Item 1.

Business.

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 1,948 manufactured homes and 380 modular homes in fiscal 2012.

The Corporation’s 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 5,004 recreational vehicles in fiscal 2012, 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 13, 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 Corporation’s 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 Corporation’s recreational vehicles include travel trailers, fifth wheels and park models. Travel trailers and fifth wheels are marketed under the following trademarks: “Aljo”; “Bobcat”; “Koala”; “Layton”; “Mountain View”; “Nomad”; “Texan”; “Wagoneer”; “Walkabout” and “Weekender”. Park models are marketed under the following trademarks: “Cabin Series”; “Cedar Cove”; “Kensington”; “Shore Park Homes”; and “Vacation Villa”. The Corporation’s 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).

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 Corporation’s 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 Corporation’s homes are distributed by approximately 210 independent dealers at 320 locations throughout the United States and Canada, and recreational vehicles are distributed by approximately 210 independent dealers at 240 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 Corporation’s 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 Corporation’s 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 year 2012, and $1,000 of losses in fiscal year 2011. Additional information regarding these repurchase agreements is included in Note 9, 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 Corporation’s 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.

Dependence Upon Individual Customers

The Corporation does not rely upon any single dealer for a significant percentage of its business in any industry segment.

Item 1.

Business — (Continued).

Backlog

The Corporation does not consider the existence and extent of backlog to be significant in its business. The Corporation’s 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 Corporation’s 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 Corporation’s 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 Corporation’s competitive position on a calendar and fiscal year basis in the product lines it sells.


	Units Shipped Calendar Year 2011							Units Shipped Calendar Year 2010
	Industry		Skyline		Market Share			Industry		Skyline		Market Share
Manufactured housing		52,000		1,880		3.6	%		50,000		1,894		3.8	%
Domestic modular housing		12,000		246		2.1	%		13,000		216		1.7	%

The competitive position for Canadian modular housing is not listed because industry data is not available.


	Units Shipped Fiscal Year 2012							Units Shipped Fiscal Year 2011
	Industry		Skyline		Market Share			Industry		Skyline		Market Share
Manufactured housing		56,000		1,948		3.5	%		47,000		1,925		4.1	%
Travel trailer		161,000		4,610		2.9	%		150,000		4,335		2.9	%
Fifth wheels		62,000		232		0.4	%		58,000		207		0.4	%

The competitive position for modular housing and park models in fiscal 2012 is not listed because industry data is not available.

Both the housing and recreational vehicle segments of the Corporation’s 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 Corporation’s business in the past and may do so in the future.

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.

Item 1.

Business — (Continued).

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 HUD’s 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 Magnuson-Moss Warranty — Federal Trade Commission Improvement Act, which regulates warranties on consumer products.

The Corporation’s 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 Corporation’s 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 Corporation’s 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 1,100 people at the present time.

Executive Officers of the Corporation

Information regarding the Corporation’s executive officers is located in this document under Part III, Item 10.

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.

Retail Financing Availability

Customers who purchase the Corporation’s 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 Corporation’s 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 Corporation’s products generally finance their inventory purchases with wholesale floor plan financing provided by lending institutions. A dealer’s ability to obtain financing is significantly affected by the number of lending institutions offering floor planning, and by an institution’s 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 dealer’s ability to purchase manufactured housing, modular housing and recreational vehicle products, resulting in lower 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 Corporation’s products, and may choose to sell competitor’s 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.

Item 1A.

Risk Factors — (Continued).

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.

Contingent Repurchase Agreements

As referenced in Note 9 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.

Cost and Availability of Raw Materials

Prices and availability of raw materials used to manufacture the Corporation’s 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. 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.

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 Corporation’s competitors are vertically integrated by owning retail, consumer finance and insurance operations. This integration may provide competitors with an advantage. In addition, the Corporation’s 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.

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 continued weakness in demand in one or both of the Corporation’s market segments, could materially impact the Corporation’s net sales, operating results and cash flows.

Item 1A.

Risk Factors — (Continued).

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.

Increased Fuel Prices

The Corporation’s recreational vehicle products depend on the use of vehicles that operate on gasoline or diesel fuel. In the Corporation’s 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.

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 Corporation’s 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.

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.

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 2012. While the Corporation’s management is pursuing strategies as referenced in Item 7 to increase sales and decrease costs, no one can predict with certainty what the future may hold. Continued losses could negatively affect the Corporation’s liquidity.

In addition, the Corporation owns undeveloped land in Elkhart, Indiana and McMinnville, Oregon. In the second quarter of fiscal 2012, the Corporation sold idle housing facilities in Ocala, Florida and Ephrata, Pennsylvania. The sales resulted in gains of $1,114,000 and $1,386,000, respectively.

It is extremely difficult to determine the unit productive capacity of the Corporation because of the ever-changing product mix. The Corporation believes that its plant facilities, machinery and equipment are well maintained and are in good operating condition.

Item 3.

Legal Proceedings.

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 Corporation’s results of operations or financial position.

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

Overview

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. To better serve the needs of its dealers and communities, the Corporation has eleven manufacturing facilities in nine states. Manufactured housing, modular housing and recreational vehicles are sold to dealers and communities either through floor plan financing with various financial institutions or on a cash basis. While the Corporation maintains production of manufactured housing, modular homes and recreational vehicles throughout the year, seasonal fluctuations in sales do occur. Sales and production of manufactured housing and modular housing are affected by winter weather conditions at the Corporation’s northern plants. Recreational vehicle sales are generally higher in the spring and summer months than in the fall and winter months.

As referenced in Item 1, manufactured and modular housing are marketed under a number of trademarks, and are available in a variety of dimensions. Manufactured housing products 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. Recreational vehicles include travel trailers, fifth wheels and park models. Travel trailers and fifth wheels are marketed under the following trademarks: “Aljo”; “Bobcat”; “Koala”; “Layton”; “Mountain View”; “Nomad”; “Texan”; “Wagoneer”; “Walkabout”; and “Weekender”. Park models are marketed under the following trademarks: “Cabin Series”; “Cedar Cove”; “Kensington”; “Shore Park Homes”; and “Vacation Villa”. The Corporation’s recreational vehicles are intended to provide temporary living accommodations for individuals seeking leisure travel and outdoor recreation.

Item 7.

Management’s 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 has until recently been affected by a continuing decline in sales. This decline, caused primarily by adverse economic conditions, tightening retail and wholesale credit markets and a depressed site-built housing market, is resulting in historically low industry shipments. Total shipments for calendar 2011 were approximately 52,000 units, a 4 percent increase from the previous year’s total of approximately 50,000 units. In addition, total shipments from January to May 2012 were approximately 23,000 units, an approximately 25 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 2005 to 2011, total shipments decreased from approximately 43,000 to 12,000 units, a decline of 72 percent. 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 industry sales will benefit from stronger economic growth, increased job opportunities and easing consumer credit. These benefits, however, will remain small by historical standards.

Fiscal 2012 Results

The Corporation experienced the following results during fiscal 2012:

Total net sales were $182,846,000, a 13 percent increase from the $162,327,000 reported in the same period a year ago.

Housing net sales were $109,157,000, an 11 percent increase from the $97,922,000 realized in fiscal 2011.

Recreational vehicle net sales were $73,689,000 in fiscal 2012, a 14 percent increase from $64,405,000 in fiscal 2011.

Net loss for the fiscal 2012 was $19,365,000 as compared to $26,627,000 for fiscal 2011. On a per share basis, net loss was $2.31 as compared to $3.17 for the comparable period a year ago.

The Corporation closed its housing facility in Fair Haven, Vermont due to weak demand in the New England market. Production ceased in October 2011. Independent dealers and communities that purchased homes from the Fair Haven facility now have their product needs met by the Corporation’s facility in Leola, Pennsylvania.

The Corporation closed its recreational vehicle facility in Hemet, California due to weak demand in its market area; primarily states in the Pacific and Rocky Mountain regions. Operations concluded in April 2012. Dealers that purchased recreational vehicles from this facility now have their product needs met by the Corporation’s facilities in Bristol and Elkhart, Indiana.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations — (Continued).

Fiscal 2012 Results — (Continued)

The Corporation sold in the second quarter idle housing facilities in Ocala, Florida and Ephrata, Pennsylvania. The gain on the sale of these facilities was $1,114,000 and $1,386,000, respectively. In addition, the Corporation sold its aircraft in the fourth quarter for a gain of $684,000.

As referenced in Note 9 of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements, the Corporation reached a settlement in the case of FEMA Formaldehyde Product Liability Litigation, Multidistrict Litigation No. 1873. The settlement resulted in the Corporation incurring a charge of approximately $400,000 in the third quarter. The total settlement of $737,000 was remitted to the United States District Court, Eastern District of Louisiana during the fourth quarter.

The Board of Directors approved a resolution in the third quarter to suspend dividend payments on the outstanding shares of the Corporation’s common stock until further notice. The suspension was for cash preservation purposes. The Board will evaluate financial performance and liquidity needs in determining the timing and amount of future dividend payments.

The Corporation’s housing segment experienced increased net sales in fiscal 2012 as compared to prior year, and management cannot determine with certainty if the increase is sustainable. This uncertainty is based on continuing negative economic conditions previously referenced.

The recreational vehicle segment experienced increased net sales in fiscal 2012. Regarding the business environment for fiscal 2013, the RVIA forecasts calendar 2012 travel trailer and fifth wheel shipments of approximately 229,000 units; an 8 percent increase from calendar 2011’s total of approximately 213,000 units. The RVIA also forecasts calendar 2013 travel trailer and fifth wheel shipments of approximately 239,000 units; a 4 percent increase from calendar year 2012’s total. Despite this favorable trend, business conditions in fiscal 2013 could be negatively impacted by adverse factors previously referenced by the RVIA.

The Corporation actively pursued and continues to pursue strategies to increase sales and decrease costs. These strategies include but are not limited to:

Increasing efforts to increase sales of modular homes and park models in both the United States and Canada

Improving the process of developing homes and recreational vehicles to better meet ever changing preferences of consumers

Increasing the number of display models at housing facilities in order to provide dealers, communities and consumers with examples of newly designed product

Redesigning the Corporation’s website and utilizing social media to improve product exposure to customers and to better connect dealers to potential customers

Selling non-strategic assets such as the Florida and Pennsylvania facilities

Working with current and potential vendors to decrease costs

Analyzing staffing needs and making reductions when appropriate.

By implementing these strategies, and having a significant position of its working capital in cash and U.S. Treasury Bills, the Corporation continues to remain diligent for any challenges that may occur.

Results of Operations — Fiscal 2012 Compared to Fiscal 2011 — (Continued)

Net Sales and Unit Shipments — (Continued)

Housing unit shipments increased approximately 6 percent. The increase was the outcome of:

Domestic manufactured housing shipments increasing approximately 3 percent

Canadian manufactured housing shipments decreasing 100 percent

Domestic modular shipments increasing approximately 22 percent

Canadian modular shipments increasing approximately 147 percent.

Total domestic manufactured housing unit shipments increased approximately 3 percent. Industry unit shipments for these products increased approximately 19 percent during fiscal 2012 as compared to the same period a year ago. Current industry unit shipment data for modular housing is not available. Adverse conditions that caused the Corporation’s unit shipments to lag the industry include:

Competitors providing wholesale financing to dealers, thereby creating greater sales opportunities

Unit shipment growth occurring in states where the Corporation has no or minimal sales activity due primarily to a lack of either manufacturing facilities or an established independent dealer network

The Federal Emergency Management Agency purchasing a large quantity of emergency housing units. The Corporation does not sell directly to governmental entities, nor did it have an independent dealer compete in the bidding process.

Compared to prior year, the average net sales price for domestic manufactured housing increased approximately 4 percent; primarily due to sales price adjustments resulting from higher material costs. The average net sales price for Canadian modular housing products increased approximately 9 percent. The increase is the result of homes being sold with larger square footage and greater amenities. The average net sales price for domestic modular housing products decreased slightly.

Recreational vehicles net sales increased approximately 14 percent. The increase was the outcome of:

Domestic recreational vehicle net sales increasing approximately 15 percent

Canadian recreational vehicle net sales increasing approximately 13 percent.

Recreational vehicle unit shipments increased approximately 6 percent. The increase the outcome of:

Domestic recreational vehicle shipments increasing approximately 8 percent

Canadian recreational vehicle shipments increasing approximately 1 percent.

The average net sales price per unit for recreational vehicle products in fiscal year 2012 as compared to fiscal year 2011 increased approximately 8 percent. The increase is due to sales price adjustments with respect to increased material costs. In addition, the average net sales price increased as result of a shift in consumer preference toward recreational vehicles with higher price points; either through more square footage or greater amenities.

*	The percentages for housing and recreational vehicles are based on segment net sales. The percentage for consolidated cost of sales is based on total net sales.

Housing cost of sales rose primarily due to an increase in unit shipments. As a percentage of net sales, cost of sales decreased due to certain manufacturing expenses being fixed amid rising sales.

Recreational vehicle cost of sales rose primarily due to an increase in unit shipments. As a percentage of net sales, cost of sales decreased due to material cost as a percentage of net sales declining as a result of a shift in consumer preference toward products with higher price points.

*	The percentages for housing and recreational vehicles are based on segment net sales. The percentage for general corporate expenses and total operating loss are based on total net sales.

The operating loss for housing and recreational vehicles decreased due to increased unit shipments and improved margins. In addition, the housing segment also had decreased selling and administrative expenses.

General corporate expenses increased due to a $300,000 charge for the corporation’s liability for retirement and death benefits offered to certain current employees or former employees. The charge occurred as a result of a change in the interest rate used in valuing the liability.

In the second quarter of fiscal 2012, the Corporation sold idle housing facilities in Ocala, Florida and Ephrata, Pennsylvania. The sales resulted in gains of $1,114,000 and $1,386,000, respectively. In addition, the Corporation sold its aircraft in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2012 for a gain of $684,000.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

	(Dollars in thousands)
Cash and U.S. Treasury Bills	$	29,009	$	44,721	$	15,712
Current assets, exclusive of cash and U.S. Treasury Bills	$	22,461	$	23,660	$	1,199
Current liabilities	$	14,681	$	14,716	$	35
Working capital	$	36,789	$	53,665	$	16,876

The Corporation’s policy is to invest its excess cash, which exceeds its operating needs, in U.S. Government Securities. Cash and U.S. Treasury Bills decreased due primarily to a net loss of $19,365,000 and dividends paid of $1,510,000; offset by $5,054,000 received from the sale of idle property, plant and equipment.

Current assets, exclusive of cash and U.S. Treasury Bills, decreased primarily due to a $278,000 decrease in Accounts receivable, and a $560,000 decrease in Other current assets. Accounts receivable declined due to the timing of payments from dealers and communities at May 31, 2012 as compared to May 31, 2011. Other current assets declined as a result of a refund of a workers’ compensation deposit that was received in June 2011.

Capital expenditures totaled $614,000 for fiscal 2012 as compared to $816,000 for fiscal 2011. Capital expenditures were made primarily to replace or refurbish machinery and equipment in addition to improving manufacturing efficiencies. In the third quarter of fiscal 2009, the Corporation began a project to implement an enterprise resource planning (ERP) system. The project is expected to last until the end of fiscal 2013, and the cost is to be paid out of the Corporation’s normal budget for capital expenditures. The amount of capital expended for this project through May 31, 2012 is approximately $956,000. The amount of capital expended in fiscal 2012 was approximately $21,000, while the amount expended in fiscal 2011 was approximately $85,000. The goal of the ERP system is to obtain better decision-making information, to react quicker to changes in market conditions, and lower the Corporation’s technology costs.

In the third quarter of fiscal 2012, the Board of Directors approved a resolution to suspend dividend payments on the outstanding shares of the Corporation’s common stock until further notice. The suspension was for cash preservation purposes. The Board will evaluate financial performance and liquidity needs in determining the timing and amount of future dividend payments.

The Corporation’s current cash and other short-term investments are expected to be adequate to fund operating cash needs in addition to any capital expenditures for the upcoming fiscal year. Although the Corporation has experienced decreased liquidity, its financing needs have been met with a combination of cash on hand and funds generated through the sale of assets. In addition, various strategies are being pursued to improve financial performance. These strategies are referenced in the “Fiscal 2012” section of Item 7.

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.

Item 7.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations — (Continued).

Critical Accounting Policies — (Continued)

Deferred Tax Assets — (Continued)

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 carryfowards, state net operating loss carryfowards and temporary differences between financial and tax reporting. Additional information regarding the increase in the valuation allowance is referenced in Note 8 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

Revenue Recognition

The Corporation’s accounting for revenue recognition is referenced in Note 1 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

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 management’s judgment regarding anticipated rates of warranty claims. Significant changes in these factors could have a material impact on future results of operations.

Newly Issued Accounting Standards

The effect of newly issued accounting standards on the Corporation is addressed in Note 1 of the Notes 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

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

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Shareholders and Board of Directors of Skyline Corporation:

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Skyline Corporation and subsidiary companies (the “Corporation”) as of May 31, 2012 and 2011, 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 Corporation’s 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 Corporation’s 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 financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Corporation as of May 31, 2012 and 2011, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

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 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 (the “Corporation”). All intercompany transactions have been eliminated.

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 and health insurance.

Revenue recognition — Substantially all of the Corporation’s 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 customer’s 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 Corporation’s 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 Corporation’s 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.

Property, Plant and Equipments — 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, 2012, Idle property, net of accumulated depreciation consisted of manufacturing facilities in the following locations: Hemet, California; Ocala, Florida; Elkhart, Indiana; Halstead, Kansas; Mocksville, North Carolina and Fair Haven, Vermont. At May 31, 2011, Idle property, net of accumulated depreciation consisted of manufacturing facilities in: Hemet, California; Ocala, Florida; Halstead Kansas; Mocksville, North Carolina and Ephrata, Pennsylvania.

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, 2012.

NOTE 1

Nature of Operations, Accounting Policies of Consolidated Financial Statements — (Continued)

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 Corporation’s 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 management’s 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 and Notes are included as investing activities. The Corporation’s cash flows from operating activities were not affected by income taxes in fiscal 2012 and 2011.

Recently issued accounting pronouncements — There have been no recently issued accounting pronouncements that had a material effect on the Corporation’s financial condition or results of operations.

Management’s Plan — The Corporation’s management actively pursued and continues to pursue strategies to increase sales and decrease costs. These strategies include but are not limited to:

Increasing efforts to increase sales of modular homes and park models in both the United States and Canada

Improving the process of developing homes and recreational vehicles to better meet ever changing preferences of consumers

Increasing the number of display models at housing facilities in order to provide dealers, communities and consumers with examples of newly designed product

Redesigning the Corporation’s website and utilizing social media to improve product exposure to customers and to better connect dealers to potential customers

Streamlining operations as evidenced by the closure of the Vermont and California facilities

Selling non-strategic assets such as the Florida and Pennsylvania facilities and the aircraft

Working with current and potential vendors to decrease costs

Analyzing staffing needs and making reductions when appropriate.

Net deferred tax assets	$	—		$	—

The Corporation’s gross deferred tax assets of approximately $37 million consist of approximately $24 million in federal net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards, $7 million in state net operating loss carryforwards and $6 million resulting from temporary differences between financial and tax reporting. The federal net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards have a life expectancy of 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.

For the majority of taxing jurisdictions the Corporation is no longer subject to examination by taxing authorities for years before 2008. The Corporation did not incur any interest or penalties related to income tax matters in fiscal years 2012 and 2011.

NOTE 9

Commitments and Contingencies

The Corporation was contingently liable at May 31, 2012, 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.

Skyline Corporation and Subsidiary Companies

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements — (Continued)

NOTE 9

Commitments and Contingencies — (Continued)

The maximum repurchase liability is the total amount that would be paid upon the default of the Corporation’s independent dealers. The maximum potential repurchase liability, without reduction for the resale value of the repurchased units, was approximately $64 million at May 31, 2012 and $52 million at May 31, 2011.

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, 2012 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:


	Year Ended May 31,
	2012		2011
	(Dollars in thousands)
Number of units repurchased		—		1
Obligations from units repurchased	$	—	$	14
Net losses on repurchased units	$	—	$	1

The Corporation is a party to various legal proceedings in the normal course of business. One settled proceeding in particular is the case of FEMA Trailer Formaldehyde Product Liability Litigation, Multidistrict Litigation (“MDL”) No. 1873, before the United States District Court, Eastern District of Louisiana. This MDL relates to alleged formaldehyde exposure in emergency housing units provided by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (“FEMA”) to individuals displaced by Hurricanes Katrina and Rita. Although the Corporation did not have a contract with FEMA, its independent recreational vehicle dealers sold recreational vehicles to the agency.

During the third quarter of fiscal 2012, the court presiding over the MDL issued an order to have plaintiffs and defendants participate in mediation. From this mediation the Corporation and the plaintiffs agreed to a settlement of $737,000. In accruing for the settlement, an expense of approximately $400,000 was recognized in the third quarter. The Corporation remitted the $737,000 to the United States District Court, Eastern District of Louisiana in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2012.

The Corporation believes that any losses from any pending legal proceedings would not have a material adverse effect on the results of operations or financial position.

The Corporation leases office and manufacturing equipment under non-cancelable operating lease agreements. Leases have various renewal terms, and generally provide that the Corporation pays the cost of insurance, taxes and maintenance. Lease expense totaled approximately $440,000 and $381,000 for fiscal years 2012 and 2011, respectively.

The Corporation utilizes a combination of insurance coverage and self-insurance for certain items, including workers’ compensation and group health benefits. Liabilities for workers’ compensation are recognized for estimated future medical costs and indemnity costs. Liabilities for group health benefits are recognized for claims incurred but not paid. Insurance reserves are estimated based upon a combination of historical data and actuarial information. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

NOTE 10

Treasury Stock

The Corporation’s Board of directors from time to time has authorized the repurchase of shares of the Corporation’s common stock, in the open market or through negotiated transactions, at such times and at such prices as management may decide. In fiscal 2012 and 2011, the Corporation did not acquire any shares of its common stock. At May 31, 2012, the Corporation had authorization to repurchase an additional 391,300 of its common stock.

NOTE 11

Profit Sharing and 401(K) Plans

The Corporation has two defined contribution profit sharing plans (“Plans”), which together cover substantially all of its employees. The Corporation has the right to modify, suspend or discontinue contributions. Assets of the Plans are invested primarily in mutual funds which have as underlying assets United States Government Securities. No contributions were made for the fiscal years ended May 31, 2012 and 2011.

The Corporation has an employee savings plan (the “401(k) Plan”) that is intended to provide participating employees with an additional method of saving for retirement. The 401(k) Plan covers all employees who meet certain minimum participation requirements. The Corporation does not currently provide a matching contribution to the 401(k) Plan.

On June 1, 2012, the assets of the two Profit Sharing Plans merged into the 401(k) Plan. Additional information regarding the merger is located in the “Defined Contribution Profit Sharing and 401(k) Plan” section of the Corporation’s 2012 Proxy Statement.

NOTE 12

Retirement and Death Benefit Plans

The Corporation has entered into various arrangements with certain employees or former employees for benefits to be paid in the following manner:

to an employee’s estate in the event of death

to an employee in the event of retirement or disability to be paid over 10 years beginning at the date of retirement or disability

in the event of death, the employee’s beneficiary will receive the balance due the employee

The Corporation also purchased life insurance contracts on the covered employees or former employees. The present value of the principal cost of such arrangements is being accrued over the period from the date of such arrangements to full eligibility using a discount rate of 4.5 percent in fiscal 2012 and 5.5 percent in fiscal 2011. The current and non-current amounts accrued for such arrangements totaled $6,316,000 and $6,049,000 at May 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively. The amount charged to operations under these arrangements was $414,000 and $101,000 for fiscal 2012 and 2011, respectively.

NOTE 13

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As of May 31, 2012, 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 Corporation’s 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 Corporation’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective for the period ended May 31, 2012.

Management’s 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 Corporation’s 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 Corporation’s 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 Corporation’s 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 Corporation’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Management of the Corporation has assessed the effectiveness of the Corporation’s 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.

Management’s assessment included an evaluation of the design of the Corporation’s internal control over financial reporting, and testing of the operational effectiveness of the Corporation’s internal control over financing reporting. Based on this assessment, management has concluded that the Corporation’s internal control over financial reporting was effective as of May 31, 2012.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

No change in the Corporation’s 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, 2012 that materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Corporation’s internal control over financial reporting.

Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer Certifications

The Corporation’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission the certifications required by Section 302 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 as Exhibits 31.1 and 31.2 to the Corporation’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2012. In addition, on September 26, 2011 the Corporation’s Chief Executive Officer certified to the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) that he was not aware of any violation by the Corporation of the NYSE corporate governance listing standards as in effect on September 26, 2011.
