NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) 1. Basis of Presentation The condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, which included only normal recurring adjustments, which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair and accurate presentation. Certain footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been omitted. The condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements for the year ended March 28, 1997. Results of operations for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for a full year. 2. Acquisitions On August 1, 1996, the Company acquired an additional 58.4% of Newco Homes, Inc. ("Newco"), a Texas-based retailer of manufactured homes. The Company had previously owned 41.6% of Newco's outstanding shares. The Company's purchase price for the remaining 58.4% of Newco's outstanding shares consisted of $17.3 million cash and 1,805,556 shares of the Company's common stock. Prior to the acquisition of the remaining 58.4% of Newco, the Company recorded its 41.6% equity interest in the net earnings of Newco as income from affiliate. 3. Stock Dividend On June 24, 1997, the Board of Directors of the Company declared a 5-for-4 stock split effected in the form of a 25% stock dividend to shareholders of record on July 8, 1997. The stock dividend was paid on July 21, 1997. Historical common share and per share data for all periods presented have been adjusted to reflect the stock split. 4.

Other Assets Other assets include goodwill of $29.3 million at September 26, 1997 and $28.7 at March 28, 1997, with accumulated amortization of $2.0 million and $1.3 million, respectively. 6. Floor Plan Payable The Company has floor plan credit facilities totaling $67.0 million from financial institutions to finance a major portion of its home inventory at the Company's retail superstores. These facilities are secured by a portion of the Company's home inventory and cash in transit from financial institutions. Interest rates range from prime (8.5% at September 26, 1997) to prime plus one-quarter percent. The Company had $46.8 million and $45.3 million outstanding on these credit facilities at September 26, 1997 and March 28, 1997, respectively. 7. Line of Credit On July 11, 1997, the Company obtained a $25.0 million unsecured revolving line of credit from a financial institution for general corporate purposes. The line of credit bears interest, at the option of the Company (under certain conditions), at either the LIBOR rate plus .625% or the prime rate minus 1%. The line of credit contains provisions regarding minimum net worth requirements and certain indebtedness limitations which would limit the amount available for future borrowings. The line of credit also requires an annual commitment fee of $20,000 and is available through July 10, 1999. There was no amount outstanding on this line of credit at September 26, 1997. 8. Reclassification Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. 5 7 PART I. FINANCIAL INFORMATION Item 1.

THREE MONTHS ENDED SIX MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 26, SEPTEMBER 27, SEPTEMBER 26, SEPTEMBER 27, 1997 1996 1997 1996 ---- ---- ---- ---- Company homes sold through Company-owned retail superstores 1,892 1,055 3,707 1,516 Total new homes sold 3,448 3,767 6,925 7,062 Internalization rate (1) 55% 28% 54% 21% Average new home price - retail $56,000 $53,000 $55,000 $55,000 Number of retail superstores at end of period 63 51 63 51 Manufacturing shipments 3,404 3,263 7,041 6,715 Manufacturing shipments to Independent dealers 1,804 2,267 3,757 5,266 (1) The internalization rate is the percentage of new homes that are manufactured by the Company and sold through Company-owned retail superstores. 6 8 THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 26, 1997 COMPARED TO THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 27, 1996 NET SALES. Net sales increased 0.3% to $153.1 million in the second quarter of fiscal 1998 from $152.7 million in the second quarter of fiscal 1997. Although retail sales increased 24% and wholesale sales increased 2%, the minimal increase in consolidated net sales of 0.3% was due primarily to two factors. First, a rise in the internalization rate from 28% in the quarter ended September 27, 1996 to 55% in the quarter ended September 26, 1997, limited sales growth as more of the homes manufactured by the Company were sold through Company-owned retail superstores. Second, net sales were impacted by the increase in retail stock inventory as the number of Company-owned retail superstores increased from 51 in the second quarter of fiscal 1997 to 63 in the second quarter of fiscal 1998. GROSS PROFIT. Gross profit increased 16.7% to $40.2 million in the quarter ended September 26, 1997 compared to $34.5 million in the quarter ended September 27, 1996. During the same period, gross profit margin as a percentage of net sales increased to 26.3% compared to 22.6%. This increase was primarily the result of selling 55% of the Company's homes through Company-owned retail superstores in the second quarter of fiscal 1998 versus 28% in the second quarter of fiscal 1997 and production efficiencies at maturing manufacturing facilities. SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased 12.7% to $27.1 million in the quarter ended September 26, 1997 from $24.0 million in the quarter ended September 27, 1996, primarily due to increased promotion and advertising expenditures as well as start-up expenses for nine retail superstores and a manufacturing facility. As a percentage of net sales, selling, general and administrative expenses increased, as planned, to 17.7% in the second quarter of fiscal 1998 from 15.7% in the second quarter of fiscal 1997. This planned increase is due to the growth in the Company's retail operations which, generally, have higher selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of net sales as compared to wholesale operations. INCOME FROM OPERATIONS. As a result of the foregoing factors, income from operations increased 26.1% to $13.1 million in the quarter ended September 26, 1997 compared to $10.4 million in the quarter ended September 27, 1996. INTEREST EXPENSE. Interest expense increased 34.7% to $1.13 million for the second quarter of fiscal 1998 from $.84 million in the second quarter of fiscal 1997. This increase was primarily due to an increase in the floor plan credit facilities. OTHER INCOME. Other income increased 44.2% to $.64 million in the second quarter of fiscal 1998 from $.44 million in the second quarter of fiscal 1997. This increase was primarily the result of additional interest earned due to an increase in the loan portfolio originated by CountryPlace Mortgage, Ltd., the Company's finance subsidiary. SIX MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 26, 1997 COMPARED TO SIX MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 27, 1996 NET SALES. Net sales increased 14.2% to $312.2 million in the six months ended September 26, 1997 from $273.5 million in the six months ended September 27, 1996. Of this 7 9 increase, 7.6% was due to the acquisition of the remaining 58.4% of Newco following the first quarter of fiscal 1997 resulting in net sales from those acquired retail superstores in the first quarter of fiscal 1998 not to have comparable net sales from the first quarter of fiscal 1997. Although retail sales increased 79% and wholesale sales increased 3%, consolidated net sales increased only 14.2% due primarily to two factors. First, a rise in the internalization rate from 21% in the six months ended September 27, 1996 to 54% in the six months ended September 26, 1997 limited sales growth as more of the homes manufactured by the Company were sold through Company-owned retail superstores. Second, net sales were impacted by the increase in retail stock inventory as the number of Company-owned retail superstores increased from 51 in the six months ended September 27, 1996 to 63 in the six months ended September 26, 1997. GROSS PROFIT. Gross profit increased 41.4% to $80.8 million in the six months ended September 26, 1997 compared to $57.1 million in the six months ended September 27, 1996. During the same period, gross profit margin as a percentage of net sales increased to 25.9% compared to 20.9%. This increase was primarily the result of selling 54% of the Company's homes through Company-owned retail superstores in the six months ended September 26, 1997 versus 21% in the six months ended September 27, 1996 and production efficiencies at maturing manufacturing facilities. SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased 37.8% to $54.6 million in the six months ended September 26, 1997 from $39.7 million in the six months ended September 27, 1996, primarily due to operating expenses related to acquired superstores and increased sales. As a percentage of net sales, selling, general and administrative expenses increased, as planned, to 17.5% in the six months ended September 26, 1997 from 14.5% in the six months ended September 27, 1996. This planned increase is due to the growth in the Company's retail operations which, generally, have higher selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of net sales as compared to wholesale operations. INCOME FROM OPERATIONS. As a result of the foregoing factors, income from operations increased 49.7% to $26.1 million in the six months ended September 26, 1997 compared to $17.4 million in the six months ended September 27, 1996. INTEREST EXPENSE. Interest expense increased 78.9% to $2.2 million for the six months ended September 26, 1997 from $1.2 million in the six months ended September 27, 1996. This increase was primarily due to an increase in the floor plan credit facilities. OTHER INCOME. Other income increased 43.2% to $1.16 million in the six months ended September 26, 1997 from $.81 million in the six months ended September 27, 1996. This increase was primarily the result of additional interest earned due to an increase in the loan portfolio originated by CountryPlace Mortgage, Ltd., the Company's finance subsidiary. INCOME FROM AFFILIATE. Income from affiliate was $1.05 million in the six months ended September 27, 1996 compared to zero in the six months ended September 26, 1997. The decrease was due to consolidating Newco's operating results with the Company's operations beginning in the second quarter of fiscal 1997. See "Acquisitions" in Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. 8 10 LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES. On July 11, 1997, the Company obtained a $25.0 million unsecured revolving line of credit from a financial institution for general corporate purposes. The line of credit bears interest, at the option of the Company (under certain conditions), at either the LIBOR rate plus .625% or the prime rate minus 1%. The line of credit contains provisions regarding minimum net worth requirements and certain indebtedness limitations which would limit the amount available for future borrowings. The line of credit also requires an annual commitment fee of $20,000 and is available through July 10, 1999. There was no amount outstanding on this line of credit at September 26, 1997. The Company has floor plan credit facilities totaling $67.0 million from financial institutions to finance a major portion of its home inventory at the Company's retail superstores. These facilities are secured by a portion of the Company's home inventory and cash in transit from financial institutions. Interest rates range from prime (8.5% at September 26, 1997) to prime plus one-quarter percent. The Company had $46.8 million and $45.3 million outstanding on these credit facilities at September 26, 1997 and March 28, 1997, respectively. The Company believes that cash flow from operations, together with floor plan financing and the revolving line of credit, will be adequate to support its working capital and planned capital expenditure needs in the foreseeable future. The Company may, from time to time, obtain additional floor plan financing for its retail inventories. Such practice is customary in the industry. However, because future cash flows and the availability of financing will depend on a number of factors, including prevailing economic and financial conditions, business and other factors beyond the Company's control, no assurances can be given in this regard. FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION. Certain statements contained in this report are forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Management is unaware of any trends or conditions that could have a material adverse effect on the Company's consolidated financial position, future results of operations or liquidity. However, investors should also be aware of factors which could have a negative impact on prospects and the consistency of progress. These include political, economic or other factors such as inflation rates, recessionary or expansive trends, taxes and regulations and laws affecting the business in each of the Company's markets; competitive product, advertising, promotional and pricing activity; dependence on the rate of development and degree of acceptance of new product introductions in the marketplace; and the difficulty of forecasting sales at certain times in certain markets. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS. In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 128, "Earnings Per Share" which will become effective in fiscal 1998. SFAS No. 128 will eliminate the disclosure of primary earnings per share which includes the dilutive effect of stock options, warrants and other convertible securities ("Common Stock Equivalents") and instead requires reporting of "basic" earnings per share, which will exclude Common Stock Equivalents. Additionally, SFAS No. 128 changes the methodology for fully diluted earnings per share. In the opinion of the Company's management, it is not anticipated that the adoption of this new accounting standard will have a material effect on the reported earnings per share of the Company. 9 11 PART II.
