NOTES TO UNAUDITED
CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

A. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited, interim, consolidated, condensed financial statements (the “Financial Statements”) include our accounts and those of our wholly-owned and majority-owned subsidiaries and partnerships, and have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Accordingly, the Financial Statements do not include all of the information and footnotes normally included in the annual consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.

In our opinion, the Financial Statements contain all material adjustments necessary to present fairly our consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. These Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the annual consolidated financial statements, and footnotes thereto, included in our Annual Report to Shareholders on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 27, 2008.

Effective at the beginning of the fiscal year ending December 26, 2009, we adopted Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 810, Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements (“ASC 810”). ASC 810 establishes new accounting and reporting standards for the noncontrolling interest in a subsidiary and for the deconsolidation of a subsidiary. Specifically, this statement requires the recognition of a noncontrolling interest (minority interest) as equity in the consolidated financial statements and separate from the parent’s equity. The amount of net income attributable to the noncontrolling interest will be included in consolidated net income on the face of the income statement. ASC 810 clarifies that changes in a parent’s ownership interest in a subsidiary that do not result in deconsolidation are equity transactions if the parent retains its controlling financial interest. In addition, this statement requires that a parent recognize a gain or loss in net income when a subsidiary is deconsolidated. Such gain or loss will be measured using the fair value of the noncontrolling equity investment on the deconsolidation date. ASC 810 also includes expanded disclosure requirements regarding the interests of the parent and its noncontrolling interest. The adoption of ASC 810 did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

Effective at the beginning of the fiscal year ending December 26, 2009, we adopted ASC 260, Determining Whether Instruments Granted in Share-Based Payment Transactions are Participating Securities (“ASC 260”). ASC 260 clarifies that unvested share-based payment awards with a right to receive nonforfeitable dividends are participating securities and also provides guidance on how to allocate earnings to participating securities and compute basic earnings per share using the two-class method. The adoption of ASC 260 impacts our Executive Stock Grant Plan and it had no impact on our earnings per share calculation.

Subsequent events have been evaluated through our filing date October 21, 2009.

UNIVERSAL FOREST PRODUCTS, INC.

B. FAIR VALUE

Effective at the beginning of the fiscal year ended December 27, 2008, we adopted ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements (“ASC 820”). This new standard establishes a framework for measuring the fair value of assets and liabilities. This framework is intended to provide increased consistency in how fair value determinations are made under various existing accounting standards which permit, or in some cases require, estimates of fair market value. ASC 820 also expands financial statement disclosure requirements about a company’s use of fair value measurements, including the effect of such measures on earnings. The adoption has not had a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

Effective at the beginning of the fiscal year ended December 26, 2009, we adopted the nonfinancial asset and liability provisions of ASC 820 that were previously deferred by the standard.

Assets and liabilities measured at fair value are as follows:

	September 26, 2009						September 27, 2008
			Quoted		Prices				Quoted		Prices
			Prices in		with Other				Prices in		with Other
			Active		Observable				Active		Observable
			Markets		Inputs				Markets		Inputs
(in thousands)	Total		(Level 1)		(Level 2)		Total		(Level 1)		(Level 2)
Assets:
Trading marketable securities	$	813	$	813			$	4,544	$	4,544
Assets held for sale								410			$	410
Property, plant and equipment		1,350			$	1,350		1,205				1,205
	$	2,163	$	813	$	1,350	$	6,159	$	4,544	$	1,615

Effective at the beginning of the fiscal year ended December 27, 2008, we adopted ASC 825, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities (“ASC 825”). ASC 825 allows companies to choose to measure certain financial instruments and certain other items at fair value. The statement requires that unrealized gains and losses are reported in earnings for items measured using the fair value option and establishes presentation and disclosure requirements. We have elected not to apply the fair value option to any of our financial instruments except for those expressly required by U.S. GAAP.

C. REVENUE RECOGNITION

Earnings on construction contracts are reflected in operations using either percentage-of-completion accounting, which includes the cost to cost and units of delivery methods, or completed contract accounting, depending on the nature of the business at individual operations. Under percentage-of-completion using the cost to cost method, revenues and related earnings on construction contracts are measured by the relationships of actual costs incurred related to the total estimated costs. Under percentage-of-completion using the units of delivery method, revenues and related earnings on construction contracts are measured by the relationships of actual units produced related to the total number of units. Revisions in earnings estimates on the construction contracts are recorded in the accounting period in which the basis for such revisions becomes known. Projected losses on individual contracts are charged to operations in their entirety when such losses become apparent. Under the completed contract method, revenues and related earnings are recorded when the contracted work is complete and losses are charged to operations in their entirety when such losses become apparent.

The following table presents the balances of percentage-of-completion accounts which are included in “Other current assets” and “Accrued liabilities: Other”, respectively (in thousands):

	September 26,		December 27,		September 27,
	2009		2008		2008
Cost and Earnings in Excess of Billings	$	11,117	$	7,934	$	20,755
Billings in Excess of Cost and Earnings		7,027		5,882		13,752

D. EARNINGS PER SHARE

A reconciliation of the changes in the numerator and the denominator from the calculation of basic EPS to the calculation of diluted EPS follows (in thousands, except per share data):

	Three Months Ended September 26, 2009						Three Months Ended September 27, 2008
	Income		Shares		Per Share		Loss			Shares		Per Share
	(Numerator)		(Denominator)		Amount		(Numerator)			(Denominator)		Amount
Net Earnings (Loss) Attributable to Controlling Interest	$	10,054					$	(1,951	)

	Income		Shares		Per Share		Income		Shares		Per Share
	(Numerator)		(Denominator)		Amount		(Numerator)		(Denominator)		Amount
Net Earnings Attributable to Controlling Interest	$	24,935					$	5,136

EPS — Diluted
Income available to common stockholders and assumed options exercised	$	24,935		19,442	$	1.28	$	5,136		19,233	$	0.27

No outstanding options were excluded from the computation of diluted EPS for the quarter ended September 26, 2009.

Options to purchase 10,000 shares of common stock were not included in the computation of diluted EPS for the nine months ended September 26, 2009 because the options’ exercise price was greater than the average market price of the common stock during the period and, therefore would be antidilutive.

Options to purchase shares and certain other shares of common stock were not included in the computation of diluted EPS because they were antidilutive given the net loss for the quarter ended September 27, 2008.

Options to purchase 30,000 shares of common stock were not included in the computation of diluted EPS for the nine months ended September 27, 2008 because the options’ exercise price was greater than the average market price of the common stock during the period and, therefore would be antidilutive.

• We sold specific receivables to the bank at an agreed-upon price at terms ranging from one month to one year.

• We serviced the receivables sold and outstanding on behalf of the bank at a rate of 0.50% per annum.

• We received an incentive servicing fee, which we account for as a retained interest in the receivables sold. Our retained interest is determined based on the fair market value of anticipated collections in excess of the Agreed Base Value of the receivables sold. Appropriate valuation allowances are recorded against the retained interest.

• The maximum amount of receivables, net of retained interest, which may be sold and outstanding at any point in time under this arrangement was $50 million.

No receivables were outstanding as of September 26, 2009 and September 27, 2008. A summary of the transactions we completed for the first nine months of 2008 are presented below (in thousands).

F. ASSETS HELD FOR SALE AND NET (GAIN) LOSS ON DISPOSITION OF ASSETS AND OTHER IMPAIRMENTS AND EXIT CHARGES

Included in “Assets held for sale” on our Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets are certain property, plant and equipment totaling $3.1 million on September 26, 2009 and $11.9 million on September 27, 2008. The assets held for sale consist of certain vacant land and several facilities we closed to better align manufacturing capacity with the current business environment. The fair values were determined based on appraisals or recent offers to acquire the assets. These and other idle assets were evaluated based on the requirements of ASC 360, which resulted in certain impairment and other exit charges. “Net (gain) loss on disposition of assets and other impairment and exit charges” consists of the following amounts, separated by reporting segment, for the periods presented below (in millions):

G. COMMITMENTS, CONTINGENCIES, AND GUARANTEES

We are self-insured for environmental impairment liability, including certain liabilities which are insured through a wholly owned subsidiary, UFP Insurance Ltd., a licensed captive insurance company.

We own and operate a number of facilities throughout the United States that chemically treat lumber products. In connection with the ownership and operation of these and other real properties, and the disposal or treatment of hazardous or toxic substances, we may, under various federal, state, and local environmental laws, ordinances, and regulations, be potentially liable for removal and remediation costs, as well as other potential costs, damages, and expenses. Environmental reserves, calculated with no discount rate, have been established to cover remediation activities at our affiliates’ wood preservation facilities in Stockertown, PA; Elizabeth City, NC; Auburndale, FL; Gordon, PA; Janesville, WI; Medley, FL; and Ponce, PR. In addition, a reserve was established for our affiliate’s facility in Thornton, CA to remove certain lead containing materials which existed on the property at the time of purchase. During the second quarter, a subsidiary entered into a consent order with the State of Florida to conduct additional testing at the Auburndale, FL facility. We admitted no liability and the costs are not expected to be material.

13

UNIVERSAL FOREST PRODUCTS, INC.

On a consolidated basis, we have reserved approximately $4.4 million on September 26, 2009 and $4.4 million on September 27, 2008, representing the estimated costs to complete future remediation efforts. These amounts have not been reduced by an insurance receivable.

From time to time, various special interest environmental groups have petitioned certain states requesting restrictions on the use or disposal of CCA treated products. The wood preservation industry trade groups are working with the individual states and their regulatory agencies to provide an accurate, factual background which demonstrates that the present method of uses and disposal is scientifically supported. We market a modest amount of CCA treated products for permitted, non-residential applications.

We have not accrued for any potential loss related to the contingencies above. However, potential liabilities of this nature are not conducive to precise estimates and are subject to change.

In addition, on September 26, 2009, we were parties either as plaintiff or a defendant to a number of lawsuits and claims arising through the normal course of our business. In the opinion of management, our consolidated financial statements will not be materially affected by the outcome of these contingencies and claims.

On September 26, 2009, we had outstanding purchase commitments on capital projects of approximately $1.6 million.

We provide a variety of warranties for products we manufacture. Historically, warranty claims have not been material.

In certain cases we supply building materials and labor to site-built construction projects or we jointly bid on contracts with framing companies for such projects. In some instances we are required to post payment and performance bonds to insure the owner that the products and installation services are completed in accordance with our contractual obligations. We have agreed to indemnify the surety for claims made against the bonds. As of September 26, 2009, we had approximately $20.7 million in outstanding payment and performance bonds for projects in progress, which expire during the next two years. In addition, approximately $28.5 million in payment and performance bonds are outstanding for completed projects which are still under warranty.

We have entered into operating leases for certain personal property assets that include a guarantee of a portion of the residual value of the leased assets. If at the expiration of the initial lease term we do not exercise our option to purchase the leased assets and these assets are sold by the lessor for a price below a predetermined amount, we will reimburse the lessor for a certain portion of the shortfall. These operating leases will expire periodically over the next five years. The estimated maximum aggregate exposure of these guarantees is approximately $1.6 million.

14

UNIVERSAL FOREST PRODUCTS, INC.

On September 26, 2009, we had outstanding letters of credit totaling $34.7 million, primarily related to certain insurance contracts and industrial development revenue bonds as further described below.

In lieu of cash deposits, we provide irrevocable letters of credit in favor of our insurers to guarantee our performance under certain insurance contracts. We currently have irrevocable letters of credit outstanding totaling approximately $19.9 million for these types of insurance arrangements. We have reserves recorded on our balance sheet, in accrued liabilities, that reflect our expected future liabilities under these insurance arrangements.

We are required to provide irrevocable letters of credit in favor of the bond trustees for all of the industrial development revenue bonds that we have issued. These letters of credit guarantee principal and interest payments to the bondholders. We currently have irrevocable letters of credit outstanding totaling approximately $14.8 million related to our outstanding industrial development revenue bonds. These letters of credit have varying terms but may be renewed at the option of the issuing banks.

Certain wholly owned domestic subsidiaries have guaranteed the indebtedness of Universal Forest Products, Inc. in certain debt agreements, including the Series 2002-A Senior Notes and our revolving credit facility. The maximum exposure of these guarantees is limited to the indebtedness outstanding under these debt arrangements and this exposure will expire concurrent with the expiration of the debt agreements.

Many of our wood treating operations utilize “Subpart W” drip pads, defined as hazardous waste management units by the EPA. The rules regulating drip pads require that the pad be “closed” at the point that it is no longer intended to be used for wood treating operations or to manage hazardous waste. Closure involves identification and disposal of contaminants which are required to be removed from the facility. The cost of closure is dependent upon a number of factors including, but not limited to, identification and removal of contaminants, cleanup standards that vary from state to state, and the time period over which the cleanup would be completed. Based on our present knowledge of existing circumstances, it is considered probable that these costs will approximate $0.3 million. As a result, this amount is recorded in other long-term liabilities on September 26, 2009.

We did not enter into any new guarantee arrangements during the third quarter of 2009 which would require us to recognize a liability on our balance sheet.

I. SEGMENT REPORTING

ASC 280, Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information (“ASC 280”) defines operating segments as components of an enterprise about which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance.

Under the definition of a segment, our Eastern, Western and Consumer Products Divisions may be considered an operating segment of our business. Under ASC 280, segments may be aggregated if the segments have similar economic characteristics and if the nature of the products, distribution methods, customers and regulatory environments are similar. Based on this criteria, we have aggregated our Eastern and Western Divisions into one reporting segment. Our Consumer Products Division is included in the “All Other” column in the table below. Our divisions operate manufacturing and treating facilities throughout North America. A summary of results for the first nine months of 2009 and 2008 are presented below (in thousands).

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Included in this report are certain forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The forward-looking statements are based on the beliefs and assumptions of management, together with information available to us when the statements were made. Future results could differ materially from those included in such forward-looking statements as a result of, among other things, the factors set forth below and certain economic and business factors which may be beyond our control. Investors are cautioned that all forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainty. We also encourage you to read our Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission. That report includes “Risk Factors” that you should consider in connection with any decision to buy or sell our securities. We are pleased to present this overview of 2009.

OVERVIEW

Our results for the third quarter of 2009 were impacted by the following:

• Our overall unit sales decreased 18% due to weak demand in each of our markets. We believe we have gained additional share of the DIY/retail and industrial markets and maintained our share of the manufactured housing and site-built markets.

• National housing starts decreased approximately 36% in June through August of 2009, compared to the same periods of 2008, as a result of an excess supply of homes, tight credit conditions, and an increase in foreclosures.

• Consumer spending for large repair/remodel projects has decreased due to general economic conditions, among other factors, including weak home prices and decreased cost recovery for most types of upper-end home improvement projects. Consequently, the same store sales of “big box” home improvement retailers have declined by approximately 10%.

• Shipments of HUD code manufactured homes were down 37% in July of 2009, compared to the same period of 2008. Industry sales of modular homes have also continued to decline. Weak market conditions are due, in part, to an excess supply of site-built homes and foreclosures and tight credit conditions.

• The industrial market has declined due to the general weakening of the U.S. economy. We gained additional share of this market due, in part, to adding new concrete forming business.

• Our gross margin increased to 15.1% from 10.6% in 2008 due to the implementation of various cost reduction initiatives and the lower level of the Lumber Market.

18

UNIVERSAL FOREST PRODUCTS, INC.

• Our SG&A expenses are down approximately $6.8 million, or 12%, from the third quarter of 2008, due to our right-sizing efforts and plant consolidation actions we took last year, offset somewhat by an increase in incentive compensation expense.

• Our net interest costs decreased by $1.7 million, or 67%, as our interest-bearing debt declined from $167 million at the end of September of 2008 to $56 million at the end of September of 2009.

• We are pleased to report operating and investing cash flows totaling almost $114 million for the first nine months of 2009 due to improved profitability, effective working capital management, and reduced working capital requirements due to weak demand.

Route 2012

Since we discussed our Growth & Opportunity 2010 (“GO 2010”) goals in our annual report on form 10-K for the period ended December 30, 2006, industry and general economic conditions have significantly deteriorated. In addition, the Lumber Market has declined from an average of $388/MBF in 2005 to an average of $215/MBF in 2009; a 45% decline from when we first set our goals, which has adversely impacted our sales.

In place of our GO 2010 goals, we have a new four-year growth plan entitled “Route 2012,” which includes goals to be achieved by the end of our fiscal year 2012 including:

• Increase sales to $3 billion.

• Improve productivity by 15% through our Continuous Improvement initiative.

• Improve profitability by three hundred basis points through productivity improvements, cost reductions, and growth.

• Improve receivables cycles in our industrial, site-built and manufactured housing markets by 10% by reducing the amount of our receivables that are paid past the agreed upon due date.

• Improve inventory turnover by 10%.

IMPACT OF THE LUMBER MARKET ON OUR OPERATING RESULTS

We experience significant fluctuations in the cost of commodity lumber products from primary producers (“Lumber Market”). We generally price our products to pass lumber costs through to our customers so that our profitability is based on the value-added manufacturing, distribution, engineering, and other services we provide. As a result, our sales levels (and working capital requirements) are impacted by the lumber costs of our products. Lumber costs are a significant percentage of our cost of goods sold.

Our gross margins are impacted by both (1) the relative level of the Lumber Market (i.e. whether prices are higher or lower from comparative periods), and (2) the trend in the market price of lumber (i.e. whether the price of lumber is increasing or decreasing within a period or from period to period). Moreover, as explained below, our products are priced differently. Some of our products have fixed selling prices, while the selling prices of other products are indexed to the reported Lumber Market with a fixed dollar adder to cover conversion costs and profits. Consequently, the level and trend of the Lumber Market impact our products differently.

Below is a general description of the primary ways in which our products are priced.

• Products with fixed selling prices. These products include value-added products such as decking and fencing sold to DIY/retail customers, as well as trusses, wall panels and other components sold to the site-built construction market, and most industrial packaging products. Prices for these products are generally fixed at the time of the sales quotation for a specified period of time or are based upon a specific quantity. In order to maintain margins and reduce any exposure to adverse trends in the price of component lumber products, we attempt to lock in costs for these sales commitments with our suppliers. Also, the time period and quantity limitations generally allow us to re-price our products for changes in lumber costs from our suppliers.

• Products with selling prices indexed to the reported Lumber Market with a fixed dollar “adder” to cover conversion costs and profits. These products primarily include treated lumber, remanufactured lumber, and trusses sold to the manufactured housing industry. For these products, we estimate the customers’ needs and carry anticipated levels of inventory. Because lumber costs are incurred in advance of final sale prices, subsequent increases or decreases in the market price of lumber impact our gross margins. For these products, our margins are exposed to changes in the trend of lumber prices.

Changes in the trend of lumber prices have their greatest impact on the following products:

• Products with significant inventory levels with low turnover rates, whose selling prices are indexed to the Lumber Market. In other words, the longer the period of time these products remain in inventory, the greater the exposure to changes in the price of lumber. This would include treated lumber, which comprises approximately 12% of our total sales. This exposure is less significant with remanufactured lumber, trusses sold to the manufactured housing market, and other similar products, due to the higher rate of inventory turnover. We attempt to mitigate the risk associated with treated lumber through vendor consignment inventory programs. (Please refer to the “Risk Factors” section of our annual report on form 10-K, filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission.)

• Products with fixed selling prices sold under long-term supply arrangements, particularly those involving multi-family construction projects. We attempt to mitigate this risk through our purchasing practices by locking in costs.

21

UNIVERSAL FOREST PRODUCTS, INC.

In addition to the impact of the Lumber Market trends on gross margins, changes in the level of the market cause fluctuations in gross margins when comparing operating results from period to period. This is explained in the following example, which assumes the price of lumber has increased from period one to period two, with no changes in the trend within each period.

	Period 1			Period 2
Lumber cost	$	300		$	400
Conversion cost		50			50
= Product cost		350			450
Adder		50			50
= Sell price	$	400		$	500
Gross margin		12.5	%		10.0	%

As is apparent from the preceding example, the level of lumber prices does not impact our overall profits, but does impact our margins. Gross margins are negatively impacted during periods of high lumber prices; conversely, we experience margin improvement when lumber prices are relatively low.

GROSS SALES

We market, manufacture and engineer wood and wood-alternative products for the DIY/retail market, structural lumber products for the manufactured housing market, engineered wood components for the site-built construction market, and specialty wood packaging for various markets. We also provide framing services for the site-built construction market and various forms for concrete construction. Our strategic long-term sales objectives include:

• Diversifying our end market sales mix by increasing sales of specialty wood packaging to industrial users, increasing our penetration of the concrete forms market, increasing our sales of engineered wood components for custom home, multi-family and light commercial construction, and expanding our product lines in each of the markets we serve.

• Expanding geographically in our core businesses.

• Increasing sales of “value-added” products and framing services. Value-added product sales primarily consist of fencing, decking, lattice, and other specialty products sold to the DIY/retail market, specialty wood packaging, engineered wood components, and “wood alternative” products. Engineered wood components include roof trusses, wall panels, and floor systems. Wood alternative products consist primarily of composite wood and plastics. Although we consider the treatment of dimensional lumber with certain chemical preservatives a value-added process, treated lumber is not presently included in the value-added sales totals.

• Maximizing unit sales growth while achieving return on investment goals.

UNIVERSAL FOREST PRODUCTS, INC.

Gross sales in the third quarter of 2009 decreased 25% compared to the third quarter of 2008. We estimate that our unit sales decreased by 18% and overall selling prices decreased by 7% comparing the two periods. We estimate that our unit sales decreased 18% as a result of existing and closed facilities due to a decline in demand in each of the markets we serve. Our overall selling prices may fluctuate as a result of the Lumber Market (see “Historical Lumber Prices”) and competitive factors.

Gross sales in the first nine months of 2009 decreased 26% compared to the first nine months of 2008 resulting from an estimated decrease in units shipped of approximately 20%, while overall selling prices decreased by 6%. We estimate that our unit sales increased 1% as a result of business acquisitions and new plants, while our unit sales from existing and closed facilities decreased by 21% due to a decline in market demand.

Changes in our sales by market are discussed below.

DIY/Retail:

Gross sales to the DIY/retail market decreased 15% in the third quarter of 2009 compared to 2008 primarily due to an estimated 9% decrease in overall unit sales and an estimated 6% decrease in overall selling prices due to the Lumber Market. Unit sales declined due to the impact of the housing market on our retail customers whose business is closely correlated with single-family housing starts and a decline in consumer spending as evidenced by declines in same store sales reported by our “big box” customers. We believe that we achieved market share gains in 2009, which offset some of the impact of these adverse market conditions.

Gross sales to the DIY/retail market decreased 12% in the first nine months of 2009 compared to 2008 primarily due to an estimated 6% decrease in overall unit sales and an estimated 6% decrease in overall selling prices due to the Lumber Market. We estimate that our unit sales increased 1% as a result of acquisitions, while unit sales from existing and closed facilities decreased 7%. The decrease in unit sales is primarily due to the same factors mentioned in the paragraph above.

Site-Built Construction:

Gross sales to the site-built construction market decreased 43% in the third quarter of 2009 compared to 2008 due to an estimated 37% decrease in unit sales out of existing plants and an estimated 6% decrease in our average selling prices primarily due to the Lumber Market. National housing starts were off a reported 36% for June through August of 2009 compared to the same period of 2008.

UNIVERSAL FOREST PRODUCTS, INC.

Gross sales to the site-built construction market decreased 47% in the first nine months of 2009 compared to 2008, due to an estimated 38% decrease in unit sales and an estimated 9% decrease in selling prices. National housing starts were off a reported 44% for the year to date through August of 2009 compared to the same period of 2008.

Industrial:

Gross sales to the industrial market decreased 20% in the third quarter of 2009 compared to the same period of 2008, due to an estimated 12% decrease in unit sales and an estimated 8% decrease in selling prices. We continue to experience a decline in sales to certain of our customers that supply the housing market or have been impacted by the weakening U.S. economy. We have been able to offset some of the impact of a decline in demand with market share gains and our continued penetration of the concrete forming market.

Gross sales to the industrial market decreased 23% in the first nine months of 2009 compared to the same period of 2008, due to an estimated 17% decrease in units and an estimated 6% decrease in selling prices. Unit sales decreased for the reasons mentioned in the paragraph above.

Manufactured Housing:

Gross sales to the manufactured housing market decreased 37% in the third quarter of 2009 compared to the same period of 2008, primarily due to an estimated 32% decrease in unit sales and an estimated 5% decrease in selling prices due to the Lumber Market. Our decline in unit sales was the result of an overall decline in industry production. The industry most recently reported a decrease in HUD code production of 37% in July compared to the same period of 2008. Modular home production was similarly down during the period.

Gross sales to the manufactured housing market decreased 45% in the first nine months of 2009 compared to the same period of 2008. This decrease resulted from an estimated 40% decrease in unit sales combined with an estimated 5% decrease in selling prices. Industry production of HUD code homes was off a reported 44% through July of 2009 compared to the same period of 2008. Modular home production was similarly down during the period.

Value-Added and Commodity-Based Sales:

The following table presents, for the periods indicated, our percentage of value-added and commodity-based sales to total sales.

	Three Months Ended						Nine Months Ended
	Sept. 26,			Sept. 27,			Sept. 26,			Sept. 27,
	2009			2008			2009			2008
Value-Added		58.4	%		59.6	%		60.1	%		60.7	%
Commodity-Based		41.6	%		40.4	%		39.9	%		39.3	%

25

UNIVERSAL FOREST PRODUCTS, INC.

Value-added sales decreased 26% in the third quarter of 2009 compared to 2008, primarily due to decreased sales of trusses, turn-key framing and installed sales, fencing and decking and railing. Commodity-based sales decreased 22% comparing the third quarter of 2009 with the same period of 2008, primarily due to decreased sales of non-manufactured and treated lumber.

Value-added sales decreased 27% in the first nine months of 2009 compared to 2008, primarily due to decreased sales of trusses, turn-key framing and installed sales, engineered wood products and manufactured component lumber. Commodity-based sales decreased 25% comparing the first nine months of 2009 with the same period of 2008, primarily due to decreased sales of non-manufactured lumber and panels and treated lumber.

COST OF GOODS SOLD AND GROSS PROFIT

Our gross profit percentage increased to 15.1% from 10.6% comparing the third quarter of 2009 with the same period of 2008. In addition, our gross profit dollars increased by 7% comparing the third quarter of 2009 with the same period of 2008, which compares favorably with our 18% decrease in unit sales. Our improved gross margin is primarily due to cost reductions consisting of:

• An improvement in material costs as a percentage of net sales as a result of better buying and inventory management to protect margins.

• An improvement in labor and plant overhead as a percentage of net sales due to plant consolidation and right-sizing efforts previously taken.

• Lower freight costs due to fuel prices.

In addition, the lower level of the Lumber Market caused our gross margin to increase. See “Impact of the Lumber Market on Our Operating Results”.

Our gross profit percentage increased to 14.9% from 11.3% comparing the first nine months of 2009 with the same period of 2008. Our gross profit dollars decreased by approximately 3% comparing the first nine months of 2009 with the same period of 2008, which compares favorably with our 20% decrease in unit sales. Our improved gross margin comparing these two periods was primarily due to the factors mentioned in the paragraph above.

SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES

Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses decreased by approximately $6.8 million, or 11.8%, in the third quarter of 2009 compared to the same period of 2008, while we reported an 18% decrease in unit sales. New operations added $0.2 million of expenses, operations we closed decreased expenses by $4.3 million, and existing operations reduced expenses by $2.7 million. The decrease in SG&A expenses at our existing operations was primarily due to a decline in wages and related costs due to a reduction in headcount and a decline in many other account categories as a result of efforts to control costs. These decreases were partially offset by an increase in accrued bonus. Our SG&A expenses increased as a percentage of sales primarily due to the lower level of the Lumber Market and an increase in accrued bonus expense.

26

UNIVERSAL FOREST PRODUCTS, INC.

Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses decreased by approximately $22.0 million, or 12%, in the first nine months of 2009 compared to the same period of 2008, while we reported a 20% decrease in unit sales. New operations added $0.2 million of expenses, operations we closed decreased expenses by $13.4 million, and existing operations reduced expenses by $8.8 million. The decrease in SG&A expenses at our existing operations was primarily due to a decline in wages and related costs due to a reduction in headcount and a decline in many other account categories as a result of efforts to control costs. These decreases were partially offset by an increase in accrued bonus and bad debt expense. Our SG&A expenses increased as a percentage of sales primarily due to the lower level of the Lumber Market, accrued bonus, and bad debt expense.

NET (GAIN) LOSS ON DISPOSITION OF ASSETS AND OTHER IMPAIRMENT AND EXIT CHARGES

We incurred $0.6 million of charges in the third quarter of 2009 and $5.7 million in the third quarter of 2008 relating to asset impairments and other costs associated with idled facilities and down-sizing efforts. In 2008, these costs were offset by $0.4 million of gains on the sale of certain real estate.

We incurred $2.3 million of charges in the first nine months of 2009 and $7.0 million in the first nine months of 2008 relating to asset impairments and other costs associated with idled facilities and down-sizing efforts. These costs were offset by $3.5 million in 2009 and $0.4 million in 2008 of gains on the sale of certain real estate.

We regularly review the performance of each our operations and make decisions to permanently or temporarily close operations based on a variety of factors including:

• Current and projected earnings, cash flow and return on investment

• Current and projected market demand

• Market share

• Competitive factors

• Future growth opportunities

• Personnel and management

We currently have 11 operations which are experiencing operating losses and negative cash flow for the first nine months of 2009. The net book value of the long-lived assets of these operations, which could be subject to an impairment charge in the future in the event a closure action is taken, was $15.8 million at the end of September of 2009. In addition, these operations had future fixed operating lease payments totaling $2.7 million at the end of September of 2009.

INSURANCE PROCEEDS

In May, 2008 our plant in Windsor, CO was hit by a tornado. In accordance with ASC 605, Accounting for Involuntary Conversions of Non-Monetary Assets to Monetary Assets, we have written off the net book value of the destroyed inventory and property totaling $0.7 million. The insured value of the property exceeded its net book value, which was recorded as a gain in 2008. In 2008, we collected $0.8 million of the insurance receivable and in 2009 we collected $1.0 million. As of September 26, 2009, there is no remaining insurance receivable.

INTEREST, NET

Net interest costs were lower in the third quarter and first nine months of 2009 compared to the same periods of 2008 due to lower debt balances combined with a decrease in short-term interest rates upon which our variable rate debt is based. In addition, in June of 2009 we incurred $360,000 of expense related to a make-whole provision as a result of electing to pay off one of our senior unsecured notes six months early. We saved approximately $210,000 in the third quarter of 2009 and expect to save another $210,000 in the fourth quarter of 2009 because of this pre-payment.

INCOME TAXES

Effective tax rates differ from statutory federal income tax rates, primarily due to provisions for state and local income taxes and permanent tax differences. Our effective tax rate was 38.3% and 36.7% for the third quarter and first nine months of 2009. Our effective tax rate differs from the federal statutory rate primarily due to estimated state and local income taxes and certain permanent tax differences.

OFF-BALANCE SHEET TRANSACTIONS

We have no significant off-balance sheet transactions other than operating leases.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The table below presents, for the periods indicated, a summary of our cash flow statement (in thousands):

	Nine Months Ended
	September 26, 2009			September 27, 2008
Cash from operating activities	$	111,931		$	33,314
Cash from investing activities		2,070			(7,694	)
Cash from financing activities		(47,362	)		(37,766	)
Net change in cash and cash equivalents		66,639			(12,146	)
Cash and cash equivalents, beginning of period		13,337			43,605
Cash and cash equivalents, end of period	$	79,976		$	31,459

In general, we financed our growth in the past through a combination of operating cash flows, our revolving credit facility, industrial development bonds (when circumstances permit), and issuance of long-term notes payable at times when interest rates are favorable. We have not issued equity to finance growth except in the case of a large acquisition. We manage our capital structure by attempting to maintain a targeted ratio of debt to equity and debt to earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization. We believe this is one of many important factors to maintaining a strong credit profile, which in turn helps ensure timely access to capital when needed. We are currently below our internal targets and plan to manage our capital structure conservatively in light of current economic conditions.

28

UNIVERSAL FOREST PRODUCTS, INC.

Seasonality has a significant impact on our working capital from March to August which historically resulted in negative or modest cash flows from operations in our first and second quarters. Conversely, we experience a substantial decrease in working capital from September to February which results in significant cash flow from operations in our third and fourth quarters. For comparative purposes, we have included the September 27, 2008 balances in the accompanying unaudited consolidated condensed balance sheets.

Due to the seasonality of our business and the effects of the Lumber Market, we believe our cash cycle (days of sales outstanding plus days supply of inventory less days payables outstanding) is a good indicator of our working capital management. Our cash cycle (excluding the impact of our sale of receivables program) increased to 45 days in the first nine months of 2009 from 44 days in the first nine months of 2008, due to a 1 day increase in our days supply of inventory. The increase in our days supply of inventory was primarily due to a combination of lower than planned sales early in the year and inventory positions we have taken to protect margins during the year.

Cash provided by operating activities was approximately $112 million in the first nine months of 2009 including net earnings of $24.9 million, $31.1 million of non-cash expenses and a $55.9 million decrease in working capital since the end of 2008. Working capital decreased primarily due to reductions in inventory as we reached our primary selling season, the impact of a lower Lumber Market on our inventory levels, an increase in accounts payable as purchases and volumes increase compared to December 2008, and an increase in accrued bonus and income taxes due to improved profitability. These reductions were offset by an increase in accounts receivable due to higher sales volumes compared to December 2008. In addition, through September of 2008, there was approximately $27 million of negative cash flow included in operating activities related to our sale of receivables program. Specifically, at the end of December 2007 we had approximately $27 million of receivables sold and outstanding under this program, while no amounts were sold outstanding at the end of September of 2008 because the program was terminated in that month.

We have made the decision to limit our investing activities in 2009 and make debt repayment our first priority for use of our operating cash flows. As a result, we have curtailed our capital expenditures and currently plan to spend approximately $15 million in 2009, which includes outstanding purchase commitments on existing capital projects totaling approximately $1.6 million on September 26, 2009. We intend to fund capital expenditures and purchase commitments through our operating cash flows and cash. In addition, we sold certain real estate, for which we had no planned future use, for approximately $10 million.

On September 26, 2009, we had no outstanding balance on our $300 million revolving credit facility, which matures in February of 2012. The revolving credit facility also supports letters of credit totaling approximately $32.2 million on September 26, 2009. Financial covenants on the unsecured revolving credit facility and unsecured notes include a minimum net worth requirement, minimum interest and fixed charge coverage tests, and a maximum leverage ratio. The agreements also restrict the amount of additional indebtedness we may incur and the amount of assets which may be sold. We were within all of our lending requirements on September 26, 2009.

Our Series 2002-A Senior Notes totaling $15.0 million, due on December 18, 2009, were pre-paid during the second quarter of 2009. In addition, in June of 2009 we incurred $360,000 of expense related to a make-whole provision as a result of electing to pay off one of our senior unsecured notes six months early. We saved approximately $210,000 in the third quarter of 2009 and expect to save another $210,000 in the fourth quarter of 2009 because of this pre-payment. In addition, on October 15, 2009 the Board of Directors approved an increase in our semi-annual cash dividend to $0.20 per common share to shareholders of record as of December 1, 2009.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

In preparing our consolidated financial statements, we follow accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. These principles require us to make certain estimates and apply judgments that affect our financial position and results of operations. We continually review our accounting policies and financial information disclosures. There have been no material changes in our policies or estimates since December 27, 2008.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk.

We are exposed to market risks related to fluctuations in interest rates on our variable rate debt, which consists of a revolving credit facility and industrial development revenue bonds. We do not currently use interest rate swaps, futures contracts or options on futures, or other types of derivative financial instruments to mitigate this risk.

For fixed rate debt, changes in interest rates generally affect the fair market value, but not earnings or cash flows. Conversely, for variable rate debt, changes in interest rates generally do not influence fair market value, but do affect future earnings and cash flows. We do not have an obligation to prepay fixed rate debt prior to maturity, and as a result, interest rate risk and changes in fair market value should not have a significant impact on such debt until we would be required to refinance it.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures. With the participation of management, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, after evaluating the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a — 15e and 15d — 15e) as of the quarter ended September 26, 2009 (the “Evaluation Date”), have concluded that, as of such date, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

(b) Changes in Internal Controls. During the quarter ended September 26, 2009, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
