First Quarter Fiscal 2027 Results
Net sales for the first quarter of fiscal 2027 increased 1.3% to $710.2 million compared to the prior-year period. The number of U.S. homes sold in the first quarter of fiscal 2027 increased 1.8% to 7,089, driven primarily by an increase in sales from captive retail stores. The ASP per U.S. home sold increased 0.6% to $95,600 due to increased prices on new homes sold through our company-owned retail sales centers. The number of Canadian factory-built homes sold in the quarter was 185.
Gross profit was $179.3 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2027. Adjusted gross profit was $179.0 million for an adjusted gross profit margin of 25.2%. Higher material costs were partially offset by modest sales growth and pricing benefits in company-owned retail.
Selling, general and administrative expenses (SG&A) in the first quarter of fiscal 2027 increased to $119.0 million from $111.3 million in the same period last year, due to the inclusion of Iseman Homes and the company’s expanded retail footprint. On an adjusted basis, SG&A increased 8.6% to $116.8 million. Adjusted SG&A as a percentage of net sales was 16.4%.
Net income was $49.2 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2027. Adjusted net income was $48.3 million. The decrease in net income compared to the prior year was primarily driven by inflationary increases in cost of sales and a higher effective tax rate due to the elimination of Energy Star tax credits.
EBITDA was $74.0 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2027 and adjusted EBITDA was $73.6 million. Adjusted EBITDA margin for the quarter was 10.4%.
As of June 27, Champion Homes had $784.7 million in cash and cash equivalents. The company repurchased and retired $50.0 million of its common stock during the first quarter under the previously announced repurchase program. In July 2026, the Board of Directors refreshed the share repurchase authorization to provide for $150.0 million of potential future repurchases.
