CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The following unaudited interim condensed financial statements have
been prepared by the Company pursuant to the rules and regulations of the
Securities and Exchange Commission. Such financial statements have been
reviewed by Arthur Andersen LLP in accordance with standards established by
the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. As indicated in
their report included herein, Arthur Andersen LLP does not express an opinion
on these statements.
Certain information and note disclosures normally included in annual
financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to those rules
and regulations, although the Company believes that the disclosures made are
adequate to make the information presented not misleading. In the Company's
opinion, the statements reflect all adjustments (which include only normal
recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the results of operations
for the periods ending July 28, 1996 and July 30, 1995, and the balances as
of July 28, 1996 and April 28, 1996. It is suggested that these condensed
financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements and
the notes thereto included in the Company's latest annual report on Form
10-K.
REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS
To the board of directors and shareholders of Fleetwood Enterprises, Inc.:
We have made a review of the accompanying condensed consolidated
balance sheet of FLEETWOOD ENTERPRISES, INC. (a Delaware Corporation) and
subsidiaries as of July 28, 1996, and the related condensed consolidated
statements of income for the thirteen week periods ended July 28, 1996 and
July 30, 1995, the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the
thirteen week periods ended July 28, 1996 and July 30, 1995, and the
condensed consolidated statement of changes in shareholders' equity for the
thirteen week period ended July 28, 1996.
We conducted our review in accordance with standards established by the
American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. A review of interim
financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures
to the financial data and making inquiries of persons responsible for
financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an
audit conducted in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards,
the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the
financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such
an opinion.
Based on our review, we are not aware of any material modifications
that should be made to the condensed consolidated financial statements
referred to above for them to be in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles.
We have previously audited, in accordance with generally accepted
auditing standards, the consolidated balance sheet of Fleetwood Enterprises,
Inc. and subsidiaries as of April 28, 1996, and the related consolidated
statements of income, cash flows and changes in shareholders' equity for the
year then ended (not presented herein), and in our report dated June 25,
1996, we expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial
statements. In our opinion, the information set forth in the accompanying
condensed consolidated balance sheet as of April 28, 1996, is fairly stated,
in all material respects, in relation to the consolidated balance sheet from
which it has been derived.

Current Quarter Compared to Same Quarter Last Year
Net income for the first quarter of fiscal 1997 jumped to $64,110,000 or
$1.40 per share compared to $22,798,000 or 49 cents per share in the prior
year. Included in current year earnings is an after-tax gain of $33,891,000
or 74 cents per share on the sale of Fleetwood Credit Corp., the Company's RV
finance subsidiary. First quarter earnings also include $887,000 or 2 cents
per share for one month of operations from the discontinued finance
operation.
Income from continuing operations rose 44 percent to a record $29,332,000 or
64 cents per share, up from $20,406,000 and 44 cents per share a year ago.
Sales gains and improved operating margins for both manufactured housing and
recreational vehicles led to the higher operating earnings. Most of the
improvement, however, came from the RV group primarily as a result of sharply
higher motor home sales and profits.
With all business segments producing higher sales, consolidated revenues
increased 7 percent to $751.2 million compared to $704.7 million last year.
Prior year revenues have been restated to remove $13.8 million of finance
revenues because of the sale of Fleetwood Credit Corp. and its treatment as a
discontinued operation.
Manufactured housing sales reached a new first quarter high of $377.1
million, 4 percent ahead of last year's $361.5 million. The company sold
17,453 homes in the quarter compared to 17,350 in last year's similar period.
A higher percentage of sales were represented by multi-section homes which
led to a 4 percent rise in the volume of floors shipped. Despite the
increased sales volume, housing group sales as a percentage of total Company
revenues fell from 51 percent last year to 50 percent in this year's first
quarter.
Recreational vehicle revenues were up 8 percent to $357.9 million on the
strength of sharply higher motor home sales. The motor home division
generated a 33 percent sales increase to $223.9 million on a 20 percent gain
in shipments to 4,174 units. Travel trailer revenues were off 5 percent to
$116.9 million as unit volume slipped 8 percent to 8,837 units. The folding
trailer division experienced a 22 percent sales decline to $17.1 million with
unit shipments sliding 34 percent to 3,524. Last year's first quarter
included sales of $18.3 million from the European RV operation which was sold
in May 1996. Recreational vehicle sales were 48 percent of total Company
revenues, up from 47 percent last year.
Manufacturing gross profit improved as a percentage of sales from 18.6
percent to 19.4 percent, led by improved margins in the RV group. The higher
RV margins primarily reflected increased labor efficiencies and lower
manufacturing overhead costs. Housing group margins as a percentage of sales
were virtually unchanged from the prior year.
Operating expenses of $101.2 million were 2 percent higher than last year's
similar period, but lower as a percentage of sales, falling from 14.1 percent
to 13.5 percent. Selling expenses dropped 10 percent to $43.1 million as
reductions in RV marketing and sales promotion expenses more than offset
higher product warranty costs. As a percentage of sales, selling expenses
declined from 6.8 percent to 5.7 percent. General and administrative
expenses rose 14 percent to $58.1 million and increased as a percentage of
sales from 7.3 percent to 7.7 percent. The increase was primarily due to
higher management incentive compensation stemming from improved profits.
Non-operating income doubled to $3.9 million compared to last year's $1.9
million mainly as a result of higher investment income. Income from
investments of $5.4 million was 85 percent ahead of last year largely due to
a temporary bulge in cash balances available for investment. The large
increase in invested funds mainly resulted from the sale of Fleetwood Credit
Corp. and the assumption of $80 million in long-term debt from the finance
subsidiary. In late July, the Company completed a tender offer for 7.7
million shares of its outstanding Common stock which used up all of the
proceeds from the finance company transactions. The Company expects
investment income to return to more normal levels in future quarters.
The effective income tax rate declined to 39.6 percent from 40.4 percent a
year ago largely due to the elimination of the German RV operation which last
year was generating operating losses with no tax benefits.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company generally relies upon internally generated cash flows to satisfy
working capital needs and to fund capital expenditures. Cash generated from
operations in the first quarter was $41.0 million compared to $79.0 million
in the prior year. Increased investments in receivables and inventories in
the current year led to the decline in cash flow relative to the prior year.
Cash and investments fell $75.9 million to $212.0 million primarily due to
the purchase of the Company's Common stock as explained below.
Cash received during the quarter included the proceeds from the sale of
Fleetwood Credit Corp., which totaled $132.2 million, net of income taxes.
This, combined with proceeds from the sale of investment securities, resulted
in net cash of $208.8 million provided by investing activities.
During the quarter, the Company completed a Dutch Auction tender offer
resulting in the purchase of 7.7 million shares or approximately 17 percent
of its outstanding Common stock at a cost of $240.5 million. The Company may
from time to time make further share repurchases. There remains outstanding
a previous authorization by the Board of Directors to purchase up to 1.7
million shares of the Company's Common stock. Other cash outflows during the
quarter included $3.3 million for capital expenditures and $7.3 million for
quarterly dividends paid to shareholders.
On August 14, 1996, shortly after quarter end, the Company made a scheduled
debt repayment of $25 million which reduced long-term debt outstanding to $55
million.
