    Deals & partnerships

    1
    AmeriCasa sellersAcquisition of a manufactured housing business

    Assets acquired in late 2025. The company filed suit against the sellers in March over alleged misrepresentations and post-closing misappropriation of receipts. Sellers have filed counterclaims. Outcome is uncertain, but could lead to adjustments to provisional acquisition accounting.

    Risks & headwinds

    6
    Decline in inventory finance salesQ2 FY26

    $10.1M or 74% decrease

    Mitigation: Dealers working through existing inventory; company beefing up sales departments to penetrate park business and independent dealers.

    Increase in effective tax rateSecond half of FY26

    Expected to move closer to 21% statutory rate

    Mitigation: Due to termination of Section 45L federal energy-efficient home tax credit.

    AmeriCasa litigation uncertaintyFuture periods

    Potential adjustments to provisional acquisition accounting

    Mitigation: Company believes counterclaims are without merit; outcome is uncertain.

    Mobile home park note maturity and modificationMatured in July (post-quarter end)

    $48.6M note matured, $2M principal paydown received, modified terms

    Mitigation: Agreed to short forbearance, 18-month interest-only period, amortizing payments at market rate, additional collateral, and increased personal guarantee. No loss expected based on collateral.

    Constraint on converting opportunity due to labor

    Securing and retaining enough trained labor

    Mitigation: Management is implementing new recruiting and retention programs to expand and stabilize the skilled workforce.

    Governmental delays for Bastrop County project

    Hurry up and wait situation, delays in approvals (DOT driveway, final plan filing)

    What to watch in Q3 FY26

    5

    Workforce housing order deliveries

    Remainder of 2026
    Current113 units shipped in Q2 FY26
    TargetContinued deliveries throughout remainder of 2026

    Why it matters

    This order is a significant driver of product sales and revenue growth.

    We shipped 113 units during the second quarter, with delivery is expected to continue throughout the remainder of 2026.

    Q&A highlights

    5

    Is the workforce housing backlog limited to the remaining 267 units, and will the high ASP per unit seen in Q2 continue for the remaining backlog?

    The company has a healthy backlog that includes more than just workforce housing, with increased penetration in the park business and independent dealers. The pricing for workforce housing units is expected to remain high due to their larger size and non-standard features, which require more complex and costly construction.

    “Yes. Yes. I mean it depends on what we build. I mean it's all about square footage and everything. So I mean it's -- some of the stuff that we're building for the workforce housing is harder to build than the normal stuff.”

    Detailed Narrative

    01

    Workforce Housing Order & Market Opportunity

    Legacy Housing commenced deliveries under a large 380-unit workforce housing contract, shipping 113 units in Q2 FY26. This contributed significantly to product sales and revenue per unit. The company is observing substantial interest in workforce housing, including new opportunities tied to data center construction projects, and believes there is meaningful potential for additional orders of this type across its markets.

    02

    Loan Portfolio Performance & Credit Quality

    The company's loan portfolios continue to be a stable source of interest income, with consumer loan portfolio interest income growing in the quarter. Credit quality across all portfolios remains solid, and management has not observed deterioration that would necessitate a change in its reserving posture, reflecting favorable portfolio performance.

    03

    Balance Sheet Strength & Capital Allocation

    Legacy Housing maintains an excellent balance sheet, ending the quarter with $29 million in cash and essentially no debt, with its $50 million Prosperity Bank revolver fully available. The company generated $24.4 million of operating cash flow in the first half of the year. Management views share repurchases as a sensible use of capital when the stock trades below book value, and the strong financial position allows flexibility to fund growth.

    04

    Impact of 21st Century Road to Housing Act

    The recently signed 21st Century Road to Housing Act is viewed as meaningfully favorable to the manufactured housing industry. Key provisions include eliminating the permanent chassis requirement for HUD code homes, modernizing construction standards, raising FHA-insured loan limits, and reauthorizing grant funding. These measures are expected to expand placement options and improve financing access for customers, with no negative impacts for Legacy Housing.

    05

    Operational Efficiency & Technology Adoption

    The company is actively implementing technology and AI tools to enhance efficiency across its operations. This includes a new financial analysis department working on optimizing bills of material and assembly processes, replacing sales software for faster quoting, and deploying AI tools for more effective underwriting and accurate pricing of repossessed units to ensure quick sales.

    06

    Legal Matters: AmeriCasa Litigation & Mobile Home Park Note

    Legacy Housing is involved in litigation against the sellers of AmeriCasa, an acquired manufactured housing business, over alleged misrepresentations and misappropriation. Separately, a $48.6 million note from a group of mobile home park borrowers matured and was not fully repaid, leading to a $2 million principal paydown and an agreed modification including forbearance, an 18-month interest-only period, and additional collateral.

    07

    Leadership Transition & Company Legacy

    Curt Hodgson retired as Executive Chairman and from the Board of Directors in July, after decades of building Legacy Housing. CEO Kenneth Shipley acknowledged Hodgson's significant contributions to the company's growth and success, emphasizing their long-standing partnership and the positive legacy of providing affordable homeownership opportunities through their finance programs.
