Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
For the nine-month period ended February 28, 2002

NOTE 1  Nature of Operations and Accounting Policies

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 February 28, 2002, the
consolidated results of operations for the three-month and nine-month periods
ended February 28, 2002 and 2001, and the consolidated cash flows for the
nine-month periods ended February 28, 2002 and 2001.

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 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 cost, determined under the first-in, first-out
method, which is not in excess of market.  Physical inventory counts are taken
at the end of each reporting quarter.  At February 28, 2002, total inventories
consisted of raw materials, $4,306,000 work in process, $4,915,000, and
finished goods, $298,000.  At May 31, 2001, total inventories consisted of raw
materials, $3,891,000, work in process, $5,098,000 and finished goods, $37,000.

The Corporation and its subsidiaries were contingently liable at February 28,
2002 under repurchase agreements with certain financial institutions.  Losses,
if any, are the difference between the repurchase cost and the resale value of
the units.  For the three-month and nine-month periods ended February 28, 2002,
the Corporation repurchased units in the amounts of $35,000 and $922,000, and
incurred net losses of $6,000 and $179,000, respectively.  For the same periods
in fiscal year 2001, the Corporation's repurchases amounted to $36,000 and
$1,834,000, and the net losses were $2,000 and $135,000.

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.

On April 19, 2001, the Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) of the Financial
Accounting Standards Board (FASB) reached a consensus on Issue Number 00-25,
"Vendor Income Statement Characterization of Consideration Paid to a Reseller
of the Vendor's Products".  This issue addresses the income statement
classification of consideration from a vendor to a reseller of the vendor's
product.  The Corporation will adopt Issue 00-25 in the fourth quarter of
fiscal 2002, and anticipates no material impact on the consolidated financial
statements.

Report of Independent Accountants

March 15, 2002

To The Board of Directors and Shareholders of Skyline Corporation

We have reviewed the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Skyline
Corporation and Subsidiary Companies as of February 28, 2002, and the related
consolidated statements of earnings and retained earnings for each of the
three-month and nine-month periods ended February 28, 2002 and 2001 and the
consolidated statement of cash flows for the nine-month periods ended February
28, 2002 and 2001.  These financial statements are the responsibility of the
Company's management.

We conducted our review in accordance with standards established by the
American Institute of Certified Public Accountants.  A review of interim
financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures to
financial data and making inquires of persons responsible for financial and
accounting matters.  It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted
in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, the objective of
which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken
as a whole.  Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.

Based on our review, we are not aware of any material modifications that should
be made to the accompanying consolidated interim financial information for it
to be in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United
States of America.

We previously audited in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted
in the United States of America, the consolidated balance sheet as of May 31,
2001, and the related consolidated statements of earnings and retained earnings
and of cash flows for the year then ended (not presented herein), and in our
report dated June 15, 2001 we expressed an unqualified opinion on those
consolidated financial statements.  In our opinion, the information set forth
in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of May 31, 2001,
is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the consolidated
balance sheet from which it has been derived.

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations

Results of Operations for the Current Quarter Compared to the Same Quarter
Last Year

Sales in the quarter ended February 28, 2002 were $96,080,000, an increase of
$5,242,000 from $90,838,000 in the comparable quarter of the prior year.
Fiscal 2002 sales through February 28 were $336,359,000, a decrease of
$7,538,000 from prior year's sales of $343,897,000.  Manufactured housing sales
for the third quarter totaled $74,317,000 compared to $66,894,000 at February
28, 2001.  Manufactured housing unit sales increased from 2,006 to 2,178.  This
segment's fiscal year sales were $261,424,000 versus $267,474,000, while unit
sales declined from 8,089 to 7,637.  Third quarter recreational vehicle sales
decreased from $23,944,000 in fiscal 2001 to $21,763,000 in fiscal 2002.
Recreational vehicle unit sales for the quarter declined from 1,756 to 1,525.
Fiscal year sales through February 28 were $74,935,000 versus $76,423,000.
Unit sales declined from 5,691 to 5,406.

Cost of sales in the third quarter of fiscal 2002 was 87.5 percent of sales
compared to 89.4 percent in fiscal 2001.  Cost of sales for the first nine
months of fiscal 2002 was 86.1 percent versus 87.5 percent in the prior year.
The decrease is primarily attributable to decreases in material costs,
particularly lumber and lumber related products, and to multi-section homes
being a greater percentage of total unit sales.  In the third quarter of
fiscal 2002, shipments of multi-section homes represented 42 percent of all
shipments versus prior year's 40 percent.  Multi-section home shipments for
fiscal 2002 were 44 percent of all shipments while fiscal 2001 multi-section
home shipments totaled 43 percent.

Quarterly selling and administrative expenses decreased from 13.1 percent in
fiscal 2001 to 11.8 percent in fiscal 2002.  Selling and administrative
expenses for fiscal 2002 totaled 10.9 percent while fiscal 2001 totaled 11.3
percent.  The decreases are attributable to the Corporation's effort to
control costs.

Third quarter operating earnings as a percentage of sales for manufactured
housing were 3.2 percent in fiscal 2002 versus a loss of .7 percent in the
prior year.  Year to date operating earnings were 5.5 percent in fiscal 2002
versus prior year's 3.0 percent.  Recreational vehicle quarterly operating loss
as a percentage of sales was 3.8 percent for fiscal year 2002 and fiscal year
2001.  The recreational vehicle fiscal year operating loss through February 28
increased from .9 percent to 1.3 percent.  Third quarter earnings for
manufactured housing improved due to increased sales and cost control versus
last year.  Fiscal year to date earnings for this business segment improved
due to cost control and improved gross margins.  Earnings for recreational
vehicles primarily declined as a result of continued difficult market
conditions.

Interest income amounted to $831,000 for the third quarter compared to prior
year's  $2,020,000.  Interest income is directly related to the amount
available for investment and the prevailing yields of U.S. Government
securities.

Results of Operations for the Current Quarter Compared to the Same Quarter
Last Year (continued)

Liquidity and Capital Resources

At February 28, 2002, cash and short-term investments in U. S. Treasury Bills
totaled $152,402,000, an increase of $35,987,000 from $116,415,000 at May 31,
2001.  Current assets exclusive of cash and investments in U.S. Treasury Bills
totaled $43,367,000 at February 28, 2002, a decrease of $29,724,000 from the
May 31, 2001 balance of $73,091,000.  The decrease was due to the maturity of
investments in U. S. Treasury Notes ($25,006,000), and a seasonal decrease in
accounts receivable ($5,135,000).

Current liabilities increased $2,661,000 from $39,915,000 at May 31, 2001 to
$42,576,000 at February 28, 2002.  Various factors contributed to the increase.
Accrued marketing programs increased $6,213,000 due to the timing of payments
for an ongoing marketing program.  Income taxes decreased $1,837,000 due to
the timing of federal income tax payments during the year.  Trade accounts
payable decreased $1,715,000 as a result of the seasonality of the
Corporation's business.

Working capital at February 28, 2002 amounted to $153,193,000 compared to
$149,591,000 at May 31, 2001.  Capital expenditures totaled $2,890,000 during
the first three quarters of fiscal 2002 compared to $1,822,000 in the previous
year.  Capital expenditures during the first nine months were made primarily
to increase manufacturing capacity, replace or refurbish machinery and
equipment, and improve 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.

On March 1, 2002, Conseco Finance Servicing Corporation, a national provider
of floor plan funding for industry dealer inventories, announced that effective
April 1, 2002 it will stop approving requests to fund purchases of additional
inventory for industry dealers.  For the nine-month period ended February 28,
2002, less than 10 percent of the Corporation's total sales were from
manufactured housing dealers who exclusively rely on Conseco for floor plan
financing.  The remaining manufactured housing dealers purchase inventory with
cash, or obtain financing from other wholesale lenders or local banks.  The
Corporation believes this will not have a material impact on the consolidated
financial statements.

Operations

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.

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.  However, the Corporation
believes that inflation has not had a material effect on its operations during
the past three years.  On a long-term basis, the Corporation has demonstrated
an ability to adjust the selling prices of its products in reaction to changing
costs due to inflation.

Forward Looking Information

Certain statements in this report are considered forward looking as indicated
by the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.  These statements

expectations as of the report date.  These uncertainties include but are not
limited to general economic conditions, interest rate levels, consumer
confidence, market demographics, competitive pressures, and the success of
