Notes to Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements
NOTE 1 - CONDENSED FOOTNOTES
As contemplated by the Securities and Exchange Commission instructions
to Form 10-Q, the following footnotes have been condensed and, therefore, do
not contain all disclosures required in connection with annual financial
statements. Reference should be made to the notes to the Company's year-end
financial statements contained in its Annual Report to Shareholders for the
fiscal year ended January 2, 1994, as filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission.
NOTE 2 - TRANSLATION OF FOREIGN CURRENCIES AND HEDGING TRANSACTIONS
The Company employs a variety of off-balance sheet financial
instruments to reduce its exposure to adverse fluctuations in interest and
foreign currency exchange rates, including interest rate and currency swap
agreements and foreign currency forward exchange contracts. At October 2,
1994, the Company had approximately $43 million (notional amount) of foreign
currency hedge contracts outstanding, consisting principally of forward
exchange contracts. These contracts serve to hedge firmly committed Dutch
guilder, German mark, Japanese yen, French franc, British pound sterling and
other foreign currency revenues.
At October 2, 1994, interest rate and currency swap agreements related
to certain foreign currency denominated promissory notes effectively converted
approximately $29 million of variable debt to fixed rate debt. At October 2,
1994, the weighted average fixed rate on the Dutch guilder and Japanese yen
borrowings was 8.83%. The interest rate and currency swaps have maturity dates
ranging from six to nine months.
The Company continually monitors its position with, and the credit
quality of, the financial institutions which are counter-parties to its
off-balance sheet financial instruments and does not anticipate nonperformance
by the counter-parties.

NOTE 4 - BUSINESS ACQUISITIONS
On March 29, 1994, the Company acquired 100% of the outstanding shares
of Prince Street Technologies, Ltd. ("PST"), a broadloom carpet producer
located in Atlanta, Georgia. The Company issued 674,953 shares of Class A
Common Stock in exchange for 100% of the outstanding shares of PST. The
transaction has been accounted for as a purchase, and the operations of PST are
included in the consolidated results of the Company from the date of the
acquisition.
The following table summarizes the unaudited pro forma consolidated
results of operations of the Company as though the PST acquisition had occurred
at the beginning of each of the fiscal periods presented, and does not purport
to be indicative of what would have occurred had the acquisition actually been
consummated as of those dates or of results that may occur in the future. The
pro forma amounts give effect to appropriate adjustments for the fair value of
the net assets acquired, amortization of the excess of the cost over net assets
acquired, interest expense, intercompany transactions, and the issuance of
common stock.

NOTE 5 - EXCESS COST OVER NET ASSETS ACQUIRED
The Company's operational policy for the assessment and measurement of
any impairment in the value of excess cost over net assets acquired which is
other than temporary is to evaluate the recoverability and remaining life of
its goodwill and determine whether the goodwill should be completely or
partially written-off or the amortization period accelerated. The Company will
recognize an impairment of goodwill if undiscounted estimated future operating
cash flows of the acquired business are determined to be less than the carrying
amount of goodwill. If the Company determines that goodwill has been impaired,
the measurement of the impairment will be equal to the excess of the carrying
amount of the goodwill over the amount of the undiscounted estimated operating
cash flows. If an impairment of goodwill were to occur, the Company would
reflect the impairment through a reduction in the carrying value of goodwill.
NOTE 6 - EARNINGS PER SHARE AND DIVIDENDS
Earnings per share are computed by dividing net income applicable to
common shareholders by the combined weighted average number of shares of Class
A and Class B common stock outstanding during each year. The computation does
not include a negligible dilutive effect of stock options. Neither the
Convertible Debentures issued in September 1988 nor the Preferred Stock issued
in June 1993 were determined to be common stock equivalents. In computing
primary earnings per share, the preferred stock dividend reduces income
applicable to common shareholders. For the periods ended October 2, 1994 and
October 3, 1993, fully diluted earnings per common share were antidilutive.
For the purposes of computing earnings per share and dividends paid per share,
the Company is treating as treasury stock (and therefore not outstanding) the
shares that are owned by a wholly-owned subsidiary (3,600,000 Class A shares,
recorded at cost).

The financial information included in this report has been prepared by
the Company, without audit, and should not be relied upon to the same extent as
audited financial statements. In the opinion of management, the financial
information included in this report contains all adjustments (all of which are
normal and recurring) necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the
interim periods. Nevertheless, the results shown for interim periods are not
necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the year.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS. For the three month and nine month periods
ended October 2, 1994, the Company's net sales increased $17.4 million (10.4%)
and $74.6 million (16.5%), respectively, compared with the same periods in
1993. The increase was primarily attributable to (i) sales generated by
Bentley Mills, Inc., which was acquired during June 1993, (ii) sales generated
by Prince Street Technologies, Ltd., which was acquired during March 1994,
(iii) increased sales volume in the Company's carpet operations in Europe and
Southeast Asia, and (iv) continued improvement in unit volume in the Company's
interior fabric and chemical operations. These increases were offset somewhat
by a decrease in the Company's modular carpet sales volume in the United
Stated and in Japan, which has continued to experience a recessionary economic
climate.
Cost of sales increased as a percentage of sales for the three and
nine month periods ended October 2, 1994, compared with the same periods in
1993. The increase was due primarily to (i) increased manufacturing costs in
the Company's interior fabrics division, and (ii) the acquisitions of Bentley
Mills and Prince Street Technologies, which, historically, had higher cost of
sales than the Company.
Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of sales
decreased to 22.8% and 23.4%, respectively, for the three month and nine month
periods ended October 2, 1994, compared to 24.9% and 24.5% for the same periods
in 1993, primarily as a result of (i) the acquisition of Bentley Mills, which
had lower selling, general and administrative costs than the Company, and (ii)
the continuation of cost controls measures initiated in prior years, which
reduced discretionary marketing cost and fixed overhead expenditures.
For the three month and nine month periods ended October 2, 1994, the
Company's other expense remained flat and increased $.7 million, respectively,
compared to the same periods in 1993, primarily due to an increase in bank debt
coupled with the increase in U.S. interest rates.
Due, by and large, to the aforementioned factors, coupled with the
dividends paid on the Series A Preferred Shares, the Company's net income
increased 10.5% to $3.8 million and 12.7% to $9.5 million, respectively, for
the three months and nine months ended October 2, 1994, compared to the same
periods in 1993.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES. The primary uses of cash during the
period have been (i) $9.2 for additions to property and equipment in the
Company's manufacturing facilities, (ii) $.6 associated with the acquisition
of Prince Street Technologies, and (iii) $4.5 million for dividends paid.
These uses were funded, in
9
<PAGE> 10
part, by $9.5 million from long-term financing, $6.7 million from operations
and $1.5 million from a reduction in escrowed and restricted funds requirements.
The Company, as of October 2, 1994, recognized a $16.2 million
decrease in foreign currency translation adjustment compared to that of January
2, 1994. This improvement in translation adjustment was largely due to a
significant quarter end strengthening of the British pound sterling and the
Dutch guilder compared to the U.S. dollar. The adjustment to shareholders'
equity was converted by the guidelines of the Financial Accounting Standards
Board (FASB) 52.
The Company employs a variety of off-balance sheet financial
instruments to reduce its exposure to adverse fluctuations in interest and
foreign currency exchange rates, including interest rate and currency swap
agreements and foreign currency forward exchange contracts. At October 2,
1994, the Company had approximately $43 million (notional amount) of foreign
currency hedge contracts outstanding, consisting principally of forward
exchange contracts. The contracts serve to hedge firmly committed Dutch
guilder, German mark, Japanese yen, French franc, British pound sterling and
other foreign currency revenues.
At October 2, 1994, interest rate and currency swap agreements related
to certain foreign currency denominated promissory notes effectively converted
approximately $29 million of variable rate debt to fixed rate debt. At October
2, 1994 the weighted average fixed rate on the Dutch guilder and Japanese yen
borrowings was 8.83%. The interest rate and currency swaps have maturity dates
ranging from six to nine months.
The Company continually monitors its position with, and the credit
quality of, the financial institutions which are counter-parties to its
off-balance sheet financial instruments and does not anticipate nonperformance
by the counter-parties.
In June 1994, the Company amended its existing revolving credit and
term loan facilities. The amendment increased the revolving credit facilities
by $20.0 million, reduced the interest calculation from LIBOR plus 1.5% to
LIBOR plus 1.0%, reduced the commitment fees payable by the Company, and
amended certain financial covenants.
Management believes that the cash provided by operations and available
under long-term loan commitments will provide adequate funds for current
commitments and other requirements in the foreseeable future.

W I T N E S S E T H:
WHEREAS, the Borrower, the Bank and Interface are parties to that
certain Revolving Credit Loan Agreement dated as of August 5, 1991, as amended
by that certain First Amendment to Revolving Credit Agreement dated as of June
30, 1992, by that certain Second Amendment to Revolving Credit Agreement dated
as of August 5, 1993 and as further amended by that certain Third Amendment to
Revolving Credit Agreement dated as of June 15, 1994 pursuant to which the Bank
agreed to make to the Borrower certain revolving credit loans in an aggregate
principal amount at any one time outstanding not to exceed $4,250,000.00 (as
amended, the "Loan Agreement"; all terms used herein without definition shall
have the meanings set forth in the Loan Agreement); and
WHEREAS, the Borrower has requested and the Bank has agreed to extend
the Commitment for an additional year and to make certain other conforming
changes to the Loan Agreement;
NOW, THEREFORE, for and in consideration of the sum of Ten Dollars
($10.00) in hand paid by Borrower and Interface and the Bank and for further
good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are
hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto, intending to be legally bound, agree
as follows:
1. The Loan Agreement is hereby amended by deleting Section 2.01 in
its entirety and substituting the following in lieu thereof:
`"SECTION 2.01. Commitment and Revolving Credit Note. Subject to and
upon the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, the Bank
establishes until August 5, 1995 a revolving credit in favor of the
Borrower in aggregate principal at any one time outstanding not to exceed

Borrower may neither borrow nor reborrow should there exist a Default
or an Event of Default (which has not been waived in accordance with the
terms of this Agreement). All Borrowings under the Commitment shall be
evidenced by a single Revolving Credit Note payable to the Bank in the form
of Exhibit A attached hereto with appropriate insertions. The Revolving
Credit Note shall be dated the date hereof, shall be payable to the order

Atlanta, Georgia together with duly executed revolving credit note in the form
of Exhibit "A" attached hereto. Upon such receipt all references to the Loan
Agreement shall mean the Loan Agreement as amended by this Fourth Amendment,
all references to the "Revolving Credit Note" or "Note" shall mean the
revolving credit note delivered pursuant hereto, and all references to the
"Termination Date" shall mean the Termination Date as defined in this Fourth
Amendment. Except as expressly provided in this Fourth Amendment, the
execution and delivery of this Fourth Amendment does not and will not amend,
modify or supplement any provision of, or constitute a consent to or waiver of
the noncompliance with the provisions of the Loan Agreement and, except as
specifically provided in this Fourth Amendment, the Loan Agreement shall remain
in force and effect.
4. This Fourth Amendment shall be binding upon and shall inure to
the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted
assigns.
5. This Fourth Amendment shall be governed by and construed in
accordance with the laws of the State of Georgia without regard to the conflict
of laws principles thereof.

REVOLVING CREDIT NOTE
U.S. $4,250,000.00 August 5, 1994
Atlanta, Georgia
FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the undersigned INTERFACE FLOORING SYSTEMS, INC., a Georgia
corporation (herein called the "Company"), hereby promises to pay to the order
of TRUST COMPANY BANK, a Georgia banking corporation (herein, together with any
subsequent holder hereof, called the "Bank"), the lesser of (i) the principal
sum of FOUR MILLION TWO HUNDRED FIFTY THOUSAND AND NO/100 DOLLARS
($4,250,000.00) or (ii) outstanding principal amount of the Borrowings made by
the Company pursuant to the terms of the Loan Agreement referred to below on
the earlier of (x) August 5, 1995 and (y) the date on which all amounts
outstanding under this Revolving Credit Note have become due and payable
pursuant to the provisions of Article VI of the Loan Agreement. The Company
likewise promises to pay interest on the outstanding principal amount of each
such Borrowing, at such interest rates, payable at such times, and computed in
such manner, as are specified in the Loan Agreement in strict accordance with
the terms thereof.
The Bank shall record all Borrowings made pursuant to the Loan
Agreement and all payments of principal of such Borrowings and, prior to any
transfer hereof, shall endorse such Borrowings and payments on the schedule
annexed hereto and made a part hereof, or on any continuation thereof which
shall be attached hereto and made a part hereof, which endorsement shall
constitute prima facie evidence of the accuracy of the information so endorsed;
provided, however, that delay or failure of the Bank to make any such
endorsement or recordation shall not affect the obligations of the Company
hereunder or under the Loan Agreement with respect to the Borrowings evidenced
hereby.
Any principal or interest (to the extent permitted by law) due under
this Revolving Credit Note that is not paid on the due date therefor, whether
