               NOTES TO INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.   BASIS OF PRESENTATION:

     The accompanying interim consolidated financial statements have not been
audited but reflect normal recurring adjustments which, in the opinion of
management, are necessary for a fair presentation of the Company's financial
position and results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods
presented. The year-end condensed balance sheet data was derived from audited
financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by generally
accepted accounting principles. These interim financial statements should be
read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and the
notes therein for the fiscal year ended December 31, 1997 included in the
Company's Form S-4 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 7,
1998. The results of operations for any interim period are not necessarily
indicative of results for the full year or for any quarter.

2.   ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS:

     Airxcel, Inc. (the "Company") is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Airxcel
Holdings Corporation, formerly known as RV Holdings Corporation (Holdings). The
Company is a designer, manufacturer and marketer of recreation vehicle air
conditioning equipment in the United States, Canada and certain international
markets.

     On March 17, 1998, the Company completed the acquisition of 100% of the
outstanding common stock of KODA Enterprises Group, Inc. (KODA), a designer and
manufacturer of heating, water heating and cooking appliances for the recreation
vehicle industry and other specialty products for the heating, ventilating and
air conditioning industry. The acquisition was accounted for as a purchase and,
accordingly, the purchase price was allocated to the underlying assets and
liabilities based on their respective fair values. The financial statements
include the accounts and results of operations since that date.

     On November 10, 1997, the Company completed the acquisition of Crispaire
Corporation (Crispaire), a designer, manufacturer and marketer of air
conditioning units and heat pump water heaters. The acquisition was accounted
for as a purchase. Accordingly, the purchase price was allocated to the
underlying assets and liabilities based on their respective fair values. The
financial statements include the accounts and results of operations since that
date.

     The following reflects the operating results of the Company for the three
months ended March 31, 1998 and 1997 assuming the acquisitions occurred as of
the beginning of each of the respective periods:

4.   DEBT:

     On March 17, 1998, the bank amended and restated the Company's Credit
Facility to provide for borrowings in an aggregate principal amount of up to
$38,000,000.

5.   INCOME TAXES:

     Total taxes differs from the statutory rate due to state income taxes.

6.   CONTINGENCY:

     During September 1997, the Company made a decision to upgrade certain air
conditioning units which were sold in previous years. The range of estimated
costs to complete the upgrade was $500,000 to $2,400,000. Management has an
agreement with the vendor that supplied the component to be upgraded and the
vendor is bearing a substantial portion of these costs. The Company's portion of
costs to complete the upgrade is estimated to be $500,000 and, accordingly, the
amount has been included in accrued expenses and other current liabilities at
March 31, 1998.

7.   LITIGATION:

     The Company is a defendant in a lawsuit seeking monetary damages in an
unspecified amount for an alleged patent, trademark and trade dress infringement
by Crispaire. Management of the Company believes that even if this matter were
determined adversely to the Company, the resolution of this matter will not have
a material adverse effect on the Company's financial position, results of
operations or liquidity.

       ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
                            AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Three Months Ended March 31, 1998 Compared to Three Months Ended March 31, 1997

   Net sales. Net sales increased 108.2% from $13.5 million in 1997 to $28.1
million in 1998. Net sales increased primarily due to the $10.0 million and $2.2
million of additional sales related to the acquisition of the Crispaire on
November 10, 1997 and KODA on March 17, 1998, respectively. In addition, the
volume of OEM and after market sales increased in comparison to the first
quarter of 1997, which the Company believes was the result of dealer inventory
adjustments and unseasonably cold weather in the first quarter of 1997.

   Gross Profit. Gross profit increased 115.2% from $3.3 million in 1997 to $7.1
million in 1998. The increase was principally due to the related acquisition of
and gross profit from Crispaire and KODA of $2.6 million and $0.4 million
respectively. The remainder is attributable to the increased volume of OEM and
aftermarket sales.

   Selling, general and administrative expense (including amortization of
intangible assets and computer software). Selling, general and administrative
expense increased 191.7% from $1.2 million in 1997 (9% of net sales) to $3.5
million in 1998 (12% of net sales), primarily due to amortization and
depreciation expenses of Crispaire and KODA.

   Interest expense. Interest expense increased from $0.5 million in 1997 to
$2.5 million in 1998, primarily as a result of the issuance of $90 million of
senior subordinated debt in November 1997 and the issuance of $27.0 million of
bank debt on March 17, 1998.


LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

   For the three (3) months ended March 31, 1998, the Company provided
$5,132,000 in net cash flow from operating activities compared to $833,000 for
the same period in 1997, primarily as a result of seasonal increases in accounts
payable from vendors and increases in accrued interest expense net of decreases
in inventory and accounts receivable. Capital expenditures totaled $266,000 for
the three months ended March 31, 1998, compared to $98,000 for the same period
in 1997 due to normal maintenance capital expenditures.

   During the three (3) months ended March 31, 1998, the Company acquired KODA.
The Company paid the KODA purchase price with borrowings under its revolving
line of credit, proceeds from long-term debt and a capital contribution from the
Company's parent. Subsequent to the acquisition, long-term debt assumed in the
KODA acquisition of $12,586,000 was repaid.

   The Company believes that its existing cash and cash equivalents, revolving
line of credit and cash generated from operations will be sufficient to satisfy
the Company's cash requirements for the foreseeable future.
