Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited)

Note 1 Basis of Presentation and Accounting Policies

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements for the three months ended February 1, 2014 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 operations for the three months ended February 1, 2014 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 financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended November 2, 2013.

Note 2 Inventories

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. In addition, an allocation of depreciation and amortization is included in cost of goods sold. 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 market value.

Pre-owned inventory is valued at the lower of the Company’s cost to acquire the inventory plus refurbishment costs incurred to date to bring the inventory to a more saleable state, or market value.

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

	February 1, 2014			November 2, 2013
Raw materials	$	578,385		$	571,621

Note 3 Short-term Investments

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

	February 1, 2014
	Amortized Cost		Gross Unrealized Gains		Gross Unrealized Losses		Estimated Fair Value
Equity securities in a public company	$	167,930	$	305,245	$	—	$	473,175

	November 2, 2013
	Amortized Cost		Gross Unrealized Gains		Gross Unrealized Losses		Estimated Fair Value
Equity securities in a public company	$	167,930	$	287,302	$	—	$	455,232

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

Note 4 Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivables, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximates fair value because of the short maturity of those instruments. Short-term investments (available for sale) are carried at fair value.

FASB ASC No. 820 “Fair Value Measurements” 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 No. 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 No. 820 fair value hierarchy is defined as follows:

• Level 1 - Valuations are based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

7

• Level 2 - Valuations are based on quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, or quoted prices in markets that are not active for which significant inputs are observable, either directly or indirectly.

• Level 3 - Valuations are based on prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement. Inputs reflect management’s best estimate of what market participants would use in valuing the asset or liability at the measurement date.

The following tables present the Company’s assets and liabilities which are measured at fair value on a recurring basis at February 1, 2014 and November 2, 2013.

	February 1, 2014
	Level 1		Level 2		Level 3

Note 5 Investments in Retirement Community Limited Partnerships

The Company’s investment in retirement community limited partnerships includes a 31.3% interest in Walden Woods South LLC (“Walden Woods”) and a 48.5% interest in CRF III, Ltd. (“Cypress Creek”). The Cypress Creek investment is $428,533 and $467,934 at February 1, 2014 and November 2, 2013, respectively. The Walden Woods investment is zero at both February 1, 2014 and November 2, 2013.

The following is summarized financial information of Walden Woods and Cypress Creek*:

	December 31,			September 30,
	2013			2013
Total Assets	$	13,596,015		$	13,559,275
Total Liabilities	$	15,509,994		$	15,231,044
Total Equity	$	(1,913,979	)	$	(1,671,769	)

* Due to Walden Woods and Cypress Creek having a calendar year-end, the summarized financial information provided is from their most recent quarter prior to the period covered by this report.

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:

	Three Months Ended
	February 1, 2014			February 2, 2013
Beginning accrued warranty expense	$	75,000		$	75,000
Less: reduction for payments		(43,005	)		(42,813	)
Plus: additions to accrual		43,005			42,813
Ending accrued warranty expense	$	75,000		$	75,000

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.

Note 7 Earnings Per Share

Basic net income per share is computed by dividing net income available to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted net income per share is computed similarly to basic net income per share except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional shares that would have been outstanding if the potential common shares had been issued and if the additional common shares were dilutive. For the three months ended February 1, 2014 and February 2, 2013, options to purchase 18,750 and 54,150 shares, respectively, have been excluded from the computation of potentially dilutive securities as the effect on earnings per share is antidilutive.

Note 8 Revenues by Products and Service

Revenues by net sales from manufactured housing, insurance agent commissions and construction lending operations are as follows:

	Three Months Ended
	February 1, 2014		February 2, 2013
Manufactured housing	$	3,303,205	$	3,047,999
Trade in and other pre-owned homes		841,012		306,086
Insurance agent commissions		44,125		41,012
Construction lending operations		3,087		6,570
Total net sales	$	4,191,429	$	3,401,667

9. Commitments and Contingent Liabilities

Majestic 21 –The Company has a 50% interest in Majestic 21, a joint venture with an unrelated entity (21^st Mortgage Corporation) (“21^st Mortgage”). The Company is a 50% guarantor on a $5 million note payable entered into by Majestic 21. 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 which matures on the earlier of May 31, 2019 or when the principal balance is less than $750,000. The amount of the guarantee declines with the amortization and repayment of the loan. As collateral for the loan, 21^st Mortgage 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 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 February 1, 2014, the outstanding principal balance of the note was $1,929,700 and the amount of collateral was $2,693,561. 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.

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

Results of Operations

The following table summarizes certain key sales statistics and percent of gross profit for the three and nine months ended February 1, 2014 and February 2, 2013.

	Three Months Ended
	February 1, 2014			February 2, 2013
Homes sold through Company owned sales centers		25			18
Pre-owned homes sold through Company owned sales centers		11			5
Homes sold to independent dealers		44			52
Total new factory built homes produced		86			65
Average new manufactured home price - retail	$	59,326		$	57,093
Average new manufactured home price - wholesale	$	31,565		$	27,504
As a percent of net sales:
Gross profit from the Company owned retail sales centers		14	%		15	%
Gross profit from the manufacturing facilities - including intercompany sales		12	%		13	%

Total revenues in the first quarter of 2014 were $4,191,429, up 23% compared to $3,401,667 in the first quarter of 2013, which includes sales of pre-owned homes of $690,338 and $241,923, respectively. Sales to two publicly traded REIT’S and other companies which own multiple retirement communities in our market area accounted for approximately 20% and 38% of our sales for the three months ended February 1, 2014 and February 2, 2013, respectively. Accounts receivable due from these customers were approximately $625,303 at February 1, 2014.

Our sales are affected by the strength of the U.S. economy, interest rates and employment levels, consumer confidence and the availability of retail financing. We believe the lack of retail financing for manufactured housing continues to have a negative effect on our sales, although the overall economy has shown improvement. According to the Florida Manufactured Housing Association, shipments in Florida for the period from November 2013 through January 2014 were up approximately 12% from the same period last year. Although shipments increased, the intermediate outlook for the manufactured housing industry in Florida and the nation is uncertain. The long-term demographic trends still favor future growth in the Florida market area we serve. Management remains convinced that our specific geographic market is one of the best long-term growth areas in the country. The country must experience a better economy with less uncertainty, continued improved sales in the existing home market, declining unemployment, increased consumer confidence and more retail financing for the sales of our affordable homes, for the Company to improve significantly.

We understand that during this very complex economic environment, maintaining our strong financial position is vital for future growth and success. Because of the recent historically poor business conditions in our market

11

area and the lack of any clarity as to when today’s economic challenges will improve measurably, we will continue to evaluate Prestige’s retail model centers in Florida, along with all other expenses and react in a manner consistent with maintaining our strong financial position.

We have specialized for 46 years in the design and production of quality, affordable manufactured homes at our plant located in central Florida. With our multiple retail sales centers, an insurance subsidiary, and investments in retirement manufactured home communities, we are the only vertically integrated manufactured home company headquartered in Florida.

Insurance agent commission revenues in the first quarter of 2014 were $44,125 compared to $41,012 in the first quarter of 2013. The increase in insurance agent commission’s resulted from an increase in new policies written and renewals as the result of increased home sales. 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 is deemed necessary for policy cancellations at February 1, 2014 and November 2, 2013.

The revenues from construction lending operations in first quarter of 2014 were $3,087 compared to $6,570 in the first quarter of 2013. The decrease in revenues was due a change in legislation that affected homes financed with a construction loan. Therefore, we expect these revenues to decrease in the future.

Gross profit as a percentage of net sales was 18% in first quarter of 2014 compared to 16% in first quarter of 2013. The increase in gross profit was primarily due a more profitable mix of homes sold at the retail sales centers.

Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percent of net sales was 16% in first quarter of 2014 and 2013. We have continued our efforts to reduce selling, general and administrative expenses even as our revenues increase.

Our earnings from Majestic 21 in the first quarter of 2014 were $32,331, compared to $17,236 for the first quarter of 2013. The earnings from Majestic 21 represent the allocation of profit and losses which are owned 50% by 21st Mortgage and 50% by the Company. The increase in earnings is due to the lower cost of funds on the portfolio.

We earned interest on cash and cash equivalents in the amount of $9,832 for the first quarter of 2014 compared to $5,539 for the first quarter of 2013. Interest income is dependent on our cash balance and available rates of return.

We reported non-cash losses from our investment in a retirement community limited partnerships of $39,401 for the first quarter of 2014 compared to $46,337 for the first quarter of 2013. We expect similar losses for the remainder of 2014 as the communities continue to see slow but, improving growth in new home sales.

We reported net income of $103,402 for the first quarter of 2014, or $0.03 per share, compared to a net income of $4,845, or $0.00 per share, for the first quarter of 2013.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash and cash equivalents were $11,628,025 at February 1, 2014 compared to $10,468,453 at November 2, 2013. Short-term investments were $473,175 at February 1, 2014 compared to $455,232 at November 2, 2013.

12

Working capital was $20,733,501 at February 1, 2014 as compared to $19,869,747 at November 2, 2013. 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.

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 $2.7 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 February 1, 2014, the Company continued to report a strong balance sheet which included total assets of approximately $37 million which was funded primarily by stockholders’ equity of approximately $35 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. Although Nobility believes that the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions, there are risks and uncertainties that may cause actual results to differ materially from expectations. These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, competitive pricing pressures at both the wholesale and retail levels, increasing material costs, continued excess retail inventory, increase in repossessions, changes in market demand, changes in interest rates, availability of financing for retail and wholesale purchasers, consumer confidence, adverse weather conditions that reduce sales at retail centers, the risk of manufacturing plant shutdowns due to storms or other factors, the impact of marketing and cost-management programs, reliance on the Florida economy, impact of labor shortage, impact of materials shortage, increasing labor cost, cyclical nature of the manufactured housing industry, impact of rising fuel costs, catastrophic events impacting insurance costs, availability of insurance coverage for various risks to Nobility, market demographics, management’s ability to attract and retain executive officers and key personnel, increased global tensions, market disruptions resulting from terrorist or other attack and any armed conflict involving the United States and the impact of inflation.

The Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a – 15e and 15d – 15e under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) (the “Exchange Act”) as of the end of the period covered by this report (the “Evaluation Date”). Based on their evaluation as of the Evaluation Date, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective for the period ended February 1, 2014.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting. We made no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f)) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) identified in connection with the evaluation of our internal controls that occurred during our last fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or which is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Note 4 Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivables, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximates fair value because of the short maturity of those instruments. Short-term investments (available for sale) are carried at fair value.

FASB ASC No. 820 “Fair Value Measurements” 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 No. 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 No. 820 fair value hierarchy is defined as follows:

• Level 1 - Valuations are based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

• Level 2 - Valuations are based on quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, or quoted prices in markets that are not active for which significant inputs are observable, either directly or indirectly.

• Level 3 - Valuations are based on prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement. Inputs reflect management’s best estimate of what market participants would use in valuing the asset or liability at the measurement date.

The following tables present the Company’s assets and liabilities which are measured at fair value on a recurring basis at February 1, 2014 and November 2, 2013.

Inventories

Note 2 Inventories

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. In addition, an allocation of depreciation and amortization is included in cost of goods sold. 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 market value.

Pre-owned inventory is valued at the lower of the Company’s cost to acquire the inventory plus refurbishment costs incurred to date to bring the inventory to a more saleable state, or market value.

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

Earnings Per Share [Abstract]

Earnings Per Share

Note 7 Earnings Per Share

Basic net income per share is computed by dividing net income available to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted net income per share is computed similarly to basic net income per share except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional shares that would have been outstanding if the potential common shares had been issued and if the additional common shares were dilutive. For the three months ended February 1, 2014 and February 2, 2013, options to purchase 18,750 and 54,150 shares, respectively, have been excluded from the computation of potentially dilutive securities as the effect on earnings per share is antidilutive.

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.

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]

Fair Value Measurements

FASB ASC No. 820 “Fair Value Measurements” 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 No. 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 No. 820 fair value hierarchy is defined as follows:

• Level 1 - Valuations are based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

• Level 2 - Valuations are based on quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, or quoted prices in markets that are not active for which significant inputs are observable, either directly or indirectly.

• Level 3 - Valuations are based on prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement. Inputs reflect management’s best estimate of what market participants would use in valuing the asset or liability at the measurement date.

Commitments and Contingent Liabilities

9. Commitments and Contingent Liabilities

Majestic 21 –The Company has a 50% interest in Majestic 21, a joint venture with an unrelated entity (21^st Mortgage Corporation) (“21^st Mortgage”). The Company is a 50% guarantor on a $5 million note payable entered into by Majestic 21. 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 which matures on the earlier of May 31, 2019 or when the principal balance is less than $750,000. The amount of the guarantee declines with the amortization and repayment of the loan. As collateral for the loan, 21^st Mortgage 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 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 February 1, 2014, the outstanding principal balance of the note was $1,929,700 and the amount of collateral was $2,693,561. 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.
