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 VIEsvariable interest entities ("VIEs") (see Note 16)16 of the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements) 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, 2017.2018. 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 and ninesix months ended AugustMay 31, 20182019 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/RevisionsRecently Adopted 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 requires 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. ASU 2014-09 became effective for the Company’s fiscal year beginning December 1, 2018 and subsequent interim periods. 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 2016-12, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Narrow-Scope Improvements and Practical Expedients , and ASU 2017-05, Other Income—Gains and Losses from the Derecognition of Nonfinancial Assets (Subtopic 610-20): Clarifying the Scope of Asset Derecognition Guidance and Accounting for Partial Sales of Nonfinancial Assets, 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 had the same effective date and transition requirements as ASU 2014-09. The Company has adopted the modified retrospective method. The Company recorded an immaterial net increase to retained earnings as of December 1, 2018, due to the cumulative impact of adopting ASU 2014-09, with the impact primarily related to the recognition of deferral of net margin from home deliveries.
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 was effective for the Company’s fiscal year beginning December 1, 2018 and subsequent interim periods. The adoption of ASU 2016-15 did not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
Lennar Corporation and Subsidiaries
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited) - (Continued)


The Company adopted ASU 2016-18, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230), Restricted Cash, effective December 1, 2018. The amendments in the standard require that the statement of cash flows explain the change during the period in the total of cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash. As a result, the Company's beginning-of-period and end-of-period cash balances presented in the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows were retrospectively adjusted to include restricted cash with cash and cash equivalents. In accordance with Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") Final Rule Release No. 33-10532, Disclosure Update and Simplification, the Company removed the presentation of cash dividends per each Class A and Class B common share from the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss). This is now disclosed with the analysis of changes in stockholders' equity within Note 5 of the Notes to the 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 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 was effective for the Company’s fiscal year beginning December 1, 2018 and subsequent interim periods. The adoption of ASU 2016-01 did not have a material impact 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 was effective for the Company’s fiscal year beginning December 1, 2018 and subsequent interim periods. The adoption of ASU 2017-01 did not have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.
Revenue Recognition
Homebuilding revenues and related profits from sales of homes are recognized at the time of the closing of a sale, when title to and possession of the property are transferred to the homebuyer. The Company’s performance obligation, to deliver the agreed-upon home, is generally satisfied in less than one year from the original contract date. Cash proceeds from home closings held in escrow for the Company’s benefit, typically for approximately three days, are included in Homebuilding cash and cash equivalents in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and disclosed in Note 11 of the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. Contract liabilities include customer deposits liabilities related to sold but undelivered homes that are included in other liabilities in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company periodically elects to sell parcels of land to third parties. Cash consideration from land sales is typically due on the closing date, which is generally when performance obligations are satisfied and revenue is recognized as title to and possession of the property are transferred to the buyer.
The Company’s financial services’ operations recognize revenues as follows: Title premiums on policies issued directly by the Company are recognized as revenue on the effective date of the title policies. Escrow fees and loan origination revenues are recognized at the time the related real estate transactions are completed, usually upon the close of escrow. Revenues from title policies issued by independent agents are recognized as revenue when notice of issuance is received from the agent, which is generally when cash payment is received by the Company.
The Company’s Multifamily segment provides management services with respect to the development, construction and property management of rental projects in joint ventures in which the Company has investments. As a result, the Multifamily segment earns and receives fees, which are generally based upon a stated percentage of development and construction costs and a percentage of gross rental collections. These fees are recorded over the period in which the services are performed using an input method, which properly depicts the level of effort required to complete the management services. In addition, the Multifamily segment provides general contractor services for the construction of some of its rental projects and recognizes the revenue over the period in which the services are performed using an input method, which properly depicts the level of effort required to complete the construction services. These customer contracts require the Company to provide management and general contractor services which represents a performance obligation that the Company satisfies over time. Management fees and general contractor services in the Multifamily segment are included in Multifamily revenue.

Reclassifications
Certain prior year amounts in the condensed consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform with the 20182019 presentation. The Company's segments were adjusted to reflect Rialto Mortgage Finance ("RMF") and certain other Rialto assets within the Financial Services segment effective December 1, 2018. The remaining assets retained related to the Company's former Rialto segment were included in the Lennar Other segment. In addition, the Company's strategic technology investments, which were part of Homebuilding, were reclassified to be included in the Lennar Other segment. These reclassifications were between segments and had no impact on the Company's total assets, total equity, revenue or net income in the condensed consolidated financial statements.

(2)Business Acquisitions
Acquisition of CalAtlantic Group, Inc.
On February 12, 2018, the Company completed the acquisition of CalAtlantic Group, Inc. (“CalAtlantic”) through a transaction in which CalAtlantic was merged with and into a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (“Merger Sub”), with Merger Sub continuing as the surviving corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (the “Merger”). CalAtlantic was a homebuilder which built homes across the homebuilding spectrum, from entry level to luxury, in 43 metropolitan statistical areas spanning 19 states. CalAtlantic also provided mortgage, title and escrow services. A primary reason for the acquisition was to increase local market concentration in order to generate synergies and efficiencies.
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 purchase price accounting reflected in the accompanying financial statements is provisional and is based upon estimates and assumptions that are subject to change within the measurement period (up to one year from the acquisition date pursuant to ASC 805). The measurement period remains open pending the completion of valuation procedures related to the acquired assets and assumed liabilities. The $3.3 billion provisional amount allocated to Homebuilding goodwill in Lennar Homebuilding and the provisional amount of $169$175 million allocated to goodwill in Lennar Financial Services goodwill is final and represents the excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed.

Homebuilding revenue and net earnings attributable to Lennar for the three and ninesix months ended AugustMay 31, 2018 Lennar Homebuilding revenue included $2.2$2.1 billion and $4.7$2.5 billion, respectively, of home sales revenues, and earnings (loss) before income taxes included $209.3$56.5 million and $157.3($52.0) million, respectively, of a pre-tax earnings (loss) from CalAtlantic since the date of acquisition, which included acquisition and integration costs of $12.0$23.9 million and $140.1$128.1 million, respectively. These acquisition and integration costs were comprised mainly of severancetransaction expenses and transaction costs and were included within the acquisition and integration costs related to CalAtlantic line item in the accompanying condensed consolidated statement of operations for the three and ninesix months ended AugustMay 31, 2018.
The following presents summarized unaudited supplemental pro forma operating results as if CalAtlantic had been included in the Company's Consolidated Statements of Operations beginning December 1, 2016.

(1)Net earnings for the three and nine months ended August 31, 2018 include a pre-tax impact from acquisition and integration costs related to CalAtlantic of $12.0 million and $140.1 million, respectively. Additionally, net earnings for the three and nine months ended August 31, 2018 include purchase accounting adjustments of $84.2 million and $376.0 million, respectively, on CalAtlantic homes that were in backlog/construction in progress at the acquisition date that were subsequently delivered.
The supplemental pro forma operating results have been determined after adjusting the operating results of CalAtlantic to reflect additional amortization that would have been recorded assuming the fair value adjustment to intangible assets had been applied beginning December 1, 2016. Certain other adjustments, including those related to conforming accounting policies and adjusting acquired inventory to fair value, have not been reflected in the supplemental pro forma operating results due to the impracticability of estimating their impacts.
Acquisition of WCI Communities, Inc. in February 2017
On February 10, 2017, the Company acquired WCI Communities, Inc. ("WCI"), a homebuilder of luxury single and multifamily 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 proceeds from the issuance of 4.125% senior notes due 2022 (see Note 12).
Based on an evaluation of the provisions of ASC 805, Lennar Corporation was determined to be the acquirer for accounting purposes. The following table summarizes the purchase price allocation based on the estimated fair value of net assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the date of acquisition:

(1)Intangible assets include non-compete agreements and a trade name. The amortization period for these intangible assets was six months 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 amount of goodwill allocated to the Company's Homebuilding East segment was $136.6 million and to the Lennar Financial Services segment was $20.0 million. These amounts were based on the relative fair value of each acquired reporting unit in accordance with ASC 350, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other.
For the three and nine months ended August 31, 2017, Lennar Homebuilding revenues included $149.6 million and $351.9 million, respectively, of home sales revenues from WCI and earnings before income taxes included $20.0 million and $33.2 million, respectively, of pre-tax earnings from WCI since the date of acquisition, which included transaction-related expenses of $6.9 million and $25.9 million, respectively, comprised mainly of severance costs, general and administrative expenses, and amortization expense related to non-compete agreements and trade name since the date of acquisition. These transaction expenses were included primarily within Lennar Homebuilding selling, general and administrative expenses in the accompanying condensed consolidated statement of operations for the three and nine months ended August 31, 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 homebuilding operations construct and sell homes primarily for first-time, move-up and active adult homebuyers primarily under the Lennar brand name. In addition, the Company's homebuilding operations purchase, develop and sell land to third parties. In connection with the CalAtlantic acquisition, the Company experienced significant growth in its operations.

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited) - (Continued)


(1)During the ninethree and six months ended AugustMay 31, 2019, other income was primarily attributable to a $64.9 million gain on the settlement of contingent consideration recorded by one Homebuilding unconsolidated entity, of which the Company's pro-rata share was $25.9 million. During the three and six months ended May 31, 2018, other income was primarily due to FivePoint Holdings, LLC ("FivePoint") recording income resulting from the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017’s reduction in its corporate tax rate to reduce its liability pursuant to its tax receivable agreement (“TRA Liability”) with its non-controlling interests. However, the Company has a 70% interest in the FivePoint


TRA Liability. Therefore, the Company did not include in Lennar Homebuilding’s equity in loss TRA Liability. Therefore, the Company did not include in Homebuilding’s equity in earnings (loss) from unconsolidated entities its pro-rata share of earnings related to the Company’s portion of the TRA Liability. As a result, the Company’s unconsolidated entities have net earnings, but the Company has an equity in loss from unconsolidated entities.
For the three and six months ended May 31, 2019, Homebuilding equity in earnings from unconsolidated entities was primarily attributable to the Company's share of net operating income from one of Homebuilding's unconsolidated entities which was primarily attributable to a gain on settlement of contingent consideration.
For the three and ninesix months ended AugustMay 31, 2018, Lennar Homebuilding equity in loss from unconsolidated entities was primarily attributable to the Company's share of valuation adjustments related to assets of Lennar Homebuilding's unconsolidated entities and the Company's share of net operating losses from its unconsolidated entities excluding other income.
For both the three and nine months ended August 31, 2017, one of the Company’s unconsolidated entities had equity in earnings of $18.8 million relating to an equity method investee selling 475 homesites to a third-party land bank. Simultaneous with the purchase by the land bank, the Company entered into an option contract to purchase all 475 homesites from the land bank. Due to the Company’s continuing involvement with respect to the homesites sold from the investee entity, the Company deferred all of its equity in earnings from the unconsolidated entity relating to the sale transaction, which amounted to $7.8 million.
For the three months ended August 31, 2017, Lennar Homebuilding equity in loss from unconsolidated entities was primarily attributable to the Company's share of net operating losses from unconsolidated entities and its deferral of equity in earnings from the land sale transaction discussed above. The net earnings of unconsolidated entities were primarily driven by the unconsolidated entity’s equity in earnings relating to the land sale offset by general and administrative expenses during the three months ended August 31, 2017.
For the nine months ended August 31, 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 and its deferral of equity in earnings from the land sale transaction discussed above. The net loss from unconsolidated entities was primarily driven by general and administrative expenses, partially offset by the unconsolidated entity’s equity in earnings from the land sale discussed above.

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 AugustMay 31, 20182019 and November 30, 2017,2018, the fair values of the repayment guarantees, maintenance guarantees, and completion guarantees were not material. The Company believes that as of AugustMay 31, 2018,2019, 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)12 of the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements).

Excluding the one-time non-cash deferred tax asset write down of $68.6 million recorded in the first quarter of 2018 due to the tax reform bill and the $34.1 million benefit recorded in the third quarter of 2018, primarily related to tax accounting method changes and energy credits, the tax rate for the nine months ended August 31, 2018 would have been 22.6%.

As of AugustMay 31, 20182019 and November 30, 2017,2018, the Company's deferred tax assets, net, included in the condensed consolidated balance sheets were $639.6$413.5 million and $297.7$515.5 million, respectively. The increase in the deferred tax assets was primarily due to deferred tax assets recorded in the first quarter of 2018 from the acquisition of CalAtlantic, partially offset by the write down of the deferred tax assets in the first quarter of 2018 related to the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, as described below, and tax accounting method changes implemented during the third quarter.

On December 22, 2017, the President signed into law the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act. This Act will materially affect the taxes owed by the Company in 2018 and subsequent years. Among other things, it reduced the maximum federal corporate income tax rate to 21%, which should have a positive effect on the Company's net earnings and earnings per share. It also limited or eliminated certain deductions to which the Company has been entitled in past years and reduced the value of the Company's deferred tax assets, which required the Company to recognize in the first quarter of fiscal year 2018 an income tax expense of $68.6 million.



(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") is considered participating securities.

In connection with the sale of the majority of its retail title agency business and title insurance underwriter in the first quarter of 2019, the Company provided seller financing and received a substantial minority equity ownership stake in the buyer. The combination of both the equity and debt components of this transaction caused the transaction not to meet the accounting requirements for sale treatment and, therefore, the Company is required to consolidate the buyer’s results at this time.

by collecting 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 residential 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 residential 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.

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 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. As a result, Rialto had until July 10, 2017 to liquidate and sell the assets in the FDIC Portfolios. On July 10, 2017, Rialto and the FDIC entered into an agreement which extended the original agreement date to January 10, 2018. Since January 11, 2018, (1) the FDIC has had the right, at its discretion, to sell any remaining assets, or (2) Rialto has had the option to purchase the FDIC's interest in the portfolios. At August 31, 2018, the consolidated LLCs had total combined assets of $12.0 million, which primarily included $7.2 million in cash, $3.4 million of real estate owned, net, and $0.6 million of loans held-for-sale. At August 31, 2018, all remaining assets with carrying values were under contract to be sold. At November 30, 2017, the consolidated LLCs had total combined assets of $48.8 million, which primarily included $23.8 million in cash, $20.0 million of real estate owned, net and $1.6 million of loans held-for-sale.

These warehouse repurchase facilities are non-recourse to the Company and are expected to be renewed or replaced with other facilities when they mature. If the facilities are not renewed or replaced, the borrowings under the lines of credit will be paid off by selling the loans held-for-sale to investors. Without the facilities, the RialtoFinancial Services segment would have to use cash from operations and other funding sources to finance its lending activities.

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.

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 it)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. 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 toincrease the Company's investment in the entities and would increase its share of funds the entities distribute after the achievement of certain thresholds.

The following methods and assumptions are used by the Company in estimating fair values:
Rialto—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 quoted interest rates 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 Other—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 quoted interest rates and for the warehouse repurchase financing agreements fair values approximate their carrying value due to their short-term maturities.
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.
Multifamily—For notes payable, the fair values approximate their carrying value due to variable interest pricing terms and the short-term nature of the borrowings.
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 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:
RialtoRMF 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.
Lennar Financial Services residential 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 was included in Lennar Financial Services’ loans held-for-sale as of AugustMay 31, 20182019 and November 30, 2017.2018. 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 was included in the Lennar Financial Services segment's other liabilities as of May 31, 2019 and November 30, 2018.

August 31, 2018. The fair value of forward contracts was included in the Lennar Financial Services segment's other assets as of November 30, 2017.
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 AugustMay 31, 2018,2019, the segment had open commitments amounting to $1.5 billion to sell MBS with varying settlement dates through November 2018.August 2019.
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 AugustMay 31, 2018,2019, the key assumptions used in determining the fair value include a 12.5%16.3% mortgage prepayment rate, a 12.5%12.4% discount rate and an 8.8%a 7.7% delinquency rate. The fair value of mortgage servicing rights is included in the Lennar Financial Services segment's other assets.

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 impairment in the Summary of Significant Accounting Policies in its Form 10-K for the year ended November 30, 2017.2018.
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 Augustboth May 31, 20182019 and 2017,2018, there were 1,307 and 7531,320 active communities, excluding unconsolidated entities, respectively. As of AugustMay 31, 2018,2019, the Company identified 1552 communities with 8432,213 homesites and a corresponding carrying value of $219.3$415.2 million as having potential indicators of impairment. For the ninesix months ended AugustMay 31, 2019, the Company recorded no valuation adjustments related to these communities.
As of May 31, 2018, the Company recorded valuation adjustments of $29.4 million on 688 homesites in fiveidentified 19 communities with a carrying value of $56.5 million.
As of August 31, 2017, the Company identified six communities with 4991,013 homesites and a corresponding carrying value of $31.9$113.2 million as having potential indicators of impairment. For the ninesix months ended AugustMay 31, 2017,2018, the Company recorded valuation adjustments of $7.5$17.6 million on 469570 homesites in sixthree communities with a carrying value of $12.0$31.3 million.

Lennar Corporation and Subsidiaries

The increase in VIEs' assets and non-recourse liabilities during the six months ended May 31, 2019 was primarily due to the consolidation of a previously unconsolidated entity, which resulted from a reconsideration event that required the reassessment of a homebuilding unconsolidated entity. The reconsideration event was the change of the entity’s conclusion with respect to future capital calls required to fund operations and debt repayments. Upon reconsideration, the Company determined that the homebuilding entity continued to meet the accounting definition of a VIE and the Company was deemed to be the primary beneficiary. The Company consolidated the previously unconsolidated entity’s net assets at estimated fair value. The determination of fair value of the homebuilding entity’s net assets requires the discounting of estimated cash flows at a rate the Company believes a market participant would determine to be commensurate with the inherent risks associated with the homebuilding entity and related cash flow streams. The Company used a 15% discount rate in determining the fair value of the entity, which was subject to perceived risks associated with the entity’s cash flow streams. There was no non-controlling interest recorded in consolidation. As a result, the Company recorded a one-time loss of $48.9 million from the consolidation which was included in Homebuilding other income (expense), net on the condensed consolidated statements of operations. At May 31, 2019, the consolidated homebuilding entity had total assets and liabilities of $240.5 million and $356.4 million, respectively.
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 or 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.

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.shared and the Company and its partners are not de-facto agents. 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 AugustMay 31, 2018,2019, the Company and other partners did not have an obligation to make capital contributions to the VIEs, except for $279.5$309.2 million remaining equity commitment to fund the Venture FundLMV I and Venture FundLMV II for future expenditures related to the

construction and development of the projects and $4.6$1.2 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 $60.7 million repayment guarantees of two unconsolidated entities' debt.VIEs. 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 ninesix months ended AugustMay 31, 2018,2019, consolidated inventory not owned decreasedincreased by $64.4$185.7 million with a corresponding decreaseincrease to liabilities related to consolidated inventory not owned in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of AugustMay 31, 2018.2019. The decreaseincrease was primarily duerelated to a higher amountthe consolidation of homesite takedowns than construction started on homesites not owned.option contracts, partially offset by the Company exercising its options to acquire land under previously consolidated contracts. 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 AugustMay 31, 2018.2019. 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 losslosses related to its option contracts with third parties and unconsolidated entities consisted of its non-refundable option deposits and pre-acquisition costs totaling $241.1$326.8 million and $137.0$209.5 million at AugustMay 31, 20182019 and November 30, 2017,2018, respectively. Additionally, the Company had posted $72.2$69.1 million and $51.8$72.4 million of letters of credit in lieu of cash deposits under certain land and option contracts as of AugustMay 31, 20182019 and November 30, 2017,2018, respectively.

(17)Commitments and Contingent Liabilities
The Company is a 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 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.
In the first quarter of 2017, the Company recorded a $140 million loss due to litigation regarding a contract the Company entered into in 2005 to purchase a property in Maryland. As a result of the litigation, the Company purchased the property for $114 million, which approximated the Company's estimate of fair value for the property. In addition, the Company paid approximately $124 million in interest and other closing costs and have accrued for the amount it expects to pay as reimbursement for attorney's fees.
In July 2017, CalAtlantic Group, Inc., a subsidiary of the Company, was notified by the San Francisco Regional Water Quality Control Board of CalAtlantic’s non-compliance with the Clean Water Act at a development in San Ramon, CA. The


Company expects to pay monetary sanctions to resolve this matter, which the Company does not currently expect will be material.
Our mortgage subsidiary has been subpoenaed by the United States Department of Justice ("DOJ") regarding the adequacy of certain underwriting and quality control processes related to Federal Housing Administration loans originated and sold in prior years. The Company has provided information related to these loans and the Company's processes to the DOJ, and communications are ongoing. The DOJ has to date not asserted any claim for damages or penalties.

(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. 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), 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 currently planning to adopt the modified retrospective method. The Company does not believe the adoption of these ASUs and ASU 2014-09 will have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements, but it is continuing to evaluate the impact the adoption of ASU 2014-09 will have on the Company's consolidated financial statements and disclosures.
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 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 the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements. Subsequent to the issuance of ASU 2016-02, the FASB issued ASUs 2018-01, Land Easement Practical Expedient for Transition to Topic 842, 2018-10, Codification Improvements to Topic 842, Leases, 2018-11, Leases (Topic 842): Targeted Improvements, 2018-20, Narrow-Scope Improvements for Lessors, and 2019-01, Leases (Topic 842) Codification Improvements. These ASUs do not change the core principle of the guidance in ASU 2016-02. Instead these amendments are intended to clarify and improve operability of certain topics included within the credit losses standard. These ASUs will have the same effective date and transition requirements as ASU 2016-02.
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, Subsequent to the issuance of ASU 2016-13, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15,2018-19, StatementCodification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments —Credit Losses and ASU 2019-05, Financial Instruments —Credit Losses (Topic 326) Targeted Transition Relief. These ASUs do not change the core principle of Cash Flows (Topic 230), Classification of Certain Cash Receiptsthe guidance in ASU 2016-13. Instead these amendments are intended to clarify 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 classificationimprove operability of certain cash flows. Additionally, in November 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-18, topicsStatement 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

Notes 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. Both ASU 2016-15 and ASU 2016-18 will be effective for the Company’s fiscal year beginning December 1, 2018 and subsequent interim periods. The adoption of ASU 2016-15 will modify the Company's current disclosures and reclassificationsCondensed Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited) - (Continued)


included within the consolidated statement of cash flows but is not expected tocredit losses standard. These ASUs will have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
In January 2017, the FASB issuedsame effective date and transition requirements as 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. The adoption of ASU 2017-01 is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.2016-13.
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 the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements.

Outlook
OverDuring the pastsecond quarter, the homebuying market data has sent mixed signals aboutsolidified and was supported by favorable underlying fundamentals. We saw traffic and sales continue to strengthen as the current statecombination of the housing market. Sales, permits, starts and existing home sales have all shown decelerating growth and there has been a natural mortgage application slow down, which is normal aslower interest rates have trended higher and the refinance business has dissipated. We believe that the increase in new and existing home sale prices over the past few years, together with the general migration of interest rates upward, have caused a pauseslower price appreciation and, in the progression of the housing recovery. Additionally, labor shortages, material price increases and limited approved land availability have both limited production and therefore limited supply and muted sentiment around the housing market strength and margin sustainability. Despite this natural pause, we believe that the market will adjust, and demand driven by fundamental economic strength will resume. We believe that strong employment,some instances, slightly lower prices, has positively impacted affordability. That, together with low unemployment, wage growth, consumer confidence and economic growth will drivedrove the consumer to catch up.
Even as price and interest rate increases have moderated demand inreturn to a more affordable housing market. While the current market weconditions would not be considered robust, they would be considered solid. We believe that the housing market remains strong and is primarily drivengenerally running in a performance channel that is bounded on the downside by the production deficit in production that has persisted for the past decade and has kept housing supply constrained, while it is moderated on the upside by rising land and labor costs as well as affordability limits. Within this channel the market is generally continuing to improve, and we believe, will continue to improve for the foreseeable future.
Our increased use of sales incentives during the market pause in 2018 helped us with our strategy of using pricing to maintain volume and we believe to keep our homebuilding business on track to deliver over 50,000 homes in fiscal 2019. We expect that our average sales price will continue to move lower going forward as many new entry-level communities come online, but that the last decade. The production deficit defines an overalllower average sales price will be offset by the drop in lumber prices, cost synergies and our production-first operating platform.


housing shortageOverall, we expect to see our margins improve steadily throughout the remainder of the year as incentives continue to subside as well as a combination of additional lumber savings and direct cost synergies. Accordingly, we expect to generate strong cash flow for the remainder of 2019 and expect to continue to use excess cash flow to both pay down debt, while opportunistically repurchasing stock.
We continue to invest capital in technology initiatives that cannot correct quickly with labor shortagesare redefining the future of both our company and limited approved land. Supplyour industry. We believe that our technology initiatives represent a significant opportunity and upside for the company as we create efficiencies in internal operations, improve our SG&A leverage and reduce our cost structure. In the second quarter, our SG&A expenses as a percentage of homes sale revenues continued its downward trend with our lowest second quarter level ever at 8.4%. We continue to be laser-focused on progress on our technology adoptions and change management, and this is being reflected in bottom line improvements and through enhancement to our customer experience and our customer interface.
We remain encouraged by both for saleour position and for rent, is short and demand remains strong, though perhaps slower and more normalized in the short term, as the market adjusts to higher prices and interest rates.
Even as market conditions fluctuate, we are enthusiastic aboutfor the evolving positionremainder of the year. With a solid balance sheet, leading market positions and continued execution of our business platform with size and market share in whatcore operating strategies, we believe are the best national markets and as the leader in the homebuilding industry. We not only believe that we are well positioned to execute on our current operational strategies, but we believe we have become even more adaptable and capableproduce strong results throughout the remainder of quickly adjusting to changing landscapes around us. We also believe that we are poised to continue to grow our business, to leverage scale in each of our markets, to drive efficiencies and to implement new technologies. Current market conditions enable us to grow, while management and company focus enable us to drive continued improvement and refinement of our business to enhance bottom line and free cash flow.
Against this strong backdrop we have continued to successfully integrate our strategic combination with CalAtlantic. We will continue to transition CalAtlantic communities to Lennar branding and our Everything’s Included® marketing model. We are already starting to see the power of consolidation with CalAtlantic at the corporate level and the benefits of leverage from additional volume and scale in local markets. We continue to expect synergy savings to be $160 million for 2018 and $380 million for 2019.
Using a combination of strong earnings and improving cash flow, we continued to improve our balance sheet as noted by the decrease in our homebuilding debt to total capital to 40.1%. This gives us great flexibility in the strategy that we deploy going forward. Through this year and next year, we expect to continue to grow our top line consistent with our land driven homesite growth strategy of 7% to 10% improvement per year. As we look ahead to 2020, given the extremely tight and expensive land market, we expect to begin to taper back that homesite growth target, driving our land acquisition program to the 5% to 7% range. We will continue to focus on our land soft pivot strategy and decrease the percentage of homesites we purchase outright versus control under option, generating higher rates of return and greater cash flow.
Additionally, we remain committed to our strategy of reverting to our pure-play core homebuilding platform. As discussed in previous quarters, we have engaged investment bankers and began a process that seeks to maximize the value in our Rialto investment and asset management platform. As part of our process, we received offers to monetize this business and we are currently evaluating those offers. We will act opportunistically and in the best interest of our shareholders.

(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 and ninesix months ended AugustMay 31, 20182019 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 and third fiscal quarterquarters and increased deliveries in the second half of our fiscal year. However, periods of economic downturn in the industry can alter seasonal patterns.
Our net earnings attributable to Lennar were $453.2$421.5 million, or $1.37$1.30 per diluted share ($1.371.31 per basic share), in the thirdsecond quarter of 2018,2019, compared to net earnings attributable to Lennar of $249.2$310.3 million, or $1.04$0.94 per diluted share ($1.040.95 per basic share), in the thirdsecond quarter of 2017. Earnings in the third quarter of 2018 were reduced by $84.1 million ($0.21 per diluted share) of pretax backlog/construction in progress write-up related to purchase accounting and $12.0 million ($0.03 per diluted share) of pretax acquisition and integration costs related to the acquisition of CalAtlantic. This was partially offset by $34.1 million ($0.10 per diluted share) of tax benefits related to tax accounting method changes and energy credits.2018. Our net earnings attributable to Lennar were $899.7$661.4 million, or $2.94$2.03 per diluted share ($2.952.05 per basic share), in the ninesix months ended AugustMay 31, 2018,2019, compared to net earnings attributable to Lennar of $500.9$446.5 million, or $2.09$1.52 per diluted share ($2.091.53 per basic share), in the ninesix months ended AugustMay 31, 2017. Earnings in the nine months ended August 31, 2018 were reduced by $376.0 million ($1.00 per diluted share) of pretax backlog/construction in progress write-up related to purchase accounting, $140.1 million ($0.37 per diluted share) of pretax acquisition and integration costs related to the acquisition of CalAtlantic, and a $68.6 million ($0.23 per diluted share) write down of deferred tax assets due to the reduction in the maximum federal corporate income tax rate. This was partially offset by $34.1 million ($0.11 per diluted share) of tax benefits related to tax accounting method changes and energy credits recorded during the third quarter of 2018. Earnings in the nine months ended August 31, 2017 were reduced by $140 million ($0.39 per diluted share) of pretax Lennar Homebuilding loss due to litigation.

Effects of CalAtlantic Acquisition
In the first quarter offiscal year 2018, we stated that we expected to receiveexceeded our initial $100 million of synergy benefitssavings expectations from the CalAtlantic acquisition of CalAtlantic during 2018by $70 million and $365 million in 2019. During the second and third quarters of 2018, we had taken steps that made us believe that we are on track to meet or exceed our $100 million synergy savings expectations for 2018 by $60 million and our $365$380 million synergies target for 2019 by $15 million.2019. These steps included elimination of costs of having two publicly traded companies, significant reductions in combined headcount and renegotiation of both local and national supply contracts.
Our operating resultsHomebuilding revenue and net earnings attributable to Lennar for the three and ninesix months ended AugustMay 31, 2018 were adversely affected by $12.0included $2.1 billion and $2.5 billion, respectively, of home sales revenues, and earnings (loss) before income taxes included $56.5 million and $140.1($52.0) million, respectively, of a pre-tax earnings (loss) from CalAtlantic since the date of acquisition, which included acquisition and integration costs and $84.2of $23.9 million and $376.0$128.1 million, respectivelyrespectively. These transaction expenses were included within acquisition and integration costs related to CalAtlantic in the accompanying condensed consolidated statement of purchase accounting adjustments on CalAtlantic homes in backlog/construction in progress that were delivered inoperations for the three and ninesix months ended AugustMay 31, 2018. We will continue to incur integration costs during our fourth quarter. Additionally, our earnings in the fourth quarter will continue to be affected by purchase accounting adjustments impacting gross margins recognized on CalAtlantic homes in backlog/construction in progress at the date of acquisition.

The average sales price of homes delivered was $415,000$407,000 in the thirdsecond quarter of 2018,2019, compared to $375,000$413,000 in the thirdsecond quarter of 2017.2018. The increasedecrease in average sales price was primarily resultingresulted from product mix as a larger percentage of deliveries came from the CalAtlantic acquisition.East and Texas segments as well as the Texas segment continuing to shift to lower-priced communities. Sales incentives offered to homebuyers were $22,900$26,600 per home delivered in the thirdsecond quarter of 2018,2019, or 5.2%6.1% as a percentage of home sales revenue, compared to $21,800 per home delivered in the third quarter of 2017, or 5.5% as a percentage of home sales revenue, and $23,000 per home delivered in the second quarter of 2018, or 5.3% as a percentage of home sales revenue, and $25,300 per home delivered in the first quarter of 2019, or 5.8% as a percentage of home sales revenue.

Gross profitsOther homebuilding revenue, gross margin on land sales, were $3.3homebuilding equity in earnings (loss) from unconsolidated entities and homebuilding other income (expense), net, totaled a loss of $21.1 million in the thirdsecond quarter of 2018,2019, compared to $5.2earnings of $17.5 million in the thirdsecond quarter of 2017. Lennar2018. Homebuilding equity in lossearnings (loss) from unconsolidated entities was $15.4$19.6 million in the thirdsecond quarter of 2018,2019, compared to $9.7($12.7) million in the thirdsecond quarter of 2017.2018. In the thirdsecond quarter of 2019, Homebuilding equity in earnings from unconsolidated entities was primarily attributable to our share of net operating income from one of our homebuilding unconsolidated entities. In the second quarter of 2018, Lennar Homebuilding equity in loss from unconsolidated entities was primarily attributable to our share of valuation adjustments related to assets of a Lennar Homebuildingin one homebuilding unconsolidated entity partially offset by our share of net operating earnings from our other unconsolidated entities. In the third quarter of 2017, Lennar Homebuilding equity in loss from unconsolidated entities was primarily attributable toand our share of net operating losses from our homebuilding unconsolidated entities, which was primarily driven by general and administrative expenses, as there were no significant land sale transactions for which we recognized our share of earnings. Lennar entities.
Homebuilding other income (expense), net, was $12.9($46.2) million in the thirdsecond quarter of 2018,2019, compared to $2.8$9.9 million in the thirdsecond quarter of 2017.2018. Homebuilding other expense, net in the second quarter of 2019 was primarily due to a one-time loss of $48.9 million from the consolidation of a previously unconsolidated entity. In the second quarter of 2019, a reconsideration event occurred which required the reassessment of a homebuilding unconsolidated entity. The reconsideration event was the change of the entity’s conclusion with respect to future capital calls required to fund operations and debt repayments. Upon reconsideration, we determined that the homebuilding entity continued to meet the accounting definition of a variable interest entity ("VIE") and we were deemed to be the primary beneficiary. We consolidated the previously unconsolidated entity’s net assets at estimated fair value. The determination of fair value of the homebuilding entity’s net assets requires the discounting of estimated cash flows at a rate we believe a market participant would determine to be commensurate with the inherent risks associated with the homebuilding entity and related cash flow streams. We used a 15% discount rate in determining the fair value of the entity, which was subject to perceived risks associated with the entity’s cash flow streams. There was no non-controlling interest recorded in consolidation. At May 31, 2019, the consolidated homebuilding entity had total assets and liabilities of $240.5 million and $356.4 million, respectively.
Lennar Homebuilding interest expense was $86.9$99.7 million in the thirdsecond quarter of 20182019 ($83.096.2 million was included in costs of homes sold, $0.8$0.7 million in costs of land sold and $3.1$2.9 million in homebuilding other income,expense, net), compared to $71.8$75.8 million in the thirdsecond quarter of 20172018 ($68.671.9 million was included in costs of homes sold, $0.9 million in costs of land sold and $2.3$3.0 million in homebuilding 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 $56.6 million in the third quarter of 2018, compared to $49.1 million in the third quarter of 2017. Operating earnings were Prior year's interest expense was favorably impacted by an increase in the segment's title and mortgage operations duepurchase accounting related to the acquisition of CalAtlantic's financial services operations, partially offset by a decrease in refinance transactions and lower mortgage profit per loan originated.CalAtlantic acquisition.
Operating earnings for the RialtoFinancial Services segment were $10.7$62.5 million in the thirdsecond quarter of 20182019 (which included $9.4$56.2 million of operating earnings and an add back of $1.2$6.3 million of net loss attributable to noncontrolling interests). Operating earnings in the thirdsecond quarter of 20172018 were $3.2$55.8 million. Operating earnings increased primarily due to improvement in the mortgage business as reductions in general and administrative expenses more than offset the decrease in retail origination volume, as a result of the sale of substantially all of the segment's retail mortgage business in the first quarter of 2019. In addition, there was an increase in operating earnings in the segment's Rialto Mortgage Finance ("RMF") business as a result of higher securitization dollar volume in the second quarter of 2019, compared to the second quarter of 2018. This was offset by a decrease in the operating earnings of the segment's title business due to a decrease in retail closed orders as a result of the sale of a majority of the retail agency business and title insurance underwriter in the first quarter of 2019. This decrease


in retail volume was partially offset by an increase in captive business volume and a decrease in general and administrative expenses.
Operating loss for the Multifamily segment was $3.9 million in the second quarter of 2019 (which included a $3.2$4.3 million of operating loss and an add back of $6.4$0.4 million of net loss attributable to noncontrolling interests). The increase in operating earnings was, primarily due to a decrease in real estate owned impairments due to the liquidation of the FDIC and bank portfolios earlier in the year as well as decreases in general and administrative expenses and interest expense. The increaseequity in loss as there were no sales of operating earnings wasproperties, partially offset by decreases in incentivemanagement fee income and interest income, as well as a decrease in Rialto Mortgage Finance ("RMF") securitization earnings due to a lower average net margin.
Operating loss for the Lennar Multifamily segment was $3.9 million in the third quarter of 2018, primarily driven by selling, general and administrative expenses of the segment and equity in loss related to Lennar Multifamily Venture Fund I (the "Venture Fund") and other Multifamily joint ventures as a result of incurring expenses that exceeded revenues while rental operations were reaching stabilization. This was partially offset by $1.7 million of our share of gains from the sale of one operating property by a Lennar Multifamily unconsolidated entity, as well as $5.1$3.7 million of promote revenue related to two properties in theLennar Multifamily Venture Fund.I (“LMV I”). In the thirdsecond quarter of 2017,2018, the Lennar Multifamily segment had operating earnings of $9.1$14.8 million primarily due to the segment's $15.4$17.4 million share of gains as a result of the sale of two operating properties by onetwo of Lennar Multifamily's unconsolidated entities and $5.2 million of promote revenue related to two properties in LMV I, partially offset by general and administrative expenses.
Operating earnings for the Lennar Other segment were $2.2 million in the second quarter of 2019 (which included $1.8 million of operating earnings and an add back of $0.4 million of net loss attributable to noncontrolling interests), compared to $4.0 million in the second quarter of 2018 (which included $3.9 million of operating earnings and an add back of $0.1 million of net loss attributable to noncontrolling interests).
Corporate general and administrative expenses were $96.3$76.1 million, or 1.7%1.4% as a percentage of total revenues, in the thirdsecond quarter of 2018,2019, compared to $72.9$84.9 million, or 2.2%1.6% as a percentage of total revenues, in the thirdsecond quarter of 2017.2018. The decrease in corporate general and administrative expenses as a percentage of total revenues was due to improved operating leverage as a result of an increase in home deliveries.
In the second quarter of 2019 and 2018, we had tax provisions of $140.5 million and $76.0 million, respectively. Our overall effective income tax rates were 25.0% and 19.7% in the second quarter of 2019 and 2018, respectively. The effective tax rate for the three months ended May 31, 2019 included state income tax expense and non-deductible executive compensation, partially offset by solar tax credits. For the three months ended May 31, 2018, the effective tax rate included tax benefits for the domestic production activities deduction and energy tax credits, offset primarily by state income tax expenses.
Six Months Ended May 31, 2019 versus Six Months Ended May 31, 2018
On February 12, 2018, Lennar Corporation completed its acquisition of CalAtlantic. Prior year information includes CalAtlantic only after the acquisition date.
Revenues from home sales increased 15% in the six months ended May 31, 2019 to $8.8 billion from $7.6 billion in the six months ended May 31, 2018. Revenues were higher primarily due to a 14% increase in the number of home deliveries, excluding unconsolidated entities. New home deliveries, excluding unconsolidated entities, increased to 21,508 homes in the six months ended May 31, 2019 from 18,812 homes in the six months ended May 31, 2018, primarily as a result of the increase in volume resulting from the CalAtlantic acquisition. The average sales price of homes delivered was $408,000 in the six months ended May 31, 2019, compared to $406,000 in the six months ended May 31, 2018. The increase in average sales price primarily resulted from the CalAtlantic acquisition, partially offset by the Texas segment continuing to shift to lower-priced communities. Sales incentives offered to homebuyers were $26,100 per home delivered in the six months ended May 31, 2019, or 6.0% as a percentage of home sales revenue, compared to $22,800 per home delivered in the six months ended May 31, 2018, or 5.3% as a percentage of home sales revenue.
Gross margins on home sales were $1.8 billion, or 20.1%, in the six months ended May 31, 2019, compared to $1.4 billion, or 17.8% (21.6% excluding purchase accounting), in the six months ended May 31, 2018. The gross margin percentage on home sales increased primarily because the six months ended May 31, 2018 included $291.9 million or 380 basis points of backlog/construction in progress write-up related to purchase accounting adjustments on CalAtlantic homes that were delivered in that period. This was partially offset by higher construction costs and increased sales incentives.
Selling, general and administrative expenses were $779.0 million in the six months ended May 31, 2019, compared to $689.6 million in the six months ended May 31, 2018. As a percentage of revenues from home sales, selling, general and administrative expenses improved slightly to 8.9% in the six months ended May 31, 2019, from 9.0% in the six months ended May 31, 2018, due to improved operating leverage as a result of an increase in home deliveries.
Other homebuilding revenue, gross margin on land sales, homebuilding equity in earnings (loss) from unconsolidated entities and homebuilding other income (expense), net, totaled a loss of $34.3 million in the six months ended May 31, 2019, compared to earnings of $172.0 million in the six months ended May 31, 2018. Homebuilding equity in earnings (loss) from unconsolidated entities was $5.9 million in the six months ended May 31, 2019, compared to ($26.8) million in the six months ended May 31, 2018. In the six months ended May 31, 2019, Homebuilding equity in earnings from unconsolidated entities was primarily attributable to our share of net operating income from one of our homebuilding unconsolidated entities. In the six months ended May 31, 2018, Homebuilding equity in loss from unconsolidated entities was primarily attributable to our share


of valuation adjustments related to assets of a homebuilding unconsolidated entity and our share of net operating losses from our homebuilding unconsolidated entities. Homebuilding other income (expense), net, was ($47.7) million in the six months ended May 31, 2019, compared to $179.9 million in the six months ended May 31, 2018. Homebuilding other expense, net in the six months ended May 31, 2019 was primarily due to a one-time loss of $48.9 million from the consolidation of a previously unconsolidated entity. In the six months ended May 31, 2018, Homebuilding other income, net, was primarily related to a gain on the sale of an 80% interest in one of Homebuilding's strategic joint ventures, Treasure Island Holdings.
Homebuilding interest expense was $164.3 million in the six months ended May 31, 2019 ($157.5 million was included in costs of homes sold, $1.0 million in costs of land sold and $5.9 million in other income (expense), net), compared to $127.1 million in the six months ended May 31, 2018 ($120.2 million was included in costs of homes sold, $1.4 million in costs of land sold and $5.4 million in other income (expense), net). Interest expense included in costs of homes sold increased primarily due to an increase in home deliveries. Prior year's interest expense was favorably impacted by purchase accounting related to the CalAtlantic acquisition.
Operating earnings for the Financial Services segment were $84.2 million in the six months ended May 31, 2019 (which included $75.2 million of operating earnings and an add back of $9.1 million of net loss attributable to noncontrolling interests), compared to $81.6 million in the six months ended May 31, 2018. Operating earnings increased primarily due to improvement in the mortgage business as reductions in general and administrative expenses more than offset the decrease in retail origination volume, as a result of the sale of substantially all of our retail mortgage business in the first quarter 2019. This was offset by a decrease in the operating earnings of our title business due to a decrease in retail closed orders as a result of the sale of a majority of the retail agency business and title insurance underwriter in the first quarter of 2019. This decrease in retail volume was partially offset by an increase in captive business volume and a decrease in general and administrative expenses.
Operating earnings for the Multifamily segment were $2.9 million in the six months ended May 31, 2019 (which included $2.5 million of operating earnings and an add back of $0.4 million of net loss attributable to noncontrolling interests), primarily due to the segment's $3.6 million share of a gain as a result of the sale of one operating property by Multifamily's unconsolidated entities, $11.9 million gain on the sale of an investment in an operating property and $5.6 million of promote revenue related to three properties in LMV I, partially offset by general and administrative expenses. In the six months ended May 31, 2018, the Multifamily segment had operating earnings of $13.6 million primarily due to the segment's $21.5 million share of gains as a result of the sale of three operating properties by Multifamily's unconsolidated entities and $5.2 million of promote revenue related to two properties in LMV I, partially offset by general and administrative expenses.
Operating earnings for the Lennar Other segment were $5.2 million in the six months ended May 31, 2019 (which included $4.9 million of operating earnings and an add back of $0.3 million of net loss attributable to noncontrolling interests), compared to $8.1 million in the six months ended May 31, 2018 (which included $6.7 million of operating earnings and an add back of $1.3 million of net loss attributable to noncontrolling interests).
Corporate general and administrative expenses were $155.5 million, or 1.6% as a percentage of total revenues, in the six months ended May 31, 2019, compared to $152.7 million, or 1.8% as a percentage of total revenues, in the six months ended May 31, 2018. The decrease in corporate general and administrative expenses as a percentage of total revenues was due to improved operating leverage as a result of an increase in revenues.
Net earnings (loss) attributable to noncontrolling interests were $14.4In the six months ended May 31, 2019 and 2018, we had tax provisions of $220.2 million and ($5.6) million in the third quarter of 2018 and 2017, respectively. Net earnings attributable to noncontrolling interests in the third quarter of 2018 were primarily attributable to net earnings related to the Lennar Homebuilding consolidated joint ventures. Net loss attributable to noncontrolling interests in the third 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.
In the third quarter of 2018 and 2017, we had a tax provision of $98.3 million and $124.8$208.6 million, respectively. Our overall effective income tax rates were 17.8%25.0% and 33.4%31.8% in the third quarter ofsix months ended May 31, 2019 and 2018, and 2017, respectively. The effective tax rate for the third quarter of 2018 included tax benefits for the tax accounting method changes implemented during the third quarter, energy credits, and domestic production activities deduction.
Nine Months Ended August 31, 2018 versus Nine Months Ended August 31, 2017
On February 12, 2018, we completed our acquisition of CalAtlantic. Prior year information includes only stand alone data for Lennar Corporation.
Revenues from home sales increased 67% in the ninesix months ended AugustMay 31, 2018 to $12.9 billion from $7.7 billion in the nine months ended August 31, 2017. Revenues were higher primarily due to a 52% increase in the number of home deliveries, excluding unconsolidated entities,2019 included state income tax expense and a 10% increase in the average sales price of homes delivered. New home deliveries, excluding unconsolidated entities, increased to 31,412 homes in the nine months ended August 31, 2018 from 20,708 homes in the nine months ended August 31, 2017, primarily as a result of the significant increase in volume in all of our Homebuilding segments and Homebuilding Other resulting from the CalAtlantic acquisition. The average sales price of homes delivered was $409,000 in the nine months ended August 31, 2018, compared to $372,000 in the nine months ended August 31, 2017. The increase in average sales price was primarily resulting from the CalAtlantic acquisition. Sales incentives offered to homebuyers were $22,800 per home delivered in the nine months ended August 31, 2018, or 5.3% as a percentage of home sales revenue, compared to $22,400 per home delivered in the nine months ended August 31, 2017, or 5.7% as a percentage of home sales revenue.
Gross margins on home sales were $2.4 billion, or 18.8%, in the nine months ended August 31, 2018. Excluding the backlog/construction in progress write-up of $376.0 million related to purchase accounting adjustments on CalAtlantic homes that were delivered in the nine months ended August 31, 2018, gross margins on home sales were $2.8 billion or 21.7%. This compared to gross margin on home sales of $1.7 billion, or 21.9%, in the nine months ended August 31, 2017. Gross margin percentage on home sales decreased compared to the nine months ended August 31, 2017 primarily due to higher construction and land costs,non-deductible executive compensation, partially offset by an increase insolar tax credits. For the average sales price of homes delivered.


Selling, general and administrative expenses were $1.1 billion in the ninesix months ended AugustMay 31, 2018, compared to $734.8 million in the nine months ended August 31, 2017. As a percentage of revenues from home sales, selling, general and administrative expenses improved to 8.8% in the nine months ended August 31, 2018, from 9.5% in the nine months ended August 31, 2017, due to improved operating leverage as a result of an increase in home deliveries and continued benefit from technology initiatives. WCI transaction-related expenses had a negative 30 basis point impact to selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenues from home sales in the nine months ended August 31, 2017.
Gross profits on land sales were $22.2 million in the nine months ended August 31, 2018, which included profits of $15.0 million on two strategic land sales. This compared to gross profit on land sales of $8.9 million in the nine months ended August 31, 2017. Lennar Homebuilding equity in loss from unconsolidated entities was $41.9 million in the nine months ended August 31, 2018, compared to $42.7 million in the nine months ended August 31, 2017. In the nine months ended August 31, 2018, Lennar Homebuilding equity in loss from unconsolidated entities was primarily attributable to our share of valuation adjustments related to assets of a Lennar Homebuilding unconsolidated entity and our share of net operating losses from our unconsolidated entities. In the nine months ended August 31, 2017, Lennar Homebuilding equity in loss from unconsolidated entities was attributable to our share of net operating losses from our unconsolidated entities, which was primarily driven by general and administrative expenses as there were no significant land sale transactions for which we recognized our share of earnings. Lennar Homebuilding other income, net, was $192.7 million in the nine months ended August 31, 2018, compared to $12.4 million in the nine months ended August 31, 2017. In the nine months ended August 31, 2018, other income, net, was primarily related to a gain on the sale of an 80% interest in one of Lennar Homebuilding's strategic joint ventures, Treasure Island Holdings.
Lennar Homebuilding loss due to litigation of $140 million in the nine months ended August 31, 2017 was related to litigation regarding a contract we entered into in 2005 to purchase property in Maryland. As a result of the litigation, we purchased the property for $114 million, which approximated our estimate of fair value for the property. In addition, we paid approximately $124 million in interest and other closing costs and have accrued for the amount we expected to pay as reimbursement for attorney's fees.
Lennar Homebuilding interest expense was $214.0 million in the nine months ended August 31, 2018 ($203.2 million was included in costs of homes sold, $2.2 million in costs of land sold and $8.6 million in other income, net), compared to $196.1 million in the nine months ended August 31, 2017 ($187.2 million was included in costs of homes sold, $4.1 million in costs of land sold and $4.8 million in other income, 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 $128.7 million in the nine months ended August 31, 2018, compared to $113.4 million in the nine months ended August 31, 2017. Operating earnings were impacted by an increase in the segment's title and mortgage operations due to the acquisition of CalAtlantic's financial services operations, partially offset by a decrease in refinance transactions and lower mortgage profit per loan originated.
Operating earnings for our Rialto segment were $28.1 million in the nine months ended August 31, 2018 (which included $25.6 million of operating earnings and an add back of $2.6 million of net loss attributable to noncontrolling interests). Operating earnings for the nine months ended August 31, 2017 were $21.4 million (which included a $10.5 million operating loss and an add back of $31.9 million of net loss attributable to noncontrolling interests). The increase in operating earnings was primarily due to a decrease in real estate owned and loan impairments due to the liquidation of the FDIC and bank portfolios and a decrease in general and administrative expenses and interest expense. This increase in operating earnings was partially offset by a decrease in RMF securitization revenues and earnings as a result of a lower average net margin and decreases in incentive, management fee and interest income.
Operating earnings for our Lennar Multifamily segment were $9.7 million in the nine months ended August 31, 2018, primarily due to the segment's $23.3 million share of gains as a result of the sale of four operating properties by Lennar Multifamily's unconsolidated entities and $10.3 million of promote revenue related to four properties in the Venture Fund, partially offset by general and administrative expenses. In the nine months ended August 31, 2017, our Lennar Multifamily segment had operating earnings of $34.8 million primarily due to the segment's $52.9 million share of gains as a result of the sale of five operating properties by Lennar Multifamily's unconsolidated entities and management fee income, partially offset by general and administrative expenses.
Corporate general and administrative expenses were $249.1 million, or 1.8% as a percentage of total revenues, in the nine months ended August 31, 2018, compared to $200.3 million, or 2.3% as a percentage of total revenues, in the nine months ended August 31, 2017. The decrease in corporate general and administrative expenses as a percentage of total revenues is due to improved operating leverage as a result of an increase in revenues.
Net earnings (loss) attributable to noncontrolling interests were $19.6 million and ($26.9) million in the nine months ended August 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Net earnings attributable to noncontrolling interests during the nine months ended August 31, 2018 were primarily attributable to net earnings related to our Lennar Homebuilding consolidated joint


ventures. Net loss attributable to noncontrolling interests in the nine months ended August 31, 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 our Lennar Homebuilding consolidated joint ventures.
For the nine months ended August 31, 2018 and 2017, we had a tax provision of $306.9 million and $253.7 million, respectively. Our overall effective income tax rates were 25.4% and 33.6% in the nine months ended August 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. The effective tax rate for the nine months ended August 31, 2018 included a $68.6 million non-cash one-time write down of the deferred tax assets due to the enactment of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act and state income tax expense, offset primarily by tax benefits for tax accounting method changes implemented during the third quarter, energy tax credits, and the domestic production activities deduction. Excluding the one-time non-cash deferred tax asset write down of $68.6 million recorded in the first quarter of 2018 due to the tax reform bill and the $34.1 million benefit recorded in the third quarter of 2018, the tax rate for the nine months ended August 31, 2018 would have been 22.6%. The effective tax rate for the nine months ended August 31, 2017 included tax benefits for settlements with the IRS, the domestic production activities deduction, and energy tax credits, offset primarily by state incomecredits. Excluding the impact of the write down of the deferred tax expense, and valuation allowance recorded against state net operating losses we expected to expire unutilized.

assets, the effective tax rate for the six months ended May 31, 2018 was 21.4%.


Homebuilding Segments
We have aggregatedIn connection with the CalAtlantic acquisition, we experienced significant growth in our homebuilding activitiesoperations. As a result, at the end of fiscal 2018, our chief operating decision makers ("CODM") reassessed how they evaluate the business and allocate resources. The CODM manage and assess our performance at a regional level. Therefore, in 2018 we performed an assessment of our operating segments in accordance with ASC 280, Segment Reporting, (“ASC 280”) and determined that each of our four homebuilding regions, financial services operations, multifamily operations and Rialto operations are our operating segments. Prior to this change, in accordance with the aggregation criteria defined in ASC 280, our operating segments were aggregated 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 activitiesIn addition, in states that do notfirst quarter of 2019, as a result of the reclassification of RMF and certain other Rialto assets from the Rialto segment to the Financial Services segment effective December 1, 2018, we renamed the Rialto segment as "Lennar Other" and included in this segment certain strategic technology investments, which were reclassified from the Homebuilding segments to Lennar Other. Prior periods have economic characteristics that are similarbeen reclassified to those in other states inconform with the same geographic area is grouped under "Homebuilding Other," which is not a reportable segment. This includes Indiana and Utah which are states with operations acquired from CalAtlantic.2019 presentation. References in this Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations to homebuildingHomebuilding segments are to those threefour reportable segments.
At AugustMay 31, 2018,2019, our reportable homebuildingHomebuilding segments and Homebuilding Other consisted of homebuilding divisions located in:
East: Florida, Georgia, Maryland, New Jersey, North Carolina and South Carolina

Backlog represents the number of homes under sales contracts. Homes are sold using sales contracts, which are generally accompanied by sales deposits. In some instances, purchasers are permitted to cancel sales if they fail to qualify for financing or under certain other circumstances. We do not recognize revenue on homes under sales contracts until the sales are closed and title passes to the new homeowners.

Rialto Segment
Our Rialto reportable segment isConsistent with our reversion to a commercialpure-play homebuilder, during the first quarter of 2019, we sold the majority of our retail title agency business and title insurance underwriter, substantially all of our retail mortgage business and our real estate investment, investment management,brokerage business. These transactions resulted in a net gain of $1.7 million.
In connection with the sale of the majority of our retail title agency business and finance company focused on raising, investingtitle insurance underwriter, we provided seller financing and managing third-party capital, originatingreceived a substantial minority equity ownership stake in the buyer. Due to the combination of both the equity and selling into securitizationsdebt components of this transaction, the transaction did not meet the accounting requirements for sale treatment and, therefore, we are required to consolidate the buyer’s results at this time.
At May 31, 2019 and November 30, 2018, the carrying value of Financial Services' commercial mortgage loans as well as investing our own capital in real estate related mortgage loans, propertiesmortgage-backed securities ("CMBS") was $167.0 million and related securities. Rialto utilizes its vertically-integrated investment$137.0 million, respectively. These securities were purchased at discounts ranging from 6% to 84% with coupon rates ranging from 2.0% to 5.3%, stated and operating platform to underwrite, perform diligence, acquire, manage, workoutassumed final distribution dates between October 2027 and add value to diverse portfolios of real estate loans, propertiesDecember 2028, and stated maturity dates between October 2050 and December 2051.

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 variable interest entities ("VIEs") and since we were determined to be the primary beneficiary, we consolidated the LLCs. In February 2017, the FDIC exercised its “clean-up call rights” under the Amended and Restated Limited Liability Company Agreement. As a result, Rialto had until July 10, 2017 to liquidate and sell the assets in the FDIC Portfolios. On July 10, 2017, Rialto and the FDIC entered into an agreement which extended the original agreement date to January 10, 2018. Since January 11, 2018, (1) the FDIC has had the right, at its discretion, to sell any remaining assets, or (2) Rialto has had the option to purchase the FDIC's interest in the portfolios.

Our management believes 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 Homebuildinghomebuilding 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.

As part of purchase accounting, the senior notes have been recorded at their fair value as of the date of acquisition (February 12, 2018).
The carrying amounts of the senior notes listedin the table above are net of debt issuance costs of $33.5$26.9 million and $31.2 million as of both AugustMay 31, 20182019 and November 30, 2017.
During the second quarter 2018, holders of $6.7 million principal amount of CalAtlantic’s 1.625% convertible senior notes due 2018 and $266.2 million principal amount of CalAtlantic’s 0.25% convertible senior notes due 2019 either caused us to purchase them for cash or converted them into a combination of our Class A and Class B common stock and cash, resulting in our issuing approximately 3,654,000 shares of Class A common stock and 72,000 shares of Class B common stock, and paying $59.1 million in cash to former noteholders. All but $1.3 million of the principal balance of the convertible senior notes had either been converted or redeemed.


In May 2018, we redeemed $575 million aggregate principal amount of the 8.375% Senior Notes due 2018. The redemption price, which was paid in cash, was 100% of the principal amount plus accrued but unpaid interest. The 8.375% Senior Notes due 2018 with $575 million of principal amount were obligations of CalAtlantic when it was acquired and $485.6 million of principal amount was subsequently exchanged in part for Lennar notes.
In June 2018, we redeemed $250 million aggregate principal amount of the 6.95% Senior Notes. The redemption price, which was paid in cash, was 100% of the principal amount plus accrued but unpaid interest.respectively.
Our Lennar Homebuilding average debt outstanding was $9.1$9.2 billion with an average rate for interest incurred of 4.9% for the six months ended May 31, 2019, compared to $8.8 billion with an average rate for interest incurred of 4.8% for the ninesix months ended AugustMay 31, 2018, compared to $5.6 billion with an average rate for interest incurred of 4.9% for the nine months ended August 31, 2017.2018. Interest incurred related to Lennar Homebuilding debt for the ninesix months ended AugustMay 31, 20182019 was $314.0$212.6 million, compared to $219.9$201.0 million for the ninesix months ended AugustMay 31, 2017.2018.
In February 2018,April 2019, we amended our credit agreement governing our Credit Facility to increase the maximum borrowingscommitments from $2.0$2.3 billion to $2.6$2.4 billion and extend the maturity on $2.2 billion of the Credit Facility from June 2022one year to April 2023,2024, with $70 million that matured in June 2018 and the remaining $50 million maturing in June 2020. As of August 31, 2018, theOur Credit Facility includedhas a $315$400 million accordion feature, subject to additional commitments.commitments, thus the maximum borrowings are $2.8 billion. 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. TheOur credit agreement also provides that up to $500 million in commitments may be used for letters of credit. As of August 31, 2018, we had $650 million of outstanding borrowings under our Credit Facility. As of November 30, 2017, 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 underUnder our Credit Facility atagreement, we are 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 end of a period may not be reflective of the total amounts outstanding during the period.Credit Facility agreement, which involves adjustments to GAAP financial measures. We believe that we were in compliance with our debt covenants at AugustMay 31, 2018.2019. In addition, we had $365$315 million of letter of credit facilities with different financial institutions.
Our performance letters of credit outstanding were $542.2$663.0 million and $384.4$598.4 million, respectively, at AugustMay 31, 20182019 and November 30, 2017.2018, respectively. Our financial letters of credit outstanding were $183.3$158.5 million and $127.4$165.4 million at AugustMay 31, 20182019 and November 30, 2017,2018, 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, as credit enhancements and as other collateral. Additionally, at August


May 31, 2018,2019, we had outstanding surety bonds of $2.6$2.8 billion including performance surety bonds related to site improvements at various projects (including certain projects of our joint ventures) and financial surety bonds.
Subsequent to May 31, 2019, we redeemed $500 million aggregate principal amount of our 4.500% senior notes due June 2019. The redemption price, which was paid in cash, was 100% of the principal amount plus accrued but unpaid interest.
Under the amended Credit Facility agreement executed in February 2018April 2019 (the "Credit Agreement"), as of the end of each fiscal quarter, we are required to maintain minimum consolidated tangible net worth of approximately $6.0$7.1 billion plus the sum of 50% of the cumulative consolidated net income for each completed fiscal quarter subsequent to February 28, 2018,2019, if positive, and 50% of the net cash proceeds from any equity offerings from and after February 28, 2018,2019, minus the lesser of 50% of the amount paid after February 12, 2018April 11, 2019 to repurchase common stock and $100$375 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.

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. In addition, some subsidiaries of CalAtlantic are guaranteeing CalAtlantic convertible senior notes that are also guaranteed by Lennar Corporation.
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 uses these facilities to finance its residential mortgage 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 $966.5$882.0 million and $937.2 million$1.3 billion at AugustMay 31, 20182019 and November 30, 2017,2018, respectively, and were collateralized by mortgage loans and receivables on loans sold to investors but not yet paid for with outstanding principal balances of $1.0$911.5 million and $1.3 billion, and $974.1 million, at AugustMay 31, 20182019 and November 30, 2017,2018, respectively. Without the facilities, our Lennar Financial Services segment would have to use cash from operations and other funding sources to finance its residential mortgage 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.

RialtoRMF uses this warehouse repurchase facility to finance the origination of floating rate accrual loans, which are reported as accrual loans within loans receivable,held-for-investment, net. There were no borrowings under this facility as of either Augustboth May 31, 2018 or 2019 and November 30, 2017.

Borrowings under the facilities that finance RMF's commercial loan originations and securitization activities were $94.5$155.9 million and $162.1$178.8 million as of AugustMay 31, 20182019 and November 30, 2017,2018, 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. If the facilities are not renewed or replaced, the borrowings under the lines of credit will be paid off by selling the loans held-for-sale to investors. Without the facilities, the RialtoFinancial Services segment would have to use cash from operations and other funding sources to finance its lending activities.
In March 2018, Rialto paid off the remaining principal balance of its 7.00% senior notes due December 2018 (the "7.00% Senior Notes"). As of November 30, 2017, the carrying amount, net of debt issuance costs, of the 7.00% Senior Notes was $349.4 million.
Changes in Capital Structure
In January 2019, our Board of Directors authorized us to repurchase up to the lesser of $1 billion in value, or 25 million in shares, of our outstanding Class A and Class B common stock. The repurchase authorization has no expiration date. During the ninethree months ended AugustMay 31, 2019, under this repurchase program, we repurchased one million shares of our Class A common stock for approximately $51.8 million at an average share price of $51.76. During the six months ended May 31, 2019, under this repurchase program, we repurchased two million shares of our Class A common stock for approximately $98.8 million at an average share price of $49.37.
During the six months ended May 31, 2019, treasury stock increased by 2.1 million shares of Class A common stock due primarily to our repurchase of two million shares of Class A common stock during the six months ended May 31, 2019 through our stock repurchase program. During the six months ended May 31, 2018, treasury stock increased by 1.00.5 million shares of Class A common stock primarily due to activity related to our equity compensation plan.
On July 26, 2018,May 8, 2019, 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 July 12, 2018,April 24, 2019, as declared by our Board of Directors on April 10, 2019. On June 27, 2018. On October 4, 2018,26, 2019, our Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.04 per share on both of our Class A and Class B common stock, payable November 2, 2018on July 25, 2019 to holders of record at the close of business on October 19,July 11, 2019. We approved and paid cash dividends of $0.04 per share for both its Class A and Class B common stock in each quarter for the year ended November 30, 2018.


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 AugustMay 31, 2018,2019, we had equity investments in 5854 homebuilding and land unconsolidated entities (of which fourat May 31, 2019, three had recourse debt, teneight had non-recourse debt and 4443 had no debt), compared to 3851 homebuilding and land unconsolidated entities at November 30, 2017. This includes 20 unconsolidated entities in which CalAtlantic or a subsidiary is the participant.2018. 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 partners. 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)During the three and ninesix months ended AugustMay 31, 2019, other income was primarily attributable to a $64.9 million gain on the settlement of contingent consideration recorded by one Homebuilding unconsolidated entity, of which our pro-rata share was $25.9 million. During the three and six months ended May 31, 2018, other income was primarily due to FivePoint, a publicly traded company, recording income resulting from the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017’s reduction in its corporate tax rate to reduce its liability pursuant to its tax receivable agreement (“TRA Liability”) with its non-controlling interests. However, we have a 70% interest in the FivePoint TRA Liability. Therefore, we did not include in Lennar Homebuilding’s equity in lossearnings (loss) from unconsolidated entities its pro-rata share of earnings related to our portion of the TRA Liability. As a result, our unconsolidated entities have net earnings, but we have an equity in loss from unconsolidated entities.
(2)Our share of profit and cash distributions from the sales of land could be higher or lower compared to our ownership interest in unconsolidated entities if certain specified internal rate of return or cash flow milestones are achieved.

The increasedecrease in debt was primarily related to $500 millionthe consolidation of senior notes issued by FivePoint.an entity as of May 31, 2019.
In May 2017, FivePoint completed its initial public offering ("IPO"). Concurrent with the IPO, we invested an additional $100 million in FivePoint in a private placement. As of August 31, 2018, we owned approximately 40% of FivePoint and the carrying amount of our investment was $358.9 million.
As of AugustMay 31, 20182019 and November 30, 2017,2018, our recorded investments in Lennar Homebuilding unconsolidated entities were $997.5$983.7 million and $900.8$870.2 million, respectively, while the underlying equity in Lennar Homebuilding unconsolidated entities partners’ net assets as of both AugustMay 31, 20182019 and November 30, 2017 was2018 were $1.3 billion.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.
In 2017, we entered into a Membership Interest Purchase Agreement Included in our recorded investments in Homebuilding unconsolidated entities is our 40% ownership of FivePoint. As of May 31, 2019 and a Payment Escrow Agreement (“Agreement”) with oneNovember 30, 2018, the carrying amount of our investment was $389.1 million and $342.7 million, respectively.
During the six months ended May 31, 2018, we sold 80% of a strategic joint ventures under which we agreed to sell 80%venture to a third-party. Under the terms of the Agreement, the sale transaction was contingent upon the satisfaction of certain conditions. In January 2018, conditions were fulfilled and the transaction was closedthird-party resulting in a gain of $164.9 million recorded in Lennar Homebuilding other income, net within the accompanying condensed consolidated statementCondensed Consolidated Statement of operations for the nine months ended August 31, 2018.Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss).
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:

(1)As of November 30, 2018, total investments does not include the ($62.0) million balance for one unconsolidated entity as it was reclassed to other liabilities.
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:

(1)The increase in non-recourse debt without completion guarantees was primarily related to $500 million of senior notes issued by FivePoint.
(2)As of both AugustMay 31, 20182019 and November 30, 2017,2018, our maximum recourse exposure was primarily related to us providing repayment guarantees on threetwo and four unconsolidated entities' debt.debt, respectively. The decrease in maximum recourse exposure and total debt was primarily related to our consolidation of a previously unconsolidated entity as of May 31, 2019.
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 AugustMay 31, 20182019 and November 30, 2017,2018, the fair values of the repayment, maintenance, and completion guarantees were not material. We believe that as of AugustMay 31, 2018,2019, 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 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 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 AugustMay 31, 20182019 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 as follows:

(1)During the three and nine months ended August 31, 2018, Rialto received $3.4 million and $9.1 million, respectively, of carried interest distributions, net of prior advance distributions, with regard to its carried interest in Rialto Real Estate Fund, LP and Rialto Real Estate Fund II, LP. During the three and nine months ended August 31, 2017, Rialto received $10.6 million and $29.4 million, respectively, of carried interest distributions, net of prior advance distributions, with regard to its carried interest in Rialto Real Estate Fund, LP and Rialto Real Estate Fund II, LP.
The following table represents amounts Rialto would have received had the funds ceased operations and hypothetically liquidated all their investments at their estimated fair values on August 31, 2018, both gross and net of amounts already received as advanced tax distributions. The actual amounts Rialto may receive could be materially different from amounts presented in the table below.

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 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:

Lennar Multifamily: Investments in Unconsolidated Entities
At AugustMay 31, 2018, Lennar2019, Multifamily had equity investments in 2418 unconsolidated entities that are engaged in multifamily residential developments (of which 116 had non-recourse debt and 1312 had no debt), compared to 2722 unconsolidated entities at November 30, 2017.2018. 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 FundLMV I 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.

There are 1318 completed and operating multifamily assets with 3,9565,111 apartments. During the ninesix months ended AugustMay 31, 2018, $316.12019, $121.8 million in equity commitments were called, of which we contributed $73.4$30.2 million representing our pro-rata


portion of the called equity. During the ninesix months ended AugustMay 31, 2018,2019, we received $11.8$9.5 million of distributions as a return of capital from the Venture Fund.LMV I. As of AugustMay 31, 2018, $1.82019, $1.9 billion of the $2.2 billion in equity commitments had been called, of which we had contributed $424.1


$471.1 million representing our pro-rata portion of the called equity, resulting in a remaining equity commitment for us of $79.9$32.9 million. As of AugustMay 31, 20182019 and November 30, 2017,2018, the carrying value of our investment in the Venture FundLMV I was $378.2$395.4 million and $323.8$383.4 million, respectively.
In March 2018, the Lennarour Multifamily segment completed the first closing of a second Lennar Multifamily Venture, Venture FundLMV II, for the development, construction and property management of class-A multifamily assets. WithDuring the first close, Venture Fundthree months ended May 31, 2019, LMV II's equity commitments were increased by an additional $471 million, including $126 million additional co-investment commitment by us. As of May 31, 2019, LMV II hashad approximately $655 million$1.3 billion of equity commitments, including a $255$381 million co-investment commitment by Lennarus comprised of cash, undeveloped land and preacquisition costs. As of and duringDuring the ninesix months ended AugustMay 31, 2018, $146.12019, $138.3 million in equity commitments were called, of which we contributed our portion of $55.4$23.5 million, which was made up of a $108.3$64.5 million of inventory and cash contributions, offset by $52.9$40.9 million of distributions as a return of capital resulting in a remaining equity commitment for us of $199.6$276.3 million. As of AugustMay 31, 2019, $349.4 million of the $1.3 billion in equity commitments had been called of which we had contributed $104.5 million, representing our pro-rata share of the called equity. As of May 31, 2019 and November 30, 2018, the carrying value of our investment in the Venture FundLMV II was $45.6 million.$85.0 million and $63.0 million, respectively. The difference between our net contributions and the carrying value of our investments was related to a basis difference. Venture FundLMV II was seeded initially with sixeight undeveloped multifamily assets that were previously purchased by the Lennarour Multifamily segment totaling approximately 2,2003,000 apartments with projected project costs of approximately $900 million.$1.3 billion. As of May 31, 2019, LMV II was seeded with ten undeveloped assets totaling approximately 3,800 apartments with projected costs of approximately $1.6 billion. Subsequent to May 31, 2019, the Multifamily segment announced the final closing of LMV II with $1.3 billion of equity commitments.
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 AugustMay 31, 2018.2019.

(1)During the six months ended May 31, 2019, our Multifamily segment sold, through its unconsolidated entities, one operating property and an investment in an operating property resulting in the segment's $15.5 million share of gains. The gain of $11.9 million recognized on the sale of the investment in an operating property and recognition of our share of deferred development fees that were capitalized at the joint venture level are included in Multifamily equity in earnings (loss) from unconsolidated entities and other gain, and are not included in net earnings (loss) of unconsolidated entities. During the three and ninesix months ended AugustMay 31, 2018, our Lennar Multifamily segment sold onetwo and fourthree operating properties, respectively, through its unconsolidated entities resulting in the segment's $1.7$17.4 million and $23.3$21.5 million share of gains, respectively.

Lennar Other: Investments in Unconsolidated Entities
We sold our Rialto Management Group on November 30, 2018. We retained our fund investments along with our carried interests in various Rialto funds and investments in other balance sheet assets. Our limited partner investments in Rialto funds and investment vehicles totaled $301.7 million at May 31, 2019. We are committed to invest as much as an additional $49.0 million in Rialto funds.
As part of the sale of the Rialto investment and asset management platform, we retained our ability to receive a portion of payments with regard to carried interests if funds meet specified performance thresholds. We will periodically receive advance distributions related to the carried interests in order to cover income tax obligations resulting from allocations of taxable income to the carried interests. These distributions are not subject to clawbacks but will reduce future carried interest payments to which we become entitled from the applicable funds and have been recorded as revenues.
The following table represents amounts our Lennar Other segment would have received had the Rialto funds ceased operations and hypothetically liquidated all their investments at their estimated fair values on May 31, 2019, both gross and net of amounts already received as advanced tax distributions. The actual amounts we may receive could be materially different from amounts presented in the table below.

respectively, through its unconsolidated entities resulting in the segment's $15.4 million and $52.9 million share of gains.
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 AugustMay 31, 20182019 and 2017:2018:

(1)The increase in homesites at August 31, 2018 was primarily due to the acquisition of approximately 68,000 homesites as part of the CalAtlantic acquisition.
We evaluate certain 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. Over the next several years, we plan to increase the controlled homesites to approximately 40% of our entire homesite inventory from approximately 22%25% as of AugustMay 31, 2018.2019. Recently, we have undertaken several strategic land initiatives which include acquiring fully developed homesites from regional developers and may also include building homes in bulk for landowners who will retain them as rental properties.
During the ninesix months ended AugustMay 31, 2018,2019, consolidated inventory not owned decreasedincreased by $64.4$185.7 million with a corresponding decreaseincrease to liabilities related to consolidated inventory not owned in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of AugustMay 31, 2018.2019. The decreaseincrease was primarily due to a higher amountthe consolidation of homesite takedowns than construction started on homesites not owned.option contracts, partially offset by us exercising our options to acquire land under previously consolidated contracts. To reflect the purchase price of the inventory that was 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 AugustMay 31, 2018.2019. 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 option contracts with third parties and unconsolidated entities consisted of non-refundable option deposits and pre-acquisition costs totaling $241.1$326.8 million and $137.0$209.5 million at AugustMay 31, 20182019 and November 30, 2017,2018, respectively. Additionally, we had posted $72.2$69.1 million and $51.8$72.4 million of letters of credit in lieu of cash deposits under certain land and option contracts as of AugustMay 31, 20182019 and November 30, 2017,2018, 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, 2017,2018, due to the following:
As part of the CalAtlantic acquisition on February 12, 2018, we became subject, on a consolidated basis, to $3.9 billion of senior notes payable and other debts payable.
In May 2018, we redeemed $575 million aggregate principal amount of the 8.375% Senior Notes due 2018.
In June 2018, we redeemed $250 million aggregate principal amount of the 6.95% Senior Notes.
As of August 31, 2018, we had $650 million of outstanding borrowings under our Credit Facility.
As of August 31, 2018, borrowings under Rialto's and Lennar Financial Services' warehouse repurchase facilities were $94.5 million and $966.5 million, respectively.

These amounts 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 August 31, 2018.
(4)Amounts include $79.9 million remaining equity commitment to fund the Venture Fund for future expenditures related to the construction and development of projects and $199.6 million remaining equity commitment to fund Venture Fund II for future expenditures related to construction and development of projects.
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 AugustMay 31, 2018,2019, we had access to 56,70073,526 homesites through option contracts with third parties and unconsolidated entities in which we have investments. At AugustMay 31, 2018,2019, we had $241.1$326.8 million of non-refundable option deposits and pre-acquisition costs related to certain of these homesites and had posted $72.2$69.1 million of letters of credit in lieu of cash deposits under certain land and option contracts.
At AugustMay 31, 2018,2019, we had letters of credit outstanding in the amount of $725.5$821.5 million (which included $72.2the $69.1 million of letters of credit described 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 AugustMay 31, 2018,2019, we had outstanding surety bonds of $2.6$2.8 billion including performance surety bonds related to site improvements at various projects (including certain projects of our joint ventures) and financial surety bonds. 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 AugustMay 31, 2018,2019, there were approximately $1.4$1.3 billion, or 52%46%, 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 residential mortgage loan applications in process of $4.8$4.2 billion at AugustMay 31, 2018.2019. Loans in process for which interest rates were committed to the borrowers totaled approximately $802.2$744.2 million as of AugustMay 31, 2018.2019. 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, futures 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, futures 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 AugustMay 31, 2018,2019, we had open commitments amounting to $1.5 billion to sell MBS with varying settlement dates through November 2018August 2019 and there were no open futures contracts in the amount of $280 million with settlement dates through June 2025.

(4) Critical Accounting Policies
We believe that there have been no significant changes to our critical accounting policies during the ninesix months ended AugustMay 31, 20182019 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, 20172018., except those policies as a result of the adoption of ASC 606 as of December 1, 2018, for which we updated our revenue recognition policies as noted in Note 1 of the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and as included below:
Revenue Recognition
Homebuilding revenues and related profits from sales of homes are recognized at the time of the closing of a sale, when title to and possession of the property are transferred to the homebuyer. Our performance obligation, to deliver the agreed-upon home, is generally satisfied in less than one year from the original contract date. Cash proceeds from home closings held in escrow for our benefit, typically for approximately three days, are included in Homebuilding cash and cash equivalents in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and disclosed in footnote 11 of the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. Contract liabilities include customer deposits liabilities related to sold but undelivered homes that are included in


other liabilities in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. We periodically elects to sell parcels of land to third parties. Cash consideration from land sales is typically due on the closing date, which is generally when performance obligations are satisfied and revenue is recognized as title to and possession of the property are transferred to the buyer.
Our financial services’ operations recognize revenues as follows: Title premiums on policies issued directly by us are recognized as revenue on the effective date of the title policies. Escrow fees and loan origination revenues are recognized at the time the related real estate transactions are completed, usually upon the close of escrow. Revenues from title policies issued by independent agents are recognized as revenue when notice of issuance is received from the agent, which is generally when cash payment is received by us.
Our Multifamily segment provides management services with respect to the development, construction and property management of rental projects in joint ventures in which we have investments. As a result, the Multifamily segment earns and receives fees, which are generally based upon a stated percentage of development and construction costs and a percentage of gross rental collections. These fees are recorded over the period in which the services are performed using an input method, which properly depicts the level of effort required to complete the management services. In addition, the Multifamily segment provides general contractor services for the construction of some of its rental projects and recognizes the revenue over the period in which the services are performed using an input method, which properly depicts the level of effort required to complete the construction services. These customer contracts require us to provide management and general contractor services which represents a performance obligation that we satisfy over time. Management fees and general contractor services in the Multifamily segment are included in Multifamily revenue.



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.
As part of the CalAtlantic acquisition on February 12, 2018, we became subject, on a consolidated basis, to $3.9 billion of senior notes payable and other debts payable.
In May 2018, we redeemed $575 million aggregate principal amount of the 8.375% Senior Notes due 2018.
In June 2018, we redeemed $250 million aggregate principal amount of the 6.95% Senior Notes.
As of August 31, 2018,2019, we had $650$550 million of outstanding borrowings under our Credit Facility.
As of May 31, 2019, borrowings under Financial Services' warehouse repurchase facilities totaled $882.0 million under residential loan facilities and $155.9 million under RMF facilities.
