Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
NOTE 1 Nature of Operations, Accounting Policies of Consolidated Financial Statements
The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the consolidated financial position as of August 31, 2014, in addition to the consolidated results of operations and the consolidated cash flows for the three-month periods ended August 31, 2014 and 2013. Due to the seasonal nature of the Corporations business, interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for the entire year.
The unaudited interim consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations for reporting on Form 10-Q. Accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosures normally accompanying the annual consolidated financial statements have been omitted. The audited consolidated balance sheet as of May 31, 2014 and the unaudited interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Corporations latest annual report on Form 10-K.
Certain prior year amounts related to domestic and Canadian net sales have been combined to conform to current year presentation.
The following is a summary of the accounting policies that have a significant effect on the Consolidated Financial Statements.
Accounting Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions. These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Key estimates would include accruals for warranty, workers compensation, marketing programs and health insurance as well as valuations for long-lived assets and deferred tax assets.
Revenue recognition Substantially all of the Corporations products are made to order. Revenue is recognized upon completion of the following: an order for a unit is received from a dealer or community (customer); written or verbal approval for payment is received from a customers financial institution or payment is received; a common carrier signs documentation accepting responsibility for the unit as agent for the customer; and the unit is removed from the Corporations premises for delivery to a customer. Freight billed to customers is considered sales revenue, and the related freight costs are cost of sales. Volume based rebates paid to dealers are classified as a reduction of sales revenue. Sales of parts are classified as revenue.
Accounts Receivable Trade receivables are based on the amounts billed to dealers and communities. The Corporation does not accrue interest on any of its trade receivables, nor does it have an allowance for credit losses due to favorable collections experience. If a loss occurs, the Corporations policy is to recognize it in the period when collectability cannot be reasonably assured.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) (Continued)
NOTE 1 Nature of Operations, Accounting Policies of Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)
Inventories Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined under the first-in, first-out method. Physical inventory counts are taken at the end of each reporting quarter.
Workers Compensation Security Deposit Deferred workers compensation deposit represents funds placed with the Corporations workers compensation insurance carrier to offset future medical claims and benefits.
Note Receivable The Corporations note receivable represents the amount owed for the sale of two idle recreational vehicle facilities in Hemet, California; less cash received on the date of closing and cash received from principal repayments through August 31, 2014. Interest is accrued on a monthly basis. No allowance for credit losses exists due to favorable collections experience. The Corporations management evaluates the credit quality of the note on a monthly basis. The Corporations policy is to recognize a loss in the period when collectability cannot be reasonably assured.
Property, Plant and Equipment Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation is computed over the estimated useful lives of the assets using the straight-line method for financial statement reporting and accelerated methods for income tax reporting purposes. Estimated useful lives for significant classes of property, plant and equipment, including idle property, are as follows: Building and improvements 10 to 30 years; machinery and equipment 5 to 8 years. At August 31 and May 31, 2014, idle property consisted of manufacturing facilities in Ocala, Florida and Elkhart, Indiana. The Corporation has for sale the idle manufacturing facility in Ocala, Florida and undeveloped land in McMinnville, Oregon.
Long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable from projected future cash flows. If the carrying value of a long-lived asset is impaired, an impairment charge is recorded for the amount by which the carrying value of the long-lived asset exceeds its fair value. The Company believes no impairment of long-lived assets exists at August 31, 2014.
Warranty The Corporation provides the retail purchaser of its homes and recreational vehicles with a full fifteen-month warranty against defects in design, materials and workmanship. The warranties are backed by service departments located at the Corporations manufacturing facilities and an extensive field service system.
Estimated warranty costs are accrued at the time of sale based upon current sales, historical experience and managements judgment regarding anticipated rates of warranty claims. The adequacy of the recorded warranty liability is periodically assessed and the amount is adjusted as necessary.

NOTE 1 Nature of Operations, Accounting Policies of Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)
Income Taxes The Corporation recognizes deferred tax assets based on differences between the carrying values of assets for financial and tax reporting purposes. The realization of the deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of sufficient future taxable income.
Generally accepted accounting principles require that an entity consider both negative and positive evidence in determining whether a valuation allowance is warranted. In comparing negative and positive evidence, continual losses in recent years is considered significant, negative, objective evidence that deferred tax assets may not be realized in the future, and generally is assigned more weight than subjective positive evidence of the realizability of deferred tax assets. As a result of its extensive evaluation of both positive and negative evidence, management maintains a full valuation allowance against its deferred tax assets. The Corporation reports a liability, if any, for unrecognized tax benefits resulting from uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. The Corporation recognizes interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits in income tax expense.
Recently issued accounting pronouncements In August 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2014-15, Presentation of Financial Statements-Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40): Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entitys Ability to Continue as a Going Concern. ASU 2014-15 is intended to define managements responsibility to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about an organizations ability to continue as a going concern and to provide related footnote disclosures. Amendments in this update are effective for the annual period ending after December 15, 2016, and for annual and interim periods thereafter. Early application is permitted. The Corporation will evaluate how the adoption of ASU 2014-15 will impact its footnote disclosures.
Managements Plan The Corporations consolidated financial statements were prepared on a going concern basis, which assumes continuity of operations and realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the ordinary course of business. Due to recurring losses, the Corporation experienced negative cash flows from operating activities. The level of historical negative cash flows from operations and not having available funding from outside financing sources raise substantial doubt about the Corporations ability to continue as a going concern. To continue as a going concern, certain strategies need to be pursued to raise capital, increase sales and decrease costs. These strategies include but are not limited to:
| During September 2014, the Corporation decided to dispose of the recreational vehicle segment in order to raise cash, and allow management to better focus on driving profitable growth in the Corporations core housing business. Additional information regarding the sale is in Note 6. |

| Increasing sales at the Mansfield, Texas housing facility by gaining a greater presence on the properties of manufactured housing dealers and manufactured housing communities. Furthermore, efforts are being made to reduce costs and gain manufacturing efficiencies. |
| Assessing the strategic positioning of the Corporations individual manufacturing facilities and initiatives to optimize financial performance at each facility |
| Continuing to work with manufactured housing communities to identify opportunities for increasing sales |
| Increasing efforts to increase sales of modular homes and park models in both the United States and Canada by cultivating relationships with modular housing developers and campground owners that are outside the Corporations historical distribution channels |
| Maintaining the number of display models at housing facilities in order to provide dealers, communities and consumers with examples of newly designed product |
| Selling non-strategic assets, such as an idle housing facility in Ocala, Florida, undeveloped land in McMinnville, Oregon and two idle recreational vehicle facilities in Elkhart, Indiana to generate cash and eliminate carrying costs |
| Working with current and potential vendors to decrease costs |
| Analyzing staffing needs and making reductions when considered appropriate by management |
| Continuing to seek debt financing that is acceptable with respect to cost and structure |
As with any business enterprise, the Corporations ability to operate as a going concern is contingent upon the successful execution of its strategies. Management, however, is prepared to modify these strategies to meet prevailing business conditions.

NOTE 6 Subsequent Event
During September 2014, the Corporation decided to discontinue its recreational vehicle operations. As a result, on October 7, 2014, the Corporation completed the sale of certain assets associated with its recreational vehicle segment (the Transaction) to Evergreen Recreational Vehicles, LLC (ERV). The Transaction was completed pursuant to the terms of an Asset Purchase Agreement entered into between the Corporation and ERV on October 7, 2014, as well as the terms of a Real Property Purchase Agreement entered into on that same date between the Corporation and an affiliate of ERV, Skyline RE Holding LLC (which, collectively with ERV, is referred to herein as Evergreen). The assets of the recreational vehicle segment disposed of in the Transaction include, but not are limited to:

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) (Continued)
NOTE 6 Subsequent Event (Continued)
| A recreational vehicle manufacturing facility consisting of approximately 135,000 square feet situated on 18.2 acres located in Bristol, Indiana; |
| Intellectual properties such as trademarks, licenses, and product designs associated with the recreational vehicle segment; |
| Furniture, machinery, software, and equipment; |
| Raw material, work-in-process, and finished goods inventories; |
| Product designs, plans, and specifications; |
| Customer purchase orders and contracts, customer lists, and supplier lists; and |
| All of the Corporations rights to the exhibit space at the 2014 RVIA Louisville Show and related show materials (although the Corporation will retain approximately 4,500 square feet of show space for its own use). |
The amount and nature of the consideration received by the Corporation for the assets sold include:
| A cash payment of $175,000; |
| A separate cash payment of approximately $806,000, less prorated property taxes of approximately $73,000 and selling expenses of approximately $2,000, for the Bristol, Indiana manufacturing facility; |
| Within 30 days of the closing date of October 7, 2014 (the Closing Date), Evergreen will pay the Corporation a cash payment for the 2014 RVIA Louisville Show space (less the retained 4,500 square feet) at the per square foot lease rate paid by the Corporation for the space; |
| For six months following the Closing Date, Evergreen will pay the Corporation 50 percent of the Corporations cost for raw materials inventory purchased by the Corporation prior to the Closing Date within 10 days of Evergreens use of the raw material. After six months following the Closing Date, the Corporation will have the right to remove any remaining materials inventory from Evergreens possession; and |
| Evergreen will pay the Corporation 50 percent of the Corporations dealer invoice price for all finished goods inventory existing prior to the Closing Date which is sold after the Closing Date within 10 business days of any sale. |
In addition, under the Asset Purchase Agreement Evergreen will not assume or agree to pay, perform, or discharge any of the Corporations liabilities or obligations, which will remain the liabilities and obligations of the Corporation.
The Bristol facility, and assets other than raw material and finished goods inventories, were sold at approximately net book value. Evergreen has the right, but not the obligation, to purchase the raw material inventory at 50 percent of the Corporations cost of approximately $1,600,000.

NOTE 6 Subsequent Event (Continued)
There can be no assurances as to how much, if any, of the raw material inventory Evergreen will purchase. Consequently, the Corporation anticipates taking a charge in the second quarter reflecting the approximate $800,000 reduction in value of the raw material inventory plus an amount that has not yet been ascertained for any raw material inventory not purchased by Evergreen. Management is in the process of determining the financial impact of other aspects of the Transaction on the Corporations results of operations for the second quarter. There may be additional charges that could be material related to the discontinued operations of the recreational vehicle segment disposed of in the Transaction.

|
Life insurance loans have no fixed repayment schedule, and have interest rates ranging from 4.2 percent to 7.4 percent. The weighted average interest rate is 5.9 percent. At August 31 and May 31, 2014, prepaid interest associated with the life insurance loans totaled approximately $142,000 and $165,000; which is recognized in Other current assets.
NOTE 8 Income Taxes
At August 31, 2014, the Corporations gross deferred tax assets of approximately $48 million consist of approximately $33 million in federal net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards, $8 million in state net operating loss carryforwards and $7 million resulting from temporary differences between financial and tax reporting. The federal net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards have a life expectancy of between sixteen and twenty years. The state net operating loss carryforwards have a life expectancy, depending on the state where a loss was incurred, between five and twenty years. The Corporation has recorded a full valuation allowance against this asset. If the Corporation, after considering future negative and positive evidence regarding the realization of deferred tax assets, determines that a lesser valuation allowance is warranted, it would record a reduction to income tax expense and the valuation allowance in the period of determination.

NOTE 9 Commitments and Contingencies
The Corporation was contingently liable at August 31 and May 31, 2014 under repurchase agreements with certain financial institutions providing inventory financing for dealers of its products. Under these arrangements, which are customary in the manufactured housing and recreational vehicle industries, the Corporation agrees to repurchase units in the event of default by the dealer at declining prices over the term of the agreement. The period to potentially repurchase units is between 12 to 24 months.
The maximum repurchase liability is the total amount that would be paid upon the default of the Corporations independent dealers. The maximum potential repurchase liability, without reduction for the resale value of the repurchased units, was approximately $62 million at August 31, 2014 and approximately $63 million at May 31, 2014. As a result of favorable experience regarding repurchased units, which is largely due to the strength of dealers selling the Corporations products, the Corporation maintained at August 31 and May 31, 2014, a $100,000 loss reserve that is a component of other accrued liabilities.
The risk of loss under these agreements is spread over many dealers and financial institutions. The loss, if any, under these agreements is the difference between the repurchase cost and the resale value of the units. The Corporation estimates the fair value of this commitment considering both the contingent losses and the value of the guarantee. This amount has historically been insignificant. The Corporation believes that any potential loss under the agreements in effect at August 31, 2014 will not be material to its financial position or results of operations.
In the first quarter of fiscal 2015, 11 recreational vehicles were repurchased for approximately $203,000; resulting in a loss of approximately $43,000. In the first quarter of fiscal 2014, there were no obligations or net losses from repurchased units.
The Corporation is a party to various pending legal proceedings in the normal course of business. Management believes that any losses resulting from such proceedings would not have a material adverse effect on the Corporations results of operations or financial position.
The Corporation utilizes a combination of insurance coverage and self-insurance for certain items, including workers compensation and group health benefits. Liabilities for workers compensation are recognized for estimated future medical costs and indemnity costs. Liabilities for group health benefits are recognized for claims incurred but not paid. Insurance reserves are estimated based upon a combination of historical data and actuarial information. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

Overview
The Corporation designs, produces and markets manufactured housing, modular housing and recreational vehicles (travel trailers, fifth wheels and park models) to independent dealers and manufactured housing communities located throughout the United States and Canada. To better serve the needs of its dealers and communities, the Corporation has ten manufacturing facilities in nine states. Manufactured housing, modular housing and recreational vehicles are sold to dealers and communities either through floor plan financing with various financial institutions or on a cash basis. While the Corporation maintains production of manufactured housing, modular homes and recreational vehicles throughout the year, seasonal fluctuations in sales do occur. Sales and production of manufactured housing and modular housing are affected by winter weather conditions at the Corporations northern plants. Recreational vehicle sales are generally higher in the spring and summer months than in the fall and winter months.
Manufactured and modular housing are marketed under a number of trademarks, and are available in a variety of dimensions. Manufactured housing products are built according to standards established by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development. Modular homes are built according to state, provincial or local building codes. Recreational vehicles include travel trailers, fifth wheels and park models. Travel trailers and fifth wheels are marketed under the following trademarks: Dart Javelin Layton Nomad Trident; and Weekender. Park models are marketed under the following trademarks: Kensington Shore Park Stone Harbor and Vacation Villa. The Corporations recreational vehicles are intended to provide temporary living accommodations for individuals seeking leisure travel and outdoor recreation.
Manufactured Housing, Modular Housing and Recreational Vehicle Industry Conditions
Sales of manufactured housing, modular housing and recreational vehicles are affected by the strength of the U.S. economy, interest rate and employment levels, consumer confidence and the availability of wholesale and retail financing. The manufactured housing industry had been affected by declining unit shipments to historically low levels. Shipments totaled approximately 373,000 units in 1998; steadily declining to approximately 50,000 units by 2010. This decline was caused primarily by adverse economic conditions, tightening retail and wholesale credit markets and a depressed site-built housing market.

Item 2. | Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations. |
Manufactured Housing, Modular Housing and Recreational Vehicle Industry Conditions (Continued)
Shipments, however, increased to approximately 52,000, 55,000 and 60,000 units in 2011, 2012 and 2013, respectively. From January to August 2014, shipments were approximately 42,000 units; an approximately 6 percent increase from the same period a year ago.
Tight credit markets for retail and wholesale financing have become a significant challenge for the manufactured housing industry. According to the Manufactured Housing Institute, a lack of retail financing options and restrictive credit standards has negatively affected manufactured home buyers. In addition, a significant decline has occurred in wholesale financing, especially as national floor plan lenders have decreased lending to industry dealers.
The domestic modular housing industry experienced challenges similar to the manufactured housing industry. From calendar 2006 to 2012, total industry shipments decreased from approximately 39,000 to 13,000 units, a decline of 67 percent. In 2013, industry shipments increased to approximately 14,000 units. From January to June 2014, shipments were approximately 6,400 units; an approximately 5 percent decrease from the same period a year ago. Information related to the Canadian modular housing industry is not available.
Sales of recreational vehicles are influenced by changes in consumer confidence, employment levels, the availability of retail and wholesale financing and gasoline prices. Industry unit sales of travel trailers and fifth wheels have varied in recent years. From calendar 2007 to the first half of 2009 unit sales decreased as a result of recessionary conditions, decreased household wealth, tightening credit markets for retail and wholesale financing, and excess inventory of new recreational vehicles. Unit sales, however, started increasing in the last half of calendar 2009 and continue to date. The Recreational Vehicle Industry Association (RVIA) notes that continued growth in recreational vehicle shipments is due to a combination of continued gains in household wealth and jobs. These positive factors, however, could be negatively affected by risks involving geopolitical tensions.
First Quarter Fiscal 2015 Results
The Corporation experienced the following results during the first quarter of fiscal 2015:
| Total net sales were $57,429,000, an approximate 17 percent increase from the $48,994,000 reported in the same period a year ago |
| Housing net sales were $47,740,000, an approximate 31 percent increase from the $36,434,000 realized in the first quarter of fiscal 2014 |
| Recreational vehicle net sales were $9,689,000 in the first quarter of fiscal 2015, an approximate 23 percent decrease from $12,560,000 in the first quarter of fiscal 2014 |
| Net loss for the first quarter of fiscal 2015 was $3,773,000 as compared to $1,379,000 for the first quarter of fiscal 2014. On a per share basis, net loss was $.45 as compared to $.16 for the same period a year ago. |

First Quarter Fiscal 2015 Results (Continued)
The Corporations housing segment experienced increased net sales in the first quarter of fiscal 2015 as compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2014, and management cannot forecast with certainty if this trend will continue. This uncertainty is based on potential adverse changes in economic growth, interest rate and employment levels, consumer confidence, and the availability of wholesale and retail financing.
The recreational vehicle segment experienced decreased net sales in the first quarter of fiscal 2015. Regarding the business environment for fiscal 2015, the RVIA forecasts calendar 2014 travel trailer and fifth wheel shipments of approximately 291,000 units; a 9 percent increase from calendar 2013s total of approximately 268,000 units. In addition, the RVIA forecasts 2015 travel trailer and fifth wheel shipments of approximately 301,000 units; a 3 percent increase from 2014s estimated total. Despite this favorable trend, business conditions for fiscal 2015 could be negatively impacted by adverse factors previously referenced by the RVIA.
Sale of Recreational Vehicle Segment
During September 2014, the Corporation decided to discontinue its recreational vehicle operations. As a result, on October 7, 2014, the Corporation completed the sale of certain assets associated with its recreational vehicle segment (the Transaction) to Evergreen Recreational Vehicles, LLC (ERV). The Transaction was completed pursuant to the terms of an Asset Purchase Agreement entered into between the Corporation and ERV on October 7, 2014, as well as the terms of a Real Property Purchase Agreement entered into on that same date between the Corporation and an affiliate of ERV, Skyline RE Holding LLC (which, collectively with ERV, is referred to herein as Evergreen). The assets of the recreational vehicle segment disposed of in the Transaction include, but not are limited to:
| A recreational vehicle manufacturing facility consisting of approximately 135,000 square feet situated on 18.2 acres located in Bristol, Indiana; |
| Intellectual properties such as trademarks, licenses, and product designs associated with the recreational vehicle segment; |
| Furniture, machinery, software, and equipment; |
| Raw material, work-in-process, and finished goods inventories; |
| Product designs, plans, and specifications; |
| Customer purchase orders and contracts, customer lists, and supplier lists; and |
| All of the Corporations rights to the exhibit space at the 2014 RVIA Louisville Show and related show materials (although the Corporation will retain approximately 4,500 square feet of show space for its own use). |
The amount and nature of the consideration received by the Corporation for the assets sold include:
16
Table of Contents
Item 2. | Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (Continued). |
Sale of Recreational Vehicle Segment (Continued)
| A cash payment of $175,000; |
| A separate cash payment of approximately $806,000, less prorated property taxes of $73,000 and selling expenses of $2,000, for the Bristol, Indiana manufacturing facility; |
| Within 30 days of the closing date of October 7, 2014 (the Closing Date), Evergreen will pay the Corporation a cash payment for the 2014 RVIA Louisville Show space (less the retained 4,500 square feet) at the per square foot lease rate paid by the Corporation for the space; |
| For six months following the Closing Date, Evergreen will pay the Corporation 50 percent of the Corporations cost for raw materials inventory purchased by the Corporation prior to the Closing Date within 10 days of Evergreens use of the raw material. After six months following the Closing Date, the Corporation will have the right to remove any remaining materials inventory from Evergreens possession; and |
| Evergreen will pay the Corporation 50 percent of the Corporations dealer invoice price for all finished goods inventory existing prior to the Closing Date which is sold after the Closing Date within 10 business days of any sale. |
In addition, under the Asset Purchase Agreement Evergreen will not assume or agree to pay, perform, or discharge any of the Corporations liabilities or obligations, which will remain the liabilities and obligations of the Corporation.
The Bristol facility, and assets other than raw material and finished goods inventories, were sold at approximately net book value. Evergreen has the right, but not the obligation, to purchase the raw material inventory at 50 percent of the Corporations cost of approximately $1,600,000. There can be no assurances as to how much, if any, of the raw material inventory Evergreen will purchase. Consequently, the Corporation anticipates taking a charge in the second quarter reflecting the approximate $800,000 reduction in value of the raw material inventory plus an amount that has not yet been ascertained for any raw material inventory not purchased by Evergreen. Management is in the process of determining the financial impact of other aspects of the Transaction on the Corporations results of operations for the second quarter. There may be additional charges that could be material related to the discontinued operations of the recreational vehicle segment disposed of in the Transaction.
Managements Plan
The Corporations consolidated financial statements were prepared on a going concern basis, which assumes continuity of operations and realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the ordinary course of business. Due to recurring losses, the Corporation experienced negative cash flows from operating activities. The level of historical negative cash flows from operations and not having available funding from outside financing sources raise substantial doubt about the Corporations ability to continue as a going concern. To continue as a going concern, certain strategies need to be pursued to raise capital, increase sales and decrease costs. These strategies include but are not limited to:

Item 2. | Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (Continued). |
Managements Plan (Continued)
| During September 2014, the Corporation decided to dispose of the recreational vehicle segment in order to raise cash, and allow management to better focus on driving profitable growth in the Corporations core housing business. Additional information regarding the sale is in Note 6 of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements. |
| Increasing sales at the Mansfield, Texas housing facility by gaining a greater presence on the properties of manufactured housing dealers and manufactured housing communities. Furthermore, efforts are being made to reduce costs and gain manufacturing efficiencies. |
| Assessing the strategic positioning of the Corporations individual manufacturing facilities and initiatives to optimize financial performance at each facility |
| Continuing to work with manufactured housing communities to identify opportunities for increasing sales |
| Increasing efforts to increase sales of modular homes and park models in both the United States and Canada by cultivating relationships with modular housing developers and campground owners that are outside the Corporations historical distribution channels |
| Maintaining the number of display models at housing facilities in order to provide dealers, communities and consumers with examples of newly designed product |
| Selling non-strategic assets, such as an idle housing facility in Ocala, Florida, undeveloped land in McMinnville, Oregon and two idle recreational vehicle facilities in Elkhart, Indiana to generate cash and eliminate carrying costs |
| Working with current and potential vendors to decrease costs |
| Analyzing staffing needs and making reductions when considered appropriate by management |
| Continuing to seek debt financing that is acceptable with respect to cost and structure |
As with any business enterprise, the Corporations ability to operate as a going concern is contingent upon the successful execution of its strategies. Management, however, is prepared to modify these strategies to meet prevailing business conditions.

Housing net sales increased approximately 31 percent. The increase was the outcome of manufactured housing net sales increasing approximately 36 percent, and modular housing net sales increasing approximately 6 percent. Included in current year manufactured housing net sales is approximately $2,111,000 of net sales attributable to the facility located in Mansfield, Texas. This facility commenced housing operations in the third quarter of fiscal 2014.
Housing unit shipments increased approximately 20 percent. The increase was the outcome of manufactured housing shipments increasing 23 percent, and modular shipments decreasing approximately 2 percent.
As previously noted, manufactured housing unit shipments increased approximately 23 percent. Industry unit shipments for these products increased approximately 8 percent from June to August 2014 as compared to the same period the year prior. The improvement is the result of increased sales to manufactured housing communities.
Compared to prior year, the average net sales price for manufactured housing and modular housing increased approximately 11 percent and 8 percent, respectively. The increase is the result of homes sold with larger square footage and greater amenities.
Recreational vehicles net sales revenue and unit shipments decreased approximately 23 percent and 47 percent, respectively.

Net Sales and Unit Shipments (Continued)
Included in prior year net sales is approximately $4,007,000 of net sales attributable to recreational vehicle production at the Mansfield, Texas facility. Recreational vehicle operations at that location ceased in the second quarter of fiscal 2014.
Unit shipments for travel trailers and fifth wheels decreased approximately 54 percent. Industry shipments for these products increased approximately 6 percent from June to August 2014 as compared to the same period the year prior. The Corporations unit shipments lagged the industry primarily due to various factors. Unit shipments to domestic dealers were adversely affected by some competitors maintaining larger quantities of finished goods inventory; resulting in the ability to meet dealer demand immediately. In addition, material shortages and employee acclimation to producing new models resulted in shipping delays to dealers. Current industry unit shipment data for park models is not available.
Compared to prior year, the average net sales price per unit for recreational vehicles sold domestically increased approximately 46 percent; primarily due to models sold with larger square footage and greater amenities.

Housing cost of sales, in dollars, increased as a result of increased net sales. Included in current year cost of sales is approximately $2,319,000 attributable to the Mansfield, Texas facility, which was not functioning as a housing facility a year ago. As previously referenced, housing operations commenced in the third quarter of fiscal 2014. As a percentage of net sales, cost of sales increased due to greater labor costs associated with increased production.
Recreational vehicle cost of sales decreased due to declining net sales. As a percentage of net sales, recreational vehicle cost of sales increased due to material and labor inefficiencies and inventory obsolescence associated with the introduction and production of new models.

The decrease occurred as a result of a change in the interest rate used in valuing the liability. As a percentage of net sales, selling and administrative expenses declined due to certain costs remaining fixed amid rising sales.

The operating loss for the housing segment decreased due to increased net sales. Included in the current years loss is an approximate $434,000 loss attributable to the Mansfield, Texas facility, which was not functioning as a housing facility a year ago.
Recreational vehicle operating loss increased due to decreased net sales and increased cost of sales as previously noted. As referenced in Note 6 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, the Corporation subsequent to August 31, 2014 sold certain assets associated with its recreational vehicle segment to Evergreen Recreational Vehicles, LLC.
General corporate expenses were higher due to a prior year $150,000 decrease in the expense related to the Corporations liability for retirement and death benefits offered to certain current and former employees as previously referenced.

Cash decreased primarily due to a $3,773,000 net loss. Current assets, exclusive of cash decreased mainly due to a $3,857,000 decrease in accounts receivable offset by a $1,622,000 increase in inventories. Accounts receivable decreased due to the timing of payments from dealers at August 31, 2014 as compared to May 31, 2014. Inventories increased primarily as a result of recreational vehicles built for an upcoming trade show, and homes and recreational vehicles that are awaiting shipment to dealers.
Current liabilities decreased as a result of changes that occurred in accounts payable, other accrued liabilities, and accrued marketing programs. Accounts payable decreased $1,283,000 due to the timing of payments to vendors at August 31, 2014 as compared to May 31, 2014. Other accrued liabilities decreased $911,000 primarily as a result of fulfillment of certain obligations associated with the Corporations contract with National Community Renaissance of California. Accrued marketing programs increased $1,146,000 due to accruals for an ongoing marketing program for manufactured housing dealers. Accruals are made monthly, and the majority of payments are made during the Corporations fourth fiscal quarter.
Capital expenditures totaled $26,000 for the first quarter of fiscal 2015 as compared to $4,000 for the first quarter of fiscal 2014.
As noted in the Managements Plan section, the Corporation is aggressively pursuing strategies in order to raise capital, increase sales and decrease costs; such as the second quarter sale of the recreational vehicle segment resulting in a cash payment of approximately $906,000. As with any business enterprise, the Corporations ability to operate as a going concern is contingent upon the successful execution of its strategies. Management, however, is prepared to modify these strategies to meet prevailing business conditions.
