Dear Lyon Stockholder
    

Duxford Financial, Inc. and Duxford Interiors

We are very pleased that our combined subsidiaries contributed significantly to our success in 2000, generating combined pre-tax income from operations of over $3.1 million. We hold a common set of objectives in both our mortgage company and our design center business, including customer satisfaction, profitability and the ability to control the quality and delivery of our homes.

During 2000, Duxford Financial, Inc. closed 1,856 loans for a total loan volume of $400 million, representing a 69% increase in loan closings and an 86% increase in loan volume over the prior year's results. We also increased our capture rate of loans on homes sold by the Company by more than 10% and believe we can further improve in this area in 2001.

In 2000, Duxford Interiors provided upgraded interior finishes to 1,033 homes, for a total volume of $10.4 million. We are very pleased with Duxford Interiors' contributions not only to the bottom line, but also in their facilitation of the delivery of our new homes.
