-
Backlogs totaled
$160 million
at the end of the quarter representing 4-6 weeks of production. - Stock repurchases were approximately $44 million in the quarter, leaving approximately $98 million available for repurchases under our previously announced Board authorizations.
Commenting on the quarter, President and Chief Executive Officer Bill Boor said, “Industry shipments slowed in the quarter with HUD shipments at a significantly lower pace in the reported October and November period. Our operating approach was to use the backlog and additional days down over the holidays to maintain a steady daily production pace in the factories. Looking forward, affordable housing continues to rise in national policy discussions and as we talk with retailers and communities, the tone in the market remains optimistic. We will be looking to the Spring selling season to determine our ability to increase production from here.”
He continued, “Notably, our Financial services segment results continue to be very strong, reflecting the outstanding work to improve profitability of the insurance operation. Additionally, we are now through the first full quarter with American Homestar. This quarter’s results expectedly reflect deal costs and integration plan spending. However, as that investment phase concludes we will see the positive impact of this deal, which will exceed our previous expectations.”

- In the factory-built housing segment, Gross profit increased for the three and nine months ended primarily due to home sales volume and Net revenue per home sold, partially offset by an increase in cost of sales per home sold. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased for the three and nine months ended due primarily to the addition of American Homestar and deal costs in the current period. For the nine months ended, the increase is also due to higher incentive based compensation due to higher earnings compared to the prior year period.
- In the financial services segment, Gross profit and Income from operations increased primarily due to the insurance division having higher premiums and lower claims losses. The claims loss reduction resulted from policy underwriting improvements and severe weather events in the prior year periods. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased in both periods primarily due to higher compensation.
