TRIANGLE PACIFIC CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1 - ACQUISITION OF RESIDENTIAL FLOORING DIVISION OF ROBBINS, INC.
         AND SEARCY FLOORING, INC.  

     On March 28, 1997, Robbins Hardwood Flooring Inc., a newly formed wholly-
owned subsidiary of Triangle Pacific Corp., acquired from Robbins Inc. and 
it's affiliate Searcy Flooring, Inc., substantially all the assets and assumed 
certain liabilities (primarily IRB financing and trade payables) associated 
with their residential flooring operations.  The purchase price was $64.2 
million consisting of $55.7 in cash and the balance in assumed liabilities.  

     The acquisition has been accounted for using the purchase method of 
accounting, and accordingly, the purchase price has been allocated to the 
assets purchased and the liabilities assumed based upon the fair values at the 
date of acquisition.  The excess of the purchase price over the fair values of 
the net assets acquired was $36.9 million and has been recorded as goodwill, 
which is being amortized on a straight-line basis over 40 years.  Sales and 
earnings for the residential flooring operations acquired by Robbins Hardwood 
Flooring Inc., are included in the reported results for the period since the 
acquisition on March 28, 1997.  

     The net purchase price was allocated as follows:  
                                                      (in thousands)

          Net working capital                           $ 14,661
          Net property, plant and equipment               11,295
          Other assets                                     2,923
          Goodwill                                        36,941
          Other non-current liabilities                  (10,193)

NOTE 2 -INVENTORIES:  

     Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or market.  The last-in, 
first-out (LIFO) method is used for certain inventories and the first-in, 
first-out (FIFO) method is used for all other inventories.  Inventories valued 
by the LIFO method were $57,884,000 at October 3, 1997 and $35,311,000 at 
January 3, 1997.  Had all inventories been valued by the FIFO method, which 
approximates current cost, inventories would have been increased by $7,706,000 
at October 3, 1997 and $2,851,000 at January 3, 1997.  Raw materials 
inventories include purchased parts and supplies to be used in manufactured 
products.  Work-in-process and finished goods inventories include material, 
labor and overhead costs incurred in the manufacturing process.  The major 
components of inventories are as follows:  

                                             October 3,    January 3,

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


NET SALES

     Net sales for the nine months ended October 3, 1997 were $486.2 million 
compared to $384.9 million for the nine months ended September 27, 1996, 
representing a 26.3% increase.  Results for the first nine months of 1997 
included Hartco Flooring Company, which was acquired on June 28, 1996, and 
Robbins Hardwood Flooring Inc., which acquired the Robbins Residential 
Flooring Operations on March 28, 1997.  

     Net sales for the three months ended October 3, 1997 were $165.8 million 
compared to $142.9 million for the three months ended September 27, 1996. 
Flooring Division sales for the third quarter of 1997 were $120.6 million 
compared to $95.0 in the third quarter of 1996, an increase of 27.0%.  The 
Flooring Division unit sales for the third quarter of 1997 increased by 19.6% 
over the third quarter of 1996.  The third quarter of 1997 includes the 
results of Robbins Hardwood Flooring, Inc., which acquired the Robbins 
Residential Flooring operations on March 28, 1997.  

     Cabinet Division sales for the quarter ended October 3, 1997 were $45.2 
million compared to $48.0 million in the third quarter of 1996.  Unit sales 
declined 13.0%, while the average unit selling price increased 8.3%.  The 
higher unit selling price is confirmation that we continue to be more 
selective in accepting orders.  Operating margins increased over prior year 
levels.

GROSS PROFIT

     Gross profit for the nine months ended October 3, 1997 amounted to $118.5 
million or 24.4% of net sales, compared to $95.0 million, or 24.7% of net 
sales in the same period in 1996.  

     Gross profit for the three months ended October 3, 1997 was $40.5 million 
or 24.4% of net sales compared to $34.8 million or 24.3% of net sales in the 
same period in 1996.  Lumber costs in the third quarter of 1997 increased 
7.8%, bringing the total increase for the nine months of 1997 to 31.1%.  An 
unfavorable lumber purchase price variance and a larger LIFO provision during 
the third quarter of 1997 were major factors which impacted gross profit 
margins in the third quarter of 1997.

SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES

     Selling, general and administrative expenses amounted to $61.1 million, 
or 12.6% of net sales for the nine months ended October 3, 1997 compared to 
$50.0 million, or 13.0% of net sales for the nine months ended September 27, 
1996.  

     Selling, general and administrative expenses amounted to $20.0 million, 
or 12.1% of net sales, for the three months ended October 3, 1997 compared to 
$18.1 million, or 12.6% of net sales for the three months ended September 27, 
1996.  In absolute terms, this expense increased $1.9 million.  The higher 
spending was primarily for advertising, marketing and selling expenses which 
now include the Robbins operation.  Administrative expenses have remained 
relatively constant for the quarter and declined as a percentage of sales.

OPERATING INCOME

     Operating income for the nine months ended October 3, 1997 was $55.4 
million compared to $43.8 million for the nine months ended September 27, 
1996, an increase of 26.4%.  

     Operating income for the three months ended September 27, 1996 was $19.7 
million compared to $16.2 million for the three months ended September 27, 
1996, and increase of 21.6%.  

INTEREST EXPENSE

     Interest expense for the nine months ended October 3, 1997 was $17.0 
million compared to $14.6 million for the nine months ended September 27, 
1997.  

     Interest expense for the three months ended October 3, 1997 was $6.0 
million compared to $5.3 million for the three months ended September 27, 
1996.  

NET INCOME

     Net income for the nine months ended October 3, 1997 was $23.3 million or 
$1.52 per share, an increase of 28.9% over net income of $18.1 million or 
$1.21 per share for the nine months ended September 27, 1996.  

     Net income for the three months ended October 3, 1997, increased 24.4% to 
$8.4 million or $0.55 per share, compared to $6.7 million or $0.45 per share 
for the three months ended September 27, 1996.  

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

     For the nine months ended October 3, 1997, cash decreased by $14.0 
million.  Cash used for the acquisition of Robbins Hardwood Flooring Inc. was 
$55.6 million, cash used for additions to property, plant and equipment was 
$18.8 million, cash used for the acquisition of the Bruce Floor Care Products 
Trademark was $1.6 million, and long-term debt payments were $3.6 million.  
Bank borrowings of $45.9 million and cash provided by operating activities of 
$19.2 million were used to offset these expenditures.  

     The Company believes that borrowing availability under its Credit 
Facility and cash generated from operations will be adequate to fund working 
capital requirements, debt service payments and the planned capital 
expenditures for the foreseeable future.  

     Except for the statements of historical fact, this Form 10-Q, including, 
without limitation, this "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial 
Conditions and Results of Operations" contains "forward-looking statements" 
which involve risks and uncertainties which are detailed from time to time in
