Item 9. Regulation FD Disclosure (Being Provided Under Item 12).
On June 15, 2004, Lennar Corporation issued a press release containing information about its results of operations for the three and six months ended May 31, 2004. A copy of this press release is included as an exhibit to this Report.
Our press release included our earnings before interest and provision for income taxes (“EBIT”) for the three and six months ended May 31, 2004, as well as a table reconciling the computation of EBIT to our earnings for those periods. EBIT is not a financial measure in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Nonetheless, our management uses EBIT because it helps them compare the efficiency and effectiveness of our operations with those of our competitors, by eliminating factors that differ from company to company for reasons that often are not related to the efficiency and effectiveness of the companies’ operations. Our management believes EBIT provides useful information to investors and analysts, because it will help them compare the efficiency and effectiveness of our operations with those of our competitors.
