Financial Statements. ---------------------- See pages 2 through 5. ITEM 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and ------------------------------------------------------------------- Results of Operations. ----------------------- NINE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2000: The following table reflects the percentage changes in retail sales for the Company's retail and community sales centers and wholesale sales to independent retailers. It also reflects percentage changes in the average number of Company-owned retail centers, independent retailers and communities, the average sales per location, and the average price per home sold in each category. First Nine Months Fiscal Year 2000 vs 1999 ------------------------ Retail Dollar sales + 5.4% Number of retail centers + 8.2% Dollar sales per retail center - 2.6% Price of home + 7.9% Wholesale Dollar sales - 13.8% Number of independent retailers - 3.1% Dollar sales per independent retailer - 11.1% Price of home + 2.8% Communities Dollar sales + 49.1% Number of communities + 3.4% Dollar sales per community + 44.1% Price of home + 5.7% Total revenues for the nine months ended March 31, 2000, increased 1% to $953 million, as manufactured housing sales rose slightly to $730 million, financial services income grew 5% to $172 million and rental and other income increased 4% to $52 million. Current conditions in the manufactured housing industry are highly competitive at both the retail and wholesale levels. This competitive environment, as well as rising interest rates and general credit tightening, has contributed to decreased industry and company sales. Net sales of the Retail group rose 5% to $491 million as the average home price and the number of Company-owned sales centers increased 8%, offsetting a 10% decline in the average number of homes 6 sold per sales center. Net sales of the Manufacturing group decreased 14% to $207 million as the number of homes sold decreased 16% to 9,126. However, the average wholesale price to independent retailers increased 3% as a result of a shift in product mix towards multi-section homes. Net sales of the Communities group increased 49% to $31 million as 41% more homes were sold, and the average home selling price increased 6%. Within the revenues for the Financial Services segment, interest and loan servicing revenues increased $3 million, and insurance related revenues rose $4 million. Rental and other income increased 4% as Communities rental income rose 8%. Loans sold through asset-backed securities totaled $894 million, compared to $813 million during the same period last year. Financial services interest expense decreased $7 million to $1 million. Average debt collateralized by installment contract receivables dropped 26% to $10 million, while the weighted average interest rate moved from 10.42% to 10.45%. The terms of the debt preclude prepayment by the Company. Gross profit margins increased to 33.4% from 31.7%. The increase is attributable to a higher percentage of retail sales in the total sales mix as well as a shift in mix to multi-section units. Selling, general and administrative expenses, as a percent of revenues, increased to 29.9% from 27.7% in the prior year period primarily due to increased set up costs associated with the shift in mix toward multi-section units and sales of larger homes. Also contributing was an increase in the number of Company-owned sales centers without a corresponding increase in sales. The provision for credit losses increased to 1.9% from 1.2% of sales. The following table represents delinquent installment sales contracts as a percentage of the total number of installment sales contracts which the Company services and either owns or for which it is contingently liable. A contract is considered delinquent if any payment is more than one month past due.

It also reflects percentage changes in the average number of Company-owned retail centers, independent retailers and communities, the average sales per location, and the average price per home sold in each category. Third Three Months Fiscal Year 2000 vs 1999 Retail Dollar sales + 3.2% Number of retail centers + 6.3% Dollar sales per retail center - 2.9% Price of home + 3.6% Wholesale Dollar sales - 15.4% Number of independent retailers - 2.5% Dollar sales per independent retailer - 13.2% Price of home - 0.4% Communities Dollar sales + 34.9% Number of communities + 2.0% Dollar sales per community + 32.3% Price of home + 5.6% Total revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2000, decreased slightly to $307 million, as manufactured housing sales decreased 2% to $229 million, financial services income increased 3% to $60 million and rental and other income increased 5% to $18 million. Current conditions in the manufactured housing industry are highly competitive at both the retail and wholesale levels. This competitive environment, as well as rising interest rates and general credit tightening, has contributed to decreased industry and company sales. Net sales of the Retail group rose 3% to $154 million on a 4% rise in the average home price, a 6% increase in Company-owned sales centers, offsetting a 6% decrease in the average number of homes sold per sales center. Net sales of the Manufacturing group decreased 15% to $63 million as the number of homes sold also decreased 15% to 2,829. The average wholesale price to independent retailers decreased slightly. Net sales of the Communities group increased 35% to $12 million as 28% more homes were sold, and the average home selling price increased 6%. Within the revenues for the Financial Services segment, interest and loan servicing revenues increased $5 million, and insurance related revenues rose $1 million. Rental and other income increased 5% on a 9 9% rise in Communities rental income. Loans sold through asset-backed securities totaled $271 million, compared to $281 million during the same period last year. Financial services interest expense decreased $1.9 million to $.2 million. Average debt collateralized by installment contract receivables dropped 26% to $9 million, while the weighted average interest rate moved from 9.98% to 10.34%. The terms of the debt preclude prepayment by the Company. Gross profit margins increased to 33.5% from 32.6%. The increase is attributable to a higher percentage of retail sales in the total sales mix as well as a shift in mix to multi-section units. Selling, general and administrative expenses, as a percent of revenues, increased to 30.0% from 28.7% in the prior year period partially due to increased set up costs associated with the shift in mix toward multi-section units and sales of larger homes. Also attributable was an increase in the number of Company-owned sales centers without a corresponding increase in sales. The provision for credit losses increased to 2.3% from 1.5% of sales. The following table sets forth write-off experience for the quarters ended March 31, 2000 and 1999: Third Quarter Ended March 31, 2000 1999 ----- ----- Net losses as a percentage of average loans outstanding (annualized): All contracts. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1.3% 1.5% Contracts originated by VMF. . . . . . . . 1.1% 1.1% Contracts acquired from other institutions 2.6% 4.1% Liquidity and Capital Resources - ---------------------------------- Cash at March 31, 2000, was $8 million as compared to $3 million at June 30, 1999.

In April 1998, the AICPA issued SOP 98-5, Reporting on the Costs of Start-Up Activities, which is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1998.

Forward Looking Statements - ---------------------------- Certain statements in this quarterly report are forward looking as defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Law. These statements involve certain risks and uncertainties that may cause actual results to differ materially from expectations as of the date of this report. These risks fall generally within three broad categories consisting of industry factors, management expertise, and government policy and economic conditions. Industry factors include such matters as potential periodic inventory adjustments by both captive and independent retailers, general or seasonal weather conditions affecting sales and revenues, catastrophic events impacting insurance reserves, cost of labor and/or raw materials and industry consolidation trends creating fewer, but stronger competitors capable of sustaining competitive pricing pressures. Management expertise is affected by management's overall ability to anticipate and meet consumer preferences, maintain successful marketing programs, continue quality manufacturing output, keep a strong cost management oversight, and project stable gain on sale accounting assumptions. Lastly, management has the least control over government policy and economic conditions such as prevailing interest rates, capital market liquidity, government monetary policy, stable regulation of manufacturing standards, consumer confidence, favorable trade policies, and general prevailing economic and employment conditions. 11 PART II - - OTHER INFORMATION ITEM 1 - There were no reportable events for Item 1 through Item 5.
