NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)
December 31, 1999
NOTE A - BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying unaudited, consolidated financial statements include the
accounts of D.R. Horton, Inc. (the "Company") and its subsidiaries. Intercompany
accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The statements
have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles
for interim financial information and the instructions to Form 10-Q and
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
only of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation
have been included. Certain reclassifications have been made in prior years'
financial statements to conform to classifications used in the current year.
Operating results for the three- month period ended December 31, 1999, are not
necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending
September 30, 2000.
Business - The Company is a national builder that is engaged primarily in the
construction and sale of single-family housing in the United States. The Company
designs, builds and sells single-family houses on lots developed by the Company
and on finished lots which it purchases, ready for home construction.
Periodically, the Company sells land or lots it has developed. The Company also
provides title agency and mortgage brokerage services to its homebuyers.
NOTE B - SEGMENT INFORMATION
The Company's financial reporting segments consist of homebuilding and financial
services. The Company's homebuilding operations comprise the most substantial
part of its business, with approximately 99% of consolidated revenues for the
three months ended December 31, 1999 and 1998. The homebuilding operations
segment generates the majority of its revenues from the sale of completed homes
with a lesser amount from the sale of land and lots. The financial services
segment generates its revenues from originating and selling mortgages and
collecting fees for title insurance agency and closing services.
NOTE C - NET INCOME PER SHARE
Basic net income per share for the three month periods ended December 31, 1999
and 1998, is based on the weighted average number of shares of common stock
outstanding. Diluted net income per share is based on the weighted average
number of shares of common stock and dilutive common stock equivalents
outstanding.
The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted earnings per
share (in thousands):
Three months ended
December 31,
--------------------
1999 1998
-------- --------
Denominator for basic earnings per share---weighted
average shares 62,650 60,110
Effect of dilutive securities:
6 7/8% convertible subordinated notes 0 1,317
Employee stock options 501 951
------- -------
Denominator for diluted earnings per share---adjusted
weighted average shares and assumed conversions 63,151 62,378
======= =======
Options to purchase 2,170,000 and 1,676,000 shares of common stock at various
prices were outstanding during the three months ended December 31, 1999 and
1998, respectively, but were not included in the computation of diluted earnings
per share because the exercise prices were greater than the average market price
of the common shares and, therefore, their effect would be antidilutive.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - CONSOLIDATED
D. R. Horton, Inc. and subsidiaries (the "Company") provide homebuilding
activities in 23 states and 40 markets through its 50 homebuilding divisions.
Through its financial services segment, the Company also provides mortgage
banking and title agency services in many of these same markets.
Three Months Ended December 31, 1999 Compared to Three Months Ended December 31,
1998
Consolidated revenues for the three months ended December 31, 1999, increased
22.4%, to $808.9 million, from $660.6 million for the comparable period of 1998,
primarily due to increases in home sales revenues.
Income before income taxes for the three months ended December 31, 1999,
increased 26.4%, to $68.6 million, from $54.3 million for the comparable period
of 1998. As a percentage of revenues, income before income taxes for the three
months ended December 31, 1999, increased 0.3%, to 8.5%, from 8.2% for the
comparable period of 1998, primarily due to the increase in gross margin
percentage achieved by the homebuilding segment.
The consolidated provision for income taxes increased 20.9%, to $26.1 million
for the three months ended December 31, 1999, from $21.6 million for the same
period of 1998, due to the corresponding increase in income before income taxes.
The effective income tax rate decreased 1.8%, to 38.0%, from 39.8% for the
comparable period of 1998, primarily due to changes in the estimated overall
effective state income tax rate.

Revenues from homebuilding activities increased 22.2%, to $797.6 million (4,492
homes closed) for the three months ended December 31, 1999, from $652.8 million
(3,846 homes closed) for the comparable period of 1998. The number of homes
closed increased in four of the Company's five market regions, with percentage
increases ranging from 107.7% in the Midwest region to 2.4% in the Mid-Atlantic
region. The number of homes closed in the Southeast region declined 0.5%. The
increases in both revenues and homes closed were due to strong housing demand,
the Company's entrance into new markets, and the increases attributable to the
acquisition of Cambridge Homes in January, 1999. In markets where the Company
operated during both fiscal years, revenues increased by 18.9%, to $727.1
million (4,234 homes closed).
The average selling price of homes closed during the three months ended December
31, 1999 was $174,200, up 9.6% from $159,000 for the same period in 1998. The
increase in average selling price was due to changes in the mix of homes closed
and increased selling prices.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
New net sales contracts increased 8.9%, to 3,851 homes for the three months
ended December 31, 1999, from 3,537 for the same period of 1998. Percentage
increases in new net sales contracts were achieved in three of the Company's
five market regions, with increases ranging from 60.1% in the Midwest region to
13.4% in the Southeast region. New net sales contracts in the Mid- Atlantic and
Southwest regions declined 0.4% and 0.7%, respectively. The overall increase in
new net sales contracts was due in part to sales achieved by Cambridge Homes.
New net sales contracts increased 3.2%, to 3,650 homes, in markets where the
Company operated in both periods. The average price of a new net sales contract
in the three months ended December 31, 1999 was $187,600, up 14.3% over the
$164,200 average in the three months ended December 31, 1998. This increase was
due to changes in the mix of homes sold and increased selling prices.
At December 31, 1999, the Company's backlog of sales contracts was $1,296.5
million (6,668 homes), up 26.9% from the comparable amount at December 31, 1998.
In markets where the Company operated during both quarters, the sales contract
backlog was $1,151.6 million (6,090 homes), up 12.7% from December 31, 1998. The
average sales price of homes in sales backlog was $194,400 at December 31, 1999,
up 14.8% from the $169,400 average at December 31, 1998. The average sales price
of homes in backlog typically is higher than the sales price of closed homes
because it takes longer to construct more expensive homes.
Cost of sales increased by 21.8%, to $646.6 million for the three months ended
December 31, 1999, from $530.8 million for the comparable quarter in 1998. The
increase in cost of sales was primarily attributable to the increase in
revenues. Cost of home sales as a percentage of home sales revenues was up 0.5%,
to 81.3% for the three months ended December 31, 1999, from 80.8% for the
comparable period of 1998. Cost of land/lot sales decreased to 71.1% of land/lot
sales revenues for the three months ended December 31, 1999, from 89.4% for the
comparable period of 1998. Total homebuilding cost of sales was 81.1% of total
homebuilding revenues, down 0.2% from 81.3% for the comparable period of 1998.
Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses from homebuilding activities
increased by 19.9%, to $82.7 million in the three months ended December 31,
1999, from $68.9 million in the comparable period of 1998. As a percentage of
revenues, SG&A expenses decreased to 10.3% for the three months ended December
31, 1999, from 10.6% for the comparable period of 1998. The decrease in SG&A
expenses as a percentage of revenue is primarily due to the Company's cost
containment efforts and the increased revenues that absorb the fixed elements of
overhead.
Interest expense associated with homebuilding activities increased to $3.3
million in the three months ended December 31, 1999, from $2.8 million in the
comparable period of 1998. As a percentage of homebuilding revenues,
homebuilding interest expense was 0.4% in both periods. The Company follows a
policy of capitalizing interest only on inventory under construction or
development. During both periods, the Company expensed the portion of incurred
interest and other financing costs which could not be charged to inventory.
Capitalized interest and other financing costs are included in cost of sales at
the time of home closings.

Three Months Ended December 31, 1999 Compared to Three Months Ended December 31,
1998
Revenues from the financial services segment increased 45.8%, to $11.4 million
in the three months ended December 31, 1999, from $7.8 million in the comparable
period of 1998. The increase in financial services revenues was due to the rapid
expansion of the Company's mortgage loan and title services provided to
customers of the Company's homebuilding segment. These activities are being
expanded to additional markets served by the homebuilding segment. SG&A expenses
associated with financial services increased 60.3%, to $8.0 million in the three
months ended December 31, 1999, from $5.0 million in the comparable period of
1998. As a percentage of financial services revenues, SG&A expenses increased by
6.3%, to 70.1% in the three months ended December 31, 1999, from 63.8% in the
comparable period in 1998, due primarily to 1999 startup expenses in new markets
with limited revenues.
FINANCIAL CONDITION, LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
At December 31, 1999, the Company had available cash and cash equivalents of
$49.3 million. Inventories (including finished homes, construction in progress,
and developed residential lots and other land) at December 31, 1999, had
increased by $124.0 million since September 30, 1999, due to a general increase
in business activity and the expansion of operations in the Company's market
areas. The inventory increase was financed largely by borrowing an additional
$70 million under the revolving credit facility and by retaining earnings. As a
result, the Company's ratio of homebuilding notes payable to total capital at
December 31, 1999, was 58.0% compared to 57.7% at September 30, 1999. The
stockholders' equity to total assets ratio increased 0.7%, to 34.5% at December
31, 1999, from 33.8% at September 30, 1999.
The Company has an $825 million, unsecured revolving credit facility, consisting
of a $775 million four-year revolving loan and a $50 million four-year letter of
credit facility that matures in 2002. Additionally, the Company has another $25
million standby letter of credit agreement and a $22.5 million non-renewable
letter of credit facility acquired with the Cambridge acquisition. At December
31, 1999, the Company had outstanding homebuilding debt of $1,149.5 million, of

which $465.0 million represented advances under the revolving credit facility.
Under the debt covenants associated with the revolving credit facility, at
December 31, 1999, the Company had additional borrowing capacity of $310.0
million. The Company has entered into multi- year interest rate swap agreements,
aggregating $200 million, that fix the interest rate on a portion of the
variable rate revolving credit facility. An additional interest rate swap
agreement, with a notional amount of $148.5 million, was entered into in the
three months ended December 31, 1999. The new agreement has the effect of
converting part of the Company's fixed rate debt to a variable rate which is
currently less than the related fixed rate. The new agreement helps re-establish
the Company's balance of fixed and variable rate debt at historical levels.
At December 31, 1999, the financial services segment has mortgage loans held for
sale of $95.8 million and loan commitments for $88.6 million at fixed rates. The
Company hedges the interest rate market risk on these mortgage loans held for
sale and loan commitments through the use of best-efforts whole loan delivery
commitments, mandatory forward commitments to sell mortgage-backed securities
and the purchase of options on financial instruments.
The financial services segment has a $175 million, one-year bank warehouse
facility that is secured by mortgage loans held for sale. The warehouse facility
is not guaranteed by the parent company. As of December 31, 1999, $86.6 million
had been drawn under this facility. In the future, it is anticipated that all
mortgage company activities will be financed under the warehouse facility.
The Company's rapid growth and acquisition strategy require 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 existing
credit facilities. Additionally, an effective shelf registration contains about
7.4 million shares of common stock issuable to effect, in whole or in part,
possible future acquisitions. In the future, the company intends to maintain
effective shelf registration statements that would facilitate access to the
capital markets.
During the quarter, the Company's Board of Directors declared a cash dividend of
$.03 per common share, which was paid on October 28, 1999, to stockholders of
record on October 21, 1999.
In November, 1998, the Company's Board of Directors approved stock and debt
repurchase programs for up to $100 million each. These programs are intended to
allow the Company to repurchase securities at attractive prices should favorable
market conditions occur. During the three months ended December 31, 1999, the
Company repurchased in the open market $5.4 million of its common stock, or
377,400 shares at an average cost of $14.19.
Except for ordinary expenditures for the construction of homes, the acquisition
of land and lots for development and sale of homes, at December 31, 1999, the
Company had no material commitments for capital expenditures.
