CAVCO INDUSTRIES REPORTS SECOND QUARTER RESULTS
Sales increase 25% to $38.6 million
Income from continuing operations up 75% to $2.0 million
PHOENIX, AZ -(October 25, 2004) – Cavco Industries, Inc. (NASDAQ: CVCO) today announced financial results for the second quarter and first six months of fiscal 2005 ended September 30, 2004.
Net sales for the second quarter of fiscal 2005 rose 25% to $38,635,000 from $30,820,000 last year. Net income for the second quarter increased to $2,131,000 compared with $1,133,000 in the same period one year ago.
Net income per share for the second quarter of this year was $0.68 based on basic weighted average shares outstanding and $0.66 per share based on diluted weighted average shares versus $0.36 for the second quarter of last year.
Pre-tax income from continuing operations for the second quarter of the current year was $3,301,000 compared with $1,888,000 for the second quarter of last year. After-tax income from continuing operations increased 75% to $1,981,000 or $0.61 per share versus $1,133,000 or $0.36 per share for last year’s second quarter.
For the first six months of fiscal 2005, net sales climbed 24% to $74,572,000 from $60,335,000 last year. Net income for the first six months of this year increased to $3,838,000 versus $2,075,000 for the comparable prior year period including a proforma tax provision.
Net income per share for the first six months of fiscal 2005 was $1.22 based on basic weighted average shares outstanding and $1.18 per share based on diluted weighted average shares versus $0.67 for the same period in the prior year including a proforma tax provision.
Pre-tax Income from continuing operations was $6,145,000 for the first six months of this year compared with $3,531,000 for the same period last year. After-tax income from continuing operations increased 74% to $3,688,000 or $1.13 per share versus $2,119,000 or $0.68 per share for the same period last year assuming a proforma income tax provision.
Commenting on the results, Joseph Stegmayer, President and Chief Executive Officer, said, “We are pleased to report improved sales and earnings for the quarter. While total industry shipments of new homes continue to be weak across most of the nation, we did benefit from strong demand for homes in the California market. Our products have also been well received in Arizona and surrounding states although industry shipments continue to be very soft throughout the Southwest.”

Mr. Stegmayer continued, “From a manufacturing standpoint, higher volume and an improved product mix enabled us to increase productivity and efficiency in our plants which had a positive impact on profit margins. Offsetting these efficiencies were the increased raw material prices that we experienced during the quarter. We see no signs of relief from escalating raw material and purchased component prices and remain concerned about the adverse impact such cost increases may have on operating results in the months ahead.”
Cavco also announced that it has amended its revolving credit facility with Bank One N. A. The amendment eliminates the borrowing base requirement which makes available the entire $15 million line.
Addressing Cavco’s financial position, Sean Nolen, Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, said, “Cavco continues to build its financial strength with this quarter’s earnings pushing us above $100 million in stockholders’ equity. Our balance sheet liquidity, positive cash flow and available line of credit give us the financial wherewithal to pursue future growth opportunities that may present themselves.”
Cavco’s senior management will hold a conference call to review these results tomorrow, October 26, 2004, at 1:00 p.m. (Eastern Time). Interested parties can access a live webcast of the conference call on the Internet at http://phx.corporate-ir.net/playerlink.zhtml?c=145386&s=wm&e=956581. An archive of the webcast and presentation will be available for 90 days at this website.
