Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
------------------------------------------
Thirteen Weeks Ended January 30, 1999
-------------------------------------
Note 1. - Interim Results
The financial statements contained herein are unaudited. In the
opinion of management, these financial statements reflect all
adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, which are
necessary for fair presentation of the results of the interim periods
presented. Reference is made to the footnotes to the consolidated
financial statements contained in the Company's Annual Report on Form
10-K for the year ended October 31, 1998, filed with the Securities and
Exchange Commission.
Note 2. - Business Acquisition
The Company's results for the first quarter of 1999 include Howe
Furniture Corporation and its subsidiaries ("Howe") for the thirteen
week period. Howe was acquired during March 1998, and therefore Howe's
results of operation are not included in the reported results for the
first quarter of 1998.
Note 3. - Comprehensive Income
In June 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) adopted
Statements of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 130, "Reporting
Comprehensive Income", which is the change in equity of a business
enterprise during a period from transactions and other events and
circumstances from non-owner sources; it includes all changes in equity
during the period except those resulting from investments by owners and
distribution to owners. Comprehensive income is the total of all
components of comprehensive income and other comprehensive income,
including net income. Other comprehensive income refers to revenues,
expenses, gains and losses that under GAAP are excluded from net income.
Effective November 1, 1998, the Company adopted SFAS No. 130. For the
Company, the only element of other comprehensive income is cumulative
translation adjustments, arising from the translation of certain balance
sheet accounts from local currency to functional currency. For quarters
ended January 30, 1999, and January 31, 1998, comprehensive income was
$1.6 million and $1.5 million, respectively.
Item 2. - Management's Discussion and Analysis of Results of Operations
-------------------------------------------------------------
and Financial Condition
- -----------------------
The information contained in this Item 2 includes statements
regarding matters which are not historical facts (including statements
as to the Company's plans, beliefs or expectations) that are forward-
looking statements within the meaning of the federal securities laws.
Because such forward-looking statements involve certain risks and
uncertainties, the Company's actual results and the timing of certain
events could differ materially from those discussed herein.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
General
The following table sets forth, for the periods presented, certain
information relating to the operations of the Company, expressed as a
percentage of net sales:
<TABLE>
<CAPTION>

----------- -----------
<S> <C> <C>
Net sales 100.0% 100.0%
Cost of sales 71.4 71.0
Gross margin 28.6 29.0
Selling, general and administrative expenses 19.1 19.1
Operating profit 9.5 9.9
Interest (expense) income, net (0.8) 0.3
Minority interest in consolidated subsidiary 0.0 0.1
Earnings before income taxes 8.7 10.3
Income tax expense 3.3 3.9
Net earnings 5.4 6.4
</TABLE>
Thirteen weeks ended January 30, 1999, compared to the thirteen weeks
ended January 31, 1998.
Net earnings were $1.9 million in the first quarter of fiscal 1999,
and $1.8 million in 1998. Net earnings per share were $.21 in 1999, and
$.19 in 1998, an increase of 10.5%.
Net sales for the first quarter of 1999 were $34.6 million, an
increase of 23.1% over the 1998 first quarter net sales of $28.1
million. The increase was primarily due to additional sales related
to the Howe acquisition which were partially offset by lower casegoods
sales in the lodging market. This was following the Company's previous
decision to exit the hotel casegoods market.
Cost of sales was $24.7 million for the 1999 first quarter, an
increase of 24.1% from $19.9 million in the first quarter of 1998. The
overall increase is a result of the increased sales volume. Gross
margin increased to $9.9 million for the first quarter of 1999, a 22.2%
increase from $8.1 million in the same quarter of 1998. Gross margin as
a percentage of net sales decreased to 28.6% in 1999 from 29.0% in 1998.
The lower gross margin percentage during the first quarter of 1999 was
due primarily to operating inefficiencies at the City of Industry,
California manufacturing facility caused by lower volume.
Selling, general and administrative expenses were $6.6 million in the
first quarter of 1999, compared to $5.3 million in the first quarter of
1998, a 24.5% increase. The increase is primarily attributable to the
Howe acquisition. Selling, general and administrative expenses as a
percentage of net sales were 19.1% for the first quarter of 1999 and
1998.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Company's working capital at January 30, 1999, was $35.7 million
and its ratio of current assets to current liabilities was 2.8 to 1.0,
compared with $35.8 million and 2.8 to 1.0 at October 31, 1998.
The Company has a $20.0 million unsecured revolving line of credit
agreement with a commercial bank. The revolving line of credit bears
interest at a floating rate based on LIBOR, the Federal Funds Rate, or
the Prime Rate, at the Company's election, plus a spread. The spread
is determined by a leverage ratio, as defined in the agreement. The
interest rate on the revolving
<PAGE>
<PAGE>
credit facility is currently Prime minus 2%. The outstanding amounts
under the agreement were $17.5 million and $16.9 million as of January 30,
1999 and October 31, 1998, respectively.
The Company expects that it will meet its ongoing working capital and
capital requirements from available cash reserves and available
borrowings under its revolving credit facility. The Company's operating
cash flows constitute its primary source of liquidity.
