Cavalier Homes, Inc. (NYSE Amex: CAV) today announced financial results for the second quarter and six months ended June 26, 2009.

Net loss for the second quarter of 2009 was $951,000 or $0.05 per diluted share compared with net income of $1,238,000 or $0.07 per diluted share in the same quarter last year. Net sales for the second quarter of 2009 fell 53% to $23,465,000 from $50,353,000 for the second quarter of 2008, reflecting challenging market conditions. Net sales in the prior-year quarter included $5,835,000 for the shipment of 121 homes under contracts with the Mississippi Emergency Management Agency (MEMA) that were completed in mid-2008.

Revenue for the six months ended June 26, 2009, declined 57% to $42,719,000 from $99,034,000 in the year-earlier period. Sales to MEMA totaled $13,905,000 in the six months ended June 28, 2008; there were no MEMA sales in 2009.

Gross profit for the second quarter declined 51% to $4,367,000 compared with the year-earlier period and declined 48% to $8,473,000 in the first half of 2009 compared with the first half of 2008. Gross margin improved to 18.6% from 17.7% for the second quarter of 2008 and was 19.8% through the first half of 2009, up from 16.5% in the comparable period last year. Selling, general and administrative expenses totaled $5,386,000 in the second quarter of 2009, a decrease of 31% from the same quarter last year. This decline reflected the impact of cost-control measures implemented during the last year, which was offset in part by costs totaling approximately $412,000 related to the Company's recent proxy contest. Selling, general and administrative expenses totaled $10,885,000 through the first half of 2009, a decline of 29% from the year-earlier period.

Cavalier completed the sale of its financial services subsidiary on February 27, 2009. Income from discontinued operations totaling $160,000 was composed of the operating loss for this subsidiary of $371,000 for the first quarter of 2009 prior to its sale, offset by a gain on the sale of $677,000 and net of an income tax provision of $146,000.

Cavalier ended the second quarter with cash totaling $22,475,000, up from $20,898,000 at the same time last year, reflecting the Company's focus on improving liquidity by reducing inventory and the installment loan portfolio held for investment. Inventory totaled $12,003,000 at the end of the second quarter, representing a decline of $6,674,000 from the year-earlier level. Accounts receivable at June 26, 2009, declined $7,229,000 to $6,137,000 from a year ago.

As previously announced, Cavalier's Board of Directors unanimously approved an Agreement and Plan of Merger for the Company to be acquired by Addison, Alabama-based Southern Energy Homes, Inc. The Company expects to complete the transaction in the third quarter of 2009, subject to final documentation and other customary conditions, as well as the approval of Cavalier Homes' stockholders at the upcoming special meeting of stockholders scheduled on August 13, 2009.
