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

GENERAL

         The Company's business has shown significant revenue growth since 1991,
as net sales increased annually from $143 million to over $453 million in seven
years. The sales in 1998 were 10.5% ahead of the 1997 record year. The increase
in sales resulted from the continued strength of both the economy and the
manufactured housing and recreational vehicle industries, as well as strategic
business acquisitions made during late 1997 and fiscal 1998.

         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, 1999 Compared to Quarter Ended March 31, 1998

         Net Sales. Net sales increased by $2.4 million, or 2.3%, from $105.0
million in the quarter ended March 31, 1998 to $107.4 million in the quarter
ended March 31, 1999. This sales increase was attributable to higher unit
production in the manufactured housing and recreational vehicle industries. The
Company's sales are 60% to manufactured housing, 20% to recreational vehicles,
and 20% to other industrial industries.

         Gross Profit. Gross profit increased by approximately $0.7 million, or
5.5%, from $13.3 million in the first quarter of 1998, to $14.0 million in the
same quarter of 1999. As a percentage of net sales, gross profit increased from
12.6% in the first quarter of 1998 to 13.0% in 1999. The increase in gross
profit was due to certain operations showing improvement over the same 1998
quarter, while highly competitive market pricing of many of the Company's
products continued in the first quarter of 1999.

         Warehouse and Delivery Expenses. Warehouse and delivery expenses
increased approximately $0.1 million, or 3.0%, from $3.7 million in 1998 to $3.8
million in the 1999 first quarter. As a percentage of net sales, warehouse and
delivery expenses increased from 3.5% in the first quarter of 1998 to 3.6% in
1999.

         Selling, General, and Administrative Expenses. To make the year to year
comparison similar, a $0.6 million gain has been removed from the selling,
general, and administrative expenses discussion. Selling, general, and
administrative expenses increased by approximately $0.5 million, or 8.1%, from
$6.3 million in 1998, to $6.8 million in 1999. As a percentage of net sales,
selling, general, and administrative expenses increased from 6.0% in 1998 to
6.3% in 1999. Expense increases were partially attributable to the Management
Information System implementation expenses and additional personnel required as
a result of the growth the Company has experienced over the last several years.





         Operating Income. Operating income increased by approximately $0.7
million because of the gain on the sale of real estate and increased gross
profits. As a percentage of net sales, operating income increased from 3.1%
in1998 to 3.7% in the 1999 first quarter.

         Interest Expense. Interest expense, net of interest income, increased
by approximately $0.1 million in 1999 from $254,000 in 1998 to $366,000 in 1999.
The Company's borrowing level increased because of a new industrial revenue bond
issued in the third quarter of 1998 and the Company had less invested funds in
1999.

         Net Income. Net income increased by approximately $0.4 million from
$1.8 million in the 1998 first quarter to $2.2 million in 1999. This increase is
primarily attributable to the factors described above.


Quarter Ended March 31, 1998 Compared to Quarter Ended March 31, 1997

         Net Sales. Net sales increased by $8.1 million, or 8.3%, from $96.9
million in the quarter ended March 31, 1997 to $105.0 million in the quarter
ended March 31, 1998. This sales increase was attributable to higher unit
production in the manufactured housing and recreational vehicle industries, and
increased penetration in the other industries served by Company. The Company's
sales are 62% to manufactured housing, 18% to recreational vehicles, and 20% to
other industrial industries.

         Gross Profit. Gross Profit increased by approximately $1.3 million, or
10.9%, from $12.0 million in the first quarter of 1997, to $13.3 million in the
same 1998 quarter. As a percentage of net sales, gross profit increased from
12.3% in the first quarter of 1997 to 12.6% in 1998. The increase in gross
profit was due to certain manufacturing operations showing improvement over the
same 1997 quarter, while highly competitive market pricing of many of the
Company's products continued in the first quarter of 1998.

         Warehouse and Delivery Expenses. Warehouse and delivery expenses
increased approximately $0.3 million, or 9.5%, from $3.4 million in 1997 to $3.7
million in the 1998 first quarter. As a percentage of net sales, warehouse and
delivery expenses remained the same at 3.5%.

         Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. Selling, general and
administrative expenses increased by approximately $1.4 million, or 29.1%, from
$4.9 million in 1997, to $6.3 million in 1998. As a percentage of net sales,
selling, general, and administrative expenses increased from 5.0% in 1997 to
6.0% in 1998. Expense increases were partially attributable to new Management
Information System expenses and additional personnel required due to the growth
the Company has experienced over the last several years, and for management
transition plans.

         Operating Income. Operating income decreased by approximately $0.4
million because of the increased selling, general and administrative expenses.
As a percentage of net sales, operating income decreased from 3.8% in 1997 to
3.1% in the 1998 first quarter.

         Interest Expense, Net. Interest expense, net of interest income,
decreased by approximately $34,000 in 1998 from $288,000 in 1997 to $254,000 in
1998. The Company's borrowing level was slightly lower in the 1998 first quarter
and more funds were invested than in 1997.

         Net Income. Net income decreased by approximately $275,000 from $2.1
million in the 1997 first quarter to $1.8 million in 1998. This decrease is
primarily attributable to the factors described above.

Laminating Segment Discussion

         Net Sales in the 1999 period were lower in this segment by 8.3%. One
operation was closed in June of 1998 that represented approximately $3.2 million
less sales in the March 31, 1999 quarter, and another operation was started in
March of 1998 that contributed approximately $1.0 million of additional sales to
the 1999 period. The Company also chose not to meet some competitive market
pricing situations with certain existing business.

         Operating income in the laminating segment increased 16.9% in the 1999
period and as a percentage of sales, the increase was from 4.0% to 5.1%. The
Company reduced material costs in most operations by increasing selling prices
when raw product costs increased and by reducing the sales of lower margin
business.

Distribution Segment Discussion

         Net sales in the 1999 quarter increased by 18.4% in the distribution
segment primarily because of the growth in the manufactured housing and
recreational vehicle industries, which this segment serves.

         The operating income from this segment increased by 84.9%. Gross profit
margins increased and distribution expenses, selling, general and administrative
expenses all decreased as percentages of sales in the 1999 period. These factors
and the increased sales provided this positive income change.

Wood Segment Discussion

         Net sales in the wood segment increased by 5.4% in the 1999 first
quarter.

         The overall operating results also showed no significant change in the
1999 period, with losses showing a slight reduction as percentages of sale from
7.8% in the 1998 first quarter to 7.1% in the current year. Several operations
in this segment had operating income improvement in the 1999 period, while one
operation had operating income gains offset by the relocation and consolidation
of one of its facilities.

Other Segment Discussion

         Net sales in this segment were lower in 1999 by 14% from the first
quarter of 1998 primarily because the Company's aluminum extrusion division had
to shut down one press for major repairs.

         The operating income in this segment was lower by 51.2%. The reduced
sales in the extrusion operation and inventory cost increases in another
division accounted for most of the income reduction.



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 beginning September 15, 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 2000.

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


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.


YEAR 2000 ISSUE

         The Company began a new management information system implementation
project in the first quarter of 1996, which when fully implemented, will result
in the Company's information systems being Year 2000 compliant. The project was
started because of the need to upgrade all hardware and software to meet
capacity and information needs at present and for the future. The Year 2000
issue for internal information systems would be resolved since the new hardware
and software should be compliant when implemented.

         The Company at present has successfully implemented this Year 2000
compliant system in accounting, finance, general ledger, and distribution
operations. Implementation has also been completed at two of six wood product
operations, nine of ten laminating operations, and the shade and thermoforming
operations. The remaining laminating operation is scheduled to be completed in
the second quarter of 1999. The remaining cabinet door and two other operations
are scheduled to be implemented during the year with anticipated completion in
November.

         In the event that the scheduled implementations get delayed,
contingency plans allow basic conversion of existing software to the new system
so it would be Year 2000 compliant prior to the year 2000.

         The Company has developed a Year 2000 plan to address risk assessment
in areas other than information technology. The Plan Committee is examining all
automated plant systems and external parties with whom the Company interacts.
This assessment is scheduled to be completed by mid-year in 1999. The Company's
contingency plans for external party compliance are to replace any
telecommunications and other equipment that cannot be made compliant. A risk
assessment of customers, vendors, and service providers is underway and will be
on-going. At present the assessment shows that the companies responding are
either compliant or will be compliant prior to January 1, 2000.

         The total cost of Year 2000 activities cannot be specifically
determined because the internal information system project was planned for
management and operation purposes and Year 2000 compliance was a benefit of that
system. The expenditures of implementing the new information hardware and
software systems has been $2.87 million in 1996, $1.93 million in 1997, $1.42
million in 1998, and $0.12 million in the first quarter of 1999. Approximately
$0.8 million will be expended during the balance of 1999 to complete the
project. The costs of assessment of external party compliance is minimal and
costs of replacement of telecommunications and other equipment has been and will
be part of normal scheduled upgrades.

INFLATION

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