OTHER INFORMATION
SHORT TERM INVESTMENTS:
Short-term investments consist primarily of certificates of deposits with
original maturities greater than 90 days.
INVENTORIES:
Inventories, consisting primarily of raw materials, are stated at the lower
of cost or market, with cost determined on a first-in, first-out basis.
CONTINGENT LIABILITIES:
Repurchase Obligations -- The Company is contingently liable under terms of
repurchase agreements with various financial institutions which provide for the
repurchase of its homes sold to dealers under floor plan financing arrangements
upon dealer default. The Company's exposure to loss under such agreements is
reduced by the resale of the repurchased home. The Company believes any losses
incurred under outstanding repurchase agreements in excess of the accruals
established as of March 31, 1999 will not have a significant impact on the
financial condition of the Company.
Other Contingencies -- Letters of Credit totaling $2,325,000 have been
issued to the Company's insurance carriers who have underwritten the Company's
insurance programs.
REVENUE RECOGNITION:
The Company recognizes revenue when the product is shipped to independent
dealers.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Cash, cash equivalents and short term investments as of March 31, 1999 and
December 31, 1998 were $10,242,000 and $23,741,000, respectively. Working
capital as of March 31, 1999 and December 31, 1998 was $30,582,000 and
$31,075,000, respectively. The decrease of these items has been caused by
accounts receivable and inventory increases as the Company's operations expand
over the normal year-end base, and by the funding of various property, plant and
equipment projects. Also during the three months ended March 31, 1999, the
Company repurchased a total of 24,000 shares of common stock under the program
initiated in 1994 and subsequently amended to acquire up to 700,000 shares of
its common stock.
Results of Operations
Net sales for the first quarter of 1999 were $44,350,000, an increase of
$1,464,000 over the same quarter of 1998. The product mix sold by the Company
follows the industry trend. Multi-section and single-section home sales
increased during the 1999 quarter, when compared to 1998. Net income for the
first quarter of 1999 was $599,000, a $19,000 increase over the same quarter of
1998. Higher operating income and higher interest income during 1999 were
offset in part by a higher minority interest in the operating income.

Outlook and Risk Factors
As sales backlogs in the manufactured housing industry are traditionally
short and as dealer inventories do not normally fluctuate substantially, the
orders that the Company receives are indicative of the day-to-day retail
sales activity of its products. Any changes affecting the desire or ability
of retail customers to purchase, such as cost, availability of credit and
unemployment, have an immediate effect on the Company's operations.
Year 2000
Liberty Homes employs several electronic data processing (EDP) systems
for administrative and reporting purposes. In 1995, the Company began a
process to analyze the need to enhance its systems to accommodate planned
growth of the Company and to meet additional management information needs.
As the Company determined the systems it wished to enhance, it also
discovered the need to ensure all of its systems were able to handle year
2000 dates. This Year 2000 (Y2K) compliance issue then became a part of the
Company's EDP enhancement program. In March of 1996, the Company contracted
for an overall upgrade of its EDP system which, among many things would
provide Y2K compliance for a substantial portion of its EDP systems. This
project is well on the way to completion.
Additionally, the Company has tested and upgraded all of its information
and communication systems hardware for Y2K compliance, installed software
updates containing Y2K compliance code and initiated projects to bring
internally developed systems into Y2K compliance. Overall, the Company plans
to be done with all of its Y2K
9
<PAGE>
compliance efforts by July 31, 1999. Because of the positive results of its
remediation efforts to date, the Company does not have a contingency plan,
nor does it intend to create one at this time.
The Company's manufacturing processes do not utilize systems that are
materially reliant on Y2K compliance. Therefore, the Company's ability to
generate product will not be adversely affected by any Y2K issues.
The Company sells its product to numerous independent dealers, none of
which account for a material portion of the Company's sales. The Company
believes the risk of Y2K noncompliance associated with its dealer group is not
significant.
The Company's operations rely on a variety of suppliers, wholesale and
retail finance sources, transportation companies and utilities. The Company
is not aware of any material compliance problems with these vendors, however,
it will continue to monitor the sufficiency of this group's Y2K compliance
efforts. Liberty Homes believes the sole failure of any vendor would not have
a material adverse effect on the Company's business.
The total cost to date and expected future cost for Y2K remediation is not
material. Internally generated funds are the source of funding these compliance
costs.
The Company believes that its Y2K compliance efforts will significantly
reduce the risk of any material adverse business interruptions caused by
noncompliance. However, this statement should not be considered a guarantee of
such a reduction in risk.
