Legacy Housing Corporation Q2 2026 Earnings Call Summary

Moby
Our analysts just identified a stock with the potential to be the next Nvidia. Tell us how you invest and we'll show you why it's our #1 pick. Tap here. Record net income growth of nearly 60% was primarily driven by the commencement of a large 380-unit workforce housing contract, contributing 113 units in the quarter. Net revenue per unit increased to approximately $74,900 from $68,100, reflecting a deliberate product mix shift toward higher-value, specialized units. Commercial sales to mobile home parks grew by about 12.5%, while dealer inventory finance sales declined 74% as dealers focused on clearing existing lot inventory. Management attributed improved sales momentum to a revitalized sales organization that is generating higher-quality leads and building a healthier order book. The company is mitigating elevated tariff rates on Chinese goods through supplier diversification, increased domestic sourcing, and selective price adjustments. Operational efficiency is being targeted through a new financial analysis department using AI tools to optimize bills of materials, assembly processes, and repossession pricing. Deliveries for the remaining 267 units of the current workforce housing contract are expected to continue throughout the remainder of 2026. Management identifies significant future potential in workforce housing tied to data center construction projects and regional oilfield demand. The effective tax rate is expected to move closer to the 21% statutory rate in the second half of the year following the termination of the Section 45L credit on June 30. Near-term production capacity is primarily constrained by the availability of trained labor, prompting new recruiting and retention programs to stabilize the workforce.

Nvidia-level potential. 30M+ investors trust Moby to find it first. Get the pick. Tap here. Management confirmed the backlog includes more than just workforce housing, citing successful penetration into the park business and independent dealer channels. The company has 'dusted itself off' in Georgia by beefing up sales departments to rebuild volume and profitability that were previously lagging. Workforce units carry higher price points because they are larger, heavier, and require extra manufacturing steps, such as increased axle counts. Customers in time-sensitive sectors like data centers and oil are willing to compensate the company for speed of delivery. Legacy has hired four analysts to use AI for 'down to the stud' pricing on bills of materials and to identify capital investment opportunities in the assembly process. New AI tools have been implemented to more accurately price repossessed units and accelerate the underwriting process for consumer financing.

Management said it sees further workforce housing opportunities, including potential demand associated with data center construction projects. However, Langbert identified the ability to secure and retain trained labor as the company’s principal near-term constraint on converting its sales opportunities into production. Interest income from Legacy’s loan portfolio increased 5.4% to $11.5 million, primarily due to growth in its consumer lending book. At quarter-end, the consumer loan portfolio totaled approximately $202.2 million, notes receivable from mobile home parks were approximately $209 million, and dealer inventory finance receivables were approximately $23.2 million. Langbert said credit quality remained solid across the company’s lending portfolios. Legacy recorded a roughly $600,000 benefit from its provision for loan losses during the quarter, compared with a $1.1 million expense in the prior-year period. Beginning in the second quarter, the company began presenting the provision for loan losses as a separate line item rather than within selling, general and administrative expenses. Operating cash flow for the first half of 2026 reached $24.4 million, compared with $11 million a year earlier. The increase reflected stronger earnings and a $10.7 million increase in customer deposits, including a roughly $7.1 million non-refundable advance received during the first quarter related to the workforce housing order. Legacy ended the quarter with $29 million in cash, up from $8.5 million at the end of 2025, and no borrowings under its $50 million Prosperity Bank revolving credit facility. Stockholders’ equity was $562.2 million at quarter-end, while book value per share was $23.64. The company’s effective tax rate was 11.2%, down from 17.3% a year earlier. Langbert said the rate benefited from the Federal Energy-Efficient Home Tax Credit, or Section 45L, and the reversal of certain uncertain tax position accruals. He said Legacy expects its effective tax rate to move closer to the statutory rate during the second half after the Section 45L credit terminated June 30. Shipley said Legacy is nearing key development milestones at its Bastrop County, Texas, project, including a Texas Department of Transportation driveway and final plat filing. He said the company could begin placing homes at the site before the end of the year, though he cautioned that timing remains dependent on governmental approvals and other development steps. Langbert said the extended development timeline has coincided with appreciation in lot values in the Austin-area market. During the question-and-answer session, Langbert also described efforts to introduce more technology and artificial intelligence tools across the business. The company has created a financial analysis department with four analysts working on areas including bills of materials, manufacturing processes, sales software, loan underwriting and pricing of repossessed homes. “We are absolutely adding technology where we can through the entire production cycle,” Langbert said. Legacy received approximately $700,000 in tariff refunds during the quarter following the Supreme Court’s ruling on IEEPA tariffs, benefiting gross margin, according to Langbert. He added that rates on many Chinese-origin goods remain above pre-2025 levels, and the company continues to respond through supplier diversification, increased domestic sourcing and selective price adjustments. Langbert said Legacy’s litigation involving Americasa, a manufactured housing business whose assets Legacy acquired in late 2025, is now pending in Texas Business Court. Legacy sued the sellers in March over alleged misrepresentations and post-closing misappropriation of receipts, while the sellers have filed counterclaims that Legacy believes lack merit. The company said the case could result in future adjustments to provisional acquisition accounting, depending on its outcome. Legacy also wrote off its approximately $560,000 minority investment in Corpus Americasa during the quarter. Separately, Legacy modified a roughly $48.6 million note owed by a group of mobile home park borrowers after it matured in July without being repaid in full. Since quarter-end, the company received a $2 million principal payment and agreed to an 18-month interest-only period followed by amortizing payments at a market rate, along with additional collateral and an increased personal guarantee. Langbert said Legacy does not expect to recognize a loss based on the collateral. The call also marked the retirement of Curt Hodgson as executive chairman and director in July. Shipley, Legacy’s co-founder and CEO, praised Hodgson’s more than four decades of work building the company and said Legacy would continue its focus on profitability. Legacy Housing Corp. designs, builds and markets factory-built homes, focusing on both single-section and multi-section manufactured housing products. The company offers a range of floor plans and customization options, including energy-efficient features and accessible design elements. Its core business activities encompass in-house design, procurement of building materials, plant-based construction and nationwide distribution through an independent network of retail partners.

FY2026 Q2 earnings call transcript

Earnings source - 53 paragraphs
Operator

Good day, and thank you for standing by. Welcome to Legacy Housing Corporation second quarter 2026 earnings call. At this time, all participants are in a listen only mode. After the speaker's presentation, there will be a question and answer session. To ask a question during the session, you will need to press star one one on your telephone. You will then hear an automated message advising your hand is raised. To withdraw your question, please press star one one again. Please be advised that today's conference is being recorded. I would now like to turn the conference over to your speaker for today, Jon. Please go ahead.

Jon Langbert

Good morning, and thank you for joining Legacy Housing second quarter 2026 conference call. I'm Jon Langbert, the Chief Financial Officer. Our CEO, Kenneth E. Shipley, is also on the line and will join me for the question and answer session following our prepared remarks. Before we get into the quarter, I want to briefly note a leadership change. In July, Curt Hodgson retired as Executive Chairman and from our board of directors after decades building Legacy alongside Kenny, from a Texas partnership into one of the largest producers of manufactured homes in the country. Curt is the reason I joined Legacy. I have known him personally for more than 20 years, and I have learned an immense amount from him about this business and about business in general. I will always be grateful to him.

Jon Langbert

Kenny continues to lead the company as Chief Executive Officer, and he will share a few thoughts on Curt at the close of our prepared remarks. Before we begin those remarks, I will read our safe harbors disclosure. Management's prepared remarks today will contain forward-looking statements, which are subject to risks and uncertainties, and management may make additional forward-looking statements in response to your questions. Therefore, the company claims the protection of the safe harbor for forward-looking statements that is contained in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Actual results may differ from management's current expectations. We refer you to a more detailed discussion of the risks and uncertainties in the company's quarterly report on Form 10-Q filed yesterday with the Securities and Exchange Commission, and in our most recent annual report on Form 10-K. Any projections as to the company's future performance represent management's estimates as of today's call.

Jon Langbert

Legacy Housing assumes no obligation to update these projections in the future unless otherwise required by applicable law. With that, let's get into the numbers. Total net revenue for the quarter was $66.3 million, up 32.3% from $50.2 million a year ago. Net income grew to $23.5 million from $14.7 million, an increase of nearly 60%, and diluted earnings per share came in at $0.99, up from $0.60 in the second quarter of 2025. Net income was a record for the company, and I will walk you through the drivers. Product sales were $53.8 million, up 40%. We shipped 718 units in the quarter versus 564 a year ago, up 27.3%. Net revenue per unit rose to roughly $74,900 from $68,100, reflecting a shift in product mix toward higher value homes. The single biggest driver was the commencement of deliveries under our large workforce housing order.

Jon Langbert

We shipped 113 units this quarter against a 380-unit contract. We also saw strength in commercial sales to mobile home parks, which were up about 12.5%. Those gains were partially offset by inventory finance sales, which were down about $10.1 billion, or 74%, as our dealers continued to work through existing inventory on their lots, and by modestly lower direct and retail store sales. Loan portfolio interest income was $11.5 million, up 5.4%, with the growth driven primarily by our consumer book. At quarter end, the consumer loan portfolio stood at approximately $202.2 million, notes receivable from mobile home parks at approximately $209 million, and dealer inventory finance receivables at approximately $23.2 million. On the expense side, cost of product sales rose 29.2%, in line with higher unit volumes, including deliveries under the Workforce Housing Order.

Jon Langbert

Selling, General, and Administrative expense was $6.9 million, up 21.1%, driven mainly by higher professional and consulting fees, higher Heritage Housing payroll, and higher service and warranty costs, partially offset by lower incentive compensation and property taxes. Beginning this quarter, we present the provision for loan loss as a separate line item rather than within SG&A. On that basis, the provision was a benefit of about $600,000 this quarter, compared with an expense of $1.1 million a year ago, reflecting favorable portfolio performance. On taxes, our effective rate for the quarter was 11.2% versus 17.3% a year ago, and the 21% statutory rate. The lower rate reflects the Federal Energy-Efficient Home Tax Credit, known as Section 45L, as well as the reversal of certain uncertain tax position accruals during the quarter. As a reminder, the Section 45L credit terminated on June 30th of this year under last year's tax legislation.

Jon Langbert

We expect our effective tax rate to move closer to the statutory rate in the second half of the year. Our balance sheet remains in excellent shape. We ended the quarter with $29 million in cash, up from $8.5 million at year-end, and we generated $24.4 million of operating cash flow in the first half of the year, up from $11 million a year ago. That increase was driven by our stronger earnings and by a $10.7 million increase in customer deposits, which includes the roughly $7.1 million non-refundable advance we received in the first quarter on that Workforce Housing Order. Inventories rose to $43.9 million from $39.9 million at year-end, primarily in finished goods to support continued production, including units remaining to be delivered under the Workforce Housing Order. Our $50 million Prosperity Bank revolver had no borrowings outstanding at quarter end.

Jon Langbert

We paid down the small balance carried at year-end, leaving essentially the full facility available. We remain in compliance with all financial covenants. Total stockholders' equity finished the quarter at $562.2 million, up from $528.6 million at year-end, and book value per share was $23.64. Credit quality across the loan portfolios remains solid. The clear highlight of the quarter was the start of deliveries under our large Workforce Housing Order. This is a 380-unit contract, and we shipped 113 units during the second quarter, with deliveries expected to continue throughout the remainder of 2026. We're seeing significant interest in workforce housing across our markets. In addition to our traditional oil field housing, new opportunities tied to data center construction projects. Given the number of projects underway or planned in our regions, we believe there is meaningful potential for additional orders of this type.

Jon Langbert

We'd also credit our sales organization directly here. The team continues to raise its game, bringing in more and higher quality leads than we've worked in the past, and that is building an increasingly healthy order book heading into the second half. Our principal near-term constraint on converting that opportunity is securing and retaining enough trained labor, and management is implementing new recruiting and retention programs to expand and stabilize our skilled workforce. Our loan portfolios continue to be a stable, growing source of interest income. Consumer loan portfolio interest income grew again this quarter. Credit quality remains solid across all portfolios, and we have not seen deterioration that would change our reserving posture.

Jon Langbert

On capital allocation, with our balance sheet carrying $29 million of cash and essentially no debt, we remain well-positioned to fund growth, and we continue to view share repurchases as a sensible use of capital when our stock trades near book value. One important development this summer came out of Washington. In July, the 21st Century ROAD to Housing Act was signed into law, the most significant federal housing affordability legislation in decades, and one that we view as meaningfully favorable to our industry. Among other things, it eliminates the longstanding permanent chassis requirement for HUD code homes, directs HUD to modernize construction standards, raises FHA-insured loan limits for manufactured housing, and reauthorizes grant funding that supports manufactured home communities. Taken together, we believe these measures should, over time, expand where our homes can be placed and improve financing access for our customers.

Jon Langbert

It's still early, and we don't know which of these changes we'll ultimately be able to take advantage of. Some of the new possibilities, such as building duplexes or two-story units, come with their own set of opportunities and challenges that we're still working through. What we can say is that there was nothing in this legislation that is negative for Legacy, and the overall policy direction is clearly supportive of factory-built affordable housing, which is exactly the market we serve. Tariff rates were relatively stable this quarter, which helped us forecast input costs, and we received about $700,000 of tariff refunds following the Supreme Court's ruling on the IEEPA tariffs, which benefited gross margin. That said, effective rates on most Chinese origin goods remain well above pre-2025 levels, and we continue to mitigate through supplier diversification, more domestic sourcing, and selective price adjustments.

Jon Langbert

A quick update on the Americasa litigation. By way of background, Americasa is a manufactured housing business whose assets we acquired in late 2025. In March, we filed suit against the sellers over alleged misrepresentations and post-closing misappropriation of receipts connected to that acquisition. The case is now in the Texas Business Court, and the sellers have filed counterclaims that we believe are without merit. It's early, and we can't yet predict an outcome, but depending upon how it develops, there could be adjustments to the provisional acquisition accounting in a future period. Separately, we wrote off our roughly $560,000 minority investment in an affiliated entity, Corpus Americasa, during the quarter. The full detail is in notes 13, 16, and 17, and in the Legal Proceedings section of our 10-Q. One other item.

Jon Langbert

We hold a roughly $48.6 million note from a group of mobile home park borrowers that matured in July and was not repaid in full. Since quarter end, we've received a $2 million principal paydown and agreed to a modification, a short forbearance, an 18-month interest-only period, and then amortizing payments at a market rate, along with additional collateral and an increased personal guarantee. Based on the collateral, we do not expect to recognize a loss, and we're finalizing the documentation right now. This is covered in notes four and 17 of the 10-Q. To sum up, this was a record quarter for net income at Legacy. Net revenue was up 32%, net income was up nearly 60% to a company record $23.5 million, and diluted earnings per share was $0.99.

Jon Langbert

We generated $24.4 million of operating cash flow in the first half, and we ended the quarter with $29 million of cash, essentially no debt, $562 million of stockholders' equity, and a fully available revolver. The workforce housing order is delivering on schedule. Our sales pipeline is building, and we see real opportunity ahead, including in workforce housing for data center projects. Our loan portfolios remain a dependable, growing source of interest income, and our balance sheet gives us the flexibility to invest behind that growth. As Curt often reminded us, Legacy has never had a losing quarter in its history, and the second quarter of 2025 keeps that streak going. We're grateful for the foundation Curt and Kenny built. We're conservatively capitalized, and we're focused on long-term value creation as affordable housing becomes ever more important to U.S. consumers and policymakers. That concludes our prepared remarks.

Jon Langbert

Before we move to questions, Kenny, our Co-founder and Chief Executive Officer, would like to say a few words.

Kenneth E. Shipley

Hey, thanks Jon. I want to say a few words about my friend and business partner for more than 40 years, Curt Hodgson. For just about the entire time that me and Curt were together, most people didn't even know our last names. I think they just either knew us as Curt and Kenny or Kenny and Curt. Curt swore up and down for the whole time that he was done at 70. I think we just got lucky, and we squeezed out an extra couple of years out of him, and of course, it paid off. Anything Curt did was profitable. Curt and I built the business from the ground up, and we did it hands-on operations over the years. The two of us personally climbed in and out of literally thousands of units. I'm really proud of everything that me and Curt built together.

Kenneth E. Shipley

We've manufactured for FEMA shelters, for families, hurricane victims. We've built for everything that you could build for in this industry. We've had our hands in every part of this industry, whether it was mobile home parks or trucking or building or selling. We've done it all. Many of the first-time homebuyers who would have never had an opportunity to own a home have gotten that opportunity from our finance programs that we've put in place. That's the legacy that Curt leaves behind, and it's a good one. He's earned his retirement, Chance, and man, everybody at Legacy wishes him the very best. I hope he's happy in his retirement, and we're still friends. I just got the most respect you could ever have for anybody. I've got that for Curt.

Kenneth E. Shipley

I'd like to, maybe he's on listening, he probably is, thank him for everything he's done for the company and for me personally. He's been a great friend. That pretty much sums it up for me. We're going to continue to work Legacy and make it profitable. Thank you very much.

Jon Langbert

Okay. Thanks, Kenny. With that, Lisa, let's open up the line for Q&A. Kenny and I will both be available to respond.

Operator

Thank you. As a reminder, if you would like to ask a question, please press star one one on your telephone. You'll hear the automated message advising your hand is raised. If you would like to remove yourself, please press star one one again. We ask that you wait for your name and company to be announced before proceeding with your question. One moment while we compile the Q&A roster. Our first question's coming from the line of Rohit Seth of B. Riley. Please go ahead.

Rohit Seth

Hey, this is Rohit Seth at B. Riley. Thanks for taking my question. Good quarter, guys, in the workforce housing. Just curious, is the backlog on the workforce housing the 267 units, or is that increasing since you put out the number?

Kenneth E. Shipley

I'll take that question. We've really beefed up our sales department. We've got a backlog of more than just workforce housing. We've beefed up in Georgia's sales force. We've beefed up Texas, and we've got some really good people, including Jon Langbert on here. He's been a good, great find for us. Curt knew him and believed in him, and we brought him on. In that backlog, there's more than just workforce housing. We've done a good job penetrating the park business. These guys have just been on fire. We're starting to penetrate more of the independent dealer business. We've got a healthy backlog everywhere right now.

Rohit Seth

Okay. The workforce housing, the pricing on that was phenomenal. It was under $2,000 or whatnot. Do you expect that to be the same for the remaining backlog?

Kenneth E. Shipley

Yeah. Depends on what we build. It's all about square footage and everything. Some of the stuff that we're building for the workforce housing is harder to build than the normal stuff. We go through some extra steps. The stuff that we built previously has been just extremely heavy. We had to increase axles on everything. There's more cost in building what we've been building.

Rohit Seth

In the queue, it mentioned that Georgia had some room to grow, and you're looking at potential to expand over there. Prior calls had talked about there not being enough volume. I just want to know, has something changed? Are you guys looking at restaffing Georgia and ramping up given the strength in the workforce housing?

Kenneth E. Shipley

Yeah. Like I said earlier, we beefed up our sales departments in Georgia and Texas. We're building there also, we've got some backlog there, a lot of deals cooking, whether it's independent dealers, putting on new dealers. We've gotten some park business going on up there, we've got a little bit of workforce housing. We're working hard to get that beefed up and going.

Rohit Seth

Okay. I guess, last quarter, it was more of Georgia, you're looking at strategic options. I guess, is that taken off the table?

Kenneth E. Shipley

I'm sorry, repeat that.

Rohit Seth

In the last call, you guys had mentioned that the volumes weren't there and profitability wasn't there, something would have to change. So you're starting to see that one start to rebuild? You're starting to see orders come out of there?

Kenneth E. Shipley

Yeah. Absolutely.

Rohit Seth

Yeah.

Kenneth E. Shipley

Yeah. We dust ourselves off, and we got up out of the dirt, dust ourselves off, and like I said, we beefed up the sales department, and we went back to selling and trying to get it going. We've got some backlog right now and some business working.

Rohit Seth

All right. Fantastic. Well, good luck for the second half.

Kenneth E. Shipley

Thank you.

Operator

Thank you. If you'd like to ask a question, please press * one one on your telephone. One moment for the next question. Our next question's coming from the line of Alex Rygiel of Texas Capital Securities. Please go ahead.

Alex Rygiel

Thank you. Excellent quarter, everyone.

Kenneth E. Shipley

Thank you.

Alex Rygiel

John or Kenny, could you update us a little bit on the potential to monetize some land assets, in particular Bastrop County? You've been investing a fair amount on improvements there. Where does that site stand as it relates to delivering homes to it? Maybe update us on some of the other real estate assets you own.

Kenneth E. Shipley

Appreciate you calling, Alex. I've been spending a little bit of time up there. I've been up there just in the past two weeks, I think two or three times. The project is a great project. It's an unbelievable deal. If you're ever up that way, you need to go visit. It's unbelievable. We're getting really close. When you're dealing with governmental officials and you're dealing with engineers, everything is mañana. Everything. It's a hurry-up-and-wait situation. I think we're close to getting the DOT driveway in, the final plat has got to be filed. I think that gets the door open. The sewer treatment plant is actually being built, I don't think it's going to be a hold-up from what I'm told now. It wouldn't be the first time that we've got the rug pulled out from underneath our feet on this deal.

Kenneth E. Shipley

Kurt had an incredible vision on this project, he spent a lot of time, he worked his tail off on it. Probably, if we hadn't have done this, I'd have got another three years out of him. It'll age you working this deal, just waiting on and dealing with these governmental officials. They're not motivated to let anybody make any money. Their motivation is to figure out a way to keep you out or add something to your list because they think that's how their job's supposed to go. I think we're getting real close. I could see us being in there before the end of the year with houses. I think the need is still there in Austin. I drove a couple of other parks, they're full. There's no place to put the houses there.

Kenneth E. Shipley

I think it's going to be an incredible opportunity for us. Anyway.

Jon Langbert

On the bright side, the fact that it's taken so long to get the project to near where we could start selling lots, is that the value of those lots has appreciated well ahead of the rate of inflation. That area of Austin has just really been booming. It's kind of a silver lining to that cloud.

Alex Rygiel

Wonderful. John, if we just do the math and we look at the revenue that you broke out for workforce housing, and we look at the 113 units, the ASP per unit's pretty high. Is there some other kind of revenue from payment that's coming through the P&L there? Are these units three, four times bigger than what your traditional unit looks like?

Jon Langbert

These are large units, and as Kenny mentioned, they have some features that are non-standard that add to your revenue per square foot. You also oftentimes have customers who are in the oil business and data centers are motivated by your speed of delivery, and will compensate you for that. Is that kind of where you're headed?

Alex Rygiel

Yep, super. Also very helpful. Lastly, John, are there any other ways that you can kind of either trim back costs or be more creative on driving price using different AI tools maybe that you're working on internally that could help you longer term?

Jon Langbert

I'm glad you asked that. I came on in December as CFO, and one of the first things I recognized was Legacy is hugely profitable, but sometimes you rest on your laurels. It's an old line manufacturing and sales business. What I wanted to do was bring in some of those AI tools, and we've created a financial analysis department and brought in four analysts who are doing a great job. Even as we speak right now, they are out in the Fort Worth plant, working on our bills of material, what we call BOMs, in the business, and going down to the stud on pricing.

Jon Langbert

They are looking at it not just from the traditional sense of what's the cost per square foot for labor and materials for each of our models, but they're looking at the assembly process and saying, "Where can we apply technology?" There might be capital expense or capital investment opportunities there because we have such a strong balance sheet, but also, where does AI work in that system? Everything from we're replacing the software on our front end, our sales software, so that it's more effective. We can quote faster on through the manufacturing process and then out through financing. How can we more quickly and effectively underwrite? We have AI tools that we've already implemented in a couple of places, and then all the way at the end of the life cycle, the part we don't like to talk about, repos.

Jon Langbert

We've got a new AI tool we just put in place last month to go out into the market, check pricing, and more accurately price our repos so they sell quickly without leaving money on the table. Yes, we are absolutely adding technology where we can through the entire production cycle.

Alex Rygiel

Great. Thank you. Nice quarter.

Jon Langbert

Thanks.

Operator

Thank you. There are no more questions in the queue. I would like to turn the call back over to John for closing remarks. Please go ahead.

Jon Langbert

Well, thank you all for joining us today and your continued interest in Legacy Housing. We look forward to updating you next quarter.

3 Promising Earnings Acceleration Plays for Investors

Zacks
Experienced investors often look for companies with consistent earnings growth as a marker of solid profitability. However, an even more compelling indicator is earnings acceleration, which can be a key driver for stock price gains. Studies have found that many top-performing stocks exhibit earnings acceleration before their share prices start to move northward. To that end, Cummins Inc. CMI, Atkore Inc. ATKR and Legacy Housing Corporation LEGH are showing strong earnings acceleration. Earnings acceleration refers to the incremental growth in a company’s earnings per share (EPS). Put simply, if a company’s quarter-over-quarter earnings growth rate increases over a given period, it can be called earnings acceleration. In the case of earnings growth, you pay for something that is already reflected in the stock price. However, earnings acceleration helps identify stocks that haven’t yet caught investors’ attention and, once secured, will invariably lead to a rally in share price. This is because earnings acceleration considers both the direction and magnitude of growth rates. An increasing percentage of earnings growth means that the company is fundamentally sound and has been on the right track for a considerable period. Meanwhile, a sideways percentage of earnings growth indicates a period of consolidation or slowdown, while a decelerating percentage of earnings growth may drag prices down. Look at stocks for which the last two quarter-over-quarter percentage EPS growth rates exceed the previous periods’ growth rates. The projected EPS growth rate for the upcoming quarter is expected to exceed that of prior periods. EPS % Projected Growth (Q1)/(Q0) greater than EPS % Growth (Q0)/(Q-1): The projected growth rate for the current quarter (Q1) over the completed quarter (Q0) has to be greater than the growth rate from the completed quarter (Q0) over one quarter ago (Q-1). EPS % Growth (Q0)/(Q-1) greater than EPS % Growth (Q-1)/(Q-2): The growth rate for the completed quarter (Q0) over one quarter ago (Q-1) has to be greater than the growth rate from one quarter ago (Q-1) over two quarters ago (Q-2). EPS % Growth (Q-1)/(Q-2) greater than EPS % Growth (Q-2)/(Q-3): The growth rate from one quarter ago (Q-1) over two quarters ago (Q-2) has to be greater than the growth rate from two quarters ago (Q-2) over three quarters ago (Q-3).

Earnings Estimates Moving Higher for Legacy Housing (LEGH): Time to Buy?

Zacks
Legacy Housing (LEGH) could be a solid addition to your portfolio given a notable revision in the company's earnings estimates.

Legacy Housing Q1 Earnings Call Highlights

MarketBeat
Interested in Legacy Housing Corporation? Here are five stocks we like better. Legacy reported Q1 net revenue of $34.4 million (‑3.7% YoY) while net income rose to $10.9 million and diluted EPS to $0.46, helped by slightly stronger gross margins, lower SG&A and a favorable tax rate from the Section 45L credit. Sales mix shifted sharply away from dealer inventory finance (down ~68%) with strong growth in retail (+81%), direct (+80%) and park/commercial channels, and management received about $8 million of non‑refundable deposits for workforce housing — roughly 600 units with deposits and expected deliveries of 200–300 units in Q2. Loan interest income rose 6.2% to $11.3 million and credit metrics remained strong (over 97% of consumer and park loans <30 days past due); the company ended the quarter with $14.1 million cash, ~ $49 million available on its revolver and repurchased ~31,000 shares, though inventories rose and tariffs/input costs pose ongoing risks. Legacy Housing (NASDAQ:LEGH) reported first-quarter 2026 results that showed modest revenue pressure but improved profitability, helped by lower operating expenses and a favorable tax rate. Management also pointed to a meaningful mix shift in sales channels, a growing contribution from its loan portfolio, and a pipeline of workforce housing orders that it expects will begin shipping in the second quarter. Chief Financial Officer Jon Langbert said total net revenue was $34.4 million, down 3.7% from $35.7 million in the prior-year quarter. Net income increased to $10.9 million from $10.3 million, while diluted EPS rose to $0.46 from $0.41. → Insider Sales: Top AST SpaceMobile Insider Cuts Postion Over 30% Langbert attributed the improved earnings to “slightly stronger gross margins, lower SG&A, and a lower effective tax rate,” despite softer revenue.

Langbert said inventory finance sales declined by about $7.6 million, or 68%, as dealers worked through inventory already on their lots. At the same time, Legacy reported strength in: Retail store sales: up 81% to $6.1 million Direct sales: up 80% to $2.7 million Commercial sales to mobile home parks: up 12% to $7.6 million → Years in the Making, AMD’s Upside Movement Has Just Begun Executive Chairman Curtis Hodgson said the retail growth reflected progress in a strategy to expand company-owned distribution, noting the company’s 14 retail locations under the Heritage Housing, Tiny House Outlet, and AmeriCasa names. Hodgson added that part of the year-over-year increase also stemmed from the AmeriCasa acquisition completed last year. Langbert said loan portfolio interest income rose 6.2% to $11.3 million, with “essentially all of that growth coming from our consumer book.” He said the consumer portfolio ended the quarter at $204.8 million, up modestly from year-end. He also reported mobile home park notes of $199.5 million and dealer inventory finance receivables of $26.5 million at quarter end. On credit quality, Langbert said more than 97% of both consumer loans and mobile home park notes were less than 30 days past due. He added that the company increased loan loss reserves modestly, reflecting portfolio growth and “a slightly more conservative posture given the broader economic backdrop.” Hodgson echoed that performance, saying the loan portfolios were “performing very well” and that the company had not seen deterioration that would require a major shift in reserving beyond the modest increases already made. Langbert said cost of product sales fell 13.1%, broadly in line with lower volumes. SG&A totaled $5.8 million, down 8.3%, driven by lower payroll, health benefit, and legal costs, partially offset by a higher loan loss provision and modestly higher property taxes. The company’s effective tax rate was 16.1% for the quarter, down from 19.3% a year earlier and below the 21% statutory rate. Langbert attributed the lower rate to the Section 45L Federal Energy Efficient Home Improvement Credit, which provides a per-home tax credit for qualifying energy-efficient homes, and to a discount on transferable tax credits purchased during the quarter. He noted that the Section 45L credit is set to terminate on June 30 under last year’s tax legislation, and the company expects its tax rate to move closer to the statutory rate after that. Langbert described the balance sheet as remaining in “excellent shape.” The company ended the quarter with $14.1 million in cash, up from $8.5 million at year-end, supported by $7 million of operating cash flow. Inventories increased to $50.4 million from $39.9 million, “primarily in finished goods,” which management tied to production for a major project that Hodgson discussed in the context of workforce housing tied to data center activity. Legacy’s $50 million revolving credit facility with Prosperity Bank had less than $1 million drawn at quarter end, leaving roughly $49 million of available capacity, and Langbert said the company remained in compliance with financial covenants. Total stockholders’ equity was $539 million, up from $528.6 million at year-end. On capital allocation, Langbert said Legacy repurchased about 31,000 shares for roughly $600,000 during the quarter under a new $10 million authorization approved in February, leaving about $9.4 million available through February 2029. Hodgson said management views repurchases as a “sensible use of our capital” while the stock trades near book value, alongside reinvestment. Hodgson also discussed several business issues and developments: Tariffs and input costs: He said tariffs were a “meaningful theme” during the quarter. Hodgson cited a February Supreme Court ruling that emergency tariffs imposed in 2025 were not authorized and said the company is seeking a $683,000 refund as U.S. Customs winds down those duties. He added that new Section 301 investigations began in March and that additional Section 232 duties on materials such as aluminum, steel, and copper took effect April 6, after quarter end, continuing to pressure costs. Workforce housing orders: Hodgson said the company received about $8 million of non-refundable deposits in the quarter tied to large workforce housing orders, began production in Q1, but made no deliveries in the quarter. Entering Q2, he said he expected 200–300 units to be delivered. In the Q&A, he estimated the company had “somewhere around 600 units with deposit” in this category in Texas, with at least half expected to ship in Q2 and the remainder in Q3 and Q4, and said substantially all would be recognized during calendar 2026. AmeriCasa litigation: Hodgson said Legacy filed a lawsuit in March related to alleged “misrepresentations and omissions” in the AmeriCasa acquisition. He characterized the matter as early-stage and said it was not material to the company’s consolidated financial position, liquidity, or operations. Promissory note maturity: Hodgson discussed a short-term $48.6 million promissory note bearing 7.9% interest that matures in July. He said the borrower has made required payments and that the parties are discussing a partial payment and renewal, adding that the company still believes there will not be a negative effect but that negotiations are ongoing. Operating outlook by geography: Hodgson said Texas demand tied to “non-traditional” areas like data centers and the oil field was strong, while “traditional demand is not great,” particularly in Georgia, where he said the company did not yet have workforce housing orders and was relying on dealer, park, and company-store sales that “does not have enough volume to keep us running at profitable production.” Looking ahead, Hodgson said the company’s next two quarters “should be pretty doggone impressive” based on homes already built and shipping to major Texas customers. He also said SG&A reductions could continue, telling analysts he expected “maybe a 10% reduction by the end of the year in SG&A,” while cautioning that items such as loan loss provisioning and warranty-related costs can affect the total. During Q&A, Hodgson added that deportations have hurt sentiment in the Hispanic retail customer base, but he said the loan portfolio has not been affected. He noted repossessions had moved back toward historical norms, estimating roughly 4% per year.

Any projections as to the company’s future performance represent management’s estimates as of today’s call. Legacy Housing Corporation assumes no obligation to update these projections in the future unless otherwise required by applicable law. Thanks. Let us get to the numbers. Total net revenue for the quarter was $34.4 million, down 3.7% from $35.7 million a year ago. Despite the modest top line decline, net income was $10 million versus $10.3 million, and diluted EPS came in at $0.46, up from $0.41 in 2025. So revenue was a touch softer, but the bottom line was stronger, and I will walk through how we got there. Product sales were $21.6 million, down 11.3%. We shipped 312 units in the quarter versus 350 a year ago, with average revenue per unit essentially flat at roughly $69,100. The story underneath the headline number is really a mixed story. Inventory finance sales were down about $7.6 million, or 68%, as our dealers continue to work through existing inventory on their lots. That decline was largely offset by strength across our other channels. Retail store sales nearly doubled, up 81% to $6.1 million. Direct sales were up 80% to $2.7 million, and commercial sales to mobile home parks grew 12% to $7.6 million. The shift toward retail and direct selling reflects the strategy we have been executing, getting closer to the end consumer and expanding our company-owned distribution. Loan portfolio interest income was $11.3 million, up 6.2%, with essentially all of that growth coming from our consumer book. The consumer portfolio ended the quarter at $204.8 million, up modestly from year-end. Mobile home park notes finished at $199.5 million, and dealer inventory finance receivables at $26.5 million. On the expense side, cost of product sales was down 13.1%, broadly in line with lower volumes, and SG&A came in at $5.8 million, down 8.3%. The SG&A decline reflects lower payroll, health benefit, and legal costs, partially offset by a higher loan loss provision and modestly higher property taxes. The net result is that even with revenue down a touch, we delivered net income growth of about 6% and EPS growth of around 12%, a function of slightly stronger gross margins, lower SG&A, and a lower effective tax rate. On taxes, our effective rate for the quarter was 16.1% versus 19.3% a year ago and the 21% statutory rate. The benefit reflects two items. First, the federal energy efficient home improvement credit known as Section 45L, which provides a per-home tax credit for manufacturers who build homes meeting specified energy efficiency standards, which we have qualified for on a substantial portion of our production. Second, a discount on transferable tax credits we purchased during the quarter. As a reminder, the Section 45L credit terminates on June 30 under last year’s tax legislation. We expect our effective rate to move closer to the statutory rate after that. The balance sheet remains in excellent shape. We ended the quarter with $14.1 million in cash, up from $8.5 million at year-end, on $7 million of operating cash flow. Inventories rose to $50.4 million from $39.9 million at year-end, primarily in finished goods. Curtis will speak more about the inventory build and the data center project driving it in a moment. Our $50 million Prosperity Bank revolver had less than $1 million drawn at quarter end, leaving roughly $49 million of available capacity, and we are in compliance with all our financial covenants. Total stockholders’ equity finished the quarter at $539 million, up from $528.6 million at year-end. We repurchased about 31,000 shares for roughly $600,000 during the quarter under our new $10 million authorization that the board approved in February, leaving approximately $9.4 million available for future repurchases through February 2029. The credit quality across our loan portfolios remains solid. At quarter end, more than 97% of both our consumer loans and our mobile home park notes were less than 30 days past due. We did increase loan loss reserves modestly in the quarter, reflecting continued portfolio growth and a slightly more conservative posture given the broader economic backdrop. With that, I will turn it back to Curtis. Curtis Hodgson: Thanks, Jon. Let me hit a few business topics: the operating environment, some specific business updates, and a couple items that warrant a closer look from this quarter. The Q1 environment was a continuation of what I have spoken to in the past. Inflation picked up a little bit during the quarter, and the Fed is now holding its benchmark rate steady, and 30-year mortgage rates are staying above 6%. Sustained higher borrowing costs continue to weigh on affordability, which affects our end consumers and particularly affects our park customers. They are trying to make a return on their investment, and higher interest rates are making it more difficult to do so. Tariffs became a meaningful theme during this quarter, and they continue to affect our cost structure. The Supreme Court ruled in February that the emergency tariffs imposed in 2025 were not authorized, and U.S. Customs has begun winding down those duties. We are in the process of asking for a $683,000 refund based on that Supreme Court decision. Meanwhile, the U.S. Trade Representative picked up new Section 301 investigations in March that could provide a different legal basis for tariffs going forward. And effective April 6, right after our quarter end, additional Section 232 duties were imposed on things like aluminum, steel, and copper, which does affect our cost structure. The bottom line is combined effective tariff rates on most Chinese-origin goods are still meaningful, and we are still absorbing real input cost pressures. A few other specific items. On retail and dealer activity, the shift towards retail at our own company stores we have been talking about is really showing up this quarter, and I think will continue to improve. Our retail sales are up 81% year over year. Part of that increase came from buying AmeriCasa last year, which sells our homes but also sells three other brands at that location. Across our 14 company-owned retail locations—we call it Heritage Housing, our Tiny House Outlet, and AmeriCasa—direct access to end consumers continues to be a meaningful part of our strategy. On our finance division, the loan portfolios continue to perform very well. Consumer loan portfolio interest grew. Credit quality is over 97% across all of our portfolios, and we have not seen any deterioration that would require us to change our reserving posture beyond the modest increases that we have been making. On capital allocation, we restarted share repurchases this quarter under the new $10 million authorization, and with our stock continuing to trade near book value, we view buybacks as a sensible use of our capital alongside reinvestment in the business. Let me talk a minute about the workforce housing orders that for the last two calls I have mentioned. During this quarter, we received nonrefundable deposits of about $8 million from customers for large workforce housing orders. We started production on those orders in the first quarter but had not made any deliveries from those orders in the first quarter. Now that we are in the second quarter, I expect 200 to 300 units to be delivered on those fairly high-margin orders for which we have deposits in place, and we should recognize substantially all of these workforce housing orders in calendar year 2026. Another topic I would like to spend a minute on is the AmeriCasa litigation. We filed a lawsuit in March. Our claim is related to misrepresentations and omissions made in that acquisition, and we are early in the litigation. I am not exactly sure where it will end up, but the litigation was necessary because the acquisition we made last year was not panning out as we expected, in my view because items were either not disclosed or erroneously disclosed during the due diligence period. The litigation is not material to our consolidated financial position, liquidity, or operations. We will continue to evaluate the facts and circumstances regarding that acquisition, and I just want everybody to know that it is not going to be the savior to the company, but on the other hand it is not going to be very deleterious either. One other item that is worth flagging. In 2024, we came to an agreement with borrowers under which we received clear title to mobile home communities and a new $48.6 million short-term promissory note bearing interest at 7.9%. This note matures in July. We have been in contact with the borrower, and they have now made all required payments under that bridge loan. We are talking about taking a partial payment and renewing it. We are talking about what possible lending we are willing to do on a going-forward basis, and we still believe that there will not be any negative effect from this note, but we are in the process of negotiating and you never know how it might turn out. A couple of other closing thoughts that are really short. Q1 was a solid quarter, especially in light of the management transition that happened in the fourth quarter. Net income was up over 6%, and on a diluted earnings per share basis it was up 12%, somewhat because of our share repurchases and somewhat by the exit of executives that no longer have stock options. Our balance sheet is in great shape: $14 million of cash, essentially no debt, $539 million of stockholders’ equity, and an undrawn revolver. People look at us and say, my gosh, you have a clean balance sheet. We also are a one-entity company—no subsidiaries—and I think that is a very attractive place to be. The workforce housing orders are encouraging, especially here in Texas. The strength in our retail and direct sales reflects the strategy that we have been pursuing. Loan portfolios continue to be stable, and a growing earnings engine. Georgia continues to be a big question mark. We have managed to keep it running, but we do not have any workforce housing orders yet in Georgia, so we are relying on the old-fashioned selling to dealers and selling to parks and selling through our company stores. That does not have enough volume to keep us running at profitable production. As I have said before, Legacy Housing Corporation has never had a quarterly loss in our entire history, and 2026 has kept that streak going, as will Q2. We are conservatively capitalized, focused on long-term value creation, confident in our ability to weather some near-term volatility while positioning for long-term growth as housing affordability becomes more and more important to U.S. consumers and policymakers, especially if interest rates remain at 6% or above. Operator, that concludes our prepared remarks. Please open up the line for questions and answers. Operator: We will now open the call for questions. To ask a question, please press star one on your telephone and wait for your name to be announced. To withdraw your question, please press star one again. Our first question comes from Alexander Rygiel of Texas Capital Securities. Your line is open. Alexander Rygiel: Good afternoon, Curtis and Jon. Great to hear from you both. Curtis, I always appreciate your broader perspective on the economy and broader housing market trends. I am curious, in your views, how you think that has changed over the last three months? Curtis Hodgson: You know, on the 10,000-foot view, Alex, our demographics are not all that healthy. For the first year in history last year, we had more people moving out of the country than moving into the country, and our birth rate is below two. So on a 10,000-foot view, we do not need a lot of new bedrooms. We already have all we need. Growth is basically geographically very particular. We have growth in states like Texas and Florida, and we do not have growth in states like, you know, Indiana and Ohio. Fortunately, we do business south of the Mason-Dixon line, and we still have a growing demographic in the states that we do business. As an aside, Kenny and I got in this business in 1980, and from 1980 to 1982—young men that were not living through it have read your history books—that was the highest interest rate environment in the history of our company, where the prime rate of interest got all the way, I believe, to 18%. Those were very good years in the mobile home business because high interest rates lock consumers out of traditional site-built housing. Buying the $500,000 house at a 10% mortgage rate is prohibitive to almost anybody in this economy, which brings them down, just as it did in 1980–1982, to things that we sell. So higher interest rates are not a bad fact to the manufactured housing industry. If anything, they are a good fact. But we still struggle on where you are going to put the homes. We do not have a lot of vacant spaces in big cities. We do not have very many mobile home parks coming online. Although, as you know, we are trying to do things in Texas, we do not have a good answer to where we could put them. Lots of headwinds. And the industry itself has not grown in filling that void, and it has not grown in providing a neighborhood solution as the traditional homebuilders have, of which I know you follow many of them. So even now that we have what should be tailwinds, we have not done a very good job as an industry of imitating the site-built housing people and selling community solutions as opposed to, say, a Jim Walters solution—for those of you that are my age—where we are just providing a house and somebody else has to put in the garage, somebody else has to put in the landscape, somebody else has to put in the premises and the fence. We basically are providing part of the solution but not all the solution, whereas when you follow your site builders, they are solving almost all of the neighborhood problems. We are trying to morph into that with our huge development outside Boston, which has got a lot of good news this week, if anybody was paying attention. Within four miles of our location, we have thousands of jobs that have just been announced for the future. So that particular location I am very confident of, and we have made very little progress on other land holdings. I know I went above and beyond answering your question, but at least I did answer your question. Anything else, Alex? Alexander Rygiel: Yes, that was very helpful. Historically, the company has seen some positive seasonality after tax season. Since we are past that, can you comment on demand in April and early May? Curtis Hodgson: Sure. I do not know that we can stomach much more demand in Texas with all our orders already in place. We are probably already out to August or September. We would have to find somebody to move in the line to take more orders. We did get a little seasonality bump in Georgia. We were able to turn that spigot back on, but we do not have much backlog in Georgia. Without the data centers and without the oil field boom—which Georgia does not participate in hardly at all—the good old-fashioned mobile home business, the street dealers, and the parks is rather tepid. I do not mind going on record on this thing, and I think followers of my peer group have already figured it out based on the punishment that they gave the stock prices this week. But I did notice before the call that our stock was actually up on what I consider fair but not great reports. We are in good shape as a company, and our next two quarters should be pretty doggone impressive based on houses already built in that backyard that we are starting to ship to these major, major customers in Texas. To answer your question in summary, traditional demand is not great, but nontraditional demand like data centers and oilfield is as good as I have seen it ever since Rita-Katrina in 2005. So a lot of good news, but a little bit of bad news. Alexander Rygiel: One last question. As it relates to the workforce housing order that you have—that is fantastic—but turning the page, how do future prospects look, and when might we hear about other big orders into this market? Curtis Hodgson: In Texas, we are working several big orders—I mean huge orders—and none of them have turned into deposits yet, but we are working that angle. The big seven companies that are involved in data centers are making a multi-trillion-dollar commitment to this space. Compared to the stimulus that was given to the economy after COVID by the U.S. government, in size the stimulus that these seven are giving the economy is comparable to that stimulus, which was significant. So let us take a data center manufacturer. He is putting on his balance sheet an asset, but he is putting on my balance sheet income, as well as everybody in the construction business in this region. The fact that income is going to be up for everybody in this region is a pretty remarkable amount of stimulus. There is a little bit of that going on a nationwide basis, including Georgia, and even on a worldwide basis. But in our market—Texas and Louisiana—there is so much data center business that is actually going to happen by these seven companies investing mega capital that I think we are good probably all the way through 2027 and maybe beyond. So business is good in Texas. That is all I can tell you. Good to hear. Thank you very much. Operator: Thank you. As a reminder, if you have a question, please press star one. Our next question comes from Mark Smith of Lake Street. Your line is open. Mark Smith: Hi, guys. I wanted to ask for a little more detail, if you can, Curtis, on this workforce housing deal—any more insight you can give us on the size and maybe the timing of revenue recognition as we work through the year? Curtis Hodgson: I can do that. I would guess that we already have somewhere around 600 units with deposits in this category out of Texas, which is about half of our entire production last year in Texas—maybe even more than half. The orders actually started in December, but they were not ready for the houses. We needed the order, so we built them anyway. Of the 600, at least half of them will be shipped in Q2, with the remaining being shipped in Q3 and Q4. To Alex’s question, Mark, I tipped my hand and said we are in the process of taking even more orders. Think of the double whammy we have here, Mark. We have data centers all over the state of Texas, and we have West Texas crude selling at nearly $100 a barrel, which we have historically always gotten orders from whenever there is a boom in the oil field. If you can tell me when the Iran war is going to be over, what is going to happen to oil prices, I might have a different opinion. But if this $90 to $100 a barrel holds, we are not only going to have lots of orders for data centers, we are going to have lots of orders for the Permian Basin as well, and it will lift all boats. Every manufacturer is going to get a benefit. We are not uniquely qualified. There are 34 operating plants in the state of Texas, but we are all going to rise together. We will not need independent dealers like we have in the past. We will not even need our own company stores. Now, we will keep growing them, but I would rather build a past sale to Google than create too much inventory in my company stores in a rather tepid retail business. The theme remains the same, and if you have been following these calls—because I know you have been on them, Mark—all I am doing is backing up what I already predicted two calls ago with real numbers. We are in good shape for a long time. It will blossom in Q3 and Q4, and it is going to show up beginning in Q2. We may have three of the best quarters coming up in front of us. I do not like to overpromise and underdeliver. You have known me for eight or nine years, and you know that I am pretty conservative in these projections. But I know what is in the pack, and it would be nonsensical for me to not reveal it. We are going to have good three quarters. Mark Smith: The other one was just starting in Q2, it was a pretty impressive cut in SG&A this quarter, and I know there have been some changes there. Can you talk about the sustainability of SG&A—if there are further cuts or if, with the orders coming, there is some stuff that you need to add? Curtis Hodgson: I wish this were a video call because you would see a picture of me with a machete. I have just begun to cut SG&A, and everybody is supportive of that. Come on now, we basically have $500 million invested in paper. That does not take any SG&A, or hardly any. I am tired of SG&A growing in the company when the rest of the company is not growing. I would expect to see further declines in SG&A. I do not know how much we can get it down to because, as Jon correctly pointed out, SG&A is not just sales, general, and administrative; it includes things like warranty and reserves and provisions for loan losses—this all gets put in SG&A. From a pure people-and-expense—the S and the G and the A—I would expect further declines. But I do not know what our auditors are going to require for loan provisions that I think are nonsensical, and I do not know what skeletons are going to come up in the warranty department from yesteryear because we built some stuff that has been a legal issue. Part of our SG&A is still going to go down while part of it may not. I would expect maybe a 10% reduction by the end of the year in SG&A. Mark Smith: You spoke earlier about inflationary pressures and tariffs. Do you think your SG&A cuts are enough to make up for some of the inflationary pressures that you could see? And is there anywhere you can cut in COGS to get the product cost down? Curtis Hodgson: I have to go back to 10/20/30. The problem in the industry is all of the major manufacturers have been trying to build a cheaper product, and any time they can take $10 out, they consider it a triumph. The natural result is the product loses desirability. It does not have basic features, like, say, medicine cabinets. We have taken a different tack. We are not going to build the cheapest one if possible. We will build to the middle of the market, and just recently we began to prove that theory out at the retail level with our company stores. We are not good at competing in a fire-sale into who can sell the cheapest one for the lowest margin, because that is a recipe for failure. We are going to abandon that philosophy and concentrate on the middle market. The market needs to do more like the site-built housing and turn into more of a turnkey solution to housing and get off the idea that the guy has to buy his own medicine cabinet, if you know what I mean. That is a little periphrastic to your question, but it is responsive. Mark Smith: Maybe another part to ask is, with changes in immigration and your own workforce, are you seeing pressure on labor and your ability to hit new production goals? Curtis Hodgson: As the younger generation would say, Mark, 100%. Deportations have hurt our sales to the Spanish market, and I think that is unfortunate, but it is okay. The interesting fact is our retail portfolio, which is 70% Hispanic, is behaving incredibly well. We have not experienced a big uptick in repossessions—maybe a little bit. I would say we are now repossessing roughly 4% per year, but that is the historical norm in this industry. When we were repossessing at only 2% per year, it was because there was this quantum leap in prices during COVID, and everybody was right-side up in what they owed on their mobile home. Those increases in prices ended four years ago. In four years, we have had no substantial increase in prices in this industry since COVID. Because of the loans made in 2022, 2023, 2024, and 2025, we have consumers that are not well covered by the value of their mobile home, and I think that is the reason why repossessions are increasing back to historical norms. Deportations are not affecting our loan portfolio, but they are affecting the sentiment of people and whether they want to buy a mobile home with the threat that some family member may be deported and they do not want to go back home with them. So it has affected who we sell to retail and how we sell to them, but it has not affected our portfolio. I think that answers your question. Operator: Thank you. I am showing no further questions at this time. I would like to turn it back to Curtis Hodgson for closing remarks. Curtis Hodgson: Sure. Thanks, everybody who joined the call today. I appreciate your interest in our company. That ends the call from my perspective. Operator: This concludes today’s conference call. Thank you for participating, and you may now disconnect.
