___________________
(1)
Expenses maintained at the corporate level consist primarily of interest and property taxes, which are capitalized and amortized to cost of sales or expensed directly, and the expenses related to operating the Company’s corporate office. The amortization of capitalized interest and property taxes is allocated to each segment based on the segment’s cost of sales, while expenses associated with the corporate office are allocated to each segment based on the segment’s inventory balances.
(2)
The operating results of certain subsidiaries that were previously included with the Company’s homebuilding operations are now grouped together and presented as other. The operating results of these subsidiaries are immaterial for separate reporting. The prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.
