Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements 
For the three and nine-month periods ended February 29, 1996 
and February 28, 1995
                                                                      
The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements
contain all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring adjustments)
necessary to present fairly the consolidated financial position as of
February 29, 1996 and the consolidated results of operations and changes
in cash for the three and nine-month periods ended February 29, 1996 and
February 28, 1995.

The unaudited interim consolidated financial statements included herein
have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations for reporting on
Form 10-Q.  Accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosures
normally accompanying the annual consolidated financial statements have
been omitted.  The interim consolidated financial statements should be
read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes
thereto included in the Corporation's latest annual report on Form 10-K.

The financial data included herein has been subjected to a limited review
by Price Waterhouse LLP, the registrant's independent accountants, whose
report is included on page 7 of this filing.

Inventories are stated at cost, determined under the first-in, first-out
method, which is not in excess of market.  Physical inventory counts are
taken at the end of each reporting quarter.  

The Corporation and its subsidiaries were contingently liable at February
29, 1996 under agreements to purchase repossessed units on floor plan
financing made by financial institutions to its customers.  Losses, if
any, would be the difference between repossession cost and the resale
value of the units.  There have been no material losses in past years
under these agreements, and none are anticipated in the future.

The Corporation is a party to various pending legal proceedings in the
normal course of business.  Management believes that any losses resulting
from such proceedings would not have a material adverse effect on the
Corporation's results of operations or financial position.

                   Report of Independent Accountants


March 15, 1996

To The Board of Directors and Shareholders of Skyline Corporation

We have reviewed the accompanying consolidated balance sheet as of
February 29, 1996 and the related consolidated statements of earnings and
retained earnings for the three-month and nine-month periods ended
February 29, 1996 and February 28, 1995 and the consolidated statements of
cash flows for the nine-month periods ended February 29, 1996 and February
28, 1995 of Skyline Corporation and Subsidiary Companies.  This financial
information is the responsibility of the company's management.

We conducted our review in accordance with standards established by the 
American Institute of Certified Public Accountants.  A review of interim
financial information consists principally of applying analytical
procedures to financial data and making inquiries of persons responsible
for financial and accounting matters.  It is substantially less in scope
than an audit conducted in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards, the objective of which is the expression of an opinion
regarding the financial statements taken as a whole.  Accordingly, we do
not express such an opinion.

Based on our review, we are not aware of any material modifications that
should be made to the accompanying financial information for it to be in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results 
of Operations
                                                                       
  
Liquidity and Capital Resources

At February 29, 1996 cash and investments in U.S. Treasury Bills totaled
$54,135,000, an increase of $14,224,000 from $39,911,000 at May 31, 1995.
Current assets exclusive of cash and investments in U.S. Treasury Bills
totaled $66,765,000 at February 29, 1996, a decrease of $660,000 from the
balance at May 31, 1995 of $67,425,000.  Increases in trade accounts
receivable ($3,944,000) were offset by reductions in finished goods
inventories ($3,245,000).  Current liabilities increased $12,471,000 from
May 31, 1995 to $45,717,000 at February 29, 1996.  This increase in
current liabilities can mainly be attributed to increased marketing
program accruals ($8,655,000).  Working capital at February 29, 1996
amounted to $75,183,000 compared to $74,090,000 at May 31, 1995.  Capital
expenditures totaled $1,987,000 in 1996 compared to $12,885,000 in the
first nine months of the prior year.  Capital expenditures during the
current fiscal year were made primarily to increase manufacturing
capacity, adopt new manufacturing processes and increase manufacturing
efficiencies.  Cash was also used to purchase $9,671,000 of Company stock
in fiscal 1996.  The cash provided by operating activities in fiscal 1996
is expected to be adequate to fund any capital expenditures and treasury
stock purchases during the year.  Historically, the Corporation's
financing needs have been met through funds generated internally.


Results of Operations for the Quarter and Nine-months Ended 
February 29, 1996

Sales in the quarter ended February 29, 1996 amounted to $138,562,000, an  
8.0 percent decrease from $150,657,000 in the comparable quarter of the
prior year.  Manufactured housing sales decreased 1.9 percent to 
$114,818,000 in 1996 compared to $117,011,000 in 1995.  Manufactured
housing unit sales decreased to 4,250 compared to 4,583 in 1995.
Recreational vehicle sales decreased 29.4 percent to $23,744,000 in the
third quarter of fiscal 1996 compared to $33,646,000 in fiscal 1995. 
Recreational vehicle unit sales decreased to 1,898 compared to 2,785 in
fiscal 1995.  

Sales during the first nine months of fiscal 1996 amounted to $474,886,000 
a 0.9 percent increase from $470,460,000 in the comparable period of the
prior year.  

<PAGE>
Manufactured housing sales increased 9.1 percent to $406,195,000 in 1996
compared to $372,419,000 in 1995.  Manufactured housing unit sales
increased to 15,277 compared to 14,981 in 1995. Recreational vehicle sales
decreased 29.9 percent to $68,691,000 in the first nine months of fiscal
1996 compared to $98,041,000 in fiscal 1995.  Recreational vehicle unit
sales decreased to 5,535 compared to 8,092 in 1995.

Sales for the third quarter were negatively affected by unusually severe
weather conditions in many areas of the country.  Sales for the first nine
months of fiscal 1996, exclusive of the effects of the severe weather,
reflect continuing strong demand for manufactured housing in most sections
of the country and a continued industry slowdown in the RV marketplace.

Cost of sales in the third quarter decreased to 83.5 percent of sales
compared with 84.9 percent in 1995, while the cost of sales for the first
nine months of both years were very comparable to the quarters (82.6
percent in fiscal 1996 and 84.5 percent in fiscal 1995).  The decrease in
costs is due to efficiencies gained by increased sales volume, higher
product selling prices in the manufactured housing segment, and continued
cost containment efforts.

Selling and administrative expenses for the third quarter were 13.8 
percent of sales compared with 13.2 percent in 1995.  Selling and
administrative expenses in the first nine months of fiscal 1996 increased
as a percentage of sales to 13.6 percent from 12.7 percent in fiscal 1995. 
Both increases are due primarily to the costs of increased marketing
efforts.

Interest income amounted to $1,497,000 in the third quarter of fiscal 1996
compared to $1,343,000 one year earlier.  Interest income is directly
related to the amount available for investment and the prevailing yields
of U.S. Government securities.  The increase in interest income was due to 
higher investment levels and yields during the period.


Income Taxes

The provision for federal income taxes approximates the statutory rate and
for state income taxes reflects current state rates effective for the
period based upon activities within the taxable entities.
