Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited)

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Nobility Homes, Inc. (“Nobility”), its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Prestige Home Centers, Inc. (“Prestige”) Nobility Parks I, LLC, Nobility Parks II, LLC and Prestige’s wholly-owned subsidiaries, Mountain Financial, Inc., an independent insurance agency and licensed mortgage loan originator and Majestic Homes, Inc., (collectively the “Company”). The Company is engaged in the manufacture and sale of manufactured and modular homes to various dealerships, including its own retail sales centers, and manufactured housing communities throughout Florida. The Company has one manufacturing plant in operation that is located in Ocala, Florida. At November 5, 2016 Prestige operated ten Florida retail sales centers: Ocala (2), Chiefland, Auburndale, Inverness, Hudson, Tavares, Yulee, Panama City and Punta Gorda.

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements as of and for the three and nine months ended August 5, 2017 have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission for Form 10-Q. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements.

The unaudited financial information included in this report includes all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to reflect a fair statement of the results for the interim periods. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended August 5, 2017 are not necessarily indicative of the results of the full fiscal year.

The condensed consolidated financial statements included in this report should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended November 5, 2016.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements – In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2016-02, “Leases” (ASU 2016-02). The core principle of ASU 2016-02 is that an entity should recognize on its balance sheet assets and liabilities arising from a lease. In accordance with that principle, ASU 2016-02 requires that a lessee recognize a liability to make lease payments (the lease liability) and a right-of-use asset representing its right to use the underlying leased asset for the lease term. The recognition, measurement, and presentation of expenses and cash flows arising from a lease by a lessee will depend on the lease classification as finance or operating lease. This new accounting guidance is effective for public companies for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018 (i.e., calendar years beginning on January 1, 2019), including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The Company believes the implementation of this guidance will have no material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In November 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-17 “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes” (ASU 2015-17). ASU 2015-17 simplifies the presentation of deferred income taxes by eliminating the separate classification of deferred income tax liabilities and assets into current and noncurrent amounts in the consolidated balance sheet statement of financial position. The amendments in the update require that all deferred tax liabilities and assets be classified as noncurrent in the consolidated balance sheet. The amendments in this update are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and

6

Table of Contents

interim periods therein and may be applied either prospectively or retrospectively to all periods presented. Early adoption is permitted. The Company has not adopted ASU 2015-17 and believes the implementation of this guidance will have no material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-11, “Inventory (Topic 330): Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory”. The amendments require an entity to measure in scope inventory at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Net realizable value is the estimated selling prices in the ordinary course of business, less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal, and transportation. Subsequent measurement is unchanged for inventory measured using LIFO or the retail inventory method. The amendments do not apply to inventory that is measured using last-in, first-out (LIFO) or the retail inventory method. The amendments apply to all other inventory, which includes inventory that is measured using first-in, first-out (FIFO) or average cost. The amendments in this update are effective for public companies for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016. The Company does not expect this amendment to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)”, which requires an entity to recognize revenue from the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The guidance addresses, in particular, contracts with more than one performance obligation, as well as the accounting for some costs to obtain or fulfill a contract with a customer; and provides for additional disclosures with respect to revenues and cash flows arising from contracts with customers. In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-14 which deferred the effective date of ASU 2014-09 for all entities by one year. With respect to public entities, this update is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2017 and early adoption is permitted for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016. The Company believes the implementation of this guidance will have no material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

New home inventory is carried at the lower of cost or market value. The cost of finished home inventories determined on the specific identification method is removed from inventories and recorded as a component of cost of sales at the time revenue is recognized. Under the specific identification method, if finished home inventory can be sold for a profit there is no basis to write down the inventory below the lower of cost or fair market value.

The Company acquired certain repossessed pre-owned inventory (Buy Back Inventory) in 2011 as part of an Amendment of the Finance Revenue Sharing Agreement (FRSA) agreement with 21^st Mortgage Corporation. This inventory is valued at the Company’s cost to acquire determined on the specific identification method, plus refurbishment costs (any item on the home that needs to be repaired or replaced) incurred to date to bring the inventory to a more saleable state. The Buy Back inventory amount is reduced where necessary on a unit specific basis by a valuation reserve which management believes results in inventory being valued at market.

Other pre-owned homes are acquired (Repossessions Inventory) as a convenience to the Company’s joint venture partner, 21st Mortgage Corporation. This inventory has been repossessed by 21^st Mortgage Corporation or through mortgage foreclosure. The Company acquired this inventory at the amount of the uncollected balance of the financing at the time of the foreclosure/repossessions by 21st Mortgage Corporation. The Company records this inventory at cost determined on the specific identification method. All of the refurbishment costs are paid by 21^st Mortgage Corporation. This arrangement assists 21^st Mortgage Corporation with liquidation of their repossessed inventory. The timing of these repurchases by the Company is unpredictable as it is based on the repossessions 21^st Mortgage Corporation incurs in the portfolio. When the

Table of Contents

home is sold, the Company retains the cost of the home, an interest factor on the cost of the home and a sales commission for the sale of the home, from the sales proceeds. Any additional proceeds are paid to 21^st Mortgage. Any shortfall from the proceeds to cover these amounts is paid by 21^st Mortgage to the Company. As the Company has no risk of loss on the sale, there is no valuation allowance necessary for this inventory.

Pre-owned homes are also taken as trade-ins on new home sales (Trade-in Inventory). This inventory is recorded at estimated actual wholesale value which is generally lower then market value, determined on the specific identification method, plus refurbishment costs incurred to date to bring the inventory to a more saleable state. The Trade-in inventory amount is reduced where necessary on a unit specific basis by a valuation reserve which management believes results in inventory being valued at market.

Other inventory costs are determined on a first-in, first-out basis.

A breakdown of the elements of inventory is as follows:

The following is a summary of short-term investments (available for sale):

The fair values were estimated based on quoted market prices in active markets at each respective period end.

Table of Contents

The carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents, accounts and notes receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximates fair value because of the short maturity of those instruments.

The Company accounts for the fair value of financial investments in accordance with FASB Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) No. 820 “Fair Value Measurements” (ASC 820).

ASC 820 defines fair value as the price that would be received upon the sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability (i.e. exit price) in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. ASC 820 requires disclosures that categorize assets and liabilities measured at fair value into one of three different levels depending on the assumptions (i.e. inputs) used in the valuation. Financial assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input significant to the fair value measurement. The ASC 820 fair value hierarchy is defined as follows:

The following tables represent the Company’s financial assets and liabilities which are carried at fair value.

The Company has a 31.3% limited partnership interest in Walden Woods South LLC (“Walden Woods”), which owns and operates a retirement community. The Company’s investment in Walden Woods is fully impaired at August 5, 2017 and November 5, 2016.

The following is summarized financial information of Walden Woods*:

Note 6     Warranty Costs

The Company provides for a limited warranty as the manufactured homes are sold. Amounts related to these warranties are as follows:

The Company’s limited warranty covers substantial defects in material or workmanship in specified components of the home including structural elements, plumbing systems, electrical systems, and heating and cooling systems which are supplied by the Company that may occur under normal use and service during a period of twelve (12) months from the date of delivery to the original homeowner, and applies to the original homeowner or any subsequent homeowner to whom this product is transferred during the duration of this twelve (12) month period.

The Company tracks the warranty claims per home. Based on the history of the warranty claims, the Company has determined that a majority of warranty claims usually occur within the first three months after the home is sold. The Company determines its warranty accrual using the last three months of home sales. Accrued warranty costs are included in accrued expenses in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

Note 7     Net Income per Share

These financial statements include “basic” and “diluted” net income per share information for all periods presented. The basic net income per share is calculated by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of shares outstanding. The diluted net income per share is calculated by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of shares outstanding, adjusted for dilutive common shares.

Note 8     Revenues by Products and Service

Revenues by net sales from manufactured housing, pre-owned homes and insurance agent commissions are as follows:

Majestic 21 – On May 20, 2009, the Company became a 50% guarantor on a $5 million note payable entered into by Majestic 21, a joint venture in which the Company owns a 50% interest. This guarantee was a requirement of the bank that provided the $5 million loan to Majestic 21. The $5 million guarantee of Majestic 21’s debt is for the life of the note. The note matures on May 31, 2019. The amount of the guarantee declines with the amortization and repayment of the loan. As collateral for the loan, 21^st Mortgage Corporation (our joint venture partner) has granted the lender a security interest in a pool of loans encumbering homes sold by Prestige Homes Centers, Inc. If the pool of loans securing this note should decrease in value so that the notes outstanding principal balance is in excess of 80% of the principal balance of the pool of loans, then Majestic 21 would have to pay down the note’s principal balance to an amount that is no more than 80% of the principal balance of the pool of loans. The Company and 21^st Mortgage Corporation are obligated jointly to contribute the amount necessary to bring the loan balance back down to 80% of the collateral provided. We do not anticipate any required contributions as the pool of loans securing the note have historically been in excess of 100% of the collateral value. As of August 5, 2017, the outstanding principal balance of the note was $631,292 and the amount of collateral held by our joint venture partner for the Majestic 21 note payable was $1,585,588. Based upon management’s analysis, the fair value of the guarantee is not material and as a result, no liability for the guarantee has been recorded in the accompanying balance sheets of the Company.

On March 10, 2017 the Board of Directors declared a one-time cash dividend of $.15 per common share to stockholders of record as of March 27, 2017. The cash dividend was paid from our cash reserves on April 17, 2017 in the amount of $600,726.

Results of Operations

Total revenues in the third quarter of 2017 were $8,906,385 compared to $9,779,621 in the third quarter of 2016. Total net sales for the first nine months of 2017 were $27,525,855 up 9% compared to $25,269,511 for the first nine months of 2016. Sales declined due to a significant amount of rain during the quarter which delayed the completion of construction, ultimately delaying fundings at Prestige. Additionally, the increase in business, industry wide, has placed pressure on the limited capacity of sub-contractors necessary for the site-work portion of the construction of our homes. Our retail sold homes under construction in the field increased 123% over the third quarter last year.

The following table summarizes certain key sales statistics and percent of gross profit.

Sales to two publicly traded REITs and other companies which own multiple retirement communities in our market area accounted for approximately 10% and 19% of our sales for the first nine months ended August 5, 2017 and July 30, 2016, respectively. Accounts receivable due from these customers were approximately $863,664 at August 5, 2017.

The demand for affordable manufactured housing in Florida and the U.S. continues to improve. According to the Florida Manufactured Housing Association, shipments in Florida for the period from November 2016 through July 2017 were up approximately 7% from the same period last year. Our sales and earnings continue to be affected by the lack of available retail and wholesale financing. Constrained consumer credit and the lack of lenders in the industry, partly as a result of an increase in government regulations, have limited many manufactured housing buyers from purchasing affordable manufactured homes.

We believe maintaining our strong financial position is vital for future growth and success. Because of the recent years of very challenging business conditions in our market area, management continues to evaluate all expenses and react in a manner consistent with maintaining our strong financial position, while exploring opportunities to expand our distribution and manufacturing operations.

Our many years of experience in the Florida market, combined with home buyers’ increased need for more affordable housing, should serve the Company well in the coming years. Management remains convinced that our specific geographic market is one of the best long-term growth areas in the country.

The Company has specialized for over 50 years in the design and production of quality, affordable manufactured homes at its plant located in central Florida. With multiple retail sales centers, an insurance agency subsidiary, and an investment in a retirement manufactured home community, we are the only vertically integrated manufactured home company headquartered in Florida.

Insurance agent commission revenues in the third quarter of 2017 were $62,250 compared to $62,921 in the second quarter of 2016. Total insurance agent commission revenues for the first nine months of 2017 were $203,452 compared to $179,352 for the first nine months of 2016. The insurance agent commissions resulted from new policies and renewals generated. The Company establishes appropriate reserves for policy cancellations based on numerous factors, including past transaction history with customers, historical experience and other information, which is periodically evaluated and adjusted as deemed necessary. In the opinion of management, no reserve was deemed necessary for policy cancellations at August 5, 2017 and November 5, 2016.

Gross profit as a percentage of net sales was 22% in third quarters of 2017 and 2016 and was 23% for the first nine months of 2017 and 2016. The gross profit in third quarter of 2017 was $1,963,592 compared to $2,180,551 in the third quarter of 2016 and was $6,386,541 for the first nine months of 2017 compared to $5,902,554 for the first nine months of 2016. The gross profit is dependent on the sales mix of wholesale and retail homes and number of pre-owned homes sold. The increase in gross profit for the nine months ended of 2017 is primarily due to the increase in the overall number of homes sold.

Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percent of net sales was 12% in third quarter of 2017 compared to 10% in the third quarter of 2016 and was 11% in third quarters of 2017 and 2016. Selling, general and administrative expenses in third quarter of 2017 was $1,028,729 compared to $940,059 in the third quarter of 2016 and was $3,118,602 for the first nine months of 2017 compared to $2,732,452 for the first nine months of 2016. The dollar increase in expenses resulted from the increase in compensation expenses directly related to our increased overall sales.

We earned interest of $33,543 for the third quarter of 2017 compared to $43,155 for the third quarter of 2016. For the first nine months of 2017, interest earned was $105,347 compared to $77,246 in the first nine months of 2016. The increase is primarily due to the accrued interest from the note receivable acquired in the sale of the investment in retirement community.

Our earnings from Majestic 21 in the third quarter of 2017 were $24,037 compared to $28,429, for the third quarter of 2016. Our earnings from Majestic 21 for the first nine months of 2017 were $80,758 compared to $97,539 for the first nine months of 2016. The earnings from Majestic 21 represent the allocation of profit and losses which are owned 50% by 21st Mortgage and 50% by the Company.

We received payment under an escrow arrangement related to the finance revenue sharing agreement between 21^st Mortgage Corporation and the Company of $298,824 and $788,566 for the third quarters of 2017 and 2016 respectively.

The Company recorded an income tax expense in the amount of $414,177 in the third quarter of 2017 as compared to $423,364 in third quarter 2016. Income tax expense for the nine months of 2017 was $1,305,563 compared to $2,904,304 for the third quarter of 2016. Our income tax expense for the first nine months of 2016 was significantly increased due to the gain from the sale of our investment in a retirement community.

We reported net income of $669,883 for the third quarter of 2017 or $0.17 per share, compared to $894,271 or $0.22 per share, for the third quarter of 2016. For the first nine months of 2017 net income was $2,480,715 or $0.62 per share, compared to $5,244,553 or $1.30 per share, in the first nine months of 2016.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash and cash equivalents were $25,607,071 at August 5, 2017 compared to $24,562,638 at November 5, 2016. Short-term investments were $630,731 at August 5, 2017 compared to $481,025 at November 5, 2016. Working capital was $35,238,837 at August 5, 2017 as compared to $32,761,352 at November 5, 2016. We own the entire inventory for our Prestige retail sales centers which includes new, pre-owned and repossessed or foreclosed homes and do not incur any third party floor plan financing expenses. The Company has no material commitments for capital expenditures.

On March 10, 2017 the Board of Directors declared a one-time cash dividend of $.15 per common share to stockholders of record as of March 27, 2017. The cash dividend was paid from our cash reserves on April 17, 2017 in the amount of $600,726.

We view our liquidity as our total cash and short term investments. We currently have no line of credit facility and we do not believe that such a facility is currently necessary for our operations. We have no debt. We also have approximately $3 million of cash surrender value of life insurance which we could access as an additional source of liquidity though we have not currently viewed this to be necessary. As of August 5, 2017, the Company continued to report a strong balance sheet which included total assets of approximately $52 million and stockholders’ equity of approximately $47 million.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

In Item 7 of our Form 10-K, under the heading “Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates,” we have provided a discussion of the critical accounting policies and estimates that management believes affect its more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our Consolidated Financial Statements. No significant changes have occurred since that time.

Forward-Looking Statements

Certain statements in this report are forward-looking statements within the meaning of the federal securities laws.
