STATEMENT ON FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION
Certain information included in this report or in other materials we have filed or will file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) (as well as information included in oral statements or other written statements made or to be made by us) contains or may contain forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. One can identify these statements by the fact that they do not relate to matters of a strictly historical or factual nature and generally discuss or relate to future events. These statements contain words such as “anticipate,” “estimate,” “expect,” “project,” “intend,” “plan,” “believe,” “may,” “can,” “could,” “might,” “should,” and other words or phrases of similar meaning. Such statements may include, but are not limited to, information related to: anticipated operating results; home deliveries; financial resources and condition; changes in revenues; changes in profitability; changes in margins; changes in accounting treatment; cost of revenues; selling, general, and administrative expenses; interest expense; inventory write-downs; unrecognized tax benefits; anticipated tax refunds; sales paces and prices; effects of home buyer cancellations; growth and expansion; joint ventures in which we are involved; anticipated results from our investments in unconsolidated entities; the ability to acquire land and pursue real estate opportunities; the ability to gain approvals and open new communities; the ability to sell homes and properties; the ability to deliver homes from backlog; the ability to secure materials and subcontractors; the ability to produce the liquidity and capital necessary to expand and take advantage of opportunities; and legal proceedings, investigations, and claims.
From time to time, forward-looking statements also are included in other reports on Forms 10-K, 10-Q, and 8-K; in press releases; in presentations; on our website; and in other materials released to the public. Any or all of the forward-looking statements included in this report and in any other reports or public statements made by us are not guarantees of future performance and may turn out to be inaccurate. This can occur as a result of incorrect assumptions or as a consequence of known or unknown risks and uncertainties. Many factors mentioned in this report or in other reports or public statements made by us, such as market conditions, government regulation, and the competitive environment, will be important in determining our future performance. Consequently, actual results may differ materially from those that might be anticipated from our forward-looking statements.
Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made. We undertake no obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise.
For a more detailed discussion of these factors, see the information under the captions “Risk Factors” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC and in this report.
When this report uses the words “we,” “us,” “our,” and the “Company,” they refer to Toll Brothers, Inc. and its subsidiaries, unless the context otherwise requires. References herein to fiscal year refer to our fiscal years ended or ending October 31.

TOLL BROTHERS, INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
1. Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Toll Brothers, Inc. (the “Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our”), a Delaware corporation, and its majority-owned subsidiaries. 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 we have effective control of the entity, in which case we would consolidate the entity.
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, 2016 balance sheet amounts and disclosures included herein have been derived from our October 31, 2016 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, we suggest that they be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2016 (“2016 Form 10-K”). 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 our financial position as of April 30, 2017; the results of our operations for the six-month and three-month periods ended April 30, 2017 and 2016; and our cash flows for the six-month periods ended April 30, 2017 and 2016. The results of operations for such interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.
Acquisition
In November 2016, we acquired substantially all of the assets and operations of Coleman Real Estate Holdings, LLC (“Coleman”) for $85.2 million in cash. The assets acquired were primarily inventory, including approximately 1,750 home sites owned or controlled through land purchase agreements. As part of the acquisition, we assumed contracts to deliver 128 homes with an aggregate value of $38.8 million. The average price of the undelivered homes at the date of acquisition was approximately $303,000. Our selling community count increased by 15 communities at the acquisition date. The acquisition of Coleman’s assets and operations was not material to our results of operations or financial condition.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In April 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2015-05, “Intangibles - Goodwill and Other - Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Customers’ Accounting for Fees Paid in a Cloud Computing Arrangement” (“ASU 2015-05”). ASU 2015-05 provides guidance for a customer to determine whether a cloud computing arrangement contains a software license or should be accounted for as a service contract. We adopted ASU 2015-05 on November 1, 2016, and we elected to adopt the standard prospectively. The adoption did not have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements or disclosures.
In February 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-02, “Consolidation (Topic 810): Amendments to the Consolidation Analysis” (“ASU 2015-02”), which eliminates the deferral granted to investment companies from applying the variable interest entities (“VIEs”) guidance and makes targeted amendments to the current consolidation guidance. The new guidance applies to all entities involved with limited partnerships or similar entities and requires re-evaluation of these entities under the revised guidance which may change previous consolidation conclusions. We adopted ASU 2015-02 on November 1, 2016, and the adoption did not have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements or disclosures.
In March 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-07, “Compensation - Retirement Benefits (Topic 715): Improving the Presentation of Net Periodic Pension Cost and Net Periodic Postretirement Benefit Cost” (“ASU 2017-07”). ASU 2017-07 requires an employer to report the service cost component of pension and other postretirement benefit costs in the same line item as other compensation costs arising from services rendered by the pertinent employees while the other components of net benefit cost are required to be presented in the income statement separately from the service cost component and outside a subtotal of income from operations. ASU 2017-07 is effective for our fiscal year beginning November 1, 2018. Early adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact that the adoption of ASU 2017-07 may have on our consolidated financial statements and disclosures.
In February 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-05, “Other Income - Gains and Losses from the Derecognition of Nonfinancial Assets (Subtopic 610-20): Clarifying the Scope of Asset Derecognition Guidance and Accounting for Partial Sales of Nonfinancial Assets” (“ASU 2017-05”). ASU 2017-05 is meant to clarify the scope of the original guidance within Subtopic

5



610-20 that was issued in connection with ASU 2014-09, as defined below, which provides guidance for recognizing gains and losses from the transfer of nonfinancial assets in contracts with noncustomers. ASU 2017-05 also added guidance for partial sales of nonfinancial assets. ASU 2017-05 is effective for our fiscal year beginning November 1, 2018 and we are required to adopt ASU 2017-05 concurrent with the adoption of ASU 2014-09. We are currently evaluating the impact that the adoption of ASU 2017-05 may have on our consolidated financial statements and disclosures.
In May 2014, the FASB issued 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. ASU 2014-09 supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 605, “Revenue Recognition,” and most industry-specific guidance. ASU 2014-09 also supersedes some cost guidance included in ASC 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 the current guidance. These judgments and estimates 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. In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-14 “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” (“ASU 2015-14”), which delays the effective date of ASU 2014-09 by one year. ASU 2014-09, as amended by ASU 2015-14, is effective for our fiscal year beginning November 1, 2018, and, at that time, we expect to adopt the new standard under the modified retrospective approach. We do not believe the adoption of ASU 2014-09 will have a material impact on the amount or timing of our home building revenues. We are continuing to evaluate the impact the adoption of ASU 2014-09 may have on other aspects of our business and on our consolidated financial statements and disclosures.
In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-01, “Business Combinations (Topic 805): Clarifying the Definition of a Business” (“ASU 2017-01”), which provides a more robust framework for determining whether transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions (or disposals) of assets or businesses. ASU 2017-01 is effective for our fiscal year beginning November 1, 2018. We are currently evaluating the impact that the adoption of ASU 2017-01 may have on our consolidated financial statements and disclosures.
In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-09, “Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting” (“ASU 2016-09”). ASU 2016-09 simplifies several aspects related to the accounting for share-based payment transactions, including the accounting for income taxes and forfeitures, statutory tax withholding requirements and classification on the statement of cash flows. ASU 2016-09 is effective for our fiscal year beginning November 1, 2017. We are currently evaluating the impact that the adoption of ASU 2016-09 may have on our consolidated financial statements and disclosures.
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, “Leases” (“ASU 2016-02”), which requires an entity to recognize assets and liabilities on the balance sheet for the rights and obligations created by leased assets and provide additional disclosures. ASU 2016-02 is effective for our fiscal year beginning November 1, 2019, and, at that time, we will adopt the new standard using a modified retrospective approach. We are currently evaluating the impact that the adoption of ASU 2016-02 may have on our consolidated financial statements and disclosures.

At April 30, 2017, we evaluated our land purchase contracts, including those to acquire land for apartment developments, to determine whether any of the selling entities were VIEs and, if they were, whether we were the primary beneficiary of any of them. Under these land purchase contracts, we do not possess legal title to the land; our risk is generally limited to deposits paid to the sellers and predevelopment costs incurred; and the creditors of the sellers generally have no recourse against us. At April 30, 2017, we determined that 87 land purchase contracts, with an aggregate purchase price of $1.02 billion, on which we had made aggregate deposits totaling $51.7 million, were VIEs, and that we were not the primary beneficiary of any VIE related to our land purchase contracts. At October 31, 2016, we determined that 78 land purchase contracts, with an aggregate purchase price of $987.3 million, on which we had made aggregate deposits totaling $44.1 million, were VIEs and that we were not the primary beneficiary of any VIE related to our land purchase contracts.

Land Development Joint Ventures
During the six months ended April 30, 2017, our Land Development Joint Ventures sold approximately 509 lots and recognized revenues of $100.8 million. We acquired 162 of these lots for $46.2 million. Our share of the joint venture income from the lots we acquired of $7.0 million was deferred by reducing our basis in those lots acquired. The Company recognized impairment charges in connection with one Land Development Joint Venture of $2.0 million for the six months ended April 30, 2017. During the six months ended April 30, 2016, our Land Development Joint Ventures sold approximately 539 lots and recognized revenues of $98.7 million. We acquired 112 of these lots for $35.3 million. Our share of the income from the lots we acquired of $5.2 million was deferred by reducing our basis in those lots acquired. There were no impairment charges recognized for the six months ending April 30, 2016.
During the three months ended April 30, 2017, our Land Development Joint Ventures sold approximately 206 lots and recognized revenues of $44.6 million. We acquired 60 of these lots for $21.2 million. Our share of the joint venture income of $3.3 million from the lots we acquired was deferred by reducing our basis in those acquired lots. The Company recognized impairment charges in connection with one Land Development Joint Venture of $2.0 million for the three months ended April 30, 2017. During the three months ended April 30, 2016, our Land Development Joint Ventures sold approximately 456 lots and recognized revenues of $86.1 million. We acquired 103 of these lots for $34.5 million. Our share of the income of $5.0 million from the lots we acquired was deferred by reducing our basis in those acquired lots. There were no impairment charges recognized for the three months ended April 30, 2016.
In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2015, we entered into a joint venture with an unrelated party to purchase and develop a parcel of land located in Irvine, California. The joint venture expects to develop approximately 840 home sites on this land in multiple phases. We have a 50% interest in this joint venture. The joint venture intends to develop the property and sell approximately 50% of the value of the home sites to each of the members of the joint venture. At April 30, 2017, we had an investment of $178.5 million in this joint venture and were committed to make additional contributions to this joint venture of up to $5.0 million. To finance a portion of the land purchase, the joint venture entered into a $320.0 million purchase money mortgage

8



with the seller. In December 2016, the joint venture entered into a $200.0 million loan agreement and each member made a capital contribution of $80.0 million. A portion of the proceeds from the loan in addition to the capital contributions made by the members were used to repay the purchase money mortgage. At April 30, 2017, this joint venture had $189.2 million of outstanding borrowings under the loan.
Home Building Joint Ventures
Our Home Building Joint Ventures are delivering homes in New York City and Jupiter, Florida. During the six months ended April 30, 2017, our Home Building Joint Ventures delivered 143 homes with a sales value of $370.6 million. During the six months ended April 30, 2016, our Home Building Joint Ventures delivered 40 homes with a sales value of $37.5 million.
During the three months ended April 30, 2017 and 2016, our Home Building Joint Ventures delivered 56 homes with a sales value of $153.2 million and 21 homes with a sales value of $21.5 million, respectively.
In December 2016, we entered into a joint venture with an unrelated party to complete the development of a high-rise luxury condominium project in New York City. Before the formation of this joint venture, we acquired the property and incurred approximately $176.0 million of land and land development costs. The joint venture, in which we have a 20% interest, purchased the property from us at our cost, a portion of which was financed by a $236.5 million construction loan obtained by the joint venture. From the sale and financing, we received proceeds of $148.0 million, of which $106.1 million was held in escrow by our captive title company at October 31, 2016 and was included in “Receivables, prepaid expenses, and other assets” on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet at October 31, 2016. At April 30, 2017, we had an investment of $30.0 million in this joint venture and the joint venture had $82.7 million of outstanding borrowings under the construction loan.
Rental Property Joint Ventures
As of April 30, 2017, our Rental Property Joint Ventures owned 12 for-rent apartment projects, which are located in the metro Boston to metro Washington, D.C. corridor. At April 30, 2017, our joint ventures had approximately 2,950 units that were occupied or ready for occupancy, 600 units in the lease-up stage, and 1,400 units under active development. In addition, we either own, have under contract, or under a letter of intent approximately 5,590 units. We intend to develop these units with joint venture partners in the future.
In the second quarter of fiscal 2017, we sold a 25% interest in one of our Rental Property Joint Ventures to an unrelated third party. In connection with the sale, we, along with our partner, recapitalized the joint venture and refinanced the existing $112.2 million construction loan with a $133.0 million, 10-year fixed rate loan. As a result of these transactions, we received cash of $42.9 million and recognized a gain of $20.5 million in the six and three months ended April 30, 2017 which is included in “Income from unconsolidated entities” in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income. At April 30, 2017, we had a 25% interest and an $8.4 million investment in this joint venture.
In the first quarter of fiscal 2017, we sold a 25% interest in another one of our Rental Property Joint Ventures to an unrelated third party. In connection with the sale, we, along with our partner, recapitalized the joint venture and refinanced the existing $54.1 million construction loan with a $56.0 million, 10-year fixed rate loan. As a result of these transactions, we received cash of $12.0 million and recognized a gain of $6.2 million in the three months ended January 31, 2017 and the six months ended April 30, 2017, which is included in “Income from unconsolidated entities” in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income. At April 30, 2017, we had a 25% interest and a $3.3 million investment in this joint venture.
In the second quarter of fiscal 2016, we entered into a joint venture with an unrelated party to develop a 525-unit luxury for-rent residential apartment building near Union Station in Washington, D.C. Prior to the formation of this joint venture, we acquired the land, through a 100%-owned entity, and incurred $35.1 million of land and land development costs. Our partner acquired a 50% interest in this entity for $20.2 million and we subsequently received cash of $18.7 million to align the capital accounts of each of the partners of the joint venture. In the third quarter of fiscal 2016, as a result of the sale of 50% of our interest to our partner, we recognized a gain of $3.0 million. Due to our continued involvement in the joint venture through our ownership interest, we deferred an additional $3.0 million of the gain on the sale. At April 30, 2017, we had an investment of $29.3 million in this joint venture and expect to make additional investments of approximately $0.3 million for the development of this project. In November 2016, the joint venture entered into a $130.6 million construction loan agreement. At April 30, 2017, there were $6.8 million of outstanding borrowings under the construction loan agreement.
In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2016, we entered into a joint venture with an unrelated party to develop a 390-unit luxury for-rent residential apartment building in a Boston, Massachusetts suburb, on land that we were under contract to purchase. We have a 25% interest in this joint venture. On October 20, 2016, the joint venture entered into a $91.0 million construction loan agreement with a bank to finance the development of this project. At April 30, 2017, there were no outstanding borrowings

9



under the construction loan agreement. At April 30, 2017, we had an investment of $10.3 million in this joint venture and expect to make additional investments of approximately $1.2 million for the development of this project.
We have an investment in a joint venture in which we have a 50% interest to develop a luxury hotel in conjunction with a high-rise luxury condominium project in New York City being developed by a related Home Building Joint Venture. At April 30, 2017, we had invested $37.4 million in this joint venture. In December 2016, this joint venture entered into an $80.0 million, three-year term loan agreement. The proceeds from the term loan, along with proceeds from the closing of condominium units at the Home Building Joint Venture, were used to repay an existing construction loan. At April 30, 2017, this joint venture had $80.0 million of outstanding borrowings under the term loan.
In 1998, we formed the Trust to invest in commercial real estate opportunities. The Trust is effectively owned one-third by us; one-third by current and former members of our senior management; and one-third by an unrelated party. As of April 30, 2017, our investment in the Trust was zero as cumulative distributions received from the Trust have been in excess of the carrying amount of our net investment. We provide development, finance, and management services to the Trust and recognized fees under the terms of various agreements in the amount of $0.8 million in both the six-month periods ended April 30, 2017 and 2016. We recognized fees of $0.4 million in both the three-month periods ended April 30, 2017 and 2016. In the first quarter of fiscal 2016, we received a $2.0 million distribution from the Trust, which is included in “Income from unconsolidated entities” in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income. No distributions were received from the Trust in the first half of fiscal 2017.
Gibraltar Joint Ventures
In the second quarter of fiscal 2016, we, through our wholly owned subsidiary, Gibraltar Capital and Asset Management, LLC (“Gibraltar”), entered into two ventures with an institutional investor to provide builders and developers with land banking and venture capital. We have a 25% interest in these ventures. These ventures will finance builders’ and developers’ acquisition and development of land and home sites and pursue other complementary investment strategies. We may invest up to $100.0 million in these ventures. As of April 30, 2017, we had an investment of $10.3 million in these ventures.
In addition, in the second quarter of fiscal 2016, we entered into a separate venture with the same institutional investor to purchase, from Gibraltar, certain foreclosed real estate owned (“REO”) and distressed loans for $24.1 million. We have a 24% interest in this venture. In the three months ended April 30, 2016, we recognized a gain of $1.3 million from the sale of these assets to the venture. At April 30, 2017, we have a $4.9 million investment in this venture and are committed to invest an additional $9.6 million, if necessary.
Guarantees
The unconsolidated entities in which we have investments generally finance their activities with a combination of partner equity and debt financing. In some instances, we and our partners have guaranteed debt of certain unconsolidated entities. These guarantees may include any or all of the following: (i) project completion guarantees, including any cost overruns; (ii) repayment guarantees, generally covering a percentage of the outstanding loan; (iii) carry cost guarantees, which cover costs such as interest, real estate taxes, and insurance; (iv) an environmental indemnity provided to the lender that holds the lender harmless from and against losses arising from the discharge of hazardous materials from the property and non-compliance with applicable environmental laws; 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, we generally have a reimbursement agreement with our partner that provides that neither party is responsible for more than its proportionate share or agreed upon share of the guarantee; however, if a joint venture partner does not have adequate financial resources to meet its obligations under the reimbursement agreement, we may be liable for more than our proportionate share.
We believe that, as of April 30, 2017, in the event we become legally obligated to perform under a guarantee of an obligation of an unconsolidated entity due to a triggering event, the collateral in such entity should be sufficient to repay a significant portion of the obligation. If it is not, we and our partners would need to contribute additional capital to the venture. At April 30, 2017, certain unconsolidated entities have loan commitments aggregating $1.32 billion, of which, if the full amount of the debt obligations were borrowed, we estimate $194.0 million to be our maximum exposure related to repayment and carry cost guarantees. At April 30, 2017, the unconsolidated entities had borrowed an aggregate of $887.6 million, of which we estimate $157.8 million to be our maximum exposure related to repayment and carry cost guarantees. The terms of these guarantees generally range from 1 month to 43 months. These maximum exposure estimates do not take into account any recoveries from the underlying collateral or any reimbursement from our partners.
In addition, we have guaranteed approximately $2.2 million of ground lease payments and insurance deductibles for three joint ventures.

10



As of April 30, 2017, the estimated aggregate fair value of the guarantees provided by us related to debt and other obligations of certain unconsolidated entities was approximately $4.4 million. We have not made payments under any of the guarantees, nor have we been called upon to do so.
Variable Interest Entities
At April 30, 2017 and October 31, 2016, we determined that five and three, respectively, of our joint ventures were VIEs under the guidance of ASC 810, “Consolidation.” However, we have concluded that we were not the primary beneficiary of these VIEs because the power to direct the activities of such VIEs that most significantly impact their performance was either shared by us and such VIEs’ other partners or such activities were controlled by our partner. For VIEs where the power to direct significant activities is shared, business plans, budgets, and other major decisions are required to be unanimously approved by all members. Management and other fees earned by us are nominal and believed to be at market rates, and there is no significant economic disproportionality between us and the 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, 2017 and October 31, 2016, our investments in the unconsolidated joint ventures deemed to be VIEs, which is included in “Investments in unconsolidated entities” in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, totaled $18.8 million and $16.4 million, respectively. At April 30, 2017, the maximum exposure of loss to our investments in the unconsolidated joint ventures that are VIEs was limited to our investments in the unconsolidated VIEs, except with regard to $9.6 million of additional commitments to the VIEs. At October 31, 2016, the maximum exposure of loss to our investments in the unconsolidated joint ventures that are VIEs was limited to our investments in the unconsolidated VIEs, except with regard to $70.0 million of loan guarantees and $1.4 million of additional commitments to the VIEs. Of our potential exposure for these loan guarantees at October 31, 2016, $14.3 million is related to repayment and carry cost guarantees.

Senior Unsecured Term Loan
On February 3, 2014, we entered into a $485.0 million, five-year senior unsecured term loan facility (the “Term Loan Facility”) with a syndicate of banks. We borrowed the full amount of the Term Loan Facility on February 3, 2014. In October 2014, we increased the Term Loan Facility by $15.0 million and borrowed the full amount of the increase. The Term Loan Facility, as amended, matures on August 2, 2021. At April 30, 2017, the interest rate on borrowings was 2.39% per annum.
We and substantially all of our 100%-owned home building subsidiaries are guarantors under the Term Loan Facility. The Term Loan Facility contains substantially the same financial covenants as our New Credit Facility, as described below.
Credit Facility
On August 1, 2013, we entered into a $1.035 billion, unsecured, five-year revolving credit facility (the “Credit Facility”). The commitments under the Credit Facility were scheduled to expire on August 1, 2018. On May 19, 2016, we entered into a new $1.215 billion (subsequently increased to $1.295 billion), unsecured, five-year revolving credit facility (the “New Credit Facility”) with a syndicate of banks (the “Aggregate Credit Commitment”) and terminated the Credit Facility. The commitments under the New Credit Facility are scheduled to expire on May 19, 2021. We and substantially all of our 100%-owned home building subsidiaries are guarantors under the New Credit Facility.
Under the terms of the New Credit Facility, at April 30, 2017, our maximum leverage ratio (as defined in the credit agreement) may not exceed 1.75 to 1.00, and we are required to maintain a minimum tangible net worth (as defined in the credit agreement) of no less than approximately $2.71 billion. Under the terms of the New Credit Facility, at April 30, 2017, our leverage ratio was approximately 0.70 to 1.00, and our tangible net worth was approximately $4.41 billion. Based upon the limitations related to our repurchase of common stock in the New Credit Facility, our ability to repurchase our common stock was limited to approximately $2.40 billion as of April 30, 2017.
At April 30, 2017, we had no outstanding borrowings under the New Credit Facility and had outstanding letters of credit of approximately $120.0 million under the New Credit Facility. At April 30, 2017, the interest rate on borrowings under the New Credit Facility would have been 2.50% per annum.
Loans Payable – Other
Our “Loans payable – other” primarily represent purchase money mortgages on properties we acquired that the seller had financed and various revenue bonds that were issued by government entities on our behalf to finance community infrastructure and our manufacturing facilities. At April 30, 2017, the weighted-average interest rate on “Loans payable – other” was 3.75% per annum.
Senior Notes
At April 30, 2017, we, through Toll Brothers Finance Corp., had nine issues of Senior Notes outstanding with an aggregate principal amount of $3.01 billion. In March 2017, the Company issued $300 million principal amount of 4.875% Senior Notes due 2027. The Company received $297.2 million of net proceeds from the issuance of these Senior Notes.
Mortgage Company Loan Facility
In October 2016, TBI Mortgage® Company (“TBI Mortgage”), our wholly owned mortgage subsidiary, entered into a Mortgage Warehousing Agreement (“Warehousing Agreement”) with a syndicate of banks. The purpose of the Warehousing Agreement is to finance the origination of mortgage loans by TBI Mortgage, and the Warehousing Agreement is accounted for as a secured borrowing under ASC 860, “Transfers and Servicing.” The Warehousing Agreement provides for loan purchases up to $150.0

13



million, subject to certain sublimits. In addition, the Warehousing Agreement provides for an accordion feature under which TBI Mortgage may request that the aggregate commitments under the Warehousing Agreement be increased to an amount up to $210.0 million for a short period of time. The Warehousing Agreement expires on October 27, 2017, and borrowings thereunder bear interest at LIBOR plus 2.00% per annum. At April 30, 2017, the interest rate on the Warehousing Agreement was 3.00% per annum. At April 30, 2017 and October 31, 2016, there was $61.1 million and $210.0 million, respectively, outstanding under the Warehousing Agreement, respectively, which are included in liabilities in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

As previously disclosed in Note 6, “Accrued Expenses” in our 2016 Form 10-K, we reviewed communities in Pennsylvania and Delaware (which are in our Mid-Atlantic region) and determined that we needed to make repairs primarily to older homes in certain of these communities relating to stucco and other water intrusion claims. Each quarter, we review and update our assumptions to the estimates used in determining our estimated liability for these claims. This review and update includes an analysis to determine an estimated number of claims likely to be received and the estimated costs to resolve these claims. This analysis involves many factors including: the number of communities involved; the closing dates of the homes in each community; the number of claims received to date; our inspection of homes; an estimate of the number of homes we expect to repair; the type and cost of repairs that have been performed in each community; the estimated costs to remediate pending and future claims in each community; the expected recovery from our insurance carriers and others; and the amount of warranty and self-insurance reserves already recorded. Due to the degree of judgment required and the potential for variability in the underlying assumptions, it is reasonably possible that our actual costs could differ from those estimated, such differences could be material, and, therefore, we are unable to estimate the range of any such differences.
Based upon our reviews for the six month and three month periods ended April 30, 2017, we determined that no adjustments to our previous estimates were needed. Based upon our review for the three months ended April 30, 2016, we determined that our estimated costs had increased and we recognized an additional charge of $2.5 million in the six month and three month periods ended April 30, 2016. As of April 30, 2017, we recognized cumulative charges of approximately $171.8 million for water intrusion claims; the estimated aggregate cost of these claims is $324.4 million, of which we expect to recover approximately $152.6 million from outside insurance carriers and suppliers.
At April 30, 2017 and October 31, 2016, our estimated remaining liability to be expended for the aforementioned known and unknown stucco and other water intrusion claims was $282.8 million and $298.0 million, respectively, of which we expect to recover a total of approximately $130.4 million and $141.7 million, respectively, from outside insurance carriers and others.

7. Income Taxes
We recorded income tax provisions of $113.9 million and $95.0 million for the six months ended April 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively. The effective tax rate was 36.9% for the six months ended April 30, 2017 and 2016. For the three months ended April 30, 2017 and 2016, we recorded an income tax provision of $74.6 million and $51.3 million, respectively. The effective tax rate for the three months ended April 30, 2017 was 37.4%, compared to 36.6% for the three months ended April 30, 2016. The income tax provisions for all periods included the provision for state income taxes and interest accrued on anticipated tax assessments, offset by tax benefits related to the utilization of domestic production activities deductions and other permanent differences.
We currently operate in 20 states and are subject to various state tax jurisdictions. We estimate our state tax liability based upon the individual taxing authorities’ regulations, estimates of income by taxing jurisdiction, and our ability to utilize certain tax-saving strategies. We estimate our rate for the full fiscal year 2017 for state income taxes will be 7.5%. Our state income tax rate for the full fiscal year 2016 was 7.0%.
For state tax purposes, due to past and projected losses in certain jurisdictions where we do not have carryback potential and/or cannot sufficiently forecast future taxable income, we recognized net cumulative valuation allowances against our state deferred tax assets of $32.4 million and $32.2 million as of April 30, 2017 and October 31, 2016, respectively.
At April 30, 2017, we had $26.2 million of gross unrecognized tax benefits, including interest and penalties. If these unrecognized tax benefits were to reverse in the future, they would have a beneficial impact on our effective tax rate at that time. During the next 12 months, it is reasonably possible that our unrecognized tax benefits will change, but we are not able to provide a range of such change. The possible changes would be principally due to the expiration of tax statutes, settlements with taxing jurisdictions, increases due to new tax positions taken, and the accrual of estimated interest and penalties.
8. Stock-Based Benefit Plans
We grant stock options and various types of restricted stock units to our employees and our nonemployee directors. Additionally, we have an employee stock purchase plan that allows employees to purchase our stock at a discount.
Information regarding the amount of total stock-based compensation expense and tax benefit recognized by us, for the periods indicated, is as follows (amounts in thousands):

9. Stock Repurchase Program and Cash Dividend
On May 23, 2016, our Board of Directors terminated a prior share repurchase program and authorized, under a new repurchase program, the repurchase of 20 million shares of our common stock in open market transactions or otherwise for general corporate purposes, including to obtain shares for the Company’s equity award and other employee benefit plans. The Board of Directors did not fix any expiration date for this repurchase program.

Land sale revenues for the six months ended April 30, 2017 includes $143.3 million related to an in substance real estate sale transaction which resulted in a new Home Building Joint Venture in which we have a 20% interest. No gain or loss was realized on the sale. See Note 3, “Investments in Unconsolidated Entities,” for more information on this transaction.
13. Commitments and Contingencies
Legal Proceedings
We are involved in various claims and litigation arising principally in the ordinary course of business. We believe that adequate provision for resolution of all current claims and pending litigation has been made for probable losses. We believe that the disposition of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and liquidity or on our financial condition.
In April 2017, the SEC informed the Company that it was conducting an investigation and requested that we voluntarily produce documents and information relating to our estimated repair costs for stucco and other water intrusion claims in fiscal 2016. As previously described in our 2016 Form 10-K, in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2016, our estimated liability for these water intrusion claims increased significantly. The Company will produce documents and information in response to this request. Management cannot at this time predict the eventual scope or outcome of this matter.
Investments in Unconsolidated Entities
At April 30, 2017, we had investments in a number of unconsolidated entities, were committed to invest or advance additional funds, and had guaranteed a portion of the indebtedness and/or loan commitments of these entities. See Note 3, “Investments in Unconsolidated Entities,” for more information regarding our commitments to these entities.
Land Purchase Commitments
Generally, our purchase agreements to acquire land parcels do not require us to purchase those land parcels, although we, in some cases, forfeit any deposit balance outstanding if and when we terminate a purchase agreement. Information regarding our land purchase commitments, as of the dates indicated, is provided in the table below (amounts in thousands):

In addition, we expect to purchase approximately 3,600 additional home sites over a number of years from several joint ventures in which we have interests; the purchase prices of these home sites will be determined at a future date.
At April 30, 2017, we also had purchase commitments to acquire land for apartment developments of approximately $104.0 million, of which we had outstanding deposits in the amount of $4.7 million.
We have additional land parcels under option that have been excluded from the aforementioned aggregate purchase amounts since we do not believe that we will complete the purchase of these land parcels and no additional funds will be required from us to terminate these contracts.
Surety Bonds and Letters of Credit
At April 30, 2017, we had outstanding surety bonds amounting to $685.5 million, primarily related to our obligations to governmental entities to construct improvements in our communities. We estimate that $347.9 million of work remains on these improvements. We have an additional $138.6 million of surety bonds outstanding that guarantee other obligations. We do not believe that it is probable that any outstanding bonds will be drawn upon.
At April 30, 2017, we had outstanding letters of credit of $120.0 million under our New Credit Facility. These letters of credit were issued to secure our various financial obligations, including insurance policy deductibles and other claims, land deposits, and security to complete improvements in communities in which we are operating. We do not believe that it is probable that any outstanding letters of credit will be drawn upon.
Backlog
At April 30, 2017, we had agreements of sale outstanding to deliver 6,018 homes with an aggregate sales value of $5.00 billion.

14. Information on Segments
We operate in two segments: Traditional Home Building and Urban Infill. We build and sell detached and attached homes in luxury residential communities located in affluent suburban markets that cater to move-up, empty-nester, active-adult, age-qualified, and second-home buyers in the United States (“Traditional Home Building”). We also build and sell homes in urban infill markets through Toll Brothers City Living® (“City Living”).

The obligations of the Subsidiary Issuer to pay principal, premiums, if any, and interest are guaranteed jointly and severally on a senior basis by us and substantially all of our 100%-owned home building subsidiaries (the “Guarantor Subsidiaries”). The guarantees are full and unconditional. Our non-home building subsidiaries and several of our home building subsidiaries (together, the “Nonguarantor Subsidiaries”) do not guarantee these Senior Notes. The Subsidiary Issuer generates no operating revenues and does not have any independent operations other than the financing of our other subsidiaries by lending the proceeds from the above-described debt issuances. The indentures under which the Senior Notes were issued provide that any of our subsidiaries that provide a guarantee of our obligations under the New 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 our 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 our consolidated net worth as of the end of our most recent fiscal quarter; (iv) such release would not have a material adverse effect on our and our subsidiaries’ home building business; and (v) the Guarantor Subsidiary is released from its guaranty under the New Credit Facility. If there are no guarantors under the New Credit Facility, all Guarantor Subsidiaries under the indentures will be released from their guarantees.
During the preparation of the Form 10-Q for the three months ended January 31, 2017, we identified an immaterial revision that was necessary to certain columns in the consolidating statements for the year ended October 31, 2016. The revision impacted the Guarantor and Nonguarantor Subsidiaries columns in the Consolidating Statement of Operations and Comprehensive Income for the year ended October 31, 2016 and the Nonguarantor Subsidiaries and Eliminations columns in the Condensed Consolidating Balance Sheet as of October 31, 2016, by offsetting amounts. Corresponding changes to the Consolidating Statement of Cash Flows for the year ended October 31, 2016 were also made. The revision had no impact on any consolidated totals of such consolidating statements.
Accordingly, the Consolidating Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income and of Cash Flows for the year ended October 31, 2016 and the Condensed Consolidating Balance Sheet as of October 31, 2016 have been revised to reflect the immaterial adjustment described above and are included hereunder.
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 investors.
Supplemental consolidating financial information of Toll Brothers, Inc., the Subsidiary Issuer, the Guarantor Subsidiaries, the Nonguarantor Subsidiaries, and the eliminations to arrive at Toll Brothers, Inc. on a consolidated basis is presented below ($ amounts in thousands).

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (“MD&A”)
This discussion and analysis is based on, should be read together with, and is qualified in its entirety by, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes, as well as our consolidated financial statements, notes thereto, and the related MD&A contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2016 (“2016 Form 10-K”). It also should be read in conjunction with the disclosure under “Statement on Forward-Looking Information” in this report.
Unless otherwise stated, net contracts signed represents a number or value equal to the gross number or value of contracts signed during the relevant period, less the number or value of contracts canceled during the relevant period, which includes contracts that were signed during the relevant period and in prior periods. Backlog consists of homes under contract but not yet delivered to our home buyers.
OVERVIEW
Financial and Operational Highlights
In the six-month period ended April 30, 2017, we recognized $2.28 billion of revenues and net income of $195.1 million, as compared to $2.04 billion of revenues and net income of $162.2 million in the six-month period ended April 30, 2016. In the three-month period ended April 30, 2017, we recognized $1.36 billion of revenues and net income of $124.6 million, as compared to $1.12 billion of revenues and net income of $89.1 million in the three-month period ended April 30, 2016.
In the six-month periods ended April 30, 2017 and 2016, the value of net contracts signed was $3.26 billion (4,033 homes) and $2.73 billion (3,243 homes), respectively. In the three-month periods ended April 30, 2017 and 2016, the value of net contracts signed was $2.02 billion (2,511 homes) and $1.65 billion (1,993 homes), respectively.
The value of our backlog at April 30, 2017 was $5.00 billion (6,018 homes), as compared to our backlog at April 30, 2016 of $4.19 billion (4,940 homes). Our backlog at October 31, 2016 was $3.98 billion (4,685 homes).
At April 30, 2017, we had $691.3 million of cash and cash equivalents on hand and approximately $1.18 billion available under our $1.295 billion revolving credit facility (the “New Credit Facility”) that matures in May 2021. At April 30, 2017, we had no outstanding borrowings under the New Credit Facility. We did have approximately $120.0 million of outstanding letters of credit under the New Credit Facility.
At April 30, 2017, we owned or controlled through options approximately 46,600 home sites, as compared to approximately 45,400 at April 30, 2016; 48,800 at October 31, 2016; and 44,300 at October 31, 2015. Of the approximately 46,600 total home sites that we owned or controlled through options at April 30, 2017, we owned approximately 32,600 and controlled approximately 14,000 through options. Of the 32,600 home sites owned or controlled through options, approximately 18,000 were substantially improved. In addition, at April 30, 2017, we expect to purchase approximately 3,600 additional home sites over a number of years from several joint ventures in which we have interests, at prices not yet determined.
At April 30, 2017, we were selling from 316 communities, compared to 299 at April 30, 2016; 310 at October 31, 2016; and 288 at October 31, 2015.
At April 30, 2017, our total stockholders’ equity and our debt to total capitalization ratio were $4.45 billion and 0.45 to 1.00, respectively.
In November 2016, we acquired substantially all of the assets and operations of Coleman Real Estate Holdings, LLC (“Coleman”) for $85.2 million in cash. The assets acquired were primarily inventory, including approximately 1,750 home sites owned or controlled through land purchase agreements. As part of the acquisition, we assumed contracts to deliver 128 homes with an aggregate value of $38.8 million. The average price of the undelivered homes at the date of acquisition was approximately $303,000. Our selling community count increased by 15 communities at the acquisition date.
Our Business Environment and Current Outlook
The current housing market continues to strengthen and grow. We believe solid and improving demand for homes, low interest rates, the limited supply of resale and new homes, and the financial strength of our affluent buyer base are driving our growth. Our buyers are further benefiting from a solid employment picture, strong consumer confidence, a robust stock market, and increasing equity in their existing homes.
We believe we are also benefiting from the appeal and national recognition of our brand and a lack of large scale competition in the affordable end of the luxury new home market. The breadth of products we offer enables us to appeal to a wide range of

32



demographic groups, including affluent move-up, empty-nester and millennial buyers, are also fueling demand for our homes. Furthermore, our home designs and our customization program differentiate us within our segment of the luxury market.
Our broad buyer base, combined with our strong balance sheet, and well located communities, is enabling us to outpace our peers in many metrics. We continue to believe that many of our communities are in desirable locations that are difficult to replace and that many of these communities have substantial embedded value that may be realized in the future as the housing recovery strengthens.
The supply of new and existing homes continues to trail the growth in population and households.  We believe the new home market continues to have significant pent-up demand, though stronger in some markets than in others. We are producing strong results even with industry-wide home production levels still well below historic norms. We believe that, as the national economy continues to improve and as the millennial generation comes of age, pent-up demand for homes will continue to be released.  We expect that this increase in demand will drive production to address the existing deficit in housing supply compared to projected household growth.

Revenues and Cost of Revenues
The increase in revenues for the six months ended April 30, 2017, as compared to the six months ended April 30, 2016, was attributable to a 19% increase in the number of homes delivered primarily due to a higher backlog at October 31, 2016, as compared to October 31, 2015, offset, in part, by a 6% decrease in the average price of the homes delivered. The decrease in the average delivered price was due to a decrease in the number of homes delivered in the metro New York City market, where average prices are significantly higher than the average prices of our traditional homebuilding product; an increase in deliveries of lower priced attached and age qualified products in the fiscal 2017 period, as compared to the fiscal 2016 period; and the impact of lower priced products delivered from communities acquired in our purchase of Coleman in November 2016. The increase in cost of revenues, as a percentage of revenues, in the six months ended April 30, 2017 was due primarily to fewer closings in our City Living buildings where margins were higher; the impact of purchase accounting for the homes sold from communities acquired in our purchase of Coleman; higher material and labor costs; a higher number of closings from lower margin communities; and an increase in inventory impairment and write-offs. This increase was partially offset by lower interest expense in the fiscal 2017 period, as compared to the fiscal 2016 period. In the fiscal 2017 and fiscal 2016 periods, interest expense as a percentage of revenues was 3.0% and 3.3%, respectively, and we recognized inventory impairments and write-offs of $8.9 million and $7.6 million, respectively.
The increase in revenues for the three months ended April 30, 2017, as compared to the three months ended April 30, 2016, was primarily attributable to a 26% increase in the number of homes delivered primarily due to a higher backlog at October 31, 2016, as compared to October 31, 2015, offset, in part, by a 3% decrease in the average price of the homes delivered. The decrease in the average price was due to an increase in deliveries of lower priced attached and age qualified products in the fiscal 2017 period, as compared to the fiscal 2016 period, and the impact of lower priced product delivered from communities acquired in our purchase of Coleman. These decreases were offset, in part, by an increase in the number of homes delivered in the metro New York City and California markets, where average prices were higher and an increase in the average delivered price of our City Living product due to a change in product mix. The increase in cost of revenues, as a percentage of revenues, in the three months ended April 30, 2017 was due primarily to a shift in closings to buildings with lower gross margins in our City Living product, the impact of purchase accounting for the homes sold from communities acquired in our purchase of Coleman, higher material and labor costs, and a higher number of closings from lower margin communities. These increases were partially offset by increased closings in California at higher margins, lower interest expense, and a decrease in inventory impairment and write-offs in the fiscal 2017 period, as compared to the fiscal 2016 period. In the fiscal 2017 and fiscal 2016 periods, interest expense as a percentage of revenues was 3.0% and 3.2%, respectively, and we recognized inventory impairments and write-offs of $4.3 million and $6.4 million, respectively.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses (“SG&A”)
SG&A spending increased by $34.8 million in the six-month period ended April 30, 2017, as compared to the six-month period ended April 30, 2016. As a percentage of revenues, SG&A increased to 12.5% in the fiscal 2017 period, from 12.2% in the fiscal 2016 period. The increase in SG&A, as a percentage of revenues, in the fiscal 2017 period was due to SG&A spending increasing by 14% while revenues increased 12% from the fiscal 2016 period. The dollar increase in SG&A was due primarily to increased compensation costs due to a higher number of employees; increased sales and marketing costs; and increased spending on our upgrading of computer software. The higher sales and marketing costs were the result of the increased spending on advertising, model operating costs, and commissions, and an increase in the number of homes delivered. The increased number of employees was due primarily to the increase in the number of operating communities that we had in the fiscal 2017 period, as compared to the fiscal 2016 period.
SG&A spending increased by $19.5 million in the three-month period ended April 30, 2017, as compared to the three-month period ended April 30, 2016. As a percentage of revenues, SG&A decreased to 10.8% in the fiscal 2017 period, from 11.5% in the fiscal 2016 period. The decrease in SG&A, as a percentage of revenues, in the fiscal 2017 period was due to revenues increasing 22% and SG&A spending increasing by 15% from the fiscal 2016 period. The dollar increase in SG&A was due primarily to increased compensation costs due to a higher number of employees; increased sales and marketing costs; and increased spending on our upgrading of computer software. The higher sales and marketing costs were the result of the increased number of home closed and increased selling communities. The increased number of employees was due primarily to the increase in the number of operating communities that we had in the fiscal 2017 period, as compared to the fiscal 2016 period.
Income from Unconsolidated Entities
We recognize our proportionate share of the earnings and losses from the various unconsolidated entities in which we have an investment. Some of our unconsolidated entities are land development projects or high-rise/mid-rise condominium construction projects, which do not generate revenues and earnings for a number of years during the development of the property. Once development is complete, these unconsolidated entities will generally, over a relatively short period of time, generate revenues

34



and earnings until all of the assets of the entity are sold. Because there is not a steady flow of revenues and earnings from these entities, the earnings recognized from these entities may vary significantly from quarter to quarter and year to year.
The increase in income from unconsolidated entities for the six-month period ended April 30, 2017, as compared to the six-month period ended April 30, 2016, was due mainly to higher income from two of our Home Building Joint Ventures located in New York City and $26.7 million of gains recognized in the fiscal 2017 period related to the sale of 50% of our ownership interests in two of our Rental Property Joint Ventures located in Jersey City, New Jersey and the suburbs of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.
The increase in income from unconsolidated entities for the three-month period ended April 30, 2017, as compared to the three-month period ended April 30, 2016, was due mainly to higher income from two of our Home Building Joint Ventures located in New York City and a $20.5 million gain recognized related to the sale of 50% of our ownership interests in one of our Rental Property Joint Ventures located in Jersey City, New Jersey.

In the six months ended April 30, 2016, our security monitoring business recognized a gain of $1.6 million related to a bulk sale of security monitoring accounts in fiscal 2015, which is included in income from ancillary businesses above. The increase in management fee income from unconsolidated entities in the fiscal 2017 periods, as compared to the fiscal 2016 periods, was mainly due to management fees earned on the closing of homes at two of our Home Building Joint Ventures located in New York City, which commenced closing homes in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2016. The decrease in Gibraltar earnings in the fiscal 2017 periods, as compared to the fiscal 2016 periods, was principally due to the continued liquidation of its distressed loans and foreclosed real estate owned assets. Gibraltar’s current business strategy is, through joint ventures, to finance builders’ and developers’ acquisition and development of land and home sites and pursue other complementary investment strategies.
Income Before Income Taxes
For the six-month period ended April 30, 2017, we reported income before income taxes of $309.0 million, as compared to $257.2 million in the six-month period ended April 30, 2016. For the three-month period ended April 30, 2017, we reported income before income taxes of $199.2 million, as compared to $140.4 million in the three-month period ended April 30, 2016.
Income Tax Provision
We recognized $113.9 million and $74.6 million of income tax provision in the six-month and three-month periods ended April 30, 2017, respectively. Based upon the federal statutory rate of 35%, our federal tax provision would have been $108.1 million and $69.7 million in the six-month and three-month periods ended April 30, 2017, respectively. The difference between the tax provision recognized and the tax provision based on the federal statutory rate was mainly due to the provision for state income taxes and interest accrued on anticipated tax assessments, partially offset by tax benefits related to the utilization of domestic production activities deductions and other permanent differences.
In the six-month and three-month periods ended April 30, 2016, we recognized $95.0 million and $51.3 million of income tax provision, respectively. Based upon the federal statutory rate of 35%, our federal tax provision would have been $90.0 million and $49.1 million in the six-month and three-month periods ended April 30, 2016, respectively. The differences between the tax provision recognized and the tax provision based on the federal statutory rate was due primarily to the provision for state income taxes and interest accrued on anticipated tax assessments, offset by tax benefits related to the utilization of domestic production activities deductions and other permanent differences.

35



Contracts
The aggregate value of net contracts signed increased $530.0 million, or 19%, in the six-month period ended April 30, 2017, as compared to the prior year period. In the six-month periods ended April 30, 2017 and 2016, the value of net contracts signed was $3.26 billion (4,033 homes) and $2.73 billion (3,243 homes), respectively.
The aggregate value of net contracts signed increased $374.1 million, or 23%, in the three-month period ended April 30, 2017, as compared to the prior year period. In the three-month periods ended April 30, 2017 and 2016, the value of net contracts signed was $2.02 billion (2,511 homes) and $1.65 billion (1,993 homes), respectively.
The increases in the aggregate value of net contracts signed in the fiscal 2017 periods, as compared to the fiscal 2016 periods, were the result of increases of 24% and 26% in the number of net contracts signed, in the six-month and three-month periods, respectively, offset, in part, by decreases of 4% and 3% in the average value of each contract signed, in the six-month and three-month periods, respectively. The increases in the number of net contracts signed was the result of increased demand and to an increase in the number of selling communities in the fiscal 2017 periods, as compared to the fiscal 2016 periods. The declines in average price in the fiscal 2017 periods, as compared to the fiscal 2016 periods, was primarily due to the inclusion of the sale of 207 homes and 147 homes from Coleman in the six and three months ended April 30, 2017, respectively, at average selling prices of $329,000 and $324,600, respectively; a decrease in the number of contracts signed in our City Living division; and an increase in the number of contracts signed in our multi-family and age-qualified product, primarily in the North, Mid-Atlantic, and West regions, which generally are a lower priced product.
Backlog
The increase in the value of our backlog at April 30, 2017, as compared to the backlog at April 30, 2016, was primarily attributable to the 14% higher value of backlog at October 31, 2016, as compared to the backlog at October 31, 2015 and a 19% increase in the value of net contracts signed in the six-month period ended April 30, 2017, as compared to the value of net contracts signed in the six-month period ended April 30, 2016, offset, in part, by a 12% increase in the value of deliveries in the six-month period ended April 30, 2017.
The value of our backlog at April 30, 2017 increased 19% to $5.00 billion (6,018 homes), as compared to our backlog at April 30, 2016 of $4.19 billion (4,940 homes). Our backlog at October 31, 2016 and 2015 was $3.98 billion (4,685 homes) and $3.50 billion (4,064 homes), respectively.
For more information regarding results of operations by operating segment, see “Segments” in this MD&A.
CAPITAL RESOURCES AND LIQUIDITY
Funding for our business has been, and continues to be, provided principally by cash flow from operating activities before inventory additions, unsecured bank borrowings, and the public capital markets. At April 30, 2017, we had $691.3 million of cash and cash equivalents. At October 31, 2016, we had $633.7 million of cash and cash equivalents. Cash provided by operating activities during the six-month period ended April 30, 2017 was $260.4 million. Cash provided by operating activities during the fiscal 2017 period was primarily related to net income before stock-based compensation, inventory impairments, and depreciation and amortization; a decrease in mortgage loans held for sale; a decrease in restricted cash and investments; a decrease in receivables, prepaid expenses, and other assets; and increases in customer deposits and income taxes payable; offset, in part, by an increase in inventory and a decrease in accounts payable and accrued expenses.
In the six-month period ended April 30, 2017, cash used in investing activities was $108.5 million, which was primarily related to $113.5 million used to fund our investments in unconsolidated entities, $85.2 million used to acquire Coleman, and $11.7 million for the purchase of property and equipment. This was offset, in part, by $102.5 million of cash received as returns on our investments in unconsolidated entities, foreclosed real estate, and distressed loans.
We used $94.4 million of cash from financing activities in the six-month period ended April 30, 2017 primarily for the repayment of $404.4 million of loans payable, net of borrowings, the repurchase of $15.4 million of our common stock, and the payment of a dividend on our common stock of $0.08 per share, $13.1 million in the aggregate, offset, in part, by the proceeds from the issuance of $300 million of 4.875% Senior Notes due 2027 and the proceeds of $40.6 million from our stock-based benefit plans.
At April 30, 2016, we had $423.2 million of cash and cash equivalents. At October 31, 2015, we had $919.0 million of cash and cash equivalents and $10.0 million of marketable securities. Cash used in operating activities during the six-month period ended April 30, 2016 was $15.9 million. Cash used in operating activities during the fiscal 2016 period was primarily related to the purchase of inventory and increases in restricted cash and investments, offset, in part, by net income before stock-based compensation, inventory impairments, and depreciation and amortization; an increase in customer deposits; an increase in

accounts payable and accrued expenses; an increase in receivables, prepaid expenses, and other assets; and an increase in income taxes payable.
In the six-month period ended April 30, 2016, cash provided by investing activities was $42.3 million. The cash provided by investing activities was primarily related to $61.9 million of cash received as returns on our investments in unconsolidated entities, foreclosed real estate, and distressed loans and $10.0 million of proceeds from the sale of marketable securities. This was offset, in part, by $22.2 million used to fund our investments in unconsolidated entities, foreclosed real estate, and distressed loans, and $7.3 million for the purchase of property and equipment.
We used $522.3 million of cash from financing activities in the six-month period ended April 30, 2016 primarily for the repayment of $297.9 million of loans payable, net of new borrowings and the repurchase of $230.3 million of our common stock, offset, in part, by proceeds of $5.0 million from our stock-based benefit plans. Subsequent to April 30, 2016, we repurchased approximately 1.8 million additional shares of our common stock for approximately $47.3 million.
In general, our cash flow from operating activities assumes that, as each home is delivered, we will purchase a home site to replace it. Because we own a supply of several years of home sites, we do not need to buy home sites immediately to replace those that we deliver. In addition, we generally do not begin construction of our detached homes until we have a signed contract with the home buyer, although in the past several years, due to the increase in the number of attached-home communities from which we were operating (all of the units of which are generally not sold before the commencement of construction), the number of speculative homes in our inventory increased significantly. Should our business remain at its current level or decline, we believe that our inventory levels would decrease as we complete and deliver the homes under construction but do not commence construction of as many new homes, as we complete the improvements on the land we already own, and as we sell and deliver the speculative homes that are currently in inventory, resulting in additional cash flow from operations. In addition, we might delay, decrease, or curtail our acquisition of additional land, as we did during the period from April 2006 through January 2010, which would further reduce our inventory levels and cash needs. At April 30, 2017, we owned or controlled through options approximately 46,600 home sites, of which we owned approximately 32,600. Of our owned home sites at April 30, 2017, significant improvements were completed on approximately 18,000 of them.
At April 30, 2017, the aggregate purchase price of land parcels under option and purchase agreements was approximately $1.51 billion (including $33.0 million of land to be acquired from joint ventures in which we have invested). Of the $1.51 billion of land purchase commitments, we paid or deposited $77.7 million, and, if we acquire all of these land parcels, we will be required to pay an additional $1.43 billion. The purchases of these land parcels are scheduled to occur over the next several years. In addition, we expect to purchase approximately 3,600 additional home sites over a number of years from several joint ventures in which we have interests. We have additional land parcels under option that have been excluded from the aforementioned aggregate purchase amounts since we do not believe that we will complete the purchase of these land parcels and no additional funds will be required from us to terminate these contracts.
On August 1, 2013, we entered into a $1.035 billion revolving credit facility (the “Credit Facility”) that was scheduled to terminate on August 1, 2018. On May 19, 2016, we entered into a new $1.215 billion (subsequently increased to $1.295 billion), unsecured, five-year revolving credit facility (the “New Credit Facility”) and terminated the Credit Facility. Under the terms of the New Credit Facility, our maximum leverage ratio (as defined in the credit agreement) may not exceed 1.75 to 1.00, and we are required to maintain a minimum tangible net worth (as defined in the credit agreement) of no less than approximately $2.71 billion. Under the terms of the New Credit Facility, at April 30, 2017, our leverage ratio was approximately 0.70 to 1.00, and our tangible net worth was approximately $4.41 billion. Based upon the limitations related to our repurchase of common stock in the New Credit Facility, our ability to repurchase our common stock was limited to approximately $2.40 billion as of April 30, 2017. At April 30, 2017, we had no outstanding borrowings under our New Credit Facility and had outstanding letters of credit thereunder of approximately $120.0 million.
We believe that we will have adequate resources and sufficient access to the capital markets and external financing sources to continue to fund our current operations and meet our contractual obligations. Our $400 million principal amount of 8.91% Senior Notes will mature in October 2017. In addition, we may be required to repay our $287.5 million principal amount of 0.5% Exchangeable Senior Notes (“Exchangeable Senior Notes”) in December 2017 as the holders of these notes have the right to require us to repurchase them on December 15, 2017. We have the right to redeem the Exchangeable Senior Notes on or after September 15, 2017, for cash equal to 100% of the principal amount, plus accrued but unpaid interest. Due to the uncertainties in the economy and for home builders in general, we cannot be certain that we will be able to replace existing financing or find sources of additional financing in the future.

OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS
We have investments in Land Development Joint Ventures; Home Building Joint Ventures; Rental Property Joint Ventures; and Gibraltar Joint Ventures.
Our investments in these entities are accounted for using the equity method of accounting. We are a party to several joint ventures with unrelated parties to develop and sell land that is owned by the joint ventures. We recognize our proportionate share of the earnings from the sale of home sites to other builders, including our joint venture partners. We do not recognize earnings from the home sites we purchase from these ventures at the time of our purchase; instead, our cost basis in the home sites is reduced by our share of the earnings realized by the joint venture from sales of those home sites to us.
At April 30, 2017, we had investments in these entities of $540.2 million and were committed to invest or advance up to an additional $56.2 million to these entities if they require additional funding. At April 30, 2017, we had agreed to terms for the acquisition of 78 home sites from two Land Development Joint Ventures for an estimated aggregate purchase price of $33.0 million. In addition, we expect to purchase approximately 3,600 additional home sites over a number of years from several joint ventures in which we have interests; the purchase price of these home sites will be determined at a future date.
The unconsolidated entities in which we have investments generally finance their activities with a combination of partner equity and debt financing. In some instances, we and our partners have guaranteed debt of certain unconsolidated entities. These guarantees may include any or all of the following: (i) project completion guarantees, including any cost overruns; (ii) repayment guarantees, generally covering a percentage of the outstanding loan; (iii) carry cost guarantees, which cover costs such as interest, real estate taxes, and insurance; (iv) an environmental indemnity provided to the lender that holds the lender harmless from and against losses arising from the discharge of hazardous materials from the property and non-compliance with applicable environmental laws; 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, we generally have a reimbursement agreement with our partner that provides that neither party is responsible for more than its proportionate share or agreed-upon share of the guarantee; however, if the joint venture partner does not have adequate financial resources to meet its obligations under the reimbursement agreement, we may be liable for more than our proportionate share.
We believe that, as of April 30, 2017, in the event we become legally obligated to perform under a guarantee of the obligation of an unconsolidated entity due to a triggering event, the collateral in such entity should be sufficient to repay all or a significant portion of the obligation. If it is not, we and our partners would need to contribute additional capital to the venture. At April 30, 2017, we have guaranteed the debt of certain unconsolidated entities aggregating $1.32 billion, of which we estimate $194.0 million to be our maximum exposure related to repayment and carry cost guarantees. At January 31, 2017, the unconsolidated entities had borrowed an aggregate of $887.6 million, of which we estimate $157.8 million to be our maximum exposure related to repayment and carry cost guarantees. The terms of these guarantees generally range from 1 month to 43 months. These maximum exposure estimates do not take into account any recoveries from the underlying collateral or any reimbursement from our partners.
In addition, we have guaranteed approximately $2.2 million of ground lease payments and insurance deductibles for three joint ventures.
For more information regarding these joint ventures, see Note 3, “Investments in Unconsolidated Entities,” in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in this Form 10-Q.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
As disclosed in our 2016 Form 10-K, our most critical accounting policies relate to inventory, income taxes–valuation allowances, revenue and cost recognition, and warranty and self-insurance. Since October 31, 2016, there have been no material changes to those critical accounting policies.
SEGMENTS
We operate in two segments: Traditional Home Building and City Living. We conduct our Traditional Home Building operations in five geographic areas around the United States: (1) the North, consisting of Connecticut, Illinois, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, New Jersey, and New York; (2) the Mid-Atlantic, consisting of Delaware, Maryland, Pennsylvania, and Virginia; (3) the South, consisting of Florida, North Carolina, and Texas; (4) the West, consisting of Arizona, Colorado, Idaho, Nevada, and Washington, and (5) California.

The increases in the number of homes delivered in the fiscal 2017 periods, as compared to the fiscal 2016 periods, were mainly due to increases in the number of homes closed in Illinois, Massachusetts, Michigan, and New York, offset, in part, by a decrease in the number of homes settled in New Jersey. The increases in the number of homes closed in Illinois, Massachusetts, Michigan, and New York were primarily due to a higher percentage of home closings from beginning backlog (“backlog conversion”) in the fiscal 2017 periods, as compared to the fiscal 2016 periods and the increase in the number of homes in backlog as of October 31, 2016, as compared to the number of homes in backlog at October 31, 2015. The decrease in the number of homes closed in New Jersey was mainly due to lower backlog conversion. The decrease in the average price of homes delivered in the three-month period ended April 30, 2017, as compared to the three-month period ended April 30, 2016, was primarily due to a shift in the number of homes delivered to less expensive areas and/or products.
The increases in the number of net contracts signed in the fiscal 2017 periods, as compared to the fiscal 2016 periods, were principally attributable to an increase in demand in Connecticut, Michigan and New York, partially offset by a decrease in the number of selling communities in New Jersey. The decreases in the average value of each contract signed in the fiscal 2017 periods, as compared to the fiscal 2016 periods, were mainly due to a shift in the number of contracts signed to less expensive areas and/or products, particularly in Michigan and Massachusetts, where we saw a significant increase in the number of contracts signed in multifamily and active-adult, age-qualified communities.

The increases in the number of homes delivered in the fiscal 2017 periods, as compared to the fiscal 2016 periods, were mainly due to an increase in the number of homes closed in Pennsylvania, Maryland, and Virginia, which was attributable to an increase in the number of homes in backlog as of October 31, 2016, as compared to the number of homes in backlog at
October 31, 2015.
The increases in the number of net contracts signed in the fiscal 2017 periods, as compared to the fiscal 2016 periods, were principally due to increases in demand, primarily in Virginia and Maryland, and an increase in the number of selling communities in Pennsylvania.
The 12% decrease in income before income taxes in the six months ended April 30, 2017, as compared to the six months ended April 30, 2016, was mainly due to higher inventory impairment charges and a $2.0 million impairment charge we recognized on one of our Land Development Joint Ventures. These decreases were, offset, in part, by higher earnings from increased revenues. In the six months ended April 30, 2017, inventory impairment charges were $5.0 million, as compared to $10,000 in the six months ended April 30, 2016. In the first quarter of fiscal 2017, during our review of operating communities for impairment, primarily due to a lack of improvement and/or a decrease in customer demand as a result of weaker than expected market conditions, we determined that the pricing assumptions used in prior impairment reviews for one operating community located in Maryland needed to be reduced. As a result of this reduction in expected sales prices, we determined that this community was impaired. Accordingly, the carrying value of this community was written down to its estimated fair value resulting in a charge to income before taxes of $3.9 million in the six months ended April 30, 2017. In the second quarter of fiscal 2017, during our evaluation of joint venture investments, we determined that the development costs assumptions used in prior impairment reviews for one Land Development Joint Venture located in Maryland needed to be increased. As a result of these cost increases, we determined that our investment in this joint venture was impaired and we concluded that the impairment was other than temporary. Accordingly, the carrying value of our investment in this joint venture was written down to its estimated fair value resulting in a charge to income before taxes of $2.0 million in the six months and three months ended April 30, 2017.
The 5% increase in income before income taxes in the three months ended April 30, 2017, as compared to the three months ended April 30, 2016, was primarily due to higher earnings from increased revenues, partially offset by $2.0 million impairment charge we recognized on one of our Land Development Joint Ventures as discussed above and higher costs of revenues, as a percentage of revenues. The increase in cost of revenues, as a percentage of revenues, was mainly due to a shift in the number of homes delivered to lower-margin products and/or locations.

The increases in the number of homes delivered in the fiscal 2017 periods, as compared to the fiscal 2016 periods, were mainly due to an increase in the number of homes closed in North Carolina which was attributable to an increase in the number of homes in backlog as of October 31, 2016, as compared to the number of homes in backlog at October 31, 2015. The decreases in the average price of homes delivered in the fiscal 2017 periods, as compared to the fiscal 2016 periods, were primarily due to a shift in the number of homes delivered to less expensive areas and/or products.
The increase in the number of net contracts signed in the fiscal 2017 periods, as compared to the fiscal 2016 periods, was mainly due to increased demand in Texas and an increase in the number of selling communities.
The decreases in income before income taxes in the fiscal 2017 periods, as compared to the fiscal 2016 periods, were principally due to higher cost of revenues, as a percentage of revenues, higher SG&A costs, lower income earned from our investments in unconsolidated entities, and decreased earnings from land sales in Texas. The increase in cost of revenues, as a percentage of revenues, was primarily due to a shift in the number of homes delivered to lower-margin products and/or locations. The higher SG&A costs were principally due to the increase in the number of selling communities. The decrease in income earned from our investments in unconsolidated entities primarily related to a decrease in the number of lots sold at one of our Land Development Joint Ventures in Texas and a $1.4 million charge for amenity construction repairs at one of our Home Building Joint Ventures located in South Carolina.

The increases in the number of homes delivered in the fiscal 2017 periods, as compared to the fiscal 2016 periods, were mainly due to an increase in the number of homes in backlog at October 31, 2016, as compared to the number of homes in backlog at

43



October 31, 2015, and the delivery of 139 homes and 65 homes in the six-month and three-month periods ended April 30, 2017, respectively, from our Coleman acquisition. The increase in the average delivered price of homes delivered in the three-month period end April 30, 2017, as compared to the three-month period ended April 30, 2016, was primarily due to a shift in the number of homes delivered to more expensive areas and/or products. These increases were partially offset by deliveries of homes from communities acquired in our purchase of Coleman, where the average price of homes delivered in the three months ended April 30, 2017 was $312,000. Excluding the Coleman closings, the average price of homes delivered in the three month period ended April 30, 2017 increased 15%, as compared to the comparable fiscal 2016 period.
The increases in the number of net contracts signed in the fiscal 2017 periods, as compared to the fiscal 2016 periods, were principally due to the 207 contracts and 147 contracts we signed during the six-month and three-month periods ended April 30, 2017, respectively, at Coleman communities and increases in demand and in the number of selling communities in Nevada. The Coleman net contracts signed also reduced our average contracted price for the fiscal 2017 periods, as compared to the fiscal 2016 period. Excluding Coleman contracts, the average value of each contract signed in the six-month period ended April 30, 2017 was consistent with the average value of contracts signed in the six-months ended April 30, 2016; and the average value of each contract signed in the three-month period ended April 30, 2017 declined by 4%, compared to the three-months ended April 30, 2016, primarily due to an increase in the number of contracts signed in multifamily and active-adult, age-qualified communities.
The increases in income before income taxes in the fiscal 2017 periods, as compared to the fiscal 2016 periods, were due mainly to higher earnings from the increased revenues and SG&A spending not increasing as fast as revenues. Partially offsetting the six month increase was a $2.9 million recovery of previously incurred charges related to a Land Development Joint Venture which benefited the six month period ended April 30, 2016.

The increases in the number of homes delivered in the fiscal 2017 periods, as compared to the fiscal 2016 periods, were mainly due to higher backlog conversion, primarily in the three-month period ended April 30, 2017, as compared to the three-month period ended April 30, 2016.
The 41% increases in the number of net contracts signed in the fiscal 2017 periods, as compared to the fiscal 2016 periods, were due mainly to an increase in demand and an increase in the number of selling communities in our southern California market.
The increases in income before income taxes in the fiscal 2017 periods, as compared to the fiscal 2016 periods, were due mainly to higher earnings from increased revenues and lower cost of revenues, as a percent of revenues, offset, in part, by higher SG&A costs, as a percentage of revenues. The increase in the three months ended April 30, 2017, as compared to the three months ended April 30, 2016, was also partially offset by a decrease in earnings from unconsolidated entities. The lower cost of revenues, as a percentage of revenues, in the fiscal 2017 periods, as compared to the fiscal 2016 periods, was primarily due to a shift in the number of homes delivered to higher-margin products and/or locations and price increases. The increase in SG&A costs, as a percent of revenues, was principally due to the increase in the number of selling communities. The decrease in earnings for unconsolidated entities, in the three months ended April 30, 2017, as compared to the three months ended

44



April 30, 2016, was attributable to a decrease in the number of lots sold by Land Development Joint Venture due to the timing of lot availably.

The decrease in the number of homes delivered in the six-month period ended April 30, 2017, as compared to the six-month period ended April 30, 2016, was principally due to a decrease in closings at 400 Park Avenue South where there were fewer available units and at 410 at Society Hill which sold out in fiscal 2016. These decreases were partially offset by the commencement of closing at 55 West 17th Street, located in New York City, and at Hampden Row, located in Bethesda, Maryland, in the six-month period ended April 30, 2017. The increase in the number of homes delivered in the three-month period ended April 30, 2017, as compared to the three-month period ended April 30, 2016, was mainly due to the previously mentioned closings at 55 West 17th Street and Hampden Row.
The 19% increase in the average price of homes delivered in the three-month period ended April 30, 2017, as compared to the three-month period ended April 30, 2016, was primarily due to the closings of more expensive homes at 1110 Park Avenue and 400 Park Avenue South in the fiscal 2017 period, as compared to fiscal 2016, partially offset by closings at Hampden Row where the average home price is lower.
The decreases in the number of net contracts signed in the fiscal 2017 periods, as compared to the fiscal 2016 periods, were mainly due to decline in availability of homes available for sale in Philadelphia and reduced demand in the Bethesda, Maryland market in the fiscal 2017 periods. The six-month period ended April 30, 2016 also benefited from strong sales in the first quarter of fiscal 2016 at one of our buildings located in Hoboken, New Jersey, which opened in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2015, which initially benefited from pent up demand. The increases in the average sales price of net contracts signed were principally due to a shift to more expensive areas and/or products.
The 42% increase in income before income taxes in the six months ended April 30, 2017, as compared to the six months ended April 30, 2016, was mainly due to a $60.0 million increase in earnings from our investments in unconsolidated entities and $4.5 million recognized of a previously deferred gain, offset, in part, by lower earnings from decreased revenues and higher cost of revenues, as a percent of revenues. The 159% increase in income before income taxes in the three months ended April 30, 2017, as compared to the three months ended April 30, 2016, was primarily attributable to a $25.3 million increase in earnings from our investments in unconsolidated entities, higher earnings from increased revenues, and $1.3 million recognized of a previously deferred gain, partially offset by higher cost of revenues, as a percent of revenues. The increases in cost of revenues, as a percent of revenues in the fiscal 2017 periods, as compared to the 2016 periods, were principally due to a shift in the number of homes delivered to lower-margin products and/or locations. The deferred gains relate to the sale of a property in fiscal 2015 to a Home Building Joint Venture in which we have a 25% interest. Due to our continued involvement in the joint venture through our ownership interest and guarantees provided on the joint venture’s debt, we deferred the $9.3 million gain realized on the sale. We are recognizing the gain as units are sold by the joint venture to the ultimate home buyers.

In the six months and three months ended April 30, 2017, due to the commencement of deliveries from two City Living Home Building Joint Ventures, we recognized $59.6 million and $25.1 million in earnings from our investments in unconsolidated entities, respectively. In the six months and three months ended April 30, 2016, we recognized losses from our investments in these unconsolidated entities of $0.4 million and $0.2 million, respectively. The tables below provide information related to deliveries and revenues and net contracts signed by three City Living Home Building Joint Ventures, for the periods indicated, and the related backlog for the dates indicated ($ amounts in millions):

The 18% decrease in the loss before income taxes in six months ended April 30, 2017, as compared to the six months ended April 30, 2016, was principally attributable to gains of $26.7 million related to the sales of 50% of our ownership interests in two of our Rental Property Joint Ventures located in Jersey City, New Jersey and the suburbs of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, offset, in part, by higher SG&A costs, lower earnings from our wholly owned subsidiary, Gibraltar Capital and Asset Management, LLC, and a gain of $1.6 million recognized in the fiscal 2016 period, from a bulk sale of security monitoring accounts by our home security monitoring business in fiscal 2015. The increase in SG&A costs was due primarily to increased compensation costs due to our increased number of employees.
The 39% decrease in the loss before income taxes in the three months ended April 30, 2017, as compared to the three months ended April 30, 2016, was principally attributable to a gain of $20.5 million related to the sale of 50% of our ownership interests in one of our Rental Property Joint Ventures located in Jersey City, New Jersey, offset, in part, by higher SG&A costs, and lower earnings from Gibraltar. The increase in SG&A costs was due primarily to increased compensation costs due to our increased number of employees.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
We are exposed to market risk primarily due to fluctuations in interest rates. We utilize both fixed-rate and variable-rate debt. For fixed-rate debt, changes in interest rates generally affect the fair market value of the debt instrument, but not our earnings or cash flow. Conversely, for variable-rate debt, changes in interest rates generally do not impact the fair value of the debt instrument, but do affect our earnings and cash flow. We do not have the obligation to prepay fixed-rate debt before maturity, and, as a result, interest rate risk and changes in fair value should not have a significant impact on our fixed-rate debt until we are required or elect to refinance it.
The table below sets forth, at April 30, 2017, our debt obligations by scheduled maturity, weighted-average interest rates, and estimated fair value (amounts in thousands):

(a)
Based upon the amount of variable-rate debt outstanding at April 30, 2017, and holding the variable-rate debt balance constant, each 1% increase in interest rates would increase the interest incurred by us by approximately $5.7 million per year.
(b)
The fixed-rate debt amount for fiscal 2018 includes $287.5 million principal amount of 0.5% Exchangeable Senior Notes (the “0.5% Exchangeable Senior Notes”). The 0.5% Exchangeable Senior Notes are exchangeable into shares of our common stock at an exchange rate, as adjusted, of 20.4206 shares per $1,000 principal amount of notes, corresponding to an initial exchange price, as adjusted, of approximately $48.97 per share of common stock. Holders of the 0.5% Exchangeable Senior Notes will have the right to require Toll Brothers Finance Corp. to repurchase their notes for cash equal to 100% of their principal amount, plus accrued but unpaid interest, on each of December 15, 2017, September 15, 2022, and September 15, 2027. We will have the right to redeem the 0.5% Exchangeable Senior Notes on or after September 15, 2017, for cash equal to 100% of their principal amount, plus accrued but unpaid interest.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Any controls and procedures, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected; however, our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives.
Our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, with the assistance of management, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, (the “Exchange Act”), as of the end of the period covered by this report (the “Evaluation Date”). Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of the Evaluation Date, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in our reports under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
There has not been any change in our internal control over financial reporting (as that term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during our quarter ended April 30, 2017, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
We are involved in various claims and litigation arising principally in the ordinary course of business. We believe that adequate provision for resolution of all current claims and pending litigation has been made for probable losses and that the disposition of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and liquidity or on our financial condition.
In April 2017, the SEC informed the Company that it was conducting an investigation and requested that we voluntarily produce documents and information relating to our estimated repair costs for stucco and other water intrusion claims in fiscal 2016. As previously described in our 2016 Form 10-K, in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2016, our estimated liability for these water intrusion claims increased significantly. The Company will produce documents and information in response to this request. Management cannot at this time predict the eventual scope or outcome of this matter.
ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
There have been no material changes in our risk factors as previously disclosed in Part I, Item 1A., “Risk Factors,” in our 2016 Form 10-K.
ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS

Our stock incentive plans permit us to withhold from the total number of shares that otherwise would be issued to a performance based restricted stock unit recipient or a restricted stock unit recipient upon distribution that number of shares having a fair value at the time of distribution equal to the applicable income tax withholdings due and remit the remaining shares to the recipient. During the three months ended April 30, 2017, we withheld 152 of the shares subject to performance based restricted stock units and restricted stock units to cover approximately $5,500 of income tax withholdings and we issued the remaining 328 shares to the recipients. The shares withheld are not included in the total number of shares purchased in the table above.
Our stock incentive plans also permit participants to exercise non-qualified stock options using a “net exercise” method. In a net exercise, we generally withhold from the total number of shares that otherwise would be issued to the participant upon exercise of the stock option that number of shares having a fair market value at the time of exercise equal to the option exercise price and applicable income tax withholdings, and remit the remaining shares to the participant. During the three-month period ended April 30, 2017, the net exercise method was not employed to exercise options.
(b)
On May 23, 2016, our Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of 20 million shares of our common stock in open market transactions or otherwise for general corporate purposes, including to obtain shares for the Company’s equity award and other employee benefit plans. The Board of Directors did not fix any expiration date for this repurchase program.
Except as set forth above, we have not repurchased any of our equity securities during the three-month period ended April 30, 2017.
On February 21, 2017, our Board of Directors approved the initiation of quarterly cash dividends to shareholders. The first quarterly dividend of $0.08 per share was paid on April 28, 2017 to shareholders of record on the close of business on April 14, 2017.
