                        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.

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

        FINANCIAL CONDITION -APRIL 30, 1995 COMPARED TO OCTOBER 31, 1994

        Under second quarter market conditions, the Company borrowed on its
        line of credit to increase inventory levels to provide for anticipated
        second quarter seasonal sales.  The Company's working capital
        increased $458,000 due primarily to an increase in inventories and an
        increase in accounts receivable due to an increase in sales.  The
        current ratio decreased to 1.8:1 at April 30, 1995 in comparison to
        1.9:1 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 APRIL 30, 1995 COMPARED TO    
        QUARTER ENDED APRIL 30, 1994

        Total sales for the quarter ended April 30, 1995 were $26,425,000, a
        six percent increase from sales of $24,996,000 for the same quarter of
        the prior year.  The increase consisted of a nine percent decrease in
        manufactured housing sales and a 11 percent increase in recreational
        vehicle sales.  RV sales saw an increase as a result of demand for the
        entry-level RV product. However, Western regional RV sales are down
        due to a general economic slow-down during the normally high volume
        second quarter selling season. The manufactured housing sales decrease
        was the result of a general slowing in the housing market in the
        Northwestern sales region, including site built and manufactured
        homes, as well as an increase in consumer interest rates which
        negatively affect sales of high-end homes. 

        Cost of sales increased seven percent from the same quarter of the
        prior year due primarily to the six percent increase in sales volume,
        and increased less than two percent as a percent of sales. The decline
        in gross profit margins is chiefly attributed to production costs at
        our new manufactured housing production facility and sales of lower
        margin recreational vehicles.

        Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased six percent
        over the same quarter of the prior year and declined one percent as a
        percent of sales. The decrease was due in large part to cost saving 
        measures instituted by the Company in the areas of marketing and
        administrative expenses.

        Net interest income for the current quarter as opposed to net interest
        expense in the same quarter of the prior year,  increased 132 percent.
        This was a consequence of a significant decrease in the average net
        short-term borrowings. In the first quarter 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 three months ended April 30, 1995 was $674,000, or
        $0.61 per share, compared to net income of $355,000, or $0.32 per
        weighted average share, for the same quarter of the prior year. Net
        income for the quarter ended April 30, 1995 included an after tax gain
        on a business interruption claim of $301,000, or $0.27 per share.

        RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - SIX MONTHS ENDED APRIL 30, 1995 COMPARED TO    
        SIX MONTHS ENDED APRIL 30, 1994       

        Total sales for the six months ended April 30, 1995 were $48,276,000,
        a 20 percent increase from sales of $40,297,000 for the same quarter
        of the prior year. The increase consisted of a 17 percent increase in
        manufactured housing sales and a 21 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 up for the six months due to
        increased demand in both the low-end and mid-price point markets.
        However, the Western sales region has experienced a decline in sales
        during the normally high volume second quarter selling season
        primarily due to a general slowdown in economic conditions which has
        curbed retail buying. The manufactured housing sales increase was
        chiefly the result of an increase in manufacturing capacity from the
        new production facility in Caldwell, Idaho. However, during the latter
        half of the six month period, sales of manufactured homes have
        declined due to a general slowing in the housing market, including
        site built and manufactured homes.  In addition, increases in consumer
        interest rates, negatively affected sales of high-end homes.

        Cost of sales increased 22 percent from the same period of the prior
        year due principally to the 20 percent increase in sales volume, and
        increased less than two percent as a percent of sales. The decline in
        gross profit margins is chiefly attributed to production costs at the
        new manufactured housing production facility not offset by an increase
        in sales and increased sales of lower margin recreational vehicles. 

        Selling, general and administrative expenses increased six percent
        over the same period of the prior year due to the increase in unit
        sales but declined one percent as a percent of sales. The decrease was
        due in large part to cost saving measures instituted by the Company in
        the areas of marketing and administrative expenses.

        Net interest income for the current quarter as opposed to net interest
        expense in the same period of the prior year,  increased 265 percent.
        This was a consequence of a significant decrease in the average net
        short-term borrowings. In the first six 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 six months ended April 30, 1995 was $936,000, or
        $0.84 per share, compared to net income of $630,000, or $0.51 per
        weighted average share, for the same period of the prior year. Net
        income for the six months ended April 30, 1995 included an after-tax
        gain from a business interruption claim of $301,000, or $0.27 per
        share.
