                          DREW INDUSTRIES INCORPORATED
                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


1.   BASIS OF PRESENTATION

     The Consolidated  Financial  Statements presented herein have been prepared
by the Company in  accordance  with the  accounting  policies  described  in its
December 31, 2000 Annual  Report on Form 10-K and should be read in  conjunction
with the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements which appear in that report.

     In the opinion of management,  the information  furnished in this Form 10-Q
reflects  all  adjustments  necessary  for a fair  statement  of the  results of
operations as of and for the six and three month periods ended June 30, 2001 and
2000. All such  adjustments are of a normal recurring  nature.  The Consolidated
Financial  Statements have been prepared in accordance with the  instructions to
Form 10-Q and therefore do not include some  information  and notes necessary to
conform with annual reporting requirements.

2.   SEGMENT REPORTING

     The Company has two reportable operating segments, the manufactured housing
products  segment  (the "MH  segment")  and the  recreational  vehicle  products
segment (the "RV  segment").  The MH segment  manufactures a variety of products
used in the construction of manufactured  homes,  including windows and screens,
chassis and chassis  parts,  thermo-formed  bath and shower  units,  axles,  and
galvanized  roofing.  The MH segment also  distributes new tires and refurbishes
used axles and tires which it supplies to producers of manufactured  homes.  The
RV  segment  manufactures  a  variety  of  products  used in the  production  of
recreational vehicles,  including windows, doors and chassis. The MH segment and
the RV segment  primarily sell their  products to the producers of  manufactured
homes and  recreational  vehicles,  respectively.  Each  segment  also  supplies
related products to other industries, but sales of these products represent less
than 5 percent of the segment's net sales. The Company has only an insignificant
amount of intersegment sales.

     Decisions  concerning the allocation of the Company's resources are made by
the  presidents of the  Company's  operating  subsidiaries  and the president of
Drew.  This group  evaluates the  performance of each segment based upon segment
profit or loss,  defined as income before interest,  amortization of intangibles
and income taxes. The accounting policies of the MH and RV segments are the same
as those described in Note 1 of Notes to Consolidated  Financial Statements,  of
the Company's December 31, 2000 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

3.   ACQUISITION

     On June 1, 2001, the Company's  subsidiary,  Kinro, acquired the assets and
business of the Better Bath division of Kevco, Inc. Better Bath manufactures and
sells thermo-formed bath and shower units for the manufactured  housing industry
and had sales of approximately $27.7 million in 2000.

     The  acquisition  has  been  accounted  for as a  purchase.  The  aggregate
purchase  price  of  approximately  $9.4  million  has  been  allocated  to  the
underlying assets based upon their respective  estimated fair values. The excess
of purchase price over the fair value of net assets  acquired  ("goodwill")  was
approximately $3.2 million,  which is being amortized over 20 years. The results
of the  acquired  business  have been  included  in the  Company's  consolidated
statement of income beginning June 1, 2001.

4.   INVENTORIES

     Inventories are valued at the lower of cost (using the first-in,  first-out
method)  or  market.  Cost  includes  material,  labor and  overhead;  market is
replacement cost or realizable value after allowance for costs of distribution.

6.   WEIGHTED AVERAGE COMMON SHARES OUTSTANDING

     Net income per diluted  common share  reflects the dilution of the weighted
average  common  shares by the assumed  issuance of common stock  pertaining  to
stock  options and warrants.  The  numerator,  which is equal to net income,  is
constant  for both the  basic  and  diluted  earnings  per  share  calculations.
Weighted  average  common shares  outstanding - diluted is calculated as follows

                          DREW INDUSTRIES INCORPORATED
                     MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
           FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)

     The Company has two reportable operating segments, the manufactured housing
products  segment  (the "MH  segment")  and the  recreational  vehicle  products
segment (the "RV segment").  The MH segment,  which  accounted for 59 percent of
consolidated  net sales for the six months ended June 30, 2001 and 65 percent of
the annual  consolidated net sales for 2000,  manufactures a variety of products
used in the construction of manufactured  homes,  including windows and screens,
chassis and chassis  parts,  thermo-formed  bath and shower  units,  axles,  and
galvanized  roofing.  The MH segment also  distributes new tires and refurbishes
used axles and tires which it supplies to producers of manufactured  homes.  The
RV segment, which accounted for 41 percent of consolidated net sales for the six
months ended June 30, 2001 and 35 percent of the annual  consolidated  net sales
for  2000,  manufactures  a  variety  of  products  used  in the  production  of
recreational vehicles,  including windows, doors and chassis. The MH segment and
the RV segment  primarily sell their  products to the producers of  manufactured
homes and  recreational  vehicles,  respectively.  Each  segment  also  supplies
related products to other industries, but sales of these products represent less
than 5 percent of the segment's net sales.

     On June 1, 2001, the Company's  subsidiary,  Kinro, acquired the assets and
business of the Better Bath division of Kevco, Inc. Better Bath manufactures and
sells thermo-formed bath and shower units for the manufactured  housing industry
and had sales of approximately $27.7 million in 2000.

     The  acquisition  has  been  accounted  for as a  purchase.  The  aggregate
purchase  price  of  approximately  $9.4  million  has  been  allocated  to  the
underlying assets based upon their respective  estimated fair values. The excess
of purchase price over the fair value of net assets  acquired  ("goodwill")  was
approximately $3.2 million,  which is being amortized over 20 years. The results
of the  acquired  business  have been  included  in the  Company's  consolidated
statement of income beginning June 1, 2001.

     The Company's  operations are performed  through its four primary operating
subsidiaries.  Kinro, Inc. ("Kinro") and Lippert  Components,  Inc. ("LCI") have
operations  in both the MH and RV segments,  while  Lippert Tire and Axle,  Inc.
("LTA")  and Coil  Clip,  Inc.  ("Coil  Clip")  operate  entirely  within the MH
segment.  At June 30, 2001 the Company's  subsidiaries  operated 42 plants in 18
states and Canada.

MH SEGMENT

     Net sales of the MH segment  decreased  26 percent in the six months  ended
June 30, 2001 and 18 percent in the second  quarter,  from the same periods last
year.  The  industry  reported  a  35  percent  decrease  in  the  industry-wide
production  of  manufactured  homes for the six months  ended  June 2001,  which
moderated  to 29% in the second  quarter.  Excluding  sales of the  Better  Bath
operation,  which has been included in the Company's  consolidated  statement of
income since June 1, 2001,  net sales  decreased  27% for the six months and 21%
for the quarter. Sales of refurbished axles and tires by the MH segment declined
more than sales of other MH products due to  continuing  competitive  pressures,
and the closure of two of such facilities during the first quarter.

     Operating  profit of the MH segment  decreased 17 percent in the first half
of 2001, but increased 23 percent in the second quarter from the same periods in
2000 despite the reduction in sales.  Labor and overhead costs,  which increased
in the first quarter,  moderated in the second quarter. Material costs continued
to be stable,  except for steel,  which came down  approximately 5 percent since
last  year's  second  quarter.  For the  quarter  and six  months,  efficiencies
improved, resulting in improved margins in contrast to last year, which incurred
startup and plant  consolidation  costs. Lower production costs in the first six
months of 2001 offset last year's cost  increases that could not be passed on to
customers.  Selling,  general and  administrative  expenses  were down in dollar
terms,  however,  they increased as a percentage of sales because of lower sales
and fixed costs.  There have been no significant  selling price increases in the
years 2000 and 2001.

                     AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)


     While there  continues to be a reduction in  industry-wide  inventories  of
manufactured  homes, and while mortgage  interest rates for  manufactured  homes
have reportedly declined, a significant increase in industry-wide  production of
manufactured  homes is not  anticipated  until (i) inventory  levels are further
reduced,  (ii) repossessions  return to normal levels, (iii) credit availability
improves, and (iv) manufactured housing mortgage interest rates decline further.
Several of these factors are currently showing improvement.

RV SEGMENT

     Net sales of the RV segment  increased  6 percent in the first half of 2001
and 8 percent in the second quarter as a result of the  continuing  expansion of
the  Company's RV chassis  product line and the RV window  line.  Such  increase
compares  favorably to the 20 percent  decrease in shipments  reported by the RV
industry for the first six months of 2001. Historically, sales of RV's have been
closely tied to consumer confidence levels,  which have remained relatively high
despite uncertain economic conditions. New RV models are typically introduced by
the industry each July, when prior year models are closed out and new models are
stocked.  Orders for new models  during  the  summer  are  partly  dependent  on
retailers'  level  of  inventory  of old  models.  Some  analysts  believe  that
retailers have been reducing  inventory in order to lower their interest  costs.
Lower  inventories  of old models at retailers may aid  producers'  sales of new
models. In addition,  recent interest rate cuts by the Federal Reserve Board and
the stabilization of gasoline prices should further help the RV industry.

     Operating  profit  decreased  5  percent  for the  six  month  period,  but
increased 9 percent in the second quarter.  Improved  operating  efficiencies in
the five plants opened since early 2000 resulted in higher margins in the second
quarter,   however,   this  was  offset  by  increases  in  delivery  and  plant
administrative costs.

AMORTIZATION OF INTANGIBLES

     Amortization  of  intangibles  for the six months was $96,000 less than the
prior year's  period,  as a result of the $6.9 million  writedown of goodwill in
the fourth  quarter of 2000,  partially  offset by additions  resulting from the
acquisition described in Note 3 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

INTEREST EXPENSE, NET

     Interest  expense,  net  increased  $380,000  for the six month  period and
$56,000 for the quarter,  as a result of the  increase in average debt  balances
resulted  from the funds  expended for five new  factories and $13.5 million for
treasury stock in 2000. This increase was partially offset by savings  resulting
from interest rate reductions and operating cash flow.

NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

     In June 1998,  the  Financial  Accounting  Standards  Board  (FASB)  issued
Statement of Financial  Accounting  Standards  (SFAS) No. 133,  "Accounting  for
Derivative  Instruments  and Hedging  Activities."


                                       13

           MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
                     AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)


In June  1999,  the  FASB  issued  SFAS  No.  137,  "Accounting  for  Derivative
Instruments  and Hedging  Activities  - Deferral of the  Effective  Date of FASB
Statement  No. 133," which delays the  effective  date of SFAS No. 133 to fiscal
years beginning after June 15, 2000. In June 2000, the FASB issued SFAS No. 138,
"Accounting  for Derivative  Instruments and Hedging  Activities,"  which amends
some of the  provisions of SFAS No. 133. The Company has adopted the  provisions
of SFAS No. 133 and SFAS No. 138  effective  January 1, 2001.  The  adoption  of
these  statements  does not have a material  impact on the earnings or financial
position of the Company.

     In July 2001, the FASB issued Statement No.141, ("Business  Combinations"),
and Statement No.142,  ("Goodwill and Other Intangible  Assets").  Statement 141
requires  that the  purchase  method  of  accounting  be used  for all  business
combinations  initiated  after  June  30,  2001 as well as all  purchase  method
business  combinations  completed  after  June  30,  2001.  Statement  141  also
specifies  criteria  intangible  assets  acquired in a purchase  method business
combination must meet to be recognized and reported apart from goodwill,  noting
that any purchase price allocable to an assembled workforce may not be accounted
for separately.  Statement 142 will require that goodwill and intangible  assets
with  indefinite  useful lives no longer be  amortized,  but instead  tested for
impairment at least annually in accordance with the provisions of Statement 142.
Statement  142 will also require that  intangible  assets with  definite  useful
lives  be  amortized  over  their  respective  estimated  useful  lives to their
estimated  residual values,  and reviewed for impairment in accordance with SFAS
No.121  ("Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived  Assets and for Long-Lived
Assets to Be Disposed Of").

     The  Company  is  required  to  adopt  the   provisions  of  Statement  141
immediately,  and  Statement  142 effective  January 1, 2002.  Furthermore,  any
goodwill and any intangible asset  determined to have an indefinite  useful life
that are acquired in a purchase  business  combination  completed after June 30,
2001 will not be amortized,  but will continue to be evaluated for impairment in
accordance  with  the  appropriate   pre-Statement  142  accounting  literature.
Goodwill  and  intangible  assets  acquired in business  combinations  completed
before  July 1, 2001 will  continue  to be  amortized  prior to the  adoption of
Statement 142.

     Statement 141 will require upon adoption of Statement 142, that the Company
evaluate its existing intangible assets and goodwill that were acquired in prior
purchase business combinations,  and to make any necessary  reclassifications in
order to conform  with the new  criteria  in  Statement  141.  Upon  adoption of
Statement  142,  the Company  will be required to reassess  the useful lives and
residual  values  of  all  intangible   assets  acquired  in  purchase  business
combinations,  and make any necessary amortization period adjustments by the end
of the first  interim  period  after  adoption.  In  addition,  to the extent an
intangible asset is identified as having an indefinite  useful life, the Company
will be required to test the intangible  asset for impairment in accordance with
the provisions of Statement 142 within the first interim period.  Any impairment
loss  will  be  measured  as of the  date  of  adoption  and  recognized  as the
cumulative  effect  of a change in  accounting  principle  in the first  interim
period.

     In  connection  with  the  transitional  goodwill  impairment   evaluation,
Statement 142 will require the Company to perform an assessment of whether there
is an  indication  that  goodwill  is impaired  as of the date of  adoption.  To
accomplish  this the Company must identify its reporting units and determine the
carrying value of each  reporting unit by assigning the assets and  liabilities,
including the existing goodwill and

           MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
                     AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)


intangible  assets,  to those  reporting  units as of the date of adoption.  The
Company  will then have up to six months from the date of adoption to  determine
the fair value of each  reporting  unit and compare it to the  reporting  unit's
carrying  amount.  To the extent a reporting  unit's carrying amount exceeds its
fair value,  an  indication  exists that the  reporting  unit's  goodwill may be
impaired  and the  Company  must  perform  the second  step of the  transitional
impairment  test. In the second step,  the Company must compare the implied fair
value of the reporting unit's  goodwill,  determined by allocating the reporting
unit's  fair  value  to all of its  assets  (recognized  and  unrecognized)  and
liabilities  in a manner  similar to a purchase  price  allocation in accordance
with Statement 141, to its carrying  amount,  both of which would be measured as
of the date of adoption. This second step is required to be completed as soon as
possible,  but no later than the end of the year of adoption.  Any  transitional
impairment  loss  will be  recognized  as the  cumulative  effect  of  change in
accounting principle in the Company's statement of earnings.

     As of the  date of  adoption,  the  Company  expects  to  have  unamortized
goodwill in the amount of $38.8 million and unamortized  identifiable intangible
assets in the amount of $1.3  million,  which will be subject to the  transition
provisions of Statements 141 and 142.  Amortization  expense related to goodwill
was  $1,797,000  and $775,000  for the year ended  December 31, 2000 and the six
months ended June 30, 2001, respectively. Because of the extensive effort needed
to  comply  with  adopting  Statements  141 and 142,  it is not  practicable  to
reasonably  estimate the impact of adopting  these  Statements  on the Company's
financial  statements  at  the  date  of  this  report,  including  whether  any
transitional  impairment  losses  will  be  required  to be  recognized  as  the
cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle.

2000 partly because of the slowdown in sales as well as the  anticipated  higher
inventory  requirement  of the  expanding  RV  segment.  Since  that  time,  the
Company's  efforts  to  reduce   inventories  have  been  successful.   Accounts
receivable  increased  seasonally at June 30, 2001, but the change from December
2000 is less than  normal  since the  balance at  December  2000 was higher than
typical as a result of slower collections at that time.

     Cash flows used for investing activities in 2001 consisted primarily of the
acquisition  of the assets and business of Better Bath as described in Note 3 of
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.  Capital expenditures,  primarily to
accommodate  the expansion of the RV chassis product lines were $15.0 million in
the first six months of 2000 and only $4.0 million in 2001. Capital expenditures
for all of 2000  were  approximately  $22  million,  which was  funded  from the
Company's revolving line of credit, as well as Industrial Revenue Bonds. Capital
expenditures  for 2001,  are  expected  to be $7 to $9 million  for all of 2001,

which is  expected  to be funded  from  operating  cash  flow and new  financing
secured by real estate and equipment.

     Cash flows used for financing  activities represent a net reduction in debt
of $3.7 million for the 2001 period, offset by a sale and leaseback of equipment
of $3.7 million. Cash flows provided by financing activities for the 2000 period
included  increases  in debt of  approximately  $23.1  million  offset  by $13.5
million used to acquire treasury stock.

     Availability under the Company's line of credit, which was $13.0 million at
June 30, 2001, is adequate to finance the Company's  working capital and capital
expenditure requirements. However, in 2001, the Company has refinanced a portion
of its prior year capital expenditures with new financing secured by real estate
and  equipment.  The  Company  intends  to obtain  additional  real  estate  and
equipment financing later this year.

     In July 2001,  the  Company  sold the  business of one of its axle and tire
refurbishing  factories for cash of approximately $1.8 million.  The Company had
previously closed two factories of its axle and tire business early in the year,
and now has two such refurbishing factories remaining.

     On June 16,  2000,  the Company  purchased  1,449,425  shares of its common
stock at $8.00 per share,  net to the sellers in cash,  or an aggregate of $11.8
million including  expenses,  pursuant to a self-tender offer.  Earlier in 2000,
the Company purchased, on the open market, 190,000 shares of its common stock at
an  average  cost of $8.80 per  share.  The  Company  used its line of credit to
purchase such shares.  The line of credit was increased  from $25 million to $30
million to accommodate the purchase of shares.

     The Company has outstanding $32 million of 6.95 percent,  seven year Senior
Notes.  Repayment of these notes is $8 million  annually,  of which the first $8
million payment was made in January 2001.

INFLATION

     The prices of raw  materials,  consisting  primarily  of  aluminum,  vinyl,
steel,  glass and tires,  are influenced by demand and other factors specific to
these commodities rather than being directly affected by inflationary pressures.
Prices of certain commodities have historically been volatile. In order to hedge
the impact of future price  fluctuations on a portion of its future aluminum raw
material  requirements,  the Company  periodically  purchases  aluminum  futures
contracts on the London  Metal  Exchange.  At June 30, 2001,  the Company had no
futures contracts outstanding.

FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS AND RISK FACTORS

     This report contains certain statements,  including the Company's plans and
expectations  regarding its operating strategies,  products,  and costs, and its
views of the  prospects of the  manufactured  housing and  recreational  vehicle
industries,  which are  forward-looking  statements and are made pursuant to the
safe harbor  provisions of the Securities  Litigation  Reform Act of 1995. These
forward-looking  statements  reflect

the Company's  views, at the time such statements were made, with respect to the
Company's  future  plans,  objectives,  events,  and  financial  results such as
revenues, expenses, income, earnings per share, capital expenditures,  and other
financial  items.  Forward-looking  statements  are  not  guarantees  of  future
performance;  they are subject to risks and uncertainties.  The Company does not
undertake to update  forward-  looking  statements to reflect  circumstances  or
events that occur after the date the forward-looking statements are made.

     There  are a number of  factors,  many of which are  beyond  the  Company's
control,  which could cause actual results and events to differ  materially from
those described in the forward-looking statements. These factors include pricing
pressures due to competition,  raw material costs (particularly aluminum, vinyl,
steel,  glass,  ABS resin,  and  tires),  availability  of retail and  wholesale
financing for manufactured  homes,  availability  and costs of labor,  inventory
adjustments by retailers and manufacturers,  interest rates, and adverse weather
conditions impacting retail sales. In addition,  general economic conditions may
affect the retail sale of manufactured homes and recreational vehicles.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURE ABOUT MARKET RISK

     The  Company  is  exposed  to  market  risk  in the  normal  course  of its
operations  due to its purchases of certain  commodities,  and its investing and
financing activities.

     Certain raw materials, particularly aluminum, vinyl, steel, glass and tires
are subject to price  volatility.  While effective  hedges for most of these raw
materials are not available, the Company periodically purchases aluminum futures
contracts to hedge the impact of future price  fluctuations  on a portion of its
aluminum raw material requirements. At June 30, 2001, the Company had no futures
contracts outstanding.

     The Company is exposed to changes in interest  rates  primarily as a result
of its financing activities.  At June 30, 2001, the Company had $47.7 million of
fixed rate debt.  Assuming a decrease of 100 basis points in the  interest  rate
for  borrowings  of a  similar  nature,  which  the  Company  becomes  unable to
capitalize  on in the  short-term as a result of the structure of its fixed rate
financing,  future cash flows would be affected by approximately $.5 million per
annum.

     The  Company  also has a $30 million  line of credit,  that is subject to a
variable  interest  rate. At June 30, 2001,  $15.0 million of the line of credit
was utilized.  Assuming an increase of 100 basis points in the interest rate for
borrowings under these variable rate loans, and outstanding  borrowings of $15.0
million, future cash flows would be affected by $.2 million per annum.

     In  addition,  the  Company is exposed  to changes in  interest  rates as a
result of  temporary  investments  in  government  backed  money  market  funds,
however,  such  investing  activity is not material to the  Company's  financial
position, results of operations, or cash flow.

     If the actual change in interest rates is substantially  different than 100
basis points,  the net impact of interest  rate risk on the Company's  cash flow
may be materially different than that disclosed above.
