General Development of Business
Skyline Corporation was originally incorporated in Indiana in 1959, as successor to a business founded in 1951. Skyline Corporation and its consolidated subsidiaries (the Corporation) designs, produces and markets manufactured housing, modular housing and recreational vehicles (travel trailers, fifth wheels and park models) to independent dealers and manufactured housing communities located throughout the United States and Canada. Manufactured housing represents homes built according to a national building code; modular housing represents homes built to a local building code.
The Corporation, which is one of the largest producers of manufactured and modular housing in the United States, sold 2,434 manufactured homes and 457 modular homes in fiscal 2014.
The Corporations housing products are marketed under a number of trademarks. They are available in lengths ranging from 30 to 76 and in singlewide widths from 12 to 16, doublewide widths from 18 to 32, and triplewide widths from 36 to 46. The area of a singlewide ranges from approximately 400 to 1,200 square feet, a doublewide from approximately 700 to 2,400 square feet, and a triplewide from approximately 1,600 to 2,900 square feet.
The Corporation also sold 2,825 recreational vehicles in fiscal 2014, which are sold under a number of trademarks for travel trailers, fifth wheels and park models.
Financial Information about Segments
Net sales, operating results and total assets for the housing and recreational vehicle segments are included in Note 16, Industry Segment Information, in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in this document under Item 8.
Narrative Description of Business
Principal Products and Markets
The Corporations homes are marketed under a number of trademarks, and are available in a variety of dimensions. Manufactured housing models are built according to standards established by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development. Modular homes are built according to state, provincial or local building codes. Each home typically includes two to four bedrooms, kitchen, dining area, living room, one or two bathrooms, kitchen appliances, central heating and cooling. Custom options may include but are not limited to: exterior dormers and windows; interior or exterior accent columns; fireplaces and whirlpool tubs. Materials used to construct a manufactured or a modular home are similar to those used in site-built housing. The Corporation also sells homes that are Energy-Star compliant.
The Corporations recreational vehicles include travel trailers, fifth wheels and park models. Travel trailers and fifth wheels are marketed under the following trademarks: Aljo; AlumaSky; Ecocamp; Koala; Super Lite; Layton; Nomad; Park Villa; Retro; Skycat; Walkabout; and Weekender. Park models are marketed under the following trademarks: Cabin Series; Cedar Cove; Kensington; Shore Park Homes; Stone Harbor; and Vacation Villa. The Corporations recreational vehicles are intended to provide temporary living accommodations for individuals seeking leisure travel and outdoor recreation. A recreational vehicle typically includes sleeping, kitchen, dining and bath areas.
The principal markets for manufactured and modular housing are the suburban and rural areas of the continental United States and Canada. The principal buyers continue to be individuals over the age of fifty, but the market tends to broaden when conventional housing becomes more difficult to purchase and finance.
The recreational vehicle market is made up of primarily vacationing families, traveling retired couples and sports enthusiasts pursuing four-season hobbies.

Item 1. | Business (Continued). |
Principal Products and Markets (Continued)
The Corporation provides the retail purchaser of its homes with a full fifteen-month warranty against defects in design, materials and workmanship. Recreational vehicles are covered by a one-year warranty. The warranties are backed by service departments located at the Corporations manufacturing facilities and an extensive field service system.
The amount and percentage of net sales contributed by the housing and recreational vehicle segments is noted in Items 7 and 8.
Method of Distribution
The Corporations homes are distributed by approximately 210 independent dealers at 370 locations throughout the United States and Canada, and recreational vehicles are distributed by approximately 150 independent dealers at 200 locations throughout the United States and Canada. These are generally not exclusive dealerships and it is believed that most dealers also sell products of other manufacturers.
The Corporations products are sold to dealers either through floor plan financing with various financial institutions or on a cash basis. Payments to the Corporation are made either directly by the dealer or by financial institutions, which have agreed to finance dealer purchases of the Corporations products. In accordance with industry practice, certain financial institutions which finance dealer purchases require the Corporation to execute repurchase agreements in which the Corporation agrees, that in the event a dealer defaults on its repayment of the financing, the Corporation will repurchase its products from the financial institution in accordance with a declining repurchase price schedule agreed to by the financial institution and the Corporation. Any loss under these agreements is the difference between the repurchase cost and the resale value of the units repurchased. Further, the risk of loss is spread over numerous dealers.
The Corporation had no losses related to repurchases in fiscal years 2014 and 2013. Additional information regarding these repurchase agreements is included in Note 12, Commitments and Contingencies, in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in this document under Item 8.
Raw Materials and Supplies
The Corporation is basically an assembler and installer of components purchased from outside sources. The major components used by the Corporation are electrical components, lumber, plywood, shingles, vinyl and wood siding, steel, aluminum, insulation, home appliances, furnaces, plumbing fixtures, hardware, floor coverings and furniture. The suppliers are many and range in size from large national companies to very small local companies. At the present time the Corporation is obtaining sufficient materials to fulfill its needs.
Patents, Trademarks, Licenses, Franchises and Concessions
The Corporation does not rely upon any terminable or nonrenewable rights such as patents, licenses or franchises under the trademarks or patents of others, in the conduct of either segment of its business.
Seasonal Fluctuations
While the Corporation maintains production of homes and recreational vehicles throughout the year, seasonal fluctuations in sales do occur. Sales and production of homes are affected by winter weather conditions at the Corporations northern plants. Recreational vehicle sales are generally higher in the spring and summer months than in the fall and winter months.
Inventory
The Corporation does not maintain significant inventories of either raw materials or finished goods. In addition, there are no inventories sold on consignment.

Item 1. | Business (Continued). |
Dependence Upon Individual Customers
During fiscal 2014, net sales of homes and recreational vehicles to Sun Home Services, Inc. totaled approximately $19,657,000 or 10 percent of total net sales. No other individual customer in fiscal 2014 and 2013 had net sales greater than 10 percent of net total sales.
Backlog
The Corporation does not consider the existence and extent of backlog to be significant in its business. The Corporations production is based on a relatively short manufacturing cycle and dealers orders, which continuously fluctuate. As such, the existence of backlog is insignificant at any given date and does not typically provide a reliable indication of the status of the Corporations business.
Government Contracts
The Corporation has had no government contracts during the past two years.
Competitive Conditions
The industries in which the Corporation operates are highly competitive, with particular emphasis on price and features offered. The Corporations competitors are numerous, ranging from multi-billion dollar corporations to relatively small and specialized manufacturers. In addition, the housing segment also competes with companies that provide other forms of housing, such as new and existing site-built homes, apartments, condominiums and townhouses.
The following tables show the Corporations competitive position on a calendar and fiscal year basis in the product lines it sells.

Both the housing and recreational vehicle segments of the Corporations business are dependent upon the availability of wholesale and retail financing. Consequently, increases in interest rates and the availability of credit through governmental action or otherwise, have adversely affected the Corporations business in the past and may do so in the future.

Item 1. | Business (Continued). |
Regulation
The manufacture, distribution and sale of manufactured housing, modular housing and recreational vehicles are subject to government regulations in both the United States and Canada, at federal, state or provincial and local levels.
Environmental Quality
The Corporation believes that compliance with federal, state and local requirements with respect to environmental quality will not require any material capital expenditures for plant or equipment modifications which would adversely affect earnings.
Other Regulations
The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) has set national manufactured home construction and safety standards and implemented recall and other regulations since 1976. The National Manufactured Housing Construction and Safety Standards Act of 1974, as amended, under which such standards and regulations are promulgated, prohibits states from establishing or continuing in effect any manufactured home standard that is not identical to the federal standards as to any covered aspect of performance. Implementation of these standards and regulations involves inspection agency approval of manufactured home designs, plant and home inspection by states or other HUD-approved third parties, manufacturer certification that the standards are met, and possible recalls if they are not or if homes contain safety hazards.
HUD has promulgated rules requiring producers of manufactured homes to utilize wood products certified by their suppliers to meet HUDs established limits on formaldehyde emissions, and to place in each home written notice to prospective purchasers of possible adverse reaction from airborne formaldehyde in the homes. These rules are designated as preemptive of state regulation. Some components of manufactured and modular housing may also be subject to Consumer Product Safety Commission standards and recall requirements.
Regarding recreational vehicles, the Corporation has voluntarily subjected itself to third party inspection of all of its recreational vehicle products nationwide in order to further assure the Corporation, its dealers, and customers of compliance with established standards.
Manufactured housing, modular housing and recreational vehicles may be subject to the MagnusonMoss Warranty Federal Trade Commission Improvement Act, which regulates warranties on consumer products.
The Corporations travel trailers continue to be subject to safety standards and recall and other regulations promulgated by the U.S. Department of Transportation under the National Traffic and Motor Vehicle Safety Act of 1966 and the Transportation Recall Enhancement, Accountability and Documentation (TREAD) Act, as well as state laws and regulations.
The Corporations operations are subject to the Federal Occupational Safety and Health Act, and are routinely inspected thereunder.
The transportation and placement (in the case of manufactured and modular housing) of the Corporations products are subject to state highway use regulations and local ordinances which control the size of units that may be transported, the roads to be used, speed limits, hours of travel, and allowable locations for manufactured homes and communities.
The Corporation is also subject to many state manufacturer licensing and bonding requirements, and to dealer day in court requirements in some states.
The Corporation believes that it is currently in compliance with the above regulations.
Number of Employees
The Corporation employs approximately 1,300 people at the present time.

The SEC maintains an internet website (http://www.sec.gov) that contains reports, proxy and information statements, and other information regarding issuers that file electronically with the SEC.
Item 1A. | Risk Factors. |
Investors or potential investors should carefully consider the risks described below. Additional risks of which the Corporation is presently unaware or that the Corporation considers immaterial may also impair business operations and hinder financial performance.
Incurrence of Net Losses
Due to negative economic conditions that impacted the manufactured housing, modular housing and recreational vehicle industries, the Corporation incurred net losses from fiscal year 2008 to 2014. In addition, net losses were also incurred as a result of declining net sales and market share in its recreational vehicle segment. To continue as a going concern, the Corporations management is aggressively pursuing strategies as referenced in Item 7 to raise capital, increase sales and decrease cost. In addition, management is prepared to modify these strategies to meet prevailing business conditions. Continued losses could negatively affect the Corporations liquidity.
Changing Consumer Preferences
Changes in consumer preferences for manufactured housing, modular housing and recreational vehicles occur over time, and consequently the Corporation responds to changing demand by evaluating the market acceptability of its products. Delays in responding to changing consumer preferences could have an adverse effect on net sales, operating results and cash flows.
Dependence on Independent Dealers
The Corporation sells its manufactured homes, modular homes and recreational vehicles to independent dealers. These dealers are not obligated to exclusively sell the Corporations products, and may choose to sell competitors products. In addition, a dealer may become financially insolvent and be forced to close its business. Both scenarios could have an adverse effect on net sales, operating results and cash flows.
Cost and Availability of Raw Materials
Prices and availability of raw materials used to manufacture the Corporations products can change significantly due to fluctuations in supply and demand. In addition, the cost of raw materials is also influenced by transportation costs. The Corporation has historically been able to have an adequate supply of raw materials by maintaining good relations with its vendors.
6
Item 1A. | Risk Factors (Continued). |
Cost and Availability of Raw Materials (Continued)
Increased prices have historically been passed on to dealers by raising the price of manufactured housing, modular housing and recreational vehicles. There is no certainty that the Corporation will be able to pass on future price increases and maintain an adequate supply of raw materials. The inability to raise the price of its products and to maintain a proper supply of materials could have a negative impact on net sales, operating results and cash flows.
Dealer Inventories
As wholesale shipments of manufactured homes, modular homes and recreational vehicles exceed retail sales, dealer inventories increase to a level where dealers decrease orders from manufacturers. As manufacturers respond to reduced demand, many either offer discounts to maintain production volumes or curtail production levels. Both outcomes could have a negative impact on net sales, operating results and cash flows.
Competition
As noted in Item 1, the manufactured housing, modular housing and recreational vehicle industries are highly competitive with particular emphasis on price and features offered. Some of the Corporations competitors are vertically integrated by owning retail, consumer finance and insurance operations. This integration may provide competitors with an advantage. In addition, the Corporations housing products compete with other forms of housing, such as new and existing site-built homes, apartments, condominiums and townhouses. The inability to effectively compete in this environment could result in lower net sales, operating results and cash flows.
Retail Financing Availability
Customers who purchase the Corporations products generally obtain retail financing from third party lenders. The availability, terms and cost of retail financing depend on the lending practices of financial institutions, governmental policies and economic and other conditions, all of which are beyond the Corporations control. A customer seeking to purchase a manufactured home without land will generally pay a higher interest rate and have a shorter loan maturity versus a customer financing the purchase of land and a home. This difference is due to most states classifying home-only manufactured housing loans as personal property rather than real property for purposes of taxation and lien perfection.
In recent years, many lenders of home-only financing have tightened credit underwriting standards, with some deciding to exit the industry. These actions resulted in decreased availability of retail financing, causing a negative effect on sales and operating results. If retail financing were to be further curtailed, net sales, operating results and cash flows could be adversely affected.
Wholesale Financing Availability
Independent dealers of the Corporations products generally finance their inventory purchases with wholesale floor plan financing provided by lending institutions.
A dealers ability to obtain financing is significantly affected by the number of lending institutions offering floor planning, and by an institutions lending limits. In recent years, the industries in which the Corporation operates experienced a reduction in both the number of lenders offering floor planning and the amount of money available for financing. These events could have a negative impact on a dealers ability to purchase manufactured housing, modular housing and recreational vehicle products, resulting in lower net sales, operating results and cash flows.
Increased Fuel Prices
The Corporations recreational vehicle products depend on the use of vehicles that operate on gasoline or diesel fuel. In the Corporations history there have been periods where the price of gasoline and diesel fuel dramatically increased. These increases resulted in greater cost associated with recreational vehicle travel. This trend could result in decreased net sales, operating results and cash flows.
7
Item 1A. | Risk Factors (Continued). |
Governmental Regulations
As noted in Item 1, the Corporation is subject to various governmental regulations. Implementation of new regulations or amendments to existing regulations could significantly increase the cost of the Corporations products. In addition, failure to comply with present or future regulations could result in fines or potential civil or criminal liability. Both scenarios could negatively impact net sales, operating results and cash flows.
Contingent Repurchase Agreements
As referenced in Note 12 to the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 8, the Corporation is contingently liable under repurchase agreements with certain financial institutions providing inventory financing for retailers of its products. The Corporation could be required to fulfill some or all of the repurchase agreements, resulting in increased expense and reduced cash flows.
Cyclical and Seasonal Nature of Business
The industries in which the Corporation operates are highly cyclical, and are impacted by but not limited to the following conditions:
| Availability of wholesale and retail financing |
| Consumer confidence |
| Interest rates |
| Demographic and employment trends |
| Availability of used or repossessed homes or recreational vehicles |
| Impact of inflation |
Sales of manufactured housing, modular housing and recreational vehicle industries are also seasonal in nature with sales being lowest in the winter months. Seasonal changes, in addition to weakness in demand in one or both of the Corporations market segments, could materially impact the Corporations net sales, operating results and cash flows.
Dependence on Executive Officers and Other Key Personnel
The Corporation depends on the efforts of its executive officers and certain key employees. The loss of the service of one or more of these individuals could have an adverse effect on net sales, operating results and cash flows of the Corporation.

Item 7. | Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (Continued). |
Manufactured Housing, Modular Housing and Recreational Vehicle Industry Conditions
Sales of manufactured housing, modular housing and recreational vehicles are affected by the strength of the U.S. economy, interest rate and employment levels, consumer confidence and the availability of wholesale and retail financing. The manufactured housing industry had been affected by declining unit shipments to historically low levels. Shipments totaled approximately 373,000 units in 1998; steadily declining to approximately 50,000 units by 2010. This decline was caused primarily by adverse economic conditions, tightening retail and wholesale credit markets and a depressed site-built housing market. Shipments, however, increased to approximately 52,000, 55,000 and 60,000 units in 2011, 2012 and 2013, respectively. From January to May 2014, shipments were approximately 25,000 units; an approximately 5 percent increase from the same period a year ago.
Tight credit markets for retail and wholesale financing have become a significant challenge for the manufactured housing industry. According to the Manufactured Housing Institute, a lack of retail financing options and restrictive credit standards has negatively affected manufactured home buyers. In addition, a significant decline has occurred in wholesale financing, especially as national floor plan lenders have decreased lending to industry dealers.
The domestic modular housing industry has challenges similar to the manufactured housing industry, such as restrictive retail and wholesale financing, and a depressed site-built housing market. From calendar 2006 to 2012, total shipments decreased from approximately 39,000 to 13,000 units, a decline of 67 percent. Total shipments for calendar year 2013, however, increased approximately 8 percent from calendar 2012s total to approximately 14,000 units. Information related to the Canadian modular housing industry is not available.
Sales of recreational vehicles are influenced by changes in consumer confidence, employment levels, the availability of retail and wholesale financing and gasoline prices. Industry unit sales of travel trailers and fifth wheels have varied in recent years. From calendar 2007 to the first half of 2009 unit sales decreased as a result of recessionary conditions, decreased household wealth, tightening credit markets for retail and wholesale financing, and excess inventory of new recreational vehicles. Unit sales, however, started increasing in the last half of calendar 2009 and continue to date. The Recreational Vehicle Industry Association (RVIA) notes that continued growth in recreational vehicle shipments is due to a combination of easing credit terms and availability of loans, gains in household wealth and employment. These positive factors, however, could be negatively affected by rising interest rates.
Fiscal 2014 Results
The Corporation experienced the following results during fiscal 2014:
| Total net sales were $191,730,000, an approximate 8 percent increase from the $177,574,000 reported in the same period a year ago |
| Housing net sales were $145,864,000, an approximate 31 percent increase from the $111,104,000 realized in fiscal 2013 |
| Recreational vehicle net sales were $45,866,000 in fiscal 2014, an approximate 31 percent decrease from $66,470,000 in fiscal 2013 |
| Net loss for the fiscal 2014 was $11,864,000 as compared to $10,513,000 for fiscal 2013. On a per share basis, net loss was $1.41 as compared to $1.25 for the comparable period a year ago |
| Two idle housing facilities located in Fair Haven, Vermont and Halstead, Kansas were sold for gains of $162,000 and $300,000, respectively. In addition, undeveloped land located in Elkhart, Indiana was sold for a gain of $244,000. |
| The Corporation consolidated the manufacturing of recreational vehicles to its facilities in Bristol and Elkhart, Indiana. As a result of the consolidation, the Mansfield, Texas facility, which formerly built recreational vehicles, was renovated to accommodate the production of manufactured housing. Commencement of housing operations occurred in the third quarter. |

Fiscal 2014 Results (Continued)
| In the fourth quarter, life insurance loans from policy cash surrender values, of approximately $6,300,000 were obtained to meet certain obligations and to purchase inventory as the Corporation entered its spring and summer selling seasons; the highest sales periods in its fiscal year. Prepaid interest expense of approximately $200,000 was assessed; resulting in net proceeds of approximately $6,100,000. The loans have no fixed repayment schedule, and have interest rates ranging from 4.2 percent to 7.4 percent. The weighted average interest rate of the loans in total is 5.9 percent. |
The Corporations housing segment experienced increased net sales in fiscal 2014 as compared to fiscal 2013, and management cannot determine with certainty if this trend will continue. This uncertainty is based on potential adverse changes in economic growth, interest rate and employment levels, consumer confidence, and the availability of wholesale and retail financing.
The recreational vehicle segment experienced decreased net sales in fiscal 2014 as noted in Net Sales and Unit Shipments. Regarding the business environment for fiscal 2015, the RVIA forecasts calendar 2014 travel trailer and fifth wheel shipments of approximately 289,000 units; an 8 percent increase from calendar 2013s total of approximately 268,000 units. In addition, calendar 2015 travel trailer and fifth wheel shipments are forecasted to be approximately 298,000 units; a 3 percent increase from calendar 2014s total. Despite this favorable forecast, business conditions in fiscal 2014 could be negatively impacted by adverse factors previously referenced by the RVIA.
Managements Plan
The Corporations consolidated financial statements were prepared on a going concern basis, which assumes continuity of operations and realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the ordinary course of business. Due to recurring losses, the Corporation experienced negative cash flows from operating activities. As a result, the Corporation has utilized its cash, investments in U.S. Treasury Bills, proceeds from the sale of assets and borrowings from the cash surrender of life insurance policies. The level of historical negative cash flows from operations and not having available funding from outside financing sources raise substantial doubt about the Corporations ability to continue as a going concern. To continue as a going concern, certain strategies need to be pursued to raise capital, increase sales and decrease costs. These strategies include but are not limited to:
| Addressing declining recreational vehicle sales by evaluating its model lineup to more closely meet consumer needs. Specifically, at an exclusive meeting of recreational vehicle dealers held in June 2014, the Corporation announced for fiscal year 2015 the introduction of the Dart; Javelin; and Trident brands. These new brands, coupled with redesigned Nomad and Layton brands, are believed by management to be products that will appeal to both recreational vehicles dealers and consumers. In addition, subsequent to May 31, 2014, management consolidated the operations of the Elkhart, Indiana recreational vehicle facility into its Bristol, Indiana recreational vehicle facility. This consolidation is expected to increase manufacturing efficiencies and decrease costs. |
| Increasing sales at the Mansfield, Texas housing facility by gaining a greater presence on the properties of manufactured housing dealers and manufactured housing communities. Furthermore, efforts are being made to reduce costs and gain manufacturing efficiencies as the facility transitions from a startup to a continuing operation. |
| Continuing to work with manufactured housing communities to identify opportunities for increasing sales |
| Increasing efforts to increase sales of modular homes and park models in both the United States and Canada by cultivating relationships with modular housing developers and campground owners that are outside the Corporations historical distribution channels |
| Maintaining the number of display models at housing facilities in order to provide dealers, communities and consumers with examples of newly designed product |

Item 7. | Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (Continued). |
Managements Plan (Continued)
| Selling non-strategic assets, such as an idle housing facility in Ocala, Florida and undeveloped land in McMinnville, Oregon, to generate cash and eliminate carrying costs |
| Working with current and potential vendors to decrease costs |
| Analyzing staffing needs and making reductions when considered appropriate by management |
| Continuing to seek debt financing that is acceptable with respect to cost and structure |
As with any business enterprise, the Corporations ability to operate as a going concern is contingent upon the successful execution of its strategies. Management, however, is prepared to modify these strategies to meet prevailing business conditions.

Results of Operations Fiscal 2014 Compared to Fiscal 2013 (Continued)
Net Sales and Unit Shipments (Continued)
Housing net sales increased approximately 31 percent. The increase was the outcome of the following factors:
| Domestic manufactured housing net sales increasing approximately 38 percent |
| Domestic modular housing net sales increasing approximately 7 percent |
| Canadian modular housing net sales remaining relatively unchanged |
Housing unit shipments increased approximately 30 percent. The increase was the outcome of the following factors:
| Domestic manufactured housing shipments increasing approximately 31 percent |
| Domestic modular shipments increasing approximately 33 percent |
| Canadian modular shipments decreasing approximately 7 percent |
As previously noted, total domestic manufactured housing unit shipments increased approximately 31 percent. Industry unit shipments for these products in fiscal 2014 increased approximately 10 percent as compared to fiscal 2013. The improvement is the result of increased sales to manufactured housing communities.
Total modular housing unit shipments increased approximately 24 percent. Unit shipments increased due to the fourth quarter shipment of 127 modular housing units resulting from a contract between the Corporation and National Community Renaissance of California. The modular units were assembled into multi-story apartment buildings, and the revenue recognized from the shipment of the modular units was approximately $3,900,000. This contract was outside of the Corporations normal business model of producing and selling single family manufactured and modular housing for dealers and communities. The Corporation does not plan on performing this type of project in the foreseeable future. Current industry unit shipment data is not available.
Compared to prior year, the average net sales price for domestic manufactured housing and Canadian modular housing products increased approximately 5 percent and 7 percent, respectively. The increase is primarily as a result of homes sold with larger square footage and greater amenities. The average net sales price for domestic modular housing products decreased approximately 19 percent; resulting from homes sold with less square footage and fewer amenities.
Recreational vehicles net sales revenue decreased approximately 31 percent. The decrease was the outcome of the following factors:
| Domestic recreational vehicle net sales decreasing approximately 29 percent |
| Canadian recreational vehicle net sales decreasing approximately 41 percent |
Recreational vehicle unit shipments decreased approximately 35 percent. The decrease was the outcome of the following factors:
| Domestic recreational vehicle shipments decreasing approximately 34 percent |
| Canadian recreational vehicle shipments decreasing approximately 39 percent |
Unit shipments for travel trailers and fifth wheels decreased approximately 38 percent. Industry shipments for these products in fiscal 2014 increased approximately 10 percent as compared to fiscal 2013. The Corporations unit shipments lagged the industry due to various factors. Unit shipments to domestic dealers were adversely affected by some competitors maintaining larger quantities of finished goods inventory; resulting in the ability to meet dealer demand immediately. In addition, the Corporation experienced decreased demand from Canadian dealers. Finally, consumer demand is presently concentrated toward larger, higher priced models; of which the Corporation has a limited offering. Current industry unit shipment data for park models is not available.

Housing cost of sales, in dollars, increased primarily as a result of increased unit shipments. Current year cost of sales included approximately $2,626,000 of expenses attributable to the operations of the Mansfield, Texas housing facility; which was converted during fiscal year 2014 to accommodate housing production as compared to recreational vehicle production in fiscal 2013. This facility incurred certain manufacturing costs such as employee retraining associated with the aforementioned conversion. Sales for this facility totaled approximately $1,590,000. In addition, the Corporation had approximately $633,000 of unique manufacturing costs attributable to the contract with National Community Renaissance of California. As a percentage of net sales, housing cost of sales decreased due to primarily certain manufacturing expenses remaining fixed amid rising sales.
Recreational vehicle cost of sales decreased due to declining unit shipments. As a percentage of net sales, recreational vehicle cost of sales increased primarily due to certain manufacturing costs remaining fixed amid declining sales.

Gain on Sale of Idle Property, Plant and Equipment
During the first quarter of fiscal 2014, the Corporation sold an idle housing facility located in Fair Haven, Vermont for a gain of $162,000. In the third quarter of fiscal 2014, an idle housing facility located in Halstead, Kansas was sold for a gain of $300,000. In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2014, undeveloped land located in Elkhart, Indiana was sold for a gain of $244,000.
During the second quarter of fiscal 2013, two idle recreational vehicle facilities located in Hemet, California were sold for a gain of $1,411,000. During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2013, an idle housing facility was sold for a gain of $230,000.

The operating loss for the housing segment decreased due to the effects of increased net sales. Included in the current year loss is an approximately $1,691,000 year to date loss attributable to the housing facility in Mansfield, Texas. In addition, the contract with National Community Renaissance of California was performed by the Corporations San Jacinto, California facility. The fourth quarter loss associated with this contract, in addition to other non-contract related business, totaled approximately $1,643,000. Included in this loss is an accrual of approximately $760,000 related to contractual obligations that are anticipated to be completed in the first half of fiscal 2015.
Recreational vehicle operating loss increased primarily due to decreased net sales.
General corporate expenses decreased primarily due to a decrease in the expense related to the Corporations liability for retirement and death benefits offered to certain current and former employees as previously referenced.
Interest expense is related to the cost of having outstanding life insurance loans of $6,334,000. The interest rates associated with loans vary from 4.2 to 7.4 percent; with a weighted average interest rate of 5.9 percent.
Interest income for fiscal 2014 consisted of $99,000 interest from the Corporations note receivable, and $1,000 from investment in U.S. Treasury Bills. Interest income fiscal 2013 consisted of approximately $55,000 from the Corporations note receivable and approximately $9,000 from investment in U.S. Treasury Bills.

Liquidity and Capital Resources (Continued)
Cash, Restricted Cash and U.S. Treasury Bills decreased primarily due to a net loss of approximately $11,864,000. Current assets, exclusive of cash, restricted cash and U.S. Treasury Bills, increased mainly due to a $7,557,000 increase in accounts receivable, and a $2,598,000 increase in inventories. Accounts receivable increased due to higher sales for May 2014 as compared to May 2013, in addition to the timing of payment from dealers and communities at May 31, 2014 as compared to May 31, 2013. In addition, the accounts receivable from National Community Renaissance at May 31, 2014 totaled approximately $2,900,000. Inventories rose as a result of increased raw materials and work in process inventories; caused primarily by increased production at May 31, 2014 as compared to May 31, 2013.
Current liabilities increased as a result of increases in accounts payable, accrued marketing programs, and other accrued liabilities. Accounts payable increased $1,464,000 due to increased production at May 31, 2014 as compared to May 31, 2013. Accrued marketing programs increased $891,000 as a result of increased manufactured housing sales impacting an ongoing marketing program for manufacturing housing dealers. Other accrued liabilities increased $1,620,000 due primarily to increased deposits received from dealers, state sales tax withholdings, and contractual obligations associated with the contract with National Community Renaissance of California.
Capital expenditures totaled $753,000 for fiscal 2014 as compared to $75,000 for fiscal 2013. Capital expenditures were made primarily to replace or refurbish machinery and equipment, and to renovate the Mansfield, Texas facility to accommodate the production of housing.
As noted in the Managements Plan section of Item 7, the Corporation is aggressively pursuing strategies in order to raise capital, increase sales and decrease costs. As with any business enterprise, the Corporations ability to operate as a going concern is contingent upon the successful execution of its strategies. Management, however, is prepared to modify these strategies to meet prevailing business conditions.
Critical Accounting Policies
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires the Corporation to make certain estimates that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses and related disclosures.
Estimates are periodically evaluated using historical experience and various other factors believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. The following accounting policies are considered to require a significant estimate:
Deferred Tax Assets
Net deferred tax assets and liabilities are computed based on the difference between the financial statement and income tax bases of assets and liabilities using the enacted tax rates.
The Corporation has a full valuation allowance against its deferred tax assets. In addition, net deferred tax assets consist of federal net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards, state net operating loss carryforwards and temporary differences between financial and tax reporting. Additional information regarding the increase in the valuation allowance is referenced in Note 11 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.
Revenue Recognition
The Corporations accounting for revenue recognition is referenced in Note 1 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.
17
Item 7. | Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (Continued). |
Critical Accounting Policies (Continued)
Product Warranties
As referenced in Note 1 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, homes are sold with a fifteen-month warranty and recreational vehicles are sold with a one-year warranty. Estimated warranty costs are accrued at the time of sale based upon sales, historical claims experience and managements judgment regarding anticipated rates of warranty claims. Significant changes in these factors could have a material impact on future results of operations.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
Information regarding recently issued accounting pronouncements is located in Note 1 of the Note to Consolidated Financial Statements.
Impact of Inflation
The consolidated financial statements included in this report reflect transactions in the dollar values in which they were incurred and, therefore, do not attempt to measure the impact of inflation. On a long-term basis, the Corporation has adjusted selling prices in reaction to changing costs due to inflation.
Forward Looking Information
Certain statements in this report are considered forward looking as indicated by the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements involve uncertainties that may cause actual results to materially differ from expectations as of the report date. These uncertainties include but are not limited to:
| Consumer confidence and economic uncertainty |
| Availability of wholesale and retail financing |
| The health of the U.S. housing market as a whole |
| Federal, state and local regulations pertaining to the manufactured housing and industry |
| Cyclical nature of the manufactured housing and recreational vehicle industries |
| General or seasonal weather conditions affecting sales |
| Potential impact of natural disasters on sales and raw material costs |
| Potential periodic inventory adjustments by independent retailers Interest rate levels |
| Impact of inflation |
| Impact of rising fuel costs |

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Shareholders and Board of Directors of Skyline Corporation
Elkhart, Indiana
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Skyline Corporation and subsidiary companies (the Corporation) as of May 31, 2014 and 2013, and the related consolidated statements of operations and retained earnings, and cash flows for the years then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Corporations management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements 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 audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Corporation is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Corporations internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Corporation as of May 31, 2014 and 2013, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Corporation will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has incurred recurring operating losses and negative cash flows from operating activities. The Company also needs to raise additional capital in order to fund projected operating needs through May 31, 2015 for which there is no current commitment. These matters raise substantial doubt about the Companys ability to continue as a going concern. Managements plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 1. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Skyline Corporation and Subsidiary Companies
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
NOTE 1 | Nature of Operations, Accounting Policies of Consolidated Financial Statements |
Nature of operations Skyline Corporation designs, produces and markets manufactured housing, modular housing and recreational vehicles (travel trailers, fifth wheels and park models) to independent dealers and manufactured housing communities throughout the United States and Canada. Manufactured housing represents homes built according to a national code; modular housing represents homes built to a local code. These dealers and communities often utilize floor plan financing arrangements with lending institutions. The Corporations net sales are predominately from its housing products.
The following is a summary of the accounting policies that have a significant effect on the consolidated financial statements.
Basis of presentation The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Skyline Corporation and its wholly-owned subsidiaries as referenced in Exhibit 21 (the Corporation). All intercompany transactions have been eliminated. Certain prior year amounts for Property, Plant and Equipment have been reclassified to conform to current year presentation.
Accounting Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions. These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Key estimates would include accruals for warranty, workers compensation, marketing programs and health insurance as well as valuations for long-lived assets and deferred tax assets.
Revenue recognition Substantially all of the Corporations products are made to order. Revenue is recognized upon completion of the following: an order for a unit is received from a dealer or community (customer); written or verbal approval for payment is received from a customers financial institution or payment is received; a common carrier signs documentation accepting responsibility for the unit as agent for the customer; and the unit is removed from the Corporations premises for delivery to a customer. Freight billed to customers is considered sales revenue, and the related freight costs are cost of sales. Volume based rebates paid to dealers are classified as a reduction of sales revenue. Sales of parts are classified as revenue.
Investments The Corporation invests in United States Government securities, which are typically held until maturity and are therefore classified as held-to-maturity and carried at amortized cost.
Accounts Receivable Trade receivables are based on the amounts billed to dealers and communities. The Corporation does not accrue interest on any of its trade receivables, nor does it have an allowance for credit losses due to favorable collections experience. If a loss occurs, the Corporations policy is to recognize it in the period when collectability cannot be reasonably assured.
Inventories Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined under the first-in, first-out method. Physical inventory counts are taken at the end of each reporting quarter.
Workers Compensation Security Deposit Workers compensation security deposit represents funds placed with the Corporations workers compensation insurance carrier to offset future medical claims and benefits.
Note Receivable The Corporations note receivable represents the amount owed for the sale of two idle recreational vehicle facilities in Hemet, California; less cash received on the date of closing and cash received from principal repayments through May 31, 2014. Interest is accrued on a monthly basis. No allowance for credit losses exists due to favorable collections experience. The Corporations management evaluates the credit quality of the note on a monthly basis. The Corporations policy is to recognize a loss in the period when collectability cannot be reasonably assured.

Skyline Corporation and Subsidiary Companies
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)
NOTE 1 | Nature of Operations, Accounting Policies of Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued) |
Property, Plant and Equipment Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation is computed over the estimated useful lives of the assets using the straight-line method for financial statement reporting and accelerated methods for income tax reporting purposes. Estimated useful lives for significant classes of property, plant and equipment, including idle property, are as follows: Building and improvements 10 to 30 years; machinery and equipment 5 to 8 years. At May 31, 2014, idle property consisted of manufacturing facilities in Ocala, Florida and Elkhart, Indiana. At May, 31, 2013, idle property consisted of manufacturing facilities in the following locations: Ocala, Florida; Elkhart, Indiana; Halstead, Kansas and Fair Haven, Vermont.
Long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable from projected future cash flows. If the carrying value of a long-lived asset is impaired, an impairment charge is recorded for the amount by which the carrying value of the long-lived asset exceeds its fair value. The Company believes no impairment of long-lived assets exists at May 31, 2014.
Warranty The Corporation provides the retail purchaser of its homes with a full fifteen-month warranty against defects in design, materials and workmanship. Recreational vehicles are covered by a one-year warranty. The warranties are backed by service departments located at the Corporations manufacturing facilities and an extensive field service system.
Estimated warranty costs are accrued at the time of sale based upon current sales, historical experience and managements judgment regarding anticipated rates of warranty claims. The adequacy of the recorded warranty liability is periodically assessed and the amount is adjusted as necessary.
Income Taxes The Corporation recognizes deferred tax assets based on differences between the carrying values of assets for financial and tax reporting purposes. The realization of the deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of sufficient future taxable income. Generally accepted accounting principles require that an entity consider both negative and positive evidence in determining whether a valuation allowance is warranted. In comparing negative and positive evidence, continual losses in recent years is considered significant, negative, objective evidence that deferred tax assets may not be realized in the future, and generally is assigned more weight than subjective positive evidence of the realizability of deferred tax assets. As a result of its extensive evaluation of both positive and negative evidence, management maintains a full valuation allowance against its deferred tax assets. The Corporation reports a liability, if any, for unrecognized tax benefits resulting from uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. The Corporation recognizes interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits in income tax expense.
Consolidated statements of cash flows For purposes of the consolidated statements of cash flows, investments in U. S. Treasury Bills are included as investing activities. The Corporations cash flows from operating activities were not affected by income taxes in fiscal 2014 and 2013.
Recently issued accounting pronouncements In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 66). The core principal of ASU 2014-09 is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. For a public entity, this guidance is effective for annual reporting periods after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within that reporting period. Early application is not permitted. The Corporation will evaluate how the adoption of ASU 2014-09 will impact its financial position and result of operations.
Managements Plan The Corporations consolidated financial statements were prepared on a going concern basis, which assumes continuity of operations and realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the ordinary course of business. Due to recurring losses, the Corporation experienced negative cash flows from operating activities. As a result, the Corporation has utilized its cash, investments in U.S. Treasury Bills, proceeds from the sale of assets and borrowings from the cash surrender of life insurance policies. The level of
26

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)
NOTE 1 | Nature of Operations, Accounting Policies of Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued) |
Managements Plan (Continued)
historical negative cash flows from operations and not having available funding from outside financing sources raise substantial doubt about the Corporations ability to continue as a going concern. To continue as a going concern, certain strategies need to be pursued to raise capital, increase sales and decrease costs. These strategies include but are not limited to:
| Addressing declining recreational vehicle sales by evaluating its model lineup to more closely meet consumer needs. Specifically, at an exclusive meeting of recreational vehicle dealers held in June 2014, the Corporation announced for fiscal year 2015 the introduction of the Dart; Javelin; and Trident brands. These new brands, coupled with a redesigned Nomad and Layton brands, are believed by management to be products that will appeal to both recreational vehicles dealers and consumers. In addition, subsequent to May 31, 2014, management consolidated the operations of the Elkhart, Indiana recreational vehicle facility into its Bristol, Indiana recreational vehicle facility. This consolidation is expected to increase manufacturing efficiencies and decrease costs. |
| Increasing sales at the Mansfield, Texas housing facility by gaining a greater presence on the properties of manufactured housing dealers and manufactured housing communities. Furthermore, efforts are being made to reduce costs and gain manufacturing efficiencies as the facility transitions from a startup to a continuing operation. |
| Continuing to work with manufactured housing communities to identify opportunities for increasing sales |
| Increasing efforts to increase sales of modular homes and park models in both the United States and Canada by cultivating relationships with modular housing developers and campground owners that are outside the Corporations historical distribution channels |
| Maintaining the number of display models at housing facilities in order to provide dealers, communities and consumers with examples of newly designed product |
| Selling non-strategic assets, such as an idle housing facility in Ocala, Florida and undeveloped land in McMinnville, Oregon, to generate cash and eliminate carrying costs |
| Working with current and potential vendors to decrease costs |
| Analyzing staffing needs and making reductions when considered appropriate by management |
| Continuing to seek debt financing that is acceptable with respect to cost and structure |
As with any business enterprise, the Corporations ability to operate as a going concern is contingent upon the successful execution of its strategies. Management, however, is prepared to modify these strategies to meet prevailing business conditions.
NOTE 2 | Restricted Cash |
During fiscal 2013, the Corporation entered into an agreement to build and sell 60 manufactured homes to Stewart Homes, Inc., one of its dealers. Stewart Homes Inc. also entered into an agreement to sell these homes to Oakridge Family Homes, L.P., a California limited partnership. As a function of Oakridge Family Homes, L.P. purchasing the 60 homes, the Corporation pledged a $600,000 certificate of deposit as security for certain performances.
In December 2013, the terms of the certificate of deposit proceeds and security agreement were completed; resulting in the maturation of the certificate of deposit and the receipt of the certificate of deposit proceeds.

NOTE 11 | Income Taxes (Continued) |
At May 31, 2014, the Corporation had gross federal net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $90 million and gross state net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $102 million. The federal net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards have a life expectancy between sixteen and twenty years. The state net operating loss carryforwards have a life expectancy, depending on the state where a loss was incurred, between five and twenty years. If the Corporation, after considering future negative and positive evidence regarding the realization of deferred tax assets, determines that a lesser valuation allowance is warranted, it would record a reduction to income tax expense and the valuation allowance in the period of determination.
Income tax returns are filed in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and in several state jurisdictions. For the majority of taxing jurisdictions the Corporation is no longer subject to examination by taxing authorities for years before 2010. The Corporation did not incur any interest or penalties related to income tax matters in fiscal years 2014 and 2013.
The Corporation has no unrecognized tax benefits in its financial statements during fiscal years 2014 and 2013, and does not expect any significant changes related to unrecognized tax benefits in the twelve months following May 31, 2014.
NOTE 12 | Commitments and Contingencies |
The Corporation was contingently liable at May 31, 2014, under repurchase agreements with certain financial institutions providing inventory financing for dealers of its products. Under these arrangements, which are customary in the manufactured housing and recreational vehicle industries, the Corporation agrees to repurchase units in the event of default by the dealer at declining prices over the term of the agreement. The period to potentially repurchase units is between 12 to 24 months.
The maximum repurchase liability is the total amount that would be paid upon the default of the Corporations independent dealers. The maximum potential repurchase liability, without reduction for the resale value of the repurchased units, was approximately $63 million at May 31, 2014 and $71 million at May 31, 2013. As a result of favorable experience regarding repurchased units, which is largely due to the strength of dealers selling the Corporations products, the Corporation maintained at May 31, 2014 and 2013 a $100,000 loss reserve that is a component of other accrued liabilities.
The risk of loss under these agreements is spread over many dealers and financial institutions. The loss, if any, under these agreements is the difference between the repurchase cost and the resale value of the units. The Corporation estimates the fair value of this commitment considering both the contingent losses and the value of the guarantee. This amount has historically been insignificant. The Corporation believes that any potential loss under the agreements in effect at May 31, 2014 will not be material to its financial position or results of operations.
The amounts of obligations from repurchased units and incurred net losses for the periods presented are as follows:

The Corporation is a party to various pending legal proceedings in the normal course of business. Management believes that any losses resulting from such proceedings would not have a material adverse effect on the Corporations results of operations or financial position.

Item 9A. | Controls and Procedures. |
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
As of May 31, 2014, the Corporation conducted an evaluation, under the supervision and participation of management including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the Corporations disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934). Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Corporations disclosure controls and procedures are effective for the period ended May 31, 2014.
Managements Assessment on Internal Controls Over Financial Reporting
Management of the Corporation is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Internal control over financial reporting provides reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.
The Corporations internal control over financial reporting includes policies and procedures that: pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the Corporations assets; provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that the Corporations receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors; provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the Corporations assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Management of the Corporation has assessed the effectiveness of the Corporations internal control over financial reporting based on criteria established in Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission.
Managements assessment included an evaluation of the design of the Corporations internal control over financial reporting, and testing of the operational effectiveness of the Corporations internal control over financing reporting. Based on this assessment, management has concluded that the Corporations internal control over financial reporting was effective as of May 31, 2014. This annual report does not include an attestation report of the Corporations registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Managements report is not subject to attestation by the Corporations registered public accounting firm pursuant to rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit the Corporation to provide only managements report in this annual report.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
No change in the Corporations internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(f)) occurred during the fiscal quarter ended May 31, 2014 that materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Corporations internal control over financial reporting.
