FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

CAVCO INDUSTRIES REPORTS THIRD QUARTER RESULTS
Sales $31.9 million
Net income $1.4 million

PHOENIX, AZ —(January 24, 2008) — Cavco Industries, Inc. (NASDAQ: CVCO) today announced financial results for the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal 2008 ended December 31, 2007.

     Net sales for the third quarter totaled $31,909,000, down 16% from $38,189,000 for the third quarter of fiscal year 2007.

     Net income for the third quarter of $1,365,000 was 39% below the $2,239,000 reported in the same quarter one year ago. Net income per share based on basic and diluted weighted average shares outstanding was $0.21 and $0.20, respectively, versus $0.35 and $0.34, respectively last year.

     For the first nine months of fiscal 2008, net sales decreased 20% to $107,710,000 from $135,302,000 for the comparable prior year period, and net income declined 49% to $5,009,000 from $9,790,000 last year. For the first nine months of fiscal 2008, net income per share based on basic and diluted weighted average shares outstanding was $0.78 and $0.75, respectively, versus $1.54 and $1.48, respectively for the year-earlier period.

     Commenting on the results, Joseph Stegmayer, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer, said, “The third quarter presented a myriad of challenges. Industry wide sales of new homes remained very weak, sales of existing homes were slow and the mortgage markets were unstable. Considering the difficult environment we are pleased that the company maintained its profitable performance.”

     Mr. Stegmayer concluded, “It is unclear how the housing market will perform in the months ahead. We plan to do whatever it takes from a product offering, marketing, and operating efficiency standpoint to achieve our objective of positive results during these uncertain times for the housing industry and the general economy.”

     Cavco’s senior management will hold a conference call to review these results tomorrow, January 25, 2008, at 11:00 AM (Eastern Time). Interested parties can access a live webcast of the conference call on the Internet at www.cavco.com under the Investor Relations link, or the web site www.earnings.com.
