NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 1 - In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated
         financial statements contain all adjustments necessary to present 
         fairly the financial position as of March 3, 1996 and the results of 
         operations and cash flows for the three months ended March 3, 1996 
         and February 26, 1995.

Note 2 - The results of operations for the three-months ended March 3, 1996
         and February 26, 1995 are not necessarily indicative of the results to
         be expected for the full year.

Note 3 - On February 16, 1995, the Company completed the sale of its 175,000
         sq. ft. warehouse in Sylmar, California.  The warehouse had been 
         held by the Company as investment property.  The after-tax gain was 
         approximately $3.0 million, net of lost rents during the disposition 
         period.  In June 1995, the Company secured other rental 
         income-producing property to permit a "tax-deferred" exchange with 
         the proceeds realized from this transaction.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
- ------------------------------------------------

UNAUDITED
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Results of Operations:
- --------------------- 

Three Months ended March 3, 1996 Compared to Three Months ended February 26,
1995.

Net shipments during the first three months of 1996 increased by $6,046,000 or
21.0% to $34,793,000 from $28,747,000 in 1995. Management believes that
shipments increased primarily from the addition of new dealers , increased
purchases by existing customers, sales from new company-owned Rowe ShowPlace
locations and favorable product mix. Furthermore, management believes that
overall marketing of the Company's products benefited from the enhanced product
quality and customer service.

Gross profit during the first three months of 1996 increased by $536,000 or 7.6%
to $7,558,000 from $7,022,000 in 1995.  Gross profit as a percentage of net
shipments during the first three months in 1996 decreased to 21.7% from 24.4% in
1995.  Management believes that the percentage decrease was due primarily to
costs associated with hiring and training expenses for new employees, additional
overtime requirements and a wage increase.

Selling and administrative expenses during the first three months of 1996
increased by $891,000 or 16.1% to $6,419,000 from $5,528,000 in 1995. The year
to year increase reflects the opening of additional Rowe ShowPlace locations,
salary increases and direct costs associated with higher sales volume. Selling
and administrative expenses as a percentage of net shipments during the first
three months of 1996 decreased to 18.4% from 19.2% in 1995. The percent decrease
in selling and administrative expenses was the result of increased shipments.

Operating income was $1,139,000 versus $1,494,000 in the prior year. The
decrease related to increases in the cost of sales and selling and
administrative expenses, partially offset by increased sales volume.

Net interest expense during the first three months of 1996 increased by $21,000
or 23% to $111,000 from $90,000 in 1995.  The increase in net interest expense
resulted from additional short-term borrowings.

Other income during the first three months of 1996 decreased by $5,101,000 to
$341,000 from $5,442,000 in 1995.  The decrease in other income was due
primarily to the gain on the sale of investment property in 1995.

Net earnings during the first three months of 1996 decreased by $3,305,000 to
$830,000 from $4,135,000 in 1995. Net earnings for 1995 included the gain on the
sale of investment property of approximately $3,000,000 which was non
recurring.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
- ------------------------------------------------
(UNAUDITED) - CONTINUED
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Liquidity and Source of Capital:
- ------------------------------- 

The Company has historically financed its operations and capital requirements
with internally generated funds and bank or other financing.  The Company has
controlled its capital requirements by improving operating efficiencies in
various aspects of its business, including inventory and receivable management,
labor productivity and product distribution.

Net cash used in  operating activities was $3,262,000 during the first three
months of 1996 versus $890,000 net cash provided in 1995.  Fluctuations in net
cash provided by operating activities are primarily the result of changes in
operating income and changes in working capital accounts.

Capital Expenditures were $789,000 during the first three months of 1996 and
$871,000 in 1995. These expenditures were incurred primarily in connection with
maintaining the Company's production capacity, new ShowPlace locations and
certain additions of equipment and systems.

Net cash provided by financing activities during the first three months of 1996
was $5,254,000 versus $478,000 net cash used in 1995. In 1996, these activities
related primarily to the increase in short-term borrowings.

As of March 3, 1996, the Company had outstanding long-term debt of $513,000
primarily consisting of industrial revenue bonds bearing interest at rates
ranging from 3.5% to 6.0%.

The Company has unsecured short-term bank lines of credit totaling $11 million.
The interest rates on those lines of credit do not exceed the prime rate.  The
amount outstanding under the lines of credit as of March 3, 1996 was
approximately $7.7 million.

Management believes that net cash provided by operating activities and available
bank lines of credit will be sufficient to fund anticipated growth and to meet
the Company's anticipated capital requirements and operating needs through 1996.
