STATEMENT ON FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION

Certain information included in this report or in other materials we have filed or will file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) (as well as information included in oral statements or other written statements made or to be made by us) contains or may contain forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. One can identify these statements by the fact that they do not relate to matters of a strictly historical or factual nature and generally discuss or relate to future events. These statements contain words such as “anticipate,” “estimate,” “expect,” “project,” “intend,” “plan,” “believe,” “may,” “can,” “could,” “might,” “should,” and other words or phrases of similar meaning. Such statements may include, but are not limited to, information related to: anticipated operating results; home deliveries; financial resources and condition; changes in revenues; changes in profitability; changes in margins; changes in accounting treatment; cost of revenues; selling, general, and administrative expenses; interest expense; inventory write-downs; unrecognized tax benefits; anticipated tax refunds; sales paces and prices; effects of home buyer cancellations; growth and expansion; joint ventures in which we are involved; anticipated results from our investments in unconsolidated entities; the ability to acquire land and pursue real estate opportunities; the ability to gain approvals and open new communities; the ability to sell homes and properties; the ability to deliver homes from backlog; the ability to secure materials and subcontractors; the ability to produce the liquidity and capital necessary to expand and take advantage of opportunities; and legal proceedings and claims.

From time to time, forward-looking statements also are included in other reports on Forms 10-K, 10-Q, and 8-K; in press releases; in presentations; on our website; and in other materials released to the public. Any or all of the forward-looking statements included in this report and in any other reports or public statements made by us are not guarantees of future performance and may turn out to be inaccurate. This can occur as a result of incorrect assumptions or as a consequence of known or unknown risks and uncertainties. Many factors mentioned in this report or in other reports or public statements made by us, such as market conditions, government regulation, and the competitive environment, will be important in determining our future performance. Consequently, actual results may differ materially from those that might be anticipated from our forward-looking statements.

Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made. We undertake no obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise.

For a more detailed discussion of these factors, see the information under the captions “Risk Factors” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC and in this report.

When this report uses the words “we,” “us,” “our,” and the “Company,” they refer to Toll Brothers, Inc. and its subsidiaries, unless the context otherwise requires. References herein to fiscal year refer to our fiscal years ended or ending October 31.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

1. Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Toll Brothers, Inc. (the “Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our”), a Delaware corporation, and its majority-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. Investments in 50% or less owned partnerships and affiliates are accounted for using the equity method unless it is determined that we have effective control of the entity, in which case we would consolidate the entity.

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for interim financial information. The October 31, 2016 balance sheet amounts and disclosures included herein have been derived from our October 31, 2016 audited financial statements. Since the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all the information and footnotes required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for complete financial statements, we suggest that they be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2016 (“2016 Form 10-K”). In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments, which are of a normal recurring nature, necessary to present fairly our financial position as of January 31, 2017; the results of our operations for the three-month periods ended January 31, 2017 and 2016; and our cash flows for the three-month periods ended January 31, 2017 and 2016. The results of operations for such interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

Acquisition

In November 2016, we acquired substantially all of the assets and operations of Coleman Real Estate Holdings, LLC (“Coleman”) for $85.2 million in cash. The assets acquired were primarily inventory, including approximately 1,750 home sites owned or controlled through land purchase agreements. As part of the acquisition, we assumed contracts to deliver 128 homes with an aggregate value of $38.8 million. The average price of the undelivered homes at the date of acquisition was approximately $303,000. Our selling community count increased by 15 communities at the acquisition date. The acquisition of Coleman’s assets and operations was not material to our results of operations or financial condition.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In April 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2015-05, “Intangibles - Goodwill and Other - Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Customers’ Accounting for Fees Paid in a Cloud Computing Arrangement” (“ASU 2015-05”). ASU 2015-05 provides guidance for a customer to determine whether a cloud computing arrangement contains a software license or should be accounted for as a service contract. We adopted ASU 2015-05 on November 1, 2016, and we elected to adopt the standard prospectively. The adoption did not have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements or disclosures.

In February 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-02, “Consolidation (Topic 810): Amendments to the Consolidation Analysis” (“ASU 2015-02”), which eliminates the deferral granted to investment companies from applying the variable interest entities (“VIEs”) guidance and makes targeted amendments to the current consolidation guidance. The new guidance applies to all entities involved with limited partnerships or similar entities and will require re-evaluation of these entities under the revised guidance which may change previous consolidation conclusions. We adopted ASU 2015-02 on November 1, 2016, and the adoption did not have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements or disclosures.

In February 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-05, “Other Income - Gains and Losses from the Derecognition of Nonfinancial Assets (Subtopic 610-20): Clarifying the Scope of Asset Derecognition Guidance and Accounting for Partial Sales of Nonfinancial Assets” (“ASU 2017-05”). ASU 2017-05 is meant to clarify the scope of the original guidance within Subtopic 610-20 that was issued in connection with ASU 2014-09, as defined below, which provides guidance for recognizing gains and losses from the transfer of nonfinancial assets in contracts with noncustomers. ASU 2017-05 additionally added guidance for partial sales of nonfinancial assets. ASU 2017-05 is effective for our fiscal year beginning November 1, 2018 and we are required to adopt ASU 2017-05 concurrent with the adoption of ASU 2014-09. We are currently evaluating the impact that the adoption of ASU 2017-05 may have on our consolidated financial statements and disclosures.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-01, “Business Combinations (Topic 805): Clarifying the Definition of a Business” (“ASU 2017-01”), which provides a more robust framework for determining whether transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions of assets (or disposals) or businesses. ASU 2017-01 is effective for our fiscal year beginning

November 1, 2018. We are currently evaluating the impact that the adoption of ASU 2017-01 may have on our consolidated financial statements and disclosures.

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-09, “Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting” (“ASU 2016-09”). ASU 2016-09 simplifies several aspects related to the accounting for share-based payment transactions, including the accounting for income taxes and forfeitures, statutory tax withholding requirements and classification on the statement of cash flows. ASU 2016-09 is effective for our fiscal year beginning November 1, 2017. We are currently evaluating the impact that the adoption of ASU 2016-09 may have on our consolidated financial statements and disclosures.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, “Leases” (“ASU 2016-02”), which requires an entity to recognize assets and liabilities on the balance sheet for the rights and obligations created by leased assets and provide additional disclosures. ASU 2016-02 is effective for our fiscal year beginning November 1, 2019, and, at that time, we will adopt the new standard using a modified retrospective approach. We are currently evaluating the impact that the adoption of ASU 2016-02 may have on our consolidated financial statements and disclosures.

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” (“ASU 2014-09”), which provides guidance for revenue recognition. ASU 2014-09 affects any entity that either enters into contracts with customers to transfer goods or services or enters into contracts for the transfer of nonfinancial assets. ASU 2014-09 supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 605, “Revenue Recognition,” and most industry-specific guidance. ASU 2014-09 also supersedes some cost guidance included in ASC Subtopic 605-35, “Revenue Recognition—Construction-Type and Production-Type Contracts.” The standard’s core principle is that a company will recognize revenue when it transfers promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which a company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. In doing so, companies will need to use more judgment and make more estimates than under the current guidance. These judgments and estimates include identifying performance obligations in the contract, estimating the amount of variable consideration to include in the transaction price, and allocating the transaction price to each separate performance obligation. In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-14 “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” (“ASU 2015-14”), which delays the effective date of ASU 2014-09 by one year. ASU 2014-09, as amended by ASU 2015-14, is effective for our fiscal year beginning November 1, 2018, and, at that time, we expect to adopt the new standard under the modified retrospective approach. We do not believe the adoption of ASU 2014-09 will have a material impact on the amount or timing of our home building revenues. We are continuing to evaluate the impact the adoption of ASU 2014-09 may have on other aspects of our business and on our consolidated financial statements and disclosures.

2. Inventory

Inventory at January 31, 2017 and October 31, 2016 consisted of the following (amounts in thousands):



	January 31, 2017		October 31, 2016
Land controlled for future communities	$	72,075	$	71,729
Land owned for future communities	1,620,763		1,884,146
Operating communities	5,847,136		5,398,092
	$	7,539,974	$	7,353,967

Operating communities include communities offering homes for sale, communities that have sold all available home sites but have not completed delivery of the homes, communities that were previously offering homes for sale but are temporarily closed due to business conditions or non-availability of improved home sites and that are expected to reopen within 12 months of the end of the fiscal period being reported on, and communities preparing to open for sale. The carrying value attributable to operating communities includes the cost of homes under construction, land and land development costs, the carrying cost of home sites in current and future phases of these communities, and the carrying cost of model homes.

Communities that were previously offering homes for sale but are temporarily closed due to business conditions, do not have any remaining backlog and are not expected to reopen within 12 months of the end of the fiscal period being reported on have been classified as land owned for future communities.

Information regarding the classification, number, and carrying value of these temporarily closed communities, as of the dates indicated, is provided in the table below:



	January 31, 2017		October 31, 2016
Land owned for future communities:
Number of communities	13		18
Carrying value (in thousands)	$	103,607	$	123,936
Operating communities:
Number of communities	6		3
Carrying value (in thousands)	$	39,237	$	8,523

The amounts we have provided for inventory impairment charges and the expensing of costs that we believed not to be recoverable, for the periods indicated, are shown in the table below (amounts in thousands):



	Three months ended January 31,
	2017		2016
Land controlled for future communities	$	661	$	381
Land owned for future communities			300
Operating communities	4,000		600
	$	4,661	$	1,281

See Note 11, “Fair Value Disclosures,” for information regarding the number of operating communities that we tested for potential impairment, the number of operating communities in which we recognized impairment charges, the amount of impairment charges recognized, and the fair values of those communities, net of impairment charges.

At January 31, 2017, we evaluated our land purchase contracts to determine whether any of the selling entities were VIEs and, if they were, whether we were the primary beneficiary of any of them. Under these land purchase contracts, we do not possess legal title to the land; our risk is generally limited to deposits paid to the sellers and predevelopment costs incurred; and the creditors of the sellers generally have no recourse against us. At January 31, 2017, we determined that 82 land purchase contracts, with an aggregate purchase price of $964.4 million, on which we had made aggregate deposits totaling $46.7 million, were VIEs, and that we were not the primary beneficiary of any VIE related to our land purchase contracts. At October 31, 2016, we determined that 78 land purchase contracts, with an aggregate purchase price of $987.3 million, on which we had made aggregate deposits totaling $44.1 million, were VIEs and that we were not the primary beneficiary of any VIE related to our land purchase contracts.

Interest incurred, capitalized, and expensed, for the periods indicated, was as follows (amounts in thousands):



	Three months ended January 31,
	2017			2016
Interest capitalized, beginning of period	$	369,419		$	373,128

Interest expensed to cost of revenues	(27,928		)	(32,023		)
Write-off against other income	(42		)	(275		)
Interest capitalized on investments in unconsolidated entities	(2,394		)	(1,007		)
Previously capitalized interest transferred to investments in unconsolidated entities	(4,030		)	—
Previously capitalized interest on investments in unconsolidated entities transferred to inventory	81
Interest capitalized, end of period	$	376,880		$	379,930

3. Investments in Unconsolidated Entities

We have investments in various unconsolidated joint venture entities. These joint ventures (i) develop land for the joint venture participants and for sale to outside builders (“Land Development Joint Ventures”); (ii) develop for-sale homes (“Home Building Joint Ventures”); (iii) develop luxury for-rent residential apartments, commercial space, and a hotel (“Rental Property Joint Ventures”), which includes our investment in Toll Brothers Realty Trust (the “Trust”); and (iv) invest in distressed loans and

real estate and provide financing to residential builders and developers for the acquisition and development of land and home sites (“Gibraltar Joint Ventures”).

The table below provides information as of January 31, 2017, regarding active joint ventures that we are invested in, by joint venture category ($ amounts in thousands):

More specific and/or recent information regarding our investments in, advances to, and future commitments to these entities is provided below.

Land Development Joint Ventures

During the three months ended January 31, 2017, our Land Development Joint Ventures sold approximately 303 lots and recognized revenues of $56.3 million. We acquired 102 of these lots for $25.0 million. Our share of the joint venture income from the lots we acquired of $3.7 million was deferred by reducing our basis in those lots acquired. During the three months ended January 31, 2016, our Land Development Joint Ventures sold approximately 83 lots and recognized revenues of $12.6 million. We acquired 9 of these lots for $0.8 million. Our share of the income from the lots we acquired of $0.2 million was deferred by reducing our basis in those lots acquired.

In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2015, we entered into a joint venture with an unrelated party to purchase and develop a parcel of land located in Irvine, California. The joint venture expects to develop approximately 840 home sites on this land in multiple phases. We have a 50% interest in this joint venture. The joint venture intends to develop the property and sell approximately 50% of the value of the home sites to each of the members of the joint venture. At January 31, 2017, we had an investment of $170.2 million in this joint venture and were committed to make additional contributions to this joint venture of up to $12.5 million. To finance a portion of the land purchase, the joint venture entered into a $320.0 million purchase money mortgage with the seller. In December 2016, the joint venture entered into a $200.0 million building loan agreement and each member made a capital contribution of $80.0 million. A portion of the proceeds from the building loan in addition to the capital contributions made by the members were used to repay the purchase money mortgage. At January 31, 2017, this joint venture had $186.7 million of outstanding borrowings under the building loan.

Home Building Joint Ventures

Our Home Building Joint Ventures are delivering homes in New York City and Jupiter, Florida. During the three months ended January 31, 2017, our Home Building Joint Ventures delivered 87 homes with a sales value of $217.4 million. During the three months ended January 31, 2016, our Home Building Joint Ventures delivered 19 homes with a sales value of $16.0 million.

In December 2016, we entered into a joint venture with an unrelated party to complete the development of a high-rise luxury condominium project in New York City. Before the formation of this joint venture, we acquired the property and incurred approximately $176.0 million of land and land development costs. The joint venture, in which we have a 20% interest, purchased the property from us at our cost, a portion of which was financed by a $236.5 million construction loan obtained by the joint venture. From the sale and financing, we received proceeds of $148.0 million, of which $106.1 million had been held in escrow by our captive title company at October 31, 2016 and was included in “Receivables, prepaid expenses, and other

assets” on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet at October 31, 2016. At January 31, 2017, we had an investment of $30.0 million in this joint venture and the joint venture had $57.5 million of outstanding borrowings under the construction loan.

Rental Property Joint Ventures

As of January 31, 2017, our Rental Property Joint Ventures owned 10 for-rent apartment projects, which are located in the metro Boston to metro Washington, D.C. corridor. At January 31, 2017, our joint ventures had approximately 2,950 units that were occupied or ready for occupancy, 600 units in the lease-up stage, and 1,400 units under active development. In addition, we either own, have under contract, or under a letter of intent approximately 4,910 units, which are in the planning stage. We intend to develop these units with joint venture partners in the future.

In the second quarter of fiscal 2016, we entered into a joint venture with an unrelated party to develop a 525-unit luxury for-rent residential apartment building near Union Station in Washington, D.C. Prior to the formation of this joint venture, we acquired the land, through a 100%-owned entity, and incurred $35.1 million of land and land development costs. Our partner acquired a 50% interest in this entity for $20.2 million and we subsequently received cash of $18.7 million to align the capital accounts of each of the partners of the joint venture. In the third quarter of fiscal 2016, as a result of the sale of 50% of our interest to our partner, we recognized a gain of $3.0 million. Due to our continued involvement in the joint venture through our ownership interest, we deferred $3.0 million of the gain realized on the sale. At January 31, 2017, we had an investment of $29.1 million in this joint venture and expect to make additional investments of approximately $0.8 million for the development of this project. In November 2016, the joint venture entered into a $130.6 million construction loan agreement. At January 31, 2017, there were no outstanding borrowings under the construction loan agreement.

In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2016, we entered into a joint venture with an unrelated party to develop a 390-unit luxury for-rent residential apartment building in a Boston, Massachusetts suburb, on land that we were under contract to purchase. We have a 25% interest in this joint venture. In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2016, the joint venture entered into a $91.0 million construction loan agreement with a bank to finance the development of this project. At January 31, 2017, there were no outstanding borrowings under the construction loan agreement. At January 31, 2017, we had an investment of $9.3 million in this joint venture and expect to make additional investments of approximately $1.7 million for the development of this project.

We have an investment in a joint venture in which we have a 50% interest to develop a luxury hotel in conjunction with a high-rise luxury condominium project in New York City being developed by a related Home Building Joint Venture. At January 31, 2017, we had invested $40.5 million in this joint venture. In November 2014, this joint venture, along with the related Home Building Joint Venture, entered into a $160.0 million construction loan agreement to complete the construction of the condominiums and the hotel. In December 2016, this joint venture entered into an $80.0 million, three-year term loan agreement. The proceeds from the term loan, along with proceeds from the closing of condominium units at the Home Building Joint Venture, were used to repay the construction loan. At January 31, 2017, this joint venture had $80.0 million of outstanding borrowings under the term loan.

In 1998, we formed the Trust to invest in commercial real estate opportunities. The Trust is effectively owned one-third by us; one-third by current and former members of our senior management; and one-third by an unrelated party. As of January 31, 2017, our investment in the Trust was zero as cumulative distributions received from the Trust have been in excess of the carrying amount of our net investment. We provide development, finance, and management services to the Trust and recognized fees under the terms of various agreements in the amount of $0.4 million in both the three-month periods ended January 31, 2017 and 2016. In the first quarter of fiscal 2016, we received a $2.0 million distribution from the Trust, which is included in “Income from unconsolidated entities” in our Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations and Comprehensive Income. No distributions were received from the Trust in the first quarter of fiscal 2017.

Gibraltar Joint Ventures

In the second quarter of fiscal 2016, we, through our wholly owned subsidiary, Gibraltar Capital and Asset Management, LLC (“Gibraltar”), entered into two ventures with an institutional investor to provide builders and developers with land banking and venture capital. We have a 25% interest in these ventures. These ventures will finance builders’ and developers’ acquisition and development of land and home sites and pursue other complementary investment strategies. We may invest up to $100.0 million in these ventures. As of January 31, 2017, we had an investment of $10.5 million in these ventures.

In addition, in the second quarter of fiscal 2016, we entered into a separate venture with the same institutional investor to purchase, from Gibraltar, certain foreclosed real estate owned (“REO”) and distressed loans for $24.1 million. We have a 24% interest in this venture. At January 31, 2017, we have a $5.0 million investment in this venture and are committed to invest an additional $9.6 million, if necessary.

Guarantees

The unconsolidated entities in which we have investments generally finance their activities with a combination of partner equity and debt financing. In some instances, we and our partners have guaranteed debt of certain unconsolidated entities. These guarantees may include any or all of the following: (i) project completion guarantees, including any cost overruns; (ii) repayment guarantees, generally covering a percentage of the outstanding loan; (iii) carry cost guarantees, which cover costs such as interest, real estate taxes, and insurance; (iv) an environmental indemnity provided to the lender that holds the lender harmless from and against losses arising from the discharge of hazardous materials from the property and non-compliance with applicable environmental laws; and (v) indemnification of the lender from “bad boy acts” of the unconsolidated entity.

In some instances, the guarantees provided in connection with loans to an unconsolidated entity are joint and several. In these situations, we generally have a reimbursement agreement with our partner that provides that neither party is responsible for more than its proportionate share or agreed upon share of the guarantee; however, if a joint venture partner does not have adequate financial resources to meet its obligations under the reimbursement agreement, we may be liable for more than our proportionate share.

We believe that, as of January 31, 2017, in the event we become legally obligated to perform under a guarantee of an obligation of an unconsolidated entity due to a triggering event, the collateral in such entity should be sufficient to repay a significant portion of the obligation. If it is not, we and our partners would need to contribute additional capital to the venture. At January 31, 2017, certain unconsolidated entities have loan commitments aggregating $1.25 billion, of which, if the full amount of the debt obligations were borrowed, we estimate $206.5 million to be our maximum exposure related to repayment and carry cost guarantees. At January 31, 2017, the unconsolidated entities had borrowed an aggregate of $747.7 million, of which we estimate $147.0 million to be our maximum exposure related to repayment and carry cost guarantees. The terms of these guarantees generally range from 3 months to 46 months. These maximum exposure estimates do not take into account any recoveries from the underlying collateral or any reimbursement from our partners.

In addition, we have guaranteed approximately $4.0 million of ground lease payments and insurance deductibles for three joint ventures.

As of January 31, 2017, the estimated aggregate fair value of the guarantees provided by us related to debt and other obligations of certain unconsolidated entities was approximately $5.6 million. We have not made payments under any of the guarantees, nor have we been called upon to do so.

Variable Interest Entities

At January 31, 2017 and October 31, 2016, we determined that five and three, respectively, of our joint ventures were VIEs under the guidance of ASC 810, “Consolidation.” However, we have concluded that we were not the primary beneficiary of these VIEs because the power to direct the activities of such VIEs that most significantly impact their performance was either shared by us and such VIEs’ other partners or such activities were controlled by our partner. For VIEs where the power to direct significant activities is shared, business plans, budgets, and other major decisions are required to be unanimously approved by all members. Management and other fees earned by us are nominal and believed to be at market rates, and there is no significant economic disproportionality between us and the other members. The information presented below regarding the investments, commitments, and guarantees in unconsolidated entities deemed to be VIEs is also included in the information provided above.

At January 31, 2017 and October 31, 2016, our investments in the unconsolidated joint ventures deemed to be VIEs, which is included in “Investments in unconsolidated entities” in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, totaled $21.5 million and $16.4 million, respectively. At January 31, 2017, the maximum exposure of loss to our investments in the unconsolidated joint ventures that are VIEs was limited to our investments in the unconsolidated VIEs, except with regard to $9.6 million of additional commitments to the VIEs. At October 31, 2016, the maximum exposure of loss to our investments in the unconsolidated joint ventures that are VIEs was limited to our investments in the unconsolidated VIEs, except with regard to $70.0 million of loan guarantees and $1.4 million of additional commitments to the VIEs. Of our potential exposure for these loan guarantees at October 31, 2016, $14.3 million is related to repayment and carry cost guarantees.

(1)

Differences between our net investment in unconsolidated entities and our underlying equity in the net assets of the entities are primarily a result of the acquisition price of an investment in a Land Development Joint Venture in fiscal 2012 that was in excess of our pro rata share of the underlying equity; impairments related to our investment in unconsolidated entities; interest capitalized on our investments; the estimated fair value of the guarantees provided to the joint ventures; gains recognized from the sale of our ownership interests; and distributions from entities in excess of the carrying amount of our net investment.

(2)

Differences between our equity in earnings of unconsolidated entities and the underlying net income of the entities are primarily a result of a basis difference of an acquired joint venture interest; distributions from entities in excess of the carrying amount of our net investment; recoveries of previously incurred charges; unrealized gains on our retained joint venture interests; and our share of the entities’ profits related to home sites purchased by us which reduces our cost basis of the home sites acquired.

Senior Unsecured Term Loan

On February 3, 2014, we entered into a five-year senior, $485.0 million, unsecured term loan facility (the “Term Loan Facility”) with a syndicate of banks. We borrowed the full amount of the Term Loan Facility on February 3, 2014. In October 2014, we increased the Term Loan Facility by $15.0 million and borrowed the full amount of the increase. The Term Loan Facility, as amended, matures on August 2, 2021. At January 31, 2017, the interest rate on borrowings was 2.18% per annum.

We and substantially all of our 100%-owned home building subsidiaries are guarantors under the Term Loan Facility. The Term Loan Facility contains substantially the same financial covenants as our New Credit Facility, as described below.

Credit Facility

On August 1, 2013, we entered into a $1.035 billion, unsecured, five-year revolving credit facility (the “Credit Facility”). The commitments under the Credit Facility were scheduled to expire on August 1, 2018. On May 19, 2016, we entered into a new $1.215 billion (subsequently increased to $1.295 billion), unsecured, five-year revolving credit facility (the “New Credit Facility”) with a syndicate of banks (the “Aggregate Credit Commitment”) and terminated the Credit Facility. The commitments under the New Credit Facility are scheduled to expire on May 19, 2021. We and substantially all of our 100%-owned home building subsidiaries are guarantors under the New Credit Facility.

Under the terms of the New Credit Facility, at January 31, 2017, our maximum leverage ratio (as defined in the credit agreement) may not exceed 1.75 to 1.00, and we are required to maintain a minimum tangible net worth (as defined in the credit agreement) of no less than approximately $2.64 billion. Under the terms of the New Credit Facility, at January 31, 2017, our leverage ratio was approximately 0.79 to 1.00, and our tangible net worth was approximately $4.28 billion. Based upon the minimum tangible net worth requirement in the New Credit Facility, our ability to repurchase our common stock was limited to approximately $2.34 billion as of January 31, 2017.

At January 31, 2017, we had $250.0 million of outstanding borrowings under the New Credit Facility and had outstanding letters of credit of approximately $112.4 million under the New Credit Facility. Subsequent to January 31, 2017, we borrowed

an additional $125.0 million under the New Credit Facility. At January 31, 2017, the interest rate on borrowings under the New Credit Facility was 2.27% per annum.

Loans Payable – Other

Our “Loans payable – other” primarily represent purchase money mortgages on properties we acquired that the seller had financed and various revenue bonds that were issued by government entities on our behalf to finance community infrastructure and our manufacturing facilities. At January 31, 2017, the weighted-average interest rate on “Loans payable – other” was 3.99% per annum.

Senior Notes

At January 31, 2017, we, through Toll Brothers Finance Corp., had eight issues of Senior Notes outstanding with an aggregate principal amount of $2.71 billion.

Mortgage Company Loan Facility

In October 2016, TBI Mortgage^® Company (“TBI Mortgage”), our wholly owned mortgage subsidiary, entered into a Mortgage Warehousing Agreement (“Warehousing Agreement”) with a syndicate of banks. The purpose of the Warehousing Agreement is to finance the origination of mortgage loans by TBI Mortgage, and the Warehousing Agreement is accounted for as a secured borrowing under ASC 860, “Transfers and Servicing.” The Warehousing Agreement provides for loan purchases up to $150 million, subject to certain sublimits. In addition, the Warehousing Agreement provides for an accordion feature under which TBI Mortgage may request that the aggregate commitments under the Warehousing Agreement be increased to an amount up to $210 million for a short period of time. The Warehousing Agreement expires on October 27, 2017, and borrowings thereunder bear interest at LIBOR plus 2.00% per annum. At January 31, 2017, the interest rate on the Warehousing Agreement was 2.78% per annum. At January 31, 2017 and October 31, 2016, there was $57.0 million and $210.0 million, respectively, outstanding under the Warehousing Agreement, respectively, which are included in liabilities in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

6. Accrued Expenses

Accrued expenses at January 31, 2017 and October 31, 2016 consisted of the following (amounts in thousands):



	January 31, 2017		October 31, 2016
Land, land development, and construction	$	131,290	$	153,264
Compensation and employee benefits	138,680		138,282
Escrow liability	40,360		137,396
Self-insurance	124,100		126,431
Warranty	364,058		370,992
Deferred income	38,940		43,488
Interest	39,325		34,903
Commitments to unconsolidated entities	6,411		5,637
Other	56,938		61,907
	$	940,102	$	1,072,300

As previously disclosed in Note 6, “Accrued Expenses” in our 2016 Form 10-K, we determined that we needed to make repairs in certain completed communities located in Pennsylvania and Delaware (which are in our Mid-Atlantic region) related to stucco and other water intrusion claims in older homes. Each quarter, we review and update where necessary our assumptions to the estimates used in determining our estimated liability for these claims. This review and update includes an analysis to determine an estimated number of claims likely to be received and the estimated costs to resolve any such claims. This analysis involves many factors including: the number of communities involved; the closing dates of the homes in each community; the number of claims received to date; our inspection of homes; an estimate of the number of homes we expect to repair; the type and cost of repairs that have been performed in each community; the estimated costs to remediate pending and future claims in each community; the expected recovery from our insurance carriers and others; and the amount of warranty and self-insurance reserves already recorded. Due to the degree of judgment required and the potential for variability in the underlying assumptions, it is reasonably possible that our actual costs could differ from those estimated, such differences could be material, and, therefore, we are unable to estimate the range of any such differences. Based upon our review at January 31, 2017, we determined that no adjustments to our previous estimates were needed.

At January 31, 2017 and October 31, 2016, our estimated remaining liability to be expended for known and unknown stucco and other water intrusion claims was $291.7 million and $298.0 million, respectively, of which we expect to recover a total of approximately $140.0 million and $141.7 million, respectively, from outside insurance carriers and others.

We accrue for expected warranty costs at the time each home is closed and title and possession are transferred to the home buyer. Warranty costs are accrued based upon historical experience. The table below provides, for the periods indicated, a reconciliation of the changes in our warranty accrual (amounts in thousands):



	Three months ended January 31,
	2017			2016
Balance, beginning of period	$	370,992		$	93,083
Additions – homes closed during the period	5,104			4,496
Addition – Coleman liabilities acquired	1,111
Increase in accruals for homes closed in prior years	1,694			2,453
Reclassification from other accruals	732
Charges incurred	(15,575		)	(9,371		)
Balance, end of period	$	364,058		$	90,661

7. Income Taxes

We recorded income tax provisions of $39.4 million and $43.6 million for the three months ended January 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively. The effective tax rate for the three months ended January 31, 2017 was 35.9%, compared to 37.4% for the three months ended January 31, 2016. The income tax provisions for both periods included the provision for state income taxes and interest accrued on anticipated tax assessments, offset by tax benefits related to the utilization of domestic production activities deductions and other permanent differences.

We currently operate in 20 states and are subject to various state tax jurisdictions. We estimate our state tax liability based upon the individual taxing authorities’ regulations, estimates of income by taxing jurisdiction, and our ability to utilize certain tax-saving strategies. We estimate our rate for the full fiscal year 2017 for state income taxes will be 7.6%. Our state income tax rate for the full fiscal year 2016 was 7.0%.

For state tax purposes, due to past and projected losses in certain jurisdictions where we do not have carryback potential and/or cannot sufficiently forecast future taxable income, we recognized net cumulative valuation allowances against our state deferred tax assets of $32.2 million as of January 31, 2017 and October 31, 2016.

At January 31, 2017, we had $25.8 million of gross unrecognized tax benefits, including interest and penalties. If these unrecognized tax benefits were to reverse in the future, they would have a beneficial impact on our effective tax rate at that time. During the next 12 months, it is reasonably possible that our unrecognized tax benefits will change, but we are not able to provide a range of such change. The possible changes would be principally due to the expiration of tax statutes, settlements with taxing jurisdictions, increases due to new tax positions taken, and the accrual of estimated interest and penalties.

8. Stock-Based Benefit Plans

We grant stock options and various types of restricted stock units to our employees and our nonemployee directors. Additionally, we have an employee stock purchase plan that allows employees to purchase our stock at a discount.

Information regarding the amount of total stock-based compensation expense and tax benefit recognized by us, for the periods indicated, is as follows (amounts in thousands):



	Three months ended January 31,
	2017		2016
Total stock-based compensation expense recognized	$	9,329	$	9,223
Income tax benefit recognized	$	3,653	$	3,555

At January 31, 2017 and October 31, 2016, the aggregate unamortized value of outstanding stock-based compensation awards was approximately $43.6 million and $27.0 million, respectively.

9. Stock Repurchase Program

On May 23, 2016, our Board of Directors terminated a prior share repurchase program and authorized, under a new repurchase program, the repurchase of 20 million shares of our common stock in open market transactions or otherwise for general

corporate purposes, including to obtain shares for the Company’s equity award and other employee benefit plans. The Board of Directors did not fix any expiration date for this repurchase program.

At the end of the reporting period, we determine the fair value of our mortgage loans held for sale and the forward loan commitments we have entered into as a hedge against the interest rate risk of our mortgage loans and commitments using the market approach to determine fair value.

The table below provides, as of the dates indicated, the aggregate unpaid principal and fair value of mortgage loans held for sale (amounts in thousands):



	Aggregate unpaid principal balance		Fair value		Excess/(Deficit)
At January 31, 2017	$	86,122	$	85,765	$	(357	)
At October 31, 2016	$	246,794	$	248,601	$	1,807

Inventory

We recognize inventory impairment charges based on the difference in the carrying value of the inventory and its fair value at the time of the evaluation. The fair value of the aforementioned inventory was determined using Level 3 criteria. See Note 1, “Significant Accounting Policies – Inventory,” in our 2016 Form 10-K for information regarding our methodology for determining fair value. The table below summarizes, for the periods indicated, the ranges of certain quantitative unobservable inputs utilized in determining the fair value of impaired operating communities:



Three months ended:	Selling price per unit ($ in thousands)	Sales pace per year (in units)	Discount rate
Fiscal 2017:
January 31	692 - 880	4 - 12	16.3%

Fiscal 2016:
January 31	—	—	—
April 30	369 - 394	18 - 23	16.3%
July 31	—	—	—
October 31	—	—	—

The table below provides, for the periods indicated, the fair value of operating communities whose carrying value was adjusted and the amount of impairment charges recognized ($ amounts in thousands):

13. Commitments and Contingencies

Legal Proceedings

We are involved in various claims and litigation arising principally in the ordinary course of business. We believe that adequate provision for resolution of all current claims and pending litigation has been made for probable losses. We believe that the disposition of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and liquidity or on our financial condition.

Investments in Unconsolidated Entities

At January 31, 2017, we had investments in a number of unconsolidated entities, were committed to invest or advance additional funds, and had guaranteed a portion of the indebtedness and/or loan commitments of these entities. See Note 3, “Investments in Unconsolidated Entities,” for more information regarding our commitments to these entities.

Land Purchase Commitments

Generally, our purchase agreements to acquire land parcels do not require us to purchase those land parcels, although we, in some cases, forfeit any deposit balance outstanding if and when we terminate a purchase agreement. Information regarding our land purchase commitments, as of the dates indicated, is provided in the table below (amounts in thousands):



	January 31, 2017		October 31, 2016
Aggregate purchase commitments:
Unrelated parties	$	1,388,618	$	1,544,185
Unconsolidated entities that the Company has investments in	54,226		79,204

In addition, we expect to purchase approximately 3,600 additional home sites over a number of years from several joint ventures in which we have interests; the purchase prices of these home sites will be determined at a future date.

At January 31, 2017, we also had purchase commitments to acquire land for apartment developments of approximately $84.3 million, of which we had outstanding deposits in the amount of $4.4 million.

We have additional land parcels under option that have been excluded from the aforementioned aggregate purchase amounts since we do not believe that we will complete the purchase of these land parcels and no additional funds will be required from us to terminate these contracts.

Surety Bonds and Letters of Credit

At January 31, 2017, we had outstanding surety bonds amounting to $667.1 million, primarily related to our obligations to governmental entities to construct improvements in our communities. We estimate that $345.4 million of work remains on these improvements. We have an additional $137.7 million of surety bonds outstanding that guarantee other obligations. We do not believe that it is probable that any outstanding bonds will be drawn upon.

At January 31, 2017, we had outstanding letters of credit of $112.4 million under our New Credit Facility. These letters of credit were issued to secure our various financial obligations, including insurance policy deductibles and other claims, land deposits, and security to complete improvements in communities in which we are operating. We do not believe that it is probable that any outstanding letters of credit will be drawn upon.

Backlog

At January 31, 2017, we had agreements of sale outstanding to deliver 5,145 homes with an aggregate sales value of $4.35 billion.

16. Supplemental Guarantor Information

At January 31, 2017, our 100%-owned subsidiary, Toll Brothers Finance Corp. (the “Subsidiary Issuer”), has issued the following outstanding Senior Notes (amounts in thousands):



	Original amount issued and amount outstanding
8.91% Senior Notes due 2017	$	400,000
4.0% Senior Notes due 2018	$	350,000
6.75% Senior Notes due 2019	$	250,000
5.875% Senior Notes due 2022	$	419,876
4.375% Senior Notes due 2023	$	400,000
5.625% Senior Notes due 2024	$	250,000
4.875% Senior Notes due 2025	$	350,000
0.5% Exchangeable Senior Notes due 2032	$	287,500

The obligations of the Subsidiary Issuer to pay principal, premiums, if any, and interest are guaranteed jointly and severally on a senior basis by us and substantially all of our 100%-owned home building subsidiaries (the “Guarantor Subsidiaries”). The guarantees are full and unconditional. Our non-home building subsidiaries and several of our home building subsidiaries (together, the “Nonguarantor Subsidiaries”) do not guarantee these Senior Notes. The Subsidiary Issuer generates no operating revenues and does not have any independent operations other than the financing of our other subsidiaries by lending the proceeds from the above-described debt issuances. The indentures under which the Senior Notes were issued provide that any of our subsidiaries that provide a guarantee of our obligations under the New Credit Facility will guarantee the Senior Notes. The indentures further provide that any Guarantor Subsidiary may be released from its guarantee so long as (i) no default or event of default exists or would result from release of such guarantee; (ii) the Guarantor Subsidiary being released has consolidated net worth of less than 5% of the Company’s consolidated net worth as of the end of our most recent fiscal quarter; (iii) the Guarantor Subsidiaries released from their guarantees in any fiscal year comprise in the aggregate less than 10% (or 15% if and to the extent necessary to permit the cure of a default) of our consolidated net worth as of the end of our most recent fiscal quarter; (iv) such release would not have a material adverse effect on our and our subsidiaries’ home building business; and (v) the Guarantor Subsidiary is released from its guaranty under the New Credit Facility. If there are no guarantors under the New Credit Facility, all Guarantor Subsidiaries under the indentures will be released from their guarantees.

During the preparation of this Form 10-Q, we identified an immaterial revision that was necessary to certain columns in the consolidating statements for the year ended October 31, 2016. The revision impacted the Guarantor and Nonguarantor Subsidiaries columns in the Consolidating Statement of Operations and Comprehensive Income for the year ended October 31, 2016 and the Nonguarantor Subsidiaries and Eliminations columns in the Condensed Consolidating Balance Sheet as of October 31, 2016, by offsetting amounts. Corresponding changes to the Consolidating Statement of Cash Flows for the year ended October 31, 2016 were also made. The revision had no impact on any consolidated totals of such consolidating statements.

Accordingly, the Consolidating Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income and of Cash Flows for the year ended October 31, 2016 and the Condensed Consolidating Balance Sheet as of October 31, 2016 have been revised to reflect the immaterial adjustment described above and are included hereunder.

Separate financial statements and other disclosures concerning the Guarantor Subsidiaries are not presented because management has determined that such disclosures would not be material to investors.

Supplemental consolidating financial information of Toll Brothers, Inc., the Subsidiary Issuer, the Guarantor Subsidiaries, the Nonguarantor Subsidiaries, and the eliminations to arrive at Toll Brothers, Inc. on a consolidated basis is presented below ($ amounts in thousands).

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (“MD&A”)

This discussion and analysis is based on, should be read together with, and is qualified in its entirety by, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes, as well as our consolidated financial statements, notes thereto, and the related MD&A contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2016 (“2016 Form 10-K”). It also should be read in conjunction with the disclosure under “Statement on Forward-Looking Information” in this report.

Unless otherwise stated, net contracts signed represents a number or value equal to the gross number or value of contracts signed during the relevant period, less the number or value of contracts canceled during the relevant period, which includes contracts that were signed during the relevant period and in prior periods. Backlog consists of homes under contract but not yet delivered to our home buyers.

OVERVIEW

Financial and Operational Highlights

In the three-month period ended January 31, 2017, we recognized $920.7 million of revenues and net income of $70.4 million, as compared to $928.6 million of revenues and net income of $73.2 million in the three-month period ended January 31, 2016.

In the three-month periods ended January 31, 2017 and 2016, the value of net contracts signed was $1.24 billion (1,522 homes) and $1.09 billion (1,250 homes), respectively.

The value of our backlog at January 31, 2017 was $4.35 billion (5,145 homes), as compared to our backlog at January 31, 2016 of $3.66 billion (4,251 homes). Our backlog at October 31, 2016 was $3.98 billion (4,685 homes).

At January 31, 2017, we had $373.5 million of cash and cash equivalents on hand and approximately $932.6 million available under our $1.295 billion revolving credit facility (the “New Credit Facility”) that matures in May 2021. At January 31, 2017, we had $250.0 million of outstanding borrowings and outstanding letters of credit of approximately $112.4 million under the New Credit Facility.

At January 31, 2017, we owned or controlled through options approximately 47,800 home sites, as compared to approximately 43,800 at January 31, 2016; 48,800 at October 31, 2016; and 44,300 at October 31, 2015. Of the approximately 47,800 total home sites that we owned or controlled through options at January 31, 2017, we owned approximately 33,800 and controlled approximately 14,000 through options. Of the 47,800 home sites owned or controlled through options, approximately 18,600 were substantially improved. In addition, at January 31, 2017, we expect to purchase approximately 3,600 additional home sites over a number of years from several joint ventures in which we have interests, at prices not yet determined.

At January 31, 2017, we were selling from 321 communities, compared to 291 at January 31, 2016; 310 at October 31, 2016; and 288 at October 31, 2015.

At January 31, 2017, our total stockholders’ equity and our debt to total capitalization ratio were $4.32 billion and 0.46 to 1.00, respectively.

Our Business Environment and Current Outlook

The current housing market continues to strengthen and grow. Since the third quarter of fiscal 2014 through January 31, 2017, the end of our first quarter of fiscal 2017, we saw a general strengthening in customer demand. In the three-month period ended January 31, 2017, we signed 1,522 contracts with an aggregate value of $1.24 billion, compared to 1,250 contracts with an aggregate value of $1.09 billion in the comparable period of fiscal 2016. In fiscal 2016, we signed 6,719 contracts with an aggregate value of $5.65 billion, compared to 5,910 contracts with an aggregate value of $4.96 billion in fiscal 2015, and 5,271 contracts with an aggregate value of $3.90 billion in fiscal 2014.

Total housing starts in the United States rose in 2016 to approximately 1.2 million, the highest level since 2007. Housing starts, which encompass the units needed for household formations, second homes, and the replacement of obsolete or demolished units, have not kept pace with this projected household growth. According to the Census Bureau’s January 2017 New Residential Sales Report, new home inventory stands at a supply of just 5.8 months, based on current sales paces. If demand

and pace increase significantly, the supply of 5.8 months could quickly be depleted. According to the Census Bureau, during the period 1970 through 2007, total housing starts in the United States averaged approximately 1.6 million per year, while during the period 2008 through 2016, total housing starts averaged approximately 0.85 million per year. In addition, according to Harvard University’s 2016 report, “The State of the Nation’s Housing,” demographic forces are likely to drive the addition of approximately 1.3 million new households per year during the next decade.

We believe that, as the national economy continues to improve and as the millennial generation comes of age, pent-up demand for homes will continue to be released.

We believe that the demographics of the move-up, empty-nester, active-adult/age-qualified, and second-home upscale markets will provide us with an opportunity for growth in the future, and that our financial strength and portfolio of approved home sites give us a competitive advantage. We continue to believe that many of our communities are in desirable locations that are difficult to replace and that many of these communities have substantial embedded value that may be realized in the future as the housing recovery strengthens.

Revenues and Cost of Revenues

The decrease in revenues for the three months ended January 31, 2017, as compared to the three months ended January 31, 2016, was primarily attributable to an 11% decrease in the average price of the homes delivered due to a decrease in the number of homes delivered in the metro New York City market, where average prices were higher, offset, in part, by a 12% increase in the number of homes delivered primarily due to a higher backlog at October 31, 2016, as compared to October 31, 2015. The increase in cost of revenues as a percentage of revenues in the three months ended January 31, 2017 was due primarily to fewer closings in our City Living buildings where margins are higher, the impact of purchase accounting for the homes sold from the Coleman acquisition, and an increase in inventory impairment and write-offs in the fiscal 2017 period, as compared to the fiscal 2016 period. This increase was partially offset by lower interest expense. In the fiscal 2017 and fiscal 2016 periods, interest expense as a percentage of revenues was 3.0% and 3.4%, respectively, and we recognized inventory impairments and write-offs of $4.7 million and $1.3 million, respectively.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses (“SG&A”)

SG&A spending increased by $15.3 million in the three-month period ended January 31, 2017, as compared to the three-month period ended January 31, 2016. As a percentage of revenues, SG&A increased to 14.9% in the fiscal 2017 period, from 13.1% in the fiscal 2016 period. The increase in SG&A as a percentage of revenues in the fiscal 2017 period was due to SG&A spending increasing by 13% while revenues decreased 1% from the fiscal 2016 period. The dollar increase in SG&A was due primarily to increased compensation costs due to a higher number of employees and increased sales and marketing costs. The higher sales and marketing costs were the result of the increased spending on advertising, model operating costs, and commissions. The increased number of employees was due primarily to the increase in the number of operating communities that we had in the fiscal 2017 period, as compared to the fiscal 2016 period.

Income from Unconsolidated Entities

We recognize our proportionate share of the earnings and losses from the various unconsolidated entities in which we have an investment. Some of our unconsolidated entities are land development projects or high-rise/mid-rise condominium construction projects, which do not generate revenues and earnings for a number of years during the development of the property. Once development is complete, these unconsolidated entities will generally, over a relatively short period of time, generate revenues and earnings until all of the assets of the entity are sold. Because there is not a steady flow of revenues and earnings from these entities, the earnings recognized from these entities may vary significantly from quarter to quarter and year to year.

The increase in income from unconsolidated entities for the three-month period ended January 31, 2017, as compared to the three-month period ended January 31, 2016, was due mainly to higher income from two of our Home Building Joint Ventures located in New York City and a $6.2 million gain recognized related to the sale of 50% of our ownership interests in one of our Rental Property Joint Ventures located in the suburbs of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.

Other Income – Net

The table below provides, for the periods indicated, the components of “Other income – net” (amounts in thousands):



	Three months ended January 31,
	2017			2016
Income from ancillary businesses	$	2,297		$	3,729
Gibraltar	(62		)	828
Management fee income from unconsolidated entities	4,289			2,107
Income from land sales	3,559			3,998
Other	2,620			3,058
Total other income – net	$	12,703		$	13,720

In the three months ended January 31, 2016, our security monitoring business recognized a gain of $1.6 million related to a bulk sale of security monitoring accounts in fiscal 2015, which is included in income from ancillary businesses above. The increase in management fee income from unconsolidated entities in the fiscal 2017 period, as compared to the fiscal 2016 period, was mainly due to management fees earned on the closing of homes at two of our Home Building Joint Ventures located in New York City, which commenced closing homes in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2016.

Income Before Income Taxes

For the three-month period ended January 31, 2017, we reported income before income taxes of $109.8 million, as compared to $116.8 million in the three-month period ended January 31, 2016.

Income Tax Provision

We recognized an income tax provision of $39.4 million in the three-month period ended January 31, 2017. Based upon the federal statutory rate of 35%, our federal tax provision would have been $38.4 million. The difference between the tax provision recognized and the tax provision based on the federal statutory rate was mainly due to the provision for state income taxes and interest accrued on anticipated tax assessments, partially offset by tax benefits related to the utilization of domestic production activities deductions and other differences.

In the three-month period ended January 31, 2016, we recognized $43.6 million of income tax provision. Based upon the federal statutory rate of 35%, our federal tax provision would have been $40.9 million in the three-month period ended January 31, 2016. The difference between the tax provision recognized and the tax provision based on the federal statutory rate was due primarily to the provision for state income taxes and interest accrued on anticipated tax assessments, offset by tax benefits related to the utilization of domestic production activities deductions and other permanent differences.

Contracts

The aggregate value of net contracts signed increased $156.0 million, or 14%, in the three-month period ended January 31, 2017, as compared to the prior year period. In the three-month periods ended January 31, 2017 and 2016, the value of net contracts signed was $1.24 billion (1,522 homes) and $1.09 billion (1,250 homes), respectively. The increase in the aggregate value of net contracts signed in the fiscal 2017 period, as compared to the fiscal 2016 period, was the result of a 22% increase in the number of net contracts signed, offset, in part, by a 6% decrease in the average value of each contract signed. The increase in the number of net contracts signed was the result of increased demand and to an increase in the number of selling communities in the fiscal 2017 period, as compared to the fiscal 2016 period. The decline in average price in the first quarter of fiscal 2017, as compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2017, was primarily due to the inclusion of the sale of 60 homes from Coleman in the 2017 period at an average selling price of $341,000, a decrease in the number of contracts signed in our City Living division, and an increase in the number of multi-family product contracts, primarily in the North and Mid-Atlantic regions, which generally are a lower priced product.

Backlog

The increase in the value of our backlog at January 31, 2017, as compared to the backlog at January 31, 2016, was primarily attributable to the 14% higher value of backlog at October 31, 2016, as compared to the backlog at October 31, 2015, and the 14% increase in the value of net contracts signed in the three-month period ended January 31, 2017, as compared to the value of net contracts signed in the three-month period ended January 31, 2016.

The value of our backlog at January 31, 2017 increased 19% to $4.35 billion (5,145 homes), as compared to our backlog at January 31, 2016 of $3.66 billion (4,251 homes). Our backlog at October 31, 2016 and 2015 was $3.98 billion (4,685 homes) and $3.50 billion (4,064 homes), respectively.

CAPITAL RESOURCES AND LIQUIDITY

Funding for our business has been, and continues to be, provided principally by cash flow from operating activities before inventory additions, unsecured bank borrowings, and the public debt and equity markets. At January 31, 2017, we had $373.5 million of cash and cash equivalents. At October 31, 2016, we had $633.7 million of cash and cash equivalents. Cash provided by operating activities during the three-month period ended January 31, 2017 was $42.0 million. Cash provided by operating activities during the fiscal 2017 period was primarily related to net income before stock-based compensation, inventory impairments, and depreciation and amortization; an increase in mortgage loans sold, net of mortgage loans originated; decreases in restricted cash and investments; and an increase in customer deposits; offset, in part, by an increase in inventory; and decreases in accounts payable, accrued expenses, and income taxes payable.

In the three-month period ended January 31, 2017, cash used in investing activities was $156.6 million. Cash used in investing activities was primarily related to $99.9 million used to fund our investments in unconsolidated entities, $85.2 million to used to acquire Coleman, and $6.3 million for the purchase of property and equipment. This was offset, in part, by $35.1 million of cash received as returns on our investments in unconsolidated entities, foreclosed real estate, and distressed loans.

We used $145.6 million of cash from financing activities in the three-month period ended January 31, 2017 primarily for the repayment of $156.5 million of loans payable, net of repayments and the repurchase of $15.2 million of our common stock, offset, in part, by the proceeds of $25.8 million from our stock-based benefit plans.

At January 31, 2016, we had $336.2 million of cash and cash equivalents. At October 31, 2015, we had $919.0 million of cash and cash equivalents and $10.0 million of marketable securities. Cash used in operating activities during the three-month period

ended January 31, 2016, was $23.2 million. Cash used in operating activities during the fiscal 2016 period was primarily related to the purchase of inventory and increases in restricted cash and receivables, prepaid expenses, and other assets, offset, in part, by net income before stock-based compensation, inventory impairments, and depreciation and amortization; the sale of mortgage loans to outside investors, net of mortgage loans originated; an increase in customer deposits; an increase in accounts payable and accrued expenses; and an increase in income taxes payable.

In the three-month period ended January 31, 2016, cash provided by investing activities was $16.0 million. The cash provided by investing activities was primarily related to $20.1 million of cash received as returns on our investments in unconsolidated entities, foreclosed real estate, and distressed loans and $10.0 million of proceeds from the sale of marketable securities. This was offset, in part, by $12.5 million used to fund our investments in unconsolidated entities, foreclosed real estate, and distressed loans, and $1.6 million for the purchase of property and equipment.

We used $575.5 million of cash from financing activities in the three-month period ended January 31, 2016 primarily for the repayment of $430.7 million of loans payable, net of new borrowings and the repurchase of $150.1 million of our common stock, offset, in part, by proceeds of $4.8 million from our stock-based benefit plans. Subsequent to January 31, 2016, we repurchased approximately 2.0 million additional shares of our common stock.

In general, our cash flow from operating activities assumes that, as each home is delivered, we will purchase a home site to replace it. Because we own a supply of several years of home sites, we do not need to buy home sites immediately to replace those that we deliver. In addition, we generally do not begin construction of our detached homes until we have a signed contract with the home buyer, although in the past several years, due to the increase in the number of attached-home communities from which we were operating (all of the units of which are generally not sold before the commencement of construction), the number of speculative homes in our inventory increased significantly. Should our business remain at its current level or decline, we believe that our inventory levels would decrease as we complete and deliver the homes under construction but do not commence construction of as many new homes, as we complete the improvements on the land we already own, and as we sell and deliver the speculative homes that are currently in inventory, resulting in additional cash flow from operations. In addition, we might delay, decrease, or curtail our acquisition of additional land, as we did during the period from April 2006 through January 2010, which would further reduce our inventory levels and cash needs. At January 31, 2017, we owned or controlled through options approximately 47,800 home sites, of which we owned approximately 33,800. Of our owned home sites at January 31, 2017, significant improvements were completed on approximately 18,600 of them.

At January 31, 2017, the aggregate purchase price of land parcels under option and purchase agreements was approximately $1.44 billion (including $54.2 million of land to be acquired from joint ventures in which we have invested). Of the $1.44 billion of land purchase commitments, we paid or deposited $70.5 million, and, if we acquire all of these land parcels, we will be required to pay an additional $1.37 billion. The purchases of these land parcels are scheduled to occur over the next several years. In addition, we expect to purchase approximately 3,600 additional home sites over a number of years from several joint ventures in which we have interests. We have additional land parcels under option that have been excluded from the aforementioned aggregate purchase amounts since we do not believe that we will complete the purchase of these land parcels and no additional funds will be required from us to terminate these contracts.

On August 1, 2013, we entered into a $1.035 billion revolving credit facility (the “Credit Facility”) that was scheduled to terminate on August 1, 2018. On May 19, 2016, we entered into a new $1.215 billion (subsequently increased to $1.295 billion), unsecured, five-year revolving credit facility (the “New Credit Facility”) and terminated the Credit Facility. Under the terms of the New Credit Facility, our maximum leverage ratio (as defined in the credit agreement) may not exceed 1.75 to 1.00, and we are required to maintain a minimum tangible net worth (as defined in the credit agreement) of no less than approximately $2.64 billion. Under the terms of the New Credit Facility, at January 31, 2017, our leverage ratio was approximately 0.79 to 1.00, and our tangible net worth was approximately $4.28 billion. Based upon the minimum tangible net worth requirement in the New Credit Facility, our ability to repurchase our common stock was limited to approximately $2.34 billion as of January 31, 2017. At January 31, 2017, we had $250.0 million outstanding borrowings under our New Credit Facility and had outstanding letters of credit of approximately $112.4 million under it. Subsequent to January 31, 2017, we borrowed an additional $125.0 million under the New Credit Facility.

We believe that we will have adequate resources and sufficient access to the capital markets and external financing sources to continue to fund our current operations and meet our contractual obligations. Due to the uncertainties in the economy and for home builders in general, we cannot be certain that we will be able to replace existing financing or find sources of additional financing in the future.

OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

We have investments in Land Development Joint Ventures; Home Building Joint Ventures; Rental Property Joint Ventures; and Gibraltar Joint Ventures.

Our investments in these entities are accounted for using the equity method of accounting. We are a party to several joint ventures with unrelated parties to develop and sell land that is owned by the joint ventures. We recognize our proportionate share of the earnings from the sale of home sites to other builders, including our joint venture partners. We do not recognize earnings from the home sites we purchase from these ventures at the time of our purchase; instead, our cost basis in the home sites is reduced by our share of the earnings realized by the joint venture from sales of those home sites to us.

At January 31, 2017, we had investments in these entities of $601.7 million and were committed to invest or advance up to an additional $65.6 million to these entities if they require additional funding. At January 31, 2017, we had agreed to terms for the acquisition of 138 home sites from two Land Development Joint Ventures for an estimated aggregate purchase price of $54.2 million. In addition, we expect to purchase approximately 3,600 additional home sites over a number of years from several joint ventures in which we have interests; the purchase price of these home sites will be determined at a future date.

In some instances, the guarantees provided in connection with loans to an unconsolidated entity are joint and several. In these situations, we generally have a reimbursement agreement with our partner that provides that neither party is responsible for more than its proportionate share or agreed-upon share of the guarantee; however, if the joint venture partner does not have adequate financial resources to meet its obligations under the reimbursement agreement, we may be liable for more than our proportionate share.

We believe that, as of January 31, 2017, in the event we become legally obligated to perform under a guarantee of the obligation of an unconsolidated entity due to a triggering event, the collateral in such entity should be sufficient to repay all or a significant portion of the obligation. If it is not, we and our partners would need to contribute additional capital to the venture. At January 31, 2017, we have guaranteed the debt of certain unconsolidated entities aggregating $1.25 billion, of which we estimate $206.5 million to be our maximum exposure related to repayment and carry cost guarantees. At January 31, 2017, the unconsolidated entities had borrowed an aggregate of $747.7 million, of which we estimate $147.0 million to be our maximum exposure related to repayment and carry cost guarantees. The terms of these guarantees generally range from 3 months to 46 months. These maximum exposure estimates do not take into account any recoveries from the underlying collateral or any reimbursement from our partners.

In addition, we have guaranteed approximately $4.0 million of ground lease payments and insurance deductibles for three joint ventures.

For more information regarding these joint ventures, see Note 3, “Investments in Unconsolidated Entities,” in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in this Form 10-Q.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

As disclosed in our 2016 Form 10-K, our most critical accounting policies relate to inventory, income taxes–valuation allowances, revenue and cost recognition, and warranty and self-insurance. Since October 31, 2016, there have been no material changes to those critical accounting policies.

The 16% increase in the number of homes delivered in the fiscal 2017 period, as compared to the fiscal 2016 period, was mainly due to increases in the number of homes closed in Illinois, New Jersey, and Massachusetts, partially offset by a decrease in the number of homes closed in New York. The increase in the number of homes closed in Illinois and Massachusetts was primarily due to a higher percentage of home closings from beginning backlog (“backlog conversion”) in the fiscal 2017 period, as compared to the fiscal 2016 period. In New Jersey, the increase was principally due to an increase in the number of homes in backlog as of October 31, 2016, as compared to the number of homes in backlog at October 31, 2015. The increase in the average price of homes delivered in the fiscal 2017 period, as compared to the fiscal 2016 period, was primarily due to a shift in the number of homes delivered to more expensive areas and/or products and increased selling prices of the homes delivered.

The increase in the number of net contracts signed in the fiscal 2017 period, as compared to the fiscal 2016 period, was principally attributable to an increase in demand in Connecticut, Michigan and New Jersey, offset, in part, by a decrease in the number of selling communities in New Jersey. The decrease in the average value of each contract signed in the fiscal 2017 period, as compared to the fiscal 2016 period, was mainly due to a shift in the number of contracts signed to less expensive areas and/or products, particularly in Michigan where we saw a significant increase in townhome contracts.

The 26% increase in income before income taxes in the fiscal 2017 period, as compared to the fiscal 2016 period, was principally attributable to higher earnings from increased revenues, offset, in part, by higher SG&A costs.

The increase in the number of homes delivered in the fiscal 2017 period, as compared to the fiscal 2016 period, was mainly due to an increase in the number of homes closed in Pennsylvania which was attributable to an increase in the number of homes in backlog as of October 31, 2016, as compared to the number of homes in backlog at October 31, 2015. The increase in the number of net contracts signed was principally due to increases in demand and in selling communities in Pennsylvania and Maryland.

The decrease in income before income taxes in the fiscal 2017 period, as compared to the fiscal 2016 period, was mainly due to higher inventory impairment charges and SG&A costs, offset, in part, by higher earnings from increased revenues. In the three months ended January 31, 2017, inventory impairment charges were $4.3 million, as compared to $9,000 in the three months ended January 31, 2016. During the first quarter of fiscal 2017, during our review of operating communities for impairment, primarily due to a lack of improvement and/or a decrease in customer demand as a result of weaker than expected market conditions, we determined that the pricing assumptions used in prior impairment reviews for one operating community located in Maryland needed to be reduced. As a result of this reduction in expected sales prices, we determined that this community was impaired. Accordingly, the carrying value of this community was written down to its estimated fair value resulting in a charge to income before taxes of $3.9 million.

The increase in the number of net contracts signed in the fiscal 2017 period, as compared to the fiscal 2016 period, was mainly due to increased demand in North Carolina and an increase in the number of selling communities in North Carolina and Texas. The decrease in the average value of each contract signed in the fiscal 2017 period, as compared to the fiscal 2016 period, was mainly due to a shift in the number of contracts signed to less expensive areas and/or products.

The decrease in income before income taxes in the fiscal 2017 period, as compared to the fiscal 2016 period, was principally due to higher SG&A costs, higher cost of revenues as a percentage of revenues, and a $2.9 million decrease in earnings from lower land sales in Texas. The increase in cost of revenues, as a percentage of revenues, was primarily due to a shift in the number of homes delivered to lower-margin products and/or locations.

The increase in the number of homes delivered in the fiscal 2017 period, as compared to the fiscal 2016 period, was mainly due to an increase in the number of homes in backlog at October 31, 2016, as compared to the number of homes in backlog at

October 31, 2015 and the delivery of 74 homes in the period from our Coleman acquisition. The decrease in the average delivered price of homes delivered was primarily due to our acquisition of Coleman, where the average price of homes delivered in the fiscal 2017 period was $296,100. Excluding the Coleman closings, the average price of homes delivered in the fiscal 2017 period increased 7%, as compared to the fiscal 2016 period. The increase in the average price of homes delivered, excluding Coleman closings, was mainly due to a shift in the number of contracts signed to more expensive areas and/or products.

The increase in the value and number of net contracts signed in the fiscal 2017 period, as compared the fiscal 2016 period, was principally due to the 60 contracts we signed during the fiscal 2017 period at Coleman communities.

The increase in income before income taxes in the fiscal 2017 period, as compared the fiscal 2016 period, was due mainly to higher earnings from the increased revenues, partially offset by higher SG&A costs, higher cost of revenues, as a percentage of revenues, and a $2.9 million recovery in the fiscal 2016 period of previously incurred charges related to a Land Development Joint Venture. The increase in cost of revenues, as a percentage of revenues, was primarily due to the impact of purchase accounting for the homes sold from the Coleman acquisition inventory and a shift in the number of homes delivered to lower-margin products and/or locations.

The increase in the average price of homes delivered in the fiscal 2017 period, as compared to the fiscal 2016 period, was primarily due to a shift in the number of homes delivered to more expensive areas and/or products.

The 40% increase in the number of net contracts signed in the fiscal 2017 period, as compared the fiscal 2016 period, was due mainly to an increase in demand and an increase in the number of selling communities in our southern California market. The decrease in the average sales price of net contracts signed was principally due to a shift in the number of contracts signed to less expensive areas and/or products.

The decrease in income before income taxes in the fiscal 2017 period, as compared to the fiscal 2016 period, was due mainly to higher SG&A costs, offset, in part, by higher earnings from our investment in unconsolidated entities.

The decrease in the number of homes delivered in the fiscal 2017 period, as compared to the fiscal 2016 period, was principally due to a decrease in closings at 400 Park Avenue South where there are less available units and at 410 at Society Hill which sold out in fiscal 2016. The increase in the average price of homes delivered in the fiscal 2017 period, as compared to the fiscal 2016 period, was primarily due to a shift in the number of homes delivered from the Philadelphia, Pennsylvania market to the metro New York City market, where average selling prices were higher.

The decrease in the number of net contracts signed in the fiscal 2017 period, as compared to the fiscal 2016 period, was mainly due to strong sales in the first quarter of fiscal 2016 at one of our buildings located in Hoboken, New Jersey, which opened in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2015, which initially benefited from pent up demand. The increase in the average sales price of net contracts signed was principally due to a shift to more expensive areas and/or products.

The decrease in income before income taxes in the fiscal 2017 period, as compared to the fiscal 2016 period, was mainly due to lower earnings from decreased revenues, offset, in part, by a $34.7 million increase in earnings from our investments in unconsolidated entities and $3.1 million recognized of previously deferred gains. In the three months ended January 31, 2017 and 2016, we recognized $34.5 million in earnings from our investments in unconsolidated entities, as compared to a loss of $0.2 million in the three months ended January 31, 2016. The tables below provide information related to deliveries and revenues and net contracts signed by our joint ventures, for the periods indicated, and the related backlog for the dates indicated ($ amounts in millions):

	Three months ended January 31,
	2017			2016			Change
Loss before income taxes ($ in millions)	$	(36.8	)	$	(36.4	)	1	%

The 1% increase in the loss before income taxes in the fiscal 2017 period, as compared to the fiscal 2016 period, was principally attributable to higher SG&A costs and a gain of $1.6 million recognized in the fiscal 2016 period, from a bulk sale of security monitoring accounts by our home security monitoring business in fiscal 2015. The increase in SG&A costs was due primarily to increased compensation costs due to our increased number of employees. These increases to the loss before income taxes were partially offset by our recognition in the fiscal 2017 period of a $6.2 million gain related to the sale of 50% of our ownership interests in one of our Rental Property Joint Ventures located in the suburbs of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

We are exposed to market risk primarily due to fluctuations in interest rates. We utilize both fixed-rate and variable-rate debt. For fixed-rate debt, changes in interest rates generally affect the fair market value of the debt instrument, but not our earnings or cash flow. Conversely, for variable-rate debt, changes in interest rates generally do not impact the fair value of the debt instrument, but do affect our earnings and cash flow. We do not have the obligation to prepay fixed-rate debt before maturity, and, as a result, interest rate risk and changes in fair value should not have a significant impact on our fixed-rate debt until we are required or elect to refinance it.

The table below sets forth, at January 31, 2017, our debt obligations by scheduled maturity, weighted-average interest rates, and estimated fair value (amounts in thousands):



	Fixed-rate debt				Variable-rate debt (a)
Fiscal year of maturity	Amount			Weighted- average interest rate	Amount			Weighted- average interest rate
2017	$	436,410		8.49%	$	57,040		2.78%
2018	308,854			0.72%	150			0.88%
2019	370,482			3.98%	150			0.88%
2020	253,815			6.72%	150			0.88%
2021	1,762			5.95%	750,150			2.13%
Thereafter (b)	1,453,780			5.17%	13,210			0.79%
Discount and deferred issuance costs	(11,852		)		(1,643		)
Total	$	2,813,251		5.18%	$	819,207		2.15%
Fair value at January 31, 2017	$	2,930,551			$	820,850


(a)	Based upon the amount of variable-rate debt outstanding at January 31, 2017, and holding the variable-rate debt balance constant, each 1% increase in interest rates would increase the interest incurred by us by approximately $8.2 million per year.

(b)

The fixed-rate debt amount for fiscal 2018 includes $287.5 million principal amount of 0.5% Exchangeable Senior Notes (the “0.5% Exchangeable Senior Notes”). The 0.5% Exchangeable Senior Notes are exchangeable into shares of our common stock at an exchange rate of 20.3749 shares per $1,000 principal amount of notes, corresponding to an initial exchange price of approximately $49.08 per share of common stock. Holders of the 0.5% Exchangeable Senior Notes will have the right to require Toll Brothers Finance Corp. to repurchase their notes for cash equal to 100% of their principal amount, plus accrued but unpaid interest, on each of December 15, 2017, September 15, 2022, and September 15, 2027. We will have the right to redeem the 0.5% Exchangeable Senior Notes on or after September 15, 2017, for cash equal to 100% of their principal amount, plus accrued but unpaid interest.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Any controls and procedures, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected; however, our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives.

Our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, with the assistance of management, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, (the “Exchange Act”), as of the end of the period covered by this report (the “Evaluation Date”). Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of the Evaluation Date, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in our reports under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

There has not been any change in our internal control over financial reporting (as that term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during our quarter ended January 31, 2017, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

We are involved in various claims and litigation arising principally in the ordinary course of business. We believe that adequate provision for resolution of all current claims and pending litigation has been made for probable losses and that the disposition of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and liquidity or on our financial condition.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

There have been no material changes in our risk factors as previously disclosed in Part I, Item 1A., “Risk Factors,” in our 2016 Form 10-K.

ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS

ISSUER PURCHASES OF EQUITY SECURITIES

During the three-month period ended January 31, 2017, we repurchased the following shares of our common stock:



Period	Total number of shares purchased (a)	Average price paid per share		Total number of shares purchased as part of publicly announced plans or programs (b)	Maximum number of shares that may yet be purchased under the plans or programs (b)
	(in thousands)			(in thousands)	(in thousands)
November 1, 2016 to November 30, 2016	552	$	27.30	552	15,286
December 1, 2016 to December 31, 2016	2	$	31.06	2	15,284
January 1, 2017 to January 31, 2017	3	$	31.21	3	15,281
Total	557	$	27.33	557

(a)

Our stock incentive plans permit us to withhold from the total number of shares that otherwise would be issued to a performance based restricted stock unit recipient or a restricted stock unit recipient upon distribution that number of shares having a fair value at the time of distribution equal to the applicable income tax withholdings due and remit the remaining shares to the recipient. During the three months ended January 31, 2017, we withheld 152,219 of the shares subject to performance based restricted stock units and restricted stock units to cover $4.8 million of income tax withholdings and we issued the remaining 219,472 shares to the recipients. The shares withheld are not included in the total number of shares purchased in the table above.

Our stock incentive plans also permit participants to exercise non-qualified stock options using a “net exercise” method. In a net exercise, we generally withhold from the total number of shares that otherwise would be issued to the participant upon exercise of the stock option that number of shares having a fair market value at the time of exercise equal to the option exercise price and applicable income tax withholdings, and remit the remaining shares to the participant. During the three-month period ended January 31, 2017, the net exercise method was employed to exercise options to acquire 15,000 shares of our common stock; we withheld 14,472 of the shares subject to the options to cover $477,000 of option exercise costs and income tax withholdings and issued the remaining 528 shares to the participants.The shares withheld in connection with the net exercise method are not included in the total number of shares purchased in the table above.


(b)	On May 23, 2016, our Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of 20 million shares of our common stock in open market transactions or otherwise for general corporate purposes, including to obtain shares for the Company’s equity award and other employee benefit plans. The Board of Directors did not fix any expiration date for this repurchase program.

Except as set forth above, we have not repurchased any of our equity securities during the three-month period ended January 31, 2017.

On February 21, 2017, our Board of Directors approved the initiation of quarterly cash dividends to shareholders. The first quarterly dividend of $0.08 per share will be paid on April 28, 2017 to shareholders of record on the close of business on April 14, 2017.
