NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Note A. Basis of Financial Statement Presentation
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include the
accounts of O'Sullivan Corporation and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All
material intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in
consolidation. Certain information and footnote disclosure normally included
in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles have not been included in these statements. These
statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements notes
and other disclosures thereto included in the Corporation's 1997 Annual
Report to Stockholders and Form 10-K.
Investments in affiliates in which the Corporation has a 20% to 50% interest
are carried at cost adjusted for the Corporation's proportionate share of
the affiliate's undistributed earnings or loss.
In the opinion of management of the Corporation, the unaudited consolidated
financial statements contain all material adjustments, consisting only of
normal recurring accruals and adjustments, necessary to fairly present the
Corporation's financial position as of March 31, 1998 and December 31, 1997
and the results of its operations and cash flows for the three months ended
March 31, 1998 and 1997. The results of operations for the three months
ended March 31, 1998 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results
for the full year.
Certain amounts for 1997 have been reclassified to reflect comparability
with account classifications for 1998.

INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANT'S REPORT
To the Board of Directors
O'Sullivan Corporation
Winchester, Virginia
We have reviewed the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet of
O'Sullivan Corporation and Subsidiaries as of March 31, 1998, and the
related condensed consolidated statements of income and cash flows for the
three month periods ended March 31, 1998 and 1997. These financial
statements are the responsibility of the Corporation's management.
We conducted our review in accordance with Statements on Standards for
Accounting and Review Services issued by the American Institute of Certified
Public Accountants. A review of interim financial information consists
principally of applying analytical procedures to financial data and making
inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It
is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with
generally accepted auditing standards, the objective of which is the
expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole.
Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.
Based on our review, we are not aware of any material modifications that
should be made to the accompanying condensed consolidated financial
statements referred to above for them to be in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles.
We have previously audited, in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards, the balance sheet of O'Sullivan Corporation and Subsidiaries as
of December 31, 1997, and the related statements of income and cash flows
for the year then ended (not presented herein); and in our report dated
January 26, 1998, we expressed an unqualified opinion on those financial
statements. In our opinion, the information set forth in the accompanying
condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 1997 is fairly stated,
in all material respects, in relation to the balance sheet from which it has
been derived.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Results of Operations (First Quarter, 1998 versus First Quarter, 1997)
- ----------------------------------------------------------------------
Continuing Operations (Plastics Products Segment) Operating Results
O'Sullivan Corporation's consolidated net sales were $41.9 million for the
first quarter of 1998 and $40.5 million for the first quarter of 1997. The
sales increase over the first quarter of 1997 was $1.5 million or 3.7%. Both
the automotive and industrial components of the business experienced sales
increases over the first quarter of 1997. The increase in automotive sales
was slightly greater than the increase in industrial sales.
The gross margin was 16.4% for the first quarter of 1998 and 15.1% for the
first quarter of 1997. The improvement in the gross margin was due to the
increased sales volume, changes in product mix, manufacturing efficiency
improvements and marginally lower raw material costs.
Selling and warehousing expenses were 3.4% of net sales for the first quarter
of 1998 and 3.1% for the first quarter of 1997. The increased costs for 1998
resulted from increased compensation, advertising and sales consulting fees.
General and administrative expenses were 3.7% of net sales for the first
quarter of 1998 and 3.8% for the first quarter of 1997.
Income tax expense was $1.7 million for the first quarter of 1998 and $1.6
million for the first quarter of 1997. The increase in the provision for
income taxes resulted from the higher level of pre-tax income for the first
quarter of 1998, although the effective tax rate was lower for the first
quarter of 1998. The Corporation's effective tax rate for the first quarter
of 1998 was 36.8% compared to 38.4% for the first quarter of 1997. The
reduction in the effective rate was due to a reduced charge for state income
taxes and a reduction in the effective federal rate.
Net other income increased by approximately $43 thousand compared to the
first quarter of 1997. The net increase resulted from improved earnings of
a non-consolidated affiliate when compared to the first quarter of 1997,
which exceeded the decreased earnings from interest income for the quarter.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Operating activities provided net cash of $2.7 million for the first quarter
of 1998 compared to net cash provided by operating activities of $4.2 million
for the first quarter of 1997. Cash provided by operating activities in the
first quarter of 1998 plus the proceeds provided from the sale of assets were
used to make property, plant and equipment purchases during the quarter and
to pay dividends. The improved net cash flow for the quarter when compared
to 1997 primarily resulted from reduced outlays for purchase of the
Corporation's stock and advances to fund discontinued operations.
Capital outlay was $2.0 million for the first quarter of 1998 and $1.4
million for the first quarter of 1997. Current capital expenditures are
primarily to provide additional capacity and modernize present equipment to
produce products for which orders currently exist. Total capital outlay for
1998 is expected to be between $12.5 and $14.5 million.
The Corporation has renewed through June 30, 2000, its line of credit with
First Union National Bank of Virginia to provide capital to finance capital
outlay and/or acquisitions. The amount of the line of credit has been
increased to $50,000,000.
Management believes that net cash flow from operating activities, along with
available financing capabilities will be adequate to meet the Corporation's
funding requirements for 1998.
PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
The Corporation and its Subsidiaries are involved in legal proceedings
incidental to their normal business activities. While the outcome of these
proceedings cannot be completely predicted, the Corporation does not believe
the ultimate resolution of any existing matters will have a material adverse
effect on its financial position or results of operations.
Item 4. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders
The Annual Meeting of Stockholders of O'Sullivan Corporation was held on
April 29, 1998, for the purpose of electing a board of directors and
approving the appointment of independent auditors. Proxies for the meeting
were solicited pursuant to Section 14(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of
1934 and there was no solicitation in opposition to management's
solicitation. All of management's nominees for directors as listed in the
proxy statement were elected.
