Kenneth E. Shipley, Chief Executive Officer, stated: "Legacy delivered a solid first quarter, growing net income and diluted earnings per share year-over-year despite a modest decline in revenue and continued macro headwinds. Our retail and direct sales channels showed real strength, our loan portfolios continue to perform well, and we ended the quarter with $14.1 million in cash and an essentially undrawn revolver. The large workforce housing order received during the quarter underscores the opportunity we see in that market, and we look forward to delivering on that order in the coming quarters. We remain confident in the long-term demand for affordable manufactured housing and in Legacy's ability to serve that need."
