EARNINGS PER SHARE


Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by weighted-average number of shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share includes the dilutive effect of stock options. No dilution is shown for the thirteen week periods ended April 4, 2009 and March 29, 2008 since the effect of the stock options on the net loss is antidilutive. In accordance with SFAS No. 128, the following is a reconciliation of the numerators and denominators of the basic and diluted EPS computations:

NOTE 5.

SUBSEQUENT EVENT

On May 1, 2009 and May 7, 2009, respectively, the Company entered into Sale/Leaseback transactions for its Abbotsford, WI and Bossier City, LA facilities.

The net proceeds from these sales were $1,438,000 and were used to pay down the line-of-credit with Wachovia Bank. The Company will recognize a loss on the building sales of approximately $100,000 in the second quarter of 2009.

The leases that the Company entered into for these facilities were each for 15 year terms and will have a total annual rent in the first year of $158,000. Each lease has an annual increase of two percent and the Company is responsible for all maintenance and the payment of property taxes.


Item 2.  Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

Cautionary Statement: This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q may contain statements relating to future events, including results of operations, that are considered "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements represent the Company's expectations or belief as to future events and, by their very nature, are subject to risks and uncertainties which may result in actual events differing materially from those anticipated. In particular, future operating results and future liquidity will be affected by the level of demand for recreational vehicles, manufactured housing and hotel/motel accommodations and may be affected by changes in general economic conditions, interest rate fluctuations, the availability of consumer credit, the availability of floor-plan credit for recreational vehicle and manufactured housing retail dealers, the availability of financing for manufacturers, fuel prices, competitive products and pricing pressures within the Company's markets, the Company's ability to contain its manufacturing costs and expenses, and other factors. Forward-looking statements by the Company speak only as of the date made, and the Company undertakes no obligation to update or revise such statements to reflect events or circumstances after such date or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.

Item 2.  Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations. (continued)


In May 2006, the Company entered into a line-of-credit agreement with Wachovia Bank. The agreement with Wachovia provides for a revolving line of credit of up to $5,000,000, and expires on June 30, 2009. The interest rate is LIBOR plus 150 basis points and the Company is required to maintain certain financial covenants. The 2007 loss caused the Company to violate the financial covenant in the loan agreement that the ratio of Senior Funded Debt to EBITDA may not exceed 2.75 to 1.00. The Company believes it is in compliance with all other conditions of the loan agreement. Wachovia provided a waiver for this violation through the end of the third quarter of 2008.  The waiver agreement changed the interest rate from LIBOR plus 150 basis points to LIBOR plus 275 basis points. The waiver has expired and the Company is in default of the loan covenant. At April 4, 2009, the Company had $3,499,000 in outstanding borrowings on the line-of-credit.  The outstanding balance on the line-of-credit as of January 3, 2009 was $2,564,000.

Management has negotiated with Wachovia Bank, which is now a Wells Fargo Company, for Wachovia to continue to fund its line-of-credit beyond the June 30, 2009 expiration date of its current agreement. Wachovia has initially agreed to provide the Company with a forbearance agreement which will run for six months to December 31, 2009. Wachovia has suggested that, if need be, it could provide an additional six month agreement through June 30, 2010. Although the forbearance agreement has not been completed at this time, Wachovia has indicated that the interest rate under the forbearance agreement will be eight percent, and a fee for extending the line will be required.

On May 1, 2009 and May 7, 2009, respectively, the Company entered into Sale/Leaseback transactions for its Abbotsford, WI and Bossier City, LA facilities.

The net proceeds from these sales were $1,438,000 and were used to pay down the line-of-credit with Wachovia Bank. The Company will recognize a loss on the building sales of approximately $100,000 in the second quarter of 2009.

The leases that the Company entered into for these facilities were each for 15 year terms and will have a total annual rent in the first year of $158,000. Each lease has an annual increase of two percent and the Company is responsible for all maintenance and the payment of property taxes.

In January 2004, the Company began assigning certain account receivables under a "Receivables Servicing and Credit Approved Receivables Purchasing Agreement" with CIT Group/Commercial Services Inc. Only receivables from sales to the hospitality industry may be assigned to CIT. Under the agreement CIT provides credit checking, credit approval, and collection responsibilities for the assigned receivables. If CIT approves an order from a hospitality customer and the resulting receivables are not paid or disputed by the customer within ninety days of sale, CIT will pay the receivable to the Company and assume ownership of the receivable. CIT begins collection efforts for the assigned receivables (both approved and not approved) when they are due (hospitality sales are made on Net 30 terms). Hospitality customers are instructed to make payments directly to CIT and CIT then wires collected funds to the Company. The Company pays CIT a percentage of all assigned receivables. Management believes this cost is mostly offset by reductions in Bad Debt expense and collection costs. The Company entered into this arrangement to take advantage of CIT’s extensive credit checking and collection capabilities. Management believes this arrangement has improved liquidity.

Item 2.  Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations. (continued)

Days Sales Outstanding (DSO) in accounts receivable were 37.6 days at April 4, 2009 compared to 29.8 days and 31.8 days at January 3, 2009 and March 29, 2008, respectively. The increase is attributable to longer collection times in addition to a greater percentage of the Company’s sales to the hospitality market, which traditionally has had longer collection times. Net accounts receivable was $2,138,103 at April 4, 2009, compared to $2,214,256 and $3,767,569 at January 3, 2009 and March 29, 2008, respectively.  The decrease in accounts receivable compared to March 29, 2008 is due to the reduced sales volumes in the current year. Inventories were $2,910,909 at April 4, 2009, as compared to $3,783,581 and $5,503,927 at January 3, 2009 and March 29, 2008, respectively.  The inventory declines are due to inventory writedowns related to RV customer bankruptcies, the decision to discontinue the manufacturing of sewn products for the RV industry, and lower sales volume.

Capital expenditures were $11,232 for the quarter ended April 4, 2009, compared to $113,838 for the same period of the prior year.

Net sales for the First Quarter 2009 were $5,105,638, compared to $10,503,898 for the same period in the previous year, a 51.4% decrease. Sales to the Company’s recreational vehicle customers decreased 82.3% in First Quarter 2009 when compared to the same period of the prior year. The recreational vehicle industry reported a 63.2% decrease in shipments during the First Quarter 2009 compared to the same period of the prior year. The Company’s sales to the RV industry decreased by more than the overall market because two of the Company’s major RV customers (Fleetwood Enterprises and Monaco Coach Corp.) filed bankruptcies during the first week of March 2009. Sales to these two customers were $127,000 in the First Quarter 2009 versus $2,009,000 in the First Quarter 2008. Sales to the Company’s manufactured housing customers decreased 45.6% in First Quarter 2009 when compared to the same period of the prior year. The manufactured housing industry showed a 45.5% decrease in shipments from the prior year. Sales to the Company’s hospitality customers decreased 10.3% in the First Quarter 2009 when compared to the same period of the prior year.

Item 2.  Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations. (continued)


Selling and administrative expenses were $2,488,990 in the First Quarter 2009 versus $2,254,076 in the First Quarter 2008. The percentage of selling and administrative expenses to net sales increased from 21.4% to 48.8%. The Company recorded a charge of $750,000 in the First Quarter 2009 in relation to its decision to discontinue the manufacture of sewn products for the RV industry. Without this charge, selling and administrative expenses would have been $1,738,990, or 34.1% of net sales, a decrease of $515,086 compared to First Quarter 2008. Management will continue to reduce these costs to better align with the current level of sales.

Interest expense increased to $36,365 in the First Quarter 2009 from $30,101 in the First Quarter 2008, due to increased borrowings on the Company’s line of credit during the First Quarter 2009.

Net loss was $1,290,929 in the First Quarter 2009 compared to net loss of $475,518 in the First Quarter 2008. The major reason for the increased loss was the lower sales volume and the charge of $750,000 in the First Quarter 2009 in relation to its decision to discontinue the manufacture of sewn products for the RV industry. Diluted earnings per share decreased from $0.16 per share loss during the First Quarter 2008 to $0.44 per share loss during the First Quarter 2009.


EBITDA

EBITDA represents income before income taxes, interest expense, depreciation and amortization and is an approximation of cash flow from operations before tax. The Company uses EBITDA as an internal measure of performance and believes it is a useful and commonly used measure of financial performance in addition to income before taxes and other profitability measures under U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”).

EBITDA is not a measure of performance under GAAP. EBITDA should not be construed as an alternative to operating income and income before taxes as an indicator of the Company’s operations in accordance with GAAP. Nor is EBITDA an alternative to cash flow from operating activities in accordance with GAAP. The Company’s definition of EBITDA can differ from that of other companies.

The following table reconciles Net Income, the most comparable measure under GAAP, to EBITDA for the first quarters of fiscal 2009 and 2008:
