prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim
financial information and with the instructions to Article 10 of Regulation S-X.
Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required
by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements.
In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring
accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included.
Operating results for the three month period ended April 3, 1999 are not
necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full 1999
fiscal year. For further information, refer to the Company's consolidated
financial statements and footnotes thereto for the year ended January 2, 1999.

3. Acquisition
On January 29, 1999, the Company acquired Kitchen Craft of Canada, Ltd.
("Kitchen Craft") for a purchase price of approximately $54 million. The
transaction was accounted for as a purchase. The accounts and transactions of
Kitchen Craft are included in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial
statements from the date of acquisition. As
-6-
<PAGE>
more fully described in the Form 10-K, the acquisition was financed by
additional equity and long-term debt, primarily senior bank term loans payable
over approximately six years. Pro forma results for the fiscal 1999 and 1998
first quarters, assuming the acquisition had occurred at the beginning of the
periods, are as follows (in thousands):

4. Comprehensive Income
Comprehensive income was $2,953,754 and $583,269 for the three months ended
April 3, 1999 and March 28, 1998, respectively.
5. Guarantor and Non-guarantor Subsidiaries
The Company's senior subordinated notes in aggregate principal amount of $100
million are fully and unconditionally guaranteed by Panther Transport, Inc.
("Panther"), the Company's only wholly-owned subsidiary prior to 1999. Separate
financial statements or summarized financial information for Panther have not
been presented since its operations are inconsequential and its accounts and
transactions represent less than 1% of each of the consolidated total assets,
liabilities, equity, net sales, operating income, and net income of the Company.
Management believes that the separate financial statements and summarized
financial information of Panther are not material to investors.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations.
General
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the
accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for the period ended
April 3, 1999 and the Company's audited consolidated financial statements and
Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ending January 2, 1999.
1999 Kitchen Craft Acquisition
On January 29, 1999, the Company consummated the acquisition of Kitchen
Craft of Canada, Ltd. ("Kitchen Craft") as further described in the Notes to
Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. The acquisition was accounted for
as a purchase, with Kitchen Craft consolidated with the Company effective from
the acquisition date forward. Accordingly, the Company's results of operations
for the fiscal 1999 first quarter reflect two months of results of Kitchen
Craft.
Results of Operations
Net Sales for the three months ended April 3, 1999 ("first quarter 1999") were
$60.4 million compared to $39.0 million for the comparable period in 1998
("first quarter 1998"), an increase of 55.0%. The increase in net sales in the
first quarter 1999 was primarily attributable to the acquisition of Kitchen
Craft, strong consumer spending on remodeling projects, and high new housing
starts. First quarter 1999 net sales included $13.6 million for Kitchen Craft
(two months), with none included in first quarter 1998 results. Net sales of
the Omega lines (custom and semi-custom cabinetry and bath vanities) were $21.7
million in the first quarter 1999 compared to $19.7 million for the first
quarter 1998, a 10.0% increase. Strong Omega custom sales resulting from 1998
new product introductions drove this increase partly offset by soft vanity sales
resulting from poor delivery performance during the fourth quarter 1998. Net
sales of HomeCrest stock cabinetry were $25.2 million in the first quarter 1999
compared to $19.3 million in first quarter 1998, an increase of 30.5%. Strong
sales from existing dealers, impact of new dealers, and strong new housing
starts drove this growth.
Gross Profit for the first quarter 1999 was $17.3 million compared to $9.9
million for the first quarter in 1998, an increase of 73.9%. As a percentage
of net sales, gross profit increased to 28.6% in the first quarter 1999 from
25.5% in first quarter 1998, primarily as a result of higher pricing at every
division, strong material and labor productivity and favorable product mix.
Every division experienced gross margin improvements during first quarter 1999
compared with first quarter 1998.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses for the first quarter 1999 were
$7.2 million compared to $4.8 million for the first quarter 1998, an increase of
48.6%. The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses can be
attributed primarily to Kitchen Craft expenses of $1.8 million, which were not
included in the first quarter 1998 results, and higher sales commissions related
to revenue
-10-
<PAGE>
growth. As a percentage of net sales, selling, general and administrative
expenses declined to 11.9% in the first quarter 1999 from 12.4% in the first
quarter 1998, primarily due to non-recurring costs in 1998 supporting various
sales growth initiatives, partly offset by the addition of Kitchen Craft whose
costs are a higher percentage of net sales than the other two divisions.
Operating Income for the first quarter 1999 was $9.6 million compared to $4.7
million for the first quarter 1998, an increase of 101.7%. As a percentage of
sales, operating income increased to 15.8% for the first quarter 1999 from 12.2%
for the first quarter 1998, primarily attributable to the contribution of
Kitchen Craft, sales price increases, and aggressive product and overhead cost
control.
Interest Expense for the first quarter 1999 was $4.3 million compared to $3.8
million for the first quarter 1998, an increase of 13.2%, primarily due to
increased borrowings associated with the 1999 Kitchen Craft acquisition, partly
offset by lower interest rates on senior debt.
Income Taxes for the first quarter 1999 reflected an effective tax rate of 38.7%
compared to 38.2% for the first quarter 1998. The increase was primarily
attributable to a slightly higher effective tax rate at Kitchen Craft.
Net Income for the first quarter 1999 was $3.2 million compared to $0.6 million
for the first quarter 1998. The increase in net income for the first quarter
1999 was primarily attributable to the Kitchen Craft acquisition as well as
other factors described.
Results of Operations-- Pro Forma
The historical consolidated results discussed above include Kitchen Craft
results only since the January 29, 1999 acquisition date. To provide more
insight into the underlying performance of the consolidated group, a pro forma
summary is shown below treating Kitchen Craft as if it has been acquired prior
to the first quarter 1998.

</TABLE>
____________
(1) Trailing twelve months through first quarter 1999.
(2) EBITDA Margin represents EBITDA as a percentage of net sales. EBITDA
represents income from operations before interest expense (including
amortization of deferred financing costs), income taxes, depreciation, and
amortization of goodwill. EBITDA is presented because it is a widely
accepted financial indicator of a leveraged company's ability to service
and/or incur indebtedness and because management believes that EBITDA is a
relevant measure of the Company's ability to generate cash without regard to
the Company's capital structure or working capital needs. EBITDA as
presented may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other
companies, depending upon the non-cash charges included. When evaluating
EBITDA, investors should consider that EBITDA (i) should not be considered
in isolation but together with other factors which may influence operating
and investing activities, such as changes in operating assets and
liabilities and purchase of property and equipment, (ii) is not a measure of
performance calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles, (iii) should not be construed as an alternative or substitute
for income from operations, net income or cash flows from operating
activities in analyzing the Company's operating performance, financial
position or cash flows and (iv) should not be used as an indicator of the
Company's operating performance or as a measure of its liquidity.
Pro Forma Net Sales for first quarter 1999 were $66.0 million compared with
$54.2 million for first quarter 1998, an increase of 21.8%. Net sales increased
because of strong new construction, sales of existing homes as well as the
introduction of new products, consistent customer satisfaction performance and
an increase in selling locations. In addition, Kitchen Craft sales to U.S.
dealers increased 47% and represented 54% of total Kitchen Craft net sales. The
Kitchen Craft sales growth in the first quarter
-12-
<PAGE>
1999 was driven by the addition of new selling locations, maturing of existing
dealers, and customer response to Kitchen Craft's outstanding delivery
performance.
Pro Forma EBITDA for the first quarter 1999 was $11.5 million compared with $7.2
million for the first quarter 1998, an increase of 61%. As a percentage of net
sales, EBITDA increased to 17.4% during the first quarter 1999 compared with
13.2% during the first quarter 1998. The increase in EBITDA and EBITDA margin
was primarily attributable to 22% pro forma sales growth, several price
increases introduced at each division, and aggressive product and overhead cost
control. In addition, Kitchen Craft EBITDA and EBITDA margin increased during
the first quarter 1999 compared to the first quarter 1998 as a result of higher
sales of semi-custom cabinetry to U.S. dealers that have substantially higher
margins than stock cabinetry or sales in Canada.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company's primary cash needs are working capital, capital expenditures
and debt service. The Company has financed these cash requirements primarily
through internally generated cash flow and funds borrowed under the Company's
credit facilities.
Net cash provided by operating activities for the first quarter 1999 was $2.4
million as compared to $4.1 million for the first quarter 1998, a decrease of
$1.7 million. The decrease was primarily due to increases in receivables due to
higher first quarter 1999 sales. Net income as adjusted for non-cash charges
was $5.2 million for the first quarter 1999 compared to $2.0 million for the
first quarter 1998 due to strong operating results, as previously discussed.
The Company used cash in investing activities of $56.2 million in the first
quarter 1999 compared to $0.8 million in the first quarter 1998. The cash used
in investing activities in first quarter 1999 primarily included $54.2 million
related to the Kitchen Craft acquisition, with $2.0 million of other capital
expenditures.
Cash used in financing activities was $56.2 million for the first quarter
1999 compared to $3.3 million for the first quarter 1998 with the cash used in
investing activities in first quarter 1999 primarily due to financing of the
Kitchen Craft acquisition and related financing costs.
The Company's ability to make scheduled payments of principal of, or to pay
the interest or premium, if any, on, or to refinance, its indebtedness, or to
fund planned capital expenditures will depend on its future performance, which,
to a certain extent, is subject to general economic, financial, competitive,
legislative, regulatory and other factors that are beyond its control. Based
upon the current level of operations, management believes that cash flow from
operations and available cash, together with available borrowings under its bank
loans, will be adequate to meet the Company's anticipated future requirements
for working capital, budgeted capital expenditures and scheduled payments of
principal and interest on its indebtedness for the next several years. There can
be no assurance that the Company's business will generate sufficient cash flow
from operations or that future borrowings will be available under its bank loans
in an amount sufficient to enable the Company to service its indebtedness or
make anticipated capital expenditures.

As a result of the fiscal 1999 acquisition of Kitchen Craft, the Company's
long-term debt structure has changed substantially. At April 3, 1999, the
Company's long-term debt consisted of (i) the $100.0 million of senior
subordinated notes; (ii) a U.S. senior credit facility, consisting of a $58.2
million term facility (the "U.S. Term Facility") and a $20.0 million revolving
facility (the "U.S. Revolving Facility"); and (iii) a Canadian senior credit
facility, consisting of a (Cdn) $22.0 million term facility (the "Canadian Term
Facility") and a (Cdn) $15.0 million revolving facility (the "Canadian Revolving
Facility").
As of April 3, 1999, the Company had additional borrowing availability of
$14.5 million under the U.S. Revolving Facility and (Cdn) $8.5 million under the
Canadian Revolving Facility. The U.S. Term Facility requires quarterly
principal payments which began in April 1999 at $1.0 million per quarter and
increasing at each September anniversary. Subsequent payments will be
approximately $1.3 million, $1.4 million, $1.8 million and $2.2 million per
quarter during the four quarter periods beginning September 1999, 2000, 2001,
and 2002, respectively, with $2.6 million payments due each quarter in 2004.
Additional payments are also due each year based on 75% of the Company's defined
excess cash flow, if any. The Canadian Term Facility requires quarterly
payments beginning in April 1999 at approximately (Cdn) $0.4 million per quarter
and increasing at each anniversary. Subsequent payments will be approximately
(Cdn) $0.5 million, (Cdn) $0.6 million, (Cdn) $0.8 million, (Cdn) $0.9 million
and (Cdn) $2.3 million per quarter during 2000, 2001, 2002, 2003, and 2004.
Both the U.S. and Canadian Term Facilities mature on December 31, 2004.
Revolving Facilities will mature on December 26, 2003 and have no scheduled
interim amortization.
Computer Systems and Year 2000
The Year 2000 issue, common to most companies, concerns the inability of
information technology, ("IT") and non-information technology ("non-IT") systems
to recognize and process date-sensitive information after 1999 due to the use of
only the last two digits to refer to a year. This problem could affect both
information systems (hardware and software) and other equipment that relies on
microprocessors. This could result in a system failure or miscalculations
causing disruptions of operations, including, among other things, a temporary
inability to process transactions, schedule production, send invoices, or engage
in similar normal business activities.
The Company has completed an assessment of its IT systems, both hardware and
software, and has developed a plan to timely address the Year 2000 issue.
Systems that interact with customers and that focus on the core business
functions of buying, manufacturing, selling and accounting have been given the
highest priority. Systems and equipment, particularly production equipment that
utilize embedded chips, that are not Year 2000 compliant have been identified
and remediation efforts are in process. Management estimates that nearly 70% of
the remediation efforts were completed as of January 2, 1999. Some of the
Company's current systems are being upgraded and others are being replaced with
Year 2000-compliant systems. System upgrades and replacements are being unit-
tested as they are completed. All remediation efforts and testing of
replacement systems are expected to be completed by September 1, 1999. The
Company is monitoring the need to develop contingency plans to remediate
information systems scheduled to be replaced in case delays in the installation
schedule for the new systems make remediation of the older systems
-14-
<PAGE>
necessary. The Company currently believes that it will complete all phases of
its plan without any material adverse consequences to its business, operation,
or financial condition.
The Company's assessment of its non-IT systems (including phone, voicemail,
heating/air-conditioning, electricity and security systems) was completed and
will be followed by any required renovations. The Company used internal
resources to address the Year 2000 Issue of its non-IT systems and has not
incurred significant separately identifiable costs and does not expect to incur
significant additional costs in order to upgrade its non-IT systems. All
validation and implementation of these non-IT systems is expected to be
completed by mid-1999.
The Company has spent approximately $1.2 million, to date, in the execution
of its Year 2000 plan. Total costs to address Year 2000 issues are currently
estimated not to exceed $2.0 million and consist primarily of costs for the
remediation of internal systems, including internal programming time. Funds for
these costs are expected to be provided by the operating cash flows of the
Company.
The Company is also in the process of monitoring the progress of significant
third parties in their efforts to become Year 2000 compliant. Those third
parties include, but are not limited to product suppliers, large customers,
financial institutions, third party benefit administrators, and utilities. The
Company has requested confirmation from all material third parties as to when
they will be Year 2000 compliant. The Company expects that this assessment will
be completed by June 1, 1999. If the Company's customers and suppliers do not
achieve Year 2000 compliance before the end of 1999, the Company may experience
a variety of problems, which may have a material adverse effect on the Company.
The Company has obtained responses from approximately 50% of material third
parties. To the extent such suppliers are not Year 2000 compliant by the end of
1999, such suppliers may fail to deliver ordered materials and products to the
Company and may fail to bill the Company properly and promptly. Consequently,
the Company may experience delays in manufacturing product to send to its
customers. The Company plans to address potential problems with its suppliers
by identifying and arranging for alternative sources of supplies. Due to the
nature of its product, the Company does not believe it has any exposure to
contingencies related to the Year 2000 Issue for the products it has sold.
The Company could be faced with severe consequences if Year 2000 issues are
not identified and resolved in a timely manner by the Company and significant
third parties. A worst-case scenario would result in the short-term inability
to manufacture adequate amounts of product to support incoming customer orders
resulting in lost revenues and customer loyalty. The amount would be dependent
on the length and nature of the disruption, which cannot be predicted or
estimated. In light of the possible consequences, the Company is devoting the
resources needed to address Year 2000 issues in a timely manner. Management
receives monthly (if not more often) updates as to project status. While
management expects a successful resolution of these issues, there can be no
guarantee that material third parties, on which the Company relies, will address
all Year 2000 issues on a timely basis or that their failure to timely and
successfully address all issues would not have an adverse effect on the Company.

Forward Looking Statements
When used in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q, the words "believes,"
"anticipates" and similar expressions are used to identify forward looking
statements. Such statements are subject to risks and uncertainties which could
cause actual results to differ materially from those projected. The Company
wishes to caution readers that the following important factors and others in
some cases have affected and in the future could affect the Company's actual
results and could cause the Company's results for 1999 to differ materially from
those expressed in any forward statements made by the Company: (i) economic
conditions in the remodeling and housing markets, (ii) availability of credit,
(iii) increases in interest rates, (iv) cost of lumber and other raw materials,
(v) inability to maintain state-of-the-art manufacturing facilities, (vi)
heightened competition, including intensification of price and service
competition, the entry of new competitors and the introduction of new products
by existing competitors, (vii) inability to capitalize on opportunities
presented by industry consolidation, (viii) loss or retirement of key executives
and (ix) inability to grow by acquisition of additional cabinetry manufactures
or to effectively consolidate operations of businesses acquired.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk.
The Company is subject to interest rate market risk in connection with its
long-term debt. These financial instruments are entered into for purposes other
than trading. As of April 3, 1999, the Company's debt instruments consisted of
certain obligations which bear a fixed interest rate and others which bear
interest at variable rates. The following table provides information about the
Company's debt instruments that are sensitive to changes in interest rates, and
presents the principal cash flows and related interest rates by expected
maturity dates (in thousands):
<TABLE>
<CAPTION>
Maturing in: Variable Rate (a) Fixed Rate (b)
<S> <C> <C>
1999 $14,626 $ --
2000 6,931 --
2001 8,125 --
2002 9,935 --
2003 12,051 --
2004 31,049 --
Thereafter -- 100,000
------- --------
Total $82,717 $100,000
======= ========
Fair value at April 3, 1999 $82,717 $103,000
</TABLE>
(a) $38.7 million at LIBOR plus 2.50%, $25.0 million at LIBOR plus 2.75% and
$19.0 million at Canadian BA rate plus 2.75% (7.57% weighted average at
April 3, 1999).
(b) All at 10.5%.
The Company's interest expense is most sensitive to changes in the general
level of U.S. and certain foreign (LIBOR and Canadian BA) interest rates. In
this regard, changes in such interest rates affect the interest paid on certain
of its debt. To manage the impact of fluctuations in interest rates, the Company
continually monitors and may select a variety of rate options on its variable-
rate debt. In addition, the Company has maintained a majority of its debt
borrowings as fixed-rate debt. Although it has not historically done so, the
Company in the future may consider entering into interest rate swaps or similar
transactions in order to fix certain interest costs on variable-rate debt.
PART II OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings.
The Company is a party to various legal actions arising in the ordinary
course of its business. The Company believes that the resolution of these legal
actions will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial
position or results of operations.

Item 2. Changes in Securities and Use of Proceeds.
The Company's registered securities consist of its 10 1/2% Senior
Subordinated Notes due June 15, 2007 ("Notes") governed pursuant to the terms of
the indenture dated July 24, 1997 among the Company, the Guarantors (as defined
therein) and The Chase Manhattan Bank, as trustee (the "Indenture"). On January
28, 1999, pursuant to the receipt of the requisite consent of the holders of the
Notes (see Item 4 below), the Company, Panther Transport, Inc. and The Chase
Manhattan Bank, as trustee, entered into the First Supplemental Indenture to
effect certain amendments to the Indenture.
The amendments modified the rights of the holders of the Notes by (i)
modifying certain provisions of the Indenture regarding the creation or
acquisition of certain foreign subsidiaries, which will not be required to
deliver a guarantee with respect to the Notes if such a guarantee is not
permitted under applicable law or would have a material adverse tax or
accounting effect on the Company; (ii) modifying certain provisions of the
Indenture regarding Agreement to Subordinate, Asset Sales and Sales of
Subsidiary Stock, Dividend and Other Payment Restrictions Affecting
Subsidiaries, Guarantors, Permitted Investments, Permitted Junior Securities,
Permitted Liens, Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness, Senior Debt, and
Unrestricted Subsidiaries so as to permit foreign subsidiaries to make such
investments and incur such obligations, subject to the limitations currently in
place for the Company and the Guarantors; and (iii) making minor modifications
to other Indenture provisions.
Pursuant to the acquisition of Kitchen Craft, on January 29, 1999, the
Company acquired certain foreign subsidiaries (Kitchen Craft of Canada, Ltd. and
Kitchen Craft Cabinetry Ltd.) which are not required to provide guarantees under
the Notes and are not subject to certain restrictions under the Indenture such
as subordination, asset sales and sales of subsidiary stock, payment
restrictions, permitted investments, permitted junior securities, permitted
liens, permitted refinancing indebtedness and senior debt.
Item 3. Defaults upon Senior Securities.
None.
Item 4. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.
In January, 1999, the Company solicited the consent of the holders of the
Notes pursuant to a Consent Solicitation Statement dated January 12, 1999, as
supplemented by Supplement No.1 thereto dated January 26, 1999, Supplement No. 2
thereto dated January 27, 1999, and Supplement No. 3 thereto dated January 27,
1999 to certain amendments to the Indenture. The purposes of the amendments were
(i) to give the Company the flexibility to create or acquire foreign
subsidiaries which would not be required to deliver a guarantee with respect to
the Notes, (ii) to modify certain provisions of the Indenture to permit foreign
subsidiaries that do not guarantee the Notes to otherwise operate under the
terms of the Indenture, subject to the
-18-
<PAGE>
limitations currently in place for the Company and the Guarantors, and (iii) to
make minor modifications to other Indenture provisions.
On January 28, 1999, the Company received unanimous consent of the holders
of the Notes voting in favor of the proposed amendments.
