                        NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                      (Unaudited)


   Note A -  The provision or benefit for income taxes is calculated using the
   Company's estimated annual effective tax rate.

   Note B -  Per share amounts are based on the weighted average number of 
   common shares outstanding.  Common stock equivalents have not been included 
   in the computations because their effect would not be dilutive.

   Note C -  During the period reported on, there were no sales of securities.

   Note D -  In the opinion of management, all material adjustments which are
   necessary for a fair statement of financial position, results of operations 
   and cash flows have been included in these financial statements.

   Note E -  The results of the period are not necessarily indicative of annual
   results due to seasonality of the business.

   Note F -  Financial information contained herein is unaudited.

   Note G -  The Company is contingently liable to various financial 
   institutions on repurchase agreements in connection with wholesale inventory 
   financing.  In general, inventory is repurchased by the Company upon default 
   by a dealer with a financing institution and then resold through normal 
   distribution channels.  In addition, the Company is contingently liable to 
   financial institutions for letters of credit which were established to 
   satisfy the self-insured workers' compensation regulations of the states in 
   which the Company conducts manufacturing operations.

   Management does not expect that losses, if any, from the contingencies 
   described above will be of material importance to the financial condition or 
   earnings of the Company.

   Note H -  During the first quarter of fiscal 1994, the Company repurchased
   361,455 shares of common stock for $10.00 per share from the family of one of
   the founders of KIT who died in 1989.

   Note I - During the second quarter of fiscal 1995, the Company received 
   $501,000 in insurance proceeds on a business interruption claim relative to 
   the 1992 tornado damage at the McPherson, Kansas manufactured housing 
   facility and during the third quarter the Company received an additional
   $200,000 in insurance proceeds from the same business interruption claim.

              Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
                               and Results of Operations

        FINANCIAL CONDITION - JULY 31, 1995 COMPARED TO OCTOBER 31, 1994

        Under third quarter market conditions, the Company continued to 
        borrowed on its line of credit to maintain inventory levels to 
        provide for the third quarter increase in sales.  The Company's 
        working capital increased $894,000 due primarily to an increase in 
        inventories and an increase in accounts receivable due to an increase 
        in sales.  The current ratio was 1.9:1 at April 30, 1995 and at
        October 31, 1994.

        The Company's liquidity position as reflected in the current ratio
        described above, capital resources, including excess plant capacity,
        working capital, and line of credit, are considered to be adequate to
        provide for near term anticipated growth.

        RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - QUARTER ENDED JULY 31, 1995 COMPARED TO    
        QUARTER ENDED JULY 31, 1994

        Total sales for the quarter ended July 31, 1995 were $27,537,000, a
        four percent increase from sales of $26,383,000 for the same quarter of
        the prior year.  The increase consisted of a ten percent increase in
        manufactured housing sales and a two percent increase in recreational
        vehicle sales.  RV sales saw an increase as a result of demand for the
        entry-level Sportmaster product. However, Western regional RV sales are 
        down due to lackluster retail sales causing dealers to adjust their 
        inventories. Manufactured housing sales are experiencing competitive 
        pricing pressures resulting in lower margins and rising selling costs.

        Cost of sales increased eight percent from the same quarter of the
        prior year due primarily to the four percent increase in sales volume,
        and increased three percent as a percent of sales. The decline
        in gross profit margins is chiefly attributed to production costs at
        our new recreational vehicle production facility in Caldwell, Idaho 
        and sales of lower margin RV's and manufactured homes.

        Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased 10 percent
        over the same quarter of the prior year and declined one percent as a
        percent of sales. The decrease was due to a reduction in insurance 
        expense.

        Net interest expense for the quarter decreased 79 percent in comparison
        to net interest expense in the same quarter of the prior year. This 
        was a consequence of a significant decrease in the average net
        short-term borrowing. 

        Net income for the three months ended July 31, 1995 was $273,000, or
        $0.25 per share, compared to net income of $374,000, or $0.34 per
        weighted average share, for the same quarter of the prior year. Net
        income for the quarter ended July 31, 1995 included an after tax gain
        on a business interruption claim of $117,000, or $0.11 per share.

        RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - NINE MONTHS ENDED JULY 31, 1995 COMPARED TO    
        NINE MONTHS ENDED JULY 31, 1994       

        Total sales for the nine months ended July 31, 1995 were $75,813,000,
        a 14 percent increase from sales of $66,680,000 for the same quarter
        of the prior year. The increase consisted of a 15 percent increase in
        manufactured housing sales and a 13 percent increase in recreational
        vehicle sales.  RV sales in the Midwestern region saw an increase as a
        result of consumer demand for our entry-level RV product. The Western
        region recreational vehicle sales are down for the nine months due to
        lackluster retail sales in 1995 causing dealers to adjust their 
        inventories. The manufactured housing sales increase was
        chiefly the result of an increase in manufacturing capacity from the
        new production facility in Caldwell, Idaho. However, manufactured
        housing in the Northwest is experiencing increased competitive pricing
        pressures resulting in lower margins and rising selling costs.

        Cost of sales increased 16 percent from the same period of the prior
        year due principally to the 14 percent increase in sales volume, and
        increased two percent as a percent of sales. The decline in
        gross profit margins is chiefly attributed to production costs at the
        new RV production facility and increased sales of lower margin 
        recreational vehicles and manufactured homes. 

        Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased less than
        one percent over the same period of the prior year due and declined
        one percent as a percent of sales. The decrease was primarily due
        to a reduction in insurance costs.

        Net interest income for the current quarter as opposed to net interest
        expense in the same period of the prior year,  increased 159 percent.
        This was a consequence of a significant decrease in the average net
        short-term borrowing. In the first nine months of 1994, the Company
        used its available cash to expand its plant facilities and repurchase
        its common stock thereby increasing its average short-term borrowings.

        Net income for the nine months ended July 31, 1995 was $1,206,000, or
        $1.09 per share, compared to net income of $1,004,000, or $0.84 per
        weighted average share, for the same period of the prior year. Net
        income for the nine months ended July 31, 1995 included an after-tax
        gain from a business interruption claim of $414,000, or $0.37 per
        share.
