Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

NOTE 1    Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the consolidated financial position as of February 28, 2017, in addition to the consolidated results of operations and cash flows for the three-month and nine-month periods ended February 28, 2017 and February 29, 2016. Due to the seasonal nature of the Corporation’s business, interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for the entire year.

The unaudited interim consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations for reporting on Form 10-Q. Accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosures normally accompanying the annual consolidated financial statements have been omitted. The audited consolidated balance sheet as of May 31, 2016, and the unaudited interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Corporation’s latest annual report on Form 10-K.

NOTE 2    Discontinued Operations

During September 2014, the Corporation made a strategic decision to exit the recreational vehicle industry in order to focus on its core housing business. As a result, on October 7, 2014, the Corporation completed the sale of certain assets associated with its recreational vehicle segment to Evergreen Recreational Vehicles, LLC.

NOTE 6    Life Insurance Loans

Life insurance loans have no fixed repayment schedule, and have interest rates ranging from 4.2 percent to 7.4 percent. The weighted average interest rate is 5.2 percent.

NOTE 7    Income Taxes

At February 28, 2017, the Corporation’s gross deferred tax assets of approximately $49.8 million consist of approximately $34.8 million in federal net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards, $7.8 million in state net operating loss carryforwards and $7.2 million resulting from temporary differences between financial and tax reporting. The federal net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards have a life expectancy of between eleven and twenty years. The state net operating loss carryforwards have a life expectancy, depending on the state where a loss was incurred, between one and twenty years. The Corporation has recorded a full valuation allowance against this asset. If the Corporation, after considering future negative and positive evidence regarding the realization of deferred tax assets, determines that a lesser valuation allowance is warranted, it would record a reduction to income tax expense and the valuation allowance in the period of determination.

NOTE 8    Commitments and Contingencies

The Corporation was contingently liable at February 28, 2017 and May 31, 2016, under repurchase agreements with certain financial institutions providing inventory financing for dealers of its products. Under these arrangements, which are customary in the manufactured housing and park model industries, the Corporation agrees to repurchase units in the event of default by the dealer at declining prices over the term of the agreement. The period to potentially repurchase units is between 12 to 24 months. The maximum repurchase liability is the total amount that would be paid upon the default of the Corporation’s independent dealers.

The maximum potential repurchase liability, without reduction for the resale value of the repurchased units, was approximately $27 million at February 28, 2017 and $25 million at May 31, 2016. As a result of the Corporation’s favorable experience regarding repurchased units, which is largely due to the strength of dealers selling the Corporation’s products, the Corporation maintained at February 28, 2017 and May 31, 2016, a $100,000 loss reserve that is a component of other accrued liabilities. The risk of loss under these agreements is spread over many dealers and financial institutions. The loss, if any, under these agreements is the difference between the repurchase cost and the resale value of the units. The Corporation estimates the fair value of this commitment considering both the contingent losses and the value of the guarantee.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) — (Continued)

NOTE 8    Commitments and Contingencies — (Continued)

 

This amount has historically been insignificant. The Corporation believes that any potential loss under the agreements in effect at February 28, 2017 will not be material to its financial position or results of operations. There were no obligations or incurred net losses from repurchased units for the three and nine month periods ended February 28, 2017 and February 29, 2016.

The Corporation is a party to various pending legal proceedings in the normal course of business. Management believes that any losses resulting from such proceedings would not have a material adverse effect on the Corporation’s results of operations or financial position.

The Corporation utilizes a combination of insurance coverage and self-insurance for certain items, including workers’ compensation and group health benefits. Liabilities for workers’ compensation are recognized for estimated future medical costs and indemnity costs. Liabilities for group health benefits are recognized for claims incurred but not paid. Insurance reserves are estimated based upon a combination of historical data and actuarial information. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

NOTE 9    Secured Revolving Credit Facility

On March 20, 2015, the Corporation (“Borrower(s)”) entered into a Loan and Security Agreement (the “Loan Agreement”) with First Business Capital Corp. (“First Business Capital”). Under the Loan Agreement, First Business Capital will provide a secured revolving credit facility to the Borrowers for a term of three years, renewable on an annual basis thereafter with each renewal for a successive one-year term. The Corporation may obtain loan advances up to a maximum of $10,000,000 subject to certain collateral-obligation ratios. In addition, loan advances bear interest at 3.75% in excess of The Wall Street Journal’s published one year LIBOR rate, and are secured by substantially all of the Borrowers’ assets, now owned or hereafter acquired. Interest is payable monthly, in arrears, and all principal and accrued but unpaid interest is due and payable upon termination of the Loan Agreement. First Business Capital also agreed under the Loan Agreement to issue, or cause to be issued by a bank affiliate or other bank, letters of credit for the account of the Corporation. However, no advances have yet been made in connection with such letters of credit.

In the third quarter of fiscal 2017, the Corporation did not meet a covenant requiring the year to date net loss not to exceed $1,750,000, and a covenant requiring net worth as of February 28, 2017 to not be below $23,383,000. The inability to meet these covenants represent an event of default, which if not waived could negatively affect the Corporation’s ability to obtain financing under the facility and thereby have an adverse effect on liquidity. Subsequent to February 28, 2017, the Corporation received a waiver for the default that occurred in the third quarter and paid to First Business Capital an accommodation fee of $50,000. Except as provided herein, the Loan Agreement and all other loan documentation related thereto shall remain in full force and effect in accordance with their terms.

NOTE 10 Stock-Based Compensation

On June 25, 2015, the Corporation’s Board of Directors approved the 2015 Stock Incentive Plan (“Plan”), which allows the granting of stock options and other equity awards to directors, officers, employees, and eligible independent contractors of the Corporation and is intended to retain and reward key employees’ performance and efforts as they relate to the Corporation’s long-term objectives and strategic plan. The Plan was subsequently approved by shareholders at the Corporation’s annual shareholder meeting on September 21, 2015. A total of 700,000 shares of Common Stock have been reserved for issuance under the Plan. Stock option awards are granted with an exercise price equal to, or greater than, the market price of the Corporation’s stock at the date of grant and vest over a period of time as determined by the Corporation at the date of grant up to the contractual ten-year life at which time the options expire. Restricted stock awards are priced no less than 100 percent of market price of the Corporation’s stock at the date of grant, and the awards made to date fully vest after five years.

Stock-based compensation expense for the third quarter of fiscal 2017 and 2016 was approximately $39,000 and $22,000, respectively. Stock-based compensation expense for the first nine months of fiscal 2017 and 2016 was approximately $101,000 and $57,000, respectively. Total unrecognized compensation expense related to stock options outstanding at February 28, 2017 was approximately $680,000 and is to be recorded over a weighted-average life of 3.6 years.

The Corporation records all stock-based payments, including grants of stock options, in the consolidated statements of operations based on their fair values at the date of grant. The Corporation currently uses the Black-Scholes option pricing model to determine the fair value of stock options. The determination of the fair value of stock options on the date of grant using an option-pricing model is affected by stock price as well as assumptions that include expected stock price volatility over the term of the awards, expected life of the awards, risk-free interest rate, and expected dividends.

The fair value of the options granted during the first nine months of fiscal 2017 and 2016 were estimated at the date of grant using the following weighted average assumptions:

 

     2017     2016  

Volatility

     64.3     55.8

Risk-free interest rate

     2.14     2.22

Expected option life in years

     7.50       9.72  

Dividend yield

     0     0

Volatility is estimated based on historical volatility measured monthly for a time period equal to the expected life of the option ending on the date of grant. The risk-free interest rate is determined based on observed U.S. Treasury yields in effect at the time of the grant for maturities equivalent to the expected life of the options. The expected option life (estimated average period of time the options will be outstanding) is estimated based on the expected exercise date of the options. The expected dividend yield of zero is estimated based on the dividend yield at the time of grant as adjusted for any expected changes during the life of the options.

NOTE 10 Stock-Based Compensation — (Continued)

 

Restricted Stock – In the third quarter of fiscal 2017, the Corporation issued 15,000 shares of restricted stock valued at approximately $216,000. The value was determined using the market price of the Corporation’s common stock at the date of grant. The restricted stock’s value is to be expensed over a five year vesting period using a straight-line method. Compensation expense for the third quarter was approximately $6,000, and unrecognized compensation expense at February 28, 2017 was approximately $210,000.

NOTE 11 Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per common share is computed based on the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the reporting period. Diluted earnings per common share is computed based on the combination of dilutive common share equivalents, comprised of shares issuable under the Corporation’s Stock Incentive Plan and the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the reporting period. Dilutive common share equivalents include the dilutive effect of in-the-money options to purchase shares, which is calculated based on the average share price for each period using the treasury stock method. The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share (dollars in thousands, except per share amounts):

NOTE 12 Restructuring Activities

On February 14, 2017, the Corporation entered into a restructuring plan involving the suspension of operations at the Mansfield, Texas facility. Subsequent to the end of the third quarter of fiscal 2017, the Corporation continued its restructuring plan with the announcement of the suspension of operations at the Elkhart, Indiana facility. The plan for the Elkhart facility is referenced in Note 13. The restructuring does not represent a strategic shift in operations due to an expectation to have a portion of customers of these two facilities serviced by manufacturing facilities located in Arkansas City, Kansas and Sugarcreek, Ohio.

The suspension of operations in Mansfield was due to the plant being unable to profitably operate since it was converted from producing recreational vehicles to manufactured housing in fiscal 2014. Production will continue until the backlog is fulfilled in April 2017. The Corporation has not entered into one-time termination agreements and has not incurred nor anticipates material costs related to the termination of contracts such as leases related to the restructuring. In addition, the Corporation expenses other costs related to the restructuring as incurred but has not incurred material costs related to the restructuring as of February 28, 2017. The Corporation has not recorded a liability related to the restructuring as of February 28, 2017.

On February 24, 2017, the Corporation entered into a Real Estate Purchase Agreement to sell real property and substantially all of the equipment located in Mansfield. Raw materials, inventory and licensed vehicles were excluded from the sale. The sale was completed on April 11, 2017 for a net sales price of approximately $2,212,000, resulting in an estimated gain of approximately $1,400,000 that will be recognized in the fourth quarter. The assets sold were security under the Corporation’s Secured Revolving Credit Facility with First Business Capital. First Business Capital released its lien on the real property subject to $1,100,000 of the net sales proceeds being held in a cash collateral account at First Business Bank, an affiliate of First Business Capital.

NOTE 13 Subsequent Events

On March 1, 2017, the Corporation announced the suspension of operations at the Elkhart, Indiana facility. The suspension was due to the plant being unable to profitably operate since it opened in June 2016. Production was completed on March 8, 2017. There were no one-time termination or contract costs incurred with this exit activity to be accrued in the third quarter of fiscal 2017. Other exit costs, which are not expected to be significant, will be expensed as incurred.

 

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

Overview — (Continued)

 

dealers, developers, campgrounds and communities, the Corporation has multiple facilities in several states. Manufactured housing, modular housing and park models are sold to customers either through floor plan financing with various financial institutions, credit terms, or on a cash basis. While the Corporation maintains production of manufactured housing, modular homes and park models throughout the year, seasonal fluctuations in sales do occur.

Manufactured Housing, Modular Housing and Park Model Industry Conditions

Sales and production of manufactured housing, modular housing and park models are affected by winter weather conditions at the Corporation’s northern plants. Manufactured and modular housing are marketed under a number of trademarks, and are available in a variety of dimensions. Park models are marketed under the “Shore Park” trademark.

Manufactured housing products are built according to standards established by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development. Modular homes are built according to state, provincial or local building codes. Park models are built according to specifications established by the American National Standards Institute, and are intended to provide temporary living accommodations for individuals seeking leisure travel and outdoor recreation.

Sales of manufactured housing, modular housing and park models are affected by the strength of the U.S. economy, interest rate and employment levels, consumer confidence and the availability of wholesale and retail financing. Recent trends regarding calendar year unit shipments of the Corporation’s products and their respective industries are as follows:

Mansfield, Texas and Elkhart, Indiana Facilities

On February 14, 2017, the Corporation entered into a restructuring plan involving the suspension of operations at the Mansfield, Texas facility. Subsequent to the end of the third quarter of fiscal 2017, the Corporation continued its restructuring plan with the announcement of the suspension of operations at the Elkhart, Indiana facility. The Corporation ceased production at its Elkhart, Indiana facility on March 8, 2017, and at its Mansfield, Texas facility on April 10, 2017. The Corporation has not entered into one-time termination agreements and has not incurred nor anticipates material costs related to the termination of contracts such as leases related to the restructuring. In addition, the Corporation expenses other costs related to the restructuring as incurred but has not incurred material costs related to the restructuring as of February 28, 2017. The Corporation has not recorded a liability related to the restructuring as of February 28, 2017. The Corporation anticipates that a portion of customers previously served by these plants will be serviced by its facilities in Arkansas City, Kansas and Sugarcreek, Ohio.

Net sales and net losses incurred by these facilities, excluding corporate overhead allocations were as follows:

Mansfield, Texas and Elkhart, Indiana Facilities — (Continued)

 

On February 24, 2017, the Corporation entered into a Real Estate Purchase Agreement to sell the real property and substantially all of the equipment located in Mansfield. Raw materials, inventory and licensed vehicles were excluded from the sale. The sale was completed on April 11, 2017 for a net sales price of approximately $2,212,000, resulting in an estimated gain of approximately $1,400,000 that will be recognized in the fourth quarter. The assets sold were security under the Corporation’s Secured Revolving Credit Facility with First Business Capital Corp (“First Business Capital”). First Business Capital released its lien on the real property subject to $1,100,000 of the net sales proceeds being held in a cash collateral account at First Business Bank, an affiliate of First Business Capital.

Secured Revolving Credit Facility

On March 20, 2015, the Corporation (“Borrower(s)”) entered into a Loan and Security Agreement (the “Loan Agreement”) with First Business Capital Corp. Under the Loan Agreement, First Business Capital will provide a secured revolving credit facility to the Borrowers for a term of three years, renewable on an annual basis thereafter with each renewal for a successive one-year term. The Corporation may obtain loan advances up to a maximum of $10,000,000 subject to certain collateral-obligation ratios. In addition, loan advances bear interest at 3.75% in excess of The Wall Street Journal’s published one year LIBOR rate, and are secured by substantially all of the Borrowers’ assets, now owned or hereafter acquired. Interest is payable monthly, in arrears, and all principal and accrued but unpaid interest is due and payable upon termination of the Loan Agreement. First Business Capital also agreed under the Loan Agreement to issue, or cause to be issued by a bank affiliate or other bank, letters of credit for the account of the Corporation. However, no advances have yet been made in connection with such letters of credit.

In the third quarter of fiscal 2017, the Corporation did not meet a covenant requiring the year to date net loss not to exceed $1,750,000, and a covenant requiring net worth as of February 28, 2017 to not be below $23,383,000. The inability to meet these covenants represent an event of default, which if not waived could negatively affect the Corporation’s ability to obtain financing under the facility and thereby have an adverse effect on liquidity. Subsequent to February 28, 2017, the Corporation received a waiver for the default that occurred in the third quarter and paid to First Business Capital an accommodation fee of $50,000. Except as provided herein, the Loan Agreement and all other loan documentation related thereto shall remain in full force and effect in accordance with their terms.

Net sales increased approximately 8.3 percent. The increase was comprised of a 13.8 percent increase in manufactured housing net sales, a 38.7 percent decrease in modular housing net sales, and a 14.7 percent increase in park model net sales. Current quarter net manufactured housing sales includes approximately $4,300,000 attributable to the Elkhart, Indiana facility which commenced operations in June 2016. Modular net sales declined primarily due to decreased demand from Midwest-based dealers as manufactured housing products are able to satisfy demand from retail customers. Park model net sales rose as a result of Management’s initiative to increase this product’s exposure at substantially all of the Corporation’s facilities.

For the following three-month periods, the percentage increase or decrease in unit shipments from the comparable period last year are as follows:

Compared to the prior year, the average net sales price for manufactured housing and modular housing decreased 3.6 and 0.5 percent, respectively, primarily as a result of homes sold with less square footage and fewer amenities and was partially offset by a price increase. The average sales price for park models increased 9.4 percent as a result of a price increase and product sold with greater square footage and additional amenities.

Cost of sales, in dollars, increased primarily as a result of increased net sales. Current quarter cost of sales includes approximately $4,448,000 attributable to the Elkhart, Indiana facility. As a percentage of net sales, cost of sales increased primarily due to higher manufacturing labor costs associated with hiring and training employees at facilities which are increasing production output. In addition, newly hired, inexperienced employees contributed to an increase in workers’ compensation and warranty costs for the period.

Net sales increased approximately 14.1 percent. The increase was comprised of a 16.3 percent increase in manufactured housing net sales, a 13.7 percent decrease in modular housing net sales, and a 47.8 percent increase in park model net sales. Current period net manufactured housing sales includes approximately $10,554,000 attributable to the Elkhart, Indiana facility which commenced operations in June 2016. Modular net sales declined primarily due to decreased need from Midwest-based dealers as manufactured housing products are able to satisfy demand from retail customers. Park model net sales rose as a result of Management’s initiative to increase this product’s exposure at substantially all of the Corporation’s facilities.

For the following nine month periods, the percentage increase or decrease in unit shipments from the comparable period last year are as follows:

Compared to the prior year, the average net sales price for manufactured housing decreased 3.6 primarily as a result of homes sold with less square footage and fewer amenities and was partially offset by a price increase. The average net sales price for modular housing and park models increased 3.8 and 4.3 percent, respectively, as a result of a price increase and product sold with greater square footage and additional amenities.

Cost of Sales

Cost of sales, in dollars, increased primarily as a result of increased net sales. Current period cost of sales includes approximately $11,618,000 attributable to the Elkhart, Indiana facility. As a percentage of net sales, cost of sales increased primarily due to higher manufacturing labor costs associated with hiring and training employees at facilities which are increasing production output. In addition, newly hired, inexperienced employees contributed to an increase in workers’ compensation costs for the period.

In addition, the Corporation benefitted in prior year from a $250,000 final payment received in the second quarter on an account that had been previously fully reserved. As a percentage of net sales, selling and administrative expenses declined due to certain costs remaining relatively constant amid rising sales.

Working capital

   $ 15,485      $ 17,787      $ (2,302

As noted in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for the nine month period ended February 28, 2017, cash decreased due to cash used in operating activities of $1,290,000 and cash used in investing activities of $1,137,000. Current assets, exclusive of cash, increased primarily due to a $2,238,000 increase in Inventories; offset by a $604,000 decrease in Workers’ compensation security deposit. Raw material inventories increased due to anticipated production scheduled to occur in the fourth fiscal quarter. Work in process inventories increased due to increased production as February 28, 2017 as compared to May 31, 2016. Workers’ compensation security deposit decreased to fund workers’ compensation claims for the current fiscal year.

Current liabilities increased primarily as a result of a $869,000 increase in Accrued warranty and a $1,323,000 increase in accrued marketing programs; offset by a $1,002,000 decrease in Accrued salaries and wages. Accrued warranty rose due to increased unit sales. Accrued marketing programs rose as a result of accruals for an ongoing marketing program for manufactured housing customers. Accruals are made monthly, and the majority of payments are made during the Corporation’s fourth fiscal quarter. Accrued salaries and wages decreased due to the timing of payments to employees at February 28, 2017 as compared to May 31, 2016.

Capital expenditures totaled $1,094,000 for the first nine months of fiscal 2017 as compared to $312,000 for the first nine months of fiscal 2016. The increase is the result of building improvements, purchasing equipment for the Elkhart, Indiana facility, and replacing equipment that had reached its full economic useful life.

In the third quarter of fiscal 2017, the Corporation did not meet a covenant requiring the year to date net loss not to exceed $1,750,000, and a covenant requiring net worth as of February 28, 2017 to not be below $23,383,000. The inability to meet these covenants represent an event of default, which if not waived could negatively affect the Corporation’s ability to obtain financing under the facility and thereby have an adverse effect on liquidity. Subsequent to February 28, 2017, the Corporation received a waiver for the default that occurred in the third quarter and paid to First Business Capital an accommodation fee of $50,000. Except as provided herein, the Loan Agreement and all other loan documentation related thereto shall remain in full force and effect in accordance with their terms.

If necessary, the Corporation has the ability to borrow approximately $2,300,000 under the cash surrender value of certain life insurance policies.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations — (Continued).

 

Impact of Inflation

The consolidated financial statements included in this report reflect transactions in the dollar values in which they were incurred and, therefore, do not attempt to measure the impact of inflation. On a long-term basis, the Corporation has adjusted selling prices in reaction to changing costs due to inflation.

Forward Looking Information

The preceding Management’s Discussion and Analysis contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements are also made elsewhere in this report. The Corporation publishes other forward-looking statements from time to time.

Statements that are not historical in nature, including those containing words such as “anticipate,” “estimate,” “should,” “expect,” “believe,” “intend,” and similar expressions, are intended to identify forward-looking statements. We caution to be aware of the speculative nature of “forward-looking statements.” Although these statements reflect the Corporation’s good faith belief based on current expectations, estimates, and projections about (among other things) the industry and the markets in which the Corporation operates, they are not guarantees of future performance.

Whether actual results will conform to management’s expectations and predictions is subject to a number of known and unknown risks and uncertainties, including the following:

 

    Consumer confidence and economic uncertainty;

 

    Availability of wholesale and retail financing;

 

    The health of the U.S. housing market as a whole;

 

    Regulations pertaining to the housing and park model industries;

 

    The cyclical nature of the manufactured housing and park model industries;

 

    General or seasonal weather conditions affecting sales;

 

    Potential impact of natural disasters on sales and raw material costs;

 

    Potential periodic inventory adjustments by independent retailers;

 

    Interest rate levels;

 

    Impact of inflation;

 

    Impact of labor costs;

 

    Competitive pressures on pricing and promotional costs;

 

    Catastrophic events impacting insurance costs;

 

    The availability of insurance coverage for various risks to the Corporation;

 

    Market demographics; and

 

    Management’s ability to attract and retain executive officers and key personnel.

Consequently, all of the Corporation’s forward-looking statements are qualified by these cautionary statements. The Corporation may not realize the results anticipated by management or, even if the Corporation substantially realizes the results management anticipates, the results may not have the consequences to, or effects on, the Corporation or its business or operations that management expects. Such differences may be material. Except as required by applicable laws, the Corporation does not intend to publish updates or revisions of any forward-looking statements management makes to reflect new information, future events or otherwise.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

No change in the Corporation’s internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(f)) occurred during the fiscal third quarter ended February 28, 2017 that materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Corporation’s internal control over financial reporting.
