periods of
        1995. Such increases are primarily the result of the increased volume
        of unit settlements during 1996, coupled with an improving gross
        profit margin, partially offset by a leveraged increase in selling,
        general and administrative expenses.

o       Pre-tax income of the Company's mortgage banking operations decreased
        $2,150 and $7,924, respectively, from the comparable periods of 1995.
        This is principally related to gains from the sale of core servicing
        rights which aggregated $3,153 and $10,148, respectively, for the
        three and six month periods ended June 30, 1995. No core sales
        occurred during 1996. The absence of gains from core sales during 1996
        was in part offset by an increase in marketing gains and the
        capitalization of mortgage servicing rights which began on July 1,
        1995, with the implementation of Statement of Financial Accounting
        Standards (SFAS) No. 122, Accounting for Mortgage Servicing Rights.

o       Pre-tax income from the Company's financing activities increased by
        $5,722 and $9,818, respectively, over the comparable periods of 1995
        primarily due to gains from the sales of collateral during 1996.

o       Pre-tax loss from corporate operations increased $3,066 and $2,440,
        respectively, from the comparable periods of 1995. Such increases are
        primarily related to higher net interest expense, but were also
        influenced by the timing of joint venture foreign currency gains or
        losses from the Company's Mexico operations during 1995.

  Homebuilding Operations (continued):

  Pulte conducts its domestic homebuilding operations through 40 markets in 24
  states and Puerto Rico which are organized into four operating companies -
  Pulte Home North (PHN), Pulte Home South (PHS), Pulte Home Central (PHC) and
  Pulte Home West (PHW). No one individual market within the 40 markets
  represented more than 10% of total Pulte net new orders, unit settlements or
  revenues during the three and six month periods ended June 30, 1996.

  Net new orders during the second quarter of 1996 decreased approximately 2%
  from the record set during the second quarter of 1995, which was a 45%
  increase over the same period in 1994. While all operating companies
  experienced slowdowns in net new order activity during the quarter, only PHC
  recorded a decrease in units compared with the quarter ended June 30, 1995.
  The declining trend in net new order rates, which has continued to date into
  the third quarter, was due primarily to the effect of a rising interest rate
  environment.

  For the six months ended June 30, 1996, net new orders have increased 14%
  over the comparable prior year period due to the strong order activity
  experienced in the first four months of 1996. Both existing and new markets
  have contributed to the positive year-to-date net new order comparisons.

  Settlements during the three and six month periods ended June 30, 1996
  increased 20% and 26%, respectively, over the comparable periods in 1995,
  with all operating companies recording positive comparisons over the prior
  year. Settlement activity was supported by a record backlog at December 31,
  1995, as well as the strong net new order activity during the first four
  months of 1996.

  The average selling price during the three month period ended June 30, 1996
  was $160, an increase from the average selling price of $156 in the
  comparable period of the prior year and $151 recorded during the three month
  period ended March 31, 1996. The increase in average selling price was due
  primarily to product mix, as PHN and PHC had settlements on higher priced
  product.

  Gross profit margins were 14.4% and 14.5% for the three and six month
  periods ended June 30, 1996, respectively, compared with 14.0% and 14.2%,
  respectively, in the similar periods of the prior year. During the first six
  months of 1995, the Company's gross profit margins were impacted by
  competitive market conditions and excess industry inventory levels. The
  level of demand for new housing experienced during the second half of 1995
  and the first four months of 1996, especially in certain PHS and PHC
  markets, resulted in improved gross profit margins for the first six months
  of 1996 as compared to similar periods in 1995. However, the recent slowdown
  in order growth, together with higher interest rates and heightened
  competition in the Company's markets, is expected to challenge the Company's
  ability to achieve continued improvement in profit margins during the last
  six months of 1996 over the comparable periods of 1995 and the preceding
  periods of 1996.

  Selling, general and administrative expenses for the three and six month
  periods ended June 30, 1996 increased $5,636 and $12,714, respectively, over
  the comparable periods in 1995. However, these expenses have been better
  leveraged as a result of increased operating efficiencies in both new and
  existing markets and increased unit settlements in the Company's new
  markets. Selling, general and administrative expense as a percent of revenue
  was 9% for the three month period ended June 30, 1996, compared with 9.8% in
  the comparable period of 1995. For the first six months of 1996, selling,
  general and administrative expense was 10.3% of revenue, compared with 11.4%
  in the first six months of 1995.

  Other expense, net, includes gains on land sales, the pre-tax results of
  Builders' Supply & Lumber Co., Inc. (BSL) and other homebuilding-related
  expenses. Other expense, net, for the six month period ended June 30, 1996
  was favorably impacted by improved results for BSL compared to the same
  period a year ago.

  Homebuilding Operations (continued):

  On July 2, 1996, the Company announced that it had acquired certain assets
  of North Florida Classic Homes of Jacksonville, Florida, which consisted of
  land and homes under construction in 12 residential communities, as well as
  the right to use the "North Florida Classic Homes" name in the Company's
  homebuilding operations.

</TABLE>

Mortgage origination volume for the three and six month periods ended June
30, 1996 increased 5% and 8%, respectively, compared to the comparable 1995
periods. The volume of originations (funded and non-funded) for Pulte
customers increased by 23% and 28%, respectively, during the three and six
month periods ended June 30, 1996, compared with the similar periods of
1995, as ICM continued its emphasis on expanding in Pulte's existing and new
markets. ICM continues to hedge its mortgage pipeline in the normal course
of its business and there has been no change in ICM's strategy or use of
derivative financial instruments in this regard.

During the three and six month periods ended June 30, 1996, pricing and
marketing gains increased by $4,602 and $9,539, respectively, compared with
the same periods of 1995. Effective July 1, 1995, ICM adopted SFAS No. 122
which requires that the costs associated with originating mortgage servicing
rights be recognized as an asset, shifting the gains from sale of servicing
rights to sale of mortgage loans.

Financial Services Operations (continued):

Mortgage Banking Operations (continued):

During the three and six month periods ended June 30, 1995, ICM recorded
pre-tax gains on sales of its core mortgage servicing portfolio of $3,153
and $10,148, respectively. In addition, as part of its normal operations,
during the three and six month periods ended June 30, 1995, ICM recorded
gains on sale of non-core mortgage servicing rights of $2,881 and $5,173,
respectively. The sale of the core mortgage servicing portfolio and the
ongoing sale of servicing rights on a flow basis are the result of
repositioning ICM to concentrate on its primary business of providing
mortgage financing for Pulte's homebuyers. ICM expects to continue to sell
mortgage servicing rights as part of normal operations on a three to five
month lag from the time of origination.

Servicing fee income for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 1996
decreased from the comparable 1995 periods due to the sale of the core
mortgage servicing portfolio discussed above. Mortgage origination fees also
decreased due to a decrease in the amount of non-funded originations
compared with the prior year.

Net interest income decreased by $772 for the six months ended June 30,
1996, compared with the first six months of 1995, primarily due to dividends
paid by ICM to its parent, Pulte, during the first quarters of 1996 and
1995. The result of the dividends is an increased leverage position,
incurring higher interest expense and reducing net interest income. In the
three month period ended June 30, 1996, net interest income decreased by
$30, as the effect of the dividend payments was offset by higher loan
production and an increased interest rate spread compared with the quarter
ended June 30,1995.

At June 30, 1996, loan application backlog was $439,000 compared with
$472,000 at June 30, 1995 and $334,000 at December 31, 1995.

Financing Activities:

The Company's secured financing operations are conducted by Pulte Financial
Companies, Inc. (PFCI) through its subsidiary corporations. Prior to 1989,
the PFCI subsidiaries engaged in the acquisition of mortgage loans and
mortgage-backed securities financed principally through the issuance of
long-term bonds secured by such mortgage loans and mortgage-backed
securities. Since 1989, the PFCI subsidiaries have been liquidating their
collateral portfolios and related bonds outstanding. At June 30, 1996, two
bond series with an aggregate principal amount of $57,227 remained
outstanding. These bonds are expected to be redeemed, and the related
collateral sold, by late 1996. PFCI's pre-tax operating income was $5,815
and $10,196, respectively, for the three and six month periods ended June
30, 1996, compared with $93 and $378, respectively, for the comparable
periods in 1995. During the three and six month periods ended June 30, 1996,
PFCI recorded net gains on sales of collateral of $5,498 and $9,993,
respectively. There were no such gains in the comparable periods of 1995.
Net interest income continues to decrease as a result of lower average
outstanding balances on the collateral and bond portfolios. It is
anticipated that PFCI will complete the liquidation of its collateral
portfolios and related bonds outstanding by the end of fiscal 1996, at which
time PFCI will cease to operate.

</TABLE>
The increased loss for the three month period ended June 30, 1996 is due to
increased net interest expense as a result of the issuance of $125,000 of
7.3% unsecured Senior Notes in the fourth quarter of 1995. In addition,
during the three month period ended June 30, 1996, the Company recorded a
loss of $590 related to its Mexico operations compared with income of $472
in the comparable period of 1995, which was primarily related to the
Company's share of joint venture foreign currency gains.

For the six months ended June 30, 1996, the increased loss is due primarily
to increased net interest expense as a result of the issuance of debt
discussed above. For the six months ended June 30, 1996, the Company
recorded a loss of $626 related to its Mexico operations compared with a
loss of $1,352 in the similar period of 1995. Included in Mexico's loss for
1995 is the Company's share of joint venture foreign currency losses which
amounted to $1,022. During the three and six month periods ended June 30,
1996, there were no significant foreign currency gains or losses, as the
Mexican currency has stabilized since the fourth quarter of 1995.

Mexico operations continue to develop and expand. In January 1996, the
Company's Monterrey joint venture partner assigned its interest in the joint
venture to the Company. The Company's net investment in the Monterrey
venture is carried at approximately $5,400 as of June 30, 1996. The Company
intends to liquidate the Monterrey assets in the normal course of business.
During the quarter ended March 31, 1996, the Company's Juarez joint venture
began recording its first unit closings. The Company's net investment in the
Juarez joint venture is carried at approximately $4,000 as of June 30, 1996.
On June 18,1996, the Company announced that its Juarez joint venture has
entered into an agreement with Delphi Automotive Systems, a division of
General Motors Corporation, to construct up to 6,000 homes in Mexico for
GM's employees. The Company has guaranteed the performance of its joint
venture under this agreement. The Juarez joint venture will build the homes
in Northern Mexico over a three-year period which is expected to begin in
August 1997.

Liquidity and Capital Resources:

Continuing Operations:

The Company believes it has adequate financial resources and sufficient
credit facilities to meet its current working capital needs. Sources of the
Company's working capital include its cash, its $250,000 committed unsecured
revolving credit facility, the remaining outstanding balance of $22,405 of
Pulte's previously issued unsecured Senior Subordinated Debentures, due
1999, the Company's $100,000, 7% unsecured Senior Notes, due 2003, the
Company's $115,000, 8.375% unsecured Senior Notes, due 2004 and the
Company's $125,000, 7.3% unsecured Senior Notes, due 2005. In addition, the
Company has other committed and uncommitted credit lines, which at June 30,
1996 consisted of $10,000 and $250,000 related to Pulte and ICM operations,
respectively. During 1996, management anticipates that homebuilding and
corporate working capital requirements will be funded with internally
generated funds and the previously mentioned debt.

Liquidity and Capital Resources (continued):

Continuing Operations (continued):

In addition, the Company has on file with the Securities and Exchange
Commission a universal shelf registration which provides for up to an
additional $125,000 of debt or equity securities.

The Company finances its land acquisitions, development and construction
activities from internally generated funds and existing credit agreements.
There were no borrowings under the Company's $250,000 unsecured revolving
credit facility during the six month period ended June 30, 1996. The
Company's mortgage banking subsidiary (ICM) provides mortgage financing for
many of its home sales. ICM uses its own funds and borrowings made
available pursuant to various committed and uncommitted credit arrangements
which, at June 30, 1996 amounted to $250,000, an amount deemed adequate to
cover foreseeable needs. There were approximately $91,575 of borrowings
outstanding under the $250,000 (ICM) arrangement at June 30, 1996. Mortgage
loans originated by ICM are subsequently sold, principally to outside
investors. The Company anticipates that there will be adequate mortgage
financing available for purchasers of its homes.

The following table depicts the status of the Company's share repurchase
program as of June 30, 1996:

</TABLE>

On July 1, 1996, the Board of Directors authorized the repurchase by the
Company of up to an additional 1,000,000 shares under this repurchase
program. During July 1996, the Company has repurchased 904,700 shares
relating to the third and fourth share repurchase authorizations at an
aggregate repurchase price of $22,403.

Discontinued Operations:

The Company's income taxes have been significantly impacted by its thrift
operations, principally because payments received from FSLIC Resolution Fund
(FRF) are exempt from federal income taxes.

The Company's thrift assets are subject to regulatory restrictions and are
not available for general corporate purposes. The final liquidation and
wind-down of the Company's thrift operations is dependent on the final
resolution of outstanding matters with the Federal Deposit Insurance
Corporation (FDIC), manager of FRF. The Company is currently negotiating
with the FDIC and is involved in litigation with the FDIC. Although there is
no certainty as to the time of resolution, the Company believes that this
matter may be resolved within the next twelve months. At June 30, 1996, the
Company had a remaining investment in First Heights of approximately
$30,300.
