Item 1.

Business.

General Development of Business

Skyline Corporation was originally incorporated in Indiana in 1959, as successor to a business founded in 1951. Skyline Corporation and its consolidated subsidiaries (the “Corporation”, “Skyline”) designs, produces and markets manufactured housing, modular housing and park models to independent dealers and manufactured housing communities located throughout the United States and Canada. Manufactured housing is built to standards established by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development, modular homes are built according to state, provincial or local building codes, and park models are built according to specifications established by the American National Standards Institute.

The Corporation sold 3,679 manufactured homes, 313 modular homes and 447 park models in fiscal 2017.

The Corporation’s housing products are marketed under a number of trademarks. They are available in lengths ranging from 30’ to 76’ and in singlewide widths from 12’ to 18’, doublewide widths from 18’ to 32’, and triplewide widths from 36’ to 46’. The area of a singlewide ranges from approximately 400 to 1,200 square feet, a doublewide from approximately 700 to 2,400 square feet, and a triplewide from approximately 1,600 to 2,900 square feet.

As noted in “Discontinued Operations” in Item 7, the Corporation sold its recreational vehicle business during fiscal 2015 in order to focus on its core housing business. The Corporation’s park model business, which was formerly reported in the recreational vehicle segment, was not disposed as part of the sale and is now reported in the housing segment because net sales do not warrant separate segment reporting.

Financial Information about Segments

The Corporation operates in one business segment: housing. Prior to fiscal 2015, the Corporation reported net sales, operating results and total assets in two business segments; housing and recreational vehicles. During the second quarter of fiscal 2015, however, the Corporation made a strategic decision to exit the recreational vehicle industry in order to focus on its core housing business. In this regard, in October 2014 the Corporation sold substantially all of its recreational vehicle-related assets to Evergreen Recreational Vehicles, LLC. Operating results of the former recreational vehicle business are reported as discontinued operations in the consolidated statements of operations for all periods presented herein, and the recreational vehicle segment is no longer included in segment reporting (see Note 2 to the Consolidated Financial Statements).

Narrative Description of Business

Principal Products and Markets

The Corporation’s homes are marketed under a number of trademarks, and are available in a variety of dimensions. Manufactured housing models are built according to standards established by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development.

Modular homes are built according to state, provincial or local building codes. Each home typically includes two to four bedrooms, kitchen, dining area, living room, one or two bathrooms, kitchen appliances, central heating and cooling. Custom options may include but are not limited to: exterior dormers and windows; interior or exterior accent columns; fireplaces and whirlpool tubs. Materials used to construct a manufactured or a modular home are similar to those used in site-built housing. The Corporation also sells homes that are “Energy-Star” compliant.

Park models are marketed under the “Shore Park” trademark. The Corporation’s park models are intended to provide temporary living accommodations for individuals seeking leisure travel and outdoor recreation.

The principal markets for manufactured and modular housing are the suburban and rural areas of the continental United States and Canada. The principal buyers continue to be individuals over the age of fifty, but the market tends to broaden when conventional housing becomes more difficult to purchase and finance.

Item 1.

Business — (Continued).

Principal Products and Markets — (Continued)

The park model market is made up of primarily vacationing families and retired couples.

The Corporation provides the retail purchaser of its homes and park models with a full fifteen-month warranty against defects in design, materials and workmanship. The warranties are backed by service departments located at the Corporation’s manufacturing facilities and an extensive field service system.

The amount and percentage of net sales contributed by manufactured housing, modular housing and park model products is noted in Item 7.

Method of Distribution

The Corporation’s products are distributed by approximately 318 independent dealers at 653 locations throughout the United States and Canada. These are generally not exclusive dealerships and it is believed that most dealers also sell products of other manufacturers.

The Corporation’s products are sold to dealers either through floor plan financing with various financial institutions or on a cash basis. Payments to the Corporation are made either directly by the dealer or by financial institutions, which have agreed to finance dealer purchases of the Corporation’s products. In accordance with industry practice, certain financial institutions which finance dealer purchases require the Corporation to execute repurchase agreements in which the Corporation agrees, that in the event a dealer defaults on its repayment of the financing, the Corporation will repurchase its products from the financial institution in accordance with a declining repurchase price schedule agreed to by the financial institution and the Corporation. Any loss under these agreements is the difference between the repurchase cost and the resale value of the units repurchased. Further, the risk of loss is spread over numerous dealers.

The Corporation had no losses related to repurchases in fiscal year 2017, and losses of $50,000 related to repurchases of recreational vehicles in fiscal year 2016.

Additional information regarding these repurchase agreements is included in Note 10, Commitments and Contingencies, in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements under Item 8.

Raw Materials and Supplies

The Corporation is basically an assembler and installer of components purchased from outside sources. The major components used by the Corporation are electrical components, lumber, plywood, shingles, vinyl and wood siding, steel, aluminum, insulation, home appliances, furnaces, plumbing fixtures, hardware, floor coverings and furniture. The suppliers are many and range in size from large national companies to very small local companies. At the present time the Corporation is obtaining sufficient materials to fulfill its needs.

Patents, Trademarks, Licenses, Franchises and Concessions

The Corporation does not rely upon any terminable or nonrenewable rights such as patents, licenses or franchises under the trademarks or patents of others, in the conduct of its business.

Seasonal Fluctuations

While the Corporation maintains production of homes and park models throughout the year, seasonal fluctuations in sales do occur. Sales and production of homes are affected by winter weather conditions at the Corporation’s northern plants. Park model sales are generally higher in the spring and summer months than in the fall and winter months.

Inventory

The Corporation does not maintain significant finished goods inventories. In addition, there are no inventories sold on consignment.

Item 1.

Business — (Continued).

Dependence Upon Individual Customers

During fiscal 2017, no individual customer had net sales exceeding 10 percent of total net sales. During fiscal 2016, net sales to Sun Home Services, Inc. (“Sun Home”) totaled $22,231,000 or 10 percent of total net sales. Based on past sales to Sun Home, the Corporation could have a material adverse effect on its financial condition and results of operations if the Corporation experienced a loss of this customer or if the volume of sales significantly decreased.

Backlog

The Corporation does not consider the existence and extent of backlog to be significant in its business. The Corporation’s production is based on a relatively short manufacturing cycle and customer orders, which continuously fluctuate.

As such, the existence of backlog is insignificant at any given date and does not typically provide a reliable indication of the status of the Corporation’s business.

Government Contracts

The Corporation has had no government contracts during the past three years.

Competitive Conditions

The Corporation’s primary competitors range from multi-billion dollar corporations to relatively small and specialized manufacturers. The principal methods of competition include but are not limited to price, features, service, warranty and product performance. Service and product performance are believed to be competitive advantages, while lack of vertical integration is considered a competitive disadvantage. The Corporation also competes with companies that provide other forms of housing, such as new and existing site-built homes, apartments, condominiums and townhouses.

The following tables show the Corporation’s competitive position on a calendar and fiscal year basis in the product lines it sells.


	Units Shipped *Calendar Year 2016*							Units Shipped *Calendar Year 2015*
	Industry		Skyline		Market Share			Industry		Skyline		Market Share
Manufactured housing		81,169		3,606		4.4	%		70,519		2,872		4.1	%
Modular housing		13,881		334		2.4	%		13,974		341		2.4	%
Park models		3,669		419		11.4	%		3,649		380		10.4	%


	Units Shipped *Fiscal Year 2017*							Units Shipped *Fiscal Year 2016*
	Industry		Skyline		Market Share			Industry		Skyline		Market Share
Manufactured housing		86,999		3,679		4.2	%		75,857		3,217		4.2	%
Park models		3,886		447		11.5	%		3,479		337		9.7	%

The competitive position for modular housing on a fiscal year basis is omitted because industry data is only available on a calendar quarter basis.

The Corporation’s business is affected by the availability of wholesale and retail financing. Consequently, increases in interest rates and the availability of credit through governmental action or otherwise, have adversely affected the Corporation’s business in the past and may do so again in the future.

Environmental Quality

The Corporation believes that compliance with federal, state and local requirements with respect to environmental quality will not require any material capital expenditures for plant or equipment modifications which would adversely affect earnings.

Item 1.

Business — (Continued).

Government Regulations

The manufacture, distribution and sale of manufactured housing, modular housing and park models are subject to government regulations in the United States at federal, state and local levels. The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) has set national manufactured home construction and safety standards and implemented recall and other regulations since 1976. The National Manufactured Housing Construction and Safety Standards Act of 1974, as amended, under which such standards and regulations are promulgated, prohibits states from establishing or continuing in effect any manufactured home standard that is not identical to the federal standards as to any covered aspect of performance. Implementation of these standards and regulations involves inspection agency approval of manufactured home designs, plant and home inspection by states or other HUD-approved third parties, manufacturer certification that the standards are met, and possible recalls if they are not or if homes contain safety hazards.

HUD has promulgated rules requiring producers of manufactured homes to utilize wood products certified by their suppliers to meet HUD’s established limits on formaldehyde emissions, and to place in each home written notice to prospective purchasers of possible adverse reaction from airborne formaldehyde in the homes. These rules are designated as preemptive of state regulation. Some components of manufactured and modular housing may also be subject to Consumer Product Safety Commission standards and recall requirements.

Regarding park models, the Corporation has voluntarily subjected itself to third party inspection in order to further assure the Corporation, its dealers, and customers of compliance with established standards.

Manufactured housing, modular housing and park model sales may be subject to the Magnuson–Moss Warranty – Federal Trade Commission Improvement Act, which regulates warranties on consumer products.

The Corporation’s operations are subject to the Federal Occupational Safety and Health Act, and are routinely inspected thereunder.

The transportation and placement (in the case of manufactured and modular housing) of the Corporation’s products are subject to state highway use regulations and local ordinances which control the size of units that may be transported, the roads to be used, speed limits, hours of travel, and allowable locations for manufactured homes and communities.

The Corporation is also subject to many state manufacturer licensing and bonding requirements, and to dealer day in court requirements in some states.

The Corporation believes that it is currently in compliance with the above regulations.

Number of Employees

The Corporation employed approximately 1,300 people at May 31, 2017.

Executive Officers of the Corporation

Item 1A.

Risk Factors.

Investors or potential investors should carefully consider the risks described below. Additional risks of which the Corporation is presently unaware or that the Corporation considers immaterial may also impair business operations and hinder financial performance.

Incurrence of Net Losses

Due to negative economic conditions that impacted the manufactured housing, modular housing and recreational vehicle industries, the Corporation incurred net losses from fiscal years 2008 to 2015. Losses in future years could negatively affect the Corporation’s liquidity.

Changing Consumer Preferences

Changes in consumer preferences for manufactured housing, modular housing and park models occur over time, and consequently the Corporation responds to changing demand by evaluating the market acceptability of its products. Delays in responding to changing consumer preferences could have an adverse effect on net sales, operating results and cash flows.

Dependence on Independent Dealers

The Corporation sells its manufactured homes, modular homes and park models to independent dealers. These dealers are not obligated to exclusively sell the Corporation’s products, and may choose to sell competitor’s products. In addition, a dealer may become financially insolvent and be forced to close its business. Both scenarios could have an adverse effect on net sales, operating results and cash flows.

Cost and Availability of Raw Materials

Prices and availability of raw materials used to manufacture the Corporation’s products can change significantly due to fluctuations in supply and demand. In addition, the cost of raw materials is also influenced by transportation costs. The Corporation has historically been able to have an adequate supply of raw materials by maintaining good relations with its vendors. Increased prices have historically been passed on to dealers by raising the price of manufactured housing, modular housing and park models. There is no certainty that the Corporation will be able to pass on future price increases and maintain an adequate supply of raw materials. The inability to raise the price of its products and to maintain a proper supply of materials could have a negative impact on net sales, operating results and cash flows.

Dealer Inventories

As wholesale shipments of manufactured homes, modular homes and park models exceed retail sales, dealer inventories reach a level where dealers decrease orders from manufacturers. As manufacturers respond to reduced demand, many either offer discounts to maintain production volumes or curtail production levels. Both outcomes could have a negative impact on net sales, operating results and cash flows.

Competition

As noted in Item 1, the manufactured housing, modular housing and park model industries are highly competitive with particular emphasis on price and features offered. Some of the Corporation’s competitors are vertically integrated by owning retail, consumer finance and insurance operations. This integration may provide competitors with an advantage with dealers. In addition, the Corporation’s housing products compete with other forms of housing, such as new and existing site-built homes, apartments, condominiums and townhouses. The inability to effectively compete in this environment could result in lower net sales, operating results and cash flows.

Item 1A.

Risk Factors. — (Continued).

Retail Financing Availability

Customers who purchase the Corporation’s products generally obtain retail financing from third party lenders. The availability, terms and cost of retail financing depend on the lending practices of financial institutions, governmental policies and economic and other conditions, all of which are beyond the Corporation’s control. A customer seeking to purchase a manufactured home without land will generally pay a higher interest rate and have a shorter loan maturity versus a customer financing the purchase of land and a home. This difference is due to most states classifying home-only manufactured housing loans as personal property rather than real property for purposes of taxation and lien perfection.

In past years, many lenders of home-only financing have tightened credit underwriting standards, with some deciding to exit the industry. These actions resulted in decreased availability of retail financing, causing a negative effect on sales and operating results. If retail financing were to be further curtailed, net sales, operating results and cash flows could be adversely affected.

Wholesale Financing Availability

Independent dealers of the Corporation’s products generally finance their inventory purchases with wholesale floor plan financing provided by lending institutions. A dealer’s ability to obtain financing is significantly affected by the number of lending institutions offering floor planning, and by an institution’s lending limits. In past years, the industries in which the Corporation operates experienced a reduction in both the number of lenders offering floor planning and the amount of money available for financing. Any further decline in wholesale financing could have a negative impact on a dealer’s ability to purchase manufactured housing, modular housing and park model products, resulting in lower net sales, operating results and cash flows.

Governmental Regulations

As noted in Item 1, the Corporation is subject to various governmental regulations. Implementation of new regulations or amendments to existing regulations could significantly increase the cost of the Corporation’s products. In addition, failure to comply with present or future regulations could result in fines or potential civil or criminal liability. Both scenarios could negatively impact net sales, operating results and cash flows.

Contingent Repurchase Agreements

As referenced in Note 10 to the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 8, the Corporation is contingently liable under repurchase agreements with certain financial institutions providing inventory financing for retailers of its products. The Corporation could be required to fulfill some or all of the repurchase agreements, resulting in increased expense and reduced cash flows.

Cyclical and Seasonal Nature of Business

The industries in which the Corporation operates are highly cyclical, and are impacted by but not limited to the following conditions:

•

Availability of wholesale and retail financing;

•

Consumer confidence;

•

Interest rates;

•

Demographic and employment trends;

•

Availability of used or repossessed homes or park model; and

•

Impact of inflation.

Sales associated with the manufactured housing, modular housing and park model industries are also seasonal in nature with sales being lowest in the winter months. Seasonal changes, in addition to weakness in demand in one or both of the Corporation’s market segments, could materially impact the Corporation’s net sales, operating results and cash flows.

Item 1A.

Risk Factors. — (Continued).

Dependence on Executive Officers and Other Key Personnel

The Corporation depends on the efforts of its executive officers and certain key employees. An unexpected loss of the service of one or more of these individuals could have an adverse effect on net sales, operating results and cash flows of the Corporation.

Covenant Compliance

The Corporation’s secured revolving credit facility necessitates compliance with various financial covenants. During the second and third quarters of fiscal 2017, the Corporation did not meet certain financial covenants. Waiver of the covenant defaults were obtained. The inability to meet covenants in the future represents an event of default, which if not cured or waived could negatively affect the Corporation’s ability to obtain financing under the facility and thereby have an adverse effect on liquidity.

Information Technology

The Corporation utilizes information technology and other computer resources (“computer systems”) to perform various operational tasks, and record and maintain business data. These computer systems are vulnerable to damage or interruption from power outages, telecommunications or internet failures, computer viruses, computer breaches, catastrophic events or human error. If computer systems and corresponding backup systems are damaged or fail to function property, the Corporation could have disruptions in production and operational delays that could have an adverse effect on sales, operating results and cash flows.

The Corporation also owns undeveloped land in McMinnville, Oregon. During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2017, a manufactured housing plant located in Mansfield, Texas was sold for a gain of $1,502,000.

The total unit productive capacity of the Corporation is not readily ascertainable due to the ever-changing product mix. The Corporation believes that its plant facilities, machinery and equipment are well maintained and are in good operating condition.

Item 3.

Legal Proceedings.

The Corporation is a party to various pending legal proceedings in the normal course of business. Management believes that any losses resulting from such proceedings would not have a material adverse effect on the Corporation’s results of operations or financial position.

Item 4.

Mine Safety Disclosures.

Not applicable.

Overview

The Corporation designs, produces and markets manufactured housing, modular housing and park models to independent dealers, developers, campgrounds and manufactured housing communities located throughout the United States and Canada. To better serve the needs of its dealers, developers, campgrounds and communities, the Corporation has multiple facilities in several states. Manufactured housing, modular housing and park models are sold to customers either through floor plan financing with various financial institutions, credit terms, or on a cash basis. While the Corporation maintains production of manufactured housing, modular homes and park models throughout the year, seasonal fluctuations in sales do occur.

Manufactured Housing, Modular Housing and Park Model Industry Conditions

Sales and production of manufactured housing, modular housing and park models are affected by winter weather conditions at the Corporation’s northern plants. Manufactured and modular housing are marketed under a number of trademarks, and are available in a variety of dimensions. Park models are marketed under the “Shore Park” trademark.

Manufactured housing products are built according to standards established by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development. Modular homes are built according to state, provincial or local building codes. Park models are built according to specifications established by the American National Standards Institute, and are intended to provide temporary living accommodations for individuals seeking leisure travel and outdoor recreation.

Sales of manufactured housing, modular housing and park models are affected by the strength of the U.S. economy, interest rate and employment levels, consumer confidence and the availability of wholesale and retail financing. Recent trends regarding calendar year unit shipments of the Corporation’s products and their respective industries are as follows:

Discontinued Operations

During September 2014, the Corporation made a strategic decision to exit the recreational vehicle industry in order to focus on its core housing business. As a result, on October 7, 2014, the Corporation completed the sale of certain assets associated with its recreational vehicle segment to Evergreen Recreational Vehicles, LLC.

The following table summarizes the results of discontinued operations:

Elkhart, Indiana and Mansfield, Texas Facilities

In the third and fourth quarters of fiscal 2017, the Corporation entered into a restructuring plan involving the suspension of operations at facilities in Elkhart, Indiana and Mansfield, Texas. Production ceased at both facilities in the fourth quarter. There were neither one-time termination agreements nor material costs related to the termination of contracts such as leases related to the restructuring. Inventory and fixed asset sale and disposal losses related to the restructuring totaled $170,000 and $222,000, respectively. No liability related to the restructuring was recorded as of May 31, 2017. The Corporation anticipates that a portion of customers previously served by these plants will be serviced by its facilities in Arkansas City, Kansas and Sugarcreek, Ohio. Mansfield’s real property and equipment was sold in the fourth quarter as noted in “Net Gain on Sale of Property, Plant and Equipment.”

Elkhart, Indiana and Mansfield, Texas Facilities — (Continued)

Net sales and net losses incurred by these facilities, excluding corporate overhead allocations and the net gain on the sale of property, plant and equipment were as follows:

Net (Loss)	$	(730	)	$	(466	)	$	(606	)	$	(736	)	$	(2,538	)

Although the Corporation expects cost reductions as a result of these closings, the amounts of the reported losses are not necessarily predictive of the amounts of the cost savings because sales and production of at least a portion of these homes will potentially occur at other existing facilities as discussed above.

Secured Revolving Credit Facility

On March 20, 2015, the Corporation (“Borrower(s)”) entered into a Loan and Security Agreement (the “Loan Agreement”) with First Business Capital Corp. Under the Loan Agreement, First Business Capital will provide a secured revolving credit facility to the Borrowers for a term of three years, renewable on an annual basis thereafter with each renewal for a successive one-year term. The Corporation may obtain loan advances up to a maximum of $10,000,000 subject to certain collateral-obligation ratios. In addition, loan advances bear interest at 3.75% in excess of The Wall Street Journal’s published one-year LIBOR rate, and are secured by substantially all of the Borrowers’ assets, now owned or hereafter acquired. Interest is payable monthly, in arrears, and all principal and accrued but unpaid interest is due and payable upon termination of the Loan Agreement. First Business Capital also agreed under the Loan Agreement to issue, or cause to be issued by a bank affiliate or other bank, letters of credit for the account of the Corporation. However, no advances have yet been made in connection with such letters of credit.

During the first quarter of fiscal 2016, the Corporation on two occasions did not meet a covenant requiring a monthly loss not exceeding $500,000. Consequently, the Corporation received in the second quarter a waiver of the defaults that occurred. In addition, the following modifications were made to the Loan Agreement.

•

A covenant specifying that a monthly loss not exceed $500,000 was modified to $1,500,000 for December 2015, $1,000,000 for January 2016, and $1,000,000 for February, 2016. Following February 2016, the maximum monthly net loss as noted in the original Loan Agreement returns to $500,000 for March to May 2016, and $250,000 thereafter;

•

The limit for the lease, purchase or acquisition of any asset increased from $600,000 per year to $800,000 per year; and

•

The monthly bank assessment fee increased from .25% per annum to .35% per annum.

Item 7.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations — (Continued).

Secured Revolving Credit Facility — (Continued)

In June 2016, additional amendments were made to the Loan Agreement:

•

An increase in the capital expenditure limit for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2016 from $800,000 in the aggregate to $1,250,000 in the aggregate;

•

An increase in the capital expenditure limit for the fiscal year ending May 31, 2017 from $800,000 in the aggregate to $1,500,000 in the aggregate. In the absence of any subsequent amendment, the capital expenditure limit for subsequent fiscal years shall remain at $800,000 in the aggregate per fiscal year; and

•

A covenant specifying that a monthly net loss in fiscal 2017 not exceed $250,000 was increased to $500,000 for June 2016, $1,000,000 for July 2016, and $1,000,000 for December 2016. Such increases were effective only for the months identified. In the absence of any subsequent amendment, the maximum monthly net loss for all other months of fiscal year 2017 and thereafter remain at $250,000.

In November 2016 the Corporation did not meet a covenant requiring a monthly loss not to exceed $250,000. Subsequent to November 30, 2016, the Corporation received a waiver for the default that occurred in the second quarter. In addition, the Loan Agreement was modified to eliminate the monthly maximum Net Loss covenant effective with the fiscal month ended December 31, 2016.

In the third quarter of fiscal 2017, the Corporation did not meet a covenant requiring the year to date net loss not to exceed $1,750,000, and a covenant requiring net worth as of February 28, 2017 to not be below $23,383,000. Subsequent to February 28, 2017, the Corporation received a waiver for the default that occurred in the third quarter and paid to First Business Capital an accommodation fee of $50,000. The Corporation was in compliance with loan agreement covenants as of May 31, 2017.

On July 21, 2017, the Corporation terminated the Loan Agreement in connection with its entry into a new Credit Agreement with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. having terms more favorable to the Corporation. As of the date of termination, the Corporation did not have any borrowings outstanding under the Loan Agreement. In addition, the Corporation did not incur any early termination penalties in connection with the termination of the Loan Agreement. Information regarding the Credit Agreement with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. is noted in “Subsequent Events.”

Subsequent Events

On July 21, 2017, the Corporation (the “Loan Parties,” and Skyline Corporation and Skyline Homes, Inc., the “Borrowers” and each a “Borrower”) entered into a Credit Agreement (the “Agreement”) with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. (“Chase”) and other ancillary agreements and documents, including a Security Agreement and Patent and Trademark Security Agreement (collectively referred to along with the Agreement as the “Loan Documents”). Under the Agreement, Chase will provide a three-year revolving credit facility with loan advances to the Borrowers of up to a maximum of $10,000,000, subject to a borrowing base set forth in the Agreement (the “New Facility”). Loan advances bear interest at either 50 basis points above Chase’s floating prime rate (“CBFR”) or 150 basis points in excess of the LIBOR rate for the applicable period (the “Adjusted LIBO Rate”). Loans are secured by the Loan Parties’ assets, now owned or hereafter acquired, except for real property and any life insurance policies owned by any Borrower on the effective date of the Agreement. Interest is payable in arrears on a monthly basis in the case of the CBFR or at the end of the applicable interest rate in the case of the Adjusted LIBO Rate, and all principal and accrued but unpaid interest is due and payable at the maturity of the New Facility. Borrowers may at any time prepay in whole or in part any loan amounts, subject to minimum amounts and breakage costs.

Also under the Agreement, Chase agreed to issue letters of credit for the account of the Borrowers not to exceed $500,000. No advances have yet been made in connection with such letters of credit.

Item 7.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations — (Continued).

Subsequent Events — (Continued)

Facility: (i) a commitment fee payable in arrears at a rate of .25% per annum on the average daily amount of the available revolving commitment under the New Facility during the prior calendar month; and (ii) monthly letter of credit fees payable in arrears at the applicable Adjusted LIBO Rate on the outstanding amount of letters of credit issued and outstanding during the prior month.

The Loan Documents contain covenants that limit the ability of the Loan Parties to, among other things: (i) incur other indebtedness; (ii) create or incur liens on their assets; (iii) consummate asset sales, acquisitions, or mergers; (iv) pay dividends; (v) make certain investments; (vi) enter into certain transactions with affiliates; and (vii) amend a Loan Party’s articles of incorporation or bylaws.

The Agreement also requires compliance with a financial covenant involving a fixed charge coverage ratio as set forth in the Agreement.

If the Borrowers default in their obligations under the Agreement, then the unpaid balances will bear interest at 2.0% per annum in excess of the rate that would apply in the absence of a default. Other remedies available to Chase upon an event of default include the right to accelerate the maturity of all obligations, the right to foreclose on and otherwise repossess the collateral securing the obligations, and all other rights set forth in the Loan Documents.

The events of default under the Agreement include, but are not limited to, the following: (i) certain events of bankruptcy and insolvency; (ii) failure to make required payments; (iii) misrepresentations to Chase; (iv) failure to comply with certain covenants and agreements; (v) changes in control; and (vi) a material adverse change occurs.

Total Unit Shipments		4,439		100.0		3,914		100.0		525

Net sales increased approximately 11.7 percent. The increase was comprised of a 12.5 percent increase in manufactured housing net sales, an 8.7 percent decrease in modular housing net sales, and a 39.3 percent increase in park model net sales. Current year net manufactured housing sales includes approximately $10,969,000 attributable to the Elkhart, Indiana facility which commenced operations in June 2016. Modular net sales declined primarily due to decreased demand from Midwest-based dealers as manufactured housing products are able to satisfy demand from retail customers. Park model net sales rose as a result of Management’s initiative to increase this product’s exposure at substantially all of the Corporation’s facilities.

Item 7.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations — (Continued).

Net Sales and Unit Shipments — (Continued).

For fiscal 2017, the percentage increase or decrease in unit shipments from the comparable period last year are as follows:


	Skyline			Industry
Manufactured Housing		14.4	%	14.7%
Modular Housing		(13.1	%)	Not Available
Park Models		32.6	%	11.7%
Total		13.4	%	Not Available

Compared to the prior year, the average net sales price for manufactured housing decreased 1.6 percent primarily as a result of homes sold with less square footage and fewer amenities; partially offset by a price increase. The average sales price for modular housing and park models both increased 5.0 percent as a result of a price increase and product sold with greater square footage and additional amenities.

Cost of Sales


	2017		Percent of Net Sales		2016		Percent of Net Sales		Increase
	(Dollars in Thousands)
Cost of Sales	$	214,527		90.7	$	188,461		89.0	$	26,066

Cost of sales, in dollars, increased primarily as a result of increased net sales. Current year cost of sales includes approximately $12,420,000 attributable to the Elkhart, Indiana facility. As a percentage of net sales, cost of sales increased primarily due to higher manufacturing labor costs associated with hiring and training employees at facilities which are increasing production output.

Selling and Administrative Expenses


	2017		Percent of Net Sales		2016		Percent of Net Sales		Increase
	(Dollars in thousands)
Selling and administrative expenses	$	22,908		9.7	$	21,120		10.0	$	1,788

Selling and administrative expenses increased primarily as a result of $632,000 in costs associated with the Elkhart, Indiana facility and an increase in administrative salaries and wages. In addition, the Corporation benefited in prior year from a $250,000 final payment received in the second quarter on an account that had been previously reserved. As a percentage of net sales, selling and administrative expenses declined due to certain costs remaining relatively constant amid rising sales.

Net Gain on Sale of Property, Plant and Equipment

In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2017, the Corporation sold real property and substantially all of the equipment at its former facility located in Mansfield, Texas. The net sales price was $2,212,000, resulting in a gain of $1,502,000. The assets sold were security under the Corporation’s Secured Revolving Credit Facility with First Business Capital. First Business Capital released its lien on the real property subject to $1,100,000 of the net sales proceeds being held in a cash collateral account at First Business Bank, an affiliate of First Business Capital. The gain was offset by $222,000 in losses associated with the disposal of Mansfield equipment not sold, and the sale or disposal of equipment used by the Corporation’s former facility in Elkhart, Indiana.

Working capital	$	18,917	$	17,787	$	1,130

As noted in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for the year ended May 31, 2017, cash increased due to cash provided by operating activities of $2,868,000 and cash provided by investing activities of $857,000. Current assets, exclusive of cash, decreased primarily due to a $2,402,000 decreased in Accounts receivable and a $923,000 decrease in Workers’ compensation security deposit; offset by an $852,000 increase in Inventories.

Item 7.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations — (Continued).

Liquidity and Capital Resources — (Continued)

Accounts receivable decreased due to the timing of payments from customers at May 31, 2017 as compared to May 31, 2016. Workers’ compensation security deposit decreased to fund workers’ compensation claims for the current fiscal year. Raw material inventories increased due to anticipated production scheduled to occur in the first quarter of fiscal 2018. Work in process inventories increased due to increased production at May 31, 2017 as compared to May 31, 2016.

Current liabilities increased primarily as a result of a $359,000 increase in Customer deposits as the Corporation received deposits from a greater number of customers at May 31, 2017 as compared to May 31, 2016.

Capital expenditures totaled $1,355,000 for fiscal 2017 as compared to $1,132,000 for fiscal 2016. The increase is the result of building improvements, purchasing equipment for the Elkhart, Indiana facility, and replacing equipment that had reached its full economic useful life.

The Corporation was in compliance as of May 31, 2017 with loan agreement covenants associated with the Secured Revolving Credit Facility with First Business Capital Corp.

If necessary, the Corporation has the ability to borrow approximately $2,300,000 under the cash surrender value of certain life insurance policies. Management believes sufficient liquidity exists to meet financial obligation that will occur for at least one year after the date of the filing of this annual report.

Critical Accounting Policies

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires the Corporation to make certain estimates that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses and related disclosures. Estimates are periodically evaluated using historical experience and various other factors believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. The following accounting policies are considered to require a significant estimate:

Deferred Tax Assets

Net deferred tax assets and liabilities are computed based on the difference between the financial statement and income tax bases of assets and liabilities using the enacted tax rates.

The Corporation has a valuation allowance against substantially all of its deferred tax assets. In addition, net deferred tax assets consist of federal net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards, state net operating loss carryforwards and temporary differences between financial and tax reporting. Additional information regarding the decrease in the valuation allowance is referenced in Note 9 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

Revenue Recognition

Substantially all of the Corporation’s products are made to order. Revenue is recognized upon completion of the following: an order for a unit is received from a dealer or community (customer); written or verbal approval for payment is received from a customer’s financial institution or payment is received; a common carrier signs documentation accepting responsibility for the unit as agent for the customer; and the unit is removed from the Corporation’s premises for delivery to a customer. Freight billed to customers is considered sales revenue, and the related freight costs are cost of sales. Volume based rebates paid to dealers are classified as a reduction of sales revenue. Sales of parts are classified as revenue.

Item 7.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations — (Continued).

Product Warranties

As referenced in Note 1 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, homes and park models are sold with a fifteen-month warranty. Estimated warranty costs are accrued at the time of sale based upon sales, historical claims experience and management’s judgment regarding anticipated rates of warranty claims. Significant changes in these factors could have a material impact on future results of operations.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2016-02, Leases. ASU 2016-02 requires lessees to recognize the following for all leases (with the exception of short-term leases) at the commencement date:

•

A lease liability, which is a lessee’s obligation to make lease payments arising from a lease, measured on a discounted basis; and

•

A right-of-use asset, which is an asset that represents the lessee’s right to use, or control the use of, a specified asset for the lease term.

Public business entities should apply the amendments in ASU 2016-02 for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early application is permitted for all public business entities upon issuance.

Lessees may not apply a full retrospective transition approach. The Corporation anticipates implementing this pronouncement without a material effect on financial condition and results of operations.

In July 2015, FASB issued ASU No. 2015-11, Inventory, which requires an entity to measure inventory at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Net realizable value is the estimated selling prices in the ordinary course of business, less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal and transportation. Public business entities should apply ASU No. 2015-11 for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Corporation anticipates implementing this pronouncement without a material effect on financial condition and results of operations.

In March 2016, FASB issued ASU No. 2016-09, Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting. ASU 2016-09 simplifies the accounting for share-based payment transactions related to: the income tax consequences related to exercised or vested share-based payment awards; the classification of awards as either assets or liabilities; and the classification in the consolidated statements of cash flows. In addition, ASU 2016-09 provides an accounting policy election to account for forfeitures as they occur. For public entities, this update is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and for annual and interim periods thereafter. Early application is permitted. The Corporation has elected to continue its current policy of estimating forfeitures rather than recognizing forfeitures when they occur, and anticipates implementing this pronouncement without a material effect on financial condition and results of operations upon adoption on June 1, 2017.

Considerations, ASU 2016-10, Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing, ASU 2016-11, Rescission of SEC Guidance Because of Accounting Standards Updates 2014-09 and 2014-16 Pursuant to Staff Announcements at the March 3, 2016 EITF Meeting, and ASU 2016-12, Narrow-Scope Improvements and Practical Expedients. The Corporation is currently evaluating how the adoption of ASU 2014-09 will impact its financial position and result of operations.

In November 2015, FASB issued ASU No. 2015-17, Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes. ASU 2015-17 requires deferred tax liabilities and assets be classified as noncurrent in a classified statement of financial position. For public companies this update is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and for annual and interim periods thereafter. Early application is permitted as of the beginning of an interim or annual period. The Corporation adopted this pronouncement at the beginning of fiscal 2017 without a material effect on financial condition and results of operations.

Impact of Inflation

The consolidated financial statements included in this report reflect transactions in the dollar values in which they were incurred and, therefore, do not attempt to measure the impact of inflation. On a long-term basis, the Corporation has adjusted selling prices in reaction to changing costs due to inflation.

Forward Looking Information

The preceding Management’s Discussion and Analysis contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements are also made elsewhere in this report. The Corporation publishes other forward-looking statements from time to time.

Statements that are not historical in nature, including those containing words such as “anticipate,” “estimate,” “should,” “expect,” “believe,” “intend,” and similar expressions, are intended to identify forward-looking statements. We caution to be aware of the speculative nature of “forward-looking statements.” Although these statements reflect the Corporation’s good faith belief based on current expectations, estimates, and projections about (among other things) the industry and the markets in which the Corporation operates, they are not guarantees of future performance.

Whether actual results will conform to management’s expectations and predictions is subject to a number of known and unknown risks and uncertainties, including the following:

•

Consumer confidence and economic uncertainty;

•

Availability of wholesale and retail financing;

•

The health of the U.S. housing market as a whole;

•

Regulations pertaining to the housing and park model industries;

•

The cyclical nature of the manufactured housing and park model industries;

•

General or seasonal weather conditions affecting sales;

•

Potential impact of natural disasters on sales and raw material costs;

•

Potential periodic inventory adjustments by independent retailers;

•

Interest rate levels;

•

Impact of inflation;

•

Impact of labor costs;

•

Competitive pressures on pricing and promotional costs;

Item 7.

Forward Looking Information — (Continued)

•

Catastrophic events impacting insurance costs;

•

The availability of insurance coverage for various risks to the Corporation;

•

Market demographics; and

•

Management’s ability to attract and retain executive officers and key personnel.

Consequently, all of the Corporation’s forward-looking statements are qualified by these cautionary statements. The Corporation may not realize the results anticipated by management or, even if the Corporation substantially realizes the results management anticipates, the results may not have the consequences to, or effects on, the Corporation or its business or operations that management expects. Such differences may be material. Except as required by applicable laws, the Corporation does not intend to publish updates or revisions of any forward-looking statements management makes to reflect new information, future events or otherwise.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Shareholders and Board of Directors of Skyline Corporation

Elkhart, Indiana

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Skyline Corporation and subsidiary companies (the “Corporation”) as of May 31, 2017 and 2016, and the related consolidated statements of income, shareholders’ equity, and cash flows for the years then ended. We also have audited the Corporation’s internal control over financial reporting as of May 31, 2017, based on criteria established in the 2013 Internal Control – Integrated Framework issued by the Committee on Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). The Corporation’s management is responsible for these consolidated financial statements, for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting, and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying “Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting”. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements and an opinion on the Corporation’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement and whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audits of the consolidated financial statements included examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. Our audit of internal control over financial reporting included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audits also included performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinions.

A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. The following material weakness has been identified and included in management’s report. The Corporation’s internal controls over the accuracy and valuation of raw materials inventories did not operate with sufficient precision to prevent or detect the potential occurrence of a material misstatement in compiling the raw material inventory listing from the physical inventory counts or in the valuation of raw materials at cost under the first-in, first-out method. This material weakness was considered in determining the nature, timing, and extent of audit tests applied in our audit of the 2017 consolidated financial statements, and our opinion regarding the effectiveness of the Corporation’s internal control over financial reporting does not affect our opinion on those consolidated financial statements.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Corporation as of May 31, 2017 and 2016, and the results of its operations and its

cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Also in our opinion, because of the material weakness described above, the Corporation has not maintained effective internal control over financial reporting as of May 31, 2017, based on criteria established in the 2013 Internal Control – Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO).

Skyline Corporation and Subsidiary Companies

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

NOTE 1

Nature of Operations, Accounting Policies of Consolidated Financial Statements

Nature of operations — Skyline Corporation’s core ongoing business activities consists of designing, producing and marketing manufactured housing, modular housing and park models to independent dealers and manufactured housing communities throughout the United States and Canada. Manufactured housing represents homes built according to a national code, modular housing represents homes built to a local code, and park models are built to specifications established by the American National Standards Institute. These dealers and communities often utilize floor plan financing arrangements with lending institutions. The Corporation’s net sales are predominately from its housing products.

Note 2 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statement describes the recreational vehicle segment that was sold in fiscal 2015. Accordingly, the accompanying financial statements (including footnote disclosures unless otherwise indicated) reflect these operations as discontinued operations apart from the Corporation’s continuing housing operations.

The following is a summary of the accounting policies that have a significant effect on the consolidated financial statements.

Basis of presentation — The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Skyline Corporation and its wholly-owned subsidiaries of Skyline Homes, Inc., Homette Corporation and Layton Homes Corp. (the “Corporation”). All intercompany transactions have been eliminated. Certain prior amounts related to deferred tax assets have been reclassified to conform to current period presentation.

Accounting Estimates — The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions. These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Key estimates would include accruals for warranty and marketing programs as well as valuations for long-lived assets and deferred tax assets.

Revenue recognition — Substantially all of the Corporation’s products are made to order. Revenue is recognized upon completion of the following: an order for a unit is received from a dealer or community (customer); written or verbal approval for payment is received from a customer’s financial institution or payment is received; a common carrier signs documentation accepting responsibility for the unit as agent for the customer; and the unit is removed from the Corporation’s premises for delivery to a customer. Freight billed to customers is considered sales revenue, and the related freight costs are cost of sales. Volume based rebates paid to dealers are classified as a reduction of sales revenue. Sales of parts are classified as revenue.

Accounts Receivable — Trade receivables are based on the amounts billed to dealers and communities. The Corporation does not accrue interest on any of its trade receivables, nor does it have an allowance for credit losses due to favorable collections experience. If a loss occurs, the Corporation’s policy is to recognize it in the period when collectability cannot be reasonably assured. Deposits from customers are classified as current liabilities.

Inventories — Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Cost is determined under the first-in, first-out method. Physical inventory counts are taken at the end of each reporting quarter.

Workers’ Compensation Security Deposit — Workers’ compensation security deposit represents funds placed with the Corporation’s worker’s compensation insurance carrier to offset future medical net claims and benefits.

Property, Plant and Equipment — Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation is computed over the estimated useful lives of the assets using the straight-line method for financial statement

Property, Plant and Equipment — (Continued)

reporting and accelerated methods for income tax reporting purposes. Estimated useful lives for significant classes of property, plant and equipment are as follows: Building and improvements 10 to 30 years; machinery and equipment 5 to 8 years.

Long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable from projected future cash flows. If the carrying value of a long-lived asset is impaired, an impairment charge is recorded for the amount by which the carrying value of the long-lived asset exceeds its fair value. The Company believes no impairment of long-lived assets exists at May 31, 2017.

Warranty — The Corporation provides the retail purchaser of its homes and park models with a full fifteen-month warranty against defects in design, materials and workmanship. The warranties are backed by service departments located at the Corporation’s manufacturing facilities and an extensive field service system.

Estimated warranty costs are accrued at the time of sale based upon current sales, historical experience and management’s judgment regarding anticipated rates of warranty claims. The adequacy of the recorded warranty liability is periodically assessed and the amount is adjusted as necessary.

Income Taxes — The Corporation recognizes deferred tax assets based on differences between the carrying values of assets for financial and tax reporting purposes. The realization of the deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of sufficient future taxable income.

Generally accepted accounting principles require that an entity consider both negative and positive evidence in determining whether a valuation allowance is warranted. In comparing negative and positive evidence, losses in fiscal years 2008 to 2015 is considered significant, negative, objective evidence that deferred tax assets may not be realized in the future, and generally is assigned more weight than subjective positive evidence of the realizability of deferred tax assets. As a result of its extensive evaluation of both positive and negative evidence, management maintains a valuation allowance against substantially all of its deferred tax assets. The Corporation reports a liability, if any, for unrecognized tax benefits resulting from uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. The Corporation recognizes interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits in income tax expense.

Earnings per Share — Basic earnings per common share is computed based on the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the reporting period. Diluted earnings per share is computed based on the combination of dilutive common share equivalents, comprised of shares issuable under the Corporation’s Stock Incentive Plan and the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the reporting period.

Dilutive common share equivalents include the dilutive effect of in-the-money options to purchase shares, which is calculated based on the average share price for each period using the treasury stock method, as well as restricted stock awards. 225,000 of 274,000 stock options granted under the 2015 Stock Incentive Plan had a dilutive effect on earnings per share for the year ended May 31, 2017.

Consolidated statements of cash flows — The Corporation’s cash flows were not affected by income taxes in fiscal 2017 and 2016. Cash flows were affected by interest paid of approximately $241,000 in fiscal 2017. Cash flows were affected by interest paid of approximately $237,000 in fiscal 2016.

Recently issued accounting pronouncements — In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board, (FASB), issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2016-02, Leases. ASU 2016-02 requires lessees to recognize the following for all leases (with the exception of short-term leases) at the commencement date:

•

A lease liability, which is a lessee’s obligation to make lease payments arising from a lease, measured on a discounted basis; and

Skyline Corporation and Subsidiary Companies

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements — (Continued)

NOTE 1.

Nature of Operations, Accounting Policies of Consolidated Financial Statements — (Continued)

Recently issued accounting pronouncements — (continued)

•

A right-of-use asset, which is an asset that represents the lessee’s right to use, or control the use of, a specified asset for the lease term.

Lessees must apply a modified retrospective transition approach for leases existing at, or entered into after, the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements. The modified retrospective approach would not require any transition accounting for leases that expired before the earliest comparative period presented. Lessees may not apply a full retrospective transition approach. The Corporation anticipates implementing this pronouncement without a material effect on financial condition and results of operations.

In May 2014, FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 66). The core principal of ASU 2014-09 is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. For a public entity, this guidance is effective for annual reporting periods after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within that reporting period. Early application is permitted. Subsequent to the issuance of ASU No. 2014-09, FASB issued ASU No. 2015-14, which deferred the effective date of ASU 2014-09 by one year. In addition, FASB subsequently issued ASU 2016-08, Principal versus Agent Considerations, ASU 2016-10, Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing, ASU 2016-11, Rescission of SEC Guidance Because of Accounting Standards Updates 2014-09 and 2014-16 Pursuant to Staff Announcements at the March 3, 2016 EITF Meeting, and ASU 2016-12, Narrow-Scope Improvements and Practical Expedients. The Corporation is currently evaluating how the adoption of ASU 2014-09 will impact its financial position and result of operations.

2016, and for annual and interim periods thereafter. Early application is permitted as of the beginning of an interim or annual period. The Corporation adopted this pronouncement at the beginning of fiscal 2017 without a material effect on financial condition and results of operations.

At May 31, 2017, the Corporation had gross federal net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $94 million and gross state net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $103 million. The federal net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards have a life expectancy of between eleven and eighteen years. The state net operating loss carryforwards have a life expectancy, depending on the state where a loss was incurred, between one and twenty years.

The Corporation has recorded a full valuation allowance against this asset, aside from $52,000 associated with an alternative minimum tax credit recognized primarily in fiscal year 2017. If the Corporation, after considering future negative and positive evidence regarding the realization of deferred tax assets, determines that a lesser valuation allowance is warranted, it would record a reduction to income tax expense and the valuation allowance in the period of determination. For fiscal 2017, the Corporation reported the utilization of previously fully-reserved federal net operating loss carryforwards of $166,000 and state operating loss carryforwards of $47,000 and released corresponding amounts of the valuation allowance to offset federal and state income tax expense.

Income tax returns are filed in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and in several state jurisdictions. For the majority of taxing jurisdictions the Corporation is no longer subject to examination by taxing authorities for years before 2013. The Corporation did not incur any interest or penalties related to income tax matters in fiscal years 2017 and 2016.

The Corporation has no unrecognized tax benefits in its financial statements during fiscal years 2017 and 2016, and does not expect any significant changes related to unrecognized tax benefits in the twelve months following May 31, 2017.

NOTE 10

Commitments and Contingencies

The Corporation was contingently liable at May 31, 2017 and 2016, under repurchase agreements with certain financial institutions providing inventory financing for dealers of its products. Under these arrangements,

NOTE 10

Commitments and Contingencies — (Continued)

which are customary in the manufactured housing and park model industries, the Corporation agrees to repurchase units in the event of default by the dealer at declining prices over the term of the agreement. The period to potentially repurchase units is between 12 to 24 months.

The maximum repurchase liability is the total amount that would be paid upon the default of the Corporation’s independent dealers.

The maximum potential repurchase liability for continuing and discontinued operations, without reduction for the resale value of the repurchased units, was approximately $30 million at May 31, 2017 and approximately $25 million at May 31, 2016. As a result of favorable experience regarding repurchased units, which is largely due to the strength of dealers selling the Corporation’s products, the Corporation maintained at May 31, 2017 and May 31, 2016, a $100,000 loss reserve that is a component of other accrued liabilities. The risk of loss under these agreements is spread over many dealers and financial institutions. The loss, if any, under these agreements is the difference between the repurchase cost and the resale value of the units. The Corporation estimates the fair value of this commitment considering both the contingent losses and the value of the guarantee. This amount has historically been insignificant. The Corporation believes that any potential loss under the agreements in effect at May 31, 2017 will not be material to its financial position or results of operations.

The amounts of obligations from repurchased units, all of which were from discontinued operations, and incurred net losses for the periods presented are as follows:


	Year Ended
	May 31,
	2017		2016
	(Dollars in thousands)
Number of units repurchased		—		6
Obligations from units repurchased	$	—	$	115
Net losses on repurchased units	$	—	$	50

The Corporation utilizes a combination of insurance coverage and self-insurance for certain items, including workers’ compensation and group health benefits. Liabilities for workers’ compensation are recognized for estimated future medical costs and indemnity costs. Liabilities for group health benefits are recognized for claims incurred but not paid. Insurance reserves are estimated based upon a combination of historical data and actuarial information. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

NOTE 11

Secured Revolving Credit Facility

On March 20, 2015, the Corporation (“Borrower(s)”) entered into a Loan and Security Agreement (the “Loan Agreement”) with First Business Capital Corp. (“First Business Capital”). Under the Loan Agreement, First Business Capital will provide a secured revolving credit facility to the Borrowers for a term of three years, renewable on an annual basis thereafter with each renewal for a successive one-year term. The Corporation may obtain loan advances up to a maximum of $10,000,000 subject to certain collateral-obligation ratios. In addition, loan advances bear interest at 3.75% in excess of The Wall Street Journal’s published one-year LIBOR rate, and are secured by substantially all of the Borrowers’ assets, now owned or hereafter acquired. Interest is payable monthly, in arrears, and all principal and accrued but unpaid interest is due and payable upon termination of the

Loan Agreement. First Business Capital also agreed under the Loan Agreement to issue, or cause to be issued by a bank affiliate or other bank, letters of credit for the account of the Corporation. However, no advances have yet been made in connection with such letters of credit.

•

The limit for the lease, purchase or acquisition of any asset increased from $600,000 per year to $800,000 per year; and

•

The monthly bank assessment fee increased from .25% per annum to .35% per annum.

In June 2016, additional amendments were made to the Loan Agreement:

•

An increase in the capital expenditure limit for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2016 from $800,000 in the aggregate to $1,250,000 in the aggregate;

•

In November 2016, the Corporation did not meet a covenant requiring a monthly loss not to exceed $250,000. Subsequent to November 30, 2016, the Corporation received a waiver for the default that occurred in the second quarter. In addition, the Loan Agreement was modified to eliminate the monthly maximum Net Loss covenant effective with the fiscal month ended December 31, 2016.

Stock-Based Compensation

In the first quarter of fiscal 2016, the Corporation’s Board of Directors approved the 2015 Stock Incentive Plan (“Plan”), which allows the granting of stock options and other equity awards to directors, officers, employees, and eligible independent contractors of the Corporation and is intended to retain and reward key employees’ performance and efforts as they relate to the Corporation’s long-term objectives and strategic plan. The Plan was subsequently approved by shareholders at the Corporation’s annual shareholder meeting on September 21, 2015. A total of 700,000 shares of Common Stock have been reserved for issuance under the Plan. Stock option awards are granted with an exercise price equal to the market price of the Corporation’s stock at the date of grant and vest over a period of time as determined by the Corporation at the date of grant up to the contractual ten-year life at which time the options expire. Restricted stock awards are priced no less than 100 percent of market price of the Corporation’s stock at the date of grant, and the awards made to date fully vest after five years.

Stock Options – The following tables summarize option activity for the years ended May 31, 2017 and 2016:


	Number of Shares		Weighted Average Exercise Price		Weighted Average Remaining Contractual Term (years)		Aggregate Intrinsic Value (in thousands)
Options outstanding at June 1, 2015		—	$	—
Granted		225,000		3.28

Options outstanding at May 31, 2016		225,000	$	3.28		9.14	$	1,584

Granted		49,000		11.75

Options outstanding at May 31, 2017		274,000	$	4.79		8.40	$	128

Vested and exercisable options at May 31, 2017		45,000	$	3.28		8.14	$	89

The weighted average grant-date fair value of options granted during fiscal 2017 and 2016 were $7.58 and $2.19, respectively.


	Number of Shares			Weighted Average Grant-Date Fair Value
Non-vested options at May 31, 2015		—		$	—
Granted		225,000			2.19
Vested		—			—

Non-vested options at May 31, 2016		225,000		$	2.19
Granted		49,000			7.58
Vested		(45,000	)		2.19

Non-vested options at May 31, 2017		229,000		$	3.34

Stock-based compensation expense for fiscal 2017 and 2016 was approximately $144,000 and $82,000, respectively. Total unrecognized compensation expense related to stock options outstanding at May 31, 2017 was approximately $637,000 and is to be recorded over a weighted-average life of 3.4 years.

The Corporation records all stock-based payments, including grants of stock options, in the consolidated statements of operations based on their fair values at the date of grant. The Corporation currently uses the

Skyline Corporation and Subsidiary Companies

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements — (Continued)

NOTE 12

Stock Based Compensation — (Continued)

Black-Scholes option pricing model to determine the fair value of stock options. The determination of the fair value of stock options on the date of grant using an option-pricing model is affected by stock price as well as assumptions that include expected stock price volatility over the term of the awards, expected life of the awards, risk-free interest rate, and expected dividends.

The fair value of the options granted during fiscal 2017 and 2016 were estimated at the date of grant using the following weighted average assumptions:


	2017			2016
Volatility		64.3	%		55.8	%
Risk-free interest rate		2.14	%		2.22	%
Expected option life in years		7.50			9.72
Dividend yield		0	%		0	%

Volatility is estimated based on historical volatility measured monthly for a time period equal to the expected life of the option ending on the date of grant. The risk-free interest rate is determined based on observed U.S. Treasury yields in effect at the time of the grant for maturities equivalent to the expected life of the options. The expected option life (estimated average period of time the options will be outstanding) is estimated based on the expected exercise date of the options. The expected dividend yield of zero is estimated based on the dividend yield at the time of grant as adjusted for any expected changes during the life of the options.

Restricted Stock – In the third quarter of fiscal 2017, the Corporation issued 15,000 shares of restricted stock valued at approximately $216,000. No restricted stock was vested at May 31, 2017, and the non-vested shares had a weighted average grant date fair value of $14.40 per share. The value was determined using the market price of the Corporation’s common stock at the date of grant. The restricted stock’s value is to be expensed over a five-year vesting period using a straight-line method. Compensation expense for fiscal 2017 was approximately $17,000, and unrecognized compensation expense at May 31, 2017 was approximately $199,000.

NOTE 13

Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per common share is computed based on the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the reporting period. Diluted earnings per common share is computed based on the combination of dilutive common share equivalents, comprised of shares issuable under the Corporation’s Stock Incentive Plan and the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the reporting period.

NOTE 14

Restructuring Activities

In the third and fourth quarters of fiscal 2017, the Corporation entered into a restructuring plan involving the suspension of operations at the Elkhart, Indiana and Mansfield, Texas facilities. The restructuring does not represent a strategic shift in operations due to an expectation to have a portion of customers of these two facilities serviced by manufacturing facilities located in Arkansas City, Kansas and Sugarcreek, Ohio.

The suspension of operations in Mansfield was due to the plant being unable to profitably operate since it was converted from producing recreational vehicles to manufactured housing in fiscal 2014. The suspension in Elkhart was due to the plant being unable to profitably operate since it opened in June 2016. There were neither one-time termination agreements nor material costs related to the termination of contracts such as leases related to the restructuring. Inventory and fixed asset sale and disposal losses related to the restructuring totaled $170,000 and $222,000, respectively. The Corporation does not have a liability related to the restructuring as of May 31, 2017. As referenced in Note 4, Net Gain on Sale of Property, Plant and Equipment, to Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, the Mansfield facility was sold in the fourth quarter.

NOTE 15

Treasury Stock

The Corporation’s Board of directors from time to time has authorized the repurchase of shares of the Corporation’s common stock, in the open market or through negotiated transactions, at such times and at such prices as management may decide. In fiscal 2017 and 2016, the Corporation did not acquire any shares of its common stock.

NOTE 16

401(K) Plan

The Corporation has an employee savings plan (the “401(k) Plan”) that is intended to provide participating employees with an additional method of saving for retirement. The 401(k) Plan covers all employees who meet certain minimum participation requirements. The Corporation does not provide a matching contribution to the 401(k) Plan, but can make discretionary profit sharing contributions. No profit sharing contributions were made in fiscal 2017 and 2016.

NOTE 17

Retirement and Death Benefit Plans

The Corporation has entered into various arrangements with certain employees or former employees for benefits to be paid in the following manner:

•

to an employee’s estate in the event of death

•

an employee in the event of retirement or disability to be paid over 10 years beginning at the date of retirement or disability

•

in the event of death, the employee’s beneficiary will receive the balance due the employee

The Corporation also purchased life insurance contracts on the covered employees or former employees. The present value of the principal cost of such arrangements is being accrued over the period from the date of such arrangements to full eligibility using a discount rate of 4.0 percent in fiscal 2017 and fiscal 2016. The current and non-current amounts accrued for such arrangements totaled $5,122,000 and $5,340,000 at May 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively. In fiscal 2017 the amount credited to operations under these arrangements was approximately $17,000. In fiscal 2016 the amount charged to operations under these arrangements was approximately $10,000.

NOTE 18

Subsequent Events

Also under the Agreement, Chase agreed to issue letters of credit for the account of the Borrowers not to exceed $500,000. No advances have yet been made in connection with such letters of credit.

As part of the closing of the financing, the Company paid Chase a closing fee of $25,000 plus legal and due diligence costs. The Loan Parties also agreed to pay the following fees to Chase during the term of the New Facility: (i) a commitment fee payable in arrears at a rate of .25% per annum on the average daily amount of the available revolving commitment under the New Facility during the prior calendar month; and (ii) monthly letter of credit fees payable in arrears at the applicable Adjusted LIBO Rate on the outstanding amount of letters of credit issued and outstanding during the prior month.

The Agreement also requires compliance with a financial covenant involving a fixed charge coverage ratio as set forth in the Agreement.

Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As of May 31, 2017, the Corporation conducted an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of management including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Corporation’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”)). Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Corporation’s internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of May 31, 2017, due to the material weakness described below in Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting.

Management’s Report of Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Management of the Corporation is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act. Internal control over financial reporting provides reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States.

The Corporation’s internal control over financial reporting includes policies and procedures that: (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the Corporation’s assets; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that the Corporation’s receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the Corporation’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Management of the Corporation has assessed the effectiveness of the Corporation’s internal control over financial reporting based on criteria established in the 2013 Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission.

Management’s assessment included an evaluation of the design of the Corporation’s internal control over financial reporting, and testing of the operational effectiveness of the Corporation’s internal control over financing reporting. Based on this assessment, management identified a material weakness in the Corporation’s internal control over financial reporting as of May 31, 2017 as it relates to the accuracy and valuation of raw

Item 9A.

Controls and Procedures — (Continued)

Management’s Report of Internal Control Over Financial Reporting — (Continued)

materials and inventories. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

The following material weakness has been identified and included in management’s assessment. The Corporation’s internal controls over the accuracy and valuation of raw materials inventories did not operate with sufficient precision to prevent or detect a the potential occurrence of material misstatement in compiling the raw material inventory listing from the physical inventory counts or in the valuation of raw materials at cost under the first-in, first-out method.

The Corporation’s internal control over financial reporting as of May 31, 2017 has been audited by Crowe Horwath LLP, an independent registered accounting firm, as stated in their report, which appears herein.

In order to remediate the material weakness described above, the Corporation is currently evaluating improvements in internal controls over the accuracy and valuation of raw materials inventory and will implement those improvements as soon as practicable in fiscal 2018.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

As of May 31, 2017, management, with the participation of the Corporation’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated internal control over financial reporting. Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that no changes in internal control over financial reporting occurred during the quarter ended May 31, 2017 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to affect materially, internal control over financial reporting, except as noted above with respect to the accuracy and valuation of raw materials inventory.

Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer Certifications

The Corporation’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission the certifications required by Section 302 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 as Exhibits 31.1 and 31.2 to the Corporation’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2017. In addition, on September 26, 2016, the Corporation’s Chief Executive Officer certified to NYSE American that he was not aware of any violation by the Corporation of the NYSE American corporate governance listing standards as in effect on September 19, 2016. The foregoing certification was unqualified.
