NOTE 1 Nature of Operations, Accounting Policies of Consolidated Financial Statements
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 August 31, 2008, in addition to the consolidated results of operations and consolidated cash flows for the three-month periods ended August 31, 2008 and 2007. Due to the seasonal nature of the Corporation’s business, interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for the entire year.
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 audited consolidated balance sheet as of May 31, 2008 and the unaudited 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.
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined under the first-in, first-out method. Physical inventory counts are taken at the end of each reporting quarter.
Total inventories consist of the following:
| August 31, 2008 | May 31, 2008 | |||||||
| (Dollars in thousands) | ||||||||
| Raw Materials | $ | 5,010 | $ | 4,897 | ||||

| Finished Goods | 314 | 202 | ||||||
| $ | 9,683 | $ | 10,150 | |||||
The Corporation provides the retail purchaser of its manufactured homes with a full fifteen-month warranty against defects in design, materials and workmanship. Recreational vehicles are covered by a one-year warranty. The warranties are backed by service departments located at the Corporation’s manufacturing facilities and an extensive field service system.

Estimated warranty costs are accrued at the time of sale based upon current sales, historical experience and management’s judgment regarding anticipated rates of warranty claims. The adequacy of the recorded warranty liability is periodically assessed and the amount is adjusted as necessary.
A reconciliation of accrued warranty and related expenses is as follows:

| (Dollars in thousands) | ||||||||

| Settlements made during the period | (1,521 | ) | (2,277 | ) | ||||
| Balance at the end of the period | 8,695 | 10,750 | ||||||
| Non-current balance included in other deferred liabilities | 2,900 | 3,300 | ||||||
| Accrued warranty and related expenses | $ | 5,795 | $ | 7,450 | ||||
The Corporation was contingently liable at August 31, 2008 under purchase agreements with certain financial institutions providing inventory financing for retailers of its products.
Under these arrangements, which are customary in the manufactured housing and recreational vehicle industries, the Corporation agrees to repurchase units in the event of default by the retailer at declining prices over the term of the agreement, generally 12 months.
The maximum repurchase liability is the total amount that would be paid upon the default of the Corporation’s independent dealers. The maximum potential repurchase liability, without reduction for the resale value of the repurchased units, was approximately $56 million at August 31, 2008 and approximately $70 million at May 31, 2008.
The risk of loss under these agreements is spread over many retailers and financial institutions. The loss, if any, under these agreements is the difference between the repurchase cost and the resale value of the units.
The Corporation believes that any potential loss under the agreements in effect at August 31, 2008 will not be material to its financial position or results of operations.

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.
In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.157, “Fair Value Measurements” (SFAS No. 157). This statement establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. On February 12, 2008, FASB issued Staff Position No. 157-2, which delays the effective date of SFAS No. 157 for non-financial assets and non-financial liabilities except for items that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a recurring basis. The Corporation adopted both pronouncements with no material impact to its financial position or results of operations.
Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.

Overview
The Corporation designs, produces and distributes manufactured housing (single-section, multi-section and modular homes) and towable recreational vehicles (travel trailers, fifth wheels and park models) to independent dealers and manufactured housing communities located throughout the United States (U.S.). To better serve the needs of its dealers and communities, the Corporation has seventeen manufacturing facilities in ten states. Manufactured housing and recreational vehicles are sold to dealers and communities either through floor plan financing with various financial institutions or on a cash basis. While the Corporation maintains production of manufactured homes and recreational vehicles throughout the year, seasonal fluctuations in sales do occur. Sales and production of manufactured homes are affected by winter weather conditions at the Corporation’s northern plants. Recreational vehicle sales are generally higher in the spring and summer months than in the fall and winter months.
Sales in both business segments are affected by the strength of the U.S. economy, interest rate levels, consumer confidence and the availability of wholesale and retail financing. The manufactured housing segment is currently affected by a protracted downturn. This downturn, caused primarily by restrictive credit standards, decreased availability of retail and wholesale financing, and economic uncertainty resulted in calendar 2007 industry sales of approximately 96,000 units, the lowest since 1961. In addition, the Manufactured Housing Institute’s latest data shows industry unit sales for the first eight months of calendar 2008 are 10 percent lower than the same period in 2007.
Manufactured housing sales are also negatively impacted by a recession in the site-built housing industry. For example, a potential buyer of a manufactured home may be prevented from purchasing due to an inability to sell his or her existing home. Likewise, a potential buyer of a manufactured home may be attracted to declining prices of both new and existing site-built homes. The site-built industry is presently experiencing declining existing home sales, housing starts and home prices. In addition, the industry is also hindered by increasing home foreclosures.
In the first quarter of fiscal 2009, the Corporation’s manufactured housing segment had geographic markets where sales either declined consistent with the experience of the industry or declined less than the experience of the industry. There were, however, certain markets where the Corporation’s unit sales declined at a greater rate than the industry.
In the recreational vehicle segment, the Corporation sells travel trailers, fifth wheels and park models. Sales of recreational vehicles are influenced by changes in consumer confidence, the availability of retail financing, and gasoline prices. Industry sales of travel trailers, fifth wheels and park models, as published by the Recreational Vehicle Industry Association and the Recreational Park Trailer Industry Association, Inc., declined from approximately 291,000 units in calendar 2006 to approximately 268,000 units in calendar 2007. In addition, the latest industry data shows sales of travel trailers and fifth wheels for the first eight months of 2008 are 18 percent lower than the same period in 2007. Throughout 2007 and 2008, the price of gasoline rose, the availability of retail financing decreased and consumer confidence fell. For the first quarter of fiscal 2009, recreational vehicle unit sales declined consistent with the towable segment of the industry.

Overview — (Continued)
In light of the declining market, a manufactured housing facility in Ephrata, Pennsylvania was consolidated with the manufactured housing facility located in Leola, Pennsylvania. In addition, a consolidation of sales and administrative personnel occurred at the Corporation’s two manufactured housing facilities in Ocala, Florida.
The Corporation encountered a challenging business environment in fiscal 2009’s first quarter, and it cannot determine with certainty the business environment for the remainder of the fiscal year. The Corporation will continue to monitor its expenses, communicate with dealer and communities to take advantage of sales opportunities, and positioning its products to be competitive in the marketplace. With a healthy position in cash and U.S. Treasury Bills, no debt and experienced employees, the Corporation is prepared to meet the challenges ahead.

Manufactured housing unit sales decreased approximately 34 percent, while the industry during the June to August 2008 timeframe decreased approximately 17 percent. In certain geographic markets, unit sales decreased similar to the experience of the industry or decreased at a rate less than the industry. There were, however, markets where unit sales declined at a greater rate than the overall industry. Adverse conditions that affected unit sales to these markets include:
| • | sales strength in geographic areas where the Corporation has minimal presence due to the location of its manufacturing facilities |

| • | competitors owning retail sales centers, giving them an advantage in displaying their product | ||
| • | decreased sales to manufactured housing communities as a result of the communities managing inventory levels | ||
| • | changing consumer preference toward product with lower price points which the Corporation has limited models. |
In addressing these conditions, the Corporation is working with the communities as they manage inventory levels, and developing product with lower price points that will meet consumer demand.
Recreational vehicle sales decreased due to an overall softening of demand. Unit sales for travel trailers and fifth wheels declined approximately 34 percent, while industry unit sales for the period from June to August 2008 compared to the same period in 2007 decreased approximately 33 percent. Current industry unit sales data for park models is not available.

Manufactured housing cost of sales decreased due to less sales volume and the variable nature of many of the direct manufacturing costs. As a percentage of sales, cost of sales increased as a result of material cost increases and certain manufacturing overhead costs remaining relatively constant despite lower sales. The Corporation raised prices on its manufactured housing product in response to the rise in material cost, but was unable to fully realize the increase by the end of the fiscal quarter. In addition, this segment incurred a one-time charge of approximately $100,000 associated with the consolidation of the two Pennsylvania facilities.
Recreational vehicle cost of sales decreased due to less sales volume and the variable nature of many direct manufacturing costs. As a percentage of sales, cost of sales increased due to certain manufacturing overhead costs remaining relatively constant despite lower sales.

Selling and administrative expenses decreased due to a decrease in salaries, performance based compensation, a continuing effort to control costs and a change in the valuation of the Corporation’s liability for retirement and death benefits offered to certain employees. As a percentage of sales, selling and administrative expenses increased due to certain costs being fixed. In addition, costs of approximately $300,000 were incurred related to consolidate the two Pennsylvania facilities, and to consolidate sales and administrative personnel at the two Florida facilities.

This segment was also negatively affected by the cost of consolidations in both Pennsylvania and Florida, and single-section unit sales increasing from 21 percent, as a percentage of segment sales, in the first quarter of fiscal 2008 to 30 percent in the first quarter of fiscal 2009. Single-section homes have lower margins as compared to multi-section homes.

Results of Operations — Three-Month Period Ended August 31, 2008 Compared to the Three-Month Period Ended August 31, 2007 (Unaudited) — (Continued)
The operating loss for recreational vehicles increased primarily due to the impact of decreased sales on the components of earnings as noted above. In addition, the operating loss was negatively impacted by this segment receiving a larger proportion of certain operating expenses allocated to industry segments based on a percentage of sales. Recreational vehicle sales were approximately 28 percent in the first quarter of fiscal 2009 as compared to 25 percent in the first quarter of fiscal 2008.
The decrease in general corporate expenses occurred primarily due to a change in valuation of the Corporation’s liability for retirement and death benefits offered to certain employees as noted above.

Interest income is directly related to the amount available for investment and the prevailing yields of U.S. Government Securities. In the first quarter of fiscal 2009, the weighted average amount available for investment was approximately $94 million with a weighted average yield of 1.7 percent. In the first quarter of fiscal 2008, the weighted average amount available for investment was approximately $113 million with a weighted average yield of 4.9 percent.

The (benefit) 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. The benefit for federal and state income is the result of a pretax loss that occurred in the first quarter of fiscal 2009.

| Working capital | $ | 127,130 | $ | 132,594 | $ | 5,464 | ||||||
The Corporation’s policy is to invest its excess cash, which exceeds its operating needs, in U.S. Government Securities. Cash and U.S. Treasury Bills decreased due to a net loss of $4,146,000, and payment of approximately $1,511,000 in dividends. Current assets, exclusive of cash and U.S. Treasury Bills, declined primarily due to a decrease in accounts receivable of $2,544,000. This decrease is attributed to lower sales in August 2008 as compared to May 2008. Other current assets increased $2,275,000 primarily due to an increase in the deferred tax asset for federal income taxes.
Current liabilities decreased due to a $620,000 decline in other accrued liabilities, caused primarily by the timing and amount of payroll withholding taxes at August 31, 2008 as compared to May 31, 2008.
Capital expenditures totaled $239,000 for the three months ended August 31, 2008 as compared to $677,000 in the comparable period of the previous year. Capital expenditures were made primarily to replace or refurbish machinery and equipment in addition to improving manufacturing efficiencies.
The cash provided by operating activities, along with current cash and other short-term investments, 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.
Other Matters
The provision for federal income taxes in each year approximates the statutory rate and for state income taxes reflects current state rates effective for the period based upon activities within the taxable entities.
In the first quarter of fiscal 2009, the Corporation adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157 and Financial Accounting Standards Board Staff Position No. 157-2 with no material effect on its financial position or results of operations.

Other Matters — (Continued)
The consolidated financial statements included in this report reflect transactions in the dollar values in which they were incurred and, therefore, do not attempt to measure the impact of inflation. On a long-term basis, the Corporation has demonstrated an ability to adjust selling prices in reaction to changing costs due to inflation. During the first quarter of fiscal 2009, however, the Corporation was unable to fully realize raised selling prices on its manufactured housing product following an increase in material costs.

| Item 3. | Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk. | |
The Corporation invests in United States Government Securities. These securities are typically held until maturity and are therefore classified as held-to-maturity and carried at amortized cost. Changes in interest rates do not have a significant effect on the fair value of these investments.

| Item 4. | Controls and Procedures. | |
Management’s Conclusions Regarding Effectiveness of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
As of August 31, 2008, the Corporation conducted an evaluation, under the supervision and participation of management including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the Corporation’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934).
Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Corporation’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective for the period ended August 31, 2008.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
No change in the Corporation’s internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(f)) occurred during the first quarter ended August 31, 2008 that materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Corporation’s internal control over financial reporting.
PART II. Other Information
| Item 1. | Legal Proceedings. | |
Information with respect to this Item for the period covered by this Form 10-Q has been reported in Item 3, entitled “Legal Proceedings” of the Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2008 filed by the registrant with the Commission.
| Item 1A. | Risk Factors. | |
As noted in Part I. Item 2, manufactured housing sales were negatively affected by vertically integrated competitors, manufactured housing communities buying fewer homes in order to manage its existing inventory, and consumer demand shifting toward lower priced models. Continuation of these events could have a negative impact on the Corporation’s sales, operating results, financial position and cash flows.
