Toll Brothers Reports FY 2020 2nd Quarter Results
HORSHAM, PA, May 27, 2020 -- Toll Brothers, Inc. (NYSE:TOL) (www.TollBrothers.com), the nation’s leading builder of luxury homes, today announced results for its second quarter ended April 30, 2020.
FY 2020’s Second Quarter Financial Highlights (Compared to FY 2019’s Second Quarter):
•Net income and earnings per share were $75.7 million and $0.59 per share diluted, compared to net income of $129.3 million and $0.87 per share diluted in FY 2019’s second quarter.
•Pre-tax income was $102.1 million, compared to $176.2 million in FY 2019’s second quarter.
•Home sales revenues were $1.52 billion, down 11%; home building deliveries were 1,923, up 1%.
•Net signed contract units were 1,886, down 22%; contract value was $1.55 billion, down 22%.
•Backlog in units at second-quarter end was 6,428, down 1%; backlog value was $5.49 billion, down 3%.
•Home sales gross margin was 17.5%; Adjusted Home Sales Gross Margin, which excludes interest and inventory write-downs (“Adjusted Home Sales Gross Margin”), was 21.0%.
•Pre-tax inventory write-downs totaled $14.2 million.
•SG&A, as a percentage of home sales revenues, was 11.8%.
•During the quarter, the Company undertook a number of cost reduction initiatives to improve efficiencies and rationalize overhead expenses, including workforce reductions. The Company expects these actions will decrease overhead expenses by approximately $50 million on an annualized basis, with approximately $25 million of savings in the remainder of fiscal 2020.
•Income from operations was $92.5 million.
•Other income, income from unconsolidated entities, and land sales gross profit was $16.0 million.
Financial Guidance:
•As previously announced, due to the business disruption and the evolving and uncertain impact of the Covid-19 pandemic on the U.S. economy, the Company has withdrawn its full fiscal year 2020 guidance and will suspend providing such guidance for the foreseeable future.
Douglas C. Yearley, Jr., chairman and chief executive officer, stated: “We are pleased with our performance in the second quarter as our team delivered solid results under very challenging conditions. Our second quarter was essentially bifurcated by the impact of Covid-19. Fueled by strong demand, a healthy economy, low mortgage rates, and a limited supply of new and existing homes nationwide, our net signed contracts were up 43% through the six weeks ended March 15, 2020, compared to the prior year’s same period. With approximately 40% of our selling communities and 50% of the dollar value of our backlog concentrated in highly impacted markets, from March 16 through April 30, our net signed contracts declined 64% year over year. Government stay-at-home and business closure orders in these markets, which included Pennsylvania; New Jersey; New York City and its suburbs; Connecticut; Massachusetts; Michigan; metro Seattle and California, made it especially challenging to sell, construct and deliver homes. Fortunately, government restrictions have eased and sales and construction operations have resumed in almost all of our markets.
“While net signed contracts in the first four weeks of May were down 37% year-over-year, we are very encouraged by recent deposit activity. Our deposits, which typically precede a binding sales contract by about three weeks and represent a leading indicator of current market demand, were up 13% over the past three weeks versus the same three-week period last year. Importantly, our recent deposit-to-contract conversion ratio has remained consistent with pre-Covid-19 levels. Web traffic has also steadily improved from the lows we experienced in mid-March and has returned to the same strong activity we enjoyed pre-Covid-19 in February. These early trends suggest the housing market may be more resilient than anticipated just two months ago.
“We ended our second quarter with approximately $2.0 billion of liquidity, including $741 million of cash and marketable securities and $1.3 billion available under our $1.9 billion revolving credit facility, which does not mature until November 2024. With no significant debt maturities until February 2022, our balance sheet is strong.
“I would like to thank all of our Toll Brothers team members. I am so proud of how they have responded to the challenges we have faced during this time. We have seen first-hand their creative thinking, how hard they are working, and their incredibly positive spirit. They are completely dedicated to moving our great company forward while taking care of our customers every step of the way.
“With our trusted brand, experienced management team, diversified product offerings, strong liquidity, and high-quality land holdings, we believe we are well prepared for the immediate challenges ahead. We also believe we are well positioned to take advantage of the favorable long-term demographic and supply-demand trends underlying the housing market, which we expect will continue supporting the industry as the economy recovers.”

Toll Brothers operates in two segments: Traditional Home Building and Urban Infill ("City Living"). Within Traditional Home Building, Toll operates in five geographic segments. As previously reported, during the first quarter of fiscal 2020, management realigned certain of the states falling within its five home building regions. Within Traditional Home Building, the Company operates in the following five geographic segments, with current operations in the states listed below:
•North: Connecticut, Delaware, Illinois, Massachusetts, Michigan, Pennsylvania, New Jersey and New York
•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
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. Prior period results have been recast to conform with the Company’s current segments in the tables below:

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 Homes 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 homes sales gross margin as a percentage of homes sale revenues (calculated in accordance with GAAP) to the Company’s Adjusted Homes Sales Gross Margin (a non-GAAP financial measure). Adjusted Homes Sales Gross Margin is calculated as (i) homes sales gross margin plus interest recognized in homes sales cost of revenues plus inventory write-downs recognized in home sales cost of revenues divided by (ii) homes sale revenues.

| Adjusted Home Sales Gross Margin as a percentage of home sale revenues | 21.0 | % | 23.5 | % | 20.9 | % | 23.8 | % |
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 Homes Sales Gross Margin
The Company has not provided projected third quarter and full fiscal 2020 homes sales gross margin or a GAAP reconciliation for forward-looking Adjusted Homes 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 third quarter and full fiscal year 2020. The variability of these charges may have a potentially unpredictable, and potentially significant, impact on our third quarter and full fiscal year 2020 homes 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.
