Manufactured housing HUD-code industry shipments measure industrywide shipments of homes built to the federal manufactured-housing construction standard.

Champion Homes cited Manufactured Housing Institute data showing 26,363 HUD-code industry home shipments during the three months ended May 31, 2026, down from 27,676 a year earlier.

Industry shipments provide a demand denominator

A manufacturer's own unit growth can reflect market demand, market-share movement, acquisitions, and production constraints. Industry shipments add the market-level volume context needed to separate those effects.

Champion's current filing reports stronger company share even while industry shipments declined.

The reporting window lags company results

HUD-code industry shipments are reported on a one-month lag, so Champion compares the three months ended May 31 with a company quarter ending June 27.

Use the series with wholesale market share and HUD-code sales mix while preserving that timing difference.
