Significant Accounting Policies | |
Basis of Presentation | |
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Toll Brothers, Inc. (the “Company”), a Delaware corporation, and those majority-owned subsidiaries it controls. 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 would be consolidated. | |
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, 2013 balance sheet amounts and disclosures included herein have been derived from the Company’s October 31, 2013 audited financial statements. Since the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all the information and footnotes required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for complete financial statements, 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, 2013. 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 Company’s financial position as of April 30, 2014, the results of its operations for the six-month and three-month periods ended April 30, 2014 and 2013, and its cash flows for the six-month periods ended April 30, 2014 and 2013. 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 May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” (“ASU 2014-09”), which provides guidance for revenue recognition. ASU 2014-09 affects any entity that either enters into contracts with customers to transfer goods or services or enters into contracts for the transfer of nonfinancial assets and supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in Topic 605, “Revenue Recognition,” and most industry-specific guidance. This ASU also supersedes some cost guidance included in Subtopic 605-35, “Revenue Recognition-Construction-Type and Production-Type Contracts.” The standard’s core principle is that a company will recognize revenue when it transfers promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which a company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. In doing so, companies will need to use more judgment and make more estimates than under today’s guidance. These may include identifying performance obligations in the contract, estimating the amount of variable consideration to include in the transaction price and allocating the transaction price to each separate performance obligation. ASU 2014-09 is effective for the Company beginning November 1, 2017 and, at that time the Company may adopt the new standard under the full retrospective approach or the modified retrospective approach. Early adoption is not permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the method and impact the adoption of ASU 2014-09 will have on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements and disclosures. | |
In April 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-08, “Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity” (“ASU 2014-08”), which changes the criteria for reporting discontinued operations while enhancing disclosures in this area. Pursuant to ASU 2014-08, only disposals representing a strategic shift, such as a major line of business, a major geographical area or a major equity investment, should be presented as a discontinued operation. If the disposal does qualify as a discontinued operation under ASU 2014-08, the entity will be required to provide expanded disclosures. ASU 2014-08 is effective for the Company beginning November 1, 2015. The adoption of ASU 2014-08 is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements or disclosures. | |
In January 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-04, “Receivables - Troubled Debt Restructurings by Creditors” (“ASU 2014-04”), which clarifies when an in substance repossession or foreclosure of residential real estate property collateralizing a consumer mortgage loan has occurred. By doing so, this guidance helps determine when the creditor should derecognize the loan receivable and recognize the real estate property. ASU 2014-04 is effective prospectively for the Company beginning November 1, 2015. The adoption of ASU 2014-04 is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements or disclosures. | |
In July 2013, the FASB issued ASU No. 2013-11, “Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit When a Net Operating Loss Carryforward, a Similar Tax Loss, or a Tax Credit Carryforward Exists” (“ASU 2013-11”). ASU 2013-11 is intended to end inconsistent practices regarding the presentation of unrecognized tax benefits when a net operating loss, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward is available to reduce the taxable income or tax payable that would result from the disallowance of a tax position. ASU 2013-11 is effective for the Company beginning November 1, 2014. The adoption of ASU 2013-11 is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements or disclosures. |

Acquisition | ||||||||||||||||
On February 4, 2014, the Company completed its acquisition of Shapell Industries, Inc. (“Shapell”) pursuant to the Purchase and Sale Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) dated November 6, 2013, with Shapell Investment Properties, Inc. (“SIPI”). Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the Company acquired, for cash, all of the equity interests in Shapell from SIPI for an aggregate purchase price of $1.60 billion (the “Acquisition”). The Company acquired the single-family residential real property development business of Shapell, including a portfolio of approximately 4,950 home sites in California, some of which the Company will sell to other builders. This acquisition provides the Company with a premier California land portfolio including 11 active selling communities, as of the acquisition date, in affluent, high-growth markets: the San Francisco Bay area, metro Los Angeles, Orange County and the Carlsbad market. As part of the acquisition, the Company assumed contracts to deliver 126 homes with an aggregate value of approximately $105.3 million. | ||||||||||||||||
The Company did not acquire apartment and commercial rental properties owned and operated by Shapell (the “Shapell Commercial Properties”) or Shapell’s mortgage lending activities relating to its home building operations. Accordingly, the Purchase Agreement provides that SIPI will indemnify the Company for any loss arising out of or resulting from, among other things, (i) any liability (other than environmental losses, subject to certain exceptions) related to the Shapell Commercial Properties, and (ii) any liability (other than environmental losses, subject to certain exceptions) to the extent related to Shapell Mortgage, Inc. | ||||||||||||||||
The Company financed the Acquisition with a combination of $370.0 million of borrowings under its $1.035 billion unsecured revolving credit facility, $485.0 million from a term loan facility, as well as with $815.7 million in net proceeds from debt and equity financings completed in November 2013. See Note 6, “Loans Payable, Senior Notes and Mortgage Company Loan Facility” and Note 12, “Stock Issuance and Stock Repurchase Program” for further details. As a result of the Acquisition, Shapell became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. Accordingly, the Shapell results are included in the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements from the date of the Acquisition. For the period from February 5, 2014 to April 30, 2014, revenues and operating income from the Shapell operations, excluding $5.1 million of acquisition-related costs, were $102.0 million and $6.1 million, respectively. | ||||||||||||||||
The Acquisition was accounted for in accordance with ASC 805, “Business Combinations” (“ASC 805”), and, therefore, the acquired assets and assumed liabilities were recorded by the Company at their preliminary estimated fair values. The following table summarizes the preliminary amounts for acquired assets and liabilities recorded at their fair values as of the acquisition date (amounts in thousands): | ||||||||||||||||
Assets acquired and liabilities assumed | ||||||||||||||||
Cash and cash equivalents | $ | 106,233 | ||||||||||||||

Accounts payable and accrued liabilities | (26,119 | ) | ||||||||||||||
Total liabilities assumed | (31,548 | ) | ||||||||||||||
Total net assets acquired | $ | 1,595,349 | ||||||||||||||
Cash and cash equivalents, customer deposits and accounts payable were generally stated at historical carrying values given the short-term nature of these assets and liabilities. Receivables, prepaid expenses and other assets and accrued expenses were adjusted to reflect fair values. | ||||||||||||||||
The Company determined the fair value of inventory on a community-by-community basis primarily using a combination of discounted cash flow models and market comparable land transactions, where available. These estimated cash flows are significantly impacted by estimates related to: (i) expected selling prices, (ii) expected settlement paces, (iii) expected land development and construction timelines, and anticipated land development costs and construction costs, and (iv) overhead costs expected to be incurred in the future. Such estimates must be made for each individual community and may vary significantly between communities. See Note 1 in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K and Note 14 in this Form 10-Q for additional discussion of the factors impacting the fair value of inventory. | ||||||||||||||||
The Company completed the majority of its business combination accounting as of April 30, 2014 and expects to substantially complete the remainder by October 31, 2014. The Company is in the process of finalizing its fair value estimates for all of the Shapell assets acquired and liabilities assumed and, therefore, the estimates used at April 30, 2014 are subject to change. | ||||||||||||||||
The Company recorded $5.9 million and $5.1 million in acquisition-related costs for the six and three month periods ended April 30, 2014, which are included in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations within “Selling, general and administrative.” Such costs were expensed as incurred in accordance with ASC 805. There were no acquisition-related costs incurred in the six and three month periods ended April 30, 2013. | ||||||||||||||||

Income per share – diluted | 0.75 | 0.22 | 0.4 | 0.16 | ||||||||||||
The unaudited pro forma operating results have been determined after adjusting the operating results of Shapell to reflect the purchase accounting and other acquisition adjustments including interest expense associated with the debt used to fund a portion of the acquisition. The unaudited pro forma results do not reflect any cost savings, operating synergies or revenue enhancements that the Company may achieve as a result of the Acquisition, the costs to integrate Shapell’s operations, or the costs necessary to achieve these cost savings, operating synergies and revenue enhancements. Accordingly, the unaudited pro forma amounts are for comparative purposes only and may not necessarily reflect the results of operations which would have resulted had the acquisition been completed at the beginning of the applicable period or indicative of the results that will be attained in the future. | ||||||||||||||||
Certain other adjustments, including those related to conforming accounting policies and interest capitalization, have not been reflected in the supplemental pro forma operating results due to the impracticability of estimating such impacts. |

Operating communities include communities offering homes for sale; communities that have sold all available home sites but have not completed delivery of the homes; communities that were previously offering homes for sale but are temporarily closed due to business conditions or non-availability of improved home sites and that are expected to reopen within twelve months of the end of the fiscal period being reported on; and communities preparing to open for sale. The carrying value attributable to operating communities includes the cost of homes under construction, land and land development costs, the carrying cost of home sites in current and future phases of these communities, and the carrying cost of model homes. | ||||||||||||||||
Communities that were previously offering homes for sale but are temporarily closed due to business conditions that do not have any remaining backlog and are not expected to reopen within twelve months of the end of the fiscal period being reported on have been classified as land owned for future communities. Backlog consists of homes under contract but not yet delivered to the Company’s home buyers (“backlog”). | ||||||||||||||||

See Note 16, “Commitments and Contingencies,” for information regarding land purchase commitments. | ||||||||||||||||
At April 30, 2014, the Company evaluated its land purchase contracts to determine if any of the selling entities were variable interest entities (“VIEs”) and, if they were, whether the Company was the primary beneficiary of any of them. Under these land purchase contracts, the Company does not possess legal title to the land and its risk is generally limited to deposits paid to the sellers, and the creditors of the sellers generally have no recourse against the Company. At April 30, 2014, the Company determined that 79 land purchase contracts, with an aggregate purchase price of $802.7 million, on which it had made aggregate deposits totaling $47.9 million, were VIEs, and that it was not the primary beneficiary of any VIE related to its land purchase contracts. At October 31, 2013, the Company determined that 87 land purchase contracts, with an aggregate purchase price of $1.12 billion, on which it had made aggregate deposits totaling $51.9 million, were VIEs, and that it was not the primary beneficiary of any VIE related to its land purchase contracts. | ||||||||||||||||

The amounts included in the table directly above reflect the gross amount of capitalized interest without allocation of any impairment charges recognized. The Company estimates that, had inventory impairment charges been allocated on a pro-rata basis to the individual components of inventory, capitalized interest at April 30, 2014 and 2013 would have been reduced by approximately $35.4 million and $43.4 million, respectively. |

The Company has investments in and advances to various unconsolidated entities.

Land Development Joint Ventures | ||||||||||||||||||||
The Company has investments in and advances to a number of joint ventures with unrelated parties to develop land (“Land Development Joint Ventures”). Some of these Land Development Joint Ventures develop land for the sole use of the venture participants, including the Company, and others develop land for sale to the joint venture participants and to unrelated builders. The Company recognizes its share of earnings from the sale of home sites and other land by the Land Development Joint Ventures to other builders. With regard to home sites the Company purchases from the Land Development Joint Ventures, the Company adjusts its cost basis in those home sites by its share of the earnings/losses of the joint venture on the home sites the Company purchases. At April 30, 2014, the Company had approximately $160.5 million invested in or advanced to the Land Development Joint Ventures and a funding commitment of $45.4 million to four of the Land Development Joint Ventures which would be funded if additional investment in the ventures is required. At April 30, 2014, two of these joint ventures had aggregate loan commitments of $105.0 million and outstanding borrowings against these commitments of $29.2 million. | ||||||||||||||||||||
At April 30, 2014, the Company had a purchase commitment to acquire 115 home sites from one of these Land Development Joint Ventures for an aggregate purchase price of $12.6 million.

The purchase price of the lots will be determined at a future date. The Company will also receive approximately 935 home sites from one of its Land Development Joint Ventures in consideration of its previous investment in the joint venture. Set forth below is additional information regarding activity in certain Land Development Joint Ventures; such activity is included in the summary information provided above. | ||||||||||||||||||||

Toll Brothers Realty Trust and Trust II | ||||||||||||||||||||
In fiscal 2005, the Company, together with the Pennsylvania State Employees Retirement System (“PASERS”), formed Toll Brothers Realty Trust II (“Trust II”) to invest in commercial real estate opportunities. Trust II is owned 50% by the Company and 50% by an affiliate of PASERS. In December 2013, Trust II sold substantially all of its assets to an unrelated party. As a result of this sale, the Company realized income of approximately $23.5 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2014 representing its share of the gain on the sale. In the three-month period ended April 30, 2014, we recognized an additional gain of $0.6 million from the sale of a property by Trust II. The gain on sale of assets is included in “Income from unconsolidated entities” on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations. In December 2013, the Company received a $20.0 million cash distribution from Trust II. At April 30, 2014, the Company had an investment of $1.2 million in Trust II. In addition, in the first quarter of fiscal 2014, the Company recognized $2.9 million in previously deferred gains on the Company’s initial sales of the properties to Trust II. This gain is included in “Other income - net” on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations in this Form 10-Q. | ||||||||||||||||||||
In 1998, prior to the formation of Trust II, the Company formed Toll Brothers Realty Trust (“Trust”) to invest in commercial real estate opportunities. The Trust is effectively owned one-third by the Company; one-third by Robert I. Toll, Bruce E. Toll (and members of his family), Douglas C. Yearley, Jr. and former members of the Company’s senior management; and one-third by an affiliate of PASERS. As of April 30, 2014, the Company had a negative investment in the Trust of $0.9 million resulting primarily from a loss recognized by the Trust in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2013. The Company provides development, finance and management services to the Trust and recognized fees under the terms of various agreements in the amounts of $1.1 million in each of the six-month periods ended April 30, 2014 and 2013 and $0.6 million and $0.5 million in the three-month periods ended April 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. In the second quarter of fiscal 2014, the Trust refinanced the mortgage on one of its properties and distributed $36.0 million of the net proceeds from the refinancing to its partners. The Company received $12.0 million as its share of the proceeds and recognized this distribution as income in the quarter. This income is included in “Income from unconsolidated entities” in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations in this Form 10-Q. | ||||||||||||||||||||
Structured Asset Joint Venture | ||||||||||||||||||||
The Company, through Gibraltar Capital and Asset Management LLC (“Gibraltar”), is a 20% participant with two unrelated parties that purchased a 40% interest in an entity that owns and controls a portfolio of loans and real estate (“Structured Asset Joint Venture”). At April 30, 2014, the Company had an investment of $22.8 million in this Structured Asset Joint Venture. | ||||||||||||||||||||
Guarantees | ||||||||||||||||||||
The unconsolidated entities in which the Company has investments generally finance their activities with a combination of partner equity and debt financing. In some instances, the Company and its partners have guaranteed debt of certain unconsolidated entities which may include any or all of the following: (i) project completion including any cost overruns, in whole or in part, (ii) repayment guarantees, generally covering a percentage of the outstanding loan, (iii) indemnification of the lender as to environmental matters affecting the unconsolidated entity, (iv) a hazardous material indemnity that holds the lender harmless against any obligations for which the lender may incur liability resulting from the threat or presence of any hazardous or toxic substances at or near the property covered by a loan, and (v) indemnification of the lender from “bad boy acts” of the unconsolidated entity. | ||||||||||||||||||||
In some instances, the guarantees provided in connection with loans to an unconsolidated entity are joint and several. In these situations, the Company generally has a reimbursement agreement with its partner that provides that neither party is responsible for more than its proportionate share of the guarantee; however, if a joint venture partner does not have adequate financial resources to meet its obligations under the reimbursement agreement, the Company may be liable for more than its proportionate share. | ||||||||||||||||||||
The Company believes that, as of April 30, 2014, in the event it becomes legally obligated to perform under a guarantee of the obligation of an unconsolidated entity due to a triggering event, the collateral should be sufficient to repay a significant portion of the obligation. If it is not, the Company and its partners would need to contribute additional capital to the venture. At April 30, 2014, the unconsolidated entities that have guarantees related to debt had loan commitments aggregating $424.8 million and had borrowed an aggregate of $61.4 million. The term of these guarantees generally range from 19 months to 44 months. The Company estimates that the maximum potential exposure under these guarantees, if the full amount of the loan commitments were borrowed, would be $424.8 million before any reimbursement from the Company’s partners. Based on the amounts borrowed at April 30, 2014, the Company’s maximum potential exposure under these guarantees is estimated to be approximately $61.4 million before any reimbursement from the Company’s partners. | ||||||||||||||||||||
In addition, the Company has guaranteed approximately $11.4 million of ground lease payments and insurance deductibles for three joint ventures. | ||||||||||||||||||||
As of April 30, 2014, the estimated aggregate fair value of the guarantees was approximately $2.0 million. The Company has not made payments under any of the guarantees, nor has it been called upon to do so. | ||||||||||||||||||||
Variable Interest Entities | ||||||||||||||||||||
At April 30, 2014, the Company determined that three of its joint ventures were VIEs under the guidance within FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 810, “Consolidation.” The Company has, however, concluded that it was not the primary beneficiary of the VIEs because the power to direct the activities of these VIEs that most significantly impact their performance was shared by the Company and the VIEs’ other members. Business plans, budgets and other major decisions are required to be unanimously approved by all members. Management and other fees earned by the Company are nominal and believed to be at market rates and there is no significant economic disproportionality between the Company and other members. | ||||||||||||||||||||
The information presented below regarding the investments, commitments and guarantees in unconsolidated entities deemed to be VIEs is also included in the information provided above. At April 30, 2014 and October 31, 2013, the Company’s investments in its unconsolidated joint ventures deemed to be VIEs, which are included in “Investments in and advances to unconsolidated entities” in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, totaled $31.4 million and $22.9 million, respectively. At April 30, 2014, the maximum exposure of loss to the Company’s investments in unconsolidated joint ventures that are VIEs is limited to its investment in the unconsolidated VIEs, except with regard to $47.8 million of additional commitments to the VIEs and $9.3 million of guarantees under ground lease agreements. At October 31, 2013, the maximum exposure to loss of the Company’s investments in unconsolidated joint ventures that are VIEs is limited to its investment in the unconsolidated VIEs, except with regard to a $41.7 million additional commitment to fund the joint ventures and a $9.6 million guaranty of ground lease payments. | ||||||||||||||||||||

-2 | Differences between the Company’s net investment in unconsolidated entities and its underlying equity in the net assets of the entities is primarily a result of the acquisition price of an investment in a land development joint venture in fiscal 2012 which was in excess of the Company’s pro-rata share of the underlying equity; impairments related to the Company’s investments in unconsolidated entities; a loan made to one of the entities by the Company; interest capitalized on the Company’s investment; and distributions from entities in excess of the carrying amount of the Company’s net investment. | |||||||||||||||||||

The Company’s investments in distressed loans includes performing loans and non-performing loans and also includes investments in loan participations classified as secured borrowings under ASC 860, “Transfers and Servicing.” | ||||||||||||||||
For acquired distressed loans where it is probable that the Company will collect less than the contractual amounts due under the terms of the loan based, at least in part, on the assessment of the credit quality of the borrowers, the loans are accounted for under ASC 310-30, “Loans and Debt Securities Acquired with Deteriorated Credit Quality” (“ASC 310-30”). Under ASC 310-30, provided the Company does not presently have the intention to utilize real estate secured by the loans for use in its operations or to significantly improve the collateral for resale, the amount by which the future cash flows expected to be collected at the acquisition date exceeds the estimated fair value of the loan, or accretable yield, is recognized in other income - net over the estimated remaining life of the loan using a level yield methodology. The difference between the contractually required payments of the loan as of the acquisition date and the total cash flows expected to be collected, or nonaccretable difference, is not recognized. | ||||||||||||||||
The accretable yield activity for the Company’s investments in distressed loans accounted for under ASC 310-30 for the six-month and three-month periods ended April 30, 2014 and 2013 was as follows (amounts in thousands): | ||||||||||||||||

Additions primarily represent the reclassification to accretable yield from nonaccretable yield and the impact of impairments. Deletions primarily represent loan dispositions, which include foreclosure of the underlying collateral and resulting removal of the loans from the accretable yield portfolios, and reclassifications from accretable yield to nonaccretable yield. The reclassifications between accretable and nonaccretable yield and the accretion of interest income are based on various estimates regarding loan performance and the value of the underlying real estate securing the loans. As the Company continues to gather additional information regarding the loans and the underlying collateral, the accretable yield may change. Therefore, the amount of accretable income recorded in the six-month and three-month periods ended April 30, 2014 and 2013 is not necessarily indicative of future results. | ||||||||||||||||
The Company acquires distressed loans where it has determined that (1) it is possible to collect all contractual amounts due under the terms of the loan, (2) it expects to utilize the real estate secured by the loans in its operations, or (3) forecasted cash flows cannot be reasonably estimated. For non-performing loans acquired meeting any of these conditions, in accordance with ASC 310-10, “Receivable,” (“ASC 310-10”), the loans are classified as nonaccrual and interest income is not recognized. When a loan is classified as nonaccrual, any subsequent cash receipt is accounted for using the cost recovery method. For performing loans, payments are applied to principal and interest in accordance with the terms of the loan when received. As of April 30, 2014 and October 31, 2013, the Company had investments in non-performing loans, accounted for in accordance with ASC 310-10, of $11.5 million and $21.4 million, respectively. At October 31, 2013, the Company had investments in performing loans of $0.8 million. The Company had no investments in performing loans as of April 30, 2014. | ||||||||||||||||

The lattice-based option valuation model incorporates ranges of assumptions for inputs, which are disclosed in the table below. Expected volatilities were based on implied volatilities from traded options on the Company’s stock, historical volatility of the Company’s stock, and other factors. The expected lives of options granted were derived from the historical exercise patterns and anticipated future patterns and represent the period of time that options granted are expected to be outstanding; the range given below results from certain groups of employees exhibiting different behaviors. 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. | ||||||||||||||||
The weighted-average assumptions and the fair value used for stock option grants in fiscal 2014 and 2013 were as follows: | ||||||||||||||||
2014 | 2013 | |||||||||||||||

Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units | ||||||||||||||||
The Executive Compensation Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors (“Executive Compensation Committee”) approved awards of Performance-Based RSUs relating to shares of the Company’s common stock to certain of its senior management. The Performance-Based RSUs are based on the attainment of certain performance metrics of the Company in the fiscal year of grant if the performance targets are met. The number of shares underlying the Performance-Based RSUs that will be issued to the recipients may range from 90% to 110% of the base award depending on the Company’s actual performance as compared to the target performance goals. The Performance-Based RSUs vest over a four-year period provided the recipients continue to be employed by the Company or serve on the board of directors of the Company (as applicable) as specified in the award document. | ||||||||||||||||
The value of the Performance-Based RSUs was determined to be equal to the estimated number of shares of the Company’s common stock to be issued multiplied by the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) on the later of the date the performance goals were approved by the Executive Compensation Committee, or on the date the Performance-Based RSUs were granted (“Valuation Date”). The Company evaluates the performance goals quarterly and estimates the number of shares underlying the Performance-Based RSUs that are probable of being issued.

The Company uses ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” (“ASC 820”), to measure the fair value of certain assets and liabilities. ASC 820 provides a framework for measuring fair value in accordance with GAAP, establishes a fair value hierarchy which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value, and requires certain disclosures about fair value measurements. | ||||||||||||||||||
The fair value hierarchy is summarized below: | ||||||||||||||||||
Level 1: | Fair value determined based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. | |||||||||||||||||
Level 2: | Fair value determined using significant observable inputs, generally either quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities or quoted prices in markets that are not active. | |||||||||||||||||
Level 3: | Fair value determined using significant unobservable inputs, such as pricing models, discounted cash flows, or similar techniques. | |||||||||||||||||

At the end of the reporting period, the Company determines the fair value of its mortgage loans held for sale and the forward loan commitments it has entered into as a hedge against the interest rate risk of its mortgage loans using the market approach to determine fair value. The evaluation is based on the current market pricing of mortgage loans with similar terms and values as of the reporting date and by applying such pricing to the mortgage loan portfolio. The Company recognizes the difference between the fair value and the unpaid principal balance of mortgage loans held for sale as a gain or loss. In addition, the Company recognizes the fair value of its forward loan commitments as a gain or loss. These gains and losses are included in “Other income - net.” Interest income on mortgage loans held for sale is calculated based upon the stated interest rate of each loan and is included in “Other income - net.” | ||||||||||||||||||
IRLCs represent individual borrower agreements that commit the Company to lend at a specified price for a specified period as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the commitment contract. These commitments have varying degrees of interest rate risk. The Company utilizes best-efforts forward loan commitments (“Forward Commitments”) to hedge the interest rate risk of the IRLCs and residential mortgage loans held for sale. Forward Commitments represent contracts with third-party investors for the future delivery of loans whereby the Company agrees to make delivery at a specified future date at a specified price. The IRLCs and Forward Commitments are considered derivative financial instruments under ASC 815, “Derivatives and Hedging,” which requires derivative financial instruments to be recorded at fair value. The Company estimates the fair value of such commitments based on the estimated fair value of the underlying mortgage loan and, in the case of IRLCs, the probability that the mortgage loan will fund within the terms of the IRLC. The fair values of IRLCs and forward loan commitments are included in either “Receivables, prepaid expenses and other assets” or “Accrued expenses,” as appropriate. To manage the risk of non-performance of investors regarding the Forward Commitments, the Company assesses the credit worthiness of the investors on a periodic basis. | ||||||||||||||||||

Inventory | ||||||||||||||||||
The Company recognizes inventory impairment charges based on the difference in the carrying value of the inventory and its fair value at the time of the evaluation. The fair value of the aforementioned inventory was determined using Level 3 criteria. Estimated fair value is primarily determined by discounting the estimated future cash flow of each community. See Note 1, “Significant Accounting Policies, Inventory” in the audited financial statements contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended October 31, 2013 for additional information regarding the Company’s methodology on determining fair value. As further discussed in Note 1 in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, determining the fair value of a community’s inventory involves a number of variables, many of which are interrelated. If the Company used a different input for any of the various unobservable inputs used in its impairment analysis, the results of the analysis may have been different, absent any other changes. The table below summarizes, for the periods indicated, the ranges of certain quantitative unobservable inputs utilized in determining the fair value of impaired communities: | ||||||||||||||||||

Gibraltar’s REO was recorded at estimated fair value at the time it was acquired through foreclosure or deed in lieu actions using Level 3 inputs. The valuation techniques used to estimate fair value are third-party appraisals, broker opinions of value, or internal valuation methodologies (which may include discounted cash flows, capitalization rate analysis or comparable transactional analysis). Unobservable inputs used in estimating the fair value of REO assets are based upon the best information available under the circumstances and take into consideration the financial condition and operating results of the asset, local market conditions, the availability of capital, interest and inflation rates and other factors deemed appropriate by management. | ||||||||||||||||||

Commitments and Contingencies | ||||||||
Legal Proceedings | ||||||||
The Company is involved in various claims and litigation arising principally in the ordinary course of business. The Company believes that adequate provision for resolution of all current claims and pending litigation has been made for probable losses and the disposition of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations and liquidity or on its financial condition. | ||||||||
Investments in and Advances to Unconsolidated Entities | ||||||||
At April 30, 2014, the Company had investments in and advances to a number of unconsolidated entities, was committed to invest or advance additional funds, and had guaranteed a portion of the indebtedness and/or loan commitments of these entities. See Note 4, “Investments in and Advances to Unconsolidated Entities,” for more information regarding the Company’s commitments to these entities. | ||||||||
Land Purchase Commitments | ||||||||
Generally, the Company’s purchase agreements to acquire land parcels do not require the Company to purchase those land parcels, although the Company may, in some cases, forfeit any deposit balance outstanding if and when it terminates a purchase agreement. If market conditions are weak, approvals needed to develop the land are uncertain, or other factors exist that make the purchase undesirable, the Company may choose not to acquire the land. Whether an option and purchase agreement is legally terminated or not, the Company reviews the amount recorded for the land parcel subject to the option and purchase agreement to determine if the amount is recoverable. While the Company may not formally terminate the option and purchase agreements for those land parcels that it does not expect to acquire, it writes off any non-refundable deposits and costs previously capitalized to such land parcels in the periods that it determines such costs are not recoverable. | ||||||||
Information regarding the Company’s land purchase commitments, excluding the Shapell acquisition, as of the date indicated, is provided in the table below (amounts in thousands): | ||||||||

In addition, the Company expects to purchase approximately 3,800 additional home sites from several joint ventures in which it has interests; the purchase prices of these home sites will be determined at a future date. The Company will also receive approximately 935 home sites from one of its Land Development Joint Ventures in consideration of its previous investment in the joint venture. | ||||||||
At April 30, 2014, the Company had purchase commitments to acquire land for apartment developments of approximately $56.0 million, of which it had outstanding deposits in the amount of $3.6 million. | ||||||||
The Company has additional land parcels under option that have been excluded from the aforementioned aggregate purchase amounts since it does not believe that it will complete the purchase of these land parcels and no additional funds will be required from the Company to terminate these contracts. | ||||||||
Surety Bonds and Letters of Credit | ||||||||
At April 30, 2014, the Company had outstanding surety bonds amounting to $560.3 million, primarily related to its obligations to governmental entities to construct improvements in the Company’s communities. The Company estimates that $377.4 million of work remains on these improvements. The Company has an additional $71.8 million of surety bonds outstanding that guarantee other obligations of the Company. The Company does not believe that it is probable that any outstanding bonds will be drawn upon. | ||||||||
At April 30, 2014, the Company had outstanding letters of credit of $93.8 million, including $90.8 million under its Credit Facility and $3.0 million collateralized by restricted cash. These letters of credit were issued to secure various financial obligations of the Company including insurance policy deductibles and other claims, land deposits and security to complete improvements in communities which it is operating. The Company does not believe that it is probable that any outstanding letters of credit will be drawn upon. | ||||||||
Acquisition of Shapell Industries, Inc. | ||||||||
On February 4, 2014, the Company completed its previously announced acquisition of Shapell. The Purchase Agreement provides that SIPI will indemnify the Company for any loss arising out of or resulting from, among other things, (i) any liability (other than environmental losses, subject to certain exceptions) related to the Shapell Commercial Properties, and (ii) any liability (other than environmental losses, subject to certain exceptions) to the extent related to Shapell Mortgage, Inc. See Note 2 - “Acquisition” for more information regarding this acquisition. | ||||||||
Backlog | ||||||||
At April 30, 2014, the Company had agreements of sale outstanding to deliver 4,324 homes with an aggregate sales value of $3.21 billion. | ||||||||
Mortgage Commitments | ||||||||
The Company’s mortgage subsidiary provides mortgage financing for a portion of the Company’s home closings. For those home buyers to whom the Company’s mortgage subsidiary provides mortgages, it determines whether the home buyer qualifies for the mortgage based upon information provided by the home buyer and other sources. For those home buyers that qualify, the Company’s mortgage subsidiary provides the home buyer with a mortgage commitment that specifies the terms and conditions of a proposed mortgage loan based upon then-current market conditions. Prior to the actual closing of the home and funding of the mortgage, the home buyer will lock in an interest rate based upon the terms of the commitment. At the time of rate lock, the Company’s mortgage subsidiary agrees to sell the proposed mortgage loan to one of several outside recognized mortgage financing institutions (“investors”) that is willing to honor the terms and conditions, including interest rate, committed to the home buyer. The Company believes that these investors have adequate financial resources to honor their commitments to its mortgage subsidiary. | ||||||||

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

Fair Value of Financial Instruments, Policy [Policy Text Block] | ' | ||
Fair Value Disclosures | |||
The Company uses ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” (“ASC 820”), to measure the fair value of certain assets and liabilities. ASC 820 provides a framework for measuring fair value in accordance with GAAP, establishes a fair value hierarchy which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value, and requires certain disclosures about fair value measurements. | |||
The fair value hierarchy is summarized below: | |||
Level 1: | Fair value determined based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. | ||
Level 2: | Fair value determined using significant observable inputs, generally either quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities or quoted prices in markets that are not active. | ||
Level 3: | Fair value determined using significant unobservable inputs, such as pricing models, discounted cash flows, or similar techniques. | ||

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 would be consolidated. | |||
Consolidation Policy | ' | ||
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, 2013 balance sheet amounts and disclosures included herein have been derived from the Company’s October 31, 2013 audited financial statements. Since the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all the information and footnotes required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for complete financial statements, 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, 2013. 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 Company’s financial position as of April 30, 2014, the results of its operations for the six-month and three-month periods ended April 30, 2014 and 2013, and its cash flows for the six-month periods ended April 30, 2014 and 2013. 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 May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” (“ASU 2014-09”), which provides guidance for revenue recognition. ASU 2014-09 affects any entity that either enters into contracts with customers to transfer goods or services or enters into contracts for the transfer of nonfinancial assets and supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in Topic 605, “Revenue Recognition,” and most industry-specific guidance. This ASU also supersedes some cost guidance included in Subtopic 605-35, “Revenue Recognition-Construction-Type and Production-Type Contracts.” The standard’s core principle is that a company will recognize revenue when it transfers promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which a company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. In doing so, companies will need to use more judgment and make more estimates than under today’s guidance. These may include identifying performance obligations in the contract, estimating the amount of variable consideration to include in the transaction price and allocating the transaction price to each separate performance obligation. ASU 2014-09 is effective for the Company beginning November 1, 2017 and, at that time the Company may adopt the new standard under the full retrospective approach or the modified retrospective approach. Early adoption is not permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the method and impact the adoption of ASU 2014-09 will have on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements and disclosures. | |||
In April 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-08, “Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity” (“ASU 2014-08”), which changes the criteria for reporting discontinued operations while enhancing disclosures in this area. Pursuant to ASU 2014-08, only disposals representing a strategic shift, such as a major line of business, a major geographical area or a major equity investment, should be presented as a discontinued operation. If the disposal does qualify as a discontinued operation under ASU 2014-08, the entity will be required to provide expanded disclosures. ASU 2014-08 is effective for the Company beginning November 1, 2015. The adoption of ASU 2014-08 is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements or disclosures. | |||
In January 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-04, “Receivables - Troubled Debt Restructurings by Creditors” (“ASU 2014-04”), which clarifies when an in substance repossession or foreclosure of residential real estate property collateralizing a consumer mortgage loan has occurred. By doing so, this guidance helps determine when the creditor should derecognize the loan receivable and recognize the real estate property. ASU 2014-04 is effective prospectively for the Company beginning November 1, 2015. The adoption of ASU 2014-04 is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements or disclosures. | |||
In July 2013, the FASB issued ASU No. 2013-11, “Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit When a Net Operating Loss Carryforward, a Similar Tax Loss, or a Tax Credit Carryforward Exists” (“ASU 2013-11”). ASU 2013-11 is intended to end inconsistent practices regarding the presentation of unrecognized tax benefits when a net operating loss, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward is available to reduce the taxable income or tax payable that would result from the disallowance of a tax position. ASU 2013-11 is effective for the Company beginning November 1, 2014. The adoption of ASU 2013-11 is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements or disclosures. |
