                earnings per share includes the dilutive effect of stock
                options. In accordance with SFAS No. 128, the following is a

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

FINANCIAL CONDITION
- -------------------

The Company's financial condition, as measured by the following ratios,
continues to be strong at the end of the First Quarter 1999.

                                         April 3, 1999      January 2, 1999
                                         -------------      ---------------
           Current Ratio                      2:42               2:59
           Quick Ratio                        1:54               1:49
           LT Debt to Total Capital          13.79%              3.45%
           Working Capital                 $8,048,214         $8,244,161

Days sales outstanding in accounts receivable were 34.2 days at April 3, 1999
compared to 35.3 days at April 4, 1998. Accounts receivable increased by more
than 29%. Inventories were reduced by 12% during the quarter. A significant use
of working capital was for the purchase of Common Stock for Treasury
($1,253,200) during the quarter.

In February 1999, the construction of a new building in Goshen, Indiana was
completed at a cost of approximately $1,240,000. This building replaced a leased
facility. During 1999, the Company was awarded an industrial revenue bond in the
amount of $1,500,000, the net proceeds of which will be used for the funding of
this building and the purchase of equipment at this location. Cash and
Short-Term Investments totaled $3,366,709 at April 3, 1999. Management does not
foresee any events which will adversely affect its liquidity during 1999, and,
further, the Company's financial condition is more than adequate to finance
internal growth and any additional acquisitions of businesses.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
- ---------------------

The following tables show the percentage relationship to net sales of certain
items in the Company's Statement of Earnings:

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations. (Continued)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Thirteen Week Period Ended April 3, 1999, (First Quarter 1999) compared to
Thirteen Week Period Ended April 4, 1998, (First Quarter 1998)
- --------------------------------------------------------------

Net sales for the First Quarter 1999 were $13,211,871, compared to $12,649,704
for the same period in the previous year, a 4.4% increase. This increase was the
result of growth in sales to the recreational vehicle market.

Cost of products sold increased to 78.1% in the First Quarter 1999 compared to
76.4% a year ago. This increase is largely attributable to (1) a change in the
product mix including the increased sales to recreational vehicle manufacturers
and (2) productivity issues resulting in excessive labor costs and (3) market
conditions which have resulted in a lowering of operating margins.

Selling and administrative expenses were $1,781,393 in the First Quarter 1999
versus $1,662,130 in the First Quarter 1998. A portion of the increased
expenses, approximately $40,000, results from the relocation of the Goshen
facility during the quarter.

Interest and investment income was $53,000 less in the First Quarter 1999 than
the amount earned in the First Quarter 1998. The lower income in the current
period was due to a market loss on investments versus a market gain a year ago
and from smaller investable balances in the current quarter.

Net income decreased to $703,016 from $879,895 for the same period a year ago
but improved from $577,589 achieved in the prior quarter. Basic earnings per
share decreased to 20 cents per share from 24 cents in the first quarter of last
year.

Year 2000 Issues

The Year 2000 issue is the result of computer programs being written using two
digits rather than four to define the applicable year. Any computer programs
that have date-sensitive software may recognize a date using "00" as the year
1900 rather than the year 2000. This could result in system failure or
miscalculations causing disruptions in operations, including, among other
things, a temporary inability to process transactions, generate invoices, or
engage in similar normal business activities.

Based on management's assessment, the Company determined that it would be
required to modify or replace portions of its software and hardware so that its
computer systems will properly recognize dates beyond December 31, 1999. The
majority of the Company's manufacturing processes are not dependent on
computers. The Company presently believes that with modification or replacement
of software and hardware, the Year 2000 issue can be mitigated. If such
modifications and replacements are not made, or are not completed timely, the
Year 2000 issue would not have a material adverse effect on the Company. The
Company has created no formal contingency plans in the event that the Year 2000
readiness is not completed on schedule. However, the Company believes that this
would cause only minor problems and delays.

The Company plans to complete the Year 2000 project during the third quarter of
fiscal 1999. The total cost incurred to date related to the Year 2000 project,
which have been charged to expense, have not been material, and the Company does
not anticipate that the expected remaining costs will be material.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations. (Continued)
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The Company has initiated formal communications with all of its significant
suppliers and large customers to determine the extent to which the Company is
vulnerable to those third parties' failure to remedy their own Year 2000 issues.
Failure on the part of these entities to timely remediate their Year 2000 issues
could result in disruptions in the Company's supply of materials, disruptions in
its customers' ability to conduct business and interruptions to the Company's
daily operations. Management believes that its exposure to third party risk is
minimal because it does not rely significantly on any one supplier or customer.
There can be no guarantee, however, that the systems of other unrelated entities
on which the Company's systems and operations rely will be corrected on a timely
basis and will not have a material adverse effect on the Company.
