Champion Homes, Inc. (SKY)

In November 2025, Champion Homes announced its Q2 Fiscal 2026 earnings, reporting increases in net sales, net income, and EPS, with the board refreshing authorization for share repurchases. In December 2025, Dave McKinstray was appointed CFO. In February 2026, the company announced its Q3 Fiscal 2026 results, showing increased net sales and average selling price per U.S. home, but a narrowed gross margin and decreased net income. Despite a challenging sales environment, the company's stock rose after these better-than-expected Q3 earnings. In May 2026, Champion Homes' shares declined due to renewed Middle East tensions, falling homebuilder confidence, and an unexpected accrual for remediation costs related to water intrusion issues. Softer Canadian demand and a significant drop in gross margins also contributed to the stock's decline.

Demand for Champion Homes' products experiences normal winter seasonality, which contributed to a slowdown in Q3 orders. Early spring selling season trends are generally encouraging. The company actively manages production rates based on local market trends and aims to maintain a normal backlog range of 4 to 12 weeks.
