quarter of exceptional net sales orders, with each of our reporting regions
producing double digit sales dollar increases. Through June 30th, the Company

income, approximately what we earned in all of fiscal year 2003. These
results ensure fiscal year 2004 will be our 27th consecutive year of growth
and profitability. Our continued sales momentum and $5.2 billion sales backlog
position D.R. Horton for another record year in fiscal year 2005."
