                       COACHMEN INDUSTRIES, INC.
         CONDENSED NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS

1.  The consolidated balance sheet data as of December 31, 1995 was
    derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all
    disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles.

2.  In the opinion of management, the information furnished herein
    includes all adjustments of a normal and recurring nature necessary
    to reflect a fair statement of the interim periods reported.  The
    results of operations for the three and six-month periods ended June
    30,1996 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected
    for the full year.

3.  Inventories consist of the following:

                                    June 30,            December 31,
                                      1996                  1995

    Raw material                 $ 21,473,580          $ 16,580,013
    Work in-process                 7,474,784             7,268,705
    Finished goods                 31,008,933            31,585,779

      Total inventories          $ 59,957,297          $ 55,434,497

4.  Effective January 1, 1996, the Company changed its method of
    accounting for its investment in life insurance contracts which were
    purchased to fund liabilities under deferred compensation agreements
    with executives and other key employees.  Prior to January 1, 1996,
    the Company accounted for its investments in life insurance
    contracts by capitalizing premiums under the ratable charge method
    (a method of accounting which was acceptable when the insurance
    contracts were originally acquired and continued to be acceptable
    for contracts acquired prior to November 14, 1985).  Effective
    January 1, 1996, the Company changed to the cash surrender value
    method of accounting which is the preferred method under generally
    accepted accounting principles, as this method more accurately
    reflects the economic value of the contracts.

    On January 1, 1996, the Company recorded a $2.3 million noncash
    credit for the cumulative effect of this accounting change.  This
    change also increased net income for the six months ended June 30,
    1996 by $486,601 or $.03 per share.  On a pro forma basis, net
    income and net income per share for the six months ended June 30,
    1995 would have been $7,787,246 and $.52, respectively, if this
    accounting change had been made prior to 1995.

5.  The Company was contingently liable at June 30, 1996 to banks and
    other financial institutions on repurchase agreements in connection
    with financing provided by such institutions to most of the
    Company's independent dealers in connection with their purchase of
    the Company's recreational vehicle products.  These agreements
    provide for the Company to repurchase its products from the
    financing institution in the event that they have repossessed them

                                 Page 7

    upon a dealer's default.  The risk of loss resulting from these
    agreements is spread over the Company's numerous dealers and is
    further reduced by the resale value of the products repurchased.
    The Company is involved in various legal proceedings which are
    ordinary litigations incidental to the industry and which are
    covered in whole or in part by insurance. Management believes that
    any liability which may result from these proceedings will not be
    significant.

6.  On July 17, 1996, the Company's Board of Directors approved a two-
    for-one split of its common stock for shareholders of record on
    August 7, 1996.  The split has an effective date of August 28, 1996.

    All share and per share amounts in the accompanying consolidated
    financial statements have been retroactively adjusted to give effect
    to the stock split.

NET SALES

Consolidated net sales for the quarter ended June 30, 1996 were $166,715,051,
an increase of 30.1% over the $128,192,670 reported for the corresponding
quarter last year.  Net sales for the six months were $315,355,074 
representing an increase of 21.3% over the $259,963,049 reported for the same
period in 1995. The Company's vehicle segment, which includes the parts and
supply group of companies, experienced net sales increases of 29.4% and 21.4%
for the quarter and six months, respectively.  The Company's housing segment
had a net sales increase for the 1996 quarter of 33.6% and 20.9% for the six
months. Both vehicles and housing experienced increases in unit sales and
increases in market share.

COST OF GOODS SOLD

Cost of goods sold increased 28.6% or $31,521,362 for the three months and
20.3% or $45,801,598 for the six months ended June 30, 1996.  The increase
for both periods is generally in line with the increase in net sales. The
slightly lower increase than the increase in net sales represents the
spreading of fixed costs over higher production volume.  The housing segment
of the Company continues to experience expected lower profitability levels
from recent expansion into North Carolina and Tennessee.

SELLING AND DELIVERY EXPENSES

As a percentage of net sales, selling and delivery expenses were 3.8% and
5.0% for the 1996 and 1995 quarter and 4.4% and 4.9% for the comparable
six-month periods. For selling expense, this represents decreases, as a
percentage of net sales, of .6% for the quarter and .9% for the six months,
primarily resulting from increased demand for the Company's products.
Delivery expenses tend to fluctuate with sales mix, as well as changes in
geographical areas to which products are delivered. As a percentage of net
sales, there was an overall increase in delivery expense of .1% for the
six months.

GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSE

General and administrative expense was $5,664,130 or 3.4% of net sales for
the second quarter compared to $5,493,070 or 4.3% for the 1995 corresponding
three months and $11,263,756 or 3.6% of net sales for the six months compared
to $10,120,684 or 3.9% for the 1995 six months. A decrease in the percent
usually accompanies an increase in net sales due to the fixed nature of the
expenses in this category. The most significant portion of the increase in
dollars for both periods is increased incentive compensation earned at an
earlier point in the year as a result of increased profits.

INTEREST EXPENSE

Interest expense was $400,946 and $841,035 for the three and six-month
periods in 1996 compared to $784,764 and $1,513,096 in the same periods last
year.  These decreases are primarily the result of a change to the cash

                                Page 10

<PAGE>

surrender value method of accounting for the Company's investment in life
insurance contracts.  These life insurance contracts were purchased to fund
liabilities under deferred compensation agreements with executives and other
key employees.  The interest costs associated with deferred compensation
obligations and with the borrowings against the cash value of the insurance
policies are now partially offset by the increases in cash surrender values
each accounting period.  Previously, the increases in cash surrender values
were not recognized, since the investment in life insurance contracts
consisted only of the capitalized insurance premiums.

INTEREST INCOME

Interest income increased $23,912 and $86,821, respectively, for the 1996
three and six-month periods.  The amount is indicative of the increase in
cash and temporary cash investments in 1996 over 1995. This increase in cash
and temporary cash investments was basically generated from operating
activities throughout 1995 and the first six months of 1996.

GAIN ON THE SALE OF PROPERTY, NET

The net gain on the sale of property for the second quarter of 1996 was
$24,697 lower and for the six months was $46,577 lower than in the same
periods in 1995.  These variances are the result of the amount of gain
recognized upon the disposition of various small properties.  Assets are
continually analyzed and every effort is made to sell or dispose of
properties that are idle or determined to be unproductive.

OTHER, NET

Other income, net, represented income of $107,469 for the second quarter and
$448,799 for the six months compared to income of $275,682 and $448,475 for
the 1995 second quarter and six months, respectively. The most significant
variance for the second quarter was due to an increase in interest 
participation in finance company transactions.

INCOME TAXES

For the second quarter ended June 30, 1996, the effective tax rate was 36.6%
and a year-to-date rate of 36.2% compared to a second quarter effective tax
rate in 1995 of 37.2% and a year-to-date rate of 37.1%.  The decrease in the
rate for 1996 is due to the amount of nontaxable income recognized over the
prior year.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Company generally relies on funds from operations as its primary source
of liquidity. In addition, the Company maintains an unsecured committed line
of credit, which totaled $30 million at June 30, 1996, to meet its seasonal
working capital needs.  At June 30, 1996, there were no borrowings against
this line of credit. For the six months, the major source of cash was from
operating activities.  The most significant items in this category were net
income and depreciation.  Significant increases in receivables and 
inventories were largely offset by increases in accounts payable and accrued
expenses, including income taxes.  Investing activities reflected a net cash
use of $5,213,838.  The principal use of cash in investing activities was the
investment in property and equipment.  The negative cash flow for financing 
activities was primarily from cash dividends and payments of long-term debt. 
At June 30, 1996, the working capital increased $6.4 million over December 31,
1995 to $67.0 million.
