In the same periods of 2001, net income included gains of $494,000 and $2,973,000, respectively, from the sales of Meadow Pointe property. Gains from Meadow Pointe property sales in the 2001 periods include a gain before income taxes of $2,231,000 from the sale in June June: see month.  2001 of a 40 acre undeveloped commercial tract. There were no gains from sales of securities recorded in the 2001 periods.

The Company sold, respectively, 14 and 176 developed lots at Meadow Pointe during the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2002 as compared to 84 and 344 lots, respectively, in the same periods of 2001. The decreased sales activity in the 2002 periods reflects (1) a significant decline in lots available for sale as the project nears completion, and (2) delays in lot construction due to heavy rains in the Tampa Tampa (tăm`pə), city (1990 pop. 280,015), seat of Hillsborough co., W Fla., a port of entry with an impressive harbor on Tampa Bay; inc. 1855.  area during the third quarter of 2002.

. Cumulative adjustments resulting from changes in estimates of sales revenue, costs and related timing and other factors affecting the project budget were made during the first half of both 2002 and 2001. These adjustments, reflecting changes occurring during such periods, resulted in aggregate reductions in revenue and costs that reduced net income by $33,000 in the nine months ended September 30, 2002 and by $1,476,000 in the same period of 2001. As a result of recording cumulative changes when identified, gross margins and related margin percentages, derived on a period-to-period basis, may not be directly comparable.
