NOTE 4.           EARNINGS PER SHARE
                  ------------------

                  The Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting
                  Standards (SFAS) No. 128, "Earnings Per Share" in 1997. SFAS
                  No. 128 simplifies the computation of earnings per share
                  ("EPS") previously required in Accounting Principles Board
                  (APB) Opinion No. 15, "Earnings Per Share," by replacing
                  primary and fully diluted EPS with basic and diluted EPS.
                  Under SFAS No. 128, basic EPS is calculated by dividing net
                  income by the weighted-average common shares outstanding
                  during the period. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution
                  to basic EPS that could occur upon conversion or exercise of
                  securities, options, or other such items, to common shares
                  using the treasury stock method based upon the
                  weighted-average fair value of the Company's common shares
                  during the period. SFAS No. 128 was required to be adopted by
                  the Company in its year-end 1997 Annual Report, and earnings
                  per share for prior periods have been restated in accordance
                  with SFAS No. 128.

The Company is preparing to construct a new facility in Goshen, Indiana to
replace a leased facility. This facility will be funded with long-term debt. The
expansion of the Bloomsburg, Pennsylvania facility will be finalized in the
third quarter. This expansion has been funded by working capital. Cash and
Short-term Investments totaled $5,171,110 at July 4, 1998. Inventories have
increased by $1,075,214 during 1998. The increase results in part from the
inventory required to support the higher revenues and also from seasonal
requirements. Management expects these inventories to be somewhat reduced by
year end. Management does not foresee any events which will adversely affect its
liquidity during 1998, and, further, the Company's financial condition is more
than adequate to finance internal growth and any additional acquisitions of
businesses.

Thirteen Week Period Ended July 4, 1998, (Second Quarter 1998) compared to
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------
Thirteen Week Period Ended June 28, 1997, (Second Quarter 1997)
- --------------------------------------------------------------

Net sales for the Second Quarter 1998 were $13,709,226, compared to $11,777,358
for the same period the previous year, a 16.4% increase. Net sales to all
markets reflected increases with the largest increase of 37.9% coming from sales
to the recreational vehicle market.

Cost of products sold increased to 78.0% in the Second Quarter 1998 compared to
74.8% a year ago. The increase is the result of higher costs associated with the
growth of existing businesses.

Selling and administrative expenses decreased to 12.3% in 1998 compared to 13.7%
in 1997. The favorable variance can be attributed to the increased sales from
existing and acquired businesses.

Net income increased 3.7% to $911,903 from $879,544 for the same period a year
ago. Basic earnings per share rose to 25 cents per share from 24 cents in the
second quarter of last year.


Twenty-six Week Period Ended July 4, 1998, (First Six Months of 1998) compared
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
to Twenty-six Week Period Ended June 28, 1997, (First Six Months of 1997)
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------

Net sales for the first six months 1998 were $26,358,930, compared to
$21,163,901 for the same period the previous year, a 24.5% increase. Net sales
to all markets reflected increases with the largest increase coming from sales
to the recreational vehicle market. Sales from comparable operations accounted
for $2,315,387, or almost 45%, of the increase; the remaining increase of
$2,879,642 is attributed to the acquisitions made in 1997.

Cost of products sold increased to 77.3% in the Second Quarter 1998 compared to
74.3% a year ago. The increase is the result of higher cost of products sold
percentages attributable to the acquired businesses and from the higher costs
associated with the growth of existing businesses.

Selling and administrative expenses were $3,348,633 in the first six months of
1998 versus $3,050,310 in the first six months of 1997. Most of the increase is
attributable to the selling and administrative expenses of the acquired
businesses. As a percentage of sales, selling and administrative expenses
decreased to 12.7% in 1998 compared to 14.4% in 1997. The favorable variance can
be attributed to the increased sales from existing and acquired businesses.

Income from continuing operations increased 13% to $1,791,790 from $1,610,668 in
the first six months of 1997. Basic earnings per share rose to 49 cents per
share from 43 cents in the first six months of last year.
