The value of the company's second-quarter contracts and backlog were the highest for any quarter in its history. These results are preliminary and unaudited. The Company will announce final totals when it releases second-quarter earnings results on May 26, 2005. Robert I. Toll, chairman and chief executive officer, stated: "Demand for luxury homes remains strong, and we continue to enjoy solid pricing power. Based on the pace of current demand and our record backlog, which now includes many deliveries stretching into the second quarter of FY 2006, we remain on track for what we believe will be approximately 60% net income growth in FY 2005 and approximately 20% net income growth in FY 2006. "In twelve of the thirteen weeks comprising our second quarter FY 2005, our non-binding reservation deposits, a precursor to signed contracts, were either the highest or second highest per community (same store) since 1987. We believe this strong demand, coupled with our record backlog and the increase in our community count - from 205 a year ago to 227 this second quarter-end - will contribute to our growth in FY 2006. "This quarter's home building revenues rose 51% to $1.23 billion as we delivered 1,912 homes, a second quarter record and 31% more units than we delivered in the same period one year ago. Unit deliveries were thirteen homes under the low end of the range of our most recent guidance while the average home price was slightly above the high end of the range. We remain comfortable with our previous guidance that we will deliver between 8,050 and 8,400 homes in FY 2005. "Our backlog now extends about eleven months on average, providing revenue visibility into the second quarter of FY 2006. Given current strong demand, we could have signed more contracts this quarter. However, since we lock in a buyer's home price when they sign a contract with us and before we start their homes, we have been reluctant to lock sales prices more than a year ahead of estimated delivery. Therefore, we have been slowing our sales pace in many communities while continuing to raise prices. We believe this strategy reduces our risk and helps maximize the value of each home in our communities. *more* "The value of contracts signed in the second quarter rose 38% over last year's second quarter: Our average home price grew to $693,000 from $616,600 one year ago and the number of contracts we signed rose 23%. Our contracts rose in every region but the West Coast (California). The decline in California was not due to a lack of demand, but rather to a lack of supply as we've sold out of several communities at a faster pace than we have been able to open up new ones. We have a number of new sites in the approval pipeline that should increase our California community count in the coming year. "We currently control approximately 68,000 lots, compared to 58,000 one year ago, and continue to see attractive land buying opportunities in most markets. We believe this lot position in affluent markets, which represents a five-to six year supply based on our historic pace of growth, positions us well for future growth." Toll Brothers' preliminary financial highlights for the three-month and six-month periods ended April 30, 2005 (unaudited): o The Company's FY 2005 second-quarter contracts of approximately $2.2 billion (3,181 homes), grew by 38% over FY 2004's second-quarter contracts of $1.60 billion (2,595 homes), the previous second-quarter record. In addition, in second quarter 2005, unconsolidated entities in which the Company had an interest signed contracts of approximately $85.2 million (123 homes). o FY 2005's six-month contracts of approximately $3.6 billion (5,354 homes), grew by 46% over FY 2004's total of $2.50 billion (4,107 homes), the previous six-month record. In addition, in the six-month FY 2005 period, unconsolidated entities in which the Company had an interest signed contracts of approximately $100.7 million (159 homes). o FY 2005 second quarter-end backlog of approximately $5.9 billion (8,561 homes), the highest in the Company's history, increased 57% over FY 2004's second-quarter-end backlog of $3.73 billion (6,211 homes), the previous second-quarter record. In addition, at the end of second quarter 2005, unconsolidated entities in which the Company had an interest had a backlog of approximately $111.7 million (183 homes). o FY 2005 second-quarter home building revenues of approximately $1.2 billion (1,912 homes), increased 51% over FY 2004's second-quarter home building revenues of $814.3 million (1,463 homes), the previous second-quarter record. Revenues from land sales totaled approximately $9.9 million for FY 2005's second quarter, compared to $2.0 million in FY 2004's. o FY 2005 six-month home building revenues of approximately $2.2 billion (3,502 homes) increased 58% over FY 2004's six-month home building revenues of $1.40 billion (2,548 homes), the previous six-month record. FY 2005 revenues from land sales for the six-month period totaled approximately $11.1 million compared to $8.0 million in the same period in FY 2004. *more* o In addition, in the Company's fiscal 2005 second-quarter and six-month periods, unconsolidated entities in which the Company had an interest delivered approximately $38.4 million (87 homes) and $64.9 million (150 homes), respectively, compared to $1.9 million (6 homes) and $3.4 million (11 homes), respectively, in the same periods of fiscal 2004. The Company's share of the profits from the delivery of these homes is included in `Equity Earnings in Unconsolidated Entities' on the Company's Income Statement.
