                               Clayton Homes, Inc.
              Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
                                   (unaudited)

1.   The condensed consolidated financial statements of Clayton Homes, Inc. and
     its subsidiaries have been prepared by the Company, without audit, pursuant
     to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission.
     Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial
     statements prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting
     Principles have been omitted. The condensed consolidated financial
     statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and
     notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report to Shareholders for
     the year ended June 30, 1996.

     The information furnished reflects all adjustments which are necessary for
     a fair presentation of the Company's financial position as of March 31,
     1997; the results of its operations for the three month and nine month
     periods ended March 31, 1997 and 1996; and the changes in its cash position
     for the nine months ended March 31, 1997 and 1996. All such adjustments are
     of a normal recurring nature.

2.   The results of operations for the nine months ended March 31, 1997 and 1996
     are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the
     respective full years.

3.   Effective July 1, 1996, the Company adopted Statement of Accounting
     Standards No. 123, Accounting and Disclosure of Stock-Based Compensation,
     which encourages but does not require companies to recognize stock awards
     based on their fair value at the date of grant. As the Company elected to
     adopt only the disclosure requirements of the new standard, it will
     continue to apply the provisions of Accounting Principles Board Opinion No.
     25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees (APB 25), and related
     interpretations in accounting for its employee stock options. Under APB 25,
     because the exercise price of the Company's employee stock options equal
     the market price of the underlying stock on the date of grant, no
     compensation expense is recognized.

4.   In February 1997, the FASB issued Statement of Accounting Standards No,
     128, Earnings Per Share (EPS). The Statement simplifies the standards for
     computing earnings per share by replacing the presentation of primary
     earnings per share with a presentation of basic earnings per share.
     Additionally, the Statement requires dual presentation of basic and diluted
     EPS on the face of the income statement and requires a reconciliation of
     the numerator and denominator of the diluted EPS calculation. The Company
     plans to adopt the provisions of the Statement 128 in fiscal year 1998 and
     the impact on the Company's financial statements has not been determined.

</TABLE>

million. As manufactured housing sales rose 7% to $563 million, financial
services income grew 22% to $99 million and rental and other income increased 9%
to $35 million.

Net sales of the Retail Group rose 9% to $340 million on a 1% rise in the
average home price, and a 10% increase in company-owned sales centers,
offsetting a 2% decrease in the average number of homes sold per sales center.




                                       5
<PAGE>   6

Net sales of the Manufacturing group increased 4% to $197 million as the number
of homes sold was up 1%. The average wholesale price to independent retailers
increased 3%, as a result of a shift in product mix toward multi-section homes.

Net sales of the Communities group rose 19% to $25 million as 12% more homes
were sold and the average home selling price increased 6%.

Financial services income increased 22%. Interest and loan servicing revenues
grew $12 million, and insurance related revenues rose $5 million. Rental and
other income increased 9% on a 9% rise in Communities rental income and a $1
million increase in other income.

Financial services interest expense decreased 21%, to $2.1 million. Average debt
collateralized by installment contract receivables dropped 22% to $27 million,
while the weighted average interest rate moved from 10.35% to 10.49%. The terms
of the debt preclude prepayment by the Company.

Gross profit margins improved to 32.5% from 32.1%. The increase is primarily
attributable to a higher percentage of retail sales in the total sales mix.

Selling, general and administrative expenses, as a percent of revenues, were
26.9%, slightly above the 26.4% in the year earlier period. The provision for
credit losses was 0.5% of sales versus 0.6% last year.

The following table represents delinquent installment sales contracts as a
percentage of the total number of installment sales contracts which the Company
serviced and either owned or was contingently liable. A contract is considered
delinquent if any payment is more than one month past due.

Total revenues for the three months ended March 31, 1997, increased 7% on a 5%

income to $11 million.

Net sales of the Retail group rose 8% to $110 million as the number of
company-owned sales centers was up 7% and the average number of homes sold per
sales center increased.

The Manufacturing group's net sales decreased to $59 million as the number of
homes sold was down 7%. The average wholesale price to independent retailers

Net sales of the Communities group jumped 22% to $9 million primarily on a 17%
increase in units sold and a 5% increase in the average home price.

Rental and other income decreased 16% on a 4% increase in communities rental
income and a $2 million decrease in other income.

Financial services interest expense decreased 20%, to $.6 million. Average debt
collateralized by installment contract receivables dropped 23% to $25 million,
while the weighted average interest rate increased from 9.52% to 9.90%. The
terms of the debt preclude prepayment by the Company.

Gross profit margins improved to 33.5% from 32.0%. The increase is primarily
attributable to a higher percentage of retail sales in the total sales mix.
Retail sales comprised 62% of total sales this quarter compared to 60% last year
in the quarter.

Selling, general and administrative expenses, were 28.5% of revenues compared to
27.1% in the prior comparable period, mainly attributable to the start-up of new
financial service product lines and higher insurance claims. The provision for
credit losses remained constant as a percent of sales at 0.6%.
