FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

CAVCO INDUSTRIES REPORTS SECOND QUARTER RESULTS
Sales increase 22% to $47.1 million
Net income up 65% to $3.5 million

PHOENIX, AZ — (October 27, 2005) – Cavco Industries, Inc. (NASDAQ: CVCO) today announced financial results for the second quarter and first six months of fiscal 2006 ended September 30, 2005.

     Net sales for the second quarter of fiscal 2006 rose 22% to $47,091,000 from $38,635,000 for the second quarter last year.

     Net income for the second quarter increased 65% to $3,517,000 compared with $2,131,000 in the same period one year ago. Net income per share for the second quarter this year was $0.56 versus $0.34 last year based on basic weighted average shares outstanding and $0.52 versus $0.33 per share based on diluted weighted average shares. The prior year included $0.03 per diluted share in income from discontinued retail operations.

     For the first six months of fiscal 2006, net sales climbed 25% to $92,967,000 from $74,572,000 for the same period last year. Net income for the first six months of this year was up 84% to $7,059,000 versus $3,838,000 for the comparable prior year period. Net income per share was $1.12 based on basic weighted average shares outstanding and $1.06 per share based on diluted weighted average shares for the first six months this year versus $0.61 and $0.59, respectively, for the six-month period in the prior year.

     Commenting on the quarter, Joseph Stegmayer, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer, said, “These results represented the best second quarter in the company’s history. All three manufacturing plants performed well, benefiting from strong demand and an excellent product mix. Profit margins were also positively affected by the fact that selling price increases, initiated earlier this calendar year, worked their way through our order backlog to favorably impact the quarter.”

     Mr. Stegmayer continued, “The first half of fiscal 2006 has been even better than we anticipated. We look for continued good results in the last six months of the year although the comparisons will be to increasingly strong results in the third and fourth quarters of last year. The greatest concern for the months ahead is the availability and price of the raw materials and components we buy. The escalating cost environment we have experienced for the past eighteen months has been further stimulated by the natural disasters in the United States and abroad. In addition to the terrible human toll taken by these catastrophes, the vast destruction of property and subsequent re-building efforts is predicted to cause sustained material shortages and price increases.”

     Cavco also announced that it has amended its revolving credit facility with JPMorgan Chase Bank N.A. to eliminate and modify certain covenants to provide more flexibility in the facility.

     Cavco’s senior management will hold a conference call to review these results tomorrow, October 28, 2005, at 1:00 p.m. (Eastern Time). Interested parties can access a live webcast of the conference call on the Internet at http://phx.corporate-ir.net/playerlink.zhtml?c=145386&s=wm&e=1149933. An archive of the webcast and presentation will be available for 90 days at this website.

     Cavco Industries, Inc., headquartered in Phoenix, is the largest producer of manufactured homes in Arizona, based on wholesale shipments. The Company is also a leading producer of park model homes and vacation cabins in the United States.
