If so, attach an explanation of the anticipated change, both narratively and quantitatively, and if, appropriate, state the reasons why a reasonable estimate of the results cannot be made.
The Registrant anticipates that it will report significant changes in results of operations for the quarter ended January 31, 2009 compared to the same period of the prior year due primarily to an industry-wide decline in shipments of manufactured homes in Florida. Total net sales in the first quarter of 2009 were approximately $3.5 million compared to $8.1 million in the first quarter of 2008. Net income in the first quarter of 2009 was approximately $(0.1) million compared to approximately $0.6 million in the first quarter of 2008. Sales and operations for the first quarter of 2009 were adversely impacted by our country’s severe economic uncertainty and the reduced manufactured housing shipments in Florida, plus the overall decline in Florida and the nation’s housing market. Industry shipments in Florida for the period of November 2008 through January 2009 were down approximately 52% from the same period last year.
