On November 4, 2021, Cavco Industries filed certain documents with the Securities and Exchanges Commission (SEC) that related to their various motions to dismiss. These, per the SEC site, are scheduled for a hearing on 1.6.2022. Per the transcript shown below from the popular <em>Motley Fool<\/em> financial website, <strong>Daniel Moore<\/strong>, an analyst for CJS Securities, asked \u201c<strong><span style=\"color: #800000;\">earlier this week you filed a motion to dismiss the SECs most recent action. Any comments there or thoughts around timing of when this might be kind of fully &#8212; finally put to rest<\/span>?<\/strong>\u201d In some ways that is a $64 million (plus or minus) dollar question for Cavco. William C. \u201cBill\u201d Boor, President and CEO, said in part: \u201c<span style=\"color: #800000;\"><strong>But what we filed earlier this week was really a very legally focused motion to dismiss. And what I mean by that is, we&#8217;re not in litigation where we&#8217;re arguing what the SEC proposed in their complaint as far as the facts of what happened, but we believe that there are some legal issues with their complaint<\/strong><\/span>.\u201d Put differently, Boor has admitted to that the motions are of a <em>technical<\/em> nature and that these are not related to the<em> substance of the facts<\/em> that the SEC is charging Cavco and two of their now former officials with.<\/p><div id=\"manuf-3127334911\" class=\"manuf-content manuf-entity-placement\"><script async src=\"\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-3870480136270376\" crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script><ins class=\"adsbygoogle\" style=\"display:block;\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-3870480136270376\" \ndata-ad-slot=\"\" \ndata-ad-format=\"auto\"><\/ins>\n<script> \n(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); \n<\/script>\n<\/div>\n<p>Is this what Cavco meant by a vigorous defense?

One might presume that once their corporate legal motions are heard in their case with the SEC, and presuming that those motions fail, a new phase of negotiation to settle the SEC claims will begin in earnest. In the meantime, the motions have bought Cavco some more time before financial and\/or other \u2018pain\u2019 sets in.<\/p>\n<p>With that in mind, the following email to Mark Fusler and an outside communications consultant that has been used by Cavco, John Lovallo, should be of interest to those tracking not only the brand, their stock, and the related insights as it pertains to more broadly to manufactured housing industry underperformance during an affordable housing crisis.

Bill?<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>William C. Boor<\/strong> \u2013 <em>President and Chief Executive Officer<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Thank you, Mark. Welcome and thank you for joining us today to review our results for the second quarter of fiscal year 2022.<\/p>\n<p>We\u2019re very happy to report another record quarter for revenue and earnings. Revenue increased 39% year-over-year and diluted EPS was up nearly 150%. <span style=\"background-color: yellow;\">We also achieved a record housing gross margin of 24.1%<\/span>. This was partly due to average selling price continuing its upward trajectory with a 13% sequential increase, and partly due to the temporary low we saw in lumber and OSB pricing that flowed through our cost of goods sales \u2013 goods sold during the quarter.<\/p>\n<p>Demand for our products remained strong and our backlogs continue to grow. <span style=\"background-color: yellow;\">Excluding Commodore, backlogs were $828 million and the acquisition added another $279 million, putting the total at $1.1 billion<\/span>. <span style=\"background-color: aqua;\">This represents about 40 to 42 weeks of production<\/span>.<span style=\"background-color: yellow;\"> New home supply has lagged for many years leading to a large housing deficit, particularly for lower cost homes<\/span>.<\/p>\n<p>Demographics and low interest rates continue to underpin the strong demand we are experiencing. <span style=\"background-color: yellow;\">And as the cost for supply and labor inputs increase, the efficiency advantages of factory-built housing relative to site-built are increasing as well. This all results in a very positive and growing opportunity for our industry<\/span>. By any measure, we\u2019re seeing continued strong demand and can sell every house we can make.<\/p>\n<p>Regarding production, it won\u2019t surprise anyone on the call that <span style=\"background-color: yellow;\">supply issues have not let up and they are affecting nearly every material we use to build homes<\/span>. Not much I can add to the information we\u2019re all hearing about availability of imports, as well as domestically produced supplies. We have no ability to predict how long, but expect the situation will persist for some time. Our teams continue to do a great job managing through it and working to minimize the significant impact this has had on production.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"background-color: yellow;\">Labor difficulties also continue to negatively impact production.<\/span> However, because of the holistic approach we\u2019ve been taking to address the root causes with fundamental and lasting solutions, we\u2019re beginning to see signs of improvement in staffing and retention.<span style=\"background-color: yellow;\"> We\u2019ve implemented increased wages and benefits, but equally as important, we are investing in recruiting, onboarding and training processes.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"background-color: yellow;\">The labor issues faced by nearly all manufacturers are complex and we\u2019re building systems and approaches that we believe will provide advantages long-term<\/span>. That kind of fundamental systemic work is how we\u2019re building our team skills.<\/p>\n<p>In addition to this intense focus on labor solutions, our plant teams are continuing to simplify product offerings in order to increase volume for our customers. <span style=\"background-color: yellow;\">Strategically, we\u2019ve pushed forward by taking action across the spectrum of our investment priorities. Our recent investment in Fort Worth is a great example of improving process flow to enable increased production<\/span>. That investment is well on its way to <span style=\"background-color: aqua;\">improving throughput by approximately 20%. We\u2019re working to identify and pursue any opportunities to make similar investments across our network of plants<\/span>.<\/p>\n<p>With regard to our<span style=\"background-color: yellow;\"> previously announced Glendale project, we have incurred permitting delays that have moved our start-up production to the second quarter of calendar year 2022<\/span>. The good news is that we\u2019ve now received the necessary permits and are executing on the build-out. This project will both, nearly double our park model production in Arizona, and free up a production line for incremental HUD capacity at our Goodyear plant.<\/p>\n<p>On the acquisition front, we closed on the Commodore transaction during the quarter, a little ahead of the planned third quarter timeline. After just a month and a half since the closing, integration is going well and we could not be happier about joining forces with the people at Commodore. Beyond the geographic expansion and 25% increase in capacity this deal brings, I remain as excited as ever about the manufacturing technologies and the best practices we\u2019ll be applying across the combined company.<\/p>\n<p>The challenges that have limited production have hidden the fact that our plants are improving their efficiencies. For example, our hours per floor produced have improved this year as our plants\u00a0demonstrate their ability to drive through this period of under-staffing and intermittent high absenteeism.<\/p>\n<p>As we <span style=\"background-color: yellow;\">solve these issues and our suppliers become more reliable, we\u2019re poised to see a new level of plant throughput<\/span>. So strategically we\u2019ve not paused and we\u2019re looking forward to playing an increasing role in addressing the affordable housing issues that are facing prospective homebuyers.<\/p>\n<p>Today, we have our new CFO, Allison Aden, with us on the call. She has been here for just a couple of months now and we\u2019re very happy to have her on board. With that, I\u2019ll turn it over to Alison to discuss the quarterly results in more detail.<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Allison K. Aden<\/strong> \u2013 <em>Executive Vice President, Chief Financial Officer &amp; Treasurer<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Thank you, Bill. We\u2019re pleased to report that Cavco achieved record breaking net revenue results for the second fiscal quarter of 2022. Net revenues for the period were $359.5 million, 39.4% higher than the $258 million posted for the same quarter last year, and up 8.8% sequentially over the first quarter of fiscal 2022.<\/p>\n<p>Within the factory-built housing segment, net revenue increased 42% to $342 million compared to $241 million in the prior year quarter. This increase was primarily due to a 35.3% uplift in average revenue per home sold, driven by product pricing increases to pass through rising material costs,<span style=\"background-color: yellow;\"> as well as product mix shift to more multi-section homes<\/span>. In Q2 of fiscal 2022, units sold also increased 5% from the same period a year ago. Included in the Q2 revenue results was one week of activity for Commodore Homes of $4.4 million.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"background-color: aqua;\">Increases in home production levels continue to be somewhat muted as we face hiring challenges, unpredictable factory employee absenteeism and supply chain disruption<\/span>. <span style=\"background-color: yellow;\">Factory utilization for Q2 2022 was consistent with the Q1 2022 utilization rate of 75%, but was higher than the Q2 2021 utilization rate of 70%<\/span>.<\/p>\n<p>Financial services segment net revenue increased 2.6% to $17.5 million from $17 million, primarily due to higher home loan sales volume, servicing income and insurance policies in force compared to the prior year. In addition to year-over-year increases in revenue for the quarter, we also expanded our profit margin percentage. Q2 2022 consolidated gross profit as a percentage of net revenue was 25%, up from 20.8% in the same period last year, a 420 basis point improvement. The increase is mainly the result of the factory-built housing segment increasing to 24.1% in Q2 2022 versus 19.2% in Q2 2021.<\/p>\n<p>Most factories have been implementing product price increases at a rate greater than input cost increase resulting in higher total gross margin dollars per home, while also expanding the gross margin percentage. Although lumber and other lumber-related product market prices have declined, those benefits now being realized in cost of sales, these decreases have been mostly offset by other product price increases on many other input costs.<\/p>\n<p>The gross margin from Commodore was not accretive in the period as inventory was written up to the fair value through the application of purchase accounting as required by GAAP resulting in no margin on the associated sales. We expect the remaining inventory at fair value to sell through toward the later half of the third quarter.<\/p>\n<p>Gross margin as a percentage of revenue in financial services increased to 43.7% in Q2 2022 from 43.4% in Q2 2021 and fewer weather-related events in the current period, partially offset by unrealized losses on marketable equity securities compared to unrealized gain in the prior year period.<\/p>\n<p>Selling, general and administrative expenses in the second quarter of fiscal 2022 were $45.4 million or 12.6% of net revenue, compared to $35.5 million or 13.7% of net revenue during the same quarter last year. The increase is due to Commodore acquisition deal costs plus higher incentive and commission wages on higher earnings and were partially offset by the additional D&amp;O insurance premium amortization of $2.1 million in the prior year quarter.<\/p>\n<p>Other income this quarter was $4.7 million compared to $1.7 million in the prior year period. This increase was primarily driven by a one-time $3.3 million gain on the consolidation of a non-marketable equity investment that was increased from a 50% ownership level up to a 70% ownership level. Pre-tax profit was up 150.2% this quarter and $49 million from $19.6 million from the prior year. The effective income tax rate was 23.1% for the second fiscal quarter compared to 23.2% in the same period last year.<\/p>\n<p>New this quarter is a line item for net income that is attributable to the remaining 30% non-controlling interest in a non-marketable equity investment that we do not own. After deducting from that component, net income attributable to Cavco shareholders was up 150% to $37.6 million compared to net income of $15 million in the same quarter of the prior year. Net income per diluted share this quarter was $4.06 versus $1.62 in last year\u2019s second quarter.<\/p>\n<p>Now, I\u2019ll turn it over to Paul to discuss the balance sheet.<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Paul Bigbee<\/strong> \u2013 <em>Chief Accounting Officer<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Thanks, Allison. So comparing the October 2, 2021 balance sheet to April 3, 2021, the cash balance was $224.3 million, down $98 million from $322.3 million six months earlier. The decrease is primarily due to the acquisition of Commodore Homes, repurchases of common stock and higher inventory purchases. These uses of cash were partially offset by net income, excluding the impact of non-cash items, changes in working capital, primarily related to higher accrued expenses and other current liability balances, and the sale of consumer loans greater than the loan originations.<\/p>\n<p>And then, in general, across the board, we had increases in accounts receivable, commercial loans receivable, inventories, property, plant and equipment, goodwill and intangibles, accounts payable and accrued liabilities due to the acquisitions during the period. Consumer loans receivable decrease related to principal collections on loans held for investment that were previously securitized. Pre-paid and other assets were lower as the other assets recorded for delinquent loans sold to Ginnie Mae have decreased due to lower forbearance rates. While we are not obligated to repurchase these loans, accounting guidelines requires us to record an asset and liability for the potential of a repurchase at reporting period.<\/p>\n<p>Accrued expenses and other current liability balances increased in addition to acquisition balances as a result of higher wage accruals from the deferral of payroll tax payments under the CARES Act and higher volume rebate accruals and customer deposits received as a result of the greater order rates. Redeemable and non-controlling interest is a new line item that represents the value of the non-controlling shareholders interest due to the consolidation of a non-marketable equity investment previously discussed. Lastly, stockholders\u2019 equity was approximately $733.1 million as of October 2, up $49.5 million from $683.6 million as of April 3, 2021.<\/p>\n<p>And with that, Bill, this completes the financial report.<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>William C.

Good morning or good afternoon depending on where you are and thanks for taking the questions. Let me start with gross margin. Obviously, very strong in the quarter even given the raw material and other supply chain headwinds. Just talk about sustainability of that level as we look out into Q3 and Q4. Do you expect any pullback or is that 25%-type level sustainable for the next few quarters anyway?<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>William C. Boor<\/strong> \u2013 <em>President and Chief Executive Officer<\/em><\/p>\n<p>I\u2019ll take a quick stab and others here may want to add to what I\u2019ll say.<span style=\"background-color: yellow;\"> We did kind of catch the temporary drop in lumber and OSB during the quarter<\/span>. So, while prices increased and I think with long backlogs, there\u2019s every reason to expect that prices will hold. The cost of goods sold had a temporary dip in lumber and OSB, so we\u2019re already seeing that come up. So the cost side is really the wildcard that we can\u2019t predict very well. Maybe it will turn again in our favor. But that\u2019s the thing that I think you really have to look at in the coming quarters and if you\u2019re going to try to predict what the gross margins will be. Anything \u2013 you guys have anything to add to that? It\u2019s a little bit hard to predict, though. And I think we\u2019ve explained in the past how the costs have about a 30- to 60-day lag in hitting our cost of goods sold. So if you follow those key commodity inputs, you can kind of get a sense for where their impact will lay in the P&amp;L.<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Paul Bigbee<\/strong> \u2013 <em>Chief Accounting Officer<\/em><\/p>\n<p>[Speech Overlap] were in our P&amp;L in the first two \u2013 in really August and September fully.<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Daniel Moore<\/strong> \u2013 <em>CJS Securities \u2013 Analyst<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Helpful.

I think we are getting \u2013 showing a little bit of progress on stabilizing and growing our workforce. <span style=\"background-color: yellow;\">We\u2019ve been understaffed for quite a while, but you hit on the key, which is supplies are the question mark and we don\u2019t really \u2013 don\u2019t think we\u2019re any different from anyone else and saying we don\u2019t see that just suddenly clearing up<\/span>. So <span style=\"background-color: aqua;\">that\u2019s really a governor on how high we\u2019ll be able to go with production<\/span>. Seasonality, I think with the backlogs we\u2019re seeing \u2013 we have at the moment, it shouldn\u2019t be a big impact to what we produce.<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Daniel Moore<\/strong> \u2013 <em>CJS Securities \u2013 Analyst<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Even in the Northeast, Midwest, those locales, you\u2019ll still kind of produce straight through if you have enough raw materials?<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>William C. Boor<\/strong> \u2013 <em>President and Chief Executive Officer<\/em><\/p>\n<p>I think generally. I mean, we\u2019ll see some impact, but in the scheme of our total company production, it shouldn\u2019t be a huge factor.<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Daniel Moore<\/strong> \u2013 <em>CJS Securities \u2013 Analyst<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Perfect, And then I really appreciate the comments regarding improvements in throughput, hours per floor. And I know this question is a little theoretical, but <span style=\"background-color: yellow;\">if supply chain were not an issue<\/span>, <span style=\"background-color: aqua;\">how many more homes, either in numbers or percentages, do you think you could produce across the portfolio, including Commodore?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>William C. Boor<\/strong> \u2013 <em>President and Chief Executive Officer<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Yeah, we feel really good about what the plants have demonstrated during a number of quarters now where they\u2019ve really been short-handed, both general staffing, number of folks on the payroll, as well as absenteeism, which is hard to predict. And we made a comment last quarter, I\u2019ll kind of reinforce that we\u2019re looking back in a lot of our internal comparisons to two years ago, because it was pre-COVID and more of a stable grounding point for some analysis. <span style=\"background-color: yellow;\">And this quarter, we made a few more floors in the quarter, production-wise, than we did in the similar quarter two years ago and we did that with over 10% less production hours<\/span>. So that \u2013 it gives us some optimism as we continue to get on top of labor that we should be able to really kind of blow past pre-COVID levels of production. I\u2019m not giving you the number you\u2019d like to have because I don\u2019t know if I\u2019ll predict it, but we\u2019re looking to try to hold those efficiency gains as we staff up and we should be able to get \u2013 we are existing on a plant by plant basis, same plant basis, we should be able to exceed where we were before COVID. And you\u2019ll remember too that even if you go back to 2019, we were in a pretty strong demand market, so we were generally making everything we could make.<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Daniel Moore<\/strong> \u2013 <em>CJS Securities \u2013 Analyst<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Understood. I appreciate that. And then given the initiatives, some of the expansions, etc., do you have a target of how fast you can grow capacity, again excluding supply chain challenges?

Thanks again.<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>William C. Boor<\/strong> \u2013 <em>President and Chief Executive Officer<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Yes. Now, I appreciate the question. I apologize that we don\u2019t really have a target because of the supply. I mean, we\u2019re so focused on kind of optimizing what we\u2019re doing from a \u2013 well, managing the supply constraint and at the same time getting everything we can control internally focused on being ready to make as much as possible as supply limitations ease up. But with that, I got to just be honest with you and say it\u2019s inside the company with that supply dynamic, it\u2019s very hard for us to say hypothetically what\u2019s our target over the next several quarters for production. It\u2019s just a real challenge every day. So it\u2019s just kind of a peek inside our mindset right now, but we do think we\u2019re doing all the things that are positioning us to not miss a beat.

Just kind of curious if you could walk us through <span style=\"background-color: aqua;\">what you\u2019re seeing by channel<\/span>. And do you think that you\u2019re starting to see some more material, I guess, share gains versus site-built, whether that\u2019s would-be consumers that are now sort of culminated into your space versus traditional home?<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>William C. Boor<\/strong> \u2013 <em>President and Chief Executive Officer<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Yeah. Demand channel by channel, I couldn\u2019t even differentiate it because it\u2019s strong across the board. We can\u2019t make enough.<span style=\"background-color: aqua;\"> Frankly, we can\u2019t keep many of our customers happy right now, they\u2019d all like to add more homes<\/span>. So they\u2019re are all very strong. And then the second \u2013 regarding [Phonetic] the second part of your question?<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Greg Palm<\/strong> \u2013 <em>Craig-Hallum Capital \u2013 Analyst<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Yeah, I just \u2013 I\u2019m just kind of curious<span style=\"background-color: aqua;\"> if you\u2019re seeing more share gains from the site-built<\/span>.<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>William C. Boor<\/strong> \u2013 <em>President and Chief Executive Officer<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Yeah, I think you can look at \u2013 I mean you can look at how the manufactured housing industry shipments have compared to new home sales and they kind of bottomed out, and I think I\u2019m right about this, they kind of bottomed out during the pandemic at around 10%. And now we\u2019re up kind of in the mid-teens and probably that\u2019s a statement that \u2013 of the challenges that the site builders are having. So we\u2019ve seen and over quarter-to-quarter the share increased pretty dramatically and that\u2019s due to a lot of things. We do believe that there is that interface, we talked about a lot, between what manufactured housing does as far as price points and what site-builders do. This point I tried to make in my prepared remarks about, as supply \u2013 as input costs, including labor, go up, it\u2019s a challenge for us, but we\u2019re more efficient with those inputs and so they\u2019re moving farther and farther away from being able to supply kind of the upper end of what we traditionally do. <span style=\"background-color: aqua;\">So I really do think that we\u2019re capturing some of that space that they just can\u2019t hit at this point and people are buying manufactured housing more and more. So I think we\u2019re taking some share in that regard<\/span>.<\/p>\n<p>The flip side is, if you flip over to the the folks that are just trying to get into a house at the lower end of what we do, that\u2019s where the story is kind of tough because with price increases like they\u2019ve been, <span style=\"background-color: aqua;\">a lot of people are getting priced out at that lower end<\/span>. But, yeah, I do think that it\u2019s clearly the manufactured housing and we are taking some share away from site-built right now. And the other thing I always recount [Phonetic], Greg, is that \u2013 and I know this probably doesn\u2019t need to be said, but I always feel I need to say it, <span style=\"background-color: aqua;\">when you look at our industry shipments, it has for a while represented what we can make, not what demand is<\/span>. <span style=\"background-color: yellow;\">So if our industry could make more, we\u2019d be even a higher share of new homes at this point<\/span>.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Greg Palm<\/strong> \u2013 <em>Craig-Hallum Capital \u2013 Analyst<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Yeah, it\u2019s a good point as well. Looking at backlog, if my math is right, so excluding Commodore, <span style=\"background-color: yellow;\">you\u2019re up a little bit sequentially, but a lot less so than your other publicly traded peers<\/span>. So curious if you\u2019re being more selective in terms of order intake based on capacity levels or if there\u2019s anything else to call out there.<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>William C. Boor<\/strong> \u2013 <em>President and Chief Executive Officer<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Yeah, I do think ours has been strong. Kind of a really good question because I know people are trying to think, is there some differentiation across the industry about order pace. What I\u2019ll try to explain here is that our \u2013 during \u2013 backlogs \u2013 the orders we count in backlog compared to our total orders has some judgment in it and we want to manage our backlog to be as conservative as we think is reasonable. Meaning, as we all know, we\u2019re out many months in lead time and so when we get orders that are for really far out, in some cases, <span style=\"background-color: yellow;\">on a plant by plant basis, we\u2019ll make the decision to \u2013 they\u2019re good orders, but we\u2019ll make the decision not to include them in our backlog as we look at it internally and as we reported to you all<\/span>.<\/p>\n<p>And long-winded way of saying that during this quarter, <span style=\"background-color: yellow;\">we actually took a considerable number of orders and said, hey, let\u2019s \u2013 they\u2019re so far out, let\u2019s take them out of our backlog number for now<\/span>. Doesn\u2019t mean they\u2019re not good orders, doesn\u2019t mean we won\u2019t make them, but it\u2019s a bit of conservatism in case the market does change on us. So it\u2019s kind of a little bit apologetically, we report this backlog, and yet there is some \u2013 other than [Phonetic] judgment in it and this quarter, we made a correction that makes it look like it grew a little bit less than if we hadn\u2019t made that correction. So I hope that\u2019s \u2013 hope that explains that a bit and you might have some follow-up questions on that for us.<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Greg Palm<\/strong> \u2013 <em>Craig-Hallum Capital \u2013 Analyst<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Yeah.

Boor<\/strong> \u2013 <em>President and Chief Executive Officer<\/em><\/p>\n<p>I\u2019m looking because I don\u2019t have the number at the top of my head. Yeah, I don\u2019t think we have a quantification for you right now. It was a meaningful amount that we took out and it\u2019s not real helpful but my guess is that, I would say that I think you should \u2013<span style=\"background-color: yellow;\"> my answer would be that our backlogs on a \u2013 if we hadn\u2019t made that correction, were very much in line with the industry<\/span>.<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Greg Palm<\/strong> \u2013 <em>Craig-Hallum Capital \u2013 Analyst<\/em><\/p>\n<p>And do you not view those \u2013 I mean it sounds like those are real orders, but what\u2019s the hesitancy of not putting them in the backlog? I\u2019m just a little bit confused why you won\u2019t include them if you do, in fact, think they\u2019re real orders.<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>William C. Boor<\/strong> \u2013 <em>President and Chief Executive Officer<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Yeah, I understand. Well, they\u2019re real orders, we plan to make them. It\u2019s a assessment we make to make sure that what we\u2019re looking at in the backlog is, I guess, a quality backlog, that it really wouldn\u2019t change if the industry did see a little bit of a pullback.<span style=\"background-color: yellow;\"> So we all know that orders can vanish<\/span>. And we\u2019re not expecting that, we\u2019re not predicting a pullback in the industry.

Aden<\/strong> \u2013 <em>Executive Vice President, Chief Financial Officer &amp; Treasurer<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Yeah, I mean basically, given the timing of the closing date, we had five business days of Commodore operations, which was about $4.4 million in revenue, which we had mentioned. During an acquisition like this, you basically are required to apply purchase accounting and as you know, write up the inventory to the fair value, which negated the \u2013 any profitability in this particular quarter. But we do expect to sell through the inventory that we purchased kind of midway through this quarter to through the third quarter, so we\u2019d start seeing their margins uplift to levels that we had shared with you historically.<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Greg Palm<\/strong> \u2013 <em>Craig-Hallum Capital \u2013 Analyst<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Okay.

So, I got three questions for you. The first one, in the original Commodore announcement, Cavco indicated that Commodore delivered 3,700 homes in the 12 months ended March 31. I guess, did Commodore have the same jump in the backlog post the initial COVID surge like Cavco and Sky did? And if so, what is Commodore\u2019s quarterly run rate on home sales now, assuming that they\u2019re having to work through a larger backlog and production headwinds like legacy Cavco?<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>William C. Boor<\/strong> \u2013 <em>President and Chief Executive Officer<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Yeah. We looked at the quarter increase and it was very consistent with other increases, ours and others. So their backlog growth is very much in line with other numbers you guys are looking at. And from a run rate perspective, they are basically pretty close to where they were pre-COVID. The 3,700 \u2013 they\u2019re a little bit off the 3,700 because of some staffing challenges right now. But they\u2019re very much in line with where they were pre-COVID on their run rate.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Jay McCanless<\/strong> \u2013 <em>Wedbush Securities \u2013 Analyst<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Okay. Do you \u2013 since they are in the Northeast, is there any seasonality we need to think about and how that 3,700 or below 3,700 falls out during the calendar year?<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>William C. Boor<\/strong> \u2013 <em>President and Chief Executive Officer<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Yeah, I think I had mentioned earlier that for ours I think when you spread it over our entire company, it\u2019s not that significant.

And then in terms of the Commodore average price, I think it was roughly $70,000 based on that same release. Is that still the case or have they had a large step-up in price from when the press release came out?<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>William C.

And so they are also getting an average selling price lift from working off that price-protected backlog.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Jay McCanless<\/strong> \u2013 <em>Wedbush Securities \u2013 Analyst<\/em><\/p>\n<p>So where \u2013 are they sitting in $75,000, $80,000 on average now or where are they shaking out?<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>William C.

Aden<\/strong> \u2013 <em>Executive Vice President, Chief Financial Officer &amp; Treasurer<\/em><\/p>\n<p>So as we think about the price and the effect of price increases and the effect of the mix, predominantly the increase in price \u2013 the increase in ASP was due to pricing, with some uplift coming from mix, they\u2019re probably more minor. As we look forward, our factories \u2013 they continue to review pricing. But I think that we were successful in the second quarter of really having all the factories now put in place increases to cover material cost uplift. So I would \u2013 currently, without any large changes to material costs that need to be passed through, we consider those somewhat consistent going into the third quarter but may be some drift upward from any shifts to more multi-section homes.<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Jay McCanless<\/strong> \u2013 <em>Wedbush Securities \u2013 Analyst<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Okay.

Maybe one macro and one micro. <span style=\"background-color: yellow;\">The macro, earlier this week, we heard one of your competitors talk about the duration of land home MH loans materially improving going from the kind of low-20s toward the \u2013 more on par with stick-built in the kind of 30-year range<\/span>, as well as new lenders coming into the MH financing arena. Are those trends consistent with what you\u2019re seeing? And just how significant is that from your perspective?<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>William C. Boor<\/strong> \u2013 <em>President and Chief Executive Officer<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Yeah, absolutely consistent. We read the comments as well and we\u2019d just kind of echo them. <span style=\"background-color: aqua;\">Extending the duration or the term on both land home and chattel lending is a big deal for affordability and it really kind of helps us set the price increases and modest but kind of threaten rate increases. So our \u2013 we\u2019re seeing exactly the same thing. And I think it\u2019s solid lending. We\u2019re still seeing appropriate underwriting standards. I don\u2019t have any concerns in that regard, but these extensions really make a difference for people that generally buy on a monthly basis.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Daniel Moore<\/strong> \u2013 <em>CJS Securities \u2013 Analyst<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Got it. And you\u2019ve talked about this in the past and a little bit earlier, but if you could elaborate on the opportunity to streamline products across facilities to share manufacturing techniques between Cavco and Commodore and I don\u2019t know if there\u2019s an ability to quantify the potential uplift or benefit, but maybe any more detail on that as we look out over the next year or two would be helpful.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>William C. Boor<\/strong> \u2013 <em>President and Chief Executive Officer<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Yeah. <span style=\"background-color: yellow;\">On product simplification, when demand\u2019s like this and when our customers really are more \u2013 they\u2019re more interested in getting the incremental homes than they are in customization and specialized product, we\u2019re deep into really focusing on product simplification<\/span>. In some cases with long backlogs, you\u2019ve already got a lot of orders that kind of broaden your product mix that you\u2019ve got to work through so that the benefits kind of come over time. <span style=\"background-color: yellow;\">But we\u2019re very focused on product simplification<\/span>. <span style=\"background-color: yellow;\">It\u2019s a big deal for getting more throughput<\/span>. So we\u2019ll see gains continue from that perspective. And it plays a part in \u2013 Dan, in what I talked about earlier as far as getting more homes per employee hour produced. Some of that is very much attributable to product simplification. So we\u2019re getting those gains.<\/p>\n<p>Again, on the Commodore, it\u2019s just \u2013 the idea flow had started already. We\u2019ve gotten together, we had companywide general managers meeting a few weeks ago, that just really created a lot of excitement and optimism for me and the information flow of best practices in both directions was meaningful and just thinking about the things that Commodore bring to us, we\u2019ve talked in the past. I think it was when we announced the acquisition, we talked about some of the really good work they do around manufacturing technologies on the floor that increase cycle times and reduce labor intensity. They\u2019re not easy gains, there are things you have to really lay the groundwork for.<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019ve said before, they\u2019re very dependent on having really solid engineering systems because that\u2019s the backbone that allows you to do some of what they\u2019re doing. But we\u2019re going to be able to reapply that stuff across our previous \u201819 [Phonetic] plants. <span style=\"background-color: yellow;\">And there\u2019s things like CNC routers and CNC cutting machines to make that process more efficient<\/span>. They do some great work with laser projection that reduces errors when you have to make cuts, for example, or when fastening floorboards, for example. And there is a really \u2013 if they don\u2019t sound significant, they really are. And Commodore has been all over that kind of stuff. So we only have them for a little over a month right now, but I think the attitudes and openness on both sides are encouraging and I really think that we\u2019re going to be able to add value in both directions pretty significantly over time.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Daniel Moore<\/strong> \u2013 <em>CJS Securities \u2013 Analyst<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Great.

But what we filed earlier this week was really a very legally focused motion to dismiss<\/span>. And what I mean by that is, <span style=\"background-color: yellow;\">we\u2019re not in litigation where we\u2019re arguing what the SEC proposed in their complaint as far as the facts of what happened<\/span>, <span style=\"background-color: lightgreen;\">but we believe that there are some legal issues with their complaint<\/span>. And so our first step is what we filed this week to just challenge that and have a motion to dismiss. So, it\u2019s another step in the process. We hope that that would be a successful step. <span style=\"background-color: yellow;\">But we\u2019re ready to go to litigation if that\u2019s where we end up and we feel pretty confident in our position once that happens, if it does.

It also begs the question, why would they use such a methodology, other than to seemingly comply with an SEC mandate, yet without making that data readily accessible to many?<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>\u201c<strong><span style=\"color: #800000;\">I encourage you to review Cavco&#8217;s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including without limitation, the company&#8217;s most recent forms 10-K and 10-Q<\/span>,\u201d <\/strong>said Mark Fusler, Cavco\u2019s Director of Financial Reporting and Investor Relations, per the transcript above. \u00a0But as noted above in the preface of this Masthead report to the Cavco earnings call transcript, clicking on the PDF takes someone to the PacerMonitor site where a monthly fee plus \u201c<strong>Documents 15\u00a2 \/ page<\/strong>\u201d for their basic access plan is displayed. This is worthy of a legal inquiry. It also seems to go against the claim by Cavco that in the post Stegmayer \u201cdebacle\u201d era at Cavco that the firm is interested in being transparent and fully complaint with the various laws. If this is technically compliant, it would appear to be so in only the narrowest sense of the term. \u2018Here is the information, but you have to pay to see it.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>2) Boor and Cavco have made several interesting statements. Some are arguably self-contradictory.<\/p>\n<p>For instance.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Boor said: \u201c<strong>supply issues have not let up and they are affecting nearly every material we use to build homes.<\/strong>\u201d<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\u201c<strong>Labor difficulties also continue to negatively impact production. However, because of the holistic approach we\u2019ve been taking to address the root causes with fundamental and lasting solutions, we\u2019re beginning to see signs of improvement in staffing and retention. We\u2019ve implemented increased wages and benefits, but equally as important, we are investing in recruiting, onboarding and training processes<\/strong>.\u201d<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>But then: \u201c<span style=\"background-color: yellow;\">We\u2019ve been understaffed for quite a while, but you hit on the key, which is supplies are the question mark and we don\u2019t really \u2013 don\u2019t think we\u2019re any different from anyone else and saying we don\u2019t see that just suddenly clearing up<\/span>. So <span style=\"background-color: aqua;\">that\u2019s really a governor on how high we\u2019ll be able to go with production<\/span>.\u201d<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>By saying they have taken a \u201c<strong>holistic approach<\/strong>\u201d to address \u201c<strong>root causes<\/strong>\u201d with \u201c<strong>fundamental and lasting solutions<\/strong>\u201d and then saying that they \u201cdon\u2019t think we are any different than anyone else\u201d in dealing with supply and labor issues, they appear to be on both sides of the fence.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Perhaps as important is the \u201c<strong>governor on<\/strong>\u201d \u201c<strong>production<\/strong>\u201d statement.

While the Manufactured Housing Institute (MHI) moans or makes occasional noise about such matters, they have obviously not fixed it. Yet Cavco\u2019s former chairman and CEO, Joseph \u201cJoe\u201d Stegmayer remained MHI\u2019s chair even after stepping down at Cavco. Furthermore, Stegmayer is still reportedly on the main MHI board.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>https:\/\/www.manufacturedhomepronews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/3BsBillBuffettBidenWhatIfWarrenBuffettBillGatesJoeBidenPresObamaPicsAffordableManufacturedHomesPotentialAnalysisUglyPlusSundayWeeklyHeadlinesReviewMHProNews.jpg<\/p>\n<p><em>When the MHI board of Directors and membership lists are examined, what emerges are ties to some of the most powerful investment groups and uber-billionaires in the U.S. So, while Cavco can&#8217;t claim the necessary &#8216;clout&#8217; solo, MHI could in theory wield significant access and clout, as the Biden-Harris campaign website previously referenced reflects.

Cavco is not alone in having a problem with past comments contradicting current realities, as Manny Santana exemplifies. That might seem innocent to some, given that it was said years ago. But when the realities that sparked those comments has not changed, it begs the question. Why didn\u2019t Cavco, MHI, and others act to change that dynamic?
