The conventional building backdrop remains difficult. The average 30-year fixed mortgage rate reached 6.95% as of
That combination of elevated financing costs and slowing site-built completions is part of the case factory-built producers make for their model: shorter build times and more predictable costs produced indoors. In our view, the newer public entrants in the space face a second build-out as well, beyond the factory floor. Boards, audit committees and finance teams have to be assembled to meet the reporting standards that come with an exchange listing.

“BOXABL is tackling one of the country's most pressing challenges, the shortage of affordable housing, with a genuinely innovative manufacturing model. Having spent nearly 21 years in public accounting, I understand how important strong financial controls and governance are for a company at this stage of growth, especially one that has recently gone public. I'm looking forward to working with the board and management team to help build that foundation as BOXABL scales,” said Goldsmith.
There are several risks associated with the Company's plans. BOXABL is a newly public company, and adding directors and finance executives does not by itself ensure effective internal controls or timely and accurate financial reporting. Its growth strategy depends on scaling a new manufacturing model, obtaining regulatory approvals state by state, and continued access to capital, and its stackable and connectable models remain in development. Housing demand is sensitive to mortgage rates and affordability, and the shares of recently listed companies can be volatile. Readers should review BOXABL's filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission at www.sec.gov and the forward-looking statements in the Company's release, available through its investor page.

In other industry developments and happenings in the market this week include:
Champion Homes, Inc. (NYSE: SKY) is one of North America's largest factory-built housing producers, offering manufactured and modular homes, accessory dwelling units, park models and modular buildings for the single-family and multi-family markets. The company, which kept the SKY ticker through its August 2024 rename from Skyline Champion Corporation, recently announced that its Board of Directors appointed Michael Haack as a new independent director, effective August 24, 2026.
Champion Homes builds under a family of brands that includes Champion Homes, Skyline Homes, Genesis Homes, Titan Homes and ScotBilt Homes in the U.S., and Moduline and SRI Homes in western Canada. The company also operates factory-direct retail and provides construction and transportation services for factory-built homes.
Cavco Industries, Inc. (NASDAQ: CVCO) designs and produces factory-built housing distributed through independent and company-owned retailers, and recently reported fiscal 2027 first quarter results. Net revenue was $610 million, up 9.5% from $557 million a year earlier, on home sales volume up 4.4% with capacity utilization steady at approximately 75%. Backlogs totaled $298 million at quarter end, representing seven to nine weeks of production, compared to $195 million at the end of the prior year. Net income per diluted share was $5.43, compared to $6.42 in the prior-year quarter.
“In Q1, we saw record shipments and grew our backlog by over 50%,” said President and CEO Bill Boor, who also pointed to progress on the regulatory front with the passing of the bipartisan 21st Century ROAD to Housing Act. The company repurchased approximately $30 million of stock in the quarter, with $188 million remaining under its board authorizations.
D.R. Horton, Inc. (NYSE: DHI) is the largest U.S. homebuilder by volume, with operations in 126 markets across 36 states spanning homebuilding, rental, Forestar and financial services. The company recently announced it will release financial results for its fourth quarter and fiscal year ended September 30, 2026 on October 29, 2026.
Berkshire Hathaway disclosed a new position in D.R. Horton in its second quarter 2026 holdings report, part of a broader move into U.S. housing that also included completing its acquisition of Taylor Morrison in July. Berkshire already owns Clayton Homes, one of the country's largest factory-built home producers.
Lennar Corporation (NYSE: LEN) is one of the nation's largest homebuilders and recently reported fiscal 2026 third quarter results showing the pressure of the current rate environment. New orders declined 9% to 20,879 homes, gross margin on home sales fell to 15.8% from 17.5%, and the company lowered its full-year delivery outlook to 80,000 to 81,000 homes from 82,000 to 83,000.
On the company's earnings call, Executive Chairman and CEO Stuart Miller said fewer families can afford to both produce a down payment and qualify for a mortgage. Days after the report, Berkshire Hathaway disclosed purchases of approximately 2.74 million Lennar shares between September 17 and September 21, 2026, lifting its holding to just over 10% of the company according to a securities filing.
