SUPREME INDUSTRIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE A - BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND OPINION OF MANAGEMENT
- --------------------------------------------------------

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been 
prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and therefore do 
not include all of the information and financial statement disclosures 
necessary for a fair presentation of consolidated financial position, results 
of operations and cash flows in conformity with generally accepted accounting 
principles.  In the opinion of management, the information furnished herein 
includes all adjustments necessary to reflect a fair statement of the interim 
periods reported.  All adjustments are of a normal and recurring nature.  The 
December 31, 1996 consolidated balance sheet data was derived from audited 
financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by 
generally accepted accounting principles.


NOTE B - INVENTORIES
- --------------------

Inventories, which are stated at the lower of cost or market with cost 
determined on the first-in-first-out method, consist of the following:

                                    June 30,           December 31,
                                      1997                 1996    
                                 ------------          ------------
    Raw materials..............  $ 12,400,031          $ 12,076,089
    Work-in-progress...........     3,138,669             3,138,668
    Finished goods.............     6,751,272             5,993,950
                                 ------------          ------------
                                 $ 22,289,972          $ 21,208,707
                                 ============          ============

The valuation of raw materials, work-in-progress and finished goods 
inventories at interim dates is based upon a gross profit percentage method 
and bills of materials.  The Company has had favorable and unfavorable 
adjustments in the third and fourth quarters resulting from the annual 
physical inventories.  The Company is continuing to refine its costing 
procedures for valuation of interim inventories in an effort to minimize the 
annual book to physical inventory adjustments.

The effective income tax rates for the three and six months ended June 30, 
1997 were 39.6% and 39.9%, respectively, compared to 41.3% and 41.7% for the 
three and six months ended June 30, 1996.  The decreases are attributable to 
the Company's higher levels of income decreasing the impact of items treated 
differently for financial statement purposes and income tax return purposes 
and improved operations of the Company's Honduran subsidiary, which is 
operating in a government tax free zone.

NOTE D - STOCK DIVIDEND
- -----------------------

On May 1, 1997, the Board of Directors declared a 5% common stock dividend 
payable on May 19, 1997, to shareholders of record on May 12, 1997.  Earnings 
per share and weighted average shares outstanding have been restated to 
reflect the 5% stock dividend for all periods presented.


NOTE E - RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
- -----------------------------------------

In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued 
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 128, "Earnings Per 
Share."  The Company is required to initially adopt this pronouncement 
during its quarter ending December 31, 1997, and will be required to then 
restate all prior periods presented to conform with the new standard.  SFAS 
No. 128 will require the Company to make a dual presentation of basic and 
diluted earnings per share on the face of its consolidated statement of income
instead of primary and fully diluted earnings per share.  The Company has
not determined the impact SFAS No. 128 will have on historically reported 
earnings per share.

In June 1997, the FASB issued SFAS No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income" 
and SFAS No. 131, "Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related 
Information" both of which the Company will be required to adopt in its 
financial statements for the year ending December 31, 1999.  SFAS No. 130 
will require the Company to report comprehensive income in its financial 
statements.  Comprehensive income includes net income and certain 
transactions that are reported as a separate component of stockholder's 
equity.  SFAS No. 131 specifies revised guidelines for determining
operating segments and the type and level of information to be disclosed.  
The Company has not yet determined what changes in its disclosures, if any, 
will be required by SFAS No. 131.


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


Results of Operations
- ---------------------

Revenues for the three months ended June 30, 1997 increased $12.2 million to 
$56.3 million from $44.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 1996.  
Revenues for the six months ended June 30, 1997 increased $17.9 million to 
$100.4 million from $82.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 1996.

Net income for the three months ended June 30, 1997 increased to $3.3 million 
from $2.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 1996, while net income 
for the six months ended June 30, 1997 increased to $5.0 million from $3.1 
million for the six months ended June 30, 1996.  Fully diluted earnings per 
share for the three months ended June 30, 1997 was $.33, while fully diluted 
earnings per share was $.50 for the six months ended June 30, 1997.  The 
comparable prior year results were $.21 for the three months ended June 30, 
1996 and $.31 for the six months ended June 30, 1996 an increase of $.12 and 
$.19, respectively.  Earnings per share for all periods presented have been 
restated to reflect the 5% stock dividend paid to shareholders of record
on May 12, 1997.

Revenue increases for both the three months and six months ended June 30, 
1997 were largely concentrated in the Company's dry freight product lines 
which increased 25.2% and 21.4% for the three months and six months, 
respectively.  The Company's StarTrans (trademark) bus products increased 
47.1% and 31% for the three months and six months ended June 30, 1997 over 
the comparable prior year periods.  The Company's Indiana and Pennsylvania 
facilities were responsible for the largest regional revenue increases.  The 
Company's other regions also shared increases over the comparable prior year
periods.

The Company's gross profit increased to 18.5% and 17.5% for the three months 
and six months ended June 30, 1997, respectively, from 17.6% and 16.4% for 
the comparable prior year periods.  The Company's raw material cost as a 
percentage of revenues increased slightly (less than 1%) for both the three 
months and six months ended June 30, 1997 from the comparable prior year 
periods.  The Company's direct labor cost as a percentage of revenues was 
unchanged in the three months ended June 30, 1997 and only slightly down for 
the six months ended June 30, 1997.  The Company's overhead expenses declined 
1.6% and 1.4% as a percentage of revenues for the three months and six months 
ended June 30, 1997, respectively.  Contributing to the decline in overhead 
in both periods were those expenses that either do not fluctuate or do not 
fluctuate proportionately with increases in revenues.

Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenues 
declined to 7.9% and 8.4% for the three months and six months ended 
June 30, 1997, respectively, from 9.0% and 9.1% for the comparable prior year 
periods.  The actual dollar comparisons show an increase of $.5 million and 
$.9 million for the three months and six months ended June 30, 1997, 
respectively.  Contributing to the dollar increase were the Company's 
additional distribution facilities that were in operation for the full period 
in 1997 and only for a portion of the six months ended June 30, 1996.  Also
contributing to the dollar increase were those items that fluctuate
proportionately with revenues.

Interest expense for the three months and six months ended June 30, 1997 was 
$.4 million or .7% of revenues and $.8 million or .8% of revenues, 
respectively.  The comparable prior year amounts were $.2 million or .6% of 
revenues and $.8 million or .9% of revenues for the three months and six 
months periods ended June 30, 1996, respectively.  Interest expense in the 
1996 periods was reduced by $.2 million of interest that was capitalized in 
accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 34.

The Company recently completed a computer hardware and software selection 
process which was necessitated by the inability of the present system to 
handle the year 2000, the need for improved technology to process the 
continuing increased volume of transactions and the need for improved 
information reporting.  The Company has selected a vendor and has begun the 
initial planning for the conversion and implementation of new operating 
software.  The Company believes the new operating software will be 
implemented successfully in advance of the year 2000 requirements.


Liquidity and Capital Resources
- -------------------------------

Cash flows from operations and funds available under the Company's revolving 
credit agreement were adequate to finance operations and provide for capital 
expenditures during the six months ended June 30, 1997.  Net income of $5.0 
million combined with depreciation and amortization of $1.4 million were the 
significant factors contributing to cash flows.  Cash flow provided by 
operating activities was $1.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 1997 
while $.6 million was used in operating activities for the six months 
ended June 30, 1996.  In both periods operating cash was used to finance
increasees in accounts receivable and inventories relative to the increased
volume the Company normally experiences in its second quarter.

The major investing activities during the six months ended June 30, 1997 
were the construction of and equipment for a new paint facility in Goshen, 
Indiana; production tooling for proprietary parts and improved laminating 
capabilities; and improved production and paint capabilities in Jonestown, 
Pennsylvania. 

The only significant financing activity during the quarter was the use of 
the Company's revolving credit facility.  Net cash provided by financing 
activities was $.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 1997 compared 
to $6.9 million in the prior year period which included $3.2 million for the 
purchase of the California manufacturing facility.

The Company anticipates that cash flows from operations and amounts 
available under its revolving line of credit will be sufficient to meet the 
Company's cash needs during 1997.
