Plain-text annual report

 About the Company Nobility Homes, Inc., a Florida corporation incorporated in 1967, designs, manufactures and sells a broad line of manufactured and modular homes through its own retail sales centers throughout Florida. Nobility also sells its manufactured homes on a wholesale basis to independent manufactured home retail dealers and manufactured home communities. We pride ourselves on providing well-designed and affordably-built homes that are comfortable, pleasantly decorated, energy efficient and engineered for years of carefree living. The Company’s manufacturing plant and corporate headquarters are located in Ocala, Florida. Our homes are available in approximately 100 active models sold under the trade names “Kingswood”, “Richwood”, “Tropic Isle”, “Regency Manor” and “Tropic Manor”. Our home sales are single and multi-section, range in size from 464 to 2,800 square feet and contain from one to five bedrooms and retail prices for our homes typically range from approximately $70,000 to $220,000. Prestige Home Centers, Inc., our wholly owned subsidiary, operates ten retail sales centers in north and central Florida: Ocala (two), Chiefland, Auburndale, Inverness, Hudson, Tavares, Yulee, Panama City, Punta Gorda and executive offices are located at our corporate headquarters in Ocala, Florida. Each of Prestige’s retail sales centers is located within 350 miles of Nobility’s Ocala manufacturing facility. The primary customers of Prestige are homebuyers who generally purchase manufactured or modular homes to place on their own home sites. Prestige operates its retail sales centers using a model home concept. Each of the homes displayed at its retail sales centers is furnished and decorated as a model home. Mountain Financial, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Prestige Home Centers, Inc., is an independent insurance agent and licensed loan originator.

Contents 1 Shareholders’ Letter 3 Directors 3 Officers 3 General Shareholders’ Information 3 General Information To Our Shareholders Sales for fiscal year 2022 increased 14% to $51.5 million as compared to $45.1 million recorded in fiscal year 2021. Income from operations for fiscal year 2022 increased 37% to $8.4 million versus $6.1 million in the same period a year ago. Net income after taxes increased 34% to $7.2 million as compared to $5.4 million for the same period last year. Diluted earnings per share for fiscal year 2022 were $2.10 per share compared to $1.50 per share last year. The demand for affordable manufactured housing in Florida and the U.S. is starting to reflect the increased interest rate environment by the Federal Reserve. Although net sales increased during the twelve months ended November 5, 2022, as compared to the same period last year, we continued to experience the negative impact of limitations being placed on certain key production materials from suppliers, the delay or lack of key components from vendors as well as back orders, delayed shipments, price increases and labor shortages. These supply chain issues have caused delays in the completion of the homes at the manufacturing facility and the set- up process of retail homes in the field, resulting in decreased net sales due to our inability to timely deliver and setup homes to customers. We expect that these challenges will continue for the first six months of fiscal year 2023 or until the industry supply chain normalizes. According to the Florida Manufactured Housing Association, shipments for the industry in Florida for the period from November 2021 through October 2022 were up approximately 23% from the same period last year. Nobility’s financial position during fiscal year 2022 remained very strong with cash and cash equivalents, certificates of deposit and short-term investments of $21.1 million and no outstanding debt. Working capital is $33.7 million and our ratio of current assets to current liabilities is 3.3:1. Stockholders’ equity is $47.9 million and the book value per share of common stock increased to $14.22. Maintaining our strong financial position is vital for future growth and success. Because of very challenging business conditions during economic recessions in our market area, management will continue to evaluate all expenses and react in a manner consistent with maintaining our strong financial position, while exploring opportunities to expand our distribution and manufacturing operations. 1 On June 5, 2022, we celebrated our 55th anniversary in business specializing in the design and production of quality, affordable manufactured and modular homes. With multiple retail sales centers in Florida for over 30 years and an insurance agency subsidiary, we are the only vertically integrated manufactured home company headquartered in Florida. friends of We gratefully acknowledge the Board of Directors, officers, the Company and express our employees and appreciation for their dedication. Our appreciation is also extended to our retail distribution network, customers and suppliers for their support and loyalty. We sincerely thank our stockholders for their continued investment confidence in Nobility and pledge our efforts to maintain and guard that trust. With this confidence and support, we enter fiscal year 2023 with full awareness of the challenging opportunities that lie ahead and with renewed enthusiasm and determination to achieve the goals for higher sales and operating results that have been set for your Company.

Business Nobility Homes, Inc., a Florida corporation incorporated in 1967, designs, manufactures and sells a broad line of manufactured and modular homes through its own retail sales centers throughout Florida. Nobility also sells its manufactured homes on a wholesale basis to independent manufactured home retail dealers and manufactured home communities. All references in this annual report on Form 10-K to “Nobility,” “Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our” refer to Nobility Homes, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries unless the context otherwise suggests. Manufactured Homes Nobility’s homes are available in approximately 100 active models sold under the trade names “Kingswood,” “Richwood,” “Tropic Isle,” “Regency Manor,” and “Tropic Manor.” The homes, ranging in size from 464 to 2,800 square feet and containing from one to five bedrooms, are available in: • Single-wide widths of 14 and 16 feet ranging from 35 to 72 feet in length. • Double-wide widths of 20, 24, 26, 28 and 32 feet ranging from 32 to 72 feet in length. • Triple-wide widths of 42 feet ranging from 60 to 72 feet in length. • Quad unit with 2 sections 28 feet wide from 40 to 48 feet long and 2 sections 28 feet wide by 52 feet long. Our floor plans can be built as an on-frame modular home. We have been approved to build A.N.S.I. (American National Standards Institute) Park models less than 400 square feet and exposure D homes. Nobility’s homes are sold primarily as unfurnished dwellings ready for permanent occupancy. Interiors are designed and color coordinated in a range of decors. Depending on the size of the unit and quality of appliances and other appointments, retail prices for Nobility’s homes typically range from approximately $70,000 to $220,000. Most of the prices of Nobility’s homes are considered by it to be within the low to medium price range of the industry. Nobility’s manufacturing plant utilizes assembly line techniques in manufactured home production. The plant manufactures and assembles the floors, sidewalls, end walls, roofs and interior cabinets for their homes. Nobility purchases, from outside suppliers, various other components that are built into its homes including the axles, frames, tires, doors, windows, pre-finished sidings, plywood, ceiling panels, lumber, rafters, insulation, gypsum board, appliances, lighting and plumbing fixtures, carpeting and draperies. Nobility is not dependent upon any one particular supplier for its raw materials or component parts and is not required to carry significant amounts of inventory to assure itself of a continuous allotment of goods from suppliers. Nobility generally does not manufacture its homes to be held by it as inventory (except for model home inventory of its wholly owned retail network subsidiary, Prestige Home Centers, Inc.), but, rather, manufactures its homes after receipt of orders. Although Nobility attempts to maintain a consistent level of production of homes throughout the fiscal year, seasonal fluctuations do occur, with sales of homes generally lower during the first fiscal quarter due to the holiday season. The sales area for a manufactured home manufacturer is limited by substantial delivery costs of the finished product. Nobility’s homes are delivered by outside trucking companies. Nobility estimates that it can compete effectively within a range of approximately 350 miles from its manufacturing plant in Ocala, Florida. Substantially all of Nobility’s sales are made in Florida. Retail Sales Prestige Home Centers, Inc.(“Prestige”), our wholly owned subsidiary, operates ten retail sales centers in north and central Florida. Its principal executive offices are located at Nobility’s headquarters in Ocala, Florida. Sales by Prestige accounted for 95% and 87% of Nobility’s sales during fiscal years 2022 and 2021, respectively. Each of Prestige’s retail sales centers are located within 350 miles of Nobility’s Ocala manufacturing facility. Prestige owns the land at eight of its retail sales centers and leases the remaining two retail sales centers from unaffiliated parties. The primary customers of Prestige are homebuyers who generally purchase manufactured homes to place on their own home sites. Prestige operates its retail sales centers with a model home concept. Each of the homes displayed at its retail sales centers is furnished and decorated as a model home. Although the model homes may be purchased from Prestige’s model home inventory, generally, customers order homes which are shipped directly from the factory to their home site. Prestige sales generally are to purchasers living 2 within a radius of approximately 100 miles from the selling retail lot. The Company’s internet-based marketing program generates numerous leads which are directed to the Prestige retail sales centers to assist a potential buyer in purchasing a home. The retail sale of manufactured homes is a highly competitive business. Because of the number of retail sales centers located throughout Nobility’s market area, potential customers typically can find several sales centers within a 100-mile radius of their present home. Prestige competes with over 80 other retailers in its primary market area, some of which may have greater financial resources than Prestige. In addition, manufactured homes offered by Prestige compete with site-built housing. Prestige does not itself finance customers’ new home purchases. Financing for home purchases has historically been available from other independent sources that specialize in manufactured housing lending and banks that finance manufactured home purchases. Prestige and Nobility are not required to sign any recourse agreements with any of these retail financing sources. Insurance and Financial Services Mountain Financial, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Prestige Home Centers, Inc., is an independent insurance agent and licensed mortgage loan originator. Its principal activity is providing retail insurance services, which involves placing various types of insurance, including property and casualty, automobile and extended home warranty coverage, with insurance underwriters on behalf of its Prestige customers in connection with their purchase and financing of manufactured homes. As agent, we solely assist our customers in obtaining various types of insurance and extended warranty coverage with insurance underwriters. As such, we have no agreements with homeowners and/or third-party insurance companies other than agency agreements with various insurance carriers. The Company provides 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 was deemed necessary for policy cancellations for fiscal years 2022 and 2021. Wholesale Sales to Manufactured Home Communities Nobility also sells its homes on a wholesale basis through two full-time salespersons to approximately 36 manufactured home communities and independent dealers. Nobility continues to seek new opportunities in the areas in which it operates, as there is ongoing turnover in the manufactured home communities as they achieve full occupancy levels. As is common in the industry, most of Nobility’s independent dealers sell homes produced by several manufacturers. Nobility does not generally offer consigned inventory programs or other credit terms to its independent dealers and ordinarily receives payment for its homes within 15 to 30 days of delivery. However, Nobility may offer extended terms to park dealers who do a high volume of business with Nobility. In order to stimulate sales, Nobility sells homes for display to related party manufactured home communities on extended terms and recognizes revenue when the homes are sold to the end users. The high visibility of Nobility’s homes in such communities generates additional sales of its homes through such dealers. Regulation The manufacture, distribution and sale of homes are subject to governmental regulation at the federal, state and local levels. The Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) has adopted national construction and safety standards that preempt state standards. HUD regulations require that manufactured homes be constructed to more stringent wind load and thermal standards. Compliance with these standards involves approval by a HUD approved engineering firm of engineering plans and specifications on all models. HUD has also promulgated rules requiring producers of manufactured homes to utilize wood products certified by their suppliers to meet HUD’s established limits on formaldehyde emissions. HUD’s standards also require periodic inspection by state or other third-party inspectors of plant facilities and construction procedures, as well as inspection of manufactured home units during construction. In addition, some components of manufactured homes may also be subject to Consumer Product Safety Commission standards and recall requirements. Modular homes manufactured by Nobility are required to comply with the Florida Building Code established by the Florida Department of Business and Professional Regulations. Nobility estimates that compliance with federal, state and local environmental protection laws will have no material effect upon capital expenditures for plant or equipment modifications or earnings for the next fiscal year. The transportation of manufactured homes is subject to state regulation. Generally, special permits must be obtained to transport the home over public highways and restrictions are imposed to promote travel safety including restrictions relating to routes, travel periods, speed limits, safety equipment and size. Nobility homes are subject to the requirements of the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act and Federal Trade Commission rulings which regulate warranties on consumer products. Nobility provides a limited warranty of one year on the structural components of its homes. 3 The government measures as well as the public reaction to COVID-19 and the various variants previously had a negative impact on customer traffic (and corresponding sales) within our centers and the operations of our business partners, which has since subsided. However, whether caused by COVID-19 or other factors, we have experienced unprecedented inflation and shortages in many material products, and difficulty in hiring additional and retaining production workers, with no immediate relief in sight that have resulted in corresponding increases to our material and labor costs. The Company is monitoring these issues and has adjusted our selling prices accordingly to help offset the higher costs. Competition The manufactured home industry is highly competitive. The initial investment required for entry into the business of manufacturing homes is not unduly large. State bonding requirements for entry into the business vary from state to state. The bond requirement for Florida is $50,000. Nobility competes directly with other manufacturers, some of whom are both considerably larger and possess greater financial resources than Nobility. Nobility estimates that of the 20 manufacturers selling in the state, approximately 10 manufacture homes of the same type as Nobility and compete in the same market area. Nobility believes that it is generally competitive with most of those manufacturers in terms of price, service, warranties and product performance. Employees As of January 7, 2023, the Company had 145 full-time employees, including 32 employed by Prestige. Approximately 89 employees are factory personnel compared to approximately 74 in such positions a year ago and 56 are in management, administrative, supervisory, sales and clerical positions compared to approximately 57 a year ago. In addition, Nobility employs part-time employees when necessary. The Company has managerial, administrative, supervisory, sales and manufacturing employees. We have a focus on safety and being drug free in our manufacturing operations. Historically, we have had low turnover rates with our non-manufacturing employees. It is currently difficult for us to attract long-term quality employees for our manufacturing operations. We have experienced disruption in production as a result of our inability to find labor. We are using different hiring practices such as work release programs and employment services to reduce the turnover. However, we are still experiencing a shortage of qualified factory production employees. Nobility makes contributions toward employees’ group health and life insurance. Nobility, which is not subject to any collective bargaining agreements, has not experienced any work stoppage or labor disputes and considers its relationship with employees to be generally satisfactory. Item 1A. Risk Factors As a smaller reporting company, we are not required to provide the information required by this item. Item 1B. Unresolved Staff Comments None. Item 2. Properties As of February 1, 2023, Nobility owned one manufacturing plant as follows: Location Approximate Size 3741 SW 7th Street ................................................................................... Ocala, Florida .......................................................................................... 72,000 sq. ft. Nobility’s Ocala facility is located on approximately 35.5 acres of land on which an additional two-story structure adjoining the plant serves as Nobility’s corporate offices. The plant, which is of metal construction, is in good condition and requires little maintenance. In December 2021, the Company broke ground to build an 11,900 square foot frame shop constructed of concrete block and metal to manufacture steel frames for our homes, on our current manufacturing plant property in Ocala, Florida. It is anticipated that this project will be completed in the fiscal year 2023. Prestige owns the properties on which it’s Ocala South, Ocala North, Auburndale, Inverness, Tavares, Panama City, Yulee and Punta Gorda, Florida retail sales centers are located. Prestige leases the property for its other two retail sales centers located in Chiefland and 4 Hudson Florida. The Company in April 2022 sold 4.38 acres of land frontage at the Inverness location for $96,970 to the Florida Department of Transportation for SR 41 road widening project. In January 2021 the Company purchased the land for the Tavares retail sales center for $245,000, land in Ocala for a future retail sales center in February 2021 for $1,040,000 and the land for the Ocala South retail sales center in March 2021 for $500,000. Item 3. Legal Proceedings Certain claims and suits arising in the ordinary course of business have been filed or are pending against the Company. In the opinion of management, the ultimate outcome of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows. The Company does not maintain casualty insurance on some of its property, including the inventory at its retail centers, its plant machinery and plant equipment and is at risk for those types of losses. Item 4. None. Mine Safety Disclosures 5 PART II Item 5.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations General Nobility focuses on home buyers who generally purchase their manufactured homes from retail sales centers to locate on property they own. Nobility has aggressively pursued this market through its Prestige retail sales centers. While Nobility actively seeks to make wholesale sales to independent retail dealers, its presence as a competitor limits potential sales to dealers located in the same geographic areas serviced by its Prestige retail sales centers. Nobility has aggressively targeted the retirement community market, which is made up of retirees moving to Florida and typically purchasing homes to be located on sites leased from park communities offering a variety of amenities. Sales are not limited by the presence of the Company’s Prestige retail sales centers in this type of arrangement, as the retirement community sells homes only within their community. Nobility has a product line of approximately 100 active models. Although market demand can fluctuate on a fairly short-term basis, the manufacturing process is such that Nobility can alter its product mix relatively quickly in response to changes in the market. During fiscal years 2022 and 2021, Nobility continued to experience consumer demand for affordable manufactured homes in Florida. Our three-, four- and five-bedroom manufactured homes are favored by families, compared with the one, two and three-bedroom homes that typically appeal to the retirement buyers who reside in the manufactured housing communities. In an effort to make manufactured homes more competitive with site-built housing, financing packages are available through third- party lenders to provide (1) 30-year financing, (2) an interest rate reduction program (buy-down), (3) combination land/manufactured home loans, and (4) a 5% down payment program for qualified buyers. Prestige maintains several outside financing sources that provide financing to retail homebuyers for its manufactured homes. The Company continually tries to develop relationships with new lenders, since established lenders will occasionally leave manufactured home lending. The lack of lenders in our industry, partly as a result of an increase in government regulations, still affects our results by limiting many affordable manufactured housing buyers from purchasing homes. In addition, rising interest rates have slowed the demand for retail homebuyers. Prestige’s wholly owned subsidiary, Mountain Financial, Inc., is an independent insurance agent and licensed loan originator. Mountain Financial provides automobile insurance, extended warranty coverage and property and casualty insurance to Prestige customers in connection with their purchase and financing of manufactured homes. The rising interest rate environment’s future impact on the housing market as well as the continued negative impact from COVID-19 and other factors on the Company’s production work force, supply of certain building products and the operations of the Company are difficult to forecast for fiscal year 2023. These factors have had a negative impact on customer traffic (and corresponding sales) within our sales centers, operations of the manufacturing facility and our business partners through the most part of fiscal year 2022 and during the third and fourth quarters of fiscal 2021. In fiscal year 2022 Prestige purchased from other manufacturers 153 ($12,595,593) new homes to help eliminate the large backlog from Nobility. Prestige has 99 ($8,198,040) new homes from Nobility and outside manufacturers that are included in inventory and are in the field waiting to be completed and closed. Nobility believes that being located in Florida offers a number of advantages such as an increasing population and a low-tax and business friendly state government. However, Nobility is also aware of climate-related risks such as hurricanes, tornados, sea-level rise, flooding and wildfires which are prone to occur in Florida. To date, management does not believe these climate-related risks have adversely impacted the Company. However, management believes if such climate-related events impacted the Company’s manufacturing or sales facilities, then the Company would be adversely impacted. If such climate-related events should deter future population growth in Florida, then the Company would be adversely impacted. If climate-related disclosures are required in the future by the Securities and Exchange Commission or if customary business practices should change to require greater climate-risk mitigation, then the Company would face increased compliance costs and costs of doing business. Such costs are not currently quantifiable. 7 The Company’s fiscal year ends on the first Saturday on or after October 31. The year ended November 5, 2022 (fiscal year 2022) consisted of a fifty-two-week period and the year ended November 6, 2021 (fiscal year 2021) consisted of a fifty-three-week period. Results of Operations Total net sales in fiscal year 2022 increased 14% to $51,522,054 compared to $45,062,558 in fiscal year 2021. The Company reported net income of $7,232,029 in fiscal year 2022, an increase of 34% compared to $5,398,808 during fiscal year 2021. The demand for affordable manufactured housing in Florida and the U.S. is slowing as a result of the increased interest rate environment driven by the Federal Reserve. Although net sales increased during the twelve months ended November 5, 2022, as compared to the same period last year, we continued to experience the negative impact of limitations being placed on certain key production materials from suppliers, the delay or lack of key components from vendors as well as back orders, delayed shipments, price increases and labor shortages. These supply chain issues have caused delays in the completion of the homes at the manufacturing facility and the set-up process of retail homes in the field, resulting in decreased net sales due to our inability to timely deliver and setup homes to customers. Certainly, the COVID-19 pandemic has had an impact on each of these areas. We expect that these challenges will continue for the first six months of fiscal year 2023 or until the industry supply chain normalizes. The Company has continued to experience inflation in most building products resulting in increases to our material and labor costs which has increased the wholesale and retail selling prices of our homes. In addition, potential customers may delay or defer purchasing decisions in light of the rising interest rate environment. According to the Florida Manufactured Housing Association, shipments for the industry in Florida for the period from November 2021 through October 2022 were up approximately 23% from the same period last year. The following table summarizes certain key sales statistics and percent of gross profit as of and for fiscal years 2022 and 2021. Maintaining our strong financial position is vital for future growth and success. Our many years of experience in the Florida market, combined with home buyers’ increased need for more affordable housing, should serve the Company well in the coming years. Management remains convinced that our specific geographic market is one of the best long-term growth areas in the country. On June 5, 2022, we celebrated our 55th anniversary in business specializing in the design and production of quality, affordable manufactured and modular homes. With multiple retail sales centers in Florida for over 32 years and an insurance agency subsidiary, we are the only vertically integrated manufactured home company headquartered in Florida. Insurance agent commissions in fiscal year 2022 were $299,672 compared to $283,154 in fiscal year 2021. We have established 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 was deemed necessary for policy cancellations at November 5, 2022 and November 6, 2021. Cost of goods sold at our manufacturing facilities include materials, direct and indirect labor and manufacturing expenses (which consists of factory occupancy, salary and salary related, delivery costs, manufactured home service costs and other manufacturing expenses). Cost of goods sold at our retail sales centers include appliances, air conditioners, electrical and plumbing hook-ups, furniture, insurance, impact and permit fees, land and home fees, manufactured home, service warranty, setup contractor, interior drywall finish, setup display, skirting, steps, well, septic tank and other expenses. Gross profit as a percentage of net sales was 29% in fiscal year 2022 compared to 25% in fiscal year 2021. Our gross profit was $14,903,438 for fiscal year 2022 compared to $11,432,196 for fiscal year 2021. The gross profit is dependent on the sales mix of wholesale and retail homes and number of pre-owned homes sold. The increase in gross profit as a percentage of net sales is primarily due to the increase in the wholesale and retail selling prices of our homes. 8 20222021New homes sold through Company owned sales centers 371 394 Pre-owned homes sold through Company owned sales centers 13 15 Homes sold to independent dealers 43 139 Total new factory built homes produced 423 557 Average new manufactured home price - retail 126,438$ 93,824$ Average new manufactured home price - wholesale 72,983$ 50,183$ As a percent of net sales:Gross profit from the Company owned retail sales centers 20%17%Gross profit from the manufacturing facilities - including intercompany sales 16%15% Selling, general and administrative expenses at our manufacturing facility include salaries, professional services, advertising and promotions, corporate expenses, employee benefits, office equipment and supplies and utilities. Selling, general and administrative expenses at our retail sales center include advertising, retail sales centers expenses, salary and salary related, professional fees, corporate expense, employee benefit, office equipment and supplies, utilities and travel. Selling, general and administrative expenses at the insurance company include advertising, professional fees and office supplies. Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of net sales was 13% in fiscal year 2022 compared to 12% in fiscal year 2021. Selling, general and administrative expenses were $6,477,988 for fiscal year 2022 compared to $5,286,172 for fiscal year 2021. The dollar increases in expenses in 2022 were due to the increase in variable expenses which were a direct result of employee benefits compensation due to the increase in sales. The Company earned interest in the amount of $234,804 in fiscal year 2022 compared to $180,635 in fiscal year 2021. Interest income is dependent on our cash balance and available rates of return. The increase during 2022 is primarily due to the increase in the interest rates. The Company earned $60,457 from its joint venture, Majestic 21, in fiscal year 2022 compared to $59,072 in fiscal year 2021. The earnings from Majestic 21 represent the allocation of profit and losses which are owned 50% by 21st Mortgage Corporation and 50% by the Company. The earnings from the Majestic 21 loan portfolio could vary year to year, but overall, the earnings will continue to decrease due to the amortization, maturity and payoff of the loans. We received $364,520 in fiscal year 2022 and $246,216 in fiscal year 2021 under an escrow arrangement related to a Finance Revenue Sharing Agreement (FRSA) between 21st Mortgage Corporation and the Company. The distributions from the escrow account, related to certain loans financed by 21st Mortgage Corporation, are recorded in income by the Company as received, which has been the Company’s past practice. The increase in earnings is primarily due to the four distributions received in fiscal year 2022 compared to three distributions received fiscal year 2021. The earnings overall from the FRSA loan portfolio will continue to decrease due to the amortization and payoff of the loans. The Company realized pre-tax income of $9,436,534 in fiscal year 2022 compared to a pre-tax income of $7,118,733 in fiscal year 2021. The Company recorded an income tax expense of $2,204,505 in fiscal year 2022 compared to $1,719,925 in fiscal year 2021. Net income in fiscal year 2022 was $7,232,029 or $2.10 per basic and diluted share and net income in fiscal year 2021 was $5,398,808 or $1.50 per basic and diluted share. Liquidity and Capital Resources Cash and cash equivalents were $16,653,449 at November 5, 2022 compared to $36,126,059 at November 6, 2021. Certificates of deposit were $3,903,888 at November 5, 2022 compared to $2,093,015 at November 6, 2021. Short-term investments were $589,071 at November 5, 2022 compared to $621,928 at November 6, 2021. Working capital was $33,667,732 at November 5, 2022 compared to $35,563,355 at November 6, 2021. A cash dividend was paid from our cash reserves in April 2022 in the amount of $1.00 per share ($3,532,976). During fiscal 2022, the Company repurchased an aggregate 162,570 shares of its common stock for an aggregate of $5,195,267 and Prestige purchased from other manufacturers 153 ($12,595,593) new homes to help eliminate the large backlog from Nobility. Prestige new home inventory was $20,016,093 at November 5, 2022 compared to $7,140,880 at November 6, 2021. The increase in Prestige new home inventory was due to the 121 ($10,432,998) new homes in inventory that were purchased from other manufacturers. Prestige has 99 ($8,198,040) new homes from Nobility and other manufacturers that are included in inventory and are in the field waiting to be completed and closed. 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 incurred $1.1 million in fiscal year 2022 in building an 11,900 square foot frame shop to manufacture steel frames for our homes. In April 2022 Prestige sold 4.38 acres of land frontage at the Inverness location for $96,970 to the Florida Department of Transportation for SR 41 road widening project. A cash dividend was paid from our cash reserves in March 2021 in the amount of $1.00 per share ($3,632,100). During fiscal 2021, the Company repurchased an aggregate of 100,346 shares of its common stock for an aggregate of $3,478,553. In January 2021 the Company purchased the land for the Tavares retail sales center for $245,000, land in Ocala for a future retail sales center in February 2021 for $1,040,000 and land for the Ocala South retail sales center in March 2021 for $500,000. The Company currently has no line of credit facility and no debt and does not believe that such a facility is currently necessary to its operations. The Company also has approximately $4.1 million of cash surrender value of life insurance which it may be able to access as an additional source of liquidity though the Company has not currently viewed this to be necessary. As of November 5, 2022, the 9 Company continued to report a strong balance sheet which included total assets of approximately $62.4 million which was funded primarily by stockholders’ equity of approximately $47.9 million. Looking ahead, the Company’s strong balance sheet and significant cash reserves accumulated in profitable years has allowed the Company to remain sufficiently liquid to allow the continuation of operations and should enable the Company to take advantage of any market opportunities. Management believes it has sufficient levels of liquidity as of the date of the filing of this Form 10-K to allow the Company to operate into the foreseeable future. Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates The Company applies judgment and estimates, which may have a material effect in the eventual outcome of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, accounts receivable, inventory and goodwill. The following explains the basis and the procedure where judgment and estimates are applied. Revenue Recognition The Company recognizes revenue from its retail sales of new manufactured homes upon the occurrence of the following: • Its receipt of a down payment, • Construction of the home is complete, • Home has been delivered and set up at the retail home buyer’s site and title has been transferred to the retail home buyer, • Remaining funds have been released by the finance company (financed sales transaction), remaining funds have been committed by the finance company by an agreement with respect to financing obtained by the customer, usually in the form of a written approval for permanent home financing received from a lending institution, (financed construction sales transaction) or cash has been received from the home buyer (cash sales transaction), and • Completion of any other significant obligations. The Company recognizes revenue from the sale of the repurchased homes upon transfer of title to the new purchaser. The Company recognizes revenue from its independent dealers upon receiving wholesale floor plan financing or establishing retail credit approval for terms, shipping of the home and transferring title and risk of loss to the independent dealer. For wholesale shipments to independent dealers, the Company has no obligation to set up the home or to complete any other significant obligations. Sales of homes to affiliated entities that are subject to contingent payment terms are considered inventory consignment arrangements. Revenue from such arrangements is recognized when the homes are sold to the end users and payment is collected by the affiliated entity. See Note 4 “Related Party Transactions” to the Company’s financial statement included herein The Company recognizes revenue from its wholly owned subsidiary, Mountain Financial, Inc., as follows: commission income (and fees in lieu of commissions) is recorded as of the effective date of insurance coverage or the billing date, whichever is later. Commissions on premiums billed and collected directly by insurance companies are recorded as revenue when received which, in many cases, is the Company’s first notification of amounts earned due to the lack of policy and renewal information. Contingent commissions are recorded as revenue when received. Contingent commissions are commissions paid by insurance underwriters and are based on the estimated profit and/or overall volume of business placed with the underwriter. The data necessary for the calculation of contingent commissions cannot be reasonably obtained prior to the receipt of the commission which, in many cases, is the Company’s first notification of amounts earned. The Company provides 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 was deemed necessary for policy cancellations on November 5, 2022 or November 6, 2021. Income Taxes The Company accounts for income taxes utilizing the asset and liability method. This approach requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences attributable to temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation 10 allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Rebate Program The Company has a rebate program for some dealers, based upon the number and type of homes purchased, which pays rebates based upon sales volume to the dealers. Volume rebates are recorded as a reduction of sales in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. The rebate liability is calculated and recognized as eligible homes are sold based upon factors surrounding the activity and prior experience of specific dealers and is included in accrued expenses in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements As part of our ongoing business, we generally do not participate in transactions that generate relationships with unconsolidated entities or financial partnerships, such as entities often referred to as structured finance or variable interest entities (“VIE’s”), which would have been established for the purpose of facilitating off-balance sheet arrangements or other contractually narrow or limited purposes. As of November 5, 2022, we are not involved in any material unconsolidated entities (other than the Company’s investments in Majestic 21). 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 amounts and 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, the potential adverse impact on our business caused by the COVID-19 pandemic or other health pandemics, competitive pricing pressures at both the wholesale and retail levels, inflation, increasing material costs (including forest based products) or availability of materials due to supply chain interruptions (such as current inflation with forest products and supply issues with vinyl siding and PVC piping), changes in market demand, increase 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, any armed conflict involving the United States and the impact of inflation.

Ocala, Florida Opinion on the Financial Statements We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Nobility Homes, Inc. (the “Company”) at November 5, 2022 and November 6, 2021, and the related consolidated statements of comprehensive income, changes in stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended November 5, 2022, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the consolidated financial statements). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Basis for Opinion These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB. We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. Critical Audit Matters Critical audit matters are matters arising from the current-period audit of the financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that (1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. We determined that there are no critical audit matters. /s/ Daszkal Bolton LLP We have served as the Company’s auditor since 2018.

(“Nobility”), its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Prestige Home Centers, Inc. (“Prestige”), and Prestige’s wholly-owned subsidiaries, Mountain Financial, Inc., an independent insurance agency and licensed mortgage loan originator and Majestic Homes, Inc., (collectively the “Company”). The Company is engaged in the manufacture and sale of manufactured and modular homes to various dealerships, including its own retail sales centers, and manufactured housing communities throughout Florida. The Company has a manufacturing plant in operation that is located in Ocala, Florida. At November 5, 2022, Prestige operated ten Florida retail sales centers: Ocala (2), Chiefland, Auburndale, Inverness, Hudson, Tavares, Yulee, Panama City and Punta Gorda. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The consolidated financial statements are prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP). Use of Estimates – The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying disclosures. These estimates and assumptions are based upon management’s best knowledge of current events and actions that the Company may take in the future. The Company is subject to uncertainties such as the impact of future events, economic, environmental and political factors and changes in the Company’s business environment; therefore, actual results could differ from these estimates. Accordingly, the accounting estimates used in the preparation of the Company’s consolidated financial statements will change as new events occur, as more experience is acquired, as additional information is obtained and as the Company’s operating environment changes. Changes in estimates are made when circumstances warrant. Such changes in estimates and refinements in estimation methodologies are reflected in the reported financial condition and results of operations; if material, the effects of changes in estimates are disclosed in the notes to the consolidated financial statements. Significant estimates and assumptions by management affect: valuation of pre-owned homes, the allowance for doubtful accounts, the carrying value of long-lived assets, the provision for income taxes and related deferred tax accounts, certain accrued expenses and contingencies, warranty reserve and stock-based compensation. Fiscal Year – The Company’s fiscal year ends on the first Saturday on or after October 31. The year ended November 5, 2022 (fiscal year 2022) consisted of a fifty-two-week period and the year ended November 6, 2021 (fiscal year 2021) consisted of a fifty-three- week period. Revenue Recognition – The Company’s revenue comes substantially from the sale of manufactured housing, modular housing and park models, along with freight billed to customers, parts sold and aftermarket services. The Company recognizes revenue following the comprehensive framework of Financial Accounting Standards Board ASU No. 2014- 09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)” (ASU 2014-09), which established a methodology for determining how much revenue to recognize and when it should be recognized through application of the following five-step approach: 1. Identify the contract(s) with a customer. 2. Identify each performance obligation in the contract. 3. Determine the transaction price. 4. Allocate the transaction price to each performance obligation; and 5. Recognize revenue when or as each performance obligation is satisfied. The Company recognizes revenue from its retail sales of new manufactured homes upon the occurrence of the following: • Its receipt of a down payment, • Construction of the home is complete, • Home has been delivered and set up at the retail home buyer’s site, and title has been transferred to the retail home buyer, • Remaining funds have been released by the finance company (financed sales transaction), remaining funds have been committed by the finance company by an agreement with respect to financing obtained by the customer, usually in the form of a written approval for permanent home financing received from a lending institution, (financed construction sales transaction) or cash has been received from the home buyer (cash sales transaction), and • Completion of any other significant obligations. The accompanying notes are an integral part of these financial statements. 18 The Company recognizes revenue from the sale of the repurchased homes upon transfer of title to the new purchaser. The Company recognizes revenues from its independent dealers upon receiving wholesale floor plan financing or establishing retail credit approval for terms, shipping of the home, and transferring title and risk of loss to the independent dealer. For wholesale shipments to independent dealers, the Company has no obligation to set up the home or to complete any other significant obligations. The Company recognizes revenues from its wholly owned subsidiary, Mountain Financial, Inc., as follows: commission income (and fees in lieu of commissions) is recorded as of the effective date of insurance coverage or the billing date, whichever is later. Commissions on premiums billed and collected directly by insurance companies are recorded as revenue when received which, in many cases, is the Company’s first notification of amounts earned due to the lack of policy and renewal information. Contingent commissions are recorded as revenue when received. Contingent commissions are commissions paid by insurance underwriters and are based on the estimated profit and/or overall volume of business placed with the underwriter. The data necessary for the calculation of contingent commissions cannot be reasonably obtained prior to the receipt of the commission which, in many cases, is the Company’s first notification of amounts earned. The Company provides 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 was deemed necessary for policy cancellations at November 5, 2022 and November 6, 2021. Sales of homes to affiliated entities that are subject to contingent payment terms are considered inventory consignment arrangements. Revenue from such arrangements is recognized when the homes are sold to the end users and payment is collected by the affiliated entity. See Note 4 “Related Party Transactions”. Revenues by Products and Services – Revenues by net sales from manufactured housing, pre-owned homes, and insurance agent commissions for the years ended November 5, 2022 and November 6, 2021 are as follows: Cash and Cash Equivalents – The Company considers all money market accounts and highly liquid debt instruments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Certificates of Deposit – Certificates of deposits are recorded at cost plus accrued interest and have maturities of twelve months or less. Accounts Receivable – Accounts receivable are stated at net realizable value. An allowance for doubtful accounts is provided based on prior collection experiences and management’s analysis of specific accounts. At November 5, 2022 or November 6, 2021, in the opinion of management, no material accounts were considered uncollectible and, accordingly, no allowance was deemed necessary. Accounts receivable fluctuate due to the number of homes sold to independent dealers. The Company recognizes revenues from its independent dealers upon receiving wholesale floor plan financing or establishing retail credit approval for terms, shipping of the home, and transferring title and risk of loss to the independent dealer. Investments – The Company’s investments consist of equity securities of a public company. Investments with maturities of less than one year are classified as short-term investments. The Company’s equity investment in a public company is classified as “available- for-sale” and carried at fair value. Unrealized gains on the available-for-sale securities, net of taxes, were recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income. Upon the Company’s adoption of ASU 2016-01, unrealized gains and losses on these available-for-sale securities are reflected in the statement of income and comprehensive income. The accompanying notes are an integral part of these financial statements. 19 20222021Manufactured housing 50,264,637$ 43,963,239$ Pre-owned homes 957,745 816,165 Insurance agent commissions 299,672 283,154 Total net sales 51,522,054$ 45,062,558$ Inventories – New home inventory is carried at a lower of cost or net realizable 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 the 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 net realizable value. Other pre-owned homes are acquired (Repossessions Inventory) as a convenience to the Company’s joint venture partner, 21st Mortgage Corporation. This inventory has been repossessed by 21st Mortgage Corporation or through mortgage foreclosure. The Company acquired this inventory at the amount of the uncollected balance of the financing at the time of the foreclosure/repossessions by 21st Mortgage Corporation. The Company records this inventory at a cost determined by the specific identification method. All of the refurbishment costs are paid by 21st Mortgage Corporation. This arrangement assists 21st Mortgage Corporation with liquidation of their repossessed inventory. The timing of these repurchases by the Company is unpredictable as it is based on the repossessions 21st Mortgage Corporation incurs in the portfolio. When the home is sold, the Company retains the cost of the home, an interest factor on the cost of the home and a sales commission, from the sales proceeds. Any additional proceeds are paid to 21 st Mortgage. Any shortfall from the proceeds to cover these amounts is paid by 21st Mortgage to the Company. As the Company has no risk of loss on the sale, there is no valuation allowance necessary for repossessions inventory. Inventory held at consignment locations by affiliated entities is included in the Company’s inventory on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. Consigned inventory was $318,590 and $794,766 as of November 5, 2022 and November 6, 2021, respectively. Pre-owned homes are also taken as trade-ins on new home sales (Trade-in Inventory). This inventory is recorded at estimated actual wholesale value, which is generally lower than market value, determined on the specific identification method, plus refurbishment costs incurred to date to bring the inventory to a more saleable state. The Trade-in Inventory amount is reduced where necessary on a unit specific basis by a valuation reserve, which management believes results in inventory being valued at net realizable value. Other inventory costs are determined on a first-in, first-out basis. See Note 6 “Inventories”. Property, Plant and Equipment – Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost and depreciated over their estimated useful lives using the straight-line method. Routine maintenance and repairs are charged to expense when incurred. Major replacements and improvements are capitalized. Gains or losses are credited or charged to earnings upon disposition. Investment in Majestic 21 – Majestic 21 was formed in 1997 as a joint venture with our joint venture partner, an unrelated entity, 21st Mortgage Corporation (“21st Mortgage”). We have been allocated our share of net income and distributions on a 50/50 basis since Majestic 21’s formation. While Majestic 21 has been deemed to be a variable interest entity, the Company only holds a 50% interest in this entity and all allocations of profit and loss are on a 50/50 basis. Since all allocations are to be made on a 50/50 basis and joint decisions with the joint venture partner are made which most significantly impact Majestic 21 economic performance therefore, the Company is not required to consolidate Majestic 21 with the accounts of Nobility Homes in accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) No. 810, “Consolidations” (ASC 810). Management believes that the Company’s maximum exposure to loss as a result of its involvement with Majestic 21 is its investment in the joint venture. Based on management’s evaluation, there was no impairment of this investment at November 5, 2022 or November 6, 2021. The Company entered into an arrangement in 2002 with 21st Mortgage to repurchase certain pre-owned homes. Under this arrangement or any other arrangement, the Company is not obligated to repurchase any foreclosed/repossessed units of Majestic 21 as it does not have a repurchase agreement or any other guarantees with Majestic 21. However, the Company buys from 21st Mortgage foreclosed/repossessed units from the Majestic 21 portfolio and acts as a remarketing agent. It resells those units through the Company’s network of retail centers which management believes benefits the historical loss experience of the joint venture. The only impact on the Company’s operations from this arrangement are commissions earned on the resale of these units and interest earned for the Company’s carrying costs of the units while in inventory. See Note 14 “Commitments and Contingent Liabilities”. Impairment of Long-Lived Assets – In the event that facts and circumstances indicate that the carrying value of a long-lived asset may be impaired, an evaluation of recoverability is performed by comparing the estimated future undiscounted cash flows associated with the asset to the asset’s carrying amount to determine if a write-down is required. If such evaluations indicate that the future The accompanying notes are an integral part of these financial statements. 20 undiscounted cash flows of certain long-lived assets are not sufficient to recover the carrying value of such assets, the assets are adjusted to their fair values. Customer Deposits – A retail customer is required to make a down payment ranging from $500 to 35% of the retail contract price based upon the creditworthiness of the customer. The retail customer receives the full down payment back when the Company is not able to obtain retail financing. If the retail customer receives retail financing and decides not to go through with the retail sale, the Company can withhold 20% of the retail contract price. The Company does not typically receive any deposits from independent dealers. Company Owned Life Insurance – The Company has purchased life insurance policies for certain key executives. Company owned life insurance is recorded at the amount that can be realized under the insurance contract at the balance sheet date, which is the cash surrender value adjusted for other charges or other amounts due that are probable at settlement. Warranty Costs – The Company provides a warranty as the manufactured homes are sold. Amounts related to these warranties for fiscal years 2022 and 2021 are as follows: 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. Accrued warranty costs are included in accrued expenses in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. Accrued Home Setup Costs – Accrued home setup costs represent amounts due to vendors and/or independent contractors for various items related to the actual setup of the home on the retail home buyers’ site. These costs include appliances, air conditioners, electrical/plumbing hook-ups, furniture, insurance, impact/permit fees, land/home fees, extended service plan, freight, skirting, steps, well, septic tanks and other setup costs and are included in accrued expenses in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. Stock-Based Compensation – The Company has a stock incentive plan (the “Plan”) which authorizes the issuance of options to purchase common stock. Stock-based compensation is measured at the grant date based on the fair value of the award and is recognized as an expense over the period during which an employee is required to provide service in exchange for the award (usually the vesting period). Rebate Program – The Company has a rebate program for some dealers based upon the number and type of home purchased, which pays rebates based upon sales volume to the dealers. Volume rebates are recorded as a reduction of sales in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. The rebate liability is calculated and recognized as eligible homes are sold based upon factors surrounding the activity and prior experience of specific dealers and is included in accrued expenses in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. There were no rebates earned by dealers during fiscal years 2022 and 2021. Advertising – Advertising for Prestige retail sales centers consists primarily of internet, newspaper, radio and television advertising. All costs are expensed as incurred. Advertising expenses amounted to approximately $70,123 and $141,581 for the fiscal years 2022 and 2021, respectively. Income Taxes – The Company accounts for income taxes utilizing the asset and liability method. This approach requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences attributable to temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets are reduced The accompanying notes are an integral part of these financial statements. 21 20222021Beginning accrued warranty expense 125,000$ 125,000$ Less: reduction for payments (428,031) (465,549) Plus: additions to accrual 428,031 465,549 Ending accrued warranty expense 125,000$ 125,000$ by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment. Net Income per Share – These financial statements include “basic” and “diluted” net income per share information for all periods presented. The basic net income per share is calculated by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of shares outstanding. The diluted net income per share is calculated by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of shares outstanding, adjusted for dilutive common shares. Shipping and Handling Costs – Net sales include the revenue related to shipping and handling charges billed to customers. The related costs associated with shipping and handling is included as a component of cost of goods sold. Segments – The Company’s chief operating decision maker is its Chief Executive Officer, who reviews financial information on a company-wide or consolidated basis. Accordingly, the Company accounts for its operations in accordance with FASB ASC No. 280, “Segment Reporting.” No segment disclosures have been made as the Company considers its business activities as a single segment. Major Customers –There were no customers that accounted for more than 10% of our total net sales in fiscal year 2022. Concentration of Credit Risk – The Company’s financial instruments that are exposed to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, short-term and long-term investments and accounts receivable. At times, the Company’s deposits may exceed federally insured limits. However, the Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts and management believes the Company is not exposed to any significant credit risk in these accounts. The majority of the Company’s sales are credit sales which are made primarily to customers whose ability to pay is dependent upon the industry economics prevailing in the areas where they operate; however, concentrations of credit risk with respect to accounts receivables is limited due to generally short payment terms. The Company also performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers to help further reduce credit risk. The Company maintains reserves for potential credit losses when deemed necessary and such losses have historically been within management’s expectations. Concentration of Retail Financing Sources –There are two national lenders that service the manufactured housing industry with several others who specialize in government insured loans (Fannie, Freddie, FHA, VA, etc.). With only a few lenders dedicated to our industry, the loss of any of them could adversely affect our retail sales. The accompanying notes are an integral part of these financial statements. 22 NOTE 2 Investments The following is a summary of short-term investments (available for sale): The fair values were estimated based on unadjusted quoted prices at each respective period end. NOTE 3 Fair Values of Financial Investments The carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents, accounts and notes receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses are approximate fair value because of the short maturity of those instruments. The Company accounts for the fair value of financial investments in accordance with FASB ASC No. 820, “Fair Value Measurements” (ASC 820). ASC 820 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 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 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 table represents the Company’s financial assets and liabilities which are carried at fair value at November 5, 2022 and November 6, 2021. The accompanying notes are an integral part of these financial statements. 23 Amortized CostGrossUnrealizedGainsGrossUnrealizedLossesEstimated FairValueEquity securities in a public company 167,930$ 421,141$ -$ 589,071$ Amortized CostGrossUnrealizedGainsGrossUnrealizedLossesEstimated FairValueEquity securities in a public company 167,930$ 453,998$ -$ 621,928$ November 6, 2021November 5, 2022Level 1Level 2Level 3Equity securities in a public company 589,071$ -$ -$ Level 1Level 2Level 3Equity securities in a public company 621,928$ -$ -$ November 6, 2021November 5, 2022 NOTE 4 Related Party Transactions Affiliated Entities TLT, Inc. – Our President and Chairman of the Board of Directors (“President”) and the Executive Vice President each own 50% of the stock of TLT, Inc. TLT, Inc. is the general partner of limited partnerships which are developing manufactured housing communities in Central Florida (the “TLT Communities”). Our President owns between a 24.75% and a 56.0% direct and indirect interest in each of these limited partnerships. Our Executive Vice President owns between a 23.0% and a 57.75% direct and indirect interest in each of these limited partnerships. The TLT Communities have purchased manufactured homes exclusively from the Company since 1990. Sales to TLT Communities were not significant during fiscal years 2022 and 2021. Repurchase of Common Stock – In April 2022, the Company repurchased 100,000 shares of common stock from our President at $32.61 per share. NOTE 5 Other Investments Investment in Joint Venture – Majestic 21 – During fiscal 1997, the Company contributed $250,000 for a 50% interest in a joint venture engaged in providing mortgage financing on manufactured homes. This investment is accounted for under the equity method of accounting. While Majestic 21 has been deemed to be a variable interest entity, the Company only holds a 50% interest in this entity and all allocations of profit and loss are on a 50/50 basis. Since all allocations are to be made on a 50/50 basis and the Company’s maximum exposure is limited to its investment in Majestic 21, management has concluded that the Company would not absorb a majority of Majestic 21’s expected losses nor receive a majority of Majestic 21’s expected residual returns; therefore, the Company is not required to consolidate Majestic 21 with the accounts of Nobility Homes in accordance with ASC 810. See Note 14 “Commitments and Contingent Liabilities”. We received no distributions from the joint venture in fiscal year 2022 or 2021. With regard to our investment in Majestic 21, there are no differences between our investment balance and the amount of underlying equity in net assets owned by Majestic 21. NOTE 6 Inventories A breakdown of the elements of inventory at November 5, 2022 and November 6, 2021 is as follows: The accompanying notes are an integral part of these financial statements. 24 November 5, 2022November 6, 2021Raw materials 2,119,372$ 2,225,532$ Work-in-process 135,513 97,021 Inventory consigned to affiliated entities 318,590 794,766 Finished homes - Nobility9,583,095 7,140,880 Finished homes - Other10,432,998 - Model home furniture 185,671 136,089 Inventories 22,775,239$ 10,394,288$ Pre-owned homes 682,254$ 1,297,475$ Less homes expected to sell in 12 months (682,254) (542,081) Pre-owned homes, long-term -$ 755,394$ NOTE 7 Property, Plant and Equipment Property, plant and equipment, along with their estimated useful lives and related accumulated depreciation are summarized as follows: Depreciation expenses during the years ended November 5, 2022 and November 6, 2021 totaled $169,661 and $186,320, respectively. NOTE 8 Accrued Expenses and Other Current Liabilities Accrued expenses and other current liabilities are comprised of the following: NOTE 9 Proceeds Received Under Escrow Arrangement The Company received $364,520 in fiscal year 2022 and $246,216 in fiscal year 2021 under an escrow arrangement related to a Finance Revenue Sharing Agreement between 21st Mortgage Corporation and the Company. The distributions from the escrow account, related to certain loans financed by 21st Mortgage Corporation, are recorded in income by the Company when received, which has been the Company’s past practice. NOTE 10 Income Taxes The Company computes income tax expense using the liability method. Under this method, deferred income taxes are provided, to the extent considered realizable by management, for basis differences of assets and liabilities for financial reporting and income tax purposes. The Company follows guidance issued by the FASB with respect to accounting for uncertainty in income taxes. A tax position is recognized as a benefit only if it is “more-likely-than-not” that the tax position would be sustained in a tax examination, with a tax examination being presumed to occur. The amount recognized is the largest amount of tax benefit that is greater than 50% likely of being realized on examination. For tax positions not meeting the “more-likely-than-not” test, no tax benefit is recorded. The Company and its subsidiaries are subject to U.S. federal income tax, as well as income tax of the state of Florida. The Company’s income tax returns for the past three years are subject to examination by tax authorities and may change upon examination.

The Company did not reflect any amounts for interest and penalties in its 2022 or 2021 statements of operations, nor are any amounts accrued for interest and penalties at November 5, 2022 and November 6, 2021. The provision for income taxes for the years ended consists of the following: The following table shows the reconciliation between the statutory federal income tax rate and the actual provision for income taxes for the years ended: The types of temporary differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their financial reporting amounts and the related deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are as follows: The accompanying notes are an integral part of these financial statements. 26 November 5, 2022November 6, 2021Current tax expense:Federal 2,009,567$ 1,327,166$ State 338,284 289,593 Deferred tax (benefit) (143,346) 103,166 Provision for income taxes 2,204,505$ 1,719,925$ November 5, 2022November 6, 2021Provision—federal statutory tax rate 1,981,672$ 1,494,934$ Increase (decrease) resulting from:State taxes, net of federal tax benefit 263,528 250,708 Permanent differences:Decrease in FL corporate tax rate- (135) Other (40,695) (25,582) Provision for income taxes 2,204,505$ 1,719,925$ November 5, 2022November 6, 2021Deferred tax assets:Allowance for doubtful accounts 58,173$ 55,455$ Prepaid Expenses .14,995 14,295 Accrued expenses 198,633 107,893 Other assets 32,411 17,789 Lease right of use liability - 382 Stock-based compensation 34,789 19,502 Total deferred tax assets 339,001 215,316 Deferred tax liabilities:Depreciation (123,033) (135,466) Carrying value of investments (106,253) (109,146) Amortization (39,206) (37,374) Prepaid expenses (26,731) (32,516) Lease right of use asset - (382) Net deferred tax assets (liabilities) 43,778$ (99,568)$ These amounts are included in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets under the following captions: In assessing the ability to realize a portion of the deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. For fiscal years 2022 and 2021, the Company determined that a valuation reserve for the Company’s deferred tax assets was not considered necessary as the deferred tax assets were fully realizable. NOTE 11 Stockholders’ Equity Authorized preferred stock may be issued in series with rights and preferences designated by the Board of Directors at the time it authorizes the issuance of such stock. The Company has never issued any preferred stock. Treasury stock is recorded at cost and is presented as a reduction of stockholders’ equity in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. The Company repurchased 162,570 and 100,346 shares of its common stock during fiscal years 2022 and 2021, respectively. NOTE 12 Stock Option Plan In June 2011, the Company’s Board of Directors adopted, and the Company’s shareholders later approved, the Nobility Homes, Inc. 2011 Stock Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), providing for the issuance of options to purchase shares of common stock, stock appreciation rights and other stock-based awards to employees and non-employee directors. A total of 300,000 shares were reserved for issuance under the Plan, all of which may be issued pursuant to the exercise of incentive stock options. The Plan was amended by the Board of Directors to extend the termination date from June 2021 until June 1, 2026. At November 5, 2022, 233,800 options were available for future grant under the Plan and 66,200 options were outstanding. The Company measures the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments based on the grant-date fair value of the award. The cost is to be recognized over the period during which an employee is required to provide a service in exchange for the award (usually the vesting period). The grant date fair value of employee share options and similar instruments will be estimated using option-pricing models adjusted for the unique characteristics of those instruments (unless observable market prices for the same or similar instruments are available). If an equity award is modified after the grant date, incremental compensation cost will be recognized in an amount equal to the excess of the fair value of the modified award over the fair value of the original award immediately before the modification. During fiscal years 2022 and 2021, the Company recognized compensation costs related to the vesting of stock options of approximately $105,442 and $69,750 respectively. The accompanying notes are an integral part of these financial statements. 27 November 5, 2022November 6, 2021Current assets (liabilities):Deferred tax assets -$ -$ Deferred tax liabilities - - Net current deferred tax assets - - Non-current assets (liabilities): Deferred tax assets 339,001 215,316 Deferred tax liabilities (295,223) (314,884) Net non-current deferred tax assets (liabilities) 43,778 (99,568) Net deferred tax assets (liabilities) 43,778$ (99,568)$ A summary of information with respect to options granted is as follows: * Options for the exercise of 1,500 shares were exercised on a cashless basis, resulting in the net issuance of 966 shares. The aggregate intrinsic value in the table above represents total intrinsic value (of options in the money), which is the difference between the Company’s closing stock price on the last trading day of fiscal year 2022 and the exercise price times the number of shares, that would have been received by the option holder had the option holder exercised their options on November 5, 2022. The following table summarizes information about the outstanding stock options at November 5, 2022: The fair value of each option is determined using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model which values options based on the stock price at the grant date, the expected life of the option, the estimated volatility of the stock, expected dividend payments, and the risk- free interest rate over the expected life of the option. The dividend yield was calculated by dividing the current annualized dividend by the option exercise price for each grant. The expected volatility was determined considering the Company’s historical stock prices for the fiscal year the grant occurred and prior fiscal years for a period equal to the expected life of the option. The risk-free interest rate was the rate available on zero coupon U.S. government obligations with a term equal to the expected life of the option. The expected life of the option was estimated based on the exercise history from previous grants. NOTE 13 Employee Benefit Plan The Company has a defined contribution retirement plan (the “Plan”) qualifying under Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code. The Plan covers employees who have met certain service requirements. The Company makes a discretionary matching contribution, up to a maximum of 6% of an employee’s compensation.

Controls and Procedures Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures. The Company’s Chief Executive Officer (principal executive officer) and Chief Financial Officer (principal financial officer) have evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a–15(e) and 15d–15(e) 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”).

Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting. The Company’s management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate and effective internal control over financial reporting in order to provide reasonable assurance of the reliability of the Company’s financial reporting and preparation of financial statements for external reporting purposes in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Internal control over financial reporting involves policies and procedure that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and disposition of assets of the issuer; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the issuer are being made in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the issuer; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the issuer Company assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. The Company’s management assessed the effectiveness of its internal control over financial reporting as of November 5, 2022, based on criteria established in Internal Control Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission and determined that its internal controls were effective. This annual report does not include an attestation report of the Company’s registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Changes in internal control over financial reporting. There were no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting that occurred during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting.
