Note 5.           Warrants / Related Party Transaction

                  On November 20, 1998 the Company  issued  warrants to purchase
                  shares of common  stock to two  individuals,  both of whom are
                  currently  directors  and  one of whom  is an  officer  of the
                  Company,  as  incentive  for their  partial  guarantee  of the
                  Company's long-term debt. The individuals can each purchase up
                  to 200,000 shares of common stock of the Company for $2.20 per
                  share which was the ten day average market price preceding the
                  date of issuance. The warrants have a five year term.

                  The   Company  has  elected  to  follow  APB  25  and  related
                  interpretations  in accounting for its warrants.  Under APB 25
                  no  compensation  expense  has  been  recognized  because  the
                  exercise  price of the Company's  warrants  equaled the market
                  price of the underlying  stock on the date of grant.  Proforma
                  information  regarding  net income and  earnings  per share is
                  required  by  FASB   Statement   No.  123,   "Accounting   for
                  Stock-Based Compensation," ("FAS 123") and has been determined
                  as if the Company had  accounted  for its  warrants  issued in
                  1999  under the fair value  method of FAS 123.  The fair value
                  was  estimated  as of the date of grant  using a  Black-Sholes
                  option  pricing model using a risk free interest rate of 4.8%,
                  a 0%  dividend  yield,  a  volatility  factor  of  58%  and an
                  expected life of 3 years.  The  Company's  proforma net income
                  was $146,000 or $0.04  earnings per share,  $0.03 earnings per
                  share assuming dilution, for fiscal year 1999.

                              RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

                Comparison of the three months ended July 2, 2000
                        (Third Quarter Fiscal Year 2000)
                    to the three months ended June 27, 1999
                        (Third Quarter Fiscal Year 1999)

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


Net Sales

Net sales for the quarter  ended July 2, 2000  increased  $5.0  million to $33.1
million from $28.1 million for the quarter  ended June 27, 1999.  This growth is
primarily from the OEM Automotive Supply segment. OEM Automotive Supply sales in
the  fiscal  2000  quarter  were  $18.2  million  resulting  from the  Company's
performance  under two customer  contracts for the full fiscal quarter while the
prior year quarter sales of $10.5 million were generated from  operations  under
one customer contract in the start-up phase.  Domestic  Conversion Vehicle sales
declined to $12.5  million in the fiscal 2000 quarter from $15.6  million in the
fiscal 1999 quarter due to the decline in demand for conversion vans,  partially
offset by  increasing  bus and  mobility  conversion  sales.  Export  Conversion
Vehicle  sales  increased  to $2.3  million in the fiscal 2000 quarter from $2.0
million in the fiscal 1999 quarter due to higher sales in Japan. Conversion Vans
accounted for 70.5% of total Conversion Vehicle sales in the fiscal 2000 quarter
compared to 82.4% in the prior year fiscal quarter.  Commercial Bus and Mobility
sales  comprised  29.5% of total  Conversion  Vehicle  sales in the fiscal  2000
quarter compared to 17.6% in the prior year fiscal quarter.

Gross profit  decreased to $5.5 million  (16.7% of sales) for the quarter  ended
July 2, 2000 from $5.7 million  (20.4% of sales) for the quarter  ended June 27,
1999. The decrease in gross profit is attributable to a change in product mix of
lower margin  sales in the OEM  Automotive  Supply  segment and lower volume and
larger sales discounts in the Conversion Vehicle segment.

Selling and  promotion  expense was $1.3 million for the quarters  ended July 2,
2000 and June 27, 1999.  General and  administrative  expense  increased to $2.4
million in the fiscal 2000 quarter from $2.0 million for the quarter  ended June
27, 1999  primarily  due to the OEM  Automotive  Supply  segment  supporting  an
additional plant operation.

Interest expense increased to $343,000 for the fiscal 2000 quarter from $310,000
for the fiscal 1999  quarter.  The  increase is due to higher  borrowing  levels
required to fund the working  capital  growth from the higher  sales  levels and
higher interest rates.  Minority interest results from the Company owning 50% of
the OEM  Automotive  Supply  segment.  The prior year  quarter  benefitted  from
$300,000 of cumulative  minority  interest  credit.  Income taxes for the fiscal
2000 quarter were $43,000  resulting  from various  state tax  obligations.  The
Company  does not have  federal  income tax expense at this time due to existing
net operating  loss carry  forwards  generated from prior year losses which were
fully reserved.

                              RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
                Comparison of the nine months ended July 2, 2000
                     to the nine months ended June 27, 1999

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


Net Sales

Net sales for the fiscal 2000 period  increased  $46.7 million to $105.6 million
from $58.9 million for the fiscal 1999 period. This growth is primarily from the
OEM automotive  supply segment.  OEM Automotive  Supply sales in the fiscal 2000
period were $62.9 million  resulting  from the Company's  performance  under two
customer  contracts  for the full fiscal nine month  period while the prior year
nine month period sales of $15.7 million were  generated from  operations  under
one customer contract in the start-up phase.  Domestic  Conversion Vehicle sales
declined  $3.8  million to $32.8  million in the fiscal  2000  period from $36.6
million  in the prior  nine  month  period  due to the  decline  in  demand  for
conversion  vans,  partially  offset by increasing  bus and mobility  conversion
sales. Export Conversion Vehicle sales increased $3.2 million to $9.9 million in
the fiscal 2000 period from $6.7 million in the fiscal 1999 period primarily due
to higher sales in Europe, and improved economic conditions in Asia.  Conversion
Vans  accounted for 73.1% of total  Conversion  Vehicle sales in the fiscal 2000
period compared to 81.9% in the fiscal 1999 period.  Commercial Bus and Mobility
sales  accounted for 26.9% of sales in the fiscal 2000 period  compared to 18.1%
in the fiscal 1999 period.

Gross  profit  increased to $20.5  million  (19.4% of sales) for the 2000 fiscal
period  from $10.1  million  (17.1% of sales) for the fiscal  1999  period.  The
increase in gross profit is  attributable  to the sales growth and higher margin
on the OEM Automotive Supply segment compared to the Conversion Vehicle segment.

Selling and  promotion  expense  increased  to $3.7  million for the fiscal 2000
period from $3.2 million for the fiscal 1999  period.  The increase is primarily
due to the increase in OEM Automotive Supply sales.  General and  administrative
expense  increased  to $6.6  million in the fiscal 2000 period from $5.6 million
for the fiscal 1999 period.  The increase is primarily due to the OEM Automotive
Supply segment supporting an additional plant operation.

Interest  expense  increased  to  $1,109,000  for the fiscal  2000  period  from
$920,000  from the fiscal 1999 period.  The increase is due to higher  borrowing
levels  required to fund the working capital growth from the higher sales levels
and higher interest rates. Minority interest results from the Company owning 50%
of the OEM Automotive  Supply  segment.  Income taxes for the fiscal 2000 period
were $446,000 resulting from various state tax obligations. The Company does not
have federal  income tax expense at this time due to existing net operating loss
carry forwards generated from prior year losses which were fully reserved.

                 CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (continued)

STARCRAFT CORPORATION

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


SEASONALITY AND TRENDS

The Company's  sales and profits are dependent on the automotive  markets in the
United States and overseas, primarily Japan and Europe, and the OEM's ability to
supply  vehicle  chassis.  The OEM  Automotive  Supply  segment is  dependent on
specific  long-term customer  contracts.  The business tends to be seasonal with
stronger  sales in March  through July and is  influenced by a number of factors
including  atypical weather for any sales region and OEM programs  affecting the
price, supply and delivery of vehicle chassis.

The Company  eliminated much excess production  capacity and reduced overhead in
the last  several  years to address a decline in revenue.  In 1997,  the Company
began a plan to  diversify  both its  product  base  and  target  markets  as it
acquired National Mobility Corporation. In 1998, the Company continued to pursue
its cost reduction and  diversification  strategy with the  introduction  of the
shuttle bus product and the start-up of the OEM automotive supply business.  The
Company  plans to continue to develop  these new  products  and to increase  its
offerings in the vehicle conversion commercial market.

In June 2000,  DaimlerChrysler  Corporation  announced that it would discontinue
manufacturing  its fullsize van chassis  after the 2002 model year.  The Company
currently  manufactures domestic van conversions and certain commercial products
on this chassis. Sales built on DaimlerChrysler Corporation fullsize van chassis
were $4.8 million  (4.5% of total sales) and $7.0 million  (7.8% of total sales)
for the nine months ended July 2, 2000 and the 1999 fiscal year, respectively.

In July 2000,  the  Company  announced  the  launching  of a sales and  assembly
operation in Mexico.  Conversion  Vans will be assembled and  distributed to the
Mexican market.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Funds  available  from  operations  and under  the  Company's  revolving  credit
agreement   were  adequate  to  finance   operations  and  provide  for  capital
expenditures during the nine months ended July 2, 2000.

Operations  generated  $3.2  million of cash in the first nine  months of fiscal
2000 compared to consuming cash of $2.1 million in the fiscal 1999 period. Trade
receivables at July 2, 2000 are 35% higher than October 3, 1999 primarily due to
the increased OEM automotive supply business which has 45 day average collection
terms.  Accounts  payable  increased  $4.2  million  from October 3, 1999 due to
increased OEM Automotive Supply purchases.

Capital  expenditures  for the 2000  year-to-date  were $603,000,  primarily for
building improvements, and machinery and equipment.

The Company's net generation of cash was used to reduce bank debt. As of July 2,
2000, bank debt was $12.4 million compared to $14.6 million at October 3, 1999.

The Company  believes that future  cashflows from  operations,  funds  available
under  its  bank  revolving  credit  agreement,  and  the  continued  use of OEM
financing  arrangements  to manage its chassis  inventory  will be sufficient to
satisfy its anticipated  operating needs and capital improvements through fiscal
2001.

The Company's current debt arrangement expires in November 2001 and such debt is
payable  to the  financial  institution.  The  Company  believes  that  with the
continued improvement in the Company's operations, such debt will be reduced and
will likely be  refinanced  with extended  terms prior to the  expiration of the
debt agreement.

The Company has had  significant  working  capital growth and liquidity over the
last year as the Company's sales increased.  The Company believes its objectives
for growth  over the next few years can be  accomplished  with  minimal  capital
investment  and that its internal  resources and existing or  refinanced  credit
facilities will provide sufficient liquidity for such purposes.

The foregoing  discussion  contains  forward looking  statements  regarding cost
savings,  adequacy of capital  resources,  seasonality and supply of, and demand
for,  the  Company's  products,  and the  prospects  of  Management's  operating
strategies,  all of which are subject to a number of important factors which may
cause  the  Company's  projections  to be  materially  inaccurate.  Some of such
factors are described in the  Company's  Form 10-K for the year ended October 3,
1999, under the subsection entitled "Discussion of Forward-Looking  Information"
which is incorporated herein by reference.
