Ocala, FL…June 11, 2021—Today Nobility Homes, Inc. (OTCQX: NOBH) announced sales and earnings for its second quarter ended May 1, 2021. Sales for the second quarter of 2021 increased 45% to $14,742,900 as compared to $10,202,502 recorded in the second quarter of 2020. Income from operations for the second quarter of 2021 was $2,062,172 versus $1,914,867 in the same period a year ago.

Diluted earnings per share for the second quarter of 2021 were $0.47 per share compared to $0.43 per share last year.

For the first six months of fiscal 2021, sales increased 21% to $23,814,411 as compared to $19,646,354 for the first six months of 2020. Income from operations was $3,286,238 versus $3,548,572 last year. Net income after taxes was $2,790,703 compared to $2,950,145 last year. Diluted earnings per share were $0.77 per share compared to $0.81 per share last year.

Nobility’s financial position during the second quarter 2021 remains very strong with cash and cash equivalents, certificates of deposit and short term investments of $35,879,342 and no outstanding debt. Working capital is $36,246,631 and our ratio of current assets to current liabilities is 3.6:1. Stockholders’ equity is $50,141,381 and the book value per share of common stock increased to $13.81.

Terry Trexler, President, stated, “The Company’s second quarter sales were exceptionally strong and continue to reflect an improving housing market. Ongoing supply and labor challenges, plus the unprecedented inflation in most building products have negatively affected the Company’s gross profits.

Since May of 2020 the Company has experienced unprecedented inflation in most building products, with no immediate relief in sight resulting in significant increases to our material costs. We are monitoring this situation and will continue to adjust our selling prices to help offset the higher costs on each home.

The demand for affordable manufactured housing in Florida has been adversely impacted by coronavirus (“COVID-19”) and actions taken in response thereto. According to the Florida Manufactured Housing Association, shipments for the industry in Florida for the period from November 2020 through May 2021 were up approximately 6% from the same period last year. In addition, the lack of lenders in our industry, partly as a result of an increase in government regulations, still adversely affects our results by limiting many affordable manufactured housing buyers from purchasing homes.

The COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in government authorities implementing numerous measures to try to contain the virus. Although we were deemed an essential business and never closed our retail sales centers, these measures had a negative impact on customer traffic (and corresponding sales) within our centers and the operations of our business partners. While our manufacturing operations have continued, an outbreak in our manufacturing facility would negatively impact our ability to produce new homes. There is considerable uncertainty regarding the impact, and expected duration, of such measures and potential future measures, which could cause disruptions to our business in the future.

Maintaining our strong financial position is vital for future growth and success. Because of very challenging business conditions during economic recessions in our market area, management will continue to evaluate all expenses and react in a manner consistent with maintaining our strong financial position, while exploring opportunities to expand our distribution and manufacturing operations.

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, 2021 the Company celebrated its 54th anniversary in business specializing in the design and production of quality, affordable manufactured homes. With multiple retail sales centers in Florida for over 30 years and an insurance agency subsidiary, we are the only vertically integrated manufactured home company headquartered in Florida.

MANAGEMENT WILL NOT HOLD A CONFERENCE CALL. IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS, PLEASE CALL TERRY OR TOM TREXLER @ 800-476-6624 EXT 121 OR TERRY@NOBILITYHOMES.COM OR TOM@NOBILITYHOMES.COM
