1.       Basis of Presentation

         The condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all
         adjustments, which include only normal recurring adjustments, which
         are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair and accurate
         presentation. Certain footnote disclosures normally included in
         financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted
         accounting principles have been omitted. The condensed consolidated
         financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited
         financial statements for the year ended March 27, 1998. Results of
         operations for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of
         results to be expected for a full year.

         On June 30, 1998, the Board of Directors of the Company declared a
         5-for-4 stock split effected in the form of a 25% stock dividend to
         shareholders of record on July 14, 1998. The stock dividend was paid on
         July 28, 1998. Historical common share and per share data for all

4.       Other Assets

         Other assets include goodwill of $65.7 million at June 26, 1998 and
         $63.5 at March 27, 1998, with accumulated amortization of $3.9 million
         and $3.0 million, respectively.

5.       Floor Plan Payable

         The Company has floor plan credit facilities totaling $170.0 million
         from financial institutions to finance a major portion of its home
         inventory at the Company's retail superstores. These facilities are
         secured by a portion of the Company's home inventory and cash in
         transit from financial institutions. Interest rates range from prime
         (8.50% at June 26, 1998) to prime minus .50%. The Company had $107.1
         million and $79.6 million outstanding on these floor plan credit
         facilities at June 26, 1998 and March 27, 1998, respectively.


                                                                               4
<PAGE>   6


6.       Line of Credit

         The Company has a $25.0 million unsecured revolving line of credit from
         a financial institution for general corporate purposes. The line of
         credit bears interest, at the option of the Company (under certain
         conditions), at either the LIBOR rate plus .625% or the prime rate
         minus 1%. The line of credit contains provisions regarding minimum net
         worth requirements and certain indebtedness limitations which would
         limit the amount available for future borrowings. The line of credit
         also requires an annual commitment fee of $20,000 and is available
         through July 10, 1999. The Company had zero and $17.0 million
         outstanding on this line of credit on June 26, 1998 and March 27, 1998,
         respectively.

7.       Reclassification

         Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the
         current period presentation.

8.       Financial Services Revenue Recognition

         The Company has adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.
         125 (SFAS 125) "Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial
         Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities," which became effective
         after December 31, 1996. SFAS 125 modifies the Company's accounting
         policies for the origination and sale of loan contracts through
         CountryPlace Mortgage, Ltd. ("CountryPlace"), the Company's finance
         subsidiary. CountryPlace sells the loan contracts to national consumer
         finance companies and retains a residual interest in the interest
         generated by the sold contracts. The fair value of the residual
         interest is determined using a number of market based assumptions. The
         gain on the sale of these contracts is included in revenues net of any
         estimated credit losses. The effect of SFAS 125 on prior periods was
         not material. The Company also recognizes income from the sale of
         property and casualty insurance policies.

THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 26, 1998 COMPARED TO THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 27, 1997

       NET SALES. Net sales increased 28.3% to $204.1 million in the first
quarter of fiscal 1999 from $159.1 million in the first quarter of fiscal 1998.
Of this increase, 25.2% was the result of an increase in manufactured housing
sales and 3.1% was the result of an increase in financial services income. The
increase in manufactured housing sales was primarily due to a 54.0% increase in
the volume of homes sold through Company-owned retail superstores. The Company
had 99 superstores at the end of the first quarter of fiscal 1999 compared to 59
at the end of the first quarter of fiscal 1998. The increase in financial
services income was primarily due to an increase in the gain on the sale of
loans in which CountryPlace Mortgage, Ltd., the Company's finance subsidiary,
retains a residual interest. See "Financial Services Revenue Recognition" in
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

       GROSS PROFIT. Gross profit increased 41.4% to $57.3 million in the
quarter ended June 26, 1998 compared to $40.5 million in the quarter ended June
27, 1997. During the same period, gross profit margin as a percentage of net
sales increased to 28.1% compared to 25.5%. This increase was the result of
selling 59% of the Company's homes through Company-owned retail superstores in
the first quarter of fiscal 1999 versus 52% in the first quarter of fiscal 1998
and production efficiencies at manufacturing facilities.

       SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES. Selling, general and
administrative expenses increased 41.1% to $38.9 million in the quarter ended
June 26, 1998 from $27.6 million in the quarter ended June 27, 1997, primarily
due to increased promotion and advertising expenditures, expenses associated
with the 40 additional retail superstores, and performance based compensation
expense. As a percentage of net sales, selling, general and administrative
expenses increased, as planned, to 19.1% in the first quarter of fiscal 1999
from 17.3% in the


                                                                               7
<PAGE>   9

first quarter of fiscal 1998. This planned increase is due to the growth in the
Company's retail operations which, generally, have higher selling, general and
administrative expenses as a percentage of net sales as compared to wholesale
operations.

       INCOME FROM OPERATIONS. As a result of the foregoing factors, income from
operations increased 41.8% to $18.4 million in the quarter ended June 26, 1998
compared to $13.0 million in the quarter ended June 27, 1997.

       INTEREST EXPENSE. Interest expense increased 115.5% to $2.3 million for
the first quarter of fiscal 1999 from $1.0 million in the first quarter of
fiscal 1998. This increase was primarily due to an increase in floor plan credit
facilities.

       OTHER INCOME. Other income increased 32.1% to $0.68 million in the first
quarter of fiscal 1999 from $0.52 million in the first quarter of fiscal 1998.
This increase was primarily the result of additional interest earned on cash
used for investments.

       LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES. The Company has floor plan credit
facilities totaling $170.0 million from financial institutions to finance a
major portion of its home inventory at the Company's retail superstores. These
facilities are secured by a portion of the Company's home inventory and cash in
transit from financial institutions. Interest rates range from prime (8.50% at
June 26, 1998) to prime minus .50%. The Company had $107.1 million and $79.6
million outstanding on these credit facilities at June 26, 1998 and March 27,
1998, respectively. The Company has obtained a $25.0 million unsecured revolving
line of credit from a financial institution for general corporate purposes. The
line of credit bears interest, at the option of the Company (under certain
conditions), at either the LIBOR rate plus .625% or the prime rate minus 1%. The
line of credit contains provisions regarding minimum net worth requirements and
certain indebtedness limitations which would limit the amount available for
future borrowings. The line of credit also requires an annual commitment fee of
$20,000 and is available through July 10, 1999. The Company had zero and $17.0
million outstanding on this line of credit at June 26, 1998 and March 27, 1998,
respectively.

       The Company believes that cash flow from operations, together with floor
plan financing and the revolving line of credit, will be adequate to support its
working capital and currently planned capital expenditure needs in the
foreseeable future. The Company may, from time to time, obtain additional floor
plan financing for its retail inventories. Such practice is customary in the
industry. The Company is also considering other various sources of financing
including, but not limited to, a private placement of debt. However, because
future cash flows and the availability of financing will depend on a number of
factors, including prevailing economic and financial conditions, business and
other factors beyond the Company's control, no assurances can be given in this
regard.


       FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION. Certain statements contained in this report
are forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the
Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.
Management is unaware of any trends or conditions that could have a material
adverse effect on the Company's consolidated financial position, future results
of operations or liquidity. However, investors should also be aware of 


                                                                               8

factors which could have a negative impact on prospects and the consistency of
progress. These include political, economic or other factors such as inflation
rates, recessionary or expansive trends, taxes and regulations and laws
affecting the business in each of the Company's markets; competitive product,
advertising, promotional and pricing activity; dependence on the rate of
development and degree of acceptance of new product introductions in the
marketplace; and the difficulty of forecasting sales at certain times in certain
markets.
