1. Basis of Presentation
The consolidated interim financial statements include the accounts of Cavco Industries, Inc. (“Cavco Inc.”) and its wholly-owned subsidiary (collectively, the “Company”) after elimination of all significant intercompany balances and transactions. The statements have been prepared, without audit, in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted.
In the opinion of the Company, all adjustments (consisting of normal, recurring accruals) necessary to present fairly the information in the consolidated financial statements of the Company have been included. Certain previous period amounts in the accompanying consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year. The Company suggests that these consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the notes to consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s Form 10-K Annual Report filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 20, 2005 (the “Form 10-K”).
All shares authorized, outstanding and per share amounts for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2004 have been restated to give retroactive application to the January 31, 2005 two-for-one stock split effected in the form of a 100 percent stock dividend to Company stockholders of record on January 18, 2005.
The Company’s deferred tax assets primarily result from financial accruals and its deferred tax liabilities result from excess tax amortization of goodwill.
For a description of 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.
Accounting For Stock Based Compensation — The Company accounts for its stock-based compensation programs under APB No. 25,Accounting for Stock Issued to Employeesand related interpretations (“APB 25”), under which no compensation expense has been recognized, as all options have been granted with an exercise price equal to the fair value of the common stock on the date of grant. The Company has adopted the disclosure-only provisions of SFAS No. 123,Accounting for Stock Based Compensation, as amended by SFAS No. 148,Accounting for Stock Based Compensation-Transition and Disclosure(“SFAS 123”). For the disclosure requirements of SFAS 123, the fair value of each option grant as of the date of the grant was estimated using the Black-Scholes option pricing method. The assumptions used for the three months ended December 31, 2005 were volatility of 26.1%, risk-free interest rate of 4.34%, dividend rate of 0.0%, and an expected life of the options of 5 years.
Options granted generally vest over a three-year period with 25% becoming vested on the grant date and the remainder becoming vested in cumulative 25% increments on each of the first three anniversaries of the grant date. Had compensation cost been determined as prescribed by SFAS 123, utilizing the assumptions detailed above and amortizing the resulting fair value of the stock options granted over the respective vesting period of the options, net income and earnings per share would have been reduced to the pro forma amounts for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2005 and 2004 as follows:

Recent Accounting Pronouncements — During December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement No. 123R,Share-Based Payment(“SFAS 123R”), which requires companies to measure and recognize compensation expense for all stock-based payments at fair value. Share-based payments include stock options which the Company grants to some of its employees and directors under its stock incentive plan at prices equal to the market value of the stock on the dates the options were granted. SFAS 123R is effective for annual periods beginning after June 15, 2005. The Company plans to adopt SFAS 123R effective April 1, 2006.
Because the Company currently accounts for share-based payments to employees using the intrinsic value method under APB No. 25, it has recognized no compensation cost for stock options granted. Accordingly, the adoption of SFAS 123R’s fair value method will impact our results of operations, although it will have no impact on our overall financial position. The impact of adoption of SFAS 123R cannot be predicted at this time because it will depend on levels of share-based payments granted in the future. However, had we adopted SFAS 123R in prior periods, the impact of that standard would have approximated the impact of SFAS 123 as described in the disclosure of pro forma net income and net income per share above.
2. Inventories
Raw material inventories are valued at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out method which approximates actual cost) or market. Finished goods are valued at the lower of cost or market, using the specific identification method. Inventories at December 31, 2005 and March 31, 2005 were as follows:

| 2005 | 2005 | |||||||

3. Revolving line of credit
The Company has established a $15 million revolving line of credit facility (“RLC”) with JPMorgan Chase Bank N.A. which expires on July 31, 2007. As of December 31, 2005, $945 of the line amount is reserved for an outstanding letter of credit issued for the Company’s workers’ compensation program. The Company has not made any draws under the RLC. The outstanding principal amount of borrowings under the RLC bears interest at the Company’s election at either the prime rate or the London Interbank Offered Rate plus 1.75%. The RLC contains certain restrictive and financial covenants, which, among other things, limit the Company’s ability to pledge assets and incur additional indebtedness, and requires the Company to maintain a certain defined fixed charge coverage ratio.
4. Warranties
Homes are warranted against manufacturing defects for a period of one year commencing at the time of sale to the retail customer. Estimated costs relating to home warranties are provided at the date of sale. The Company has provided a liability for estimated future warranty costs relating to homes sold, based upon management’s assessment of historical experience factors and current industry trends. Activity in the liability for estimated warranties was as follows:

| Balance at end of period | $ | 6,158 | $ | 4,983 | $ | 6,158 | $ | 4,983 | ||||||||
5. Contingencies
The Company is contingently liable under terms of repurchase agreements with financial institutions providing inventory financing for independent 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 and is further reduced by the resale value of repurchased homes. The maximum amount for which the Company was contingently liable under such agreements approximated $28,770 at December 31, 2005. The Company has a reserve for repurchase commitments based on prior experience and market conditions of $1,500 at December 31, 2005. In connection with the repurchase agreement with one financial institution, the Company has provided a guaranty in the amount of $300 to guaranty payment should one of the Company’s larger independent dealers default on certain of its obligations in the event of a repurchase by the lender. The potential liability related to this guaranty is included in the Company’s reserve for repurchase commitments.
The Company is engaged in various legal proceedings that are incidental to and arise in the course of its business. Certain of the cases filed against the Company and other companies engaged in businesses similar to the Company allege, among other things, breach of contract and warranty, product liability and personal injury. Legal fees associated with these lawsuits are expensed as incurred. In the opinion of management, the ultimate liability, if any, with respect to the proceedings in which the Company is currently involved is not expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position or results of operations. However, the potential exists for unanticipated material adverse judgments against the Company.

6. Earnings Per Share
The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share. Earnings per share calculations for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2004 have been restated to give retroactive application to the January 31, 2005 two-for-one stock split effected in the form of a 100 percent stock dividend to Company stockholders of record on January 18, 2005.

7. Discontinued Operations
The Company has plans to dispose of certain of its retail sales centers and these operations are classified as discontinued retail operations. Finished goods inventories to be liquidated in conjunction with the disposal of these retail sales centers approximated $693 at December 31, 2005. Income from discontinued retail operations for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2005 and for the nine months ended December 31, 2004 resulted from better than anticipated results from liquidating retail inventories at our closed locations. This income was partially offset by an accrual for the estimated remaining lease costs for one retail location closed during the second quarter of fiscal 2005. Net sales for the retail sales centers to be disposed of were $948 and $2,608 for the three month periods ended December 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively, and $4,520 and $10,801 for the nine month periods ended December 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively. The decline in sales versus the prior year was primarily due to the sale of finished goods inventories and the closure or disposal of retail sales centers in accordance with the Company’s plans.
8. Business Segment Information
The Company operates in two business segments in the manufactured housing industry — Manufacturing and Retail. Through its Manufacturing segment, the Company designs and manufactures homes which are sold primarily in the Southwestern and Western United States to a network of dealers which includes Company-owned retail locations comprising the Retail segment. The Company’s Retail segment derives its revenues from home sales to individuals. The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in the Form 10-K. Retail segment results include retail profits from the sale of homes to consumers but do not include any manufacturing segment profits associated with the homes sold. Intercompany transactions between reportable operating segments are eliminated in consolidation. Each segment’s results include corporate office costs that are directly and exclusively incurred for the segment. The following table summarizes information with respect to the Company’s business segments for the periods indicated:

Item 2: Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Overview
The consolidated financial statements contained in this quarterly report reflect the financial condition and results of operations of Cavco Industries, Inc. (the “Company”).

Three and nine months ended December 31, 2005 compared to 2004
Net Sales.Total net sales increased 17% to $45,320 for the three months ended December 31, 2005 compared to $38,820 last year. For the first nine months of the fiscal year ending March 31, 2006, net sales increased 22% to $138,287 versus $113,392 last year.
Manufacturing net sales increased 14% to $44,013 for the three months ended December 31, 2005 from $38,563 for last year and 20% to $133,923 for the first nine months of fiscal 2006 from $111,846 last year. These increases in sales were attributable to increases in the number of homes sold and wholesale sales prices. Total homes sold during the current quarter increased 4.9% to 1,049 wholesale shipments versus 1,000 last year and the average sales price per home increased 8.8% to $41,957 versus $38,563 last year. The higher volume of homes sold resulted from stronger demand for our products particularly in Arizona and California and expansion of specialty products to markets different from those for traditional manufactured homes. Wholesale sales prices were increased to offset significant material cost increases experienced since early 2004. In addition, customers are trending toward larger homes with more amenities because lower interest rates have made higher priced homes more affordable and traditional mortgage financing can require more square footage to meet appraisal requirements.
Retail net sales increased $1,633 to $3,864 for the three months ended December 31, 2005 from $2,231 for the same period last year and $3,045 to $10,211 for the first nine months of fiscal 2006 from $7,166 last year. This increase in retail sales was due to additional units sold during the quarter and a higher average sales price per unit.
Gross Profit.Gross profit as a percent of sales increased to 19.8% for the three months ended December 31, 2005 from 18.2% last year and to 20.4% for the first nine months of fiscal 2006 from 18.0% last year. The increases in gross profit percentage were primarily due to increases in sales prices, which were enacted to offset material cost increases, and the efficiencies realized through higher production rates. Since early 2004, the Company has experienced significant cost increases in substantially all of the major components in the Company’s products, including lumber and lumber-related products, gypsum products, raw steel and products built with steel and petroleum-based products and services, including delivery costs. These circumstances were intensified by the hurricane activity in the gulf coast region of the United States during the second quarter of fiscal year 2006. The Company continues to be concerned about material availability and pricing as its suppliers respond to strong construction market demand that has been further escalated by these natural disasters.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses.Selling, general and administrative expenses increased 12.6% or $441 to $3,946 or 8.7% of net sales for the three months ended December 31, 2005 versus $3,505 or 9.0% of net sales last year. For the first nine months of fiscal 2006, selling, general and administrative expenses increased 12.3% or $1,342 to $12,265 from $10,923 last year. The increase was primarily the result of incentive compensation programs tied to profitability and an increase in costs influenced by higher sales volume.

Interest Income.Interest income represents income earned on short-term investments and unrestricted cash. Interest income from $35,000 of the Company’s short-term investments is earned on a tax-free basis. The increases in interest income for the current quarter versus the comparative period for last year resulted from the increase in the Company’s investable funds and higher short-term interest rates.
Income Taxes.The effective income tax rate for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2005 was approximately 35% and 38%, respectively, versus approximately 39% and 40%, respectively, for the same periods last year. The lower income tax rates reflect the effects of tax-free interest income noted above, certain state income tax credits, and deductions provided in the American Jobs Creation Act.
Discontinued Retail Operations.Finished goods inventories to be liquidated in conjunction with the disposal of discontinued retail operations approximated $693 at December 31, 2005. Income from discontinued retail operations for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2005 and for the nine months ended December 31, 2004 resulted from better than anticipated results from liquidating retail inventories at our closed locations. This income was partially offset by an accrual for the estimated remaining lease costs for one retail location closed during the second quarter of fiscal 2005.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company has established a $15 million revolving line of credit facility (“RLC”) with JPMorgan Chase Bank N.A. As of December 31, 2005, $945 of the line amount is reserved for an outstanding letter of credit issued for the Company’s workers’ compensation program. The Company has not made any draws under the RLC. The outstanding principal amount of borrowings under the RLC bears interest at the Company’s election at either the prime rate or the London Interbank Offered Rate plus 1.75%. The RLC expires on July 31, 2007.
The RLC contains certain restrictive and financial covenants, which, among other things, limit the Company’s ability to pledge assets and incur additional indebtedness, and requires the Company to maintain a certain defined fixed charge coverage ratio.
We believe that cash on hand at December 31, 2005, together with cash flow from operations, will be sufficient to fund our operations for at least the next twelve months. In addition, our $15 million line of credit facility described above can be used to supplement these sources of liquidity.
Operating activities provided $10,120 of cash during the nine months ended December 31, 2005 compared to providing $8,663 of cash during the first nine months of last year. Cash generated by operating activities was primarily derived from operating income before non-cash charges partially offset by higher inventories necessary to supply increased production and to ensure the availability of raw materials. Cash generated by operating activities in the prior year was primarily derived from operating income before non-cash charges partially offset by increased accounts receivable due to the timing of payments.
Investing activities required the use of $45,112 of cash during the nine months ended December 31, 2005 compared to the use of $384 last year. The cash was primarily used to make net purchases of $39,900 of short-term investments in order to enhance yields. In addition, the Company also purchased $5,212 of property, plant and equipment, including $1,550 for a production facility in Texas and $3,000 for land in Arizona on which the Company may build an additional production facility.
Financing activities provided $581 of cash during the nine months ended December 31, 2005 from common stock issued for stock options exercised. The Company had no financing activities during the nine months ended December 31, 2004.
Critical Accounting Policies
In our Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 20, 2005, 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 its consolidated financial statements.

During December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement No. 123R,Share-Based Payment(“SFAS 123R”), which requires companies to measure and recognize compensation expense for all stock-based payments at fair value. Share-based payments include stock options which the Company grants to some of its employees and directors under its stock incentive plan at prices equal to the market value of the stock on the dates the options were granted. SFAS 123R is effective for annual periods beginning after June 15, 2005. The Company plans to adopt SFAS 123R effective April 1, 2006.
Because the Company currently accounts for share-based payments to employees using the intrinsic value method under APB No. 25,Accounting for Stock Issued to Employeesand related interpretations, it has recognized no compensation cost for stock options granted. Accordingly, the adoption of SFAS 123R’s fair value method will impact our results of operations, although it will have no impact on our overall financial position. The impact of adoption of SFAS 123R cannot be predicted at this time because it will depend on levels of share-based payments granted in the future. However, had we adopted SFAS 123R in prior periods, the impact of that standard would have approximated the impact of SFAS 123 as described in the disclosure of pro forma net income and net income per share in Note 1 to our consolidated financial statements.
FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Forward-looking statements may be identified by the context of the statement and generally arise when we are discussing our beliefs, estimates or expectations.
Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond our control.

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.
The Company maintains short-term investments. Short-term investments are comprised of auction rate certificates which are adjustable-rate securities with dividend rates that are reset by bidders through periodic “Dutch auctions” generally conducted every 7 to 35 days by a broker/dealer on behalf of the issuer. The Company believes these securities are highly liquid investments through the related auctions; however, the collateralizing securities have stated terms of up to thirty (30) years. The investment instruments are rated AAA by Standard & Poor’s Ratings Group, or equivalent. The Company’s investments are intended to establish a high-quality portfolio that preserves principal, meets liquidity needs, and delivers an appropriate yield in relationship to the Company’s investment guidelines and market conditions. Given the short-term nature of these investments, and that we have no borrowings outstanding, we are not subject to significant interest rate risk.
