Item 8.01 Other Events.

SEC Investigation Update Cavco Industries, Inc. (Cavco, or the Company) is providing an update on its involvement in the ongoing Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) investigation being conducted by the staff of the SEC's Los Angeles Regional Office involving trading in the securities of other public companies directed by the Company's former Chief Executive Officer, Joseph Stegmayer, which the Company first disclosed in November 2018. Since that time, the Company has disclosed, among other things, its ongoing cooperation with the SEC staff, the departure of Mr. Stegmayer and the completion of an independent investigation of the Audit Committee of the Company's Board of Directors, whose results were shared in early 2019 with the SEC staff, the Company's listing exchange and its auditors. On September 25, 2020, the Company also disclosed that it had begun settlement negotiations with the SEC staff in connection with this matter, though not pursuant to any formal recommendation.

On November 20, 2020, the SEC staff issued a Wells Notice to the Company in connection with its investigation, noting its preliminary intent to recommend a related enforcement action against the Company. A Wells Notice is not a formal complaint or adjudication, or a finding by the SEC of any wrongdoing by the Company. The Company's discussions with the SEC staff on a possible settlement are ongoing, and it remains hopeful that an agreeable resolution can be reached in the coming months.
