Arizona Tribune - Nobility Homes, Inc. Announces Sales and Earnings for its Second Quarter 2026

For the first six months of fiscal 2026, sales were $22.9 million as compared to $27.0 million for the six months of 2025. Income from operations for the six months of 2026 was $3.9 million versus $5.0 in the same period last year. Net income after taxes was $3.4 million versus last year's results of $4.3 million. Earnings per share for the six months were $1.06 per share compared to $1.31 (diluted $1.30) per share last year.

Nobility's financial position during the second quarter of 2026 remains strong with cash and cash equivalents, certificates of deposit and short-term investments of $24.2 million and no outstanding debt. Working capital is $42.6 million and our ratio of current assets to current liabilities is 7.1:1. Stockholders' equity is $56.5 million and the book value per share of common stock is $17.92.

Terry Trexler, President, stated, "Total net sales decreased during the first six months of 2026 as compared to same period in 2025 due to a decrease in the number of new retail homes sold in our Company owned retail sales centers (93 homes versus 132 homes) partially offset by an increase in the number of homes sold to independent dealers (121 homes versus 92 homes) which have lower margins.

We believe customers continue to delay or postpone home purchases, due to higher interest rates and ongoing economic uncertainty which are negatively affecting sales. We also continue to experience delays in receiving key production materials from suppliers, along with back orders, price increases, tariffs, and labor shortages, all of which are slowing home completion at our manufacturing facility. In addition, ongoing inflation across a range of building products is contributing to higher material costs. We expect these cost pressures to continue through fiscal 2026 and beyond.

According to the Florida Manufactured Housing Association, shipments for the manufacturing housing industry in Florida for the period from November 2025 through April 2026 increased by approximately 3% from the same period last year.

Our strong financial position remains key to our future growth and success. Our decades of experience in the Florida market, combined with growing demand for affordable housing, should position the Company well for the future. Management continues to believe our geographic market is one of the strongest long-term growth areas in the country."

On June 5, 2026, we celebrated our 59^th 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 35 years and an insurance agency subsidiary, we are the only vertically integrated manufactured home company headquartered in Florida.
