FORESTAR GROUP INC. REPORTS
SECOND QUARTER 2014 RESULTS


AUSTIN, TEXAS, August 6, 2014—Forestar Group Inc. (NYSE: FOR) today reported second quarter 2014 net income of approximately $14.8 million, or $0.34 per diluted share outstanding, compared with second quarter 2013 net income of approximately $0.5 million, or $0.02 per diluted share outstanding.

“During second quarter, residential lot sales remained strong and we are developing lots commensurate with inventories and home buyer demand. Multifamily market conditions remain favorable in our target markets, and we continue to acquire sites in 'A' locations to grow our business. In addition, oil and gas working interest production grew significantly, driven principally by new wells in the Bakken/Three Forks generating strong initial production. We are on track to deliver our Growing FORward strategic initiatives, which are focused on increasing total segment earnings, return on assets and opportunistically selling non-core assets. Our balance sheet strength, improving cash flows and significant liquidity are expected to adequately fund these initiatives,” said Jim DeCosmo, president and chief executive officer of Forestar Group.

Second Quarter 2014 Significant Highlights

Sold 537 developed residential lots, up nearly 50% compared with second quarter 2013
Converted over 10,000 acres of timber leases into ownership of 5,400 acres of undeveloped land from Ironstob venture, resulting in a $10.5 million gain
Increased working interest oil production over 65% compared with second quarter 2013, with 31 new gross wells generating initial production
Sold interest in 97 gross (6 net) non-core producing oil and gas wells in Oklahoma for a gain of $4.5 million and sold leasehold interests in 223 net mineral acres in North Dakota for a gain of $1.2 million

Forestar manages its operations through three business segments: real estate, oil and gas and other natural resources.

In second quarter 2014, residential lot sales were up almost 50% compared with second quarter 2013, with average lot prices and gross profit up 11% over that same period. Second quarter 2014 real estate segment earnings were higher compared with second quarter 2013 principally due to a $10.5 million gain associated with the exchange of over 10,000 acres of timber leases for 5,400 acres of undeveloped land from the Ironstob venture, and higher residential lot and undeveloped land sales. Real estate segment earnings increased in second quarter 2014 compared with first quarter 2014 primarily due to the $10.5 million gain associated with the exchange of timber leases for undeveloped land from Ironstob venture. First quarter 2014 real estate segment results include earnings of $13.2 million associated with the sale of approximately 8,400 acres of undeveloped land.

OIL AND GAS

Second Quarter 2014 Significant Highlights (Includes Ventures)

Increased total oil production by over 43% compared with second quarter 2013, principally due to working interest investments primarily targeting the Bakken/Three Forks and the Lansing-Kansas City formations
Sold interest in 97 gross (6 net) non-core producing oil and gas wells in Oklahoma for a gain of $4.5 million and sold leasehold interests in 223 net mineral acres in North Dakota for a gain of $1.2 million
Added 31 gross oil and gas wells, 5 Bakken/Three Forks gross wells waiting on completion at quarter-end
Leased nearly 1,400 net fee mineral acres to third parties, principally in Louisiana and Texas

Oil and gas segment earnings increased in second quarter 2014 compared with second quarter 2013 and first quarter 2014 principally due to $5.7 million in earnings associated with the sale of various oil and gas properties in Oklahoma and North Dakota and higher working interest production volumes, partially offset by higher exploration, production, depletion and operating expenses, and lower production volumes and delay rental revenues from owned mineral interests. Second quarter 2014 oil and gas segment earnings includes $2.1 million of dry hole expense associated with a working interest in an exploratory well in East Texas.

OTHER NATURAL RESOURCES

Second Quarter 2014 Significant Highlights (Includes Ventures)

Signed amended groundwater reservation agreement, generating $0.7 million in earnings
Sold nearly 107,800 tons of fiber for $16.86 per ton

Second quarter 2014 other natural resources segment results increased compared with second quarter 2013 and first quarter 2014 principally due to $0.7 million in earnings from a groundwater reservation agreement and a $0.7 million gain on termination of a timber lease in connection with the Ironstob venture.

OUTLOOK

Capitalizing on Low Lot Inventory and Solid Demand
"Our real estate markets remain favorable and we are well positioned to continue to capitalize on the housing recovery by growing residential lot sales and commercial and residential tract sales. We anticipate residential lot sales in 2014 to be in the range of 2,200 - 2,300 lots, up over 20% compared with 2013. Our multifamily team continues to build a solid pipeline of development sites, with our Eleven project in Austin now substantially complete, over 85% leased and on target for sale in 2014. In second quarter 2014, we acquired an additional multifamily site in Austin, Texas and began construction on a community near Denver. We will continue to evaluate and acquire additional residential and multifamily sites to further develop our real estate pipeline.

Working Interest Production Expected to Increase 30% in Second Half of 2014    
“During second quarter, we continued to invest in exploration and drilling activity, growing production, reserves and value. Drilling and completion activity increased in second quarter, with 17 gross Bakken/Three Forks wells (7% average working interest) generating initial production and 5 gross Bakken/Three Forks wells waiting on completion at quarter end. Operators in the Bakken/Three Forks formations continue to shift to pad drilling and are generating improved well results with increased production and lower drilling costs. In addition, exploration and drilling activity in Kansas and Nebraska continued to see favorable success rates and our addition of approximately 77,000 leasehold mineral acres in the Lansing-Kansas City formation during second quarter should further develop a solid pipeline of drilling prospects. As a result, working interest production is expected to increase 30% in the second half of 2014 compared with the first six months of 2014. In addition, we anticipate 2014 total oil and gas production will exceed 1.2 million BOE (barrel of oil equivalent), a 15% increase compared with 2013 levels.

Balance Sheet, Cash Flow and Liquidity Expected to Adequately Fund Growing FORward Initiatives
“We continue to see significant opportunities for growth through disciplined investments in our real estate and oil and gas businesses. Our strong balance sheet, improving cash flows and significant liquidity are expected to adequately fund our Growing FORward strategic initiatives,” concluded Mr. DeCosmo.

(c) 
Lots are for the total project, regardless of our ownership interest. Lots remaining represent vacant developed lots, lots under development and future planned lots and are subject to change based on business plan revisions.
(d) 
Commercial acres are for the total project, regardless of our ownership interest, and are net developable acres, which may be fewer than the gross acres available in the project.
