Expanding our geographic footprint into four new states and seven new markets.
With the acquisition of Sharp Residential, LLC, we entered metro Atlanta and with the acquisition of Sabal Homes LLC, we entered Charleston, Greenville and Myrtle Beach, South Carolina. Both companies offer a wide range of price points to their customers. We also opened our first communities in Salt Lake City, Utah and Portland, Oregon. The Company now operates in over 50 markets in 23 states and the District of Columbia.
|
|
•
|
Continuing to expand our product lines and broadening our price points
. Our for-sale communities now include single-family homes, attached products ranging from two- and three-plex to high-density multi-plex buildings of 30-60 residences; and mid- and high-rise luxury urban condominium communities of up to several hundred residences. In addition, we have built a significant rental platform that develops upscale rental apartments and student housing in both suburban and urban locations across the country. Most recently, we entered the purpose-built single-family rental market in partnership with an experienced operator and a major financial institution.

Maintaining a strong balance sheet with significant liquidity to support our growth and ensure access to long-term, attractively priced capital.
We ended fiscal year
2019
with $1.29 billion in cash and cash equivalents and had $1.73 billion available under our bank revolving credit facility. During fiscal
2019
, we increased our bank revolving credit facility from $1.295 billion to $1.905 billion. We extended the facility's maturity to five years along with that of our $800.0 million term loan facility. We also raised $400.0 million of ten-year 3.8% debt in the public capital markets, a portion of which we later used to retire $250.0 million of more expensive maturing public debt.
|
|
•
|
Remaining focused on improving capital efficiency
. While maintaining a strong balance sheet and ample liquidity to grow our business, we remained focused on improving capital efficiency through, among other initiatives, our land acquisition process.
|
|
•
|
Returning capital to stockholders
. In fiscal
2019
, we repurchased $233.5 million of stock and paid dividends totaling $0.44 per share. In December
2019
, our Board of Directors renewed its authorization for us to repurchase up to 20.0 million of our outstanding shares.

Director RSUs are typically granted on a date within the last 15 days of December that is determined in advance by the Board. Director RSUs vest in equal annual installments over two years, and shares underlying Director RSUs are generally deliverable 30 days after the vesting of the second installment. Director RSUs earn dividend equivalents at the same time and in the same amount as dividends paid on the Company’s common stock; dividend equivalents are subject to the same vesting, settlement, and other terms and conditions as the Director RSUs to which the dividend equivalents relate. Upon a change of control of the Company or upon the death, disability, or retirement of the director, Director RSUs will vest immediately, and shares underlying Director RSUs will be deliverable 30 days after vesting (subject to a six-month delay in delivery if required to comply with Section 409A of the tax code). Starting with the Director RSUs granted in December 2019, accelerated vesting of Director RSUs will occur following a change of control only upon the Director ceasing to be a director of the Company.

Expanding our geographic footprint into four new states and seven new markets.
With the acquisition of Sharp Residential, LLC, we entered metro Atlanta and with the acquisition of Sabal Homes LLC, we entered Charleston, Greenville and Myrtle Beach, South Carolina. Both companies offer a wide range of price points to their customers. We also opened our first communities in Salt Lake City, Utah and Portland, Oregon. The Company now operates in over 50 markets in 23 states and the District of Columbia.

Continuing to expand our product lines and broadening our price points
. Our for-sale communities now include single-family homes, attached products ranging from two- and three-plex to high-density multi-plex buildings of 30-60 residences; and mid- and high-rise luxury urban condominium communities of up to several hundred residences. In addition, we have built a significant rental platform that develops upscale rental apartments and student housing in both suburban and urban locations across the country. Most recently, we entered the purpose-built single-family rental market in partnership with an experienced operator and a major financial institution.

Maintaining a strong balance sheet with significant liquidity to support our growth and ensure access to long-term, attractively priced capital.
We ended fiscal year
2019
with $1.29 billion in cash and cash equivalents and had $1.73 billion available under our bank revolving credit facility. During fiscal
2019
, we increased our bank revolving credit facility from $1.295 billion to $1.905 billion. We extended the facility's maturity to five years along with that of our $800.0 million term loan facility. We also raised $400.0 million of ten-year 3.8% debt in the public capital markets, a portion of which we later used to retire $250.0 million of more expensive maturing public debt.

Remaining focused on improving capital efficiency
. While maintaining a strong balance sheet and ample liquidity to grow our business, we remained focused on improving capital efficiency through, among other initiatives, our land acquisition process.
|
|
•
|
Returning capital to stockholders
. In fiscal
2019
, we repurchased $233.5 million of stock and paid dividends totaling $0.44 per share. In December
2019
, our Board of Directors renewed its authorization for us to repurchase up to 20.0 million of our outstanding shares.

|
Operational PRSUs
: the number of shares earned in respect of operational performance-based RSUs ("Ops PRSUs") was approximately 103.5% of target for our CEO.

Incentivize executives to manage risks appropriately while attempting to improve our financial results, performance, and condition over both the short-term and the long-term
. The Compensation Committee, by seeking a balance of short-term and long-term compensation, seeks to motivate and reward our NEOs for decisions made today that may not produce immediate or short-term results, but are intended to have a positive long-term effect.
|
|
•
|
Align executive and stockholder interests
. The Compensation Committee believes that the use of equity compensation, including the use of PRSUs as a key component of executive compensation, is a valuable tool for aligning the interests of our NEOs with those of our stockholders and to reward actions that demonstrate long-term vision.
|
|
•
|
Set compensation levels that are competitive to attract, motivate, and reward the highest quality individuals to contribute to our goals and overall financial success
. By keeping compensation competitive during times of growth as well as contraction, the Compensation Committee attempts to retain executives through the phases of the real estate market cycle.

Retain executives and encourage continued service.
It is important that we concentrate on retaining and developing the capabilities of our current leaders and emerging leaders to ensure that we continue to have an appropriate depth of executive talent.

We employ our NEOs at will and do not enter into individualized employment agreements.

We do not provide excise tax gross-ups.

◦
|
We have policies that prohibit directors and NEOs from hedging and pledging Company shares (other than with respect to pledges of a portion of Mr. Toll's ownership interest).
|

Double-trigger change-of-control provision in equity awards.
Beginning with equity awards granted in December 2019, a double-trigger mechanism applies to each type of equity award, which requires an actual or constructive termination in connection with the occurrence of a change-in-control event for vesting of equity awards to accelerate.
|
|
•
|
For the
annual incentive bonus
, the formulaic component of the award was increased to
70%
from 60%
. Performance continues to be judged under the formulaic component based on achievement relative to the PTI Metric. The Compensation Committee determined that the increase in the formulaic portion of the award would enhance the objectivity and transparency of the award, while retaining for the Committee an appropriate level of discretion based on its qualitative judgment of individual and Company performance, which the Committee believes is important in light of the cyclical nature of the residential real estate industry.
|
|
•
|
The payout range for the
annual incentive bonus
and
all PRSUs
was conformed to 75% to 150% of target for all awards (assuming threshold performance is met). Previously, assuming threshold performance was met, the payout range was 80% to 120% of target for the annual incentive bonus, 90% - 110% of target for Ops PRSUs, and 50% - 200% of target for total TSR PRSUs. Conforming the payout ranges to 75% - 150% of target was intended to increase the leverage embedded in our incentive compensation vehicles and further strengthen the link between pay and performance. Additionally, except for TSR PRSUs (for which threshold performance remained unchanged at the 25th percentile), the minimum threshold for payout to occur under each incentive compensation vehicle is 80% of target, with maximum achievement determined at 120%. Previously, the performance range for the annual incentive bonus and Ops PRSUs were identical to the applicable payout range.

Adoption of a formal severance plan for key executives.
In recognition of the prevalence of severance plans among our peers, the need to attract and retain talented executives and to help ensure key executives' continued attention and dedication to the Company in connection with certain transactions, the Company adopted the Toll Brothers, Inc. Executive Severance Plan (the "Severance Plan") effective in March 2019. Under the Severance Plan, certain executives, including our NEOs, are entitled to cash severance payments upon specified separations from employment, with multiples for our NEOs ranging from 1.5 to 2.5 times base salary and target bonus, and with a double-trigger requirement for any benefits to be paid following a termination in

Increased multiples in the Stock Ownership Guidelines.
In December 2018, the Board approved an increase in the stock ownership multiples applicable to executive officers and directors:
|
|
◦

For our CEO, the multiple was increased from 3.0x to 6.0x base salary.
|
|
◦
|
For our other NEOs, the multiple was increased from 1.0x to 3.0x base salary.
|
|
◦

For our directors, the multiple was increased from 3.0x the total annual cash retainer to 5.0x the annual base cash retainer.

Delivery of 8,107 homes in fiscal
2019
, which exceeded internal projections and analyst consensus estimates.
|
|
•
|
The Company entered four new states and seven new markets in fiscal
2019
, including Atlanta, Georgia through the acquisition of Sharp Residential, LLC, and Charleston, Greenville, and Myrtle Beach, South Carolina through the acquisition of Sabal Homes LLC. The Company also opened its first communities in Salt Lake City, Utah, and Portland, Oregon.
|

•
|
Management successfully navigated a challenging market during the first half of the fiscal year while continuing to diversify the Company's price points and product lines, including by expanding its affordable luxury and active adult communities.
|
|
•
|
The Company successfully transitioned the Chief Operating Officer role to two new co-Chief Operating Officers and continued to refresh its senior management team with recent appointments of a new chief marketing officer, president of TBI Mortgage and chief accounting officer.
|
|
•

In connection with the Chief Operating Officer transition, the Company realigned its regional operating structure and appointed three new Regional Presidents and four new Group Presidents.

The Company responsibly managed its balance sheet and liquidity. During fiscal
2019
, the Company increased its bank revolving credit facility from $1.295 billion to $1.905 billion and extended its maturity to five years along with that of our $800.0 million term loan facility. The Company also raised $400.0 million of ten-year 3.8% debt in the public capital markets, a portion of which was later used to retire $250.0 million of more expensive maturing public debt.

The mix of PRSUs and stock options reflected in the charts above differs from the 70% / 30% mix approved by the Compensation Committee for Messrs. Yearley and Connor primarily because, when determining the number of stock options that are subject to an award, the Company values the stock options for such purpose based on relative grant date fair values of prior stock option awards, as described further under "Fiscal 2019 Long Term Incentive Awards - Stock Options" on page 41.

Each performance metric had a threshold level that, if achieved, would earn 75% of the Ops PRSUs allocated to that metric; a target level that, if achieved, would earn 100% of the Ops PRSUs allocated to that metric; and a maximum level that, if achieved, would earn 150% of the Ops PRSUs allocated to that metric. To the extent that actual performance results fell between these levels, the Ops PRSUs earned would be determined by linear interpolation between those levels. If the minimum threshold performance level of 80% of target performance was not achieved for any individual metric, none of the Ops PRSUs would have been earned for that metric.

These columns present the aggregate grant date fair value of RSUs, PRSUs and stock options, respectively, granted in the indicated fiscal year, calculated in accordance with ASC 718 utilizing the assumptions discussed in Note 10 in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in the Form 10-K, excluding the effect of estimated forfeitures. The amounts shown in these columns do not reflect compensation actually received by the NEOs. The actual value, if any, that an NEO may realize from an award is contingent upon the satisfaction of the conditions to vesting in that award, including, for PRSUs, any applicable performance conditions, and, for stock options, upon the excess of the share price over the exercise price, if any, on the date the stock options are exercised. Thus, the value, if any, eventually realized by the NEOs is unlikely to equal amounts shown in these columns.
|
|

|
The annual incentive bonuses for Messrs. Yearley, Hartman and Connor for fiscal
2019
were earned based on target bonus amounts established by the Compensation Committee for PTI Metric performance (70% of bonus amount) and its qualitative assessment of individual and Company performance (30% of bonus amount) as more fully described under "Cash Compensation Decisions—Fiscal
2019
Annual Incentive Bonus" starting on page 36.

|
The amounts in this column represent the increase in the actuarial present value of accumulated benefits under the SERP for each NEO and the amount of above-market interest earned on their respective balances, if applicable, in the Deferred Compensation Plan and the 2015 Plan. Mr. McDonald did not participate in the 2015 Plan during the fiscal years indicated in the table above. The amounts attributed to the increase or decrease in actuarial present value of SERP benefits and above-market interest on deferred compensation are as follows (see also the Pension Benefits During Fiscal
2019
table on page 56). Although an amount is presented for Mr. McDonald in these tables, Mr. McDonald relinquished any entitlement to benefits under the SERP in connection with his resignation.

The Compensation Committee met on
January 28, 2019
to make determinations for our NEOs with respect to Ops PRSU grants for our NEOs for fiscal
2019
. All other grants of equity compensation under our annual long-term incentive compensation program were made on
December 20, 2018
, which is consistent with our practice of awarding equity compensation described under “Fiscal
2019
Long-Term Incentive Compensation” on page 38.
|
|
(2)
|
Reflects PRSUs the Compensation Committee awarded to our NEOs under the 2014 Stock Incentive Plan for Employees (the "2014 SIP"). PRSUs earn dividend equivalents at the same time and in the same amount as dividends paid on the Company’s common stock; dividend equivalents are subject to the same vesting, settlement, and other terms and conditions as the PRSUs to which the dividend equivalents relate. See “Fiscal
2019
Long-Term Incentive Compensation—Performance-Based RSUs” on page 39 for further information.
|
|
(3)
|
See “Fiscal
2019
Long-Term Incentive Compensation—Stock Options" on page 41 for a discussion of these stock option grants, which were awarded under the 2014 SIP. The exercise price of the stock options granted in fiscal
2019
is the closing price of the Company's common stock on the grant date.
|
|
(4)
|
Amount represents the aggregate grant date fair value of PRSUs and stock options, respectively, granted in fiscal
2019
, calculated in accordance with ASC 718 utilizing the assumptions discussed in Note 10 in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in the Form 10-K. The calculation of these amounts disregards the estimate of forfeitures related to time-based vesting conditions. With respect to PRSUs, the estimate of the grant date fair value is determined in accordance with ASC 718 assuming the vesting of 100% of the PRSUs awarded.
|
|
(5)
|
See "Fiscal 2019 Annual Incentive Bonus" on page 36. The formulaic portion of the annual incentive award had a threshold level that, if achieved, would earn 75% of target; a target level that, if achieved, would have earned 100% of target; and a maximum level that, if achieved, would have earned 150% of target. To the extent that actual performance results fell between these levels, the amount earned would have been determined by linear interpolation between those levels. If the minimum threshold performance level of 80% was not achieved, no amount would have been earned with respect to the formulaic portion of the award.
|
|
(6)
|
The annual incentive bonuses for fiscal
2019
were earned based on target bonus amounts established by the Compensation Committee on
January 28, 2019
for PTI Metric performance (70% of bonus amount) and its qualitative assessment of individual and Company performance (30% of bonus amount), as more fully described under “Fiscal 2019 Annual Incentive Bonus” on page 36.

“Value Realized on Exercise” equals the difference between the closing price of the Company's common stock on the NYSE on the various dates of exercise and the exercise price, multiplied by the number of shares of common stock acquired upon exercise of the stock options.
|

With the exception of TSR RSUs, all RSUs, whether or not performance-based generally vest in equal installments on the first four anniversaries of the grant date, with delivery of the shares underlying such RSUs deferred until the fourth anniversary (in each case, subject to a six-month delay in delivery if required to comply with Section 409A of the tax code). Accordingly, the "Number of Shares Acquired on Vesting" for Messrs. Yearley, Hartman and Connor includes (a) the portion of the Ops PRSUs granted in fiscal 2015 that vested and were delivered on December 19, 2018, (b) the portion of the Ops PRSUs granted in fiscal 2016 that vested on December 18, 2018 and were delivered on December 18, 2019, (c) the portion of Ops PRSUs granted in fiscal 2017 that vested on December 20, 2018 but will not be delivered until December 20, 2020, and (d) the portion of Ops PRSUs granted in fiscal 2018 that vested on December 18, 2018 but will not be delivered until December 18, 2021. For Mr. McDonald, the amount includes (a) the portion of RSUs granted to him in fiscal 2015, 2016, 2017 and 2018 that vested during fiscal 2019 and which were delivered on January 5, 2019 (or which will be delivered following a six-month delay following his termination of employment on December 31, 2019).
|
|

|
“Value Realized on Vesting” is based on the number of shares of the Company's common stock underlying the RSUs that vested during fiscal 2019 multiplied by the closing price of the Company's common stock on the NYSE on the vesting date.

In order to be vested in benefits under the SERP, participants generally must have reached age 58, except participants will be vested in SERP benefits in the event of death or disability prior to age 58 after five years of service. The number of years of credited services does not impact SERP benefits, except for the five-year service requirement for vesting in death or disability benefits prior to age 58.

For a description of the assumptions used in the calculation of the present value of plan benefits, see Note 13, “Employee Retirement and Deferred Compensation Plans” in the notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements contained in the Form 10-K. The change in the actuarial present value of accumulated benefits under the SERP reflected in the Summary Compensation Table on page 51 is due to a change in the discount rate used for actuarial purposes and the passage of time. We use the Citigroup yield curve as our discount rate for calculating the actuarial present value of accumulated SERP benefits. This rate was
3.19%
for fiscal
2017
,
4.07%
for fiscal
2018
, and
2.64%
for fiscal
2019
. When the discount rate increases, as it did in fiscal 2018 and fiscal 2017, the actuarial present value of accumulated SERP benefits decreases. When the discount rate decreases, as it did in fiscal 2019, the actuarial present value of accumulated SERP benefits increases.
|
|

|
In connection with his resignation, Mr. McDonald relinquished any entitlement to benefits under the SERP.

For purposes of this table, “Voluntary Resignation” means a voluntary termination of employment when the executive is not retirement-eligible, and that is not a resignation for "good reason" for purposes of the Severance Plan. Since Mr. Yearley is retirement-eligible, a voluntary resignation would be treated as a retirement.
|
|
(2)
|
As described above, amounts shown in this column do not include the value of unvested equity awards that will continue to vest (but do not accelerate) or the value of Mr. Yearley's SERP benefits.
|
|
(3)
|
Also includes a voluntary resignation for "good reason" for purposes of the Severance Plan.
|
|
(4)
|
As described above, all outstanding unvested stock options and PRSUs would have vested upon the occurrence of a change of control on
October 31, 2019
.
|
|
(5)
|
See the description of the Executive Severance Plan on page 46. Amounts set forth are subject to possible reduction if the excise tax under Section 4999 of the tax code would apply. In addition to the amounts included in this table, Mr. Yearley would have been entitled to a pro-rata annual incentive bonus for the year in which employment is terminated. The annual incentive bonus is reported in the Summary Compensation Table on page 51.
|
|
(6)
|
As described above, Mr. Yearley would be entitled to continued vesting (but not acceleration) of any unvested stock options upon his retirement, involuntary termination without cause, death or disability on October 31, 2019. See the footnotes to the
|
|
(7)
|
Mr. Yearley is fully vested in his SERP benefits. Upon a change of control of the Company, he would have become eligible for a lump-sum payout equal to the actuarial equivalent present value of their benefits as of the payment date. See the “Pension Benefits During Fiscal
2019
” table on page 56.
