Nobility Homes, Inc.
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
Note 1 Basis of Presentation and Accounting Policies
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for the three months ended February 1, 2025 have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission for Form 10-Q.
Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements.
The unaudited financial information included in this report includes all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to reflect a fair statement of the results for the interim periods. The results of operations for the three months ended February 1, 2025, are not necessarily indicative of the results of the full fiscal year.
Note 2 Recently Issued Accounting Standards
In November 2023, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2023-07, "Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures", which expands disclosures about a public entity’s reportable segments and requires more enhanced information about a reportable segment’s expenses, interim segment profit or loss, and how a public entity’s chief operating decision maker uses reported segment profit or loss information in assessing segment performance and allocating resources. The update will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023 (fiscal 2025) and interim periods with fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024 (fiscal 2026). We are assessing the effect of this update on our consolidated financial statement disclosures.
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, "Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures", which expands disclosures in an entity’s income tax rate reconciliation table and regarding cash taxes paid to the U.S. Government. The update will be effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024 (fiscal 2026). We are assessing the effect of this update on our consolidated financial statement disclosures.
Note 3 Inventories
New home inventory is carried at a lower of cost or net realizable value. Capitalized manufacturing costs on retail manufactured homes built by the company are valued at manufacturing cost, including materials, labor, and manufacturing overhead, or net purchase price if acquired from unaffiliated third parties. The cost of finished home inventories determined on the specific identification method is removed from inventories and recorded as a component of cost of sales at the time revenue is recognized. Under the specific identification method, if finished home inventory can be sold for a profit there is no basis to write down the inventory below the lower of cost or net realizable value.
Other pre-owned homes are acquired (Repossessions Inventory) as a convenience to the Company’s joint venture partner, 21st Mortgage Corporation. This inventory has been repossessed by 21st Mortgage Corporation. The Company acquired this inventory at the amount of the uncollected balance of the financing at the time of the foreclosure/repossessions by 21st Mortgage Corporation. The Company records this inventory at a cost determined by the specific identification method. All of the refurbishment costs are paid by 21st Mortgage Corporation. This arrangement assists 21st Mortgage Corporation with liquidation of their repossessed inventory. The timing of these repurchases by the Company is unpredictable as it is based on the repossessions 21st Mortgage Corporation incurs in the portfolio. When the home is sold, the Company retains the cost of the home, an interest factor on the cost of the home and a sales commission, from the sales proceeds. Any additional proceeds are paid to 21st Mortgage. Any shortfall from the proceeds to cover these amounts is paid by 21st Mortgage to the Company. As the Company has no risk of loss on the sale, there is no valuation allowance necessary for repossessions inventory.
Inventory held at consignment locations by affiliated entities is included in the Company’s inventory on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets.
7
Pre-owned homes are also taken as trade-ins on new home sales (Trade-in Inventory). This inventory is recorded at estimated actual wholesale value, which is generally lower than market value, determined on the specific identification method, plus refurbishment costs incurred to date to bring the inventory to a more saleable state. The Trade-in Inventory amount is reduced where necessary on a unit specific basis by a valuation reserve, which management believes results in inventory being valued at net realizable value.
Other inventory costs are determined on a first-in, first-out basis.
A breakdown of the elements of inventory at February 1, 2025 and November 2, 2024 is as follows:

The fair values were estimated based on quoted market prices in active markets at each respective period end.
Note 5 Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents, accounts and notes receivable, accounts payable, customer deposits and accrued expenses approximate fair value because of the short maturity of those instruments.
The Company accounts for the fair value of financial instruments in accordance with FASB Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) No. 820 “Fair Value Measurements” (ASC 820).
ASC 820 defines fair value as the price that would be received upon the sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability (i.e. exit price) in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. ASC 820 requires disclosures that categorize assets and liabilities measured at fair value into one of three different levels depending on the assumptions (i.e. inputs) used in the valuation. Financial assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input significant to the fair value measurement. The ASC 820 fair value hierarchy is defined as follows:

The following tables represent the Company’s financial assets and liabilities which are carried at fair value at February 1, 2025 and November 2, 2024.

Note 6 Net Income per Share
These condensed consolidated financial statements include “basic” and “diluted” net income per share information for all periods presented. The basic net income per share is calculated by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of shares outstanding. The diluted net income per share is calculated by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of shares outstanding, adjusted for dilutive common shares, which are the result of outstanding stock options.
Note 7 Revenues by Products and Services
The Company operates in one business segment, which is manufactured housing and ancillary services.
Revenues by net sales from manufactured housing homes and insurance agent commissions for the three months ended February 1, 2025 and February 3, 2024 are as follows.

The Company reported net income of $1,980,422 in the first quarter of 2025, compared to a net income of $2,338,437 in the first quarter of 2024. Net sales decreased in first quarter of 2025 as compared to the prior year because of the decrease in the number of retail homes sold and manufactured. We believe the higher interest rates on mortgages are negatively impacting sales as compared to the prior year. There also remain delays in the receipt of certain key production materials from suppliers, back orders, price increases and labor shortages which continue to cause delays in the completion of the homes at our manufacturing facility and the set-up process of retail homes in the field. Our inability to timely deliver and set up homes to customers has negatively impacted sales and earnings. We expect these challenges will continue into fiscal year 2025. The Company also continues to experience inflation in several building products resulting in increases in our material and labor costs which may increase the wholesale and retail selling prices of our homes. We believe that potential customers have delayed or deferred purchasing decisions when considering the interest rate environment.
The current demand for affordable manufactured housing in Florida and the U.S. has slowed due to the interest rate environment and increased costs associated with mortgages. According to the Florida Manufactured Housing Association, shipments for the industry in Florida for the period from November 2024 through January 2025 declined by approximately 15% from the same period last year.
The following table summarizes certain key sales statistics and percentage of gross profit for the three months ended February 1, 2025 and February 3, 2024.

Maintaining our strong financial position is vital for future growth and success. Our many years of experience in the Florida market, combined with home buyers’ increased need for more affordable housing, should serve the Company well in the coming years. Management remains convinced that our specific geographic market is one of the best long-term growth areas in the country.
On June 5, 2024, we celebrated our 57th anniversary in business specializing in the design and production of quality, affordable manufactured and modular homes. With multiple retail sales centers in Florida for over 34 years and an insurance agency subsidiary, we are the only vertically integrated manufactured home company headquartered in Florida.
Insurance agent commission revenues in the first quarter of 2025 were $58,374 compared to $77,283 in the first quarter of 2024. Revenues are generated by new and renewal policies being written which affect agent commission earned. The Company establishes appropriate reserves for policy cancellations based on numerous factors, including past transaction history with customers, historical experience and other information, which is periodically evaluated and adjusted as deemed necessary. In the opinion of management, no reserve was deemed necessary for policy cancellations at February 1, 2025 and November 2, 2024.
Gross profit as a percentage of net sales was 32% in the first quarter of 2025 and in the first quarter of 2024. The gross profit in the first quarter of 2025 was $3,970,785 compared to $4,734,346 in the first quarter of 2024. The gross profit is dependent on the sales mix of wholesale and retail homes and number of pre-owned homes sold. The gross profit as a percentage of net sales remained consistent due to increases in our selling prices to offset the higher inflation costs of building products and labor cost on each home and the increase in the average gross profit at our retail sales centers.
10
Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of net sales was 14% in the first quarter of 2025 and in the first quarter of 2024. Selling, general and administrative expenses in the first quarter of 2025 were $1,676,650 compared to $2,032,330 in the first quarter of 2024.
The Company earned interest income of $285,278 for the first quarter of 2025 compared to $297,999 for the first quarter of 2024. The decrease in interest income for the first three months of 2025 is primarily due to the lower interest rates.
Our earnings from Majestic 21 in the first quarter of 2025 were $25,807 compared to $22,174 for the first quarter of 2024. The earnings from Majestic 21 represent the allocation of profit and losses which are owned 50% by 21st Mortgage Corporation and 50% by the Company. The earnings from the Majestic 21 loan portfolio vary quarter to quarter, but overall, the earnings will decrease due to the amortization, maturity and payoff of the loans.
We received a distribution from 21st Mortgage Corporation in the first quarter of 2025 in the amount of $38,152 and no distribution in the first quarter if 2024. The distributions are from an escrow arrangement related to a Finance Revenue Sharing Agreement (FRSA) between 21st Mortgage Corporation and the Company. The distributions from the escrow arrangement, relating to certain loans financed by 21st Mortgage Corporation, are recorded as income by the Company when received. The earnings from the FRSA loan portfolio will vary quarter to quarter but will continue to decrease due to the amortization and payoff of the loans.
The Company realized pre-tax income in the first quarter of 2025 of $2,649,213 as compared to $3,123,529 in the first quarter of 2024.
The Company recorded an income tax expense in the amount of $668,791 in the first quarter of 2025 as compared to $785,092 in the first quarter 2024.
We reported net income of $1,980,422 for the first quarter of 2025 or $0.61 per share ($0.60 diluted), compared to $2,338,437 or $0.72 per share ($0.71 diluted), for the first quarter of 2024.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Cash and cash equivalents were $16,291,084 at February 1, 2025 compared to $13,521,296 at November 2, 2024. Certificates of deposit were $12,648,261 at February 1, 2025 compared to $13,021,839 at November 2, 2024. Short-term investments were $677,101 at February 1, 2025 compared to $680,017 at November 2, 2024. Working capital was $44,796,398 at February 1, 2025 as compared to $42,927,149 at November 2, 2024. The Company received approximately $1.6 million in the first quarter of 2024, from 21st Mortgage Corporation, representing our 50% of the excess capital in the portfolio. Prestige new home inventory was $17,586,945 at February 1, 2025 compared to $18,475,931 at November 2, 2024. Prestige has sixty six (66) ($5.2 million) compared to first quarter last year of sixty (60) ($4.7 million) new homes that are included in inventory and are in the field waiting to be completed and closed. We own the entire inventory for our Prestige retail sales centers, which includes new and pre-owned homes, and do not incur any third-party floor plan financing expenses.
The Company currently has no line of credit facility and no debt and does not believe that such a facility is currently necessary for its operations. The Company also has approximately $4.6 million of cash surrender value of life insurance which it would be able to access as an additional source of liquidity though the Company has not currently viewed this to be necessary. As of February 1, 2025, the Company continued to report a strong balance sheet which included total assets of approximately $67.3 million which was funded primarily by stockholders’ equity of approximately $58.6 million.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
In Item 7 of our Form 10-K, under the heading “Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates,” we have provided a discussion of the critical accounting policies and estimates that management believes affect its more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our Consolidated Financial Statements. No significant changes have occurred since that time.
Forward-Looking Statements
Certain statements in this report are unaudited or forward-looking statements within the meaning of the federal securities laws. Although Nobility believes that the amounts and expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions, there are risks and uncertainties that may cause actual results to differ materially from expectations. These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, the potential adverse impact on our business caused by competitive pricing pressures at both the wholesale and retail levels, inflation, tariffs, increasing material costs (including forest based products) or availability of materials due to supply chain interruptions (such as current inflation with forest products and supply issues with vinyl siding and PVC piping), changes in market demand, increase in interest rates, availability of financing for retail and wholesale purchasers, consumer confidence, adverse weather conditions that reduce sales at retail centers, the risk of manufacturing plant shutdowns due to storms or
11
other factors, the impact of marketing and cost-management programs, the impact of higher interest rates on mortgage financing, reliance on the Florida economy, impact of labor shortage, impact of materials shortage, increasing labor cost, cyclical nature of the manufactured housing industry, impact of rising fuel costs, catastrophic events impacting insurance costs, availability of insurance coverage for various risks to Nobility, market demographics, management’s ability to attract and retain executive officers and key personnel, increased global tensions, market disruptions resulting from terrorist attacks, or other events such as a pandemic, any armed conflict involving the United States and the impact of inflation.
