PART III
NARRATIVE
State below in reasonable detail the reasons why Forms 10-K, 20-F, 11-K, 10-Q, N-SAR,
N-CSR, or the transition report portion thereof could not be filed within the prescribed time
period.
Lennar
Corporation (the Company) is reviewing the classification
of an item on its statements of cash flows. If a change in classification is made, cash flows from operating activities will increase and cash flows from
investing activities will decrease, with no change in the Company's
cash position. Additionally, the change in classification, if made, will have no effect
on the Companys balance sheets, statements of earnings or
earnings per share amounts.
Because the Company has not completed its review of the classification of this item on
its statement of cash flows, the Company is filing this extension for the filing of its Form 10-Q for the
quarterly period ended August 31, 2005, which was due today. The Company expects to file the Form
10-Q within the five-day extension period provided under Rule 12b-25.
The classification under review concerns whether distributions of earnings from unconsolidated
entities, which have previously been classified by the Company as cash flows from investing
activities, should instead be classified as cash flows from operating activities.
