THREE MONTH PERIOD ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1995, COMPARED TO THE THREE MONTH PERIOD
ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1994
Revenues for the three months ended September 30, 1995 were $36.0
million compared to $44.8 million in 1994, a decrease of 20%. Net income was
$.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 1995 ($0.05 per share)
compared to $3.0 million in 1994 ($0.23 per share). Total chassis production
for the three months ended September 30, 1995, consisted of 621 units as
compared to 854 chassis for the same period in 1994. The decrease in revenues
and earnings is primarily due to soft retail market
9

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - CONTINUED
conditions in recreational vehicles during 1995, brought about by increases in
interest rates and uncertainty of U.S. economic conditions, resulting in a
decrease in OEM orders. Sales of motorhome chassis units decreased overall by
44%, as unit sales of all recreational vehicle products declined. The entry
level chassis offered by the Company experienced the most significant decrease.
Domestic bus/specialty chassis unit sales increased 184% to 125 units in 1995
compared to 44 units in 1994. Sales of fire truck chassis remained consistent
the 1994 period.
Total costs and expenses as a percentage of revenues increased to
97.0% for the 1995 period as compared to 89.4% for 1994. Cost of products
sold was 85.0% of revenues as compared to 79.9% in the same period of 1994.
The increase is primarily the result of fixed manufacturing overhead being
absorbed by fewer units produced, the mix of chassis produced and the
proportion of these costs relative to the level of revenues. Selling, general
and administrative expenses increased by $.3 million to 9.5% of revenues for
the 1995 period compared with 7.0% for 1994. The increase is the result of
additional expenditures relating to sales promotion, trade shows and the
Company's continuing commitment to customer service. Research and development
costs for the 1995 period remained consistent with the same period of 1994.
The Company is continuing its efforts to expand the application of rear engine
diesel technology to additional market segments in the industry and to
diversify its product lines.
Total chassis orders received decreased 22% during the three months
ended September 30, 1995 to 837 units from 1,072 units for the same period of
1994. The decrease is attributed to a softening in the recreational vehicles
market and higher than average fire truck orders in the third quarter of 1994
as it marked the end of a special fire truck promotion.
NINE MONTH PERIOD ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1995, COMPARED TO THE NINE MONTH PERIOD
ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1994
Revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 1995 decreased to
$109.0 million compared to $145.9 million in 1994, a decrease of 25%. Net
income was $2.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 1995 ($0.17 per
share) compared to $9.7 million ($0.74 per share) in 1994. Total chassis
production for the nine months ended September 30, 1995, consisted of 1,856
units as compared to 3,167 units for the same period in 1994. The decrease in
revenues and earnings is primarily due to soft retail market conditions in
recreational vehicles during 1995, brought about by increases in interest rates
and uncertainty of U.S. economic conditions, resulting in a decrease in OEM
orders. Sales of motorhome chassis decreased overall by 52%. The entry level
chassis offered by the Company experienced the most significant decrease.
Domestic bus/specialty chassis unit sales increased 100% to 184 units primarily
due to the production of school bus and transit bus chassis. Sales of fire
truck units actually increased 20% due to the continued shift from commercial
to custom chassis and the Company's ability to compete with the commercial fire
truck market. The Company will continue its efforts to diversify into other
product lines reducing its dependence on any single product line.
Total costs and expenses as a percentage of revenues increased to
96.8% for the 1995 period as compared to 89.5% for 1994. Cost of products sold
was 84.9% of revenues as compared to 81.5% in
10
<PAGE> 13
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - CONTINUED
the same period of 1994. This increase is primarily the result of fixed
manufacturing overhead being absorbed by fewer units produced, the mix of
chassis produced and the proportion of these costs relative to the level of
revenues. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by $1.1
million to 9.5% of revenues for the 1995 period compared with 6.3% for 1994.
The increase is the result of additional expenditures relating to sales
promotion, trade shows, and the Company's continuing commitment to customer
service. Research and development costs for the 1995 period increased to 2.1%
of revenues compared with 1.5% for the same period of 1994. The increase in
research and development costs is due to the Company's ongoing efforts to
diversify its product lines and expand the applications of rear engine diesel
technology to additional market segments in the industry. Examples of this are
the school bus and the low floor transit bus chassis, and the recently
introduced Euroliner, a deluxe, all purpose over the road tractor.
Total chassis orders received decreased 12.9% during the nine months
ended September 30, 1995 to 2,501 units from 2,870 units for the same period of
1994. This decrease is primarily the result of a softening in the entry level
recreational vehicle market brought about by high interest rates.
At September 30, 1995, the Company had approximately $76.8 million in
backlog chassis orders. This compares with $71.0 million in backlog orders at
September 30, 1994 and represents an increase of approximately $10.3 over the
1995 second quarter backlog. The Company has increased fire truck production
levels in an effort to reduce the backlog and respond more promptly to customer
delivery requirements.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Over the years, the Company has financed its growth through a
combination of funds provided from equity offerings, operations and long and
short-term debt financing. During the nine months ended September 30, 1995,
cash provided by the operating activities amounted to approximately $.6
million. On September 30, 1995, the Company had working capital of $50.4
million compared to $52.3 million at December 31, 1994, a decrease of 3.6%.
The current ratio on September 30, 1995 increased to 5.5 compared with 5.0 on
December 31, 1994. The change in working capital was the result of decreases
in investments, accounts receivable, accounts payable and an increase in
inventories. Investment funds of approximately $2.7 million were used to
repurchase 350,000 shares of the Company's stock at a cost of approximately
$3.4 million. Accounts receivable decreased approximately $3.7 million
primarily due to the decline in revenues for the nine months. Accounts payable
decreased by approximately $1.5 million and is the result of reducing vendor
deliveries and the timing of vendor payments. Inventories increased
approximately $5.5 million principally due to purchases of materials related to
the new school bus and transit bus chassis product lines.
The Company anticipates that cash generated from operations,
utilization of short-term investment securities, the existing credit line, and
the bank long-term financing will be sufficient to satisfy all working capital
and capital expenditure requirements for the foreseeable future. This will
provide the Company with financial flexibility to respond quickly to business
opportunities as they arise, including opportunities for growth through
internal development, strategic joint ventures, or acquisitions.

Spartan de Mexico S.A. de C.V., in an effort to generate bus orders,
is continuing its sales and marketing efforts by attending trade shows and
directly contacting customers in Mexico and South American countries including
Columbia, Costa Rica, Venezuela, Chile, Argentina and Guatemala. The Company
is also conducting body builder surveys and attempting to arrange commercial
financing packages with independent financial institutions for the Company's
potential customers. Spartan de Mexico has recorded losses of approximately
$.05 per share for the nine months ended September 30, 1995. The reduced
production work force is being used to perform service and warranty repairs on
customer chassis but did not produce bus chassis during the nine months ended
September 30, 1995 due to the lack of stability of the Mexican economy. The
Company is currently looking for alternative opportunities for use of the
excess production capacity until the economy and order levels improve.
Stockholders' equity decreased by approximately $1.9 million for the
nine months ended September 30, 1995, a decrease of 3.1%. The decrease is net
of dividends of $.6 million paid July 8, 1995 and the $3.4 million repurchase
of 350,000 shares of the Company's common stock. The Company's total debt to
equity ratio decreased to 10.5% on September 30, 1995, compared to 10.8% on
December 31, 1994.

maximum borrowings of $15,000,000 at 2% above the LIBOR rate (LIBOR rate at
September 30, 1995 was 5.87%). As of September 30, 1995, there were no
