The aggregate market value of the Common Stock of The Ryland Group, Inc., held
by non-affiliates of the registrant (14,624,082 shares) as of March 2, 1998,
was $409,474,296. The number of shares of common stock of The Ryland Group,
Inc., outstanding on March 2, 1998, was 14,820,217.
The purpose of this amendment is to restate the Financial Data Schedules for
the year-ended 1995, the three months ended March 31, 1996, the six months ended
June 30, 1996, the nine months ended September 30, 1996, the year-ended 1996,
the three months ended March 31,1997, the six months ended June 30, 1997, and
the nine months ended September 30,1997. The Financial Data Schedules are being
restated in compliance with Regulation S-K Item 601 ( c )(2)(iii) which requires
the amounts previously submitted in Financial Data Schedules to be restated if
there is a change in accounting principle. In 1997, the Company adopted
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128 (FASB 128), "Earnings per
Share." FASB 128 replaced the calculation of primary and fully diluted earnings
per share with basic and diluted earnings per share. Unlike primary earnings
per share, basic earnings per share excludes any dilutive effects of options,
warrants and convertible securities. Diluted earnings per share is very similar
to the previously reported fully diluted earnings per share. Earnings per
share amounts for the respective periods mentioned above have been restated in
the Financial Data Schedules attached hereto as Exhibit 27 to conform to the
FASB 128 requirements.
