Toll Brothers Reports FY 2023 1st Quarter Results
FORT WASHINGTON, PA, February 21, 2023 -- Toll Brothers, Inc. (NYSE:TOL) (TollBrothers.com), the nation’s leading builder of luxury homes, today announced results for its first quarter ended January 31, 2023.
FY 2023’s First Quarter Financial Highlights (Compared to FY 2022's First Quarter):
•Net income and earnings per share were $191.5 million and $1.70 per share diluted, compared to net income of $151.9 million and $1.24 per share diluted in FY 2022’s first quarter.
•Pre-tax income was $253.8 million, compared to $200.8 million in FY 2022’s first quarter.
•Home sales revenues were $1.7 billion, up 4% compared to FY 2022’s first quarter; delivered homes were 1,826, down 5%.
•Net signed contract value was $1.5 billion, down 51% compared to FY 2022’s first quarter; contracted homes were 1,461, down 50%.
•Backlog value was $8.6 billion at first quarter end, down 21% compared to FY 2022’s first quarter; homes in backlog were 7,733, down 32%.
•Home sales gross margin was 25.6%, compared to FY 2022’s first quarter home sales gross margin of 23.6%.
•Adjusted home sales gross margin, which excludes interest and inventory write-downs, was 27.5%, compared to FY 2022’s first quarter adjusted home sales gross margin of 25.6%.
•SG&A, as a percentage of home sales revenues, was 12.1%, compared to 13.4% in FY 2022’s first quarter.
•Income from operations was $225.3 million.
•Other income, income from unconsolidated entities, and gross margin from land sales and other was $16.8 million.
•The Company repurchased approximately 187,300 shares at an average price of $49.95 per share for a total purchase price of approximately $9.4 million.
Douglas C. Yearley, Jr., chairman and chief executive officer, stated: “We are very pleased with our strong first quarter results, as we exceeded the midpoint of our guidance on all key metrics. We delivered 1,826 homes and generated $1.75 billion in home building revenue, increased our adjusted gross margin by 190 basis points year-over-year to 27.5%, and decreased our SG&A expense, as a percentage of revenue, by 130 basis points compared to last year’s first quarter. As a result, we grew pre-tax income by 26% year-over-year and earnings per share by 37%. With a quarter-end backlog of $8.6 billion and 7,733 homes, we continue to project solid results in FY 2023. We are therefore reaffirming our full FY 2023 guidance of an adjusted gross margin of 27.0% and $8.00 to $9.00 of earnings per share.
“Since the start of the calendar year, we have seen a marked increase in demand beyond normal seasonality as buyer confidence appears to be improving. We believe the recent pick-up in demand is a sign that the long-term fundamentals underpinning the housing market remain intact. These include favorable demographic and migration trends, a very tight resale market, and growing pent-up demand resulting from over a decade of underproduction. Notwithstanding near-term uncertainty in the economy, we expect these factors will continue to support the housing market well into the future.
“Importantly, we continue to have sufficient land under control to increase community count in FY 2023 and beyond. Our balance sheet is solid, we have ample liquidity, and we expect to generate significant cash flow from operations in FY 2023. This should enable us to continue reducing debt and returning cash to stockholders throughout the year.
“This month, we were again named the World’s Most Admired Home Building Company by Fortune magazine. This is the eighth year we have been so honored. It is a recognition not only of the quality of our homes and our brand, but of the tremendous talent and hard work of our Toll Brothers associates.”

Toll Brothers operates in following five geographic segments, with current operations generally located in the states listed below:
•North: Connecticut, Delaware, Illinois, Massachusetts, Michigan, New Jersey, New York and Pennsylvania
•Mid-Atlantic: Georgia, Maryland, North Carolina, Tennessee and Virginia
•South: Florida, South Carolina and Texas
•Mountain: Arizona, Colorado, Idaho, Nevada and Utah
•Pacific: California, Oregon and Washington
At October 31, 2022, the Company concluded that its City Living operations no longer met the definition of an operating segment, primarily due to the change in structure and a shift in strategy for its operations. Amounts reported in prior periods have been reclassified to conform to the fiscal 2023 presentation. The realignment did not have any impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations, earnings per share or cash flows for the periods presented.

RECONCILIATION OF NON-GAAP MEASURES
This press release contains, and Company management’s discussion of the results presented in this press release may include, information about the Company’s adjusted home sales gross margin and the Company’s net debt-to-capital ratio.
These two measures are non-GAAP financial measures which are not calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, the comparable GAAP financial measures, and may be different from non-GAAP measures used by other companies in the home building business.
The Company’s management considers these non-GAAP financial measures as we make operating and strategic decisions and evaluate our performance, including against other home builders that may use similar non-GAAP financial measures. The Company’s management believes these non-GAAP financial measures are useful to investors in understanding our operations and leverage and may be helpful in comparing the Company to other home builders to the extent they provide similar information.
Adjusted Home Sales Gross Margin
The following table reconciles the Company’s home sales gross margin as a percentage of home sales revenues (calculated in accordance with GAAP) to the Company’s adjusted home sales gross margin (a non-GAAP financial measure). Adjusted home sales gross margin is calculated as (i) home sales gross margin plus interest recognized in home sales cost of revenues plus inventory write-downs recognized in home sales cost of revenues divided by (ii) home sales revenues.

The Company’s management believes adjusted home sales gross margin is a useful financial measure to investors because it allows them to evaluate the performance of our home building operations without the often varying effects of capitalized interest costs and inventory impairments. The use of adjusted home sales gross margin also assists the Company’s management in assessing the profitability of our home building operations and making strategic decisions regarding community location and product mix.
Forward-looking Adjusted Home Sales Gross Margin
The Company has not provided projected second quarter and full FY 2023 home sales gross margin or a GAAP reconciliation for forward-looking adjusted home sales gross margin because such measure cannot be provided without unreasonable efforts on a forward-looking basis, since inventory write-downs are based on future activity and observation and therefore cannot be projected for the second quarter and full FY 2023. The variability of these charges may have a potentially unpredictable, and potentially significant, impact on our second quarter and full FY 2023 home sales gross margin.
Net Debt-to-Capital Ratio
The following table reconciles the Company’s ratio of debt to capital (calculated in accordance with GAAP) to the Company’s net debt-to-capital ratio (a non-GAAP financial measure). The net debt-to-capital ratio is calculated as (i) total debt minus mortgage warehouse loans minus cash and cash equivalents divided by (ii) total debt minus mortgage warehouse loans minus cash and cash equivalents plus stockholders’ equity.

The Company’s management uses the net debt-to-capital ratio as an indicator of its overall leverage and believes it is a useful financial measure to investors in understanding the leverage employed in the Company’s operations.
