Skyline Corporation and Subsidiary Companies

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
For the six-month period ended November 30, 2002

NOTE 1 Nature of Operations and Accounting Policies

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 November 30, 2002, the
consolidated results of operations for three-month and six-month periods ended
November 30, 2002 and 2001, and the consolidated cash flows for the six-month
periods ended November 30, 2002 and 2001.

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 interim
consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the
consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the
Corporation's latest annual report on Form 10-K.

Inventories are stated at cost, determined under the first-in, first-out
method, which is not in excess of market. Physical inventory counts are taken
at the end of each reporting quarter. At November 30, 2002, total inventories
consisted of raw materials, $4,495,000 work in process, $5,091,000, and
finished goods, $529,000. At May 31, 2002, total inventories consisted of raw
materials, $4,280,000, work in process, $5,183,000 and finished goods,
$169,000.

The Corporation and its subsidiaries were contingently liable at November 30,
2002 under repurchase agreements with certain financial institutions. Losses,
if any, are the difference between the repurchase cost and the resale value of
the units. For the three-month and six-month periods ended November 30, 2002,
the Corporation repurchased units in the amount of $313,000, and incurred a net
loss of $50,000. For the same periods in fiscal 2002, the Corporation's
repurchases amounted to $53,000 and $886,000, and the net losses were $2,000
and $173,000.

On November 25, 2002, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued
Interpretation No. 45 "Guarantor's Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for
Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others". This
Interpretation elaborates on the disclosures to be made by a guarantor in its
interim and annual financial statements about its obligations under certain
guarantees it has issued. The Corporation is currently evaluating the impact
of Interpretation No. 45 on its consolidated financial statements, but believes
the impact will be immaterial. Adoption of Interpretation No. 45 will occur in
the third quarter of fiscal 2003.

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 Corporation's
results of operations or financial position.

Report of Independent Accountants

To The Board of Directors and Shareholders of Skyline Corporation:

We have reviewed the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Skyline
Corporation and its subsidiaries as of November 30, 2002, and the related
consolidated statements of earnings and retained earnings for each of the
three-month and six-month periods ended November 30, 2002 and 2001 and the
consolidated statements of cash flows for the six-month period ended November
30, 2002 and 2001. These financial statements are the responsibility of the
Company's management.

We conducted our review in accordance with standards established by the
American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. A review of interim
financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures to
financial data and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and
accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted
in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, the objective of
which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken
as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.

Based on our review, we are not aware of any material modifications that should
be made to the accompanying consolidated interim financial information for it
to be in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United
States of America.

We previously audited in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted
in the United States of America, the consolidated balance sheet as of May 31,
2002, and the related consolidated statements of earnings and retained
earnings, and of cash flows for the year then ended (not presented herein), and
in our report dated June 17, 2002 we expressed an unqualified opinion on those
consolidated financial statements. In our opinion, the information set forth
in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet information as of
November 30, 2002, is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the
consolidated balance sheet from which it has been derived.

Results of Operations

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations

Results of Operations for the Current Quarter Compared to the Same Quarter
Last Year

Sales in the quarter ended November 30, 2002 were $112,467,000, a decrease of
$5,587,000 from $118,054,000 in the comparable quarter of the prior year.
Fiscal 2003 sales through November 30 were $228,959,000, a decrease of
$11,320,000 from prior year's sales of $240,279,000. Manufactured housing
sales for the second quarter totaled $78,599,000 compared to $96,160,000 at
November 30, 2001. Manufactured housing unit sales decreased from 2,792 to
2,133. This segment's fiscal year sales were $159,706,000 versus $187,107,000,
while unit sales declined from 5,459 to 4,394. Second quarter recreational
vehicle sales increased from $21,894,000 in fiscal 2002 to $33,868,000 in
fiscal 2003. Recreational vehicle unit sales for the quarter increased from
1,555 to 2,319. Fiscal year sales through November 30 were $69,253,000 versus
$53,172,000. Unit sales increased from 3,881 to 4,849. Manufacturing housing
sales continue to be affected by more competitive pricing caused by difficult
market conditions, restrictive retail financing, and the softness in the U. S.
economy. The increase in recreational vehicle sales is a reflection of an
industry-wide improvement in market conditions for towable recreational
vehicles. This trend began in early calendar year 2002.

Cost of sales in the second quarter of fiscal 2003 was 86.7 percent of sales
compared to 85.1 percent in fiscal 2002. Cost of sales for the first six
months of fiscal 2003 was 87.0 percent versus 85.5 percent in the prior year.
The increase is primarily attributable to a product mix shift toward
recreational vehicles. This business segment represented 30 percent of total
sales in fiscal 2003 versus 22 percent in fiscal 2002. Manufactured housing
gross margins exceed those for recreational vehicles.

Quarterly selling and administrative expenses as a percentage of sales
increased slightly from 10.7 percent in fiscal 2002 to 10.9 percent in fiscal
2003, although the level of expenditures decreased $380,000 from the prior
year. Selling and administrative expenses as a percentage of sales for fiscal
2003 totaled 10.8 percent versus fiscal 2002's 10.6 percent, while expenditures
decreased $690,000.

Second quarter operating earnings as a percentage of sales for manufactured
housing were 4.6 percent in fiscal 2003 versus 7.2 percent in the prior year.
Year to date operating earnings were 4.3 percent in fiscal 2003 versus prior
year's 6.4 percent. Recreational vehicle quarterly operating earnings as a
percentage of sales were 0.3 percent for fiscal year 2003, and an operating
loss of 3.1 percent in fiscal year 2002. Recreational vehicle fiscal year
operating earnings through November 30, 2002 increased from a prior year loss
of .2 percent to earnings of .3 percent. Second quarter earnings for
manufactured housing declined due to the continuation of difficult market
conditions noted above. Earnings for recreational vehicles rose primarily as
a result of increased demand for towable travel trailers.


Skyline Corporation and Subsidiary Companies

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations

Results of Operations for the Current Quarter Compared to the Same Quarter
Last Year (continued)


Interest income amounted to $548,000 for the second quarter compared to prior
year's $1,189,000. Interest income is directly related to the amount available
for investment and the prevailing yields of U.S. Government securities.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

At November 30, 2002, cash and short-term investments in U. S. Treasury Bills
totaled $152,474,000, an increase of $5,448,000 from $147,026,000 at May 31,
2002. Current assets exclusive of cash and investments in U.S. Treasury Bills
totaled $42,394,000 at November 30, 2002, a decrease of $3,403,000 from the May
31, 2002 balance of $45,797,000. The decrease was due to a seasonal decline in
accounts receivable ($4,007,000).

Current liabilities increased $268,000 from $36,463,000 at May 31, 2002 to
$36,731,000 at November 30, 2002. Various factors contributed to the increase.
Accrued marketing programs increased $4,958,000 due to the timing of payments
for an ongoing marketing program. Accrued profit sharing decreased $1,104,000
due to the timing of a yearly contribution to the Corporation's profit sharing
program. Trade accounts payable decreased $1,459,000 due to the seasonality of
the Corporation's business. Other accrued liabilities decreased $1,184,000 as
a result of the timing of payroll and property tax payments at November 30
versus May 31.

Working capital at November 30, 2002 amounted to $158,137,000 compared to
$156,360,000 at May 31, 2002. Capital expenditures totaled $866,000 during
the first six months of fiscal 2003 compared to $2,104,000 in the previous
year. Capital expenditures during this period were made primarily to replace
or refurbish machinery and equipment and improve manufacturing efficiencies.

The cash provided by operating activities, along with current cash and other
short-term investments, is expected to be adequate to fund any capital
expenditures and treasury stock purchases during the year. Historically, the
Corporation's financing needs have been met through funds generated internally.

On September 16, 2002, Deutsche Financial Services (Deutsche), a national
provider of floor plan funding for manufactured housing dealer inventories,
announced that effective November 1, 2002, it would stop approving requests to
fund purchases of additional inventory for industry dealers. For the six-month
period ended November 30, 2002, less than 2.8% percent of the Corporation's
manufactured housing sales were from manufactured housing dealers who
exclusively rely on Deutsche for floor plan financing. The remaining
manufactured housing sales were purchased with cash, or obtained through
financing from other wholesale lenders or local banks. The Corporation
believes Deutsche's decision will not have a material impact on the
consolidated financial statements.

Results of Operations for the Current Quarter Compared to the Same Quarter
Last Year (continued)

Other Matters

The provision for federal income taxes in each year approximates the statutory
rate and for state income taxes reflects current state rates effective for the
period based upon activities within the taxable entities.

The consolidated financial statements included in this report reflect
transactions in the dollar values in which they were incurred and, therefore,
do not attempt to measure the impact of inflation. However, the Corporation
believes that inflation has not had a material effect on its operations during
the past three years. On a long-term basis, the Corporation has demonstrated
an ability to adjust the selling prices of its products in reaction to changing
costs due to inflation.

Forward Looking Information

Certain statements in this report are considered forward looking as indicated
by the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements
involve uncertainties that may cause actual results to materially differ from
expectations as of the report date. These uncertainties include but are not
limited to:

* Cyclical nature of the manufactured housing and recreational vehicle
industries
* Availability of wholesale and retail financing
* Interest rate levels
* Impact of inflation
* Competitive pressures on pricing and promotional costs
* Consumer confidence
* Market demographics
* Market disruption resulting from the terrorist attacks on September 11, 2001,
and any subsequent armed conflict by the United States.

3. Based on my knowledge, the financial statements, and other financial
information included in this quarterly report, fairly present in all
material respects the financial condition, results of operations and
cash flows of the registrant as of, and for, the periods presented in
this quarterly report;

4. The registrant's other certifying officer and I are responsible for
establishing and maintaining disclosure controls and procedures (as
defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-14 and 15d-14) for the registrant
and we have:

a) designed such disclosure controls and procedures to ensure that
material information relating to the registrant, including its
consolidated subsidiaries, is made known to us by others within
those entities, particularly during the period in which this
quarterly report is being prepared;

b) evaluated the effectiveness of the registrant's disclosure
controls and procedures as of a date within 90 days prior to
the filing date of this quarterly report (the "Evaluation
Date"); and

c) presented in this quarterly report our conclusions about the
effectiveness of the disclosure controls and procedures based
on our evaluation as of the Evaluation Date;


5. The registrant's other certifying officer and I have disclosed, based
on our most recent evaluation, to the registrant's auditors and the
audit committee of registrant's board of directors (or persons
performing the equivalent function):

a) all significant deficiencies in the design or operation of
internal controls which could adversely affect the registrant's
ability to record, process, summarize and report financial data
and have identified for the registrant's auditors any material
weaknesses in internal controls; and

b) any fraud, whether or not material, that involves management or
other employees who have a significant role in the registrant's
internal controls; and

6. The registrant's other certifying officer and I have indicated in this
quarterly report whether or not there were significant changes in
internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect
internal controls subsequent to the date of our most recent evaluation,
including any corrective actions with regard to significant
deficiencies and material weaknesses.
