TOLL BROTHERS REPORTS 1ST QTR 2007 EARNINGS RESULTS

Horsham, PA, February 22, 2007 — Toll Brothers, Inc. (NYSE:TOL) (www.tollbrothers.com), the nation’s leading builder of luxury homes, today reported results for net income, revenues, backlog and contracts for its first quarter ended January 31, 2007.

FY 2007’s first-quarter net income was $54.3 million, or $0.33 per share diluted, compared to FY 2006’s first-quarter record of $163.9 million, or $0.98 per share diluted. In FY 2007, first-quarter net income was reduced by pre-tax write-downs of $96.9 million ($59.0 million, or $0.36 per share diluted, after tax), plus a pre-tax $9.0 million ($0.03 per share diluted, after tax) goodwill impairment charge related to the Company’s 1999 acquisition of the Silverman Companies in metro Detroit. In FY 2006, first-quarter pre-tax write-downs totaled $1.1 million, or less than $0.01 per share diluted, after tax. FY 2007 first-quarter earnings per share, including write-downs, declined 66% versus FY 2006’s first quarter. Excluding write-downs and the impairment charge, FY 2007’s first-quarter earnings per share were $0.72 diluted, down 27% versus the same period in FY 2006.

FY 2007’s first-quarter total revenues were $1.09 billion, a decline of 19% compared to the first-quarter record of $1.34 billion in revenues in FY 2006. FY 2007’s first-quarter-end backlog was $4.15 billion, a decline of 30% compared to the first-quarter record of $5.95 billion in FY 2006.

FY 2007’s first-quarter net signed contracts were $748.7 million, a decline of 34% compared to FY 2006’s first-quarter total of $1.14 billion. The Company signed 1,463 contracts (before cancellations) in FY 2007’s first quarter, a 14% decline from the 1,695 signed in FY 2006’s first quarter. Net of cancellations, first-quarter contracts totaled 1,027 units, down 33% from 1,544 units in the first quarter of FY 2006. First-quarter FY 2007 cancellations totaled 436 units versus 585 units in fourth-quarter FY 2006; FY 2007’s first-quarter cancellation rate of 29.8% was lower than the 36.9% cancellation rate in fourth-quarter 2006. However, it was still well above the Company’s historical average of about 7%.

In response to current market conditions, the Company continues to reevaluate and, in some cases, renegotiate its optioned land positions. As a result of its ongoing review, the Company ended FY 2007’s first quarter with approximately 67,500 lots under control compared to approximately 73,800 and 83,200 at FYE 2006 and FYE 2005, respectively. The Company’s FY 2007 first-quarter-end total was down 26% from its high of approximately 91,200 lots at FY 2006’s second-quarter-end.

Projecting revenues and earnings results remains very difficult in the current environment. Based on its current backlog, the impact of lessened first-quarter contracts and the continuing higher-than-normal rate of cancellations, the Company expects to deliver between 6,000 and 7,000 homes in FY 2007, compared to its previous guidance of 6,300 to 7,300 homes, and to produce total home building revenues of between $4.20 billion and $4.96 billion. It projects net income of between $240 million and $305 million, or $1.46 to $1.85 per share diluted, assuming 164.8 million shares outstanding in FY 2007. This projection assumes future write-downs of $60 million in the final three quarters of FY 2007, although the final number could be significantly higher or lower. Prior to its conference call this afternoon at 12:00 Noon (EST), the Company will file a Form 8-K with the Securities and Exchange Commission outlining its guidance assumptions in greater detail.

Robert I. Toll, chairman and chief executive officer, stated: “There are too many soft markets at this stage of the selling season to call a general upturn in the new home market. Demand varies greatly from week to week in individual markets.

“The metro New York City high-rise market offers a glimpse of what one might expect when consumer confidence rebounds. An article in Monday’s New York Times described multiple bids on properties that have been on the market for less than a week. The New York City market is somewhat unique in that it did not markedly decline to the degree most other markets have in the past twelve to eighteen months. It did experience some softness in the second half of 2006 due to consumer concern about the direction of home prices, but this concern appears to have dramatically reversed itself in January of 2007. We believe that pent-up demand is building in many markets as potential buyers bide their time until they are confident prices have firmed.

“Our financial strength was recognized this quarter by all three of the credit rating agencies that monitor our industry as Fitch, Moody’s and Standard and Poors’ each reaffirmed its investment grade credit ratings for Toll Brothers. We ended our first quarter with $1.1 billion unused and available under our bank revolving credit facility, nearly $450 million in cash and a net debt to capital ratio of 33.4%.

“In the current challenging environment, we believe our access to reliable capital and our strong balance sheet give us an important competitive advantage. Based on our experience during past cycles, we have learned that unexpected opportunities may arise in difficult times for those who are well-prepared. We believe that our solid financial base, our broad geographic presence, our diversified product lines and our national brand name all position us well for such opportunities now and in the future.”

Toll Brothers’ financial highlights for the first quarter ended January 31, 2007 (unaudited):

• FY 2007’s first-quarter net income was $54.3 million, or $0.33 per share diluted, compared to FY 2006’s first-quarter record of $163.9 million, or $0.98 per share diluted. In FY 2007, first-quarter net income included pre-tax write-downs and a goodwill impairment charge totaling $105.9 million, or $0.39 per share diluted, after tax. Approximately $13.9 million of the land-related write-downs were attributable to optioned lots and approximately $83.0 million to operating communities and owned land, while approximately $9 million was attributable to a goodwill impairment charge related to the Company’s 1999 purchase of the Silverman Companies in metro Detroit. In FY 2006, first-quarter pre-tax write-downs totaled $1.1 million. FY 2007 first-quarter earnings per share, including write-downs, declined 66% versus FY 2006; excluding write-downs and the impairment charge, earnings per share were $0.72 diluted, down 27% versus FY 2006.

• FY 2007’s first-quarter revenues of $1.09 billion decreased 19% from FY 2006’s first-quarter revenues of $1.34 billion, the first-quarter record.

• In the Company’s fiscal 2007 first-quarter, unconsolidated entities in which the Company had an interest, had revenues of $20.6 million compared to $52.1 million in the same period of FY 2006. The Company’s share of the profits from the delivery of these homes is included in ‘Equity Earnings from Unconsolidated Entities’ on the Company’s Income Statement.

In addition, in FY 2007’s first quarter, unconsolidated entities in which the Company had an interest signed contracts of $29.2 million.

• First-quarter FY 2007 cancellations totaled 436 versus 585 in fourth quarter FY 2006 and FY 2007’s first-quarter cancellation rate of 29.8% was lower than the 36.9% cancellation rate in FY 2006’s fourth quarter.

• The Company ended its FY 2007 first quarter with a net debt to capital ratio of 33.4%. Net debt to capital is defined and calculated as total debt minus mortgage warehouse loans minus cash divided by total debt minus mortgage warehouse loans minus cash plus stockholders’ equity.

*more*

• In FY 2007, based on its FY 2007 first quarter backlog, the state of current demand and cancellations, the Company projects to deliver between 6,000 and 7,000 homes at an average price of between $670,000 and $680,000. The Company also projects revenues of between $180 million and $195 million in FY 2007 from buildings accounted for under the percentage of completion method.
