(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. Net earnings per common share have been restated
to reflect the Company's six-for-five stock split on February 28, 1997.

(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
accruals, which are necessary for a fair statement of the results for the
interim periods presented.

ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
     RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

     THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 29, 1997 COMPARED TO THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 30,
1996. Net Sales in the third quarter of fiscal 1997 were $75.1 million, an
increase of 4.8% from sales of $71.7 million in the third quarter of fiscal
1996. This was a record third quarter for the 

                                      6

Company. This increase was due to utilization of our plant expansions and 
continued strong demand for manufactured housing nationwide. We believe we can 
increase our sales during the fourth quarter compared to last year, if strong 
market conditions continue.  The average selling price per section increased by
1.6% from the same time a year earlier. Total sections sold in the third 
quarter of fiscal 1997 were 3,630, an increase of 113 sections (3.2%) from the 
prior year period. Multi-section homes represented 64.7% of the homes sold 
during the third quarter of fiscal 1997, compared to 60.9% 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 third quarter of fiscal 1997 was $60.3 million,
which represented an increase of $3.0 million (5.2%) from the third quarter of
fiscal 1996, reflecting our increase in sales. Cost of goods sold as a
percentage of net sales remained relatively unchanged at 80.3% in fiscal 1997
compared to 80.0% in fiscal 1996.
     Selling, General, and Administrative Expenses for the third quarter of
fiscal 1997 were $13.3 million, which represented an increase of $0.3 million
(2.1%) from fiscal 1996. As a percentage of net sales, these expenses decreased
to 17.7% from 18.2% in the prior year period. This decrease was due to
decreased warranty costs and dealer volume rebates as a percent of sales from
the prior year period. We believe warranty costs as a percent of sales will
remain at its reduced level for the next quarter as we improve our quality and
efficiency at our operation divisions.
     The Company earned an operating income of $1.5 million in the third
quarter of fiscal 1997 or 2.0% of net sales. This compares to an operating
income of $1.3 million or 1.8% of net sales in the prior year period.
     Interest and other income contributed $219,000 to earnings in the third
quarter of fiscal 1997, compared to $143,000 in the prior year period. This
53.1% 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 third quarter of fiscal 1997 was $1.7 million
compared to $1.4 million in the prior year period. Net income in the third
quarter of fiscal 1997 was a record third quarter of $1.0 million ($0.22 per
common share), compared to a net income of $0.8 million ($0.18 per common
share) in the third quarter of fiscal 1996. Assuming demand for manufactured
housing remains strong, we expect profits in the fourth quarter to be at least
as favorable as the prior year's quarter.
     NINE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 29, 1997 COMPARED TO NINE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 30,
1996. Net Sales in the first nine months of fiscal 1997 were $253.8 million,
which represented an increase of $28.3 million (12.6%) from the first nine
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
1.0% from the same time a year earlier. Total sections sold in the first nine
months of fiscal 1997 were 12,176, an increase of 1,248 sections (11.4%) from
the prior year period. Multi-section homes represented 67.7% of the homes sold
during the first nine months of fiscal 1997, compared to 61.5% 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 nine months of fiscal 1997 was $201.0
million, which represented an increase of $20.7 million (11.5%) from the first
nine months of fiscal 1996. Cost of goods sold as a percentage of net sales
decreased from 80.0% in fiscal 1996 to 79.2% in fiscal 1997. This decrease was
due primarily to decreased material costs. The decrease in material costs as a
percent of sales was a result of improved corporate purchasing procedures.
Future material costs as a percent of sales will depend on market conditions by
region.

                                      7

     Selling, General, and Administrative Expenses for the first nine months of
fiscal 1997 were $43.1 million, which represented an increase of $4.5 million
(11.6%) from fiscal 1996. As a percentage of net sales, these expenses remained
relatively unchanged at 17.0% compared to 17.1% 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 $9.7 million in the first nine
months of fiscal 1997 or 3.8% of net sales. This compares to an operating
income of $6.5 million or 2.9% of net sales in the prior year period.
     Interest and other income contributed $590,000 to earnings in the first
nine months of fiscal 1997, compared to $289,000 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 nine months of fiscal 1997 was $10.2 million
compared to $6.7 million in the prior year period. Net income in the first nine
months of fiscal 1997 was $6.0 million ($1.32 per common share), compared to a
net income of $3.9 million ($0.86 per common share) in the first nine months of
fiscal 1996.

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 $577,000,
a decrease of $107,000 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 nine months of fiscal 1997 were
$7,455,000, compared to $2,747,000 from the prior year period. This increase is
due to a plant expansion at our Buckeye, Arizona facility. In addition, plant
expansions have been approved for our Navasota, Texas and Etna Green, Indiana
facilities. When fully utilized, these expansions should give us $90 million of
additional manufacturing capacity annually.
     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, based upon factors known to us now.
We are aware that materials prices may increase, but we have assumed that we
will have no undue difficulty passing on those costs without adversely
affecting sales. We have also assumed that employee relations will continue to
be favorable, and that no unusual workers' compensation or other legal claim
adversely affects the corporation. The Company is engaged in significant
capacity expansion, and if the market declines, the fixed costs will adversely
affect earnings.  Rising interest rates may adversely affect financing and
sales, and uncertainty about rates continues.  Uncertainty in the equity
markets may affect consumer confidence and home purchase plans.  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. The
manufacture and sale of housing is a complex and difficult business, with
unforeseen events and conditions beyond our control. We do not intend to update
statements made in this report.
