ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Cautionary Statement: The Company's Reports on Form 10-K and Form 10-Q, its Current Reports on Form 8-K, and any other written or oral statements made by or on behalf of the Company contain or may contain statements relating to future events, including results of operations, that are considered "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements represent the Company's expectations or belief as to future events and, by their very nature, are subject to risks and uncertainties which may result in actual events differing materially from those anticipated. In particular, future operating results will be affected by the level of demand for recreational vehicles, manufactured housing and hotel/motel accommodati ons, the general economic conditions, the Company’s ability to retain or replace its line-of-credit, interest rate fluctuations, the availability of consumer credit, availability of floor-plan credit for recreational vehicle and manufactured housing retail dealers, availability of financing for manufacturers, fuel prices, competitive products and pricing pressures within the Company's markets, the Company's ability to contain its manufacturing costs and expenses, and other factors. Any forward-looking statements by the Company speak only as of the date made, and the Company undertakes no obligation to update or revise such statements to reflect events or circumstances after such date or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.

FINANCIAL CONDITION

The Company’s financial ratios changed as illustrated below.

	October 2, 2010	January 2, 2010
Current Ratio	0.81:1	0.96:1
Quick Ratio	0.44:1	0.56:1
Funded Debt to Total Capital	27.1%	27.7%
Working Capital	$(929,868)	$(192,595)

On April 20, 2010 the Company entered into a loan agreement with Crestmark Bank (Crestmark).  The agreement provides up to $2,000,000 of borrowing availability to be repaid on a demand basis and is secured by the Company’s accounts receivable and inventory and their products and proceeds.  Crestmark will advance up to 85% of the eligible accounts receivable.  The term of the agreement is two years.  The available funds will be used for working capital requirements of the Company.  The interest rate on borrowed funds will be prime plus 3.50%, but will not be lower than 6.75%.  Fees include a one percent commitment fee, payable monthly, and a maintenance fee equal to the greater of .4% of the aver age monthly loan balance or $2,500.  The Company will also be responsible for other fees associated with the facility.  The Company must maintain a tangible net worth of not less than $5,000,000 and its working capital ratio, excluding its debt to Wachovia Bank, must not be less than 1.20:1.  At October 2, 2010 the tangible net worth was $6,021,454 and the current ratio, excluding the Wachovia debt, was 2.16:1.  The Company has not borrowed against this facility to date, but will utilize this facility for its working capital needs going forward.

ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)

The loan balance with Wells Fargo Bank (formerly Wachovia Bank) was $3,113,640 at October 2, 2010.  Wells Fargo no longer provides working capital to the Company.  This loan is collateralized by five of the Company’s properties, three of which are vacant and not being utilized by the Company, and matures on December 31, 2010.  The Company reached an agreement in principle with Wells Fargo on November 23, 2010 to modify the loan agreement.  This will be the second loan modification of the loan agreement. Wells Fargo and the Company will work together to sell the three vacant properties collateralizing the loan with the proceeds from these sales reducing the loan balance. The remaining loan balance, but not more than $400,000 (the New Loan Balance), will be extended to December 31, 2015.  The Company will have principal payments of $40,000 per year with a balloon payment of $200,000 due on December 31, 2015.  Interest on the loan will be at prime plus 1.00% and will accrue only on the New Loan Balance beginning January 1, 2011.  Principal and interest will be paid monthly.  As a result of this modification agreement the Company will recognize a reserve charge of $419,000 in the fourth quarter.  This charge represents the difference between the net book value of the “Properties held for sale” and the reduction in the loan balance that Wells Fargo has agreed to make in exchange for the three vacant properties if they are not sold by December 31, 2011 or if they are sold for less than $2,700,000.

Days Sales Outstanding (DSO) in accounts receivable were 26.0 days at October 2, 2010 compared to 30.6 days and 41.3 days at January 2, 2010 and October 3, 2009, respectively.  Net accounts receivable was $1,059,174 at October 2, 2010, compared to $1,164,669 and $2,104,868 at January 2, 2010 and October 3, 2009, respectively.  The decrease in accounts receivable compared to October 3, 2009 is due to the reduced sales volumes in the current year.

Inventories were $1,858,678 at October 2, 2010, as compared to $2,107,151 and $2,035,993 at January 2, 2010 and October 3, 2009, respectively.  The inventory declines are due to lower sales volume.

Capital expenditures were $299,641 for the first nine months of 2010, compared to $109,144 for the same period of the prior year.  Included in the 2010 capital expenditures is approximately $290,000 for the capitalization of a software modification project.  Capital expenditures over the remainder of the year will be nominal.

Net sales for the Third Quarter 2010 were $3,604,527, compared to $4,493,365 for the same period in the previous year, a 19.8% decrease.  Sales to the Company’s recreational vehicle customers increased 15.5% in Third Quarter 2010 when compared to the same period of the prior year.  This increase is net of the discontinued sewn products for the RV industry.  The recreational vehicle industry reported a 19.1% increase in shipments during the Third Quarter 2010 compared to the same period of the prior year.  Sales to the Company’s manufactured housing customers decreased 15.8% in Third Quarter 2010 when compared to the same period of the prior year.  The manufactured housing industry showed a 1.0% increase in shipments during the Third Quarter 2010 compared to the same period of the prior year.  The decline in our manufactured housing sales is the result of our customer s using less of our product in each unit and using lower priced products. Sales to the Company’s hospitality customers decreased 34.5% in the Third Quarter 2010 when compared to the same period of the prior year.  The decline in hospitality sales is a result of lower levels of activity for both new construction and refurbishment of hospitality properties.

Cost of products sold increased to 79.0% of net sales in the Third Quarter 2010 compared to 78.6% of net sales a year ago, due to allocating the fixed cost component over a lower sales volume.

ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)

Selling and administrative expenses were $1,234,561 in the Third Quarter 2010 versus $1,473,987 in the Third Quarter 2009.  The reduction in this expense of $239,426 was due to reductions in staff and compensation as well as fees related to the modification of the Wachovia loan agreement in 2009.  The percentage of selling and administrative expenses to net sales increased from 32.8% in the Third Quarter 2009 to 34.2% in the Third Quarter 2010.

Net loss was $321,012 in the Third Quarter 2010 compared to net loss of $468,527 in the Third Quarter 2009.  The decrease in the loss was due to the reduction in selling and administrative expense, which was somewhat offset by the 20% decrease in net sales.

Net sales for the First Nine Months 2010 were $12,324,181, compared to $15,276,398 for the same period in the previous year, a 19.3% decrease.  Sales to the Company’s recreational vehicle customers increased 53.4% in the First Nine Months 2010 when compared to the same period of the prior year.  This increase is net of the discontinued sewn products for the RV industry.  The recreational vehicle industry reported an 59.8% increase in shipments during the first nine months of 2010 compared to the same period of the prior year.  Sales to the Company’s manufactured housing customers decreased 11.1% in the First Nine Months 2010 when compared to the same period of the prior year.  The manufactured housing industry showed an 5.6% increase in shipments during the First Nine Months 2010 compared to the same period of the prior year.  Sales to the Company’s hospitality customers decreased 37.9% in the First Nine Months 2010 when compared to the same period of the prior year.  The decline in hospitality sales is a result of lower levels of activity for both new construction and refurbishment of hospitality existing properties.

Cost of products sold decreased to 78.4% of net sales in the First Nine Months 2010 compared to 80.9% of net sales a year ago, due to improved labor efficiencies, reduced overhead, and in the prior year, higher inventory obsolescence charges resulting from bankruptcies filed by Fleetwood Enterprises and Monaco Coach.

ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)

Selling and administrative expenses were $3,766,027 in the First Nine Months 2010 versus $5,793,628 in the First Nine Months 2009.  The expenses for the First Nine Months 2009 included charges of $900,000 related to the write-off of impaired assets and the closing of underperforming facilities.  Excluding the write-offs, selling and administrative expenses were $1,127,601 less in 2010 than in 2009.  The decrease was attributable to reductions in employees, compensation, benefits, commissions, and bad debt.  The percentage of selling and administrative expenses to net sales decreased from 37.9% for the First Nine Months 2009 to 30.6% for the First Nine Months 2010.

Net loss was $768,290 for the First Nine Months 2010, compared to a net loss of $2,125,637 for the First Nine Months 2009.  The reduction in the net loss was mostly attributable to the plant closing costs of $900,000 (pre-tax) recognized in 2009, but also to improved margins and reduced selling and administrative costs.  The improvement was achieved despite a 19% reduction in net sales

EBITDA

EBITDA represents income before income taxes, interest expense, depreciation and amortization and is an approximation of cash flow from operations before tax.  The Company uses EBITDA as an internal measure of performance and believes it is a useful and commonly used measure of financial performance in addition to income before taxes and other profitability measures under U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”).

EBITDA is not a measure of performance under GAAP.  EBITDA should not be construed as an alternative to operating income and income before taxes as an indicator of the Company’s operations in accordance with GAAP.  Nor is EBITDA an alternative to cash flow from operating activities in accordance with GAAP.  The Company’s definition of EBITDA can differ from that of other companies.

The following table reconciles Net Income, the most comparable measure under GAAP, to EBITDA for the thirteen and thirty-nine week periods ended October 2, 2010 and October 3, 2009:

	For the Thirteen Weeks Ended						For the Thirty-Nine Weeks Ended

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1A.   RISK FACTORS

The Company is providing the following risk factors although, as a Smaller Reporting Company, the company is not required to provide risk factors.  Additional risks are noted in the first paragraph of Part I, Item 2, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.”  The following risk factors should not be considered an all-inclusive list of the risks applicable to the Company and/or its Common Stock.

1.Lack of Active Trading Market for the Common Stock.  As a cost-saving measure, the Company is in the process of delisting the Common Stock from the NYSE Amex and deregistering it from the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.  If we are able to complete the delisting and deregistration, the stock may be listed only on the “pink sheets” and the Company will no longer be filing financial or other reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or complying with its proxy r ules.  Consequently, it is likely that the number of potential purchasers of the stock will be significantly reduced, as will the number of brokers who trade the stock.  We expect that these conditions will adversely affect the liquidity and possibly the market price of the stock.

2.Declining Sales.  Company net sales have declined over the years from $46 million in fiscal 2007 to $39.6 million in fiscal 2008 and $18.6 million in fiscal 2009.  Net sales for the first three fiscal quarters of this year declined to $12.3 million in fiscal 2010 from $15.3 million in fiscal 2009.  These declines are primarily the result of downturns in the markets we serve and the fact t hat two of our largest customers have filed in bankruptcy.  While there are signs of improvement in these markets, particularly in the market for recreational vehicles, or at least stabilization, there can be no assurance that our future sales will increase to the level necessary for the Company to operate at a profit.

3.Operating Losses.  Commensurate with the declining sales, the Company has experienced significant operating losses over the past four years which continued into fiscal 2010.  The net losses for fiscal 2007, 2008 and 2009 were $807,509, $2,585,487 and $3,037,560, respectively, and the net loss for the first three fiscal quarters of 2010 was $768,290.  These losses were the result of the declining sales and overhead expenses which could not be reduced as quickly as the sales decline.  While there are indications that sales may improve in the future, and the Company has taken steps to reduce expenses, there is no assurance that the Company will operate at a profit in the future.  See “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.”
