(Unaudited)

1. Basis of Presentation
---------------------

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements for the three and
six months ended May 1, 2004 and May 3, 2003 have been prepared in accordance
with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America
for interim financial information and pursuant to the rules and regulations of
the Securities and Exchange Commission for Form 10-Q. Accordingly, they do not
include all the information and footnotes required by accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial
statements.

The unaudited financial information included in this report includes all
adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to reflect a fair
statement of the results for the interim periods. The operations for the three
and six months ended May 1, 2004 are not necessarily indicative of the results
of the full fiscal year.

The condensed consolidated financial statements included in this report should
be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included
in the Registrant's November 1, 2003 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

The receipt of stock in connection with the demutualization of an insurance
company for which the Company owns life insurance was originally recorded during
the second quarter of 2003 as a fair value adjustment for marketable securities
and included as a component of other comprehensive income. During the fourth
quarter of 2003, this amount was reclassified to other income and included in
net income; the results of this reclassification was to increase other income by
approximately $168,000, increase a deferred tax liability by approximately
$50,000, increase basic and diluted earnings per share by $0.03, and decrease
other comprehensive income by approximately $118,000. These amounts have been
properly reclassified in the accompanying financial statements for the
three-month and six-month periods ended May 3, 2003.

2. Inventories
-----------

Inventories are carried at the lower of cost or market. Cost of finished home
inventories is determined on the specific identification method. Other inventory
costs are determined on a first-in, first-out basis. Inventories at May 1, 2004
and November 1, 2003 are summarized as follows:

3. Accounting for Stock Based Compensation
---------------------------------------

At May 1, 2004, the Company had a stock incentive plan (the "Plan"), which
authorizes the issuance of options to purchase common stock. The Company has
adopted the disclosure-only provisions of FAS 123, Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation, as amended by FAS 148, Accounting for Stock Based Compensation-
Transition and Disclosure, an amendment of FASB Statement No. 123, but accounts
for the Plan under the recognition and measurement principles of Accounting
Principles Board Opinion No. 25 and related interpretations. No stock-based
employee compensation cost is reflected in net income, as all options granted
under those plans had an exercise price equal to the market value of the
underlying common stock on the date of grant. If the Company had elected to
recognize compensation expense for stock options based on the fair value at
grant date, consistent with the method prescribed by FAS 123, net income and
earnings per share would have been reduced to the pro forma amounts as follows:

5. Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
------------------------------------------

The Company applies judgment and estimates, which may have a material effect in
the eventual outcome of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, for accounts
receivable, inventory and goodwill. The following explains the basis and the
procedure for each asset account where judgment and material estimates are
applied.

Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue for the majority of retail sales upon the
occurrence of all the following:
o its receipt of a down payment,
o the home buyer enters into a installment sales contract with a third
party,
o construction of the home is complete,
o title having passed to the retail home buyer,
o full sales price of home having been collected and deposited into the
Company's account,
o the home having been delivered and set up at the retail home buyer's
site, and
o completion of any other significant obligations.

The Company recognizes wholesale home sales to independent dealers upon
receiving wholesale floor plan financing or establishing retail credit approval
for terms, shipping of the home, and transferring title and risk of loss to the
independent dealer. For wholesale shipments to independent retailers, the
Company has no obligation to set up the home or to complete any other
significant obligations.

Goodwill
Between 1995 and 1998 the Company acquired retail sales centers using the
purchase method of accounting. As a result, goodwill is reflected on the
consolidated balance sheets. A valuation was performed by the Company and it was
determined that the estimated fair value of the goodwill in the accounts
exceeded its book value. There is no assurance that the value of the acquired
sales centers will not decrease in the future due to changing business
conditions.

Vendor Rebates
The Company receives volume rebates from its vendors based upon reaching a
certain level of purchased materials during a specified period of time. Volume
rebates are estimated based upon annual purchases, and are adjusted quarterly if
the accrued volume rebate is applicable.

AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


Dealer Volume Rebates
The Company pays a volume rebate to independent dealers based upon the dollar
volume of homes purchased and paid for by the dealer in excess of a certain
specific dollar amount during a specific time period. Dealer volume rebates are
accrued when sales are recognized.

NOBILITY HOMES, INC.
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Results of Operations
- ---------------------
For the three and six month periods ended May 1, 2004 and May 3, 2003, results
of operations are as follows. Total net sales in second quarter 2004 increased
57% to $13,112,600 compared to $8,354,762 in the second quarter 2003. Total net
sales for the first six months of 2004 increased 38% to $23,310,841 compared to
$16,837,177 for the first six months of 2003. The increased sales in 2004 was
primarily due to the increase in sales to outside dealers coupled with an
increase in Prestige same store revenues. Industry shipments in Florida, our
primary market, in the latest three-month period were up approximately 6%. In
spite of tight retail credit standards, high unemployment, and uncertain
economic conditions in our country, management expects the demand for our homes
to continue. In the near term management anticipates continued pressure on both
sales and earnings resulting from these factors, plus record price increases in
lumber, oriented strand board (OSB), sheetrock, steel and oil-related products
and services.

Gross profit as a percentage of net sales was 25% in second quarter 2004
compared to 27% in second quarter 2003 and was 25% for the first six months of
2004 compared to 26% for the first six months 2003. The decline in gross profit,
as a percentage of sales, in 2004 was primarily due to higher material costs,
primarily in lumber and oriented strand board (OSB), sheetrock, steel and
oil-rated products and services.

Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percent of net sales were 13%
in second quarter of 2004 compared to 16% in the second quarter of 2003 and were
14% for the first six months of 2004 compared to 16% for the first six months of
2003. The decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses, as a percent
of net sales, resulted from the increase in sales which had an impact on
selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage because most of
these expenses are fixed, except for compensation expenses.

Other income for the second quarter of 2004 was $181,523 of which $77,970 was
from interest on cash equivalents and investments and $100,063 was from
Nobility's equity in the earnings from the Majestic 21 joint venture. In the
second quarter of 2003 other income was $307,810 of which $43,239 was from
interest on cash equivalents and investments and $88,997 was from Nobility's
equity in the earnings from the Majestic 21 joint venture. In the second quarter
of 2003 the Company recorded the receipt of stock in connection with
demutualization of insurance company in the amount $167,551. For the first six
months of 2004 other income was $370,393 of which $166,431 was from interest on
cash equivalents and investments and $171,065 was from Nobility's equity in the
earnings from the Majestic 21 joint venture. For the six months of 2003 other
income was $379,006 of which $83,536 was from interest on cash equivalents and
investments and $110,563 was from Nobility's equity in the earnings from the
Majestic 21 joint venture. The increase in interest income was primarily due to
a change in the investment portfolio to long-term marketable securities to
obtain a higher yield. Income reported for Majestic 21 results from the
Company's 50% share in the equity in the earnings of this joint venture. Income
for the joint venture fluctuated due to higher loan origination volume. The
Company believes that its historical loss experience has been favorably impacted
by its ability to resell foreclosed/repossessed homes through its network of
retail sales centers. Majestic 21 is a financing joint venture accounted for
under the equity method of accounting.

As a result of the factors discussed above, net income for the second quarter of
2004 was $1,153,357 or $0.28 per diluted share compared to $794,782 or $0.20 per
basic and diluted share for the second quarter 2003. For the first six months of
2004 net income was $1,937,238 or $0.47 per diluted share as compared to
$1,395,365 or $0.35 per basic and diluted share for the first six months of
2003.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
- -------------------------------
Cash and cash equivalents were $9,907,112 at May 1, 2004 compared to $10,641,748
at November 1, 2003. Short and long term investments were $7,528,714 at May 1,
2004 compared to $5,592,375 at November 1, 2003. Working capital was $15,140,706
at May 1, 2004 as compared to $14,736,228 at November 1, 2003. Nobility owns the
entire inventory for its Prestige retail sales centers and does not incur any
third party floor plan financing expenses. Inventories increased to $7,707,792
at May 1, 2004, from $6,557,659 at November 1, 2003 primarily due to an increase
in the number of homes in inventory at the Prestige retail sales centers.
Accounts receivable trade decreased $587,798 to $1,508,330 at May 1, 2004 from
$2,096,128 at November 1, 2003.

NOBILITY HOMES, INC.
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Nobility maintains a revolving credit agreement with a major bank providing for
borrowing up to $4,000,000. At May 1, 2004 and November 1, 2003, there were no
amounts outstanding under this agreement.

Consistent with normal practices, Nobility's operations are not expected to
require significant capital expenditures during fiscal 2004. Working capital
requirements for any increase in the new home inventory for existing and any new
retail sales centers will be met with internal sources.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
- ------------------------------------------

The Company applies judgment and estimates, which may have a material effect in
the eventual outcome of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, for accounts
receivable, inventory and goodwill. The following explains the basis and the
procedure for each asset account where judgment and estimates are applied.

Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue for the majority of retail sales upon the
occurrence of all the following:
o its receipt of a down payment,
o the home buyer enters into a installment sales contract with a third
party,
o construction of the home is complete,
o title having passed to the retail home buyer,
o full sales price of home having been collected and deposited into the
Company's account,
o the home having been delivered and set up at the retail
home buyer's site, and
o completion of any other significant obligations.

The Company recognizes wholesale home sales to independent dealers upon
receiving wholesale floor plan financing or establishing retail credit approval
for terms, shipping of the home, and transferring title and risk of loss to the
independent dealer. For wholesale shipments to independent retailers, the
Company has no obligation to set up the home or to complete any other
significant obligations.

Goodwill
Between 1995 and 1998 the Company acquired retail sales centers using the
purchase method of accounting. As a result, goodwill is reflected on the
consolidated balance sheets. A valuation was performed by the Company and it was
determined that the estimated fair value of the goodwill in the accounts
exceeded its book value. There is no assurance that the value of the acquired
sales centers will not decrease in the future due to changing business
conditions.

Vendor Rebates
The Company receives volume rebates from its vendors based upon reaching a
certain level of purchased materials during a specified period of time. Volume
rebates are estimated based upon annual purchases, and are adjusted quarterly if
the accrued volume rebate is applicable.

Dealer Volume Rebates
The Company pays a volume rebate to independent dealers based upon the dollar
volume of homes purchased and paid for by the dealer in excess of a certain
specific dollar amount during a specific time period. Dealer volume rebates are
accrued when sales are recognized.

Forward-Looking Statements
- --------------------------

Certain statements in this report are forward-looking statements within the
meaning of the federal securities laws, including our statement that working
capital requirements will be met with internal sources. Although Nobility
believes that the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are
based on reasonable assumptions, there are risks and uncertainties that may
cause actual results to differ materially from expectations. These risks and

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

We do not engage in investing in or trading market risk sensitive
instruments. We also do not purchase, for investing, hedging, or for
purposes "other than trading", instruments that are likely to expose us to
market risk, whether interest rate, foreign currency exchange, commodity
price or equity price risk. We have not entered into any forward or
futures contracts, purchased any options or entered into any interest rate
swaps.

We do not currently have any indebtedness as of May 1, 2004. If we were to
borrow from our revolving line of credit facility, we would be exposed to
changes in interest rates. Under our current policies, we do not use
interest rate derivative instruments to manage exposure to interest rate
changes.

such evaluation, such officers have concluded that, as of the
Evaluation Date, the Company's disclosure controls and procedures

information relating to the Company (including its consolidated
subsidiaries) required to be included in the Company's reports filed
