CAVCO INDUSTRIES, INC.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
December 31, 2009
(Dollars in thousands, except per share data)
(Unaudited)
1. Basis of Presentation
The accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements of Cavco Industries, Inc., and its
subsidiaries (collectively, the Company or Cavco), have been prepared without audit pursuant to
the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) for Quarterly Reports
on Form 10-Q and Article 10 of SEC Regulation S-X. Accordingly, certain information and footnote
disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted
pursuant to such rules and regulations.
In the opinion of management, these statements include all the normal recurring adjustments
necessary to fairly state the Companys Consolidated Financial Statements. The Consolidated
Statements of Operations and Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for the interim periods are not
necessarily indicative of the results or cash flows for the full year. Certain prior period amounts
have been reclassified to conform to current period classification. The Company suggests that
these Consolidated Financial Statements be read in conjunction with the audited Consolidated
Financial Statements and the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Companys
Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on May 21, 2009 (the Form 10-K).
In June 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) approved the FASB Accounting
Standards Codification (the Codification or ASC) as the source of authoritative U.S. generally
accepted accounting principles (GAAP) recognized by the FASB to be applied by nongovernmental
entities. Rules and interpretive releases issued by the SEC are also sources of authoritative GAAP
for SEC registrants. The Codification supersedes all existing non-SEC accounting and reporting
standards. All other non-grandfathered non-SEC accounting literature not included in the
Codification has become non-authoritative. The Codification does not change GAAP, but instead
introduces a new structure that combines existing authoritative standards into a comprehensive,
topically organized online database. The Codification became effective for financial statements
issued for interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2009. The implementation of the
Codification did not impact our financial statements or disclosures other than references to
authoritative accounting literature are now made in accordance with the Codification.
As discussed further in Note 8, on July 15, 2009, the Company and an investment partner, Third
Avenue Value Fund (Third Avenue), formed FH Holding, Inc. (FH), with an equity contribution of
$35.0 million each for equal fifty-percent ownership interests. On July 21, 2009, FH entered into
an Asset Purchase Agreement (the Purchase Agreement) with Fleetwood Enterprises, Inc.
(Fleetwood) and certain of its subsidiaries to purchase certain assets and liabilities of its
manufactured housing business. On August 17, 2009 (the Acquisition Date), FH acquired seven
operating manufactured housing plants and two idle factories. FH also purchased all related
equipment, accounts receivable, inventory, certain trademarks and trade names, intellectual
property, and specified contracts and leases; and assumed express warranty liabilities pertaining
to certain of the previous operations. The purchase price of the transaction was $25.8 million and
was paid in cash.
Effective August 20, 2009, the name of the Companys new subsidiary was changed from FH
Holding, Inc. to Fleetwood Homes, Inc. (Fleetwood Homes). The results of the new Fleetwood Homes
operations have been included in the Consolidated Financial Statements and the related Notes since
the Acquisition Date in accordance with the provisions of FASB ASC Topic 810 Consolidation.
Management has determined that, although Fleetwood Homes is only fifty-percent owned by the
Company, Cavco has a controlling interest and is required to fully consolidate the results of
Fleetwood Homes. The primary factors that contributed to this determination were Cavcos board
control and management control of Fleetwood Homes. To that end, members of Cavcos management hold
two out of three total seats on the board of directors of Fleetwood Homes. In addition, as part of
a management services agreement among Cavco, Fleetwood Homes and Third Avenue, Cavco provides all
executive-level management services to Fleetwood Homes including, among other things, general
management oversight, marketing and customer relations, accounting and cash management. Third
Avenues financial interest
in Fleetwood Homes is considered a noncontrolling interest, as determined by generally
accepted accounting principles, and is designated as such in the Consolidated Financial Statements.

The Companys inventory finance notes receivable balance consists of amounts loaned by the
Company under special inventory financing programs for the benefit of our independent retailers
home product inventory needs. Under the terms of these programs, the Company provides a
significant portion of the funds that third-party financiers then lend to finance retail
inventories of our products. In certain of these programs, the Company also assumes the risk of
loss and therefore recorded an applicable loss reserve. While some manufacturers are unable or
have elected not to participate in such inventory finance programs, the Companys financial
capabilities have enabled such sources of manufactured home inventory finance to be available to
retailers for Cavco and Fleetwood Homes products.
The Companys deferred tax assets primarily result from financial statement accruals not
currently deductible for tax purposes, and its deferred tax liabilities primarily result from tax
amortization of goodwill. The Company increased its deferred tax balances during the second fiscal
quarter ended September 30, 2009 as a result of the Fleetwood Homes acquisition.
The Company complies with the provisions of FASB ASC 740, Income Taxes, which clarifies the
accounting for income taxes by prescribing a minimum recognition threshold a tax position is
required to meet before being recognized in the financial statements. FASB ASC 740 also provides
guidance on derecognizing, measurement, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in
interim periods, disclosure and transition. The Company has recorded an insignificant amount of
unrecognized tax benefits and there would be an insignificant effect on the effective tax rate if
all unrecognized tax benefits were recognized. The Company classifies interest and penalties
related to unrecognized tax benefits in tax expense.
The income tax benefit recognized during the nine months ended December 31, 2009, is the
result of current period taxable losses and the Companys belief that it will be able to fully
realize the benefits associated with its deferred tax assets. Income tax returns are filed in the
U.S. federal jurisdiction and in several state jurisdictions. The Company is no longer subject to
examination by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) for years before fiscal year 2007. In June
2009, the Arizona Department of Revenue completed its audit for the fiscal years ended March 31,
2004 through March 31, 2006, which resulted in an insignificant overpayment refunded to the Company
during the second quarter of fiscal year 2010. The Company is no longer subject to examinations by
tax authorities in Arizona and California for years before fiscal year 2006. The Company believes
that its income tax filing positions and deductions will be sustained on audit and does not
anticipate any adjustments that will result in a material change to the Companys financial
position. The total amount of unrecognized tax benefit related to any particular tax position is
not anticipated to change significantly within the next 12 months.
During the first quarter of fiscal year 2010, the Company moved its park model and vacation
cabin manufacturing operations from its Specialty plant to a second production line at its Cavco
West facility (formerly known as the Litchfield facility). Both of these plants are located in the
metropolitan area of Phoenix, Arizona. This move provided greater capabilities for the production
of park models, cabins, and other specialty buildings, created improved overall operational
efficiencies at the Cavco West factory, and is serving to gradually reduce overhead expenses. The
costs associated with this transition were not material. The Company is evaluating its options with
respect to the idle Specialty plant, including the potential sale or lease of the facility.
Revenue from homes sold to independent retailers is generally recognized when the home is
shipped, at which time title passes to the independent retailer, and collectability is reasonably
assured. Homes sold to independent retailers are generally either paid for prior to shipment or
financed by the independent retailer through standard industry arrangements, which include
repurchase agreements. Manufacturing sales are reduced by a provision for estimated repurchase
obligations (see Note 4). Revenue from homes sold under special inventory finance programs
involving funds provided by the Company is deferred until such time that payment for the related
loan receivable is received by the Company. Retail sales by Company-owned retail locations are
recognized when funding is reasonably assured, the customer has entered into a legally binding
sales contract, title has transferred and the home is accepted by the customer, delivered and
permanently located at the customers site.

In September 2006, the FASB issued a pronouncement, now included in FASB ASC Topic 820, Fair
Value Measurements and Disclosures, which defines the term fair value, establishes a framework for
measuring fair value and enhances related disclosures. This guidance was effective for financial
statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. In February 2008, the FASB
issued another pronouncement that delayed the effective date of the guidance to fiscal years
beginning after November 15, 2008 for the majority of non-financial assets and non-financial
liabilities. Therefore, effective April 1, 2008, the Company adopted the guidance for financial
assets and liabilities and, effective April 1, 2009, the Company adopted the guidance for
non-financial assets and non-financial liabilities, which had no effect on our consolidated
financial position, results of operations or cash flows. As of December 31, 2009, the Company had
no assets or liabilities required to be measured at fair value pursuant to FASB ASC 820.
In December 2007, the FASB issued its pronouncements regarding business combinations and
noncontrolling interest in consolidated financial statements, currently contained in FASB ASC Topic
805, Business Combinations, and FASB ASC Topic 810, Consolidation, respectively, which
significantly changed the financial accounting and reporting of business combination transactions
and noncontrolling interests in consolidated financial statements. The pronouncements were
effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008. Therefore, effective April 1, 2009,
the Company adopted the new business combination and consolidation guidance, which affected the
accounting for the Fleetwood Homes transaction that closed on August 17, 2009. As a result of the
new business combinations pronouncement, $750 in acquisition-related transaction costs were
required to be expensed as incurred in fiscal year 2010 rather than capitalized as part of the
purchase price. Also, the differing treatment of these transaction-related costs for tax purposes
affected the deferred income taxes recorded as of the Acquisition Date. In addition, the new
noncontrolling interest guidance resulted in classifying Third Avenues financial interest in
Fleetwood Homes as a noncontrolling interest in the equity section of the Balance Sheet rather
than being presented as a mezzanine item between liabilities and equity.
In May 2009, the FASB issued its pronouncement regarding subsequent events intended to
establish general standards of accounting for and disclosures of events that occur after the
balance sheet date but before financial statements are issued or are available to be issued. The
pronouncement, now included in FASB ASC Topic 855, Subsequent Events, requires disclosure of the
date through which an entity has evaluated subsequent events and the basis for that date, and is
effective for interim and annual periods ending after June 15, 2009. The Company has evaluated
subsequent events after the balance sheet date of December 31, 2009 through the date of issuance,
February 9, 2010, and there were no disclosable subsequent events as of February 9, 2010.
For a description of other significant accounting policies used by the Company in the
preparation of its Consolidated Financial Statements, please refer to Note 1 of the Notes to
Consolidated Financial Statements in the Form 10-K.

4. Contingencies
Repurchase Contingencies The Company is contingently liable under terms of repurchase
agreements with financial institutions providing inventory financing for retailers of its products.
These arrangements, which are customary in the industry, provide for the repurchase of products
sold to retailers in the event of default by the retailer. The risk of loss under these agreements
is spread over numerous retailers. The price the Company is obligated to pay generally declines
over the period of the agreement (generally 18 to 36 months) and is further reduced by the resale
value of the homes. The maximum amount for which the Company was contingently liable under such
agreements approximated $14,922 at December 31, 2009, without reduction for the resale value of the
homes. The Company applies the Guarantees Topic of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (FASB
ASC 460) and FASB ASC 450-20, Loss Contingencies, to account for its liability for repurchase
commitments. Under the provisions of FASB ASC 460, the Company records the greater of the estimated
value of the non-contingent obligation or a contingent liability for each repurchase arrangement
under the provisions of FASB ASC 450-20. The Company recorded an estimated liability of $990 at
December 31, 2009 related to these commitments.
Letter of Credit The Company maintains a $550 outstanding letter of credit with J.P.
Morgan Chase Bank N.A. for any remaining claims under a self-funded workers compensation program,
which concluded on September 30, 2006. There have been no draws against the letter of credit.
7
Legal Matters The Company is party to certain legal proceedings that arise in the ordinary
course and are incidental to its business. Certain of the claims pending against the Company in
these proceedings allege, among other things, breach of contract and warranty, product liability
and personal injury. Although litigation is inherently uncertain, based on past experience and the
information currently available, management does not believe that the currently pending and
threatened litigation or claims will have a material adverse effect on the Companys consolidated
financial position, liquidity or results of operations. However, future events or circumstances
currently unknown to management will determine whether the resolution of pending or threatened
litigation or claims will ultimately have a material effect on the Companys consolidated financial
position, liquidity or results of operations in any future reporting periods.
5. Stock-Based Compensation
The Company maintains stock incentive plans whereby stock option grants or awards of
restricted stock may be made to certain officers, directors and key employees. The plans, which
are shareholder approved, permit the award of up to 1,350,000 shares of the Companys common stock,
of which 414,626 shares were still available for grant at December 31, 2009. When options are
exercised, new shares of the Companys common stock are issued. Stock options may not be granted
below 100% of the fair market value of the Companys common stock at the date of grant and
generally expire seven years from the date of grant. Stock options and awards of restricted stock
vest over a three to five-year period. The stock incentive plans provide for accelerated vesting
of stock options and removal of restrictions on restricted stock awards upon a change in control
(as defined in the plans).

6. Earnings Per Share
Basic earnings per share is computed based on the weighted-average number of shares of common
stock outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed based on the
weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period increased by the
weighted-average number of dilutive common stock equivalents outstanding during the period, using
the treasury stock method. However, when a net loss exists, no potential common stock equivalents
are included in the computation of the diluted per-share amount because the computation would
result in an anti-dilutive per-share amount. The following table sets forth the computation of
basic and diluted earnings per share (in thousands, except per share data):

There were 236,132 and 4,768 anti-dilutive common stock equivalents excluded from the computation
of diluted earnings per share for the nine months ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively.
7. Discontinued Operations
The Company has plans to dispose of certain of its retail sales centers and these operations
are considered discontinued retail operations. Included in the accompanying Consolidated Balance
Sheet are finished goods inventories to be liquidated in conjunction with the disposal of these
retail sales centers of approximately $275 at December 31, 2009. There were no operating losses
for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2009 or 2008 for the stores identified for
disposal as the costs related to the liquidation of inventory were consistent with managements
expectations of net realizable values. Net sales for the retail sales centers to be disposed of
approximated $535 and $9 for the three month periods ended December 31, 2009 and 2008,
respectively, and $1,063 and $1,617 for the nine month periods ended December 31, 2009 and 2008,
respectively.
8. Acquisition
On July 15, 2009, the Company and an investment partner, Third Avenue, formed FH Holding, Inc.
with an equity contribution of $35.0 million each for equal fifty-percent ownership interests. The
Company entered into agreements with FH and Third Avenue related to the formation and operation of
the new entity, including a shareholders agreement, a registration rights agreement, and a
management services agreement.
On July 21, 2009, FH entered into a Purchase Agreement with Fleetwood Enterprises, Inc. and
certain of its subsidiaries to purchase certain assets and liabilities of its manufactured housing
business. On August 17, 2009, FH acquired seven operating manufactured housing plants and two idle
factories. FH also purchased all related equipment, accounts receivable, inventory, certain
trademarks and trade names, intellectual property, and specified contracts and leases; and assumed
express warranty liabilities pertaining to certain of the previous operations. The operating
manufactured housing plants are located in Nampa, Idaho; Woodburn, Oregon; Riverside, California;
Waco, Texas; Lafayette, Tennessee; Douglas, Georgia; and Rocky Mount, Virginia. The idle plants
are located in Woodland, California and Waco, Texas.
9
In addition, in accordance with the Purchase Agreement, the parties or their affiliates
entered into a number of ancillary agreements related to the transaction, including: (1) a
transition services agreement, pursuant to which Fleetwood will provide certain fee-based
transition services to FH; and (2) a co-existence agreement describing the rights to certain of
Fleetwoods transferred intellectual property. These agreements were subsequently assigned by
Fleetwood to unrelated third parties as part of its plan of reorganization pursuant to Chapter 11
of the United States Bankruptcy Code.
Effective August 20, 2009, the name of the Companys new subsidiary was changed from FH
Holding, Inc. to Fleetwood Homes, Inc. The results of the new Fleetwood Homes operations have been
included in the Consolidated Financial Statements and the related Notes since the Acquisition Date
in accordance with the provisions of FASB ASC Topic 810 Consolidation. Management has determined
that, although Fleetwood Homes is only fifty-percent owned by the Company, Cavco has a controlling
interest and is required to fully consolidate the results of Fleetwood Homes. The primary factors
that contributed to this determination were Cavcos board control and management control of
Fleetwood Homes. To that end, members of Cavcos management hold two out of three total seats on
the board of directors of Fleetwood Homes. In addition, as part of the management services
agreement, Cavco provides all executive-level management services to Fleetwood Homes including,
among other things, general management oversight, marketing and customer relations, accounting and
cash management. Third Avenues financial interest in Fleetwood Homes is considered a
noncontrolling interest, as determined by generally accepted accounting principles, and is
designated as such in the Consolidated Financial Statements.
The transaction expanded the Companys geographic reach to a national level by adding
factories serving the South, Mid-Atlantic and Northwest regions. The Company expects to achieve
certain synergies and cost reductions by eliminating redundant processes and overhead.
The acquisition-date fair value of the cash consideration transferred totaled $25.8 million.
Neither Fleetwood Homes nor the Company incurred debt in connection with the purchase or subsequent
operations.
The following table summarizes the estimated fair values of the assets acquired and
liabilities assumed at the acquisition date (in thousands). The provisional measurements of
certain assets and liabilities, including intangible assets and deferred income tax assets and
liabilities are subject to change.

Of the $1,600 of acquired intangible assets, $800 was provisionally assigned to trademarks and
trade names, which are considered indefinite lived intangible assets and are not subject to
amortization and $800 was provisionally assigned to customer-related intangible subject to a useful
life of 15 years amortized on a straight-line basis.
The fair value of accounts receivables acquired is $2,097, with the gross contractual amount
being $2,305. The Company determined that $208 would be uncollectible and reduced the purchase
price by $208 per the terms of the purchase agreement.
The Company recognized $750 of acquisition related costs that were expensed as incurred.
These costs were recognized in selling, general and administrative expenses on the consolidated
statement of operations.
For the three months ended December 31, 2009, Fleetwood Homes recorded net sales of $20,707
and net loss of $276. For the period from the acquisition date through December 31, 2009, the
amounts included in the Companys consolidated statement of operations were $33,039 in net sales
and a $394 net loss.
The Company is not required to present the pro-forma consolidated statements of operations as
if Fleetwood Homes had been included in the consolidated results of the Company for the nine months
ending December 31, 2009 and December 31, 2008 because the transaction did not meet any of the
thresholds to be considered significant. Generally, the acquisition of a business is considered to
be significant if any of the significance tests pursuant to Regulation S-X Rule 1-02(w) (i.e. the
asset, income, or investment test) exceed the 20% level. In addition, disclosure of the Fleetwood
Homes pro-forma data is impracticable because only certain Fleetwood Homes manufactured housing
plants were purchased out of bankruptcy and reliable financial data suitable for this purpose was
not available.
The foregoing description of the Purchase Agreement does not purport to be complete and is
qualified in its entirety by reference to the Purchase Agreement, which was filed as Exhibit 10.1
to the Companys Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on July 23, 2009.

|
Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations |
Introduction
The following should be read in conjunction with the Companys Consolidated Financial
Statements and the related Notes that appear in Item 1 of this Report. References to Note or
Notes refer to the Notes to the Companys Consolidated Financial Statements that appear in Item 1
of this Report.
Overview
Headquartered in Phoenix, Arizona, the Company designs and produces factory-built homes, which
are sold to a network of retailers located throughout the continental United States. The products
we manufacture are sold under a variety of brand names including Cavco Homes and Fleetwood
Homes. We are the 2nd largest producer of HUD code manufactured homes in the United
States, based on wholesale shipments derived from 2008 total home production data of both Cavco and
Fleetwood Homes published by Manufactured Home Merchandiser magazine. The Company is also a
leading producer of park model homes and vacation cabins in the United States.
Recent Growth
As previously reported, the Company and an investment partner, Third Avenue Value Fund,
acquired certain manufactured housing assets and liabilities of Fleetwood Enterprises, Inc. on
August 17, 2009 through their jointly owned corporation, FH Holding, Inc., subsequently re-named
Fleetwood Homes, Inc. Third Avenue Management is an investment advisor to Third Avenue Value Fund
and is a principal stockholder of the Company.
Financial information for Fleetwood Homes is included in the Companys Consolidated Financial
Statements and the related Notes that appear in Item 1 of this report. Fleetwood Homes was formed
by the Company and Third Avenue with each contributing $35.0 million in exchange for equal
ownership interests. Although the Company holds a fifty-percent financial interest in Fleetwood
Homes, its results of operations are required to be fully consolidated. Third Avenues financial
interest in Fleetwood Homes is considered a noncontrolling interest, as determined by generally
accepted accounting principles, and is designated as such in the Consolidated Financial Statements.
The transaction included seven manufactured housing plants located in Nampa, Idaho; Woodburn,
Oregon; Riverside, California; Waco, Texas; Lafayette, Tennessee; Douglas, Georgia; and Rocky
Mount, Virginia, and two idle factories located in Woodland, California and Waco, Texas. Also,
Fleetwood Homes purchased all related equipment, accounts receivable, inventory, certain trademarks
and trade names, intellectual property, and specified contracts and leases and assumed express
warranty liabilities pertaining to certain of the previous operations. The purchase price of the
transaction was $25.8 million and was paid in cash (see Note 8). Neither Fleetwood Homes nor the
Company incurred debt in connection with the purchase or subsequent operations.
As of December 31, 2009, in addition to the seven factories listed above, the Company also
continued to operate its two homebuilding facilities located in Phoenix, Arizona as well as its
factory in Seguin, Texas. The integration of the Cavco and Fleetwood Homes operations has
progressed well. Operating styles and management philosophies have been merged and the business
has begun to operate as a cohesive organization. We are in the process of expanding our product
offerings throughout the combined organization via the sharing of product designs and production
methods. The supportive response by our customer base to the acquisition has been encouraging. We
expect to realize some operating efficiency improvements as a result of our larger size and buying
power although for a period of time, transition related expenses will mask a portion of such cost
savings.
The combined cash and cash equivalents of the Company totaled approximately $77.2 million on
December 31, 2009. We believe this level of capitalization should provide resources to the
operations of the Company sufficient to endure depressed current market conditions and to establish
a solid base for continued growth as conditions improve. We believe that the acquisition will be a
positive long-term strategic move for both the Cavco and Fleetwood Homes brands.
12
Industry and Company Outlook
The manufactured housing industry and the Company continue to operate at low production and
shipment levels. General economic challenges remain, including turmoil in the mortgage loan
markets, overall housing sector weakness, and low consumer confidence levels.
Excess site-built home inventory has had an adverse impact on the contingency contract
process, wherein potential homebuyers must sell their existing home in order to facilitate the
purchase of a new manufactured home. In addition, many on-site home builders with high inventory
levels are offering sizable incentives to homebuyers, creating added competition for the
factory-built housing industry. Also, competition from sales of repossessed site-built homes has
negatively impacted retail sales of new manufactured homes. As the site-built housing industry
improves, these negative impacts on the manufactured housing industry may begin to decrease. The
Manufactured Housing Institute recently reported that national home shipments for the industry as a
whole were down 39.2% for calendar year 2009, compared to the prior year.
The Company has operated with a minimal backlog throughout fiscal years 2009 and 2010. The
backlog of sales orders at December 31, 2009 varied among our ten factories, but in total was $2.5
million, which is less than one week of production.
Low margins on homes sold have characterized the current fiscal year to date, the result of
low price-point homes becoming an increasingly larger part of the Companys production mix.
Margins are also impacted by production inefficiencies inherent in the current environment of
reduced order rates. The Company has acted promptly to align its production levels with the
reduced incoming order flow, but has had limited ability to manage product pricing to maintain
historical gross margins. In addition, raw material prices have decreased only modestly in fiscal
year 2010 compared to the last fiscal year. The resulting squeeze on gross margins continues to
adversely affect the financial results of the Company.
In an effort to further streamline our cost structure in this environment, during the first
quarter of fiscal year 2010, the Company moved its park model and vacation cabin manufacturing
operations from its Specialty plant in Phoenix, Arizona to a second production line at its Cavco
West facility (formerly known as the Litchfield facility), also located in the Phoenix area. This
move provided greater capabilities for the production of park models, cabins, and other specialty
buildings, created improved overall operational efficiencies at the Cavco West factory, and is
serving to gradually reduce overhead expenses. The costs associated with this transition were
immaterial. The Company is evaluating its options with respect to the idle Specialty plant,
including the potential sale or lease of the facility.
Inventory financing for the industrys wholesale distribution chain continues to be in short
supply. Faced with illiquid capital markets in late calendar year 2008, each of the manufactured
housing sectors remaining inventory finance lenders initiated radical changes, including one
companys announcement to cease their lending activities entirely. The participation of others is
subject to more restrictive terms that continue to evolve. In connection with certain of these
programs, the Company provides a significant portion of the funds that third-party financiers then
lend to finance retail inventories of our products. In certain of these programs, the Company also
assumes the risk of loss and therefore recorded an applicable loss reserve. While some
manufacturers are unable or have elected not to participate in such inventory finance programs, the
Companys financial capabilities have enabled such sources of manufactured home inventory finance
to be available to retailers for Cavco and Fleetwood Homes products. We believe that our
involvement in the wholesale financing of inventory purchases of Cavco and Fleetwood Homes product
is quite helpful to retailers and allows our products to have continued exposure to potential
homebuyers. This initiative coincides with ongoing efforts to expand our distribution base in all
of our markets with existing and new retailers.
Consumer financing for the retail purchase of manufactured homes needs to become more
available before marked emergence from current lows can occur. Restrictive underwriting
guidelines, irregular appraisal processes, evolving regulatory processes, reductions in the number
of and commitment by market lenders, and limited secondary market availability for manufactured
home loans have combined as significant restraints to recovery in the industry. We are working
alongside industry peers to encourage favorable legislative action on
behalf of the mortgage financing needs of potential buyers of affordable homes in a number of
ways, including our support of industry associations and their efforts in this regard. While some
progress has been made in this area, such as increased loan limits for government backed home-only
loans, a meaningful positive impact in the form of increased home orders at our factories has yet
to be realized.
13
Meanwhile, we have intensified our efforts to identify niche market opportunities where our
diverse product lines and custom building capabilities provide our company with a competitive
advantage. Green construction processes and environmentally-friendly building materials have long
been a part of our home-building process and their popularity is expected to grow. From bamboo
flooring and tank-less water heaters to solar-powered homes, our products are diverse and tailored
to a wide range of consumer interests. Innovation in housing design is a forte of the Company and
we continue to introduce new models at competitive price points with expressive interiors and
exteriors that complement home styles in the areas in which they are located.
Although times are difficult, we remain optimistic about our long-term prospects. We believe
that we are located in attractive geographic markets, we have a diverse line of products and we
maintain a conservative cost structure, which enables us to build great value into our homes. The
Company has worked diligently throughout the past few years to maintain a strong financial
position. Our debt-free balance sheet and solid position in cash and cash equivalents should help
us to avoid the liquidity problems faced by many other companies and enable us to act effectively
as market opportunities present themselves.
In January 2008, we announced a stock repurchase program. A total of $10 million may be used
to repurchase our outstanding common stock. The repurchases may be made in the open market or in
privately negotiated transactions in compliance with applicable state and federal securities laws
and other legal requirements. The level of repurchase activity is subject to market conditions and
other investment opportunities. The plan does not obligate us to acquire any particular amount of
common stock and may be suspended or discontinued at any time. The repurchase program will be
funded using our available cash. No repurchases have been made under this program to date.
Regulatory Developments
The American Housing Rescue and Foreclosure Prevention Act was enacted in 2008 to provide
assistance by way of legislation for the housing industry, including the manufactured housing
industry. Among other things, the Act provides for increased loan limits for chattel (home-only)
loans to $69,678, up 43% from the previous limit of $48,600 set in 1992. All changes were
implemented effective June 1, 2009. Chattel loans have languished in recent years and the increased
loan limit is meant to broaden opportunities for prospective homeowners.
The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 included an $8,000 tax credit for a limited
period to homebuyers who have not owned a home in the previous 3 years, subject to other
conditions. The Worker, Homeownership, and Business Assistance Act of 2009 extended and expanded
the first-time homebuyer credit, authorized a $6,500 credit for long-time homeowners buying a new
principal residence and raised the income limitations for homeowners claiming the credit. In
addition to federal programs, certain states have provided incentives to promote the purchase of
new homes. These and other regulatory changes may provide some stimulus going forward; however,
given consumer concern about the state of the economy, we are cautious in developing expectations
of any positive results from the new legislation.
Results of Operations (Dollars in thousands, except average sales price amounts)
Three and nine months ended December 31, 2009 compared to 2008
Net Sales. Total net sales increased 44.9% to $36,369 for the three months ended December 31,
2009 compared to $25,093 for the comparable quarter last year. The third quarter 2010 results
include the Fleetwood Homes operations which, as previously reported, were acquired during the
second quarter of the current fiscal year. For the nine months ended December 31, 2009, net sales
decreased 12.5% to $79,341 compared to $90,632 for the same period last year.
Net Loss. Net loss attributable to Cavco Stockholders for the three and nine months ended
December 31, 2009 was $1,030 and $2,642, respectively, compared to net income of $110 and $1,481
for the comparable
quarter and nine-month period last year, respectively.
14
Gross Profit. Gross profit as a percent of sales decreased to 9.0% for the three months ended
December 31, 2009 from 10.6% for the same period last year and decreased to 9.5% for the nine
months ended December 31, 2009 from 11.6% last year. The gross profit was negatively affected by
lower margins typically associated with lower average selling prices. The average sales price per
floor of $22,571 for the three months ended December 31, 2009 was 14.9% lower than the $26,535
average sales price per floor last year. For the nine months ended December 31, 2009, the average
sales price per floor decreased 10.3% to $23,483 compared to $26,170 last year. The downward
movement in the average wholesale selling price is primarily from currently depressed market
conditions. The gross profit was also adversely affected by reduced production efficiencies
inherent with low capacity utilization.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses
increased 73.3% or $2,095, to $4,954, or 13.6% of net sales, for the three months ended December
31, 2009 versus $2,859, or 11.4% of net sales, for the same period last year. For the nine month
period ended December 31, 2009, selling, general and administrative expenses increased 31.4% or
$2,859 to $11,964 from $9,105 last year. The increase relates primarily to $750 in non-recurring
acquisition related costs for the purchase of the Fleetwood Homes assets and additional expenses
due to the increased size of the consolidated Company.
Interest Income. Interest income represents income earned on short-term investments and
unrestricted cash and cash equivalents held at various times throughout the period. Our interest
income decreased 65.6% to $52 for the three months ended December 31, 2009 as compared to $151
during the prior year period. For the nine month period ended December 31, 2009, interest income
decreased 85.2% to $108 from $730 last year. The decrease resulted from the effect of lower
interest rates earned on our investments in U.S. Treasury money market funds and short-term bank
certificates of deposit.
Income Taxes. The income tax benefit recognized during the three and nine months ended
December 31, 2009 is the result of current period losses and the Companys belief that it will be
able to fully realize the benefits associated with its deferred tax assets. For the nine month
periods ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, the effective income tax rate was approximately 35% and
32%, respectively.
Discontinued Retail Operations. The Company has plans to dispose of certain of its retail
sales centers and these operations are considered discontinued retail operations (see Note 7).
Liquidity and Capital Resources
We believe that cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments at December 31, 2009,
together with cash flow from operations, will be sufficient to fund our operations and provide for
growth for the next twelve months and into the foreseeable future. Because of the Companys strong
cash position, the Company has not sought, nor does it have access to, external sources of
liquidity, such as a credit facility; however, depending on our operating results and strategic
opportunities, we may need to seek additional or alternative sources of financing. There can be no
assurance that such financing would be available on satisfactory terms, if at all. If this
financing were not available, it could be necessary for us to reevaluate our long-term operating
plans to make more efficient use of our existing capital resources. The exact nature of any changes
to our plans that would be considered depends on various factors, such as conditions in the
factory-built housing industry and general economic conditions outside of our control.
Projected cash to be provided by or used in operations in the coming year is largely dependent
on sales volume. Operating activities required the use of $6,647 of cash during the nine months
ended December 31, 2009 as compared to providing $374 during the same period last year. Cash used
in operating activities for the current period primarily funded operating losses before non-cash
charges, inventory finance initiatives and an increase in prepaid expenses and other current
assets, offset in part by a decrease in trade receivables and inventories and an increase in
accounts payable and accrued liabilities. Cash generated by operating activities during the nine
months ended December 31, 2008 was mainly the result of operating income before non-cash charges
and lower trade receivables, offset in part by an increase in the Companys prepaid expenses and
other current assets and a decrease in trade payables, customer deposits and accrued salaries,
wages and benefits.
15
Investing activities required the use of $21,996 of cash during the nine months ended December
31, 2009 compared to the use of $889 of cash during the same period last year. Cash used by
investing activities in the current period comprised primarily of $25,799 for the acquisition of
the Fleetwood Homes assets, offset in part by net proceeds of $3,968 from sales of short-term
investments in bank certificates of deposit. During the nine months ended December 31, 2008, cash
was used in investing activities mainly for the purchase of our previously leased retail lot
located in Albuquerque, New Mexico, as well as normal recurring capital expenditures in all of our
factories.
Financing activities provided $35,327 and $1,046 in cash during the nine months ended December
31, 2009 and 2008, respectively, resulting from proceeds in the current fiscal period from the
issuance of Fleetwood Homes, Inc. stock to Third Avenue Value Fund for $35,000 with the remaining
cash generated by financing activities in the current and prior year period associated with the
issuance of common stock and related incremental tax benefits upon exercise of stock options under
our stock incentive plans.
Critical Accounting Policies
In Part II, Item 7 of our Form 10-K, under the heading Critical Accounting Policies, we have
provided a discussion of the critical accounting policies that management believes affect its more
significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our Consolidated Financial
Statements.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In September 2006, the FASB issued a pronouncement, now included in FASB ASC Topic 820, Fair
Value Measurements and Disclosures, which defines the term fair value, establishes a framework
for measuring fair value and enhances related disclosures. This guidance was effective for
financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. In February 2008,
the FASB issued another pronouncement that delayed the effective date of the guidance to fiscal
years beginning after November 15, 2008 for the majority of non-financial assets and non-financial
liabilities. Therefore, effective April 1, 2008, the Company adopted the guidance for financial
assets and liabilities and, effective April 1, 2009, the Company adopted the guidance for
non-financial assets and non-financial liabilities, which had no effect on our consolidated
financial position, results of operations or cash flows. As of December 31, 2009, the Company had
no assets or liabilities required to be measured at fair value pursuant to FASB ASC 820.
In December 2007, the FASB issued its pronouncements regarding business combinations and
noncontrolling interest in consolidated financial statements, currently contained in FASB ASC Topic
805, Business Combinations, and FASB ASC Topic 810, Consolidation, respectively, which
significantly changed the financial accounting and reporting of business combination transactions
and noncontrolling interests in consolidated financial statements. The pronouncements were
effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008. Therefore, effective April 1, 2009,
the Company adopted the new business combination and consolidation guidance, which affected the
accounting for the Fleetwood Homes transaction that closed on August 17, 2009. As a result of the
new business combinations pronouncement, $750 in acquisition-related transaction costs were
required to be expensed as incurred in fiscal year 2010 rather than capitalized as part of the
purchase price. Also, the differing treatment of these transaction-related costs for tax purposes
affected the deferred income taxes recorded as of the Acquisition Date. In addition, the new
noncontrolling interest guidance resulted in classifying Third Avenues financial interest in
Fleetwood Homes as a noncontrolling interest in the equity section of the Balance Sheet rather
than being presented as a mezzanine item between liabilities and equity.
In May 2009, the FASB issued its pronouncement regarding subsequent events intended to
establish general standards of accounting for and disclosures of events that occur after the
balance sheet date but before financial statements are issued or are available to be issued. The
pronouncement, now included in FASB ASC Topic 855, Subsequent Events, requires disclosure of the
date through which an entity has evaluated subsequent events and the basis for that date, and is
effective for interim and annual periods ending after June 15, 2009. The Company has evaluated
subsequent events after the balance sheet date of December 31, 2009 through the date of issuance,
February 9, 2010, and there were no disclosable subsequent events as of February 9, 2010.
16
In June 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board approved the FASB Accounting Standards
Codification (the Codification or ASC) as the source of authoritative U.S. generally accepted
accounting principles recognized by the FASB to be applied by nongovernmental entities. Rules and
interpretive releases issued by the SEC are also sources of authoritative GAAP for SEC registrants.
The Codification supersedes all existing non-SEC accounting and reporting standards. All other
non-grandfathered non-SEC accounting literature not included in the Codification has become
non-authoritative. The Codification does not change GAAP, but instead introduces a new structure
that combines existing authoritative standards into a comprehensive, topically organized online
database. The Codification became effective for financial statements issued for interim and annual
periods ending after September 15, 2009. The implementation of the Codification did not impact our
financial statements or disclosures other than references to authoritative accounting literature
are now made in accordance with the Codification.
From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by the FASB or the SEC that are
adopted by the Company as of the specified effective dates. Unless otherwise discussed, management
believes that the impact of recently issued standards, which are not yet effective, will not have a
material impact on the Companys consolidated financial statements upon adoption.
Forward-looking Statements
Forward-looking statements involve risks, uncertainties and other factors, which may cause our
actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from those expressed or
implied by such forward-looking statements. In addition to the Risk Factors described in Part I,
Item 1A. Risk Factors in our Form 10-K, factors that could affect our results and cause them to
materially differ from those contained in the forward-looking statements include, but are not
limited to:
|
|
|
We operate in an industry that is currently experiencing a prolonged and significant downturn; |
|
|
|
|
Tightened credit standards and curtailed lending activity by retail lenders have contributed to a
constrained consumer financing market, which may continue or could intensify; |
|
|
|
|
The availability of wholesale financing for industry retailers is limited due to a reduced number of
floor plan lenders and reduced lending limits; |
|
|
|
|
Our operating results could be affected by geographic concentration and declining housing demand; |
|
|
|
|
We have incurred net losses in current and certain prior periods and there can be no assurance that we
will generate income in the future; |
|
|
|
|
A write-off of all or part of our goodwill could adversely affect our operating results and net worth; |
|
|
|
|
The cyclical and seasonal nature of the manufactured housing industry causes our revenues and operating
results to fluctuate, and we expect this cyclicality and seasonality to continue in the future; |
|
|
|
|
Our liquidity and ability to raise capital may be limited; |
|
|
|
|
We have contingent repurchase obligations related to wholesale financing provided to industry retailers; |
|
|
|
|
The manufactured housing industry is highly competitive, and competition may increase the adverse
effects of industry conditions; |
|
|
|
|
If we are unable to establish or maintain relationships with independent retailers who sell our homes,
our sales could decline; |
|
|
|
|
Our results of operations can be adversely affected by labor shortages and the pricing and availability
of raw materials; |
|
|
|
|
If the manufactured housing industry is not able to secure favorable local zoning ordinances, our sales
could decline and our business could be adversely affected; |
17
|
|
|
The loss of any of our executive officers could reduce our ability to execute our business strategy and
could have a material adverse effect on our business and results of operations; |
|
|
|
|
Certain provisions of our organizational documents could delay or make more difficult a change in
control of our Company; |
|
|
|
|
Volatility of stock price; |
|
|
|
|
Deterioration in economic conditions in general and continued turmoil in the credit markets could
reduce our earnings and financial condition; |
|
|
|
|
We may not be able to successfully integrate Fleetwood Homes and any future acquisition or attain the
anticipated benefits and Fleetwood Homes and other future acquisitions may adversely impact the Companys
liquidity; and |
|
|
|
|
Our participation in certain wholesale financing programs for the purchase of our products by industry
retailers may expose us to additional risk of credit loss, which could adversely impact the Companys
liquidity and results of operations. |
We may make additional written or oral forward-looking statements from time to time in filings
with the SEC or in public news releases or statements. Such additional statements may include, but
are not limited to, projections of revenues, income or loss, capital expenditures, acquisitions,
plans for future operations, financing needs or plans, the impact of inflation and plans relating
to our products or services, as well as assumptions relating to the foregoing.
Statements in this Report on Form 10-Q, including those set forth in this section, may be
considered forward looking statements within the meaning of Section 21E of the Securities Act of
1934. These forward-looking statements are often identified by words such as estimate,
predict, hope, may, believe, anticipate, plan, expect, require, intend, assume,
and similar words.
Forward-looking statements contained in this Report on Form 10-Q speak only as of the date of
this report or, in the case of any document incorporated by reference, the date of that document.
We do not intend to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statement contained in this
Report on Form 10-Q or in any document incorporated herein by reference to reflect changed
assumptions, the occurrence of unanticipated events or changes to future operating results over
time.
|
|
|
Item 3. |
|
Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk |
Market risk is the risk of loss arising from adverse changes in market prices and interest
rates. We may from time to time be exposed to interest rate risk inherent in our financial
instruments, but are not currently subject to foreign currency or commodity price risk. We manage
our exposure to these market risks through our regular operating and financing activities. We are
not currently a party to any market risk sensitive instruments that could be reasonably expected to
have a material effect on our financial condition or results of operations.
Our operations are interest rate sensitive. As overall manufactured housing demand can be
adversely affected by increases in interest rates, a significant increase in wholesale or mortgage
interest rates may negatively affect the ability of retailers and home buyers to secure financing.
Higher interest rates could unfavorably impact our revenues, gross margins and net earnings. Our
business is also sensitive to the effects of inflation, particularly with respect to raw material
and transportation costs. We may not be able to offset inflation through increased selling prices.

Controls and Procedures |
(a) Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our
management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness
of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in the Securities Exchange Act of 1934
(Exchange Act) Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)). Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive
Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of the end of the period covered in this
report, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.
(b) Changes In Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There have been no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting (as defined in
Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) that occurred during the fiscal quarter ended December
31, 2009, which have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our
internal control over financial reporting.
PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
|
|
|
Item 1. |
|
Legal Proceedings |
Information regarding reportable legal proceedings is contained in Part I, Item 3, Legal
Proceedings, in our Form 10-K. The following describes legal proceedings, if any, that became
reportable during the quarter ended December 31, 2009, and, if applicable, amends and restates
descriptions of previously reported legal proceedings in which there have been material
developments during such quarter.
We are party to certain legal proceedings that arise in the ordinary course and are incidental
to our business. Certain of the claims pending against us in these proceedings allege, among other
things, breach of contract and warranty, product liability and personal injury. Although litigation
is inherently uncertain, based on past experience and the information currently available,
management does not believe that the currently pending and threatened litigation or claims will
have a material adverse effect on the Companys consolidated financial position, liquidity or
results of operations. However, future events or circumstances currently unknown to management will
determine whether the resolution of pending or threatened litigation or claims will ultimately have
a material effect on our consolidated financial position, liquidity or results of operations in any
future reporting periods.
In addition to the other information set forth in this Report, you should carefully consider
the factors discussed in Part I, Item 1A, Risk Factors, in our Form 10-K, which could materially
affect our business, financial condition or future results. The risks described in this Report and
in our Form 10-K are not the only risks facing our Company. Additional risks and uncertainties not
currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may materially adversely
affect our business, financial condition and/or operating results.
The risk factors included in our Form 10-K and our Form 10-Q for the quarterly periods ended
September 30, 2009 and June 30, 2009 have not materially changed other than as follows:
|
(1) |
|
With respect to an additional risk factor related to the acquisition of Fleetwood Homes
and any potential acquisitions. |
19
We may not be able to successfully integrate Fleetwood Homes and any future acquisition or attain
the anticipated benefits and the acquisition of Fleetwood Homes and other future acquisitions may
adversely impact the Companys liquidity.
We recently completed the acquisition of certain manufactured housing assets and liabilities
of Fleetwood Homes. We may also consider other strategic acquisitions if such opportunities arise. Any
transactions that we consider may involve a number of risks including the diversion of our
managements attention from our existing business for those transactions that we complete, or
possible adverse effects on our operating results during the integration process and on our
liquidity. In addition, we may not be able to successfully or profitably integrate, operate,
maintain and manage the newly acquired operations or employees of Fleetwood Homes or potential
future acquisitions. We may not be able to maintain uniform standards, controls, procedures and
policies, which may lead to operational inefficiencies.
|
(2) |
|
With respect to an additional risk factor related to inventory finance programs and
associated notes receivable and credit loss reserve. |
Our participation in certain wholesale financing programs for the purchase of our products by
industry retailers may expose us to additional risk of credit loss, which could adversely impact
the Companys liquidity and results of operations.
We are exposed to risks associated with the creditworthiness of certain customers and business
partners, including independent retailers and inventory financing partners, many of whom may be
adversely affected by the volatile conditions in the financial markets. These conditions could
result in financial instability or other adverse effects at any of our customers or business
partners. The consequences of such adverse effects could include delinquencies by retailers who
purchase our product under special inventory financing initiatives and deterioration of collateral
values. In addition, we may incur losses if our collateral cannot be recovered or liquidated at
prices sufficient to recover recorded notes receivable balances. The realization of any of these
factors may adversely affect our cash flow, profitability and financial condition.
All other items required under Part II are omitted because they are not applicable.
