(2) SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
         NET EARNINGS PER COMMON SHARE
         Net earnings per common share is calculated by dividing net income by
the weighted average number of common shares and common share equivalents
outstanding during the period.  

(3) INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
         The Company's quarterly sales and operating results are principally
affected by the seasonal nature of the Company's business. Historically, the
Company's sales and operating results are at their lowest levels in the fiscal
third quarter, when weather conditions have an adverse impact on both orders
and shipments. In the opinion of Company management, the interim financial
statements reflect all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring

         THREE MONTHS ENDED DECEMBER 28, 1996 COMPARED TO THREE MONTHS ENDED
DECEMBER 30, 1995. Net Sales in the second quarter of fiscal 1997 were $85.6
million, an increase of 16.8% from sales of $73.3 million in the second quarter
of fiscal 1996. This was a record second quarter for the Company. This increase
was due to utilization of our plant expansions and strong market conditions,
combined with a broader product line offering in certain regions. Although
sales are





                                       6
<PAGE>   7
difficult to predict in the third quarter due to the impact of weather
conditions on sales and shipments, we believe we can increase our sales during
the third quarter compared to last year, if strong market conditions continue.
The average selling price per section increased by 0.8% from the same time a
year earlier. Total sections sold in the second quarter of fiscal 1997 were
4,128, an increase of 568 sections (16.0%) from the prior year period.
Multi-section homes represented 69.4% of the homes sold during the second
quarter of fiscal 1997, compared to 62.8% in fiscal 1996. The Company is
uncertain whether the increased proportional sales of multi-section homes will
continue because it is subject to regional preferences and economic conditions.
         Cost of Goods Sold in the second quarter of fiscal 1997 was $68.2
million, which represented an increase of $9.3 million (15.7%) from the second
quarter of fiscal 1996, reflecting our increase in sales. Cost of goods sold as
a percentage of net sales decreased from 80.4% in fiscal 1996 to 79.6% in
fiscal 1997. This decrease in cost of goods sold as a percent of sales was due
primarily to decreased material costs. Material costs decreased as a result of
improved corporate purchasing procedures. The decrease in material costs as a
percent of sales will depend on market conditions by region.
         Selling, General, and Administrative Expenses for the second quarter of
fiscal 1997 were $14.6 million, which represented an increase of $2.2 million
(17.7%) from fiscal 1996. As a percentage of net sales, these expenses
increased to 17.1% from 17.0% in the prior year period. Warranty costs as a
percent of sales decreased from the prior year period, however this was offset
by higher corporate expenses including training and Total Quality Management
costs.
         The Company earned an operating income of $2.8 million in the second
quarter of fiscal 1997 or 3.3% of net sales. This compares to an operating
income of $1.9 million or 2.6% of net sales in the prior year period.
         Interest and other income contributed $240,000 to earnings in the
second quarter of fiscal 1997, compared to $134,000 in the prior year period.
This 79.1% increase is the result of larger earnings available for investment.
We don't expect this to continue due to utilization of cash for capital
expenditures.
         Pre-tax income for the second quarter of fiscal 1997 was $3.0 million
compared to $2.0 million in the prior year period.  Net income in the second
quarter of fiscal 1997 was a record second quarter of $1.8 million ($0.47 per
common share), compared to a net income of $1.2 million ($0.31 per common
share) in the second quarter of fiscal 1996. We are uncertain whether this
51.2% increase in earning will continue.
         SIX MONTHS ENDED DECEMBER 28, 1996 COMPARED TO SIX MONTHS ENDED
DECEMBER 30, 1995. Net Sales in the first six months of fiscal 1997 were $178.7
million, which represented an increase of $24.9 million (16.2%) from the first
six months of fiscal 1996.  Again, this increase was due to utilization of our
plant expansions and strong market conditions, combined with a broader product
line offering in certain regions. The average selling price per section
increased by 0.8% from the same time a year earlier. Total sections sold in the
first six months of fiscal 1997 were 8,546, an increase of 1,135 sections
(15.3%) from the prior year period.  Multi-section homes represented 68.9% of
the homes sold during the first six months of fiscal 1997, compared to 61.7% in
fiscal 1996. The Company is uncertain whether the increased proportional sales
of multi-section homes will continue because it is subject to regional
preferences and economic conditions.
         Cost of Goods Sold in the first six months of fiscal 1997 was $140.7
million, which represented an increase of $17.7 million (14.4%) from the first
six months of fiscal 1996. Cost of goods sold as a percentage of net sales
decreased from 80.0% in fiscal 1996 to 78.7% in fiscal 1997. This decrease was
due primarily to decreased material costs. Again, the decrease in material
costs as a percent of sales was a result of improved corporate purchasing
procedures.
         Selling, General, and Administrative Expenses for the first six months
of fiscal 1997 were $29.8 million, which represented an increase of $4.2
million (16.4%) from fiscal 1996. As a





                                       7

percentage of net sales, these expenses increased to 16.7% from 16.6% in the
prior year period. Again, warranty costs as a percent of sales decreased from
the prior year period, however this was offset by higher dealer volume rebates
and corporate expenses including training and Total Quality Management costs.
         The Company earned an operating income of $8.2 million in the first
six months of fiscal 1997 or 4.6% of net sales. This compares to an operating
income of $5.2 million or 3.4% of net sales in the prior year period.
         Interest and other income contributed $372,000 to earnings in the
first six months of fiscal 1997, compared to $147,000 in the prior year period.
This increase is the result of larger earnings available for investment. We
don't expect this to continue at such a high rate due to utilization of cash
for capital expenditures.
         Pre-tax income for the first six months of fiscal 1997 was $8.5
million compared to $5.3 million in the prior year period.  Net income in the
first six months of fiscal 1997 was $5.0 million ($1.32 per common share),
compared to a net income of $3.1 million ($0.81 per common share) in the first
six months of fiscal 1996. We are uncertain whether this increase in earning
will continue.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
         At the end of the current quarter, the Company had no outstanding
borrowings under its credit facility, which remained unchanged from the balance
at June 29, 1996. At the end of the quarter, total long-term debt was $625,000,
a decrease of $59,000 compared to the balance at June 29, 1996. The Company's
unsecured credit facility expiring January 31, 2000 permits borrowings of up to
$10,000,000.
         Capital expenditures for the first six months of fiscal 1997 were
$3,621,000, compared to $1,689,000 from the prior year period.
         The Company expects that funds generated from operations combined with
funds available under long-term secured financing arrangements and its
revolving credit facility will be adequate to support its capital expenditure
needs and required debt amortization.

RISK FACTORS
         Forward-looking statements are made only as of the date made, based
upon factors known to management at the time. We are aware that materials
prices may increase, and have assumed that we will have no undue difficulty
passing on those costs without adversely affecting sales. We have also assumed
that employee relations continue to be favorable, that orders on hand are not
canceled by dealers, and that no unusual workers' compensation or other legal
claim adversely affects the corporation. In the short term, weather factors are
often more significant in winter, and may severely restrict shipment and
manufacture of houses. New housing starts have declined recently, and Schult is
experiencing soft markets in certain regions along with the rest of the
industry. Rising interest rates may adversely affect financing and sales, and
uncertainty about rates continues. The Company has assumed that the current
generation of retirees and the emerging generation of retirees will have the
same interest in purchasing manufactured homes, an assumption which has not yet
been tested and may not be appropriate. We are aware that unpredictable events
can and do occur and cannot assure anyone that adverse events will not take
place. The manufacture and sale of housing is a complex and difficult business,
with many unforeseen events and conditions beyond the control of manufacturers.
We do not intend to update statements made in this report.
