Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Performance
The following graph summarizes the cumulative total return* on our stock price compared to the S&P 600 Index and a group of our peers for the previous five years. There is no currently available published index of companies involved in the same businesses as ours. The peer group consists of the following companies: Cavalier Homes, Inc., Champion Enterprises, Inc., Coachmen Industries, Inc., Monaco Coach Corporation, National R.V. Holdings Inc., Palm Harbor Homes, Inc., Skyline Corp., Thor Industries, Inc., and Winnebago Industries, Inc. The peer group contains the largest public companies in our industries, the performance of which investment analysts generally compare to our performance. None of these companies is truly comparable to us. Most are smaller, some are involved only in manufactured housing and others only in recreational vehicles and some own retail businesses and are vertically integrated.
