3.    Earnings Per Share

      Effective for the quarter ended January 31, 1998, the Company adopted
      Statement on Financial Accounting Standards No. 128, Earnings Per Share
      (SFAS 128).  SFAS 128 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.  Basic earnings per share is
      calculated by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of shares
      outstanding.  Diluted earnings per share is calculated by dividing net
      income by the weighted-average number of shares outstanding, adjusted for
      dilutive potential common shares.  The following reconciliation details
      the numerators and denominators used to calculate basic and diluted
      earnings per share for the respective periods:

4.    Stock Split

      On January 6, 1998, the Company's Board of Directors authorized a three-
      for-two stock split in the form of a 50% stock dividend payable
      February 20, 1998 to stockholders of record on January 30, 1998.  This
      resulted in the issuance of 1,485,297 additional shares of common stock.
      Share and per share data for all periods presented herein have been
      adjusted to give effect to the 50% stock split.


5.    Stock Dividend

      On December 15, 1998, the Company's Board of Directors declared a 10%
      stock dividend which was paid on February 19, 1999 to stockholders of
      record on January 15, 1999.  This resulted in the issuance of 442,820
      additional shares of common stock.  The dividend was charged to retained
      earnings in the amount of approximately $6.5 million, which was based upon
      the fair value of the Company's common stock.  All references to weighted-
      average shares outstanding and per share amounts included herein reflect
      the 10% stock dividend and its retroactive effect.

                              NOBILITY HOMES, INC.
               MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF RESULTS OF
                       OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION

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

     Net sales for the three months ended May 1, 1999 decreased 3.5 percent to
$10,925,834 from $11,324,503 for the same period last year. Net sales for the
six months also decreased 4.1 percent to $21,032,736 from $21,930,468 a year
ago.  Sales at the Company's Prestige Home Centers for the three months ended
May 1, 1999 increased 15.6 percent to $10,263,029 and the six month period
increased 12.0 percent to $19,425,352 as compared to $8,877,898 and $17,339,644
a year ago respectively. Sales to outside dealers in the second quarter of 1999
decreased approximately $1.8 million for the three months and $3.1 million for
six months as compared to the same periods of 1998.

     Gross profit, as a percentage of net sales, increased to 28.3 percent in
the second quarter of 1999 from 26.8 percent for the same period last year.  For
the six months gross profit, as percentage of net sales, increased to 28.0
percent from 26.2 percent for the same six month period last year.  The increase
in gross profit was primarily a result of improvements in the gross margins at
the Company's Prestige Home Centers.

     Selling, general and administrative expenses, as a percentage of net sales,
increased to 17.3 percent in the second quarter of 1999 from 13.3 percent for
the second quarter last year.  For the six months selling, general and
administrative expenses, as percentage of net sales, increased to 17.1 percent
from 13.7 percent for the same six month period last year.  The increase in
selling, general and administrative expenses, as a percent of net sales, was
primarily due to increased expenses from the seven new retail sales centers
added during the fourth quarter of 1998.

     Other income for second quarter 1999 was $221,393 of which $42,320 was from
interest on short term iasestments and $173,392 represented undistributed
earnings from the Company's financing joint venture, Nobility 21.  For the
second quarter of 1998 other income was $99,383.  For the six months of 1999
other income was $298,767 of which $94,618 was from interest on short term
investments and $194,985 was undistributed earnings from Nobility 21.  For the
same six month period last year other income was $192,236.

     As a result of the factors discussed above, net income for the second
quarter of 1999 was $896,217 or $.18 per share, compared to $1,008,345 or $.20
per share in the second quarter of 1998.  For the six months ended May 1, 1999
net income was $1,614,462 or $.33 per share, compared to $1,808,657 or $.36 per
share as of May 2, 1998.  Earnings per share for 1998 has been restated to
reflect a 10% stock dividend paid on February 19, 1999.

- -------------------------------

     Cash and cash equivalents were $5,047,612 on May 1, 1999 compared to
$5,891,994 as of October 31, 1998.  Working capital increased to $14,157,182 at
May 1, 1999 from $13,141,414 at October 31, 1998.   Inventories increased to
$11,373,424 in the second quarter of 1999 from $10,391,340 at October 31, 1998.
The increased in inventory was due to the additional number of homes
manufactured in the first and second quarter of 1999 for the new retail sales
centers added in fourth quarter of 1998.

     The Company maintains a revolving credit agreement with a major bank
providing for borrowings up to $4.0 million. A second revolving line of credit
agreement with another bank provides for borrowings up to $1.5 million.  These
two agreements provide the Company with an additional $5.5 million of working
capital for use in connection with its overall operations.  At May 1, 1999,
there were no borrowings outstanding under either of these agreements.

               MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF RESULTS OF
                 OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION (Continued)

     Consistent with normal practice, the Company's operations are not expected
to require significant capital expenditures during fiscal year 1999.  Working
capital requirements for the home inventory for new and existing sales centers
will be met with internal sources.

Forward Looking Statements
- --------------------------

     Certain statements in this report are forward-looking statements within the
meaning of the federal securities laws. Although the Company believes that the
expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are based on
reasonable assumptions, there are risks and uncertainties that may cause actual
results to differ materially from expectations. These risks and uncertainties
include, but are not limited to, competitive pricing pressures at both the
wholesale and retail levels, changes in market demand, adverse weather condi-
tions that reduce sales at retail centers, the risk of manufacturing plant
shutdowns due to storms or other factors, and the impact of marketing and cost-
management programs.

Year 2000 Issue
- ---------------

     Many existing computer programs use only two digits to identify a year in
the date field. As the century date change occurs, these programs may recognize
the year 2000 as 1900, or not at all.  If not corrected, many computer systems
and applications could fail or create erroneous results by or at the year 2000
(the "Year 2000 Issue").

     The Company has developed plans to address its possible exposures related
to the impact of the Year 2000 Issue on its operations.  These plans were
implemented primarily with the use of internal resources.  The Company has
assessed (i) the equipment in its manufacturing operations that contains
microprocessors or relies on software, and (ii) the Company's internal systems.
The Company has determined that its manufacturing equipment does not have a Year
2000 Issue.

     The Company's internal systems consist of its central operating and
accounting systems, which handles the majority of its business transactions. The
Company has completed an assessment of its central operating and accounting
systems which resulted in the identification of certain modifications necessary
to bring these systems into year 2000 compliance. These modifications have been
made, primarily through the purchase of updated hardware and updated vendor-
supplied software. Based on the results of initial testing with respect to these
systems, the Company does not anticipate that the Year 2000 Issue will
materially impact operations or operating results.

     The total pretax costs incurred to date in connection with the Year 2000
Issue have not materially impacted the Company's operating results and manage-
ment believes that future costs of compliance, likewise, will not be material.

     The Company believes its planning efforts are adequate to address the Year
2000 Issue and that its risk factors are primarily those that it cannot directly
control, including the readiness of its major suppliers, customers and service
providers.  Failure on the part of these entities to timely remediate their Year
2000 Issue could result in disruptions in the Company's supply of materials,
disruptions in its customers' ability to conduct business and interruptions to
the Company's daily operations.  Management believes that its exposure to third
party risk may be minimized to some extent because it does not rely
significantly on any one supplier or customer.  There can be no guarantee,
however, that the systems and operations relied on by such third parties will be
corrected on a timely basis and will not have a material adverse effect on the
Company.

               MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF RESULTS OF
                 OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION (Continued)

     Due to the nature of the Company's manufacturing and retail operations,
including the fact that the materials used by the Company in its manufactured
homes are widely available, the Company does not currently have formal
contingency plans or a timetable for implementing them. The Company's suppliers
typically maintain a one-month supply of materials. Contingency plans will be
established, if they are deemed necessary, after the Company has adequately
assessed the impact on its operations should third parties fail to properly
remediate their computer systems.  Contingency plans would include such items as
identifying alternative suppliers and increasing inventory levels prior to the
year 2000 to ensure availability of supplies for the Company's manufacturing and
retail operations.
