Champion Homes ( (SKY) ) has shared an update.
Champion Homes reported third-quarter fiscal 2026 results on February 3, 2026, showing modest top-line growth but softer profitability for the period ended December 27, 2025. Net sales rose 1.8% year on year to $656.6 million, driven in part by a 4.6% increase in average selling price per U.S. home to $99,300 and stronger Canadian factory-built home volumes, even as U.S. homes sold fell 2.6% and backlog declined 15.1% from the prior quarter. Higher materials costs and lower volume absorption weighed on margins, with gross margin contracting 190 basis points to 26.2%, net income falling 11.7% to $54.3 million, and adjusted EBITDA down 10.2% to $74.8 million, while adjusted EBITDA margin slid to 11.4%. The company generated $100 million in operating cash flow, ended the quarter with $659.8 million in cash and cash equivalents, and repurchased $50 million of stock, after which the board moved on January 29, 2026 to increase the share repurchase authorization to restore available capacity to $150 million, underscoring continued balance-sheet strength and an ongoing commitment to returning capital to shareholders despite a challenging demand environment and margin pressure.
