ITEM 7.01.  REGULATION FD DISCLOSURE


In response to an inquiry by a member of the media relating to the current state of the housing and recreational vehicle markets, Coachmen Industries’ President and CEO Richard M. Lavers reaffirmed the Company’s position, as previously stated in its public filings, with regard to its balance sheet liquidity as well as management’s belief that the Company’s $55 million secured credit agreement with Bank of America and  its ability to borrow based on the cash surrender value of Company-owned life insurance policies provided adequate sources of liquidity for the Company’s current and foreseeable operations.  He also indicated that the Company was not actively engaged in pursuing additional debt or equity financing with the exception of potential mortgage financing for a possible non-material real estate purchase discussed over the last several weeks.  Mr. Lavers further indicated that the Company has been approached by more than one party regarding potential capital investment in the Company, but that management had declined to pursue such opportunities.  Finally, Mr. Lavers stated that the Company’s first quarter earnings conference call was scheduled within the next two weeks, and that more up to date information regarding the Company’s operating results would be provided the media and the public at that time.
