Skyline Champion Corporation

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

1. Basis of Presentation and Business

Nature of Operations: Skyline Champion Corporation's (the “Company”) operations consist of manufacturing, retail, construction services, and transportation activities. At December 30, 2023, the Company operated 43 manufacturing facilities throughout the United States (“U.S.”) and five manufacturing facilities in western Canada that primarily construct factory-built, timber-framed manufactured and modular houses that are sold primarily to independent retailers, builders/developers, and manufactured home community operators. In addition to its core home building business, the Company provides construction services to install and set-up factory-built homes. The Company’s retail operations consist of 73 sales centers that sell manufactured houses to consumers across the U.S. The Company’s transportation business engages independent owners/drivers to transport recreational vehicles throughout the U.S. and Canada and manufactured houses in certain regions of the U.S. The Company also has a holding company located in the Netherlands.

Basis of Presentation: The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) for Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and Article 10 of SEC Regulation S-X. Accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“U.S. GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations.

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its majority-owned subsidiaries after elimination of intercompany balances and transactions. In the opinion of management, these statements include all normal recurring adjustments necessary to fairly state the Company’s consolidated results of operations, cash flows, and financial position. The Company has evaluated subsequent events after the balance sheet date through the date of the filing of this report with the SEC. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and the notes to the audited consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, which was filed with the SEC on May 30, 2023 (the “Fiscal 2023 Annual Report”).

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the condensed consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes thereto. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The condensed consolidated income statements, condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income, and condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations or cash flows for the full year.

The Company’s fiscal year is a 52- or 53-week period that ends on the Saturday nearest to March 31. The Company’s current fiscal year, “fiscal 2024,” will end on March 30, 2024 and will include 52 weeks. References to “fiscal 2023” refer to the Company’s fiscal year ended April 1, 2023. The three and nine months ended December 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 each included 13 and 39 weeks, respectively.

The Company’s allowance for credit losses on financial assets measured at amortized cost reflects management’s estimate of credit losses over the remaining expected life of such assets, measured primarily using historical experience, as well as current economic conditions and forecasts that affect the collectability of the reported amount. Expected credit losses for newly recognized financial assets, as well as changes to expected credit losses during the period, are recognized in earnings. Accounts receivable are reflected net of reserves of $1.7 million at both December 30, 2023 and April 1, 2023.

Floor plan receivables consist of loans the Company purchased from Triad Financial Services, Inc. ("Triad") in the first quarter of fiscal 2024 for $18.5 million, of which approximately $3.8 million remains outstanding at December 30, 2023, and amounts loaned by the Company through that financial institution to certain independent retailers for purchases of homes manufactured by the Company, of which $5.2 million was outstanding at December 30, 2023, both of which are carried net of payments received and recorded at amortized cost. The Company intends to hold the floor plan receivables until maturity or payoff. These loans are serviced by the financial institution, to which we pay a servicing fee. Upon execution of the financing arrangement, the loans are generally payable at the earlier of the sale of the underlying home or two years from the origination date. At December 30, 2023, floor plan receivables are included in Other Current Assets and Other Noncurrent Assets in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

The floor plan receivables are collateralized by the related homes, mitigating loss exposure. The Company and the financial institution evaluate the credit worthiness of each independent retailer prior to credit approval, including reviewing the independent retailer’s payment history, financial condition, and the overall economic environment. We evaluate the risk of credit loss in aggregate on existing loans with similar terms, based on historic experience and current economic conditions, as well as individual retailers with past due balances or other indications of heightened credit risk. The allowance for credit losses related to floor plan receivables was not material as of December 30, 2023. Loans are considered past due if any required interest or curtailment payment remains unpaid 30 days after the due date. Receivables are placed on non-performing status if any interest or installment payments are past due over 90 days. Loans are placed on nonaccrual status when interest payments are past due over 90 days. At December 30, 2023, there were no floor plan receivables on nonaccrual status and the weighted-average age of the floor plan receivables was eight months.

Skyline Champion Corporation

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements - Continued

 

Interest income from floor plan receivables is recognized on an accrual basis and is included in Interest Income in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Income Statements. Interest income from floor plan receivables for the three and nine months ended December 30, 2023 was $0.3 million and $0.9 million, respectively. There were no floor plan receivables as of December 31, 2022 or related interest income for the three and nine months then ended.

Recently issued accounting pronouncements: 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 annual periods beginning after December 15, 2023 (fiscal 2025). We are assessing the effect of this update on our consolidated financial statements and related 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 both in the U.S. and foreign jurisdictions. 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 statements and related disclosures.

 

2. Business Combinations

Regional Homes Acquisition

On October 13, 2023, the Company acquired all of the outstanding equity interests in Regional Enterprises, LLC and related companies (collectively, "Regional Homes") for total purchase consideration of $350.9 million, net of assumed indebtedness and preliminary working capital adjustments. The purchase consideration consisted of cash of $317.2 million, the issuance of 455,098 shares of common stock equal to approximately $27.9 million, and contingent consideration with an estimated fair value of $5.9 million. The contingent consideration is related to an earnout provision in the event certain conditions are met per the terms of the purchase agreement, with a maximum earnout amount of $25.0 million. The initial fair value of the earnout was established using a Monte Carlo simulation method and the resulting liability is recorded in Other Liabilities in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. Subsequent to the acquisition date, the Company adjusted the preliminary purchase price by $5.0 million pursuant to the working capital provisions included within the purchase agreement. The Company accounted for the acquisition as a business combination under the acquisition method of accounting provided by FASB ASC 805, Business Combinations ("ASC 805"). As such, the purchase price was allocated to the net assets acquired, inclusive of intangible assets, with the excess fair value recorded to goodwill. The purchase price allocation is based upon preliminary valuation information available to determine the fair value of certain assets and liabilities, including goodwill, and is subject to change as additional information is obtained about the facts and circumstances that existed at the valuation date. The Company expects to finalize the fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed during the one-year measurement period.

Goodwill, which is deductible for income tax purposes, is primarily attributable to expected synergies from the combination of companies and was allocated to reporting units within the Company's U.S. Factory-built Housing segment, which includes its U.S. manufacturing and retail operations.

 

Cash, trade accounts receivable, other assets, floor plan and accounts payable, long-term debt and other liabilities are generally stated at historical carrying values as they approximate fair value. Retail inventories are reflected at manufacturer wholesale prices. Intangible assets include $16.9 million in customer relationships and $24.9 million in trade names and are based on an independent appraisal. The fair value of customer relationships was determined using the multi-period excess earnings method and fair value of the trade name was determined using the relief-from-royalty method. The Company estimates that each intangible asset has a weighted average useful life of ten years from the acquisition date. Fair value estimates of property, plant, and equipment were based on independent appraisals, giving consideration to the highest and best use of the assets. Key assumptions used in the appraisals were drawn from a combination of market, cost, and sales comparison approaches, as appropriate. Level 3 fair value estimates of $86.2 million related to property, plant, and equipment and $41.8 million related to intangible assets were recorded in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet as of the acquisition date. For further information on acquired assets measured at fair value, see Note 5, Goodwill and Intangible Assets.

 

The acquisition of Regional Homes was a taxable business combination. Therefore, the Company’s tax basis in the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed approximate the respective fair values at the acquisition date.

 

The Company's consolidated net sales and net income for the three and nine months ended December 30, 2023 included $119.7 million and $5.7 million, respectively, from Regional Homes. The following unaudited pro forma information presents a summary of the operating results as if the acquisition of Regional Homes had been completed on April 3, 2022, which is the beginning of the comparable annual reporting period:

The pro forma results for the three and nine months ended December 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 reflect amortization of intangible assets, depreciation of property, plant and equipment, reduction of interest expense to reflect the new capital structure, elimination of sales between the Company and Regional Homes, the impact of the fair value step up of Regional Homes' inventory, and the tax effects of the related adjustments. The unaudited pro forma financial information has been prepared for comparative purposes only and it is not necessarily indicative of the results of operations as they would have been had the acquisition occurred on the assumed date, nor is it necessarily an indication of future operating results.

 

Other Acquisitions

 

In May 2022, the Company acquired certain operating assets from Manis Custom Builders, Inc. ("Manis"). In July 2022, the Company acquired 12 Factory Expo retail sales centers from Alta Cima Corporation. The purchase price and net assets acquired for both transactions were not material to the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements.

4. Property, Plant, and Equipment

Property, plant, and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation is calculated primarily on a straight-line basis, generally over the following estimated useful lives: land improvements – 3 to 10 years; buildings and improvements – 8 to 25 years; and vehicles and machinery and equipment – 3 to 8 years. Depreciation expense for the three months ended December 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 was $6.9 million and $3.8 million, respectively. Depreciation expense for the nine months ended December 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 was $16.2 million and $11.7 million, respectively.

Cloud Computing Arrangements

The Company capitalizes costs associated with the development of cloud computing arrangements in a manner consistent with internally developed software. At December 30, 2023 and April 1, 2023, the Company had capitalized cloud computing costs, net of amortization of $25.9 million and $25.0 million, respectively. Cloud computing costs are included in other noncurrent assets in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. Amortization of capitalized cloud computing costs for the three and nine months ended December 30, 2023 was $0.3 million and $0.7 million, respectively. Amortization of capitalized cloud computing costs for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2022 was $0.2 million and $0.6 million, respectively.

 

6. Investment in ECN Capital Corporation

In September 2023, the Company entered into a share subscription agreement with ECN Capital Corp. ("ECN") and made a $137.8 million equity investment in ECN on a private placement basis. The Company purchased 33.6 million common shares, representing approximately 12% of the total outstanding common shares of ECN, and 27.5 million mandatory convertible preferred shares (the “Preferred Shares”). The Preferred Shares receive cumulative cash dividends at an annual rate of 4.0%. Following the private placement, the Company owns approximately 19.9% of the voting shares of ECN.

The Company's interest in the common stock investment in ECN is accounted for under the equity method and the Company’s share of the earnings or losses of ECN are recorded on a three-month lag. For the three and nine months ended December 30, 2023, the Company's share of ECN's losses of $0.2 million are reflected in Other expense (income) in the accompanying condensed consolidated income statements. There were no earnings or losses recognized related to the equity method investment for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2022. At December 30, 2023, the investment in the common stock of ECN totaled $78.7 million, including $3.1 million of capitalized transaction costs, and is included in Other Noncurrent Assets in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

The Company's investment in the Preferred Shares is included in Other Noncurrent Assets in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. The investment is measured using the measurement alternative for equity investments without a readily determinable fair value. The carrying amount of $65.1 million at December 30, 2023 represents the purchase price, capitalized transaction costs of $2.5 million and accrued dividends. There have been no adjustments to the carrying amount or impairment of the investment. For the three and nine months ended December 30, 2023, the Company has reflected dividend income of $0.6 million in Other expense (income) on the accompanying condensed consolidated income statements from the dividend income on the investment in ECN Preferred Shares. There was no dividend income from the ECN Preferred Shares for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2022.

Amounts due to ECN, a related party, were not material at December 30, 2023. ECN, through its wholly-owned subsidiary Triad Financial Services ("Triad"), provides loan servicing for the Company's floor plan receivables, for which we pay a fee that was immaterial for the period subsequent to the investment in ECN. Triad also provides floor plan financing of the Company's products to independent retailers. At December 30, 2023, the Company had repurchase commitments of $61.8 million on retailer floor plan loans outstanding with Triad.

On July 7, 2021, the Company entered into an Amended and Restated Credit Agreement with a syndicate of banks that provides for a revolving credit facility of up to $200.0 million, including a $45.0 million letter of credit sub-facility ("Amended Credit Agreement"). The Amended Credit Agreement replaced the Company's previously existing $100.0 million revolving credit facility. The Amended Credit Agreement allows the Company to draw down, repay and re-draw loans on the available facility during the term, subject to certain terms and conditions, matures in July 2026, and has no scheduled amortization.

On May 18, 2023, the Company further amended the Amended Credit Agreement, which removed references to the London Interbank Offer Rate ("LIBOR") and clarified language pertaining to the Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR") in regards to the interest rate on borrowings. The interest rate on borrowings under the Amended Credit Agreement is based on SOFR plus a SOFR adjustment, plus an interest rate spread. The interest rate spread adjusts based on the consolidated total net leverage of the Company from a high of 1.875% when the consolidated total net leverage ratio is equal to or greater than 2.25:1.00, to a low of 1.125% when the consolidated total net leverage ratio is below 0.50:1.00. Alternatively for same day borrowings, the interest rate is based on an Alternative Base Rate ("ABR") plus an interest rate spread that ranges from a high of 0.875% to a low of 0.125% based on the consolidated total net leverage ratio. In addition, the Company is

Skyline Champion Corporation

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements - Continued

 

obligated to pay an unused line fee ranging between 0.15% and 0.3% depending on the consolidated total net leverage ratio, in respect of unused commitments under the Amended Credit Agreement. At December 30, 2023 the interest rate under the Amended Credit Agreement was 6.58% and letters of credit issued under the Amended Credit Agreement totaled $34.0 million. Available borrowing capacity under the Amended Credit Agreement as of December 30, 2023 was $166.0 million.

Obligations under industrial revenue bonds are supported by letters of credit and bear interest based on a municipal bond index rate. The weighted-average interest rate at December 30, 2023, including related costs and fees, was 5.48%. The industrial revenue bonds require lump-sum payments of principal upon maturity in 2029 and are secured by the assets of certain manufacturing facilities.

As part of the acquisition of Regional Homes, the Company assumed notes payable to Romeo Juliet, LLC, a subsidiary of Wells Fargo Community Investment Holdings, Inc. ("WFC"). The weighted-average interest rate on those notes at December 30, 2023 was 5.4%. The notes are secured by certain assets of Regional Homes. In addition, the Company assumed a note payable to United Bank with an interest rate of 3.85% that is secured by a Note Receivable from HHB Investment Fund, LLC, a subsidiary of Wells Fargo Community Investment Holdings, Inc. (“WFC”).

 

The Amended Credit Agreement contains covenants that restrict the amount of additional debt, liens and certain payments, including equity buybacks, investments, dispositions, mergers and consolidations, among other restrictions as defined. The Company was in compliance with all covenants of the Amended Credit Agreement as of December 30, 2023.

 

Floor Plan Payable

 

The Company’s retail operations utilize floor plan financing to fund the purchase of manufactured homes for display or resale. At December 30, 2023, the Company had outstanding borrowings on floor plan financing agreements of $80.4 million. Total credit line capacity provided under the agreements was $248.0 million as of December 30, 2023. Borrowings are secured by the homes and are required to be repaid when the Company sells the related home to a customer. There were no floor plan borrowings at April 1, 2023.

11. Income Taxes

For the three months ended December 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company recorded $12.8 million and $24.9 million of income tax expense and had an effective tax rate of 21.4% and 23.1%, respectively. For the nine months ended December 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company recorded $44.8 million and $113.4 million of income tax expense and had an effective tax rate of 23.7% and 24.8%, respectively.

The Company’s effective tax rate for the three and nine months ended December 30, 2023 differs from the federal statutory income tax rate of 21.0% due primarily to the effect of state and local income taxes, non-deductible expenses, tax credits, and results in foreign jurisdictions. The Company’s effective tax rate for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2022 differs from the federal statutory income tax rate of 21.0% due primarily to the effect of state and local income taxes, non-deductible expenses, tax credits, and results in foreign jurisdictions.

13. Segment Information

Financial results for the Company's reportable segments have been prepared using a management approach, which is consistent with the basis and manner in which financial information is evaluated by the Company's chief operating decision maker in allocating resources and in assessing performance. The Company’s chief operating decision maker, the Chief Executive Officer, evaluates the performance of the Company’s segments primarily based on net sales, before elimination of inter-company shipments, earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (“EBITDA”) and operating assets.

The Company operates in two reportable segments: (i) U.S. Factory-built Housing, which includes manufacturing and retail housing operations and (ii) Canadian Factory-built Housing. Corporate/Other includes the Company’s transportation operations, corporate costs directly incurred for all segments and intersegment eliminations. Segments are generally determined by geography. Segment data includes intersegment revenues and corporate office costs that are directly and exclusively incurred for each segment. Total assets for Corporate/Other primarily include cash and certain U.S. deferred tax items not specifically allocated to another segment.

14. Commitments, Contingencies, and Legal Proceedings

Repurchase Contingencies and Guarantees

The Company is contingently liable under terms of repurchase agreements with lending institutions that provide wholesale floor plan financing to retailers. These arrangements, which are customary in the manufactured housing industry, provide for the repurchase of products sold to retailers in the event of default by the retailer on its agreement to pay the financial institution. The risk of loss from these agreements is significantly reduced by the potential resale value of any products that are subject to repurchase and is spread over numerous retailers. The repurchase price is generally determined by the original sales price of the product less contractually defined curtailment payments. Based on these repurchase agreements and our historical loss experience, we established an associated loss reserve which was $1.9 million and $2.5 million at December 30, 2023 and April 1, 2023, respectively. Excluding the resale value of the homes, the contingent repurchase obligation as of December 30, 2023 was estimated to be $286.6 million. Losses incurred on homes repurchased were immaterial during the three and nine months ended December 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022.

Skyline Champion Corporation

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements - Continued

 

At December 30, 2023, the Company was contingently obligated for $34.0 million under letters of credit, consisting of $12.6 million to support long-term debt, $21.1 million to support the casualty insurance program, and $0.3 million to support bonding agreements. The letters of credit are issued from a sub-facility of the Amended Credit Agreement. The Company was also contingently obligated for $32.8 million under surety bonds, generally to support performance on long-term construction contracts and license and service bonding requirements.

The Company has received claims for damage related to water intrusion in homes built in one of its manufacturing facilities. The Company is investigating the cause of the damage and assessing its responsibility to remediate. While it is reasonably possible that the Company will receive future claims that could result in additional costs to repair that could be significant in the aggregate, the Company is unable to estimate the number of such claims or the amount or range of any potential losses associated with such claims at this time.

In the normal course of business, the Company’s former subsidiaries that operated in the United Kingdom historically provided certain guarantees to two customers. Those guarantees provide contractual liability for proven construction defects up to 12 years from the date of delivery of certain products. The guarantees remain a contingent liability of the Company which declines over time through October 2027. As of the date of this report, the Company expects few, if any, claims to be reported under the terms of the guarantees.

Legal Proceedings

The Company has agreed to indemnify counterparties in the ordinary course of its business in agreements to acquire and sell business assets and in financing arrangements. The Company is subject to various legal proceedings and claims that arise in the ordinary course of its business. As of the date of this filing, the Company believes the ultimate liability with respect to these contingent obligations will not have, either individually or in the aggregate, a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows.

Item 2. MANAGEMENT’ S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following should be read in conjunction with Skyline Champion Corporation’s condensed consolidated financial statements and the related notes that appear in Item 1 of this Report.

Overview

Skyline Champion Corporation (the “Company”) is a leading producer of factory-built housing in the U.S. and Canada. The Company serves as a complete solutions provider across complementary and vertically integrated businesses including factory-built home manufacturing, company-owned retail locations, construction services, and transportation logistics services. The Company markets its homes under several nationally recognized brand names including Skyline Homes, Champion Home Builders, Genesis Homes, Regional Homes, Athens Park Models, Dutch Housing, Atlantic Homes, Excel Homes, Homes of Merit, New Era, Redman Homes, ScotBilt Homes, Shore Park, Silvercrest, and Titan Homes in the U.S., and Moduline and SRI Homes in western Canada. The Company operates 43 manufacturing facilities throughout the U.S. and five manufacturing facilities in western Canada that primarily construct factory-built, timber-framed, manufactured and modular houses that are sold primarily to independent retailers, builders/developers, and manufactured home community operators. The Company’s retail operations consist of 73 sales centers that sell manufactured homes to consumers across the U.S. The Company’s transportation business engages independent owners/drivers to transport manufactured homes, recreational vehicles, and other products throughout the U.S. and Canada.

Acquisitions and Expansions

Over the last several years, demand for affordable housing in the U.S. has increased. As a result, the Company focused on operational improvements to increase capacity utilization and profitability at its existing manufacturing facilities as well as executed measured expansion of its manufacturing and retail footprint through facility and equipment investments and acquisitions. During fiscal 2023, robust demand began to slow as inflation and higher interest rates made housing less affordable. Even though demand in the housing markets has returned to more normal levels recently, the Company continues to focus on growing in strong housing markets across the U.S. and Canada, as well as expanding products and services to provide more holistic solutions to homebuyers.

In October 2023, the Company acquired Regional Homes, which operates three manufacturing facilities in Alabama and 43 retail sales centers across the Southeast U.S. Regional's strong presence in large HUD markets in the Southeast U.S. greatly expanded our captive retail and manufacturing distribution in the region. In July 2022, the Company acquired 12 Factory Expo retail sales centers from Alta Cima Corporation, which expanded the internal retail network across a broader portion of the U.S. In May 2022, the Company acquired Manis Custom Builders, Inc. ("Manis") in order to expand its manufacturing footprint and further streamline its product offering in the Southeast U.S. In February 2021, the Company acquired ScotBilt Homes, LLC and related companies (collectively, "Scotbilt"), which operated two manufacturing facilities in Georgia providing affordable housing throughout Alabama, Florida, Georgia and the Carolinas. The ScotBilt acquisition complemented the Company’s prior manufacturing footprint in the attractive mid-south region.

In addition to those acquisitions, the Company is also focused on growing its U.S. manufacturing production capacity through various plant start-ups. The Company began production in a previously idled facility in Decatur, Indiana in the first quarter of fiscal 2024. In January 2021, the Company acquired two idle facilities in Pembroke, North Carolina, one of which began production in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023. In June 2021, the Company acquired two idle facilities in Navasota, Texas and began production at one of those facilities during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022. The Company opened a previously idled facility in Bartow, Florida, which began production in the third quarter of fiscal 2024.

In September 2023, the Company entered into a share subscription agreement with ECN Capital Corp. ("ECN") in which the Company made a $137.8 million equity investment in ECN on a private placement basis to purchase 33.6 million common shares, representing approximately 12% of the total outstanding common shares of ECN, and 27.5 million mandatory convertible preferred shares. Following the private placement, the Company owns approximately 19.9% interest in ECN. In conjunction with the investment, the Company and ECN entered into a joint venture agreement to develop a captive finance company which allows us to leverage ECN's knowledge and systems to develop tailored dealer floor plan and retail consumer lending products which will facilitate further growth.

The Company's acquisitions and investments are part of a strategy to grow and diversify revenue with a focus on increasing the Company’s home building presence in the U.S. as well as improving the results of operations through streamlining production of similar product categories. These acquisitions and investments are included in the Company's consolidated results for periods subsequent to their respective acquisition dates.

Industry and Company Outlook

 

Since July 2020, the U.S. and Canadian housing industry demand has generally been robust. The limited availability of existing homes for sale and the broader need for newly built affordable, single-family housing has driven demand for new homes in those markets. In recent

 

17


 

years, manufactured home construction experienced revenue growth due to a number of favorable demographic trends and demand drivers in the U.S., including underlying growth trends in key homebuyer groups, such as the population over 55 years of age, the population of first-time homebuyers, and the population of households earning less than $60,000 per year. More recently, we have seen a number of market trends pointing to increased sales of accessory dwelling units ("ADUs") and urban-to-rural migration as customers accommodate working-from-home patterns, as well as people seeking rent-to-own single-family options.

The rise in interest rates in response to inflation have impacted the demand for the Company's products in both the U.S. and Canada. In addition, many of our community customers have reduced order rates in response to excess inventory in their sales channels. As a result, the Company's backlog was $290.4 million as of December 30, 2023 compared to $532.0 million as of December 31, 2022.

For the nine months ended December 30, 2023, approximately 88% of the Company’s U.S. manufacturing sales were generated from the manufacture of homes that comply with the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development ("HUD") code construction standard in the U.S. Industry shipments of HUD-code homes are reported on a one-month lag. According to data reported by the Manufactured Housing Institute, HUD-code industry home shipments were 61,622 and 76,802 units during the eight months ended November 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Based on industry data, the Company’s U.S. wholesale market share of HUD code homes sold was 18.9% and 20.9%, for the eight months ended November 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Annual HUD-code industry shipments have generally increased since calendar year 2009 when only 50,000 HUD-coded manufactured homes were shipped, the lowest level since the industry began recording statistics in 1959. While shipments of HUD-coded manufactured homes have improved modestly in recent years, manufactured housing’s most recent annual shipment levels still operate at lower levels than the long-term historical average of over 200,000 units annually. Manufactured home sales represent approximately 11% of all of U.S. single family home starts. Our market share in the U.S. total housing market was approximately 2.0% for the twelve months ended December 30, 2023.

Net sales for the three months ended December 30, 2023 were $559.5 million, a decrease of $22.9 million, or 3.9%, compared to the three months ended December 31, 2022. The following is a summary of the change by operating segment.

U.S. Factory-built Housing:

Net sales for the Company’s U.S. manufacturing and retail operations decreased by $20.7 million, or 3.8%, for the three months ended December 30, 2023 compared to the three months ended December 31, 2022. The decrease was primarily due to a 1.8% decrease in the number of homes sold during the period, as well as a 2.0% decrease in the average home selling price. The decrease in the number of homes sold was due to lower customer demand and production volumes compared to the prior year, partially offset by the addition of $119.7 million of net sales from the Regional Homes acquisition. The decrease in average selling price was due to the decrease in material surcharges and changes in product mix, including customers choosing smaller homes with fewer or lower cost options. The decline in average selling price per home was partially offset by the increase in the number of units sold through our company-owned retail sales centers. The mix of wholesale unit sales versus homes sold through our company-owned stores impacts average selling price per home.

Canadian Factory-built Housing:

The Canadian Factory-built Housing segment net sales decreased by $0.5 million, or 1.7% for the three months ended December 30, 2023 compared to the same period in the prior fiscal year, primarily due to a 8.8% decrease in homes sold partially offset by a 7.8% increase in average home selling price. The increase in average home selling price was due to a change in product mix. The decrease in homes sold is due to slowing demand. On a constant currency basis, net sales for the Canadian segment were unfavorably impacted by approximately $0.1 million due to fluctuations in the translation of the Canadian dollar to the U.S. dollar during the three months ended December 30, 2023 as compared to the same period of the prior fiscal year.

Corporate/Other:

Net sales for Corporate/Other includes the Company’s transportation business and the elimination of intersegment sales. For the three months ended December 30, 2023, net sales decreased $1.6 million, or 17.7%, primarily attributable to the decrease in recreational vehicle shipments.

Gross profit as a percent of sales during the three months ended December 30, 2023 was 25.3% compared to 29.9% during the three months ended December 31, 2022. The following is a summary of the change by operating segment.

U.S. Factory-built Housing:

Gross profit for the U.S. Factory-built Housing segment decreased by $34.0 million, or 21.0%, during the three months ended December 30, 2023 compared to the same period in the prior fiscal year. Gross profit was 24.6% as a percent of segment net sales for the three months ended December 30, 2023 compared to 29.9% in the same period of the prior fiscal year. The decrease in gross profit as a percent of segment net sales is being driven by lower product prices and changes in product mix, including the impact of the Regional Homes acquisition. Regional Homes' core product margins are generally lower than the legacy Skyline Champion U.S. operations’ gross margins. In addition, Regional Homes’ margins were negatively impacted by the effect of purchase accounting increases to the carrying value of inventory that was acquired in the acquisition.

Canadian Factory-built Housing:

Gross profit for the Canadian Factory-built Housing segment increased by $0.6 million, or 7.0%, during the three months ended December 30, 2023 compared to the same period in the prior fiscal year. The increase in gross profit is primarily due to higher average selling prices, partially offset by lower sales volumes. Gross profit as a percent of net sales was 29.4% for the three months ended December 30, 2023, compared to 27.0% in the same period of the prior year, primarily the result of higher average selling prices.

Corporate/Other:

Gross profit for the Corporate/Other segment increased $0.6 million, or 17.9%, during the three months ended December 30, 2023 compared to the same period of the prior fiscal year.

U.S. Factory-built Housing:

Selling, general, and administrative expenses for the U.S. Factory-built Housing segment increased $12.5 million, or 23.6%, during the three months ended December 30, 2023 as compared to the same period in the prior fiscal year. Selling, general, and administrative expenses, as a percent of segment net sales increased to 12.5% for the three months ended December 30, 2023 compared to 9.7% during the comparable period of the prior fiscal year primarily due to lower sales volume in relation to certain fixed costs and the inclusion of the Regional Homes acquisition. Company-owned retail sales centers generally incur a higher rate of selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of sales than our manufacturing operations. The increase in SG&A from the Regional Homes acquisition was partially offset by lower sales commissions and incentive compensation from our legacy Skyline Champion U.S. operations, which is generally based on sales volume or a measure of profitability.

Canadian Factory-built Housing:

Selling, general, and administrative expenses for the Canadian Factory-built Housing segment increased $0.1 million, or 3.8%, for the three months ended December 30, 2023 when compared to the same period of the prior fiscal year. Selling, general, and administrative expenses as a percent of segment net sales increased to 9.6% for the three months ended December 30, 2023 compared to 9.1% during the comparable period of the prior fiscal year due to less absorption of fixed costs caused by lower sales.

Corporate/Other:

Selling, general, and administrative expenses for Corporate/Other includes the Company’s transportation operations, corporate costs incurred for all segments, and intersegment eliminations. Selling, general, and administrative expenses for Corporate/Other increased $0.7 million, or 4.2%, during the three months ended December 30, 2023 as compared to the same period of the prior fiscal year due primarily to higher stock-based compensation expense.

Interest income, net was $4.3 million for the three months ended December 30, 2023, compared to $5.4 million in the same period of the prior fiscal year. The change was primarily due to lower interest income from lower average invested cash balances, and higher average balances of floor plan payables and long-term debt assumed in the acquisition of Regional Homes.

Adjusted EBITDA for the three months ended December 30, 2023 was $66.3 million, a decrease of $42.8 million from the same period of the prior fiscal year. The decrease is primarily a result of lower operating income due to decreases in sales volume, average selling prices and gross margins, as well as higher SG&A expenses, offset by additional Adjusted EBITDA from the Regional Homes acquisition.

Net sales for the nine months ended December 30, 2023 were $1,488.5 million, a decrease of $626.6 million, or 29.6%, compared to the nine months ended December 31, 2022. The following is a summary of the change by operating segment.

U.S. Factory-built Housing:

Net sales for the Company’s U.S. manufacturing and retail operations decreased by $579.1 million, or 29.6%, for the nine months ended December 30, 2023 compared to the nine months ended December 31, 2022. The decrease was primarily due to a 22.9% decrease in the number of homes sold during the period, as well as an 8.7% decrease in the average home selling price. The decrease in the number of homes

 

23


 

sold was due to the lack of disaster relief housing sales to FEMA in fiscal 2024, lower customer demand and lower production volume compared to the prior year, partially offset by the addition of Regional Homes in the third quarter of fiscal 2024. The average selling price decrease was due, in part, to the impact of disaster relief housing sales of $200.3 million to FEMA in the first half of fiscal 2023, as well as customers choosing smaller homes with fewer or lower cost options and a reduction in material surcharges. FEMA units generally have more specifications than our typical products and therefore drive a higher average selling price per home. The decline in sales was partially offset by sales from the start-up of new plants and the addition of Regional Homes which contributed $119.7 million in net sales for the nine months ended December 30, 2023.

Canadian Factory-built Housing:

The Canadian Factory-built Housing segment net sales decreased by $29.4 million, or 25.5% for the nine months ended December 30, 2023 compared to the same period in the prior fiscal year, primarily due to a 24.4% decrease in homes sold and a 1.4% decrease in average home selling price. The decrease in homes sold is due to slowing demand. On a constant currency basis, net sales for the Canadian segment were unfavorably impacted by approximately $3.0 million due to fluctuations in the translation of the Canadian dollar to the U.S. dollar during the nine months ended December 30, 2023 as compared to the same period of the prior fiscal year.

Corporate/Other:

Net sales for Corporate/Other includes the Company’s transportation business and the elimination of intersegment sales. For the nine months ended December 30, 2023, net sales decreased $18.0 million, or 42.7%, primarily attributable to the decrease in recreational vehicle shipments.

U.S. Factory-built Housing:

Gross profit for the U.S. Factory-built Housing segment decreased by $276.9 million, or 44.1%, during the nine months ended December 30, 2023 compared to the same period in the prior fiscal year. Gross profit was 25.5% as a percent of segment net sales for the nine months ended December 30, 2023 compared to 32.1% in the same period of the prior fiscal year. The decrease in gross profit as a percent of segment net sales is being driven by lower unit volume and changes in product mix, including the decrease in FEMA sales which are generally at higher prices than our core products, and the impact of Regional Homes' sales which are generally at a lower gross margin than the legacy Skyline Champion business.

Canadian Factory-built Housing:

Gross profit for the Canadian Factory-built Housing segment decreased by $12.3 million, or 33.9% during the nine months ended December 30, 2023 compared to the same period in the prior fiscal year. The decrease in gross profit is primarily due to lower sales volumes. Gross profit as a percent of net sales was 28.0% for the nine months ended December 30, 2023, compared to 31.5% in the same period of the prior year, primarily the result of decreased leverage of fixed manufacturing costs.

U.S. Factory-built Housing:

Selling, general, and administrative expenses for the U.S. Factory-built Housing segment decreased $6.4 million, or 3.8%, during the nine months ended December 30, 2023 as compared to the same period in the prior fiscal year. Selling, general, and administrative expenses, as a percent of segment net sales increased to 11.8% for the nine months ended December 30, 2023 compared to 8.7% during the comparable period of the prior fiscal year primarily due to lower sales volume in relation to certain fixed costs, additional costs related to the investment in new plant operations, and the acquisitions of Regional Homes and Factory Expo. Generally, selling, general and administrative expenses at our company-owned retail sales centers are at a higher percent of sales than our manufacturing operations. The overall decrease in selling, general, and administrative expenses primarily resulted from lower commission and incentive compensation which is generally based on sales volume or a measure of profitability, partially offset by selling, general, and administrative expenses from the acquisition of Regional Homes.

Canadian Factory-built Housing:

Selling, general, and administrative expenses for the Canadian Factory-built Housing segment decreased $1.8 million, or 18.0%, for the nine months ended December 30, 2023 when compared to the same period of the prior fiscal year. Selling, general, and administrative expenses as a percent of segment net sales increased to 9.5% for the nine months ended December 30, 2023 compared to 8.6% during the comparable period of the prior fiscal year due to less absorption of fixed costs caused by lower sales. The decrease in selling, general, and administrative expenses is due primarily to a reduction in incentive compensation which is based on sales volume or profitability.

Corporate/Other:

Selling, general, and administrative expenses for Corporate/Other includes the Company’s transportation operations, corporate costs incurred for all segments, and intersegment eliminations. Selling, general, and administrative expenses for Corporate/Other increased $0.2 million, or 0.4%, during the nine months ended December 30, 2023 as compared to the same period of the prior fiscal year due primarily to higher stock-based compensation expense.

Interest income, net was $24.1 million for the nine months ended December 30, 2023, compared to $7.3 million in the same period of the prior fiscal year. The change was primarily due to higher interest income from higher average invested cash balances, prior to the acquisition of Regional Homes, and higher interest rates earned on invested cash.

Other expense of $2.8 million for the nine months ended December 30, 2023 represents transaction costs incurred for the acquisition of Regional Homes of $3.3 million and a loss on the equity method investment in ECN of $0.2 million, partially offset by dividend income of $0.6 million from the investment in ECN Preferred Shares. Other income of $0.6 million for the nine months ended December 31, 2022 was a result of insurance proceeds for partial settlement of certain Champion Home Builders’ pre-bankruptcy workers compensation claims, which was partially offset by transaction costs incurred for the acquisition of Manis.

Adjusted EBITDA for the nine months ended December 30, 2023 was $191.9 million, a decrease of $277.0 million from the same period of the prior fiscal year. The decrease is primarily a result of lower operating income due to decreases in sales volume, average selling prices and gross margins, partially offset by lower SG&A expenses and the incremental operating income generated by Regional Homes for the period after the acquisition.

The Company defines Adjusted EBITDA as net income or loss plus expense or minus income: (a) the provision for income taxes; (b) interest (income) expense, net; (c) depreciation and amortization; (d) gain or loss from discontinued operations; (e) non-cash restructuring charges and impairment of assets; and (f) other non-operating income and costs, including but not limited to those costs for the acquisition and integration or disposition of businesses and idle facilities. Adjusted EBITDA is not a measure of earnings calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP, and should not be considered an alternative to, or more meaningful than, net income or loss, net sales, operating income or earnings per share prepared on a U.S. GAAP basis. Adjusted EBITDA does not purport to represent cash flow provided by, or used in, operating activities as defined by U.S. GAAP, which is presented in the Statement of Cash Flows. In addition, Adjusted EBITDA is not necessarily comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

Adjusted EBITDA is presented as a supplemental measure of the Company’s financial performance that management believes is useful to investors, because the excluded items may vary significantly in timing or amounts and/or may obscure trends useful in evaluating and comparing the Company’s operating activities across reporting periods. Management believes Adjusted EBITDA is useful to an investor in evaluating operating performance for the following reasons: (i) Adjusted EBITDA is widely used by investors to measure a company’s operating performance without regard to items such as interest income and expense, taxes, depreciation and amortization and equity-based compensation, which can vary substantially from company to company depending upon accounting methods and the book value of assets, capital structure and the method by which assets were acquired; and (ii) analysts and investors use Adjusted EBITDA as a supplemental measure to evaluate the overall operating performance of companies in the industry.

Management uses Adjusted EBITDA for planning purposes, including the preparation of internal annual operating budget and periodic forecasts: (i) in communications with the Board of Directors and investors concerning financial performance; (ii) as a factor in determining bonuses under certain incentive compensation programs; and (iii) as a measure of operating performance used to determine the ability to provide cash flows to support investments in capital assets, acquisitions and working capital requirements for operating expansion.

BACKLOG

Although orders from customers can be canceled at any time without penalty, and unfilled orders are not necessarily an indication of future business, the Company’s unfilled U.S. and Canadian manufacturing orders at December 30, 2023 totaled $290.4 million compared to $532.0 million at December 31, 2022. The decrease in backlog is due to the reduction in overall housing demand. In addition, many of our community customers have reduced order rates in response to excess inventory in their sales channels.

The Company’s primary sources of liquidity are cash flows from operations and existing cash balances. Cash balances and cash flows from operations for the next year are expected to be adequate to cover working capital requirements, capital expenditures, and strategic initiatives and investments. The Company has an Amended Credit Agreement which provides for a $200.0 million revolving credit facility, including a $45.0 million letter of credit sub-facility. At December 30, 2023, $166.0 million was available for borrowing under the Amended Credit Agreement. The Company’s revolving credit facility includes (i) a maximum consolidated total net leverage ratio of 3.25 to 1.00, subject to an upward adjustment upon the consummation of a material acquisition, and (ii) a minimum interest coverage ratio of 3.00 to 1.00. The Company anticipates compliance with its debt covenants and projects its level of cash availability to be in excess of cash needed to operate the business for the next year and beyond. In the event operating cash flow and existing cash balances were deemed inadequate to support the Company’s liquidity needs, and one or more capital resources were to become unavailable, the Company would revise its operating strategies.

Cash provided by operating activities was $218.6 million for the nine months ended December 30, 2023 compared to $364.0 million for the nine months ended December 31, 2022. The decrease was primarily driven by lower net income in fiscal 2024, partially offset by more favorable changes in working capital items during the first nine months of fiscal 2024 as compared to the same period of the prior year.

Cash used in investing activities was $474.4 million for the nine months ended December 30, 2023 compared to $44.8 million for the nine months ended December 31, 2022. The increase in cash used for investing activities was related to the Company's acquisition of Regional Homes for $284.6 million, net of cash acquired, and the Company's investment in ECN common and preferred stock of $143.4 million in fiscal 2024.

Cash provided by financing activities was $3.9 million for the nine months ended December 30, 2023 compared to cash used in financing activities of $36.2 million for the nine months ended December 31, 2022. The change in cash between periods was primarily due to net repayments on floor plan financing facilities in fiscal 2023 compared to net borrowing of $2.3 million in fiscal 2024.

These statements reflect management’s current views with respect to future events and are subject to risks and uncertainties. There are risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond our control, that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those in our forward-looking statements, including regional, national and international economic, financial, public health and labor conditions, and the following:

supply-related issues, including prices and availability of materials;
labor-related issues;
inflationary pressures in the North American economy;
the cyclicality and seasonality of the housing industry and its sensitivity to changes in general economic or other business conditions;

Item 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

 

For a discussion of the Company’s interest rate and foreign exchange risks, see Part II, Item 7A of the Fiscal 2023 Annual Report, under the heading "Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk." There have been no significant changes in such risks since April 1, 2023.

Item 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures

The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the specified time periods and accumulated and communicated to management, including the principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

The Company’s management, with the participation of the CEO and CFO, evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rule 13a-15(e) of the Exchange Act at December 30, 2023. Based upon this evaluation, the CEO and CFO concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of December 30, 2023.

Changes in internal control over financial reporting

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the fiscal quarter to which this report relates that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. In October 2023, we completed the acquisition of Regional Homes and are currently integrating Regional Homes into our operations, compliance programs and internal control processes. Regional Homes constituted approximately 26% of our total assets as of December 30, 2023, including the goodwill and intangible assets recorded as part of the purchase price allocation and approximately 8% of our net sales for the nine months ended December 30, 2023. United States Securities and Exchange Commission guidance allows companies to exclude acquisitions from their assessment of the internal control over financial reporting during the first year following an acquisition while integrating the acquired company. We have excluded the acquired operations of Regional Homes from our assessment of the Company's internal control over financial reporting.
