Reference is made to the Current Report on Form 8-K (the "Form 8-K") filed
by American Homestar Corporation (the "Corporation") on October 9, 1996. The
Form 8-K is hereby amended to read in its entirety as follows:
ITEM 2. ACQUISITION OR DISPOSITION OF ASSETS
Pursuant to the Option Agreement, dated January 10, 1996, among the
Corporation, Guerdon Homes, Inc., Guerdon Holdings, Inc. (collectively
"Guerdon") and certain security holders (the "Securityholders") of Guerdon (the
"Option Agreement"), the Company obtained a 9-month option to acquire Guerdon
(the "Option"). Upon acquiring the Option, the Company loaned $3,000,000 to
Guerdon evidenced by an 8.5% Promissory Note and pledged $1,000,000 of assets
as collateral under Guerdon's bank credit facility. The proceeds of the loan to
Guerdon were used by Guerdon to fund its working capital needs. On September
24, 1996, the Corporation, Guerdon and the Securityholders entered into an
Exercise and Settlement Agreement whereby, among other things, the Corporation
exercised the Option and agreed to pay an aggregate of $14,754,073 (the
"Consideration") to the Securityholders. The Consideration was paid on
September 24, 1996. The Consideration was determined on arms-length
negotiations among the parties.
The assets acquired by the Corporation include Guerdon's leasehold interests
in four operating manufacturing facilities located in Stayton, Oregon; Boise,
Idaho; Gering, Nebraska and Vicksburg, Mississippi, which facilities produce
manufactured homes (although the Gering facility also produces modular homes),
and the equipment, inventory and other assets associated with such facilities.
The assets acquired also include a new manufacturing facility owned by Guerdon
and located in Pendleton, Oregon (which facility is not operating), and a
leasehold interest in a closed manufacturing facility in Alexander City,
Alabama. The Corporation intends to continue such use of those assets.
Bank One Texas National Association provided $11,677,678 of the financing to
fund the cash portion of the acquisition price of Guerdon, with the remainder
coming from working capital of the Corporation.
To the best knowledge of the Corporation, there is no material relationship
between Guerdon and the Corporation, or any of its affiliates, any director or
officer of the Corporation, or any associate of such director or officer.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
To the Board of Directors of
Guerdon Holdings, Inc.
Lake Oswego, Oregon:
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Guerdon
Holdings, Inc. and its subsidiaries as of April 28, 1995 and April 26, 1996 and
the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in stockholders'
equity (deficit), and cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period
ended April 26, 1996. These financial statements are the responsibility of the
Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform our audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of
material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit
also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant
estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial
statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis
for our opinion.
In our opinion, such consolidated financial statements present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of Guerdon Holdings, Inc. and
subsidiary at April 28, 1995 and April 26, 1996 and the results of their
operations and their cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period
ended April 26, 1996, in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles.
As discussed in Note 13 to the financial statements, the Company changed its
method of accounting for certain costs related to product design and retailer
development in 1995.

accounts of Guerdon Holdings, Inc. ("GHI") and it wholly-owned subsidiary,
Guerdon Homes, Inc. ("Guerdon") (together, the "Company"). The Company's
operations are conducted by Guerdon which operates in the factory-built
housing industry.
On February 27, 1996, American Homestar Corporation ("American
Homestar") obtained a nine month option (the "Option") to acquire the
Company. American Homestar which intends to support Guerdon's operations
also loaned $3,000 to the Company and pledged $1,000 of collateral under
the Company's senior bank facility. American Homestar also signed a
management agreement with the Company and managed the Company's operations
during the Option period. On September 27, 1996, American Homestar
exercised its option and acquired the Company.
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
AND CORPORATE ORGANIZATION
Use of Accounting Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the
financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses
during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those
estimates
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all short-term investments with an original
maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
Property, Plant and Equipment
Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation is
computed over the estimated useful lives of the assets using the
straight-line method.
Income Taxes
The taxable income of GHI and Guerdon is included in the consolidated
federal income tax return filed by GHI. State income taxes are paid by
Guerdon directly to the appropriate authorities. The Company uses the
liability method of accounting for income taxes. Under this method,
deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based upon differences
between financial reporting and tax basis of assets and liabilities and are
measured using the enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when
the differences are expected to reverse. The Company records a valuation
allowance to reduce deferred tax assets to an amount that is more likely
than not to be realized.
Intangibles
Goodwill represents the excess of purchase price over the net assets
acquired. Goodwill and trade name are amortized on a straight-line basis
over forty years. Leasehold interests represents the fair value of the
plant facilities under lease and are amortized on a straight-line basis
over the life of the original lease which expires in December 2002. The
costs of other intangible assets are amortized on a straight-line basis
over their estimated useful lives, ranging from two to five years. The
Company evaluates the realization of its intangible assets using
undiscounted cash flows.
Inventories
Inventories are valued at the lower of cost, using the first-in,
first-out (FIFO) method of inventory valuation, or market.

(DOLLARS IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT SHARE AND PER SHARE DATA)
The Company entered into a $4,000 revolving credit agreement in April
1994. The borrowing limit was increased to $6,000 in March 1995. Borrowings
under the revolving credit agreement bear interest at the lender's publicly
announced prime rate (9.25% at April 26, 1996) plus 2%. The revolving
credit agreement has a maturity date of December 1, 1996. Loan commitment
fees paid equal 1% of the face amount of the note. In addition, the holders
of subordinated debt have pledged an additional $1,400 of collateral under
the Company's senior bank facility. The Company accrued $383 in structuring
fees related to this collateral and accrues an availability fee of 1.67%
per month.
On March 6, 1995, the Company entered into a financing arrangement for
the purchase of equipment. The loan is a five year loan with payments of
$13 of principal per month plus interest at the 5-year U.S. Treasury Note
four week average yield (5.875% at April 26, 1996) plus 3%.
On March 8, 1995, the Company obtained a $2,100 plant construction
loan. The loan bears interest at the lender's publicly announced prime rate
(9.25% at April 26, 1996) plus 2%. The loan is in the process of being
converted to either a 10 year or 15 year real estate loan at the Company's
election that will bear interest at the five year U.S. Treasury note plus
3%. The project received its certificate of completion on January 19, 1996.
In conjunction with the issuance of the senior subordinated debt of
$1,000 in 1995 and junior subordinated debt of $500 in 1995, warrants to
purchase 11,697 shares of common stock at $16.57 were issued in 1995 to the
senior subordinated debtholders, and warrants to purchase 10,937 shares of
common stock at $16.57 were issued to the junior subordinated debtholders.
These warrants, in addition to the warrants issued in 1994, were
issued at a discount of $17.68 and, accordingly, the senior subordinated
debt and junior subordinated debt were discounted by $1,503 and $1,829,
respectively. The discounts were being accreted over the life of the debt.
Including the warrant's value, the senior subordinated debt and junior
subordinated debt had effective interest rates of 9.2% and 18.3% higher
than the stated interest rates, respectively, in 1995. Additionally, the
Company must pay an annual fee equal to 3% on the outstanding balance of
the junior subordinated debt. In 1996, the Company was in default on the
senior and junior subordinated debt and had not received waivers from the
lenders. As a result, the Company has classified all such debt as current
and fully amortized the discount on the senior and junior subordinated debt
in the current year.
The senior subordinated debt was subordinated to the debt under the
revolving credit agreement and the junior subordinated debt was
subordinated to the debt under the revolving credit agreement and the
senior subordinated debt. All payments of principal or interest to the
subordinated debtholders and payments of dividends or redemptions of common
and preferred stock required the express written consent of the senior
debtholder.
The Company was required to maintain certain financial covenants,
including certain amounts of tangible net worth and debt service and
interest coverage ratios. Substantially all assets of the Company were
pledged as security under these loan agreements. As of April 26, 1996, the
Company was in violation of certain of these covenants. The Company was
unable to obtain waivers from the various debtholders and, accordingly,
classified the appreciable debt as current. In connection with American
Homestar's acquisition of the Company, the senior debt, senior subordinated
debt and junior subordinated debt were repaid in full.
The scheduled maturities of all long-term debt is: 1997, $204; 1998,
$182; 1999, $3,183; 2000, $184; 2001, $160.

the Company, American Homestar redeemed all shares plus accrued and unpaid
dividends.

Common Stock Subject to Repurchase
The Company has issued 14,653 shares of common stock for $100 that are
subject to repurchase, at the option of the shareholder, at the fair market
value of common stock upon exercise of the put option. The put option is
exercisable commencing on May 1, 1995, and will terminate upon the
Company's sale of common stock in a public offering which results in
aggregate cash proceeds to the Company of at least $5,000.
The maximum aggregate number of shares of common stock which the
Company may be required to repurchase is limited to 10% during fiscal year
1996, 15% during fiscal year 1997 and 20% during each fiscal year
thereafter of the then outstanding or issuable shares of common stock of

Warrants
The Company issued to a shareholder and former officer warrants to
purchase 51,282 shares of common stock for $6.83 per share and 3,419 shares
of common stock for $11.70 per share. These warrants were exercised by
agreement at $0.01 per share in 1996.
The Company has also issued warrants to purchase 188,504 shares of
common stock for $16.57 per share to the senior subordinated and junior
subordinated debtholders, of which 103,467 are exercisable through April 4,
2004. The remaining 85,037 are exercisable through the earlier of April 4,
2004 or the sixth anniversary of the date on which the senior subordinated
debt (senior debt) is paid in full or at maturity. The foregoing warrants
are subject to provisions relating to circumstances surrounding the
repayment of senior debt or a merger or initial public offering (IPO) of
the Company. In the event that a merger or IPO occurs after the second
anniversary of the date of grant (April 4, 1994) but on or before the third
anniversary date, then 9.0975% of the warrants (contingent warrants) shall
be exercisable for 10% of the shares and the remaining 90% shall be
canceled and no longer subject to exercise. In the event that all senior
debt is repaid after the first anniversary of the date of grant, but on or
before the third anniversary date, then 40% of the contingent warrants
shall remain exercisable and the remaining shall be canceled and no longer
subject to exercise.

Rent is due under various operating leases, principally for
manufacturing facilities, equipment, and computers, for each of the
following fiscal years and in the aggregate thereafter as follows:

========
</TABLE>
Under the terms of the plant leases, the Company is responsible for
the payment of property taxes, maintenance of the facilities and insurance.
The plant leases are subject to a rent adjustment every three years based
on the lesser of the United States Bureau of Labor Statistics Consumer
Price Index for all Urban Consumers or a factor of 1.1 times the present
rent. The next rent adjustment is scheduled for January 1, 1997. The
Company has the options to buy the plant facilities within the last year of
the lease term or may renew the lease for an additional ten-year term. In
addition, the Company has acquired an option to purchase the lease plants
for an agreed-upon price, which option expires on February 27, 1997. Total
rent expense related to the Company was $756, $902, $848, $285 (unaudited)
and $223 (unaudited) for the years ended April 29, 1994, April 28, 1995,
and April 26, 1996 and four months ended August 25, 1995 and August 30,
1996, respectively.
Repurchase Commitments
The majority of sales are made to dealers under commitments by
financial institutions to pay for units as they are delivered. In
accordance with customary industry practice, some financial institutions
require the Company to execute repurchase agreements which provide that, if
a dealer defaults on repayment of the financing, the Company will
repurchase its product from the financial institution in accordance with a
declining repurchase price schedule. While the gross contingent liability
under these agreements is substantial, the risk of loss is spread over
numerous dealers and is reduced by the resale value of the products
repurchased. No losses on repurchased units were recognized for the years
ended April 29, 1994, April 28, 1995 and April 26, 1996 and for the four
months ended August 30, 1996 (unaudited).
Outstanding Litigation
The Company is party to various legal claims, actions and complaints,
certain of which involve material amounts. Although the Company is unable
to predict with certainty whether or not it will ultimately be successful
in these legal proceedings or, if not, what the impact might be, management
presently believes that disposition of these matters will not have a
material adverse effect on the Company's consolidated results of
operations, financial condition or cash flows.
9. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
FASB Statement No. 107, Disclosures About Fair Value of Financial
Instruments, requires disclosure of fair value information about financial
instruments when it is practicable to estimate that value. The carrying
amount of the current assets (primarily accounts receivable and inventory)
and current liabilities (primarily short-term subordinated debt and
accounts payable) approximates fair value based on the short maturity of
these instruments. The fair value of the Company's long-term debt is
estimated on quoted market prices for the
F-12
<PAGE> 16
GUERDON HOLDINGS, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(DOLLARS IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT SHARE AND PER SHARE DATA)
same or similar issues or on the current rates offered to the Company for
debt of the same remaining maturity. Based on the borrowing rates currently
available to the Company for bank loans with similar terms and average
maturities, the fair value of long-term senior debt and long-term
subordinated debt at April 26, 1996 is $1,080 and $3,000, respectively.
10. PENSION PLAN
The Company offers a defined contribution plan to all employees having
one year of service. Eligible employees may elect to contribute up to 15%
of their annual compensation to the plan. The Company may contribute a
matching contribution at its own discretion. Pension expense for the years
ended April 29, 1994, April 28, 1995 and April 26, 1996 and the four months
ended August 25, 1995 and August 30, 1996 were $224, $171, $46, $17
(unaudited) and $24 (unaudited), respectively.

</TABLE>
A significant portion of the before tax net operating loss experienced
in fiscal years 1995 and 1996 resulted from restructuring and nonrecurring
accruals or write-off, a change in accounting principle, nonrecurring
losses from the results of operations of plants which have been curtailed,
and from overhead costs related to the expansion and construction of those
plants. Although the cumulative effect of these items was substantially
negative to the operations in fiscal years 1995 and 1996, all of these
items were of a nonrecurring nature, and accruals have been made to the
1995 and 1996 financial statements to allow for the expected full impact on
the Company's operations. Based on these facts, the historical
profitability of the Company, and management's assessment of operations for
the foreseeable future, management strongly believes that the full benefit
of the deferred tax assets recognized will be realizable in future
operations.
Net operating loss carry forwards for state and federal taxes of
$3,693 and $3,598 expire in the years 2010 and 2011, respectively.
12. RESTRUCTURING
To control overhead costs and streamline production, the Company began
a plan of curtailing growth. Production at the plant in Colorado which was
acquired in 1995 has been shifted to other facilities. The Company recorded
restructuring accruals of $1,046 in fiscal 1995 and $1,181 in fiscal 1996
including employee severance liability, lease termination costs and other
costs associated with the closure of these operations and charged $478 to
income for the write-offs of the Colorado leasehold interest. The Company
sold its wholly-owned subsidiary, Guerdon Financial Services, Inc., in the
second quarter of fiscal year 1996. The Company recorded losses of $517
resulting from operations and the sales transaction in 1995. Additionally,
the Company recorded accruals and expenses related to the American Homestar
transaction of $567 in 1996.
Prior to the repurchase of stock, the Company maintained a corporate
office in Columbia, Maryland for the benefit of its wholly-owned
subsidiaries. The corporate office had no operations and a substantial
amount of administrative expenses were allocated to the subsidiaries. This
office, and all of its related activities, have
F-14
<PAGE> 18
GUERDON HOLDINGS, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(DOLLARS IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT SHARE AND PER SHARE DATA)
been closed. The costs associated with running the corporate office in
Maryland ($736) and the expenses associated with the write-off of the
Company's investment in RBS ($2,292) are shown as a separate line item
($3,028) on the consolidated statement of operations for the year ended
April 29, 1994.
13. CHANGES IN ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLE
Effective May 1, 1994, the Company began expensing certain costs
related to product design and retailer development. Such costs had
previously been capitalized and amortized over a three-year period. The new
method of accounting was adopted because management believes that it more
closely and conservatively represents the actual results of operations and
the useful lives of such expenditures. The net effect had this principle
been applied in prior years would have been to increase income before taxes
by $495 in fiscal 1995 and to decrease operating income by $495 in fiscal
1994. Loss before taxes for the year ended April 28, 1995 would have been
$628 less if this accounting change had not been made.
