Donald R. Horton, Chairman of the Board, said, "Market conditions
in the homebuilding industry continue to be challenging in most of our
markets as inventory levels of both new and existing homes remain
high, and further increases in the use of sales incentives continue to
put pressure on profit margins. Our focus on managing our balance
sheet in a disciplined manner resulted in positive cash flows from
operations for the third consecutive quarter. We also improved our
ratio of homebuilding debt to total capitalization, net of cash, to
40.9% from 43.9% a year ago."
The Company will host a conference call on Thursday, April 19,
2007 at 10:00 a.m. Eastern Daylight Time. The dial-in number is
