Lennar Corporation and Subsidiaries

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, 2016. 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, 2017 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

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.

Reclassifications/Revisions

As a result of the Company's change in reportable segments during fiscal year 2016, the Company restated certain prior year amounts in the condensed consolidated financial statements to conform with the 2017 presentation (see Note 3). In addition, certain prior year amounts in the condensed consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform with the 2017 presentation. These reclassifications had no impact on the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements.


(2)	Business Acquisition

On February 10, 2017, the Company acquired WCI Communities, Inc. ("WCI") a luxury homebuilder of single and multi-family homes, including a small percentage of luxury high-rise tower units, with operations in Florida. WCI stockholders received $642.6 million in cash. The cash consideration was funded primarily from working capital and from proceeds from the issuance of 4.125% senior notes due 2022 (see Note 12).

Based on an evaluation of the provisions of ASC Topic 805, Business Combinations, ("ASC 805"), Lennar Corporation was determined to be the acquirer for accounting purposes. The following table summarizes the provisional purchase price allocation based on the estimated fair value of net assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the date of acquisition, which are subject to change within a measurement period of up to one year from the acquisition date pursuant to ASC 805. The purchase price allocation is provisional pending completion of the fair value analysis of acquired assets and liabilities assumed:



(In thousands)
Assets:
Cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash and receivables, net	$	42,079
Inventories	621,008
Intangible assets (1)	48,000
Goodwill (2)	163,298
Deferred tax assets, net	87,326
Other assets	66,173
Total assets	1,027,884
Liabilities:
Accounts payable	26,735
Senior notes and other debts payable	282,804
Other liabilities	75,723
Total liabilities	385,262
Total purchase price	$	642,622


(1)	Intangible assets include non-compete agreements and a trade name. The amortization period for these intangible assets is up to one year for the non-compete agreements and 20 years for the trade name.

(2)

Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed, and it is not deductible for income tax purposes. As of the merger date, goodwill consisted primarily of purchasing and other synergies resulting from the merger, expected production, savings in corporate and division overhead costs and expected expanded opportunities for growth through a higher-end more luxurious product, greater presence in the state of Florida and customer diversity. The provisional amount of goodwill allocated to the Company's Homebuilding East segment was $143.3 million and to the Lennar Financial Services segment was $20.0 million. These provisional amounts were based on the relative fair value of each acquired reporting unit in accordance with ASC 350, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other.

Lennar Homebuilding revenue and net earnings attributable to Lennar for the three months ended February 28, 2017 included $19.5 million of home sales revenue and $8.9 million of a pre-tax loss from WCI from the date of acquisition to February 28, 2017, which included transaction expenses of $11.0 million comprised mainly of severance costs. These transaction expenses were included primarily within Lennar Homebuilding selling, general and administrative expenses within the accompanying condensed consolidated statement of operations for the three months ended February 28, 2017. The pro-forma effect of the acquisition on the results of operations is not presented as this acquisition was not considered material.


(3)	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) Lennar Financial Services

(5) Rialto

(6) 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 loss due to litigation accrual of the segment.

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

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

Central: Arizona, Colorado and Texas

West: California and Nevada

Other: Illinois, Minnesota, Oregon, Tennessee and Washington


(1)	Florida includes the financial information related to WCI from the date of acquisition (February 10, 2017) to February 28, 2017.

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 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 real estate related securities as well as providing strategic real estate capital. Rialto’s operating earnings consist of revenues generated primarily from gains from securitization transactions and interest income from the Rialto Mortgage Finance ("RMF") business, interest income associated with portfolios of real estate loans acquired and other portfolios of real estate loans and assets acquired, asset management, due diligence and underwriting fees derived from the real estate investment funds managed by the Rialto segment, fees for sub-advisory services, other income (expense), net and equity in earnings (loss) from unconsolidated entities, less the costs incurred by the segment for managing portfolios, costs related to RMF 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 and equity in earnings (loss) from unconsolidated entities, less the cost of sales of land, expenses related to construction activities 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, 2016. 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.

(4)	Lennar Homebuilding Investments in Unconsolidated Entities

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:

Net earnings (loss) of unconsolidated entities	$	(32,930	)	2,526
Lennar Homebuilding equity in earnings (loss) from unconsolidated entities	$	(11,534	)	3,000

For the three months ended February 28, 2017, Lennar Homebuilding equity in loss from unconsolidated entities was primarily attributable to the Company’s share of net operating losses from its unconsolidated entities. The operating losses from the Company's unconsolidated entities were primarily driven by general and administrative expenses, as there were not sufficient land sale transactions to offset those expenses during the three months ended February 28, 2017.

For the three months ended February 29, 2016, Lennar Homebuilding equity in earnings included $6.0 million of equity in earnings from one of the Company's unconsolidated entities primarily due to sales of approximately 220 homesites to third parties.

(1)	Debt presented above is net of debt issuance costs of $6.1 million and $4.2 million, as of February 28, 2017 and November 30, 2016, respectively.

On May 2, 2016 (the "Closing Date"), the Company contributed, or obtained the right to contribute, its investment in three strategic joint ventures previously managed by FivePoint Communities in exchange for an investment in a FivePoint entity. The fair values of the assets contributed to this FivePoint entity, included within the unconsolidated entities summarized condensed balance sheet presented above, are preliminary and may be adjusted when additional information is obtained during the transaction’s measurement period (a period of up to one year from the Closing Date) that may change the fair value allocation as of the acquisition date. A portion of the assets of one of the three strategic joint ventures transferred to a new unconsolidated entity was retained by Lennar and its venture partner. The transactions did not have a material impact to the Company’s financial position or cash flows for the year ended November 30, 2016. For the year ended November 30, 2016, the Company recorded $42.6 million of its share of combination costs and operational net losses in equity in loss from unconsolidated entities on the consolidated statement of operations.

As of February 28, 2017 and November 30, 2016, the Company’s recorded investments in Lennar Homebuilding unconsolidated entities were $910.1 million and $811.7 million, respectively, while the underlying equity in Lennar Homebuilding unconsolidated entities partners’ net assets as of February 28, 2017 and November 30, 2016 was $1.3 billion and $1.2 billion, respectively. The basis difference is primarily as a result of the Company contributing its investment in three strategic joint ventures with a higher fair value than book value for an investment in the FivePoint entity and deferring equity in earnings on land sales to the Company.

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:



(Dollars in thousands)	February 28, 2017			November 30, 2016
Non-recourse bank debt and other debt (partner’s share of several recourse)	$	72,162		48,945
Non-recourse land seller debt and other debt (1)	3,995			323,995
Non-recourse debt with completion guarantees	298,319			147,100
Non-recourse debt without completion guarantees	325,115			320,372
Non-recourse debt to the Company	699,591			840,412
The Company’s maximum recourse exposure (2)	77,119			52,438
Debt issuance costs	(6,123		)	(4,186	)
Total debt	$	770,587		888,664
The Company’s maximum recourse exposure as a % of total JV debt	10		%	6	%


(1)	Non-recourse land seller debt and other debt as of November 30, 2016 included a $320 million non-recourse note related to a transaction between one of the Company's unconsolidated entities and another unconsolidated joint venture, which was settled in December 2016.


(2)	As of February 28, 2017, the Company's maximum recourse exposure was primarily related to the Company providing repayment guarantees on three unconsolidated entities' debt.

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. 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 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.

If the Company is required to make a payment under any 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.

As of both February 28, 2017 and November 30, 2016, the fair values of the repayment guarantees and completion guarantees were not material. The Company believes that as of February 28, 2017, 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, the collateral would 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 with regard to obligations of its joint ventures (see Note 12).


(5)	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, 2017 and February 29, 2016:

(6)	Income Taxes

The provision for income taxes and effective tax rate were as follows:



	Three Months Ended
	February 28,			February 29,
(Dollars in thousands)	2017			2016
Provision for income taxes	$	(19,969	)	(56,241	)
Effective tax rate (1)	34.40		%	28.08	%

(1)

For the three months ended February 28, 2017, the effective tax rate included tax benefits for the domestic production activities deduction and energy tax credits, offset primarily by state income tax expense. For the three months ended February 29, 2016, the effective tax rate included tax benefits for (1) a settlement with the IRS, (2) the domestic production activities deduction, and (3) energy tax credits, offset primarily by state income tax expense.

As of February 28, 2017 and November 30, 2016, the Company's deferred tax assets, net included in the condensed consolidated balance sheets were $424.2 million and $277.4 million, respectively. As of February 28, 2017, the Company's deferred tax assets, net included the provisional amount of $87.3 million related to the WCI acquisition.

At both February 28, 2017 and November 30, 2016, the Company had $12.3 million of gross unrecognized tax benefits.

At February 28, 2017, the Company had $46.8 million accrued for interest and penalties, of which $0.8 million was accrued during the three months ended February 28, 2017. At November 30, 2016, the Company had $46.0 million accrued for interest and penalties.


(7)	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

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



(In thousands)	February 28, 2017		November 30, 2016

	$	788,339	1,318,283


(1)	Receivables, net primarily related to loans sold to investors for which the Company had not yet been paid as of February 28, 2017 and November 30, 2016, respectively.


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


(3)	Investments available-for-sale are carried at fair value with changes in fair value recorded as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss).


(4)	As of February 28, 2017, goodwill included $20.0 million of goodwill related to the WCI acquisition. The amount provided herein is provisional, pending completion of the fair value analysis of WCI's acquired assets and liabilities assumed. See Note 2.


(5)	As of February 28, 2017 and November 30, 2016, other assets included mortgage loan commitments carried at fair value of $13.7 million and $7.4 million, respectively, and mortgage servicing rights carried at fair value of $26.5 million and $23.9 million, respectively. In addition, other assets also included forward contracts carried at fair value of $26.5 million as of November 30, 2016.


(6)	As of February 28, 2017 and November 30, 2016, other liabilities included $57.5 million and $57.4 million, respectively, of certain of the Company’s self-insurance reserves related to construction defects, general liability and workers’ compensation. Other liabilities also included forward contracts carried at fair value of $1.7 million as of February 28, 2017.

At February 28, 2017, the Lennar Financial Services segment warehouse facilities were as follows:



(In thousands)	Maximum Aggregate Commitment
364-day warehouse repurchase facility that matures June 2017	$	400,000
364-day warehouse repurchase facility that matures September 2017	300,000
364-day warehouse repurchase facility that matures December 2017 (1)	400,000
Total	$	1,100,000


(1)	Maximum aggregate commitment includes an uncommitted amount of $250 million.

The Lennar Financial Services segment uses these facilities to finance its lending activities until the mortgage loans are sold to investors and the proceeds are collected. The facilities are non-recourse to the Company and are expected to be renewed or replaced with other facilities when they mature. Borrowings under the facilities and their prior year predecessors were $560.0 million and $1.1 billion at February 28, 2017 and November 30, 2016, respectively, and were collateralized by mortgage loans and receivables on loans sold to investors but not yet paid for with outstanding principal balances of $582.0 million and $1.1 billion at February 28, 2017 and November 30, 2016, respectively. If the facilities are not renewed or replaced, 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 for. Without the facilities, the Lennar Financial Services segment would have to use cash from operations and other funding sources to finance its lending activities.

Substantially, all of the loans the Lennar Financial Services segment originates are sold within a short period in the secondary mortgage market 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. Over the last several years there has been an industry-wide effort by purchasers to defray their losses

by purporting to have found inaccuracies related to sellers’ representations and warranties in particular loan sale agreements. Mortgage investors could seek to have the Company buy back mortgage loans or compensate them for losses incurred on mortgage loans that the Company has sold based on claims that the Company breached its limited representations or warranties. The Company’s mortgage operations have established accruals for possible losses associated with mortgage loans previously originated and sold to investors. The Company establishes accruals 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 Company's condensed consolidated balance sheets.

The activity in the Company’s loan origination liabilities was as follows:



	Three Months Ended

(9)	Rialto Segment

The assets and liabilities related to the Rialto segment were as follows:



(In thousands)	February 28, 2017		November 30, 2016
Assets:
Cash and cash equivalents	$	162,513	148,827

Other	54,078		85,645
	$	680,120	707,980


(1)	Restricted cash primarily consists of upfront deposits and application fees RMF receives before originating loans and is recognized as income once the loan has been originated, as well as cash held in escrow by the Company’s loan servicer provider on behalf of customers and lenders and is disbursed in accordance with agreements between the transacting parties.


(2)	Receivables, net primarily related to loans sold but not settled as of February 28, 2017 and November 30, 2016.


(3)	Loans held-for-sale related to unsold loans originated by RMF carried at fair value.


(4)	As of February 28, 2017 and November 30, 2016, notes and other debts payable primarily included $348.9 million and $348.7 million, respectively, related to Rialto's 7.00% senior notes due 2018, and $197.1 million and 223.5 million, respectively, related to Rialto's warehouse repurchase facilities.

Rialto Mortgage Finance - loans held-for-sale

During the three months ended February 28, 2017, RMF originated loans with a total principal balance of $403.7 million of which $394.3 million were recorded as loans held-for-sale and $9.3 million were recorded as accrual loans within loans receivable, net, and sold $477.7 million of loans into three separate securitizations. During the three months ended February 29, 2016, RMF originated loans with a total principal balance of $315.3 million of which $305.8 million were recorded as loans held-for-sale and $9.5 million as accrual loans within loans receivables, net, and sold $380.2 million of loans into two separate securitizations. As of February 28, 2017 and November 30, 2016, originated loans with an unpaid principal balance of $195.8 million and $199.8 million, respectively, were sold into a securitization trust but not settled and thus were included as receivables, net.

FDIC Portfolios

In 2010, the Rialto segment acquired indirectly 40% managing member equity interests in two limited liability companies ("LLCs") in partnership with the FDIC ("FDIC Portfolios"). 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 the activities of the LLCs that most significantly impact the LLCs' performance through Rialto's management and servicer contracts.

In February 2017, the FDIC exercised its “clean-up call rights” under the Amended and Restated Limited Liability Company Agreement (“Operating Agreement”). As a result, Rialto has 150 days to liquidate and sell the assets in the FDIC Portfolios in accordance with the Operating Agreement. After July 10, 2017, the FDIC can, at its discretion, sell any remaining assets. At February 28, 2017, the consolidated LLCs had total combined assets of $173.2 million, which primarily included $116.7 million of real estate owned, net and $32.0 million of loans receivable, net.

Warehouse Facilities

At February 28, 2017, Rialto warehouse facilities were as follows:



(In thousands)	Maximum Aggregate Commitment
364-day warehouse repurchase facility that matures April 2017 (1)	$	500,000
Warehouse repurchase facility that matures December 2017	200,000
364-day warehouse repurchase facility that matures January 2018	250,000
Total - Loan origination and securitization business (RMF)	$	950,000
Warehouse repurchase facility that matures August 2018 (two - one year extensions) (2)	100,000
Total	$	1,050,000


(1)	Rialto has the option of a six month extension of the warehouse repurchase facility.


(2)	Rialto uses this warehouse repurchase facility to finance the origination of floating rate accrual loans, which are reported as accrual loans within loans receivable, net. Borrowings under this facility were $43.3 million as of both February 28, 2017 and November 30, 2016.

Borrowings under the facilities that finance RMF's loan originations and securitization activities were $153.8 million and $180.2 million as of February 28, 2017 and November 30, 2016, respectively, and were secured by a 75% interest in the originated commercial loans financed. The facilities require immediate repayment of the 75% interest in the secured commercial loans when the loans are sold in a securitization and the proceeds are collected. These warehouse repurchase facilities are non-recourse to the Company and are expected to be renewed or replaced with other facilities when they mature.

Investments

Generally, 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 assets and liabilities of the funds in which Rialto has investments in are recorded at fair value with increases/decreases in fair value recorded in their respective statements of operations and the Company’s share is recorded in Rialto equity in earnings from unconsolidated entities in the Company's statement of operations.

The following table reflects Rialto's investments in funds that invest in and manage real estate related assets and other investments:



								February 28, 2017		February 28, 2017		November 30, 2016

During the three months ended February 28, 2017 and February 29, 2016, Rialto received $0.9 million and $4.9 million, respectively, of advance distributions with regard to Rialto's carried interests in its real estate funds in order to cover income tax obligations resulting from allocations of taxable income to Rialto's carried interests in these funds. In addition, Rialto received $10.0 million of distributions with regard to its carried interest in Rialto Real Estate Fund, LP. These distributions are not subject to clawbacks and therefore are included in Rialto's revenues.

During 2015, Rialto adopted a Carried Interest Incentive Plan (the "Plan"), under which participating employees in the aggregate may receive up to 40% of the equity units of a limited liability company (a "Carried Interest Entity") that is entitled to carried interest distributions made by a fund or other investment vehicle (a "Fund") managed by a subsidiary of Rialto. As such, those employees receiving equity units in a Carried Interest Entity may benefit from distributions made by a Fund to the extent the Carried Interest Entity makes distributions to its equity holders. The units issued to employees are equity awards and are subject to vesting schedules and forfeiture or repurchase provisions in the case of a termination of employment.

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:

At February 28, 2017 and November 30, 2016, the carrying value of Rialto's commercial mortgage-backed securities ("CMBS") was $112.2 million and $71.3 million, respectively. These securities were purchased at discounts ranging from 9% to 78% with coupon rates ranging from 1.3% to 4.4%, stated and assumed final distribution dates between November 2020 and February 2027, and stated maturity dates between November 2043 and March 2059. The Rialto segment reviews changes in estimated cash flows periodically to determine if an other-than-temporary impairment has occurred on its CMBS. Based on the Rialto segment’s assessment, no impairment charges were recorded during either the three months ended February 28, 2017 or February 29, 2016. The Rialto segment classified these securities as held-to-maturity based on its intent and ability to hold the securities until maturity.


(10)	Lennar Multifamily Segment

The Company is actively involved, primarily through unconsolidated entities, in the development, construction and property management 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.

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

(1)	Receivables primarily related to general contractor services and management fee income receivables due from unconsolidated entities as of February 28, 2017 and November 30, 2016, respectively.

The unconsolidated entities in which the Lennar Multifamily segment 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) has 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 as construction cost over-runs would be paid by the Company. Generally, these payments would be increases to the Company's investment in the entities and would increase its share of funds the entities distribute after the achievement of certain thresholds. As of both February 28, 2017 and November 30, 2016, the fair value of the completion guarantees was immaterial. Additionally, as of February 28, 2017 and November 30, 2016, the Lennar Multifamily segment had $18.3 million and $32.0 million, respectively, of letters of credit outstanding primarily for credit enhancements for the bank debt of certain of its unconsolidated entities and deposits on land purchase contracts. These letters of credit outstanding are included in the disclosure in Note 12 related to the Company's performance and financial letters of credit. As of February 28, 2017 and November 30, 2016, Lennar Multifamily segment's unconsolidated entities had non-recourse debt with completion guarantees of $665.5 million and $589.4 million, respectively.

In many instances, the Lennar Multifamily segment is appointed as the construction, development and property manager for certain of its Lennar Multifamily unconsolidated entities and receives fees for performing this function. During the three months ended February 28, 2017 and February 29, 2016, the Lennar Multifamily segment recorded fee income, net of deferrals, from its unconsolidated entities of $13.0 million and $8.1 million, respectively.

The Lennar Multifamily segment also provides general contractor services for construction of some of the rental properties owned by unconsolidated entities in which the Company has an investment. During the three months ended February 28, 2017 and February 29, 2016, the Lennar Multifamily segment provided general contractor services totaling $75.7 million and $31.4 million, respectively, which were partially offset by costs related to those services of $73.7 million and $30.6 million, respectively.

The Lennar Multifamily Venture (the "Venture") is a long-term multifamily development investment vehicle involved in the development, construction and property management of class-A multifamily assets with $2.2 billion in equity commitments, including a $504 million co-investment commitment by Lennar comprised of cash, undeveloped land and preacquisition costs. During the three months ended February 28, 2017, $150.7 million in equity commitments were called, of which the Company contributed $33.9 million representing the Company's pro-rata portion of the called equity. During the three months ended February 28, 2017, the Company received no distributions as a return of capital from the Venture. As of February 28, 2017, $1.1 billion of the $2.2 billion in equity commitments had been called, of which the Company had contributed $249.7 million representing its pro-rata portion of the called equity, resulting in a remaining equity commitment for the Company of $254.3 million. As of February 28, 2017 and November 30, 2016, the carrying value of the Company's investment in the Venture was $230.0 million and $198.2 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:

(1)	The Company assumed the 6.875% senior notes due 2021 (the" 6.875% Senior Notes") as a result of the WCI acquisition. The 6.875% Senior Notes were recorded at fair value with a principal outstanding amount of $249.8 million and are callable beginning August 2017 at declining premiums until maturity.

The carrying amounts of the senior notes listed above are net of debt issuance costs of $25.1 million and $22.1 million, as of February 28, 2017 and November 30, 2016, respectively.

At February 28, 2017, the Company had an unsecured revolving credit facility (the "Credit Facility") with maximum borrowings of $1.8 billion. The maturity for $1.3 billion of the Credit Facility is in June 2020, with the remaining $160 million maturing in June 2018. As of February 28, 2017, the Credit Facility included a $298 million accordion feature, subject to additional commitments, with certain financial institutions. 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 agreement also provides that up to $500 million in commitments may be used for letters of credit. Under the Credit Facility agreement, the Company is required to maintain a minimum consolidated tangible net worth, a maximum leverage ratio and either a liquidity or an interest coverage ratio. These ratios are calculated per the Credit Facility agreement, which involves adjustments to GAAP financial measures. The Company believes it was in compliance with its debt covenants at February 28, 2017. In addition, the Company had $320 million letter of credit facilities with different financial institutions.

The Company’s performance letters of credit outstanding were $290.6 million and $270.8 million, respectively, at February 28, 2017 and November 30, 2016. The Company’s financial letters of credit outstanding were $141.1 million and $210.3 million, at February 28, 2017 and November 30, 2016, respectively. 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, 2017, the Company had outstanding surety bonds of $1.4 billion including performance surety bonds related to site improvements at various projects (including certain projects in the Company’s joint ventures) and financial surety bonds including $223.4 million related to pending litigation. 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, 2017, there were approximately $530.3 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 January 2017, the Company issued $600 million aggregate principal amount of 4.125% senior notes due 2022 (the "4.125% Senior Notes") at a price of 100%. Proceeds from the offering, after payment of expenses, were $595.2 million. The Company used the net proceeds from the sales of the 4.125% Senior Notes to fund a portion of the cash consideration for the Company's acquisition of WCI and to pay for costs and expenses related to this acquisition as well as for general corporate purposes. Interest on the 4.125% Senior Notes is due semi-annually beginning July 15, 2017. The 4.125% Senior Notes are unsecured and unsubordinated, but are guaranteed by substantially all of the Company's 100% owned homebuilding subsidiaries.

The Company's senior notes are guaranteed by substantially all of the Company's 100% owned homebuilding subsidiaries and some of the Company's other subsidiaries. Although the guarantees 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 Lennar Homebuilding other liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. The activity in the Company’s warranty reserve was as follows:

(14)	Share-Based Payments

During both the three months ended February 28, 2017 and February 29, 2016, the Company granted an immaterial number of nonvested shares. Compensation expense related to the Company’s nonvested shares for the three months ended February 28, 2017 and February 29, 2016 was $12.5 million and $11.1 million, respectively.


(15)	Financial Instruments and Fair Value Disclosures

The following table presents the carrying amounts and estimated fair values of financial instruments held by the Company at February 28, 2017 and November 30, 2016, 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 and liquidity of these instruments.

Lennar Financial Services notes and other debts payable	Level 2	$	560,275	560,275	1,077,228	1,077,228

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

Rialto—The fair values for loans receivable, net are based on the fair value of the collateral less estimated cost to sell or discounted cash flows, if estimable. 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-term 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. For notes and other debts payable, the fair values approximate their carrying value due to variable interest pricing terms and the short-term nature of the borrowings.

Lennar Homebuilding—For senior notes and other debts payable, the fair value of fixed-rate borrowings is primarily 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.

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:



(In thousands)	Fair Value Hierarchy	Fair Value at February 28, 2017			Fair Value at November 30, 2016
Rialto Financial Assets:
Loans held-for-sale (1)	Level 3	$	44,939		126,947

(1)	The aggregate fair value of Rialto loans held-for-sale of $44.9 million at February 28, 2017 exceeds their aggregate principal balance of $44.2 million by $0.7 million. The aggregate fair value of loans held-for-sale of $126.9 million at November 30, 2016 was below their aggregate principal balance of $127.8 million by $0.9 million.


(2)	Rialto's credit default swaps are included within Rialto's other assets.


(3)	Rialto's interest rate swaps and swap futures are included within Rialto's other liabilities.


(4)	The aggregate fair value of Lennar Financial Services loans held-for-sale of $682.0 million at February 28, 2017 exceeds their aggregate principal balance of $660.3 million by $21.7 million. The aggregate fair value of Lennar Financial Services loans held-for-sale of $939.4 million at November 30, 2016 exceeded their aggregate principal balance of $931.0 million by $8.4 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:

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

Rialto interest rate swaps and swap futures- The fair value of interest rate swaps (derivatives) is based on observable values for underlying interest rates and market determined risk premiums. The fair value of interest rate swap futures (derivatives) is based on quoted market prices for similar investments traded in active markets.

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, 2017 and November 30, 2016. Fair value of servicing rights is determined based on actual sales of servicing rights on loans with similar characteristics.

Lennar Financial Services investments available-for-sale- The fair value of these investments is based on the quoted market prices for similar financial instruments.

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.

Lennar Financial Services forward contracts- Fair value is based on quoted market prices for similar financial instruments. The fair value of forward contracts is included in the Lennar Financial Services segment's other liabilities as of February 28, 2017. The fair value of forward contracts is included in the Lennar Financial Services segment's other assets as of November 30, 2016.

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, 2017, the segment had open commitments amounting to $1.1 billion to sell MBS with varying settlement dates through May 2017.

Lennar Financial Services mortgage servicing rights- Lennar Financial Services records mortgage servicing rights when it sells loans on a servicing-retained basis or through the acquisition or assumption of the right to service a financial asset. The fair value of the mortgage servicing rights is calculated using third-party valuations. The key assumptions, which are generally unobservable inputs, used in the valuation of the mortgage servicing rights include mortgage prepayment rates, discount rates and delinquency rates. As of February 28, 2017, the key assumptions used in determining the fair value include a 12.7% mortgage prepayment rate, a 12.4% discount rate and a 7.0% delinquency rate. The fair value of mortgage servicing rights is included in the Lennar Financial Services segment's other assets.

(2)	Valuation adjustments were included in Lennar Homebuilding costs and expenses in the Company's condensed consolidated statement of operations for the three months ended February 29, 2016.

(3)

The fair value of REO, net is based upon appraised value at the time of foreclosure or management's best estimate. In addition, management periodically performs valuations of its REO. The gains (losses), net upon the transfer or acquisition of REO and impairments were included in Rialto other expense, net, in the Company’s condensed consolidated statement of operations for the three months ended February 28, 2017 and February 29, 2016.

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. The Company disclosed its accounting policy related to inventories and its review for indicators of impairments in the Summary of Significant Accounting Policies in its Form 10-K for the year ended November 30, 2016.

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, changes in market conditions and other specific developments or changes in assumptions may cause the Company to re-evaluate its strategy regarding previously impaired inventory, as well as inventory not currently impaired but for which indicators of impairment may arise if market deterioration occurs, and certain other assets that could result in further valuation adjustments and/or additional write-offs of option deposits and pre-acquisition costs due to abandonment of those options contracts.

On a quarterly basis, the Company reviews its active communities for indicators of potential impairments. As of February 28, 2017 and February 29, 2016, there were 750 and 681 active communities, excluding unconsolidated entities, respectively. As of February 28, 2017, the Company identified 16 communities with 589 homesites and a corresponding carrying value of $102.9 million as having potential indicators of impairment. As of February 29, 2016, the Company identified 28 communities with 1,178 homesites and a corresponding carrying value of $169.8 million as having potential indicators of impairment. For the three months ended February 28, 2017 and February 29, 2016, the Company recorded no impairments.


(16)	Variable Interest Entities

The Company evaluated the agreements of its joint ventures that were formed or that had reconsideration events during the three months ended February 28, 2017. Based on the Company's evaluation, during the three months ended February 28, 2017, there were no VIEs that were consolidated or deconsolidated.

The Company’s recorded investments in unconsolidated entities were as follows:



(In thousands)	February 28, 2017		November 30, 2016
Lennar Homebuilding	$	910,084	811,723
Rialto	$	235,066	245,741
Lennar Multifamily	$	346,767	318,559

Consolidated VIEs

As of February 28, 2017, the carrying amounts of the VIEs’ assets and non-recourse liabilities that consolidated were $651.1 million and $170.1 million, respectively. As of November 30, 2016, the carrying amounts of the VIEs’ assets and non-recourse liabilities that consolidated were $536.3 million and $126.4 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 the Company’s senior notes and other debts payable. 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 investments in VIEs that are unconsolidated and its estimated maximum exposure to loss were as follows:

As of February 28, 2017



(In thousands)	Investments in Unconsolidated VIEs		Lennar’s Maximum Exposure to Loss
Lennar Homebuilding (1)	$	209,343	280,602
Rialto (2)	112,216		112,216
Lennar Multifamily (3)	272,399		542,719
	$	593,958	935,537

As of November 30, 2016



(In thousands)	Investments in Unconsolidated VIEs		Lennar’s Maximum Exposure to Loss
Lennar Homebuilding (1)	$	120,940	164,804
Rialto (2)	71,260		71,260
Lennar Multifamily (3)	240,928		549,093
	$	433,128	785,157


(1)	At both February 28, 2017 and November 30, 2016, the maximum exposure to loss of Lennar Homebuilding’s investments in unconsolidated VIEs was limited to its investments in the unconsolidated VIEs, except with regard to repayment guarantees of two unconsolidated entities' debt of $69.5 million and $43.4 million, respectively.

(2)

At both February 28, 2017 and November 30, 2016, the maximum recourse exposure to loss of Rialto’s investments in unconsolidated VIEs was limited to its investments in the unconsolidated VIEs. At February 28, 2017 and November 30, 2016, investments in unconsolidated VIEs and Lennar’s maximum exposure to loss included $112.2 million and $71.3 million, respectively, related to Rialto’s investments held-to-maturity.

(3)

As of February 28, 2017 and November 30, 2016, the remaining equity commitment of $254.3 million and $288.2 million, respectively, to fund the Venture for future expenditures related to the construction and development of its projects is included in Lennar's maximum exposure to loss. In addition, at February 28, 2017 and November 30, 2016, the maximum exposure to loss of Lennar Multifamily's investments in unconsolidated VIEs was limited to its investments in the unconsolidated VIEs, except with regard to $15.1 million and $19.7 million, respectively, of letters of credit outstanding for certain of the unconsolidated VIEs that could be drawn upon in the event of default under their debt agreements.

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.

As of February 28, 2017, the Company and other partners did not have an obligation to make capital contributions to the VIEs, except for $254.3 million remaining equity commitment to fund the Venture for future expenditures related to the construction and development of the projects and $15.1 million of letters of credit outstanding for certain Lennar Multifamily unconsolidated VIEs that could be drawn upon in the event of default under their debt agreements. In addition, 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 $69.5 million repayment guarantees of two unconsolidated entities' debt. Except for the unconsolidated VIEs discussed above, the Company and the other partners did not guarantee any debt of the other unconsolidated VIEs. 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.

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, 2017, consolidated inventory not owned increased by $35.1 million with a corresponding increase to liabilities related to consolidated inventory not owned in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of February 28, 2017. The increase was as a result of litigation where the Company may be required to purchase a property in Maryland (see Note 17), partially offset by homesite takedowns. 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, 2017. 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 $73.6 million and $85.0 million at February 28, 2017 and November 30, 2016, respectively. Additionally, the Company had posted $40.6 million and $45.1 million of letters of credit in lieu of cash deposits under certain land and option contracts as of February 28, 2017 and November 30, 2016, respectively.


(17)	Commitments and Contingent Liabilities

The Company is party to various claims, legal actions and complaints arising in the ordinary course of business. In the opinion of management, the disposition of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements. The Company is also a party to various lawsuits involving purchases and sales of real property. These lawsuits include claims regarding representations and warranties made in connection with the transfer of properties and disputes regarding the obligation to purchase or sell properties.

The Company has been engaged in litigation since 2008 in the United States District Court for the District of Maryland regarding whether the Company is required by a contract it entered into in 2005 to purchase a property in Maryland. After entering into the contract, the Company later renegotiated the purchase price during the downturn, reducing it from $200 million to $134 million, $20 million of which has been paid and subsequently written off, leaving a balance of $114 million. In January 2015, the District Court rendered a decision ordering the Company to purchase the property for the $114 million balance of the contract price, to pay interest at the rate of 12% per annum from May 27, 2008, and to reimburse the seller for real estate taxes and attorneys’ fees. The Company believed the decision was contrary to applicable law and appealed the decision.

On March 23, 2017, the United States Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit held oral argument in the appeal. The timing of a final decision is uncertain. While the Company continues to believe the trial court decision is contrary to applicable law, after assessment of the oral argument, the Company has concluded that it is appropriate to establish an accrual of $140 million for the litigation. The accrual represents the high end of the range of expected liability associated with the litigation. This accrual will be charged against first quarter earnings. In addition to the accrual, the Company would be required to purchase the property, which is the subject of the litigation, for $114 million, which approximates the Company's estimate of the fair value of the property. If the District Court decision is reversed on appeal, the Company will not have to purchase the property or pay interest, real estate taxes or attorneys’ fees, and the accrual will be reversed. If the appellate court directs further proceedings at the trial court level, the accrual may be reduced depending on the basis for the decision and the direction given to the trial court.


(18)	New Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, ("ASU 2014-09"). ASU 2014-09 provides a single comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers and supersedes most current revenue recognition guidance, including industry-specific guidance. ASU 2014-09 will require an entity to recognize revenue when it transfers promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. This update creates a five-step model that requires entities to exercise judgment when considering the terms of the contract(s) which include (i) identifying the contract(s) with the customer, (ii) identifying the separate performance obligations in the contract, (iii) determining the transaction price, (iv) allocating the transaction price to the separate performance obligations, and (v) recognizing revenue when each performance obligation is satisfied. In July 2015, the FASB deferred the effective date by one year and permitted early adoption of the standard, but not before the original effective date; therefore, ASU 2014-09 will be effective for the Company’s fiscal year beginning December 1, 2018 and subsequent interim periods. The Company has the option to apply the provisions of ASU 2014-09 either retrospectively to each prior reporting period presented or retrospectively with the cumulative effect of applying this ASU recognized at the date of initial application. The Company is continuing to evaluate the method and impact the adoption of ASU 2014-09 will have on its condensed consolidated financial statements.

Subsequent to the issuance of ASU 2014-09, the FASB has issued several ASUs such as ASU 2016-08, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Principal versus Agent Considerations (Reporting Revenue Gross versus Net), ASU 2016-09, Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting, and ASU 2016-12, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Narrow-Scope Improvements and Practical Expedients among others. These ASUs do not change the core principle of the guidance stated in ASU 2014-09, instead these amendments are intended to clarify and improve operability of certain topics included within the revenue standard. These ASUs will have the same effective date and transition requirements as ASU 2014-09. The Company is continuing to evaluate the method and impact the adoption of these ASUs and ASU 2014-09 will have on its condensed consolidated financial statements.

In February 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-02, Consolidation (Topic 810): Amendments to the Consolidation Analysis ("ASU 2015-02"). ASU 2015-02 amends the consolidation requirements and significantly changes the consolidation analysis required. ASU 2015-02 requires management to reevaluate all legal entities under a revised consolidation model specifically (i) modify the evaluation of whether limited partnership and similar legal entities are VIEs, (ii) eliminate the presumption that a general partner should consolidate a limited partnership, (iii) affect the consolidation analysis of reporting entities that are involved with VIEs particularly those that have fee arrangements and related party relationships, and (iv) provide a scope exception from consolidation guidance for reporting entities with interests in legal entities that are required to comply with or operate in accordance with requirements that are similar to those in Rule 2a-7 of the Investment Act of 1940 for registered money market funds. ASU 2015-02 was effective for the Company’s fiscal year beginning December 1, 2016 and subsequent interim periods. The adoption of ASU 2015-02 did not have a material effect on the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements.

In September 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-16, Simplifying the Accounting for Measurement-Period Adjustments ("ASU 2015-16"). ASU 2015-16 requires an acquirer to recognize adjustments to provisional amounts that are identified during the measurement period in the reporting period in which the adjustment amounts are determined. ASU 2015-16 will be effective for the Company’s fiscal year beginning December 1, 2017 and subsequent interim periods. The adoption of ASU 2015-16 is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-01, Financial Instruments - Overall: Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities ("ASU 2016-01"). ASU 2016-01 modifies how entities measure equity investments and present changes in the fair value of financial liabilities. Under the new guidance, entities will have to measure equity investments that do not result in consolidation and are not accounted for under the equity method at fair value and recognize any changes in fair value in net income unless the investments qualify for the new practicality exception. A practicality exception will apply to those equity investments that do not have a readily determinable fair value and do not qualify for the practical expedient to estimate fair value under ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements, and as such these investments may be measured at cost. ASU 2016-01 will be effective for the Company’s fiscal year beginning December 1, 2018 and subsequent interim periods. The adoption of ASU 2016-01 is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases ("ASU 2016-02"), which provides guidance for accounting for leases. ASU 2016-02 requires lessees to classify leases as either finance or operating leases and to record a right-of-use asset and a lease liability for all leases with a term greater than 12 months regardless of the lease classification. The lease classification will determine whether the lease expense is recognized based on an effective interest rate method or on a straight line basis over the term of the lease. Accounting for lessors remains largely unchanged from current GAAP. ASU 2016-02 will

be effective for the Company’s fiscal year beginning December 1, 2019 and subsequent interim periods. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of ASU 2016-02 will have on its condensed consolidated financial statements.

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-07, Investments- Equity Method and Joint Ventures: Simplifying the Transition to the Equity Method of Accounting ("ASU 2016-07"). ASU 2016-07 eliminates the requirement to apply the equity method of accounting retrospectively when a reporting entity obtains significant influence over a previously held investment. ASU 2016-07 will be effective for the Company’s fiscal year beginning December 1, 2017 and subsequent interim periods. The adoption of ASU 2016-07 is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09, Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting ("ASU 2016-09"). ASU 2016-09 simplifies several aspects related to the accounting for share-based payment transactions, including the accounting for income taxes, statutory tax withholding requirements and classification on the statement of cash flows. ASU 2016-09 will be effective for the Company’s fiscal year beginning December 1, 2017 and subsequent interim periods. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact of ASU 2016-09 but the Company does not expect it to have a material impact on its condensed consolidated financial statements.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments ("ASU 2016-13"). ASU 2016-13 significantly changes the impairment model for most financial assets and certain other instruments. ASU 2016-13 will require immediate recognition of estimated credit losses expected to occur over the remaining life of many financial assets, which will generally result in earlier recognition of allowances for credit losses on loans and other financial instruments. ASU 2016-13 is effective for the Company's fiscal year beginning December 1, 2020 and subsequent interim periods. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of ASU 2016-13 will have on its condensed consolidated financial statements.

In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230), Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments ("ASU 2016-15"). ASU 2016-15 reduces the existing diversity in practice in financial reporting across all industries by clarifying certain existing principles in ASC 230, Statement of Cash Flows, including providing additional guidance on how and what an entity should consider in determining the classification of certain cash flows. ASU 2016-15 will be effective for the Company’s fiscal year beginning December 1, 2018 and subsequent interim periods. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. The adoption of ASU 2016-15 will modify the Company's current disclosures and reclassifications within the condensed consolidated statement of cash flows but is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-18, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230), Restricted Cash ("ASU 2016-18"). ASU 2016-18 clarifies certain existing principles in ASC 230, Statement of Cash Flows, including providing additional guidance related to transfers between cash and restricted cash and how entities present, in their statement of cash flows, the cash receipts and cash payments that directly affect the restricted cash accounts. ASU 2016-18 will be effective for the Company’s fiscal year beginning December 1, 2018 and subsequent interim periods. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. The adoption of ASU 2016-18 will modify the Company's current disclosures and reclassifications within the condensed consolidated statement of cash flows but is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-01, Business Combinations (Topic 805), Clarifying the Definition of a Business ("ASU 2017-01"). ASU 2017-01 clarifies the definition of a business with the objective of addressing whether transactions involving in-substance nonfinancial assets, held directly or in a subsidiary, should be accounted for as acquisitions or disposals of nonfinancial assets or of businesses. ASU 2017-01 will be effective for the Company’s fiscal year beginning December 1, 2018 and subsequent interim periods. Early adoption is permitted for transactions, including acquisitions or dispositions, which occurred before the issuance date or effective date of the standard if the transactions were not reported in financial statements that have been issued or made available for issuance. The adoption of ASU 2017-01 is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350), Simplifying the Accounting for Goodwill Impairment ("ASU 2017-04"). ASU 2017-04 removes the requirement to perform a hypothetical purchase price allocation to measure goodwill impairment. A goodwill impairment will now be the amount by which a reporting unit's carrying value exceeds its fair value, not to exceed the carrying amount of goodwill. ASU 2017-04 will be effective for the Company’s fiscal year beginning December 1, 2020. Early adoption is permitted for interim or annual goodwill impairment tests performed on testing dates after January 1, 2017. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of ASU 2017-04 will have on its condensed consolidated financial statements.


(19)	Supplemental Financial Information

The indentures governing the Company’s 12.25% senior notes due 2017, 4.75% senior notes due 2017, 6.95% senior notes due 2018, 4.125% senior notes due 2018, 4.500% senior notes due 2019, 4.50% senior notes due 2019, 4.750% senior notes due 2021, 6.875% senior notes due 2021, 4.125% senior notes due 2022, 4.750% senior notes due 2022, 4.875% senior notes due 2023 and 4.750% senior notes due 2025 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 are not finance company subsidiaries or foreign subsidiaries and were guaranteeing the senior notes because at February 28, 2017 they were guaranteeing Lennar Corporation's letter of credit facilities and its Credit Facility, disclosed in Note 12. In addition, effective February 10, 2017, in connection with the acquisition of WCI, the Company agreed to become a co-issuer of the 6.875% senior notes due 2021 that were issued by WCI and guaranteed by several of its wholly-owned subsidiaries. Because WCI and those subsidiaries are in effect guarantors of the Company’s obligations as a co-issuer of the 6.875% senior notes due 2021, most of those subsidiaries must also guarantee the Company’s obligations with regard to its senior notes. As such, WCI and its subsidiaries are included in the subsidiaries that are referred to as “Guarantor Subsidiaries” in the following tables. The separate assets and liabilities of WCI and its subsidiaries are set forth in Note 2. 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 at any time when it is not directly or indirectly guaranteeing at least $75 million principal amount 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. Distributions of capital received by the Parent from its subsidiaries are reflected as cash flows from investing activities. The cash outflows associated with the return on investment dividends and distributions of capital 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.

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, 2016.

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. Forward-looking statements contained herein may include opinions formed based upon general observations, anecdotal evidence and industry experience, but that are not supported by specific investigation or analysis. 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 seems to be giving way to a more definitive reversion to normal, and the drivers behind such recovery; our expectation that we will be positioned for increased pricing power as a result of the drivers of the housing recovery; our expectation that demand will continue to build and come to the market over the next few years and that it should drive increased production; our expectation that we will continue to be focused on generating strong operating margins on the homes we sell; our expectation that we will see lower gross margins in the second quarter of 2017 compared to the second quarter of 2016; our expectation regarding our growth rate in 2017; our expectation that we plan to continue to identify and invest in land opportunities that we expect will drive our future growth and profitability; our belief that our main driver of earnings will continue to be our Homebuilding and Lennar Financial Services operations; our belief that we are currently positioned to deliver between 29,500 and 30,000 homes in fiscal 2017; our expectation regarding the Lennar Multifamily segment’s development pipeline, and plans regarding the Multifamily Venture; our expectation regarding variability in our quarterly results; 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; our belief regarding legal proceedings in which we are involved, and, in particular, our belief that the Court's decision in the Settlers Crossing case is contrary to applicable law; and our estimates regarding certain tax and accounting matters, including 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. 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: increases in operating costs, including costs related to labor, construction materials, real estate taxes, and insurance, and our ability to manage our cost structure, both in our Homebuilding and Lennar Multifamily businesses; unfavorable outcomes in legal proceedings that substantially exceed our expectations; the possibility that we will incur nonrecurring costs that may not have a material adverse effect on our business or financial condition, but may have a material adverse effect on our condensed consolidated financial statements for a particular reporting period; our ability to acquire land and pursue real estate opportunities at anticipated prices; our inability to maximize returns on the assets that we acquired in the WCI Communities, Inc. ("WCI") acquisition; a slowdown in the recovery of real estate markets across the nation, or any 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; decreased demand for our Lennar Multifamily rental properties, and our ability to successfully sell our rental properties; the ability of our Lennar Financial Services segment to maintain or increase its capture rate and benefit from Lennar home deliveries; our ability to successfully execute our strategies, including strategies related to our soft-pivot and reinvigorating technologies in our business; 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 carrying value of our real estate assets; our ability to successfully develop multifamily assets in the Multifamily Venture; our inability to maintain anticipated pricing levels and our inability to predict the effect of interest rates on demand; the ability and willingness 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; our inability to successfully grow our ancillary businesses; the inability of Rialto to sell mortgages it originates into securitizations on favorable terms; potential liability under environmental or construction laws, or other laws or regulations affecting our business; regulatory changes that adversely affect the profitability of our businesses; our ability to comply with the terms of our debt instruments, our ability to refinance our debt on terms that are acceptable to us; and

our ability to successfully estimate the impact of certain regulatory, accounting and tax matters, including whether we will continue to benefit from the energy efficient home and energy tax credits.

Please see our Form 10-K, for the fiscal year ended November 30, 2016 and other filings with the SEC for a further discussion of these and other risks and uncertainties which could affect our future results. We undertake no obligation, other than those imposed by securities laws, 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.

This Management’s Discussion and Analysis and other portions of this Report contain statements of opinion or belief regarding market conditions and similar matters. In many instances those opinions and beliefs are based upon general observations by members of our management, anecdotal evidence and our experience in the conduct of our businesses, without specific investigation or statistical analyses. Therefore, while they reflect our view of the industries and markets in which we are involved, they should not be viewed as reflecting verifiable views that are necessarily shared by all who are involved in those industries or markets.

Outlook

We believe that the slow and steady, though sometimes erratic, positive homebuilding market seems to be giving way to a more definitive reversion to normal as we have seen a combination of renewed optimism, wage and job growth, and consumer confidence since November's election. We believe the new home market continues to have significant pent-up demand, though stronger in some markets than in others. The recovery is also sustained by stronger general economic conditions, low interest rates and low unemployment levels and combined with tight inventory levels, should position us for increased pricing power. We expect that demand will continue to build and come to the market over the next few years and that it should drive increased production as the deficit in the housing stock ultimately needs to be replenished. Nevertheless, land and labor shortages for certain trades will continue to be limiting factors and will constrain supply and restrict the ability to quickly respond to growing demand, while the mortgage market and higher rents will continue to limit that demand due to potential homebuyers having less disposable income and limited ability to finance a new home purchase.

As the recovery continues to mature, we continue to execute on our carefully crafted operating strategies of moderating our growth rate and focusing on our soft-pivot land program, which coupled with our strong profitability, will drive operating cash flows and a strong balance sheet. We continue to match production with sales pace and with our acquisition of WCI, we expect a slight increase in our 2017 growth rate compared to prior year.

Our core homebuilding business continued to produce solid operating results in the first quarter of 2017 as our operating margin was 10.8%, notwithstanding a lower gross margin in the quarter, as expected. Our first quarter new orders and home deliveries increased 12% and 13% year-over-year, to 6,483 homes and 5,453 homes, respectively. Fueled by our digital marketing efforts, and other initiatives as well, we continue to focus on operational efficiencies as our S,G&A expenses as a percentage of home sales is at a historic, first-quarter low.

Complementing our homebuilding segment, we had strong performances from most of our other business segments during the first quarter of 2017. Our Lennar Financial Services segment reported earnings of $20.7 million in the first quarter of 2017, a 38% increase from the same period last year, primarily due to increased volume and profitability in the segment's title operations. For the sixth consecutive quarter, our Multifamily segment generated positive earnings. During the first quarter of 2017, earnings were $19.2 million primarily due to the sale of two completed rental properties by its joint ventures.

Our Rialto segment continued to grow. During the first quarter, our Rialto Mortgage Finance ("RMF") business continued to be a market leader in securitization margins and has seen an increase in its origination volumes and margins.

In the second quarter of 2017, our principal focus in our homebuilding operations will continue to be on generating strong operating margins on the homes we sell by delivering homes from what we believe are favorable land positions and by benefiting from our focus on migrating from traditional to digital marketing. We expect to continue to see somewhat lower gross margins in the second quarter of 2017 compared to the second quarter of 2016 due to cost increases outpacing sales price increases and competitive pressures, as well as the impact from writing up WCI's backlog as part of purchase accounting. Consistent with our soft-pivot land strategy, we plan to continue to identify and invest in unique and enticing land opportunities that we expect will drive our future growth and profitability, including ramping up our first-time homebuyer land positions as that segment of the market continues to improve. We expect that our Company’s main driver of earnings will continue to be our homebuilding and financial services operations as we believe we are currently positioned to deliver between 29,500 and 30,000 homes in fiscal 2017.

(1) Results of Operations

Overview

We historically have experienced, and expect to continue to experience, variability in quarterly results. Our results of operations for the three months ended February 28, 2017 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 experienced several years ago, can alter seasonal patterns.

Our net earnings attributable to Lennar were $38.1 million, or $0.16 per diluted share ($0.16 per basic share) in the first quarter of 2017, which included a net loss due to a litigation accrual of $0.40 per diluted share and a net loss related to WCI of $0.03 per diluted share, primarily due to transaction expenses. This compared to net earnings attributable to Lennar of $144.1 million, or $0.63 per diluted share ($0.68 per basic share) in the first quarter of 2016, which included a favorable $0.05 per diluted share impact due to a lower tax rate.

Three Months Ended February 28, 2017 versus Three Months Ended February 29, 2016

On February 10, 2017, Lennar Corporation completed its acquisition of WCI. The results of operations include activity related to WCI from February 10, 2017 to February 28, 2017. Prior year information includes only stand-alone data for Lennar Corporation for the three months ended February 29, 2016.

Revenues from home sales increased 13% in the first quarter of 2017 to $2.0 billion from $1.8 billion in the first quarter of 2016. Revenues were higher primarily due to a 13% increase in the number of home deliveries, excluding unconsolidated entities. New home deliveries, excluding unconsolidated entities, increased to 5,433 homes in the first quarter of 2017 from 4,806 homes in the first quarter of 2016. There was an increase in home deliveries in all of our Homebuilding segments and Homebuilding Other, except in Homebuilding West that was slightly down from prior year due to the timing of opening new communities. The increase in the number of deliveries was primarily driven by an increase in active communities over the last year. The average sales price of homes delivered was $365,000 in the first quarter of 2017, consistent with the first quarter of 2016. Sales incentives offered to homebuyers were $22,700 per home delivered in the first quarter of 2017, or 5.9% as a percentage of home sales revenue, compared to $21,600 per home delivered in the first quarter of 2016, or 5.6% as a percentage of home sales revenue, and $23,700 in the fourth quarter of 2016, or 6.2% as a percentage of home sales revenue.

Gross margins on home sales were $419.2 million, or 21.1%, in the first quarter of 2017, compared to $398.9 million, or 22.7%, in the first quarter of 2016. Gross margin percentage on home sales decreased compared to the first quarter of 2016 primarily due to an increase in land and construction costs per home.

Selling, general and administrative expenses were $204.0 million in the first quarter of 2017, which included approximately $10 million of transaction expenses related to the WCI acquisition, mainly offset by other one-time legal and insurance benefits. In the first quarter of 2016, selling, general and administrative expenses were $189.8 million. As a percentage of revenues from home sales, selling, general and administrative expenses improved to 10.3% in the first quarter of 2017 from 10.8% in the first quarter of 2016, due to improved operating leverage as a result of an increase in home deliveries and benefits from our investments in technology.

Gross profits on land sales were $2.0 million in the first quarter of 2017, compared to $9.2 million in the first quarter of 2016.

Lennar Homebuilding equity in earnings (loss) from unconsolidated entities was ($11.5) million in the first quarter of 2017, compared to $3.0 million in the first quarter of 2016. In the first quarter of 2017, Lennar Homebuilding equity in loss from unconsolidated entities was primarily attributable to our share of net operating losses from our unconsolidated entities. The operating losses from our unconsolidated entities were primarily driven by general and administrative expenses, as there were not sufficient land sale transactions to offset those expenses during the first quarter of 2017. In the first quarter of 2016, Lennar Homebuilding equity in earnings from unconsolidated entities included $6.0 million of equity in earnings from one of our unconsolidated entities primarily due to sales of homesites to third parties, partially offset by our share of net operating losses from various Lennar Homebuilding unconsolidated entities.

Lennar Homebuilding other income (expense), net, was $5.7 million in the first quarter of 2017, compared to ($0.6) million in the first quarter of 2016.

Lennar Homebuilding loss due to litigation accrual of $140 million is related to an accrual recorded for litigation as described in Note 17 of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and Part II, Other Information, Item 1, Legal Proceedings, of this Form 10-Q.

Lennar Homebuilding interest expense was $52.4 million in the first quarter of 2017 ($48.7 million was included in costs of homes sold, $2.4 million in costs of land sold and $1.2 million in other income (expense), net), compared to $45.2 million in the first quarter of 2016 ($43.4 million was included in costs of homes sold, $0.7 million in costs of land sold and $1.2 million in other income (expense), net). Interest expense included in costs of homes sold increased primarily due to an increase in home deliveries.

Operating earnings for our Lennar Financial Services segment were $20.7 million in the first quarter of 2017, compared to $14.9 million in the first quarter of 2016. The increase in profitability was primarily due to increased volume and profitability in the title operations.

Operating earnings for our Rialto segment were $12.0 million in the first quarter of 2017 (which included a $0.8 million operating loss and an add back of $12.9 million of net loss attributable to noncontrolling interests). Operating earnings in the first quarter of 2016 were $1.9 million (which included $1.6 million of operating earnings and an add back of $0.3 million of net loss attributable to noncontrolling interests). In the first quarter of 2017, Rialto's operations were driven by RMF as a result of increased number of securitizations, as well as higher securitization volume and margins. This was partially offset by increased general and administrative expenses, loan impairments and real estate owned ("REO") impairments.

Operating earnings for our Lennar Multifamily segment were $19.2 million in the first quarter of 2017, compared to $12.2 million in the first quarter of 2016. The increase in profitability was primarily due to the segment's $26.0 million share of gains related to the sale of two operating properties by its unconsolidated entities in the first quarter of 2017, compared to the segment's $20.4 million share of a gain as a result of the sale of one operating property by one of its unconsolidated entities in the first quarter of 2016.

Corporate general and administrative expenses were $60.7 million, or 2.6% as a percentage of total revenues, in the first quarter of 2017, compared to $47.7 million, or 2.4% as a percentage of total revenues, in the first quarter of 2016.

Net earnings (loss) attributable to noncontrolling interests were ($8.4) million and $1.4 million in the first quarter of 2017 and 2016, respectively. Net loss attributable to noncontrolling interests during the first quarter of 2017 was primarily attributable to a net loss related to the FDIC's interest in the portfolio of real estate loans that we acquired in partnership with the FDIC, partially offset by net earnings related to the Lennar Homebuilding consolidated joint ventures. Net earnings attributable to noncontrolling interests in the first quarter of 2016 were primarily attributable to earnings related to Lennar Homebuilding consolidated joint ventures, partially offset by a net loss related to the FDIC's interest in the portfolio of real estate loans that we acquired in partnership with the FDIC.

In the first quarter of 2017 and 2016, we had a tax provision of $20.0 million and $56.2 million, respectively. Our overall effective income tax rates were 34.40% and 28.08% in the first quarter of 2017 and 2016, respectively. The effective tax rate for both the first quarter of 2017 and 2016 included tax benefits for the domestic production activities deduction and energy tax credits, offset primarily by state income tax expense. The tax rate for the first quarter of 2016 included the reversal of an accrual due to a settlement with the IRS, which reduced our effective tax rate by (5.42%).

Homebuilding Segments

We have aggregated our homebuilding activities into three reportable segments, which we refer to as Homebuilding East, Homebuilding Central, and Homebuilding West, 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 three reportable segments.

As a result of our change in reportable segments during fiscal year 2016, we restated certain prior year amounts in the condensed consolidated financial statements to conform with the 2017 presentation. This change had no impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements for the periods presented.

At February 28, 2017, 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

West: California and Nevada

Other: Illinois, Minnesota, Oregon, Tennessee and Washington

(1)Florida includes the financial information related to WCI from the date of acquisition (February 10, 2017) to February 28, 2017.

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

Three Months Ended February 28, 2017 versus Three Months Ended February 29, 2016

Homebuilding East: Revenues from home sales increased for the three months ended February 28, 2017 compared to the three months ended February 29, 2016, primarily due to an increase in the number of home deliveries in all the states in the segment, except Georgia. The increase in the number of deliveries was primarily driven by an increase in active communities over the last year. The decrease in the number of deliveries in Georgia was primarily as a result of fewer active communities due to the timing of opening and closing of communities. Gross margin percentage on home sales for the three months ended February 28, 2017 decreased compared to the same period last year primarily due to an increase in land and direct construction costs per home and an increase in sales incentives offered to homebuyers as a percentage of revenues from home sales.

Homebuilding Central: Revenues from home sales increased for the three months ended February 28, 2017 compared to the three months ended February 29, 2016, primarily due to an increase in the number of home deliveries and in the average sales price of homes delivered in all the states in the 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 due to favorable market conditions and a change in product mix (selling at different price points) driven by an increase in home deliveries in higher-priced communities in the three months ended February 28, 2017 as some of our lower-priced communities closed-out. Gross margin percentage on home sales for the three months ended February 28, 2017 increased compared to the same period last year primarily due to an increase in the average sales price of homes delivered and a decrease in sales incentives offered to homebuyers as a percentage of revenues from home sales.

Homebuilding West: Revenues from home sales remained consistent for the three months ended February 28, 2017 compared to the three months ended February 29, 2016, as the slight increase in the average sales price of homes delivered was offset by a slight decrease in the number of home deliveries. The increase in the average sales price of homes delivered was primarily due to a change in product mix and because we have been able to increase the sales prices in certain of our communities due to favorable market conditions. The slight decrease in the number of deliveries was primarily driven by the timing of opening and closing of communities. Gross margin percentage on home sales for the three months ended February 28, 2017 decreased compared to the same period last year primarily due to an increase in land and construction costs per home and an increase in sales incentives offered to homebuyers as a percentage of revenues from home sales.

Homebuilding Other: Revenues from home sales increased for the three months ended February 28, 2017 compared to the three months ended February 29, 2016, primarily due to an increase the number of home deliveries, partially offset by a decrease in the average sales price of homes delivered in all the states in Homebuilding Other, except Washington where average sales price increased. The increase in the number of deliveries was primarily driven by higher demand as the number of deliveries per active community increased. The decrease in the average sales price of homes delivered was primarily driven by

a change in product mix due to closing out the remaining homes in higher-priced communities and opening lower-priced communities for the three months ended February 28, 2017. The increase in the average sales price of homes delivered in Washington was primarily due to favorable market conditions. Gross margin percentage on home sales for the three months ended February 28, 2017 increased compared to the same period last year primarily due to a decrease in construction and land costs per home, partially offset by a decrease in the average sales price of homes delivered as a result of the change in product mix discussed previously. In addition, there was a decrease in sales incentives offered to homebuyers as a percentage of revenues from home sales.

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. Our 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.

As part of the WCI acquisition in February 2017, Lennar Financial Services acquired a real estate brokerage business under the Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices brand. This division operates only in Florida and should not have a material impact to the segment.

The following table sets forth selected financial and operational information related to our Lennar Financial Services segment:

Rialto 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 selling into securitizations 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 continued 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.

Rialto's operating earnings (loss) were as follows:



	Three Months Ended
	February 28,			February 29,
(In thousands)	2017			2016
Revenues	$	82,006		43,711
Costs and expenses (1)	66,913			42,907

Rialto other expense, net (2)	(16,658		)	(691	)
Operating earnings (loss) (3)	$	(843	)	1,610


(1)	Costs and expenses included loan impairments of $12.7 million and $2.3 million for the three months ended February 28, 2017 and February 29, 2016, respectively, primarily associated with the segment's FDIC loans portfolio (before noncontrolling interests).


(2)	Rialto other expense, net, included REO impairments of $12.3 million and $2.9 million for the three months ended February 28, 2017 and February 29, 2016, respectively.


(3)	Operating loss for the three months ended February 28, 2017 included net loss attributable to noncontrolling interests of $12.9 million. Operating earnings for the three months ended February 29, 2016 included net loss attributable to noncontrolling interests of $0.3 million.

Rialto Mortgage Finance

RMF originates and sells 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. This business has become a significant contributor to Rialto's revenues.

During the three months ended February 28, 2017, RMF originated loans with a total principal balance of $403.7 million of which $394.3 million were recorded as loans held-for-sale and $9.3 million as accrual loans within loans receivable, net, and sold $477.7 million of loans into three separate securitizations. During the three months ended February 29, 2016, RMF originated loans with a total principal balance of $315.3 million of which $305.8 million were recorded as loans held-for-sale and $9.5 million as accrual loans within loans receivable, net, and sold $380.2 million of loans into two separate securitizations.

FDIC Portfolios

In 2010, Rialto acquired indirectly 40% managing member equity interests in two limited liability companies ("LLCs") in partnership with the FDIC ("FDIC Portfolios"). The LLCs met the accounting definition of VIEs and since the Company was determined to be the primary beneficiary, the Company consolidated the LLCs. In February 2017, the FDIC exercised its “clean-up call rights” under the Amended and Restated Limited Liability Company Agreement (“Operating Agreement”). As a result, Rialto has 150 days to liquidate and sell the assets in the FDIC Portfolios in accordance with the Operating Agreement. After July 10, 2017, the FDIC can, at its discretion, sell any remaining assets. At February 28, 2017, the consolidated LLCs had total combined assets of $173.2 million, which primarily included $116.7 million of real estate owned, net and $32.0 million of loans receivable, net.

Investments

Rialto is the sponsor of and an investor in private equity vehicles that invest in and manage real estate related assets and other related investments. This includes:



Private Equity Vehicle	Inception Year	Commitment
Rialto Real Estate Fund, LP	2010	$700 million (including $75 million by us)
Rialto Real Estate Fund II, LP	2012	$1.3 billion (including $100 million by us)
Rialto Mezzanine Partners Fund, LP	2013	$300 million (including $34 million by us)

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.

Lennar Multifamily Segment

We have been actively involved, primarily through unconsolidated entities, in the development, construction and property management of multifamily rental properties. Our 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, 2017 and November 30, 2016, our balance sheet had $610.2 million and $526.1 million, respectively, of assets related to our Lennar Multifamily segment, which included investments in unconsolidated entities of $346.8 million and $318.6 million, respectively. Our net investment in the Lennar Multifamily segment as of February 28, 2017 and November 30, 2016 was $504.6 million and $408.2 million, respectively. During the three months ended February 28, 2017 and February 29, 2016, our Lennar Multifamily segment sold two operating properties and one operating property, respectively, through its unconsolidated entities resulting in the segment's $26.0 million and $20.4 million share of gains, respectively.

Our Lennar Multifamily segment had equity investments in 29 and 28 unconsolidated entities (including the Lennar Multifamily Venture, the "Venture") as of February 28, 2017 and November 30, 2016, respectively. As of February 28, 2017, our Lennar Multifamily segment had interests in 55 communities with development costs of $5.2 billion, of which three communities were completed and operating, 17 communities were partially completed and leasing, 24 communities were under construction and the remaining communities were either owned or under contract. As of February 28, 2017, our Lennar Multifamily segment also had a pipeline of potential future projects totaling $2.6 billion in assets across a number of states that will be developed primarily by future unconsolidated entities.

(2) Financial Condition and Capital Resources

At February 28, 2017, we had cash and cash equivalents related to our homebuilding, financial services, Rialto and multifamily operations of $929.1 million, compared to $1.3 billion at November 30, 2016 and $720.5 million at February 29, 2016.

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 cash borrowed under our warehouse lines of credit and our credit facility.

Operating Cash Flow Activities

During the three months ended February 28, 2017 and February 29, 2016, cash provided by (used in) operating activities totaled $79.3 million and ($215.9) million, respectively. During the three months ended February 28, 2017, cash provided by operating activities was positively impacted by our net earnings, a decrease in loans held-for-sale of which $82.1 million related to RMF and $257.4 million related to Lennar Financial Services, and a decrease in receivables and other assets, partially offset by an increase in inventories due to strategic land purchases, land development and construction costs. For the three months ended February 28, 2017, distributions of earnings from unconsolidated entities were (1) $24.7 million from Lennar Multifamily unconsolidated entities, (2) $6.3 million from Rialto unconsolidated entities, and (3) $0.9 million from Lennar Homebuilding unconsolidated entities entities.

During the three months ended February 29, 2016, cash used in operating activities was impacted by an increase in inventories due to strategic land purchases and land development and construction costs and a decrease in accounts payable and other liabilities, partially offset by our net earnings, a decrease in receivables and a decrease in loans held-for-sale of which $157.6 million related to Lennar Financial Services and $70.7 million related to RMF. For the three months ended February 29, 2016, distributions of earnings were (1) $20.2 million from Lennar Multifamily unconsolidated entities, (2) $6.8 million from Rialto unconsolidated entities, and (3) $0.2 million from Lennar Homebuilding unconsolidated entities

Investing Cash Flow Activities

During the three months ended February 28, 2017 and February 29, 2016, cash used in investing activities totaled $766.1 million and $66.6 million, respectively. During the three months ended February 28, 2017, our cash used in investing activities was primarily impacted by $596.2 million for the acquisition of WCI, net of cash acquired. In addition, we had cash contributions of (1) $120.3 million to Lennar Homebuilding unconsolidated entities primarily for working capital and paydown of joint ventures debt, (2) $26.5 million to Lennar Multifamily unconsolidated entities primarily for working capital, and (3) $4.9 million to Rialto unconsolidated entities comprised of $2.6 million contributed to Rialto Real Estate Fund III and $2.3 million contributed to Rialto Credit Partnership Fund. Cash used in investing activities was impacted by purchases of CMBS and originations of loans receivable by our Rialto segment. This was partially offset by the receipt of $24.2 million of proceeds from the sales of REO and by distributions of capital of (1) $20.6 million from Lennar Multifamily unconsolidated entities; (2) $10.0 million from Rialto unconsolidated entities comprised of $6.7 million distributed by Rialto Real Estate Fund II, LP (" Fund II"), $1.7 million distributed by the CMBS Funds and $1.6 million distributed by the Mezzanine Fund; and (3) $9.4 million from Lennar Homebuilding unconsolidated entities.

During the three months ended February 29, 2016, our cash used in investing activities was primarily impacted by cash contributions of (1) $45.8 million to Lennar Multifamily unconsolidated entities primarily for working capital, (2) $37.1 million to Lennar Homebuilding unconsolidated entities primarily for working capital, and (3) $21.0 million contributed to Rialto's CMBS Funds. In addition, cash used in investing activities was impacted by purchases of commercial mortgage backed bonds and originations of loans receivable. This was partially offset by the receipt of $20.3 million of proceeds from the sales of REO and by distributions of capital of (1) $57.5 million from Lennar Multifamily unconsolidated entities, of which $43.6 million was distributed by the Venture; (2) $6.9 million from Rialto unconsolidated entities comprised of $4.8 million distributed by Mezzanine Fund, $1.7 million distributed by Fund II and $0.4 million distributed by the CMBS Funds; and (3) $4.9 million from Lennar Homebuilding unconsolidated entities.

Financing Cash Flow Activities

During the three months ended February 28, 2017 and February 29, 2016, our cash provided by (used in) financing activities totaled $286.3 million and ($155.5) million, respectively. During the three months ended February 28, 2017, our cash provided by financing activities was primarily attributed to the receipt of proceeds related to the (1) issuance of $600 million aggregate principal amount of 4.125% senior notes due 2022 (the "4.125% Senior Notes"), (2) $250.0 million of net borrowings under our unsecured revolving credit facility (the “Credit Facility”), and (3) $35.5 million proceeds from issuance of Rialto's notes payable. This was partially offset by (1) $543.4 million of net repayments under our Lennar Financial Services and Rialto warehouse repurchase facilities, (2) $25.9 million of payments related to noncontrolling interests, and (3) $16.2 million of principal payments on other borrowings.

During the three months ended February 29, 2016, our cash used in financing activities was primarily impacted by $395.2 million of net repayments under our Lennar Financial Services and Rialto warehouse repurchase facilities, $162.9 million of exchanges and conversions of our 2.75% convertible senior notes due 2020, $59.1 million of principal payments on other borrowings and $42.0 million of payments related to noncontrolling interests. This cash used in financing activities was partially offset by the receipt of $500 million of net borrowings under our Credit Facility.

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. Lennar Homebuilding debt to total capital and net Lennar Homebuilding debt to total capital are calculated as follows:



(Dollars in thousands)	February 28, 2017			November 30, 2016		February 29, 2016
Lennar Homebuilding debt	$	5,778,306		4,575,977		5,333,981
Stockholders’ equity	7,106,053			7,026,042		5,820,114
Total capital	$	12,884,359		11,602,019		11,154,095
Lennar Homebuilding debt to total capital	44.8		%	39.4	%	47.8	%
Lennar Homebuilding debt	$	5,778,306		4,575,977		5,333,981

Net Lennar Homebuilding debt	$	5,137,490		3,525,839		4,823,103
Net Lennar Homebuilding debt to total capital (1)	42.0		%	33.4	%	45.3	%

(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 stockholders' equity). We believe the ratio of net Lennar Homebuilding debt to total capital is a relevant and a 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 our GAAP results.

At February 28, 2017, Lennar Homebuilding debt to total capital was lower compared to February 29, 2016, primarily as a result of an increase in stockholders' equity primarily related to our net earnings, partially offset by a net increase in Lennar Homebuilding debt due to the issuance of senior notes and debt assumed related to the WCI acquisition on February 10, 2017.

We are continually exploring various types of transactions to manage our leverage and liquidity positions, take advantage of market opportunities and increase our revenues and earnings. 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 purchase or sale of 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 Lennar Multifamily, 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 or decrease our interest expense, dilute our existing stockholders and/or affect the net book value of our assets. At February 28, 2017, we had no agreements or understandings regarding any significant transactions.

Our Lennar Homebuilding average debt outstanding was $5.2 billion with an average rate for interest incurred of 5.2% for the three months ended February 28, 2017, compared to $5.3 billion with an average rate for interest incurred of 5.0% for the three months ended February 29, 2016. Interest incurred related to Lennar Homebuilding debt for the three months ended February 28, 2017 was $69.7 million, compared to $71.6 million for the three months ended February 29, 2016.

As of February 28, 2017, we had a $1.8 billion Credit Facility, which includes a $298 million accordion feature, subject to additional commitments, with certain financial institutions. The maturity for $1.3 billion of our Credit Facility is in June 2020, with the remaining $160 million maturing in June 2018. The proceeds available under our Credit Facility, which are subject to specified conditions for borrowing, may be used for working capital and general corporate purposes. The credit agreement also provides that up to $500 million in commitments may be used for letters of credit. As of February 28, 2017, we had $250 million of outstanding borrowings under our Credit Facility. As of November 30, 2016, we had no outstanding borrowings under our Credit Facility. We may from time to time, borrow and repay amounts under our Credit Facility. Consequently, the amount outstanding under our Credit Facility at the end of a period may not be reflective of the total amounts outstanding during the period. We believe that we were in compliance with our debt covenants at February 28, 2017. In addition, we had $320 million of letter of credit facilities with different financial institutions.

Under the amended Credit Facility agreement executed in June 2016 (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 minus the lesser of 50% of the amount paid after June 24, 2016 to repurchase common stock and $100 million. We are required to maintain a leverage ratio that shall not exceed 65% and may be reduced by 2.5% per quarter if our interest coverage ratio is less than 2.25:1.00 for two consecutive fiscal calendar quarters. The leverage ratio will have a floor of 60%. If our interest coverage ratio subsequently exceeds 2.25:1.00 for two consecutive fiscal calendar quarters, the leverage ratio we will be required to maintain will be increased by 2.5% per quarter to a maximum of 65%. 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 summarizes our required debt covenants and our actual levels or ratios with respect to those covenants as calculated per the Credit Agreement as of February 28, 2017:



(Dollars in thousands)	Covenant Level			Level Achieved as of February 28, 2017
Minimum net worth test	$	3,004,482		5,542,403
Maximum leverage ratio	65.0		%	46.1	%
Liquidity test (1)	1.00			2.45


(1)	We are only 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 of equal to or greater than 1.50:1.00 for the last twelve months then ended. Although we are in compliance with our debt covenants for both calculations, we have only disclosed our liquidity test.

The terms minimum net worth test, maximum leverage ratio, liquidity test and interest coverage ratio used in the Credit Agreement are specifically calculated per the Credit Agreement and differ in specified ways from comparable GAAP or common usage terms.

Our performance letters of credit outstanding were $290.6 million and $270.8 million at February 28, 2017 and November 30, 2016, respectively. Our financial letters of credit outstanding were $141.1 million and $210.3 million at February 28, 2017 and November 30, 2016, respectively. Performance letters of credit are generally posted with regulatory bodies to guarantee the 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, 2017, we had outstanding surety bonds of $1.4 billion including performance surety bonds related to site improvements at various projects (including certain projects of our joint ventures) and financial surety bonds including $223.4 million related to pending litigation.

In January 2017, we issued $600 million aggregate principal amount of 4.125% Senior Notes at a price of 100%. Proceeds from the offering, after payment of expenses, were $595.2 million. We used the net proceeds from the sales of the 4.125% Senior Notes to fund a portion of the cash consideration for our acquisition of WCI and to pay for costs and expenses related to this acquisition as well as for general corporate purposes. Interest on the 4.125% Senior Notes is due semi-annually beginning July 15, 2017. The 4.125% Senior Notes are unsecured and unsubordinated, but are guaranteed by substantially all of the our 100% owned homebuilding subsidiaries.

On February 10, 2017, we acquired WCI and assumed the 6.875% senior notes due 2021 (the"6.875% Senior Notes"). The 6.875% Senior Notes were recorded at fair value with a principal outstanding amount of $249.8 million and are callable beginning August 2017 at declining premiums until maturity.

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 those subsidiaries as any other holders of a material amount of our unsecured debt. Therefore, the guarantees of the Guaranteed Notes will remain in effect with regard to a guarantor subsidiary only while it guarantees 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. 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.

Our Lennar Financial Services segment warehouse facilities at February 28, 2017 were as follows:



(In thousands)	Maximum Aggregate Commitment
364-day warehouse repurchase facility that matures June 2017	$	400,000
364-day warehouse repurchase facility that matures September 2017	300,000
364-day warehouse repurchase facility that matures December 2017 (1)	400,000
Total	$	1,100,000


(1)	Maximum aggregate commitment includes an uncommitted amount of $250 million.

Our Lennar Financial Services segment uses these facilities to finance its lending activities until the mortgage loans are sold to investors and the proceeds are collected. The facilities are non-recourse to us and are expected to be renewed or replaced with other facilities when they mature. Borrowings under the facilities and their prior year predecessors were $560.0 million and $1.1 billion at February 28, 2017 and November 30, 2016, respectively, and were collateralized by mortgage loans and receivables on loans sold to investors but not yet paid for with outstanding principal balances of $582.0 million and $1.1 billion, at February 28, 2017 and November 30, 2016, 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 or replaced, 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 for.

At February 28, 2017, Rialto warehouse facilities were as follows:



(In thousands)	Maximum Aggregate Commitment
364-day warehouse repurchase facility that matures April 2017 (1)	$	500,000
Warehouse repurchase facility that matures December 2017	200,000
364-day warehouse repurchase facility that matures January 2018	250,000
Total - Loan origination and securitization business (RMF)	$	950,000
Warehouse repurchase facility that matures August 2018 (two - one year extensions) (2)	100,000
Total	$	1,050,000


(1)	Rialto has the option of a six month extension of the warehouse repurchase facility.


(2)	Rialto uses this warehouse repurchase facility to finance the origination of floating rate accrual loans, which are reported as accrual loans within loans receivable, net. Borrowings under this facility were $43.3 million as of both February 28, 2017 and November 30, 2016.

Borrowings under the facilities that finance RMF's loan originations and securitization activities were $153.8 million and $180.2 million as of February 28, 2017 and November 30, 2016, respectively, and were secured by a 75% interest in the originated commercial loans financed. The facilities require immediate repayment of the 75% interest in the secured commercial loans when the loans are sold in a securitization and the proceeds are collected. These warehouse repurchase facilities are non-recourse to us and are expected to be renewed or replaced with other facilities when they mature.

As of February 28, 2017 and November 30, 2016, the carrying amount, net of debt issuance costs, of Rialto's 7.00% senior notes due 2018 was $348.9 million and $348.7 million, respectively.

Changes in Capital Structure

On February 10, 2017, 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 27, 2017, as declared by our Board of Directors on January 12, 2017.

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.

Lennar Homebuilding: Investments in Unconsolidated Entities

At February 28, 2017, we had equity investments in 39 homebuilding and land unconsolidated entities (of which 3 had recourse debt, 9 had non-recourse debt and 27 had no debt), compared to 38 homebuilding and land unconsolidated entities at November 30, 2016. Historically, we have 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 have 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, has 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:

(1)	Our share of profit and cash distributions from the sales of land could be higher compared to our ownership interest in unconsolidated entities if certain specified internal rate of return or cash flow milestones are achieved.

For the three months ended February 28, 2017, Lennar Homebuilding equity in loss from unconsolidated entities was primarily attributable to our share of net operating losses from our unconsolidated entities. The operating losses from our unconsolidated entities were primarily driven by general and administrative expenses, as there were not sufficient land sale transactions to offset those expenses during the three months ended February 28, 2017.

For the three months ended February 29, 2016, Lennar Homebuilding equity in earnings included $6.0 million of equity in earnings from one of our unconsolidated entities primarily due to sales of approximately 220 homesites to third parties.

(1)	Debt presented above is net of debt issuance costs of $6.1 million and $4.2 million, as of February 28, 2017 and November 30, 2016, respectively.

On May 2, 2016 (the "Closing Date"), we contributed, or obtained the right to contribute, our investment in three strategic joint ventures previously managed by FivePoint Communities in exchange for an investment in a FivePoint entity. The fair values of the assets contributed to this FivePoint entity, included within the unconsolidated entities summarized condensed balance sheet presented above, are preliminary and may be adjusted when additional information is obtained during the transaction’s measurement period (a period of up to one year from the Closing Date) that may change the fair value allocation as of the acquisition date. A portion of the assets of one of the three strategic joint ventures transferred to a new unconsolidated entity was retained by us and our venture partner. The transactions did not have a material impact to our financial position or cash flows for the year ended November 30, 2016. For the year ended November 30, 2016, we recorded $42.6 million of our share of combination costs and operational net losses in equity in loss from unconsolidated entities on our consolidated statement of operations.

As of February 28, 2017 and November 30, 2016, our recorded investments in Lennar Homebuilding unconsolidated entities were $910.1 million and $811.7 million, respectively, while the underlying equity in Lennar Homebuilding unconsolidated entities partners’ net assets as of February 28, 2017 and November 30, 2016 was $1.3 billion and $1.2 billion, respectively. The basis difference is primarily as a result of us contributing our investment in three strategic joint ventures with a higher fair value than book value for an investment in the FivePoint entity and deferring equity in earnings on land sales to us.

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, we and 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, 2017			November 30, 2016
Debt	$	770,587		888,664
Equity	3,915,268			3,765,336
Total capital	$	4,685,855		4,654,000
Debt to total capital of our unconsolidated entities	16.4		%	19.1	%

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



(In thousands)	February 28, 2017		November 30, 2016
Land development	$	879,515	787,138
Homebuilding	30,569		24,585
Total investments	$	910,084	811,723

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 of 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 an 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 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, 2017			November 30, 2016
Non-recourse bank debt and other debt (partner’s share of several recourse)	$	72,162		48,945
Non-recourse land seller debt and other debt (1)	3,995			323,995
Non-recourse debt with completion guarantees	298,319			147,100
Non-recourse debt without completion guarantees	325,115			320,372
Non-recourse debt to Lennar	699,591			840,412
Lennar's maximum recourse exposure (2)	77,119			52,438
Debt issuance costs	(6,123		)	(4,186	)
Total debt	$	770,587		888,664
Lennar’s maximum recourse exposure as a % of total JV debt	10		%	6	%


(1)	Non-recourse land seller debt and other debt as of November 30, 2016 included a $320 million non-recourse note related to a transaction between one of our unconsolidated entities and another unconsolidated joint venture, which was settled in December 2016.


(2)	As of February 28, 2017, our maximum recourse exposure was primarily related to repayment guarantees provided by us on three unconsolidated entities' debt.

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.

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. 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 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. If we are required to make a payment under any 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.

As of both February 28, 2017 and November 30, 2016, the fair values of the repayment and completion guarantees were not material. We believe that as of February 28, 2017, 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, the collateral would to 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 with regard to obligations of our joint ventures. (see Note 12 of the notes to our condensed consolidated financial statements).

The following table summarizes the principal maturities of our Lennar Homebuilding unconsolidated entities ("JVs") debt as per current debt arrangements as of February 28, 2017 and it 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.

As manager of real estate funds, Rialto is entitled to receive additional revenue through carried interests if the funds meet certain performance thresholds. Rialto also periodically receives advance distributions related to Rialto's carried interests in order to cover income tax obligations resulting from allocations of taxable income to its carried interests in its real estate funds. These distributions are not subject to clawbacks but will reduce future carried interest payments to which Rialto becomes entitled from the applicable funds and have been recorded as revenues. The amounts presented in the table below include advance and carried interest distributions received during the three months ended February 28, 2017 and February 29, 2016:

Lennar Multifamily: Investments in Unconsolidated Entities

At February 28, 2017, Lennar Multifamily had equity investments in 29 unconsolidated entities that are engaged in multifamily residential developments (of which 17 had non-recourse debt and 12 had no debt), compared to 28 unconsolidated entities at November 30, 2016. 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 Venture is a long-term multifamily development investment vehicle involved in the development, construction and property management of class-A multifamily assets with $2.2 billion in equity commitments, including a $504 million co-investment commitment by us comprised of cash, undeveloped land and preacquisition costs. The Venture is currently seeded with 36 undeveloped multifamily assets that were previously purchased or under contract by the Lennar Multifamily segment totaling approximately 10,700 apartments with projected project costs of $3.8 billion as of February 28, 2017. During the three months ended February 28, 2017, $150.7 million in equity commitments were called, of which we contributed $33.9 million representing our pro-rata portion of the called equity. During the three months ended February 28, 2017, we received no distributions as a return of capital from the Venture. As of February 28, 2017, $1.1 billion of the $2.2 billion in equity commitments had been called, of which we had contributed $249.7 million representing our pro-rata portion of the called

equity, resulting in a remaining equity commitment for us of $254.3 million. As of February 28, 2017 and November 30, 2016, the carrying value of our investment in the Venture was $230.0 million and $198.2 million, respectively.

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. We believe all of the joint ventures were in compliance with their debt covenants at February 28, 2017.

During the three months ended February 28, 2017, Lennar Multifamily equity in earnings from unconsolidated entities included the segment's $26.0 million share of gains as a result of the sale of two operating properties by its unconsolidated entities. For the three months ended February 29, 2016, Lennar Multifamily equity in earnings from unconsolidated entities included the segment's $20.4 million share of a gain as a result of a sale of one operating property by one of its unconsolidated entities.


(2)	Our share of profit and cash distributions from sales of operating properties could be higher compared to our ownership interest in unconsolidated entities if certain specified internal rate of return milestones are achieved.

Option Contracts

We often obtain access to land through option contracts, which generally enable 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, 2017 and February 29, 2016:

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, 2017, consolidated inventory not owned increased by $35.1 million with a corresponding increase to liabilities related to consolidated inventory not owned in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of February 28, 2017. The increase was as a result of litigation where we may be required to purchase a property in Maryland (see Note 17 of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements), partially offset by homesite takedowns. 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, 2017. 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-acquisition costs totaling $73.6 million and $85.0 million at February 28, 2017 and November 30, 2016, respectively. Additionally, we had posted $40.6 million and $45.1 million of letters of credit in lieu of cash deposits under certain land and option contracts as of February 28, 2017 and November 30, 2016, respectively.

Contractual Obligations and Commercial Commitments

Our contractual obligations and commercial commitments have not changed materially from those reported in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended November 30, 2016, except for:


•	In January 2017, we issued $600 million aggregate principal amount of 4.125% Senior Notes.


•	As of February 28, 2017, we had $250 million of outstanding borrowings under the Credit Facility.

(1)	The 6.875% Senior Notes have been included in this table based on its maturity date, but the 6.875% Senior Notes are callable by us at an earlier date than the maturity date disclosed in this table. The amounts presented in the table above exclude debt issuance costs and any discounts/premiums.

(3)	Interest commitments on variable interest-bearing debt are determined based on the interest rates as of February 28, 2017.

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 or unconsolidated entities until we have determined whether to exercise our options. This reduces our financial risk associated with land holdings. At February 28, 2017, we had access to 35,683 homesites through option contracts with third parties and unconsolidated entities in which we have investments. At February 28, 2017, we had $73.6 million of non-refundable option deposits and pre-acquisition costs related to certain of these homesites and had posted $40.6 million of letters of credit in lieu of cash deposits under certain land and option contracts.

At February 28, 2017, we had letters of credit outstanding in the amount of $431.7 million (which included $40.6 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, 2017, we had outstanding surety bonds of $1.4 billion including performance surety bonds related to site improvements at various projects (including certain projects of our joint ventures) and financial surety bonds including $223.4 million related to pending litigation. 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, 2017, there were approximately $530.3 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 $2.3 billion at February 28, 2017. Loans in process for which interest rates were committed to the borrowers totaled approximately $646.6 million as of February 28, 2017. 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, future 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, future 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, 2017, we had open commitments amounting to $1.1 billion to sell MBS with varying settlement dates through May 2017 and open future contracts in the amount of $568.0 million with settlement dates through December 2023.

(3) New Accounting Pronouncements

See Note 18 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, 2017 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, 2016.

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.

In January 2017, we issued $600 million aggregate principal amount of 4.125% senior notes due 2022.

As of February 28, 2017, we had $250 million of outstanding borrowings under our unsecured revolving credit facility and borrowings under Rialto's and Lennar Financial Services' warehouse repurchase facilities of $197.1 million and $560.0 million, respectively.

On February 10, 2017, we acquired WCI Communities, Inc. and assumed the 6.875% senior notes due 2021 with a principal outstanding amount of $249.8 million.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer participated in an evaluation by our management of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on their participation in that evaluation, our CEO and CFO concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of February 28, 2017 to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, and to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or furnished under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our CEO and CFO, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.

Our CEO and CFO also participated in an evaluation by our management of any changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended February 28, 2017. That evaluation did not identify any changes that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Part II. Other Information

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

We are party to various claims, legal actions and complaints arising in the ordinary course of business. In the opinion of management, the disposition of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on our condensed consolidated financial statements. We are also a party to various lawsuits involving purchases and sales of real property. These lawsuits include claims regarding representations and warranties made in connection with the transfer of properties and disputes regarding the obligation to purchase or sell properties.

We have been engaged in litigation since 2008 in the United States District Court for the District of Maryland (U.S. Home Corporation v. Settlers Crossing, LLC, et al., Civil Action No. DKC 08-1863) regarding whether we are required by a contract we entered into in 2005 to purchase a property in Maryland. After entering into the contract, we later renegotiated the purchase price during the downturn, reducing it from $200 million to $134 million, $20 million of which has been paid and subsequently written off, leaving a balance of $114 million. In January 2015, the District Court rendered a decision ordering us to purchase the property for the $114 million balance of the contract price, to pay interest at the rate of 12% per annum from May 27, 2008, and to reimburse the seller for real estate taxes and attorneys’ fees. We believed the decision was contrary to applicable law and appealed the decision.

On March 23, 2017, the United States Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit held oral argument in the appeal. The timing of a final decision is uncertain. While we continue to believe the trial court decision is contrary to applicable law, after assessment of the oral argument, we have concluded that it is appropriate to establish an accrual of $140 million for the litigation. The accrual represents the high end of the range of expected liability associated with the litigation. This accrual will be charged against first quarter earnings. In addition to the accrual, we would be required to purchase the property, which is the subject of the litigation, for $114 million, which approximates our estimate of the fair value of the property. If the District Court decision is reversed on appeal, we will not have to purchase the property or pay interest, real estate taxes or attorneys’ fees, and the accrual will be reversed. If the appellate court directs further proceedings at the trial court level, the accrual may be reduced depending on the basis for the decision and the direction given to the trial court.

In June 2016, we received Notices of Violation from the United States Environmental Protection Agency related to stormwater compliance at certain of our Tampa and Southwest Florida communities. It has been determined that violations occurred and this matter will result in monetary sanctions to us, which we do not currently expect will be material.

Item 1A. Risk Factors
