OAKWOOD [LOGO] HOMES CORPORATION 1995 ANNUAL REPORT RECORD YEAR PERFORMANCE NOW AND TOMORROW about the company Oakwood Homes Corporation is a fully integrated manufactured housing company--manufacturing, retailing and financing quality homes in a 30-state region stretching from coast to coast. Our strategy of vertical integration, which we have implemented more completely than any competitor, enables us to control all the factors that influence our customers' home buying decision: product features and design, quality of materials and workmanship, effectiveness of the retail selling process, availability of financing options that meet customer needs, and service after the sale. With 198 retail sales centers, we sell more homes than any other retailer, and our sales centers are consistently among the most productive in the industry in terms of the average number of new homes sold per center. As the fifth largest manufacturer in the industry, our 16 plants located across our market areas support the needs of our company-owned retail centers and, in certain markets, independent retailers. Our consumer finance arm makes the American dream of home ownership come true, providing almost one-half billion dollars in customer financing last year. We also provide home siting options for our customers in our rental communities and land/home subdivisions. Through our efforts in each of these areas, we provide a level of service and responsiveness to our customers that is greater than our competitors are able or willing to provide. Combining skills in retailing, manufacturing and finance, we are delivering the promise of complete customer satisfaction that today's value conscious consumer demands. Founded in 1946, our headquarters is located in Greensboro, North Carolina, and our common shares are listed on the New York Stock Exchange.

Revenues for the year increased 24% to $821 million from $665 million last year. Net income advanced 27% to $45 million from $36 million, and earnings per share were $1.97, a 27% increase from the $1.55 reported for 1994. Over the past five years, revenues have grown at a compound annual rate of 24% and earnings per share at an annual compound rate of 26%. While 1995 was a great year in terms of profitability, the more important story is what we accomplished toward making Oakwood Homes the preeminent manufactured housing company in America. We intend to compete in every significant manufactured housing market in the nation because we believe the industry has substantial opportunities for growth in the coming years. Manufactured housing has significant advantages over many other forms of shelter. As site-built homes lose their investment appeal in a non-inflationary environment, the outstanding value and high quality represented in the product today are key factors driving the industry. Improvements in the features, styling and construction of manufactured homes have made them attractive to a larger segment of the population than ever before. In a time when the average site-built home costs about $55 per square foot and the average manufactured home costs only about $25 per square foot, each excluding land, more and more consumers are looking for value. Moreover, there is significant change taking place in America, change which in many markets is reducing or stagnating family [The table below is represented as a bar graph in the printed report] Cumulative Growth since 1990 1991 1992 1993 1994 1995 ---- ---- ---- ---- ---- Oakwood Retail Home Sales ...... 12% 51% 98% 165% 239% Industry Shipments ............. -9% 2% 29% 54% 73% (PICTURE) 2 incomes despite increasing numbers of two-earner households. The substantial decrease in unemployment over the past few years has been deceptive, in that many people work in relatively lower-skilled service positions or have been rehired in jobs paying less than they previously made. As these consumers become more value conscious, they turn increasingly to manufactured housing, which now accounts for almost one-third of all new single-family homes sold in the United States. And while apartments are a competing form of lower cost housing, rational construction lending and income tax policies grounded in sound economics have limited the number of new lower cost apartments being constructed. We are positioning Oakwood to take advantage of positive industry trends through execution of our vertical integration strategy, in which we control every facet of our customers' home buying experience, from design to manufacturing, retail, financing and after-sale service. Vertical integration means agility and flexibility--the ability to respond to customer needs faster and more effectively than the competition. In some highly competitive states where our retail distribution system is well established, our retail market share is as high as 20%. We intend to grow by competing in attractive markets in which we currently have little or no presence and by improving productivity in our more established markets. Over the past five years, the industry's shipments have grown by 73%, while our retail home sales have grown at over three times that rate. We are gaining market share, and the reason is vertical integration. Our four largest competitors are together over six times our size, so we have a lot of market share left to gain. With last year's acquisition of Golden West Homes we signaled a dramatic acceleration of our expansion plans and claimed a meaningful share of attractive markets in the West and Northwest. This year, our acquisition of Destiny Industries gave us a strong foothold in the Deep South and complemented our existing retail network in the Southeast. In fiscal 1996, we will be concentrating on melding Golden West and Destiny into our vertically integrated operations by establishing a strong retail presence in their markets and laying the groundwork for expansion into new and existing markets in 1997 and beyond. During 1995 we did not neglect the most important prerequisite to achieving our long-term growth plans. We have added significantly to our management team to ensure we have the people to manage successfully a rapidly expanding business. We have continued to seek out the best people in their fields, and in the coming year we will be investing in additional training for all our Oakwood people to give them the new skills they need to keep us the best team in the industry. This year's results clearly reflect the quality of our people, and their talent and dedication are key to our future. As we turn our attention to the coming year, we are eager and enthusiastic to continue execution of our vertical integration strategy and our focus on customer value. Our confidence is bolstered by strong industry trends that continue to make our products more attractive to consumers. We believe there are considerable opportunities to grow our retail system in current and new markets, and these efforts will benefit greatly from our recent acquisitions. Finally, we have the financial and management resources to execute the bold plans we have set in motion to enhance the value of our franchise, and with it the value of the Company.

St. George 3 (PICTURE) Oakwood's Presence (MAP SHOWING RETAIL CENTER NETWORK) 4 - ---------------------------- CONTROLLING DISTRIBUTION - ---------------------------- growth Control of retail distribution is the cornerstone of Oakwood's growth strategy. This control ensures consistent quality and service throughout the entire customer encounter--not only in how the home is built, but also in the way it is sold and serviced. Company-owned retail distribution differentiates our products from the competition's through exclusivity, and creates brand loyalty among our customers. When industry conditions are not so robust as they are today, control over retail distribution should help insulate us from margin pressures because we will not have to compete with other manufacturers for retail shelf space, and it should enable market share gains as small, thinly capitalized retailers exit the market. Operating retail and manufacturing as a single business also enables us to respond effectively to customer problems, avoiding the battle between retailer and manufacturer about whether the problem was caused in manufacturing, delivery or installation. The result: a satisfied customer who refers others to us. The retail distribution network also feeds substantial loan origination volume into our finance company, acting as referral agents without the origination fees normally associated with that activity. Control of retail distribution has made Oakwood the largest retailer of manufactured housing in America. In fiscal 1995 we sold 16,711 new homes at retail, an increase of 28% over 1994 and 239% over our total just five years ago. [The table below is represented as a bar graph in the printed report] New Homes Sold at Retail 1990 ................... 4,926 1991 ................... 5,515 1992 ................... 7,453 1993 ................... 9,756 1994 ................... 13,034 1995 ................... 16,711 5 year compound growth rate: 28% [GRAPHIC OMITTED] WE ENDED FISCAL 1995 WITH 198 COMPANY-OWNED OUTLETS, UP FROM 152 AT THE END OF FISCAL 1994, AND HAVE APPROXIMATELY 45 NEW CENTERS PLANNED FOR FISCAL 1996.

[GRAPHIC OMITTED] THERE ARE HUNDREDS OF ATTRACTIVE MARKETS IN WHICH WE HAVE LITTLE OR NO PRESENCE, REPRESENTING SUBSTANTIAL OPPORTUNITIES FOR GROWTH. [GRAPHIC OMITTED] WE PLAN TO EXPAND AND ENHANCE THE EXCLUSIVE DEALER BASE AT GOLDEN WEST AND DESTINY IN SEVERAL WAYS, INCLUDING INTRODUCTION OF OUR FINANCIAL SERVICES PRODUCTS TO THESE DEALERS' CUSTOMERS. 5 - -------------------------------------------- ENHANCING PRODUCTIVITY AND PROFITABILITY - -------------------------------------------- agility In addition to being the largest retailer of manufactured housing in the nation, Oakwood is also one of the most productive retailers, selling significantly more new homes per sales center than most of our competitors. Average new unit sales per sales center fell only slightly in 1995 despite our adding 48 new sales centers during the year, the most ambitious expansion effort we've ever undertaken. Extensive salesperson training, proven marketing programs, and state-of-the-art information systems scheduled for implementation at our sales centers over the next year should enable our retail centers to improve unit sales in the coming years. To complement enhanced retail productivity, we are in the process of an extensive project to reengineer how we design and build houses, eliminating non-value added activities and processes. We are also working to improve the coordination between our retail and manufacturing units to help them operate more fully as a single business with a single focus: the retail customer. We believe consolidated gross margins should improve in the coming years as we realize the benefits of manufacturing cost reductions through our reengineering efforts and through the increased buying power we enjoy as a much larger company than we were even two years ago. Margins will also benefit from higher production levels from new manufacturing plants, enabling us to source a greater percentage of our retail sales from company-owned facilities. Margins should also benefit from distributing an increasing percentage of the homes manufactured by Golden West and Destiny through our expanded company-owned retail network. This will not only allow us to add the retail gross profit to the manufacturing profit we already earn, but also position us to profit from offering financial services products to our customers. We are also looking to technology to improve productivity and efficiency in our financial services businesses. The new retail information systems to be deployed in 1996 include automated loan application and loan document preparation features, and we are investigating new technology to make other elements of our credit and servicing operations more effective.

We plan to avoid the high-end and low-end niche products in favor of building the high-volume price point homes that maximize the economies of factory-built housing. Toward this end, in 1995 we made progress in significantly expanding the price range of products offered by Golden West, which prior to its acquisition by Oakwood produced principally high-end multi-section homes. This broader product line, to be supported by a significant expansion at the Albany, Oregon facility, will not only provide the range of homes needed by the company-owned retail centers we are opening in Golden West's markets, but also should enhance the prospects for stronger relationships on an exclusive basis with Golden West's independent dealers. One of our important efforts over the past five years has been to build our presence in the growing multi-sectional market, which comprises approximately one-half of the industry's unit shipments, but which accounted for less than 30% of our retail home sales in 1995. While single-section homes will always remain an essential part of the market because of their strong value, multi-section homes will likely gain increased popularity because they closely match the look, function and lifestyle offered by site-built homes. These attributes, coupled with the quality and craftsmanship of factory construction, are increasingly drawing new clientele to manufactured housing, including retirees, professionals and "empty nest" families--all of whom recognize the unmatched shelter value these homes provide. [The table below is represented as a bar graph in the printed report] Multi-Section Sales (% of new retail home sales) 1990 ................... 12% 1991 ................... 15% 1992 ................... 25% 1993 ................... 25% 1994 ................... 25% 1995 ................... 28% [GRAPHIC OMITTED] OAKWOOD'S VERTICAL INTEGRATION STRATEGY PROVIDES "ONE-STOP" SHOPPING TO SATISFY EVERY CUSTOMER NEED.

[GRAPHIC OMITTED] WE INTEND TO OFFER COMPETITIVE PRODUCTS AT ALL HIGH-VOLUME PRICE POINTS IN EVERY MARKET WE SERVE. [GRAPHIC OMITTED] THE OPPORTUNITY TO MARKET ADDITIONAL MULTI-SECTION HOMES PROVIDES THE POTENTIAL FOR SALES GROWTH EVEN IF THE OVERALL MARKET SLOWS. 9 - ---------------------------------- EMPHASIZING FINANCIAL SERVICES - ---------------------------------- performance An important element of the over-all one-stop shopping experience we provide for our customers is our financial services capability. Oakwood Acceptance has originated over $1.2 billion in loans in the past five years and has provided other important financial services to our customers to make home ownership a reality for thousands of families. With this dramatic growth, our financial services business has become an increasingly important contributor to our profitability. We now finance through Oakwood Acceptance more than 90% of our retail credit sales, providing a significant stream of revenues to complement what we earn from manufacturing and retail. We seek to minimize the effect of credit losses by using highly effective credit scoring systems and employing sophisticated loan servicing procedures. Moreover, by using the power of our extensive retail network, we can maximize recoveries on defaulted loans. Our successful origination and servicing record has enhanced our access to the capital markets. The cumulative net proceeds of our loan securitization program now exceed $1 billion. We expect to continue regular issuance of asset-backed securities in the public market through our Oakwood Mortgage Investors subsidiary and to continue our securitization relationship with a long-term institutional investor. During 1995 we also obtained Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac mortgage seller/servicer authorization as an additional step in exploring alternative loan financing opportunities. With our recent acquisitions in the Deep South and in the West--operations that previously had no captive finance sources --we foresee attractive opportunities to increase our loan originations hand in hand with our retail expansion and through closer relationships with our exclusive independent dealers. [GRAPHIC OMITTED] OVER THE LAST FIVE YEARS, LOAN ORIGINATIONS HAVE GROWN AT AN ANNUAL RATE OF 51%.

At the forefront of these efforts will be our unwavering commitment to quality and customer satisfaction, enhanced control over distribution to drive market share growth, the maximization of revenues at each stage of a vertically integrated enterprise, and the quest for greater manufacturing efficiencies to enhance profitability. A significant part of Oakwood's growth in fiscal 1996 is expected to come from the ongoing expansion of our retail sales network, which will be carried out in three distinct ways. First, we will continue to use the manufacturing presence of Golden West as a springboard for new market penetration in key western states, such as Arizona, California, Oregon and Washington. We plan to have 15 new sales centers in Northwest markets in operation by the end of fiscal 1996. Second, we will implement our Deep South expansion strategy using a core of 31 exclusive independent Destiny dealers as critical mass for the addition of 35 to 40 company-owned retail centers in strong manufactured housing states like Alabama, Florida, Georgia and Mississippi--four of the top ten markets in the country and ones in which we previously had little or no presence. Third, we will continue to enter new, attractive markets that are contiguous with our present marketing region. In doing so, we will establish relationships with independent dealers to serve smaller markets and target the most attractive areas for additional company-owned outlets. Most of the planned expansion into other new markets will await fiscal 1997 as we concentrate on the Deep South and Northwest in 1996. As we look toward 1997 and 1998, we plan to attack the mature manufactured housing markets in the central United States, such as Ohio, Illinois, Indiana and Michigan. Between now and the end of 1998, we plan to establish a presence in substantially all the major markets in the country, although we expect full penetration of those markets to take us into the next century. We expect to participate in the continuing consolidation in our industry, and would prefer to acquire existing manufacturers to meet our production needs, if quality candidates are available at a reasonable price. We believe that the vertical integration strategy that has served us well to this point makes even more sense in the current environment. Companies like WalMart have shown that control of distribution and focus on customer value are what it takes to be successful. We believe our increasing financial strength and the inherent power of a vertically integrated company should enable us to continue to gain market share in all market conditions, and should provide for continued growth in revenues and earnings in the years ahead. [GRAPHIC OMITTED] WE WILL CONTINUE EXPANSION OF COMPANY-OWNED SALES CENTERS TO SOLIDIFY RETAIL DOMINANCE. [GRAPHIC OMITTED] WE EXPECT TO IMPROVE GROSS MARGINS THROUGH INCREASED PRODUCTION AT NEW PLANTS, COST REDUCTIONS AND DISTRIBUTION OF GOLDEN WEST AND DESTINY PRODUCTS THROUGH COMPANY-OWNED SALES CENTERS.

See Notes 1 and 3 to the financial statements. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS During fiscal 1995 the Company continued to achieve significant growth in both revenues and earnings. Total revenues increased 24% to $821 million from $665 million last year, following a 37% increase in 1994 from the $484 million reported for 1993. Pro forma net income rose 27% in 1995 to $45.3 million compared to $35.7 million in 1994 and $25.7 million in 1993. Industry shipments grew for the fourth consecutive year in 1995. According to industry sources, shipments of manufactured homes were up approximately 12% for the first nine months of calendar 1995, and increased 20% in calendar 1994 over 1993. Oakwood's growth was more impressive, as new retail home sales grew by 28% in fiscal 1995 and 34% in fiscal 1994. In 1995, the Company continued executing its plan to become a national competitor, acquiring Destiny Industries, Inc. in Moultrie, Georgia, to serve as a springboard for expansion into the Deep South and expanding its retail network at the most rapid pace in its history. The following table summarizes certain key sales statistics for each of the last three fiscal years: 1995 1994 1993 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Retail sales (in millions) $ 543.8 $ 385.8 $ 258.8 Wholesale sales (in millions) $ 185.6 $ 201.5 $ 161.2 Other sales--principally relating to communities (in millions) $ 12.1 $ 7.8 $ 2.1 Total sales (in millions) $ 741.5 $ 595.1 $ 422.1 Gross profit %-- integrated operations 29.6% 30.4% 31.0% Gross profit %-- wholesale operations 18.7% 17.4% 15.2% New single-section homes sold--retail 12,073 9,715 7,305 New multi-section homes sold--retail 4,638 3,319 2,451 Used homes sold--retail 1,940 1,675 1,138 New single-section homes sold--wholesale 2,168 2,360 1,778 New multi-section homes sold--wholesale 4,923 5,671 4,873 Average new single-section sales price--retail $25,900 $23,900 $21,400 Average new multi-section sales price--retail $46,500 $42,800 $38,500 Average new single-section sales price--wholesale $14,100 $11,200 $12,000 Average new multi-section sales price--wholesale $31,200 $30,900 $28,700 Weighted average retail sales centers open during the year 178 136 112 Average new home sales per sales center 94 96 87 1995 COMPARED TO 1994 Retail sales dollar volume increased 41%, reflecting a 28% increase in new home volume and increases of 8% and 9% in the average new home sales prices of single-section and multi-section homes, respectively. New home volume rose primarily due to a 31% increase in the weighted average number of sales centers open during the year. Average new home sales per sales center decreased slightly, reflecting the rapid pace of retail expansion during fiscal 1995, in which the Company added 48 new sales centers compared to 32 centers in fiscal 1994. New sales centers typically require a period of several months to reach normalized unit sales levels. Because the Company plans to open approximately 35 to 45 new sales centers annually over the next several years, management does not expect any significant increase in the average number of new homes sold per sales center over the near term. Total sales dollars at sales centers open more than one year rose 9% in 1995. The increase in the average new home sales price reflects increases in the cost of certain raw materials and price increases implemented to recover increased costs associated with new wind and thermal standards adopted by the Department of Housing and Urban Development ("HUD"), as well as an increase in the portion of new home sales derived from the Southwest region, where the average home size is somewhat larger than in the Southeast. Sales in the Southwest comprised 38% of total new manufactured housing sales dollars in 1995 compared to 27% last year. Because the new HUD standards have been in effect for over one year and because the majority of 1996 retail expansion will take place in the Deep South, which typically favors lower price points than the Company's historical markets, the Company does not expect an increase in average home sales prices in 1996 consistent with the past two years. Retail sales of multi-section homes accounted for 28% of new home unit sales in 1995 versus 25% in 1994. Wholesale sales dollar volume (which represents sales by Golden West and Destiny to independent dealers) declined 8%, reflecting a 12% decrease in volume offset by increases of 26% and 1% in the average sales prices of new single-section and multi-section homes, respectively. The decline in wholesale volume is the result of a number of factors, including soft market conditions in the Pacific Northwest early in the year as a result of increased industry capacity and reduced demand for Golden West's relatively high price point products resulting from higher interest rates. In late March 1995, Golden West introduced several new home models at price points lower than those traditionally targeted by Golden West in order to broaden its product line, to lessen its dependence on higher end homes and to increase the attractiveness of 13 exclusive dealer arrangements. In addition, the Company sold Golden West's Sacramento, California plant in the third quarter because it was not well aligned geographically with the Company's retail expansion plans. Destiny's single-section home volume declined 8% from 1994, while the average single-section selling price increased 26%. During 1994 Destiny produced a large number of park model homes (which typically contain less than 400 square feet of living space and which are not designed for year-round habitation) which wholesale for between $5,000 and $6,000 per home. Because of improving conditions in Destiny's markets, Destiny produced significantly fewer park models in fiscal 1995, focusing instead on traditional manufactured housing products which carry higher gross margins. In addition, sales to independent dealers have declined because the Company has begun distributing homes manufactured by Golden West and Destiny through its company-owned retail sales centers. In 1995, Golden West and Destiny shipped 653 homes to Oakwood sales centers, which are not included in the wholesale dollar sales and home sales in the table above. Management expects Golden West's and Destiny's home sales to Oakwood to increase in future years. To the extent the Company is successful in establishing company-owned retail centers in Golden West and Destiny markets, the decline in sales to wholesale dealers will continue. Gross profit margin--integrated operations reflects the retail gross profit earned on retail sales as well as the manufacturing gross profit on retail sales of homes manufactured by the Company, including the manufacturing gross profit earned by Golden West and Destiny on their sales to the Oakwood retail operation. Gross profit margins--integrated operations declined to 29.6% in 1995 from 30.4% in 1994. The reduction in gross margin reflects a .4% decline in retail margins attributable to increasing competition at retail and to the results of certain new sales centers which in early 1995 did not meet gross profit expectations. During 1995, management provided additional training of retail personnel in order to improve retail margins and also implemented a new prospect tracking and follow-up program. Manufacturing margins also declined in 1995, principally due to start-up costs and manufacturing inefficiencies associated with new manufacturing plants in Texas, Tennessee and Colorado. As the year progressed, gross profit margin--integrated operations improved, rising from 29.1% in the first quarter to 30.1% in the fourth quarter. Approximately 76% of the total new home retail sales volume was manufactured by the Company in fiscal 1995 compared to 75% in 1994. To the extent production levels at new manufacturing facilities increase at a faster rate than new home sales, and manufacturing costs at new plants can be controlled, margins should increase as retail home sales are increasingly sourced from company-owned manufacturing facilities. Wholesale gross profit margins increased to 18.7% in 1995 from 17.4% last year. The increase in margins over the prior year reflects reduced production of low margin park models at Destiny, reduced product liability, property and workers' compensation insurance costs at Golden West, and improved pricing of certain materials and components resulting from taking advantage of Oakwood's purchasing power with certain vendors. These savings were partially offset by the effects of a shift in Golden West's product mix toward lower price point homes which typically carry lower margins because they are ordered with fewer high margin option packages. Financial services income increased 9% to $62.0 million from $56.8 million last year. Interest income earned on loans held for investment and on loans held for sale prior to securitization decreased from $44.2 million in 1994 to $38.2 million in 1995. This decrease reflects the amortization of and prepayments on loans held for investment, a decrease in the average balance of loans held for sale resulting from more frequent loan securitization, and a decrease in the average yield on these assets as older, higher-yielding loans are liquidated. The Company is selling via securitization substantially all the loans it originates, and accordingly interest income should continue to decline as the remaining loans held for investment are liquidated. Loan servicing fees increased from $7.1 million in 1994 to $12.2 million in 1995, reflecting the increased size of the Company's securitized loan servicing portfolio. REMIC residual income increased from $3.2 million to $7.2 million, reflecting the shift in the Company's financing strategy toward securitization of its loans from holding loans for investment and the adoption of sales accounting for securitizations in 1993. Other financial services revenues, which consist principally of credit life insurance premiums, miscellaneous fees and other income, increased to $4.4 million from $2.4 million, and reflect the increasing size of the Company's loan servicing portfolio. 14 The majority of the 41% increase in other income is related to increased insurance commissions resulting from the increase in retail home sales. Non-financial selling, general and administrative expenses rose to 22.3% of net sales compared to 21.6% of net sales last year. Non-financial selling, general and administrative expenses in 1995 include a charge of $1.2 million ($738,000 after tax, or $.03 per share) for costs associated with the sale of Golden West's Sacramento, California facility and costs resulting from staffing and overhead reductions at Golden West's Santa Ana, California headquarters, and a charge of $150,000 ($.01 per share) for costs associated with the Destiny merger. Non-financial selling, general and administrative expenses in 1994 include a charge of approximately $1.3 million ($973,000 after tax, or $.04 per share) for costs relating to the acquisition of Golden West Homes. Exclusive of these charges, non-financial selling, general and administrative expenses rose 29% to $163,940,000 (22.1% of net sales) compared to $127,216,000 (21.4% of net sales) last year. These costs increased disproportionately to sales as a result of general and administrative expenses associated with four new manufacturing plants, increased accruals relating to the 1996 long-term management incentive compensation plan, increased accruals for stock appreciation rights resulting from the increase in the price of the Company's common stock, costs associated with the Company's ongoing business reengineering projects and increased headcount levels, particularly in the management information systems, human resources and internal audit areas. Higher accruals for compensation payable under the incentive compensation plan and for stock appreciation rights granted under an earlier plan increased non-financial selling, general and administrative expenses by .5% of net sales compared to 1994. Financial services selling, general and administrative expenses rose 57% on a 34% increase in the average number of loans serviced during the period and a 56% increase in total credit application volume. This somewhat disproportionate growth in costs is largely due to increased headcount in the credit and collections areas. The Company has been adding headcount in advance of portfolio volume growth in order to help ensure that adequate numbers of properly trained personnel are available to originate and service anticipated loan origination growth. The provision for losses on credit sales decreased 62% from 1994, reflecting the increased seasoning of loans held for investment and loans sold with full or limited recourse. As the portfolio ages, its overall credit quality generally increases because the majority of credit losses generally are incurred relatively early in the term of the loans. The Company provides for estimated losses based on the Company's historical loss experience, current repossession trends and costs and management's assessment of the current credit quality of the loan portfolio. Non-financial services interest expense rose from $1,149,000 to $2,259,000 due principally to new indebtedness relating to permanent financing for new manufacturing facilities, the purchase of a corporate aircraft and the leveraging of the employee stock ownership plan. Financial services interest expense includes interest expense associated with long-term debt secured by loans and interest associated with short-term line of credit borrowings used to fund the warehousing of loans prior to their securitization. Financial services interest expense decreased 3% due to declining and retired long-term debt balances. This decrease was offset by a $3.2 million increase in short-term interest expense, reflecting higher average outstanding balances on lines of credit due to the significant increase in loan volume, as well as higher short-term interest rates. Financial services interest expense associated with notes and bonds payable is expected to continue to decline as the Company retires its outstanding debt secured by loans. The Company's pro forma effective income tax rate was 37.9% in fiscal 1995 compared to 37.5% in fiscal 1994 (excluding in 1994 a $214,000 reduction in income tax expense arising from the adoption of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes" ("FAS 109")). 15 1994 COMPARED TO 1993 Retail sales dollar volume rose 49% in 1994, reflecting a 34% increase in new home volume and increases of 12% and 11% in the average sales prices of new single-section and multi-section homes, respectively. New home volume increased due to a 21% increase in the weighted average number of sales centers open during the year and a 10% increase in average new home sales per sales center. Total sales dollars for sales centers open at least one year rose 20%. The increase in the average new home selling price reflects price increases required to offset rising lumber prices, the effect of the Company's entry into the Texas market where the average home size is larger than in the Southeast and higher selling prices in the Southeast due to a change in product mix toward higher-end homes. Sales in the Southwest comprised 27% of total new manufactured housing retail sales dollars during 1994 compared to 11% in 1993. Retail sales of multi-section homes accounted for approximately 25% of new home unit sales in both 1994 and 1993. Wholesale sales dollar volume increased 25%, reflecting a 21% increase in home volume and an 8% increase in the average sales price of new multi-section homes, offset by a 7% decrease in the average sales price of new single-section homes. The sales volume increases were primarily due to continued strong demand for manufactured housing in the western and southern United States and increased park model production at Destiny. The increase in the average wholesale multi-section selling price reflects price increases required to offset rising lumber prices, as well as changes in the product mix. The average single-section selling price declined due to increased production of park models. Gross profit margin--integrated operations decreased to 30.4% in 1994 from 31.0% in 1993. Margins rose in the Southeast, principally due to manufacturing efficiencies resulting from higher production levels, but were offset by the effects of the Company's expansion into the Southwest, where a substantial portion of the new home sales volume was sourced from third party manufacturers. Of the total 1994 new home sales volume, 75% was manufactured by the Company compared to 82% in 1993. Wholesale gross profit margins increased to 17.4% in 1994 from 15.2% in 1993. This improvement in margin was primarily due to greater operating efficiencies associated with a higher sales volume which allows for a more consistent production cycle. In addition, Golden West's 1993 results were negatively affected by a rapid rise in the cost of lumber, only a portion of which could be passed on in the form of sales price increases. Financial services income increased 13% to $56.8 million in 1994 from $50.1 million in 1993. Interest income rose 4% to $44.2 million from $42.3 million in 1993 as a result of higher average loans held for sale during the period. Interest on loans held for investment is declining as the underlying loans amortize; because the Company is selling through securitization substantially all its loan originations, loans held for investment and the related interest income will decline over time. Loan servicing fees increased to $7.1 million in 1994 from $4.9 million in 1993, reflecting the increased size of the Company's securitized loan servicing portfolio. REMIC residual income increased from $754,000 to $3.2 million, reflecting the adoption of sales accounting for the Company's REMIC securitizations in 1993. Other financial services revenues increased to $2.4 million from $2.1 million, and reflect the increasing size of the Company's loan servicing portfolio. Other income rose to $12.7 million in 1994 from $11.6 million in 1993. The 1993 amount includes a gain of $1.6 million on the sale of manufactured housing communities (approximately $1 million after tax, or $.05 per share). Excluding this gain, other income rose 27%, principally due to increased insurance commissions resulting from an improvement in the percentage of total sales for which physical damage coverage was written by the Company's agency and the overall increase in sales. This growth was offset by a decline in endorsement fee income resulting from the Company's emphasis on internal financing of credit sales. Endorsement fee income will continue to decline because the Company has ceased selling installment sale contracts on a full recourse basis. Non-financial selling, general and administrative expenses increased to 21.6% of net sales in 1994 from 20.2% in 1993. Non-financial selling, general and administrative expenses include a one-time charge of approximately $1.3 million ($973,000 after tax, or $.04 per share) for costs relating to the acquisition of Golden West Homes. Excluding this one-time item, non-financial services selling, general and administrative expenses were 21.4% of net sales in 1994. The increase in costs as a percentage of net sales reflects a provision for long-term management incentive compensation pursuant to a long-term incentive compensation plan adopted in 1994. The plan provides for cash bonuses to key management personnel payable in 1996 if certain earnings performance targets are achieved. Long-term incentive compensation previously was provided principally in the form of stock options, and accordingly did not result in a charge to earnings. The provision for compensation payable 16 under the plan amounted to approximately .6% of 1994 net sales. In addition, non-financial selling, general and administrative expenses in 1994 reflect costs associated with the Company's business process reengineering efforts, costs associated with a new Texas manufacturing plant opened during the year and four additional plants which began production at or soon after year end. Financial services selling, general and administrative expenses rose 20% on a 45% increase in the average number of loans serviced and a 43% increase in total credit application volume. The provision for losses on credit sales decreased 21% from 1993, reflecting the increased seasoning of loans held for investment and sold with full or limited recourse. Non-financial services interest expense decreased primarily due to the redemption or conversion of the Company's convertible subordinated debentures in November and December 1992. Financial services interest expense decreased because the Company has adopted sales accounting for its REMIC securitizations; prior to 1993, REMIC securitizations were treated as collateralized borrowings. Effective October 1, 1993 the Company adopted prospectively FAS 109, which requires the use of the asset and liability method to account for temporary differences between the financial reporting and income tax bases of the Company's assets and liabilities. Prior to fiscal 1994 the Company accounted for the timing differences between financial and taxable income using the deferred method. Adoption of FAS 109 had the effect of reducing the provision for income taxes and increasing net income by $214,000 ($.01 per share) in the first quarter of fiscal 1994. Excluding the effects of adoption of FAS 109, the Company's pro forma effective income tax rate was 37.5% in 1994 compared to 37.2% in 1993. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES Retail financing of sales of the Company's products is an integral part of the Company's vertical integration strategy. Such financing consumes substantial amounts of capital, which the Company has obtained principally by issuing debt collateralized by its loans or by securitizing such loans, primarily using REMICs. Over the past five years, the Company has been able to obtain from investors and lenders an increasing percentage of the capital required to fund its finance business, and the related yield over treasuries required by investors has declined, principally because of continued improvement in the performance of loans originated by the Company, increasing investor and lender familiarity with asset-backed financing transactions in the manufactured housing industry, declining interest rates, and because of the Company's increasingly strong financial performance. The Company expects to originate in excess of $600 million of loans in fiscal 1996 and believes it can finance substantially all of this amount through securitization of the loans. During 1995 the Company raised approximately $362 million to finance its loans, including $281 million from REMIC certificates sold by Oakwood Mortgage Investors, substantially all of which was sold to the public. In October 1995 Oakwood Mortgage Investors completed another REMIC offering, the proceeds of which were approximately $187 million. In each of the Company's four public REMIC securities offerings, the Company has sold REMIC interests having a principal balance equal to 100% of the par value of the related loans, and the Company intends to sell all of the regular REMIC interests in its future securitizations. This decision eliminates the Company's need for cash to finance retained REMIC interests and substantially reduces the need to obtain other long-term financing. Because the Company intends to continue to expand significantly its retail distribution network and because a large percentage of the Company's customers purchase on credit, the Company will have a substantial need for financing of its loans in the coming years, and intends to utilize both the public and private markets to broaden the number of sources of financing and minimize its financing costs. In addition to the ongoing need to access the asset-backed capital market for capital to fund its financing operations, the Company will require capital to execute its ongoing expansion strategy. The Company estimates that its fiscal 1996 capital expenditures will approximate $37 million, comprised principally of offices, leasehold improvements and fixtures relating to retail expansion, remaining construction and upfit costs on a new headquarters building, development of existing manufactured housing communities, computer hardware and software associated with new and enhanced management information systems and improvements to manufacturing facilities. In addition to capital expenditures, the retail expansion will require an investment of approximately $400,000 of working capital for each new sales center, or approximately $16 million for fiscal 1996. Capital expenditures and working capital requirements in later years are dependent upon the extent of expansion undertaken in such years. 17 The Company intends to finance its retail and manufacturing expansion principally using internally generated funds and short-term lines of credit. Because the Company has decided to sell all of the regular REMIC interests in its future securitizations, additional permanent corporate financing is not expected to be required to fund expansion of the financial services businesses. However, the Company continues to monitor the debt and equity markets and evaluate the sources and cost of long-term capital in light of management's assessment of existing and future conditions in the capital markets and its assessment of the appropriate components of the Company's capital structure. While management believes that existing financing is sufficient to provide for the Company's needs for the foreseeable future, the Company may seek to raise additional long-term debt or equity if compelling market conditions arise. The Company has several credit facilities in place to provide for its short-term liquidity needs. The Company has a $130 million line of credit facility with a group of banks to provide warehouse financing for loans, which bears interest at LIBOR plus 1%. The Company also has a $75 million revolving line of credit secured by inventory bearing interest at LIBOR plus 1%. The Company currently is negotiating additional short-term credit, and expects to achieve a reduction in the interest rate on short-term borrowings. NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS In March 1995 the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the "Board") adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of" ("FAS 121"), which requires that companies assess potential impairments of long-lived assets, certain identifiable intangibles and associated goodwill when there is evidence that events or changes in circumstances have made recovery of an asset's carrying value unlikely, and recognize an impairment loss when the sum of expected future net cash flows is less than the carrying amount. In May 1995 the Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 122, "Accounting for Mortgage Servicing Rights" ("FAS 122"), which eliminates the accounting distinction between rights to service mortgage loans that are acquired through loan origination activities and those acquired through purchase transactions. FAS 122 requires that an entity which sells or securitizes loans while retaining the mortgage servicing rights applicable to the loans, allocate a portion of the costs of acquiring/originating the loans to mortgage servicing rights based on their relative fair values. The resulting asset is then amortized and evaluated for impairment. The Company is studying the applicability of FAS 122 to its loan originations, only a small portion of which are mortgages. In October 1995 the Board adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation" ("FAS 123"), which provides that companies adopt a method of accounting for stock compensation awards based on estimated fair value at the date the awards are granted using an accepted pricing model. The resulting charge to income is recognized over the period during which the options or awards vest. The Board encourages recognition of such expense in the statement of income but does not require it. If expense is not recorded in the financial statements, FAS 123 requires pro forma disclosures regarding the effects on net income and earnings per share had expense been recognized. Management is evaluating the potential effects on the Company's financial statements of adoption of these statements, each of which the Company must adopt in fiscal 1997. While such evaluation is not complete, management currently does not expect adoption of the statements will have a material effect on its financial condition or results of operations. 18 OAKWOOD HOMES CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES - ------------------------------------ CONSOLIDATED STATEMENT OF INCOME - ------------------------------------ (in thousands except per share data) Year ended September 30, ------------------------------------- 1995 1994 1993 ------------------------------------- Revenues Net sales $741,521 $595,127 $422,103 Financial services income (Note 4) 61,995 56,771 50,051 Other income (Note 5) 17,896 12,712 11,582 ------------------------------------- Total revenues 821,412 664,610 483,736 ------------------------------------- Costs and expenses Cost of sales 543,320 441,364 316,974 Selling, general and administrative expenses Non-financial services (Note 3) 165,290 128,516 85,382 Financial services 12,799 8,127 6,748 Provision for losses on credit sales (Note 6) 2,109 5,485 6,945 Interest expense Non-financial services 2,259 1,149 1,706 Financial services 22,638 23,260 25,054 ------------------------------------- Total costs and expenses 748,415 607,901 442,809 ------------------------------------- Income before income taxes 72,997 56,709 40,927 Provision for income taxes (Note 7) 26,374 20,009 14,876 ------------------------------------- Net income $ 46,623 $ 36,700 $ 26,051 ===================================== Pro forma information (unaudited) (Note 2) Historical income before income taxes $ 72,997 $ 56,709 $ 40,927 Pro forma provision for income taxes 27,679 21,054 15,212 ------------------------------------- Pro forma net income $ 45,318 $ 35,655 $ 25,715 ===================================== Pro forma earnings per share (unaudited) (Note 2) Primary $ 1.97 $ 1.55 $ 1.21 ===================================== Fully diluted $ 1.97 $ 1.55 $ 1.18 ===================================== The accompanying notes are an integral part of the financial statements. 19 OAKWOOD HOMES CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES - ------------------------------ CONSOLIDATED BALANCE SHEET - ------------------------------ (in thousands except share and per share data) September 30, -------------------------- 1995 1994 -------------------------- Assets Cash and cash equivalents $ 6,189 $ 16,974 Receivables and investments (Notes 6 and 11) 480,875 372,278 Inventories (Note 8) 151,190 98,688 Properties and facilities, net of accumulated depreciation and amortization (Notes 9 and 11) 101,758 67,225 Deferred income taxes (Note 7) 15,546 7,403 Other assets 27,082 27,829 -------------------------- $ 782,640 $ 590,397 ========================== Liabilities and shareholders' equity Short-term borrowings (Note 10) $ 154,400 $ 25,000 Notes and bonds payable (Note 11) 198,812 207,990 Accounts payable and accrued liabilities (Note 12) 87,405 68,284 Reserve for contingent liabilities (Note 6) 3,184 3,827 Other long-term obligations 20,431 8,966 Shareholders' equity (Notes 13 and 14) Common stock, $.50 par value;

("Destiny"), and on September 30, 1994 Oakwood acquired Golden West Homes ("Golden West"). Each of these acquisitions has been accounted for as a pooling of interests as described in Note 3. The accompanying financial statements reflect the combined results of operations and financial position of Oakwood, Destiny and Golden West for all periods presented. Prior to its acquisition by Oakwood, Golden West utilized a 52/53 week year ending in December. For accounting convenience, the accompanying financial statements for the year ended September 30, 1993 have not been adjusted to conform Golden West's accounting year to the September 30 year used by Oakwood and Destiny. Amounts set forth in the accompanying financial statements for 1993 reflect the results of operations of Oakwood and Destiny for the twelve months ended September 30, 1993, and the results of operations of Golden West for the twelve months ended December 1993. Accordingly, Golden West's results of operations for the three months ended December 25, 1993 have been reflected in the accompanying financial statements for both 1994 and 1993, and such results of operations have been reflected as a reduction in the opening balance of retained earnings for the year ended September 30, 1994 in the accompanying statement of changes in shareholders' equity. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Oakwood Homes Corporation and its subsidiaries, including Destiny and Golden West (collectively, the "Company"). All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. NOTE 2--SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Retail financing A substantial majority of the Company's retail customers purchase homes on credit. The related loans are evidenced by either installment sale contracts or mortgages originated by the Company's finance subsidiary, Oakwood Acceptance Corporation, or, to a much lesser extent, by third party financial institutions. The Company finances its lending activities primarily by securitizing the loans it originates using Real Estate Mortgage Investment Conduits ("REMICs") or, for certain FHA-insured loans, using collateralized mortgage obligations issued under authority granted to the Company by the Government National Mortgage Association ("GNMA"). Indebtedness of the Company secured by loans, including REMIC securitizations completed prior to fiscal 1993 when the Company adopted sales accounting for its REMICs, is reflected in the financial statements as collateralized borrowings. REMIC securitizations consummated in fiscal 1993 and thereafter and all GNMA securitizations are treated as sales of receivables. The Company allocates the sum of its basis in the loans conveyed to each REMIC and the costs of forming the REMIC among the interests retained and the interests sold to investors based upon the estimated relative fair values of such interests; costs of marketing REMIC interests sold are charged to expense as incurred. The aggregate gains on securitization transactions have not been material. Effective October 1, 1994 the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards, "Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities" ("FAS 115"). REMIC residual interests retained by the Company following securitization are considered held to maturity under the provisions of FAS 115 and are carried at amortized cost; retained regular REMIC interests are considered available for sale and are carried at their estimated fair values. The Company has no securities held for trading purposes. Prior to adoption of FAS 115, both regular and residual REMIC interests retained by the Company were carried at amortized cost. Loans held for investment are carried at their outstanding principal amounts, less unamortized discounts and plus unamortized premiums. Loans held for sale are carried at the lower of cost or market. Revenue recognition--manufactured housing The Company records a retail sale upon passage of title to the home to the customer and, in the case of credit sales, upon execution of the loan agreement and other required documentation and receipt of a designated minimum down payment. Homes sold to independent dealers are manufactured to order; the Company recognizes a sale upon completion and transfer of title to the home. The Company receives an agent's commission on insurance policies issued by unrelated insurance companies. Insurance commissions are recognized in income at the time the policies are written. The Company receives an endorsement fee from certain unrelated financial institutions in exchange for guaranteeing loans sold to such institutions. Endorsement fees are recognized on the level yield method over the life of the related loans; such fees relate principally to loans sold prior to 1990 when the Company substantially ceased selling loans on a full recourse basis. 23 Revenue recognition--financial services Interest income on loans is recognized in accordance with the terms of the loans (principally 30 day accrual). The Company retains servicing rights for substantially all loans it originates, except for loans sold without recourse. Servicing fee income is recognized as earned. Income on retained REMIC residual interests, net of associated credit losses, is recorded as earned using the level yield method over the period such interests are outstanding. The Company periodically purchases portfolios of loans. The Company adds to the reserve for losses on credit sales an estimate of future credit losses on such loans and includes such amount as a component of the purchase price of the acquired portfolios. The difference between the aggregate purchase price of the acquired portfolios and the aggregate principal balance of the loans included therein, representing discount or premium on the loans, is amortized to income over the life of the loans using the level yield method. Interest rate risk management The Company periodically enters into off-balance sheet financial agreements, principally forward contracts to enter into interest rate swaps, in order to hedge the sales price of REMIC interests to be sold in securitization transactions. The net settlement proceeds or cost from termination of the contracts is included in the determination of gain or loss on the sale of the REMIC interests. Inventories Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or market, with cost determined using the specific identification method for new and used manufactured homes and the first-in, first-out method for all other items. Properties and facilities Properties and facilities are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. The Company provides depreciation and amortization using principally the straight-line method over the assets' estimated useful lives, which are as follows: Estimated Classification useful lives - ---------------------------------------------------------------- Land improvements 3-20 years Buildings and field sales offices 8-50 years Furniture, fixtures and equipment 2-10 years Leasehold improvements 3-10 years Manufactured housing communities 10-20 years Income taxes Effective October 1, 1993 Oakwood adopted prospectively the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes" ("FAS 109"), which requires use of the asset and liability method to account for deferred income taxes. Prior to 1994, Oakwood accounted for income taxes using the deferred method. The excess of Oakwood's aggregate net deferred income tax asset as of October 1, 1993, computed using the asset and liability method, over the aggregate net deferred income tax asset as of September 30, 1993, computed using the deferred method, was approximately $214,000 ($.01 per share) and has been reflected as a reduction in the provision for income taxes for 1994. Golden West utilized the asset and liability method for all periods presented. The Company's results of operations for 1993 would not have been materially different had Oakwood adopted FAS 109 as of the beginning of that year. Reserve for losses on credit sales The Company maintains reserves for estimated credit losses on loans held for investment or sold to third parties with full or limited recourse. The Company provides for losses on credit sales in amounts necessary to maintain the reserves at amounts the Company believes are sufficient to provide for future losses based upon the Company's historical loss experience, current economic conditions and an assessment of current portfolio performance measures. During fiscal 1995 the Company began presenting the effects of current and anticipated future credit losses relating to retained REMIC residual interests as an element of financial services income as opposed to including such effects in the provision for credit losses. Amounts previously reported for 1994 have been reclassified to conform to the basis of presentation adopted in 1995. Unaudited pro forma information Prior to its acquisition by the Company, Destiny was an S corporation, and accordingly its earnings were includable in the income tax returns of its former shareholders. As a consequence, Destiny's financial statements did not reflect a provision for income taxes for periods prior to its acquisition by the Company. The pro forma provision for income taxes and pro forma net income set forth in the statement of income reflect the Company's provision for income taxes on a pro forma basis assuming Destiny's results of operations had been included in the Company's income tax returns for preacquisition periods. Deferred income taxes relating to Destiny's assets and liabilities as of the acquisition date were not material and have been charged to the provision for income taxes for the year ended September 30, 1995. 24 The pro forma provision for income taxes and amounts derived therefrom are unaudited. Earnings per share Primary earnings per share is computed by dividing pro forma net income by the weighted average number of common and dilutive common equivalent shares outstanding during the year. The weighted average number of shares used in the computation of primary earnings per share was 22,999,000, 22,992,000 and 21,166,000 in 1995, 1994 and 1993, respectively. Fully diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing pro forma net income, adjusted for interest accruing on the convertible subordinated debentures, net of income taxes, by the sum of the weighted average number of common and dilutive common equivalent shares outstanding and the number of common shares into which the convertible subordinated debentures could be converted during periods in which such convertible securities were outstanding. During 1993 the Company called for redemption of all the outstanding convertible subordinated debentures as described in Note 13. The weighted average number of shares used in the computation of fully diluted earnings per share was 23,056,000, 23,005,000 and 22,027,000 in 1995, 1994 and 1993, respectively. The dilutive effect of stock options is computed using the treasury stock method. Because the Company's historical results of operations do not reflect a provision for income taxes on Destiny's earnings for preacquisition periods, historical earnings per share amounts are not meaningful and accordingly have been omitted. Cash and cash equivalents Short-term investments having initial maturities of three months or less are considered cash equivalents. Reclassifications Certain amounts previously reported for 1994 and 1993 have been reclassified to conform to classifications used in 1995. NOTE 3--ACQUISITIONS On June 30, 1995 Oakwood completed its business combination with Destiny. Oakwood issued 925,000 shares of its common stock in exchange for all the outstanding common stock of Destiny (an exchange ratio of approximately 9.25 Oakwood common shares for each outstanding Destiny common share). On September 30, 1994 Oakwood completed its business combination with Golden West. Oakwood issued 612,857 shares of its common stock in exchange for all the outstanding common and convertible preferred stock of Golden West, and substituted options to acquire 87,116 shares of Oakwood common stock for previously granted options to acquire Golden West common stock (an exchange ratio of approximately .23 of an Oakwood common share for each outstanding Golden West common share and each right to acquire a Golden West common share). These business combinations have been accounted for as poolings of interests, and accordingly the accompanying financial statements reflect the combined results of operations and financial position of Oakwood, Destiny and Golden West for all periods presented, as more fully described in Note 1. Summary results of operations for Oakwood (including Golden West) and Destiny for periods prior to the Destiny acquisition are set forth below. Gross profit recorded by Destiny on sales to Oakwood in preacquisition periods has been eliminated with respect to homes in Oakwood's inventory as of the combination date.

Oakwood incurred approximately $500,000 of costs and expenses directly related to completing the Golden West acquisition. In addition, Golden West incurred approximately $800,000 of costs relating to completion of the acquisition and relating to Golden West's planned initial public offering of common stock, which was terminated in connection with the business combination with Oakwood. The aggregate amount of these costs of approximately $1.3 million ($973,000 net of income taxes, or $.04 per share) has been charged to operations in 1994 and is included in selling, general and administrative expenses. 25 NOTE 4--FINANCIAL SERVICES BUSINESSES The Company's financial services businesses include Oakwood Acceptance Corporation ("Oakwood Acceptance"), which purchases a substantial portion of the loans originated by the Company's retail operations and from time to time purchases portfolios of loans from third parties. Oakwood Acceptance retains servicing on substantially all loans held for investment or securitized by Oakwood Acceptance or its subsidiary, Oakwood Mortgage Investors, Inc. Oakwood Funding Corporation ("Oakwood Funding") is a special-purpose subsidiary of Oakwood Acceptance which has issued non-recourse notes secured by specific pools of loans. Oakwood Acceptance has from time to time also issued notes in its own name secured by loans. Oakwood Financial Corporation ("Oakwood Financial") is a subsidiary of Oakwood Homes Corporation which holds the Company's retained interests in REMIC trusts. Oakwood Life Ltd. ("OLL") reinsures risk on credit life insurance policies written by an unrelated insurance company in connection with sales of Company products. The aggregate principal balance of loans sold to third parties, including securitization transactions in which the Company retained an interest, was approximately $368 million in 1995, $380 million in 1994 and $92 million in 1993. Oakwood Acceptance's servicing portfolio totalled approximately $1.2 billion and $843 million at September 30, 1995 and 1994, respectively, of which approximately $787 million and $509 million, respectively, represented loans owned by REMIC trusts treated as sales of receivables and other loans sold to third parties.

Loans in which the Company retains an interest, either directly by owning them or indirectly through the Company's retained interests in REMIC securitizations, are located in over forty states, with North Carolina, South Carolina, Virginia and Texas accounting for the majority of the loans. Because of the nature of the Company's retail business, loans are not concentrated with any single customer or among any group of customers. Trade receivables represent amounts due from Golden West and Destiny independent dealers, which are located principally in the Pacific Northwest and in the Southeast. Substantially all the loans included in the Company's GNMA securitizations are covered by FHA insurance which generally limits the Company's risk to 10% of credit losses incurred on such loans. The Company's risk associated with nonrecourse debt secured by loans is limited to the Company's equity in the underlying collateral. The Company retains all of the credit risk associated with loans used to secure debt issued by the Company and with respect to which creditors have recourse to the general credit of the Company in addition to the collateral for the indebtedness. The Company's contingent liability as guarantor of loans sold to third parties on a recourse basis was approximately $95 million as of September 30, 1995. 27 The following table summarizes the transactions reflected in the reserve for losses on credit sales: 1995 1994 1993 ----------------------------------- (in thousands) Balance at beginning of year $14,623 $12,477 $ 7,360 Provision for losses 2,109 5,485 6,945 Reserve recorded related to acquired portfolios -- 1,000 1,500 Losses charged to the reserve (4,937) (4,339) (3,328) ----------------------------------- Balance at end of year $11,795 $14,623 $12,477 =================================== The reserve for losses on credit sales is reflected in the balance sheet as follows: 1995 1994 --------------------- (in thousands) Reserve for uncollectible receivables $ 8,611 $10,796 Reserve for contingent liabilities 3,184 3,827 --------------------- $11,795 $14,623 ===================== The Company also retains credit risk on REMIC securitizations because the related trust agreements provide that all losses incurred on REMIC loans are charged to REMIC interests retained by the Company before any losses are charged to REMIC interests sold to third party investors; such credit risk is considered in determining the carrying value of the investments and the Company's yield thereon. The Company has retained servicing on substantially all loans it has originated since 1989 with respect to which the Company has retained any credit risk. Golden West and Destiny are contingently liable under terms of repurchase agreements with financial institutions providing inventory financing for retailers of their products. These arrangements, which are customary in the industry, provide for the repurchase of products sold to retailers in the event of default on payments by the retailer. Although Golden West and Destiny are contingently liable under these agreements, the risk of loss is spread over numerous retailers and financing institutions and is further reduced by the resale value of repurchased homes. The estimated potential obligations under such agreements approximated $52 million at September 30, 1995. Losses under these agreements have not been significant.

At September 30, 1995 the remaining net operating loss carryforward is approximately $5,425,000 for federal income tax purposes. Utilization of such carryforward is dependent upon the realization of taxable income by Golden West, and such utilization is limited to a maximum of approximately $775,000 annually through 2002. Income tax payments were approximately $27.4 million, $24.8 million and $13.8 million in 1995, 1994 and 1993, respectively.

NOTE 10--SHORT-TERM CREDIT FACILITIES The Company has a $130 million line of credit facility with a group of commercial banks secured by loans held for sale, with interest payable at either LIBOR plus 1% or prime. The Company has a $75 million line of credit with a commercial bank secured by manufactured housing inventory with interest payable at either LIBOR plus 1% or prime. 29 NOTE 11--NOTES AND BONDS PAYABLE The components of notes and bonds payable are as follows: 1995 1994 --------------------------- (in thousands) Non-financial services debt 9% reset debentures due 2007 $ 22,953 $ 23,000 9.125% reset debentures due 2007 16,975 17,000 Term loan payable in quarterly installments through 1998, with interest at LIBOR plus 1.5% 12,000 -- Capitalized aircraft lease payable in monthly installments through 2000, with interest at LIBOR plus .75% 6,292 -- Industrial revenue bonds due in annual installments through 2011, with interest at a variable rate (4.55% and 4.2% at September 30, 1995 and September 30, 1994, respectively) 4,900 5,100 Industrial revenue bond due in installments through 2001, with interest at 73% of the lender's prime rate 2,350 2,450 Other mortgage notes at interest rates ranging from 8% to 9%, payable in varying installments through 2006 2,784 3,354 ESOP note payable in quarterly installments through 2000, with interest at LIBOR plus 1.25% 2,160 -- Note payable in monthly installments through November 1998, with interest at LIBOR plus 1.50% (prime plus .75% prior to 1995) 748 977 Other -- 400 --------------------------- Total non-financial services debt 71,162 52,281 --------------------------- Financial services debt collateralized by loans Nonrecourse debt Notes issued by Oakwood Funding Corporation, payable in monthly installments through May 2001, with interest at an average rate of 8.89% (8.99% at September 30, 1994) 39,130 54,784 REMIC Trust 1990 subordinated certificates payable in monthly installments through September 2001, with interest at 10.1% 12,854 15,123 REMIC Trust 1992-1 certificates payable in monthly installments through April 2001 with interest at 8.86% 12,482 15,676 REMIC Trust 1991-1 certificates payable in monthly installments through September 1999 with interest at 9.5% 7,453 10,313 Subordinated note payable with interest payable monthly at 12.58%, amortizing in 1998 through 2001 8,350 8,350 REMIC Trust 1988-1 certificates payable through 1995 with interest at 10.1% -- 1,446 --------------------------- Total nonrecourse debt 80,269 105,692 --------------------------- Recourse debt Term loans payable in monthly installments through December 2000, with interest at rates ranging from LIBOR plus 1.375% to prime plus .5% (LIBOR plus 2% to prime plus .5% at September 30, 1994) 29,799 28,223 Subordinated note with interest payable monthly at 10.51%, amortizing in 2001 through 2004 12,954 12,954 Notes payable in quarterly installments through December 1998, with interest at 10.25% 4,628 8,840 --------------------------- Total recourse debt 47,381 50,017 --------------------------- Total financial services debt 127,650 155,709 --------------------------- $198,812 $207,990 =========================== 30 The interest rates on the reset debentures will reset on June 1, 1997 and June 1, 2002 to a rate to be determined by the Company in its sole discretion. The reset debentures are redeemable at par at the option of the holders thereof upon the occurrence of certain events, the most significant of which, generally, involve a substantial recapitalization of the Company, merger or consolidation of the Company, or acquisition of more than 30% of the beneficial ownership in the Company by any person. In addition, the holders of the reset debentures may call for their redemption as of either interest reset date. The reset debentures are callable at the option of the Company at 101% of par and at par beginning June 1, 1996. The payment of notes collateralized by loans and REMIC certificates generally is based on the scheduled monthly payment and actual prepayments of principal on the loans collateralizing the notes or held by the REMIC trusts. Under the provisions of certain note agreements and the trust indentures of each REMIC trust, the notes and REMIC certificates are secured solely by the underlying collateral, which consists principally of the loans collateralizing the debt or held by the REMIC trusts. Such collateral had an aggregate carrying value of approximately $174 million at September 30, 1995. In connection with the issuance of certain indebtedness, the Company incurred certain costs and discounts which are being amortized over the life of the related obligations using the level yield method. The unamortized portion of these costs, which is included in other assets, was approximately $2,881,000 and $4,014,000 at September 30, 1995 and 1994, respectively. Land, land improvements, buildings and equipment with a net book value of approximately $26 million are pledged as collateral for the $12 million term loan, the mortgage notes and the industrial revenue bonds. The $4.9 million industrial revenue bond is also secured by a letter of credit provided by a major bank through 1996. The estimated principal payments under notes and bonds payable are $37 million in 1996, $34 million in 1997, $28 million in 1998, $20 million in 1999, $15 million in 2000 and the balance thereafter. Interest paid by the Company was approximately $24.3 million in 1995, $23.9 million in 1994 and $26.5 million in 1993. Various of the Company's debt agreements and loan servicing agreements contain covenants which, among other things, require the Company and/or Oakwood Acceptance to maintain certain minimum financial ratios. The Company and Oakwood Acceptance were in compliance with all such covenants at September 30, 1995. NOTE 12--ACCOUNTS PAYABLE AND ACCRUED LIABILITIES The components of accounts payable and accrued liabilities are as follows: 1995 1994 ---------------------- (in thousands) Accounts payable $47,705 $36,195 Accrued compensation 17,778 12,980 Accrued dealer volume bonus 3,792 4,260 Income taxes payable 7,607 2,608 Other accrued liabilities 10,523 12,241 ---------------------- $87,405 $68,284 ====================== NOTE 13--SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY The Company has adopted a Shareholder Protection Rights Plan (the "Plan") to protect shareholders against unsolicited attempts to acquire control of the Company that do not offer what the Company believes to be an adequate price to all shareholders. Under the Plan each outstanding share of the Company's common stock has associated with it a right to purchase (each, a "Right" and, collectively, the "Rights"), upon the occurrence of certain events, one two-hundredth of a share of junior participating Class A preferred stock ("Preferred Stock") at an exercise price of $40. The Rights will become exercisable only if a person or group (an "Acquiring Person"), without the Company's consent, commences a tender or exchange offer for, or acquires 20% or more of the voting power of, the Company. In such event, each holder of Preferred Stock, other than the Acquiring Person, will be entitled to acquire that number of shares of the Company's common stock having a market value of twice the exercise price. Similarly, if, without the Company's consent, the Company is acquired in a merger or other business combination transaction, each holder of Preferred Stock, other than the Acquiring Person, will be entitled to acquire voting shares of the acquiring company having a value of twice the exercise price. The Rights may be redeemed at a price of $.01 per Right by the Company at any time prior to any person or group acquiring 20% or more of the Company's voting power or certain other triggering events, and will expire on August 22, 2001. The Company's authorized capital stock includes 500,000 shares of $100 par value preferred stock. The preferred stock may be issued in one or more series with such terms, preferences, limitations and relative rights as the Board of Directors shall determine. No Oakwood preferred stock has been issued. 31 In November 1993 Golden West redeemed for $1,150,000 cash its previously outstanding Series B preferred stock. The excess of the stated value of the Series B preferred stock over the redemption price has been reflected as additional paid-in capital in the accompanying financial statements. In fiscal 1993 the Company called for redemption two classes of convertible debentures. Of the outstanding principal balance at the redemption date, approximately $44.9 million was converted into 3,827,410 common shares and $.4 million was redeemed for cash. Primary earnings per share, computed assuming the convertible debentures had been converted into common stock as of the beginning of 1993, would have been $1.18 per share. NOTE 14--STOCK OPTION AND AWARD PLANS The Company has adopted the 1990 Long-Term Performance Plan under which 1,687,500 shares of the Company's common stock have been reserved for issuance to key employees. Awards or grants under the plan may be made in the form of incentive and nonqualified stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock and restricted unit grants, and performance equity and performance unit grants. The Company also has adopted the 1990 Director Stock Option Plan under which 112,500 shares of the Company's common stock have been reserved for grant to non-employee directors of the Company. The exercise price of options granted is the fair market value of the Company's common stock on the date of grant. Options granted under the plan become exercisable six months from the date of grant and expire 10 years from the date of grant. The Company has a 1985 Nonqualified Stock Option Plan under which 585,937 shares of the Company's common stock were reserved for issuance to key employees. The plan authorizes two types of options--Book Value Stock Options and Fair Market Value Stock Options. The exercise price of Book Value Stock Options is the undiluted book value per common share as of the most recent quarter end prior to the date of exercise. Fair Market Value Stock Options may be granted with an exercise price of not less than 100% of the fair market value of the Company's common stock on the date of grant. When exercising a Book Value Stock Option, an employee is entitled to receive a loan from the Company for the exercise amount plus, at the discretion of the Board of Directors, an amount equal to any taxes payable by such employees as a result of such exercise. Compensation expense under these plans was approximately $2,017,000, $619,000 and $1,086,000 in 1995, 1994 and 1993, respectively. The following table summarizes the changes in the number of shares under option pursuant to the plans described above and pursuant to certain earlier plans under which options may no longer be granted: Number Per share of shares option price ---------------------------- Outstanding at September 30, 1992 1,960,520 $3.24-$13.63 Granted 109,034 9.38-25.50 Exercised (431,526) 3.47-11.94 Terminated (61,202) 8.76-9.38 --------- Outstanding at September 30, 1993 1,576,826 3.24-25.50 Granted 216,000 23.07-29.44 Exercised (144,378) 3.47-22.19 Terminated (14,500) 22.19-23.50 --------- Outstanding at September 30, 1994 1,633,948 3.24-29.44 Granted 176,000 21.44-27.56 Exercised (164,549) 3.47-29.44 Terminated (26,012) 6.66-27.13 --------- Outstanding at September 30, 1995 1,619,387 3.24-29.44 ========= Exercisable at September 30, 1995 717,372 3.24-29.44 ========= Shares reserved for future grant September 30, 1994 673,154 September 30, 1995 514,154 NOTE 15--EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS The Company maintains profit-sharing, employee stock ownership ("ESOP") and 401(k) plans in which substantially all employees who have met certain age and service requirements may participate. Contributions to the profit-sharing plan and ESOP are determined at the discretion of the Board of Directors; employees contributions to these plans are not permitted. Employee contributions to the 401(k) plan are limited to a percentage of their compensation and are matched by the Company on a sliding scale subject to certain limitations. Compensation cost under the profit-sharing and 401(k) plans was approximately $837,000, $806,000 and $588,000 in 1995, 1994 and 1993, respectively. During 1995 the Company loaned approximately $2,398,000 million to the ESOP to enable the ESOP to purchase Company common stock on the open market. The ESOP refinanced the Company's loan with the proceeds of a loan from a commercial bank which the Company has guaranteed; the Company has reflected the note payable as a liability in the accompanying balance sheet. The bank loan provides that shares are released ratably upon repayment of the principal of the loan. Compensation cost relating to shares acquired with the proceeds of the loan is measured by reference to the fair value of the shares committed to be released 32 during the period, in accordance with Statement of Position 93-6. Compensation cost relating to shares acquired under similar arrangements prior to fiscal 1995 was measured using the shares allocated method; all of such shares were committed to being released on or before September 30, 1994. Total compensation cost under the plan was approximately $1,067,000, $1,471,000 and $440,000 in 1995, 1994 and 1993, respectively. At September 30, 1995 the ESOP held a total of 254,681 shares of the Company's common stock having a fair value of approximately $9 million. Of the total number of shares, 10,057 shares have been committed to be released, 91,443 shares are held in suspense and the balance, representing shares acquired using cash contributed to the ESOP in excess of its debt service requirements and shares acquired in prior years, have been allocated to plan participants. NOTE 16--FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS The Company is a party to on- and off-balance sheet financial instruments as a result of its financing and funding activities. On-balance sheet financial assets include loans originated in conjunction with retail home sales, loans purchased from third parties, trade receivables arising from sales of homes to independent dealers and other receivables. The Company has estimated the fair value of consumer loans receivable by discounting the estimated future cash flows relating thereto using interest rates which approximate the interest rates charged by Oakwood Acceptance as of year end for loans of similar character and duration. Due to their short-term nature, the fair values of trade and other receivables approximates their carrying values. The Company estimates the fair value of retained regular and residual interests in REMIC securitizations treated as sales of receivables based upon default, prepayment and interest rate assumptions which management believes market participants would use for similar instruments. However, there exists no active market for manufactured housing residual REMIC interests or uniformly accepted valuation methodologies. Based on current estimates, management believes that the fair value of the Company's retained REMIC interests approximates their carrying values. On-balance sheet financial obligations consist of amounts outstanding under the Company's short-term credit facilities and notes and bonds payable. The Company estimates the fair values of debt obligations using rates currently offered to the Company for borrowings having similar character, collateral and duration or, in the case of the Company's outstanding reset debentures, by reference to quoted market prices. There were no outstanding forward interest rate agreements in place at September 30, 1995 and the amount of such agreements in place at September 30, 1994 was not material. The following table sets forth the carrying amounts and estimated fair values of the Company's on-balance sheet financial instruments at September 30, 1995 and 1994. 1995 1994 -------------------------------------------- Estimated Carrying Estimated Carrying fair value amount fair value amount -------------------------------------------- (in thousands) Assets Cash and cash equivalents $ 6,189 $ 6,189 $ 16,974 $ 16,974 Receivables and investments Loans held for sale 246,372 244,593 136,615 136,615 Loans held for investment Fixed rate loans 173,135 160,732 194,682 183,784 Variable rate loans 12,813 12,813 14,612 14,612 Trade receivables 8,025 8,025 7,480 7,480 Other receivables 14,591 14,591 11,144 11,144 Less: reserve for uncollectible receivables -- (8,611) -- (10,796) Retained REMIC regular interests 28,133 28,133 22,811 22,811 Retained REMIC residual interests 20,599 20,599 6,628 6,628 Liabilities Short-term borrowings 154,400 154,400 25,000 25,000 Notes and bonds payable Fixed rate obligations 144,389 139,641 173,072 172,057 Variable rate obligations 59,171 59,171 35,933 35,933 33 NOTE 17--QUARTERLY FINANCIAL DATA (UNAUDITED) The accompanying financial statements for 1994 and 1993 have been retroactively restated to include the financial position and results of operations of Destiny for all periods presented, as described in Notes 1 and 3.

The manufactured housing segment includes the Company's retail and manufacturing operations. The Company's retail business purchases homes primarily from the Company's manufacturing operations but supplements these purchases in certain markets with purchases from third party manufacturers. The Company's manufacturing operations sell the majority of its homes to the Company's retail operations, with a lesser portion distributed through independent dealers. The manufactured housing segment also includes the Company's communities development arm, which is engaged in developing both rental communities and manufactured housing subdivisions. Prior to fiscal 1995, the communities development operations were reported as a separate business segment. These operations have been combined with the manufactured housing segment in 1995 (with prior years' information similarly reclassified) because these operations have been redirected principally to a retail support role and are not significant to the Company's consolidated financial position and results of operations. The financial services segment provides retail financing to customers of the manufactured housing segment as well as to customers of independent retail dealers. This segment both originates and services loans, and securitizes the loans in the public and private markets as a source of capital. The segment also reinsures credit life insurance risk on policies sold to retail customers. Segment operating income is income before general corporate expenses, non-financial interest expense, investment income and income taxes. Identifiable assets include those assets directly related to the Company's operations in the different segments; general corporate assets consist principally of cash, certain property and other investments. 1995 1994 1993 ---------------------------------- (in thousands) Revenues Manufactured housing(1) $758,370 $606,725 $432,685 Financial services 61,995 56,771 50,051 Investment income 1,047 1,114 1,000 ---------------------------------- $821,412 $664,610 $483,736 ================================== Operating income Manufactured housing(1)(2) $ 60,806 $ 48,812 $ 35,235 Financial services 24,449 19,899 11,304 ---------------------------------- Combined 85,255 68,711 46,539 Non-financial interest expense (2,259) (1,149) (1,706) Investment income 1,047 1,114 1,000 General corporate expenses(3) (11,046) (11,967) (4,906) ---------------------------------- Income before income taxes $ 72,997 $ 56,709 $ 40,927 ================================== Identifiable assets Manufactured housing $286,147 $197,738 $138,065 Financial services 477,262 375,507 437,617 General corporate 19,231 17,152 21,268 ---------------------------------- $782,640 $590,397 $596,950 ================================== Depreciation and amortization Manufactured housing $ 5,683 $ 3,782 $ 3,841 Financial services 765 784 818 General corporate 1,830 960 410 ---------------------------------- $ 8,278 $ 5,526 $ 5,069 ================================== Capital expenditures Manufactured housing $ 25,276 $ 23,911 $ 11,038 Financial services 956 511 680 General corporate 15,638 3,803 2,351 ---------------------------------- $ 41,870 $ 28,225 $ 14,069 ================================== (1) Includes a gain of approximately $1.6 million in 1993 from the sale of manufactured housing communities (2) Includes one-time charges of approximately $663,000 in 1995 relating to the sale of a manufactured housing facility (3) Includes one-time charges of approximately $537,000 in 1995 relating to downsizing corporate overhead staff at Golden West and $150,000 for costs associated with the Destiny acquisition; includes one-time charges of approximately $1.3 million in 1994 for costs relating to the Golden West acquisition 35 - ------------------------------------- REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS - ------------------------------------- Price Waterhouse LLP [LOGO] To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of Oakwood Homes Corporation In our opinion, based upon our audits and the reports of other auditors, the accompanying consolidated balance sheet and the related consolidated statements of income, of cash flows and of changes in shareholders' equity present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Oakwood Homes Corporation and its subsidiaries at September 30, 1995 and 1994, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended September 30, 1995, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management; our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We did not audit the financial statements of Golden West Homes, a wholly-owned subsidiary, which statements reflect total revenues of $89,564,000 for the year ended December 25, 1993 (see Note 1). We also did not audit the financial statements of Destiny Industries, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary, which statements reflect total assets of $15,210,000 at October 1, 1994 and total revenues of $89,080,000 and $71,766,000 for the years ended October 1, 1994 and October 2, 1993, respectively (see Note 1). Those statements were audited by other auditors, whose reports thereon have been furnished to us, and our opinion expressed herein, insofar as it relates to the amounts included for Golden West Homes and for Destiny Industries, Inc., is based solely on the reports of the other auditors. We conducted our audits of these statements in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards which require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits and the reports of other auditors provide a reasonable basis for the opinion expressed above. /s/ Price Waterhouse LLP Winston-Salem, North Carolina October 31, 1995 - ----------------------- COMMON STOCK PRICES - ----------------------- 1995 1994 1993 1992 1991 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Quarter High Low High Low High Low High Low High Low - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ First 26 5/8 20 3/4 28 5/8 22 5/8 21 3/8 13 11 7 5/8 6 4 1/8 Second 27 21 3/4 29 3/4 20 3/8 23 1/2 17 1/2 16 1/2 10 1/8 9 5/8 5 3/4 Third 27 1/8 23 1/4 23 3/4 19 1/4 21 1/4 17 1/4 15 3/4 10 1/8 10 1/8 6 3/4 Fourth 36 3/8 25 7/8 29 1/8 22 3/8 26 1/8 20 3/4 15 10 1/2 9 3/8 6 7/8 - ------------------------ DIVIDEND INFORMATION - ------------------------ The Company declared a cash dividend of $.02 per common share during each of the eight quarters in the period ended September 30, 1995. 36 SHAREHOLDER INFORMATION GUIDE DIRECTORS Ralph L.
