CLAYTON HOMES, INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)

1. The condensed consolidated financial statements of Clayton Homes, Inc.
and its wholly and majority owned subsidiaries (the Company) have been prepared
by the Company, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the
Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote
disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance
with accounting principals generally accepted in the United States of America
have been omitted. The condensed consolidated financial statements should be
read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in
the Company's Annual Report to Shareholders for the year ended June 30, 2002.

The information furnished reflects all adjustments which are necessary for a
fair statement of the Company's financial position as of September 30, 2002, and
the results of its operations and its cash flows for the three month periods
ended September 30, 2002 and 2001. All such adjustments are of a normal
recurring nature. The results of operations for the three months ended September
30, 2002, are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the
respective full year.

2. The overall change in inventories as of September 30, 2002, from June 30,
2002, was as follows:

3. The Company follows the accounting requirements of Emerging Issues Task
Force (EITF) 99-20, Recognition of Interest Income and Impairment on Purchased
and Retained Beneficial Interests in Securitized Financial Assets. Under these
guidelines, the Company evaluated the expected future cash flows from its
available-for-sale interest-only securities on a disaggregate security by
security basis. There was a $2.7 million ($1.7 million after tax) increase in
the excess of the market value over the accreted book value of interest-only
securities. This favorable adjustment has been recorded as an element of
accumulated other comprehensive income. In addition, an other than temporary
charge of $.6 million was recorded in September 2002 as a reduction of financial
services revenues in relation to one of the Company's residual interests in
installment contract receivables.

4. The Company follows the provisions of SFAS 140, Accounting for Transfers and
Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities. The key
economic assumptions used in the valuation of the residual interests for
securitizations completed during the three month period ending September 30,
2002 and 2001, were:

September 30, 2002, and 2001, respectively, were not included in the computation
of diluted earnings per share because their inclusion would have been
antidilutive.




6. In June 2001, the FASB issued Statement No. 143 (SFAS 143), Accounting
for Asset Retirement Obligations. SFAS 143 requires that obligations associated
with the retirement of a tangible long-lived asset be recorded as a liability
when those obligations are incurred, with the amount of the liability initially
measured at fair value. SFAS 143 was effective for financial statements for
fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2002. The Company has adopted SFAS 143 and
the adoption did not have a material impact on the Company's reported results of
operations, financial position or cash flows.

In August 2001, the FASB issued Statement No. 144 (SFAS 144), Accounting for the
Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets. SFAS 144 supercedes SFAS 121 and
applies to all long-lived assets (including discontinued operations) and
consequently amends portions of Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 30 (APB
30), Reporting Results of Operations Reporting the Effects of Disposal of a
Segment of a Business. SFAS 144 requires that long-lived assets to be sold be
measured at the lower of book value or fair value less cost to sell. SFAS 144
was effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after
December 15, 2001, and generally, its provisions are to be applied
prospectively. The Company has adopted SFAS 143 and the adoption did not have a
material impact on the Company's reported results of operations, financial
position or cash flows.

In April 2002, the FASB issued Statement No. 145, Rescission of FASB Statements
No. 4, 44, and 64, Amendment of FASB Statement No. 13, and Technical
Corrections. This Statement rescinds FASB Statement No. 4, Reporting Gains and
Losses from Extinguishment of Debt, and an amendment of that Statement, FASB
Statement No. 64, Extinguishments of Debt Made to Satisfy Sinking-Fund
Requirements. This Statement amends FASB Statement No. 13, Accounting for
Leases, to eliminate an inconsistency between the required accounting for
sale-leaseback

transactions and the required accounting for certain lease modifications that
have economic effects that are similar to sale-leaseback transactions. This
Statement also amends other existing authoritative pronouncements to make
various technical corrections, clarify meanings, or describe their applicability
under changed conditions. The Company did not have any transactions applicable
to the provisions of this statement in the quarter; therefore, the adoption of
this statement did not have a material impact on the Company's reported results
of operations, financial position or cash flows.

In June 2002, the FASB issued Statement No. 146 (SFAS 146), Accounting for Costs
Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities. This Statement addresses financial
accounting and reporting for costs associated with exit or disposal activities
and nullifies Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) Issue No. 94-3, Liability
Recognition for Certain Employee Termination Benefits and Other Costs to Exit an
Activity. This Statement requires that a liability for a cost associated with an
exit or disposal activity be recognized and measured initially at fair value
only when the liability is incurred. SFAS 146 is effective for exit or disposal
activities that are initiated after December 31, 2002, and the Company does not
anticipate that the provisions of this statement will have a material impact on
the Company's reported results of operations, financial positions, or cash
flows.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES:

The Company believes the following represents its critical accounting policies:

Revenue Recognition

- - Retail sales are recognized when:
1) Cash payment is received, or down payment is received for credit
sales and the home buyer enters into an installment sales
contract, and
2) The home buyer has inspected and accepted the completed home at
the home buyer's site, and
3) Title has passed to the retail home buyer.
- - Sales to independent retailers of homes produced by the Company are
recognized as revenue upon shipment.
- - Revenue from rental of homesites and homes is accrued and recognized based
on the terms of the resident's lease agreement with the Company.
- - Premiums from insurance policies represent short-duration contracts with
terms of one to 10 years and are deferred and recognized as revenue over
the terms of the policies.
- - Vanderbilt Mortgage and Finance, Inc. (VMF), the Company's financing
subsidiary, originates and sells installment contract and mortgage loan
receivables (receivables), retaining the servicing thereon. It also
provides servicing for investors in receivables on a contract basis.
Interest income on receivables held, either for sale or as an investment,
is recognized in accordance with the terms of the underlying installment
contracts. For receivables sold with servicing retained and receivables
serviced under servicing agreements, service fee income is recognized as
the service is performed. Interest income on interest-only residual
interests is recognized in accordance with the consensus of the Emerging
Issues Task Force in its Issue No. 99-20 (EITF 99-20), Recognition of
Interest Income and Impairment on Purchased and Retained Beneficial
Interests in Securitized Assets. Accordingly, interest income is recognized
through an effective yield method, with the yield computed prospectively
over the life of the residual interests after adjustments in the estimated
cash flows are made to reflect prepayments, defaults and other factors.

Valuation of Residual Interests

The Company engages in securitization activities in connection with certain of
its businesses. Gains and losses from securitizations are recognized in the
consolidated statements of income when the Company relinquishes control of the
transferred financial assets in accordance with SFAS No. 140, Accounting for
Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities.
The gain or loss on the sale of financial assets depends in part on the previous
carrying amount of the assets involved in the

9


transfer, allocated between the assets sold and the retained interests based
upon their respective fair values at the date of the sale.

Interest-only securities are periodically valued using a discounted cash flow
model. The future cash flows for the estimated life of each securitized pool
are projected as the excess interest received from borrowers over the interest
paid to the securityholders, less contractual servicing fees, after giving
effect to estimated prepayments and credit losses. Estimates for prepayments,
defaults, and losses are determined based on a model developed by the Company
that considers both Company-specific experience and current economic conditions.

The residual interests in the installment receivables sold are classified as
available-for-sale securities. Accordingly, changes in fair market value are
recorded as other comprehensive income (loss) unless an other than temporary
adverse change is determined. Such changes are reflected in net income. In
September 2002, an other than temporary charge of $.6 million was recorded as a
reduction of financial services revenues in relation to one of the Company's
residual interests. The valuation of residual interests involves various
assumptions and estimates. Any actual significant change in those original
assumptions and estimates could have a material impact on the Company's reported
financial position and cash flows.

Servicing assets are periodically evaluated on a transaction basis for
impairment based on the fair value of those assets. The estimate of fair value
assumes: 1) discount rates which, at the time the asset was created, approximate
current market rates; and 2) expected prepayment rates based on loan prepayment
experience for similar transactions. The servicing asset or liability is
amortized in proportion to and over the period of estimated net servicing income
or net servicing loss.

Reserves for Credit Losses and Contingent Liabilities

Reserves for credit losses and contingent liabilities are established for
receivables held for sale or investment and certain inventory. Actual credit
losses are charged to the reserves when incurred. The reserves established for
such losses are determined based on the Company's historical loss experience
after adjusting for current economic conditions. Management, in assessing the
loss experience and economic conditions, adjusts reserves through periodic
provisions. The Company also maintains a reserve for contingent liabilities
related to guarantees of installment contract receivables sold with recourse.

THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2002:

Total revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2002, increased 4% to
$307 million from the same period in 2001, which consisted of a 3% decrease in
manufactured housing sales to $221 million, a 32% increase in financial services
income to $68 million and a 3% increase in rental and other income to $18
million. Total units sold declined 9% to 6,092 from 6,684 in the prior year
period as total floors shipped decreased 9% to 9,205 from 10,065 in the prior
year period.

Gross profit margins on net sales increased slightly to 34.6% from 34.5%, while
selling, general and administrative expenses, as a percent of total revenues,
increased to 33.2% from 32.4% in the prior year period. The increase in the
provision for credit losses was primarily due to the additional number of
contracts in foreclosure from the same period last year. Operating income
increased to 16.7% of total revenues in the quarter from 15.9% in 2001.

Interest expense (net of interest income) decreased to $4.1 million for the
quarter ending September 30, 2002, as compared to $5.0 million net expense in
the same period last year. The net expense was primarily


10


attributable to overall declining interest rates during the three month period
which had a negative impact on the value of the Company's interest rate swaps.
During the quarter ended September 30, 2002, there was an unfavorable
mark-to-market adjustment of $4.0 million relating to the swaps. In the
comparable period last year, there was a $3.9 million mark-to-market unfavorable
swap adjustment.


RETAIL. Within the Retail segment revenues, the group experienced a slight
decrease in net sales to $158 million, as the average home price increased 9%,
the average number of homes sold per sales center decreased 6%, and the total
number of homes sold declined 9% to 3,740. Same store dollar sales declined 1%
for the quarter. The average number of Company-owned sales centers decreased 3%
due to the Company's continuous evaluation of retail centers' strategic fit into
the Company's operating model and distribution channels.

Percentage single-section/multi-section mix 39/61 39/61



FINANCIAL SERVICES. Revenues for the Financial Services segment increased $16
million, primarily due to a larger servicing portfolio and improved spreads over
last year. Insurance related revenues rose $1 million. Originations of $227
million and acquisitions of $68 million were completed during the quarter,
bringing the total serviced portfolio to $5.0 billion. Loans sold through
asset-backed securities totaled $500 million (including pre-funding of $143
million), compared to $400 million (including pre-funding of $73 million) during
the same period last year, and delinquency on the originated portfolio declined
59 basis points to 3.12% for the quarter versus the comparable period last year.
Overall delinquency, including the serviced portfolio and the recent portfolio
purchases, increased from 2.84% in June 2002 to 3.73% in September, but


11


declined 41 basis points from September last year. Total Financial Services
operating income increased 39% to $36 million.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES:

Cash and cash equivalents at September 30, 2002, were $168 million as compared
to $84 million at June 30, 2002. The Company anticipates meeting cash
requirements with cash flow from operations, revolving credit lines, a
commercial paper sales facility, a participation facility, senior notes, and
sales of installment contract and mortgage loan receivables and GNMA
certificates.

Cash used in operating activities was $17 million for the three months ending
September 30, 2002, as compared to $56 million being provided from operations
for the same period last year. The Company

provided $132 million from investing activities, primarily from the sales of
acquired contract installment receivables, as compared to $55 million provided
by investing activities last year. In addition, $30 million in cash was used
for financing activities, mostly for repurchase of common stock, as compared to
$65 million being used in the same period last year.

The Company's debt to capital ratio was 7% at September 30, 2002. Short-term
debt available consists of $165 million committed and $71 million uncommitted
lines of credit. These lines of credit do not require collateral and are priced
in relation to LIBOR. The committed credit lines are guaranteed by all
significant subsidiaries of the Company and are governed by various financial
covenants that require maintenance of certain financial ratios. The Company had
debt outstanding of $92 million and $93 million at September 30, 2002 and June
30, 2002, respectively.

The Company has $75 million of 6.25% Senior Notes due December 30, 2003, which
are primarily to facilitate the purchase, origination and warehousing of loan
portfolios. The Senior Notes are guaranteed by all significant subsidiaries of
the Company and are governed by various financial covenants that require
maintenance of certain financial ratios. At September 30, 2002, the Company was
in compliance with those financial covenants, as required.

A $300 million one-year sales facility is available of which $150 million is
committed. This facility was not utilized at September 30, 2002. In addition,
a committed one-year $150 million participation facility is also available to
facilitate the future sale of manufactured housing contracts. This
participation facility was not utilized at September 30, 2002. In accordance
with the agreements of the sales facility, utilization of any unfunded
commitment is permitted as long as criteria, that include credit rating,
financial covenants, and performance triggers, are met. The Company owns its
inventory; therefore, no floorplanning arrangements are necessary.

The following table summarizes the Company's significant contractual obligations
and other contingencies as of September 30, 2002:

Repurchase agreements $ 58,993 $ 50,144 $ 8,849 $ - $ - $ - $ -

(1) Debt obligations consist primarily of $75 million Senior Notes due December 2003, and $15 million tax-exempt bonds
due through 2030. Capital leases represent amounts due on computer-related equipment. Operating leases represent
minimum rental commitments primarily for retail centers in effect on September 30, 2002.
(2) Letters of credit primarily relate to insurance reserves. Guarantees are for subordinate corporate guarantee bonds
relating to asset-backed securitizations and GNMA certificates. The Company believes the probability of having to make
guarantee payments under the terms of the guarantees is remote. The repurchase agreements represent the maximum
potential repurchase obligations in the event of a default by an independent retailer to the institution providing its
floorplan lending. These agreements are customary in the manufactured housing industry, and the Company's losses in the
past have not been significant.
