(NASDAQ: NOBH) announced sales and earnings results for its third quarter ended July 31, 2004. Sales for the third quarter were up 30% to $12,310,878 as compared to $9,465,179 recorded in third quarter of 2003. Income from operations increased 107% to $1,670,160 versus $808,164 in the same period a year ago. Net income after taxes was up 93% to $1,220,138 as compared to $633,730 for the same period last year. Diluted earnings per share for the third quarter improved 88% to $0.30 per share compared to $0.16 per share last year. For the first nine months of fiscal 2004, sales increased 35% to $35,621,719 as compared to sales of $26,302,356 in the first nine months of last fiscal year. Income from operations for the first nine months improved 68% to $4,276,005 versus $2,542,522 in the same period last year. Net income increased 52% to $3,157,376 versus last year's results of $2,079,092. Diluted earnings per share were up 48% to $0.77 per share versus last year's nine months results of $0.52 per share. Nobility's financial position continued to improve during the third quarter of 2004 and remains very strong with cash and cash equivalents, short and long-term investments of $17,358,976 and no outstanding debt. Working capital is $14,567,824 and our ratio of current assets to current liabilities is 3.8:1. Stockholders' equity increased to $29,716,464 and the book value per share of common stock increased to $7.40. The Company did not purchase any shares of its common stock during the third quarter of 2004 but is authorized by the Company's Board of Directors to purchase up to 100,000 additional shares of the Company's stock in the open market. "Third quarter sales of fiscal 2004 were strong even with tight retail credit standards still evident; improving, but high unemployment; and uncertain economic conditions present in our country. Latest three-month manufactured housing industry shipments nationwide, declined an estimated 6%, and industry shipments in Florida, our primary market, were up an estimated 16%", President Terry Trexler said. Trexler continued, "Although Nobility continues to out-perform the industry, in the near term we anticipate continued pressure on both sales and earnings resulting from these factors, plus continuous price increases in lumber, OSB, sheetrock, steel and oil related products and services. Management is optimistic for the remainder of fiscal 2004, convinced that our specific geographic market is one of the best long-term growth areas in the country and because of the strong operating leverage inherent in the Company. With an improving economy, better consumer confidence, declining unemployment claims, and increasing but still low interest rates in 2004, management expects the demand for our homes to improve. Increase demand also could result from building replacement homes due to the recent hurricanes in Florida. The Company is well positioned to capitalize on the demand in the future by controlling the retail distribution, financing, and insuring of our homes and by being financially sound to take advantage of opportunities as they develop." Nobility Homes, Inc. has specialized for the past 37 years in the design and production of quality, affordable manufactured homes at its two plants located in central Florida. With 17 Company owned retail sales centers, a finance company joint venture, and an insurance subsidiary, Nobility is the only vertically integrated manufactured home company headquartered in Florida.
