PART III — NARRATIVE State below in reasonable detail why Forms 10-K, 20-F, 11-K, 10-Q, 10-D, N-SAR, N-CSR, or the transition report or portion thereof, could not be filed within the prescribed time period. Monaco Coach Corporation (the “Registrant”) is filing this Form 12b-25 with respect to its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended January 3, 2009 (the “2008 Form 10-K”), because it needs additional time to complete its year-end close process, complete its financial statements and complete its assessment of internal control over financial reporting as of January 3, 2009. The Registrant filed for protection under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code on March 5, 2009. Prior to and since the bankruptcy filing, the Registrant has been immersed in pre-bankruptcy and bankruptcy-related matters, including valuation of assets, preparation of financial projections and formulation and preparation of disclosure materials to the United States Trustee’s office and the Bankruptcy Court, formulating a plan of reorganization, and obtaining Debtor-In-Possession (DIP) financing. Filing for protection under Chapter 11 and the uncertainty regarding the ability to successfully complete the Company’s reorganization plan, including obtaining the related DIP financing, these conditions raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. At the same time, the Registrant has experienced attrition of certain key personnel within its accounting organization, including, in particular, the resignations of certain key personnel in the corporate consolidations and SEC reporting functions. In addition, as a result of the process of impairment testing and estimating the fair value of impaired assets, among other things, the Registrant requires additional time to complete its year-end close process, complete its financial statements and complete its assessment of internal control over financial reporting. In order to complete its year-end close process, complete its financial statements and complete its assessment of internal control over financial reporting, the Company must finalize impairment testing in order to estimate the fair value of impaired assets, among other things. As the Company completes its assessment of internal control over financial reporting, it is possible that material weaknesses will be identified. Accordingly, the Registrant is not able to file its 2008 Form 10-K in a timely manner without unreasonable effort or expense. The Registrant believes that, despite efforts to file its Form 10-K, it is likely that it will need additional time beyond April 3, 2009, to file its 2008 Form 10-K. If the Registrant is not able to complete its financial statements and file the 2008 Form 10-K by April 3, 2009, the Registrant will file the 2008 Form 10-K as soon as reasonably practicable after that date. | ||||||||||

ATTACHMENT
Significant Change in Results of Operations
The Registrant anticipates that the earnings statements to be included in its 2008 Form 10-K will reflect a significant change in its results of operations from the fiscal year ended 2007. Specifically, the Registrant had previously reported on its September 27, 2008 Form 10-Q a net loss of $89.9 million for the nine months then ended compared to net income of $12 million for the entire year in 2007. The Registrant is assessing its long-lived assets for impairment and believes it is probable it will report a material impairment charge for the period ending December 31, 2008; however, the Registrant is still evaluating the results of its assessment and is not able at this time to estimate the amount or range of this potential charge.
