Toll Brothers Reports FY 2022 2nd Quarter Results

May 24, 2022 4:31 PM

FORT WASHINGTON, Pa., May 24, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Toll Brothers, Inc. (NYSE: TOL) (TollBrothers.com), the nation’s leading builder of luxury homes, today announced results for its second quarter ended April 30, 2022.

FY 2022’s Second Quarter Financial Highlights (Compared to FY 2021's Second Quarter):

Douglas C. Yearley, Jr., chairman and chief executive officer, stated: “We are very pleased with our second quarter performance, as we met or exceeded our guidance on all key metrics. We delivered 2,407 new homes and generated $2.2 billion in home building revenue – both second quarter records. Our earnings per share grew by 83% from one year ago driven by a 170-basis point improvement in adjusted gross margin to 26.1% and an 80-basis point improvement in SG&A as a percentage of revenue. In addition, we met our sales expectations with 2,874 net contracts signed in the quarter – even as we limited sales in approximately 50% of our communities. Net signed contract value, at $3.1 billion, was our highest quarter ever, driving our second quarter-end backlog to a record $11.7 billion and 11,768 homes. Based on the strength of this backlog, we are maintaining our full year projection of 20% revenue growth, a 250-basis point increase in our adjusted gross margin to 27.5%, and a return on beginning equity of approximately 23%.

“While demand is still solid, over the past month it has moderated from the unprecedented pace of the past two years as buyers adapt to higher mortgage rates and other macro-economic conditions. However, the many fundamental drivers of housing demand remain firmly in place. These include favorable demographics, the significant imbalance between the supply and demand for homes, and migration trends. We believe these factors will support a healthy housing market over the long term.

“Our strategy of broadening our product lines, price points and geographies, coupled with our industry-leading luxury brand, positions us well for the current environment. Our attractive land portfolio allows us to be highly selective with new land opportunities and enables us to continue using excess cash flow to reduce debt and return capital to shareholders.”

RECONCILIATION OF NON-GAAP MEASURES

This press release contains, and Company management’s discussion of the results presented in this press release may include, information about the Company’s adjusted home sales gross margin and the Company’s net debt-to-capital ratio.

These two measures are non-GAAP financial measures which are not calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, the comparable GAAP financial measures, and may be different from non-GAAP measures used by other companies in the home building business.

The Company’s management considers these non-GAAP financial measures as we make operating and strategic decisions and evaluate our performance, including against other home builders that may use similar non-GAAP financial measures. The Company’s management believes these non-GAAP financial measures are useful to investors in understanding our operations and leverage and may be helpful in comparing the Company to other home builders to the extent they provide similar information.

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

The Company’s management believes adjusted home sales gross margin is a useful financial measure to investors because it allows them to evaluate the performance of our home building operations without the often varying effects of capitalized interest costs and inventory impairments. The use of adjusted home sales gross margin also assists the Company’s management in assessing the profitability of our home building operations and making strategic decisions regarding community location and product mix.

Forward-looking Adjusted Home Sales Gross MarginThe Company has not provided projected third quarter and full FY 2022 home sales gross margin or a GAAP reconciliation for forward-looking adjusted home sales gross margin because such measure cannot be provided without unreasonable efforts on a forward-looking basis, since inventory write-downs are based on future activity and observation and therefore cannot be projected for the third quarter and full FY 2022. The variability of these charges may have a potentially unpredictable, and potentially significant, impact on our third quarter and full FY 2022 home sales gross margin.

Net Debt-to-Capital RatioThe following table reconciles the Company’s ratio of debt to capital (calculated in accordance with GAAP) to the Company’s net debt-to-capital ratio (a non-GAAP financial measure). The net debt-to-capital ratio is calculated as (i) total debt minus mortgage warehouse loans minus cash and cash equivalents divided by (ii) total debt minus mortgage warehouse loans minus cash and cash equivalents plus stockholders’ equity.
