FLEXSTEEL INDUSTRIES, INC.
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF THE CONDENSED STATEMENT
OF EARNINGS


Financial Condition - The Company's cash, cash equivalents, and temporary
investments increased by $561,000. Accounts receivable increased by $4,400,000
while inventories decreased by $431,000. Capital expenditures were $1,560,000
for plant improvements, manufacturing, and delivery equipment. Working capital
increased $1,068,000 for the nine month period. In the next three months
approximately $1,400,000 will be spent for manufacturing facility improvements,
manufacturing, and delivery equipment. The Company has repurchased 100,040
shares of its common stock for $977,795 as authorized by the Board of Directors
and announced through a release dated February 1, 1996.

Economic Conditions - The Company anticipates that demand for its seating
products will remain steady for the remainder of calendar year 1996, and at
higher levels than 1995. With the introduction of the Flexsteel "Comfort
Seating" gallery program for independent retail dealers of home furnishings, new
model year product introductions for Recreational Vehicle customers, and
modernized Commercial Seating manufacturing facilities, the Company is well
positioned and prepared to respond to opportunities in all business segments.
Higher volume levels and the above strategies should allow the Company to
maintain profit margins, improve production efficiencies, and absorb fixed costs
resulting in improved profitability during the remainder of 1996.

Results of Operations for the Quarter - Sales decreased by approximately
$3,569,000 compared to the prior year quarter. Sales volume decreased by
$3,527,000 in Home Furnishings and $1,168,000 in Recreational Vehicle products,
while Commercial Seating increased by $1,126,000. Cost of goods sold decreased
by $3,181,000, due to the volume decrease. Selling, general, and administrative
expenses increased by $183,000. Additional costs of approximately $400,000
associated with Flexsteel Gallery program enhancements and increased bad debt
provision, as well as general under absorption of fixed costs, offset volume
related decreases in selling, general, and administrative costs. The
aforementioned changes resulted in a decrease in net income after taxes of
$335,000, or $.05 per share, compared to the quarter ended March 31, 1995.

Results of Operations for the Last Nine Months - Sales decreased by
approximately $9,328,000, compared to the nine month period ended March 31,
1995. Sales decreased by $5,458,000 in Recreational Vehicle products and
$5,112,000 in Home Furnishings, while Commercial Seating increased by
$1,242,000. Cost of goods sold decreased by $5,544,000. volume related decreases
were offset by approximately $470,000, or $.04 per share after tax, associated
with closing the Sweetwater, TN facility and approximately $1,270,000 related to
lower margins and under absorbed fixed costs. Selling, general, and
administrative expenses decreased by $129,000. Additional costs of approximately
$650,000 associated with enhancements to our Flexsteel Gallery program and an
increase in bad debt provision, as well as the fixed nature of many of these
costs, offset any volume related decreases in selling, general, and
administrative costs. The aforementioned changes resulted in a decrease in net
income after taxes of $2,284,000, or $.32 per share, compared to the nine month
period ended March 31, 1995.
