Three and Six Months Ended June 27, 1998 Compared to Three and Six Months
Ended June 28, 1997.
- - -------------------------------------------------------------------------
Sales
Consolidated sales for the three and six months ended June 27, 1998 increased
6.3% and 4.2%, respectively, as compared to the prior year periods. The sales
increase for the quarter and first half of 1998 were primarily due to higher
shipments of occasional, bedroom and commercial furniture. Dining room
furniture sales were slightly lower for the quarter ended June 27, 1998 as
compared to the same period last year. For the first six months of 1998, dining
room furniture shipments were at approximately the same level as compared to
last year. Upholstered furniture sales were lower for the three and six months
ended June 27, 1998 as compared to the prior year periods primarily due to the
elimination of low margin or nonprofitable products.
The sales increase for the first six 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 second 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 75.1% and 75.0% for the three and six
month periods ended June 27, 1998, respectively, as compared to 74.6% and 75.2%
for the three and six month periods ended June 28, 1997. The cost percentage
increase for the second quarter of 1998 was primarily due to an unfavorable
product sales mix and higher raw material costs.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of sales were 13.3%
and 13.4% for the three and six month periods ended June 27, 1998 as compared to
14.8% and 14.0% for the year ago periods, respectively. The higher cost
percentage for last year's second quarter was due to an increase in the
allowance for doubtful accounts.
Interest Expense
Interest expense during the second quarter of 1998 was $179,000 as compared to
$347,000 during the second quarter of 1997. For the first six months of 1998,
interest expense was $332,000 as compared to $665,000 for the first six months
of 1997. The decrease in interest expense for the second quarter and first half
of 1998 was due to lower average bank borrowings.
Income Tax Expense
The Company's effective tax rate was 39.9% for the three and six month periods
ended June 27, 1998 as compared to 40.0% for the three and six month periods
ended June 28, 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 $1,803,000 of cash during the
six months ended June 27, 1998 as compared to $2,311,000 during the six months
ended June 28, 1997. The decrease in cash generated from operating activities
during the first half of 1998 as compared to the prior year period was due, in
part, to an increase in working capital investment, primarily in accounts
receivable. Higher accounts receivable at June 27, 1998, as compared to the
prior year quarter end, were primarily attributable to the increased sales
volume in 1998.
The Company invested $1,016,000 in capital expenditures for the first half of
1998 as compared to $1,093,000 during the year ago period. The Company expects
additions to property, plant and equipment to be approximately $3,500,000 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 $787,000 of cash during the first six
months of 1998 as compared to $1,218,000 used during the first six months of
1997. The Company's board of directors authorized the repurchase of the
Company's common stock. For the six months ended June 27, 1998, the Company
retired 293,248 shares of common stock purchased for $5,279,000. For the same
period last year, the Company retired 60,200 shares purchased for $818,000. As
of June 27, 1998, 565,152 shares were available for repurchase under the stock
buyback program.
For the first half 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 $13,400,000 at June 27, 1998. Unused
capacity under the revolving credit facility, after reduction for outstanding
letters of credit, equalled $44,822,000 at the end of the second quarter.

Directors, after full consideration of the facts presented on behalf
of both the Company and the Holder, that the Holder has breached his
employment or service contract with the Company or any Subsidiary, or
has engaged in any act detrimental to the interests of the Company or
any Subsidiary, including without limitation, fraud, embezzlement,
theft, commission of a felony or proven dishonesty in the course of
his employment or service, or has disclosed trade secrets or
confidential information of the Company or any Subsidiary.
(B) Option Price. With respect to agreements evidencing the grant of non-
ISO options, the option price shall be determined by the Board of Directors.
With respect to agreements evidencing the grant of ISO's, except as provided in
Article VII for 10% stockholders, the option price per Share shall be determined
by the Board of Directors at the time any such option is granted and shall be
not less than the Fair Market Value of a Share (determined as of the date the
ISO is granted).
(C) Exercise of Option. All options granted hereunder shall be exercisable
only within the periods determined by the Company's Board of Directors or any
committee thereof duly so authorized and as set forth in the option agreements
entered into pursuant to such determinations and pursuant to the terms of this
Plan. During the lifetime of a Holder, all options granted hereunder shall be
exercisable only by the Holder, except with respect to options transferred by a
Holder to a Family Member. During the lifetime of a Family Member to whom any
options have been transferred in accordance with Article VI, Section (E) hereof,
such options shall be exercisable only by such Family Member. If any of the
events specified in Article VI(A)(i), (ii) or (iii) shall occur before any
unexercised options granted hereunder shall have expired, then those unexercised
options that are still in effect and that either are held by the Holder or by a
Family Member shall expire upon the earliest to occur of the events specified in
Article VI(A)(i), (ii) or (iii). Upon the death of a Holder or a Family Member
to whom any options have been transferred in accordance with Article VI, Section
(E) hereof, any options which were exercisable by such Holder or Family Member
immediately prior to his death may be exercised by the executor or administrator
of the Holder's or Family Member's estate, as the case may be (or, if applic-
able, by the partnership or trust to which the options have been transferred
hereunder); provided, however, that such executor's or administrator's right
4 <PAGE>
<PAGE>
(as well as the right of any partnership or trust to which any options have been
transferred hereunder) to exercise such options shall terminate upon the earlier
to occur of (i) one (1) year following the death of the Holder or the Family
Member, as the case may be; or (ii) the expiration of the option pursuant to
its terms.
(D) Payment of Purchase Price Upon Exercise. The purchase price of the
Shares as to which an option is exercised shall be paid in full to the Company
at the time of such exercise and such payment may be made either (i) in cash,
by certified or bank check or in any combination of cash and certified or bank
check; or (ii) with the consent of the Compensation Committee, and if permitted
by the restrictions in the Company's financing agreements, the purchase price
of the Shares as to which an option is exercised may be paid to the Company, in
whole or in part, in Shares (other than statutory stock option stock as to which
the applicable holding period as provided in Section 424(c)(3) of the Code has
not been met) valued at Fair Market Value on the date of such exercise by either
having such Shares withheld upon exercise of the option or by delivering such
Shares already owned by the Holder. Alternatively, the Compensation Committee
may permit a Holder to elect to pay the purchase price upon the exercise of an
option by authorizing a third party to sell Shares (or a sufficient portion of
the Shares) acquired upon exercise of the option and remit to the Company a
sufficient portion of the sale proceeds to pay the entire purchase price and any
tax withholding resulting from such exercise.
(E) Limited Transferability. No option granted under the Plan shall be
transferable except (i) by will or by the laws of descent and distribution; or
(ii) with respect only to options which do not qualify as ISO's, as may be
transferred by a Holder to a Family Member in accordance with this Section (E).
All options not qualifying as ISO's granted under the Plan shall be transferable
pursuant to this Section (E) regardless of whether such options are vested or
unvested at the time of transfer; provided, however, that any unvested options
transferred pursuant to this Section (E) shall expire and be forfeited by the
transferee if such options do not become fully vested by the times specified in
the option agreements covering such options. An option that is transferred by
a Holder to a Family Member pursuant to this Section (E) is not transferable by
the Family Member, except for any transfer by the Family Member's will or by the
laws of descent and distribution upon the death of such Family Member.
The transfer of options granted under the Plan by a Holder to a Family
Member in accordance with this Section (E) shall be evidenced by a written
agreement duly executed by the Holder, the Family Member and the Company.
(F) Investment Representation. Unless the Shares covered by this Plan are
the subject of an effective registration statement on Form S-8 or any successor
form for registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, of
securities to be offered to employees pursuant to certain plans, each option
agreement shall contain a provision that, upon demand of the Board of Directors,
Holder shall deliver to the Company at the time of any exercise of an option, a
written representation that the Shares to be acquired upon such exercise are to
be acquired for investment and not for resale with a view to the distribution
5 <PAGE>
<PAGE>
thereof. Upon such demand, delivery of such representation shall be a condition
precedent to the right of Holder to purchase any Shares pursuant to the option.
(G) Adjustments in Event of Change in Shares. In the event of any change
in the Shares by reason of any stock dividend, recapitalization, reorganization,
merger, consolidation, split-up, combination, or exchange of Shares, or rights
offering to purchase Shares at a price substantially below fair market value, or
for any similar change affecting the Shares, the number and kind of Shares for
which thereafter an option may be granted and sold under the Plan, the number
and kind of Shares subject to option in outstanding option agreements and the
purchase price per Share, shall be appropriately adjusted consistent with such
change in such manner as the Board of Directors may deem equitable to prevent
substantial dilution or enlargement of the rights granted to, or available for,
Holders. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions in this Article VI(G), no
adjustment shall be made which operates to reduce the option price of any ISO
below the fair market value of the stock (determined as of the time the option
was granted) which is subject to the ISO.
(H) Qualified Options. Each option agreement which provides for the grant
of an ISO to an employee shall contain the legend "Incentive Stock Option" and
such other terms and conditions as the Board of Directors may determine to be
necessary or desirable in order to qualify such option as an ISO within the
meaning of Section 422 of the Code.
(I) Withholding. It shall be a condition to the obligation of the Company
to issue or transfer Shares upon exercise of any option that the Holder pay to
the Company, upon its demand, such amount as may be requested by the Company
for the purpose of satisfying its liability to withhold federal, state or local
income or other taxes incurred by reason of the exercise of such option or the
transfer of Shares thereupon. If the amount requested is not paid, the Company
may refuse to issue or transfer Shares upon exercise of such option. At the
election of the Holder, but only with the consent of the Compensation Committee,
and only if permitted by the restrictions in the Company's financing agreements,
the Company shall have the right to retain upon exercise, or the right to
repurchase from shares already held by the Holder, the number of shares of
Common Stock whose Fair Market Value equals the amount to be withheld in
satisfaction of the applicable withholding taxes or to make loans on the terms
set forth in Article XI(A)(v) to pay the applicable withholding taxes. Each
option agreement shall contain appropriate provisions to effect withholding in
this manner.
(J) Aggregate Limitation. The aggregate Fair Market Value of stock with
respect to which ISO's are exercisable for the first time by an individual in
any calendar year (under all plans of the Company or any Subsidiary) shall not
exceed $100,000. For purposes of this Article VI(J) such Fair Market Value of
stock shall be determined as of the date on which the ISO exercisable with
respect thereto was granted.
(K) Change in Control. In the event of a Change in Control, all
outstanding options shall vest and may be exercised in full without regard to
any restrictions on the vesting of such options contained in the stock option
agreements.

ARTICLE VII
Provisions For 10% Stockholders
If any employee, at the time an option which is intended to qualify as an
ISO is granted to him, owns 10% or more of the total combined voting power of
all classes of stock of the Company or any Subsidiary, the option price shall be
at least 110% of the Fair Market Value of the stock (determined as of the time
of grant) which is subject to the option and any such option shall not be
exercisable after the expiration of five years from the date of grant.
ARTICLE VIII
Prohibitions on Grant of Options
Options Granted Within 10 Years. No option which is intended to qualify
as an ISO shall be granted more than ten years following the earlier of (i)
adoption of the Plan by the Company's Board of Directors or (ii) approval of
the Plan by the stockholders of the Company.
ARTICLE IX
Miscellaneous Provisions
(A) No Rights as Stockholder. No Holder shall have any rights as a stock-
holder with respect to any Shares subject to options granted hereunder before
Holder gives notice of exercise to the Company and tenders the purchase price.
(B) No Rights to Continued Employment. The Plan and any option granted
under the Plan shall not confer upon any Holder any right for continuance of
employment by the Company or any Subsidiary, nor shall they interfere in any
way with the right of the Company or any Subsidiary by which any Holder is
employed to terminate his employment at any time.
(C) Compliance With Other Laws and Regulations. The Plan, the grant and
exercise of options hereunder, and the obligation of the Company to sell and
deliver Shares under such options, shall be subject to all applicable Federal
and state laws, rules and regulations and to such approvals by any government
or regulatory agency as may be required. The Company shall not be required to
issue or deliver any certificates for Shares unless it is satisfied that such
issuance is in compliance with all applicable laws, regulations, rules and
statutes under Federal and state law, and the requirements of any exchange on
which the Shares may then be listed. The Company shall not be obligated to
accept a note in whole or partial payment of the purchase price to the extent
that the amount or terms of any such note shall not be in compliance with all
applicable Federal and state laws, rules and regulations and such approvals by
any government or regulatory agency as may be required.

<PAGE>
(D) Re-issuance of Cancelled Options. Options which were issued in
accordance with the terms hereof, but which are no longer exercisable by reason
of expiration, termination of employment or otherwise, shall be deemed cancel-
led and may be reissued hereunder in accordance with the terms hereof.
ARTICLE X
Amendment and Discontinuance
The Board of Directors of the Company may from time to time amend, suspend
or discontinue the Plan; provided, however, that no action of the Board of
Directors may alter the provisions in a manner to disqualify Plan ISO's under
Section 422 of the Code. Without the written consent of a Holder, no amendment
or suspension of the Plan or option shall alter or impair any option previously
granted to him under the Plan.
ARTICLE XI
Administration
(A) Compensation Committee. The Plan shall be administered by the
Compensation Committee which shall have the power, consistent with the provi-
sions of the Plan, to:
(i) determine and designate from time to time those employees or
directors of the Company or of any Subsidiary to whom options are to
be granted, whether such options are intended to be ISO's and the
number of Shares for which options shall be granted to each such
employee;
(ii) determine the number of Shares subject to each option;
(iii) determine the time or times and the manner when each option
shall be exercisable and the duration of the exercise period;
(iv) establish procedures at the Compensation Committee's discre-
tion, and if permitted by the restrictions in the Company's financing
agreements, for a Holder (1) to have withheld from the total number of
Shares to be acquired upon the exercise of an option that number of
shares having a Fair Market Value, which, together with such cash as
shall be paid with respect to fractional Shares, shall equal the option
exercise price and/or the obligation of withholding for taxes incurred
by the Holder upon such exercise, or (2) to exercise an option by
delivering a number of Shares already owned by him having a Fair Market
Value which shall equal the option exercise price and/or the obligation
of withholding for taxes incurred by the Holder upon such exercise; and
8 <PAGE>
<PAGE>
(v) establish a loan program, if permitted by the restrictions in
the Company's financing agreements, to loan to a Holder who is still
employed by the Company at the time of exercise an amount sufficient
to satisfy the obligation of withholding for taxes incurred by the
Holder upon such exercise and thereafter loan promptly to such Holder
additional amounts sufficient to pay further withholding obligations as
may be determined from time to time to be payable as a result of such
exercise. Any amounts loaned to such Holder shall be evidenced by a
promissory note from such Holder on such terms as are mutually agreed
to by the Compensation Committee and the Holder.
(B) Interpretations. The Board of Directors may interpret the Plan,
prescribe, amend, and rescind any rules and regulations necessary or appropriate
for the administration of the Plan, and make such other determinations and take
such other action as it deems necessary or advisable. Any interpretation,
determination, or other action made or taken by the Board of Directors shall be
final, binding and conclusive.
