Enterprises, Inc.,
a leading producer of recreational vehicles and
manufactured housing, today announced preliminary
revenues for the third quarter ended January 29,
2006, and the first nine months of fiscal 2006.
Revenues for the most recent third quarter increased
14 percent to approximately $580 million from $509
million in the same quarter last year. For the first
nine months of the current fiscal year, revenues
rose 1 percent to $1.83 billion from $1.81 billion
in the prior year.
Shipments of FEMA homes positively impacted the
third quarter's sales of manufactured housing by
approximately $57 million, producing a revenue increase
of 14 percent to approximately $209 million from
$184 million a year ago.
"While we continue to be optimistic about the
long-term future of manufactured housing, the lending
environment has only gradually improved," Smith
said. "The industry is experiencing growth
in the Southeast and Southwest markets, but industry
shipments to the rest of the country continue to
be lower. As people begin to rebuild their lives
on the Gulf Coast, we believe we will experience
an increase in orders because manufactured homes
are a well-accepted permanent housing alternative
to site-built homes in that area. In addition, factory-built
homes can be delivered more quickly than conventional
homes, and are typically more affordable.
