STATEMENT
ON FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION
Certain information included herein and in our other reports,
SEC filings, verbal or written statements and presentations is
forward-looking within the meaning of the Private Securities
Litigation Reform Act of 1995, including, but not limited to,
information related to our anticipated operating results,
financial resources, changes in revenues, changes in
profitability, changes in margins, changes in accounting
treatment, interest expense, land related write-downs, effects
of home buyer cancellations, growth and expansion, anticipated
income to be realized from our investments in unconsolidated
entities, the ability to acquire land, the ability to gain
governmental approvals and to open new communities, the ability
to sell homes and properties, the ability to deliver homes from
backlog, the expected average delivered prices of homes, the
ability to secure materials and subcontractors, the ability to
produce the liquidity and capital necessary to expand and take
advantage of future opportunities, and stock market valuations.
In some cases you can identify those so called forward-looking
statements by words such as may, will,
should, expect, plan,
anticipate, believe,
estimate, predict,
potential, project, intend,
can, appear, could,
might, or continue or the negative of
those words or other comparable words. Such forward-looking
information involves important risks and uncertainties that
could significantly affect actual results and cause them to
differ materially from expectations expressed herein and in our
other reports, SEC filings, verbal or written statements and
presentations. These risks and uncertainties include local,
regional and national economic conditions, the demand for homes,
domestic and international political events, uncertainties
created by terrorist attacks, the effects of governmental
regulation, the competitive environment in which we operate,
fluctuations in interest rates, changes in home prices, the
availability and cost of land for future growth, adverse market
conditions that could result in substantial inventory
write-downs, the availability of capital, uncertainties and
fluctuations in capital and securities markets, changes in tax
laws and their interpretation, legal proceedings, the
availability of adequate insurance at reasonable cost, the
ability of customers to finance the purchase of homes, the
availability and cost of labor and materials, and weather
conditions. Additional information concerning potential factors
that we believe could cause our actual results to differ
materially from expected and historical results is included in
Item 1A Risk Factors of our Annual Report on
Form 10-K
for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2006. Moreover, the
financial guidance contained herein related to our expected
results of operations for fiscal 2007 reflects our expectations
as of February 22, 2007 and is not being reconfirmed or
updated by this Quarterly Report on
Form 10-Q.
If one or more of the assumptions underlying our forward-looking
statements proves incorrect, then our actual results,
performance or achievements could differ materially from those
expressed in, or implied by the forward-looking statements
contained in this report. Therefore, we caution you not to place
undue reliance on our forward-looking statements. This statement
is provided as permitted by the Private Securities Litigation
Reform Act of 1995.
When this report uses the words we, us,
and our, they refer to Toll Brothers, Inc. and its
subsidiaries, unless the context otherwise requires.
Reference herein to fiscal 2007, fiscal
2006, and fiscal 2005, refer to our fiscal
year ending October 31, 2007, and our fiscal years ended
October 31, 2006 and October 31, 2005, respectively.

of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial
statements include the accounts of Toll Brothers, Inc. (the
Company), 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 the Company
has effective control of the entity, in which case 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, 2006 balance sheet amounts and disclosures
included herein have been derived from our October 31, 2006
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 for complete financial
statements, the Company suggests that they be read in
conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes
thereto included in its Annual Report on
Form 10-K
for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2006. 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 the
Companys financial position as of January 31, 2007,
and the results of its operations and cash flows for the three
months ended January 31, 2007 and 2006. The results of
operations for such interim periods are not necessarily
indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.
Recent
Accounting Pronouncements
In June 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the
FASB) issued FASB Interpretation No. 48,
Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes
(FIN 48). FIN 48 clarifies the accounting
for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in accordance with
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS)
No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes, and
prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for
the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax
position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return.
FIN 48 will be effective for the Companys fiscal year
beginning November 1, 2007. The Company is currently
reviewing the effect FIN 48 will have on its financial
statements.
In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 158,
Employers Accounting for Defined Benefit Pension and
Other Postretirement Plans, an amendment of FASB Statements
No. 87, 88, 106, and 132(R)
(SFAS 158). SFAS 158 requires the Company
to (a) recognize in its statement of financial position the
overfunded or underfunded status of a defined benefit
postretirement plan measured as the difference between the fair
value of plan assets and the benefit obligation,
(b) recognize as a component of other comprehensive income,
net of tax, the actuarial gains and losses and the prior service
costs and credits that arise during the period, (c) measure
defined benefit plan assets and defined benefit plan obligations
as of the date of the Companys statement of financial
position, and (d) disclose additional information about
certain effects on net periodic benefit costs in the upcoming
fiscal year that arise from the delayed recognition of the
actuarial gains and losses and the prior service costs and
credits. SFAS 158 is effective for the Companys
fiscal year beginning November 1, 2007. The Company does
not expect that adoption of SFAS 158 will have a material
effect on its financial statements.
In September 2006, the Emerging Issues Task Force (the
EITF) of the FASB issued EITF Issue
No. 06-8,
Applicability of the Assessment of a Buyers
Continuing Investment under SFAS No. 66 for the Sale
of Condominiums (EITF
06-8).
EITF
06-8 states
that in assessing the collectibility of the sales price pursuant
to paragraph 37(d) of SFAS 66, an entity should
evaluate the adequacy of the buyers initial and continuing
investment to conclude that the sales price is collectible. If
an entity is unable to meet the criteria of paragraph 37,
including an assessment of collectibility using the initial and
continuing investment tests described in
5
TOLL
BROTHERS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO
CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS (Continued)
paragraphs 8-12
of SFAS 66, then the entity should apply the deposit method
as described in
paragraphs 65-67
of SFAS 66. EITF
06-8 is
effective for the Companys fiscal year beginning
November 1, 2007. In November 2006, the FASB ratified the
EITFs recommendation. The application of the continuing
investment criteria in evaluating the collectibility of the
sales price will limit the Companys ability to recognize
revenues and costs using the percentage of completion accounting
method in the future. The Company does not expect that EITF
06-08 will
affect any revenues or costs it has reported under percentage of
completion accounting in fiscal 2006. The Company does not
expect that the application of EITF
06-08 will
have a material effect on its financial statements.
In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157,
Fair Value Measurements (SFAS 157).
SFAS 157 provides guidance for using fair value to measure
assets and liabilities. The standard also responds to
investors request for expanded information about the
extent to which a company measures assets and liabilities at
fair value, the information used to measure fair value, and the
effect of fair value measurements on earnings. SFAS 157
will be effective for the Companys fiscal year beginning
November 1, 2008. The Company is currently reviewing the
effect SFAS 157 will have on its financial statements.

The Company has evaluated its land purchase contracts to
determine if the selling entity is a variable interest entity
(VIE) and, if it is, whether the Company is the
primary beneficiary of the entity. The Company does not possess
legal title to the land, and its risk is generally limited to
deposits paid to the seller. The creditors of the seller
generally have no recourse against the Company. At
January 31, 2007, the Company had determined that it was
the primary beneficiary of one VIE related to its land purchase
contracts and had recorded $76.1 million as inventory,
$68.6 million as a loan payable and $5.5 million as
accrued liabilities.

Investments
in and Advances to Unconsolidated Entities
|
The Company has investments in and advances to several joint
ventures with unrelated parties to develop land. Some of these
joint ventures develop land for the sole use of the venture
partners, including the Company, and others develop land for
sale to the venture partners and to unrelated builders. The
Company recognizes its share of earnings from the sale of home
sites to other builders. The Company does not recognize earnings
from home sites it purchases from the joint ventures, but
instead reduces its cost basis in these home sites by its share
of the earnings on the home sites. At January 31, 2007, the
Company had approximately $163.3 million invested in or
advanced to these joint ventures and was committed to
contributing additional capital in an aggregate amount of
approximately $228.2 million (net of the Companys
$141.0 million of loan guarantees related to two of the
joint ventures loans) if required by the joint ventures.
At January 31, 2007, three of the joint ventures had an
aggregate of $1.41 billion of loan commitments, and had
approximately $1.15 billion borrowed against the
commitments, of which the Companys guarantee of its
pro-rata share of the borrowings was $112.7 million.
In October 2004, the Company entered into a joint venture in
which it has a 50% interest with an unrelated party to convert a
525-unit
apartment complex, The Hudson Tea Buildings, located in Hoboken,
New Jersey, into luxury condominium units. At January 31,
2007, the Company had investments in and advances to the joint
venture of $52.8 million, and was committed to making up to
$1.5 million of additional investments in and advances to
the joint venture.
The Company has investments in and advances to two joint
ventures with unrelated parties to develop luxury condominium
projects, including for-sale residential units and commercial
space. At January 31, 2007, the Company had investments in
and advances to the joint ventures of $19.4 million, was
committed to making up to $115.5 million of additional
investments in and advances to the joint ventures if required by
the joint ventures, and guaranteed $13.0 million of joint
venture loans. At January 31, 2007, these joint ventures
had an aggregate of $292.6 million of loan commitments and
had approximately $119.8 million borrowed against the
commitments.

In fiscal 2005, the Company, together with the Pennsylvania
State Employees Retirement System (PASERS), formed
Toll Brothers Realty Trust Group II
(Trust II) to be in a position to take
advantage of commercial real estate opportunities. Trust II
is owned 50% by the Company and 50% by PASERS. At
January 31, 2007, the Company had an investment of
$8.9 million in Trust II. In addition, the Company and
PASERS each entered into subscription agreements that expire in
September 2007, whereby each agreed to invest additional capital
in an amount not to exceed $11.1 million if required by
Trust II. Prior to the formation of Trust II, the
Company used Toll Brothers Realty Trust Group (the
Trust) to invest in commercial real estate
opportunities.
To take advantage of commercial real estate opportunities, the
Company formed the Trust in 1998. The Trust is effectively owned
one-third by the Company; one-third by Robert I. Toll, Bruce E.
Toll (and members of his family), Zvi Barzilay (and members of
his family), Joel H. Rassman and other members of the
Companys current and former senior management; and
one-third by PASERS (collectively, the
Shareholders). The Shareholders entered into
subscription agreements whereby each group has agreed to invest
additional capital in an amount not to exceed $1.9 million
if required by the Trust. The subscription agreements expire in
August 2008. At January 31, 2007, the Company had an
investment of $6.6 million in the Trust. The Company
provides development, finance and management services to the
Trust and received fees under the terms of various agreements in
the amounts of $498,000 and $647,000 in the three-month periods
ended January 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively. The Company
believes that the transactions between itself and the Trust were
on terms no less favorable than it would have agreed to with
unrelated parties.
The Companys investments in these entities are accounted
for using the equity method.
During the three-month period ended January 31, 2007, due
to the continued decline of the Detroit market, the Company
re-evaluated the carrying value of goodwill that resulted from a
1999 acquisition in accordance with FASB 142, Goodwill and
Other Intangible Assets. The Company estimated the fair
value of its assets in this market including goodwill. Fair
value was determined based on the discounted future cash flow
expected to be generated in this market. Based upon this
evaluation and the Companys expectation that this market
will not recover for a number of years, the Company has
determined that the related goodwill has been impaired. The
Company recognized a $9.0 million impairment charge in the
three-month period ended January 31, 2007. After
recognizing this charge, the Company does not have any goodwill
remaining from this acquisition.

Employee
Retirement Plan
|
In October 2004, the Company established a defined benefit
retirement plan effective as of September 1, 2004, which
covers four current or former senior executives and a director
of the Company. Effective as of February 1, 2006, the
Company adopted an additional defined benefit retirement plan
for nine other executives. The retirement plans are unfunded and
vest when the participant has completed 20 years of service
with the Company and reaches normal retirement age
(age 62). Unrecognized prior service costs are being
amortized over the period from the effective date of the plans
until the participants are fully vested. The Company used a
5.68% and 5.65% discount rate in its calculation of the present
value of its projected benefit obligations for fiscal 2007 and
2006, respectively, which represented the approximate long-term
investment rate at October 31 of the preceding fiscal year
for which the present value was calculated.
For the three-month periods ended January 31, 2007 and

these plans (amounts in thousands):

Based Benefit Plans

The fair value of each option award is estimated on the date of
grant using a lattice-based option valuation model that uses
assumptions noted in the following table. The lattice-based
option valuation models incorporate ranges of assumptions for
inputs; those ranges are disclosed in the table below. Expected
volatilities are based on implied volatilities from traded
options on the Companys stock, historical volatility of
the Companys stock and other factors. The expected life of
options granted is derived from the historical exercise patterns
and anticipated future patterns and represents the period of
time that options granted are expected to be outstanding; the
range given below results from certain groups of employees
exhibiting different behavior. The risk-free rate for periods
within the contractual life of the option is based on the
U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant.

In the three-month period ended January 31, 2007, the
Company recognized $12.8 million of stock compensation
expense and $4.8 million of income tax benefit related to
stock options awards. In the three-month period ended
January 31, 2006, the Company recognized $11.0 million
of stock compensation expense and $4.0 million of income
tax benefit related to stock options awards.
The Company expects to recognize approximately
$26.7 million of expense and $9.8 million of income
tax benefit for the full fiscal 2007 year related to stock
option awards. The Company recognized approximately
$26.8 million of expense and $9.1 million of income
tax benefit for the full fiscal 2006 year related to stock
option awards.
The Companys stock option plans for employees, officers
and directors provide for the granting of incentive stock
options and non-qualified options with a term of up to ten years
at a price not less than the market price of the stock at the
date of grant. Options granted generally vest over a four-year
period for employees, although for certain grants vesting is
over five years, and grants to non-employee directors which vest
over a two-year period. Shares issued upon the exercise of a
stock option are either from shares held in treasury or newly
issued shares.
Pursuant to the provisions of the Companys stock option
plans, participants are permitted to use the value of the
Companys common stock that they own to pay for the
exercise of options. The Company received 4,172 shares with
an average fair market value per share of $35.43 for the
exercise of stock options in the three months ended
January 31, 2006. No shares were received for the exercise
of stock options in the three months ended January 31, 2007.

In March 2003, the Companys Board of Directors authorized
the repurchase of up to 20 million shares of its Common
Stock, par value $.01, from time to time, in open market
transactions or otherwise, for the purpose of
11

providing shares for its various employee benefit plans. At
January 31, 2007, the Company was authorized to repurchase
approximately 12.1 million shares.

|
Commitments
and Contingencies
|
At January 31, 2007, the aggregate purchase price of land
parcels under option and purchase agreements, excluding parcels
that the Company does not expect to acquire, was approximately
$2.68 billion (including $1.22 billion of land to be
acquired from joint ventures which the Company has investments
in, made advances to or made loan guarantees on behalf of, in
the amount of $162.7 million), of which it had paid or
deposited approximately $161.3 million. The Companys
option agreements to acquire the home sites do not require the
Company to buy the home sites, although the Company may, in some
cases, forfeit any deposit balance outstanding if and when it
terminates an option contract. Of the $161.3 million the
Company had paid or deposited on these purchase agreements,
$124.0 million was non-refundable at January 31, 2007.
Any deposit in the form of a standby letter of credit is
recorded as a liability at the time the standby letter of credit
is issued. Included in accrued liabilities is $76.8 million
representing the Companys outstanding standby letters of
credit issued in connection with options to purchase home sites.
At January 31, 2007, the Company had outstanding surety
bonds amounting to approximately $742.5 million, related
primarily to its obligations to various governmental entities to
construct improvements in the Companys various
communities. The Company estimates that approximately
$271.2 million of work remains on these improvements. The
Company has an additional $132.9 million of surety bonds
outstanding that guarantee other obligations of the Company. The
Company does not believe it is likely that any outstanding bonds
will be drawn upon.
At January 31, 2007, the Company had agreements of sale
outstanding to deliver 5,949 homes with an aggregate sales value
of approximately $4.15 billion, of which the Company has
recognized $166.9 million of revenues using the percentage
of completion accounting method.
At January 31, 2007, the Company was committed to providing
approximately $942.4 million of mortgage loans to its home
buyers and to others. All loans with committed interest rates
are covered by take-out commitments from third-party lenders,
which minimize the Companys interest rate risk.
The Company has a $1.8 billion credit facility consisting
of a $1.5 billion unsecured revolving credit facility and a
$300 million term loan facility (collectively, the
Credit Facility) with 33 banks, which extends to
March 17, 2011. At January 31, 2007, interest was
payable on borrowings under the revolving credit facility at
0.475% (subject to adjustment based upon the Companys debt
rating and leverage ratios) above the Eurodollar rate or at
other specified variable rates as selected by the Company from
time to time. At January 31, 2007, the Company had no
outstanding borrowings against the revolving credit facility but
had letters of credit of approximately $398.5 million
outstanding under it, of which the Company had recorded
$76.8 million as liabilities under land purchase
agreements. Under the term loan facility, interest is payable at
0.50% (subject to adjustment based upon the Companys debt
rating and leverage ratios) above the Eurodollar rate or at
other specified variable rates as selected by the Company from
time to time. At January 31, 2007, interest was payable on
the $300 million term loan at 5.87%. Under the terms of the
Credit Facility, the Company is not permitted to allow its
maximum leverage ratio (as defined in the agreement) to exceed
2.00 to 1.00 and was required to maintain a minimum tangible net
worth (as defined in the agreement) of approximately
$2.36 billion at January 31, 2007. At January 31,
2007, the Companys leverage ratio was approximately 0.56
to 1.00 and its tangible net worth was approximately
$3.47 billion. Based upon the minimum tangible net worth
requirement, the Companys ability to pay dividends and
repurchase its common stock was limited to an aggregate amount
of approximately $1.11 billion at January 31, 2007.
The Company is involved in various claims and litigation arising
in the ordinary course of business. The Company believes that
the disposition of these matters will not have a material effect
on the business or on the financial condition of the Company.

In January 2006, the Company received a request for information
pursuant to Section 308 of the Clean Water Act from Region
3 of the Environmental Protection Agency (the EPA)
requesting information about storm water discharge practices in
connection with our homebuilding projects in the states that
comprise EPA Region 3. To the extent the EPAs review were
to lead the EPA to assert violations of state
and/or
federal regulatory requirements and request injunctive relief
and/or civil
penalties, the Company would defend and attempt to resolve any
such asserted violations. At this time the Company cannot
predict the outcome of the EPAs review.
During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2006, the Company reassessed
the aggregation of its operating segments, and as a result,
restated its disclosure to include four separate reportable
segments. The restatement had no impact on the Companys
financial position, results of operations or cash flows for the
three-month period ended January 31, 2006.

Supplemental
Guarantor Information
|
Toll Brothers Finance Corp., a 100% owned, indirect subsidiary
(the Subsidiary Issuer) of the Company, is the
issuer of four series of senior notes aggregating
$1.15 billion. The obligations of the Subsidiary Issuer to
pay principal, premiums, if any, and interest are guaranteed
jointly and severally on a senior basis by the Company and
substantially all of its 100% owned home building subsidiaries
(the Guarantor Subsidiaries). The guarantees are
full and unconditional. The Companys non-home building
subsidiaries and certain home building subsidiaries (the
Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries) do not guarantee the
debt. Separate financial statements and other disclosures
concerning the Guarantor Subsidiaries are not presented because

DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS
|
OVERVIEW
The financial guidance contained herein related to our expected
results of operations for fiscal 2007 reflects our expectations
as of February 22, 2007, is the same guidance given in the
Form 8-K
that we filed on February 22, 2007 and is not being
reconfirmed or updated by this Quarterly Report on
Form 10-Q.
In our first quarter ended January 31, 2007, we recognized
$1.09 billion of revenues and earned $54.3 million of
net income as compared to $1.34 billion of revenue and
$163.9 million of net income in the first quarter of fiscal
2006. We recognized $105.9 million of inventory write-downs
and a goodwill impairment in the first quarter of fiscal 2007 as
compared to $1.1 million of inventory write-downs in the
first quarter of fiscal 2006. In addition, our backlog at
January 31, 2007 of $4.15 billion decreased 30% as
compared to our backlog at January 31, 2006. Backlog
consists of homes under contract but not yet delivered to our
home buyer for our traditional product and for our
non-traditional high- and mid-rise product accounted for using
the completed contract method of accounting. Backlog for homes
for which we use the percentage of completion accounting method
consists of homes under contract but not yet delivered to our
home buyer less the amount of revenues we have recognized
related to those homes.
Beginning in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2005 and continuing
throughout fiscal 2006 and into the second quarter of fiscal
2007, we have experienced a slowdown in new contracts signed. In
our fiscal quarter ended January 31, 2007, the value of new
contracts signed of $748.7 million was $391.2 million,
or 34%, lower than the value of contracts signed in the first
quarter of fiscal 2006. We believe this slowdown is attributable
to a decline in consumer confidence, an overall softening of
demand for new homes, and an oversupply of homes available for
sale. We attribute the reduction in demand to concerns on the
part of prospective home buyers about the direction of home
prices, due in part to many home builders advertising
price reductions and increased sales incentives, and concerns by
the prospective home buyers about being able to sell their
existing homes. In addition, we believe speculators and
investors are no longer helping to fuel demand. We try to avoid
selling homes to speculators, and we generally do not build
detached homes without having a signed agreement of sale and
receiving a substantial down payment from a buyer. Nonetheless,
we have been impacted by an overall increase in the supply of
homes available for sale in many markets, as speculators attempt
to sell the homes they previously purchased or cancel contracts
for homes under construction, and as builders, who, as part of
their business strategy, were building homes in anticipation of
capturing additional sales in a demand-driven market, attempt to
reduce their inventories by lowering prices and adding
incentives. In addition, based on the high cancellation rates
reported by us and other builders, non-speculative buyer
cancellations are also adding to the supply of homes in the
marketplace. Of the agreements of sale that home buyers executed
during the first quarter of fiscal 2007 and the fourth quarter
of fiscal 2006, they canceled approximately 30% and 37% of them,
respectively. Our historical cancellation rate has been
approximately 7%. When we report contracts signed, the number
and value of contracts signed are reported net of any
cancellations occurring during the reporting period, whether
signed in that reporting period or in a prior period. Despite
this slowdown, we remain cautiously optimistic about the future
growth of our business. Our industry demographics remain strong
due to the continuing regulation-induced constraints on lot
supplies and the growing number of affluent households. In the
current challenging environment, we believe our access to
reliable capital and our strong balance sheet give us an
important competitive advantage. Based on our experience during
past cycles, we have learned that unexpected opportunities may
arise in difficult times for those who are well-prepared. We
believe that our solid financial base, our broad geographic
presence, our diversified product lines and our national brand
name all position us well for such opportunities now and in the
future. At January 31, 2007, we had $449.2 million of
cash and cash equivalents and approximately $1.10 billion
available under our bank revolving credit facility which extends
to March 17, 2011. With these resources and our history of
success in accessing the public debt markets, we believe we have
the resources available to fund this potential future growth.
We believe geographic and product diversification, access to
lower-cost capital, a versatile and abundant home mortgage
market, and improving demographics have in the past and will in
the future promote demand for those builders who can control
land and persevere through the increasingly difficult regulatory
approval process. We believe that this evolution in our industry
favors the large publicly traded home building companies with
the capital
22
and expertise to control home sites and gain market share. We
believe that as the approval process continues to become more
difficult, and as the political pressure from no-growth
proponents continues to increase, our expertise in taking land
through the approval process and our already approved land
positions will allow us to grow in the years to come.
Because of the length of time that it takes to obtain the
necessary approvals on a property, complete the land
improvements on it, and deliver a home after a home buyer signs
an agreement of sale, we are subject to many risks. We attempt
to reduce certain risks by: controlling land for future
development through options whenever possible, thus allowing us
to obtain the necessary governmental approvals before acquiring
title to the land; generally commencing construction of a
detached home only after executing an agreement of sale and
receiving a substantial down payment from a buyer; and using
subcontractors to perform home construction and land development
work on a fixed-price basis. In response to current market
conditions, we are re-evaluating and renegotiating many of our
optioned land positions. As a result, we have reduced our land
position to approximately 67,500 lots controlled compared to
73,000 at October 31, 2006 and 91,200 lots at
April 30, 2006. In the first quarter of fiscal 2007, we
recognized impairment charges of approximately
$83.0 million on several communities in which we are
currently selling and on land owned and $13.9 million of
write-downs attributable to land under option related to future
communities. In addition, we recognized a $9.0 million
charge for impairment of the goodwill related to an acquisition
in the Detroit, Michigan market in 1999. In the first quarter of
fiscal 2006, we recognized write-offs of $1.1 million.
In the ordinary course of doing business, we must make estimates
and judgments that affect decisions on how we operate and on the
reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses.
These estimates include, but are not limited to, those related
to the recognition of income and expenses; impairment of assets;
estimates of future improvement and amenity costs;
capitalization of costs to inventory; provisions for litigation,
insurance and warranty costs; and income taxes. We base our
estimates on historical experience and on various other
assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the
circumstances. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate and adjust our
estimates based on the information currently available. Actual
results may differ from these estimates and assumptions or
conditions.
Projecting revenues and earnings results remain very difficult
in the current environment. The guidance we gave on
February 22, 2007 stated that, based upon our
evaluation of our backlog, our communities open and the expected
timing of new community openings in fiscal 2007, we believe that
in fiscal 2007 we will deliver between 6,000 and 7,000 homes
with an average delivered price between $670,000 and $680,000;
recognize between $180 million and $195 million of
revenues using the percentage of completion method of accounting
related to several high-rise residences that are under
construction; earn net income between $240 million and
$305 million; and achieve diluted earnings per share
between $1.46 and $1.85 per share.
At January 31, 2007, we were selling from 320 communities
compared to 300 communities at October 31, 2006 and 258
communities at January 31, 2006. We expect to be selling
from approximately 340 communities at October 31, 2007.
CRITICAL
ACCOUNTING POLICIES
We believe the following critical accounting policies reflect
the more significant judgments and estimates used in the
preparation of our consolidated financial statements.
Inventory
Inventory is stated at the lower of cost or fair value in
accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
(SFAS) No. 144, Accounting for the
Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets
(SFAS 144). In addition to direct land
acquisition, land development and home construction costs, costs
include interest, real estate taxes and direct overhead related
to development and construction, which are capitalized to
inventories during the period beginning with the commencement of
development and ending with the completion of construction.
Once a parcel of land has been approved for development, it
generally takes four to five years to fully develop, sell and
deliver all the homes in one of our typical communities. Longer
or shorter time periods are possible
23
depending on the number of home sites in a community and the
sales and delivery pace of the homes in a community. Our master
planned communities, consisting of several smaller communities,
may take up to 10 years or more to complete. Because our
inventory is considered a long-lived asset under
U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, we are
required, under SFAS 144, to regularly review the carrying
value of each of our communities and write down the value of
those communities for which we believe the values are not
recoverable. When the profitability of a current community
deteriorates, the sales pace declines significantly or some
other factor indicates a possible impairment in the
recoverability of the asset, the asset is reviewed for
impairment by comparing the estimated future undiscounted cash
flow for the community to its carrying value. If such cash flow
is less than the communitys carrying value, the carrying
value is written down to its estimated fair value by charging
cost of revenues in the period the impairment is determined.
Fair value is determined by the use of estimates made by
management including estimate of future revenues and costs.
In addition, we review all land held for future communities or
future sections of current communities, whether owned or under
contract, to determine whether or not we expect to proceed with
the development of the land as originally contemplated. Based
upon this review, we decide (a) as to land that is under a
purchase contract but not owned, whether the contract will
likely be terminated or renegotiated, and (b) as to land we
own, whether the land will likely be developed as contemplated
or in an alternative manner, or should be sold. We then further
determine which costs that have been capitalized to the property
are recoverable and which costs should be written off. We
recognized $96.9 million and $1.1 million of
write-offs of costs related to current and future communities in
the three-month periods ended January 31, 2007 and 2006,
respectively. The write-offs in fiscal 2007 were attributable to
the write-down of the carrying cost of several operating
communities and owned land, primarily located in Florida,
Minnesota and New Jersey and one condominium conversion project
in Maryland, and the write-off of land deposits and
predevelopment costs of land optioned for future communities
primarily in California and Florida.
We have a significant number of land purchase contracts,
sometimes referred to herein as options or
option agreements, and several investments in
unconsolidated entities which we evaluate in accordance with the
Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB)
Interpretation No. 46 Consolidation of Variable
Interest Entities, an interpretation of ARB No. 51,
as amended by FIN 46R (FIN 46). Pursuant
to FIN 46, an enterprise that absorbs a majority of the
expected losses or receives a majority of the expected residual
returns of a variable interest entity (VIE) is
considered to be the primary beneficiary and must consolidate
the operations of the VIE. A VIE is an entity with insufficient
equity investment or in which the equity investors lack some of
the characteristics of a controlling financial interest. For
land purchase contracts with sellers meeting the definition of a
VIE, we perform a review to determine which party is the primary
beneficiary of the VIE. This review requires substantive
judgment and estimation. These judgments and estimates involve
assigning probabilities to various estimated cash flow
possibilities relative to the entitys expected profits and
losses and the cash flows associated with changes in the fair
value of the land under contract. At January 31, 2007, we
had determined that we were the primary beneficiary of one VIE
related to a land purchase contract and recorded
$76.1 million as inventory, $68.6 million as a loan
payable and $5.5 million as accrued liabilities .
Revenue
and Cost Recognition
Traditional
Home Sales
Because the construction time for one of our traditional homes
is generally less than one year, revenues and cost of revenues
from traditional home sales are recorded at the time each home
is delivered and title and possession are transferred to the
buyer. Closing normally occurs shortly after construction is
substantially completed. In addition, we have several
high-rise/mid-rise projects which do not qualify for percentage
of completion accounting in accordance SFAS No. 66,
Accounting for Sales of Real Estate
(SFAS 66), which we will include in this
category of revenues and costs commencing in the later portion
of fiscal 2007 when units in these building begin to be
delivered to customers.
Land, land development and related costs, both incurred and
estimated to be incurred in the future, are amortized to the
cost of homes closed based upon the total number of homes to be
constructed in each community. Any changes resulting from a
change in the estimated number of homes to be constructed or in
the estimated costs subsequent to the commencement of delivery
of homes are allocated to the remaining undelivered homes in the
24
community. Home construction and related costs are charged to
the cost of homes closed under the specific identification
method. The estimated land, common area development and related
costs of master planned communities, including the cost of golf
courses, net of their estimated residual value, are allocated to
individual communities within a master planned community on a
relative sales value basis. Any changes resulting from a change
in the estimated number of homes to be constructed or in the
estimated costs are allocated to the remaining home sites in
each of the communities of the master planned community.
Percentage
of Completion
We are developing several high-rise/mid-rise projects that may
take substantially more than one year to complete. Under the
provisions of SFAS 66, revenues and costs are recognized
using the percentage of completion method of accounting when
construction is beyond the preliminary stage, the buyer is
committed to the extent of being unable to require a refund
except for non-delivery of the unit, sufficient units in the
project have been sold to ensure that the property will not be
converted to rental property, the sales proceeds are collectible
and the aggregate sales proceeds and the total cost of the
project can be reasonably estimated. Revenues and costs of
individual projects are recognized on the individual
projects aggregate value of units for which the home
buyers have signed binding agreements of sale, less an allowance
for cancellations, and are based on the percentage of total
estimated construction costs that have been incurred. Total
estimated revenues and construction costs are reviewed
periodically, and any change is applied to current and future
periods.
Land
Sales
Land sales revenues and cost of revenues are recorded at the
time that title and possession of the property have been
transferred to the buyer. We recognize the pro rata share of
revenues and cost of land sales revenues to entities in which we
have a 50% or less interest based upon the ownership percentage
attributable to the non-Company investors. Any profit not
recognized in a transaction reduces our investment in the entity.
OFF-BALANCE
SHEET ARRANGEMENTS
We have investments in and advances to several joint ventures,
to Toll Brothers Realty Trust Group (Trust) and
Toll Brothers Realty Trust Group II
(Trust II). At January 31, 2007, we had
investments in and advances to these entities of
$251.0 million, were committed to invest or advance an
additional $358.2 million in the aggregate to these
entities if needed and had guaranteed approximately
$154.0 million of these entities indebtedness
and/or loan
commitments. See Note 3 of the Notes to Condensed
Consolidated Financial Statements, Investments in and
Advances to Unconsolidated Entities for more information
regarding these entities. We do not believe that these
arrangements, individually or in the aggregate, have or are
reasonably likely to have a current or future material effect on
our financial condition, results of operations, liquidity or
capital resources. Our investments in these entities are
accounted for using the equity method.

TRADITIONAL
HOME SALES REVENUES AND COSTS
Home sales revenues for the three months ended January 31,
2007 were lower than those for the comparable period of 2006 by
approximately $224.6 million, or 18%. The decrease was
attributable to a 17% decrease in the number of homes delivered
and a 1% decrease in the average price of the homes delivered.
The decrease in the number of homes delivered in the three-month
period ended January 31, 2007 was primarily due to the
lower backlog of homes at October 31, 2006 as compared to
October 31, 2005, which was primarily the result of a
41% decrease in the number of new contracts signed in
fiscal 2006 over fiscal 2005, and the increased number of
cancellations of contracts by home buyers in the fiscal 2007
period as compared to the fiscal 2006 period.
26
The value of new sales contracts signed was $590.4 million
(878 homes) in the three months ended January 31, 2007, a
41% decrease compared to the value of contracts signed in the
comparable period of fiscal 2006 of $1.01 billion (1,395
homes). This decrease is attributable to a 37% decrease in the
number of new contracts signed and a 7% decrease in the average
value of each contract. We believe the decrease in the number of
new contracts signed is attributable to a decline in consumer
confidence, an overall softening of demand for new homes and an
oversupply of homes available for sale. We attribute the
reduction in demand to concerns on the part of prospective home
buyers about the direction of home prices, due in part to many
homebuilders advertising price reductions and increased
sales incentives, and concerns by the prospective home buyer
about being able to sell their existing homes. In addition,
speculators and investors are no longer helping to fuel demand.
We try to avoid selling homes to speculators, and we generally
do not build detached homes without having a signed agreement of
sale. Nonetheless, we have been impacted by an overall increase
in the supply of homes available for sale in many markets as
speculators attempt to sell the homes they previously purchased
or cancel contracts for homes under construction, and as
builders, who, as part of their business strategy, were building
homes in anticipation of capturing additional sales in a
demand-driven market attempt to reduce their inventories by
lowering prices and adding incentives. In addition, based on the
high cancellation rates reported by us and by other builders,
non-speculative buyer cancellations are also adding to the
supply of homes in the marketplace. The decline in the average
sales price was due to higher sales incentives given to
homebuyers in the fiscal 2007 period as compared to the
comparable period of fiscal 2006 and a shift in the number of
contracts signed to less expensive areas in the fiscal 2007
period as compared to the comparable period of fiscal 2006.
At January 31, 2007, our backlog of traditional homes under
contract was $3.58 billion (5,120 homes), 36% lower
than the $5.57 billion (8,106 homes) backlog at
January 31, 2006. The decrease in backlog at
January 31, 2007 compared to the backlog at
January 31, 2006 is primarily attributable to a lower
backlog at October 31, 2006 as compared to the backlog at
October 31, 2005, and the decrease in the value and number
of new contracts signed in the fiscal 2007 period as compared to
the fiscal 2006 period, offset in part by lower deliveries in
the fiscal 2007 period as compared to the fiscal 2006 period.
The guidance we gave on February 22, 2007 stated that,
based on the size of our current backlog and the expected demand
for our product, we believe that we will deliver between 6,000
and 7,000 homes (including 100 to 150 units in several of
our non-traditional high- and mid-rise projects accounted for
under the completed contract method of accounting) in fiscal
2007 and that the average delivered price of those homes will be
between $670,000 and $680,000.
Home costs as a percentage of home sales revenue were 80.3% in
the three-month period ended January 31, 2007 as compared
to 69.1% in the comparable period of fiscal 2006. The increase
in the percentage in the fiscal 2007 period was the result of
the higher amount of inventory write-offs/write-downs
recognized, higher sales incentives on the homes delivered,
higher overhead costs per home due to the decreased construction
activity and higher external broker sales commissions on the
homes delivered. In the three-month periods ended
January 31, 2007 and 2006, we recognized inventory
write-downs and the expensing of costs that we believed not to
be recoverable of $96.9 million and $1.1 million,
respectively. The guidance we gave on February 22,
2007 stated that, for the full 2007 fiscal year, we expect
that home costs (including inventory write-offs/write-downs of
the $96.9 million consisting of write-offs recognized in
the first quarter of fiscal 2007 and an additional
$60 million of write-offs for the remainder of fiscal
2007), as a percentage of home sales revenues will be between
77.90% and 78.55% as compared to 71.7% in fiscal 2006.
PERCENTAGE
OF COMPLETION REVENUES AND COSTS
We are developing several projects for which we are recognizing
revenues and costs using the percentage of completion method of
accounting. Revenues and costs of individual projects are
recognized on the individual projects aggregate value of
units for which home buyers have signed binding agreements of
sale and are based on the percentage of total estimated
construction costs that have been incurred. Total estimated
revenues and construction costs are reviewed periodically and
any change is applied to current and future periods. We began
recognizing revenue and costs using percentage of completion
accounting on several projects in fiscal 2006. In the
three-month periods ended January 31, 2007 and 2006, we
recognized $33.1 million and $57.6 million of
revenues, respectively, and $25.9 million and
$47.3 million of costs, respectively, on these projects. At
January 31, 2007, our backlog of homes in communities that
we account for using the percentage of completion method of
accounting was
27
$138.7 million (net of $166.9 million of revenue
recognized) compared to $226.7 million at January 31,
2006 (net of $57.6 million of revenue recognized). The
decline in the backlog at January 31, 2007 is primarily the
result of the recognition of revenues offset in part by the new
contracts signed. We expect that this decline will continue as
we recognize revenues, and sell out of existing projects without
replacing them with new projects that qualify under the
accounting rules for the application of the percentage of
completion accounting method. See New Accounting
Pronouncements in Note 1 of our Condensed
Consolidated Financial Statements for further information.
The guidance we gave on February 22, 2007 stated that
for fiscal 2007, we believe that revenues recognized under the
percentage of completion accounting method will be between
$180 million and $195 million and costs before
interest expense will be approximately 75% of revenues.
LAND
SALES REVENUES AND COSTS
We are developing several communities in which we expect to sell
a portion of the land to other builders or entities. The amount
and profitability of land sales will vary from year to year
depending upon the sale and delivery of the specific land
parcels. In the three-month periods ended January 31, 2007
and 2006, land sales were $3.4 million and
$4.7 million, respectively. Cost of land sales was
approximately 30.6% and 82.0% of land sales revenues in the
three-month periods ended January 31, 2007 and 2006,
respectively. The guidance we gave on February 22,
2007 stated that for the full fiscal 2007 year, land
sales revenues are expected to be approximately
$7.0 million, and cost of land sales is expected to be
approximately 60% of revenues.
INTEREST
EXPENSE
In our traditional homebuilding operations, we determine
interest expense on a specific
lot-by-lot
basis and for land sales, on a
parcel-by-parcel
basis. As a percentage of total revenues, interest expense
varies depending on many factors, including the period of time
that we owned the land, the length of time that the homes
delivered during the period were under construction, and the
interest rates and the amount of debt carried by us in
proportion to the amount of our inventory during those periods.
For projects using the percentage of completion method of
revenue recognition, interest expense is determined based on the
total estimated interest for the project and the percentage of
total estimated construction costs that have been incurred to
date. Any change in the estimated interest expense for the
project is applied to current and future periods.
Interest expense as a percentage of revenues was slightly lower
in the three-month period ended January 31, 2007 as
compared to the comparable period of fiscal 2006. The guidance
we gave on February 22, 2007 stated that for the full
2007 fiscal year, we expect interest expense as a percentage of
total revenues to be approximately 2.1% as compared to 2.0% in
fiscal 2006.
SELLING,
GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES
(SG&A)
SG&A spending decreased by $5.0 million, or 3.6%, in
the three-month period ended January 31, 2007 as compared
to the comparable period of fiscal 2006. The reduction in
spending was due to cost reductions, offset in part by the
expenses resulting from the increased number of communities from
which we are operating. At January 31, 2007, we had 320
selling communities, a 24% increase over the 258 selling
communities we had at January 31, 2006.
The guidance we gave on February 22, 2007 stated that
for the full 2007 fiscal year, we expect that SG&A as a
percentage of revenues will be between 11.3% and 11.7% of
revenues as compared to 9.4% for the full 2006 fiscal year.
GOODWILL
IMPAIRMENT
During the three-month period ended January 31, 2007, due
to the continued decline of the Detroit market, we re-evaluated
the carrying value of goodwill associated with a 1999
acquisition. We estimated the fair value of our assets in this
market, including goodwill. Fair value was determined based on
the discounted future cash flow expected to be generated in this
market. Based upon this evaluation and our expectation that this
market will not
28
recover for a number of years, we have determined that the
related goodwill has been impaired. We recognized a
$9.0 million impairment charge in the three-month period
ended January 31, 2007. After recognizing this charge, we
do not have any goodwill remaining from this acquisition.
EQUITY
EARNINGS IN UNCONSOLIDATED ENTITIES
We are a participant in several joint ventures and in the Trust
and Trust II. We recognize our proportionate share of the
earnings from these entities. Many of our joint ventures are
land development projects or high-rise/mid-rise construction
projects and do not generate revenues and earnings for a number
of years during the development of the property. Once
development is complete, the joint ventures will generally, over
a relatively short period of time, generate revenues and
earnings until all the assets of the entities are sold. Because
there is not a steady flow of revenues and earnings from these
entities, the earnings recognized from these entities will vary
significantly from quarter to quarter and year to year. In the
three months ended January 31, 2007, we recognized
$6.8 million of earnings from unconsolidated entities as
compared to $16.6 million in the comparable period of
fiscal 2006. The guidance we gave on February 22,
2007 stated that for fiscal 2007, we expect to recognize
approximately $22.8 million of earnings from our
investments in these joint ventures and in the Trust and
Trust II compared to $48.4 million in fiscal 2006.
INTEREST
AND OTHER INCOME
For the three months ended January 31, 2007, interest and
other income was $29.0 million, an increase of
$17.6 million from the $11.3 million recognized in the
comparable period of fiscal 2006. This increase was primarily
the result of a $9.5 million gain realized from the sale of
our cable TV and broadband internet business, higher retained
customer deposits on cancelled contracts and higher interest
income. The guidance we gave on February 22,
2007 stated that for the full 2007 fiscal year, we expect
interest and other income to be approximately $49.0 million
compared to $52.7 million in fiscal 2006.
INCOME
BEFORE INCOME TAXES
For the three-month period ended January 31, 2007, income
before taxes was $87.2 million, a decrease of 67% from the
$265.6 million earned in the comparable period of fiscal
2006.
INCOME
TAXES
Income taxes were provided at an effective rate of 37.7% and
38.3% for the three-month periods ended January 31, 2007
and 2006, respectively. The decrease in the effective tax rate
in the three-month period of fiscal 2007 as compared to the
comparable period of fiscal 2006 was due primarily to higher
tax-free interest income in the fiscal 2007 period as a
percentage of total income, offset in part by the recognition of
higher interest expense (net of interest income) on estimated
income tax assessments. The guidance we gave on
February 22, 2007 stated that for the full fiscal
2007 year, we expect that our effective tax rate will be
approximately 38.8% as compared to 39.0% in fiscal 2006.
CAPITAL
RESOURCES AND LIQUIDITY
Funding for our business has been provided principally by cash
flow from operating activities, unsecured bank borrowings and
the public debt and equity markets. We have used our cash flow
from operating activities, bank borrowings and the proceeds of
public debt and equity offerings to acquire additional land for
new communities, fund additional expenditures for land
development, fund construction costs needed to meet the
requirements of our backlog and the increasing number of
communities in which we are offering homes for sale, invest in
unconsolidated entities, repurchase our stock, and repay debt.
We were a net user of cash in our operating activities in the
first quarter of fiscal 2007 and fiscal 2006 due primarily to
spending for land and construction in progress. We expect that
we will continue to be a net user of cash in our operating
activities during the remainder of fiscal 2007. We expect that
our inventory of lots will continue to increase, as we purchase
land that we currently have under contract or place under
contract in the future. We are currently negotiating and
searching for additional opportunities to obtain control of land
for future communities. At
29
January 31, 2007, the aggregate purchase price of land
parcels under option and purchase agreements was approximately
$2.68 billion (including $1.22 billion of land to be
acquired from joint ventures which we have invested in, made
advances to or made loan guarantees on behalf of, in the amount
of $162.7 million), of which we had paid or deposited
approximately $161.3 million.
In general, cash flow from operating activities assumes that, as
each home is delivered, we will purchase a home site to replace
it. Because we own several years supply of home sites, we
do not need to buy home sites immediately to replace the ones
delivered. In addition, we generally do not begin construction
of our traditional single-family detached homes until we have a
signed contract with the home buyer, although in fiscal 2006 and
during the three months ended January 31, 2007, due to an
extremely high cancellation rate of customer contracts and the
increase in the number of attached-home communities that we were
operating from, the number of speculative homes in our inventory
increased significantly. In the three-month period ended
January 31, 2007, the value of new contracts signed
decreased 34% as compared to the comparable period of fiscal
2006. In addition, in fiscal 2006, the value of new contracts
signed with home buyers decreased by 41% from fiscal 2005.
Should our business continue to decline significantly, 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 and sell and deliver the
speculative homes that are currently in inventory, resulting in
a temporary increase in our cash flow from operations. In
addition, we might continue to delay or curtail our acquisition
of additional land, as we did in the first quarter of fiscal
2007 and the second half of fiscal 2006, which would further
reduce our inventory levels and cash needs. We decreased our
home sites owned and controlled at January 31, 2007 by
approximately 9% from October 31, 2006 and by approximately
26% from April 30, 2006, the high point of lots owned and
controlled, in response to the deterioration of the housing
market.
During the past several years, we have had a significant amount
of cash invested in either short-term cash equivalents or
short-term interest-bearing marketable securities. In addition,
we have made a number of investments in unconsolidated entities
related to the acquisition and development of land for future
home sites or in entities that are constructing or converting
apartment buildings into luxury condominiums. Our investment
activities related to marketable securities and investments in
and distributions of investments from unconsolidated entities
are contained in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash
Flows in the section Cash flow from investing
activities.
We have a $1.8 billion credit facility consisting of a
$1.5 billion unsecured revolving credit facility and a
$300 million term loan facility (collectively, the
Credit Facility) with 33 banks, which extends to
March 2011. At January 31, 2007, interest was payable on
borrowings under the revolving credit facility at 0.475%
(subject to adjustment based upon our corporate debt rating and
leverage ratios) above the Eurodollar rate or at other specified
variable rates as selected by us from time to time. At
January 31, 2007, we had no outstanding borrowings against
the revolving credit facility but had letters of credit of
approximately $398.5 million outstanding under it. Under
the term loan facility, interest is payable at 0.50% (subject to
adjustment based upon our corporate debt rating and leverage
ratios) above the Eurodollar rate or at other specified variable
rates as selected by us from time to time. At January 31,
2007, interest was payable on the $300 million term loan at
5.87%. Prior to expanding our Credit Facility to encompass a
term loan that provides outstanding borrowings under our Credit
Facility, we had periodically maintained a loan balance
outstanding on our revolving credit facility; such borrowing was
entirely elective by us and was not required by the terms of our
revolving credit facility.
We believe that we will be able to continue to fund our
operations and meet our contractual obligations through a
combination of existing cash resources and our existing sources
of credit and the public debt markets.
INFLATION
The long-term impact of inflation on us is manifested in
increased costs for land, land development, construction and
overhead, as well as in increased sales prices of our homes. We
generally contract for land significantly before development and
sales efforts begin. Accordingly, to the extent land acquisition
costs are fixed, increases or decreases in the sales prices of
homes will affect our profits. Because the sales price of each
of our homes is fixed at the time a buyer enters into a contract
to acquire a home, and because we generally contract to sell our
homes before we begin construction, any inflation of costs in
excess of those anticipated may result in lower
30
gross margins. We generally attempt to minimize that effect by
entering into fixed-price contracts with our subcontractors and
material suppliers for specified periods of time, which
generally do not exceed one year.
In general, housing demand is adversely affected by increases in
interest rates and housing costs. Interest rates, the length of
time that land remains in inventory and the proportion of
inventory that is financed affect our interest costs. If we are
unable to raise sales prices enough to compensate for higher
costs, or if mortgage interest rates increase significantly,
affecting prospective buyers ability to adequately finance
home purchases, our revenues, gross margins and net income would
be adversely affected. Increases in sales prices, whether the
result of inflation or demand, may affect the ability of
prospective buyers to afford new homes.
GEOGRAPHIC
SEGMENTS
We operate in four geographic segments around the United States:
the North, consisting of Connecticut, Illinois, Massachusetts,
Michigan, Minnesota, New Jersey, New York, Ohio and Rhode
Island; the Mid-Atlantic, consisting of Delaware, Maryland,
Pennsylvania, Virginia and West Virginia; the South, consisting
of Florida, North Carolina, South Carolina and Texas; and the
West, consisting of Arizona, California, Colorado and Nevada. We
stopped selling homes in Ohio in fiscal 2005 and delivered our
last home in this state in fiscal 2006. The operations in Ohio
were immaterial to the North segment.

North
Revenues for the three months ended January 31, 2007 were
lower than those for the comparable period of 2006 by
approximately $100.4 million, or 32%. The decrease in
revenues was attributable to a 31% decrease in the number of
homes delivered, and a decrease in percentage of completion
revenues of approximately $20.2 million, partially offset
by a 2% increase in the average price of the homes delivered.
The decrease in the number of homes delivered in the three-month
period ended January 31, 2007 was primarily due to the
lower backlog of homes at October 31, 2006 as compared to
October 31, 2005, which was primarily the result of a 27%
decrease in the number of new contracts signed in fiscal 2006
over fiscal 2005 and the increased cancellation rate by home
buyers in the first quarter of fiscal 2007.
31
The value of net new contracts signed in the three months ended
January 31, 2007 was approximately $291.5 million, a
1% decline from the $293.8 million of net new contracts
signed in the three months ended January 31, 2006. This
decrease was attributable to an 8% decrease in the number of net
new contracts signed, offset by an 8% increase in the average
value of each contract. The decline in new contracts signed in
the three-month period ended January 31, 2007 was primarily
due to a slowdown in the housing market, which began in the
fourth quarter of fiscal 2005 and continued throughout fiscal
2006 and into the second quarter of 2007. The increase in the
average sales price was due to a shift in the number of
contracts signed to areas with higher home prices in the fiscal
2007 period as compared to the comparable period of fiscal 2006,
partially offset by higher sales incentives given to home buyers
in the fiscal 2007 period as compared to the comparable period
of fiscal 2006.
Income before income taxes for the three months ended
January 31, 2007 was $0.8 million, a decrease of
$71.1 million from the $71.9 million reported for the
three months ended January 31, 2006. This decrease was due
to the lower profits realized on the decreased revenues in the
three-month period ended January 31, 2007 as compared to
the three-month period ended January 31, 2006, decreased
income realized from unconsolidated entities in the first
quarter 2007 as compared to the first quarter 2006, higher costs
of revenues in the fiscal 2007 period as compared to the fiscal
2006 period (principally related to a $33.1 million
inventory write-down) and the recognition of a $9.0 million
charge for goodwill impairment related to a 1999 acquisition in
the Detroit market.
Mid-Atlantic
Revenues for the three months ended January 31, 2007 were
lower than those for the comparable period of 2006 by
approximately $62.4 million, or 16%. The decrease in
revenues was attributable to a 13% decrease in the number of
homes delivered (primarily in Virginia) and a 3% decrease in the
average sales price of the homes delivered. The decrease in the
number of homes delivered in the three-month period ended
January 31, 2007 was primarily due to an increase in the
number of cancellations in the first quarter of 2007 as compared
to the first quarter of fiscal 2006 and a lower backlog of homes
at October 31, 2006 as compared to October 31, 2005.
The decrease in the backlog of homes was primarily the result of
a 43% decrease in the number of new contracts signed in fiscal
2006 over fiscal 2005, due primarily to weak demand, and a
significantly higher number of contract cancellations in fiscal
2006 than in fiscal 2005.
The value of net new contracts signed in the three-month period
ended January 31, 2007 was approximately
$207.2 million, a 35% decline from the $318.8 million
of net new contracts signed in the three-month period ended
January 31, 2006. This decrease is attributable to a 30%
decrease in the number of net new contracts signed and a 7%
decrease in the average value of each contract. The decline in
the number of net new contracts was due primarily to weak demand
and higher than normal contract cancellations in the three-month
period ended January 31, 2007. The decline in the average
sales price was due to higher sales incentives given to home
buyers in the fiscal 2007 period as compared to the comparable
period of fiscal 2006 and a shift in the number of contracts
signed to areas with lower home prices in the fiscal 2007 period
as compared to the comparable period of fiscal 2006.
Income before income taxes for the three months ended
January 31, 2007 was $51.6 million, a decrease of
$66.4 million from the $118.0 million reported for the
three months ended January 31, 2006. This decrease was
attributable to lower revenues and higher cost of revenues in
the three-month period ended January 31, 2007 as compared
to the same period in 2006. The higher cost of revenues in the
fiscal 2007 period is primarily due to a $22.9 million
inventory write-down in fiscal 2007 and higher sales incentives
given on the homes delivered in the three months ended
January 31, 2007 as compared to those delivered in the
three months ended January 31, 2006.
South
Revenues for the three months ended January 31, 2007 were
lower than those for the comparable period of 2006 by
approximately $28.1 million, or 10%. The decrease in
revenues was attributable to a 14% decrease in the number of
traditional homes delivered, partially offset by a 6% increase
in the average sales price of homes delivered. The decrease in
the number of homes delivered was primarily attributable to our
operations in Florida, where we had a lower number of homes in
backlog at October 31, 2006 as compared to October 31,
2005 and the increased cancellation rate by home buyers in the
first quarter of fiscal 2007.
32
The value of net new contracts signed in the three month period
ended January 31, 2007 was approximately
$120.6 million, a 42% decline from the $208.2 million
of net new contracts signed in the three-month period ended
January 31, 2006. This decline was due to a 36% decrease in
the number of net new contracts signed and a 10% decrease in the
average value of each contract. The decrease in the number of
net new signed contracts was primarily the result of weak market
conditions in Florida, despite an increase in the number of
selling communities in Florida in the first quarter of 2007 as
compared to the first quarter of 2006, and a significantly
higher number of contract cancellations in the three months
ended January 31, 2007 than in the comparable period in
2006. The decrease in the average sales price was due to higher
sales incentives given to home buyers in the fiscal 2007 period
as compared to the comparable period of fiscal 2006 and a shift
in the number of contracts to areas with lower home prices in
the fiscal 2007 period as compared to the comparable period of
fiscal 2006.
Income before income taxes for the three months ended
January 31, 2007 was $4.0 million, a decrease of
$30.5 million from the $34.5 million reported for the
three months ended January 31, 2006. This decrease was due
to decreased revenues in the three-month period ended
January 31, 2007 as compared to the three-month period
ended January 31, 2006, and higher cost of revenues as a
percentage of total revenues, partially offset by higher
retained customer deposits on contract cancellations for the
three months ended January 31, 2007 as compared to the
three months ended January 31, 2006. The higher cost of
revenues is principally due to inventory write-downs. We
recognized inventory write-downs of $30.0 million in the
three months ended January 31, 2007 as compared to
$0.4 million in the comparable period of fiscal 2006.
West
Revenues for the three months ended January 31, 2007 were
lower than those for the comparable period of 2006 by
approximately $59.5 million, or 17%. The decrease in
revenues was attributable to an 11% and 6% decrease in the
number of homes delivered and average sales price, respectively.
The decrease in the number of homes delivered was primarily
attributable to our operations in California where we had a
lower number of homes in backlog at October 31, 2006 as
compared to October 31, 2005, and a significantly higher
number of contract cancellations in the three months ended
January 31, 2007 than in the same period in 2006.
The value of net new contracts signed in the three months ended
January 31, 2007, approximately $129.3 million,
decreased 59% from the first quarter 2006 net new contracts
signed of approximately $319.1 million. The decline was due
primarily to weak demand and higher than normal contract
cancellations in the three months ended January 31, 2007.
Income before income taxes for the three months ended
January 31, 2007 was $56.9 million, a decrease of
$27.4 million from the $84.3 million reported for the
three months ended January 31, 2006. This decrease was due
to the decrease in revenues in the three-months ended
January 31, 2007 and the higher cost of revenues as a
percentage of total revenues (principally related to the
$10.9 million inventory write-downs), partially offset by
higher retained customer deposits on contract cancellations for
the three months ended January 31, 2007 as compared to the
three months ended January 31, 2006.
Corporate
and other
Loss before income taxes for the three months ended
January 31, 2007 was $26.1 million, a decrease of
$17.0 million from the $43.1 million loss before
income taxes reported for the three months ended
January 31, 2006. This decrease was primarily the result of
a $9.5 million gain realized from the sale of our cable TV
and broadband internet business, lower selling, general and
administrative costs and higher interest income.

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
market value of the debt instrument, but do affect our earnings
and cash flow. We do not have the obligation to prepay
fixed-rate debt prior to maturity, and, as a result, interest
rate risk and changes in fair market 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, 2007, our debt
obligations, principal cash flows by scheduled maturity,
weighted-average interest rates and estimated fair value
(amounts in thousands):

|
(a) |
|
We have a $1.8 billion credit facility consisting of a
$1.5 billion unsecured revolving credit facility and a
$300 million term loan facility (collectively, the
Credit Facility) with 33 banks, which extends to
March 17, 2011. At January 31, 2007, interest was
payable on borrowings under the revolving credit facility at
0.475% (subject to adjustment based upon our corporate debt
rating and leverage ratios) above the Eurodollar rate or at
other specified variable rates as selected by us from time to
time. At January 31, 2007, we had no outstanding borrowings
against the revolving credit facility, but had letters of credit
of approximately $398.5 million outstanding under it. Under
the term loan facility, interest is payable at 0.50% (subject to
adjustment based upon our corporate debt rating and leverage
ratios) above the Eurodollar rate or at other specified variable
rates as selected by us from time to time. At January 31,
2007, interest was payable on the $300 million term loan at
5.87%. |
|
(b) |
|
Our mortgage subsidiary has a $125 million line of credit
with four banks to fund mortgage originations. The line is due
within 90 days of demand by the banks and bears interest at
the banks overnight rate plus an
agreed-upon
margin. At January 31, 2007, the subsidiary had
$65.9 million outstanding under the line at an average
interest rate of 6.43%. Borrowings under this line are included
in the fiscal 2007 maturities. |
Based upon the amount of variable-rate debt outstanding at
January 31, 2007, and holding the variable-rate debt
balance constant, each 1% increase in interest rates would
increase the interest incurred by us by approximately
$5.3 million per year.

ITEM 4.
|
CONTROLS
AND PROCEDURES
|
A control system, 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. Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to
provide reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives.
36
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) 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 ensure 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 Commissions 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 internal control over financial
reporting during our quarter ended January 31, 2007 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
the disposition of these matters will not have a material
adverse effect on our business or our financial condition.
In January 2006, the Company received a request for information
pursuant to Section 308 of the Clean Water Act from Region
3 of the Environmental Protection Agency (the EPA)
requesting information about storm water discharge practices in
connection with our homebuilding projects in the states that
comprise EPA Region 3. To the extent the EPAs review were
to lead the EPA to assert violations of state
and/or
federal regulatory requirements and request injunctive relief
and/or civil
penalties, the Company would defend and attempt to resolve any
such asserted violations. At this time the Company cannot
predict the outcome of the EPAs review.
There are no other proceedings required to be disclosed pursuant
to Item 103 of
Regulation S-K.
There has been no material change in our risk factors as
previously disclosed in our
Form 10-K
for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2006 in response to
Item 1A. to Part 1 of such
Form 10-K.

As part of Mr. Robert I. Tolls 2006 bonus payment, he
exchanged $1.8 million of cash and 38,634 unrestricted
shares of our common stock with a fair market value of
$1.2 million as of January 5, 2007, which he received
as part of his 2006 bonus payment, for 96,586 restricted shares
of our common stock valued as of January 5, 2007 (the date
of the bonus payment). The restricted shares vest 50% on the
first anniversary of the exchange and |
37
|
|
|
|
|
50% on the second anniversary of the exchange unless he should
retire, die, or become disabled (as those terms are defined in
the stock award document), at which time the shares would
immediately vest. |
|
(2) |
|
On March 26, 2003, we announced that our Board of Directors
had authorized the repurchase of up to 20 million shares of
our common stock, par value $.01, from time to time, in open
market transactions or otherwise, for the purpose of providing
shares for our various employee benefit plans. The Board of
Directors did not fix an expiration date for the repurchase
program. |
Except as set forth above, we have not repurchased any of our
equity securities.
We have not paid any cash dividends on our common stock to date
and expect that, for the foreseeable future, we will not do so.
Rather, we will follow a policy of retaining earnings in order
to finance the continued growth of our business and, from time
to time, repurchase shares of our common stock.
The payment of dividends is within the discretion of our Board
of Directors and any decision to pay dividends in the future
will depend upon an evaluation of a number of factors, including
our earnings, capital requirements, our operating and financial
condition, and any contractual limitations then in effect. In
this regard, our senior subordinated notes contain restrictions
on the amount of dividends we may pay on our common stock. In
addition, our Credit Facility requires us to maintain a minimum
tangible net worth (as defined in the credit agreement), which
restricts the amount of dividends we may pay. At
January 31, 2007, under the most restrictive of these
provisions, we could have paid up to approximately
$1.11 billion of cash dividends.
