TOLL BROTHERS REPORTS 4TH QTR AND FY 2007 RESULTS
Horsham, PA, December 6, 2007 — Toll Brothers, Inc. (NYSE:TOL) (www.tollbrothers.com), the nation’s leading builder of luxury homes, today reported final results for its fourth quarter and fiscal year ended October 31, 2007.
In FY 2007’s fourth quarter, the Company generated a net loss of $81.8 million, or $0.52 per share diluted, compared to FY 2006’s fourth-quarter net income of $173.8 million, or $1.07 per share diluted. FY 2007’s fourth-quarter net loss included $314.9 million of pre-tax write-downs ($200.0 million, or $1.22 per share diluted, after-tax). Total pre-tax write-downs for both the fourth quarter and FY 2007 included $59.2 million of write-downs related to joint ventures. In FY 2006, fourth-quarter pre-tax write-downs totaled $115.0 million ($68.7 million, or $0.42 per share diluted, after-tax). Excluding write-downs, FY 2007’s fourth-quarter earnings were $0.72 per share diluted, compared to $1.49 per share diluted in FY 2006’s fourth quarter.
FY 2007’s full year net income was $35.7 million, or $0.22 per share diluted, compared to FY 2006’s same period results of $687.2 million, or $4.17 per share diluted. In FY 2007, twelve-month net income was reduced by write-downs and a first-quarter goodwill impairment charge which, combined, totaled $687.7 million pre-tax ($428.9 million, or $2.61 per share diluted, after-tax). In FY 2006, twelve-month net income was reduced by $152.0 million of pre-tax write-downs ($92.7 million, or $0.56 per share diluted, after-tax). Excluding write-downs and the goodwill impairment charge, FY 2007’s twelve-month earnings were $2.83 per share diluted, compared to $4.73 per share diluted in FY 2006’s twelve-month period.
The Company’s Stockholders’ Equity at FYE 2007 was $3.53 billion, compared to $3.42 billion at FYE 2006.
FY 2007’s fourth-quarter total revenues were $1.17 billion, compared to FY 2006’s fourth-quarter total revenues of $1.81 billion. FY 2007’s twelve-month total revenues were $4.65 billion, compared to the twelve-month record of $6.12 billion in FY 2006. FY 2007’s year-end backlog was $2.85 billion, compared to FY 2006’s year-end backlog of $4.49 billion.
FY 2007’s fourth-quarter net signed contracts were $365.3 million, compared to FY 2006’s fourth-quarter total of $706.3 million. FY 2007’s twelve-month net contracts were $3.01 billion, compared to FY 2006’s twelve-month total of $4.46 billion. In FY 2007’s fourth quarter, the Company signed 1,073 gross contracts (before cancellations), a 33% decline from the 1,595 signed in FY 2006’s fourth quarter. Net of cancellations, fourth-quarter contracts totaled 656 units, down 35% from 1,010 units in the fourth quarter of FY 2006. Fourth-quarter FY 2007 cancellations totaled 417 units, versus 585 units in fourth-quarter FY 2006; FY 2007’s fourth-quarter cancellations were

38.9% of current-quarter contracts and 8.3% of beginning-quarter backlog, compared to 36.7% and 7.3%, respectively, in the fourth quarter of FY 2006.
The Company ended its FY 2007 fourth quarter with $900 million in cash and more than $1.2 billion available under its bank credit facility, which matures in 2011. Its net debt-to-capital ratio (1) at October 31, 2007 stood at 26.8%, its lowest level ever, compared to 31.8% one year ago. The Company, which has continued to renegotiate, and in some cases, reduce its optioned land positions, ended FY 2007’s fourth quarter with approximately 59,300 lots owned and optioned, compared to approximately 91,200 at its peak at the second-quarter-end of FY 2006. The Company ended the fourth quarter with 315 selling communities, down from the peak of 325 at second-quarter-end, and expects to be selling from approximately 300 communities by Fiscal Year End 2008.
Robert I. Toll, chairman and chief executive officer, stated: “By many measures, Fiscal 2007 was the most challenging of the forty years that Toll Brothers has been in business. 1974 was perhaps rougher, but the difficult times only lasted one year. Confronted with this extremely difficult environment, our team still produced revenues of $4.6 billion and net income of $35.7 million, which was our twenty-second consecutive year of profitability. Stockholders’ Equity grew to $3.53 billion at FYE 2007. However, since going public in 1986, we’ve reported our first quarterly loss after 85 consecutive profitable quarters. The loss was driven by $315 million of (non-cash) pre-tax inventory-related impairments and related write-downs, which resulted in a fourth quarter net loss of $0.52 per share. Before write-downs, fourth quarter net income was a positive $118 million, or $0.72 per share; however the fact that we took such substantial write-downs this quarter, on top of the nearly $488 million of pre-tax inventory-related write-downs in the previous four quarters, reflects the market’s continued weakness.”
Joel H. Rassman, chief financial officer, stated: “With FY 2007 contracts of $3.01 billion and a year-end backlog of $2.85 billion, down 33% and 36%, respectively from one year ago, we expect that revenues in FY 2008 will be below those of FY 2007. Given the numerous uncertainties related to sales paces, sales prices, mortgage markets, cancellations, market direction and the potential for and size of future impairments, in the current climate it is particularly difficult to provide guidance for FY 2008. As a result, we will not provide earnings guidance at this time. However, subject to the caveats above, we offer the guidance that follows. We currently estimate that we will deliver between 3,900 and 5,100 homes in FY 2008 at an average delivered price of between $630,000 and $650,000 per home. We believe that, as a result of continuing incentives and slower sales per community, our cost of sales as a percent of revenues, before taking into account write-downs, will be higher in FY 2008 than in FY 2007. Additionally, based on FY 2008’s lower projected revenues, our SG&A, which we expect to be lower in absolute terms in FY 2008 than in FY 2007, will likely be higher as a percentage of revenues.”
Robert I. Toll continued: “We believe that motivated sellers, excess supply, and low interest rates make now an attractive time to buy a home, but weak consumer confidence continues to buck these positives. Broader concerns about the nation’s economy have magnified worries about potential price declines in the housing market.

“It’s not a matter of if, but a matter of when, this oversupply is absorbed. Then we shall return to better times. I believe those who wanted to buy but didn’t will kick themselves for their reticence, but the biggest hurdle for our clients right now is their concern about their ability to sell their old homes. An inability to obtain mortgages does not appear to be a problem for our buyers, but probably is a problem for our buyers’ buyers.
“Having navigated through previous downturns, we focus on ensuring ourselves adequate financial liquidity. At FYE 2007 we had about $1.2 billion available and unused under our bank credit facility, which expires in March 2011. This, combined with our $900 million in cash, gave us approximately $2.1 billion of available liquidity. In addition, we have no maturities on our $1.5 billion of outstanding public debt until 2011 and its average maturity is over 5.6 years. We have also strategically trimmed our land position by 35% in the past eighteen months.
“We also have streamlined our staffing operation to better match our reduced production. Unfortunately, we’ve had experience at this, having worked through the major downturns of 1974, 1980 and 1988.
“We have been devoting significant time and resources to identifying opportunities that may arise from the difficulties in the market. We have maintained active deal teams in most of our regions and have established and are constantly refreshing our network of relationships.
“This downturn may be our toughest test yet, but I believe our great team is up to the challenge. We still believe the demographics exist to hugely support the housing market. Pent-up demand has to be building. Immigration is at record levels and large amounts of wealth have been created. With interest rates still quite low and very few new lots moving through the approval process, as soon as we remove the fear of dropping home prices, we may witness a faster and stronger recovery than anticipated.”
