PART I


Item 1.	*Business*

General

Capital Pacific Holdings, Inc. (“CPH, Inc.”), together with its subsidiaries (the “Company”), is a regional homebuilder and developer with operations throughout selected metropolitan areas of California, Texas, Arizona and Colorado. The Company conducts its homebuilding business through its wholly-owned subsidiary Capital Pacific Holdings, LLC (“CPH LLC”) and through single purpose joint venture entities. Joint venture entities are used principally in circumstances in which a third party provides capital or other financing for a project. In addition to its owned projects, the Company through one of its wholly-owned subsidiaries manages certain homebuilding projects in which it formerly had an equity interest (the “Managed Projects”). With respect to these Managed Projects, the Company is reimbursed its direct costs and paid a management fee representing an allocation of overhead. CPH, Inc. also conducts certain other activities related to homebuilding, including mortgage brokerage operations, design centers and land development activities, principally through various other subsidiaries and joint ventures. CPH LLC’s principal business activities are to build and sell single-family homes. The Company’s single-family homes are targeted to entry-level, move-up and semi-custom luxury buyers. Since 1975, the Company has built and sold nearly 25,000 homes in the markets it serves. During the fiscal year ended February 28, 2003, the Company (including unconsolidated joint ventures but excluding Managed Projects) closed 1,467 home and lot sales, including 720 homes, at an average home sales price of $330,000. Revenues for the same period (including unconsolidated joint ventures but excluding Managed Projects) totaled $268.5 million. Including Managed Projects, revenues totaled $297.6 million. The Company currently conducts its operations principally under the name Capital Pacific Homes.

Assets owned and under management, including assets owned by unconsolidated joint ventures and Managed Projects, totaled $513 million at February 28, 2003 in 65 residential properties. At February 28, 2003, CPH, Inc.’s wholly-owned subsidiary, CPH LLC, had $238 million in assets and a net worth of $107 million. CPH LLC, the Managed Projects and certain other project-specific entities indemnify CPH, Inc. and its subsidiaries against liabilities arising from the projects owned by such entities.

References to the Company are, unless the context indicates otherwise, also references to CPH LLC, the project-specific joint venture entities and its other subsidiaries. At the current time, all material financing transactions and arrangements are incurred either by CPH LLC or by the project-specific entities.

Strategy

The Company’s long-term strategy includes the following key elements:


	(1) Maintaining diversity in its geographic markets. The Company believes that geographic market diversification is a key element in achieving long-term stability and growth. While the Company has no specific plans to expand outside the California, Texas, Arizona and Colorado markets, it may consider expansion to other markets in the future.

	(2) Diversifying its product. The Company builds homes targeted for all price segments, from entry-level buyers to the semi-custom luxury market move-up buyers, so that it is able to deliver well-priced homes to a broad segment of its potential customer base. Within Texas, Arizona and Colorado, the Company serves the entry level as well as move-up markets. Within California, the Company has products targeted toward first, second and third time move-up buyers, as well as the million dollar luxury market. This product diversification enables the Company to adapt to changing market conditions.

	(3) Enhancing the Company’s capital base and sources of financial liquidity. This has been a principal focus of the Company over the past several years. The Company has substantially improved its leverage ratios and reduced its debt costs. In fiscal year 1995, the Company accessed the public debt capital markets through the sale of $100 million of 12 3/4% Senior Notes (“Senior Notes”) including 790,000 warrants to purchase common stock (the “Offering”). The Senior Notes were due May 1, 2002


	and have been fully repurchased or redeemed. During fiscal 2002, the Company repurchased the remaining $55.6 million of the Senior Notes and its wholly-owned subsidiary, CPH LLC, entered into a senior unsecured revolving credit facility with a maximum commitment of $125 million, which has since been increased to $140 million. This has substantially lowered the Company’s borrowing costs. Credit facilities in place at February 28, 2003 totaled $208 million, of which $120 million was outstanding. In addition, the Company has begun utilizing project level lot development financing to enhance the efficiency of its utilization of its capital and its unsecured credit facility. The Company believes this financing strategy allows orderly growth and greater flexibility to react quickly to changing market conditions. The Company also utilizes joint ventures within its operations as a source of financing and risk management. The Company is also considering additional sources of financing for the purpose of credit diversification and expansion.

	(4) Controlling costs and maintaining operational efficiency. The Company has job cost, warranty tracking and construction scheduling systems and other quality control processes to control costs and to reduce the effect of certain risks inherent in the homebuilding industry. The Company has made a substantial investment in its information systems. These systems and controls enable the Company to effectively monitor its operations and improve its efficiencies.

	(5) Minimizing inventory risk. CPH LLC tries to carefully manage its land and inventory risk in a variety of ways. CPH LLC monitors its supply of owned, optioned and controlled land to maintain an adequate pipeline of building lots in each of its markets while avoiding excess land holdings. For its homebuilding projects, CPH LLC generally prefers to purchase entitled land, generally defined as land that has received the majority of the land use approvals necessary for residential development from the appropriate state, county and local governments, typically in parcels of 50 to 250 lots, and makes use of options, seller financing, lot development financing and joint ventures, when available, to reduce its capital commitment on individual projects in order to be in a position to allocate its capital among a larger number of projects and properties. CPH LLC generally tries to limit its speculative building by commencing construction only after some sales have been made and tries to limit the size of each construction phase. CPH LLC generally purchases and holds land in amounts sufficient to support home production and sales over a 24 to 48 month period.

	(6) Land Development. In certain markets, often in project-specific joint ventures, the Company may purchase unentitled land, with the intention of obtaining the required entitlements and then either selling the unimproved land, developing lots and selling them to other builders or building and selling homes itself. Depending upon the available inventory of entitled land in the Company’s markets, the Company’s land development activities may vary.

Homebuilding Geographic Markets

At February 28, 2003, the Company, either directly or through joint ventures, including four Managed Projects in which the Company does not have an equity ownership interest, controlled lots in various stages of development with respect to approximately 65 residential projects. The Company is currently selling homes in 29 of these projects. As detailed in Item 7 below, the Company anticipates opening between 8 and 10 net new projects in the current fiscal year. The Company’s homes for sale (including Managed Projects) currently range in size from 1,200 to 8,000 square feet and are currently priced from $109,000 to slightly over $4,000,000.

The following table sets forth the estimated number of homes under construction and lots owned, under option and controlled as of February 28, 2003:

Joint Ventures

The Company conducts its operations as either wholly-owned projects or through joint ventures in which the joint venture partner typically provides more than a majority of the capital and/or financing required for the project. The Company has utilized joint ventures in order to increase access to sources of capital, financing and land. The Company expects to continue to utilize joint ventures in the future on a selective basis, taking into account other available sources of financing, project risk and the potential return to the Company. The use of joint ventures may vary in the future in order to enable the Company to control an adequate supply of lots while minimizing capital commitments. The Company typically is required to fund a small percentage of the capital requirements of each joint venture, which amount is included in investments in and advances to unconsolidated joint ventures in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets.

At February 28, 2003, the Company’s consolidated subsidiaries, unconsolidated joint ventures and Managed Projects, were as follows:

(a)	The phasing for this project is currently being determined. The joint venture owns approximately 21,400 acres of entitled land in Colorado Springs, Colorado, which is currently zoned for a potential density of approximately 76,000 residential units and 48 million square feet of commercial, industrial and office space. Based upon a variety of factors, including without limitation economic conditions and the availability of city services and utilities and government actions, the achievable density may vary.

(b)	Previously unconsolidated joint ventures. The Company’s sole economic interest in the Managed Projects is through management agreements.

(c)	Includes two residential projects.

Land Acquisition

For typical residential developments, CPH LLC tries to purchase and hold land in amounts sufficient to support home production and sales over a 24 to 48 month period. CPH LLC also tries to maintain additional supplies of land through options and other means. CPH LLC typically does not acquire and hold land for speculative investment, but on several occasions has sold some or all of the lots in a project simultaneously with the acquisition of such lots by CPH LLC.

CPH LLC typically considers numerous factors when analyzing the suitability of land for acquisition and development including, but not limited to, proximity to existing developed areas; population growth patterns; availability of existing community services (i.e., utilities, schools and transportation); employment growth rates; anticipated absorption rates for new housing; and the estimated cost of development.

CPH LLC tries to avoid speculative building by constraining project phase sizes, and entitlement risks by acquiring entitled land when practicable and acquiring lots through the use of options, development agreements and joint ventures with lot owners, when available on favorable terms. Additionally, by forming joint ventures with various sources of capital, the Company has been able to obtain access to additional capital and construction financing to expand the number of lots the Company controls and to spread project risk.

Due to increased competition and in some markets a declining supply of favorably priced lots, the Company continues to consider opportunities to purchase unentitled land, re-entitle land, and acquire larger positions in land tracts than can practically be utilized by the Company’s homebuilding operations. Where possible and appropriate, the Company will seek outside capital and pursue such activities through joint ventures. In general, and particularly within CPH LLC, all such activities are closely related to CPH LLC’s homebuilding activities.

Product Design

The Company has received numerous industry design awards for its homes and developments. The Company has been featured in several nationally known periodicals, on network television and in various international publications. The Company’s homes are noted for their innovative design, attention to detail and quality construction. By emphasizing the right product designs, the Company has also been able to build brand loyalty while attempting to reduce warranty costs. In many markets, resales of the Company’s homes include the Company’s name as a sign of quality construction and design.

The Company contracts with a number of outside architects, designers, engineers, consultants and subcontractors. The Company believes that the use of third parties for the production of the final design, engineering and construction reduces its costs, increases design innovation and quality, and reduces risks. The Company has a large number of plans which it has used in various projects and can be re-used in new projects with appropriate modifications as necessary. The Company offers options and upgrades to provide its homebuilders with opportunities to augment their home to fit their lifestyle, the extent of which varies depending upon the project. However, structural and other changes which impact the build time of the home are typically limited.

The Company creates architectural variety within its projects by offering numerous models, floor plans, and exterior styles in an effort to enhance home values by creating diversified neighborhood looks within its projects. Generally, the Company selects the exterior finishes of its homes subject to necessary architectural approvals. The Company offers homebuyers the opportunity to engage interior design consultants to personalize the interior of their homes. Such services are offered at an additional cost to buyers through third parties contracted with by the Company, or the services may be provided through the homebuyer’s own consultants.

Development and Construction

The Company typically acts as the general contractor for the construction of its projects and the Managed Projects. Typically, all construction work for the Company is performed by subcontractors. The Company’s consultants and employees coordinate the construction of each project and the activities of subcontractors and suppliers, and subject their work to quality and cost controls and compliance with zoning and building codes. Subcontractors typically are retained on a phase-by-phase basis to complete construction at a fixed price. Agreements with the Company’s subcontractors are generally entered into after competitive bidding on a project-by-project basis. The Company has established relationships with a large number of subcontractors and is not dependent to any material degree upon the services of any one subcontractor. Decreasing availability of insurance coverage for subcontractors as well as, in California, the effects of increased Worker’s Compensation insurance rates may have an adverse effect in the availability of qualified subcontractors.

The Company typically develops its residential projects in several phases generally averaging approximately 10 to 15 homes per phase. The Company determines the number of homes to be built in the first phase and the appropriate price range. The first phase of home construction is typically relatively small to reduce risk while the Company measures consumer demand. Construction generally does not begin until some sales have

occurred, except for construction of model homes and in some cases the first few additional homes. Subsequent phases are generally not started until 50% to 75% of the homes in the previous phase have been sold. Sales prices in the second phase are then adjusted to reflect market demand as evidenced by sales experience in the first phase. With each subsequent phase, the Company continues to accumulate data which enables the Company to make decisions on the pricing, timing and size of subsequent phases. Although the time required to complete a phase varies from development to development depending on the above factors and the build time which in turn varies generally with the size and complexity of the home, the Company typically completes construction of a phase within one of its California developments in approximately six to ten months for larger homes and four to five months for smaller homes and within its Texas, Arizona and Colorado developments within three to five months. The Company is continuously developing and refining its production practices in order to reduce cycle time within the construction process.

Sales and Marketing

The Company typically builds, furnishes and landscapes model homes for each residential project and maintains on-site sales offices, which are usually open seven days a week once a project fully opens. The Company generally sells all of its homes through Company sales representatives who typically work from the sales offices located either at the model homes or at sales centers used in each subdivision. When appropriate, the Company also uses listing and cooperative brokers to sell its homes.

The Company generally opens an on-site sales office before the construction of the model homes is completed. This on-site sales office is utilized to commence the sales process to potential customers. The sales center is later generally moved to one of the model homes. Potential homebuyers may reserve a home by submitting a refundable deposit (a reservation deposit) usually ranging from $500 to $20,000 and executing a reservation document. The Company then conducts preliminary research concerning the credit status of the potential homebuyer in order to “pre-qualify” the homebuyer. Once the prospective homebuyer has been “pre-qualified” and there is a strong indication that the homebuyer will qualify for a mortgage (although final loan approval is still pending), the homebuyer must then convert the reservation deposit to an “earnest money deposit” and complete a purchase contract for the purchase of their home. The Company attempts to keep its contract cancellation rate low by attempting to pre-qualify prospective homebuyers and by allowing homebuyers to customize their homes at an early point in the purchase process. When home purchase contracts are canceled, the Company seeks to identify alternate homebuyers.

The Company makes extensive use of advertising and promotional resources, including newspaper and magazine advertisements, brochures, direct mail and the placement of strategically located signboards and occasionally places radio and television advertisements. Because the Company usually offers multiple projects within a market area, it is able to utilize regional advertising that highlights all of the Company’s projects within that same market area.

The Company utilizes the Internet through its website address, www.capitalpacifichomes.com, and through participation in a builder-sponsored web joint venture to augment its advertising and promotional activities.

The Company provides flooring and other amenities and upgrades to its homebuyers through various contracted facilities.

Backlog and Inventory

The Company typically pre-sells homes prior to and during construction through home purchase contracts requiring earnest money deposits or through reservation documents requiring reservation deposits. Generally, reservation deposits are refundable, but home purchase contracts are not cancelable unless the customer is unable to sell their existing home, qualify for financing or under certain other circumstances. A home sale is placed in backlog status upon execution of such a contract and receipt of an earnest money deposit and is removed when such contracts are canceled as described above or the home purchase escrow is closed.

The following table shows backlog in units and dollars at the end of each of the last three fiscal years for each of the Company’s residential operations, including unconsolidated joint ventures. Backlog and selling communities data does not include Managed Projects.

Mortgage Company

The Company offers mortgage broker services to certain of its California homebuyers through its unconsolidated joint venture Capital Pacific Home Loans, L.P. The Company also offers mortgage broker services to certain of its Texas homebuyers through its unconsolidated joint venture, Fairway Financial L.P. In addition, the Company has established certain relationships, including joint venture investments, with local mortgage broker operations in other operating regions.

Homeowner Warranty

The Company provides homeowners with a limited warranty on the terms of which the Company will warrant, for a limited period, items listed in the homeowner warranty manual. The warranty does not, however, include items that are covered by manufacturer’s warranties (such as appliances and air conditioning) or items that are not installed by employees or contractors of the Company (such as flooring installed by an outside contractor employed by the homeowner). The Company also provides certain homebuyers with policies issued by third-parties that extend protection beyond the Company’s warranty period. Statutory

requirements in the states in which the Company does business may grant to homebuyers rights in addition to those provided by the Company.

Competition

The homebuilding industry is highly competitive. In each of the markets in which it operates, the Company competes in terms of location, design, quality and price with numerous other residential builders, including large national and regional firms, many of which have greater financial resources than the Company. The Company has seen the financial resources of its competitors increase with the consolidation which the industry has experienced in the past few years. As the Company enters and until it develops a reputation in a new market area, the Company can expect to face even more significant competitive pressures. Competitive pressures may cause the Company to reduce effective sales prices or to write off due diligence costs for abandoned projects. In certain markets, the Company may from time to time engage in redesigns of product and/or make changes in existing model homes to make the Company’s product more competitive. Such redesigns and/or changes may cause the Company to incur additional expenses and/or to write-off previous investments in such design or model homes.

Regulation

The housing and land development industries are subject to increasing environmental, building, zoning and real estate sales regulations by various federal, state and local authorities. Such regulations affect home building by specifying, among other things, the type and quality of building materials that must be used, certain aspects of land use and building design, as well as the manner in which the Company conducts sales activities and otherwise deals with customers. Such regulations affect development activities by directly affecting the viability and timing of projects.

The Company must increasingly obtain the approval of numerous government authorities which regulate such matters as land use and level of density, the installation of utility services, such as water and waste disposal, and the dedication of acreage for open space, parks, schools and other community purposes. If such authorities determine that existing utility services will not adequately support proposed development (including possibly in ongoing projects), building moratoria may be imposed. As a result, the Company devotes an increasing amount of time to evaluating the impact of governmental restrictions imposed upon a new residential development. Furthermore, as local circumstances or applicable laws change, the Company may be required to obtain additional approvals or modifications of approvals previously obtained or even stop all work. Such increasing regulation has resulted in a significant increase in time (and related carrying costs) between the Company’s initial acquisition of land and the commencement and completion of its developments, particularly in California and to an increasing extent, all of the Company’s markets. In addition, the extent to which the Company participates in land development activities subjects it to greater exposure to regulatory risks.

Employees

As of April 30, 2003, the Company employed 226 persons full-time, compared to 246 persons at April 30, 2002. Of these, 26 were in executive positions, 56 were engaged in sales activities, 83 in project management activities and 61 in administrative and clerical activities. None of the Company’s employees is represented by a union and the Company considers its employee relationships to be good.

Raw Materials

Typically all the raw materials and most of the components used in the Company’s business are readily available in the United States. Most are standard items carried by major suppliers. However, a rapid increase in the number of homes started could cause shortages in the availability of such materials or in the price of services, thereby leading to delays in the delivery of homes under construction. In addition, increases in the price of lumber and other materials have a negative impact on margins. In order to maintain its quality standards while providing a product at good value, the Company has used and will under appropriate market

circumstances consider the further use of alternative materials, such as metal studs and framing in some of its projects.


Item 2.	*Properties*

The Company leases its office facilities.


Item 3.	*Legal Proceedings*

The Company is involved in routine claims and litigation arising in the ordinary course of its business. The legal responsibility and financial impact to the Company with respect to pending litigation cannot be presently ascertained. The previously disclosed suit styled in part as a shareholder derivative suit has been settled and the Company had no financial obligation under the settlement. A notice describing the proposed terms of the settlement and providing an opportunity to object was mailed to all shareholders in December 2002. After no objections were received a notice of the Court’s final approval of the settlement was mailed to all shareholders in February 2003.


Item 4.	*Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders*

None.

At February 28, 2003, minority interest represents capital attributable to a non- affiliated investor in a consolidated joint venture.

Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Forward-Looking Information is Subject to Risk and Uncertainty

Certain statements in the financial discussion and analysis by management contain “forward-looking” information (as defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) that involves risk and uncertainty, including projections and assumptions regarding the business environment in which the Company operates. Actual future results and trends may differ materially depending on a variety of factors, including the Company’s successful execution of internal performance strategies; changes in general national and regional economic conditions, such as levels of employment, consumer confidence and income, uncertainty arising from acts of war and terrorism and similar factors, availability to homebuilders of financing for acquisitions, development and construction, availability to homebuyers of permanent mortgages, interest rate levels and the demand for housing; supply levels of land, utilities and other services, labor and materials; difficulties in obtaining permits or approvals from governmental authorities; difficulties in marketing homes; regulatory changes and weather and other environmental uncertainties; competitive influences; and the outcome of pending and future legal claims and proceedings; and other influences.

Results of Operations — General

As is noted in Note 1 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements presented herein, the Company is reporting its results on a consolidated basis with the results of its wholly-owned subsidiaries including CPH LLC. References to the Company in this Item 7 are, unless the context indicates otherwise, also references to such subsidiaries. At the current time, all material financing transactions and arrangements are incurred either by CPH LLC or by project-specific entities, or in the case of Managed Projects, by the owner of such projects.

The following table illustrates the actual results of the Company’s operations, as well as the results including the Company’s unconsolidated joint ventures, for the past three fiscal years. The actual results have been adjusted to reflect the inclusion of the operating results of the Company’s unconsolidated joint ventures, including the portion attributable to the Company’s joint venture partners, in order to facilitate the discussion of the overall results in certain portions of the discussion below. In addition, for fiscal 2002 and fiscal 2003, the table presents results including the Managed Projects.

Cost of sales, as shown above, does not include the amount of previously capitalized interest costs which are included in interest expense. As a result, the gross margin also does not reflect the impact of previously capitalized interest costs included in interest expense. Industry practice among homebuilders varies, but Company management feels that gross margin, exclusive of interest expense, is the most relevant comparable measure given the Company’s historical capital structure.

During fiscal 2001, the amounts in the table above including joint ventures include $63 million of revenue representing 46 unit closings in joint ventures which became Managed Projects as a result of the Exchange Transaction.

In addition to the results shown above, the Company was responsible for the following activity in certain Managed Projects (including the Divested Joint Ventures) for the fiscal years 2002 and 2003:

	Fiscal 2002		Fiscal 2003

Number of Managed Projects		3		3

Revenues	$	45,239	$	29,120

During fiscal years 2002 and 2003, the Company was responsible for construction and marketing activity in the Managed Projects and the Company’s sole economic interest is through management arrangements.

Prior to February 23, 2001, CPH, Inc. had an interest in various joint ventures (the “Divested Projects”) with an unaffiliated entity, CHF. The Company’s interest in these projects was typically as managing member with a 0.7% capital interest and a contingent profits interest (after payment of debt, return of capital and a

preferred return) of approximately 30%. On that date and in a follow-on closing on May 31, 2001, the Company divested its interest in these assets in a transaction (the “Exchange Transaction”) in which CHF transferred to the Company its 32.07% interest in CPH LLC and in the Newport and Yucaipa homebuilding joint ventures in California in return for the Company’s capital and contingent profits interest in the Divested Projects and 1,235,000 newly issued shares of its non-voting Common Stock.


	*Fiscal 2003 (Year Ended February 28, 2003) Compared to Fiscal 2002 (Year Ended February 28, 2002)*

The Company reported net income of $9.7 million, or $0.64 per share, in fiscal 2003, as compared to net income of $6.3 million, or $0.43 per share, in fiscal 2002. Net income in fiscal 2003 included a cumulative effect of change in accounting principle which increased income by $5.4 million, or $0.36 per share. Excluding the effect of cumulative change in accounting principle, net income decreased from $6.3 million in fiscal 2002 to $4.2 million in fiscal 2003. The Company reported income from operations of $5.7 million in fiscal 2003, as compared to income from operations of $9.2 million in fiscal 2002.

On a consolidated basis, sales of homes and land decreased from $298.7 million in fiscal 2002 to $247.1 million in fiscal 2003. This decrease is due to a decrease in total home closings and average sales price per home, partially offset by increased lot closings between periods. Of these totals, sales of land and lots accounted for $15.4 million and $30.9 million in fiscal 2002 and fiscal 2003, respectively. On a consolidated basis, home and lot closings increased from 1,081 in fiscal 2002 to 1,390 in fiscal 2003. Sales of homes and land including unconsolidated joint ventures were $268.5 million for fiscal 2003 compared to $313.7 million for fiscal 2002. The decrease was due to a decrease in home closings from 839 for fiscal 2002 to 720 in fiscal 2003 as well as a decrease in average sales price. Total unit closings increased from 1,134 in fiscal 2002 to 1,467 in fiscal 2003, including 53 and 63 homes, respectively, closed in unconsolidated joint ventures. The increase in total unit closings was due primarily to a significant increase in total lot closings from 295 in fiscal 2002 to 747 in fiscal 2003. In addition, 14 lots were closed in unconsolidated joint ventures in fiscal 2003. In accordance with the Company’s strategy to lower its exposure to the higher end of the home sales market, the average home sales price decreased from $346,000 in fiscal 2002 to $330,000 in fiscal 2003.

The number of actively selling projects (not including the Managed Projects) has increased from 22 at February 28, 2002 to 27 at February 28, 2003, which affected both backlog and net new orders. The Company anticipates opening between 20 and 25 new communities over the next fiscal year in the following markets:


		Approximate
		Number of		Approximate
Market		New Projects		Number of Lots

California			6-8		329-705
Texas			5-7		868-1,302
Arizona			7-7		732-732
Colorado			2-3		279-355

	Total		20-25		2,208-3,094

Certain of these projects contain lots which may ultimately be sold to other builders. Taking into account the close out of between 12 and 15 currently selling projects, the Company expects a net increase in selling projects of between 8 and 10 projects during fiscal 2004.

The Company’s gross margin decreased from 24.2% in fiscal 2002 to 21.0% in fiscal 2003, due to a continued shift in the mix of closings to certain higher volume, lower-margin projects and the close out of certain less profitable projects in certain markets. The gross margin, including unconsolidated joint ventures, decreased from 23.8% in fiscal 2002 to 21.0% in fiscal 2003.

Selling, general and administrative expense of $34.5 million for fiscal 2003 decreased $1.8 million or 4.9% as compared to fiscal 2002 due primarily to a lower level of sales activity. As a percentage of revenue, selling, general and administrative expense increased from 12.2% in fiscal 2002 to 14.0% in fiscal 2003. The increased percentage was primarily due to lower volume of revenue in fiscal 2003, combined with an increase in certain

non-recurring expenses, including litigation expense, the write off of certain abandoned projects and charges related to a reduction in work force in the Company’s Texas division.

Income from unconsolidated joint ventures increased from $746,000 in fiscal 2002 to $1.8 million in fiscal 2003, due primarily to slightly higher volume and higher per unit profitability in the current joint ventures.

Interest and other income decreased slightly from $1.4 million in fiscal 2002 to $1.2 million in fiscal 2003 and consists primarily of the results of operations of the Company’s mortgage broker operations, as well as certain financing and other transactions.

Minority interest of $159,000 in fiscal 2002 primarily represents the share of income from CPH LLC attributable to CHF, until the Company acquired the remaining minority interest in CPH LLC on May 31, 2001.

Interest incurred was $10.3 million in fiscal 2003, as compared to $14.8 million in fiscal 2002, while interest expensed was $14.5 million in fiscal 2003 as compared to $28.9 million in fiscal 2002. Due both to selling out of older projects with higher capitalized interest and the Company’s substantially reduced borrowing costs, the Company expects interest incurred and interest expensed to continue to decline in future periods. Substantially all interest costs are initially capitalized to real estate projects and are recognized as interest expense as homes and land are sold.

The Company recorded a provision for income taxes of $1.5 million in fiscal 2003, as compared to $2.8 million in fiscal 2002. The effective tax rate was reduced from the statutory rate in both years due to the impact of amortizing negative goodwill. The Company expects its effective tax rate to approximate 40 percent in future years.


	*Fiscal 2002 (Year Ended February 28, 2002) Compared to Fiscal 2001 (Year Ended February 28, 2001)*

The Company reported income from operations of $9.2 million in fiscal 2002, as compared to income from operations of $18.1 million in fiscal 2001. The Company reported net income of $6.3 million, or $0.43 per share, in fiscal 2002, as compared to net income before extraordinary item of $10.7 million, or $0.77 per share, in fiscal 2001. The Company also experienced an extraordinary gain of $1.5 million, or $0.11 per share, in fiscal 2001, as a result of the retirement of debt at less than face value.

On a consolidated basis, sales of homes and land decreased from $363.7 million in fiscal 2001 to $298.7 million in fiscal 2002. This decrease is due to a decrease in total home and lot closings, partially offset by an increase in the Company’s average sales price per home between periods. On a consolidated basis, home and lot closings decreased from 2,153 in fiscal 2001 to 1,081 in fiscal 2002.

Sales of homes and land including unconsolidated joint ventures were $313.7 million for fiscal 2002 compared to $426.4 million for fiscal 2001. Of these totals, sales of land and lots accounted for $15.4 million and $31.4 million in fiscal 2002 and fiscal 2001, respectively. The decrease was due to a decrease in total unit closings from 2,199 for fiscal 2001 to 1,134 in fiscal 2002 partially offset by an increase in average sales price. Home closings declined from 1,209 in fiscal 2001 to 839 in fiscal 2002, including 46 and 53 homes, respectively, closed in unconsolidated joint ventures. The average home sales price increased from $315,000 in fiscal 2001 to $346,000 in fiscal 2002.

The decrease in total unit closings was due primarily to a reduction in actively selling projects between periods, the Company’s exit from the Nevada market and an unusual level of lot closings in fiscal 2001. The increase in average sales price is due to the closing of a higher number of units in the higher-priced California market in fiscal 2002. The decrease in the Company’s backlog from 512 units at February 28, 2001 to 194 units at February 28, 2002 is also primarily due to a decrease in selling projects in certain of the Company’s markets and to a lesser extent, the reduction in backlog units in Nevada in connection with the Company’s exit from that market. The number of actively selling projects (not including the Managed Projects) decreased from 26 at February 28, 2001 to 22 at February 28, 2002, which affected both backlog and net new orders.

The Company’s gross margin decreased from 25.1% in fiscal 2001 to 24.2% in fiscal 2002, due to a change in the mix of closings to certain higher volume, lower-margin projects and the close out of certain less

profitable projects. The gross margin, including unconsolidated joint ventures, decreased from 25.0% in fiscal 2001 to 23.8% in fiscal 2002.

Selling, general and administrative expense of $36.3 million for fiscal 2002 decreased $2.3 million or 6.0% as compared to fiscal 2001 due primarily to a lower level of sales activity. As a percentage of revenue, selling, general and administrative expense increased from 10.6% in fiscal 2001 to 12.2% in fiscal 2002. The increased percentage was primarily due to lower volume of revenue in fiscal 2002.

Income from unconsolidated joint ventures increased from a loss of $874,000 in fiscal 2001 to income of $746,000 in fiscal 2002, due to the establishment of certain reserves in connection with the wind down in fiscal 2001 of some of the older joint ventures, and the benefit of certain newer joint ventures generating profits in fiscal 2002.

Interest and other income decreased from $1.9 million in fiscal 2001 to $1.4 million in fiscal 2002 and consists primarily of the results of operations of the Company’s mortgage broker operations, as well as certain financing and other transactions.

Minority interest of $5.6 million in fiscal 2001 and $159,000 in fiscal 2002 primarily represents the share of income from CPH LLC and CPH Newport Coast, LLC attributable to CHF, until the Company acquired the remaining minority interest in CPH LLC on May 31, 2001.

Interest incurred was $14.8 million in fiscal 2002, as compared to $25.7 million in fiscal 2001, while interest expensed was $28.9 million in fiscal 2002 as compared to $35.7 million in fiscal 2001. Due both to selling out of older projects with higher capitalized interest and the Company’s substantially reduced borrowing costs, the Company expects interest incurred and interest expensed to continue to drop in future periods. Substantially all interest costs are initially capitalized to real estate projects and are recognized as interest expense as homes and land are sold.

The Company recorded a provision for income taxes of $2.8 million in fiscal 2002, as compared to $1.8 million in fiscal 2001. The effective tax rate was reduced from the statutory rate in fiscal 2002 due to the impact of amortizing negative goodwill, and in fiscal 2001 primarily through the reversal of the Company’s previously established valuation allowance. The valuation allowance was reduced to zero at February 28, 2001.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company’s principal cash requirements are for the acquisition, development, construction, marketing and overhead of its projects. When building inventory, the Company uses substantial amounts of cash that are generally obtained from borrowings, available cash flow from operations and partners’ contributions to joint ventures.

At the current time, all material financing transactions and arrangements are incurred either by CPH LLC or by certain project-specific entities. During fiscal 2003, CPH LLC renewed and extended the maturity of its senior unsecured revolving credit facility (“the Senior Facility”) with several participant banks. The facility was increased from $130 million to $140 million subsequent to the fiscal 2003 year end. The facility currently has a three year revolving term through October 2005. Proceeds from this facility were used to pay down CPH LLC’s existing facilities and retire the remaining Senior Notes during fiscal 2002, as discussed below. In addition, in fiscal 2003, the Company entered into a Senior Subordinated Note Agreement in the initial amount of $20 million, with a maturity date in October 2007.

As of February 28, 2003, the Company has in place credit facilities, including the Senior Facility, totaling $208 million (the “Facilities”) with various bank lenders (the “Banks”), of which approximately $120 million was outstanding. The Facilities other than the Senior Facility are secured by liens on various completed or under construction homes and lots held by certain wholly-owned subsidiaries of the Company. Pursuant to the Facilities, the Company and the wholly-owned subsidiaries are subject to certain covenants, which require, among other things, the maintenance of a consolidated liabilities to net worth ratio, minimum liquidity, minimum net worth and loss limitations, all as defined in the documents that evidence the Facilities. At February 28, 2003, the Company and the wholly-owned subsidiaries were in compliance with these covenants.

The Facilities also define certain events that constitute events of default. As of February 28, 2003, no such event had occurred. Commitment fees are payable annually on some of the Facilities.

Homebuilding activity is being financed out of CPH LLC cash, bank financing, and the existing joint ventures, including joint ventures with institutional investors. Development work undertaken in certain of the Company’s joint ventures is financed through various non-recourse lending arrangements. Additional lot development activity is enhanced through various arrangements outside the Senior Facility. The Company anticipates that it will continue to utilize both third party financing and joint ventures to cover financing needs in excess of internally generated cash flow.

Management expects that cash flow generated from operations and from bank financing will be sufficient to cover the debt service and to fund CPH LLC’s current development and homebuilding activities for the reasonably foreseeable future, and expects that capital commitments from its joint venture partners and other bank facilities will provide sufficient financing for the operation of its joint ventures.

Interest Rates and Inflation

Housing demand, in general, is adversely affected by increases in interest costs, as well as materials and other costs, which cause increases in home sale prices. Interest rates, the length of time that land remains in inventory and the proportion of inventory that is financed affect the Company’s interest costs. If the Company is unable to duplicate its past ability to raise sales prices enough to compensate for higher costs, or if mortgage interest rates increase significantly, affecting prospective buyers’ ability to adequately finance a home purchase, the Company’s homebuilding revenues, gross margins and net income would be adversely affected. Increases in sales prices, whether the result of inflation or demand, may affect the ability of prospective buyers to afford a new home.

The long-term impact of inflation on the Company is manifested in increased land prices, land development, construction and overhead costs balanced by increased sales prices. The Company generally contracts for land significantly before development and sales efforts begin and, accordingly, to the extent land acquisition costs are fixed, increases or decreases in the sales prices of homes, land and other real estate properties may affect the Company’s profits. Since the sales prices of homes are fixed at the time of sale and the Company generally sells its homes prior to commencement of construction, any inflation of construction costs in excess of those anticipated may result in lower gross margins. The Company generally attempts to minimize that effect by entering into fixed-price contracts with its subcontractors and material suppliers for specified periods of time, which generally do not exceed one year.

Critical Accounting Policies

The Company’s financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and costs and expenses during the reporting period. Management evaluates its estimates and judgments, including those which offset its most critical accounting policies on an ongoing basis. Management bases its estimates and judgments on historical experience and on various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, within the framework of current accounting literature. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. Management believes that the following accounting policies are among the most important to accurately report the Company’s financial condition and results of operations and require among the most subjective or complicated judgments, which are subject to uncertainty and the potential for change in subsequent accounting periods.


	*Revenue Recognition, Real Estate Projects and Cost of Sales*

A sale is recorded and profit is recognized when a sale is consummated, the buyer’s initial and continuing investments are adequate, any receivables are not subject to future subordination, and the usual risks and rewards of ownership have been transferred to the buyer in accordance with the provisions of Statement of

Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 66, “Accounting for Sales of Real Estate.” When it is determined that the earnings process is not complete, profit is deferred for recognition in future periods. Examples of such circumstances would be if the Company sells and leases back a model home, or if the Company takes a buyer’s home in trade. The profit recorded by the Company is based on the calculation of cost of sales which is dependent on the Company’s allocation of costs, including a provision for estimated future warranty costs, as discussed below.

Real estate projects are carried at cost, net of impairment losses, if any. Real estate projects consist primarily of raw land, lots under development, houses under construction and completed houses. All direct and indirect land costs, offsite and onsite improvements and applicable interest and other carrying charges are capitalized to real estate projects during periods when the project is under development. Land, offsite costs and all other common costs, including projected indirect construction costs and carrying costs, are typically allocated to lots benefited within a project based upon relative sales values before construction. Onsite direct construction costs are allocated to the individual homes based upon the relative sales value of the homes. The estimation process involved in determining relative sales values is inherently uncertain because it involves estimates of current market values for land parcels before construction as well as future sales values of individual homes. The Company’s estimates of future sales values are supported by the Company’s budgeting process. Any estimate of future sales values is inherently uncertain because it requires estimates of current market conditions as well as future market events and conditions. The impact of applying the relative sales value method can be significant in the case where certain lots in a project are expected to command high premiums for views, lot size or other desirable attributes, in comparison with other lots within the same project. Additionally, in determining the allocation of costs to a particular land parcel or individual home, the Company relies on project budgets that are based on a variety of assumptions, including assumptions about construction schedules and future costs to be incurred. It is possible that actual results could differ from budgeted amounts for various reasons, including construction delays, increases in costs which have not yet been committed, or unforeseen issues encountered during construction that fall outside the scope of contracts obtained. While the actual results for a particular construction project are accurately reported over time, a variance between the budget and actual costs could result in the understatement or overstatement of costs and a related impact on gross margins in a specific reporting period. To reduce the potential for such distortion, the Company has set forth procedures which have been applied by the Company on a consistent basis, including assessing and revising project budgets on a monthly basis, obtaining, where possible, commitments from subcontractors and vendors for future costs to be incurred, reviewing the adequacy of warranty accruals and historical warranty claims experience, and utilizing the most recent information available to estimate costs. Management believes that the Company’s policies provide for reasonably dependable estimates to be used in the calculation and reporting of costs. The Company relieves its accumulated real estate projects through cost of sales and interest expense for the cost of homes sold.


	*Impairment of Real Estate Projects*

The Company follows SFAS 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets.” SFAS 144 requires long-lived assets, including inventories, that are expected to be held and used in operations to be carried at the lower of cost or, if impaired, the fair value of the asset. SFAS 144 requires that companies evaluate long-lived assets for impairment based on undiscounted future cash flows of the assets at the lowest level for which there is identifiable cash flows. This evaluation requires estimates of future revenues, costs and the remaining time to develop the project and requires a substantial degree of judgment by management. Actual revenues, costs and time to complete development could vary from estimates which could affect the Company’s future results of operations. Management reviews each real estate project on a community-by-community basis to determine whether or not carrying amounts have been impaired. The adoption of SFAS 144 did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.


	*Joint Ventures*

The Company has historically entered into joint ventures with financial partners in which the joint venture partner typically provides the majority of the capital and/or financing required for the project. The

Company has utilized joint ventures in order to increase the ability of the Company to control real property and to diversify the Company’s sources of financing. The Company expects to continue to utilize joint ventures in the future on a selective basis, taking into account other available sources of financing, project risk and the potential return to the Company.

At the current time, the Company’s typical investment in most of its joint ventures consists of a percentage of the total capital required (typically ten percent or less) and after substantial completion of the project and after payment of all project expenses, return of invested capital together with a preferred return, the Company participates in the profits of the project. The Company typically does not provide any financial or other credit enhancements in connection with these joint venture investments but sometimes provides operational agreements that it will complete construction. The Company accounts for these joint ventures on the equity method when the Company’s ownership is less than 50 percent, and on a consolidated basis when the Company’s ownership exceeds 50 percent and when the Company exercises control.

The adoption of Financial Interpretation (“FIN”) No. 46, which is discussed below, may in the future affect the Company’s accounting for these joint ventures.


	*Management Fees*

In connection with the joint ventures discussed above, the Company typically charges a management fee to the joint venture, representing reimbursement for overhead expenditures made by the Company on behalf of the joint venture project. These fees are typically either a fixed amount or a variable amount based on a percentage of actual or projected revenue within the joint venture and are collected over the life of the project. This reimbursement is included in the Company’s income statement as an offset to selling, general and administrative expense and is disclosed in Note 12 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. For unconsolidated joint ventures and Managed Projects, such amounts are recognized currently, and for consolidated joint ventures and subsidiaries, a portion of the fee related to homes which have not closed is deferred.


	*Related Party Transactions*

The Company has in place formal systems to identify, track and report related party transactions. The Company feels that all significant related party transactions have been properly accounted for and adequately disclosed. See Item 13 and Note 12 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for a description of the Company’s transactions with related parties.

New Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued SFAS 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets.” SFAS 142 addresses financial accounting and reporting for acquired goodwill and other intangible assets and supersedes Accounting Principles Board (“APB”) Opinion No. 17, “Intangible Assets.” This pronouncement addresses, among other things, how goodwill and other intangible assets should be accounted for after they have been initially recognized in the financial statements. Goodwill will no longer be amortized but will be assessed at least annually for impairment using a fair value methodology. The Company will adopt this statement for all goodwill and other intangible assets acquired after June 30, 2001 and for all existing goodwill and other intangible assets beginning March 1, 2002. Upon adoption of this standard on March 1, 2002, the Company was required to accrete the remaining balance of negative goodwill through a cumulative effect of change in accounting principle, which increased net income in fiscal 2003 by $5.4 million, or $0.36 per diluted share. Other than the accretion of the remaining negative goodwill, the adoption of SFAS 142 did not have a significant effect on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

In January 2003, the FASB issued FIN 46, which addresses financial reporting requirements for variable interest entities. In general, a variable interest entity is a corporation, partnership, trust, or any other legal structure used for business purposes that either (1) does not have equity investors with voting rights; or (2) has equity investors that do not provide sufficient financial resources for the entity to support its activities.

FIN 46 requires a variable interest entity to be consolidated by a company if that company is subject to a majority of the risk of loss from the variable interest entity’s activities or entitled to receive a majority of the entity’s residual returns or both. FIN 46 also requires disclosures about variable interest entities that the company is not required to consolidate but in which it has a significant variable interest. The consolidation requirements of FIN 46 apply immediately to variable interest entities created after January 31, 2003. The consolidation requirements apply to entities existing at January 31, 2003 in the first fiscal year or interim period beginning after June 15, 2003. Certain of the disclosure requirements apply in all financial statements issued after January 31, 2003, regardless of when the variable interest entity was established. The Company is currently evaluating its existing arrangements and anticipates that the adoption of FIN 46 will not have a significant effect on its financial position or results of operations.

In December 2002, the FASB issued SFAS 148, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation — Transition and Disclosure.” SFAS 148 amends SFAS 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation,” to provide three alternative methods of transition to SFAS 123’s fair value method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation for companies that elect to adopt the provisions of SFAS 123. Transition to SFAS 123 is not required by SFAS 148. The Company has elected to use the intrinsic value method of accounting for stock compensation in accordance with APB 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees” and related interpretations.

SFAS 148 also amends the disclosure provisions of SFAS 123 and APB 28, “Interim Financial Reporting,” to require disclosure in the summary of significant accounting policies of the effects of an entity’s accounting policy with respect to stock based compensation on reported net income and earnings per share in annual and interim financial statements. The disclosure provisions of SFAS 148 are required to be adopted by all companies with stock-based employee compensation, regardless of whether they account for that compensation using the fair value method of SFAS 123 or the intrinsic value method of APB 25. The disclosure provisions of SFAS 148, effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2002, have been adopted by the Company, with the appropriate disclosures in the notes to the consolidated financial statements included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

In November 2002, the FASB issued FIN 45, which elaborates on the existing disclosure requirements for most guarantees, including loan guarantees. It also clarifies that at the time a company issues a guarantee, the company must recognize an initial liability for the fair value, or market value, of the obligations it assumes under that guarantee and must disclose that information in its interim and annual financial statements. FIN 45 does not apply to certain guarantee contracts, such as those issued by insurance companies or for a lessee’s residual value guarantee embedded in a capital lease. The provisions related to recognizing a liability at inception of the guarantee for the fair value of the guarantor’s obligations would not apply to product warranties or to guarantees accounted for as derivatives. The initial recognition and initial measurement provisions apply on a prospective basis to guarantees issued or modified after December 31, 2002, regardless of the guarantor’s fiscal year-end. The disclosure requirements in FIN 45 are effective for financial statements of interim or annual periods ending after December 15, 2002. The adoption of FIN 45 did not have a significant effect on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

In April 2002, the FASB issued SFAS 145, “Rescission of SFAS No. 4, 44, 64 and Amendment of SFAS No. 13 and Technical Corrections.” SFAS 145 prevents treatment as extraordinary any gains or losses recognized on extinguishment of debt not meeting the criteria of APB 30. SFAS 145 is effective for fiscal years beginning after May 15, 2002. The adoption of SFAS 145 will affect the classification of such amounts in the financial statements of subsequent periods and comparative prior periods.

Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

The Company is exposed to market risks related to fluctuations in interest rates on its debt. Under the Senior Facility and the Senior Subordinated Credit Agreement, the Company has utilized interest rate swaps in order to fix the interest rate on $95 million of its variable rate debt. The Company has not used forward or option contracts on foreign currencies or commodities, or other types of derivative financial instruments. The purpose of the following analysis is to provide a framework to understand the Company’s sensitivity to

hypothetical changes in interest rates as of February 28, 2003. Many of the statements contained in this section are forward looking and should be read in conjunction with the Company’s disclosures under the heading “Forward-Looking Statements.”

The Company uses debt financing primarily for the purpose of acquiring and developing land and constructing and selling homes. Historically, the Company has made short-term borrowings under its revolving credit facilities to fund these expenditures. In addition, the Company has previously issued $100 million in fixed rate 12 3/4% Senior Notes to provide longer-term financing. During fiscal 2002, the Company repurchased the remaining balance of Senior Notes.

For fixed rate debt, changes in interest rates generally affect the fair market value of the debt instrument, but not the Company’s earnings or cash flows. Conversely, for variable rate debt, changes in interest rates generally do not impact fair market value of the debt instrument, but do affect the Company’s future earnings and cash flows. The Company does not have an obligation to prepay fixed rate debt prior to maturity, and as a result, interest rate risk and changes in fair market value should not have a significant impact on such debt until the Company would be required to refinance such debt. Based on the amount of variable rate debt outstanding at February 28, 2003, and holding the variable rate debt balance constant, each one-percentage point increase in interest rates would result in an increase in interest incurred for the coming year of approximately $300,000, including the impact of the interest rate swaps discussed above.

The table below details the principal amount and the average interest rates for debt for each category based upon the expected maturity dates. The carrying value of the Company’s variable rate debt approximates fair value due to the frequency of repricing of this debt. The Company’s fixed rate debt consists of various purchase money trust deed notes and other notes.

	Average interest rate		4.58	%		5.04	%		3.87	%		5.04	%		6.18	%		4.32	%

The Company does not believe that the future market rate risks related to the above securities will have a material adverse impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or liquidity.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


1.	Company Organization, Operations and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies


	*Company Organization and Operations*

Capital Pacific Holdings, Inc. (“CPH, Inc.”), together with its subsidiaries, (the “Company”) conducts business principally under the name Capital Pacific Homes.

In fiscal year 1998, CPH, Inc. consummated an equity and restructuring transaction whereby CPH, Inc. and certain of its subsidiaries transferred to a newly formed entity, Capital Pacific Holdings, LLC (“CPH LLC”), substantially all of their respective assets and CPH LLC assumed all the liabilities of CPH, Inc. and its subsidiaries. An unaffiliated investment company, California Housing Finance, L.P. (“CHF”) then acquired a 32.07% minority interest in CPH LLC as a result of a cash investment in CPH LLC. From fiscal 1998 through fiscal 2001, CPH, Inc. expanded its operating strategy to encompass the acquisition and development of commercial and mixed-use projects, as well as ownership of existing commercial properties, primarily through non-majority investments in limited liability companies, with 99.25% of the capital for these projects being provided by CHF. CPH, Inc. and CHF had contingent profits interests (after repayment of debt, the costs of the project, invested capital and preferred return, the latter typically 12%) of approximately 30% to CPH, Inc. and 70% to CHF.

Effective February 23, 2001, CPH, Inc. and CHF consummated the first portion of an interest exchange transaction (the “Exchange Transaction”), whereby CPH, Inc. exchanged its 0.75% capital interests and contingent profit interest in the majority of the joint ventures capitalized by CHF, including certain entities which were previously consolidated (the “Divested Joint Ventures”), for approximately 78% of CHF’s interest in CPH LLC and all of CHF’s interests in certain residential joint ventures. At February 28, 2001 and during the three month period ended May 31, 2001, CPH, Inc. had a 93% interest in CPH LLC (as compared to 67.03% formerly) and CHF held a 7% minority interest (as compared to 32.07% formerly). As a result of the first portion of the Exchange Transaction, CPH Inc.’s interest in the total capital of CPH LLC increased by 37% or $27.2 million. Both CPH, Inc. and CHF had an option to convert CHF’s remaining 7% interest in CPH LLC into 1,235,000 shares of non-voting Common Stock of CPH, Inc. at the equivalent of approximately $6.40 per share. This option was exercised by CPH, Inc. on May 31, 2001, and as a result of this second portion of the Exchange Transaction, CPH, Inc. owned 100% of CPH LLC, and had obtained an additional increment of CPH LLC’s total capital of $7.9 million. In addition, Capital Pacific Homes, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of CPH, Inc., has entered into construction, management and marketing agreements relating to certain of the Divested Joint Ventures with residential components, (the “Managed Projects”), whereby the Company is compensated for performing such services through a management fee arrangement, including reimbursement of all project costs. As a result of the Exchange Transaction, the Company has no further exposure to the economic or entitlement risks associated with the Divested Joint Ventures or the Managed Projects, including no obligation to provide any capital.

The Exchange Transaction was accounted for as the simultaneous acquisition of CHF’s minority interest in CPH LLC and certain other residential joint ventures and the disposition of the Company’s interest in the Divested Joint Ventures. As a result, no gain was initially recognized, the remaining balance of the Company’s property and equipment was adjusted to zero at February 28, 2001, and again at May 31, 2001, a deferred gain of approximately $3.5 million was recorded on the disposition of one of the Divested Joint Ventures due to continuing involvement in the form of both consulting and lease arrangements between the Company and this Divested Joint Venture, and the balance of the transaction was recorded as negative goodwill in the amount of $6.8 million. Negative goodwill represents the portion of the positive difference between the Company’s basis in the assets acquired in the Exchange Transaction as compared to the assets which were divested which was not otherwise accounted for as an adjustment to property and equipment or as a deferred gain. Both negative goodwill and the deferred gain were being accreted over five years, which accretion was included as a reduction in selling, general and administrative expenses. As further discussed below, due to a recently promulgated change in accounting principles, the remaining $5.4 million in unaccreted negative goodwill as of

CAPITAL PACIFIC HOLDINGS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)

February 28, 2002 increased net income in fiscal 2003 through a cumulative effect of change in accounting principle. The remaining deferred gain was being accreted over the four years of its remaining expected life. However, in Fiscal 2003, the Company terminated a portion of its lease from the Divested Joint Venture noted above and did not renew a consulting agreement covering all of the Divested Joint Ventures, thus eliminating its continuing involvement on a portion of the deferred gain resulting in an acceleration of the accretion of the deferred gain in the amount of $1.3 million.

Assets under management, including assets owned by unconsolidated joint ventures and Managed Projects, totaled $513 million at February 28, 2003 in 65 residential projects. At February 28, 2003, CPH LLC, which is now 100% owned by the Company, had $238 million in assets and a net worth of $107 million. The Company and its subsidiaries perform their respective management functions for CPH LLC and the Managed Projects pursuant to management agreements, which include provisions for the reimbursement of Company and subsidiary costs and a management fee. CPH LLC, the Managed Projects and certain other project-specific entities indemnify CPH, Inc. and its subsidiaries against liabilities arising from the projects owned by such entities. The Company maintains certain licenses and other assets as is necessary to fulfill its obligations as managing member and under management agreements.

References to the Company are, unless the context indicates otherwise, also references to CPH LLC and the project-specific entities in which the Company has an equity ownership interest. At the current time, all material financing transactions and arrangements are incurred either by CPH LLC or by the project-specific entities.

The Company is a regional builder and developer with operations throughout selected metropolitan areas of California, Texas, Arizona and Colorado. The Company’s principal business activities are to build and sell single-family homes. The Company’s single-family homes are targeted to entry-level, move-up and luxury buyers.

Approximately 55, 21, 11 and 13 percent of the Company’s total revenues derived from the sale of homes and lots were in California, Texas, Arizona and Colorado, respectively, for the year ended February 28, 2003.

The Company’s business, and the markets which it serves in California, Texas, Arizona and Colorado are affected by local, national and world economic conditions and events, in particular by the level of mortgage interest rates, consumer confidence and real estate prices. The Company cannot predict whether mortgage interest rates will be at levels attractive to prospective homebuyers. If interest rates increase, in particular mortgage interest rates, the Company’s operating results could be adversely impacted.


	*Accounting Estimates*

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingencies at the dates of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reported periods. Significant estimates include projected revenues and costs of projects, which impact the allocation of costs to homes sold. Actual results could differ from estimated amounts.


	*Principles of Consolidation and Minority Interest in Joint Ventures*

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and wholly-owned subsidiaries and certain majority-owned joint ventures, as well as the accounts of CPH LLC. All other investments (See Note 4) are accounted for under the equity method. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

CAPITAL PACIFIC HOLDINGS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)


	*Property and Equipment*

Property and equipment are recorded at cost and are depreciated over their estimated useful lives of three to thirty years using the straight-line method. During fiscal 2001, a building with a book value of $2,460,000 was sold, resulting in a gain of $1,040,000. In addition, a building with a book value of $3,038,000 was exchanged as part of the Exchange Transaction. As a result of the Exchange Transaction, the remaining balance of $2,994,000 in property and equipment was adjusted to zero at February 28, 2001 and again at May 31, 2001 in the amount $360,000. During fiscal 2003, the Company acquired an airplane for a purchase price of $6,337,000, which is being depreciated over its estimated useful life of 15 years.

Real Estate Projects

All direct and indirect land costs, offsite and onsite improvements and applicable interest and carrying charges are capitalized to real estate projects under development. Capitalized costs are expensed as real estate is sold; direct marketing costs are expensed in the period incurred. Land and land development costs are accumulated by project and are allocated to individual phases using the relative sales value method.

The Company follows Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets.” SFAS 144 requires long-lived assets, including inventories, that are expected to be held and used in operations to be carried at the lower of cost or, if impaired, the fair value of the asset. SFAS 144 requires that companies evaluate long-lived assets for impairment based on undiscounted future cash flows of the assets at the lowest level for which there is identifiable cash flows. This evaluation requires estimates of future revenues, costs and the remaining time to develop the project and requires a substantial degree of judgment by management. Actual revenues, costs and time to complete development could vary from estimates which could affect the Company’s future results of operations. Management reviews each real estate project on a community-by-community basis to determine whether or not carrying amounts have been impaired. The adoption of SFAS 144 did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.


	*Negative Goodwill*

Negative goodwill recorded as a result of the Exchange Transaction was being accreted over five years. During fiscal 2002, the Company recorded accretion of $1.3 million which was included as a reduction in selling, general and administrative expenses. Due to a recently promulgated change in accounting principles, the accretion of the remaining balance of negative goodwill of $5.4 million at February 28, 2002, increased income in fiscal 2003 by a corresponding amount through a cumulative effect of change in accounting principle.


	*Revenue Recognition*

The Company’s revenue recognition policy for the sales of homes and land follows the provisions of SFAS 66, “Accounting for Sales of Real Estate,” which specify minimum down payment requirements, financing terms and certain other requirements for sales of real estate.

Income from sales of homes and land is recognized when title has passed, the buyer has met minimum down payment requirements and the terms of any notes received by the Company satisfy continuing investment requirements. At the time of sale, accumulated costs are relieved from real estate projects and charged to cost of sales and interest expense on a relative sales value basis.


	*Warranty Costs*

Estimated future warranty costs are accrued and charged to cost of sales for each home concurrent with the recognition of revenue upon satisfaction of the requirements of SFAS 66. Amounts accrued are based

CAPITAL PACIFIC HOLDINGS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)

upon historical experience rates. Accrued warranty reserve is included in accounts payable and accrued liabilities in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. Changes in the Company’s warranty reserve are detailed in the table set forth below:



	February 28,

	2002			2003

Accrued warranty reserve, beginning of the year		1,030,000			1,923,000
Warranty costs accrued during the year		2,666,000			956,000
Warranty costs paid during the year		(1,773,000	)		(1,637,000	)

Accrued warranty reserve, end of the year		1,923,000			1,242,000


	*Income Taxes*

The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with SFAS 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes,” which requires the liability method of accounting for income taxes.


	*Statements of Cash Flows*

For purposes of the consolidated statements of cash flows, short-term investments which have a maturity of 90 days or less from the date of purchase are considered cash equivalents.


	*Stock Options*

The Company accounts for equity-based compensation under SFAS 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation.” Under SFAS 123, companies have the option to implement a fair value-based accounting method or continue to account for employee stock options and stock purchase plans using the intrinsic value based method of accounting as prescribed by Accounting Principles Board (“APB”) Opinion No. 25 “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees.” Entities electing to remain under APB 25 must make pro forma disclosures of net income or loss and earnings per share as if the fair value based method of accounting defined in SFAS 123 had been applied. The Company has adopted the disclosure requirements of SFAS 123 and will continue accounting for stock options under APB 25.

The following information is provided pursuant to the requirements of SFAS No. 123. The fair value of each option granted during the year ended February 28, 2001, is estimated using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model on the date of grant using the following weighted average assumptions:


	Fiscal 2001

Dividend yield		0	%
Expected volatility		56.5	%
Risk-free interest rate		6.12	%
Expected life		5 years

During the years ended February 28, 2001, 2002 and 2003, no compensation expense was recognized related to the stock options granted, however, had compensation expense been determined consistent with SFAS 123 for the Company’s stock option grants for its stock-based compensation plan, the Company’s net

The effects of applying SFAS 123 in this pro forma disclosure are not indicative of future amounts.


	*Earnings Per Common Share*

The Company follows the provisions of SFAS 128, “Earnings Per Share.” This statement requires the presentation of both basic and diluted earnings per common share for financial statement purposes. Basic earnings per common share is computed by dividing income available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per common share includes the effect of the potential shares outstanding, including dilutive securities using the treasury stock method. The table below reconciles the components of the basic earnings per common share calculation to diluted earnings per common share (in thousands, except per share data):

	*Comprehensive Income*

The Company follows the provisions of SFAS 130, “Reporting Comprehensive Income.” SFAS 130 requires that the Company (a) classify items of other comprehensive income by their nature in a financial statement and (b) display the accumulated balance of other comprehensive income separately from retained earnings and additional paid-in capital in the equity section of the balance sheet (See Note 11).


	*Segment Reporting*

Effective February 28, 1999, the Company adopted SFAS 131, “Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information.” Under the provisions of SFAS 131, the Company’s operations are conducted and aggregated primarily under one segment, homebuilding, at this time.

CAPITAL PACIFIC HOLDINGS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)


	*New Accounting Pronouncements*

In June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued SFAS 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets”. SFAS 142 addresses financial accounting and reporting for acquired goodwill and other intangible assets and supersedes APB 17, “Intangible Assets.” This pronouncement addresses, among other things, how goodwill and other intangible assets should be accounted for after they have been initially recognized in the financial statements. Goodwill will no longer be amortized but will be assessed at least annually for impairment using a fair value methodology. The Company will adopt this statement for all goodwill and other intangible assets acquired after June 30, 2001 and did adopt it for all existing goodwill and other intangible assets beginning March 1, 2002. Upon adoption of this standard on March 1, 2002 the Company was required to accrete the remaining balance of negative goodwill through a cumulative effect of change in accounting principle, which increased net income in fiscal 2003 by $5.4 million, or $0.36 per diluted share. Had the non-amortization provisions of SFAS 142 been adopted as of March 1, 2000, net income would have remained the same for fiscal 2001 and would have been $5.0 million or $0.34 per diluted share for fiscal 2002. Other than the accretion of the remaining negative goodwill, the adoption of SFAS 142 did not have a significant effect on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

In January 2003, the FASB issued Financial Interpretation (“FIN”) No. 46, which addresses financial reporting requirements for variable interest entities. In general, a variable interest entity is a corporation, partnership, trust, or any other legal structure used for business purposes that either (1) does not have equity investors with voting rights; or (2) has equity investors that do not provide sufficient financial resources for the entity to support its activities. FIN 46 requires a variable interest entity to be consolidated by a company if that company is subject to a majority of the risk of loss from the variable interest entity’s activities or entitled to receive a majority of the entity’s residual returns or both. FIN 46 also requires disclosures about variable interest entities that the company is not required to consolidate but in which it has a significant variable interest. The consolidation requirements of FIN 46 apply immediately to variable interest entities created after January 31, 2003. The consolidation requirements apply to entities existing at January 31, 2003 in the first fiscal year or interim period beginning after June 15, 2003. Certain of the disclosure requirements apply in all financial statements issued after January 31, 2003, regardless of when the variable interest entity was established. The Company is currently evaluating its existing arrangements and anticipates that the adoption of FIN 46 will not have a significant effect on its financial position or results of operations.

In December 2002, the FASB issued SFAS 148, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation -Transition and Disclosure.” SFAS 148 amends SFAS 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation,” to provide three alternative methods of transition to SFAS 123’s fair value method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation for companies that elect to adopt the provisions of SFAS 123. Transition to SFAS 123 is not required by SFAS 148. The Company has elected to use the intrinsic value method of accounting for stock compensation in accordance with APB 25 and related interpretations.

SFAS 148 also amends the disclosure provisions of SFAS 123 and APB 28, “Interim Financial Reporting,” to require disclosure in the summary of significant accounting policies of the effects of an entity’s accounting policy with respect to stock-based compensation or reported net income and earnings per share in annual and interim financial statements. The disclosure provisions of SFAS 148 are required to be adopted by all companies with stock-based employee compensation, regardless of whether they account for that compensation using the fair value method of SFAS 123 or the intrinsic value method of APB 25. The disclosure provisions of SFAS 148, effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2002, have been adopted by the Company, with the appropriate disclosures under “Stock Based Compensation,” above.

does not apply to certain guarantee contracts, such as those issued by insurance companies or for a lessee’s residual value guarantee embedded in a capital lease. The provisions related to recognizing a liability at inception of the guarantee for the fair value of the guarantor’s obligations would not apply to product warranties or to guarantees accounted for as derivatives. The initial recognition and initial measurement provisions apply on a prospective basis to guarantees issued or modified after December 31, 2002, regardless of the guarantor’s fiscal year-end. The disclosure requirements in FIN 45 are effective for financial statements of interim or annual periods ending after December 15, 2002. The adoption of FIN 45 did not have a significant effect on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

Reclassifications

Certain reclassifications have been made to certain prior year amounts in order to conform with the current year presentation.

2. Restricted Cash

The Company has restricted cash totaling $365,000 and $495,000 as of February 28, 2002 and 2003, respectively. Restricted cash primarily consists of deposits to various municipalities, banks, and utilities to guarantee future performance of development obligations.

The Company’s economic interests in the unconsolidated joint ventures vary. Generally, the Company receives a portion of earnings after repayment of invested capital and payment of a preferred return on invested capital is provided. Typically, the majority of capital is provided by capital partners. In addition, the Company is typically required to contribute the full amount of its capital obligation at the commencement of the joint venture’s business, but in some cases the Company may have a contingent obligation to contribute additional capital. The Company is typically the direct or indirect managing entity pursuant to terms in each venture’s agreement. In the case of Divested Joint Ventures which are now Managed Projects, the Company or a subsidiary manages the development of the project under a management contract. Such management contracts as well as the unconsolidated joint venture agreements typically provide for the payment of a fee to compensate the Company for overhead expenditures as well as reimbursement of all direct project costs. The Company provides for income taxes currently on its share of distributed and undistributed earnings and losses from the investments.

The Company uses the equity method of accounting for its investments in the unconsolidated 50 or less percent-owned joint ventures. The accounting policies of the entities are substantially the same as those of the Company.

Following is summarized, combined financial information for the unconsolidated joint ventures as of February 28, 2002 and 2003 and for each of the three years in the period ended February 28, 2003 (in thousands). The balance sheet information at both dates does not include the Divested Joint Ventures, but the

At the current time, all material financing transactions and arrangements are incurred either by CPH LLC or by certain project-specific entities. As of February 28, 2003, the Company has in place credit facilities with contingent availabilities totaling $208 million (the “Facilities”) with various bank lenders (the “Banks”), of which $120 million was outstanding. Certain of the Facilities are secured by liens on various completed or under construction homes and lots held by CPH LLC or certain wholly-owned subsidiaries of the Company. Pursuant to the Facilities, CPH LLC and the wholly-owned subsidiaries are subject to certain covenants, which require, among other things, the maintenance of a consolidated liabilities to net worth ratio, minimum liquidity, minimum net worth and loss limitations, all as defined in the documents that evidence the Facilities. At February 28, 2003, CPH LLC and the wholly-owned subsidiaries were in compliance with these covenants. The Facilities also define certain events that constitute events of default. As of February 28, 2003, no such event had occurred. Commitment fees are payable annually on some of the Facilities.

During the fiscal 2003, CPH LLC renewed and extended its senior unsecured revolving credit facility (the “Senior Facility”) with several participant banks. As of February 28, 2003, the facility had a maximum commitment of $130 million and a three year revolving term. Subsequent to fiscal 2003, the maximum commitment was increased to $140 million. At the option of the Company, borrowings under the agreement bear interest at LIBOR plus applicable margin (3.88 percent at February 28, 2003) or at prime plus applicable margin (4.75 percent at February 28, 2003). Initial proceeds from this facility were used to pay down certain of CPH LLC’s existing facilities and retire the remaining $55.6 million of its previously issued 12 3/4% Senior Notes (“Senior Notes”) at face value during fiscal 2002. In addition, the Company has fixed the interest rate on $75 million of borrowings at 5.9% until October 2005 through an interest rate swap agreement with a bank which was required by the terms of the Senior Facility (see Note 11). The Company also entered into a Senior Subordinated Credit Agreement in the initial amount of $20 million, with a maturity date in October 2007, and also entered into an interest swap as required by the terms of the Senior Subordinated Credit Agreement effectively fixing the interest rate on that obligation at 9.5% through its maturity in October 2007 (see Note 11). The Senior Subordinated Credit Agreement has a maximum commitment of $50 million.

Homebuilding activity is being financed out of CPH LLC cash, bank financing, and the existing joint ventures, including joint ventures with institutional investors, including CHF. In addition, activity undertaken in certain of the Company’s joint ventures is financed through various non-recourse lending arrangements. The Company anticipates that it will continue to utilize both third party financing and joint ventures to cover financing needs in excess of internally generated cash flow.

During the years ended February 28, 2001, 2002 and 2003, the highest month-end balance on notes payable was $205 million, $168 million and $146 million, respectively, and the weighted average outstanding balance was $124 million, $124 million and $137 million, respectively. The weighted average interest rates on notes payable during the years ended February 28, 2001, 2002 and 2003, were 10.0 percent, 6.2 percent and 5.1 percent, respectively. The weighted average interest rates on notes payable at February 28, 2001, 2002 and 2003, were 8.4 percent, 5.1 percent and 4.4 percent, respectively.

6.	Senior Unsecured Notes Payable; Warrants

In May, 1994, the Company issued $100 million principal amount of its 12 3/4 percent Senior Notes due May 1, 2002 (the “Notes”). In connection with the issuance of the Notes, the Company issued 790,000 warrants to purchase the Company’s common stock at a price of $3.30 per share, all of which were fully exercisable until May 1, 2002. Interest was due and payable on May 1 and November 1 of each year. The obligations associated with the Notes were transferred to CPH LLC. Effective May 1, 2001, the Notes became redeemable at the option of CPH LLC at par, plus accrued interest. During fiscal 2000 and 2001, the Company repurchased $11.6 and $32.8 million of the Notes (face value), respectively, resulting in an extraordinary gain of $955,000 and $1,461,000, respectively. During the third quarter of fiscal 2002, the Company redeemed at face value the remaining $55.6 million of Senior Notes utilizing the proceeds of the Senior Facility obtained after the closing of the Exchange Transaction.

At February 28, 2001, unamortized bond issuance cost was $650,000, net of accumulated amortization of $5.2 million, which was being amortized over the term of the Notes utilizing the effective interest rate method. The balance of the unamortized bond issuance cost was fully amortized during fiscal 2002.

CAPITAL PACIFIC HOLDINGS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)

10.	Stock Option Plan

Effective February 28, 1995, the Board of Directors of the Company approved the 1995 Stock Incentive Plan (the “1995 Plan”). The 1995 Plan permits a committee designated by the Board of Directors to make awards to key employees and directors of the Company and its subsidiaries. Subject to various restrictions, awards could be in the form of stock options, restricted or unrestricted stock, stock appreciation rights or a combination of the above. The maximum number of shares or share equivalents that may be awarded under the 1995 Plan is 1,500,000.

Options are granted to purchase shares at prices equal to the fair market value of the shares at the date of grant. The options vest over a one to five year period and are exercisable at various dates over one to 10 year periods. When the options are exercised, the proceeds will be credited to equity along with the related income tax benefits, if any.

The following is a summary of the transactions relating to the Company’s stock option plan for the years ended February 28, 2001, 2002 and 2003:

No stock options were granted during fiscal 2002 or 2003.


11.	Comprehensive Income and Implementation of SFAS 133

Effective March 1, 2001, the Company adopted SFAS 133, “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities”, as amended. SFAS 133 establishes accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments and for hedging activities by requiring that all derivatives be recognized in the balance sheet and measured at fair value. The Company’s policy is to designate at a derivative’s inception the specific assets, liabilities, or future commitments being hedged and monitor the derivative to determine if it remains an effective hedge.

CAPITAL PACIFIC HOLDINGS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)

The Company has various interest rate swap agreements which effectively fix the variable interest rate on a notional amount of $95 million of its Senior Facility and Senior Subordinated Credit Agreement. The swap agreements have been designated as cash flow hedges and, accordingly, are reflected at their fair value in the consolidated balance sheet at February 28, 2003. The unrealized loss, as of February 28, 2003, of $2,512,000 (net of tax benefit of $1,675,000) is recorded in stockholders’ equity as accumulated other comprehensive loss.

Amounts to be received or paid as a result of the swap agreements are recognized as adjustments to interest incurred on the related debt instruments. The Company believes that there will be no ineffectiveness related to the interest rate swaps and therefore no portion of the accumulated other comprehensive loss would be reclassified into future earnings. The net effect on the Company’s operating results is that interest on the variable-rate debt being hedged is recorded and paid based on fixed interest rates.


12.	Related Party Transactions

In fiscal 2001, the Company contributed cash totaling $1,244,000 to unconsolidated joint ventures. In fiscal 2002, the Company contributed cash totaling $4,039,000 to unconsolidated joint ventures. In fiscal 2003, the Company contributed cash totaling $4,752,000 to unconsolidated joint ventures. The Company has made reimbursable advances to unconsolidated joint ventures (including the Divested Joint Ventures) for construction and other expenditures. The balance of advances at February 28, 2001, 2002 and 2003 was $3,725,000, $3,220,000 and $5,570,000, respectively. These amounts are included in investment in and advances to unconsolidated joint ventures in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. During fiscal 2001, the Company charged interest totaling $338,000 to the joint ventures based on these advances.

Included in accounts receivable at February 28, 2002 and February 28, 2003 is $270,000 and $197,000, respectively, of amounts owed from the Company’s various unconsolidated joint ventures to the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary, Newport Design Center, Inc. for goods and services rendered.

During fiscal 2001, 2002 and 2003, the Company recognized $12,092,000, $4,330,000 and $3,970,000, respectively, in construction overhead reimbursements from unconsolidated joint ventures (including the Divested Joint Ventures). Amounts are received pursuant to terms of the joint venture agreements, which generally specify a fixed payment per month over the anticipated period of development. Such amounts are included in selling, general and administrative expenses as a reimbursement of costs incurred in the accompanying income statements. As a result of the Exchange Transaction, as further described in Note 1 above, the amount of overhead incurred, as well as the corresponding reimbursements, decreased.

Effective February 23, 2001, CPH, Inc. and CHF consummated the Exchange Transaction, whereby CPH, Inc. exchanged its 0.75% capital interests and contingent profit interest in the majority of the joint ventures capitalized by CHF including the Divested Joint Ventures for all of CHF’s interest in CPH LLC and all of CHF’s interests in certain residential joint ventures. As a result of the Exchange Transaction, CPH, Inc.’s interest in total capital of CPH LLC increased by 48% or $35.6 million. As a result of the Exchange Transaction, CPH, Inc. has no further exposure to the economic or entitlement risks associated with the Divested Joint Ventures or Managed Projects, including no obligation to provide any capital.

Under the Exchange Transaction, the Company transferred its interests in the Divested Projects to Makallon, LLC (“Makallon”), which is beneficially owned by CHF and by a former director and officer of the Company, who is a relative of the Chairman of the Board of the Company. In connection with the Exchange Transaction, Capital Pacific Homes, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of CPH, Inc., has entered into construction, management and marketing agreements with Makallon relating to the Managed Projects whereby CPH, Inc. is compensated for performing such services through a management fee arrangement. In addition, the Company has entered into a lease agreement with Makallon for office space in one building owned by a certain joint venture controlled by Makallon. The original term of the lease is three years with the opportunity for multiple extensions at the Company’s option. During fiscal 2002 and 2003 the Company paid

CAPITAL PACIFIC HOLDINGS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

During fiscal 2003, the Chairman paid approximately $100,000 to a subsidiary of the Company for residential design and improvement services.

In February 2003, the Company sold an undeveloped parcel of land to an entity controlled by the relative of the Chairman referred to above for $5.2 million, resulting in a gain to the Company of approximately $2.9 million. The Company holds a note receivable from that entity in the amount of $4.1 million in connection with that transaction.

Subsequent to February 28, 2003, the Company entered into an agreement to purchase developed lots in Texas from an entity controlled by Makar Properties, as well as to lease office space from an affiliate of Makar Properties.

14.	Disclosures About Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instrument for which it is practicable to estimate:

Cash and Cash Equivalents — The carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value. These assets primarily consist of short-term investments and demand deposits.

Notes Payable to Banks — These notes payable mature over the next five years. The rates of interest paid on the notes approximate the current rates available for secured and unsecured real estate financing with similar terms and maturities.

Interest Rate Swaps — These instruments are accounted for in accordance with SFAS 133 and are marked to market at each reporting period.

The estimated fair values of the Company’s financial instruments are as follows (in thousands):
