PART I

Item 1.     BUSINESS.

Summary

Drew Industries Incorporated (“Drew” or the “Company” or the “Registrant”), through its wholly-owned subsidiary Lippert Components, Inc. and its subsidiaries (collectively, “Lippert Components”), supplies a full line of components for the leading manufacturers of recreational vehicles (“RVs”) and manufactured homes. To a lesser extent, Drew, through Lippert Components, also manufactures components for adjacent industries including buses; trailers used to haul boats, livestock, equipment and other cargo; truck caps; modular housing; and factory-built mobile office units. Effective December 2013, the Company completed the tax-free reorganization of Kinro, Inc. and its subsidiaries with and into Lippert Components.

The Company has two reportable operating segments: the RV products segment (the “RV Segment”), and the manufactured housing products segment (the “MH Segment”). The RV Segment accounted for 88 percent of consolidated net sales for 2013, and the MH Segment accounted for 12 percent of consolidated net sales for 2013. Approximately 81 percent of the Company’s RV Segment net sales in 2013 were of products to manufacturers of travel trailer and fifth-wheel RVs.

Over the last fifteen years, the Company acquired a number of manufacturers of components for RVs, manufactured homes, specialty trailers and adjacent industries, expanded its geographic market and product lines, consolidated manufacturing facilities, and integrated manufacturing, distribution and administrative functions. At December 31, 2013, the Company operated 31 manufacturing facilities in 11 states, and achieved consolidated net sales of $1.02 billion for the year ended December 31, 2013.

The Company was incorporated under the laws of Delaware on March 20, 1984, and is the successor to Drew National Corporation, which was incorporated under the laws of Delaware in 1962. The Company's principal executive and administrative offices are located at 3501 County Road 6 East, Elkhart, Indiana 46514; telephone number (574) 535-1125; website www.drewindustries.com; e-mail drew@drewindustries.com. The Company makes available free of charge on its website its Annual Report on Form 10-K, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, Current Reports on Form 8-K (and amendments to those reports) filed with the SEC as soon as reasonably practicable after such materials are electronically filed.

Recent Developments

Executive Succession and Relocation

On May 10, 2013, Fredric M. Zinn retired as President and Chief Executive Officer of Drew. Jason D. Lippert, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Lippert Components, succeeded Mr. Zinn as Chief Executive Officer of Drew. Scott T. Mereness, President of Lippert Components, succeeded Mr. Zinn as President of Drew. This leadership transition was the result of a comprehensive succession process initiated by the Board of Directors in 2011.

In June 2013, the Company also relocated its corporate headquarters from White Plains, New York to Elkhart County, Indiana, the location of the corporate headquarters of Lippert Components, and where more than 80 percent of all RVs produced in the U.S. are manufactured.

Sales and Profits

In Item 7. “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” we describe in detail the increase in our sales and profits during 2013.

3

Net sales for 2013 reached a record $1.02 billion, a 13 percent increase over net sales of $901 million in 2012. Net sales of the Company’s RV Segment increased 14 percent, compared to a 10 percent increase in industry-wide wholesale shipments of travel trailer and fifth-wheel RVs, the Company’s primary RV market. Approximately 81 percent of the Company’s RV Segment net sales in 2013 were of products to manufacturers of travel trailer and fifth-wheel RVs. The RV Segment represented 88 percent of consolidated net sales in 2013. Sales growth in new markets and new products continued to be key factors in enabling Drew’s sales to exceed RV industry growth rates. Acquisitions did not have a significant impact on the increase in net sales for 2013. Significant additions to the Company’s RV product lines in recent years include advanced leveling devices, in-wall slide-out systems, and awnings. Together, net sales of these products reached $90 million in 2013 as compared to $65 million in 2012. Net sales of the Company’s MH Segment increased 1 percent in 2013. The MH Segment represented 12 percent of consolidated net sales in 2013.

In 2013, the Company continued to grow outside its core RV and manufactured housing markets, with aggregate net sales of components for adjacent industries increasing 20 percent to $121 million, and aftermarket net sales increasing 21 percent to $39 million. Together, these markets now account for 16 percent of consolidated net sales, an increase from 10 percent of consolidated net sales in 2010.

For 2013, the Company reported net income of $50.1 million, or $2.11 per diluted share, an increase of 34 percent from net income of $37.3 million, or $1.64 per diluted share, for 2012. Excluding charges related to executive succession, net income would have been $51.3 million in 2013, or $2.16 per diluted share, up from net income of $38.3 million, or $1.68 per diluted share, in 2012.

At December 31, 2013, the Company had $66 million in cash, no debt, and substantial available borrowing capacity. On January 6, 2014, the Company paid a special cash dividend of $2.00 per share, an aggregate of $47 million, to holders of record of its Common Stock on December 20, 2013.

Acquisitions

On February 27, 2014, the Company acquired Innovative Design Solutions, Inc. (“IDS”), located in Troy, Michigan, a designer, developer and manufacturer of electronic systems encompassing a wide variety of RV applications. IDS also manufactures electronic systems for automotive, medical and industrial applications. IDS had annual sales of approximately $19 million in 2013, of which $13 million were to the Company. The purchase price was $36.0 million, of which $34.2 million was paid at closing, with the balance to be paid out annually over the subsequent three years, plus contingent consideration based on future sales. The acquisition of IDS provides the Company with further access to unique and innovative electronic products for the RV industry, as well as adjacent industries.

On December 13, 2013, the Company acquired the business and certain assets of Fortress Technologies, LLC (“Fortress”), a manufacturer of specialized RV chassis located in Middlebury, Indiana. Fortress had annualized sales of approximately $3 million. The purchase price was $3.3 million paid at closing. The acquisition of Fortress allows the Company to increase capacity to meet projected industry-wide growth in wholesale production of travel trailer and fifth-wheel RVs.

On June 24, 2013, the Company acquired the business and certain assets of Midstates Tool & Die and Engineering, Inc. (“Midstates”) located in Elkhart, Indiana. Midstates is a manufacturer of tools and dies, as well as automation equipment. The acquired business had annualized sales of approximately $2 million. The purchase price was $1.5 million paid at closing. The acquisition of Midstates will help the Company further automate its manufacturing processes to increase production efficiencies and improve product quality.

Other Developments

During the third quarter of 2013, the Company hired a new Director of International Business Development, who will spend time in Australia, Europe and China, assessing the dynamics of the local marketplace, building relationships with manufacturers and helping the Company introduce its existing products and develop new products for those markets. Over the past several years, the Company has been gradually growing sales overseas, primarily in Europe and Australia, and export sales represented approximately 1 percent of consolidated net sales in 2013. Through this new position, the Company will explore opportunities to increase sales of its products to international markets.

On February 24, 2014, the Company entered into a three-year extension of its existing $50 million revolving line of credit facility with JPMorgan Chase and Wells Fargo, which now expires in January 2019, and increased that facility from $50 million to $75 million. Simultaneously, the Company completed a three-year renewal of its uncommitted $150 million “shelf-loan” facility with Prudential Investment Management, Inc., which now expires in February 2017.

RV Segment

Through its wholly-owned subsidiaries, the Company manufactures and markets a variety of products used primarily in the production of RVs, including:

●	Steel chassis for towable RVs	●	Aluminum windows and screens
●	Axles and suspension solutions	●	Chassis components
	for towable RVs	●	Furniture and mattresses
●	Slide-out mechanisms and solutions	●	Entry, baggage, patio and ramp doors
●	Thermoformed bath, kitchen and	●	Entry Steps
	other products	●	Awnings
●	Manual, electric and hydraulic stabilizer and leveling systems	●	Other accessories

The Company also supplies certain of these products to the RV aftermarket, and to adjacent industries, including manufacturers of buses, trailers used to haul boats, livestock, equipment and other cargo, and truck caps.

In 2013, the RV Segment represented 88 percent of the Company's consolidated net sales, and 85 percent of consolidated segment operating profit. Approximately 81 percent of the Company’s RV Segment net sales in 2013 were of products to manufacturers of travel trailer and fifth-wheel RVs.

Raw materials used by the Company's RV Segment, consisting primarily of steel (coil, sheet, tube and I-beam), extruded aluminum, glass, wood, fabric and foam are available from a number of sources, both domestic and foreign.

Operations of the Company's RV Segment consist primarily of fabricating, welding, thermoforming, painting and assembling components into finished products. The Company's RV Segment operations are conducted at 27 manufacturing and warehouse facilities throughout the United States, strategically located in proximity to the customers they serve. Of these facilities, 6 also conduct operations in the Company's MH Segment. See Item 2. “Properties.”

5

In late 2011, the Company launched a newly-developed line of RV awnings. The awnings are available in both manual and electric versions. The market potential for the awning product line is in excess of $100 million for manufacturers of RVs and an estimated $75 million for aftermarket sales. The Company’s awning sales for 2013 were $13 million, and reached an annual run rate of approximately $25 million at the end of 2013, capturing approximately 25% of the original equipment manufacturer (“OEM”) market for awnings. The raw materials, components, and manufacturing processes used to manufacture awnings are very similar to those the Company uses in its other product lines. The Company markets its awnings directly to RV manufacturers, as well as through aftermarket distributors. Additional market share growth in awnings for both RV manufacturers and the aftermarket is expected for 2014.

The Company's RV Segment products are sold primarily to major manufacturers of RVs such as Thor Industries (symbol: THO), Forest River (a subsidiary of Berkshire Hathaway, symbol: BRKA), Jayco (a private company) and other OEMs, and, to a lesser extent, to distributors and retail dealers of aftermarket products.

The Company's RV Segment operations compete on the basis of customer service, product quality and innovation, price and reliability. Although definitive information is not readily available, the Company believes that with respect to its principal RV products (i) it is the leading supplier of windows and doors for towable RVs, and the Company’s market share for most of its towable RV window and door products is approximately 70 percent; (ii) the Company is the leading supplier of chassis and slide-out mechanisms for towable RVs, and the Company's market share for chassis and slide-out mechanisms for towable RVs exceeds 90 percent; (iii) the leading suppliers of axles for towable RVs are the Company, AL-KO Kober Corporation and Dexter Axle Company, and the Company’s market share for axles for towable RVs is approximately 45 percent; (iv) its market share for furniture for towable RVs is approximately 70 percent, and the Company competes with several other manufacturers; and (v) the leading suppliers of awnings for towable RVs are the Company, Carefree of Colorado and Dometic Corporation, and the Company’s market share for awnings for towable RVs is approximately 25 percent.

The Company’s share of the market for its products in adjacent industries cannot be readily determined; however, RV Segment net sales to adjacent industries increased from $74 million in 2012 to $93 million in 2013. The Company’s share of the aftermarket for RV parts also cannot be readily determined; however, RV Segment net sales to the aftermarket increased from $19 million in 2012 to $25 million in 2013. The Company has made investments to increase its share of both adjacent industries and the aftermarket, and is committed to continue these expansion efforts.

Detailed narrative information about the results of operations of the RV Segment is included in Item 7. “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.” Financial information relating to the Company’s business segments is included in Note 2 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 8 of this Report.

MH Segment

Through its wholly-owned subsidiaries, the Company manufactures and markets a variety of products used in the production of manufactured homes and to a lesser extent, modular housing and mobile office units, including:

●     Vinyl and aluminum windows and screens	●     Steel chassis
●     Thermoformed bath and kitchen products	●     Steel chassis parts
●      Steel and fiberglass entry doors	●     Axles
●     Aluminum and vinyl patio doors

The Company also supplies certain of these products to the manufactured housing aftermarket, and to adjacent industries.

In 2013, the MH Segment represented 12 percent of the Company's consolidated net sales, and 15 percent of consolidated segment operating profit. Certain of the Company’s MH Segment customers manufacture both manufactured homes and modular homes, and certain of the products manufactured by the Company are suitable for both types of homes. As a result, the Company is not always able to determine in which type of home its products are installed.

6

Raw materials used by the Company's MH Segment, consisting primarily of steel (coil, sheet and I-beam), extruded aluminum and vinyl, glass, and ABS resin, are available from a number of sources, both domestic and foreign.

Operations of the Company's MH Segment consist primarily of fabricating, welding, thermoforming, painting and assembling components into finished products. The Company's MH Segment operations are conducted at 13 manufacturing and warehouse facilities throughout the United States, strategically located in proximity to the customers they serve. Of these facilities, 6 also conduct operations in the Company's RV Segment. See Item 2. “Properties.”

The Company's manufactured housing products are sold primarily to major producers of manufactured homes such as Clayton Homes (a subsidiary of Berkshire Hathaway, symbol: BRKA), Cavco Industries, Inc. (symbol: CVCO), and other OEMs, and, to a lesser extent, to distributors of aftermarket products.

The Company's MH Segment competes on the basis of customer service, product quality and innovation, price and reliability. Although definitive information is not readily available, the Company believes that with respect to its principal manufactured housing products (i) it is the leading supplier of windows for manufactured homes, and the Company's market share for windows is approximately 70 percent; (ii) the Company's manufactured housing chassis and chassis parts operations compete with several other manufacturers of chassis and chassis parts, as well as with builders of manufactured homes, many of which produce their own chassis and chassis parts, and the Company’s market share for chassis and chassis parts for manufactured homes is approximately 20 percent; and (iii) the Company’s thermoformed bath and kitchen unit operation competes with three other manufacturers of bath and kitchen units, and the Company’s market share for bath and kitchen products in the product lines the Company supplies is approximately 60 percent.

The Company’s share of the market for its products in adjacent industries cannot be readily determined; however, MH Segment net sales to adjacent industries increased from $27 million in 2012 to $28 million in 2013. The Company’s share of the aftermarket for manufactured housing parts is not significant. The Company has made investments to increase its share of both adjacent industries and the aftermarket, and is committed to continue these expansion efforts.

Detailed narrative information about the results of operations of the MH Segment is included in Item 7. “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.” Financial information relating to the Company’s business segments is included in Note 2 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 8 of this Report.

Sales and Marketing

Other than the activities of its sales personnel and maintenance of customer relationships through quality of its products, innovation, service, price and customer satisfaction, the Company does not engage in significant marketing efforts, and does not incur significant marketing or advertising expenditures.

The Company has several supply agreements or other arrangements with certain of its customers that provide for prices of various products to be fixed for periods generally not in excess of eighteen months; however, in certain cases the Company has the right to renegotiate the prices on sixty-days notice. Both the RV Segment and the MH Segment typically ship products on average within one to two weeks of receipt of orders from their customers and, as a result, neither segment has any significant backlog.

7

Capacity

In 2013, the Company’s facilities operated at an average of approximately 60 percent of their practical capacity, assuming at least two shifts of production at all facilities. However, while certain facilities could add a second shift of production in the short term, the Company has found this to be inefficient over the long term. Capacity varies significantly based on seasonal demand, as well as by facility, product line and geographic region, with certain facilities at times operating below 50 percent utilization, and other facilities at times operating above 90 percent utilization.

At December 31, 2013, the Company operated 31 manufacturing facilities, and for most products has the ability to fill demand in excess of capacity at individual facilities by shifting production to other facilities, but the Company would incur additional freight costs. Capital expenditures for 2013 were $33 million. In January 2014, the Company entered into a nine year lease for a 350,000 square foot facility in Goshen, Indiana, to consolidate manufacturing operations for efficiency improvements and expand capacity for its furniture and mattress operations. The ability to expand capacity in certain product areas, if necessary, as well as the potential to reallocate existing resources, is monitored regularly by management to help ensure that the Company can maintain a high level of production efficiencies throughout its operations.

Seasonality

Manufacturing operations in the RV and manufactured housing industries historically have been seasonal and are generally at the highest levels when the weather is moderate. Accordingly, the Company’s sales and profits have generally been the highest in the second quarter and lowest in the fourth quarter. However, because of fluctuations in dealer inventories, and the impact of international, national and regional economic conditions and consumer confidence on retail sales of RVs and other products for which the Company sells its components, current and future seasonal industry trends may be different than in prior years.

International

During the third quarter of 2013, the Company hired a new Director of International Business Development, who will spend time in Australia, Europe and China, assessing the dynamics of the local marketplace, building relationships with manufacturers and helping the Company introduce its existing products and develop new products for those markets. Over the past several years, the Company has been gradually growing sales overseas, primarily in Europe and Australia, and export sales represented approximately 1 percent of consolidated net sales in 2013. Through this new position, the Company will explore opportunities to increase sales of its products to international markets.

Intellectual Property

The Company holds several United States and foreign patents and patent applications that relate to various products sold by the Company, and has granted certain licenses that permit third parties to manufacture and sell products in consideration for royalty payments. Approximately 10 percent of the Company’s consolidated net sales are generated by products covered by patents and patent applications held by the Company. The Company believes that its patents are valuable, and vigorously protects its patents when appropriate.

From time to time, the Company has received notices or claims that it may be infringing certain patent or other intellectual property rights of others, and the Company has given notices to, or asserted claims against, others that they may be infringing certain patent or other intellectual property rights of the Company. However, no material litigation is currently pending as a result of these claims.

8

Research and Development

The Company strives to be an industry leader in product innovation, with a research and development staff of more than 35 people focused on developing new products, as well as improving existing products. Research and development expenditures are expensed as they are incurred. Research and development expenses were approximately $5 million in 2013.

Regulatory Matters 

Windows and entry doors produced by the Company for manufactured homes must comply with performance and construction regulations promulgated by the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development (“HUD”) and by the American Architectural Manufacturers Association relating to air and water infiltration, structural integrity, thermal performance, emergency exit conformance, and hurricane resistance. Certain of the Company’s products must also comply with the International Code Council standards, such as the IRC (International Residential Code), the IBC (International Building Code), and the IECC (International Energy Conservation Code) as well as state and local building codes. Thermoformed bath products manufactured by the Company for manufactured homes must comply with performance and construction regulations promulgated by HUD.

Windows and doors produced by the Company for the RV industry must comply with regulations promulgated by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (“NHTSA”) of the United States Department of Transportation (“DOT”) governing safety glass performance, egress ability, door hinge and lock systems, egress window retention hardware, and baggage door ventilation. Windows produced by the Company for buses must comply with Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards promulgated by NHTSA.

Trailers produced by the Company for hauling boats, personal watercraft, snowmobiles and equipment must comply with Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards promulgated by NHTSA relating to lighting, braking, wheels, tires and other vehicle systems.

Rules promulgated under the Transportation Recall Enhancement, Accountability and Documentation Act (the “Tread Act”) require manufacturers of motor vehicles and certain motor vehicle related equipment to regularly make reports and submit documents and certain historical data to NHTSA to enhance motor vehicle safety, and to respond to requests for information relating to specific complaints or incidents.

Upholstered products and mattresses produced by the Company for motorized RVs and buses must comply with Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards promulgated by NHTSA regarding flammability. In addition, upholstered products and mattresses produced by the Company for motorized and towable RVs must comply with regulations promulgated by the Consumer Products Safety Commission regarding flammability, as well as standards for toxic chemical levels and labeling requirements promulgated by the California Office of Environmental Health Hazard Assessment. Plywood, particleboard and fiberboard used in RV products are required to comply with standards for formaldehyde emission levels promulgated by the California Air Resources Board and adopted by the Recreation Vehicle Industry Association (“RVIA”).

The Company believes that it is currently operating in compliance, in all material respects, with applicable laws and regulations and has made reports and submitted information as required. The Company does not believe that the expense of compliance with these laws and regulations, as currently in effect, will have a material effect on the Company's operations, financial condition or competitive position; however, there can be no assurance that this trend will continue as health and safety laws, regulations or other pertinent requirements evolve.

9

Environmental

The Company’s operations are subject to certain Federal, state and local regulatory requirements relating to the use, storage, discharge and disposal of hazardous materials used during the manufacturing processes. Although the Company believes its operations have been consistent with prevailing industry standards, and are in substantial compliance with applicable environmental laws and regulations, one or more of the Company’s operating sites, or adjacent sites owned by third-parties, have been affected by releases of hazardous materials. As a result, the Company may incur expenditures for future investigation and remediation of these sites. In the past, environmental compliance costs have not had, and are not expected in the future to have, a material effect on the Company’s operations or financial condition; however, there can be no assurance that this trend will continue.

Employees

The number of persons employed full-time by the Company and its subsidiaries at December 31, 2013 was 5,109, compared to 5,179 at December 31, 2012. The total at December 31, 2013 included 4,251 in manufacturing and product research and development, 245 in transportation, 50 in sales, 95 in customer support and servicing, and 468 in administration. None of the employees of the Company and its subsidiaries are subject to collective bargaining agreements. The Company and its subsidiaries believe that relations with its employees are good.

Item 1A.  RISK FACTORS.

The following risk factors should be considered carefully in addition to the other information contained in this Annual Report on Form 10-K. The risks and uncertainties described below are not the only ones we face, but represent the most significant risk factors that we believe may adversely affect the RV, manufactured housing and other industries we supply our products to, as well as our business, operations or financial position. The risks and uncertainties discussed in this report are not exclusive and other risk factors that we may consider immaterial or do not anticipate may emerge as significant risks and uncertainties.

Industry Risk Factors

Economic and business conditions beyond our control, including cyclicality and seasonality, have in the past had a significant adverse impact on our earnings, and could negatively impact our future results.

The RV and manufactured housing markets, as well as other markets where we sell our products or where our products are used, have been characterized by cycles of growth and contraction in consumer demand. Periods of economic recession have adversely affected, and could again adversely affect, our operating results. Companies in these industries are subject to volatility in production levels, shipments, sales and operating results due to changes in external factors such as general economic conditions, including credit availability, consumer confidence, employment rates, interest rates, inflation and other economic conditions affecting consumer demand, as well as demographic and political changes. Consequently, the results for any prior period may not be indicative of results for any future period.

Additionally, manufacturing operations in the RV and manufactured housing industries, as well as other industries where we sell our products or where our products are used, historically have been seasonal and are generally at the highest levels when the weather is moderate. Accordingly, our sales and profits have generally been the highest in the second quarter and lowest in the fourth quarter. However, because of fluctuations in dealer inventories, and the impact of international, national and regional economic conditions and consumer confidence on retail sales of RVs and other products for which we sell our components, current and future seasonal industry trends may be different than in prior years.

Reductions in the availability of wholesale financing limits the inventories carried by retail dealers of RVs and manufactured homes and other products which use our components, which would cause reduced production by our customers, and therefore reduced demand for our products.

Retail dealers of RVs and manufactured homes and other products which use our components generally finance their purchases of inventory with financing known as floor-plan financing provided by lending institutions. Reduction in the availability of floor-plan financing has in the past caused, and would cause, many dealers to reduce inventories, which would result in reduced production, resulting in reduced demand for our products.

11

Moreover, dealers which are unable to obtain adequate financing could cease operations. Their remaining inventories would likely be sold at deep discounts. Such sales would cause a decline in orders for new inventory, which would reduce demand for our products.

Conditions in the credit market could limit the ability of consumers to obtain retail financing for RVs and manufactured homes, resulting in reduced demand for our products.

Restrictions on the availability of financing for RVs and manufactured homes has limited, and could again limit, the ability of consumers to purchase RVs and manufactured homes, which would result in reduced production of RVs and manufactured homes by our customers, and therefore reduced demand for our products.

Loans used to finance the purchase of manufactured homes usually have shorter terms and higher interest rates, and are more difficult to obtain, than mortgages for site-built homes. Historically, lenders required higher down payment, higher credit scores and other criteria for these loans. Current lending criteria are higher than historical criteria, and many potential buyers of manufactured homes may not qualify.

The availability, cost, and terms of these manufactured housing loans are also dependent on economic conditions, lending practices of financial institutions, government policies, and other factors, all of which are beyond our control. Reductions in the availability of financing for manufactured homes and increases in the costs of this financing have limited, and could continue to limit, the ability of consumers to purchase manufactured homes, resulting in reduced production of manufactured homes by our customers, and therefore reduced demand for our products. In addition, certain provisions of the recently enacted Dodd-Frank Act, which regulate financial transactions, could make certain types of mortgages more difficult to obtain – in particular those historically used to finance the purchase of manufactured homes. Although new legislation has been introduced to address this matter, and the Bureau of Consumer Financial Protection is reviewing this matter, there can be no assurance of the outcome.

Excess inventories at dealers and manufacturers can cause a decline in the demand for our products.

Dealers and manufacturers could accumulate excess unsold inventory. Existence of excess inventory has in the past caused, and would cause, a reduction in orders, which would cause a decline in demand for our products.

High levels of repossessions of manufactured homes and RVs could cause manufacturers to reduce production of new manufactured homes and RVs, resulting in reduced demand for our products.

Repossessed manufactured homes and RVs are resold by lenders, often at substantially reduced prices, which reduces the demand for new manufactured homes and RVs. Economic conditions in the past have resulted, and could again result, in loan defaults and cause high levels of repossessions, which would cause manufacturers to reduce production of new manufactured homes and RVs, resulting in reduced demand for our products.

Gasoline shortages, or high prices for gasoline, could lead to reduced demand for our products.

Travel trailer and fifth-wheel RVs, components for which represented approximately 81 percent of our RV Segment net sales in 2013, are usually towed by light trucks or SUVs. Generally, these vehicles use more fuel than automobiles, particularly while towing RVs. High prices for gasoline, or anticipation of potential fuel shortages, can affect consumer use and purchase of light trucks and SUVs, which would result in reduced demand for travel trailer and fifth-wheel RVs, and therefore reduced demand for our products.

12

The manufactured housing industry has experienced a significant long-term decline in shipments, which has led to reduced demand for our products.

Our MH Segment, which accounted for 12 percent of consolidated net sales for 2013, operates in an industry which has experienced a decline in production of new homes compared to the peak of production in 1998. The downturn was caused, in part, by limited availability and high cost of financing for manufactured homes, and has been exacerbated by economic and political conditions.

Moreover, during weak markets for conventional housing, retirees may not be able to sell their primary residence, or may be unwilling to sell at currently depressed prices, and purchase less expensive manufactured homes as they have done in the past. In addition, the availability of foreclosed site-built homes at reduced prices or changes in zoning regulations have impacted, and could again impact, the demand for manufactured homes, and therefore reduce demand for our products.

Although industry-wide wholesale production of manufactured homes has improved in recent years, our annual results of operations could decline if manufactured housing industry conditions worsen.

Company-specific Risk Factors

Volatile raw material costs could adversely impact our financial condition and operating results.

The prices we pay for steel and aluminum, which represented approximately 50 percent and 15 percent of our raw material costs in 2013, respectively, and other key raw materials, have been volatile.

Because competition and business conditions may limit the amount or timing of increases in raw material costs that can be passed through to our customers in the form of sales price increases, future increases in raw material costs could adversely impact our financial condition and operating results. Conversely, as raw material costs decline, we may not be able to maintain selling prices consistent with higher cost raw materials in our inventory, which could adversely affect our operating results.

Inadequate supply of raw materials used to make our products could adversely impact our financial condition and operating results.

If raw materials or components that are used in manufacturing our products, particularly those which we import, become unavailable, or if the supply of these raw materials and components is interrupted, our manufacturing operations could be adversely affected. We currently import, or purchase from suppliers who import, approximately 20 percent of our raw materials and components.

The loss of any customer accounting for more than 10 percent of our consolidated net sales could have a material adverse impact on our operating results.

One customer of the RV Segment accounted for 31 percent, and another customer of both the RV Segment and the MH Segment accounted for 28 percent, of our consolidated net sales in 2013. The loss of either of these customers would have a material adverse impact on our operating results and financial condition.

Changes in consumer preferences relating to our products could cause reduced sales.

Changes in consumer preferences, or our inability to anticipate changes in consumer preferences, for RVs or manufactured homes, or for the products we make for RVs and manufactured homes, could reduce demand for our products and adversely affect our operating results and financial condition.

Competitive pressures could reduce demand for our products or impact our sales prices.

Domestic and foreign competitors may lower prices on products which currently compete with our products, or develop product improvements, which could reduce demand for our products or cause us to reduce prices for our products. In addition, the manufacture by our customers themselves of products supplied by us could reduce demand for our products and adversely affect our operating results and financial condition.

13

Increases in demand could result in difficulty obtaining additional skilled labor, and available capacity may initially not be utilized efficiently.

In certain geographic regions in which we have manufacturing facilities we have experienced, and could again experience, shortages of qualified employees. If demand continues to increase, we may not be able to increase production to timely satisfy demand, and may initially incur higher labor and production costs, which could adversely impact our operating results and financial condition.

We may incur unexpected expenses, or face unanticipated delays, in connection with investments we make in our business, which could adversely impact our results.

It may take longer than initially anticipated for us to realize expected results from investments we have made in research and development or acquired businesses, as well as initiatives we have implemented to increase capacity and improve production efficiencies, automation, customer service and other aspects of our business, or we may incur unexpected expense in connection with these matters. These results would have an adverse effect on our operating results and financial condition.

We have recently entered new markets in order to enhance our growth potential. Uncertainties with respect to these new markets could impact our operating results.

We are a leading supplier of components for RVs and manufactured housing, and currently have a significant share of the market for certain of our products, which limits our ability to expand our market share for those products. We have made investments in order to expand the sale of our products in the RV and manufactured housing aftermarket, and in adjacent industries beyond RVs and manufactured housing. We are also exploring opportunities to increase export sales of our products to international markets. Lack of demand for our products in these markets or competitive pressures requiring us to lower prices for our products would adversely impact our business in these markets and our results of operations.

If acquired businesses are not successfully integrated into our operations, our financial condition and operating results could be adversely impacted.

We have engaged, and may continue to engage, in acquisitions, and may participate in joint ventures and other business transactions that involve potential risks, including failure to successfully integrate and realize the expected benefits of such transactions, assumption of liabilities of the acquired businesses, and possible culture conflicts. Integrating acquired operations is a significant challenge and there is no assurance that we will be able to manage the integrations successfully. If we are unable to efficiently integrate these businesses into our existing operations, the attention of our management could be diverted from our existing operations, which could impair our ability to execute our business plans. Failure to successfully integrate acquired operations or to realize the expected benefits of such acquisitions may have an adverse impact on our results of operations and financial condition.

The loss of any of our key operating management could reduce our ability to execute our business strategy and could adversely affect our business and results of operations.

We are dependent to a significant extent upon the efforts of our key operating management. The loss of the services of one or more of our key operating management could impair our ability to execute our business strategy, which would have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

14

Our business is subject to governmental and environmental regulations, and increased costs of compliance, failure in our compliance efforts or events beyond our control could result in damages, expenses or liabilities that could adversely impact our financial condition and operating results.

Our operations are subject to various governmental and environmental regulations, and the failure to comply with present or future regulations could result in fines or potential civil or criminal liability. We believe that our operations and facilities have been and are being operated in compliance, in all material respects, with such laws and regulations. The operation of our manufacturing facilities entails risks, however, and there can be no assurance that we will not incur material costs or liabilities. In addition, potentially significant expenditures could be required in order to comply with evolving healthcare, environmental, health and safety laws, regulations or other pertinent requirements that may be adopted or imposed in the future by governmental authorities.

Compliance with conflict mineral disclosure requirements will create additional compliance cost and may create reputational challenges.

In August 2012, the SEC adopted new rules pursuant to Section 1502 of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act setting forth new disclosure requirements concerning the use or potential use of certain minerals, deemed conflict minerals (tantalum, tin, gold and tungsten), that are mined from the Democratic Republic of Congo and adjoining countries. These new requirements will necessitate due diligence efforts on our part to assess whether such minerals are used in our products in order to make the relevant required disclosures beginning in May 2014. There will be costs associated with complying with these disclosure requirements, including for diligence to determine the sources of conflict minerals used in our products and other potential changes to products, processes or sources of supply as a consequence of such verification activities. The implementation of these rules could adversely affect the sourcing, supply and pricing of materials used in our products. As there may be only a limited number of suppliers offering conflict-free minerals, we cannot be sure that we will be able to obtain necessary conflict minerals from such suppliers in sufficient quantities or at competitive prices. We may also face reputational challenges if we determine that certain of our products contain minerals not determined to be conflict free or if we are unable to sufficiently verify the origins for all conflict minerals used in our products through the procedures we may implement.

If we expand our business internationally, we will be subject to new operational and financial risks.

During the third quarter of 2013, we hired a new Director of International Business Development, who will spend time in Australia, Europe and China, assessing the dynamics of the local marketplace, building relationships with manufacturers and helping us introduce our existing products and develop new products for those markets. Over the past several years, we have been gradually growing sales overseas, primarily in Europe and Australia, and export sales represented approximately 1 percent of consolidated net sales in 2013.

Business outside of the United States is subject to various risks, many of which are beyond our control, including: changes in tariffs, trade restrictions, trade agreements, and taxations; difficulties in managing or overseeing foreign operations and agents; foreign currency fluctuations and limitations on the repatriation of funds because of foreign exchange controls; different liability standards; and intellectual property laws of countries which do not protect our rights in our intellectual property to the same extent as the laws of the United States. The occurrence or consequences of any of these factors may have an adverse impact on our operating results and financial condition, as well as impact our ability to operate in international markets.

Item 7.     MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

This Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto included in Item 8 of this Report.

The Company has two reportable segments; the recreational vehicle (“RV”) products segment (the “RV Segment”) and the manufactured housing products segment (the “MH Segment”). Intersegment sales are insignificant.

The Company’s operations are conducted through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Lippert Components, Inc. and its subsidiaries (collectively, “Lippert Components”). Effective December 2013, the Company completed the tax-free reorganization of Kinro, Inc. and its subsidiaries with and into Lippert Components. At December 31, 2013, the Company operated 31 manufacturing facilities in 11 states.

Effective with the second quarter of 2013, in connection with the management succession and relocation of the corporate office from New York to Indiana, corporate expenses, accretion related to contingent consideration and other non-segment items, which were previously reported on separate lines, have been included as part of segment operating profit. Corporate expenses are allocated between the segments based upon net sales. Accretion related to contingent consideration and other non-segment items are included in the segment to which they relate. The segment disclosures from prior years have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.

Net sales and operating profit were as follows for the years ended December 31:

RV Segment		7.6%		6.0%		6.6%
MH Segment		9.8%		10.3%		9.8%

The Company’s RV Segment manufactures a variety of products used primarily in the production of RVs, including:

● Steel chassis for towable RVs	● Aluminum windows and screens
● Axles and suspension solutions for towable RVs	● Chassis components
● Slide-out mechanisms and solutions	● Furniture and mattresses
● Thermoformed bath, kitchen and other products	● Entry, baggage, patio and ramp doors
● Entry steps	● Awnings
● Manual, electric and hydraulic stabilizer and leveling systems	● Other accessories

The Company also supplies certain of these products to the RV aftermarket. In addition, the Company manufactures components for adjacent industries, including buses, trailers used to haul boats, livestock, equipment and other cargo, and truck caps. Approximately 81 percent of the Company’s RV Segment net sales in 2013 were of products to OEMs of travel trailer and fifth-wheel RVs. Travel trailer and fifth-wheel RVs accounted for 83 percent of all RVs shipped by the industry in 2013.

22

The Company’s MH Segment manufactures a variety of products used in the production of manufactured homes and to a lesser extent, modular housing and mobile office units, including:

●Vinyl and aluminum windows and screens	●Steel chassis
●Thermoformed bath and kitchen products	●Steel chassis parts
●Steel and fiberglass entry doors	●Axles
●Aluminum and vinyl patio doors

The Company also supplies certain of these products to the manufactured housing aftermarket, and to adjacent industries. Certain of the Company’s MH Segment customers manufacture both manufactured homes and modular homes, and certain of the products manufactured by the Company are suitable for both types of homes. As a result, the Company is not always able to determine in which type of home its products are installed.

Because of fluctuations in dealer inventories, and the impact of international, national and regional economic conditions and consumer confidence on retail sales of RVs and other products for which we sell our components, current and future seasonal industry trends may be different than in prior years.

INDUSTRY BACKGROUND

Recreational Vehicle Industry

An RV is a vehicle designed as temporary living quarters for recreational, camping, travel or seasonal use. RVs may be motorized (motorhomes) or towable (travel trailers, fifth-wheel travel trailers, folding camping trailers and truck campers).

According to the Recreation Vehicle Industry Association (“RVIA”), industry-wide wholesale shipments of travel trailer and fifth-wheel RVs in 2013, the Company’s primary RV markets, increased 10 percent to 268,000 units compared to 2012, as a result of:

● A 30,700 unit increase in retail demand in 2013, or 14 percent, as compared to 2012. In addition, retail demand is typically revised upward in subsequent months.

● RV dealers increasing inventory levels by 14,600 units in 2013, or 5,600 less units than in 2012. The 2013 increase occurred largely in the fourth quarter of 2013.

The annual sales cycle for the RV industry has historically started in October after the “Open House” in Elkhart, Indiana where RV OEMs display product to RV retail dealers, and ended after the conclusion of the Summer selling season in September. Between October and March, industry-wide wholesale shipments of travel trailer and fifth-wheel RVs have historically exceeded retail sales, and between April and September, the Spring and Summer selling seasons, retail sales of travel trailer and fifth-wheel RVs have historically exceeded industry-wide wholesale shipments. Most industry analysts report dealer inventories of travel trailer and fifth-wheel RVs are in-line with anticipated retail demand in the upcoming Spring 2014 selling season.

While the Company measures its RV sales against industry-wide wholesale shipment statistics, the underlying health of the RV industry is determined by retail demand. A comparison of the number of units and the year-over-year percentage change in industry-wide wholesale shipments and retail sales of travel trailers and fifth-wheel RVs, as reported by Statistical Surveys, Inc., as well as the resulting change in dealer inventories, for both the United States and Canada, is as follows:

	Wholesale				Retail				Estimated Unit Impact on Dealer
	Units		Change		Units		Change		Inventories
Year ended December 31, 2013		268,000		10%		253,400		14%		14,600
Year ended December 31, 2012		242,900		14%		222,700		8%		20,200
Year ended December 31, 2011		212,900		7%		206,000		11%		6,900

According to the RVIA, industry-wide wholesale shipments of motorhome RVs in 2013 increased 36 percent to 38,300 units compared to 2012. Retail demand for motorhome RVs increased 31 percent in 2013, following a 6 percent increase in retail demand in 2012.

While RV production in 2013 was strong, unless retail demand matches these production levels, dealers could reduce the pace of their orders, and our customers, the OEMs, would need to adjust their production levels in future months. Ultimately, industry-wide retail sales, and therefore production levels of RVs, will depend to a significant extent on the course of the economy. Retail sales of RVs historically have been closely tied to general economic conditions, as well as consumer confidence which has fluctuated in recent months.

In November 2013, the RVIA projected a 4 percent increase in industry-wide wholesale shipments of travel trailer and fifth-wheel RVs for 2014, to 279,100. The Company is also encouraged that several key customers are introducing new product lines, as well as increasing production capacity. The Company also remains confident in its ability to exceed industry growth rates through new product introductions, market share gains, acquisitions and ongoing investments in research and development, engineering, quality and customer service.

Over the long term, the Company expects RV industry sales to be aided by positive demographics, and the continued popularity of the “RV Lifestyle”. Further, the number of consumers between the ages of 55 and 70 are projected to total 56 million by 2020, 27 percent higher than in 2010, according to U.S. Census figures, and one in ten vehicle-owning households between 50 and 64 own at least one RV.

Further, the RVIA has a generic advertising campaign promoting the “RV lifestyle”. The current campaign is targeted at both parents aged 30-49 with children at home, as well as couples aged 50-64 with no children at home. The popularity of traveling in RVs to NASCAR and other sporting events, more family-oriented domestic vacations, and using RVs as second homes, also appear to motivate consumer demand for RVs. RVIA studies indicate that RV vacations cost significantly less than other forms of vacation.

Manufactured Housing Industry

Manufactured homes are built entirely in a factory on permanent steel undercarriages or chassis to which axles and wheels are attached. The homes are then transported to a manufactured housing dealer which sells and transports the home to the buyer’s home site. The manufactured home is installed pursuant to a federal building code administered by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (“HUD”). The federal standards regulate manufactured housing design and construction, methods to site and secure the home at a home site, strength and durability, transportability, fire resistance, energy efficiency and quality. The HUD code also sets performance standards for the heating, plumbing, air conditioning, thermal and electrical systems. It is the only federally regulated national building code. On-site additions, such as garages, decks and porches, often add to the attractiveness of manufactured homes and must be built to local, state or regional building codes. A manufactured home may be sited on owned or leased land.

24

Manufactured homes contain one or more “floors” or sections which can be joined to make larger homes. A typical section may range in size from 800 to 1,200 square feet. During 2013, multi-section homes were 53 percent of the total manufactured homes produced, consistent with 2012, and above the 51 percent for 2011. Multi-section homes averaged 64 percent of the total manufactured homes produced between 2007 and 2010. Multi-section manufactured homes contain more of the Company’s products than single-section manufactured homes.

The Institute for Building Technology and Safety (“IBTS”) reported industry-wide wholesale shipments of manufactured homes were 60,200 units in 2013, an increase of 10 percent from 2012. For the full year 2012, there were 54,900 industry-wide wholesale shipments of manufactured homes, an increase of 6 percent compared to 2011.

Industry-wide wholesale shipments by the manufactured housing industry have experienced a decline from the peak of industry-wide production in 1998 for a variety of reasons. Because of the current real estate, credit and economic environment, including the availability of foreclosed site built homes at low prices and high interest rate spreads between conventional mortgages for site-built homes and loans for manufactured homes, industry-wide wholesale shipments of manufactured homes may remain low until these conditions improve. In addition, certain provisions of the recently enacted Dodd-Frank Act, which regulate financial transactions, could make certain types of mortgages more difficult to obtain – in particular those historically used to finance the purchase of manufactured homes. Although new legislation has been introduced to address this matter, and the Bureau of Consumer Financial Protection is reviewing this matter, there can be no assurance of the outcome.

Nevertheless, the Company believes that long-term growth prospects for manufactured housing remain positive because of (i) the quality and affordability of the home, (ii) favorable demographic trends, including the increasing number of retirees who, in the past, had represented a significant market for manufactured homes, and (iii) pent-up demand by retirees who have been unable or unwilling to sell their primary residence at current market prices and purchase a manufactured home.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Year Ended December 31, 2013 Compared to Year Ended December 31, 2012

Consolidated Highlights

■ Net sales for the year ended December 31, 2013 increased by $114 million, to a record $1.02 billion. The Company’s RV Segment net sales increased 14 percent, compared to the 10 percent increase in industry-wide wholesale shipments of travel trailer and fifth-wheel RVs, the Company's primary RV market. Sales growth in new markets and new products continued to be key factors in enabling the Company’s sales to exceed RV industry growth rates. Acquisitions did not have a significant impact on the increase in net sales for 2013.

■ In 2013, the Company continued to grow outside its core RV and manufactured housing markets, with aggregate net sales of components for adjacent industries increasing 20 percent to $121 million, and aftermarket net sales increasing 21 percent to $39 million. Together, these markets now account for 16 percent of consolidated net sales, an increase from 9 percent of consolidated net sales in 2010.

■ Despite the negative impact of the severe winter weather conditions during January 2014 on industry-wide production of RVs and manufactured homes, as well as on shipments of the Company’s products, the Company’s net sales for the first two months of 2014 reached approximately $176 million, 5 percent higher than the comparable period of 2013. However, there can be no assurance that this trend will continue. The Company is optimistic that the industry-wide production delays from January 2014 will be made up over the coming months.

25

■ For 2013, the Company’s net income increased to $50.1 million, or $2.11 per diluted share, up from net income of $37.3 million, or $1.64 per diluted share, in 2012. Excluding charges related to executive succession, net income would have been $51.3 million in 2013, or $2.16 per diluted share, up from net income of $38.3 million, or $1.68 per diluted share, in 2012.

The Company’s operating profit margin in 2013 improved to 7.7 percent, compared to 6.5 percent in 2012, primarily due to management’s recently implemented efficiency improvements. The improvements in labor during 2013 were primarily due to completed production efficiency projects, as well as declines in the costs of implementing facility consolidations and realignments. These labor efficiencies were realized throughout 2013 while introducing new products and adjusting to industry and market share growth. The Company is continuing to implement additional efficiency improvements as they are identified.

In anticipation of future growth, the Company continues to expand and improve production capacity, investing in personnel and facilities in excess of current needs. In addition, the Company plans to invest in areas where it believes additional savings can be realized, such as purchasing, automation and human resources. While some of these initiatives and related fixed costs may have a negative impact on operating margins in the short term, the Company believes they will benefit the long-term growth of the Company, and improve its industry-leading customer service.

■ For 2013, the Company achieved a 16.0 percent return on equity, an improvement from the 12.7 percent return on equity in 2012.

■ On May 10, 2013, Fredric M. Zinn retired as President and Chief Executive Officer of Drew. Jason D. Lippert, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Lippert Components, succeeded Mr. Zinn as Chief Executive Officer of Drew. Scott T. Mereness, President of Lippert Components, succeeded Mr. Zinn as President of Drew. In June 2013, the Company also relocated its corporate headquarters from White Plains, New York to Elkhart County, Indiana, the location of the corporate headquarters of Lippert Components. As a result of the executive succession and corporate relocation, the Company expects to save an estimated $2 million annually in general and administrative costs.

■ At December 31, 2013, the Company had $66 million in cash and no debt, and had almost $200 million in unused credit lines.

In January 2014, the Company paid a special dividend of $2.00 per share, aggregating $47 million.

On February 24, 2014, the Company entered into a three-year extension of its existing $50 million revolving line of credit facility with JPMorgan Chase and Wells Fargo, which now expires in January 2019, and increased that facility from $50 million to $75 million. Simultaneously, the Company completed a three-year renewal of its uncommitted $150 million “shelf-loan” facility with Prudential Capital Group, which now expires in February 2017.

The Company remains well-positioned to continue to take advantage of investment opportunities to further improve its results.

26

■ On February 27, 2014, the Company acquired Innovative Design Solutions, Inc. (“IDS”), a designer, developer and manufacturer of electronic systems encompassing a wide variety of RV applications. IDS also manufactures electronic systems for automotive, medical and industrial applications. IDS had annual sales of approximately $19 million in 2013, of which $13 million were to the Company. The purchase price was $36.0 million, of which $34.2 million was paid at closing, with the balance to be paid out annually over the subsequent three years, plus contingent consideration based on future sales. The acquisition of IDS provides the Company with further access to unique and innovative electronic products for the RV industry, as well as adjacent industries.

RV Segment

Net sales of the RV Segment in 2013 increased 14 percent, or $113 million, compared to 2012. Net sales of components were to the following markets for the years ending December 31:

(In thousands)	2013		2012		Change
RV OEMs:
Travel trailers and fifth-wheels	$	727,783	$	653,478		11%
Motorhomes		47,937		34,612		38%
RV aftermarket		25,334		19,119		33%
Adjacent industries		92,640		73,716		26%
Total RV Segment net sales	$	893,694	$	780,925		14%

According to the RVIA, industry-wide wholesale shipments for the years ended December 31, were:

	2013		2012		Change
Travel trailer and fifth-wheel RVs		268,000		242,900		10%
Motorhomes		38,300		28,200		36%

The Company’s net sales growth in components for travel trailer and fifth-wheel RVs during 2013 exceeded the increase in industry-wide wholesale shipments of travel trailer and fifth-wheel RVs primarily due to market share gains of $6 million.

The Company’s net sales growth in components for motorhomes during 2013 exceeded the increase in industry-wide wholesale shipments of motorhomes primarily due to market share gains. Over the past few years, the Company has been expanding its product line of components for motorhomes in order to increase its customer base and market penetration, and further growth is expected.

The trend in the Company’s average product content per RV produced is an indicator of the Company’s overall market share of components for new RVs. The Company’s average product content per type of RV, calculated based upon the Company’s net sales of components to RV OEMs for the different types of RVs produced for the years ended December 31, divided by the industry-wide wholesale shipments of the different types of RVs for the same period, was:

Content per:	2013		2012		Change
Travel trailer and fifth-wheel RV	$	2,716	$	2,690		1%
Motorhome	$	1,252	$	1,227		2%

27

The Company’s average product content per type of RV excludes sales to the aftermarket and adjacent industries. Content per RV is impacted by market share gains, acquisitions, new product introductions, and changes in selling prices for the Company’s products, as well as changes in the types of RVs produced industry-wide. In the second quarter of 2013, the Company refined the calculation of content per unit. This refinement had no impact on total RV Segment net sales or trends. Prior periods have been reclassified to conform to this presentation.

The Company’s net sales to the RV aftermarket and adjacent industries, including components for buses, trailers used to haul boats, livestock, equipment and other cargo, and truck caps, increased during 2013 primarily due to market share gains. The Company believes there are significant opportunities in the RV aftermarket and adjacent industries.

During the third quarter of 2013, the Company hired a new Director of International Business Development, who will spend time in Australia, Europe and China, assessing the dynamics of the local marketplace, building relationships with manufacturers and helping the Company introduce its existing products and develop new products for those markets. Over the past several years, the Company has been gradually growing sales overseas, primarily in Europe and Australia, and export sales represent approximately 1 percent of consolidated net sales in 2013. Through this new position, the Company will explore opportunities to increase sales of its products to international markets.

Operating profit of the RV Segment was $68.2 million in 2013, an improvement of $21.1 million compared to 2012. This increase in RV Segment operating profit was consistent with the Company’s expected 15 to 20 percent incremental margin.

The operating profit margin of the RV Segment in 2013 was positively impacted by:

● Lower material costs. After increasing temporarily in the latter part of 2012, steel and aluminum costs declined during 2013. In addition, material costs in the latter half of 2012 were negatively impacted by increased outsourcing costs due to capacity limitations, as well as higher scrap costs due to production inefficiencies. However, material costs have increased in the beginning of 2014 and remain volatile.

● Improved labor efficiencies, primarily due to completed production efficiency projects implemented by management, as well as declines in the costs of implementing facility consolidations and realignments. These labor efficiencies were realized throughout 2013 while introducing new products and adjusting to industry and market share growth. The Company is continuing to implement additional efficiency improvements as they are identified.

● The spreading of fixed manufacturing and selling, general and administrative costs over a $113 million larger net sales base.

Partially offset by:

● Fixed costs, which were approximately $18 million to $20 million higher than in 2012. In response to the substantial increase in sales over the past several quarters, the Company added significant resources, investing in personnel and facilities to expand and improve production capacity and efficiencies, as well as to improve customer service.

28

In anticipation of future growth, the Company continues to expand and improve production capacity, investing in personnel and facilities in excess of current needs. In addition, the Company plans to invest in areas where it believes additional savings can be realized, such as purchasing, automation and human resources. While some of these initiatives and related fixed costs may have a negative impact on operating margins in the short term, the Company believes they will benefit the long-term growth of the Company, and improve its customer service.

● Incentive compensation, which is based on profits, rather than sales, did not change proportionately with net sales.

● Higher supplies and repairs expense.

MH Segment

Net sales of the MH Segment in 2013 increased 1 percent, or $2 million, compared to 2012. Net sales of components were to the following markets for the years ending December 31:

(In thousands)	2013		2012		Change
Manufactured housing OEMs	$	80,245	$	80,392		0%
Manufactured housing aftermarket		13,719		13,110		5%
Adjacent industries		27,918		26,696		5%
Total MH Segment net sales	$	121,882	$	120,198		1%

According to the IBTS, industry-wide wholesale shipments for the years ended December 31, were:

	2013		2012		Change
Total homes produced		60,200		54,900		10%
Total floors produced		92,900		84,800		10%

The Company’s net sales growth in components for new manufactured homes was less than the increase in industry-wide wholesale shipments of manufactured homes, primarily due to customer mix, as the Company’s content per unit varies between customers, and loss of market share for certain products. Content per manufactured home and content per floor are impacted by market share changes, acquisitions and new product introductions, changes in selling prices for the Company’s products, as well as changes in the types of floors produced industry-wide.

Net sales to the manufactured housing aftermarket and adjacent industries increased due to market share gains. The Company believes there are opportunities in the manufactured housing aftermarket and adjacent industries.

The trend in the Company’s average product content per manufactured home produced is an indicator of the Company’s overall market share of components for new manufactured homes. Manufactured homes contain one or more “floors” or sections which can be joined to make larger homes. The larger homes typically contain more of the Company’s products. The Company’s average product content per manufactured home produced by the industry and total manufactured home floors produced by the industry, calculated based upon the Company’s net sales of components to manufactured housing OEMs for newly produced manufactured homes for the years ended December 31, divided by the number of manufactured homes and manufactured home floors produced by the industry, respectively, for the same period, was:

Content per:	2013		2012		Change
Home produced	$	1,332	$	1,465		(9%)
Floor produced	$	864	$	948		(9%)

29

The Company’s average product content per manufactured home excludes sales of replacement parts to the aftermarket and sales to adjacent industries. Content per manufactured home and content per floor are impacted by market share changes, acquisitions and new product introductions, and changes in selling prices for the Company’s products, as well as changes in the types of floors produced industry-wide.

Operating profit of the MH Segment was $11.9 million in 2013, a decrease of $0.5 million compared to 2012. This decrease was primarily due to increased labor and related costs, partially offset by lower raw material costs. Further, during 2012, the Company recorded a gain of $0.4 million, which did not recur in 2013.

Year Ended December 31, 2012 Compared to Year Ended December 31, 2011

Consolidated Highlights

■ Net sales for 2012 reached $901 million, a 32 percent increase over net sales of $681 million in 2011, as both of the Company’s segments achieved greater net sales growth than the industries they serve. This sales growth was primarily the result of a 37 percent sales increase by Drew’s RV Segment, which accounted for 87 percent of Drew’s consolidated net sales in 2012. RV Segment sales growth was primarily due to a 14 percent increase in industry-wide wholesale shipments of travel trailer and fifth-wheel RVs, Drew’s primary RV market, as well as acquisitions, new product introductions, market share gains, and increased sales to adjacent industries, such as buses, truck caps, and trailers used to haul boats, livestock, equipment and other cargo. Excluding the impact of acquisitions, consolidated net sales increased 23 percent.

■ In 2012, the Company continued to grow outside its core RV and manufactured housing markets, with aggregate net sales of components for adjacent industries increasing 64 percent, to $100 million, and aftermarket sales increasing 16 percent to $32 million in 2012. Together, these markets accounted for nearly 15 percent of consolidated net sales in 2012, as compared to 9 percent of consolidated net sales in 2010.

■ For 2012, the Company’s net income increased to $37.3 million, or $1.64 per diluted share. Excluding charges related to executive succession, net income would have been $38.3 million in 2012, or $1.68 per diluted share, up from net income of $30.1 million, or $1.34 per diluted share in 2011.

Net income in 2012 was impacted by lower operating efficiencies resulting from training in excess of 1,000 new employees, overtime, outsourcing and other costs required to meet the greater than expected $220 million net sales increase in 2012. In addition, the Company incurred facility consolidation and realignment costs in order to meet the rising demand for its products. Further, the Company continued to incur costs related to its investments in aluminum extrusion, awnings, and the aftermarket, and also incurred costs related to process changes and lean manufacturing initiatives.

Over the latter half of 2012, the Company developed and implemented action plans to increase capacity and improve efficiencies. In certain product lines, the Company began to realize the benefits of these initiatives in 2012.

■ For 2012, the Company achieved a 12.7 percent return on equity, an improvement from the 11.4 percent return on equity in 2011.

■ As a result of the Company’s executive succession and corporate relocation, the Company recorded a pre-tax charge of $1.5 million in the fourth quarter of 2012 related to the contractual obligations for severance and the acceleration of equity awards for certain employees whose employment terminated as a result of the relocation to Indiana.

■ On December 20, 2012, a special dividend of $2.00 per share of the Company’s Common Stock, or an aggregate of $45.0 million, was paid to stockholders of record as of December 10, 2012. At December 31, 2012, after payment of the special dividend, the Company had $9.9 million of cash, no debt, and substantial available borrowing capacity.

30

RV Segment

Net sales of the RV Segment in 2012 increased 37 percent, or $210 million, compared to 2011. Net sales of components were to the following markets:

(In thousands)	2012		2011		Change
RV OEMs:
Travel trailers and fifth-wheels	$	653,478	$	497,544		31%
Motorhomes		34,612		17,492		98%
RV aftermarket		19,119		14,660		30%
Adjacent industries		73,716		40,947		80%
Total RV Segment net sales	$	780,925	$	570,643		37%

According to the RVIA, industry-wide wholesale shipments for the years ended December 31, were:

	2012		2011		Change
Travel trailer and fifth-wheel RVs		242,900		212,900		14%
Motorhomes		28,200		24,800		14%

The Company’s net sales growth in components for travel trailer and fifth-wheel RVs during 2012 exceeded the increase in industry-wide wholesale shipments of travel trailer and fifth-wheel RVs primarily due to the acquisitions completed in 2011 and 2012, which added $40 million in net sales during 2012, and market share gains of $35 million. The Company also implemented sales price increases of $8 million.

The Company’s net sales growth in components for motorhomes during 2012 exceeded the increase in industry-wide wholesale shipments of motorhomes due to market share gains of $10 million, as well as acquisitions completed in 2011 which added $4 million in net sales during 2012.

The Company’s net sales to the RV aftermarket increased during 2012 due to market share gains, resulting from the dedicated sales team established in 2011 to focus on this market.

Net sales to adjacent industries, including components for buses, trailers used to haul boats, livestock, equipment and other cargo, and truck caps, increased during 2012 due to market share gains of $20 million and acquisitions in 2011 which added $13 million in net sales during 2012.

31

The trend in the Company’s average product content per RV produced is an indicator of the Company’s overall market share of components for new RVs. The Company’s average product content per type of RV, calculated based upon the Company’s net sales of components to RV OEMs for the different types of RVs produced for the years ended December 31, divided by the industry-wide wholesale shipments of the different types of RVs for the same period, was:

Content per:	2012		2011		Change
Travel trailer and fifth-wheel RV	$	2,690	$	2,337		15%
Motorhome	$	1,227	$	705		74%

The Company’s average product content per type of RV excludes sales to the aftermarket and adjacent industries. Content per RV is impacted by market share gains, acquisitions, new product introductions, and changes in selling prices for the Company’s products, as well as changes in the types of RVs produced industry-wide. In the first quarter of 2012 and the second quarter of 2013, the Company refined the calculation of content per unit to better identify aftermarket sales, as well as sales to adjacent industries. There was no change in total reported net sales for the RV Segment, and all prior periods have also been refined for consistency.

Operating profit of the RV Segment was $47.2 million in 2012, an improvement of $9.5 million compared to 2011. This increase in RV Segment operating profit was less than the Company’s expected 15 to 20 percent incremental margin.

The operating margin of the RV Segment in 2012 was negatively impacted by:

●

Lower operating efficiencies resulting from training in excess of 1,000 new employees, overtime, outsourcing and other costs required to meet the greater than expected $210 million net sales increase in 2012. In addition, the Company incurred facility consolidation and realignment costs in order to meet the rising demand for its products. Further, the Company continued to incur costs related to its investments in aluminum extrusion, awnings, and the aftermarket, and also incurred costs related to process changes and lean manufacturing initiatives. As a result of these factors, the RV Segment operating margin was negatively impacted by more than 3 percent.

Over the latter half of 2012, the Company developed and implemented action plans to increase capacity and improve efficiencies and customer service. In particular, among other initiatives, the Company has:

● Expanded its RV chassis and window production capacity,

● Consolidated its furniture operation,

● Purchased additional glass tempering equipment,

● Begun implementing lean manufacturing principles, and

● Hired a new Vice President of Customer Service and increased customer service capabilities.

	In certain product lines, the Company began to realize the benefits of these initiatives in 2012.
●	An increase in fixed costs of approximately $8 million, primarily due to additional staff and facilities to expand capacity and meet the increase in sales demand, as well as higher amortization, largely related to acquisitions and other investments.

● Higher warranty and health insurance costs, primarily due to higher claims experience, as well as higher repairs and supplies expense.

32

Partially offset by:

● Lower material costs. After rising at the beginning of 2012, steel and aluminum costs have declined over the past few quarters, which benefitted operating results in the latter half of 2012.

● The spreading of fixed manufacturing and selling, general and administrative costs over a $210 million larger net sales base.

MH Segment

Net sales of the MH Segment in 2012 increased 9 percent, or $10 million, compared to 2011. Net sales of components were to the following markets:

(In thousands)	2012		2011		Change
Manufactured housing OEMs	$	80,392	$	77,087		4%
Manufactured housing aftermarket		13,110		13,073		0%
Adjacent industries		26,696		20,363		31%
Total MH Segment net sales	$	120,198	$	110,523		9%

According to the IBTS, industry-wide wholesale shipments for the years ended December 31, were:

	2012		2011		Change
Total homes produced		54,900		51,600		6%
Total floors produced		84,800		78,500		8%

Despite acquisitions completed in 2011 adding approximately $2 million in net sales to manufactured housing OEMs in 2012, the Company’s net sales growth in components for new manufactured homes was less than the increase in industry-wide wholesale shipments. This was primarily because of customer mix, as the Company’s content per unit varies between customers, and 2011 industry-wide wholesale shipments included approximately 2,000 homes purchased by FEMA which did not recur in 2012. FEMA homes typically contain more of the Company’s products.

Net sales to adjacent industries increased due to market share gains of $5 million and sales from acquisitions completed in 2011 which added $2 million in net sales during 2012.

The trend in the Company’s average product content per manufactured home produced is an indicator of the Company’s overall market share of components for new manufactured homes. Manufactured homes contain one or more “floors” or sections which can be joined to make larger homes. The larger homes typically contain more of the Company’s products. The Company’s average product content per manufactured home produced by the industry and total manufactured home floors produced by the industry, calculated based upon the Company’s net sales of components to manufactured housing OEMs for newly produced manufactured homes for the years ended December 31, divided by the number of manufactured homes and manufactured home floors produced by the industry, respectively, for the same period, was:

Content per:	2012		2011		Change
Home produced	$	1,465	$	1,493		(2%)
Floor produced	$	948	$	982		(3%)

The Company’s average product content per manufactured home excludes sales of replacement parts to the aftermarket and sales to adjacent industries. Content per manufactured home and content per floor are impacted by market share changes, acquisitions and new product introductions, and changes in selling prices for the Company’s products, as well as changes in the types of floors produced industry-wide. In the first quarter of 2012, the Company refined the calculation of content per unit to better identify aftermarket sales, as well as sales to adjacent industries. There was no change in total reported net sales for the MH Segment, and all prior periods have also been refined for consistency.

33

Operating profit of the MH Segment was $12.4 million in 2012, an increase of $1.6 million compared to 2011, primarily due to the $10 million increase in net sales. This increase in MH Segment operating profit was 16 percent of the increase in net sales, consistent with the Company’s expected 15 to 20 percent incremental margin for established products.

Executive Succession and Severance

On May 10, 2013, Fredric M. Zinn retired as President and Chief Executive Officer of Drew. Jason D. Lippert, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Lippert Components, succeeded Mr. Zinn as Chief Executive Officer of Drew. Scott T. Mereness, President of Lippert Components, succeeded Mr. Zinn as President of Drew. In June 2013, the Company also relocated its corporate headquarters from White Plains, New York to Elkhart County, Indiana, the location of the corporate headquarters of Lippert Components.

In connection with the Company’s executive succession and corporate relocation, the Company recorded pre-tax charges of $1.5 million in the fourth quarter of 2012 and $1.8 million in the first six months of 2013, related to contractual obligations for severance and the acceleration of equity awards held by certain employees whose employment terminated as a result of the executive succession and relocation to Indiana. No charges were recorded in the last six months of 2013, and no other related charges are expected. The liability for executive succession and severance obligations will be paid through 2015. During the third quarter of 2013, the transition and corporate office relocation were completed. As a result, the Company expects to save an estimated $2 million annually in general and administrative costs.

Provision for Income Taxes

The effective income tax rate for 2013 was 35.7 percent, slightly higher than the 35.4 percent in 2012. Both 2013 and 2012 benefited from federal and state tax credits, as well as the reversal of federal and state tax reserves, due to the closure of federal and state tax years, with a larger benefit in 2012. The Company estimates the 2014 effective income tax rate to be approximately 37 percent.

The effective income tax rate for 2012 was 35.4 percent, lower than the 37.7 percent in 2011 due to the reversal of federal and state tax reserves, due to the closure of federal and state tax years, as well as higher federal and state income tax credits.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows reflect the following for the years ended December 31:

(In thousands)	2013			2012			2011
Net cash flows provided by operating activities	$	82,677		$	72,689		$	36,831
Net cash flows used for investing activities		(36,055	)		(28,198	)		(69,124	)
Net cash flows provided by (used for) financing activities		9,719			(41,136	)		(3	)
Net increase (decrease) in cash	$	56,341		$	3,355		$	(32,296	)

34

Cash Flows from Operations

Net cash flows from operating activities in 2013 were $10.0 million higher than in 2012, primarily due to:

● A $12.8 million increase in net income in 2013 compared to 2012.

● A $8.4 million smaller increase in prepaid expenses and other assets in 2013 compared to 2012. The increase of $2.3 million in 2013 was primarily due to an increase in investments associated with the Company’s deferred compensation plan. The increase of $10.7 million in 2012 was primarily due to a federal tax receivable at December 31, 2012 as compared to a federal tax payable at December 31, 2011, as well as an increase in short-term deposits at December 31, 2012 related primarily to 2013 capital expenditures.

● A $4.5 million increase in stock-based compensation in 2013 compared to 2012.

Partially offset by:

● A $11.3 million smaller increase in accounts payable and accrued expenses and other liabilities in 2013 compared to 2012, primarily due to the timing of payments.

● A $9.0 million increase in accounts receivable in 2013, compared to a $0.8 million decrease in 2012. This was primarily due to 24 percent higher net sales in the month of December 2013 as compared to December 2012, as well as an increase in days sales outstanding to 16 at December 31, 2013, compared to 14 at December 31, 2012.

Over the long term, based on the Company’s historical collection and payment patterns, as well as inventory turnover, the Company expects working capital to increase or decrease equivalent to approximately 10 percent to 12 percent of the increase or decrease, respectively, in net sales. However, there are many factors that can impact this relationship, especially in the short term. Inventory turnover for 2013 was 7.9 turns, compared to 7.8 turns in 2012.

During the first few months of 2014, the Company expects to use $20 million to $30 million of cash to fund seasonal working capital growth, which is typical. The 2014 working capital needs are expected to be funded from available cash plus periodic borrowings under the Company’s amended line of credit.

Depreciation and amortization was $27.5 million in 2013, and is expected to aggregate $27 million to $29 million in 2014. Non-cash stock-based compensation in 2013 was $10.8 million, including $0.1 million of deferred stock units issued to certain executive officers in lieu of cash for a portion of their 2012 incentive compensation in accordance with their compensation arrangements. Non-cash stock-based compensation is expected to be approximately $11 million to $13 million in 2014.

Net cash flows from operating activities in 2012 were $35.9 million higher than in 2011, primarily due to:

● A $15.6 million increase in accrued expenses and other liabilities primarily due to the increase in sales, production and earnings.

● A $10.0 million smaller increase in inventories in 2012 as compared to 2011. The smaller increase in inventories in 2012 was primarily due to the concerted effort of management to improve inventory turns on a sustainable basis. In 2011, the Company experienced a more typical increase in inventory, as well as an increase in raw material costs. Inventory turnover for 2012 improved to 7.8 turns from 6.3 turns for 2011.

● A $7.3 million increase in net income in 2012 as compared to 2011.

● A $0.8 million decrease in accounts receivable in 2012, compared to a $5.0 million increase in 2011, despite 15 percent higher net sales in the month of December 2012 as compared to December 2011. This was primarily due to a decline in days sales outstanding to 14 at December 31, 2012, compared to 17 at December 31, 2011.

● A $5.1 million increase in depreciation and amortization primarily due to the acquisitions completed in the latter half of 2011 and capital expenditures.

Partially offset by:

● An $8.9 million larger increase in prepaid expenses and other assets, primarily due to a federal tax receivable at December 31, 2012 as compared to a federal tax payable at December 31, 2011, as well as an increase in short-term deposits at December 31, 2012 related primarily to 2013 capital expenditures.

35

Cash Flows from Investing Activities

Cash flows used for investing activities in 2013 included capital expenditures of $32.6 million. In 2013, in order to better serve its customers and meet the increased demand for its products, the Company continued to invest in capacity expansion, automation and production improvement, as well as cost reduction initiatives. The Company’s growth capital expenditures for 2013 included a new glass tempering line, metal fabrication equipment and new ERP software, in addition to routine replacement capital expenditures.

The Company’s capital expenditures are primarily for replacement and growth. Over the long term, based on the Company’s historical capital expenditures, the replacement portion has averaged approximately 1.5 percent to 2.0 percent of net sales, while the growth portion has averaged approximately 10 percent to 12 percent of the annual increase in net sales. However, there are many factors that can impact this relationship, such as new initiatives by the Company, especially in the short term.

The Company estimates that capital expenditures will be $32 million to $36 million in 2014, including $15 million to $20 million of “replacement’ capital expenditures and $12 million to $16 million of “growth’ capital expenditures. Additional capital expenditures may be required in 2014 depending on the extent of the sales growth and other initiatives by the Company.

On February 27, 2014, the Company acquired Innovative Design Solutions, Inc. (“IDS”), a designer, developer and manufacturer of electronic systems encompassing a wide variety of RV applications. IDS also manufactures electronic systems for automotive, medical and industrial applications. IDS had annual sales of approximately $19 million in 2013, of which $13 million were to the Company. The purchase price was $36.0 million, of which $34.2 million was paid at closing from available cash and borrowings under the Company’s $75 million line of credit, with the balance to be paid out annually over the subsequent three years, plus contingent consideration based on future sales. The acquisition of IDS provides the Company with further access to unique and innovative electronic products for the RV industry, as well as adjacent industries.

On December 13, 2013, the Company acquired the business and certain assets of Fortress Technologies, LLC (“Fortress”). Fortress is a manufacturer of specialized RV chassis. The acquired business had annualized sales of approximately $3 million. The purchase price was $3.3 million paid at closing.

On June 24, 2013, the Company acquired the business and certain assets of Midstates Tool & Die and Engineering, Inc. (“Midstates”). Midstates is a manufacturer of tools and dies, as well as automation equipment. The acquired business had annualized sales of approximately $2 million. The purchase price was $1.5 million paid at closing.

The 2013 capital expenditures and acquisitions were funded from available cash plus periodic borrowings under the Company’s previous $50 million line of credit. The 2014 capital expenditures and acquisitions are expected to be funded from available cash plus periodic borrowings under the Company’s amended $75 million line of credit.

36

Cash flows used for investing activities in 2012 included capital expenditures of $32.0 million. In 2012, in order to better serve its customers and meet the increased demand for its products, the Company invested in both capacity expansion and cost reduction initiatives. The Company’s capital expenditures for 2012 included the purchase of a larger facility to consolidate all of its furniture operations, the completion of the aluminum extrusion operation, and metal fabrication equipment, in addition to routine replacement capital expenditures.

On February 21, 2012, the Company acquired the business and certain assets of the United States RV entry door operation of Euramax International, Inc. The acquired business had annualized sales of approximately $6 million. The purchase price was $1.7 million, of which $1.2 million was paid at closing, with the balance to be paid over the following three years.

During 2012, the Company received $5.4 million from sales of fixed assets, primarily from the sale of two vacant owned facilities.

Cash Flows from Financing Activities

Cash flows provided by financing activities in 2013 of $9.7 million were primarily comprised of the following:

● $15.2 million in cash and the related tax benefits from the exercise of stock-based compensation.

Partially offset by:

● $5.5 million in payments for contingent consideration related to acquisitions. In connection with several business acquisitions, if certain sales targets for the acquired products are achieved, the Company would pay additional cash consideration. The Company has recorded a $7.4 million liability for the aggregate fair value of these expected contingent consideration liabilities at December 31, 2013. The Company expects to pay $3.7 million in 2014 related to these contingent consideration liabilities. For further information see Note 11 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

At December 31, 2013 the Company had no outstanding debt and $66.3 million of cash. However, due to the seasonal increase in working capital in 2013 the Company borrowed periodically under its line of credit, with such borrowings reaching a high of $21.2 million. Due to the seasonal nature of the business, the Company expects to borrow periodically during 2014.

On January 6, 2014, a special dividend of $2.00 per share of the Company’s Common Stock, representing an aggregate of $46.7 million, was paid to stockholders of record as of December 20, 2013.

Cash flows provided by financing activities in 2012 of $41.1 million were primarily comprised of the following:

● A special dividend of $2.00 per share of the Company’s Common Stock, representing an aggregate of $45.0 million.

● $4.3 million in payments for contingent consideration related to acquisitions.

Partially offset by:

● $8.2 million in cash and the related tax benefits from the exercise of stock-based compensation.

37

The Company has a $50.0 million line of credit (the “Credit Agreement”) with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. and Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. (collectively, the “Lenders”). The maximum borrowings under the Company’s line of credit can be increased by $20.0 million upon approval of the Lenders. Interest on borrowings under the line of credit is designated from time to time by the Company as either (i) the Prime Rate, but not less than 2.5 percent, plus additional interest up to 0.8 percent (0 percent at December 31, 2013 and 2012), or (ii) LIBOR plus additional interest ranging from 2.0 percent to 2.8 percent (2.0 percent at December 31, 2013 and 2012) depending on the Company’s performance and financial condition. The Credit Agreement, which was scheduled to expire on January 1, 2016, was amended and extended on February 24, 2014, and now expires on January 1, 2019. In connection with this amendment, the line of credit was increased to $75.0 million. At December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company had $2.2 million and $3.0 million, respectively in outstanding letters of credit under the line of credit. Availability under the Company’s line of credit was $47.8 million at December 31, 2013.

The Company also has a $150.0 million “shelf-loan” facility with Prudential Investment Management, Inc. and its affiliates (“Prudential”). The facility provides for Prudential to consider purchasing, at the Company’s request, in one or a series of transactions, Senior Promissory Notes of the Company in the aggregate principal amount of up to $150.0 million, to mature no more than twelve years after the date of original issue of each Senior Promissory Note. Prudential has no obligation to purchase the Senior Promissory Notes. Interest payable on the Senior Promissory Notes will be at rates determined by Prudential within five business days after the Company issues a request to Prudential. At December 31, 2013 and 2012, there were no Senior Promissory Notes outstanding. This facility, which was scheduled to expire on February 24, 2014, was amended and extended on February 24, 2014, and now expires on February 24, 2017.

Both the line of credit pursuant to the Credit Agreement and the “shelf-loan” facility are subject to a maximum leverage ratio covenant which limits the amount of consolidated outstanding indebtedness to 2.5 times the trailing twelve-month EBITDA, as defined. This limitation did not impact the Company’s borrowing availability at December 31, 2013. The remaining availability under these facilities was $197.8 million at December 31, 2013. The Company believes the availability under the amended line of credit and “shelf-loan” facility, together with the $66.3 million in cash at December 31, 2013, is more than adequate to finance the Company’s anticipated cash requirements for 2014.

Pursuant to the Credit Agreement and “shelf-loan” facility, at December 31, 2013 and 2012 the Company was required to maintain minimum interest and fixed charge coverages, and to meet certain other financial requirements. At December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company was in compliance with all such requirements, and expects to remain in compliance during 2014.

Borrowings under both the line of credit and the “shelf-loan” facility are secured on a pari-passu basis by first priority liens on the capital stock or other equity interests of each of the Company’s direct and indirect subsidiaries.

In 2007, the Board of Directors authorized the Company to repurchase up to 1 million shares of the Company’s Common Stock from time to time in the open market, in privately negotiated transactions, or in block trades. Of this authorization, 535,135 shares were repurchased prior to 2013 at an average price of $18.64 per share, or $10.0 million. The number of shares ultimately repurchased, and the timing of the purchases, will depend upon market conditions, share price and other factors.

(a) In January 2014, the Company entered into a nine year lease with aggregate minimum lease payments of $6.1 million, to consolidate manufacturing operations for efficiency improvements and expand capacity for its furniture and mattress operations. Such amounts are not included in the above amounts.

(b) Includes amounts payable under employment contracts and arrangements, and retirement and severance agreements.

(c) Includes amounts payable under deferred compensation arrangements. The Other column represents the liability for deferred compensation for employees that have elected to receive payment upon separation from service from the Company.

(d) Comprised of estimated future contingent consideration payments for which a liability has been recorded in connection with business acquisitions over the past few years. Excluded from these amounts, because the future payments are not ascertainable, is a license agreement that provides for the Company to pay a royalty of 1 percent of sales of certain slide-out systems, the remaining aggregate amount of which cannot exceed $3.3 million. The Company will pay $0.3 million in 2014 under this license agreement for sales of these slide-out systems in 2013, which is included in these amounts.

(e) Primarily comprised of purchase orders issued in the normal course of business. Also included are several longer term purchase commitments, for which the Company has estimated the expected future obligation based on current prices and usage.

(f) Represents unrecognized tax benefits, as well as related interest and penalties.

These commitments are described more fully in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

The Company is in compliance with the corporate governance requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and the New York Stock Exchange. The Company’s governance documents and committee charters and key practices have been posted to the Company’s website (www.drewindustries.com) and are updated periodically. The website also contains, or provides direct links to, all SEC filings, press releases and investor presentations. The Company has also established a Whistleblower Policy, which includes a toll-free hotline (877-373-9123) to report complaints about the Company’s accounting, internal controls, auditing matters or other concerns. The whistleblower policy and procedure for complaints can be found on the Company’s website (www.drewindustries.com).

CONTINGENCIES

Additional information required by this item is included under Item 3 of Part I of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The Company's Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America which requires certain estimates and assumptions be made that affect the amounts and disclosures reported in those financial statements and the related accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from these estimates and assumptions. The following critical accounting policies, some of which are impacted significantly by judgments, assumptions and estimates, affect the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements. Management has discussed the development and selection of its critical accounting policies with the Audit Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors and the Audit Committee has reviewed the disclosure presented below relating to the critical accounting policies.

Inventories

Inventories (finished goods, work in process and raw materials) are stated at the lower of cost, determined on a first-in, first-out basis, or market. Cost is determined based solely on those charges incurred in the acquisition and production of the related inventory (i.e. material, labor and manufacturing overhead costs). The Company estimates an inventory reserve for excess quantities and obsolete items based on specific identification and historical write-offs, taking into account future demand and market conditions. To the extent actual demand or market conditions in the future differ from original estimates, adjustments to recorded inventory reserves may be required.

Self-Insurance

The Company is self-insured for certain health and workers' compensation benefits up to certain stop-loss limits. Such costs are accrued based on known claims and an estimate of incurred, but not reported (“IBNR”) claims. IBNR claims are estimated using historical lag information and other data provided by third-party claims administrators. This estimation process is subjective, and to the extent actual results differ from original estimates, adjustments to recorded accruals may be required.

Warranty

The Company provides warranty terms based upon the type of product sold. The Company estimates the warranty accrual based upon various factors, including (i) historical warranty costs, (ii) current trends, (iii) product mix, and (iv) sales. The accounting for warranty accruals requires the Company to make assumptions and judgments, and to the extent actual results differ from original estimates, adjustments to recorded accruals may be required.

Income Taxes

The Company's tax provision is based on pre-tax income, statutory tax rates, federal and state tax credits, and tax planning strategies. Significant management judgment is required in determining the tax provision and in evaluating the Company's tax position. The Company establishes additional provisions for income taxes when, despite the belief the tax positions are fully supportable, there remain certain tax positions that are likely to be challenged and may or may not be sustained on review by tax authorities. The Company adjusts these tax accruals in light of changing facts and circumstances. The effective tax rate in a given financial statement period may be materially impacted by changes in the expected outcome of tax audits.

40

The Company's accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets also include deferred tax assets resulting from deductible temporary differences, which are expected to reduce future taxable income. These assets are based on management's estimate of realizability, which is reassessed each quarter based upon the Company's forecast of future taxable income. Failure to achieve forecasted taxable income could affect the ultimate realization of certain deferred tax assets, and may result in the recognition of a valuation reserve. For additional information, see Note 10 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets, including Other Intangible Assets

The Company periodically evaluates whether events or circumstances have occurred that indicate long-lived assets may not be recoverable or the remaining useful life may warrant revision. When such events or circumstances occur, the Company assesses the recoverability of long-lived assets by determining whether the carrying value will be recovered through the expected undiscounted future cash flows resulting from the use of the asset. In the event the sum of the expected undiscounted future cash flows is less than the carrying value of the asset, an impairment loss equal to the excess of the asset's carrying value over its fair value would be recorded. The long-term nature of these assets requires the estimation of their cash inflows and outflows several years into the future. Actual results and events could differ significantly from management estimates.

Impairment of Goodwill

Goodwill is evaluated for impairment at the reporting unit level on an annual basis and between annual tests whenever events or circumstances indicate the carrying value of a reporting unit may exceed its fair value. The Company conducts its required annual impairment test as of November 30th each fiscal year. The impairment test consists of an assessment of qualitative factors, including general economic and industry conditions, market share and input costs. If such qualitative factors do not support that the fair value of the reporting unit is greater than the carrying amount, the Company then uses a discounted cash flow model to estimate the fair value of the reporting unit. This model requires the use of long-term forecasts and assumptions regarding industry-specific economic conditions outside the control of the Company. Actual results and events could differ significantly from management estimates.

Contingent Consideration Payments

In connection with several acquisitions, in addition to the cash paid at closing, additional payments could be required depending upon the level of sales generated from certain of the acquired products. The fair value of the aggregate estimated contingent consideration payments has been recorded as a liability in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Each quarter, the Company is required to re-evaluate the fair value of the liability for the estimated contingent consideration payments for such acquisitions. The fair value of the contingent consideration payments is estimated using a discounted cash flow model. This model involves the use of estimates and significant judgments that are based on a number of factors including sales of certain products, future business plans, economic projections, weighted average cost of capital, and market data. Actual results may differ from forecasted results.

Other Estimates

The Company makes a number of other estimates and judgments in the ordinary course of business including, but not limited to, those related to product returns, sales and purchase rebates, accounts receivable, lease terminations, asset retirement obligations, long-lived assets, executive succession, post-retirement benefits, stock-based compensation, segment allocations, environmental liabilities, contingencies and litigation. Establishing reserves for these matters requires management's estimate and judgment with regard to risk and ultimate liability or realization. As a result, these estimates are based on management's current understanding of the underlying facts and circumstances and may also be developed in conjunction with outside advisors, as appropriate. Because of uncertainties related to the ultimate outcome of these issues or the possibilities of changes in the underlying facts and circumstances, actual results and events could differ significantly from management estimates.

INFLATION

The prices of key raw materials, consisting primarily of steel and aluminum, and components used by the Company which are made from these raw materials, are influenced by demand and other factors specific to these commodities, rather than being directly affected by inflationary pressures. Prices of these commodities have historically been volatile, and over the past few months prices have continued to fluctuate. The Company did not experience significant increases in its labor costs in 2013 related to inflation.

41

Item 7A.     QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.

The Company has historically been exposed to changes in interest rates primarily as a result of its financing activities. At December 31, 2013, the Company had no outstanding borrowings.

The Company is also exposed to changes in the prices of raw materials, specifically steel and aluminum. The Company has, from time to time, entered into derivative instruments for the purpose of managing a portion of the exposures associated with fluctuations in aluminum prices. While these derivative instruments are subject to fluctuations in value, these fluctuations are generally offset by the changes in fair value of the underlying exposures. At December 31, 2013, the Company had no derivative instruments outstanding.

The Company has historically been able to obtain sales price increases to offset the majority of raw material cost increases. However, there can be no assurance future cost increases, if any, can be partially or fully passed on to customers, or the timing of such sales price increases will match raw material cost increases.

Additional information required by this item is included under the caption “Inflation” in the Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations section of this Report.

Item 8.     FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTARY DATA.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

The Board of Directors and Stockholders

Drew Industries Incorporated:

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Drew Industries Incorporated and subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, and the related consolidated statements of income, stockholders' equity, and cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2013. We also have audited the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2013, based on criteria established in Internal Control – Integrated Framework (1992) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). The Company’s management is responsible for these consolidated financial statements, for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting, and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying “Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting.” Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements and an opinion on the Company's internal control over financial reporting based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement and whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audits of the consolidated financial statements included examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. Our audit of internal control over financial reporting included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audits also included performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinions.

A company's internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company's internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company's assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Drew Industries Incorporated and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2013, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Also in our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2013, based on criteria established in Internal Control – Integrated Framework (1992) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO).

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation

The Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of Drew Industries Incorporated and its wholly-owned subsidiaries (collectively, “Drew” or the “Company”). Drew has no unconsolidated subsidiaries. Drew operates through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Lippert Components, Inc. and its subsidiaries (collectively, “Lippert Components”). Effective December 2013, the Company completed the tax-free reorganization of Kinro, Inc. and its subsidiaries with and into Lippert Components. Drew, through Lippert Components, manufactures a broad array of components for recreational vehicles (“RVs”) and manufactured homes, and to a lesser extent manufactures components for modular housing, truck caps and buses, as well as for trailers used to haul boats, livestock, equipment and other cargo. At December 31, 2013, the Company operated 31 manufacturing facilities in 11 states.

Because of fluctuations in dealer inventories, and the impact of international, national and regional economic conditions and consumer confidence on retail sales of RVs and other products for which we sell our components, current and future seasonal industry trends may be different than in prior years.

The Company is not aware of any significant events, except as disclosed in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, which occurred subsequent to the balance sheet date but prior to the filing of this report that would have a material impact on the Consolidated Financial Statements.

All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. Certain prior year balances have been reclassified to conform to current year presentation.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less at the time of purchase to be cash equivalents.

Accounts Receivable

Accounts receivable are stated at historical carrying value, net of write-offs and allowances. The Company establishes allowances based upon historical experience and any specific customer collection issues identified by the Company. Uncollectible accounts receivable are written off when a settlement is reached or when the Company has determined the balance will not be collected.

Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (using the first-in, first-out method) or market. Cost includes material, labor and overhead; market is replacement cost or realizable value after allowance for costs of distribution.

Fixed Assets

Fixed assets which are owned are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation, and are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the properties and equipment. Leasehold improvements and leased equipment are amortized over the shorter of the lives of the leases or the underlying assets. Maintenance and repair costs that do not improve service potential or extend economic life are expensed as incurred; significant improvements are capitalized.

48

Income Taxes

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the temporary differences between the financial reporting and tax basis of assets and liabilities, applying enacted statutory tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse.

The Company accounts for uncertainty in tax positions by recognizing in its financial statements the impact of a tax position only if that position is more likely than not of being sustained on audit, based on the technical merits of the position. Further, the Company assesses the tax benefits of the tax positions in its financial statements based on experience with similar tax positions, information obtained during the examination process and the advice of experts. The Company recognizes previously unrecognized tax benefits upon the earlier of the expiration of the period to assess tax in the applicable taxing jurisdiction or when the matter is constructively settled and upon changes in statutes or regulations and new case law or rulings.

The Company classifies interest and penalties related to income taxes as income tax expense in its Consolidated Financial Statements.

Goodwill

Goodwill represents the excess of the total consideration given in an acquisition of a business over the fair value of the net tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired. Goodwill is not amortized, but instead is tested at the reporting unit level for impairment annually in November, or more frequently if certain circumstances indicate a possible impairment may exist. In 2013, the Company assessed qualitative factors of its reporting units to determine whether it was more likely than not the fair value of the reporting unit was less than its carrying amount, including goodwill. The qualitative impairment test consists of an assessment of qualitative factors, including general economic and industry conditions, market share and input costs. In 2012 and 2011, the impairment tests were based on fair value, determined using discounted cash flows, appraised values or management’s estimates.

Other Intangible Assets

Intangible assets with estimable useful lives are amortized over their respective estimated useful lives to their estimated residual values, and reviewed for impairment. The amortization of other intangible assets is done using a method, straight-line or accelerated, which best reflects the pattern in which the estimated future economic benefits of the asset will be consumed.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

Long-lived assets, other than goodwill, are tested for impairment when changes in circumstances indicate their carrying value may not be recoverable. A determination of impairment, if any, is made based on the undiscounted value of estimated future cash flows, salvage value or expected net sales proceeds, depending on the circumstances. Impairment is measured as the excess of the carrying value over the estimated fair value of such assets.

Asset Retirement Obligations

Asset retirement obligations are legal obligations associated with the retirement of long-lived assets. The Company records asset retirement obligations on certain of its owned and leased facilities and leased machinery and equipment. These liabilities are initially recorded at fair value and are adjusted for changes resulting from revisions to the timing or the amount of the original estimate.

49

Environmental Liabilities

Accruals for environmental matters are recorded when it is probable a liability has been incurred and the amount of the liability can be reasonably estimated, based upon current law and existing technologies. These amounts, which are not discounted and are exclusive of claims against potentially responsible third parties, are adjusted periodically as assessment and remediation efforts progress or additional technical or legal information becomes available. Environmental exposures are difficult to assess for numerous reasons, including the identification of new sites, developments at sites resulting from investigatory studies and remedial activities, advances in technology, changes in environmental laws and regulations and their application, the scarcity of reliable data pertaining to identified sites, the difficulty in assessing the involvement and financial capability of other potentially responsible parties and the Company’s ability to obtain contributions from other parties, and the lengthy time periods over which site remediation occurs. It is possible some of these matters (the outcomes of which are subject to various uncertainties) may be resolved unfavorably against the Company, and could materially affect operating results when resolved in future periods.

Financial Instruments

The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximated their fair value due to the short-term nature of these instruments.

Stock-Based Compensation

All stock-based compensation awards are expensed over their vesting period, based on fair value. For awards that have a service only vesting condition, the Company recognizes stock-based compensation expense on a straight-line basis over the requisite service periods. For awards with a performance vesting condition, which are subject to certain pre-established performance targets, the Company recognizes stock-based compensation expense on a graded-vesting basis to the extent it is probable the performance targets will be met. The fair value for stock options is determined using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model, while the fair values of deferred stock units and restricted stock are based on the market price of the Company’s Common Stock, all on the date the stock-based awards are granted.

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue when products are shipped and the customer takes ownership and assumes risk of loss, collectability is reasonably assured, and the sales price is fixed or determinable. Sales taxes collected from customers and remitted to governmental authorities, which are not significant, are accounted for on a net basis and therefore are excluded from net sales in the Consolidated Statements of Income.

Shipping and Handling Costs

The Company records shipping and handling costs within selling, general and administrative expenses. Such costs aggregated $36.4 million, $32.7 million and $24.6 million in the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

Legal Costs

The Company expenses all legal costs associated with litigation as incurred. Legal expenses are included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the Consolidated Statements of Income.

50

Fair Value Measurements

Fair value is determined using a hierarchy that has three levels based on the reliability of the inputs used to determine fair value. Level 1 refers to fair values determined based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets. Level 2 refers to fair values estimated using significant other observable inputs, and Level 3 includes fair values estimated using significant unobservable inputs.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires the Company to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, net sales and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an ongoing basis, the Company evaluates its estimates, including, but not limited to, those related to product returns, sales and purchase rebates, accounts receivable, inventories, goodwill and other intangible assets, income taxes, warranty obligations, self-insurance obligations, lease terminations, asset retirement obligations, long-lived assets, executive succession, post-retirement benefits, stock-based compensation, segment allocations, contingent consideration, environmental liabilities, contingencies and litigation. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience, other available information and various other assumptions believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other resources. Actual results and events could differ significantly from management estimates.

2. SEGMENT REPORTING

The Company has two reportable segments; the recreational vehicle products segment (the “RV Segment”) and the manufactured housing products segment (the “MH Segment”). Intersegment sales are insignificant.

The RV Segment, which accounted for 88 percent, 87 percent and 84 percent of consolidated net sales for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively, manufactures a variety of products used primarily in the production of RVs, including:

●	Steel chassis for towable RVs	●	Aluminum windows and screens
●	Axles and suspension solutions for towable RVs	●	Chassis components
●	Slide-out mechanisms and solutions	●	Furniture and mattresses
●	Thermoformed bath, kitchen and other products	●	Entry, baggage, patio and ramp doors
●	Entry steps	●	Awnings
●	Manual, electric and hydraulic stabilizer and leveling systems	●	Other accessories

The Company also supplies certain of these products to the RV aftermarket. In addition, the Company manufactures components for adjacent industries, including buses, trailers used to haul boats, livestock, equipment and other cargo, and truck caps. Approximately 81 percent of the Company’s RV Segment net sales in 2013 were of products to original equipment manufacturers (“OEMs”) of travel trailer and fifth-wheel RVs.

51

The MH Segment, which accounted for 12 percent, 13 percent and 16 percent of consolidated net sales for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively, manufactures a variety of products used in the production of manufactured homes and to a lesser extent, modular housing and mobile office units, including:

●	Vinyl and aluminum windows and screens	●	Steel chassis
●	Thermoformed bath and kitchen products	●	Steel chassis parts
●	Steel and fiberglass entry doors	●	Axles
●	Aluminum and vinyl patio doors

The Company also supplies certain of these products to the manufactured housing aftermarket. Certain of the Company’s MH Segment customers manufacture both manufactured homes and modular homes, and certain of the products manufactured by the Company are suitable for both types of homes. As a result, the Company is not always able to determine in which type of home its products are installed.

Decisions concerning the allocation of the Company's resources are made by the Company's key executives, with oversight by the Board of Directors. This group evaluates the performance of each segment based upon segment operating profit or loss, defined as income or loss before interest, executive succession and income taxes. Decisions concerning the allocation of resources are also based on each segment’s utilization of assets. Management of debt is a corporate function. The accounting policies of the RV and MH Segments are the same as those described in Note 1 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

Effective with the second quarter of 2013, in connection with the management succession and relocation of the corporate office from New York to Indiana, corporate expenses, accretion related to contingent consideration and other non-segment items, which were previously reported on separate lines, have been included as part of segment operating profit. Corporate expenses are allocated between the segments based upon net sales. Accretion related to contingent consideration and other non-segment items are included in the segment to which they relate. The segment disclosures from prior years have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.

Defined Contribution Plan

The Company maintains a discretionary defined contribution 401(k) profit sharing plan covering all eligible employees. The Company contributed $1.4 million, $1.1 million and $1.0 million to this plan during the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

Deferred Compensation Plan

The Company has an Executive Non-Qualified Deferred Compensation Plan (the “Plan”). Pursuant to the Plan, certain management employees are eligible to defer all or a portion of their regular salary and incentive compensation. Participants deferred $1.7 million, $1.9 million and $2.0 million during the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively. The amounts deferred under this Plan are credited with earnings or losses based upon changes in values of the notional investments elected by the Plan participants. Each Plan participant is fully vested in their deferred compensation and earnings credited to his or her account as all contributions to the Plan are made by the participant. The Company is responsible for certain costs of Plan administration, which are not significant, and will not make any contributions to the Plan. Pursuant to the Plan, payments to the Plan participants are made from the general unrestricted assets of the Company, and the Company’s obligations pursuant to the Plan are unfunded and unsecured. Participants withdrew $0.2 million and $0.6 million from the Plan during the years ended December 31, 2013, and 2011, respectively. There were no participant withdrawals in 2012. At December 31, 2013 and 2012, deferred compensation of $9.4 million and $7.0 million, respectively, was recorded in other long-term liabilities, and at December 31, 2013, deferred compensation of $0.2 million was recorded in accrued expenses and other current liabilities.

9. LONG-TERM INDEBTEDNESS

The Company had no debt outstanding at December 31, 2013 and 2012.

The Company has a $50.0 million line of credit (the “Credit Agreement”) with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. and Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. (collectively, the “Lenders”). The maximum borrowings under the Company’s line of credit can be increased by $20.0 million upon approval of the Lenders. Interest on borrowings under the line of credit is designated from time to time by the Company as either (i) the Prime Rate, but not less than 2.5 percent, plus additional interest up to 0.8 percent (0 percent at December 31, 2013 and 2012), or (ii) LIBOR plus additional interest ranging from 2.0 percent to 2.8 percent (2.0 percent at December 31, 2013 and 2012) depending on the Company’s performance and financial condition. The Credit Agreement, which was scheduled to expire on January 1, 2016, was amended and extended on February 24, 2014, and now expires on January 1, 2019. In connection with this amendment, the line of credit was increased to $75.0 million. At December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company had $2.2 million and $3.0 million, respectively in outstanding letters of credit under the line of credit. Availability under the Company’s line of credit was $47.8 million at December 31, 2013.

63

The Company also has a $150.0 million “shelf-loan” facility with Prudential Investment Management, Inc. and its affiliates (“Prudential”). The facility provides for Prudential to consider purchasing, at the Company’s request, in one or a series of transactions, Senior Promissory Notes of the Company in the aggregate principal amount of up to $150.0 million, to mature no more than twelve years after the date of original issue of each Senior Promissory Note. Prudential has no obligation to purchase the Senior Promissory Notes. Interest payable on the Senior Promissory Notes will be at rates determined by Prudential within five business days after the Company issues a request to Prudential. At December 31, 2013 and 2012, there were no Senior Promissory Notes outstanding. This facility, which was scheduled to expire on February 24, 2014, was amended and extended on February 24, 2014, and now expires on February 24, 2017.

Both the line of credit pursuant to the Credit Agreement and the “shelf-loan” facility are subject to a maximum leverage ratio covenant which limits the amount of consolidated outstanding indebtedness to 2.5 times the trailing twelve-month EBITDA, as defined. This limitation did not impact the Company’s borrowing availability at December 31, 2013. The remaining availability under these facilities was $197.8 million at December 31, 2013. The Company believes the availability under the amended line of credit and “shelf-loan” facility, together with the $66.3 million in cash at December 31, 2013, is more than adequate to finance the Company’s anticipated cash requirements for 2014.

Pursuant to the Credit Agreement and “shelf-loan” facility, at December 31, 2013 and 2012 the Company was required to maintain minimum interest and fixed charge coverages, and to meet certain other financial requirements. At December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company was in compliance with all such requirements, and expects to remain in compliance during 2014.

Borrowings under both the line of credit and the “shelf-loan” facility are secured on a pari-passu basis by first priority liens on the capital stock or other equity interests of each of the Company’s direct and indirect subsidiaries.

Deferred tax liabilities:

Net deferred tax assets	$	24,793		$	25,066

The Company concluded it is more likely than not that the deferred tax assets at December 31, 2013 will be realized in the ordinary course of operations based on projected future taxable income and scheduling of deferred tax liabilities.

Excess tax benefits on stock-based compensation of $1.5 million, $0.3 million and $0.2 million were credited directly to stockholders' equity during the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively, relating to tax benefits which exceeded the compensation cost for stock-based compensation recognized in the Consolidated Financial Statements.

In 2011, the Company reversed $2.5 million of deferred tax assets related to the expiration of vested stock options granted in prior years. This reversal was recorded as a reduction of stockholders’ equity, against the pool of available excess tax benefits from prior exercises of stock-based compensation. At December 31, 2013, the remaining pool of excess tax benefits from prior exercises of stock-based compensation in stockholders’ equity was $11.3 million.

Unrecognized Tax Benefits

The following table reconciles the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits, at December 31:

(In thousands)	2013			2012			2011
Balance at beginning of period	$	1,701		$	2,185		$	2,213
Changes in tax positions of prior years		(29	)		(297	)		(341	)
Additions based on tax positions related to the current year		676			385			313
Payments		(126	)		-			-
Closure of tax years		(853	)		(572	)		-
Balance at end of period	$	1,369		$	1,701		$	2,185

In addition, the total amount of accrued interest and penalties related to taxes was $0.2 million, $0.4 million and $0.6 million at December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

The total amount of unrecognized tax benefits, net of federal income tax benefits, of $1.0 million, $1.2 million and $1.6 million at December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively, would, if recognized, increase the Company’s earnings, and lower the Company’s annual effective tax rate in the year of recognition.

The Company periodically undergoes examinations by the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”), as well as various state taxing authorities. The IRS and other taxing authorities may challenge certain deductions and positions reported by the Company on its income tax returns. For federal income tax purposes, the tax years 2011 and 2012 remain subject to examination. For Indiana state income tax purposes, the tax years 2010 through 2012 remain subject to examination. Approximately 80 percent of the Company’s operations are located in Indiana.

The Company has assessed its risks associated with all tax return positions, and believes its tax reserve estimates reflect its best estimate of the deductions and positions it will be able to sustain, or it may be willing to concede as part of a settlement. At this time, the Company cannot estimate the range of reasonably possible change in its tax reserve estimates in 2014. While these tax matters could materially affect operating results when resolved in future periods, it is management’s opinion that after final disposition, any monetary liability or financial impact to the Company beyond that provided for in the Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2013, would not be material to the Company’s financial position or annual results of operations.

11. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Leases

The Company's lease commitments are primarily for real estate, machinery and equipment, and vehicles. The significant real estate leases provide for renewal options and require the Company to pay for property taxes and all other costs associated with the leased property.

66

Future minimum lease payments under operating leases at December 31, 2013 are as follows (in thousands):

2014	$	3,496
2015		2,518
2016		2,101
2017		1,867
2018		1,666
Thereafter		3,605
Total minimum lease payments	$	15,253

In January 2014, the Company entered into a nine year operating lease with aggregate minimum lease payments of $6.1 million to consolidate manufacturing operations for efficiency improvements and expand capacity for its furniture and mattress operations.

Rent expense for operating leases was $7.1 million, $5.6 million and $5.4 million for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

Contingent Consideration

In connection with several business acquisitions, if certain sales targets for the acquired products are achieved, the Company would pay additional cash consideration. The Company has recorded a liability for the fair value of this contingent consideration at December 31, 2013 and 2012, based on the present value of the expected future cash flows using a market participant’s weighted average cost of capital of 15.5 percent and 14.9 percent, respectively.

The following table summarizes the contingent consideration liability as of December 31, 2013:

Acquisition (In thousands)	Estimated Remaining Payments			Fair Value of Estimated Remaining Payments
Schwintek products	$	5,188	(a)	$	3,871
Level-Up® six-point leveling system		4,033	(b)		3,327
Other acquired products		240	(c)		216
Total	$	9,461		$	7,414

(a) The remaining contingent consideration for two of the three products expires in March 2014. Contingent consideration for the remaining product will cease five years after the product is first sold to customers. Two of the three products acquired have a combined remaining maximum contingent consideration of $4.4 million, of which the Company estimates $2.1 million will be paid. Other than expiration of the contingent consideration period, the remaining product has no maximum contingent consideration.

(b) Other than expiration of the contingent consideration period in February 2016, this product has no maximum contingent consideration.

(c) Contingent consideration expires at various dates through November 2025. Certain of these products have a combined remaining maximum contingent consideration of $3.1 million, while the remaining products have no maximum contingent consideration.

67

As required, the liability for this contingent consideration is measured at fair value quarterly, considering actual sales of the acquired products, updated sales projections, and the updated market participant weighted average cost of capital. Depending upon the weighted average costs of capital and future sales of the products which are subject to contingent consideration, the Company could record adjustments in future periods.

The following table provides a reconciliation of the Company’s contingent consideration liability for the years ended December 31:

(In thousands)	2013			2012			2011
Beginning balance	$	11,519		$	14,561		$	12,104
Acquisitions		-			67			1,090

Total long-term portion in other long-term liabilities	$	3,952		$	6,090		$	11,269

(a) Recorded in selling, general and administrative expense in the Consolidated Statements of Income.

Litigation

In the normal course of business, the Company is subject to proceedings, lawsuits and other claims. All such matters are subject to uncertainties and outcomes that are not predictable with assurance. While these matters could materially affect operating results when resolved in future periods, it is management’s opinion after final disposition, including anticipated insurance recoveries in certain cases, any monetary liability or financial impact to the Company beyond that provided in the Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2013, would not be material to the Company’s financial position or annual results of operations.

Executive Succession and Severance

On May 10, 2013, Fredric M. Zinn retired as President and Chief Executive Officer of Drew. Jason D. Lippert, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Lippert Components, succeeded Mr. Zinn as Chief Executive Officer of Drew. Scott T. Mereness, President of Lippert Components, succeeded Mr. Zinn as President of Drew. In June 2013, the Company also relocated its corporate headquarters from White Plains, New York to Elkhart County, Indiana, the location of the corporate headquarters of Lippert Components.

In connection with the Company’s executive succession and corporate relocation, the Company recorded pre-tax charges of $1.5 million in the fourth quarter of 2012 and $1.9 million in the first six months of 2013, related to contractual obligations for severance and the acceleration of equity awards held by certain employees whose employment terminated as a result of the executive succession and relocation to Indiana. No charges were recorded in the second half of 2013, and no other related charges are expected. The liability for executive succession and severance obligations will be paid through 2015. During the third quarter of 2013, the transition and corporate office relocation were completed. As a result, the Company expects to save an estimated $2 million annually in general and administrative costs.

68

Unrelated to the executive succession, the Company incurred severance and relocation costs of $0.5 million, $0.2 million, and $0.1 million during the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively, which were recorded in selling, general and administrative expenses in the Consolidated Statements of Income.

The liability for executive succession and severance obligations, which will be paid through 2015, was recorded as follows at December 31:

(In thousands)	2013		2012		2011
Other accrued expenses and current liabilities	$	1,064	$	1,778	$	449
Other long-term liabilities		315		671		1,028
Total executive succession and severance liability	$	1,379	$	2,449	$	1,477

12. STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY

Special Dividend

On January 6, 2014, a special dividend of $2.00 per share of the Company’s Common Stock, representing an aggregate of $46.7 million, was paid to stockholders of record as of December 20, 2013. On December 20, 2012, a special dividend of $2.00 per share of the Company’s Common Stock, representing an aggregate of $45.0 million, was paid to stockholders of record as of December 10, 2012. In connection with these special dividends, holders of deferred stock units, restricted stock and stock awards were credited with deferred stock units, restricted stock or stock equal to $2.00 per deferred stock unit, restricted stock or stock, representing $1.4 million in total for each special dividend. In connection with these special cash dividends, the exercise price of all outstanding stock options was reduced by $2.00 per share. These reductions in exercise price were made pursuant to the terms of the outstanding awards, resulting in no incremental stock-based compensation expense.

Stock-Based Awards

Pursuant to the Drew Industries Incorporated Equity Award and Incentive Plan, as Amended and Restated (the “Equity Plan”), which was approved by stockholders in May 2011, the Company may grant to its directors, employees, and other eligible persons Common Stock-based awards, such as stock options, restricted stock and deferred stock units. All such awards granted under the Equity Plan must be approved by the Compensation Committee of Drew’s Board of Directors (the “Committee”). The Committee determines the period for which all such awards may be exercisable, but in no event may such an award be exercisable more than 10 years from the date of grant. The number of shares available under the Equity Plan, and the exercise price of all such awards granted under the Equity Plan, are subject to adjustments by the Committee to reflect stock splits, dividends, recapitalization, mergers, or other major corporate actions. The number of shares available for granting awards was 246,368, 688,712 and 1,361,718 at December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

69

Stock-based compensation resulted in charges to operations as follows for the years ended December 31:

(In thousands)	2013		2012		2011
Stock options	$	2,325	$	2,836	$	3,218
Deferred stock units		5,425		1,888		1,264
Restricted stock		911		849		105
Stock awards		2,178		745		-
Stock-based compensation expense	$	10,839	$	6,318	$	4,587

Stock-based compensation expense is recorded in the Consolidated Statements of Income in the same line that cash compensation to those employees is recorded, primarily in selling, general and administrative expenses. In addition, for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, the Company issued deferred stock units to certain executive officers in lieu of cash for a portion of prior year incentive compensation, in accordance with their compensation arrangements, of $0.1 million, $0.2 million and $1.1 million, respectively. In February 2014, the Company issued 43,188 deferred stock units at $45.98 per share, or $2.0 million, to certain officers in lieu of cash for a portion of their 2013 salary and incentive compensation in accordance with their compensation arrangements.

The fair value of each stock option grant was estimated on the date of the grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions:

	2011
Risk-free interest rate		0.71	%
Expected volatility		55.20	%
Expected life (years)		4.1
Contractual life (years)		6.0
Dividend yield	N/A
Fair value of stock options granted	$	10.02

The fair value of deferred stock units, restricted stock and stock grants was the market price of the Company’s Common Stock on the grant date.

Stock Options

The Equity Plan provides for the grant of stock options that qualify as incentive stock options under Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code, and non-qualified stock options. The exercise price for stock options granted under the Equity Plan must be at least equal to 100 percent of the fair market value of the shares subject to such stock option on the date of grant. The exercise price may be paid in cash or in shares of the Company’s Common Stock which have been held for a minimum of six months. Historically, upon exercise of stock options, new shares have been issued instead of using treasury shares.

Outstanding stock options expire six years from the date of grant, and either vest ratably over the service period of five years for employees or, for certain executive officers, based on achievement of specified performance conditions. As a result of the Company’s executive succession and corporate relocation, the vesting of certain stock options was accelerated pursuant to contractual obligations with certain employees whose employment terminated as a result of the relocation to Indiana.

70

Transactions in stock options under the Equity Plan are summarized as follows:

	Number of Option Shares			Stock Option Exercise Price		Weighted Average Exercise Price
Outstanding at December 31, 2010		1,996,490		$	10.09 - 31.11	$	21.70

The following table summarizes information about stock options outstanding at December 31, 2013:

Exercise Price		Option Shares Outstanding		Remaining Life in Years		Option Shares Exercisable
$	6.09		70,200		0.9		70,200
$	7.53		400		0.9		400

Total Shares		723,661(a)				388,521(a)

(a)   The aggregate intrinsic value for option shares outstanding and option shares exercisable is $25.9 million and $14.6 million, respectively. The weighted average remaining term for option shares outstanding and option shares exercisable is 2.7 years and 2.2 years, respectively. Recorded in selling, general and administrative expense in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

As of December 31, 2013, there was $2.7 million of total unrecognized compensation costs related to unvested stock options, which are expected to be recognized over a weighted average remaining period of 2.4 years.

Deferred Stock Units

The Equity Plan provides for the grant or issuance of deferred stock units (“DSUs”) to directors, employees and other eligible persons. Recipients of DSUs are entitled to receive shares at the end of a specified deferral period. Holders of DSUs receive dividends granted to holders of the Common Stock, payable in additional DSUs, and are subject to the same vesting criteria as the original grant.

DSUs vest (i) ratably over the service period, (ii) at a specified future date, or (iii) for certain officers, based on achievement of specified performance conditions. As a result of the Company’s executive succession and corporate relocation, the vesting of certain deferred stock units was accelerated pursuant to contractual obligations with certain employees whose employment terminated as a result of the relocation to Indiana. In addition, DSUs are issued in lieu of cash compensation.

72

Transactions in DSUs under the Equity Plan are summarized as follows:

	Number of Shares			Stock Price
Outstanding at December 31, 2010		266,216		$	5.50 - 40.68
Issued		79,714		$	18.67 - 25.48
Granted		53,450		$	23.17
Forfeited		(2,660	)	$	20.89 - 23.49
Exercised		(27,587	)	$	6.16 - 25.06
Outstanding at December 31, 2011		369,133		$	5.50 - 40.68
Issued		23,713		$	24.53 - 32.07
Granted		282,925		$	26.54 - 30.50
Dividend equivalents		34,568		$	33.32
Exercised		(96,585	)	$	5.50 - 40.68
Outstanding at December 31, 2012		613,754		$	6.16 - 33.32
Issued		32,462		$	33.84 - 48.53
Granted		140,461		$	36.58 - 50.85
Forfeited		(4,505	)	$	30.50
Exercised		(89,211	)	$	20.20 - 30.65
Outstanding at December 31, 2013		692,961		$	6.16 - 50.85

As of December 31, 2013, there was $8.9 million of total unrecognized compensation costs related to DSUs, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted average remaining period of 2.3 years.

Restricted Stock

The Equity Plan provides for the grant of restricted stock to directors, employees and other eligible persons. The restriction period is established by the Committee, but may not be less than one year. Holders of restricted stock have all the rights of a stockholder of the Company, including the right to vote and the right to receive dividends granted to holders of the Common Stock, payable in additional shares of restricted stock, and subject to the same vesting criteria as the original grant. All shares of restricted stock are not transferable during the restriction period, which lapses one year from the date of grant. Restricted stock grants, which were all made to directors, were as follows (in thousands except share and per share amounts):

	2013		2012		2011
Granted		17,885		29,841		36,260
Stock price	$	50.89	$	30.50	$	23.17
Fair value of stock granted	$	910	$	910	$	840

As of December 31, 2013, there was $0.8 million of total unrecognized compensation costs related to restricted stock, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted average remaining period of 0.9 years.

73

Stock Awards

In accordance with the Executive Employment and Non-Competition Agreements for 2012 – 2014 with two of the Company’s named executive officers, they are entitled to receive an annual long-term award consisting of the right to earn an aggregate of 85,000 shares of Common Stock. In accordance with compensation arrangements for 2013 – 2014 with certain other officers of the Company, they are entitled to receive an annual long-term award consisting of the right to earn an aggregate of 18,500 shares of the Common Stock. All of these shares are earned during the subsequent three year period based on growth in the Company’s earnings per diluted share over that same three year period. As of December 31, 2013, there was $2.9 million of total unrecognized compensation costs related to outstanding stock awards, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted average remaining period of 1.8 years. The grant date fair value of the January 1, 2014 awards was $5.2 million.

Weighted Average Common Shares Outstanding

The following reconciliation details the denominator used in the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share for the years ended December 31:

(In thousands)	2013		2012		2011
Weighted average shares outstanding for basic earnings per share		23,321		22,558		22,267
Common stock equivalents pertaining to stock options and deferred stock units		432		270		177
Weighted average shares outstanding for diluted earnings per share		23,753		22,828		22,444

The weighted average diluted shares outstanding for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, exclude the effect of 303,240, 426,788 and 1,311,330 shares of common stock, respectively, subject to stock options and deferred stock units. Such shares were excluded from total diluted shares because they were anti-dilutive or the specified performance conditions those shares were subject to were not yet achieved.

Treasury Stock

In 2007, the Board of Directors authorized the Company to repurchase up to 1 million shares of the Company’s Common Stock from time to time in the open market, in privately negotiated transactions, or in block trades. The number of shares ultimately repurchased, and the timing of the purchases, will depend upon market conditions, share price and other factors. Treasury stock transactions under this authorization were as follows (in thousands except share and per share amounts):

	Shares		Weighted Average Price Per Share		Cost
Purchases through 2010		501,279	$	18.70	$	9,374
Purchases in 2011		33,856	$	18.44	$	626
Total purchases		535,135	$	18.64	$	10,000

13. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

Recurring

The following table presents the Company’s assets and liabilities that were measured at fair value on a recurring basis at December 31:

	2013								2012
(In thousands)	Total		Level 1		Level 2		Level 3		Total		Level 1		Level 2		Level 3
Assets
Deferred compensation	$	6,535	$	6,535	$	-	$	-	$	4,540	$	4,540	$	-	$	-

Contingent consideration	$	7,414	$	-	$	-	$	7,414	$	11,519	$	-	$	-	$	11,519
Deferred compensation		9,673		9,673		-		-		7,015		7,015		-		-
Total liabilities	$	17,087	$	9,673	$	-	$	7,414	$	18,534	$	7,015	$	-	$	11,519

Deferred Compensation

The Company has an Executive Non-Qualified Deferred Compensation Plan (the “Plan”). The amounts deferred under the Plan are credited with earnings or losses based upon changes in values of the notional investments elected by the Plan participants. The Company invests 65 percent of the amounts deferred by the Plan participants in life insurance contracts, matching the investments elected by the Plan participants. Deferred compensation assets and liabilities were valued using a market approach based on the quoted market prices of identical instruments. For further information on deferred compensation, see Note 8 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

Contingent Consideration Related to Acquisitions

Liabilities for contingent consideration related to acquisitions were valued using management’s projections for long-term sales forecasts, including assumptions regarding market share gains and future industry-specific economic and market conditions, and a market participant’s weighted average cost of capital. Over the next three years, the Company’s long-term sales growth forecasts for products subject to contingent consideration arrangements average approximately 25 percent per year. For further information on the inputs used in determining the fair value, and a roll-forward of the contingent consideration liability, see Note 11 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

Changes in either of the inputs in isolation would result in a change in the fair value measurement. A change in the assumptions used for sales forecasts would result in a directionally similar change in the fair value liability, while a change in the weighted average cost of capital would result in a directionally opposite change in the fair value liability. If there is an increase in the fair value liability, the Company would record a charge to selling, general and administrative expenses, and if there is a decrease in the fair value liability, the Company would record a benefit in selling, general and administrative expenses.

Derivative Instruments

At December 31, 2013, the Company had no derivative instruments outstanding. While outstanding, these derivative instruments were considered to be economic hedges of the underlying movement in the price of aluminum, but were not designated or accounted for as a hedge. These derivative instruments were valued at fair value using a market approach based on the quoted market prices of similar instruments at the end of each reporting period, and the resulting net gain or loss was recorded in cost of sales in the Consolidated Statements of Income. At December 31, 2012, the $0.2 million corresponding asset was recorded in prepaid expenses and other current assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. During 2013, derivative instruments for 4.7 million pounds of aluminum were settled at a loss of $0.3 million, which was recorded in cost of sales in the Consolidated Statements of Income.

75

Non-recurring

The following table presents the carrying value on the measurement date of any assets and liabilities which were measured at fair value and recorded at the lower of cost or fair value, on a non-recurring basis, using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3), and the corresponding non-recurring losses recognized during the years ended December 31:

Vacant Owned Facilities

During 2013, 2012 and 2011, the Company reviewed the recoverability of the carrying value of its vacant owned facilities. The determination of fair value was based on the best information available, including internal cash flow estimates, market prices for similar assets, broker quotes and independent appraisals, as appropriate.

During 2013, the fair value of two vacant owned facilities did not exceed its carrying value; therefore an impairment charge of $0.1 million was recorded in selling, general and administrative expenses in the Consolidated Statements of Income. A sale agreement has been signed on one facility, with closing scheduled for the first quarter of 2014. During 2013, the Company sold one of the facilities previously recorded as a vacant facility and reopened two facilities. At December 31, 2013, the Company had three vacant owned facilities, with an estimated combined fair value of $3.6 million and a combined carrying value of $3.2 million, including the one scheduled for closing in the first quarter of 2014, classified in fixed assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

During 2012, the carrying value of five vacant owned facilities exceeded their fair value; therefore an impairment charge of $0.5 million was recorded. During 2012, the Company sold at a gain of $0.8 million two of the facilities previously recorded as vacant facilities and reopened another. At December 31, 2012, the Company had four vacant owned facilities, with a combined carrying value of $5.0 million, classified in fixed assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

76

During 2011, the fair value of six vacant owned facilities exceeded their carrying value; therefore no impairment charges were recorded. At December 31, 2011, the Company had six vacant owned facilities with a combined carrying value of $10.0 million, classified in fixed assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Other Intangible Assets

During 2012, the Company reviewed the recoverability of amortizable intangible assets associated with an acquired patent. Based on the analyses, the $1.2 million carrying value of these intangible assets exceeded the undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated. As a result, the Company was required to determine the fair value of these intangible assets. Fair value was determined based on the present value of internal cash flow estimates. The resulting fair value of these intangible assets was nominal, therefore the Company recorded a non-cash impairment charge of $1.2 million, of which $1.0 million was recorded in cost of sales in the Consolidated Statements of Income. 

Net Assets of Acquired Businesses

The Company valued the assets and liabilities associated with the acquisitions of businesses on the respective acquisition dates. Depending upon the type of asset or liability acquired, the Company used different valuation techniques in determining the fair value. Those techniques included comparable market prices, long-term sales, profitability and cash flow forecasts, assumptions regarding future industry-specific economic and market conditions, a market participant’s weighted average cost of capital, as well as other techniques as circumstances required. For further information on acquired assets and liabilities, see Note 3 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

Vacant Leased Facilities

The Company recorded charges of $0.1 million and $0.2 million for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively, in selling, general and administrative expenses in the Consolidated Statements of Income related to the exit from leased facilities.

Item 9.   CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE.

None.

Item 9A.   CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the Company’s Exchange Act reports is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and (ii) accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure, in accordance with the definition of “disclosure controls and procedures” in Rule 13a-15 under the Exchange Act. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, cannot provide absolute assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. Management included in its evaluation the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. The Company continually evaluates its disclosure controls and procedures to determine if changes are appropriate based upon changes in the Company’s operations or the business environment in which it operates.

As of the end of the period covered by this Form 10-K, the Company performed an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and the Company’s Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures. Based on the foregoing, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

(a)     Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting.

We are responsible for the preparation and integrity of the Consolidated Financial Statements appearing in the Annual Report on Form 10-K. We are also responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. We maintain a system of internal control that is designed to provide reasonable assurance as to the fair and reliable preparation and presentation of the Consolidated Financial Statements, as well as to safeguard assets from unauthorized use or disposition. The Company continually evaluates its system of internal control over financial reporting to determine if changes are appropriate based upon changes in the Company’s operations or the business environment in which it operates.

Our control environment is the foundation for our system of internal control over financial reporting and is embodied in our Guidelines for Business Conduct. It sets the tone of our organization and includes factors such as integrity and ethical values. Our internal control over financial reporting is supported by formal policies and procedures which are reviewed, modified and improved as changes occur in business conditions and operations.

We conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based on the framework in Internal Control — Integrated Framework (1992) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). This evaluation included review of the documentation of controls, evaluation of the design effectiveness of controls, testing of the operating effectiveness of controls and a conclusion on this evaluation. Although there are inherent limitations in the effectiveness of any system of internal control over financial reporting, based on our evaluation, we have concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2013.

KPMG LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm, has audited the Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Report and, as part of their audit, has issued their attestation report on the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting, included elsewhere in this Form 10-K.

(b)     Report of the Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm.

The attestation report of our independent registered public accounting firm on the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting is included in Item 8. “Financial Statements and Supplementary Data.”

(c)     Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting.

There were no changes in the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting during the quarter ended December 31, 2013, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

The Company has selected a new enterprise resource planning (“ERP”) system, and has begun implementing that system. Although to date there have been no significant changes in the Company’s internal controls, the Company anticipates internal controls will be strengthened incrementally due both to the installation of the new ERP software and business process changes. The full implementation is expected to take several years.

Agreement made and entered into as of April 4, 2013 by and between Robert A. Kuhns (“Executive”) and Drew Industries Incorporated, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), as amended May 20, 2013.

WHEREAS, the Company believes that it is appropriate and in the best interest of the Company and its stockholders to provide to Executive compensation arrangements upon a Change in Control (as hereinafter defined) that mitigate Executive’s financial risks and uncertainties and that are reasonably competitive with those of other companies.

This Agreement shall be effective from the date hereof and, subject to the provisions of Section 4, shall extend to (and thereupon automatically terminate) one (1) day after Executive’s termination of employment with the Company for any reason.

2. PURPOSE OF AGREEMENT

The purpose of this Agreement is to provide that, in the event of a Change in Control, Executive may become entitled to receive certain benefits, as described herein, in the event of his termination under specified circumstances.

3. CHANGE IN CONTROL

As used in this Agreement, the phrase “Change in Control” shall mean:

3.1     A change in the effective control of the Company (which shall result from the acquisition, or acquisition during the 12-month period ending on the date of the latest acquisition, by any person, entity or “group” [within the meaning of Section 13(d)(3) or 14(d)(2) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)] excluding, for this purpose, the Company or its subsidiaries, or any executive benefit plan of the Company or its subsidiaries which acquires beneficial ownership of voting securities of the Company, of beneficial ownership [within the meaning of Rule 13d-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act] of thirty (30%) percent or more of the total voting power of the Company’s voting securities entitled to vote generally in the election of directors (the “Voting Securities”) or replacement of a majority of the directors of the Company during any 12-month period by directors not endorsed by a majority of the board of directors of the Company before appointment or election), or

3.2     Consummation by the Company of a reorganization, merger or consolidation with any other person, entity or corporation, other than

3.2.1     a merger or consolidation which would result in the Voting Securities outstanding immediately prior thereto continuing to represent (either by remaining outstanding or by being converted into voting securities of another entity) more than fifty percent (50%) of the combined voting power of the Voting Securities of the Company or such other entity outstanding immediately after such merger or consolidation, or

3.2.2     a merger or consolidation effected to implement a recapitalization of the Company (or similar transaction) in which no person, entity or group acquires twenty-five percent (25%) or more of the combined voting power of the Company’s then outstanding Voting Securities; or

3.3     Consummation by the Company of a plan of complete liquidation of the Company or a sale or other disposition by the Company of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets in one transaction or a series of transactions.

4. EFFECT OF A CHANGE IN CONTROL

In the event of a Change in Control, Sections 6 through 11 of this Agreement shall become applicable to Executive. The provisions of these Sections shall remain applicable until the first anniversary of the date upon which the Change in Control occurs. On such first anniversary date, and provided that the employment of Executive has not been terminated on account of a Qualifying Termination (as defined herein), this Agreement shall terminate and be of no further force or effect.

5. QUALIFYING TERMINATION

5.1     If within one (1) year following, or within one hundred twenty (120) days prior to, a Change in Control, Executive’s employment with the Company is terminated (“Involuntary Termination”), such termination shall be conclusively considered a “Qualifying Termination” unless:

5.1.1     The termination is on account of Executive’s death or Disability. For such purposes, “Disability” shall mean a physical or mental incapacity as a result of which Executive becomes unable to continue the performance of his responsibilities for the Company and its affiliated companies and which, at least three (3) months after its commencement, is determined to be total and permanent by a physician agreed to by the Company and Executive (or Executive’s legal representative). In the absence of agreement between the Company and Executive, each party shall nominate a qualified physician and the two physicians so nominated shall select a third physician who shall make the determination as to Disability, or

5.1.2     An Involuntary Termination occurs for “Cause.” For this purpose, “Cause” shall be limited to the following:

(i)     the refusal of Executive to comply with a lawful, written instruction of the Board of Directors or Executive’s immediate supervisor, which refusal is not remedied by Executive within a reasonable period of time after his receipt of written notice from the Company identifying the refusal, so long as the instruction is consistent with the scope and responsibilities of Executive’s position; or

(ii)     an act or acts of personal dishonesty by Executive which were intended to result in personal enrichment of Executive at the expense of the Company or any of its affiliated companies; or

(iii)     Executive’s conviction of any misdemeanor involving an act of moral turpitude or any felony.

5.2     Notwithstanding the foregoing, any termination of employment shall not be considered voluntary and would be considered involuntary without Detrimental Activity (as defined herein) if, within one (1) year following or within one hundred twenty (120) days prior to, the Change in Control, (i) Executive’s base salary is reduced by more than ten (10%) percent, or (ii) his authority or duties are materially changed and he elects to terminate his employment within sixty (60) days following such reduction, modification or change. Executive’s authority or duties shall conclusively be considered to have been “materially changed” if, without Executive’s express and voluntary written consent, there is any substantial diminution or adverse modification in Executive’s title, status, overall position, responsibilities, general working environment (including without limitation secretarial and staff support, offices, and frequency and mode of travel), or if, without Executive’s express and voluntary written consent, Executive’s job location is transferred to a site more than fifty (50) miles away from his residence and twenty-five (25) miles from the Company’s location on the date hereof.

5.3     For purposes of this Agreement, “Detrimental Activity” means (i) the unauthorized rendering of services for any organization or engaging, directly or indirectly, in any business which is competitive with the business of the Company; (ii) the disclosure to any person or entity outside the Company, or use in other than the Company’s business, without prior written authorization from the Company, of any “Confidential Information” (as defined in Exhibit A) or material relating to the business of the Company; (iii) activity that results in termination of Executive’s services as an employee of the Company for Cause (as defined herein), or (iv) any other conduct or act reasonably determined by the Company to be injurious, detrimental or prejudicial to any interest of the Company.

6. SEVERANCE PAYMENT-VESTING

6.1     Subject to Section 6.2 hereof, if Executive’s employment is terminated as a result of a Qualifying Termination, the Company shall pay Compensation (as hereinafter defined) to Executive for one (1) year following the Qualifying Termination, in accordance with the Company’s customary payroll practice (the “Severance Payment”). Except as provided in Section 6.5 hereof, such payments shall commence on the next payroll payment date following the Qualifying Termination.

6.2     The Severance Payment payable by the Company to Executive shall be reduced by an amount equal to the compensation and other benefits received by Executive from other employment or consulting activities, with or on behalf of, the person, entity or group, or their affiliates, which consummated the Change in Control as set forth in Section 3 hereof.

6.3     For purposes of this Agreement, Executive’s “Compensation” shall equal the sum of (i) Executive’s salary, at the annual rate applicable on the date of the Qualifying Termination, plus (ii) a “Bonus Increment.” The Bonus Increment shall equal the annualized average of all bonuses paid to Executive during the period, not to exceed three (3) years, immediately before the date of the Change of Control under all of the Company’s bonus plans or arrangements. Any shares of the Company’s common stock paid in accordance with the Bonus Increment shall have a value equal to the fair market value as of the last day of the period for which they are issued.

6.4     The Severance Payment hereunder is in lieu of any severance payment that Executive might otherwise be entitled to from the Company in the event of a Change in Control under the Company’s applicable severance pay policies, if any, or under any other oral or written agreement.

6.5     Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if at the time of the Executive’s “Separation From Service” (as hereinafter defined) the Executive shall be a “specified employee” (within the meaning of Treasury Regulation 1.409A-1(i)), as determined in a uniform manner by the Company, any Severance Payment payable to the Executive shall not be paid or commence until the first business day after six (6) months following the Executive’s “Separation From Service” (or if earlier upon his death). The term “Separation From Service” shall mean the Executive’s termination of active employment, whether voluntary or involuntary (other than by death) with the Company or any of its affiliated companies within the meaning of Treasury Regulation 1.409A-1(h). The Company will determine whether the Executive has terminated active employment (and incurred a Separation From Service) based upon facts and circumstances described in Treasury Regulation 1.409A-1(h)(1)(ii). The Executive shall incur a Separation From Service if the Company and the Executive reasonably anticipate the Executive will not perform any additional services after a certain date or that the level of bona fide services (as an employee or an independent contractor) will permanently decrease to no more than twenty (20%) percent of the average level of bona fide services performed over the immediately preceding 36-month period. The provisions of this Section 6.5 shall only apply if, and to the minimum extent, necessary to comply with Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, to avoid the Executive’s incurrence of any additional taxes or penalties under Section 409A.

7. ADDITIONAL BENEFITS

7.1     In the event of a Change in Control, any and all unvested or unconverted stock-based awards of Executive shall immediately become fully vested or converted, except for any unvested or unconverted stock-based awards which may be based on achievement of performance goals and are designated as long-term incentive compensation, which awards shall vest or convert proportionately.

7.2     In the event of a Qualifying Termination, Executive shall be entitled to continue to participate in the group medical insurance and disability insurance programs which had been made available to Executive (including his immediate family) and at the same level before the Qualifying Termination. These programs shall be continued at no cost to Executive, except to the extent that tax rules require the inclusion of the value of such benefits in Executive’s income. The programs shall continue for Executive’s benefit for one (1) years after the date of the Qualifying Termination; provided, however, that Executive’s participation in each of such programs shall be earlier terminated or reduced, as applicable, if and to the extent Executive receives benefits as a result of concurrent coverage through another program.

8. RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS PRIOR TO A CHANGE IN CONTROL

Prior to the date which is one hundred twenty (120) days before a Change in Control, the rights and obligations of Executive with respect to his employment by the Company shall be determined in accordance with the policies and procedures adopted from time to time by the Company. Unless otherwise expressly set forth in a separate written employment agreement between Executive and the Company, the employment of Executive is expressly at-will, and Executive or the Company may terminate Executive’s employment with the Company at any time and for any reason, with or without cause; provided, however, that if such termination occurs within one hundred twenty (120) days prior to or one (1) year after a Change in Control and constitutes a Qualifying Termination the provisions of this Agreement shall govern the payment of the Severance Payment and the other benefits as provided herein.

9. NON-EXCLUSIVITY OF RIGHTS

Nothing in this Agreement shall prevent or limit Executive’s continuing or future participation in any benefit, bonus, incentive or other plan or program provided by the Company or any of its affiliated companies and for which Executive may qualify, nor shall anything herein limit or otherwise affect such rights as Executive may have under any equity award made by the Company. Except as otherwise provided in Sections 6 and 7 hereof, amounts which are vested benefits or which Executive is otherwise entitled to receive under any plan or program of the Company or any of its affiliated companies at or subsequent to the date of any Qualified Termination shall be payable in accordance with such plan or program.

10. FULL SETTLEMENT

The Company’s obligation to pay the Severance Payment and other benefits provided for in this Agreement and otherwise to perform its obligations hereunder (i) shall not be affected by any set-off, counter-claim, recoupment, defense or other claim, right or action which the Company may have against Executive or others, and (ii) are subject to receipt by the Company of a duly executed and acknowledged Waiver and Release in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A. In no event shall Executive be obligated to seek other employment or to take any other action by way of mitigation of the amounts payable to Executive under any of the provisions of this Agreement. The Company agrees to pay, to the full extent permitted by law, all legal fees and expenses which Executive may reasonably incur as a result of Executive’s successful collection efforts to receive amounts payable hereunder.

11. SUCCESSORS.

11.1     This Agreement is personal to Executive, and without the prior written consent of the Company shall not be assignable by Executive other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by Executive’s legal representatives.

11.2     The rights and obligations of the Company under this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and shall be binding upon the successors and assigns of the Company.

1. General Waiver and Release

For and in consideration of the agreement of the Company to provide Executive the Severance Payment described in the Amended and Restated Change in Control Agreement, dated as of February 25, 2013, among Executive and the Company (the “Agreement”), Executive, with the intention of binding himself and all of his heirs, executors, administrators and assigns, does hereby release, remise, acquit and forever discharge the Company, and all of its respective past and present officers, directors, stockholders, employees, agents, parent corporations, predecessors, subsidiaries, affiliates, estates, successors, assigns and attorneys (hereinafter collectively referred to as “Released Parties”) from any and all claims, charges, actions, causes of action, sums of money due, suits, debts, covenants, contracts, agreements, rights, damages, promises, demands or liabilities (hereinafter collectively referred to as “Claims”) whatsoever, in law or in equity, whether known or unknown, suspected or unsuspected, which Executive, individually or as a member of any class, now has, owns or holds or has at any time heretofore ever had, owned or held against the Released Parties including, but not limited to, Claims arising out of or in any way connected with Executive’s employment with the Company or any of the Released Parties or the termination of any such employment relationship, including, but not limited to, Claims pursuant to Federal, state or local statute, regulation, ordinance or common-law for (i) employment discrimination; (ii) wrongful discharge; (iii) breach of contract; (iv) tort actions of any type, including those for intentional or negligent infliction of emotional harm; and (v) unpaid benefits, wages, compensation, commissions, bonuses or incentive payments of any type (excluding amounts which have been earned but have not been paid on the release date), except as follows:

1.1     those obligations of the Company and its affiliates under the Agreement, pursuant to which this Waiver and Release is being executed and delivered;

1.2     claims, if any, for Executive’s accrued or vested benefits under the retirement plans, savings plans, stock options, investment plans and employee welfare benefit plans, if any, of the Released Parties (within the meaning of Section 3(1) of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (“ERISA”)), as amended; provided, however, that nothing herein is intended to or shall be construed to require the Released Parties to institute or continue in effect any particular plan or benefit sponsored by the Released Parties and the Company and all other Released Parties hereby reserve the right to amend or terminate any such plan or benefit at any time; and

1.3     any rights to indemnification or advancement of expenses to which Executive may otherwise be entitled pursuant to the articles of incorporation or bylaws of any of the Released Parties, or by contract or applicable law, as a result of Executive’s service as an officer or director of any of the Released Parties. Executive further understands and agrees that he has knowingly relinquished, waived and forever released any and all remedies arising out of the aforesaid employment relationship or the termination thereof, including, without limitation, claims for backpay, front pay, liquidated damages, compensatory damages, general damages, special damages, punitive damages, exemplary damages, costs, expenses and attorneys’ fees, except for the Severance Payment required pursuant to the Agreement.

2. Covenant Not to Sue

Executive acknowledges and agrees that this Waiver and Release may not be revoked at any time and that he will not institute any suit, action, or proceeding, whether at law or equity, challenging the enforceability of this Waiver and Release. Should Executive ever attempt to challenge the terms of this Waiver and Release, attempt to obtain an order declaring this Waiver and Release to be null and void, or institute litigation against any of the Released Parties based upon a Claim which is covered by the terms of this Waiver and Release, Executive will as a condition precedent to such action repay all monies paid to him under the terms of the Agreement and this Waiver and Release. Furthermore, if Executive does not prevail in an action to challenge this Waiver and Release, to obtain an order declaring this Waiver and Release to be null and void, or in any action against any of the Released Parties based upon a Claim which is covered by the Waiver and Release set forth herein, Executive shall pay to the Company and/or the appropriate Released Parties all their costs and attorneys’ fees incurred in their defense of Executive’s action.

3. Denial of Liability

Executive acknowledges and agrees that neither the payment of the Severance Payment under the Agreement nor this Waiver and Release is to be construed in any way as an admission of any liability whatsoever by the Company or any of the other Released Parties, by whom liability is expressly denied.

4. Agreement Not to Seek Further Relief

Executive acknowledges and agrees that he has not, with respect to any transaction or state of facts existing prior to the date of execution of this Waiver and Release, filed any complaints, charges or lawsuits against any of the Released Parties with any governmental agency or any court or tribunal, with respect to any Claims related to Executive’s employment or the termination thereof as provided in Section 1 hereof, and that he will not do so at any time hereafter. Executive further acknowledges and agrees that he hereby waives any right to accept any relief or recovery, including costs and attorneys’ fees, that may arise from any charge or complaint before any Federal, state or local court or administrative agency against the Released Parties.

5. Company Property

Executive agrees that he will not retain or destroy, and will immediately return to the Company, any and all property of the Company in his possession or subject to his control, including, but not limited to, keys, credit and identification cards, personal items or equipment provided for his use, customer files, and information, all other files and documents relating to the Company and its business, together with all written or recorded materials, documents, computer disks, plans, records or notes or other papers belonging to the Company. Executive further agrees not to make, distribute or retain copies of any such information or property.

6. Non-Competition-Corporate Property-Confidential Information

6.1     During the period beginning with the date hereof and ending on the date of the final installment of the Severance Payment as provided in the Agreement (the “Restricted Period”), Executive will not, directly or indirectly, undertake or perform services in or for, or render services to, participate in, or have financial interest in, or engage in, any business competitive to that of the business of the LCI Entities, the Kinro Entities or Drew (collectively, the “Affiliated Companies’) or solicit for employment or employ any employee of the Affiliated Companies. For purposes hereof, a business shall be deemed competitive if it is conducted in any geographic or market area in which any of the Affiliated Companies are engaged in business during the Restricted Period and involves the development, design, manufacture, marketing, packaging, sale, use in production, or distribution, of any products developed, designed, manufactured, sold, used in production, or distributed, or the offering of any services offered, by any of the Affiliated Companies, whether on the date hereof or as of the termination or expiration date of this Agreement including, but not limited to, products for the manufactured housing (including park and office models), modular housing, recreational vehicle, bus, and boat and other specialty utility trailer, industries; and the Executive will be deemed directly or indirectly to engage in such business if the Executive, or any member of his immediate family participates in such business, or in any entity engaged in or which owns such business, as an officer, director, employee, consultant, partner, individual proprietor, manager or as an investor who has made any loans, contributed to capital stock or purchased any stock; the Executive will not, at any time, utilize any tradenames or corporate names used by the Affiliated Companies, or any derivatives of such names, in any business competitive to that of the business of the Affiliated Companies, nor any patent, trademark, tradename, service mark, logo, copyright or similar intellectual property, whether or not registered, of any of the Affiliated Companies. The foregoing, however, shall not be deemed to prevent the Executive from investing in securities if such class of securities in which the investment is made is listed on a national securities exchange or is of a company registered under Section 12(g) of the Securities Act of 1934 and, if the company in which such investment is made competes with any of the Affiliated Companies, such investment represents less than one (1%) per cent of the outstanding securities of such class.

6.2     The Executive agrees that all products, packaging, inventions, patents, patent applications, designs, creations, ideas, techniques, methods, or any portions thereof, or any improvements or modifications thereon, or any know-how or procedures related thereto, which relate to the business of the Affiliated Companies, conceived, invented, discovered or executed by the Executive, whether or not marketed or utilized by the Affiliated Companies, shall be sole and exclusive property of the Affiliated Companies, without additional compensation payable thereof; and by these presents the Executive hereby assigns to the Company any and all right, title and interest he has, or may have, therein.

6.3     The Executive acknowledges and agrees that during, and as a consequence of employment with the Company, he has learned confidential, proprietary and trade secret information of and about the Affiliated Companies, and has had access to and has been involved in the development and utilization of the Affiliated Companies’ confidential and proprietary business information. “Confidential Information” means information about the Affiliated Companies in whatever form disclosed or known to the Executive as a consequence of his employment by the Company which relates to the Affiliated Companies’ business, products, processes, or services that gives them a competitive advantage in the marketplace, including, but not limited to: (a) any information that would be considered a trade secret within the meaning of applicable Federal or state law; (b) information relating to any of the Affiliated Companies’ existing products or services or products or services under development; (c) information relating to the Affiliated Companies’ business dealings with customers or suppliers; (d) confidential customer or prospective customer lists; (e) sales-prices, costs, and profit margins; (f) confidential marketing and advertising programs; (g) financial information; (h) sales performance and strategies; (i) human resources strategies; (j) merger and acquisition plans; and (k) proprietary software or processes utilized by the Affiliated Companies. Confidential Information does not include information that the Executive proves was generally known and readily available to the Affiliated Companies’ competitors through legitimate means. The Executive agrees that he will not, either during the Term or at any time after the termination or expiration of this Agreement, disclose to anyone (except as authorized by the Corporations in furtherance of its business), publish, or use in competition with the Affiliated Companies, any of their Confidential Information. The Executive further agrees to abide by all rules or regulations the Company may implement from time to time to further protect their Confidential Information.

6.4     The Executive has carefully considered the nature and extent of the restrictions placed upon him, and the rights and remedies the Company have has under this Agreement, and acknowledges and agrees that they are reasonable as to time, territory, and activity; are designed to eliminate unfair competition to the Company; do not stifle the Executive’s inherent skill and experience or prohibit the Executive from being gainfully employed in the Executive’s chosen profession; are fully required to protect the legitimate interests in the Company; and do not confer a benefit upon the Company disproportionate to the restrictions imposed upon the Executive, or the consideration given therefor. It is the intention of the parties that, if any court of competent jurisdiction after a hearing on the merits construes any provision or clause of this Section 10, or any portion thereof, to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable because of the duration of such provision or the area or matter covered thereby, such court shall reduce the duration, area, or matter of such provision, and in its reduced form, such provision shall then be enforceable and shall be enforced.

6.5     Executive agrees that the obligations created by the restrictions placed upon him by this Section 6, as well as the Company’s rights and remedies in connection therewith, are in all respects transferable by either of the Company to any transferee of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, or to the acquirer(s) of Company’s capital stock.

6.6     Provided that Executive’s employment was not terminated by the Company for Detrimental Activity and for so long as Executive is not in default hereof, during the Restricted Period the Company will provide Executive with the medical coverage and disability insurance to which he is entitled pursuant to Sections 7.2 of the Agreement reduced by the medical coverage and disability insurance received by Executive from other employment or consulting activities.

7. Confidentiality Agreement

Executive acknowledges that the terms of this Waiver and Release are confidential. Accordingly, Executive agrees not to disclose or publish to any person or entity, except as required by law or as necessary to prepare tax returns, the terms and conditions or sums being paid in connection with this Waiver and Release.

8. Acknowledgment

Executive acknowledges that he has carefully read and fully understands the terms of this Waiver and Release and the Agreement and that this Waiver and Release is executed by Executive voluntarily and is not based upon any representations or statements of any kind made by the Company or any or the other Released Parties as to the merits, legal liabilities or value of his claims. Executive further acknowledges that he has had a full and reasonable opportunity to consider this Waiver Release and that he has not been pressured or in any way coerced into executing this Waiver and Release.

9. Choice of Laws

9.1     This Waiver and Release and the rights and obligations of the parties hereto shall be governed and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Indiana.

9.2     Each party hereto hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the United States District Court located in Elkhart County, Indiana over any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement. Each party hereby irrevocably waives to the fullest extent permitted by law, (i) the right to a trial by jury; (ii) any objection that they may now or hereafter have to the venue of any such suit, action or proceeding brought in any such court; or (iii) any claim that any such suit, action or proceeding has been brought in an inconvenient forum. Final judgement in any suit, action or proceeding brought in any such court shall be conclusive and binding upon each party duly served with process therein and may be enforced in the courts of the jurisdiction of which either party or any of their property is subject, by a suit upon such judgement.

10. Severability

Except for the waiver and release contained in Section 1 hereof, if any provision of this Waiver and Release is unenforceable or is held to be unenforceable, such provision shall be fully severable, and this Waiver and Release and its terms shall be construed and enforced as if such unenforceable provision had never comprised a part hereof, the remaining provisions hereof shall remain in full force and effect, and the court construing the provisions shall add as a part hereof a provision as similar in terms and effect to such unenforceable provision as may be enforceable, in lieu of the unenforceable provision. In the event that the release contained in Section 1 hereof is unenforceable or is held to be unenforceable, the parties understand and agree that the remaining provisions of this Waiver and Release shall be rendered null and void and that neither party shall have any further obligation under any provision of this Waiver and Release.

11. Entire Agreement

This document contains all terms of the Waiver and Release and supersedes and invalidates any previous agreements or contracts regarding the same subject matter. No representations, inducements, promises or agreements, oral or otherwise, which are not embodied herein shall be of any force or effect.

Senior Financial Officers of Drew and its Subsidiaries

Drew Industries expects all employees, in carrying out their job responsibilities, to act in accordance with the highest standards of personal and professional integrity, to comply with all applicable laws, and to abide by the Company’s Guidelines for Business Conduct and other corporate policies and procedures adopted from time to time. The Chief Executive Officers, Presidents, Chief Financial Officers, Controllers, and other key financial personnel of Drew and its subsidiaries as determined from time to time by the Chief Financial Officer and Chief Legal Officer of Drew (collectively, the “Financial Professionals”), have a special role to adhere to ethical conduct and integrity generally, and to promote accurate, fair and timely reporting of our Company’s financial results and condition and other information we release to the public market and include in reports we file with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Because of this special role, the Financial Professionals of Drew and its subsidiaries are bound by the following Code of Ethics, which supplements the Guidelines for Business Conduct and under which each agrees that in connection with the performance of their responsibilities to the Company he or she shall:

● Act with honesty and integrity, avoiding actual or apparent conflicts of interest in personal and professional relationships, including disclosure to the Chairman of the Audit Committee of any material transaction or relationship that reasonably could be expected to give rise to such a conflict.

● Provide information within the scope of his or her duties in a manner which promotes full, fair, accurate, timely and understandable disclosure in reports and documents that the Company files with, or submits to, government agencies, and in the Company’s other public communications.

● Comply with all applicable rules and regulations of federal, state, and local governments, and other appropriate private and public regulatory agencies.

● Act in good faith, responsibly, and with due care, competence and diligence, without misrepresenting material facts or allowing one’s independent judgment to be subordinated.

● Take all reasonable measures to protect the confidentiality of non-public information about the Company or its subsidiaries and their customers and vendors obtained or created in connection with his or her activities, and to prevent the unauthorized disclosure of such information unless required by applicable law or regulation or legal or regulatory process.

● Proactively promote and be an example of honest and ethical behavior.

● Achieve responsible use of and control over all assets and resources employed or entrusted.

● Promptly report to the Chairman of the Audit Committee any conduct that the individual believes to be, or would give rise to, a violation of law or business ethics or of any provision of this Code of Ethics or the Company’s Guidelines for Business Conduct.

DII Code of Ethics

All Financial Professionals are prohibited from directly or indirectly taking any action to coerce, manipulate, mislead or fraudulently influence Drew’s independent public accountant engaged in the performance of an audit or review of the financial statements of the Company for the purpose of rendering the financial statements of Drew misleading.

Violations of this Code of Ethics, including failures to report potential violations by others, will be viewed as a severe disciplinary matter that may result in personnel action, including termination of employment. Violations of this Code of Ethics may also constitute violations of law, and may result in civil and criminal penalties for the individual, his or her supervisor and/or Drew.

If you believe that a violation of the Code of Ethics has occurred, please contact David A. Reed, the Chairman of Drew’s Audit Committee at (877) 373-9123 (or dareed@causewaycapital.com). It is against the Company’s policy to retaliate against any employee for the good faith reporting of violations of this Code.

The Company has also adopted a Whistleblower Policy to establish policies and procedures for the reporting of complaints by directors, officers, employees, and other stakeholders of the Company, on a confidential and anonymous basis, regarding questionable accounting or auditing matters, internal controls, illegal practices, or violations of adopted policies of the Company. The Whistleblower Policy and procedure for complaints can be found on the Company’s website at www.drewindustries.com under Our Company – Corporate Governance - Whistleblower Policy.

The Audit Committee of the Board of Directors shall approve any waiver or amendment of this Code of Ethics, and any such waiver or substantive amendment shall be disclosed promptly as required by law or SEC regulations.

GUIDELINES FOR BUSINESS CONDUCT

 Please note that in all instances, references to the “Company” means any or all of Drew, Kinro and its subsidiaries, and Lippert Components and its subsidiaries.

DEFINITIONS

“Drew” means Drew Industries Incorporated.

“Kinro” means Kinro, Inc. and its direct and indirect subsidiaries.

“Lippert” means Lippert Components, Inc. and its direct and indirect subsidiaries.

For ease of reference, the term “Company” means the company with which you are employed consisting of either Drew, Kinro or Lippert. Guidelines applicable to employees of the Company are also applicable to all directors of Drew as the context requires.

I. PROTECTING THE COMPANY’S ASSETS

Every employee is responsible not only for protecting Company property (including confidential information), entrusted to him or her, but also for helping protect the Company’s assets in general.

Use of the Company’s Assets

Facilities, equipment and supplies must be used only for conducting the Company’s business.

Funds or assets of the Company may be used only for conducting the Company’s business, and not for any unlawful or improper purposes.

Confidential Information

Confidential (proprietary) information includes any non-public business, financial and product plans. It includes, but is not limited to, designs, engineering and manufacturing know-how and processes, customer and supplier information, pricing, and a variety of internal information, such as personnel and salary information.

One obligation that you have, as an employee and at any time after you leave employment, is not to disclose to anyone outside the Company any confidential information. Another obligation is to use such information only in the Company’s business. If questions from someone outside the Company come to you, do not answer them unless you’re authorized to do so.

Inadvertent disclosure of confidential information by loyal employees can harm the Company’s interest. For example, other than as may be necessary for purposes of conducting the Company’s business, you should not discuss with anyone outside the Company, products, products being developed or prices. You should never discuss with anyone outside the Company earnings or business volume that have not been made public, marketing strategies, business plans or other confidential information.

Even if you retire, or leave the Company for any other reason, you may not disclose or misuse confidential information.

Guidelines for Business Conduct - Page 1

II. RECORDING AND REPORTING INFORMATION–WHISTLEBLOWER POLICY

You should record and report information not only accurately but honestly.

Every employee records or submits to the Company information of some kind. Reporting time worked is an example, as is the recording of financial information by accounting personnel. Expense accounts are another important record.

Particularly serious would be the reporting of false or misleading financial information.

The Company has adopted a WHISTLEBLOWER POLICY to establish policies and procedures for:

● The reporting of complaints (“Complaints”) by directors, officers, employees, and other stakeholders of the Company, on a confidential and anonymous basis, regarding questionable accounting or auditing matters, internal controls, illegal practices, or violations of adopted policies of the Company;

● The receipt, retention, and treatment of Complaints received by the Company; and

● The protection of directors, officers and employees from retaliatory actions for reporting Complaints.

The Whistleblower Policy and procedure for Complaints can be found on the Company’s website at www.drewindustries.com under Our Company – Corporate Governance - Whistleblower Policy.

Even though Complaints may be reported directly to Federal or state government authorities, the Company encourages the reporting of Complaints within the Company for investigation and appropriate action.

III. BUSINESS CONTACTS WITH COMPETITORS

Be careful of your relationship with any competitor.

In all contacts with competitors, the general rule is to avoid discussing such matters as pricing policy, terms and conditions, costs, customer information, supplier information, inventories, products plans, production plans or methods and, of course, any information which is confidential.

Collaboration or discussion with competitors on these subjects can be illegal. If a competitor raises any of them you should object and stop the discussion immediately, and report the incident to your supervisor.

IV. ACQUIRING AND USING INFORMATION ABOUT OTHERS

In the normal course of doing business, you may acquire information about customers, suppliers, prospects or information about their employees. In itself, this is ethical.

There are limits, however, on how such information should be acquired and used, especially information about competitors. No person should, through improper means, acquire a competitor’s trade secrets or other confidential information.

Industrial espionage - burglary, wiretapping, stealing and so forth - is obviously wrong. So is hiring a competitor’s employees to get confidential information or urging a competitor’s employees or customers to disclose confidential data.

You should also be sensitive to how you use information about other companies and their employees.

Guidelines for Business Conduct - Page 2

V. BRIBES, GIFTS, ENTERTAINMENT AND SOLICITATIONS

Gifts between employees of different companies range from widely distributed advertising novelties of small value, which you may both give and receive, to bribes, which unquestionably you may not. You may pay for and accept customary business amenities such as meals, provided the expenses involved are kept at a reasonable level.

There is, however, a point of unacceptability. The difficulty lies in determining where that point is. One way to approach this question is to recognize that the purpose of both gifts and entertainment in business is to create goodwill. If they do more than that and unduly influence the recipient or make that person feel obligated to “pay back” the other company or individual by giving it business, then they are unacceptable.

Neither you, nor any member of your family, may ask for or accept, from a supplier or customer, money or a gift that may reasonably be construed as having any connection with the Company’s business relationship. Gifts also include discounts on personal purchases.

You may not give money or any gift to an executive, official or employee of any supplier, customer, government agency or other organization if it could reasonably be construed as having any connection with the Company’s business or property.

While the Company encourages all of its employees to participate in charitable causes and other community service organizations, the Company also recognizes that solicitations of customers or suppliers for charitable or political contributions or services can, in certain instances, impact the Company’s business relationships and cause an appearance of impropriety. Accordingly, you should not solicit any customer or supplier for charitable or political contributions, unless you obtain the approval of the Chief Executive Officer of the Company by which you are employed, or unless the solicitation is made to an individual in the context of a personal friendship, on your own time and away from Company premises, and does not involve the Company or its business in any manner. Under no circumstances may an employee solicit customers or suppliers on behalf of the Company for political contributions or services.

The U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act makes it illegal for any officer or employee of the Company to bribe foreign officials to induce or influence an official decision or to obtain an improper advantage. Civil and criminal penalties for violation of this law are severe. Gifts, payments, or offerings of anything of value to foreign officials or domestic officials are strictly prohibited by the Company.

VI. CONFLICT OF INTEREST

A conflict of interest would exist for you if you had any interests or activities outside the Company that you could benefit from to the detriment of the Company. In other words, given your responsibilities to the outside interest and your responsibilities to the Company as an employee, your loyalty becomes divided.

Your Personal Financial Interest

You should not have a financial interest in a supplier, competitor, customer, distributor or any other organization that could cause a conflict of interest.

A financial interest would be improper if the combination of your job, the amount of your investment and the particular company in which you invested could, viewed objectively by another person, influence your actions as an employee of the Company.

In the case of a supplier, ask yourself whether you have anything to do, directly or indirectly, with a decision on whether the Company does business with this other company. If you do, you should not have any financial interest at all in the other company.

You should not evade these guidelines on investments by acting indirectly through anyone else, including family members.

Guidelines for Business Conduct - Page 3

Your Non Work Activity - Competing with the Company

You may not market products or services which compete with the Company’s products. Nor, without the Company’s consent, may you work for a competitor during your employment with the Company as an employee, consultant or member of its board of directors, since usually that would create a conflict of interest.

Supplying the Company

You may not accept money or any benefits from any supplier for business advice or services with respect to the supplier’s business with the Company. Nor may you represent a supplier to the Company, be a part of its operating management or work on anything offered by that supplier to the Company. Also, although there may be exceptions established by the Company, you may not, as a general rule, be a supplier to the Company in your own right.

Use of the Company’s Time and Assets

You may not perform outside work or solicit business on your own behalf while on the Company premises or the Company’s time. Nor may you use the Company’s equipment, materials, resources or proprietary information for any outside work.

Waiver of Conflict of Interest

If you have any interests or activities outside the Company that could, or could appear to, possibly influence your decisions or actions as an employee of the Company, you must disclose the interests or activities to the Chief Legal Officer of the Company. If the Chief Legal Officer determines that a waiver of the conflict of interest may be appropriate, a written waiver must be obtained from the Company upon approval of Drew’s Audit Committee. Failure to make disclosure of a conflict of interest and obtain a written waiver is cause for dismissal. The Company’s Chief Legal Officer will report to the Audit Committee quarterly all requests for waivers.

VII. POLITICAL CONTRIBUTIONS

The Company will not make contributions or payments to political parties or candidates. Nor will the Company provide any other form of support that may be considered a contribution.

VIII. USING INSIDE INFORMATION

A specific area of concern in investing is the improper use of what is called inside information; non-public information about the Company or another company, such as a customer. The improper use of such information for your own financial benefit is a violation of law.

Here are some examples:

• If you know, due to your position as an insider, that our Company, an affiliate, or a customer or supplier is about to make an announcement that could affect the price of its stock, you should not buy or sell that stock, nor suggest that someone else do so, until after expiration of two full New York Stock Exchange trading days after the announcement.

• You should not buy or sell the stock of a customer or supplier based on any inside information you have about that company.

• As with investments, you should not evade these guidelines by acting through anyone else, including your family members.

Guidelines for Business Conduct - Page 4

IX. TECHNOLOGY RESOURCES

Technology resources consist of all electronic devices, software, and means of electronic communication, including access to the Internet. All such resources (including, but not limited to e-mail) are the property of the Company and may from time to time be accessed by the Company without an employee's permission or knowledge. The Company's technology resources are to be used by employees only for the purpose of conducting Company business. Employees may, however, use the Company's technology resources for incidental personal use so long as such use does not interfere with the employee's duties, is not done for pecuniary gain, does not conflict with the Company's business and does not violate any Company policy. Finally, all e-mail messages sent from the Company, even if personal, should be business-like and messages that are harassing or improper are strictly forbidden.

X. COMPETITION LAW AND BUSINESS CONDUCT

Under competition (antitrust) laws, companies may not enter into agreements with other companies, even informally, that unreasonably restrict the competitive system. An example of such a prohibited agreement is one between competitors to charge the same price for their products. Other examples include agreements between competitors to divide markets or control production and a company’s agreement with its suppliers that they will not sell to its competitors, or with its distributors that they will not handle competitive products.

Except for arrangements already approved - such as standard types of contracts like sales and purchasing agreements - all other contracts or arrangements between the Company and other persons or companies should be reviewed by the Company’s legal counsel.

XI. MEDIA AND OTHER OUTSIDE COMMUNICATION

From time to time, the Company's employees may receive inquiries from the media, attorneys, accountants or others regarding the Company or its customers. All such inquiries should be immediately referred to their supervisor. Employees should never respond to these inquiries, unless under specific instructions to do so. If any employee is required to provide information pursuant to a subpoena or court order, their supervisor must be immediately notified and the Company will aid the employee in providing accurate, relevant information.

XII. COMPLIANCE WITH COPYRIGHT LAWS

Photocopying and dissemination of material contained in books, newsletters and other periodicals and computer software can result in substantial corporate and personal liability for copyright infringement. Photocopying newsletters on a systematical and cover-to-cover basis, even for internal use, creates a high risk of liability for copyright infringement and is prohibited. Additionally, unless specifically permitted in the license agreement accompanying computer software, copying computer software is a copyright infringement and is prohibited.

 XIII.  ALCOHOL AND DRUG USE

The safety and health of employees continue to be of utmost concern to the Company. Also, the productivity, effectiveness, and morale of employees are matters of high and legitimate priority to the Company. In its commitment to maintain a safe and healthy work environment and a productive employee group, the Company has set forth this policy against alcohol and drug abuse.

It is the policy of the Company to prohibit the manufacture, distribution, sale or transfer, or unauthorized use or possession of, alcohol and unprescribed controlled substances on Company property (including parking lots) or during working time at any location. It is also a violation of policy for any employee to appear for or to work while under the influence of alcohol or an unprescribed controlled substance.

Guidelines for Business Conduct - Page 5

Prescription drugs prescribed by the employee’s physician may be taken during working hours, but the employee must notify the supervisor if the prescription drugs may affect the employee’s work performance or behavior. Abuse of prescription drugs will be regarded as a violation of this policy.

The Company may perform random and/or reasonable suspicion drug testing of employees as part of its commitment to maintaining a drug-free workplace.

XIV. DISCRIMINATION AND HARASSMENT

The Company is committed to maintaining a work environment in which all individuals, employees and non-employees alike, are treated with respect and dignity. Each person has the right to work in a professional atmosphere that promotes equal opportunities, prohibits discriminatory practices and is free from all forms of harassment based on any protected characteristic, including sexual harassment. Discrimination or harassment, whether based on race, color, religion, gender, national origin, age, disability or sexual orientation, whether it is verbal or physical, and whether it occurs on the Company’s premises, at work assignments outside the Company’s premises, at Company sponsored social functions or elsewhere, is unacceptable and will not be tolerated.

Prohibited harassment includes unwelcome or unwanted sexual advances, requests for sexual favors, and other verbal, nonverbal or physical conduct of a sexual nature or which is undertaken on the basis of a protected characteristic when: (1) submission to or rejection of such conduct by an individual is used as a factor in decisions affecting hiring, evaluation, promotion, termination or other aspects of employment; or (2) such conduct substantially interferes with an individual’s employment or creates an intimidating, hostile or offensive work environment.

Examples of unacceptable conduct include behavior such as teasing; racial slurs; ethnic jokes or disparaging remarks; repeated unwelcome flirtations, advances or propositions; graphic or verbal commentary about an individual’s body or sexual prowess or deficiencies; leering; whistling; touching, pinching or other unwelcome physical contact; suggestive, insulting, obscene or demeaning comments or gestures; and display in the workplace of sexually suggestive objects or pictures.

Even consenting sexual relationships between employees may lead to unforeseen complications. Every employee should be aware of the possible risks of even an apparently consensual sexual relationship, including the possible difficulty of showing mutual consent. The Company may alter the responsibilities of employees engaged in a consenting relationship to diminish the job related contact they may have with each other.

The same risks are present in seemingly mutual or consensual “horseplay” involving behavior that is demeaning or derogatory towards individuals based on a particular characteristic.

The Company encourages employees to report all incidents of discrimination or prohibited harassment, regardless of whom the offender might be, in the manner established by the Company’s policies that have been made available to its employees. Often a frank discussion with the alleged offender will resolve the problem. If the offensive behavior continues, or an employee is uncomfortable discussing the behavior with the offending individual, a supervisor or the human resource manager is available to talk with the employee. In all cases, the human resource manager should be kept apprised of the situation.

Complaints will be promptly investigated in accordance with the Company’s established procedures, including interviews of the complaining individual, the alleged offender and any identified witnesses. Confidentiality will be maintained to the maximum extent possible. If the allegations of improper behavior are confirmed, appropriate disciplinary action will be taken, up to and including dismissal.

It is also a violation of this policy to retaliate against any individual who in good faith complains of discriminatory or harassing behavior or who assists in investigations of complaints. No employee will be discriminated against, or discharged, because of bringing, or assisting in the investigation of, a complaint of discrimination or prohibited harassment. Retaliatory conduct may result in discipline, up to and including discharge. If, however, after investigating any complaint of harassment or discrimination, the Company determines that an employee has provided false information regarding the complaint, disciplinary action may be taken against that individual.

Guidelines for Business Conduct - Page 6

XV. COMPANY PROPERTY

Products and Production

All inventions, designs, specifications, creations, ideas, techniques and methods involving any products or services offered by the Company, or any manufacturing techniques, and any modifications or improvements to any of these, that are invented, discovered or implemented by any employee of the Company during his/her employment with the Company are the property of the Company and are owned by the Company. This is the case whether or not the employee used the Company’s facilities, equipment, materials or personnel, and whether or not the Company markets or utilizes these inventions, discoveries or implementations. Upon request, employees are required to sign and deliver to the Company any documents needed to establish or record the Company’s title to these inventions, discoveries or implementations.

Information Systems

All computer software systems and developments, including specifications, programs, documentation, source codes, object codes, algorithms, computer routines, flow charts, diagrams, data and data bases made or conceived or developed by any employee of the Company during his/her employment with the Company relating to any aspect of the Company’s business are the property of the Company and are owned by the Company. This is the case whether or not the employee used the Company’s facilities, equipment, materials or personnel, and whether or not the Company utilizes these software systems and developments. Upon request, employees are required to sign and deliver to the Company any documents needed to establish or record the Company’s title to these systems and developments.

XVI. COMPLIANCE WITH LAW

It is the Company's policy to, and the Company expects all employees to, comply with the Equal Pay Act (provides for equal pay for males and females for comparable work), the Fair Labor Standards Act (regulates minimum wage and overtime compensation), the Family Medical Leave Act (requires employers to allow eligible employees to take up to 12 weeks of unpaid leave for the care of a child, spouse, or parent with a serious health condition, the birth or adoption of a child, or the employee's own serious health condition), Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 (prohibits employment discrimination on the basis of race, color, religion, national origin or sex), the Americans with Disabilities Act (prohibits discrimination in the workplace against qualified individuals with disabilities), the Age Discrimination in Employment Act (prohibits employers from discriminating against employees 40 years of age or older), the Occupational Safety and Health Act (requires employees to furnish their workers with a workplace that is free from recognized hazards that cause or are likely to cause, death or serious injury) and all other federal, state and local laws applicable to employment.

Violation of the foregoing Guidelines by any officer or employee will result in appropriate discipline that may include demotion or termination of employment. The Company shall not retain any individual who, in the good faith judgment of the Company, has shown a propensity to engage in illegal activities.

Those in our Company who lead others hold a special position of responsibility to proactively promote and be an example of honest and ethical behavior. As a result, only the Board of Directors or an appropriate Committee of the Board may waive a provision of these Guidelines for an executive officer or director. Any such waiver shall be disclosed promptly as required by law or SEC regulations.

Segment Reporting [Abstract]

Segment Reporting

2. SEGMENT REPORTING

     The Company has two reportable segments; the recreational vehicle products segment (the "RV Segment") and the manufactured housing products segment (the "MH Segment"). Intersegment sales are insignificant.

     The RV Segment, which accounted for 88 percent, 87 percent and 84 percent of consolidated net sales for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively, manufactures a variety of products used primarily in the production of RVs, including:

^ÏSteel chassis for towable RVs ^ÏAxles and suspension solutions for towable RVs ^ÏSlide-out mechanisms and solutions ^ÏThermoformed bath, kitchen and other products ^ÏEntry steps ^ÏManual, electric and hydraulic stabilizer and leveling systems ^ÏAluminum windows and screens ^ÏChassis components ^ÏFurniture and mattresses ^ÏEntry, baggage, patio and ramp doors ^ÏAwnings ^ÏOther accessories

    The Company also supplies certain of these products to the RV aftermarket. In addition, the Company manufactures components for adjacent industries, including buses, trailers used to haul boats, livestock, equipment and other cargo, and truck caps. Approximately 81 percent of the Company's RV Segment net sales in 2013 were of products to original equipment manufacturers ("OEMs") of travel trailer and fifth-wheel RVs.

     The MH Segment, which accounted for 12 percent, 13 percent and 16 percent of consolidated net sales for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively, manufactures a variety of products used in the production of manufactured homes and to a lesser extent, modular housing and mobile office units, including:

^ÏVinyl and aluminum windows and screens ^ÏThermoformed bath and kitchen products ^ÏSteel and fiberglass entry doors ^ÏAluminum and vinyl patio doors ^ÏSteel chassis ^ÏSteel chassis parts ^ÏAxles

The Company also supplies certain of these products to the manufactured housing aftermarket. Certain of the Company's MH Segment customers manufacture both manufactured homes and modular homes, and certain of the products manufactured by the Company are suitable for both types of homes. As a result, the Company is not always able to determine in which type of home its products are installed.

     Decisions concerning the allocation of the Company's resources are made by the Company's key executives, with oversight by the Board of Directors. This group evaluates the performance of each segment based upon segment operating profit or loss, defined as income or loss before interest, executive succession and income taxes. Decisions concerning the allocation of resources are also based on each segment's utilization of assets. Management of debt is a corporate function. The accounting policies of the RV and MH Segments are the same as those described in Note 1 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

     Effective with the second quarter of 2013, in connection with the management succession and relocation of the corporate office from New York to Indiana, corporate expenses, accretion related to contingent consideration and other non-segment items, which were previously reported on separate lines, have been included as part of segment operating profit. Corporate expenses are allocated between the segments based upon net sales. Accretion related to contingent consideration and other non-segment items are included in the segment to which they relate. The segment disclosures from prior years have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.

Information relating to segments follows for the years ended December 31:

Summary Of Significant Accounting Policies [Abstract]

Summary Of Significant Accounting Policies

1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation

     The Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of Drew Industries Incorporated and its wholly-owned subsidiaries (collectively, "Drew" or the "Company"). Drew has no unconsolidated subsidiaries. Drew operates through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Lippert Components, Inc. and its subsidiaries (collectively, "Lippert Components"). Effective December 2013, the Company completed the tax-free reorganization of Kinro, Inc. and its subsidiaries with and into Lippert Components. Drew, through Lippert Components, manufactures a broad array of components for recreational vehicles ("RVs") and manufactured homes, and to a lesser extent manufactures components for modular housing, truck caps and buses, as well as for trailers used to haul boats, livestock, equipment and other cargo. At December 31, 2013, the Company operated 31 manufacturing facilities in 11 states.

     Because of fluctuations in dealer inventories, and the impact of international, national and regional economic conditions and consumer confidence on retail sales of RVs and other products for which we sell our components, current and future seasonal industry trends may be different than in prior years.

     The Company is not aware of any significant events, except as disclosed in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, which occurred subsequent to the balance sheet date but prior to the filing of this report that would have a material impact on the Consolidated Financial Statements.

     All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. Certain prior year balances have been reclassified to conform to current year presentation.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

     The Company considers all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less at the time of purchase to be cash equivalents.

Accounts Receivable

     Accounts receivable are stated at historical carrying value, net of write-offs and allowances. The Company establishes allowances based upon historical experience and any specific customer collection issues identified by the Company. Uncollectible accounts receivable are written off when a settlement is reached or when the Company has determined the balance will not be collected.

Inventories

     Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (using the first-in, first-out method) or market. Cost includes material, labor and overhead; market is replacement cost or realizable value after allowance for costs of distribution.

Fixed Assets

     Fixed assets which are owned are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation, and are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the properties and equipment. Leasehold improvements and leased equipment are amortized over the shorter of the lives of the leases or the underlying assets. Maintenance and repair costs that do not improve service potential or extend economic life are expensed as incurred; significant improvements are capitalized.

Income Taxes

     Deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the temporary differences between the financial reporting and tax basis of assets and liabilities, applying enacted statutory tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse.

     The Company accounts for uncertainty in tax positions by recognizing in its financial statements the impact of a tax position only if that position is more likely than not of being sustained on audit, based on the technical merits of the position. Further, the Company assesses the tax benefits of the tax positions in its financial statements based on experience with similar tax positions, information obtained during the examination process and the advice of experts. The Company recognizes previously unrecognized tax benefits upon the earlier of the expiration of the period to assess tax in the applicable taxing jurisdiction or when the matter is constructively settled and upon changes in statutes or regulations and new case law or rulings.

     The Company classifies interest and penalties related to income taxes as income tax expense in its Consolidated Financial Statements.

Goodwill

     Goodwill represents the excess of the total consideration given in an acquisition of a business over the fair value of the net tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired. Goodwill is not amortized, but instead is tested at the reporting unit level for impairment annually in November, or more frequently if certain circumstances indicate a possible impairment may exist. In 2013, the Company assessed qualitative factors of its reporting units to determine whether it was more likely than not the fair value of the reporting unit was less than its carrying amount, including goodwill. The qualitative impairment test consists of an assessment of qualitative factors, including general economic and industry conditions, market share and input costs. In 2012 and 2011, the impairment tests were based on fair value, determined using discounted cash flows, appraised values or management's estimates.

Other Intangible Assets

     Intangible assets with estimable useful lives are amortized over their respective estimated useful lives to their estimated residual values, and reviewed for impairment. The amortization of other intangible assets is done using a method, straight-line or accelerated, which best reflects the pattern in which the estimated future economic benefits of the asset will be consumed.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

     Long-lived assets, other than goodwill, are tested for impairment when changes in circumstances indicate their carrying value may not be recoverable. A determination of impairment, if any, is made based on the undiscounted value of estimated future cash flows, salvage value or expected net sales proceeds, depending on the circumstances. Impairment is measured as the excess of the carrying value over the estimated fair value of such assets.

Asset Retirement Obligations

     Asset retirement obligations are legal obligations associated with the retirement of long-lived assets. The Company records asset retirement obligations on certain of its owned and leased facilities and leased machinery and equipment. These liabilities are initially recorded at fair value and are adjusted for changes resulting from revisions to the timing or the amount of the original estimate.

Environmental Liabilities

     Accruals for environmental matters are recorded when it is probable a liability has been incurred and the amount of the liability can be reasonably estimated, based upon current law and existing technologies. These amounts, which are not discounted and are exclusive of claims against potentially responsible third parties, are adjusted periodically as assessment and remediation efforts progress or additional technical or legal information becomes available. Environmental exposures are difficult to assess for numerous reasons, including the identification of new sites, developments at sites resulting from investigatory studies and remedial activities, advances in technology, changes in environmental laws and regulations and their application, the scarcity of reliable data pertaining to identified sites, the difficulty in assessing the involvement and financial capability of other potentially responsible parties and the Company's ability to obtain contributions from other parties, and the lengthy time periods over which site remediation occurs. It is possible some of these matters (the outcomes of which are subject to various uncertainties) may be resolved unfavorably against the Company, and could materially affect operating results when resolved in future periods.

Financial Instruments

     The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximated their fair value due to the short-term nature of these instruments.

Stock-Based Compensation

     All stock-based compensation awards are expensed over their vesting period, based on fair value. For awards that have a service only vesting condition, the Company recognizes stock-based compensation expense on a straight-line basis over the requisite service periods. For awards with a performance vesting condition, which are subject to certain pre-established performance targets, the Company recognizes stock-based compensation expense on a graded-vesting basis to the extent it is probable the performance targets will be met. The fair value for stock options is determined using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model, while the fair values of deferred stock units and restricted stock are based on the market price of the Company's Common Stock, all on the date the stock-based awards are granted.

Revenue Recognition

     The Company recognizes revenue when products are shipped and the customer takes ownership and assumes risk of loss, collectability is reasonably assured, and the sales price is fixed or determinable. Sales taxes collected from customers and remitted to governmental authorities, which are not significant, are accounted for on a net basis and therefore are excluded from net sales in the Consolidated Statements of Income.

Shipping and Handling Costs

     The Company records shipping and handling costs within selling, general and administrative expenses. Such costs aggregated $36.4 million, $32.7 million and $24.6 million in the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

Legal Costs

     The Company expenses all legal costs associated with litigation as incurred. Legal expenses are included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the Consolidated Statements of Income.

Fair Value Measurements

     Fair value is determined using a hierarchy that has three levels based on the reliability of the inputs used to determine fair value. Level 1 refers to fair values determined based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets. Level 2 refers to fair values estimated using significant other observable inputs, and Level 3 includes fair values estimated using significant unobservable inputs.

Use of Estimates

     The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires the Company to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, net sales and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an ongoing basis, the Company evaluates its estimates, including, but not limited to, those related to product returns, sales and purchase rebates, accounts receivable, inventories, goodwill and other intangible assets, income taxes, warranty obligations, self-insurance obligations, lease terminations, asset retirement obligations, long-lived assets, executive succession, post-retirement benefits, stock-based compensation, segment allocations, contingent consideration, environmental liabilities, contingencies and litigation. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience, other available information and various other assumptions believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other resources. Actual results and events could differ significantly from management estimates.

Summary Of Significant Accounting Policies (Policies)

12 Months Ended

Dec. 31, 2013

Summary Of Significant Accounting Policies [Abstract]

Basis Of Presentation

Basis of Presentation

     The Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of Drew Industries Incorporated and its wholly-owned subsidiaries (collectively, "Drew" or the "Company"). Drew has no unconsolidated subsidiaries. Drew operates through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Lippert Components, Inc. and its subsidiaries (collectively, "Lippert Components"). Effective December 2013, the Company completed the tax-free reorganization of Kinro, Inc. and its subsidiaries with and into Lippert Components. Drew, through Lippert Components, manufactures a broad array of components for recreational vehicles ("RVs") and manufactured homes, and to a lesser extent manufactures components for modular housing, truck caps and buses, as well as for trailers used to haul boats, livestock, equipment and other cargo. At December 31, 2013, the Company operated 31 manufacturing facilities in 11 states.

     Because of fluctuations in dealer inventories, and the impact of international, national and regional economic conditions and consumer confidence on retail sales of RVs and other products for which we sell our components, current and future seasonal industry trends may be different than in prior years.

     The Company is not aware of any significant events, except as disclosed in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, which occurred subsequent to the balance sheet date but prior to the filing of this report that would have a material impact on the Consolidated Financial Statements.

     All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. Certain prior year balances have been reclassified to conform to current year presentation.

Cash And Cash Equivalents

Cash and Cash Equivalents

     The Company considers all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less at the time of purchase to be cash equivalents.

Accounts Receivable

Accounts Receivable

     Accounts receivable are stated at historical carrying value, net of write-offs and allowances. The Company establishes allowances based upon historical experience and any specific customer collection issues identified by the Company. Uncollectible accounts receivable are written off when a settlement is reached or when the Company has determined the balance will not be collected.

Inventories

Inventories

     Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (using the first-in, first-out method) or market. Cost includes material, labor and overhead; market is replacement cost or realizable value after allowance for costs of distribution.

Fixed Assets

Fixed Assets

     Fixed assets which are owned are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation, and are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the properties and equipment. Leasehold improvements and leased equipment are amortized over the shorter of the lives of the leases or the underlying assets. Maintenance and repair costs that do not improve service potential or extend economic life are expensed as incurred; significant improvements are capitalized.

Income Taxes

Income Taxes

     Deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the temporary differences between the financial reporting and tax basis of assets and liabilities, applying enacted statutory tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse.

     The Company accounts for uncertainty in tax positions by recognizing in its financial statements the impact of a tax position only if that position is more likely than not of being sustained on audit, based on the technical merits of the position. Further, the Company assesses the tax benefits of the tax positions in its financial statements based on experience with similar tax positions, information obtained during the examination process and the advice of experts. The Company recognizes previously unrecognized tax benefits upon the earlier of the expiration of the period to assess tax in the applicable taxing jurisdiction or when the matter is constructively settled and upon changes in statutes or regulations and new case law or rulings.

     The Company classifies interest and penalties related to income taxes as income tax expense in its Consolidated Financial Statements.

Goodwill

Goodwill

     Goodwill represents the excess of the total consideration given in an acquisition of a business over the fair value of the net tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired. Goodwill is not amortized, but instead is tested at the reporting unit level for impairment annually in November, or more frequently if certain circumstances indicate a possible impairment may exist. In 2013, the Company assessed qualitative factors of its reporting units to determine whether it was more likely than not the fair value of the reporting unit was less than its carrying amount, including goodwill. The qualitative impairment test consists of an assessment of qualitative factors, including general economic and industry conditions, market share and input costs. In 2012 and 2011, the impairment tests were based on fair value, determined using discounted cash flows, appraised values or management's estimates.

Other Intangible Assets

Other Intangible Assets

     Intangible assets with estimable useful lives are amortized over their respective estimated useful lives to their estimated residual values, and reviewed for impairment. The amortization of other intangible assets is done using a method, straight-line or accelerated, which best reflects the pattern in which the estimated future economic benefits of the asset will be consumed.

Impairment Of Long-Lived Assets

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

     Long-lived assets, other than goodwill, are tested for impairment when changes in circumstances indicate their carrying value may not be recoverable. A determination of impairment, if any, is made based on the undiscounted value of estimated future cash flows, salvage value or expected net sales proceeds, depending on the circumstances. Impairment is measured as the excess of the carrying value over the estimated fair value of such assets.

Asset Retirement Obligations

Asset Retirement Obligations

     Asset retirement obligations are legal obligations associated with the retirement of long-lived assets. The Company records asset retirement obligations on certain of its owned and leased facilities and leased machinery and equipment. These liabilities are initially recorded at fair value and are adjusted for changes resulting from revisions to the timing or the amount of the original estimate.

Environmental Liabilities

Environmental Liabilities

     Accruals for environmental matters are recorded when it is probable a liability has been incurred and the amount of the liability can be reasonably estimated, based upon current law and existing technologies. These amounts, which are not discounted and are exclusive of claims against potentially responsible third parties, are adjusted periodically as assessment and remediation efforts progress or additional technical or legal information becomes available. Environmental exposures are difficult to assess for numerous reasons, including the identification of new sites, developments at sites resulting from investigatory studies and remedial activities, advances in technology, changes in environmental laws and regulations and their application, the scarcity of reliable data pertaining to identified sites, the difficulty in assessing the involvement and financial capability of other potentially responsible parties and the Company's ability to obtain contributions from other parties, and the lengthy time periods over which site remediation occurs. It is possible some of these matters (the outcomes of which are subject to various uncertainties) may be resolved unfavorably against the Company, and could materially affect operating results when resolved in future periods.

Financial Instruments

Financial Instruments

     The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximated their fair value due to the short-term nature of these instruments.

Stock-Based Compensation

Stock-Based Compensation

     All stock-based compensation awards are expensed over their vesting period, based on fair value. For awards that have a service only vesting condition, the Company recognizes stock-based compensation expense on a straight-line basis over the requisite service periods. For awards with a performance vesting condition, which are subject to certain pre-established performance targets, the Company recognizes stock-based compensation expense on a graded-vesting basis to the extent it is probable the performance targets will be met. The fair value for stock options is determined using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model, while the fair values of deferred stock units and restricted stock are based on the market price of the Company's Common Stock, all on the date the stock-based awards are granted.

Revenue Recognition

Revenue Recognition

     The Company recognizes revenue when products are shipped and the customer takes ownership and assumes risk of loss, collectability is reasonably assured, and the sales price is fixed or determinable. Sales taxes collected from customers and remitted to governmental authorities, which are not significant, are accounted for on a net basis and therefore are excluded from net sales in the Consolidated Statements of Income.

Shipping And Handling Costs

Shipping and Handling Costs

     The Company records shipping and handling costs within selling, general and administrative expenses. Such costs aggregated $36.4 million, $32.7 million and $24.6 million in the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

Legal Costs

Legal Costs

     The Company expenses all legal costs associated with litigation as incurred. Legal expenses are included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the Consolidated Statements of Income.

Fair Value Measurements

Fair Value Measurements

     Fair value is determined using a hierarchy that has three levels based on the reliability of the inputs used to determine fair value. Level 1 refers to fair values determined based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets. Level 2 refers to fair values estimated using significant other observable inputs, and Level 3 includes fair values estimated using significant unobservable inputs.

Use Of Estimates

Use of Estimates

     The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires the Company to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, net sales and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an ongoing basis, the Company evaluates its estimates, including, but not limited to, those related to product returns, sales and purchase rebates, accounts receivable, inventories, goodwill and other intangible assets, income taxes, warranty obligations, self-insurance obligations, lease terminations, asset retirement obligations, long-lived assets, executive succession, post-retirement benefits, stock-based compensation, segment allocations, contingent consideration, environmental liabilities, contingencies and litigation. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience, other available information and various other assumptions believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other resources. Actual results and events could differ significantly from management estimates.

10. INCOME TAXES

     The provision for income taxes in the Consolidated Statements of Income was as follows for the years ended December 31:

(In thousands)		2013		2012			2011
Current:
Federal	$	23,430	$	17,483		$	13,875
State		4,129		3,647			3,501
Total current provision	$	27,559	$	21,130		$	17,376

Total deferred provision	$	269	$	(668	)	$	821
Provision for income taxes	$	27,828	$	20,462		$	18,197

     The provision for income taxes differs from the amount computed by applying the federal statutory rate to income before income taxes for the following reasons for the years ended December 31:

(In thousands)		2013			2012			2011
Income tax at federal statutory rate	$	27,281		$	20,231		$	16,889
State income taxes, net of federal income
tax impact		2,815			2,130			2,426
Manufacturing credit pursuant to Jobs
Creation Act		(1,444	)		(1,101	)		(828	)
Other		(824	)		(798	)		(290	)
Provision for income taxes	$	27,828		$	20,462		$	18,197

     At December 31, 2013, federal and state income taxes receivable of $3.7 million were included in prepaid expenses and other current assets. At December 31, 2012, federal income taxes receivable of $2.7 million were included in prepaid expenses and other current assets, and state income taxes payable of $0.2 million were included in accrued expenses and other current liabilities.

     The tax effects of temporary differences that give rise to significant portions of the deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities were as follows at December 31:

(In thousands)		2013			2012
Deferred tax assets:
Goodwill and other intangible assets	$	15,024		$	15,768
Stock-based compensation		5,116			4,272
Deferred compensation		3,722			2,713
Warranty		3,477			2,423
Inventory		3,245			3,248
Other		4,048			2,911
Total deferred tax assets		34,632			31,335
Deferred tax liabilities:
Fixed assets		(9,839	)		(6,269	)
Net deferred tax assets	$	24,793		$	25,066

     The Company concluded it is more likely than not that the deferred tax assets at December 31, 2013 will be realized in the ordinary course of operations based on projected future taxable income and scheduling of deferred tax liabilities.

     Excess tax benefits on stock-based compensation of $1.5 million, $0.3 million and $0.2 million were credited directly to stockholders' equity during the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively, relating to tax benefits which exceeded the compensation cost for stock-based compensation recognized in the Consolidated Financial Statements.

     In 2011, the Company reversed $2.5 million of deferred tax assets related to the expiration of vested stock options granted in prior years. This reversal was recorded as a reduction of stockholders' equity, against the pool of available excess tax benefits from prior exercises of stock-based compensation. At December 31, 2013, the remaining pool of excess tax benefits from prior exercises of stock-based compensation in stockholders' equity was $11.3 million.

Unrecognized Tax Benefits

The following table reconciles the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits, at December 31:

(In thousands)		2013			2012			2011
Balance at beginning of period	$	1,701		$	2,185		$	2,213
Changes in tax positions of prior years		(29	)		(297	)		(341	)
Additions based on tax positions
related to the current year		676			385			313
Payments		(126	)		-			-
Closure of tax years		(853	)		(572	)		-
Balance at end of period	$	1,369		$	1,701		$	2,185

     In addition, the total amount of accrued interest and penalties related to taxes was $0.2 million, $0.4 million and $0.6 million at December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

     The total amount of unrecognized tax benefits, net of federal income tax benefits, of $1.0 million, $1.2 million and $1.6 million at December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively, would, if recognized, increase the Company's earnings, and lower the Company's annual effective tax rate in the year of recognition.

     The Company periodically undergoes examinations by the Internal Revenue Service ("IRS"), as well as various state taxing authorities. The IRS and other taxing authorities may challenge certain deductions and positions reported by the Company on its income tax returns. For federal income tax purposes, the tax years 2011 and 2012 remain subject to examination. For Indiana state income tax purposes, the tax years 2010 through 2012 remain subject to examination. Approximately 80 percent of the Company's operations are located in Indiana.

     The Company has assessed its risks associated with all tax return positions, and believes its tax reserve estimates reflect its best estimate of the deductions and positions it will be able to sustain, or it may be willing to concede as part of a settlement. At this time, the Company cannot estimate the range of reasonably possible change in its tax reserve estimates in 2014. While these tax matters could materially affect operating results when resolved in future periods, it is management's opinion that after final disposition, any monetary liability or financial impact to the Company beyond that provided for in the Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2013, would not be material to the Company's financial position or annual results of operations.

Commitments And Contingencies

11. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Leases

     The Company's lease commitments are primarily for real estate, machinery and equipment, and vehicles. The significant real estate leases provide for renewal options and require the Company to pay for property taxes and all other costs associated with the leased property.

     Future minimum lease payments under operating leases at December 31, 2013 are as follows (in thousands):

2014	$	3,496
2015		2,518
2016		2,101
2017		1,867
2018		1,666
Thereafter		3,605
Total minimum lease payments	$	15,253

     In January 2014, the Company entered into a nine year operating lease with aggregate minimum lease payments of $6.1 million to consolidate manufacturing operations for efficiency improvements and expand capacity for its furniture and mattress operations.

     Rent expense for operating leases was $7.1 million, $5.6 million and $5.4 million for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

Contingent Consideration

     In connection with several business acquisitions, if certain sales targets for the acquired products are achieved, the Company would pay additional cash consideration. The Company has recorded a liability for the fair value of this contingent consideration at December 31, 2013 and 2012, based on the present value of the expected future cash flows using a market participant's weighted average cost of capital of 15.5 percent and 14.9 percent, respectively.

The following table summarizes the contingent consideration liability as of December 31, 2013:

			Fair Value of
		Estimated		Estimated
		Remaining		Remaining
Acquisition (In thousands)		Payments		Payments
Schwintek products	$	5,188	(a) $	3,871
Level-Up® six-point leveling system		4,033	(b)	3,327
Other acquired products		240	(c)	216
Total	$	9,461	$	7,414

(a)	The remaining contingent consideration for two of the three products expires in March 2014. Contingent consideration for the remaining product will cease five years after the product is first sold to customers. Two of the three products acquired have a combined remaining maximum contingent consideration of $4.4 million, of which the Company estimates $2.1 million will be paid. Other than expiration of the contingent consideration period, the remaining product has no maximum contingent consideration.
(b)	Other than expiration of the contingent consideration period in February 2016, this product has no maximum contingent consideration.
(c)	Contingent consideration expires at various dates through November 2025. Certain of these products have a combined remaining maximum contingent consideration of $3.1 million, while the remaining products have no maximum contingent consideration.

     As required, the liability for this contingent consideration is measured at fair value quarterly, considering actual sales of the acquired products, updated sales projections, and the updated market participant weighted average cost of capital. Depending upon the weighted average costs of capital and future sales of the products which are subject to contingent consideration, the Company could record adjustments in future periods.

     The following table provides a reconciliation of the Company's contingent consideration liability for the years ended December 31:

(a) Recorded in selling, general and administrative expense in the Consolidated Statements of Income.

Litigation

     In the normal course of business, the Company is subject to proceedings, lawsuits and other claims. All such matters are subject to uncertainties and outcomes that are not predictable with assurance. While these matters could materially affect operating results when resolved in future periods, it is management's opinion after final disposition, including anticipated insurance recoveries in certain cases, any monetary liability or financial impact to the Company beyond that provided in the Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2013, would not be material to the Company's financial position or annual results of operations.

Executive Succession and Severance

     On May 10, 2013, Fredric M. Zinn retired as President and Chief Executive Officer of Drew. Jason D. Lippert, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Lippert Components, succeeded Mr. Zinn as Chief Executive Officer of Drew. Scott T. Mereness, President of Lippert Components, succeeded Mr. Zinn as President of Drew. In June 2013, the Company also relocated its corporate headquarters from White Plains, New York to Elkhart County, Indiana, the location of the corporate headquarters of Lippert Components.

     In connection with the Company's executive succession and corporate relocation, the Company recorded pre-tax charges of $1.5 million in the fourth quarter of 2012 and $1.9 million in the first six months of 2013, related to contractual obligations for severance and the acceleration of equity awards held by certain employees whose employment terminated as a result of the executive succession and relocation to Indiana. No charges were recorded in the second half of 2013, and no other related charges are expected. The liability for executive succession and severance obligations will be paid through 2015. During the third quarter of 2013, the transition and corporate office relocation were completed. As a result, the Company expects to save an estimated $2 million annually in general and administrative costs.

     Unrelated to the executive succession, the Company incurred severance and relocation costs of $0.5 million, $0.2 million, and $0.1 million during the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively, which were recorded in selling, general and administrative expenses in the Consolidated Statements of Income.

     The liability for executive succession and severance obligations, which will be paid through 2015, was recorded as follows at December 31:

(In thousands)		2013		2012		2011
Other accrued expenses and current liabilities	$	1,064	$	1,778	$	449
Other long-term liabilities		315		671		1,028

Stockholders' Equity [Abstract]

Stockholders' Equity

12. STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY

Special Dividend

     On January 6, 2014, a special dividend of $2.00 per share of the Company's Common Stock, representing an aggregate of $46.7 million, was paid to stockholders of record as of December 20, 2013. On December 20, 2012, a special dividend of $2.00 per share of the Company's Common Stock, representing an aggregate of $45.0 million, was paid to stockholders of record as of December 10, 2012. In connection with these special dividends, holders of deferred stock units, restricted stock and stock awards were credited with deferred stock units, restricted stock or stock equal to $2.00 per deferred stock unit, restricted stock or stock, representing $1.4 million in total for each special dividend. In connection with these special cash dividends, the exercise price of all outstanding stock options was reduced by $2.00 per share. These reductions in exercise price were made pursuant to the terms of the outstanding awards, resulting in no incremental stock-based compensation expense.

Stock-Based Awards

     Pursuant to the Drew Industries Incorporated Equity Award and Incentive Plan, as Amended and Restated (the "Equity Plan"), which was approved by stockholders in May 2011, the Company may grant to its directors, employees, and other eligible persons Common Stock-based awards, such as stock options, restricted stock and deferred stock units. All such awards granted under the Equity Plan must be approved by the Compensation Committee of Drew's Board of Directors (the "Committee"). The Committee determines the period for which all such awards may be exercisable, but in no event may such an award be exercisable more than 10 years from the date of grant. The number of shares available under the Equity Plan, and the exercise price of all such awards granted under the Equity Plan, are subject to adjustments by the Committee to reflect stock splits, dividends, recapitalization, mergers, or other major corporate actions. The number of shares available for granting awards was 246,368, 688,712 and 1,361,718 at December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

Stock-based compensation resulted in charges to operations as follows for the years ended December 31:

(In thousands)		2013		2012		2011
Stock options	$	2,325	$	2,836	$	3,218
Deferred stock units		5,425		1,888		1,264
Restricted stock		911		849		105
Stock awards		2,178		745		-
Stock-based compensation expense	$	10,839	$	6,318	$	4,587

     Stock-based compensation expense is recorded in the Consolidated Statements of Income in the same line that cash compensation to those employees is recorded, primarily in selling, general and administrative expenses.

In addition, for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, the Company issued deferred stock units to certain executive officers in lieu of cash for a portion of prior year incentive compensation, in accordance with their compensation arrangements, of $0.1 million, $0.2 million and $1.1 million, respectively. In February 2014, the Company issued 43,188 deferred stock units at $45.98 per share, or $2.0 million, to certain officers in lieu of cash for a portion of their 2013 salary and incentive compensation in accordance with their compensation arrangements.

     The fair value of each stock option grant was estimated on the date of the grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions:

		2011
Risk-free interest rate		0.71	%
Expected volatility		55.20	%
Expected life		4.1 years
Contractual life		6.0 years
Dividend yield		N/A
Fair value of stock options granted	$	10.02

     The fair value of deferred stock units, restricted stock and stock grants was the market price of the Company's Common Stock on the grant date.

Stock Options

     The Equity Plan provides for the grant of stock options that qualify as incentive stock options under Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code, and non-qualified stock options. The exercise price for stock options granted under the Equity Plan must be at least equal to 100 percent of the fair market value of the shares subject to such stock option on the date of grant. The exercise price may be paid in cash or in shares of the Company's Common Stock which have been held for a minimum of six months. Historically, upon exercise of stock options, new shares have been issued instead of using treasury shares.

     Outstanding stock options expire six years from the date of grant, and either vest ratably over the service period of five years for employees or, for certain executive officers, based on achievement of specified performance conditions. As a result of the Company's executive succession and corporate relocation, the vesting of certain stock options was accelerated pursuant to contractual obligations with certain employees whose employment terminated as a result of the relocation to Indiana.

Transactions in stock options under the Equity Plan are summarized as follows:

The weighted average remaining term for option shares outstanding and option shares exercisable is 2.7 years and 2.2 years, respectively. Recorded in selling, general and administrative expense in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

     As of December 31, 2013, there was $2.7 million of total unrecognized compensation costs related to unvested stock options, which are expected to be recognized over a weighted average remaining period of 2.4 years.

Deferred Stock Units

     The Equity Plan provides for the grant or issuance of deferred stock units ("DSUs") to directors, employees and other eligible persons. Recipients of DSUs are entitled to receive shares at the end of a specified deferral period. Holders of DSUs receive dividends granted to holders of the Common Stock, payable in additional DSUs, and are subject to the same vesting criteria as the original grant.

     DSUs vest (i) ratably over the service period, (ii) at a specified future date, or (iii) for certain officers, based on achievement of specified performance conditions. As a result of the Company's executive succession and corporate relocation, the vesting of certain deferred stock units was accelerated pursuant to contractual obligations with certain employees whose employment terminated as a result of the relocation to Indiana. In addition, DSUs are issued in lieu of cash compensation.

Transactions in DSUs under the Equity Plan are summarized as follows:

	Number of
	Shares			Stock Price
Outstanding at December 31, 2010	266,216		$	5.50- $40.68

Exercised	(89,211	)	$	20.20- $30.65
Outstanding at December 31, 2013	692,961		$	6.16- $50.85

     As of December 31, 2013, there was $8.9 million of total unrecognized compensation costs related to DSUs, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted average remaining period of 2.3 years.

Restricted Stock

     The Equity Plan provides for the grant of restricted stock to directors, employees and other eligible persons. The restriction period is established by the Committee, but may not be less than one year. Holders of restricted stock have all the rights of a stockholder of the Company, including the right to vote and the right to receive dividends granted to holders of the Common Stock, payable in additional shares of restricted stock, and subject to the same vesting criteria as the original grant. All shares of restricted stock are not transferable during the restriction period, which lapses one year from the date of grant. Restricted stock grants, which were all made to directors, were as follows (in thousands except share and per share amounts):

		2013		2012		2011
Granted		17,885		29,841		36,260
Stock price	$	50.89	$	30.50	$	23.17
Fair value of stock granted	$	910	$	910	$	840

     As of December 31, 2013, there was $0.8 million of total unrecognized compensation costs related to restricted stock, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted average remaining period of 0.9 years.

Stock Awards

     In accordance with the Executive Employment and Non-Competition Agreements for 2012 – 2014 with two of the Company's named executive officers, they are entitled to receive an annual long-term award consisting of the right to earn an aggregate of 85,000 shares of Common Stock. In accordance with compensation arrangements for 2013 – 2014 with certain other officers of the Company, they are entitled to receive an annual long-term award consisting of the right to earn an aggregate of 18,500 shares of the Common Stock. All of these shares are earned during the subsequent three year period based on growth in the Company's earnings per diluted share over that same three year period. As of December 31, 2013, there was $2.9 million of total unrecognized compensation costs related to outstanding stock awards, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted average remaining period of 1.8 years. The grant date fair value of the January 1, 2014 awards was $5.2 million.

Weighted Average Common Shares Outstanding

     The following reconciliation details the denominator used in the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share for the years ended December 31:

(In thousands)	2013	2012	2011
Weighted average shares outstanding
for basic earnings per share	23,321	22,558	22,267
Common stock equivalents pertaining
to stock options and deferred
stock units	432	270	177
Weighted average shares outstanding
for diluted earnings per share	23,753	22,828	22,444

     The weighted average diluted shares outstanding for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, exclude the effect of 303,240, 426,788 and 1,311,330 shares of common stock, respectively, subject to stock options and deferred stock units. Such shares were excluded from total diluted shares because they were anti-dilutive or the specified performance conditions those shares were subject to were not yet achieved.

Treasury Stock

     In 2007, the Board of Directors authorized the Company to repurchase up to 1 million shares of the Company's Common Stock from time to time in the open market, in privately negotiated transactions, or in block trades. The number of shares ultimately repurchased, and the timing of the purchases, will depend upon market conditions, share price and other factors. Treasury stock transactions under this authorization were as follows (in thousands except share and per share amounts):

			Weighted
			Average Price
	Shares		Per Share		Cost
Purchases through 2010	501,279	$	18.70	$	9,374
Purchases in 2011	33,856	$	18.44	$	626
Total purchases	535,135	$	18.64	$	10,000

Deferred Compensation Plan

     The Company has an Executive Non-Qualified Deferred Compensation Plan (the "Plan"). Pursuant to the Plan, certain management employees are eligible to defer all or a portion of their regular salary and incentive compensation. Participants deferred $1.7 million, $1.9 million and $2.0 million during the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively. The amounts deferred under this Plan are credited with earnings or losses based upon changes in values of the notional investments elected by the Plan participants. Each Plan participant is fully vested in their deferred compensation and earnings credited to his or her account as all contributions to the Plan are made by the participant. The Company is responsible for certain costs of Plan administration, which are not significant, and will not make any contributions to the Plan. Pursuant to the Plan, payments to the Plan participants are made from the general unrestricted assets of the Company, and the Company's obligations pursuant to the Plan are unfunded and unsecured. Participants withdrew $0.2 million and $0.6 million from the Plan during the years ended December 31, 2013, and 2011, respectively. There were no participant withdrawals in 2012. At December 31, 2013 and 2012, deferred compensation of $9.4 million and $7.0 million, respectively, was recorded in other long-term liabilities, and at December 31, 2013, deferred compensation of $0.2 million was recorded in accrued expenses and other current liabilities.

Long-Term Indebtedness

9. LONG-TERM INDEBTEDNESS

The Company had no debt outstanding at December 31, 2013 and 2012.

     The Company has a $50.0 million line of credit (the "Credit Agreement") with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. and Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. (collectively, the "Lenders"). The maximum borrowings under the Company's line of credit can be increased by $20.0 million upon approval of the Lenders. Interest on borrowings under the line of credit is designated from time to time by the Company as either (i) the Prime Rate, but not less than 2.5 percent, plus additional interest up to 0.8 percent (0 percent at December 31, 2013 and 2012), or (ii) LIBOR plus additional interest ranging from 2.0 percent to 2.8 percent (2.0 percent at December 31, 2013 and 2012) depending on the Company's performance and financial condition. The Credit Agreement, which was scheduled to expire on January 1, 2016, was amended and extended on February 24, 2014, and now expires on January 1, 2019. In connection with this amendment, the line of credit was increased to $75.0 million. At December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company had $2.2 million and $3.0 million, respectively in outstanding letters of credit under the line of credit. Availability under the Company's line of credit was $47.8 million at December 31, 2013.

     The Company also has a $150.0 million "shelf-loan" facility with Prudential Investment Management, Inc. and its affiliates ("Prudential"). The facility provides for Prudential to consider purchasing, at the Company's request, in one or a series of transactions, Senior Promissory Notes of the Company in the aggregate principal amount of up to $150.0 million, to mature no more than twelve years after the date of original issue of each Senior Promissory Note. Prudential has no obligation to purchase the Senior Promissory Notes. Interest payable on the Senior Promissory Notes will be at rates determined by Prudential within five business days after the Company issues a request to Prudential. At December 31, 2013 and 2012, there were no Senior Promissory Notes outstanding. This facility, which was scheduled to expire on February 24, 2014, was amended and extended on February 24, 2014, and now expires on February 24, 2017.

     Both the line of credit pursuant to the Credit Agreement and the "shelf-loan" facility are subject to a maximum leverage ratio covenant which limits the amount of consolidated outstanding indebtedness to 2.5 times the trailing twelve-month EBITDA, as defined. This limitation did not impact the Company's borrowing availability at December 31, 2013. The remaining availability under these facilities was $197.8 million at December 31, 2013. The Company believes the availability under the amended line of credit and "shelf-loan" facility, together with the $66.3 million in cash at December 31, 2013, is more than adequate to finance the Company's anticipated cash requirements for 2014.

     Pursuant to the Credit Agreement and "shelf-loan" facility, at December 31, 2013 and 2012 the Company was required to maintain minimum interest and fixed charge coverages, and to meet certain other financial requirements. At December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company was in compliance with all such requirements, and expects to remain in compliance during 2014.

     Borrowings under both the line of credit and the "shelf-loan" facility are secured on a pari-passu basis by first priority liens on the capital stock or other equity interests of each of the Company's direct and indirect subsidiaries.

Fair Value Measurements

13. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

Recurring

     The following table presents the Company's assets and liabilities that were measured at fair value on a recurring basis at December 31:

					2013								2012
(In thousands)			Total		Level 1		Level 2		Level 3		Total		Level 1		Level 2		Level 3

Total liabilities	$	17,087		$	9,673	$	-	$	7,414	$	18,534	$	7,015	$	-	$	11,519

Deferred Compensation

     The Company has an Executive Non-Qualified Deferred Compensation Plan (the "Plan"). The amounts deferred under the Plan are credited with earnings or losses based upon changes in values of the notional investments elected by the Plan participants. The Company invests 65 percent of the amounts deferred by the Plan participants in life insurance contracts, matching the investments elected by the Plan participants. Deferred compensation assets and liabilities were valued using a market approach based on the quoted market prices of identical instruments. For further information on deferred compensation, see Note 8 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

Contingent Consideration Related to Acquisitions

     Liabilities for contingent consideration related to acquisitions were valued using management's projections for long-term sales forecasts, including assumptions regarding market share gains and future industry-specific economic and market conditions, and a market participant's weighted average cost of capital. Over the next three years, the Company's long-term sales growth forecasts for products subject to contingent consideration arrangements average approximately 25 percent per year. For further information on the inputs used in determining the fair value, and a roll-forward of the contingent consideration liability, see Note 11 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

     Changes in either of the inputs in isolation would result in a change in the fair value measurement. A change in the assumptions used for sales forecasts would result in a directionally similar change in the fair value liability, while a change in the weighted average cost of capital would result in a directionally opposite change in the fair value liability. If there is an increase in the fair value liability, the Company would record a charge to selling, general and administrative expenses, and if there is a decrease in the fair value liability, the Company would record a benefit in selling, general and administrative expenses.

Derivative Instruments

     At December 31, 2013, the Company had no derivative instruments outstanding. While outstanding, these derivative instruments were considered to be economic hedges of the underlying movement in the price of aluminum, but were not designated or accounted for as a hedge. These derivative instruments were valued at fair value using a market approach based on the quoted market prices of similar instruments at the end of each reporting period, and the resulting net gain or loss was recorded in cost of sales in the Consolidated Statements of Income. At December 31, 2012, the $0.2 million corresponding asset was recorded in prepaid expenses and other current assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. During 2013, derivative instruments for 4.7 million pounds of aluminum were settled at a loss of $0.3 million, which was recorded in cost of sales in the Consolidated Statements of Income.

Non-recurring

     The following table presents the carrying value on the measurement date of any assets and liabilities which were measured at fair value and recorded at the lower of cost or fair value, on a non-recurring basis, using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3), and the corresponding non-recurring losses recognized during the years ended December 31:

				2013				2012				2011

Vacant Owned Facilities

     During 2013, 2012 and 2011, the Company reviewed the recoverability of the carrying value of its vacant owned facilities. The determination of fair value was based on the best information available, including internal cash flow estimates, market prices for similar assets, broker quotes and independent appraisals, as appropriate.

     During 2013, the fair value of two vacant owned facilities did not exceed its carrying value; therefore an impairment charge of $0.1 million was recorded in selling, general and administrative expenses in the Consolidated Statements of Income. A sale agreement has been signed on one facility, with closing scheduled for the first quarter of 2014. During 2013, the Company sold one of the facilities previously recorded as a vacant facility and reopened two facilities. At December 31, 2013, the Company had three vacant owned facilities, with an estimated combined fair value of $3.6 million and a combined carrying value of $3.2 million, including the one scheduled for closing in the first quarter of 2014, classified in fixed assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

     During 2012, the carrying value of five vacant owned facilities exceeded their fair value; therefore an impairment charge of $0.5 million was recorded. During 2012, the Company sold at a gain of $0.8 million two of the facilities previously recorded as vacant facilities and reopened another. At December 31, 2012, the Company had four vacant owned facilities, with a combined carrying value of $5.0 million, classified in fixed assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

     During 2011, the fair value of six vacant owned facilities exceeded their carrying value; therefore no impairment charges were recorded. At December 31, 2011, the Company had six vacant owned facilities with a combined carrying value of $10.0 million, classified in fixed assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Other Intangible Assets

     During 2012, the Company reviewed the recoverability of amortizable intangible assets associated with an acquired patent. Based on the analyses, the $1.2 million carrying value of these intangible assets exceeded the undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated. As a result, the Company was required to determine the fair value of these intangible assets. Fair value was determined based on the present value of internal cash flow estimates. The resulting fair value of these intangible assets was nominal, therefore the Company recorded a non-cash impairment charge of $1.2 million, of which $1.0 million was recorded in cost of sales in the Consolidated Statements of Income.

Net Assets of Acquired Businesses

     The Company valued the assets and liabilities associated with the acquisitions of businesses on the respective acquisition dates. Depending upon the type of asset or liability acquired, the Company used different valuation techniques in determining the fair value. Those techniques included comparable market prices, long-term sales, profitability and cash flow forecasts, assumptions regarding future industry-specific economic and market conditions, a market participant's weighted average cost of capital, as well as other techniques as circumstances required. For further information on acquired assets and liabilities, see Note 3 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

Vacant Leased Facilities

     The Company recorded charges of $0.1 million and $0.2 million for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively, in selling, general and administrative expenses in the Consolidated Statements of Income related to the exit from leased facilities.
