In computing the ratio of earnings to fixed charges, fixed charges consist of homebuilding and corporate interest expense, mortgage lending interest expense, interest component of rent expense, amortization and expensing of debt expenses and capitalized interest. Earnings are computed by adding fixed charges (except capitalized interest) and amortization of previously capitalized interest during the period to (loss) earnings before income taxes. For the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, the Company generated losses which exceeded fixed charges of $19.0 million and $16.7 million, respectively. For the years ended December 31, 2009, 2008 and 2007, the Company generated losses which exceeded fixed charges of $68.0 million, $68.6 million and $70.3 million, respectively.
