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 31, 2000. Results of
operations for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of
results to be expected for a full year.

3. Other Assets
Other assets include goodwill of $67.7 million at September 29, 2000
and $67.6 million at March 31, 2000, with accumulated amortization of
$12.8 million and $10.8 million, respectively.
4. Floor Plan Payable
As of September 11, 2000, the Company entered into a floor plan credit
facility with a financial institution for $75.0 million and thus, as of
September 29, 2000, has floor plan credit facilities totaling $250.0
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
receivables from financial institutions. The interest rates on the
facilities are prime (9.50% at September 29, 2000). The Company expects
to reduce the credit facilities by approximately $110.0 million during
the third quarter of fiscal 2001. The Company had $135.9 million and
$138.6 million outstanding on these floor plan credit facilities at
September 29, 2000 and March 31, 2000, respectively.
The Company's floor plan financing agreements permit the Company to
earn interest on investments made with the financial institutions,
which can be withdrawn without any imposed restrictions. One agreement
allows the Company to invest up to fifty percent of the floor plan
balance provided that the net of the floor plan balance and investment
balance does not fall below $60.0 million. The other agreement allows
the Company to invest up to 25% of the outstanding amount owed to the
financial institution. Interest rates earned on the amounts invested
range from prime (9.50% at September 29, 2000) to prime minus 0.50%.
The Company had $47.0 million invested at March 31, 2000 (none at
September 29, 2000), and has
4
<PAGE> 6
classified this amount as Cash and Cash Equivalents in the accompanying
Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.
5. 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 (6.81% at September 29, 2000)
plus .625% or the prime rate (9.50% at September 29, 2000) minus 1.0%.
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 is available
through June 27, 2001 and requires an annual commitment fee of up to
$12,500. The Company had no amounts outstanding on the line of credit
at September 29, 2000 and March 31, 2000.
6. Business Segment Information
The Company operates primarily in three business segments, retail
sales, manufacturing and financial services. The following table
summarizes information with respect to the Company's business segments
for the periods ending September 29, 2000 and September 24, 1999 (in

PART I. FINANCIAL INFORMATION
Item 1. Financial Statements
See pages 1 through 5.
Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
and Results of Operations
The industry continues to be intensely competitive. Tightened credit standards,
coupled with increased interest rates, have resulted in reduced retail sales
levels and declining margins for most industry participants. Additionally,
business conditions have resulted in a considerable contraction of industry-wide
manufacturing capacity. Industry shipments through August were down 25% from a
year ago, and it seems likely that further declines will be recorded at least
through the end of this year. Sales have definitely been affected in this
intensely competitive environment, and difficult year-to-year comparisons are
likely to persist at least through the remainder of the fiscal year.
The Company has cash and cash equivalents of $61.5 million after investing over
$20 million in the Company's stock buyback program and virtually no long-term
debt. In addition, the Company continues to control inventory levels with the
average new home inventory per retail superstore averaging $790,000 per
location, a decline of approximately $100,000, or 10%, compared to the year
earlier period. Gross margin remains stable at 32.5%.
The following table sets forth certain items of the Company's statement of
income as a percentage of net sales for the period indicated.

THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 29, 2000 COMPARED TO THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER
24, 1999
NET SALES. Net sales decreased 9.2% to $175.8 million in the three
months ended September 29, 2000 from $193.7 million in the three months ended
September 24,1999. The decrease in net sales was primarily due to competitive
conditions in the manufactured housing industry as indicated by a decrease of
14% in the volume of homes sold through Company-owned superstores while overall
unit volume, which includes sales to independent retailers, declined 20% in the
current quarter. This decline in volume is somewhat offset by an increase in the
average selling price of a new home, which resulted from a continued shift in
product mix towards multi-section homes. Currently, 82% of the homes
manufactured by the Company are multi-section. The number of superstores
increased from 129 at the end of the second quarter of fiscal 2000 to 137 at the
end of the second quarter of fiscal 2001.
GROSS PROFIT. For the quarter ended September 29, 2000, gross profit
decreased 10.2% to $57.1 million, which is consistent with the 9.2% decrease in
net sales. For the quarter ended September 29, 2000, gross profit margin as a
percentage of net sales remained stable at 32.5% compared to 32.8% for the
quarter ended September 24, 1999. The Company sold 84% of its homes through
Company-owned retail superstores in the second quarter of fiscal 2001 versus 78%
in the second quarter of fiscal 2000.
SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES. Selling, general and
administrative expenses decreased 5.3% to $44.0 million in the quarter ended
September 29, 2000 from $46.5 million in the quarter ended September 24, 1999,
primarily due to the Company's continued focus on reducing fixed expenses
company-wide somewhat offset by a commitment to building brand awareness via
advertising and expenses associated with the opening of 8 additional retail
superstores. As a percentage of net sales, selling, general and administrative
expenses increased, as planned, to 25.0% in the second quarter of fiscal 2001
from 24.0% in the second quarter of fiscal 2000. This 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.
7
<PAGE> 9
INTEREST EXPENSE. Interest expense increased 31.6% to $3.2 million for
the second quarter of fiscal 2001 from $2.4 million in the second quarter of
fiscal 2000 primarily due to an increase in the prime interest rate from 8.25%
in the second quarter of fiscal 2000 to 9.50% in the second quarter of fiscal
2001.
SIX MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 29, 2000 COMPARED TO SIX MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 24,
1999
NET SALES. Net sales decreased 11.2% to $365.9 million in the six
months ended September 29, 2000 from $412.3 million in the six months ended
September 24,1999. The decrease in net sales was primarily due to competitive
conditions in the manufactured housing industry as indicated by a decrease of
14% in the volume of homes sold through Company-owned superstores while overall
unit volume, which includes sales to independent retailers, declined 22% in the
first two quarters of fiscal 2001 compared to the first two quarters of fiscal
2000. This decline in volume is somewhat offset by an increase in the average
selling price of a new home, which resulted from a continued shift in product
mix towards multi-section homes. Currently, 82% of the homes manufactured by the
Company are multi-section. The number of Company-owned retail superstores
increased from 129 at the end of the second quarter of fiscal 2000 to 137 at the
end of the second quarter of fiscal 2001.
GROSS PROFIT. Gross profit decreased 11.3% to $116.2 million, which is
consistent with the 11.2% decrease in net sales. During the same period, gross
profit margin as a percentage of net sales remained constant at 31.8%. The
Company sold 83% of its homes through Company-owned retail superstores in the
six months ended September 29, 2000 versus 74% in the six months ended September
24, 1999.
SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES. Selling, general and
administrative expenses decreased 4.9% to $89.0 million in the six months ended
September 29, 2000 from $93.6 million in the six months ended September 24,
1999, primarily due to the Company's continued focus on reducing fixed expenses
company-wide somewhat offset by a commitment to building brand awareness via
advertising and expenses associated with the 8 additional retail superstores. As
a percentage of net sales, selling, general and administrative expenses
increased, as planned, to 24.3% in the six months ended September 29, 2000 from
22.7% in the six months ended September 24, 1999. This 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.
INTEREST EXPENSE. Interest expense increased 28.9% to $6.2 million in
the six months ended September 29, 2000 primarily due to an increase in the
prime interest rate from an average of 8% in the first two quarters of fiscal
2000 to 9.5% in the first two quarters of fiscal 2001.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES. The Company has a floor plan credit
facility totaling $175.0 million with Conseco Finance, a subsidiary of Conseco,
Inc., to finance a major portion of its home inventory at the Company's retail
superstores. This facility is secured by a portion of the Company's home
inventory and receivables from financial institutions. The interest rate on the
facility is prime (9.50% at September 29, 2000). The agreement is effective
until June 30, 2001. As of September 11, 2000, the Company entered into a floor
plan credit facility with Deutsche for $75.0 million. This agreement has
substantially the same terms as the agreement with Conseco. The Company expects
to reduce the Conseco facility by approximately $110.0 million during the third
quarter of fiscal 2001. The Company's floor plan financing agreements permit the
Company to earn interest on investments made
8
<PAGE> 10
with the financial institutions, which can be withdrawn without any imposed
restrictions. The agreement with Conseco allows the Company to invest up to
fifty percent of the floor plan balance provided that the net of the floor plan
balance and investment balance does not fall below $60.0 million. The agreement
with Deutsche allows the Company to invest up to 25% of the outstanding amount
owed to them.
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 (6.64% at September 29, 2000) plus 1.20% or the prime rate (9.50% at
September 29, 2000) minus 1.0%. 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 is available through
June 27, 2001 and requires an annual commitment fee of up to $12,500. The
Company had no amounts outstanding on the line of credit at September 29, 2000
and March 31, 2000.
Through CountryPlace Mortgage, the Company's finance subsidiary, the
Company assigns approved loan contracts to one of three national finance
companies. In January 2000, one of these companies, Associates Housing Finance,
announced that they would be discontinuing retail and floor plan financing for
the manufactured housing industry. The Company does, however, have a contract
through March 31, 2002 with the Associates and they have committed to providing
consumer financing to the Company throughout the duration of the contract.
In July 1999, the Company's Board of Directors authorized, subject to
certain business and market conditions, the use of up to $20.0 million to
repurchase the Company's common stock. In July 2000, the Board of Directors
authorized another $20.0 million for common stock repurchases. As of the date of
this filing, the Company had invested $20.4 million in the common stock buyback
program.
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, currently planned capital expenditure needs and
future share repurchases 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. 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 21E of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Investors should be aware of 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.
