MANAGEMENT'S  DISCUSSION  AND  ANALYSIS OF  FINANCIAL  CONDITION  AND RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS

GENERAL

         The three month  period  ended March 31, 2002 was the first  quarter to
show an increase  in sales over the  previous  year since the second  quarter of
1999. The third quarter of 1999 marked the beginning of the Company's  declining
revenue. Net sales for the twelve month period ending December 31, 1999 finished
at a record high of $457 million and  continued to decline up through the twelve
month period ending  December 31, 2001 which finished at $293 million.  This 36%
decline in sales  volume  over a two year  period is the  result of the  overall
downturn in the Manufactured Housing and Recreational Vehicle industries.

         The downturn in the  Manufactured  Housing industry began in the fourth
quarter of 1999 due to retail sales lots being  overstocked  and unit production
being reduced  approximately  7% that year. In 2001 and 2000,  the  Manufactured
Housing industry was down nearly 23% and 29%, respectively, in units shipped and
produced,  due to the limited  availability of dealer and retail  financing,  as
well as excessive retail inventory  levels,  which included  repossessed  units.
Shipments for the first quarter of 2002 were flat compared to the same period in
2001. These conditions are expected to continue through the rest of this year.

         The  Recreational  Vehicle industry decline began in the second quarter
of 2000 due to the Recreational  Vehicle dealers making  inventory  corrections.
The end  result of this was an  approximate  7%  decline  in units  shipped  and
produced in 2000 and a 14% decline in units  shipped and  produced in 2001.  The
first quarter of 2002 had positive results with an increase in units shipped and
produced of almost 8% compared to the previous year.  Preliminary signs indicate
that  this  industry  is  slowly  coming  out  of the  down  cycle  that  is has
experienced for the last 18 months.

         While conditions in these two industries are uncertain, the Company has
made significant cost cutting measures,  plant closings, and consolidations over
the past two years to more efficiently operate at reduced volumes. The Company's
sales for the quarter ended March 31, 2002 were 47% to Manufactured Housing, 28%
to Recreational Vehicle, and 25% to other industries.

         The following table sets forth the percentage relationship to net sales
of certain items in the Company's Statements of Operations:

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Quarter Ended March 31, 2002 Compared to Quarter Ended March 31, 2001

         Net Sales.  Net sales  increased  $6.9  million,  or 10.2%,  from $68.3
million  for the quarter  ended March 31, 2001 to $75.2  million for the quarter
ended  March 31,  2002.  This  increase is  attributable  to an  approximate  8%
increase in units  shipped and  produced in the  Recreational  Vehicle  industry
coupled  by a change in the sales mix of core  industries  to which the  Company
supplies. The Company's sales to the Manufactured Housing, Recreational Vehicle,
and other industries was 47%, 28%, and 25%, respectively,  for the quarter ended
March 31, 2002. At December 31, 2001 the Company's sales to these industries was
51%, 24%, and 25%, respectively.

         Gross Profit.  Gross profit increased by approximately $2.6 million, or
37.4%, from $7.1 million in 2001 to $9.7 million in 2002. As a percentage of net
sales, gross profit increased  approximately  2.5%. The increase in gross profit
is due to increased  sales as well as the Company making  significant  strategic
cost  cutting   measures  in  2000  and  2001,   including  plant  closings  and
consolidations,  eliminating  low margin  business,  and certain fixed  overhead
expenses.

         Warehouse  and  Delivery  Expenses.  Warehouse  and  delivery  expenses
remained  constant at $3.4  million for the  quarters


                                       8



ending March 31, 2002 and 2001.  As a  percentage  of net sales,  warehouse  and
delivery expenses decreased 0.4%, from 5.0% in the first quarter of 2001 to 4.6%
in the first  quarter of 2002.  The decrease,  as a percentage of net sales,  is
attributable  to  increased  sales  levels which has allowed the Company to ship
more full truckloads than in the previous year and a reduction in the fleet size
that the Company owns or leases.

         Selling,  General, and Administrative Expenses.  Selling,  general, and
administrative  expenses decreased by $0.7 million,  or 11.3%, from $6.3 million
in the  quarter  ending  March 31, 2001 to $5.6  million for the quarter  ending
March  31,  2002.  As  a  percentage  of  net  sales,   selling,   general,  and
administrative  expenses  decreased 1.8%, from 9.3% the first quarter of 2001 to
7.5% in the first  quarter  of 2002.  The  decreases  in both  dollars  and as a
percentage of net sales is due to the Company making significant  strategic cost
cutting measures in 2001 which has reduced the fixed portion of these expenses.

         Operating Income (Loss).  The Company  experienced  operating income of
$681,000  in the first  quarter of 2002  compared to an  operating  loss of $2.7
million in the first quarter of 2001. The increase in operating income is due to
the factors described above.

         Interest  Expense,  Net.  Interest  expense,  net  of  interest  income
decreased 2.7%, or $7,000 from $238,000 in the first quarter of 2001 compared to
$231,000 in the first quarter of 2002.  The slight change  represents a decrease
in  interest  expense  due to lower long term debt  levels  and a  corresponding
decrease in interest  income due to the declining  interest  rates over the past
year on funds invested.

         Net Income (Loss). The Company had net income of $270,000 for the first
quarter of 2002  compared to a net loss of $1.7 million in the first  quarter of
2001. The increase in net income is attributable to the factors described above.


Quarter Ended March 31, 2001 Compared to Quarter Ended March 31, 2000

         Net Sales. Net sales decreased by $31.5 million,  or 31.6%,  from $99.8
million in the  quarter  ended  March 31,  2000 to $68.3  million in the quarter
ended March 31,  2001.  This  decrease was a direct  result of an estimated  42%
decrease in units shipped and produced in the Manufactured  Housing industry and
an estimated 24% decrease in units shipped in the Recreational  Vehicle industry
in the first quarter 2001.

         Gross Profit.  Gross profit decreased by $3.7 million,  or 34.1%,  from
$10.8  million in the first quarter of 2000 compared to $7.1 million in the same
quarter of 2001. As a percentage of net sales,  gross profit decreased 0.4% from
10.8% in the first  quarter of 2000 to 10.4% in the first  quarter of 2001.  The
overall  decrease was due to a 31.6%  decrease in  consolidated  net sales.  The
decrease in gross  profits as a percentage  of net sales  indicates  that market
conditions  were still  highly  competitive  resulting  in the  inability of the
Company to increase selling prices without losing business.

         Warehouse  and  Delivery  Expenses.  Warehouse  and  delivery  expenses
decreased  $0.7 million  from $4.1 million in the first  quarter of 2000 to $3.4
million in the first quarter of 2001.  As a percentage  of net sales,  warehouse
and delivery  expenses  increased 0.9% from 4.1% in the first quarter of 2000 to
5.0% in the first quarter of 2001.  This increase is attributable to lower sales
levels  and higher  shipping  costs  specifically  related  to the  increase  in
gasoline  prices  over the past year and  transportation  companies  running  at
capacity.

         Selling,  General, and Administrative Expenses.  Selling,  general, and
administrative  expenses  decreased $0.5 million,  or 7.4%, from $6.8 million in
the quarter  ended March 31, 2000 to $6.3 million in the quarter ended March 31,
2001.  As a  percentage  of net  sales,  selling,  general,  and  administrative
expenses  increased  2.4% from 6.9% in the first  quarter of 2000 to 9.3% in the
first quarter of 2001.  The overall  decrease is due to the Company  making cost
and staffing  reductions.  The increase in costs as a percentage of net sales is
due  to  reduced  volumes  as a  result  of  the  decline  in  shipments  in the
Manufactured Housing and Recreational Vehicle industries.

         Impairment  Charges.  The  Company recognized  an impairment  charge of
$6.9 million in the first quarter of 2000.

         Operating  Loss.  The operating loss decreased from $7.2 million in the
first  quarter  of 2000 to $2.7  million  in the  first  quarter  of  2001.  The
operating  loss for the first quarter of 2000 is due primarily to the impairment
charges of $6.9 million and similar operating costs from quarter to quarter. The
operating  loss for the first  quarter  of 2001 is due to the  decline  in sales
volume related to the industries which the Company serves.


                                       9



         Interest  Expense,  Net.  Interest  expense,  net of  interest  income,
decreased  24.2% from  $314,000 in the first  quarter of 2000 to $238,000 in the
same period in 2001. This decrease is attributable to more funds invested in the
first  quarter 2001 as a result of reduced  working  capital  needs,  as well as
lower long-term debt levels due to normal debt service requirements.

         Net Loss.  The Company  experienced a net loss after interest and taxes
in the  first  quarters  of 2000 and  2001 of $4.6  million  and  $1.7  million,
respectively. These losses are attributable to the factors described above.



BUSINESS SEGMENTS

Quarter Ended March 31, 2002 Compared to Quarter Ended March 31, 2001

Laminating Segment Discussion

         Net sales  increased by 12.0%,  or $3.8 million,  from $32.1 million in
quarter ended march 31, 2001 to $35.9  million in the same period in 2002.  This
increase is  attributable  to the  approximate  8% increase in units shipped and
produced in the Recreational  Vehicle industry coupled with an increase in sales
as a result of consolidating certain business units into this segment in 2001.

         EBIT  increased  $1.5  million from a loss of $0.4 million in the first
quarter  of 2001 to income of $1.1  million in the first  quarter of 2002.  This
increase  is  attributable  to  increased  sales as well as the  strategic  cost
cutting measures that the Company took in 2000 and 2001.

Distribution Segment Discussion

         Net sales increased $3.7 million,  or 16.6%,  from $22.2 million in the
first  quarter  of 2001 to $25.8  million  in the first  quarter  of 2002.  This
increase  is  due  to an  increase  in  sales  in the  southeast  region  of the
Manufactured Housing industry.

         EBIT increased  $141,000 from a loss of $33,000 in the first quarter of
2001 to income of $108,000 in the first quarter of 2002. This increase is due to
the increased  sales volume and lower operating  expenses  compared to the first
quarter of 2001.

Wood Segment Discussion

         Net sales increased  $724,000,  or 9.4%, from $7.7 million in the first
quarter of 2001 to $8.4 million in the first  quarter of 2002.  This increase is
consistent with the overall increase in the Recreational Vehicle industry, which
is the primary industry to which this segment serves.

         The operating loss in this segment decreased from a loss of $125,000 in
the first quarter of 2001 to a loss of $15,000 in the first quarter of 2002. The
Company has made  significant  strides in the  improvement of certain  operating
divisions in this segment, however, certain other divisions in this segment have
experienced  operating  inefficiencies  causing  them  to be  unprofitable.  The
results from these  unprofitable  divisions have mitigated the overall  positive
results of the segment.

Other Segment Discussion

         Net sales in the Other segment  decreased 10.3%, or $1.1 million,  from
$10.6  million  in the  quarter  ending  March 31,  2001 to $9.5  million in the
quarter  ending  March  31,  2002.  This  decline  is  due to  the  closing  and
consolidation  of one division in the first quarter of 2001 and two divisions in
the 4th quarter of 2001 in this segment.

                                       10



         Operating  income in this segment  increased from a loss of $852,000 in
the first quarter of 2001 to operating income of $88,000 in the first quarter of
2002. This increase is attributable  to the closing and  consolidation  of three
unprofitable divisions in this segment in 2001.


Quarter Ended March 31, 2001 Compared to Quarter Ended March 31, 2000

Laminating Segment Discussion

         Net sales  decreased in the first quarter of 2001 by $13.3 million,  or
29.3%, from $45.4 million in the period ended March 31, 2000 to $32.1 million in
the  period  ended  March 31,  2001.  This  decline  in sales  volume was due to
approximately 42% less shipments nationwide in the Manufactured Housing industry
as well as  declines  of up to 44% in some  of the  Company's  principal  market
areas.

         EBIT  declined  179.0% in the  laminating  segment  from income of $0.5
million in the period ended March 31, 2000 compared to a loss of $0.4 million in
the period ended March 31, 2001.  As a percentage of net sales,  EBIT  decreased
2.3% from  positive 1.1% in the first quarter 2000 to negative 1.2% in the first
quarter 2001. This decline is due to the decrease in sales volume.

Distribution Segment Discussion

         Net sales decreased 38.3%, or $13.7 million,  from $35.9 million in the
first quarter 2000 to $22.2 million in the first quarter 2001.  This decrease is
due primarily to the decline in units  shipped and produced in the  Manufactured
Housing industry.

         EBIT decreased  108.3%,  or $430,000,  due to the decrease in sales and
competitive pricing situations.

Wood Segment Discussion

         Net sales decreased  22.4%,  or $2.2 million,  from $9.9 million in the
period  ended March 31, 2000 to $7.7 million in the period ended March 31, 2001.
This decline is consistent with the overall decline in the Recreational  Vehicle
industry, which is the primary industry to which this segment serves.

         EBIT for this segment has increased  $538,000 from an operating loss of
$663,000 in period ended March 31, 2000 to an operating  loss of $125,000 in the
same period in 2001.  Management's  continued  commitment to improving operating
results in this segment and returning it to profitability caused the improvement
of two of the segment's  major  operating  units.  The decrease in the operating
loss is partially due to reduced  depreciation  of  approximately  $250,000 as a
result of the  Company  recognizing  a non-cash  accounting  charge in the first
quarter of 2000 related to the impairment of certain long-lived assets.

Other Segment Discussion

         Net sales in the other  segment  decreased by 32.2%,  or $5.1  million,
from $15.7  million in the three months ended March 31, 2000 to $10.6 million in
the three month  period  ending  March 31,  2001.  This  decrease  is  primarily
attributable to a 24% decline in shipments in the Recreational  Vehicle industry
as well as a 29% reduction in sales in the Company's aluminum extrusion division
which sells to areas mainly outside the  Manufactured  Housing and  Recreational
Vehicle industries.

         EBIT  decreased  from an operating  loss of $52,000 in the period ended
March 31, 2000 to an operating loss of $852,000 in the same period in 2001. This
is the result of a 32.2% decrease in sales volume as well as competitive pricing
situations which negatively affected margins in this segment.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

           The  Company's  primary  capital  requirements  are to  meet  working
capital  needs,  support its capital  expenditure  plans,  and meet debt service
requirements.

           The Company, in September,  1995, issued to an insurance company in a
private placement $18,000,000 of senior unsecured notes. The ten year notes bear
interest at 6.82%,  with  semi-annual  interest  payments that began in 1996 and
seven annual principal  repayments of $2,571,428 that began in September,  1999.
These  funds  were used to reduce  existing  bank debt and for  working  capital
needs.

           The Company has an unsecured  bank  revolving  credit  agreement that
provides loan availability of $10,000,000 with maturity in the year 2003.
           Pursuant  to the  private  placement  and the Credit  Agreement,  the
Company is required  to  maintain  certain  financial  ratios,  all of which are
currently complied with.

           The Company's Board of Directors from time to time has authorized the
repurchase  of shares  of the  Company's  common  stock,  in the open  market or
through negotiated transactions,  at such times and at such prices as management
may decide.

           The  Company   believes  that  cash  generated  from  operations  and
borrowings  under its credit  agreements  will be sufficient to fund its working
capital requirements,  normal recurring capital  expenditures,  and common stock
repurchase  program as  currently  contemplated.  The changes in  inventory  and
accounts receivable balances, which affect the Company's cash flows, are part of
normal business cycles that cause them to change periodically.

         A summary of our contractual  cash  obligations  remaining at March 31,
2002 and for the twelve month periods ending 2003 through 2006 is as follows:

         We  believe  that  our cash  balance,  availability  under  our line of
credit,  if needed,  and anticipated cash flows from operations will be adequate
to fund our cash requirements for fiscal 2002.


CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

         Our significant  accounting policies are summarized in the footnotes to
our financial statements.  Some of the most critical policies are also discussed
below.

         As a matter of policy,  we review our major assets for impairment.  Our
major  operating  assets are accounts  receivable,  inventory,  and property and
equipment.  We have not experienced significant bad debts losses and our reserve
for doubtful accounts of $200,000 should be adequate for any exposure to loss in
our March 31, 2002 accounts  receivable.  We have also established  reserves for
slow  moving and  obsolete  inventories  and  believe  them to be  adequate.  We
depreciate our property and equipment over their  estimated  useful lives and we
have not identified any items that are impaired.


                                       12



SEASONALITY

         Manufacturing  operations in the Manufactured  Housing and Recreational
Vehicle  industries  historically  have been  seasonal and are  generally at the
highest levels when the climate is moderate.  Accordingly,  the Company's  sales
and profits are generally highest in the second and third quarters.


PURCHASE OF PROPERTY

         The Company  agreed to purchase  in 2002 a  presently  leased  building
complex  near its  principal  offices in Elkhart,  Indiana for $2 million from a
major shareholder and Chairman Emeritus of the Company.


INFLATION

         The Company does not believe that  inflation  had a material  effect on
results of operations for the periods presented.


SAFE HARBOR STATEMENT

         Statements   that   do   not   address   historical   performance   are
"forward-looking  statements"  within  the  meaning  of the  Private  Securities
Litigation  reform  Act of 1995  and  are  based  on a  number  of  assumptions,
including but not limited to; (1) continued  domestic economic growth and demand
for the Company's  products;  and (2) the  Company's  belief with respect to its
capital expenditures,  seasonality and inflation. Any developments significantly
deviating from these assumptions could cause actual results to differ materially
from those forecast or implied in the aforementioned forward-looking statements.
