Samuel A. Landy, President and Chief Executive Officer, commented, “Our communities in Florida, Alabama, South Carolina and Georgia experienced high winds and heavy rain which resulted in minor damage to these communities. Additionally, several of our communities in Tennessee and Ohio had trees down and other minor damage. The limited damage to our homes and our communities demonstrates the quality and durability of our homes. Most importantly, all of our residents and employees are safe. We are taking appropriate measures to clean up and repair any marginal damages sustained at our communities. We do not expect the effects of the storm to have a material impact on our operations or financial results. While our damage was minimal, others were not as fortunate. We stand ready to provide support as requested by the local, state and federal government.”
