             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 December 31, 1995, as filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission.

     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 full year.


NOTE 2 - INVENTORIES


     Inventories are summarized as follows:

Flooring Co., Inc., based in Oregon, Reiser Associates, Inc., based in Texas,
Earl W. Bentley Operating Co., Inc., based in Oklahoma, Quaker City
International, Inc., based in Pennsylvania, and Superior Holding Inc., based in
Texas -- for approximately $24,294,000, in the aggregate (comprised of
$15,668,000 in cash and $8,626,000 in Interface common stock).  The acquisitions
were accounted for as purchases and, accordingly, the results of operations for
the acquired companies are included in the Company's consolidated financial
statements from the date of the acquisitions. The

excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net liabilities was
approximately $18,600,000 and is being amortized over 30 years.

     In February 1996, the  Company acquired the outstanding common stock of
Renovisions, Inc., a Nationwide installation services firm (based in Georgia)
that has pioneered a new method of carpet replacement, for approximately
$5,000,000 in cash.  The acquisition was accounted for as a purchase and,
accordingly, the results of operations for Renovisions are included in the
Company's consolidated financial statements from the date of acquisition.  The
excess of the purchase price over the fair value of net assets was
approximately $3,200,000, and is being amortized over 30 years.

     In February 1996, the  Company acquired the outstanding common stock of
C-Tec, Inc., a Michigan based producer of raised/access flooring systems, for
approximately $8,750,000 (comprised of $4,500,000 in cash and $4,250,000 in 6%
subordinated convertible notes).  The acquisition was accounted for as a
purchase and, accordingly, the results of operations for C-Tec are included in
the Company's consolidated financial statements from the date of acquisition.
The excess of the purchase price over the fair value of net liabilities was
approximately $3,200,000, and is being amortized over 30 years.


NOTE 4 - 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 the particular reporting period.
The earnings computation does not give effect to the negligible dilutive impact
of outstanding stock options.  The Series A Cumulative Convertible Preferred
Stock issued in June 1993 is not considered to be common stock equivalents.  In
computing primary earnings per share, the preferred stock dividend of 7% per
annum reduces income applicable to common shareholders.  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).


NOTE 5 - SUPPLEMENTAL GUARANTOR FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

     The Guarantor Subsidiaries, which consist of the Company's principal
domestic subsidiaries, are guarantors of the Company's 9.5% senior subordinated
notes due 2005.  The Supplemental Guarantor Financial Statements are presented
herein pursuant to requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
        RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

        RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.  For the three month and six month periods ended
June 30, 1996, the Company's net sales increased $34.7 million (17.1%) and $48.4
(12.3%), respectively, compared with the same periods in 1995.  The increase was
primarily attributable to (i) increased sales volume associated with the
acquisitions of the companies in the Company's newly formed U.S. distribution
network, Re:Source Americas, (ii) increased sales volume in the Company's
floorcoverings operations in the United States, Continental Europe and
Australia;  (iii) increased sales volume in the Company's interior fabrics
operations associated with the acquisitions of Toltec Fabrics, Inc. in June
1995, and the Intek Division of Springs Industries in December 1995, and (iv)
increased sales volume in the Company's specialty resources division associated
with the acquisition of C-Tec Inc. in February 1996. These increases were offset
somewhat by a decrease in the Company's floorcovering sales volume in the
broadloom carpet businesses, coupled with the weakening of the currencies of
certain key markets (particularly the British pound sterling, Dutch guilder and
Japanese yen) against the U.S. dollar, the Company's reporting currency.

        Cost of sales decreased for the three and six month periods ended June
30, 1996 when compared with the same periods in 1995.  The Company recognized a
decrease in manufacturing costs in its operations due to continued
implementation of its make-to-order production strategy and "war-on-waste"
initiative, which created manufacturing efficiencies as well as a shift to
higher margin products.  In addition to the improved manufacturing efficiencies
the Company achieved improved pricing in its floorcovering operations.  These
benefits were somewhat offset by the acquisitions of Toltec, Intek, C-Tec, and
the companies comprising the Company's new distribution network, which
historically had higher cost of sales than the Company.

        Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of sales
increased slightly to 23.4% and 23.7%, respectively, for the three month and
six month periods ended June 30, 1996, compared to 23.3% and 23.4% for the same
periods in 1995.  The increase for the three month period was attributable to
(i) administrative expenses associated with building an infrastructure to manage
Re:Source Americas, the Company's new commercial floorcovering distribution
channel in the United States, (ii) increased marketing and sampling expenses in
the floorcovering operations associated with the introduction of new products as
the Company moves to implement a mass customization strategy in its European and
U.S. broadloom operations, (iii) the acquisitions of Toltec Fabrics and Intek
which, historically, had higher SG&A expense ratios than the Company.

        For the three month and six month periods ended June 30, 1996, the
Company's other expense increased $1.7 million and $2.4 million, respectively,
compared to the same periods in 1995, primarily due to an increase in bank debt
incurred as a result of the Company's acquisitions, as well as increased
interest rates associated with the

                                     11


<PAGE>   12

issuance of the Company's senior subordinated notes in November 1995 and
subsequent redemption of the Company's convertible subordinated debentures.

     As a result of the aforementioned factors, the Company's net income (after
adjustment for preferred dividends) increased 20.7% to $5.6 million and 7.9% to
$8.9 million, respectively, for the three month and six month periods ended
June 30, 1996, compared to the same periods in 1995.

     LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES.  The primary uses of cash during the
period have been (i) $ 30.9 million associated with acquisitions, (ii) $19.4
million for additions to property and equipment in the Company's manufacturing
facilities, and (iii) $5.8 million related to various deposits and long-term
note receivables.  These uses were funded by $34.5 million from long-term
financing and $23.4 million from operating activities.

     The Company, as of June 30, 1996, recognized an $8.4 million decrease in
foreign currency translation adjustment compared to that of December 31, 1995.
The decrease was associated primarily with the Company's investments in
subsidiaries located in the United Kingdom and Continental Europe. The
translation adjustment to shareholders' equity was converted by the guidelines
of the Financial Accounting Standards Board's Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 52.

     The Company employs a variety of off-balance sheet financial instruments,
including foreign currency swap agreements and foreign currency exchange
contracts, to reduce its exposure to adverse fluctuations in interest and
foreign currency exchange rates.  At June 30, 1996, the Company had
approximately $64.3 million (notional amount) of foreign currency hedge
contracts outstanding, consisting principally of currency swap contracts to
hedge firmly committed Dutch guilder and Japanese yen currency revenues. At
June 30, 1996, the Company utilized interest rate swap agreements to
effectively convert approximately $73 million of variable rate debt to fixed
rate debt.  At June 30, 1996, the weighted average rate on borrowings was 6.9%.
The interest rate swap agreements have maturity dates ranging from nine to
twenty-four months.

     The Company continually monitors its position with, and the credit quality
of, the financial institutions which are counterparties to its off-balance
sheet financial instruments and does not currently anticipate nonperformance by
the counterparties.

     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.
