HORSHAM, Pa., Dec. 5, 2006 (PRIME NEWSWIRE) -- Toll Brothers, Inc. (NYSE:TOL) (www.tollbrothers.com), the nation's leading builder of luxury homes, today reported results for net income, revenues, backlog and contracts for its fourth quarter and fiscal year ended October 31, 2006.
FY 2006's fourth-quarter net income was $173.8 million, or $1.07 per share diluted, compared to FY 2005's fourth-quarter record of $310.3 million, or $1.84 per share diluted. In FY 2006, fourth-quarter net income included pre-tax write-downs of $115.0 million, or $68.7 million ($0.42 per share diluted) after tax. In FY 2005, fourth-quarter pre-tax write-downs totaled $1.4 million, or less than $0.01 per share diluted after tax. FY 2006 fourth-quarter earnings per share, including write-downs, declined 42% versus FY 2005. Excluding write-downs, fourth-quarter earnings per share was $1.49 diluted, down 19% versus FY 2005.
FY 2006 full-year net income was $687.2 million, or $4.17 per share diluted, compared to FY 2005's fiscal-year record of $806.1 million, or $4.78 per share diluted. FY 2006's net income included pre-tax write-downs of $152.0 million, or $92.7 million ($0.56 per share diluted) after tax, which represented about 2.7% of FYE 2006 Stockholders' Equity. FY 2005 full-year pre-tax write-downs were $5.1 million, or $0.02 per share diluted after tax. FY 2006 earnings per share, including write-downs, declined 13% versus FY 2005. Excluding write-downs, earnings per share was $4.73 diluted, down 1% versus FY 2005.
FYE 2006 Stockholders' Equity increased 24% over FYE 2005 and return on FY 2006 beginning equity was 25%.
FY 2006's fourth-quarter total revenues were $1.81 billion compared to the fourth-quarter record of $2.02 billion in FY 2005; FY 2006 fourth-quarter-end backlog was $4.49 billion compared to the fourth-quarter record of $6.01 billion in FY 2005; and FY 2006 fourth-quarter signed contracts were $706 million compared to the fourth-quarter record of $1.59 billion in FY 2005. Revenues, backlog and contracts declined 10%, 25% and 56%, respectively, compared to FY 2005's record fourth-quarter results.
FY 2006's full-year total revenues were a record $6.12 billion, up 6% compared to FY 2005's previous record of $5.79 billion. FY 2006 full-year signed contracts were $4.46 billion, down 38% compared to the record of $7.15 billion in FY 2005.
In response to current market conditions, the Company is reevaluating and renegotiating many of its optioned land positions. The Company ended FY 2006 with approximately 74,000 lots under control compared to approximately 83,200 at FYE 2005 and down 19% from its high of approximately 91,200 lots at FY 2006's second-quarter-end.
Projecting revenues and earnings results is difficult in the current environment. As previously announced, based on its current backlog, the impact of lessened fourth-quarter contracts and the increased rate of cancellations, in FY 2007, the Company expects to deliver between 6,300 and 7,300 homes. The Company expects to produce total home building revenues of between $4.34 billion and $5.10 billion, including percentage of completion revenues of between $180 million and $200 million, in FY 2007.
With regard to earnings expectations for FY 2007, there are two substantial changes from prior years.
First, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") has ratified the Emerging Issues Task Force's ("EITF") conclusion affecting the use of the "percentage of completion" method of accounting, subject to a comment period. Accordingly, it appears likely that such a change in accounting treatment will be approved. Toll Brothers' guidance for FY 2007 assumes that the Company will use this criteria. Those buildings already accounted for using the percentage of completion method will continue to record revenues in that manner. All other buildings will be accounted for using the completed contract method. The expected impact of this will be to shift revenues of between $275 million to $350 million and earnings of between $0.22 and $0.29 per share diluted after-tax from FY 2007 to subsequent years.
Second, because of uncertain market conditions at the present time, the Company, in its projections, has included an estimate of $60 million of pre-tax land-related write-downs for FY 2007, which is above the $16 million it had budgeted annually in recent years.
Based on all of these assumptions, the Company projects net income of between $260 million and $340 million, or $1.58 to $2.08 per share diluted, assuming 164 million shares outstanding in FY 2007. Prior to its conference call this afternoon at 2:00 P.M. (EST), the Company will file a Form 8-K with the Securities and Exchange Commission outlining its guidance assumptions in greater detail.
Robert I. Toll, chairman and chief executive officer, stated: "In tough times, our team produced our fifteenth consecutive year of record revenues and our second highest annual profits. These accomplishments are exceptional, considering the significant rise in cancellations, and are a tribute to our associates' commitment and hard work.
"Fifteen months into the current slowdown, we may be seeing a floor in some markets where deposits and traffic, although erratic from week to week, seem to be dancing on the bottom or slightly above. The metro D.C. suburbs of northern Virginia, which was the first market in which we saw activity slow, seems to have stabilized, although at levels much lower than those we have enjoyed over the past few years. In metro DC's Maryland market, a more lot-constrained region where builders built fewer spec homes and there were fewer speculative buyers, the market also appears to be stabilizing.
"As we previously announced, this quarter's results were negatively impacted by our higher than normal 585 cancellations. With these cancellations creating unintended specs, we could face increasing margin pressure as we seek to move these homes.
"Right now is a great time to buy a new luxury home. Builders are motivated to sell their specs and the fundamentals that typically lead our industry out of a slowdown are already in place. Interest rates are near historic lows, unemployment is near an all-time low and the stock market is setting records.
"Experts project that population and household growth will continue. The increase in affluent households continues to outpace that of households in general, which bodes well for our luxury niche. We believe we are well-positioned for the market rebound. We have an experienced and seasoned management team, the industry's leading brand name, a portfolio of well-located properties and a broad array of product lines to attract urban and suburban luxury home buyers at all stages of their lives.
"Last March, we increased our bank facility from $1.2 billion to $1.8 billion and extended it to March 2011. With approximately $1.1 billion unused and available under the facility, plus over $600 million of cash in hand at FYE 2006, we are ready to take advantage of opportunities that may arise in this market.
"We have learned by managing through five previous downturns that times of stress in our industry often produce unexpected opportunities. The last major downturn, in the late 1980's and early 1990's, provided a springboard for us to expand into northern Virginia, the New York City suburbs, southern Connecticut, metro Los Angeles and San Francisco. In that period we took the first major steps to becoming the national brand for luxury new homes.
"In FY 2006 we marked our twentieth anniversary as a public company and commenced our 40th year in the home building business. We are proud of what our team has accomplished and the value we have created for our shareholders since going public in July 1986. As of Monday's close, at $31.91 per share, our stock's price has grown nearly 3,000% from the day we offered it to the public; The S&P 500 has gone up about 485% over the same period. But management, which owns over 25% of our stock, is keenly aware of the 45% drop in our stock price since its peak in July 2005. We assure our fellow shareholders that we will not be satisfied until our earnings, revenues, backlog and contracts are once again setting new records."
Toll Brothers' financial highlights for the three-month and twelve-month periods ended October 31, 2006 (unaudited):
-- FY 2006's fourth-quarter net income was $173.8 million, or $1.07 per
share diluted, compared to FY 2005's fourth-quarter record of $310.3
million, or $1.84 per share diluted. In FY 2006, fourth-quarter net
income included pre-tax write-downs of $115.0 million, or $0.42 per
share diluted after tax. Approximately 60% of these write-downs were
attributable to optioned land and 40% to operating communities and
owned land. In FY 2005, fourth-quarter pre-tax write-downs totaled
$1.4 million. FY 2006 fourth-quarter earnings per share, including
write-downs, declined 42% versus FY 2005; excluding write-downs,
earnings per share was $1.49 diluted, down 19%.
-- FY 2006 full-year net income was $687.2 million, or $4.17 per share
diluted, the Company's second best year ever, compared to FY 2005's
fiscal year record of $806.1 million, or $4.78 per share diluted. FY
2006 net income included pre-tax write-downs of $152.0 million, or
$0.56 per share diluted after tax. FY 2005 full-year pre-tax
write-downs were $5.1 million, or $0.02 per share diluted after tax.
FY 2006 earnings per share, including write-downs, declined 13% versus
FY 2005; excluding write-downs, earnings per share was $4.73 diluted,
down 1%.
-- FY 2006's fourth-quarter revenues of $1.81 billion decreased 10% from
FY 2005's fourth-quarter revenues of $2.02 billion, the fourth-quarter
record. FY 2006's fourth-quarter home building revenues of $1.81
billion decreased 10% over FY 2005's fourth-quarter home building
revenues of $2.01 billion, the fourth-quarter record. Revenues from
land sales totaled approximately $0.3 million for FY 2006's fourth
quarter, compared to $12.5 million in FY 2005's fourth quarter.
-- FY 2006's twelve-month revenues of $6.12 billion increased 6% over FY
2005's twelve-month revenues of $5.79 billion, the previous
twelve-month record. FY 2006's twelve-month home building revenues of
$6.12 billion increased 6% over FY 2005's twelve-month home building
revenues of $5.76 billion, the previous fiscal-year record. FY 2006
revenues from land sales were $8.2 million, compared to $34.1 million
in the same period in FY 2005.
-- In the Company's fiscal 2006 fourth-quarter and fiscal year-end
periods, unconsolidated entities in which the Company had an interest,
had revenues of $11.8 million and $107.1 million, respectively,
compared to $63.4 million and $154.0 million, respectively, in the
same periods of FY 2005. The Company's share of the profits from the
delivery of these homes is included in 'Equity Earnings in
Unconsolidated Entities' on the Company's Income Statement.
-- The Company's FY 2006 fourth-quarter contracts of $706.3 million
declined by 56% over FY 2005's fourth-quarter contracts of $1.59
billion, the fourth-quarter record. In addition, in FY 2006's fourth
quarter, unconsolidated entities in which the Company had an interest
signed contracts of $17.2 million.
-- FY 2006's twelve-month contracts of $4.46 billion declined by 38% over
FY 2005's record total of $7.15 billion. In addition, in FY 2006's
twelve-month period, unconsolidated entities in which the Company had
an interest signed contracts of $69.1 million.
-- In FY 2006, fourth-quarter-end backlog of $4.49 billion declined 25%
over FY 2005's fourth-quarter-end backlog of $6.01 billion, the
fourth-quarter record. In addition, at October 31, 2006,
unconsolidated entities in which the Company had an interest had a
backlog of $18.0 million.
-- During the fourth quarter of FY 2006, the Company bought back
approximately 12 thousand shares of its stock at an average price of
approximately $27.29. For FY 2006, the Company bought back
approximately 3.63 million shares of its stock at an average price of
approximately $30.24. This compares to purchases of approximately 1.98
million and 2.80 million shares in fourth quarter and FY 2005,
respectively.
-- In September 2006, the Emerging Issues Task Force (the "EITF") of the
Financial Accounting Standards Board (the "FASB") recommended that the
adequacy of a buyer's continuing investment, as well as that buyer's
initial investment, should be evaluated when assessing the
collectability of the sales price of condominium units. Recently, the
FASB ratified the EITF's conclusion, subject to a comment period.
-- If finally approved by FASB, the effect of this change would be that
certain future buildings which the Company had expected to account for
using percentage of completion accounting may be required to use the
completed contract method of accounting. Information regarding these
buildings is included in the attached schedules under the heading
"Non-traditional-Long-Term." The Company does not expect that this
change in criteria would affect any revenues and costs reported under
the percentage of completion accounting method through
October 31, 2006 or for 2007 with respect to these buildings because
these buildings would qualify under the new criteria.
-- In FY 2007, based on its FY 2006 fourth quarter backlog, the state of
current demand and cancellations, the Company projects to deliver
between 6,300 and 7,300 homes at an average price of between $660,000
and $670,000. The Company also projects revenues of between $180 and
$200 million in FY 2007 from buildings accounted for under the
percentage of completion method. Because the Company believes the
criteria regarding percentage of completion accounting described above
will be approved, this projection assumes that for FY 2007, the
Company will use the criteria recommended by the EITF. Accordingly,
starting in FY 2007, only buildings already using the percentage of
completion method will be accounted for using that method. All other
buildings will be accounted for using the completed contract method.
The expected impact of this will be to shift revenues of between $275
million to $350 million, and earnings of between $0.22 and $0.29 per
share diluted after-tax, from FY 2007 to subsequent years.
-- In FY 2007's first quarter, the Company projects delivering between
1,600 and 1,900 homes at an average price of between $670,000 and
$680,000 and an additional $45 million to $50 million of revenues from
buildings accounted for under the percentage of completion method.
This compares to the Company's previous guidance on November 7, 2006
of 1,500 to 1,800 home deliveries in FY 2007's first quarter.
-- Prior to its 2:00 p.m. (EST) conference call today, December 5, 2006,
to discuss its fourth quarter and FY 2006 results, the Company will
file a Form 8-K with the Securities and Exchange Commission containing

(a) In September 2006, the Emerging Issues Task Force (the "EITF") of
the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the "FASB") recommended
that the adequacy of a buyer's continuing investment as well as
initial investment should be evaluated when assessing the
collectibility of the sales price of condominium units. The FASB
has ratified the EITF's recommendation subject to a comment
period and further discussions. Certain future communities that
the Company had expected to account for using percentage of
completion accounting, may be required to use the completed
contract method of accounting. Information regarding these
communities are included in "Non-traditional - long term." The
Company does not expect that the recommendation of the EITF, if
approved as proposed, would affect any revenues and costs
reported under the percentage of completion accounting method
through October 31, 2006.
(b) Mid- and High-Rise projects that are accounted for under the
percentage of completion accounting method. See details below.
