        Terry Trexler, President, stated, “Fiscal year 2005 was another very good year for Nobility Homes despite a very competitive and difficult environment in the manufacturing housing industry. Fourth quarter sales of fiscal year 2005, although a strong sales quarter for our retail organization, were adversely impacted by the volatile pricing in lumber, OSB, sheetrock, steel and oil related products and services. Overall, most construction materials, including materials used in the set-up of our homes, have increased or fluctuated widely in price over the past year with little price stability in sight. Nobility continues to out-perform the industry, however in the near term we anticipate continued pressure on both sales and earnings resulting from these factors. Management remains optimistic for fiscal 2006, convinced that our specific geographic market is one of the best long-term growth areas in the country and because of the strong operating leverage inherent in the Company. With an improving economy, declining unemployment claims, and increasing but still low interest rates in 2006, management expects the demand for our homes to grow. Increased demand should also result from building replacement homes due to the hurricanes. The Company is well positioned to capitalize on the demand in the future by controlling the retail distribution, financing, and insuring of our homes and by being financially sound to take advantage of opportunities as they develop.”

        Nobility Homes, Inc. has specialized for the past 38 years in the design and production of quality, affordable manufactured homes at its two plants located in central Florida. With nineteen Company retail sales centers, a finance company joint venture, and an insurance subsidiary, Nobility is the only vertically integrated manufactured home company headquartered in Florida.
