Previous wording
The primary focus of our business is the operation of our manufactured home communities – leasing of manufactured homesites and manufactured homes in our communities. The sale of homes is integrated with our leasing of these manufactured homes and homesites. Management views the Company’s business as a single segment based on its method of internal reporting in addition to its allocation of capital and resources. Capital and resources are allocated to further the goal of maintaining and increasing occupancy and net operating income in our communities. Our chief executive officer, with the assistance of our chief operating officer, is the principal decision-maker regarding allocation of resources. These decisions are based on the occupancy of the communities and community net operating income. Sales of homes are necessary to maintain and increase occupancy at our communities. We primarily purchase homes to fill vacant sites in the communities. These homes are either rented or sold, based on the needs of the potential residents. Although certain components of the sales operation are tracked (sales, cost of sales, etc.), separate discrete financial information for the entire sales operation is not available. Most of the personnel costs, office expenses, maintenance and other expenses are borne by the community and cannot be allocated. The components of the sales operation play no material role in decisions about resources to be allocated. Resources are allocated to maintaining and increasing occupancy and net operating income in our communities.

The Company intends to continue to increase its real estate investments and investments in expansions. Our business plan includes acquiring communities that over time are expected to yield in excess of our cost of funds and then investing in physical improvements, including adding rental homes onto otherwise vacant sites. This has resulted in increased occupancy rates and improved operating results. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, rental and related income increased 11% and 10%, respectively from the prior year periods and Community Net Operating Income (“NOI”), as defined below, increased 11% and 10%, respectively. Same property NOI, which includes communities owned and operated as of January 1, 2024 (excluding Memphis Blues, Duck River Estates and River Bluff Estates), increased 12% and 10% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively, over the prior year period driven by a 110 basis point increase in occupancy, to 88.5%, and rental rate increase of 5.2%. We have been positioning ourselves for future growth and will continue to seek opportunistic investments. In addition, on behalf of our joint venture arrangements with Nuveen Real Estate, we will seek opportunities to acquire manufactured home communities that are under development and/or newly developed and meet certain other investment guidelines. We will also seek additional opportunities, through our opportunity zone fund, to acquire communities that require substantial capital investment and are located in qualified opportunity zones.

The macro-economic environment and current housing fundamentals continue to favor home rentals. Although 30-year fixed rate mortgage rates have declined to one-year lows, they are still above 6%. Housing inventory has improved but affordability remains a challenge for many prospective buyers, especially lower and middle-income households. We believe rental homes in a manufactured home community allow the resident to obtain the efficiencies of factory-built housing and the amenities of community living for less than the cost of other forms of affordable housing. We continue to see strong demand for rental homes. We have added an additional 433 rental homes during the first nine months of 2025, net of rental home sales. This brought the total number of rental homes to approximately 10,800 rental homes, or 40.8% of total sites. Occupied rental homes represented approximately 43.4% of total occupied sites at quarter end. Occupancy in rental homes continues to be strong and was at 94.1% as of September 30, 2025. Our manufactured home communities compare favorably with other types of rental housing, including apartments, and we will continue to allocate capital to rental home purchases, as demand dictates.

Community operating expenses increased 11% from $22.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024 to $25.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025. Community operating expenses increased 9% from $65.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 to $71.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025. These increases were due to acquisitions and an increase in payroll costs, real estate taxes, snow removal and water and sewer costs. This increase also includes one-time legal and professional fees of $660,000 for both the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025.
Current wording
Community operating expenses increased 10% from $23.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 to $25.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026.

Community NOI increased 10% from $88.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 to $97.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025.

Many recently acquired communities have deferred maintenance requiring higher than normal expenditures in the first few years of ownership. Since most of the community expenses consist of fixed costs, as occupancy rates increase, these expense ratios are expected to continue to improve. Due to the Company’s ability to increase its rental rates annually (subject to limitations on rent increases in certain jurisdictions), increasing costs due to inflation and changing prices have generally not had a material effect on revenue and income from continuing operations.
