Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

(unaudited)


(1)	Basis of Presentation

Basis of Consolidation

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Lennar Corporation and all subsidiaries, partnerships and other entities in which Lennar Corporation has a controlling interest and VIEs (see Note 16) in which Lennar Corporation is deemed to be the primary beneficiary (the “Company”). The Company’s investments in both unconsolidated entities in which a significant, but less than controlling, interest is held and in VIEs in which the Company is not deemed to be the primary beneficiary, are accounted for by the equity method. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. The condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information, 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 GAAP for complete financial statements. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended November 30, 2013. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) necessary for the fair presentation of the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been made.

The Company has historically experienced, and expects to continue to experience, variability in quarterly results. The condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three months ended February 28, 2014 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

Reclassifications

Certain prior year amounts in the condensed consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform with the 2014 presentation. These reclassifications had no impact on the Company's results of operations. As a result of the Company's change in reportable segments in the Company's Form 10-K for the year ended November 30, 2013 to include Lennar Multifamily, the Company revised the presentation of certain prior year amounts in the condensed consolidated financial statements to conform with the 2014 presentation.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.


(2)	Operating and Reporting Segments

The Company’s operating segments are aggregated into reportable segments, based primarily upon similar economic characteristics, geography and product type. The Company’s reportable segments consist of:

(1) Homebuilding East

(2) Homebuilding Central

(3) Homebuilding West

(4) Homebuilding Southeast Florida

(5) Homebuilding Houston

(6) Lennar Financial Services

(7) Rialto Investments

(8) Lennar Multifamily

Information about homebuilding activities in states which are not economically similar to other states in the same geographic area is grouped under “Homebuilding Other,” which is not considered a reportable segment.

Evaluation of segment performance is based primarily on operating earnings (loss) before income taxes. Operations of the Company’s homebuilding segments primarily include the construction and sale of single-family attached and detached homes, as well as the purchase, development and sale of residential land directly and through the Company’s unconsolidated entities. Operating earnings (loss) for the homebuilding segments consist of revenues generated from the sales of homes and land, equity in earnings (loss) from unconsolidated entities and other income (expense), net, less the cost of homes sold and land sold, selling, general and administrative expenses and other interest expense of the segment.

The Company’s reportable homebuilding segments and all other homebuilding operations not required to be reported separately have operations located in:

East: Florida⁽¹⁾, Georgia, Maryland, New Jersey, North Carolina, South Carolina and Virginia

Central: Arizona, Colorado and Texas⁽²⁾

West: California and Nevada

Southeast Florida: Southeast Florida

Houston: Houston, Texas

Other: Illinois, Minnesota, Oregon, Tennessee and Washington

(1)Florida in the East reportable segment excludes Southeast Florida, which is its own reportable segment.

(2)Texas in the Central reportable segment excludes Houston, Texas, which is its own reportable segment.

Operations of the Lennar Financial Services segment include primarily mortgage financing, title insurance and closing services for both buyers of the Company’s homes and others. The Lennar Financial Services segment sells substantially all of the loans it originates within a short period in the secondary mortgage market, the majority of which are sold on a servicing released, non-recourse basis. After the loans are sold, the Company retains potential liability for possible claims by purchasers that it breached certain limited industry-standard representations and warranties in the loan sale agreements. Lennar Financial Services’ operating earnings consist of revenues generated primarily from mortgage financing, title insurance and closing services, less the cost of such services and certain selling, general and administrative expenses incurred by the segment. The Lennar Financial Services segment operates generally in the same states as the Company’s homebuilding operations, as well as in other states.

Operations of the Rialto Investments (“Rialto”) segment include raising, investing and managing third party capital, originating and securitizing commercial mortgage loans, as well as investing its own capital in real estate related mortgage loans, properties and related securities. Rialto utilizes its vertically-integrated investment and operating platform to underwrite, diligence, acquire, manage, workout and add value to diverse portfolios of real estate loans, properties and securities, as well as providing strategic real estate capital. Rialto’s operating earnings consist of revenues generated primarily from accretable interest income associated with portfolios of real estate loans acquired in partnership with the FDIC and other portfolios of real estate loans and assets acquired, gains from securitization transactions and interest income from the new Rialto Mortgage Finance ("RMF") business, asset management, due diligence and underwriting fees derived from the segment's investments in the real estate investment funds managed by the Rialto segment, fees for sub-advisory services, other income (expense), net, consisting primarily of gains upon foreclosure of real estate owned (“REO”) and gains on sale of REO, and equity in earnings (loss) from unconsolidated entities, less the costs incurred by the segment for managing portfolios, costs related to RMF, REO expenses and other general and administrative expenses.

Operations of the Lennar Multifamily segment include revenues generated from the sales of land, revenue from construction activities and management fees generated from joint ventures less the cost of sales of land, expenses related to construction activities, equity in loss from unconsolidated entities and general and administrative expenses.

Each reportable segment follows the same accounting policies described in Note 1 – “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” to the consolidated financial statements in the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended November 30, 2013. Operational results of each segment are not necessarily indicative of the results that would have occurred had the segment been an independent, stand-alone entity during the periods presented.

As of February 28, 2014 and November 30, 2013, the Company’s recorded investments in Lennar Homebuilding unconsolidated entities were $689.7 million and $716.9 million, respectively, while the underlying equity in Lennar Homebuilding unconsolidated entities partners’ net assets as of February 28, 2014 and November 30, 2013 was $793.3 million and $829.5 million, respectively. The basis difference is primarily as a result of the Company buying an interest in a partner's equity in a Lennar Homebuilding unconsolidated entity at a discount to book value and contributing non-monetary assets to an unconsolidated entity with a higher fair value than book value.

In fiscal 2007, the Company sold a portfolio of land to a strategic land investment venture with Morgan Stanley Real Estate Fund II, L.P., an affiliate of Morgan Stanley & Co., Inc., in which the Company has approximately a 20% ownership interest and 50% voting rights. Due to the nature of the Company’s continuing involvement, the transaction did not qualify as a sale by the Company under GAAP; thus, the inventory has remained on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet in consolidated inventory not owned. As of both February 28, 2014 and November 30, 2013, the portfolio of land (including land development costs) of $237.2 million and $241.8 million, respectively, is also reflected as inventory in the summarized condensed financial information related to Lennar Homebuilding’s unconsolidated entities.

The Lennar Homebuilding unconsolidated entities in which the Company has investments usually finance their activities with a combination of partner equity and debt financing. In some instances, the Company and its partners have guaranteed debt of certain unconsolidated entities.

The total debt of the Lennar Homebuilding unconsolidated entities in which the Company has investments, including Lennar's maximum recourse exposure, were as follows:



(In thousands)	February 28, 2014			November 30, 2013
The Company’s net recourse exposure	$	26,909		27,496
Reimbursement agreements from partners	8,921			13,500
The Company’s maximum recourse exposure	$	35,830		40,996
Non-recourse bank debt and other debt (partner’s share of several recourse)	$	60,791		61,008
Non-recourse land seller debt or other debt	4,041			20,454
Non-recourse debt with completion guarantees	272,536			245,821

Total debt	$	469,011		450,457
The Company’s maximum recourse exposure as a % of total JV debt	8		%	9	%

In most instances in which the Company has guaranteed debt of a Lennar Homebuilding unconsolidated entity, the Company’s partners have also guaranteed that debt and are required to contribute their share of the guarantee payments. Historically, the Company has had repayment guarantees and/or maintenance guarantees. In a repayment guarantee, the Company and its venture partners guarantee repayment of a portion or all of the debt in the event of default before the lender would have to exercise its rights against the collateral. In the event of default, if the Company’s venture partner does not have adequate financial resources to meet its obligations under the reimbursement agreement, the Company may be liable for more than its proportionate share, up to its maximum recourse exposure, which is the full amount covered by the joint and several guarantee. As of both February 28, 2014 and November 30, 2013, the Company did not have any maintenance guarantees related to its Lennar Homebuilding unconsolidated entities. The maintenance guarantees only apply if the value of the collateral (generally land and improvements) is less than a specified percentage of the loan balance. If the Company is required to make a payment under a repayment or maintenance guarantee, the payment would constitute a capital contribution or loan to the Lennar Homebuilding unconsolidated entity and increase the Company’s investment in the unconsolidated entity and its share of any funds the unconsolidated entity distributes.

In connection with many of the loans to Lennar Homebuilding unconsolidated entities, the Company and its joint venture partners (or entities related to them) have been required to give guarantees of completion to the lenders. Those completion guarantees may require that the guarantors complete the construction of the improvements for which the financing was obtained. If the construction is to be done in phases, the guarantee generally is limited to completing only the phases as to which construction has already commenced and for which loan proceeds were used.

As of February 28, 2014, the fair values of the repayment guarantees and completion guarantees were not material. The Company believes that as of February 28, 2014, in the event it becomes legally obligated to perform under a guarantee of the obligation of a Lennar Homebuilding unconsolidated entity due to a triggering event under a guarantee, most of the time the collateral should be sufficient to repay at least a significant portion of the obligation or the Company and its partners would contribute additional capital into the venture. In certain instances, the Company has placed performance letters of credit and surety bonds with municipalities for its joint ventures (see Note 12).


(4)	Stockholders' Equity

The following table reflects the changes in equity attributable to both Lennar Corporation and the noncontrolling interests of its consolidated subsidiaries in which it has less than a 100% ownership interest for both the three months ended February 28, 2014 and 2013:

The Company has a stock repurchase program which permits the purchase of up to 20 million shares of its outstanding common stock. During both the three months ended February 28, 2014 and 2013, there were no repurchases of common stock under the stock repurchase program. As of February 28, 2014, 6.2 million shares of common stock could be repurchased in the future under the program.

During the three months ended February 28, 2014 and 2013, treasury stock decreased by 0.3 million and 0.5 million shares of Class A common stock, respectively, due to activity related to the Company's equity compensation plan.


(5)	Income Taxes

During the three months ended February 28, 2014, the Company had a tax provision of $45.9 million primarily related to pre-tax earnings. During the three months ended February 28, 2013, the Company had a tax benefit of $3.6 million, which included a $25.1 million reversal of its valuation allowance, partially offset by a $21.5 million tax provision primarily related to pre-tax earnings. The effective tax rate for the three months ended February 28, 2014 and 2013 was 37.02% and (6.75%), respectively. The difference in tax rate between the two periods is primarily the result of a valuation allowance reversal during the three months ended February 28, 2013.

In accordance with ASC 740, the Company evaluates its deferred tax assets quarterly to determine if adjustments to its valuation allowance are required. ASC 740 requires that companies assess whether a valuation allowance should be established based on the consideration of all available positive and negative evidence using a “more likely than not” standard with respect to whether deferred tax assets will be realized. This assessment considers, among other matters, the nature, frequency and severity of current and cumulative losses, actual earnings, forecasts of future profitability, the duration of statutory carryforward periods, the Company’s experience with loss carryforwards not expiring unused and tax planning alternatives.

As of February 28, 2014 and November 30, 2013, the Company's deferred tax assets, net included in the condensed consolidated balance sheets were $337.6 million and $376.8 million, respectively. The net deferred tax assets included a valuation allowance of $12.7 million as of both February 28, 2014 and November 30, 2013, primarily related to state net operating loss ("NOL") carryforwards that may expire due to short carryforward periods.

At February 28, 2014 and November 30, 2013, the Company had federal tax effected NOL carryforwards totaling $55.7 million and $88.1 million, respectively, that may be carried forward up to 20 years to offset future taxable income and begin to expire in 2025. At February 28, 2014 and November 30, 2013, the Company had state tax effected NOL carryforwards totaling $139.9 million and $143.6 million, respectively, that may be carried forward from 5 to 20 years, depending on the tax jurisdiction, with losses expiring between 2014 and 2033. At both February 28, 2014 and November 30, 2013, the Company had a valuation allowance of $10.6 million, respectively, against its state NOL carryforwards because the Company believes it is more likely than not that a portion of its state NOL carryforwards will not be realized due to the limited carryforward periods in certain states.

At both February 28, 2014 and November 30, 2013, the Company had $10.5 million of gross unrecognized tax benefits. At February 28, 2014, the Company had $22.3 million accrued for interest and penalties, of which $3.2 million was recorded during the three months ended February 28, 2014. At November 30, 2013, the Company had $19.1 million accrued for interest and penalties.


(6)	Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net earnings attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock or resulted in the issuance of common stock that then shared in the earnings of the Company.

All outstanding nonvested shares that contain non-forfeitable rights to dividends or dividend equivalents that participate in undistributed earnings with common stock are considered participating securities and are included in computing earnings per share pursuant to the two-class method. The two-class method is an earnings allocation formula that determines earnings per share for each class of common stock and participating securities according to dividends or dividend equivalents and participation rights in undistributed earnings. The Company’s restricted common stock (“nonvested shares”) are considered participating securities.

Basic and diluted earnings per share were calculated as follows:



	Three Months Ended
	February 28,
(In thousands, except per share amounts)	2014		2013
Numerator:
Net earnings attributable to Lennar	$	78,117	57,492

Plus: interest on 3.25% convertible senior notes due 2021 and 2.00% convertible senior notes due 2020 (1)	1,982		2,826
Plus: undistributed earnings allocated to convertible shares	842		662
Less: undistributed earnings reallocated to convertible shares	770		588
Numerator for diluted earnings per share	$	79,231	59,626
Denominator:
Denominator for basic earnings per share - weighted average common shares outstanding	201,955		189,548
Effect of dilutive securities:

Convertible senior notes	25,670		35,896
Denominator for diluted earnings per share - weighted average common shares outstanding	227,635		226,017
Basic earnings per share	$	0.38	0.30
Diluted earnings per share	$	0.35	0.26


(1)	Interest on the 2.00% convertible senior notes due 2020 is only included in the three months ended February 28, 2013 because the holders of the 2.00% convertible senior notes due 2020 converted the notes into shares of Class A common stock in November 30, 2013.

For both the three months ended February 28, 2014 and 2013, there were no options to purchase shares of Class A common stock that were outstanding and anti-dilutive.


(7)	Lennar Financial Services Segment

The assets and liabilities related to the Lennar Financial Services segment were as follows:



(In thousands)	February 28, 2014		November 30, 2013
Assets:
Cash and cash equivalents	$	56,707	73,066

Other (4)	153,967		169,473
	$	377,085	543,639


(1)	Receivables, net primarily relate to loans sold to investors for which the Company had not yet been paid as of February 28, 2014 and November 30, 2013, respectively.


(2)	Loans held-for-sale relate to unsold loans carried at fair value.


(3)	Other assets include mortgage loan commitments carried at fair value of $10.1 million and $7.3 million as of February 28, 2014 and November 30, 2013, respectively. In addition, other assets also includes forward contracts carried at fair value of $1.4 million as of November 30, 2013.


(4)	Other liabilities include $72.5 million and $74.5 million as of February 28, 2014 and November 30, 2013, respectively, of certain of the Company’s self-insurance reserves related to general liability and workers’ compensation. Other liabilities also include forward contracts carried at fair value of $4.3 million as of February 28, 2014.

At February 28, 2014, the Lennar Financial Services segment warehouse facilities were as follows:



(In thousands)	Maximum Aggregate Commitment
364-day warehouse repurchase facility that matures November 2014	$	325,000
364-day warehouse repurchase facility that matures February 2015 (1)	300,000
364-day warehouse repurchase facility that matures February 2015	150,000
Totals	$	775,000


(1)	Maximum aggregate commitment includes a $100 million accordion feature that is usable 10 days prior to quarter-end through 20 days after quarter end.

The Lennar Financial Services segment uses these facilities to finance its lending activities until the mortgage loans are sold to investors and expects the facilities to be renewed or replaced with other facilities when they mature. Borrowings under the facilities and their prior year predecessors were $223.1 million and $374.2 million at February 28, 2014 and November 30, 2013, respectively, and were collateralized by mortgage loans and receivables on loans sold to investors but not yet paid for with outstanding principal balances of $319.9 million and $452.5 million at February 28, 2014 and November 30, 2013, respectively. If the facilities are not renewed, the borrowings under the lines of credit will be paid off by selling the mortgage loans held-for-sale to investors and by collecting on receivables on loans sold but not yet paid. Without the facilities, the Lennar Financial Services segment would have to use cash from operations and other funding sources to finance its lending activities.

The Lennar Financial Services segment sells substantially all of the loans it originates within a short period in the secondary mortgage market, the majority of which are sold on a servicing released, non-recourse basis. After the loans are sold, the Company retains potential liability for possible claims by purchasers that it breached certain limited industry-standard representations and warranties in the loan sale agreements. During recent years there has been an increased industry-wide effort by purchasers to defray their losses in an unfavorable economic environment by purporting to have found inaccuracies related to sellers’ representations and warranties in particular loan sale agreements. The Company’s mortgage operations have established reserves for possible losses associated with mortgage loans previously originated and sold to investors. The Company establishes reserves for such possible losses based upon, among other things, an analysis of repurchase requests

received, an estimate of potential repurchase claims not yet received and actual past repurchases and losses through the disposition of affected loans, as well as previous settlements. While the Company believes that it has adequately reserved for known losses and projected repurchase requests, given the volatility in the mortgage industry and the uncertainty regarding the ultimate resolution of these claims, if either actual repurchases or the losses incurred resolving those repurchases exceed the Company’s expectations, additional recourse expense may be incurred. Loan origination liabilities are included in Lennar Financial Services’ liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. The activity in the Company’s loan origination liabilities was as follows:



	Three Months Ended
	February 28,
(In thousands)	2014			2013
Loan origination liabilities, beginning of period	$	9,311		7,250
Provision for losses during the period	293			413
Adjustments to pre-existing provisions for losses from changes in estimates	—			96
Payments/settlements	(19		)	(153	)
Loan origination liabilities, end of period	$	9,585		7,606

For Lennar Financial Services loans held-for-investment, net, a loan is deemed impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Interest income is not accrued or recognized on impaired loans unless payment is received. Impaired loans are written-off if and when the loan is no longer secured by collateral. The total unpaid principal balance of the impaired loans as of February 28, 2014 and November 30, 2013 was $7.5 million and $7.9 million, respectively. At February 28, 2014, the recorded investment in the impaired loans with a valuation allowance was $3.7 million, net of an allowance of $3.8 million. At November 30, 2013, the recorded investment in the impaired loans with a valuation allowance was $4.0 million, net of an allowance of $3.9 million. The average recorded investment in impaired loans totaled $3.9 million and $3.2 million for the three months ended February 28, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

Loans Receivable

In February 2010, the Rialto segment acquired indirectly 40% managing member equity interests in two limited liability companies (“LLCs”), in partnership with the FDIC, for approximately $243 million (net of transaction costs and a $22 million working capital reserve). The LLCs hold performing and non-performing loans formerly owned by 22 failed financial institutions and when the Rialto segment acquired its interests in the LLCs, the two portfolios consisted of approximately 5,500 distressed residential and commercial real estate loans (“FDIC Portfolios”). The FDIC retained 60% equity interests in the LLCs and provided $626.9 million of financing with 0% interest, which was non-recourse to the Company and the LLCs. In accordance with GAAP, interest was not imputed because the notes were with, and guaranteed by, a governmental agency. The notes were secured by the loans held by the LLCs. If the LLCs exceed expectations and meet certain internal rate of return and distribution thresholds, the Company’s equity interest in the LLCs could be reduced from 40% down to 30%, with a corresponding increase to the FDIC’s equity interest from 60% up to 70%. As of November 30, 2013, the notes payable had been fully paid and the remaining cash collected on the loans and REO properties, net of expenses and other items were being shared 60%/40% with the FDIC. During the three months ended February 28, 2014, $53.1 million was distributed by the LLCs, of which $31.9 million was paid to the FDIC and $21.2 million was paid to Rialto, the parent company.

The LLCs met the accounting definition of VIEs and since the Company was determined to be the primary beneficiary, the Company consolidated the LLCs. The Company was determined to be the primary beneficiary because it has the power to direct activities of the LLCs that most significantly impact the LLCs' performance through Rialto's management and servicer contracts. At February 28, 2014, these consolidated LLCs had total combined assets and liabilities of $676.5 million and $20.7 million, respectively. At November 30, 2013, these consolidated LLCs had total combined assets and liabilities of $727.1 million and $20.2 million, respectively.

In September 2010, the Rialto segment acquired approximately 400 distressed residential and commercial real estate loans (“Bank Portfolios”) and over 300 REO properties from three financial institutions. The Company paid $310 million for the distressed real estate and real estate related assets of which $124 million was financed through a 5-year senior unsecured note provided by one of the selling institutions. As of both February 28, 2014 and November 30, 2013, there was $90.9 million outstanding related to the 5-year senior unsecured note.

The following table displays the loans receivable by aggregate collateral type:



(In thousands)	February 28, 2014		November 30, 2013

Single family homes	55,274		59,647
Commercial properties	39,103		38,060
Other	13,029		13,735
Loans receivable, net	$	265,419	278,392

With regard to loans accounted for under ASC 310-30, Loans and Debt Securities Acquired with Deteriorated Credit Quality, (“ASC 310-30”), the Rialto segment estimated the cash flows, at acquisition, it expected to collect on the FDIC Portfolios and Bank Portfolios. In accordance with ASC 310-30, the difference between the contractually required payments and the cash flows expected to be collected at acquisition is referred to as the nonaccretable difference. This difference is neither accreted into income nor recorded on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets. The excess of cash flows expected to be collected over the cost of the loans acquired is referred to as the accretable yield and is recognized in interest income over the remaining life of the loans using the effective yield method.

The Rialto segment periodically evaluates its estimate of cash flows expected to be collected on its FDIC Portfolios and Bank Portfolios. These evaluations require the continued use of key assumptions and estimates, similar to those used in the initial estimate of fair value of the loans to allocate purchase price. Subsequent changes in the estimated cash flows expected to be collected may result in changes in the accretable yield and nonaccretable difference or reclassifications from nonaccretable yield to accretable yield. Increases in the cash flows expected to be collected will generally result in an increase in interest income over the remaining life of the loan or pool of loans. Decreases in expected cash flows due to further credit deterioration will generally result in an impairment charge recognized as a provision for loan losses, resulting in an increase to the allowance for loan losses but can be reversed if conditions improve.

The outstanding balance and carrying value of loans accounted for under ASC 310-30 were as follows:



(In thousands)	February 28, 2014		November 30, 2013
Outstanding principal balance	$	550,701	586,901
Carrying value	$	259,567	270,075

The activity in the accretable yield for the FDIC Portfolios and Bank Portfolios during the three months ended February 28, 2014 and 2013 was as follows:



	Three Months Ended
	February 28,
(In thousands)	2014			2013
Accretable yield, beginning of period	$	73,144		112,899
Additions	1,352			18,949
Deletions	(8,704		)	(19,915	)
Accretions	(9,795		)	(13,845	)
Accretable yield, end of period	$	55,997		98,088

Additions primarily represent reclasses from nonaccretable yield to accretable yield on the portfolios. Deletions represent loan impairments, net of recoveries, and disposal of loans, which includes foreclosure of underlying collateral and result in the removal of the loans from the accretable yield portfolios.

When forecasted principal and interest cannot be reasonably estimated at the loan acquisition date, management classifies the loan as nonaccrual and accounts for these assets in accordance with ASC 310-10, Receivables (“ASC 310-10”). When a loan is classified as nonaccrual, any subsequent cash receipt is accounted for using the cost recovery method. In accordance with ASC 310-10, a loan is considered impaired when based on current information and events it is probable that all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement will not be collected. Although these loans met the definition of ASC 310-10, these loans were not considered impaired relative to the Company’s recorded investment at the time of acquisition since they were acquired at a substantial discount to their unpaid principal balance. A provision for loan losses is recognized when the recorded investment in the loan is in excess of its fair value. The fair value of the loan is determined by using either the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate or the fair value of the collateral less estimated costs to sell.

The following tables represent nonaccrual loans in the FDIC Portfolios and Bank Portfolios accounted for under ASC 310-10 aggregated by collateral type:

The average recorded investment in impaired loans totaled approximately $7 million and $37 million for the three months ended February 28, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

The loans receivable portfolios consist of loans acquired at a discount. Based on the nature of these loans, the portfolios are managed by assessing the risks related to the likelihood of collection of payments from borrowers and guarantors, as well as monitoring the value of the underlying collateral. The following are the risk categories for the loans receivable portfolios:

Accrual — Loans in which forecasted cash flows under the loan agreement, as it might be modified from time to time, can be reasonably estimated at the date of acquisition. The risk associated with loans in this category relates to the possible default by the borrower with respect to principal and interest payments and the possible decline in value of the underlying collateral and thus, both could cause a decline in the forecasted cash flows used to determine accretable yield income and the recognition of an impairment through an allowance for loan losses but can be reversed if conditions improve. The activity in the Company's allowance rollforward related to accrual loans was as follows:



	Three Months Ended
	February 28,
(In thousands)	2014			2013
Allowance on accrual loans, beginning of period	$	18,952		12,178
Provision for loan losses, net of recoveries	6,637			6,077
Charge-offs	(667		)	(1,404	)
Allowance on accrual loans, end of period	$	24,922		16,851

Nonaccrual — Loans in which forecasted principal and interest could not be reasonably estimated at the date of acquisition. The risk of nonaccrual loans relates to a decline in the value of the collateral securing the outstanding obligation and the recognition of an impairment through an allowance for loan losses if the recorded investment in the loan exceeds the fair value of the collateral less estimated cost to sell. The activity in the Company's allowance rollforward related to nonaccrual loans was as follows:



	Three Months Ended
	February 28,
(In thousands)	2014			2013
Allowance on nonaccrual loans, beginning of period	$	1,213		3,722
Provision for loan losses	79			1,013
Charge-offs	(868		)	(3,025	)
Allowance on nonaccrual loans, end of period	$	424		1,710

Accrual and nonaccrual loans receivable by risk categories were as follows:

February 28, 2014



(In thousands)	Accrual		Nonaccrual	Total
Land	$	155,877	2,136	158,013
Single family homes	52,145		3,129	55,274
Commercial properties	38,516		587	39,103

Other	13,735		—	13,735
Loans receivable	$	270,075	8,317	278,392

In order to assess the risk associated with each risk category, the Rialto segment evaluates the forecasted cash flows and the value of the underlying collateral securing loans receivable on a quarterly basis or when an event occurs that suggests a decline in the collateral’s fair value.

Real Estate Owned

The acquisition of properties acquired through, or in lieu of, loan foreclosure are reported within the condensed consolidated balance sheets as REO held-and-used, net and REO held-for-sale. When a property is determined to be held-and-used, net, the asset is recorded at fair value and depreciated over its useful life using the straight line method. When certain criteria set forth in ASC 360, Property, Plant and Equipment, are met, the property is classified as held-for-sale. When a real estate asset is classified as held-for-sale, the property is recorded at the lower of its cost basis or fair value less estimated costs to sell. The fair value of REO held-for-sale are determined in part by placing reliance on third party appraisals of the properties and/or internally prepared analyses of recent offers or prices on comparable properties in the proximate vicinity.

The following tables represent the activity in REO:

(1)	During the three months ended February 28, 2014 and 2013, the Rialto segment transferred certain properties from REO held-and-used, net to REO held-for-sale as a result of changes in the disposition strategy of the real estate assets.

For the three months ended February 28, 2014 and 2013, the Company recorded $9.5 million and $8.7 million, respectively, of net gains from sales of REO. For the three months ended February 28, 2014 and 2013, the Company recorded net gains (losses) of ($0.1) million and $1.5 million, respectively, from acquisitions of REO through foreclosure. These net gains (losses) are recorded in Rialto Investments other income (expense), net.

Rialto Mortgage Finance

In July 2013, RMF was formed to originate and sell into securitizations five, seven and ten year commercial first mortgage loans, generally with principal amounts between $2 million and $75 million, which are secured by income producing properties. During the three months ended February 28, 2014, RMF originated loans with a total principal balance of $295.5 million and sold $253.0 million of these loans into two separate securitizations. An additional $52.2 million of these originated loans were sold but not settled into a securitization trust as of February 28, 2014, and thus were included in receivables, net. As of February 28, 2014 and November 30, 2013, RMF had two warehouse repurchase financing agreements that mature in fiscal year 2015 totaling $500 million to help finance the loans it makes. Borrowings under these facilities were $57.8 million and $76.0 million as of February 28, 2014 and November 30, 2013, respectively.

In November 2013, the Rialto segment issued $250 million aggregate principal amount of the 7.00% senior notes due 2018 ("7.00% Senior Notes"), at a price of 100% in a private placement. Proceeds from the offering, after payment of expenses, were approximately $245 million. Rialto used a majority of the net proceeds of the sale of the 7.00% Senior Notes as working capital for RMF and used $100 million to repay sums that had been advanced to RMF from Lennar to enable it to begin originating and securitizing commercial mortgage loans. Interest on the 7.00% Senior Notes is due semi-annually beginning June 1, 2014. At both February 28, 2014 and November 30, 2013, the carrying amount of the 7.00% Senior Notes was $250 million. Under the indenture, Rialto is subject to certain covenants limiting, among other things, Rialto’s ability to incur indebtedness, to make investments, to make distributions to, or enter into transactions with, Lennar or to create liens, subject to certain exceptions and qualifications. Rialto also has quarterly and annual reporting requirements, similar to an SEC registrant, to holders of the 7.00% Senior Notes. The Company believes it was in compliance with its debt covenants at February 28, 2014.

Subsequent to the first quarter of 2014, the Rialto segment issued an additional $100 million of the 7.00% Senior Notes, at a price of 102.25% of their face value in a private offering with no registration rights. Proceeds from the offering, after payment of expenses, were approximately $102 million. Rialto intends to use the net proceeds of the offering to provide additional working capital for RMF, and to make investments in the funds that Rialto manages, as well as for general corporate purposes.

Investments

All of Rialto's investments in funds have the attributes of an investment company in accordance with ASC 946, Financial Services – Investment Companies, as amended by ASU 2013-08, Financial Services - Investment Companies (Topic 946): Amendments to the Scope, Measurement, and Disclosure Requirements, the attributes of which are different from the attributes that would cause a company to be an investment company for purposes of the Investment Company Act of 1940. As a result, the Company's investments' assets and liabilities are recorded at fair value with increases/decreases in fair value recorded in their respective statements of operations, the Company’s share of which are recorded in the Rialto Investments equity in earnings from unconsolidated entities financial statement line item.

In 2010, the Rialto segment invested in approximately $43 million of non-investment grade commercial mortgage-backed securities (“CMBS”) for $19.4 million, representing a 55% discount to par value. These securities bear interest at a coupon rate of 4% and have a stated and assumed final distribution date of November 2020 and a stated maturity date of October 2057. The Rialto segment reviews changes in estimated cash flows periodically, to determine if other-than-temporary impairment has occurred on its investment securities. Based on the Rialto segment’s assessment, no impairment charges were recorded during both the three months ended February 28, 2014 and 2013. The carrying value of the investment securities at February 28, 2014 and November 30, 2013, was $16.4 million and $16.1 million, respectively. The Rialto segment classified these securities as held-to-maturity based on its intent and ability to hold the securities until maturity.

A subsidiary in the Rialto segment had an approximately 5% investment in a financial services company (the “Servicer Provider”) that has a business segment that provides service and infrastructure to the residential home loan market, which provides loan servicing support for all of the Company's owned and managed portfolios and asset management services for Rialto's small balance loan program. As of November 30, 2013, the carrying value of the Company’s investment in the Servicer Provider was $8.3 million. In January 2014, Rialto acquired 100% of the loan servicing business segment of the Servicer Provider in exchange for its 5% investment interest. At acquisition date, the provisional fair value of the assets acquired were $20.8 million, the provisional goodwill recorded was $5.1 million and the provisional fair value of the liabilities assumed were $17.6 million.

The Rialto Real Estate Investment Fund, LP ("Fund I") had equity commitments and contributions of $700 million (including $75 million by the Company). All capital commitments have been called and funded, and Fund I is closed to additional commitments. During the three months ended February 28, 2014 and 2013, the Company received distributions of $3.2 million and $7.7 million, respectively, as a return of capital from Fund I. As of February 28, 2014 and November 30, 2013, the carrying value of the Company’s investment in Fund I was $77.6 million and $75.7 million, respectively. For the three months ended February 28, 2014 and 2013, the Company’s share of earnings from Fund I was $5.1 million and $6.4 million, respectively.

In December 2012, the Rialto segment completed the first closing of the Real Estate Fund II, LP ("Fund II"), which included $100 million committed by the Company. Fund II's objective during its three-year investment period is to invest in distressed real estate assets and other related investments that fit Fund II's investment parameters. As of February 28, 2014, Fund II was closed to additional commitments with equity commitments of $1.3 billion, including $100 million by the Company. As of February 28, 2014, $660 million of the $1.3 billion in equity commitments had been called, of which, the Company contributed its portion of $50.6 million. During the three months ended February 28, 2014, $148.6 million in equity commitments was called, none of which was called from the Company due to new investors coming in to Fund II. During the three months ended February 28, 2014, the Company received distributions of $2.0 million as a return of capital from Fund II. As of February 28, 2014 and November 30, 2013, the carrying value of the Company's investment in Fund II was $51.2 million and $53.1 million, respectively.

In 2013, the Rialto segment started raising capital and investing in mezzanine commercial loans creating the Rialto Mezzanine Partners Fund (the “Mezzanine Fund”) with a target of raising $300 million in capital to invest in performing mezzanine commercial loans. These loans have expected durations of one to two years and are secured by equity interests in the borrowing entity owning the real estate. As of February 28, 2014, the Mezzanine Fund had total equity commitments and capital invested of $82 million, including $25 million committed and invested by the Company, of which $8.6 million was contributed by the Company during three months ended February 28, 2014. As of February 28, 2014 and November 30, 2013, the carrying value of the Company's investment in the Mezzanine Fund was $25.6 million and $16.7 million, respectively. For the three months ended February 28, 2014, the Company's share of earnings from the Mezzanine Fund was $0.3 million.

In 2014, the Rialto segment formed the Rialto Capital CMBS Fund, LP (the "CMBS Fund"). The general purpose of the CMBS Fund is to acquire, own and/or dispose of securities whose value and income payments are derived from and collateralized by a specific pool of underlying assets, which are CMBS. As of February 28, 2014, the CMBS Fund had total invested capital of $14.7 million, including $9.7 million contributed by the Company during the three months ended February 28, 2014. As of February 28, 2014, the carrying value of the Company's investment in the CMBS Fund was $9.7 million.

Since 2012, the Company has become actively involved, primarily through unconsolidated entities, in the development of multifamily rental properties. The Lennar Multifamily segment focuses on developing a geographically diversified portfolio of institutional quality multifamily rental properties in select U.S. markets.

Lennar Multifamily segment's unconsolidated entities in which the Company has investments usually finance their activities with a combination of partner equity and debt financing. In connection with many of the loans to Lennar Multifamily unconsolidated entities, the Company (or entities related to them) have been required to give guarantees of completion and cost over-runs to the lenders and partners. Those completion guarantees may require that the guarantors complete the construction of the improvements for which the financing was obtained. If the construction is to be done in phases, the guarantee generally is limited to completing only the phases as to which construction has already commenced and for which loan proceeds were used. Additionally, the Company guarantees the construction costs of the project. All construction cost over-runs would be paid by the Company. As of February 28, 2014, the fair value of the completion guarantees is immaterial. As of February 28, 2014 and November 30, 2013, Lennar Multifamily segment's unconsolidated entities had non-recourse debt with completion guarantees of $75.9 million and $51.6 million, respectively.

Summarized condensed financial information on a combined 100% basis related to Lennar Multifamily's investments in unconsolidated entities that are accounted for by the equity method was as follows:

The Company believes it was in compliance with its debt covenants at February 28, 2014.

The Company’s performance letters of credit outstanding were $175.2 million and $160.6 million, respectively, at February 28, 2014 and November 30, 2013. The Company’s financial letters of credit outstanding were $232.2 million and $212.8 million, respectively, at February 28, 2014 and November 30, 2013. Performance letters of credit are generally posted with regulatory bodies to guarantee the Company’s performance of certain development and construction activities. Financial letters of credit are generally posted in lieu of cash deposits on option contracts, for insurance risks, credit enhancements and as other collateral. Additionally, at February 28, 2014, the Company had outstanding performance and surety bonds related to site improvements at various projects (including certain projects in the Company’s joint ventures) of $759.4 million. Although significant development and construction activities have been completed related to these site improvements, these bonds are generally not released until all development and construction activities are completed. As of February 28, 2014, there were approximately $341.9 million, or 45%, of anticipated future costs to complete related to these site improvements. The Company

does not presently anticipate any draws upon these bonds or letters of credit, but if any such draws occur, the Company does not believe they would have a material effect on its financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In February 2014, the Company originally issued $400 million aggregate principal amount of 4.50% senior notes due 2019 (the "4.50% Senior Notes") at a price of 100%. The Company issued an additional $100 million aggregate principal amount of its 4.50% Senior Notes at a price of 100.5%. Proceeds from the offerings, after payment of expenses, were $496.6 million. The Company used the net proceeds from the sales of the 4.50% Senior Notes for working capital and general corporate purposes. Interest on the 4.50% Senior Notes is due semi-annually beginning June 15, 2014. The 4.50% Senior Notes are unsecured and unsubordinated, but are guaranteed by substantially all of the Company's 100% owned homebuilding subsidiaries. At February 28, 2014, the carrying amount of the 4.50% Senior Notes was $500.5 million.

At both February 28, 2014 and November 30, 2013, the carrying and principal amount of the 3.25% convertible senior notes due 2021 (the "3.25% Convertible Senior Notes") was $400.0 million. The 3.25% Convertible Senior Notes are convertible into shares of Class A common stock at any time prior to maturity or redemption at the initial conversion rate of 42.5555 shares of Class A common stock per $1,000 principal amount of the 3.25% Convertible Senior Notes or 17,022,200 shares of Class A common stock if all the 3.25% Convertible Senior Notes are converted, which is equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $23.50 per share of Class A common stock, subject to anti-dilution adjustments. The shares are included in the calculation of diluted earnings per share. Holders of the 3.25% Convertible Senior Notes have the right to require the Company to repurchase them for cash equal to 100% of their principal amount, plus accrued but unpaid interest on November 15, 2016. The Company has the right to redeem the 3.25% Convertible Senior Notes at any time on or after November 20, 2016 for 100% of their principal amount, plus accrued but unpaid interest. The 3.25% Convertible Senior Notes are unsecured and unsubordinated, but are guaranteed by substantially all of the Company's 100% owned homebuilding subsidiaries.

The 2.75% convertible senior notes due 2020 (the “2.75% Convertible Senior Notes”) are convertible into cash, shares of Class A common stock or a combination of both, at the Company’s election. However, it is the Company’s intent to settle the face value of the 2.75% Convertible Senior Notes in cash. Shares are included in the calculation of diluted earnings per share because even though it is the Company’s intent to settle the face value of the 2.75% Convertible Senior Notes in cash, the Company's volume weighted average stock price exceeded the conversion price. The Company’s volume weighted average stock price for the three months ended February 28, 2014 and 2013 was $38.78 and $39.54, respectively, which exceeded the conversion price, thus 8.6 million shares and 8.9 million shares, respectively, were included in the calculation of diluted earnings per share. Holders may convert the 2.75% Convertible Senior Notes at the initial conversion rate of 45.1794 shares of Class A common stock per $1,000 principal amount or 20,150,012 Class A common stock if all the 2.75% Convertible Senior Notes are converted, which is equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $22.13 per share of Class A common stock. Holders of the 2.75% Convertible Senior Notes have the right to require the Company to repurchase them for cash equal to 100% of their principal amount, plus accrued but unpaid interest, on December 15, 2015. The Company has the right to redeem the 2.75% Convertible Senior Notes at any time on or after December 20, 2015 for 100% of their principal amount, plus accrued but unpaid interest. The 2.75% Convertible Senior Notes are unsecured and unsubordinated, but are guaranteed by substantially all of the Company's 100% owned homebuilding subsidiaries.

Certain provisions under ASC 470, Debt, require the issuer of certain convertible debt instruments that may be settled in cash on conversion to separately account for the liability and equity components of the instrument in a manner that reflects the issuer’s non-convertible debt borrowing rate. The Company has applied these provisions to its 2.75% Convertible Senior Notes. At both February 28, 2014 and November 30, 2013, the principal amount of the 2.75% Convertible Senior Notes was $446.0 million. At February 28, 2014 and November 30, 2013, the carrying amount of the equity component included in stockholders’ equity was $26.2 million and $30.0 million, respectively, and the net carrying amount of the 2.75% Convertible Senior Notes included in Lennar Homebuilding senior notes and other debts payable was $419.8 million and $416.0 million, respectively.

Although the guarantees by substantially all of the Company's 100% owned homebuilding subsidiaries are full, unconditional and joint and several while they are in effect, (i) a subsidiary will cease to be a guarantor at any time when it is not directly or indirectly guaranteeing at least $75 million of debt of Lennar Corporation (the parent company), and (ii) a subsidiary will be released from its guarantee and any other obligations it may have regarding the senior notes if all or substantially all its assets, or all of its capital stock, are sold or otherwise disposed of.


(13)	Product Warranty

Warranty and similar reserves for homes are established at an amount estimated to be adequate to cover potential costs for materials and labor with regard to warranty-type claims expected to be incurred subsequent to the delivery of a home. Reserves are determined based on historical data and trends with respect to similar product types and geographical areas. The Company regularly monitors the warranty reserve and makes adjustments to its pre-existing warranties in order to reflect changes in trends and historical data as information becomes available. Warranty reserves are included in other liabilities in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. The activity in the Company’s warranty reserve was as follows:

(15)	Financial Instruments

The following table presents the carrying amounts and estimated fair values of financial instruments held by the Company at February 28, 2014 and November 30, 2013, using available market information and what the Company believes to be appropriate valuation methodologies. Considerable judgment is required in interpreting market data to develop the estimates of fair value. The use of different market assumptions and/or estimation methodologies might have a material effect on the estimated fair value amounts. The table excludes cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, receivables, net and accounts payable, all of which had fair values approximating their carrying amounts due to the short maturities of these instruments.

The following methods and assumptions are used by the Company in estimating fair values:

Lennar Homebuilding and Lennar Multifamily—For senior notes and other debts payable, the fair value of fixed-rate borrowings is based on quoted market prices and the fair value of variable-rate borrowings is based on expected future cash flows calculated using current market forward rates.

Rialto Investments—The fair values for loans receivable, net is based on discounted cash flows, or the fair value of the collateral less estimated cost to sell. The fair value for investments held-to-maturity is based on discounted cash flows. For notes and other debts payable, the fair value is calculated based on discounted cash flows using the Company’s weighted average borrowing rate and for the warehouse repurchase financing agreements fair values approximate their carrying value due to their short maturities.

Lennar Financial Services—The fair values above are based on quoted market prices, if available. The fair values for instruments that do not have quoted market prices are estimated by the Company on the basis of discounted cash flows or other financial information.

Fair Value Measurements:

GAAP provides a framework for measuring fair value, expands disclosures about fair value measurements and establishes a fair value hierarchy which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value summarized as follows:

Level 1: Fair value determined based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets.

Level 2: Fair value determined using significant other observable inputs.

Level 3: Fair value determined using significant unobservable inputs.

The Company’s financial instruments measured at fair value on a recurring basis are summarized below:



Financial Instruments	Fair Value Hierarchy	Fair Value at February 28, 2014			Fair Value at November 30, 2013

(1)	The aggregate fair value of Lennar Financial Services loans held-for-sale of $314.8 million at February 28, 2014 exceeds their aggregate principal balance of $300.8 million by $14.0 million. The aggregate fair value of loans held-for-sale of $414.2 million at November 30, 2013 exceeds their aggregate principal balance of $399.0 million by $15.3 million.


(2)	The aggregate fair value of Rialto Investments loans held-for-sale of $86.9 million at February 28, 2014 exceeds their aggregate principal balance of $86.4 million by $0.5 million. The aggregate fair value of loans held-for-sale of $44.2 million at November 30, 2013 exceeds their aggregate principal balance of $44.0 million by $0.2 million.

The estimated fair values of the Company’s financial instruments have been determined by using available market information and what the Company believes to be appropriate valuation methodologies. Considerable judgment is required in interpreting market data to develop the estimates of fair value. The use of different market assumptions and/or estimation methodologies might have a material effect on the estimated fair value amounts. The following methods and assumptions are used by the Company in estimating fair values:

Lennar Financial Services loans held-for-sale— Fair value is based on independent quoted market prices, where available, or the prices for other mortgage whole loans with similar characteristics. Management believes carrying loans held-for-sale at fair value improves financial reporting by mitigating volatility in reported earnings caused by measuring the fair value of the loans and the derivative instruments used to economically hedge them without having to apply complex hedge accounting provisions. In addition, the Company recognizes the fair value of its rights to service a mortgage loan as revenue upon entering into an interest rate lock loan commitment with a borrower. The fair value of these servicing rights is included in Lennar Financial Services’ loans held-for-sale as of February 28, 2014 and November 30, 2013. Fair value of servicing rights is determined based on actual sales of servicing rights on loans with similar characteristics.

Lennar Financial Services mortgage loan commitments— Fair value of commitments to originate loans is based upon the difference between the current value of similar loans and the price at which the Lennar Financial Services segment has committed to originate the loans. The fair value of commitments to sell loan contracts is the estimated amount that the Lennar Financial Services segment would receive or pay to terminate the commitments at the reporting date based on market prices for similar financial instruments. In addition, the Company recognizes the fair value of its rights to service a mortgage loan as revenue upon entering into an interest rate lock loan commitment with a borrower. The fair value of servicing rights is determined based on actual sales of servicing rights on loans with similar characteristics. The fair value of the mortgage loan commitments and related servicing rights is included in Lennar Financial Services’ other assets as of February 28, 2014 and November 30, 2013.

Lennar Financial Services forward contracts— Fair value is based on quoted market prices for similar financial instruments.

Lennar Homebuilding investments available-for-sale— The fair value of these investments is based on third party valuations and/or estimated by the Company on the basis of discounted cash flows.

Rialto Investments loans held-for-sale— The fair value of loans held-for-sale is calculated from model-based techniques that use discounted cash flow assumptions and the Company’s own estimates of CMBS spreads, market interest rate

movements and the underlying loan credit quality. Loan values are calculated by allocating the change in value of an assumed CMBS capital structure to each loan. The value of an assumed CMBS capital structure is calculated, generally, by discounting the cash flows associated with each CMBS class at market interest rates and at the Company’s own estimate of CMBS spreads. The Company estimates CMBS spreads by observing the pricing of recent CMBS offerings, secondary CMBS markets, changes in the CMBX index, and general capital and commercial real estate market conditions. Considerations in estimating CMBS spreads include comparing the Company’s current loan portfolio with comparable CMBS offerings containing loans with similar duration, credit quality and collateral composition. These methods use unobservable inputs in estimating a discount rate that is used to assign a value to each loan. While the cash payments on the loans are contractual, the discount rate used and assumptions regarding the relative size of each class in the CMBS capital structure can significantly impact the valuation. Therefore, the estimates used could differ materially from the fair value determined when the loans are sold to a securitization trust.

Rialto Investments interest rate swaps and swap futures— The fair value of interest rate swaps and swap futures (derivatives) is based on quoted market prices for identical investments traded in active markets.

Rialto Investments credit default swaps— The fair value of credit default swaps (derivatives) is based on quoted market prices for similar investments traded in active markets.

Gains (losses) of Lennar Financial Services financial instruments measured at fair value from initial measurement and subsequent changes in fair value are recognized in the Lennar Financial Services segment’s operating earnings. Gains (losses) of Rialto financial instruments measured at fair value are recognized in the Rialto segment's operating earnings. Gains (losses) related to the Lennar Homebuilding investments available-for-sale during the three months ended February 28, 2014 and 2013 were deferred as a result of the Company's continuing involvement in the underlying real estate collateral. There were no gains (losses) recognized for the Lennar Homebuilding investments available-for-sale during the three months ended February 28, 2014 and 2013. The changes in fair values that are included in operating earnings are shown, by financial instrument and financial statement line item below:

Interest income on Lennar Financial Services loans held-for-sale and Rialto Investments loans held-for-sale measured at fair value is calculated based on the interest rate of the loan and recorded as revenues in the Lennar Financial Services’ statement of operations and Rialto Investments' statement of operations, respectively.

The Lennar Financial Services segment uses mandatory mortgage-backed securities (“MBS”) forward commitments, option contracts and investor commitments to hedge its mortgage-related interest rate exposure. These instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk. Credit risk associated with MBS forward commitments, option contracts and loan sales transactions is managed by limiting the Company’s counterparties to investment banks, federally regulated bank affiliates and other investors meeting the Company’s credit standards. The segment’s risk, in the event of default by the purchaser, is the difference between the contract price and fair value of the MBS forward commitments and option contracts. At February 28, 2014, the segment had open commitments amounting to $535.0 million to sell MBS with varying settlement dates through May 2014.

These gains and impairments are included within Rialto Investments other income (expense), net in the Company's statement of operations for the three months ended February 28, 2013.

(4)

REO held-and-used, net, assets are initially recorded at fair value at the time of acquisition through, or in lieu of, loan foreclosure. Upon acquisition, the REO held-and-used, net, had a carrying value of $15.2 million and a fair value of $16.2 million. The fair value of REO held-and-used, net, is based upon the appraised value at the time of foreclosure or management’s best estimate. The gains upon acquisition of REO held-and-used, net, were $1.0 million. As part of management's periodic valuations of its REO held-and-used, net, during the three months ended February 28, 2013, REO held-and-used, net, with an aggregate value of $2.1 million were written down to their fair value of $2.0 million, resulting in impairments of $0.1 million. These gains and impairments are included within the Rialto Investments other income (expense), net, in the Company’s statement of operations for the three months ended February 28, 2013.

Finished homes and construction in progress are included within inventories. Inventories are stated at cost unless the inventory within a community is determined to be impaired, in which case the impaired inventory is written down to fair value. Inventory costs include land, land development and home construction costs, real estate taxes, deposits on land purchase contracts and interest related to development and construction. Construction overhead and selling expenses are expensed as incurred. Homes held-for-sale are classified as inventories until delivered. Land, land development, amenities and other costs are accumulated by specific area and allocated to homes within the respective areas. The Company reviews its inventory for indicators of impairment by evaluating each community during each reporting period. The inventory within each community is categorized as finished homes and construction in progress or land under development based on the development state of the community. There were 546 and 482 active communities, excluding unconsolidated entities, as of February 28, 2014 and 2013, respectively. If the undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by a community are less than its carrying amount, an impairment charge is recorded to write down the carrying amount of such community to its estimated fair value.

In conducting its review for indicators of impairment on a community level, the Company evaluates, among other things, the margins on homes that have been delivered, margins on homes under sales contracts in backlog, projected margins with regard to future home sales over the life of the community, projected margins with regard to future land sales and the estimated fair value of the land itself. The Company pays particular attention to communities in which inventory is moving at a slower than anticipated absorption pace and communities whose average sales price and/or margins are trending downward and are anticipated to continue to trend downward. From this review, the Company identifies communities whose carrying values exceed their undiscounted cash flows.

The Company estimates the fair value of its communities using a discounted cash flow model. The projected cash flows for each community are significantly impacted by estimates related to market supply and demand, product type by community, homesite sizes, sales pace, sales prices, sales incentives, construction costs, sales and marketing expenses, the local economy, competitive conditions, labor costs, costs of materials and other factors for that particular community. Every division evaluates the historical performance of each of its communities as well as current trends in the market and economy impacting the community and its surrounding areas. These trends are analyzed for each of the estimates listed above. For example, any increase and or decrease in construction costs in addition to change in product type in many communities has impacted future estimated cash flows.

Each of the homebuilding markets in which the Company operates is unique, as homebuilding has historically been a local business driven by local market conditions and demographics. Each of the Company’s homebuilding markets has specific supply and demand relationships reflective of local economic conditions. The Company’s projected cash flows are impacted by many assumptions. Some of the most critical assumptions in the Company’s cash flow model are projected absorption pace for home sales, sales prices and costs to build and deliver homes on a community by community basis.

In order to arrive at the assumed absorption pace for home sales included in the Company’s cash flow model, the Company analyzes its historical absorption pace in the community as well as other comparable communities in the geographical area. In addition, the Company considers internal and external market studies and trends, which generally include, but are not limited to, statistics on population demographics, unemployment rates and availability of competing product in the geographic area where the community is located. When analyzing the Company’s historical absorption pace for home sales and corresponding internal and external market studies, the Company places greater emphasis on more current metrics and trends such as the absorption pace realized in its most recent quarters as well as forecasted population demographics, unemployment rates and availability of competing product. Generally, if the Company notices a variation from historical results over a span of two fiscal quarters, the Company considers such variation to be the establishment of a trend and adjusts its historical information accordingly in order to develop assumptions on the projected absorption pace in the cash flow model for a community.

In order to determine the assumed sales prices included in its cash flow models, the Company analyzes the historical sales prices realized on homes it delivered in the community and other comparable communities in the geographical area as well as the sales prices included in its current backlog for such communities. In addition, the Company considers internal and external market studies and trends, which generally include, but are not limited to, statistics on sales prices in neighboring communities and sales prices on similar products in non-neighboring communities in the geographic area where the community is located. When analyzing its historical sales prices and corresponding market studies, the Company also places greater emphasis on more current metrics and trends such as future forecasted sales prices in neighboring communities as well as future forecasted sales prices for similar products in non-neighboring communities. Generally, if the Company notices a variation from historical results over a span of two fiscal quarters, the Company considers such variation to be the establishment of a trend and adjusts its historical information accordingly in order to develop assumptions on the projected sales prices in the cash flow model for a community.

In order to arrive at the Company’s assumed costs to build and deliver homes, the Company generally assumes a cost structure reflecting contracts currently in place with its vendors adjusted for any anticipated cost reduction initiatives or increases in cost structure. Costs assumed in the cash flow model for the Company’s communities are generally based on the rates the Company is currently obligated to pay under existing contracts with its vendors adjusted for any anticipated cost reduction initiatives or increases in cost structure.

Since the estimates and assumptions included in the Company’s cash flow models are based upon historical results and projected trends, the Company does not anticipate unexpected changes in market conditions or strategies that may lead the Company to incur additional impairment charges in the future.

Using all available information, the Company calculates its best estimate of projected cash flows for each community. While many of the estimates are calculated based on historical and projected trends, all estimates are subjective and change from market to market and community to community as market and economic conditions change. The determination of fair value also requires discounting the estimated cash flows at a rate the Company believes a market participant would determine to be commensurate with the inherent risks associated with the assets and related estimated cash flow streams. The discount rate used in determining each asset’s fair value depends on the community’s projected life and development stage. The Company generally uses a discount rate of approximately 20%, subject to the perceived risks associated with the community’s cash flow streams relative to its inventory.

The Company estimates the fair value of inventory evaluated for impairment based on market conditions and assumptions made by management at the time the inventory is evaluated, which may differ materially from actual results if market conditions or assumptions change. For example, further market deterioration or changes in assumptions may lead to the

Company incurring additional impairment charges on previously impaired inventory, as well as on inventory not currently impaired but for which indicators of impairment may arise if further market deterioration occurs.

In the three months ended February 28, 2014, the Company reviewed its communities for potential indicators of impairments and identified 26 communities with 1,071 homesites and a corresponding carrying value of $89.3 million as having potential indicators of impairment. Of those communities identified, the Company recorded no impairments for the three months ended February 28, 2014.

REO represents real estate that the Rialto segment has taken control or has effective control of in partial or full satisfaction of loans receivable. At the time of acquisition of a property through foreclosure of a loan, REO is recorded at fair value less estimated costs to sell if classified as held-for-sale or at fair value if classified as held-and-used, which becomes the property’s new basis. The fair values of these assets are determined in part by placing reliance on third party appraisals of the properties and/or internally prepared analyses of recent offers or prices on comparable properties in the proximate vicinity. The third party appraisals and internally developed analyses are significantly impacted by the local market economy, market supply and demand, competitive conditions and prices on comparable properties, adjusted for date of sale, location, property size, and other factors. Each REO is unique and is analyzed in the context of the particular market where the property is located. In order to establish the significant assumptions for a particular REO, the Company analyzes historical trends, including trends achieved by our local homebuilding operations, if applicable, and current trends in the market and economy impacting the REO. Using available trend information, the Company then calculates its best estimate of fair value, which can include projected cash flows discounted at a rate the Company believes a market participant would determine to be commensurate with the inherent risks associated with the assets and related estimated cash flow streams. These methods use unobservable inputs to develop fair value for the Company’s REO. Due to the volume and variance of unobservable inputs, resulting from the uniqueness of each of the Company's REO, the Company does not use a standard range of unobservable inputs with respect to its evaluation of REO. However, for operating properties within REO, the Company may also use estimated cash flows multiplied by a capitalization rate to determine the fair value of the property. For the three months ended February 28, 2014, the capitalization rates used to estimate fair value ranged from 9% to 12% and varied based on the location of the asset, asset type and occupancy rates for the operating properties.

Changes in economic factors, consumer demand and market conditions, among other things, could materially impact estimates used in the third party appraisals and/or internally prepared analyses of recent offers or prices on comparable properties. Thus, estimates can differ significantly from the amounts ultimately realized by the Rialto segment from disposition of these assets. The amount by which the recorded investment in the loan is less than the REO’s fair value (net of estimated cost to sell if held-for-sale), is recorded as an unrealized gain on foreclosure in the Company’s statement of operations. The amount by which the recorded investment in the loan is greater than the REO’s fair value (net of estimated cost to sell if held-for-sale) is initially recorded as an impairment in the Company’s statement of operations.


(16)	Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities

GAAP requires the consolidation of VIEs in which an enterprise has a controlling financial interest. A controlling financial interest will have both of the following characteristics: (a) the power to direct the activities of a VIE that most significantly impact the VIEs economic performance and (b) the obligation to absorb losses of the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE or the right to receive benefits from the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE.

The Company’s variable interest in VIEs may be in the form of (1) equity ownership, (2) contracts to purchase assets, (3) management and development agreements between the Company and a VIE, (4) loans provided by the Company to a VIE or other partner and/or (5) guarantees provided by members to banks and other third parties. The Company examines specific criteria and uses its judgment when determining if the Company is the primary beneficiary of a VIE. Factors considered in determining whether the Company is the primary beneficiary include risk and reward sharing, experience and financial condition of other partner(s), voting rights, involvement in day-to-day capital and operating decisions, representation on a VIE’s executive committee, existence of unilateral kick-out rights or voting rights, level of economic disproportionality, if any, between the Company and the other partner(s) and contracts to purchase assets from VIEs.

Generally, all major decision making in the Company’s joint ventures is shared between all partners. In particular, business plans and budgets are generally required to be unanimously approved by all partners. Usually, management and other fees earned by the Company are nominal and believed to be at market and there is no significant economic disproportionality between the Company and other partners. Generally, the Company purchases less than a majority of the joint venture’s assets and the purchase prices under the Company’s option contracts are believed to be at market.

Generally, Lennar Homebuilding unconsolidated entities become VIEs and consolidate when the other partner(s) lack the intent and financial wherewithal to remain in the entity. As a result, the Company continues to fund operations and debt paydowns through partner loans or substituted capital contributions.

The Company evaluated the joint venture agreements of its joint ventures that were formed or that had reconsideration events during the three months ended February 28, 2014. Based on the Company's evaluation, it consolidated an entity within its Lennar Multifamily segment that had total combined assets of $22.9 million during the three months ended February 28, 2014. In addition, during the three months ended February 28, 2014, there were no VIEs that were deconsolidated.

At February 28, 2014 and November 30, 2013, the Company’s recorded investments in Lennar Homebuilding unconsolidated entities were $689.7 million and $716.9 million, respectively, the Rialto segment’s investments in unconsolidated entities were $164.8 million and $154.6 million, respectively, and the Lennar Multifamily segment's investments in unconsolidated entities were $63.9 million and $46.3 million, respectively.

Consolidated VIEs

As of February 28, 2014, the carrying amounts of the VIEs’ assets and non-recourse liabilities that consolidated were $1.1 billion and $248.0 million, respectively. As of November 30, 2013, the carrying amounts of the VIEs’ assets and non-recourse liabilities that consolidated were $1.2 billion and $294.8 million, respectively. Those assets are owned by, and those liabilities are obligations of, the VIEs, not the Company.

A VIE’s assets can only be used to settle obligations of that VIE. The VIEs are not guarantors of Company’s senior notes and other debts payable. In addition, the assets held by a VIE usually are collateral for that VIE’s debt. The Company and other partners do not generally have an obligation to make capital contributions to a VIE unless the Company and/or the other partner(s) have entered into debt guarantees with a VIE’s banks. Other than debt guarantee agreements with a VIE’s banks, there are no liquidity arrangements or agreements to fund capital or purchase assets that could require the Company to provide financial support to a VIE. While the Company has option contracts to purchase land from certain of its VIEs, the Company is not required to purchase the assets and could walk away from the contracts.

Unconsolidated VIEs

The Company’s recorded investment in unconsolidated VIEs and its estimated maximum exposure to loss were as follows:

As of February 28, 2014



(In thousands)	Investments in Unconsolidated VIEs		Lennar’s Maximum Exposure to Loss
Lennar Homebuilding (1)	$	174,049	251,634
Rialto Investments (2)	16,359		16,359
Lennar Multifamily (3)	38,464		67,520
	$	228,872	335,513

As of November 30, 2013



(In thousands)	Investments in Unconsolidated VIEs		Lennar’s Maximum Exposure to Loss
Lennar Homebuilding (1)	$	195,720	301,315
Rialto Investments (2)	24,393		24,393
Lennar Multifamily (3)	25,874		55,002
	$	245,987	380,710

(1)

At February 28, 2014, the maximum exposure to loss of Lennar Homebuilding’s investments in unconsolidated VIEs is limited to its investments in unconsolidated VIEs, except with regard to a $67.5 million remaining commitment to fund an unconsolidated entity for further expenses up until the unconsolidated entity obtains permanent financing and $9.9 million of recourse debt of one of the unconsolidated VIEs, which is included in the Company’s maximum exposure to loss related to Lennar Homebuilding unconsolidated entities. At November 30, 2013, the maximum exposure to loss of Lennar Homebuilding’s investments in unconsolidated VIEs was limited to its investment in the unconsolidated VIEs, except with regard to $90.5 million remaining commitment to fund an unconsolidated entity that was formed in 2013 for further expenses up until the unconsolidated entity obtains permanent financing and $15.0 million of recourse debt of one of the unconsolidated VIEs, which is included in the Company’s maximum exposure to loss related to Lennar Homebuilding unconsolidated entities.

(2)

At both February 28, 2014 and November 30, 2013, the maximum recourse exposure to loss of Rialto’s investments in unconsolidated VIEs is limited to its investments in unconsolidated VIEs. At February 28, 2014 and November 30, 2013, investments in unconsolidated VIEs and Lennar’s maximum exposure to loss include $16.4 million and $16.1 million, respectively, related to Rialto’s investments held-to-maturity.

(3)

At February 28, 2014, the maximum exposure to loss of Lennar Multifamily's investments in unconsolidated VIEs is limited to its investments in the unconsolidated VIEs, except with regard to $28.2 million of letters of credit outstanding for certain of the unconsolidated VIEs that in the event of default under its debt agreement the letter of credit will be drawn upon. At November 30, 2013, the maximum exposure to loss of Lennar Multifamily's investments in unconsolidated VIEs is limited to its investments in the unconsolidated VIEs, except with regard to $28.0 million of letters of credit outstanding for certain of the unconsolidated VIEs that in the event of default under its debt agreement the letter of credit will be drawn upon.

While these entities are VIEs, the Company has determined that the power to direct the activities of the VIEs that most significantly impact the VIEs’ economic performance is generally shared. While the Company generally manages the day-to-day operations of the VIEs, each of these VIEs has an executive committee made up of representatives from each partner. The members of the executive committee have equal votes and major decisions require unanimous consent and approval from all members. The Company does not have the unilateral ability to exercise participating voting rights without partner consent. Furthermore, the Company’s economic interest is not significantly disproportionate to the point where it would indicate that the Company has the power to direct these activities.

The Company and other partners do not generally have an obligation to make capital contributions to the VIEs, except for $9.9 million of recourse debt of one of the Lennar Homebuilding unconsolidated VIEs and $28.2 million of letters of credit outstanding for certain of Lennar Multifamily unconsolidated VIEs that in the event of default under its debt agreement the letter of credit will be drawn upon. Except for the unconsolidated VIEs discussed above, the Company and the other partners did not guarantee any debt of the other unconsolidated VIEs. There are no liquidity arrangements or agreements to fund capital or purchase assets that could require the Company to provide financial support to the VIEs except with regard to a $67.5 million remaining commitment to fund an unconsolidated entity that was formed in 2013 for further expenses up until the unconsolidated entity obtains permanent financing. While the Company has option contracts to purchase land from certain of its unconsolidated VIEs, the Company is not required to purchase the assets and could walk away from the contracts.

Option Contracts

The Company has access to land through option contracts, which generally enables it to control portions of properties owned by third parties (including land funds) and unconsolidated entities until the Company has determined whether to exercise the option.

A majority of the Company’s option contracts require a non-refundable cash deposit or irrevocable letter of credit based on a percentage of the purchase price of the land. The Company’s option contracts sometimes include price adjustment provisions, which adjust the purchase price of the land to its approximate fair value at the time of acquisition or are based on the fair value at the time of takedown.

The Company’s investments in option contracts are recorded at cost unless those investments are determined to be impaired, in which case the Company’s investments are written down to fair value. The Company reviews option contracts for indicators of impairment during each reporting period. The most significant indicator of impairment is a decline in the fair value of the optioned property such that the purchase and development of the optioned property would no longer meet the Company’s targeted return on investment with appropriate consideration given to the length of time available to exercise the option. Such declines could be caused by a variety of factors including increased competition, decreases in demand or changes in local regulations that adversely impact the cost of development. Changes in any of these factors would cause the Company to re-evaluate the likelihood of exercising its land options.

Some option contracts contain a predetermined take-down schedule for the optioned land parcels. However, in almost all instances, the Company is not required to purchase land in accordance with those take-down schedules. In substantially all instances, the Company has the right and ability to not exercise its option and forfeit its deposit without further penalty, other than termination of the option and loss of any unapplied portion of its deposit and pre-acquisition costs. Therefore, in substantially all instances, the Company does not consider the take-down price to be a firm contractual obligation.

When the Company does not intend to exercise an option, it writes off any unapplied deposit and pre-acquisition costs associated with the option contract.

The Company evaluates all option contracts for land to determine whether they are VIEs and, if so, whether the Company is the primary beneficiary of certain of these option contracts. Although the Company does not have legal title to the optioned land, if the Company is deemed to be the primary beneficiary or makes a significant deposit for optioned land, it may need to consolidate the land under option at the purchase price of the optioned land. During the three months ended February 28, 2014, the effect of take-downs and consolidation of option contracts was a net decrease of $63.0 million to consolidated inventory not owned with a corresponding decrease to liabilities related to consolidated inventory not owned in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of February 28, 2014. The decrease was primarily due to the purchase of land that was the subject of a previously consolidated option contract, partially offset by the consolidation of a new option contract due to a significant nominal dollar deposit placed on the future purchase of homesites. To reflect the purchase price of the inventory consolidated,

the Company had a net reclass related to option deposits from consolidated inventory not owned to land under development in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of February 28, 2014. The liabilities related to consolidated inventory not owned primarily represent the difference between the option exercise prices for the optioned land and the Company’s cash deposits.

The Company’s exposure to loss related to its option contracts with third parties and unconsolidated entities consisted of its non-refundable option deposits and pre-acquisition costs totaling $111.9 million and $129.2 million at February 28, 2014 and November 30, 2013, respectively. Additionally, the Company had posted $28.0 million and $29.9 million of letters of credit in lieu of cash deposits under certain option contracts as of February 28, 2014 and November 30, 2013, respectively.


(17)	New Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-11, Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities, (“ASU 2011-11”). which requires entities to disclose information about offsetting and related arrangements of financial instruments and derivative instruments. In January 2013, this guidance was amended by ASU 2013-01, Clarifying the Scope of Disclosures about Offsetting assets and Liabilities ("ASU 2013-01"). ASU 2013-01 limits the scope of ASU 2011-11 to certain derivatives, repurchase and reverse repurchase agreements, and securities borrowing and lending transactions. The guidance was effective for the Company's fiscal year beginning December 1, 2013 and subsequent interim periods. The adoption of this guidance, which is related to disclosure only, did not have a material effect on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

In April 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-04, Liabilities, (“ASU 2013-04”). ASU 2013-04 provides guidance for the recognition, measurement, and disclosure of obligations resulting from joint and several liability arrangements for which the total amount of the obligation is fixed at the reporting date. ASU 2013-04 will be effective for the Company’s fiscal year beginning December 1, 2014 and subsequent interim periods. The adoption of ASU 2013-04 is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

In July 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-11, Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit When a Net Operating Loss Carryforward, a similar Tax Loss, or a Tax Credit Carryforward Exists, (“ASU 2013-11”). ASU 2013-13 is intended to end inconsistent practices regarding the presentation of a unrecognized tax benefits when a net operating loss ("NOL"), a similar tax loss or a tax credit carryforward is available to reduce the taxable income or tax payable that would result from the dis- allowance of a tax position. ASU 2013-11 will be effective for the Company’s fiscal year beginning December 1, 2014 and subsequent interim periods. The adoption of ASU 2013-11 is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.


(18)	Supplemental Financial Information

The indentures governing the Company’s 5.50% senior notes due 2014, 5.60% senior notes due 2015, 6.50% senior notes due 2016, 12.25% senior notes due 2017, 4.75% senior notes due 2017, 6.95% senior notes due 2018, 4.125% senior notes due 2018, 4.50% senior notes due 2019, 2.75% convertible senior notes due 2020, 3.25% convertible senior notes due 2021 and 4.750% senior notes due 2022 require that, if any of the Company’s 100% owned subsidiaries, other than its finance company subsidiaries and foreign subsidiaries, directly or indirectly guarantee at least $75 million principal amount of debt of Lennar Corporation, those subsidiaries must also guarantee Lennar Corporation’s obligations with regard to its senior notes. The entities referred to as “guarantors” in the following tables are subsidiaries that were guaranteeing the senior notes because at February 28, 2014, they were guaranteeing Lennar Corporation's $150 million of letter of credit facilities, a $120 million letter of credit facility and its Credit Facility. The guarantees are full, unconditional and joint and several and the guarantor subsidiaries are 100% directly or indirectly owned by Lennar Corporation. A subsidiary's guarantee will be suspended, and the subsidiary will cease to be a guarantor, at any time when it is not directly or indirectly guaranteeing at least $75 million of debt of Lennar Corporation, and a subsidiary will be released from its guarantee and any other obligations it may have regarding the senior notes if all or substantially all its assets, or all of its capital stock, are sold or otherwise disposed of.

For purposes of the condensed consolidating statement of cash flows included in the following supplemental financial information, the Company's accounting policy is to treat cash received by Lennar Corporation ("the Parent") from its subsidiaries, to the extent of net earnings from such subsidiaries as a dividend and accordingly a return on investment within cash flows from operating activities. The cash outflows associated with the return on investment dividends received by the Parent are reflected by the Guarantor and Non-Guarantor subsidiaries in the Dividends line item within cash flows from financing activities. All other cash flows between the Parent and its subsidiaries represent the settlement of receivables and payables between such entities in conjunction with the Parent's centralized cash management arrangement with its subsidiaries, which operates with the characteristics of a revolving credit facility, and are accordingly reflected net in the Intercompany line item within cash flows from investing activities for the Parent and net in the Intercompany line item within cash flows from financing activities for the Guarantor and Non-Guarantor subsidiaries.

Supplemental information for the subsidiaries that were guarantor subsidiaries at February 28, 2014 was as follows:

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included under Item 1 of this Report and our audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, for our fiscal year ended November 30, 2013.

Some of the statements in this Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, and elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, are “forward-looking statements,” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements concern expectations, beliefs, projections, plans and strategies, anticipated events or trends and similar expressions concerning matters that are not historical facts. The forward-looking statements in this Quarterly Report include statements regarding: our belief that the housing market is in a solid recovery mode; our belief that we will achieve profitability in fiscal 2014; our belief regarding the fundamental drivers of improvement in the housing market, and regarding constrained inventories; our expectation that the main driver of our earnings will continue to be our homebuilding and Financial Services operations; our belief that we are well positioned to deliver between 21,000 and 22,000 homes with gross margins expected to average about 25% during fiscal 2014; our intent to settle the 2.75% Convertible Senior Notes in cash; our expectation regarding our variability in our quarterly results; our belief that Rialto Mortgage Finance ("RMF") will be a significant contributor to our Rialto Investments' revenues in the near future; our expectation regarding earnings for our Rialto Investments segment in fiscal 2014; our expectations regarding the renewal or replacement of our warehouse facilities; our belief regarding draws upon our bonds or letters of credit, and our belief regarding the impact to the Company if there were such a draw; our belief that our operations and borrowing resources will provide for our current and long-term capital requirements at our anticipated levels of activity; and our estimates regarding certain tax matters, including expectations regarding our effective tax rate in fiscal 2014, and accounting valuations, and our expectations regarding the result of anticipated settlements with various taxing authorities.

These forward-looking statements reflect our current views about future events and are subject to risks, uncertainties and assumptions. We wish to caution readers that certain important factors may have affected and could in the future affect our actual results and could cause actual results to differ significantly from those expressed in any forward-looking statement. Some of the most important factors that could prevent us from achieving our goals, and cause the assumptions underlying forward-looking statements and the actual results to differ materially from those expressed in or implied by those forward-looking statements include but are not limited to the following: a slowdown in the recovery of real estate markets across the nation, or any further downturn in such markets; changes in general economic and financial conditions, and demographic trends, in the U.S. leading to decreased demand for our services and homes, lower profit margins and reduced access to credit; increased competition for home sales from other sellers of new and resale homes; conditions in the capital, credit and financial markets, including mortgage lending standards, the availability of mortgage financing and mortgage foreclosure rates; changes in interest and unemployment rates, and inflation; a decline in the value of the land and home inventories we maintain or possible future write-downs of the book value of our real estate assets; increases in operating costs, including costs related to real estate taxes, construction materials, labor and insurance, and our ability to manage our cost structure; our inability to maintain anticipated pricing levels and our inability to predict the effect of interest rates on demand; the ability of the participants in various joint ventures to honor their commitments; our ability to successfully and timely obtain land-use entitlements and construction financing, and address issues that arise in connection with the use and development of our land; natural disasters and other unforeseen damage for which our insurance may not provide adequate coverage; potential liability under environmental or construction laws, or other laws or regulations affecting our business; our ability to comply with the terms of our debt instruments; unfavorable or unanticipated outcomes in legal proceedings that substantially exceed our expectations; the possibility that we will incur non-recurring costs that may not have a material adverse effect on our business or financial condition, but may have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial statements for a particular reporting period; and our ability to successfully estimate the impact of certain accounting and tax matters.

Please see our Form 10-K, for the fiscal year ended November 30, 2013 and other filings with the SEC for a further discussion of these and other risks and uncertainties which could also affect our future results. We undertake no obligation to publicly revise any forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of those statements or to reflect the occurrence of anticipated or unanticipated events.

Outlook

We continue to believe that the housing market is in a solid recovery mode. In the first quarter of 2014, we saw both traffic and sales volume have a steady month-by-month improvement throughout the quarter. We believe that the fundamental drivers of improvement in the housing market remain a steadily improving economy with a slowly improving employment picture, unlocking pent-up demand from the production deficit of both single and multifamily housing that took place throughout the economic downturn and through last year. Builders of both single and multifamily housing will need to increase

production to make up for the production deficit. Even as the market responds, inventories are likely to remain constrained as production increases are limited by a shortage of entitled and developed land to build on in desirable locations.

While we recognize the potential headwinds from a constrained and sometimes uncertain mortgage market, including interest rate volatility, fluctuations in consumer confidence and diminishing investment purchases in the resale market, we believe that the fundamentals of short supply of available homes and pent-up demand will continue to define our strategy of land acquisition and growth and drive the housing recovery forward.

We began 2014 with a solid first quarter, with revenues and pretax earnings attributable to Lennar increasing 38% and 130%, respectively, from the first quarter of 2013. Our gross margin increased 300 basis points to 25.1%. This gross margin, combined with our selling, general and administrative expenses of 11.8%, increased our operating margin 310 basis points to 13.2% during the first quarter of 2014. In addition, we ended the quarter with a strong sales backlog, up 15% in homes and 33% in dollar value. During the first quarter of 2014, we also had strong performances from our other business segments. Our Financial Services segment produced $4.5 million of pretax earnings as it continues to build its primary business and works to replace the now diminished refinance business with a retail business across our national footprint. Rialto generated $2.6 million of operating earnings net of earnings attributable to noncontrolling interests, benefiting from our new mortgage origination and securitization business RMF and a transition from a capital-intensive business model to an asset light, fund model. Our Multifamily rental business continued to grow during the first quarter of 2014, and we ended the quarter with 15 multifamily communities, of which 2 communities were completed and operating, 2 communities were partially completed and leasing, and the remaining 11 communities were under construction. Finally, our FivePoint Communities is well positioned, managing the entitlement and development of some of the most desirable real estate assets in Southern and Northern California.

We believe that all the segments of our company are well positioned. Our company’s strategy continues to be driven by our belief that the real estate market remains positioned to continue to recover and that our company remains well positioned to benefit from such recovery. Our principal focus in our homebuilding operations will continue to be on generating strong operating margins on the homes we sell by increasing sales prices and reducing sales incentives, while managing increasing material, labor and land costs, as well as taking advantage of the steps we have taken over the past several years to reduce costs and right-size our overhead structure. In addition, we plan to continue to invest in carefully underwritten strategic land acquisitions in well-positioned markets that we expect will continue to support our homebuilding operations going forward and help us increase operating leverage as our deliveries increase. We expect that our Company's main driver of earnings will continue to be our homebuilding and Financial Services operations, as we are currently well positioned to deliver between 21,000 and 22,000 homes with gross margins expected to average about 25% during fiscal 2014. We are also focused on our multiple platforms including Rialto, Multifamily, and FivePoint as such ancillary businesses continue to mature and expand their franchises providing longer-term opportunities that we expect will enhance shareholder value. Overall, we are on track to achieve another year of profitability in fiscal 2014, as the housing market recovery continues.

(1) Results of Operations

Overview

We historically have experienced, and expect to continue to experience, variability in quarterly results. As a result, our results of operations for the three months ended February 28, 2014 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. Our homebuilding business is seasonal in nature and generally reflects higher levels of new home order activity in our second fiscal quarter and increased deliveries in the second half of our fiscal year. However, periods of economic downturn in the industry, such as we have experienced in previous years, can alter seasonal patterns.

Our net earnings attributable to Lennar were $78.1 million, or $0.35 per diluted share ($0.38 per basic share) in the first quarter of 2014, which included a $45.9 million tax provision. This compared to net earnings attributable to Lennar of $57.5 million, or $0.26 per diluted share ($0.30 per basic share) in the first quarter of 2013, which included a $3.6 million tax benefit.

Three Months Ended February 28, 2014 versus Three Months Ended February 28, 2013

Revenues from home sales increased 33% in the first quarter of 2014 to $1.1 billion from $855.1 million in 2013. Revenues were higher primarily due to a 13% increase in the number of home deliveries, excluding unconsolidated entities, and an 18% increase in the average sales price of homes delivered. New home deliveries, excluding unconsolidated entities, increased to 3,597 homes in the first quarter of 2014 from 3,174 homes in the first quarter of 2013. There was an increase in home deliveries in all our Homebuilding segments and Homebuilding Other, except in our Homebuilding Central segment. The increase in home deliveries was primarily driven by an increase in active communities over the last year. The decrease in home deliveries in the Homebuilding Central segment was primarily due to an increase in start-up communities. The average sales price of homes delivered increased to $316,000 in the first quarter of 2014 from $269,000 in the same period last year, primarily due to increased pricing in many of our markets as the market recovery continues. Sales incentives offered to homebuyers were $21,300 per home delivered in the first quarter of 2014, or 6.3% as a percentage of home sales revenue, compared to $23,300 per home delivered in the same period last year, or 8.0% as a percentage of home sales revenue, and $20,600 per home delivered in the fourth quarter of 2013, or 6.3% as a percentage of home sales revenue. Currently, our biggest competition is from the sales of existing and foreclosed homes. We differentiate our new homes from those homes by issuing new home warranties, updated floor plans, our Everything's Included marketing program, community amenities and in certain markets by emphasizing energy efficiency and new technologies.

Gross margins on home sales were $286.1 million, or 25.1%, in the first quarter of 2014, compared to $189.0 million, or 22.1%, in the first quarter of 2013. Gross margin percentage on home sales improved compared to last year, primarily due to a decrease in sales incentives offered to homebuyers as a percentage of revenue from home sales, an increase in the average sales price of homes delivered, a greater percentage of deliveries from our new higher margin communities (communities where land was acquired subsequent to November 30, 2008), which made up 70% of our deliveries, and a $5.5 million insurance recovery, partially offset by an increase in materials, labor and land costs.

Gross profits on land sales totaled $16.1 million in the first quarter of 2014, compared to $3.0 million in the first quarter of 2013. The increase in gross profits on land sales included two land sale transactions related to land not currently under development that generated $65.4 million of revenues and $8.0 million of gross profits.

Selling, general and administrative expenses were $135.1 million in the first quarter of 2014, compared to $102.2 million in the first quarter of 2013. Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenues from home sales improved to 11.8% in the first quarter of 2014, from 12.0% in the first quarter of 2013, due to improved operating leverage as a result of more active communities.

Lennar Homebuilding equity in earnings (loss) from unconsolidated entities was $5.0 million in the first quarter of 2014, compared to ($0.9) million in the first quarter of 2013. In the first quarter of 2014, Lennar Homebuilding equity in earnings from unconsolidated entities included our share of operating earnings of $4.5 million primarily related to a third-party land sale. In the first quarter of 2013, Lennar Homebuilding equity in loss from unconsolidated entities related to our share of operating losses of Lennar Homebuilding unconsolidated entities.

Lennar Homebuilding other income (expense), net, totaled $2.9 million in the first quarter of 2014, compared to $7.8 million in the first quarter of 2013.

Lennar Homebuilding interest expense was $41.0 million in the first quarter of 2014 ($26.4 million was included in costs of homes sold, $1.8 million in costs of land sold and $12.7 million in other interest expense), compared to $46.3 million in the first quarter of 2013 ($19.4 million was included in costs of homes sold, $0.8 million in costs of land sold and $26.0 million in other interest expense). Interest expense decreased due to an increase in qualifying assets eligible for interest capitalization, partially offset by an increase in our outstanding debt and increase in home deliveries.

Operating earnings for our Lennar Financial Services segment were $4.5 million in the first quarter of 2014, compared to $16.1 million in the first quarter of 2013. The decrease in profitability was primarily due to a decrease in the refinance volume in the segment's mortgage and title operations, as well as lower profit per transaction in the segment's mortgage operations.

In the first quarter of 2014, operating earnings for the Rialto Investments ("Rialto") segment were $2.6 million (which included $3.5 million of operating earnings, partially offset by $0.9 million of net earnings attributable to noncontrolling interests), compared to operating earnings of $1.7 million (which included $1.4 million of operating earnings and an add back of $0.3 million of net loss attributable to noncontrolling interests) in the same period last year. In the first quarter of 2014, revenues in this segment were $47.0 million, which consisted primarily of securitization revenue and interest income from RMF, Rialto's new loan origination and securitization business, accretable interest income associated with the Rialto segment's portfolio of real estate loans and fees for managing and servicing assets. This compared to revenues of $25.6 million in the same period last year, which consisted primarily of accretable interest income associated with the segment’s portfolio of real estate loans and fees for managing and servicing assets. Revenues increased primarily due to the new RMF business and an increase in fees for managing and servicing assets, partially offset by a decrease in interest income as a result of a decrease in

the segment's portfolio of loans. In the first quarter of 2014, expenses in this segment were $47.6 million, which consisted primarily of costs related to the new RMF business, the segment's portfolio operations, loan impairments of $6.7 million, net of recoveries, primarily associated with the segment's FDIC loan portfolio (before noncontrolling interests), and other general and administrative expenses, compared to expenses of $31.8 million in the same period last year, which consisted primarily of costs related to its portfolio operations, loan impairments of $7.1 million primarily associated with the segment's FDIC loan portfolio (before noncontrolling interests) and other general and administrative expenses. Expenses increased primarily due to securitization expenses, general and administrative expenses related to the new RMF business and an increase in interest expense related to Rialto's issuance of senior notes in the fourth quarter of 2013.

In the first quarter of 2014, the Rialto segment also had equity in earnings from unconsolidated entities of $5.4 million, which primarily included $5.1 million of equity in earnings related to our share of earnings from the Rialto real estate funds. This compared to equity in earnings from unconsolidated entities of $6.2 million in the first quarter of 2013, which included $6.4 million of equity in earnings related to our share of earnings from the Rialto Real Estate Fund, LP ("Fund I").

In the first quarter of 2014, Rialto Investments other expense, net, was $1.2 million, which consisted primarily of expenses related to owning and maintaining real estate owned (“REO”), operating loss, net related to a prior year acquisition, and impairments on REO of $2.3 million, partially offset by realized gains on the sale of REO of $9.5 million and rental income. In the first quarter of 2013, Rialto Investments other income, net, was $1.3 million, which consisted primarily of rental income and realized gains on the sale of REO of $8.7 million, partially offset by expenses related to owning and maintaining REO.

Operating loss for the Lennar Multifamily segment was $6.2 million in the first quarter of 2014, compared to $3.5 million in the first quarter of 2013. The operating loss in Lennar Multifamily primarily related to general and administrative expenses of the segment, partially offset by management fee income.

Corporate general and administrative expenses were $38.1 million, or 2.8% as a percentage of total revenues, in the first quarter of 2014, compared to $31.3 million, or 3.2% as a percentage of total revenues, in the first quarter of 2013. As a percentage of total revenues, corporate general and administrative expenses improved due to increased operating leverage.

Net earnings (loss) attributable to noncontrolling interests were $1.8 million and ($0.5) million, in the first quarter of 2014 and 2013, respectively. Net earnings (loss) attributable to noncontrolling interests were related to net earnings (loss) attributable to noncontrolling interests in the homebuilding and Rialto segments.

In the first quarter of 2014, we had a tax provision of $45.9 million primarily related to first quarter 2014 pre-tax earnings. In the first quarter of 2013, we had a tax benefit of $3.6 million, which included a $25.1 million reversal of our valuation allowance, partially offset by $21.5 million tax provision primarily related to first quarter 2013 pre-tax earnings. Our overall effective income tax rates were 37.02% and (6.75%), in the first quarter of 2014 and 2013, respectively. The difference in effective tax rates was primarily due to the valuation allowance reversal recorded in the first quarter of 2013.

Homebuilding Segments

We have grouped our homebuilding activities into five reportable segments, which we refer to as Homebuilding East, Homebuilding Central, Homebuilding West, Homebuilding Southeast Florida and Homebuilding Houston, based primarily upon similar economic characteristics, geography and product type. Information about homebuilding activities in states that do not have economic characteristics that are similar to those in other states in the same geographic area is grouped under “Homebuilding Other,” which is not a reportable segment. References in this Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations to homebuilding segments are to those reportable segments.

At February 28, 2014, our reportable homebuilding segments and Homebuilding Other consisted of homebuilding divisions located in:

East: Florida⁽¹⁾, Georgia, Maryland, New Jersey, North Carolina, South Carolina and Virginia

Central: Arizona, Colorado and Texas⁽²⁾

West: California and Nevada

Southeast Florida: Southeast Florida

Houston: Houston, Texas

Other: Illinois, Minnesota, Tennessee, Oregon and Washington

(1)Florida in the East reportable segment excludes Southeast Florida, which is its own reportable segment.

(2)Texas in the Central reportable segment excludes Houston, Texas, which is its own reportable segment.

The following tables set forth selected financial and operational information related to our homebuilding operations for the periods indicated:

Three Months Ended February 28, 2014 versus Three Months Ended February 28, 2013

Homebuilding East: Homebuilding revenues increased for the three months ended February 28, 2014 compared to the three months ended February 28, 2013, primarily due to an increase in the number of home deliveries in all the states in the segment, except New Jersey, and an increase in the average sales price of homes delivered in all of the states in the segment. The increase in the number of deliveries was primarily driven by an increase in active communities over the last year. The decrease in home deliveries in New Jersey was primarily due to the timing of deliveries from certain communities. The increase in the average sales price of homes delivered was primarily because we have been able to increase the sales price of homes delivered and/or reduce sales incentives in certain of our communities as the market recovery continues. Gross margin percentage on home sales for the three months ended February 28, 2014 increased compared to the same period last year primarily due to a decrease in sales incentives offered to homebuyers as a percentage of revenues from home sales (7.6% in 2014, compared to 10.3% in 2013) and a greater percentage of deliveries from our new higher margin communities, partially offset by a 9% increase in direct construction and land costs per home due to increases in labor, material and land costs.

Homebuilding Central: Homebuilding revenues decreased for the three months ended February 28, 2014 compared to the three months ended February 28, 2013, primarily due to a decrease in home deliveries in all the states in the segment, except Texas, excluding Houston, where there was an increase in home deliveries primarily driven by an increase in active communities over the last year. The decrease in home deliveries in the other states in this segment was due to an increase in start-up communities. The decrease in homebuilding revenues was partially offset by an increase in average sales price of homes delivered in all of the states in the segment as we have been able to increase the sales price of homes delivered as the market recovery continues. Gross margin percentage on home sales for the three months ended February 28, 2014 decreased compared to the same period last year primarily due to a 7% increase in direct construction and land costs per home due to increases in labor, material and land costs, and an increase in sales incentives offered to homebuyers as a percentage of revenues from home sales (7.7% in 2014, compared to 6.3% in 2013), partially offset by a greater percentage of deliveries from our new higher margin communities.

Homebuilding West: Homebuilding revenues increased for the three months ended February 28, 2014 compared to the three months ended February 28, 2013, primarily due to an increase in the number of home deliveries and in the average sales price of homes delivered in all of the states in the segment. The increase in the number of deliveries was primarily driven by an increase in active communities over the last year. The increase in the average sales price of homes delivered was primarily a result of a change in product mix due to the timing of deliveries and because we have been able to increase the sales price of homes delivered and/or reduce sales incentives in certain of our communities as the market recovery continues. Gross margin percentage on home sales for the three months ended February 28, 2014 increased compared to the same period last year primarily due to the increase in average sales price, a greater percentage of deliveries from our new higher margin communities and a decrease in sales incentives offered to homebuyers as a percentage of revenues from home sales (3.1% in 2014, compared to 3.5% in 2013), partially offset by a 27% increase in direct construction and land costs per home as a result of a change in product mix due to the timing of deliveries and an increases in labor, material and land costs.

Homebuilding Southeast Florida: Homebuilding revenues increased for the three months ended February 28, 2014 compared to the three months ended February 28, 2013, primarily due to an increase in the number of home deliveries and in the average sales price in this segment. The increase in the number of home deliveries was primarily driven by an increase in active communities over the last year. The increase in the average sales price of homes delivered was primarily because we have been able to increase the sales price of homes delivered and/or reduce sales incentives in certain of our communities as the market recovery continues. Gross margin percentage on home sales for the three months ended February 28, 2014 increased compared to the same period last year primarily due to a decrease in sales incentives offered to homebuyers as a percentage of revenues from home sales (7.3% in 2014, compared to 10.0% in 2013) and a greater percentage of deliveries from our new higher margin communities, partially offset by a 14% increase in direct construction and land costs per home due to increases in labor, material and land costs.

Homebuilding Houston: Homebuilding revenues increased for the three months ended February 28, 2014 compared to the three months ended February 28, 2013, primarily due to an increase in the number of home deliveries and average sales price of homes delivered in this segment. The increase in the number of deliveries was primarily driven by higher demand as the number of deliveries per active community increased. The increase in the average sales price of homes delivered was primarily because we have been able to increase the sales price of homes delivered and/or reduce sales incentives in certain of our communities as the market recovery continues. Gross margin percentage on home sales for the three months ended February 28, 2014 increased compared to the same period last year primarily due to a $5.5 million insurance recovery, a decrease in sales incentives offered to homebuyers as a percentage of revenues from home sales (8.6% in 2014, compared to 11.6% in 2013) and a greater percentage of deliveries from our new higher margin communities, partially offset by a 5% increase in direct construction and land costs per home due to increases in labor, material and land costs.

Homebuilding Other: Homebuilding revenues increased for the three months ended February 28, 2014 compared to the three months ended February 28, 2013, primarily due to an increase in the average sales price of homes delivered in all the

states, except Oregon. Illinois had no activity during three months ended February 28, 2014. The increase in the average sales price of homes delivered was primarily because we have been able to increase the sales price of homes delivered and/or reduce sales incentives in certain of our communities as the market recovery continues. The decrease in the average sales price of homes delivered in Oregon was primarily due to a change in product mix primarily due to the timing of deliveries from certain communities. Gross margin percentage on home sales for the three months ended February 28, 2014 decreased compared to the same period last year primarily due to a change in product mix due to the timing of deliveries from certain communities and a 14% increase in direct construction and land costs per home due to increases in labor, material and land costs, partially offset by a decrease in sales incentives offered to homebuyers as a percentage of revenues from home sales (4.5% in 2014, compared to 4.8% in 2013).

At February 28, 2014 and 2013, we owned 129,579 homesites and 112,068 homesites, respectively, and had access to an additional 24,593 homesites and 22,542 homesites, respectively, through either option contracts with third parties or agreements with unconsolidated entities in which we have investments. At November 30, 2013, we owned 125,643 homesites and had access to an additional 28,133 homesites through either option contracts with third parties or agreements with unconsolidated entities in which we have investments. At February 28, 2014, 3% of the homesites we owned were subject to home purchase contracts. At February 28, 2014 and 2013, our backlog of sales contracts was 5,662 homes or $1.9 billion and 4,922 homes or $1.5 billion, respectively. The increase in backlog was primarily attributable to an increase in new orders in the three months ended February 28, 2014, compared to the three months ended February 28, 2013.

Lennar Financial Services Segment

Our Lennar Financial Services reportable segment provides mortgage financing, title insurance and closing services for both buyers of our homes and others. The Lennar Financial Services segment sells substantially all of the loans it originates within a short period in the secondary mortgage market, the majority of which are sold on a servicing released, non-recourse basis. After the loans are sold, we retain potential liability for possible claims by purchasers that we breached certain limited industry-standard representations and warranties in the loan sale agreements. The following table sets forth selected financial and operational information related to our Lennar Financial Services segment:

Rialto Investments Segment

Our Rialto reportable segment is a commercial real estate investment, investment management, and finance company focused on raising, investing and managing third party capital, originating and securitizing commercial mortgage loans, as well as investing our own capital in real estate related mortgage loans, properties and related securities. Rialto utilizes its vertically-integrated investment and operating platform to underwrite, diligence, acquire, manage, workout and add value to diverse portfolios of real estate loans, properties and securities, as well as providing strategic real estate capital. Rialto's primary focus is to manage third party capital and to originate and sell into securitizations commercial mortgage loans. Rialto has commenced the workout and/or oversight of billions of dollars of real estate assets across the United States, including commercial and residential real estate loans and properties, as well as mortgage backed securities with the objective of generating superior, risk-adjusted returns. To date, many of the investment and management opportunities have arisen from the dislocation in the United States real estate markets and the restructuring and recapitalization of those markets. In 2013, RMF was formed to originate and securitize five, seven and ten year commercial first mortgage loans, generally with principal amounts between $2 million and $75 million, which will be secured by income producing properties. We expect this business to be a significant contributor to our Rialto revenues, at least in the near future.

Rialto is the sponsor of and an investor in private equity vehicles that invest in and manage real estate related assets. This includes Fund I, in which investors have committed and contributed a total of $700 million of equity (including $75 million by us), the Rialto Real Estate Fund II, LP ("Fund II") with investor commitments of $1.3 billion (including $100 million by us), the Rialto Mezzanine Partners Fund (the "Mezzanine Fund") with a target of raising $300 million in capital (including $25

million committed and invested by us) to invest in performing mezzanine commercial loans, and the Rialto Capital CMBS Fund, LP (the "CMBS Fund") to acquire, own and/or dispose of securities whose value and income payments are derived from and collateralized by a specific pool of underlying assets, which are non-investment grade commercial mortgage-backed securities ("CMBS"). Rialto also earns fees for its role as a manager of these vehicles and for providing asset management and other services to those vehicles and other third parties.

Distressed Asset Portfolios

In February 2010, the Rialto segment acquired indirectly 40% managing member equity interests in two limited liability companies (“LLCs”), in partnership with the FDIC for approximately $243 million (net of transaction costs and a $22 million working capital reserve). The LLCs held performing and non-performing loans formerly owned by 22 failed financial institutions and when the Rialto segment acquired its interests in the LLCs, the two portfolios consisted of approximately 5,500 distressed residential and commercial real estate loans (“FDIC Portfolios”). The FDIC retained 60% equity interests in the LLCs and provided $626.9 million of financing with 0% interest, which was non-recourse to us and the LLCs. In accordance with GAAP, interest was not imputed because the notes were with, and guaranteed by, a governmental agency. The notes were secured by the loans held by the LLCs. If the LLCs exceed expectations and meet certain internal rate of return and distribution thresholds, our equity interest in the LLCs could be reduced from 40% down to 30%, with a corresponding increase to the FDIC’s equity interest from 60% up to 70%. As of November 30, 2013, the notes payable had been fully paid and the remaining cash collected on the loans and REO properties, net of expenses and other items were being shared 60%/40% with the FDIC. During the three months ended February 28, 2014, $53.1 million was distributed, of which $31.9 million was paid to the FDIC and $21.2 million was paid to Rialto, the parent company.

The LLCs met the accounting definition of variable interest entities (“VIEs”) and since we were determined to be the primary beneficiary, we consolidated the LLCs. We were determined to be the primary beneficiary because we have the power to direct the activities of the LLCs that most significantly impact the LLCs' performance through Rialto's management and servicer contracts. At February 28, 2014, these consolidated LLCs had total combined assets and liabilities of $676.5 million and $20.7 million, respectively. At November 30, 2013, these consolidated LLCs had total combined assets and liabilities of $727.1 million and $20.2 million, respectively.

In September 2010, the Rialto segment acquired approximately 400 distressed residential and commercial real estate loans (“Bank Portfolios”) and over 300 REO properties from three financial institutions. We paid $310 million for the distressed real estate and real estate related assets, of which $124 million was financed through a 5-year senior unsecured note provided by one of the selling institutions. As of both February 28, 2014 and November 30, 2013, there was $90.9 million outstanding related to the 5-year senior unsecured note.

Rialto Mortgage Finance

In 2013, RMF was formed to originate and sell into securitizations five, seven and ten year commercial first mortgage loans, generally with principal amounts between $2 million and $75 million, which are secured by income producing properties. During the three months ended February 28, 2014, RMF originated loans with a total principal balance of $295.5 million and sold $253.0 million of these loans into two separate securitizations. An additional $52.2 million of these originated loans were sold but not settled into a securitization trust as of February 28, 2014, and thus were included in receivables, net. As of February 28, 2014 and November 30, 2013, RMF had two warehouse repurchase financing agreements that mature in fiscal year 2015 totaling $500 million to help finance the loans it makes. Borrowings under these facilities were $57.8 million and $76.0 million as of February 28, 2014 and November 30, 2013, respectively.

Investments

In 2010, the Rialto segment invested in approximately $43 million of CMBS for $19.4 million, representing a 55% discount to par value. The carrying value of the investment securities at February 28, 2014 and November 30, 2013, was $16.4 million and $16.1 million, respectively. The Rialto segment classified these securities as held-to-maturity based on its intent and ability to hold the securities until maturity.

A subsidiary in the Rialto segment had an approximately 5% investment in a financial services company (the “Servicer Provider”) that has a business segment that provides service and infrastructure to the residential home loan market, which provides loan servicing support for all of the Company's owned and managed portfolios and asset management services for Rialto's small balance loan program. As of November 30, 2013, the carrying value of the Company’s investment in the Servicer Provider was $8.3 million. In January 2014, Rialto acquired 100% of the loan servicing business segment of the Servicer Provider in exchange for the 5% investment interest. At acquisition date, the provisional fair value of the assets acquired were $20.8 million, the provisional goodwill recorded was $5.1 million and the provisional fair value of the liabilities assumed were $17.6 million.

In December 2012, the Rialto segment completed the first closing of Fund II which included $100 million committed by us. Fund II's objective during its three-year investment period is to invest in distressed real estate assets and other related investments that fit Fund II's investment parameters. As of February 28, 2014, Fund II was closed to additional commitments with equity commitments of $1.3 billion, including $100 million by us. During the three months ended February 28, 2014, $148.6 million of the $1.3 billion in equity commitments was called, none of which was called from us due to new investors coming into Fund II. During the three months ended February 28, 2014, we received distributions of $2.0 million as a return of capital from Fund II. As of February 28, 2014 and November 30, 2013, the carrying value of our investment in Fund II was $51.2 million and $53.1 million, respectively.

In 2013, the Rialto segment started raising capital and investing in mezzanine commercial loans creating the Mezzanine Fund with a target of raising $300 million in capital to invest in performing mezzanine commercial loans. These loans have expected durations of one to two years and are secured by equity interests in the borrowing entity owning the real estate. As of February 28, 2014, the Mezzanine Fund had total equity commitments and capital invested of $82 million, including $25 million committed and invested by us. During the three months ended February 28, 2014, we contributed $8.6 million to the Mezzanine Fund. As of February 28, 2014 and November 30, 2013, the carrying value of our investment in the Mezzanine Fund was $25.6 million and $16.7 million, respectively. For the three months ended February 28, 2014, the Company's share of earnings from the Mezzanine Fund was $0.3 million.

In 2014, the Rialto segment created the CMBS Fund. The general purpose of the CMBS Fund is to acquire, own and/or dispose of securities whose value and income payments are derived from and collateralized by a specific pool of underlying assets, which are CMBS. As of February 28, 2014, the CMBS Fund had total invested capital of $14.7 million, including $9.7 million contributed by us during the three months ended February 28, 2014. As of February 28, 2014, the carrying value of our investment in the CMBS Fund was $9.7 million.

Lennar Multifamily Segment

Since 2013, we have become actively involved, primarily through unconsolidated entities, in the development of multifamily rental properties. The Lennar Multifamily segment focuses on developing a geographically diversified portfolio of institutional quality multifamily rental properties in select U.S. markets.

As of February 28, 2014 and November 30, 2013, our balance sheet had $159.7 million and $147.1 million, respectively, of assets related to the Lennar Multifamily segment, which includes investments in unconsolidated entities of $63.9 million and $46.3 million, respectively. As of February 28, 2014, we consolidated a VIE within the Lennar Multifamily segment that had total combined assets of $22.9 million. Our net investment in the Lennar Multifamily segment as of February 28, 2014 and November 30, 2013 was $121.6 million and $105.6 million, respectively. Our Lennar Multifamily segment had 16 and 13 unconsolidated entities, as of February 28, 2014 and November 30, 2013, respectively. As of February 28, 2014, our Lennar Multifamily segment had 15 communities with development costs of $0.8 billion, of which 2 communities were completed and operating, 2 communities were partially completed and leasing, and the remaining 11 communities were under construction. Our Lennar Multifamily segment also had a pipeline of future projects totaling $2.8 billion in assets across a number of states that will be developed primarily by unconsolidated entities.

(2) Financial Condition and Capital Resources

At February 28, 2014, we had cash and cash equivalents related to our homebuilding, financial services, Rialto and multifamily operations of $874.3 million, compared to $970.5 million at November 30, 2013 and $1.2 billion at February 28, 2013.

We finance all of our activities including Homebuilding, financial services, Rialto, Multifamily and general operating needs primarily with cash generated from our operations, debt issuances and equity offerings, as well as cash borrowed under our warehouse lines of credit and our credit facility.

Operating Cash Flow Activities

During the three months ended February 28, 2014 and 2013, cash used in operating activities totaled $394.6 million and $321.5 million, respectively. During the three months ended February 28, 2014, cash used in operating activities was impacted by an increase in inventories due to strategic land purchases, an increase in Rialto Investments loans held-for-sale related to its new RMF business and a decrease in accounts payable and other liabilities, partially offset by our net earnings, a decrease in Lennar Financial Services loans held-for-sale and a decrease in receivables.

During the three months ended February 28, 2013, cash used in operating activities was impacted by an increase in inventories due to strategic land purchases and a decrease in accounts payable and other liabilities, partially offset by our net earnings (net of our deferred income tax benefit) and a decrease in Lennar Financial Services loans held-for-sale.

Investing Cash Flow Activities

During the three months ended February 28, 2014 and 2013, cash provided by investing activities totaled $75.3 million and $260.0 million, respectively. During the three months ended February 28, 2014, we received $50.7 million of proceeds from the sales of REO, $53.6 million of distributions of capital from Lennar Homebuilding unconsolidated entities, and $35.9 million of distributions of capital from Lennar Multifamily unconsolidated entities. This was partially offset by $24.1 million of cash contributions to Lennar Homebuilding unconsolidated entities primarily for working capital, $18.3 million of cash contributions to Rialto Investments unconsolidated entities primarily related to the Mezzanine Fund and CMBS Fund and $9.1 million of cash contributions to Lennar Multifamily unconsolidated entities primarily for working capital.

During the three months ended February 28, 2013, we received $18.4 million of principal payments on Rialto Investments loans receivable and $34.5 million of proceeds from the sales of REO. In addition, cash increased due to a $219.2 million decrease in Rialto Investments defeasance cash, $8.2 million of distributions of capital from Lennar Homebuilding unconsolidated entities, $7.7 million of distributions of capital from the Rialto Investments unconsolidated entities, primarily related to Fund I and $9.2 million of distributions of capital from Lennar Multifamily unconsolidated entities. This was partially offset by $14.1 million of cash contributions to Lennar Homebuilding unconsolidated entities primarily for working capital.

We are continually exploring various types of transactions to manage our leverage and liquidity positions, take advantage of market opportunities and increase our revenues. These transactions may include the issuance of additional indebtedness, the repurchase of our outstanding indebtedness for cash or equity, the acquisition of homebuilders and other companies, the sale of our assets or lines of business, the issuance of common stock or securities convertible into shares of common stock, and/or pursuing other financing alternatives. In connection with some of our more recently formed businesses, such as Rialto and Multifamily, and our consolidated joint venture FivePoint Communities, we may also consider other types of transactions such as restructurings, joint ventures, spin-offs or initial public offerings. If any of these transactions are implemented, they could materially impact the amount and composition of our indebtedness outstanding, increase our interest expense, dilute our existing stockholders and/or affect the book value of our assets. However, at February 28, 2014, we had no agreements or understandings regarding any significant transactions.

Financing Cash Flow Activities

During the three months ended February 28, 2014, our cash provided by financing activities of $223.1 million was primarily attributed to the receipt of proceeds related to the sale of $500 million aggregate principal amount of 4.50% senior notes due 2019 (the "4.50% Senior Notes"), partially offset by net repayments under our Lennar Financial Services' 364-day warehouse repurchase facilities and Rialto Investments warehouse repurchase facilities and principal payments on other borrowings.

During the three months ended February 28, 2013, our cash used in financing activities of $7.2 million was primarily attributed to principal payments on Rialto Investments notes payable, net repayments under our Lennar Financial Services’ 364-day warehouse repurchase facilities and principal payments on other borrowings, offset by the receipt of proceeds related to the sale of $275.0 million principal amount of our 4.125% senior notes due 2018 and the sale of an additional $175 million aggregate principal amount of our 4.750% senior notes due 2022.

Debt to total capital ratios are financial measures commonly used in the homebuilding industry and are presented to assist in understanding the leverage of our Lennar Homebuilding operations. Management believes providing this measure of leverage of our Lennar Homebuilding operations enables management and readers of our financial statements to better understand our financial position and performance. Lennar Homebuilding debt to total capital and net Lennar Homebuilding debt to total capital are calculated as follows:



(Dollars in thousands)	February 28, 2014			November 30, 2013		February 28, 2013
Lennar Homebuilding debt	$	4,664,715		4,194,432		4,487,804

Net Lennar Homebuilding debt to total capital (1)	48.5		%	45.6	%	49.1	%

(1)

Net Lennar Homebuilding debt to total capital is a non-GAAP financial measure defined as net Lennar Homebuilding debt (Lennar Homebuilding debt less Lennar Homebuilding cash and cash equivalents) divided by total capital (net Lennar Homebuilding debt plus total stockholders' equity). The Company believes the ratio of net Lennar Homebuilding debt to total capital is a relevant and useful financial measure to investors in understanding the leverage employed in our Lennar Homebuilding operations. However, because net Lennar Homebuilding debt to total capital is not calculated in accordance with GAAP, this financial measure should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative to financial measures prescribed by GAAP. Rather, this non-GAAP financial measure should be used to supplement the Company's GAAP results.

At February 28, 2014, Lennar Homebuilding debt to total capital was lower compared to February 28, 2013, primarily as as a result of an increase in stockholder’s equity primarily related to our net earnings and the conversion of our 2.00% convertible senior notes due 2020 from debt to equity, partially offset by an increase in Lennar Homebuilding debt due to the issuance of senior notes.

In addition to the use of capital in our homebuilding, financial services, Rialto and multifamily operations, we actively evaluate various other uses of capital. This may include acquisitions of, or investments in, other entities, the payment of dividends or repurchases of our outstanding common stock or debt. These activities may be funded through any combination of our credit facility, warehouse lines of credit, cash generated from operations, sales of assets or the issuance into capital markets of debt, common stock or preferred stock.

Our Lennar Homebuilding average debt outstanding was $4.5 billion with an average rate for interest incurred of 5.2% for the three months ended February 28, 2014, compared to $4.2 billion with an average rate for interest incurred of 5.2% for the three months ended February 28, 2013. Interest incurred related to homebuilding debt for the three months ended February 28, 2014 was $65.9 million, compared to $61.4 million in the same period last year.

At February 28, 2014, we had a $950 million unsecured revolving credit facility (the "Credit Facility") with certain financial institutions that matures in June 2017, $150 million of letter of credit facilities with a financial institution and a $120 million letter of credit facility with a different financial institution. The proceeds available under the Credit Facility, which are subject to specified conditions for borrowing, may be used for working capital and general corporate purposes. The Credit Facility agreement also provides that up to $500 million in commitments may be used for letters of credit. We believe that we were in compliance with our debt covenants at February 28, 2014.

Our performance letters of credit outstanding were $175.2 million and $160.6 million at February 28, 2014 and November 30, 2013, respectively. Our financial letters of credit outstanding were $232.2 million and $212.8 million at

February 28, 2014 and November 30, 2013, respectively. Performance letters of credit are generally posted with regulatory bodies to guarantee our performance of certain development and construction activities. Financial letters of credit are generally posted in lieu of cash deposits on option contracts, for insurance risks, credit enhancements and as other collateral. Additionally, at February 28, 2014, we had outstanding performance and surety bonds related to site improvements at various projects (including certain projects of our joint ventures) of $759.4 million. Although significant development and construction activities have been completed related to these site improvements, these bonds are generally not released until all development and construction activities are completed. As of February 28, 2014, there were approximately $341.9 million, or 45%, of anticipated future costs to complete related to these site improvements. We do not presently anticipate any draws upon these bonds or letters of credit, but if any such draws occur, we do not believe they would have a material effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In February 2014, we originally issued $400 million aggregate principal amount of 4.50% Senior Notes at a price of 100%. We issued an additional $100 million aggregate principal amount of 4.50% Senior Notes at a price of 100.5%. Proceeds from the offerings, after payment of expenses, were $496.6 million. We used the net proceeds from the sales of the 4.50% Senior Notes for working capital and general corporate purposes. Interest on the 4.50% Senior Notes is due semi-annually beginning June 15, 2014. The 4.50% Senior Notes are unsecured and unsubordinated, but are guaranteed by substantially all of our 100% owned homebuilding subsidiaries. At February 28, 2014, the carrying amount of the 4.50% Senior Notes was $500.5 million.

Currently, substantially all of our 100% owned homebuilding subsidiaries are guaranteeing all our Senior Notes (the “Guaranteed Notes”). The guarantees are full and unconditional. The principal reason our 100% owned homebuilding subsidiaries are guaranteeing the Guaranteed Notes is so holders of the Guaranteed Notes will have rights at least as great with regard to our subsidiaries as any other holders of a material amount of our unsecured debt. Therefore, the guarantees of the Guaranteed Notes will remain in effect only while the guarantor subsidiaries guarantee a material amount of the debt of Lennar Corporation, as a separate entity, to others. At any time when a guarantor subsidiary is no longer guaranteeing at least $75 million of Lennar Corporation’s debt other than the Guaranteed Notes, either directly or by guaranteeing other subsidiaries’ obligations as guarantors of Lennar Corporation’s debt, the guarantor subsidiary’s guarantee of the Guaranteed Notes will be suspended. Therefore, if the guarantor subsidiaries cease guaranteeing Lennar Corporation’s obligations under our Credit Facility and our letter of credit facilities and are not guarantors of any new debt, the guarantor subsidiaries’ guarantees of the Guaranteed Notes will be suspended until such time, if any, as they again are guaranteeing at least $75 million of Lennar Corporation’s debt other than the Guaranteed Notes.

If our guarantor subsidiaries are guaranteeing revolving credit lines totaling at least $75 million, we will treat the guarantees of the Guaranteed Notes as remaining in effect even during periods when Lennar Corporation’s borrowings under the revolving credit lines are less than $75 million. In addition, a subsidiary will be released from its guarantee and any other obligations it may have regarding the senior notes if all or substantially all its assets, or all of its capital stock, are sold or otherwise disposed of.

Under the Credit Facility agreement executed in June 2013 (the "Credit Agreement"), as of the end of each fiscal quarter, we are required to maintain minimum consolidated tangible net worth of approximately $1.5 billion plus the sum of 50% of the cumulative consolidated net income from February 29, 2012, if positive, and 50% of the net cash proceeds from any equity offerings from and after February 29, 2012. We are required to maintain a leverage ratio of 65% or less throughout the 2014 fiscal year; and a leverage ratio of 60% or less through the maturity of the Credit Agreement in June 2017. As of the end of each fiscal quarter, we are also required to maintain either (1) liquidity in an amount equal to or greater than 1.00x consolidated interest incurred for the last twelve months then ended or (2) an interest coverage ratio equal to or greater than 1.50:1.00 for the last twelve months then ended.

The following are computations of our compliance with the minimum net worth test, maximum leverage ratio, and liquidity test, as calculated per the Credit Agreement as of February 28, 2014:

Although we are in compliance with our debt covenants for both calculations, we have only disclosed the detailed calculation of our liquidity test.

Our Lennar Financial Services segment warehouse facilities at February 28, 2014 were as follows:



(In thousands)	Maximum Aggregate Commitment
364-day warehouse repurchase facility that matures November 2014	$	325,000
364-day warehouse repurchase facility that matures February 2015 (1)	300,000
364-day warehouse repurchase facility that matures February 2015	150,000
Totals	$	775,000


(1)	Maximum aggregate commitment includes a $100 million accordion feature that is usable 10 days prior to quarter-end through 20 days after quarter end.

Our Lennar Financial Services segment uses these facilities to finance its lending activities until the mortgage loans are sold to investors and expects the facilities to be renewed or replaced with other facilities when they mature. Borrowings under the facilities and their prior year predecessors were $223.1 million and $374.2 million at February 28, 2014 and November 30, 2013, respectively, and were collateralized by mortgage loans and receivables on loans sold to investors but not yet paid for with outstanding principal balances of $319.9 million and $452.5 million, at February 28, 2014 and November 30, 2013, respectively. Without the facilities, our Lennar Financial Services segment would have to use cash from operations and other funding sources to finance its lending activities. Since our Lennar Financial Services segment’s borrowings under the warehouse repurchase facilities are generally repaid with the proceeds from the sale of mortgage loans and receivables on loans that secure those borrowings, the facilities are not likely to be a call on our current cash or future cash resources. If the facilities are not renewed, the borrowings under the lines of credit will be paid off by selling mortgage loans held-for-sale and by collecting on receivables on loans sold to investors but not yet paid.

At February 28, 2014 and November 30, 2013, our Rialto segment had two warehouse repurchase financing agreements that mature in fiscal year 2015 totaling $500 million to help finance the loans it makes. Borrowings under these facilities were $57.8 million and $76.0 million as of February 28, 2014 and November 30, 2013, respectively. Rialto uses these warehouse repurchase financing agreements to finance five, seven and ten year commercial first mortgage loans that are originated by RMF, generally with principal amounts between $2 million and $75 million, which are secured by income producing properties.

Subsequent to the first quarter of 2014, the Rialto segment issued an additional $100 million of its 7.00% senior notes due 2018 at a price of 102.25% of their face value in a private offering with no registration rights. Proceeds from the offering, after payment of expenses, were approximately $102 million. Rialto intends to use the net proceeds of the offering to provide additional working capital for RMF and to make investments in the funds that Rialto manages, as well as for general corporate purposes.

Changes in Capital Structure

We have a stock repurchase program which permits the purchase of up to 20 million shares of our outstanding common stock. During both the three months ended February 28, 2014 and 2013, there were no repurchases of common stock under the stock repurchase program. As of February 28, 2014, 6.2 million shares of common stock could be repurchased in the future under the program.

On February 13, 2014, we paid cash dividends of $0.04 per share for both our Class A and Class B common stock to holders of record at the close of business on January 30, 2014, as declared by our Board of Directors on January 15, 2014.

Based on our current financial condition and credit relationships, we believe that our operations and borrowing resources will provide for our current and long-term capital requirements at our anticipated levels of activity.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

Lennar Homebuilding: Investments in Unconsolidated Entities

At February 28, 2014, we had equity investments in 34 homebuilding and land unconsolidated entities (of which 6 had recourse debt, 4 had non-recourse debt and 24 had no debt), compared to 36 homebuilding and land unconsolidated entities at November 30, 2013. Historically, we invested in unconsolidated entities that acquired and developed land (1) for our homebuilding operations or for sale to third parties or (2) for the construction of homes for sale to third-party homebuyers. Through these entities, we primarily sought to reduce and share our risk by limiting the amount of our capital invested in land, while obtaining access to potential future homesites and allowing us to participate in strategic ventures. The use of these entities also, in some instances, enabled us to acquire land to which we could not otherwise obtain access, or could not obtain access on as favorable terms, without the participation of a strategic partner. Participants in these joint ventures have been land owners/developers, other homebuilders and financial or strategic partners. Joint ventures with land owners/developers have given us access to homesites owned or controlled by our partners. Joint ventures with other homebuilders have provided us with the ability to bid jointly with our partners for large land parcels. Joint ventures with financial partners have allowed us to combine our homebuilding expertise with access to our partners’ capital. Joint ventures with strategic partners have allowed us to combine our homebuilding expertise with the specific expertise (e.g. commercial or infill experience) of our partner. Each joint venture is governed by an executive committee consisting of members from the partners.

Summarized condensed financial information on a combined 100% basis related to Lennar Homebuilding’s unconsolidated entities that are accounted for by the equity method was as follows:

As of February 28, 2014 and November 30, 2013, our recorded investments in Lennar Homebuilding unconsolidated entities were $689.7 million and $716.9 million, respectively, while the underlying equity in Lennar Homebuilding unconsolidated entities partners’ net assets as of February 28, 2014 and November 30, 2013 was $793.3 million and $829.5 million, respectively. The basis difference is primarily as a result of our buying an interest in a partner's equity in a Lennar Homebuilding unconsolidated entity at a discount to book value and contributing non-monetary assets to an unconsolidated entity with a higher fair value than book value.

In fiscal 2007, we sold a portfolio of land to a strategic land investment venture with Morgan Stanley Real Estate Fund II, L.P., an affiliate of Morgan Stanley & Co., Inc., in which we have approximately a 20% ownership interest and 50% voting rights. Due to the nature of our continuing involvement, the transaction did not qualify as a sale by us under GAAP; thus, the inventory has remained on our condensed consolidated balance sheet in consolidated inventory not owned. As of both February 28, 2014 and November 30, 2013, the portfolio of land (including land development costs) of $237.2 million and $241.8 million, respectively, is also reflected as inventory in the summarized condensed financial information related to Lennar Homebuilding’s unconsolidated entities.

The Lennar Homebuilding unconsolidated entities in which we have investments usually finance their activities with a combination of partner equity and debt financing. In some instances, our partners have guaranteed debt of certain unconsolidated entities.

Debt to total capital of the Lennar Homebuilding unconsolidated entities in which we have investments was calculated as follows:



(Dollars in thousands)	February 28, 2014			November 30, 2013
Debt	$	469,011		450,457
Equity	2,458,571			2,513,329
Total capital	$	2,927,582		2,963,786
Debt to total capital of our unconsolidated entities	16.0		%	15.2	%

Our investments in Lennar Homebuilding unconsolidated entities by type of venture were as follows:



(In thousands)	February 28, 2014		November 30, 2013

Homebuilding	172,652		179,401
Total investments	$	689,749	716,949

The summary of our net recourse exposure related to the Lennar Homebuilding unconsolidated entities in which we have investments was as follows:



(In thousands)	February 28, 2014			November 30, 2013
Several recourse debt - repayment	$	25,918		25,996
Joint and several recourse debt - repayment	9,912			15,000
Lennar’s maximum recourse exposure	35,830			40,996
Less: joint and several reimbursement agreements with our partners	(8,921		)	(13,500	)
Lennar’s net recourse exposure	$	26,909		27,496

During the three months ended February 28, 2014, our maximum recourse exposure related to indebtedness of Lennar Homebuilding unconsolidated entities decreased by $5.2 million, as a result of $0.1 million paid by us primarily through capital contributions to unconsolidated entities and $5.1 million primarily related to the joint ventures selling assets.

Indebtedness of an unconsolidated entity is secured by its own assets. Some unconsolidated entities own multiple properties and other assets. There is no cross collateralization of debt of different unconsolidated entities. We also do not use our investment in one unconsolidated entity as collateral for the debt in another unconsolidated entity or commingle funds among Lennar Homebuilding unconsolidated entities.

In connection with loans to a Lennar Homebuilding unconsolidated entity, we and our partners often guarantee to a lender, either jointly and severally or on a several basis, any or all of the following: (i) the completion of the development, in whole or in part, (ii) indemnification of the lender from environmental issues, (iii) indemnification of the lender from “bad boy acts” of the unconsolidated entity (or full recourse liability in the event of unauthorized transfer or bankruptcy) and (iv) that the loan to value and/or loan to cost will not exceed a certain percentage (maintenance or remargining guarantee) or that a percentage of the outstanding loan will be repaid (repayment guarantee).

In connection with loans to an unconsolidated entity where there is a joint and several guarantee, we sometimes have a reimbursement agreement with our partner. The reimbursement agreement provides that neither party is responsible for more than its proportionate share of the guarantee. However, if our joint venture partner does not have adequate financial resources to meet its obligations under the reimbursement agreement, we may be liable for more than our proportionate share, up to our maximum exposure, which is the full amount covered by the joint and several guarantee.

The recourse debt exposure in the previous table represents our maximum exposure to loss from guarantees and does not take into account the underlying value of the collateral or the other assets of the borrowers that are available to repay debt or to reimburse us for any payments on our guarantees. The Lennar Homebuilding unconsolidated entities that have recourse debt have a significant amount of assets and equity. The summarized balance sheets of the Lennar Homebuilding unconsolidated entities with recourse debt were as follows:



(In thousands)	February 28, 2014		November 30, 2013
Assets	$	1,648,582	1,656,065
Liabilities	$	485,664	470,875
Equity	$	1,162,918	1,185,090

In addition, in most instances in which we have guaranteed debt of a Lennar Homebuilding unconsolidated entity, our partners have also guaranteed that debt and are required to contribute their share of the guarantee payment. Historically, we have had repayment guarantees and maintenance guarantees. In a repayment guarantee, we and our venture partners guarantee repayment of a portion or all of the debt in the event of a default before the lender would have to exercise its rights against the collateral. In the event of default, if our venture partner does not have adequate financial resources to meet its obligation under our reimbursement agreement, we may be liable for more than our proportionate share, up to our maximum recourse exposure, which is the full amount covered by the joint and several guarantee. As of both February 28, 2014 and November 30, 2013, we did not have any maintenance guarantees related to our Lennar Homebuilding unconsolidated entities. The maintenance guarantees only apply if the value of the collateral (generally land and improvements) is less than a specified percentage of the loan balance. If we are required to make a payment under a repayment or maintenance guarantee, the payment would generally constitute a capital contribution or loan to the Lennar Homebuilding unconsolidated entity and increase our share of any funds the unconsolidated entity distributes.

In connection with many of the loans to Lennar Homebuilding unconsolidated entities, we and our joint venture partners (or entities related to them) have been required to give guarantees of completion to the lenders. Those completion guarantees may require that the guarantors complete the construction of the improvements for which the financing was obtained. If the

construction is to be done in phases, the guarantee generally is limited to completing only the phases as to which construction has already commenced and for which loan proceeds were used.

As of February 28, 2014, the fair values of the repayment and completion guarantees were not material. We believe that as of February 28, 2014, in the event we become legally obligated to perform under a guarantee of the obligation of a Lennar Homebuilding unconsolidated entity due to a triggering event under a guarantee, most of the time the collateral should be sufficient to repay at least a significant portion of the obligation or we and our partners would contribute additional capital into the venture. In certain instances, we have placed performance letters of credit and surety bonds with municipalities for our joint ventures.

The total debt of Lennar Homebuilding unconsolidated entities in which we have investments, including Lennar's maximum recourse exposure, were as follows:



(Dollars in thousands)	February 28, 2014			November 30, 2013
Lennar’s net recourse exposure	$	26,909		27,496
Reimbursement agreements from partners	8,921			13,500
Lennar’s maximum recourse exposure	$	35,830		40,996
Non-recourse bank debt and other debt (partner’s share of several recourse)	$	60,791		61,008
Non-recourse land seller debt or other debt	4,041			20,454
Non-recourse debt with completion guarantees	272,536			245,821
Non-recourse debt without completion guarantees	95,813			82,178
Non-recourse debt to Lennar	433,181			409,461
Total debt	$	469,011		450,457
Lennar’s maximum recourse exposure as a % of total JV debt	8		%	9	%

In view of recent credit market conditions, it is not uncommon for lenders to real estate developers, including joint ventures in which we have interests, to assert non-monetary defaults (such as failure to meet construction completion deadlines or declines in the market value of collateral below required amounts) or technical monetary defaults against the real estate developers. In most instances, those asserted defaults are resolved by modifications of the loan terms, additional equity investments or other concessions by the borrowers. In addition, in some instances, real estate developers, including joint ventures in which we have interests, are forced to request temporary waivers of covenants in loan documents or modifications of loan terms, which are often, but not always obtained. However, in some instances developers, including joint ventures in which we have interests, are not able to meet their monetary obligations to lenders, and are thus declared in default. Because we sometimes guarantee all or portions of the obligations to lenders of joint ventures in which we have interests, when these joint ventures default on their obligations, lenders may or may not have claims against us. Normally, we do not make payments with regard to guarantees of joint venture obligations while the joint ventures are contesting assertions regarding sums due to their lenders. When it is determined that a joint venture is obligated to make a payment that we have guaranteed and the joint venture will not be able to make that payment, we accrue the amounts probable to be paid by us as a liability. Although we generally fulfill our guarantee obligations within a reasonable time after we determine that we are obligated with regard to them, at any point in time it is likely that we will have some balance of unpaid guarantee liability. At both February 28, 2014 and November 30, 2013, we had no liabilities accrued for unpaid guarantees of joint venture indebtedness on our condensed consolidated balance sheets.

The following table summarizes the principal maturities of our Lennar Homebuilding unconsolidated entities (“JVs”) debt as per current debt arrangements as of February 28, 2014 and does not represent estimates of future cash payments that will be made to reduce debt balances. Many JV loans have extension options in the loan agreements that would allow the loans to be extended into future years.

A subsidiary in our Rialto segment had an approximately 5% investment in the Servicer Provider, which provides services to the consolidated LLCs, among others. As of November 30, 2013, the carrying value of the our investment in the Servicer Provider was $8.3 million. In January 2014, Rialto acquired 100% of the loan servicing business segment of the Servicer Provider in exchange for our 5% investment interest. At acquisition date, the fair value of the assets acquired were $20.8 million, the goodwill recorded was $5.1 million and the fair value of the liabilities assumed were $17.6 million.

Fund I had equity commitments and contributions of $700 million (including $75 million by us). All capital commitments have been called and funded, and Fund I is closed to additional commitments. During the three months ended February 28, 2014 and 2013, we received distributions of $3.2 million and $7.7 million, respectively, as a return of capital from Fund I. As of February 28, 2014 and November 30, 2013, the carrying value of our investment in Fund I was $77.6 million and $75.7 million, respectively. For the three months ended February 28, 2014 and 2013, our share of earnings from Fund I was $5.1 million and $6.4 million, respectively. As manager of Fund I, we are entitled to receive additional revenue through a carried interest if Fund I meets certain performance thresholds. If Fund I had ceased operations and liquidated all its investments for their estimated fair values on February 28, 2014, we would have received $90.2 million with regard to our carried interest. However, Fund I did not cease operations and liquidate its investments on February 28, 2014, and the ultimate sum we will receive with regard to

our carried interest in Fund I may be substantially higher or lower than $90.2 million. No amount has been recorded in our consolidated statement of operations with regard to our carried interest in Fund I.

Fund II's objective during its three-year investment period is to invest in distressed real estate assets and other related investments that fit Fund II's investment parameters. As of February 28, 2014, Fund II was closed to additional commitments with equity commitments of $1.3 billion, including $100 million by us. During the three months ended February 28, 2014, $148.6 million of the $1.3 billion in equity commitments was called, none of which was called from us due to new investors coming in to Fund II. During the three months ended February 28, 2014, we received distributions of $2.0 million as a return of capital from Fund II. As of February 28, 2014 and November 30, 2013, the carrying value of our investment in Fund II was $51.2 million and $53.1 million, respectively.

Summarized condensed financial information on a combined 100% basis related to Rialto’s investments in unconsolidated entities that are accounted for by the equity method was as follows:

Lennar Multifamily: Investments in Unconsolidated Entities

At February 28, 2014 and November 30, 2013, we had equity investments in 16 and 13 unconsolidated entities, respectively, (all of which had non-recourse debt). We invest in unconsolidated entities that acquire and develop land to construct multifamily rental properties. Through these entities, we are focusing on developing a geographically diversified portfolio of institutional quality multifamily rental properties in select U.S. markets. Participants in these joint ventures have been financial partners. Joint ventures with financial partners have allowed us to combine our development and construction expertise with access to our partners’ capital. Each joint venture is governed by an operating agreement that provides significant substantive participating voting rights on major decisions to our partners.

The joint ventures are typically structured through non-corporate entities in which control is shared with our venture partners. Each joint venture is unique in terms of its funding requirements and liquidity needs. We and the other joint venture participants typically make pro-rata cash contributions to the joint venture except for cost overruns relating to the construction of the project. In all cases, we have been required to provide guarantees of completion and cost over-runs to the lenders and partners. These completion guarantees may require us to complete the improvements for which the financing was obtained. Therefore, our risk is limited to our equity contribution, draws on letters of credit and potential future payments under the guarantees of completion and cost overruns. In certain instances, payments made under the cost overrun guarantee is considered a capital contribution.

Additionally, the joint ventures obtain third-party debt to fund a portion of the acquisition, development and construction costs of the rental projects. The joint venture agreements usually permit, but do not require, the joint ventures to make additional capital calls in the future. However, the joint venture debt does not have payment or maintenance guarantees. Neither we nor the other equity partners are a party to the debt instruments. In some cases, we agree to provide credit support in the form of a letter of credit provided to the bank.

We regularly monitor the results of our unconsolidated joint ventures and any trends that may affect their future liquidity or results of operations. We also monitor the performance of joint ventures in which we have investments on a regular basis to assess compliance with debt covenants. For those joint ventures not in compliance with the debt covenants, we evaluate and assess possible impairment of our investment. All of the joint ventures were in compliance with their debt covenants at February 28, 2014.

Under the terms of our joint venture agreements, we generally have the right to share in earnings and distributions of the entities on a pro-rata basis based on our ownership percentages. Some joint venture agreements provide for a different allocation of profit and cash distributions if and when the cumulative results of the joint venture exceed specified targets (such as a specified internal rate of return).

In many instances, we are designated as the development manager and/or the general contractor of the unconsolidated entity and receive fees for such services. In addition, we do not plan to enter into option and purchase contracts to acquire properties from our joint ventures.

Our arrangements with joint ventures generally do not restrict our activities or those of the other participants. However, in certain instances, we agree not to engage in some types of activities that may be viewed as competitive with the activities of these ventures in the localities where the joint ventures do business.

Material contractual obligations of our unconsolidated joint ventures primarily relate to the debt obligations described above. The joint ventures generally do not enter into lease commitments because the entities are managed either by us, who supply the necessary facilities and employee services in exchange for market-based management fees. However, they do enter into management contracts with the participants who manage them.

As described above, the liquidity needs of joint ventures in which we have investments vary on an entity-by-entity basis depending on each entity’s purpose and the stage in its life cycle. During formation and development activities, the entities generally require cash, which is provided through a combination of equity contributions and debt financing, to fund acquisition, development and construction of multifamily rental properties. As the properties are completed and sold, cash generated will be available to repay debt and for distribution to the joint venture’s members. Thus, the amount of cash available for a joint venture to distribute at any given time is primarily a function of the scope of the joint venture’s activities and the stage in the joint venture’s life cycle.

We track our share of cumulative earnings and cumulative distributions of our joint ventures. For purposes of classifying distributions received from joint ventures in our statements of cash flows, cumulative distributions are treated as returns on capital to the extent of cumulative earnings and included in our consolidated statements of cash flows as cash flows from operating activities. Cumulative distributions in excess of our share of cumulative earnings are treated as returns of capital and included in our consolidated statements of cash flows as cash flows from investing activities.

Summarized financial information on a combined 100% basis related to Lennar Multifamily’s unconsolidated entities that are accounted for by the equity method was as follows:

Option Contracts

We have access to land through option contracts, which generally enables us to control portions of properties owned by third parties (including land funds) and unconsolidated entities until we have determined whether to exercise the options.

The table below indicates the number of homesites owned and homesites to which we had access through option contracts with third parties (“optioned”) or unconsolidated JVs (i.e., controlled homesites) at February 28, 2014 and 2013:



	Controlled Homesites
February 28, 2014	Optioned	JVs	Total	Owned Homesites	Total Homesites
East	6,229	376	6,605	43,165	49,770
Central	4,950	1,135	6,085	20,539	26,624

Houston	821	57	878	13,318	14,196

Total homesites	17,220	7,373	24,593	129,579	154,172



	Controlled Homesites
February 28, 2013	Optioned	JVs	Total	Owned Homesites	Total Homesites
East	4,709	283	4,992	35,241	40,233
Central	3,293	1,175	4,468	18,290	22,758
West	2,345	5,803	8,148	32,011	40,159
Southeast Florida	1,925	351	2,276	8,281	10,557
Houston	1,143	272	1,415	12,356	13,771
Other	1,205	38	1,243	5,889	7,132
Total homesites	14,620	7,922	22,542	112,068	134,610

We evaluate all option contracts for land to determine whether they are VIEs and, if so, whether we are the primary beneficiary of certain of these option contracts. Although we do not have legal title to the optioned land, if we are deemed to be the primary beneficiary, or make a significant deposit for optioned land, we may need to consolidate the land under option at the purchase price of the optioned land. During the three months ended February 28, 2014, the effect of take-downs and consolidation of option contracts was a net decrease of $63.0 million to consolidated inventory not owned with a corresponding decrease to liabilities related to consolidated inventory not owned in our condensed consolidated balance sheet as of February 28, 2014. The decrease was primarily due to the purchase of land that was the subject of a previously consolidated option contract, partially offset by the consolidation of a new option contract due to a significant nominal dollar deposit placed on the future purchase of homesites. To reflect the purchase price of the inventory consolidated, we had a net reclass related to option deposits from consolidated inventory not owned to land under development in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of February 28, 2014. The liabilities related to consolidated inventory not owned primarily represent the difference between the option exercise prices for the optioned land and our cash deposits.

Our exposure to loss related to our option contracts with third parties and unconsolidated entities consisted of our non-refundable option deposits and pre-acquisitions costs totaling $111.9 million and $129.2 million, at February 28, 2014 and November 30, 2013, respectively. Additionally, we had posted $28.0 million and $29.9 million, of letters of credit in lieu of cash deposits under certain option contracts as of February 28, 2014 and November 30, 2013, respectively.

Contractual Obligations and Commercial Commitments

During the three months ended February 28, 2014, we issued $500 million aggregate principal amount of 4.50% Senior Notes. The following summarizes our contractual debt obligations as of February 28, 2014:

(1)	Some of the senior notes and other debts payable are convertible senior notes, which have been included in this table based on maturity dates, but they are putable to, or callable by, us at earlier dates than as the maturities dates disclosed in this table.


(2)	Interest commitments on variable interest-bearing debt are determined based on the interest rate as of February 28, 2014.


(3)	Amount includes notes payable and other debts payable of $57.8 million related to the RMF warehouse repurchase financing agreements and also includes $250 million related to 7.00% Senior Notes issued in November 2013.


(4)	Amount includes $49.4 million of commitments to fund Rialto segment's Fund II, $51.7 million of commitments to fund loans in RMF, $67.5 million of remaining commitments to fund a homebuilding unconsolidated entity that was formed in 2013 for further expenses up until the unconsolidated entity obtains permanent financing and $2.0 million related to Lennar Multifamily notes payable.


(5)	Total contractual obligations excludes our gross unrecognized tax benefits and accrued interest and penalties totaling $32.8 million as of February 28, 2014, because we are unable to make reasonable estimates as to the period of cash settlement with the respective taxing authorities.

We are subject to the usual obligations associated with entering into contracts (including option contracts) for the purchase, development and sale of real estate in the routine conduct of our business. Option contracts for the purchase of land generally enable us to defer acquiring portions of properties owned by third parties and unconsolidated entities until we have determined whether to exercise our options. This reduces our financial risk associated with land holdings. At February 28, 2014, we had access to 24,593 homesites through option contracts with third parties and unconsolidated entities in which we have investments. At February 28, 2014, we had $111.9 million of non-refundable option deposits and pre-acquisition costs related to certain of these homesites and had posted $28.0 million of letters of credit in lieu of cash deposits under certain option contracts.

At February 28, 2014, we had letters of credit outstanding in the amount of $407.4 million (which included the $28.0 million of letters of credit discussed above). These letters of credit are generally posted either with regulatory bodies to guarantee our performance of certain development and construction activities, or in lieu of cash deposits on option contracts, for insurance risks, credit enhancements and as other collateral. Additionally, at February 28, 2014, we had outstanding performance and surety bonds related to site improvements at various projects (including certain projects in our joint ventures) of $759.4 million. Although significant development and construction activities have been completed related to these site improvements, these bonds are generally not released until all of the development and construction activities are completed. As of February 28, 2014, there were approximately $341.9 million, or 45%, of anticipated future costs to complete related to these site improvements. We do not presently anticipate any draws upon these bonds or letters of credit, but if any such draws occur, we do not believe they would have a material effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Our Lennar Financial Services segment had a pipeline of loan applications in process of $1.2 billion at February 28, 2014. Loans in process for which interest rates were committed to the borrowers and builder commitments for loan programs totaled approximately $339.7 million as of February 28, 2014. Substantially all of these commitments were for periods of 60 days or less. Since a portion of these commitments is expected to expire without being exercised by the borrowers or because borrowers may not meet certain criteria at the time of closing, the total commitments do not necessarily represent future cash requirements.

Our Lennar Financial Services segment uses mandatory mortgage-backed securities (“MBS”) forward commitments, option contracts and investor commitments to hedge our mortgage-related interest rate exposure. These instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk. Credit risk associated with MBS forward commitments, option contracts and loan sales transactions is managed by limiting our counterparties to investment banks, federally regulated bank

affiliates and other investors meeting our credit standards. Our risk, in the event of default by the purchaser, is the difference between the contract price and fair value of the MBS forward commitments and option contracts. At February 28, 2014, we had open commitments amounting to $535.0 million to sell MBS with varying settlement dates through May 2014.

(3) New Accounting Pronouncements

See Note 17 of our condensed consolidated financial statements included under Item 1 of this Report for a discussion of new accounting pronouncements applicable to our Company.

(4) Critical Accounting Policies

We believe that there have been no significant changes to our critical accounting policies during the three months ended February 28, 2014 as compared to those we disclosed in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, for the year ended November 30, 2013.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

We are exposed to market risks related to fluctuations in interest rates on our investments, debt obligations, loans held-for-sale and loans held-for-investment. We utilize forward commitments and option contracts to mitigate the risks associated with our mortgage loan portfolio. During the first quarter of 2014, we issued $500 million of 4.50% senior notes due June 2019.
