FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

CAVCO INDUSTRIES REPORTS FOURTH QUARTER RESULTS
Sales $33.8 million
Net income $1.8 million

PHOENIX, AZ —(May 2, 2007) – Cavco Industries, Inc. (NASDAQ: CVCO) today announced financial results for the fourth quarter and fiscal year ended March 31, 2007.

     Net sales for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2007 were $33,812,000, down 34% from $51,216,000 for the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2006.

     Net income for the fourth quarter of $1,759,000 decreased 58% compared with $4,216,000 in the same quarter one year ago and net income per share based on basic weighted average shares outstanding was $0.28 versus $0.66. Net income per share based on diluted weighted average shares outstanding was $0.27 versus $0.62 last year.

     For the fiscal year ended March 31, 2007, net sales decreased 11% to $169,114,000 from $189,503,000 for fiscal 2006 and net income declined 23% to $11,549,000 from $15,049,000 last year. For fiscal 2007, net income per share based on basic weighted average shares outstanding was $1.81 versus $2.38 last year, and net income per share based on diluted weighted average shares outstanding was $1.74 versus $2.23 last year.

     “The overall residential housing market continued its steep decline during the quarter and demand for manufactured homes fared no better,” said Joseph Stegmayer, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer. “When reported later this month, industry shipments of manufactured homes for the first quarter of the calendar year are anticipated to be more than 35% below the same period last year. Housing analysts forecast that 2007 shipments will, at best, be even with those of 2006.”

     Mr. Stegmayer continued, “Fortunately, our diverse product line of quality, value oriented homes, our strong distribution base and careful cost control efforts enabled us to post results that we believe exceeded industry norms. However, it is very hard to estimate when manufactured housing will rebound, although it is clear that difficult conditions will persist in the months ahead. Accordingly, we will continue to execute the operating strategies we have in place while pursuing opportunities that will enhance our growth potential when market conditions improve.”

     Cavco’s senior management will hold a conference call to review these results tomorrow, May 3, 2007, at 12:00 p.m. (Eastern Time). Interested parties can access a live webcast of the conference call on the Internet atwww.cavco.com under the Investor Relations link, or the web sitewww.earnings.com. An archive of the webcast and presentation will be available for 90 days at these website addresses.

     Cavco Industries, Inc., headquartered in Phoenix, is the largest producer of manufactured homes in Arizona, based on wholesale shipments. The Company is also a leading producer of park model homes and vacation cabins in the United States.
