Three and Nine Months Ended September 26, 1998 Compared to Three and Nine Months
Ended September 27, 1997.
- - --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Sales

Consolidated sales for the three and nine months ended September 26, 1998
increased 6.7% and 5.0%, respectively, as compared to the prior year periods.

                                       7 <PAGE>
<PAGE>

The sales increase for the quarter and first nine months of 1998 was primarily
due to higher shipments of occasional, bedroom and commercial furniture.  Dining
room furniture sales were slightly lower for the quarter and nine months ended 
September 26, 1998 as compared to the same periods last year.  Upholstered
furniture sales were lower for the three and nine months ended September 26,
1998 as compared to the prior year periods primarily due to the elimination of
low margin and nonprofitable products.

The sales increase for the first nine months of 1998 was primarily attributable
to higher volume.  Selling prices were slightly higher as compared to a year
ago.  Sales order backlog at the end of the third quarter was at approximately
the same level as compared to the prior year.

Cost of Sales

Cost of sales as a percentage of sales was 74.3% and 74.7% for the three and 
nine month periods ended September 26, 1998, respectively, as compared to 74.6%
and 75.0% for the three and nine month periods ended September 27, 1997.  The
cost percentage decrease for the third quarter of 1998 was primarily due to
improved operating results at the Company's Cochrane Furniture subsidiary and a
more favorable mix of products sold.  The gross margin improvement was partially
offset by manufacturing inefficiencies, primarily due to start-up costs incurred
for new product introductions and employee attrition resulting from tight labor 
market conditions.  In addition, raw material costs and self-insured employee
medical costs were higher as compared to the prior year period.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of sales were 13.7%
and 13.6% for the three and nine month periods ended September 26, 1998 as 
compared to 13.6% and 13.9% for the year ago periods, respectively.  Selling,
general and administrative expenses as a percentage of sales for the third
quarter was up slightly as compared to the prior year quarter due, in part, to
higher incentive earnings and an increase in showroom rent expense.

Interest Expense

Interest expense for the third quarter of 1998 was $224,000 as compared to
$323,000 for the prior year period.  For the first nine months of 1998, interest
expense was $556,000 as compared to $988,000 for the year-earlier period.  The
decrease in interest expense for 1998 was primarily due to lower average bank
borrowings.

Income Tax Expense

The Company's effective tax rate was 39.9% for the three and nine month periods
ended September 26, 1998 as compared to 40.0% for the three and nine month
periods ended September 27, 1997.  The slight reduction in the Company's
effective tax rate was due to lower state income taxes.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The operating activities of the Company provided $4,809,000 of cash during the
nine months ended September 26, 1998 as compared to $5,797,000 during the nine
months ended September 27, 1997.  The decrease in cash generated from operating
activities during the first nine months of 1998 as compared to the prior year
period was mainly due to an increase in working capital investment, primarily in

                                       8 <PAGE>
<PAGE>

inventories and accounts receivable.  Inventories at September 26, 1998 were
$5,603,000 higher as compared to the year ago level.  The build-up of 
inventories was due, in part, to an increase in imported furniture and parts
that require longer lead times to insure timely delivery to customers.  The
Company expects inventory levels to decline in the fourth quarter of this year.
Higher accounts receivable at September 26, 1998, as compared to the prior year
quarter end, were primarily attributable to the increased sales volume in 1998.

The Company invested $2,177,000 in capital expenditures for the first nine 
months of 1998 as compared to $1,783,000 during the year ago period.  The 
Company expects additions to property, plant and equipment to be approximately
$3,200,000 for the year ending December 31, 1998.  Capital expenditures for the
year ended December 31, 1997 were $2,712,000.

The Company's financing activities used $2,636,000 of cash during the first nine
months of 1998 as compared to $4,095,000 used during the first nine months of
1997.  The Company's Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of the
Company's common stock.  For the nine months ended September 26, 1998, the
Company retired 311,248 shares of common stock purchased for $5,584,000.  For
the same period last year, the Company retired 141,600 shares purchased for
$1,895,000.  As of September 26, 1998, 537,152 shares were available for
repurchase under the stock buyback program.

For the first nine months of 1998, the Company financed a portion of its cash
needs through additional borrowings under its bank revolving credit facility. 
Total borrowings under the facility were $11,800,000 at September 26, 1998. 
Unused capacity under the revolving credit facility, after reduction for
outstanding letters of credit, equaled $46,579,000 at the end of the third
quarter.

Year 2000

The Year 2000 issue is the result of computer programs being written using two
digits rather than four to define the applicable year.  The Company has
established committees at its operating subsidiaries to identify Year 2000
issues, including a review and assessment of information technology (IT) and
non-IT systems (embedded technology).  The Company has determined that it will
be required to modify or replace portions of its computer software and hardware
systems so that they will properly utilize dates beyond December 31, 1999.  The
Company has initiated remediation and testing, and estimates that the Year 2000
project will be completed by the end of the second quarter 1999.  The Company
expects to spend approximately $300,000 and $500,000 in 1998 and 1999,
respectively, primarily for computer hardware and operating system replacement,
for Year 2000 compliance.  Most of these expenditures will be capitalized and
funded through operating cash flow.  While the Company has been conducting a
comprehensive Year 2000 review of its IT and non-IT systems, there may be Year
2000-related matters that have not been identified.

The Company has received information from significant suppliers or third party
service providers on their plans to address the Year 2000 issue.  While the
Company expects a successful resolution of its Year 2000 issues, there can be no
assurances that systems of other companies on which the Company relies will be
timely converted or that the failure to convert by another company would not
have an adverse effect on the Company's systems.  The Company has not learned of
any systems of another company on which the Company relies which will not be
Year 2000 compliant.  The Company has initiated development of contingency plans
in the event of a business interruption due to the Year 2000 issue, including
the identification of alternate suppliers.
