TOLL BROTHERS REPORTS 4TH QTR AND FY 2008 RESULTS
Horsham, PA, December 4, 2008 — Toll Brothers, Inc. (NYSE:TOL) (www.tollbrothers.com), the nation’s leading builder of luxury homes, today reported a FY 2008 fourth quarter net loss of $78.8 million, or $0.49 per share diluted, which included pre-tax write-downs totaling $175.9 million. This compared to FY 2007’s fourth quarter net loss of $81.8 million, or $0.52 per share diluted, which included pre-tax write-downs totaling $314.9 million. The Company also reported, for its full-fiscal-year ended October 31, 2008, a net loss of $297.8 million, or $1.88 per share diluted, which included pre-tax write-downs totaling $848.9 million. This compared to FY 2007’s full-year net income of $35.7 million, or $0.22 per share diluted, which included pre-tax write-downs of $687.7 million.
Excluding write-downs, FY 2008’s fourth quarter earnings were $38.5 million, or $0.23 per share diluted, compared to FY 2007’s fourth quarter earnings of $118.2 million, or $0.72 per share diluted. Excluding write-downs, FY 2008’s twelve-month earnings were $232.0 million, or $1.41 per share diluted, compared to FY 2007’s twelve-month earnings of $464.6 million, or $2.83 per share diluted.
Robert I. Toll, chairman and chief executive officer, stated: “Obviously there are enormous challenges in our industry. But we believe the financial strength of our organization will put us in a good position to take advantage of opportunities — both in the near-term and when the economy recovers — that we expect will arise from the industry’s current distress. We will continue to persevere and do our best to navigate through these times, as we have through previous downturns, by focusing on our balance sheet and maintaining significant liquidity while searching for these opportunities.
“We are beginning to see some deals that are appealing in terms of quality but not price: We believe our strong capital position will give us an advantage in competing for them at the appropriate time. We ended FY 2008 with over $1.63 billion in cash and more than $1.32 billion available under our 32-bank credit facility, which matures in March 2011. And we have no public debt maturing until our second quarter of 2011. Our net debt-to-capital ratio(1) at October 31, 2008 stood at 12.6%, our lowest level ever, compared to 26.8% at October 31, 2007. And our Stockholders’ Equity at FYE 2008 was $3.24 billion, compared to $3.53 billion at FYE 2007.”

Other key results, most of which were previously reported on November 11, 2008, include:
| § | FY 2008’s fourth-quarter total revenues were $698.9 million, compared to FY 2007’s fourth-quarter total revenues of $1.17 billion. | |
| § | FY 2008’s twelve-month total revenues were $3.16 billion, compared to FY 2007’s twelve-month total revenues of $4.65 billion. | |
| § | FY 2008’s fourth-quarter net signed contracts were $266.7 million, compared to FY 2007’s fourth-quarter total of $365.3 million. | |
| § | FY 2008’s twelve-month net signed contracts were $1.61 billion, compared to FY 2007’s twelve-month total of $3.01 billion. | |
| § | FY 2008’s year-end backlog was $1.33 billion, compared to FY 2007’s year-end backlog of $2.85 billion. | |
| § | The Company, which has continued to renegotiate as well as reduce its optioned land positions, ended FY 2008 with approximately 39,800 lots owned and optioned, compared to approximately 59,250 at FYE 2007. | |
| § | The Company ended FY 2008 with 273 selling communities, compared to 315 at FYE 2007. The Company expects to be selling from approximately 255 communities by FYE 2009. |
Robert I. Toll, chairman and chief executive officer, continued: “The most frustrating aspect of FY 2008 was that the longer it went, the worse it got — this, no doubt, was due largely to the financial crisis which deepened over the course of the year.
“On the national level, new single-family housing starts have sunk to the lowest level since October 1981. Although builders have essentially eliminated spec production, the supply of unsold inventory still stands near record levels as new and existing home sales remain mired near historic lows while foreclosures add to available inventory.
“Many experts have suggested that falling home prices are at the root of the current financial crisis and that stabilization of home prices will help stem foreclosures, shore up the value of mortgage-backed securities, and, ultimately, stabilize the balance sheets of the world’s financial institutions.
“Two days before Thanksgiving 2008, the U.S. Government announced a plan to aid the housing market by pumping hundreds of billions of dollars into the mortgage market, an action that significantly lowered mortgage rates immediately. Perhaps this initiative, which is a positive first step, combined with already dramatically improved affordability, will be a catalyst to stimulate customer demand, stop the decline in house prices and restore confidence in the new home market.”
Joel H. Rassman, chief financial officer, stated: “With FY 2008 contracts of $1.61 billion and a year-end backlog of $1.33 billion, down 47% and 54%, respectively from one year ago, we expect that revenues in FY 2009 will be significantly below those of FY 2008.

“Given the numerous uncertainties related to sales paces, sales prices, mortgage markets, cancellations, market direction and the potential for and size of future impairments, in the current climate it is particularly difficult to provide guidance for FY 2009. As a result, we will not provide earnings guidance at this time. However, subject to the caveats above and those contained in our statement on forward-looking information included in this release and in our other public filings, we offer the following limited guidance.
“We currently estimate that we will deliver between 2,000 and 3,000 homes in FY 2009 at an average delivered price of between $600,000 and $625,000 per home. We believe that, as a result of continuing incentives and slower sales paces per community, our cost of sales as a percent of revenues, before taking into account write-downs, will be higher in FY 2009 than in FY 2008. Additionally, based on FY 2009’s lower projected revenues, our SG&A expenses, which we expect to be lower in absolute terms in FY 2009 than in FY 2008, will be higher as a percentage of revenues.”
Robert Toll continued: “As we look to the future, we see reduced competition from the small and mid-sized private builders who are our primary competitors in the luxury market. Their access to capital already appears to be severely constrained. We envision that, in the future, there will be fewer and more selective lenders serving our industry. Those lenders likely will gravitate to the home building companies that offer them the greatest security, the strongest balance sheets and the broadest array of potential business opportunities. We believe a less crowded playing field, combined with attractive long-term demographics, will reward those well-capitalized builders who can persevere through the current challenging environment.”
