Skyline Champion Announces Asset Purchase of Manis Custom Builders

Champion Home Builders, a subsidiary of Skyline Champion Corporation (NYSE:SKY) (“Skyline Champion”), today announced it expects to close by the end of May on the acquisition of substantially all of the operating assets of Manis Custom Builders, Inc. and related companies (collectively, “Manis”), located in Laurinburg, NC, for approximately $10 million.

“We look forward to welcoming the Manis employees to the Skyline Champion family,” said Mark Yost, Skyline Champion’s President and Chief Executive Officer. “While working with founder Joe Manis and his team during this transaction, we learned that their core operating principles mirror our own. Mr. Manis has been a leader in the industry since 1983 and we are fortunate to benefit from the high quality which Manis is known for.”

Mr. Yost continued, “With the addition of this 250,000 square foot campus in Laurinburg and Manis’ retail location in eastern North Carolina to our existing North Carolina campuses, we are now better able to serve customers throughout the region with cost effective, streamlined product offerings that are greatly needed in the current economic environment. We anticipate continuing to build out the approximately $15 million of backlog as we upgrade and re-tool portions of the plant.”
