1. Basis of Presentation
The financial information included herein is unaudited; however, such
information reflects all adjustments which are, in the opinion of management,
necessary for a fair statement of results for the interim periods.
Certain amounts for fiscal year 1996 have been reclassified to conform with
the fiscal year 1997 presentation. Such reclassifications had no effect on net
income as previously reported. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring
nature.
The results of operations for the three months ended July 28, 1996 are not
necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(unaudited)
The company has an unsecured loan agreement with two banks, which provides
for a $36,000,000 five-year term loan and a $33,500,000 Revolving Credit Line,
which also has a five-year term. The term loan requires monthly installments of
$500,000 and a final payment of $6,500,000 on March 1, 2001. The Revolving
Credit Line requires payment of an annual facility fee in advance.
The company's loan agreements require, among other things, that the company
maintain certain financial ratios. At July 28, 1996, the company was in
compliance with these required financial covenants.
At July 28, 1996, the company had three interest rate swap agreements in
order to reduce its exposure to floating interest rates on a portion of its
variable rate borrowings.
The following table summarizes certain data regarding the interest rate
swaps:
notional amount interest rate expiration date
$ 15,000,000 7.3% April 2000
$ 5,000,000 6.9% June 2002
$ 5,000,000 6.6% July 2002
Net amounts paid under these agreements increased interest expense for the
three months ended July 28, 1996 and July 30, 1995 by approximately $92,000 and
$49,000, respectively. Management believes the risk of incurring losses
resulting from the inability of the bank to fulfill its obligation under the
interest rate swap agreements to be remote and that any losses incurred would be
immaterial.

8. Foreign Exchange Forward Contracts
The company generally enters into foreign exchange forward contracts as a
hedge against its exposure to currency fluctuations on firm commitments to
purchase certain machinery and equipment and raw materials. Machinery and
equipment and raw material purchases hedged by foreign exchange forward
contracts are valued by using the exchange rate of the applicable foreign
exchange forward contract. At July 28, 1996, the company had approximately
$1,200,000 of foreign exchange forward contracts outstanding.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS OF OPERATIONS
The following analysis of the financial condition and results of operations
should be read in conjunction with the Financial Statements and Notes thereto
included elsewhere in this report.
Overview
For the three months ended July 28, 1996, net sales were $90.5 million, up 25%
from $72.4 million in the year-earlier period. Net income for the quarter
totaled $2.2 million, or $0.20 per share, compared with $1.5 million, or $0.14
per share, for the first quarter of fiscal 1996. The increase in sales primarily
reflected higher shipments of upholstery fabrics and, to a lesser degree,
increased sales of mattress ticking to both U.S.-based and international
manufacturers. The company experienced a generally favorable pattern in incoming
orders during the period. Sales to customers outside the United States rose 49%
for the quarter and are continuing to account for an increasing percentage of
the company's total sales. The pace of incoming orders has remained positive,
but demand over the remainder of fiscal 1997 will depend on the trend in
consumer purchases of home furnishings.
Analysis of Operations
The table below sets forth certain items in the Consolidated Statements of
Income as a percentage of net sales. Income taxes are expressed as a percentage
of income before income taxes.

Three Months Ended July 28, 1996 Compared With Three Months Ended July 30, 1995
The following table sets forth the company's sales divided into various
categories with the year-to-year percentage change in each case. In addition to
showing sales between the major product categories of Upholstery Fabrics and
Mattress Ticking, the table shows sales by the company's four business units:
Culp Textures, Rossville/Chromatex, Velvets/Prints and Culp Home Fashions (which
primarily produces mattress ticking).

</TABLE>
Sales of upholstery fabrics increased $17.4 million, or 31%, from a year ago.
Each of the business units in this category recorded higher sales. Sales of
mattress ticking rose $804,000, or 5%, from a year ago. International sales,
consisting primarily of upholstery fabrics, increased to $21.5 million, up 49%
from the year-earlier period. As a result of this gain, international sales
accounted for 24% of the company's sales compared with 20% a year ago.
Gross profit increased both in absolute dollars and as a percentage of net
sales. The higher profitability principally relates to products produced by the
Culp Textures and Velvets/Prints business units. The increased gross profit
reflects higher operating efficiencies as a result of the growth in sales as
well as the company's ongoing capital investment in equipment designed to

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS OF OPERATIONS
lower manufacturing costs and raise productivity.
Selling, general and administrative expenses increased as a percentage of net
sales. Although the company is continuing to emphasize cost-containment
programs, planned increases in expenses related to resources for designing new
fabrics and higher selling commissions related to international sales led to the
higher ratio of expenses to net sales. The accrual for incentive-based
compensation plans also increased significantly compared with a year ago.
Net interest expense of $1.2 million was down from $1.3 million in the
year-earlier period due to lower average borrowings outstanding. The effective
tax rate for the quarter was 37.5% compared with 35.3%. The company expects the
rate for fiscal 1997 as a whole will be essentially unchanged from the 36.5% in
fiscal 1996.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The company continues to maintain a sound financial position. Funded debt
(includes long-and short-term debt, less restricted investments) decreased to
$72.8 million at the close of the first quarter versus $76.8 million at the
close of fiscal 1996, and compared to $79.2 million at July 30, 1995. As a
percentage of total capital (funded debt plus total shareholders' equity), the
company's borrowings amounted to 47% as of July 28, 1996 compared with 49% at
the end of fiscal 1996 and 52% at July 30, 1995. The company's current ratio as
of July 28, 1996 was 2.2 compared with 2.2 as of April 28, 1996. Shareholders'
equity increased to $83.4 million as of July 28, 1996 compared with $81.4
million at the end of fiscal 1996.
Cash flow from operating activities totaled $13.2 million for the first quarter.
The funds from operations were used to fund capital expenditures of $4.5 million
and debt repayments of $4.0 million.
The company's borrowings are through financing arrangements with two banks which
provide for a $36.0 million term loan and a $33.5 million revolving credit line.

Forward-Looking Information
This discussion on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements that are
inherently subject to risks and uncertainties. Factors that could influence the
matters discussed in the forward-looking statements include the level of housing
starts and sales of existing homes, consumer confidence and changes in
disposable income. Decreases in these economic indicators could have a negative
effect on the company's business and prospects. Likewise, higher interest rates,
particularly the rates on home mortgages, and increases in consumer debt or the
general rate of inflation, could adversely affect the company.
