Toll Brothers Reports FY 2024 3rd Quarter Results

FORT WASHINGTON, Pa., Aug. 20, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Toll Brothers, Inc. (NYSE:TOL) (TollBrothers.com), the nation’s leading builder of luxury homes, today announced results for its third quarter ended July 31, 2024.

FY 2024’s Third Quarter Financial Highlights (Compared to FY 2023s Third Quarter):

Douglas C. Yearley, Jr., chairman and chief executive officer, stated: “We are very pleased to report another quarter of strong results. In our third quarter, we delivered 2,814 homes at an average price of $968,000, generating record third quarter home sales revenue of $2.72 billion. Our adjusted gross margin, at 28.8% in the quarter, significantly exceeded guidance due to favorable mix and greater efficiencies in our home building operations, and our SG&A margin of 9.0% beat guidance by 20 basis points. This combination of revenue and margin outperformance drove earnings of $3.60 per diluted share in the quarter.

“Net signed contracts were up year-over-year approximately 11% in both units and dollars, with July being our strongest month in the quarter. We are also encouraged by our solid deposit and traffic activity through the first three weeks of August. With mortgage rates at their lowest point in a year and trending lower, favorable demographics, and continued imbalance in the supply and demand of homes for sale, we are optimistic that demand will remain solid through the end of fiscal 2024 and into 2025.

“Based on our third quarter outperformance and our expectations for the fourth quarter, we are raising our full year guidance across all key home building metrics, including adjusted gross margin, which we now expect to be approximately 28.3% for the full year. We also expect to earn between $14.50 and $14.75 per diluted share with a return on beginning equity of approximately 22.5%.

“We remain on target to achieve our goal of operating from 410 communities by fiscal year end, representing 11% community count growth this year. At the end of the third quarter, we owned or controlled 72,700 lots, providing us sufficient land to grow community count in fiscal 2025 and beyond. We have a healthy balance sheet with low net debt, no significant near-term debt maturities and ample liquidity. In our third quarter, we repurchased $246 million of common stock, bringing our year-to-date repurchases to $427 million. We continue to generate strong operating cash flows and we are
increasing our expected share repurchase total for fiscal 2024 from $500 million to $600 million as we continue to both return capital to shareholders and invest in growth.”

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, adjusted net income, adjusted diluted earnings per share and the Company’s net debt-to-capital ratio.

These four 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.

Cost of revenues – home sales   1,977,162       1,931,949       5,339,671       5,065,750  
Home sales gross margin   747,310       742,653       1,963,657       1,848,372  
Add: Interest recognized in cost of revenues – home sales   32,803       37,004       91,121       99,642  
  Inventory impairments and write-offs in cost of revenues – home sales   5,459       3,364       35,358       22,437  
Adjusted home sales gross margin $ 785,572     $ 783,021     $ 2,090,136     $ 1,970,451  
                 
Home sales gross margin as a percentage of home sale revenues   27.4 %     27.8 %     26.9 %     26.7 %
                 
Adjusted home sales gross margin as a percentage of home sale revenues   28.8 %     29.3 %     28.6 %     28.5 %

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 Margin
The Company has not provided projected fourth quarter and full FY 2024 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 fourth quarter and full FY 2024. The variability of these charges may have a potentially unpredictable, and potentially significant, impact on our fourth quarter and full FY 2024 home sales gross margin.

Adjusted Net Income and Diluted Earnings Per Share Reconciliation

The following table reconciles the Company’s net income and earnings per share (calculated in accordance with GAAP) to the Company’s adjusted net income and diluted earnings per share (a non-GAAP financial measure).

Net Debt-to-Capital Ratio

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

Total net debt   1,803,238       1,679,240       1,460,341  
Total stockholders’ equity   7,414,864       7,307,974       6,797,156  
Total net capital $ 9,218,102     $ 8,987,214     $ 8,257,497  
Net debt-to-capital ratio   19.6 %     18.7 %     17.7 %

The Company’s management uses the net debt-to-capital ratio as an indicator of its overall leverage and believes it is a useful financial measure to investors in understanding the leverage employed in the Company’s operations.
