1. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have
been prepared in accordance with instructions to Form 10-Q and do not include
all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting
principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all
adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a
fair presentation have been included. These statements should be read in
conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the
Company's 1998 Annual Report filed on Form 10-K, as filed with the Securities
and Exchange Commission, which includes consolidated financial statements for
the fiscal year ended December 31, 1998.

The Company's basic earnings per share are computed by dividing net earnings by
the weighted-average common shares outstanding, and diluted earnings per share
are computed by dividing net earnings by the weighted-average common and
dilutive potential common shares outstanding. Dilutive common stock options are
included in the diluted earnings per share calculation using the treasury stock
method.


2. Acquisitions

On January 29, 1999, the Company acquired certain assets of Image Industries,
Inc. ("Image") for approximately $193,000, including acquisition costs and the
assumption of $30,000 of tax exempt debt. The Image acquisition has been
accounted for under the purchase method of accounting and, accordingly, the
purchase price was allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed
based on the estimated fair values at the date of acquisition. The estimated
fair values were $201,689 for assets acquired and $42,903 for the liabilities
assumed.

The operating results of Image are included in the Company's 1999 consolidated
statement of earnings from the date of acquisition. The following unaudited pro
forma information presents a summary of consolidated results of operations of
the Company and Image as if the acquisition had occurred at the beginning of
1998.

      Basic earnings per share              $         1.18              0.91
      Diluted earnings per share            $         1.17              0.90

On March 9, 1999, the Company acquired all the outstanding capital stock of
Durkan Patterned Carpets, Inc. ("Durkan") for approximately 3,150 shares of the
Company's common stock valued at $116,500 based on the closing stock price the
day the letter of intent was executed. The Durkan acquisition has been accounted
for using the pooling-of-interests method of accounting and, accordingly, the
Company's historical consolidated financial statements have been restated to
include the accounts and results of operations of Durkan.

Item 2.  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations

     On January 29, 1999, the Company acquired certain assets of Image
Industries, Inc. ("Image") for approximately $193 million, including acquisition
costs and the assumption of $30 million of tax exempt debt. The Image
acquisition has been accounted for under the purchase method of accounting.

     On March 9, 1999, the Company acquired all of the outstanding capital stock
of Durkan Patterned Carpets, Inc. ("Durkan") for approximately 3.1 million
shares of the Company's common stock valued at $116.5 million based on the
closing stock price the day the letter of intent was executed. The Durkan
acquisition has been accounted for using the pooling of interests method of
accounting and, accordingly, the Company's historical consolidated financial
statements have been restated to include the accounts and results of operations
of Durkan.

     These acquisitions have created opportunities to enhance Mohawk's
operations by (i) broadening price points, (ii) increasing vertical integration
efforts, (iii) expanding distribution capabilities and (iv) facilitating entry
into niche businesses.

     Through the Company's restructuring efforts over the past three years, new
information technology systems have been installed throughout all of the
organization, most of which are Year 2000 compliant. In addition, the Company
has concluded identification of all other significant information technology
systems that are not Year 2000 compliant. The Company has completed its review
of equipment and software with the respective vendors from whom the equipment
and software was purchased to address any noncompliance issues. The Company has
identified certain Year 2000 issues with respect to its business systems. The
Company has formed a committee of employees familiar with its information
technology systems to assess and prioritize the need to act, on the basis of
each system's importance, to ensure that its business systems will be made Year
2000 compliant. The Company has also completed a review of all process control
systems, both proprietary and non-proprietary. This review revealed that certain
Year 2000 issues exist. Although the Company can provide no assurances, it
estimates that it will cost no more than $250,000 of incremental costs to make
its business systems Year 2000 compliant. These upgrades have been substantially
completed, and the upgrades that are still in process are expected to be
completed in the third quarter of 1999. Testing of these upgrades is underway
and will be completed in the third quarter of 1999.

     The Company has completed the review of its top suppliers and customers to
determine its progress in becoming Year 2000 compliant. The review indicated
that all of its major suppliers and customers appear to be in the process of
resolving any of their Year 2000 compliance issues and that they do not foresee
any material problems. The Company continues to follow-up with all of its
suppliers and customers to insure that all potential problems, including those
of its individual plant locations and local suppliers, are managed correctly.

     If the Company cannot successfully and timely resolve its Year 2000 issues,
its business, results of operations and financial condition could be materially
adversely affected. The Company has not developed a contingency plan in the
event of a Year 2000 problem, however, based upon the results of its internal
review, the Company does not believe a contingency plan is necessary. The
Company will, however, continue to evaluate the need for a contingency plan.

Results of Operations

Quarter Ended July 3, 1999 As Compared With Quarter Ended June 27, 1998
- -----------------------------------------------------------------------

     Net sales for the quarter ended July 3, 1999 were $790.8 million, which
represented an increase of 15% from the $689.4 million reported for the second
quarter of 1998. The Company believes the second quarter 1999 net sales increase
was attributable to internal growth and the impact of 1998 and 1999
acquisitions.

     Gross profit for the second quarter of the current year was $202.3 million
(25.6% of net sales). In the second quarter of 1998 gross profit was $177.9
million (25.8% of net sales).

     Selling, general and administrative expenses for the current quarter were
$121.4 million (15.4% of net sales) compared to $110 million (16% of net sales)
for the prior year's second period. The decrease was primarily due to better
leveraging of these expenses against a higher sales volume in 1999.

     Interest expense for the current period was $7.8 million compared to $8.1
million in the second quarter of 1998. The primary factor for the decrease was a
decrease in the borrowing rate in the second quarter compared to the second
quarter of 1998.

     In the current period, income tax expense was $28.8 million, or 39.5% of
earnings before income taxes, compared to $23.0 million, or 39.0% of earnings
before income taxes, in the second quarter of 1998. The lower income tax rate in
1998 is due to the impact of prior-year restatements related to the acquisitions
of World Carpets, Inc. ("World") and Durkan.

Six Months Ended July 3, 1999 As Compared With Six Months Ended June 27, 1998
- -----------------------------------------------------------------------------

     Net sales for the first six months ended July 3, 1999 were $1,499.4
million, which represented an increase of 17% from the $1,278.9 million reported
for the first six months of 1998. This sales increase was attributable to
favorable industry conditions and a gain in market share by the Company
resulting from continued emphasis on supporting its dealers and strong
acceptance of new products. Additionally, much of the sales increase can be
attributed to responsive customer service, leadership in product quality and
competitive pricing of products.

     Gross profit for the first six months of the current year was $382 million
(25.5% of net sales). In the first six months of 1998, gross profit was $314.7
million (24.6% of net sales). Much of the increase in gross profit can be
attributed to favorable product mix, improved productivity, lower material costs
and better leveraging of expenses with higher sales volume. Many of these
improvements are primarily attributable to restructuring improvements the
Company has made since 1996.

     Selling, general and administrative expenses for the current period were
$245.5 million (16.4% of net sales) compared to $208.5 million (16.3% of net
sales) for the prior year's first six months.

     Interest expense for the current period was $15.6 million compared to $16.1
million in the prior year's first six months. The primary factor for the
decrease was a decrease in the borrowing rate in the current period compared to
the prior year's first six months.

     In the current period, income tax expense was $47 million, or 39.5% of
earnings before income taxes, compared to $36.2 million, or 40.5% of earnings
before income taxes, in the prior year's first six months. The higher income tax
rate in 1998 is due to the impact of prior-year restatements related to the
acquisitions of World and Durkan.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

     The Company's primary capital requirements are for working capital, capital
expenditures and acquisitions. The Company's capital needs are met through a
combination of internally-generated funds, bank credit lines and credit terms
from suppliers.

     The level of accounts receivable increased from $331.6 million at the
beginning of 1999 to $372.7 million at July 3, 1999. The $41.1 million increase
resulted primarily from seasonally higher sales volume in the second quarter as
compared to December and the acquisition of Image. Inventories rose from $423.8
million at the beginning of 1999 to $528.6 million at July 3, 1999, due to
requirements to meet seasonal customer demand and the acquisition of Image.

     Capital expenditures totaled $233.3 million in the first half of 1999
(including amounts paid for the Image acquisition) and were incurred primarily
to modernize and expand manufacturing facilities and equipment. The Company's
capital projects are primarily focused on increasing capacity, improving
productivity and reducing costs. Capital spending for the remainder of 1999 is
expected to range from $71 million to $81 million, the majority of which will be
used to increase capacity and productivity.

Impact of Inflation

     Inflation affects the Company's manufacturing costs and operating expenses.
The carpet industry has experienced moderate inflation in the prices of certain
raw materials and outside processing for the last three years. The Company has
generally passed along nylon fiber cost increases to its customers.

Seasonality

     The carpet business is seasonal, with the Company's second, third and
fourth quarters typically producing higher net sales and operating income. By
comparison, results for the first quarter tend to be the weakest. This
seasonality is primarily attributable to consumer residential spending patterns
and higher installation levels during the spring and summer months.

Forward-Looking Information

     Certain of the matters discussed in the preceding pages, particularly
regarding anticipating future financial performance, business prospects, growth
and operating strategies, proposed acquisitions, new products, Year 2000
compliance and similar matters, and those preceded by, followed by or that
otherwise include the words "believes," "expects," "anticipates," "intends,"
"estimates," or similar expressions constitute "forward-looking statements"
within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. For
those statements, Mohawk claims the protection of the safe harbor for forward-
looking statements contained in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of
1995. Forward-looking statements involve a number of risks and uncertainties.
The following important factors, in addition to those discussed elsewhere in
this document, affect the future results of Mohawk and could cause those results
to differ materially from those expressed in the forward-looking statements:
materially adverse changes in economic conditions generally in the carpet, rug
and floorcovering markets served by Mohawk; failure of our vendors, customers
and suppliers to timely identify and adequately address Year 2000 compliance
issues; competition from other carpet, rug and floorcovering manufacturers, raw
material prices, timing and level of capital expenditures, the successful
integration of acquisitions including the challenges inherent in diverting
Mohawk's management attention and resources from other strategic matters and
from operational matters for an extended period of time, the successful
introduction of new products, the successful rationalization of existing
operations, and other risks identified from time to time in the Company's SEC
reports and public announcements.

Item 3.  Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

    The Company's market risk-sensitive instruments do not subject the Company
to material market risk exposures.


                          PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1.  Legal Proceedings

    The Company is involved in routine litigation from time to time in the
regular course of its business. Except as noted below, there are no material
legal proceedings pending or known to be contemplated to which the Company is a
party or to which any of its property is subject.

    In December 1995, the Company and four other carpet manufacturers were added
as defendants in a purported class action lawsuit, In re Carpet Antitrust
Litigation, pending in the United States District Court for the Northern
District of Georgia, Rome Division. The amended complaint alleges price fixing
regarding polypropylene products in violation of Section One of the Sherman Act.
In September 1997, the Court determined that the plaintiffs met their burden of
establishing the requirements for class certification and granted the
plaintiffs' motion to certify the class. The Company is a party to two
consolidated lawsuits captioned Gaehwiler v. Sunrise Carpet Industries, Inc. et.
al. and Patco Enterprises, Inc. v. Sunrise Carpet Industries, Inc. et. al.; both
of which were filed in the Superior Court of the State of California, City and
County of San Francisco in 1996. Both complaints were brought on behalf of a
purported class of indirect purchasers of carpet in the State of California and
seek damages for alleged violations of California antitrust and unfair
competition laws. The complaints filed do not specify any amount of damages but
do request for any unlawful conduct to be enjoined and treble damages plus
reimbursement for fees and costs. In October 1998, two plaintiffs, on behalf of
an alleged class of purchasers of nylon carpet products, filed a complaint in
the United States District Court for the Northern District of Georgia against
the Company and two of its subsidiaries as well as a competitor and one of its
subsidiaries. The complaint alleges that the Company acted in concert with other
carpet manufacturers to restrain competition in the sale of certain nylon carpet
products. The Company has filed an answer and denied the allegations in the
complaint and set forth its defenses. In February 1999, a similar complaint was
filed in the Superior Court of the State of California, City and County of San
Francisco, on behalf of a purported class based on indirect purchases of nylon
carpet in the State of California and alleges violations of California antitrust
and unfair competition laws. The complaints described above do not specify any
specific amount of damages but do request injunctive relief and treble damages
plus reimbursement for fees and costs. The Company believes it has meritorious
defenses and intends to vigorously defend against these actions.
