affecting the Company's financial condition or results of operations. Readers of
this discussion are cautioned that any such forward looking statements are not

Securities and Exchange Commission.
Results of Operations
- ---------------------
The following table sets forth, for the periods indicated, consolidated
statement of income data as a percentage of net sales.

2000 1999

Net Sales 100.0% 100.0%
Cost of Sales 76.5% 73.0%

Income Before Taxes 8.8% 11.5%

Net Income 5.6% 7.5%
* Less than 1%.
Three Months Ended March 31, 2000, compared to three months ended March 31, 1999
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Net Sales. Net Sales increased approximately $0.7 million to approximately $14.7
million for the first quarter 2000 compared to approximately $14.0 million in
the first quarter 1999. This was an increase of approximately 4.9% in net sales.
The primary factor for the increase in sales was due to increases in lumber cut,
product built and packed. The second shifts in key bottleneck areas that are now
staffed at each plant has helped achieve the increases. The most measurable
effect is the decrease in firm orders backlog from $8.5 million at March 31,
1999 to $7.7 million at March 31, 2000, which is approximately a 9.1% decrease.

<PAGE>
Cost of Sales. Cost of Sales as a percentage of net sales increased
approximately 3.5% for the first quarter 2000, at 76.5% compared to 73.0% for
the first quarter 1999. Actual cost of sales rose from approximately $10.2
million for the first quarter 1999 to approximately $11.2 million for the first
quarter 2000. Direct labor and indirect labor costs were up approximately $0.4
million combined. Employee turnover continues to require training and has
resulted in some inefficiencies in the manufacturing process. The variable costs
were up approximately $0.5 million as parts loss and yield costs were affected
by the skill of the new employees.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. Selling, General and
Administrative Expenses was about the same for the first quarter of 1999 and
2000 at approximately $2.2 million. As a percent of net sales, Selling, General
and Administrative Expenses decreased from 15.5% for the first quarter 1999 to
14.7% for the first quarter 2000. Most of the reduction was due to advertising
costs which were committed in the first quarter of 1999 based on equal shipments
of the first quarter 1998. However, shipments were down $2.7 million the first
quarter 1999 which is a decrease of approximately 16.2% from the first quarter
of 1998.
Net Income. As a result of the above factors, net income for the first quarter
declined 21.5% to approximately $0.8 million in 2000 compared to approximately
$1.0 million in 1999.
Financial Condition and Liquidity
- ---------------------------------
There was no significant changes in the company's liquidity. Cash was down
approximately $0.8 million while accounts receivables were up approximately $0.9
million. The primary reason for the increase in accounts receivables was an
increase in shipments of approximately $0.6 million in March compared to
February. The primary factor for the decrease in cash is due to increased
inventories of approximately $0.8 million. This is primarily due to the mismatch
of inventory to fill orders. Working capital increased from $23.3 million in the
first quarter 1999 to $24.0 million in 2000, for an increase of approximately
3.0%. The current ratio increased from 5.2 to 1.0 for the first quarter 1999 to
6.7 to 1.0 in 2000. The Company anticipates funding its growth strategy with
cash generated from operations.
Year 2000
- ---------
The Company experienced no material disruptions or problems due to any Year 2000
computer problems. All components of the Company's information system and other
digitally controlled equipment performed as expected. There were no material
interruptions of supplies from any vendors. All Year 2000 hardware and system
installations were completed as of December 31, 1999 as forecasted. Since all
Year 2000 actions have been completed, we anticipate no further Year 2000 costs
will be incurred.
Dividend Action
- ---------------
The Board of Directors approved a dividend of $0.035 per share for the first
quarter 2000 at their April 28, 2000 meeting.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
