Skyline Corporation and Subsidiary Companies
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
For the nine-month period ended February 28, 1999
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, 1999, the consolidated results of operations for the
three-month and nine-month periods ended February 28, 1999 and 1998, and
the consolidated cash flows for the nine-month periods ended February 28,
1999 and 1998.
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.
The financial data included herein has been subjected to a limited review
by PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, the registrant's independent accountants,
whose report is included on page 8 of this filing.
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.
The Corporation and its subsidiaries were contingently liable at
February 28, 1999 under agreements to purchase repossessed units on floor
plan financing made by financial institutions to its customers. Losses,
if any, would be the difference between repossession cost and the resale
value of the units. There have been no material losses in past years
under these agreements, and none are anticipated in the future.
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.
Earnings Per Share -- SFAS No. 128, "Earnings per Share," was
adopted in the third quarter of fiscal 1998. The Statement establishes
standards for computing earnings per share (EPS) by replacing the
Corporation's presentation of primary EPS with the presentation of
basic EPS. Basic EPS is calculated by dividing net income by the
weighted average number of common shares outstanding. All current and
prior year EPS amounts reflect the adoption of this new accounting
standard.
Skyline Corporation and Subsidiary Companies
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
For the nine-month period ended February 28, 1999
Segment Information -- SFAS No. 131, "Disclosures about Segments of an
Enterprise and Related Information," was issued in June 1997.
This statement, which the Corporation will adopt at the end of fiscal
1999, establishes standards for the way public enterprises report
segment information in both interim and annual financial statements.
The Corporation anticipates that segment information reported upon the
adoption of this statement will be similar to that which is currently
reported.
The Corporation has determined that the effects on the financial
statements from any other recently issued accounting standards will not
be material.
Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform with the
current year presentation.
Report of Independent Accountants
March 12, 1999
To The Board of Directors and Shareholders of Skyline Corporation
We have reviewed the accompanying consolidated balance sheet as of
February 28, 1999 and the related consolidated statements of earnings
and retained earnings for the three-month and nine-month periods ended
February 28, 1999 and 1998 and of cash flows of Skyline Corporation and
Subsidiary Companies. This financial information is 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 inquiries 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 financial information for it to
be in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.
We previously audited in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards, the consolidated balance sheet as of May 31, 1998, 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, 1998 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, 1998, 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 Quarter and Nine-Months Ended
February 28, 1999 Compared to the Same Periods Last Year
Sales in the quarter ended February 28, 1999 were $145,410,000, a
$14,020,000 increase from $131,390,000 in the prior year. Fiscal year
1999 sales were $492,869,000, a $39,568,000 increase from $453,301,000
in fiscal 1998. Quarterly manufactured housing sales totaled
$119,373,000 at February 28, 1999 compared to $105,762,000 at
February 28, 1998. Quarterly unit sales for manufactured homes
increased from 3,562 in 1998 to 3,727 in 1999. Sales in this business
segment totaled $406,649,000 from June 1998 to February 1999 versus
$374,763,000 from June 1997 to February 1998. Unit sales for fiscal
1999 were 12,826 compared to fiscal 1998's total of 12,743. The
increase in manufactured housing dollar sales is primarily due to a
continued increase in sales of multi-section homes. This product
accounted for 68 percent of all homes shipped by Skyline during the
third quarter of fiscal 1999 versus 61 percent for the prior year. In
addition, multi-section homes have a higher selling price compared to a
single section home. Recreational vehicle sales for the quarter
increased $409,000 from $25,628,000 in the prior year to $26,037,000.
Fiscal 1999 sales also increased to $86,220,000 from fiscal 1998's
total of $78,538,000. Quarterly unit sales for recreational vehicles
slightly increased from 2,014 in 1998 to 2,018 in 1999. Fiscal 1999
unit sales also increased from 6,204 to 6,803. The increase in this
business segment's sales is primarily attributable to continuing demand
for travel trailers.
Cost of sales in the third quarter was 82.6 percent of sales compared
to the prior year's 84.1. Cost of sales for fiscal 1999 was 81.4 percent
versus 82.9 percent. These decreases were primarily due to reductions in
raw material costs.
Quarterly selling and administrative expenses decreased from 14.4
percent in fiscal 1998 to 14.0 percent in 1999. The decrease is primarily
due to a level amount of expenses incurred relative to higher sales volume.
Fiscal 1999 expenses were 13.5 percent compared to prior year's 13.4 percent.
Skyline Corporation and Subsidiary Companies
Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations
Interest income for fiscal 1999's third quarter amounted to $1,485,000
versus $1,586,000 from prior year. Interest income is directly related
to the amount available for investments and the prevailing yields of
U.S. Government securities.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
At February 28, 1999 cash and short-term investments in U.S. Treasury
Bills totaled $132,266,000, an increase of $3,483,000 from $128,783,000
at May 31, 1998. Current assets exclusive of cash and investments in
U.S. Treasury Bills totaled $61,340,000 at February 28, an increase of
$1,641,000 from the May 31, 1998 balance of $59,699,000. An increase
in accounts receivable ($2,072,000) was the main cause of this change.
Current liabilities increased $5,391,000 from $46,297,000 at
May 31, 1998 to $51,688,000 at February 28, 1999. An increase in
accrued marketing programs ($9,334,000) coupled with decreases in
income taxes ($2,409,000), and accounts payable ($2,847,000) were the
primary reasons for the change. Working capital at February 28
amounted to $141,918,000 compared to $142,185,000 at May 31, 1998.
Capital expenditures totaled $5,207,000 in the first three quarters of
fiscal 1999 compared to $2,018,000 in the previous year. Capital
expenditures during the first nine months were made primarily to
replace or refurbish machinery and equipment, increase manufacturing
efficiencies, and increase manufacturing capacity. Cash was also used
to purchase $11,349,000 of the Corporation's stock in fiscal 1999's
first three quarters. 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.
Year 2000
The Year 2000 issue pertains to computer programs using two digits
rather than four to define the applicable year. Many of the
Corporation's computer programs were written using the common practice
of defining a year with two digits. As the year 2000 approaches,
programs with date-related logic will be unable to distinguish between
the years 1900 and 2000. Potential problems arising include software
and hardware failing, errors occurring in calculations, or information
being presented in an unusable format.
Skyline Corporation and Subsidiary Companies
Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations
In February 1997 the Corporation responded to the Year 2000 issue by
starting a project designed to update its computer systems. This
project entails changing computer code of programs developed
internally, upgrading software originally purchased from third party
vendors, and replacing hardware that is not Year 2000 compliant.
Virtually all of the Corporation's programs and hardware have been
upgraded, installed, tested and placed into production. One system
module has been upgraded and installed, is currently being tested, and
will be placed into production prior to the end of fiscal year 1999.
Management does not anticipate any significant impact on the Corporation's
operations resulting from the use of its computer systems beyond 1999. The
Corporation is also communicating with large customers and significant
suppliers of goods and services to determine these entities' readiness
to resolve their own Year 2000 issues.
There is no assurance that any customer or supplier will be Year 2000
compliant, however any potential lack of compliance is not expected to
have an adverse impact to the Corporation. The estimated cost of this
project, which is being expensed as incurred, is not expected to have a
material effect on the Corporation's results of operations, liquidity
or capital resources. The above information is based on management's
best estimates, and no guarantee can be made that these estimates will
be achieved.
Other Matters
The provision for federal income taxes in each year approximates the
statutory rate and for state income taxes reflect 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.
Skyline Corporation and Subsidiary Companies
Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations
On November 16, 1998 the Corporation increased its quarterly dividend
20 percent from $0.15 per share to $0.18 per share. The Corporation
also announced its intention to repurchase an additional one million
shares of its common stock. The prior repurchase authorization of
approximately 2.2 million shares has been completed.
On December 16, 1998, Ronald F. Kloska, Deputy Chief Executive Officer,
was promoted to Chief Executive Officer. The Corporation's previous
Chief Executive Officer, Arthur J. Decio, continues to serve as
Chairman of the Board. Mr. Kloska also continues to serve as Vice
Chairman of the Board.
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 involve uncertainties that may cause actual results to
materially differ from 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 implementing
administrative strategies.
