         NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.   CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

     Foamex International Inc.'s (the "Company") condensed  consolidated balance
sheet as of December 28, 1997 has been condensed  from the audited  consolidated
balance sheet at that date. The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of March
29, 1998, the condensed  consolidated  statements of operations for the thirteen
week  periods  ended  March  29,  1998 and  March  30,  1997  and the  condensed
consolidated  statements of cash flows for the thirteen week periods ended March
29, 1998 and March 30, 1997 have been  prepared by the Company and have not been
audited by the Company's independent accountants.  In the opinion of management,
all  adjustments,  consisting only of normal recurring  adjustments,  considered
necessary  for a  fair  presentation  of  the  financial  position,  results  of
operations and cash flows have been included.

     Certain information and note disclosures normally included in the financial
statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting  principles
have been condensed or omitted in accordance  with the rules and  regulations of
the Securities and Exchange Commission.  These condensed  consolidated financial
statements  should be read in conjunction  with the Company's 1997  consolidated
financial  statements  and notes  thereto as set forth in the  Company's  Annual
Report on Form 10-K/A-2 for the fiscal year ended December 28, 1997.

2.   ACQUISITION

     On December 23, 1997, the Company acquired Crain Industries, Inc. ("Crain")
pursuant to a merger agreement with Crain Holdings Corp. for a purchase price of
approximately $213.7 million, including the assumption of debt with a face value
of  approximately  $98.6 million (with an estimated fair value of  approximately
$112.3 million ("Crain Acquisition").  In addition, fees and expenses associated
with  the  Crain  Acquisition  are  approximately   $13.2  million.   The  Crain
Acquisition provided a fully integrated manufacturer, fabricator and distributor
of a broad range of flexible  polyurethane foam and foam products which are sold
to a diverse  customer base,  principally  in the furniture,  bedding and carpet
cushion markets. The acquisition was funded by $118.0 million in bank borrowings
by Foamex L.P.  under a credit  facility.  The excess of the purchase price over
the estimated  fair value of the net assets  acquired was  approximately  $152.5
million.

     The Crain Acquisition was accounted for as a purchase and the operations of
Crain are included in the  consolidated  statements of operations and cash flows
from  the  date of  acquisition.  The  cost of the  Crain  Acquisition  has been
allocated  on the  basis  of the  fair  value  of the  assets  acquired  and the
liabilities  assumed.  The excess of the purchase  price over the estimated fair
value of the net assets  acquired  is being  amortized  using the  straight-line
method over forty years.  The  allocation  of the  purchase  price for the Crain
Acquisition is based upon  preliminary  estimates and assumptions and is subject
to revision once  appraisals,  valuations and other studies of the fair value of
the acquired assets and liabilities  have been completed.  The pro forma results
listed below are unaudited and assume that the Crain Acquisition occurred at the
beginning of fiscal year 1997.

                                                        13 Week Period Ended
                                                           March 30, 1997
                                                             (thousands, 
                                                       except per share data)
       Net sales                                              $306,768

       Pro forma diluted earnings (loss) per share                0.22

     The pro forma  results are not  necessarily  indicative  of what would have
occurred  if the Crain  Acquisition  had been in effect for the  entire  periods
presented nor are they necessarily indicative of future consolidated results.

4.   LONG-TERM DEBT AND LONG-TERM DEBT - RELATED PARTY (continued)

     Refinancing Associated with Transfer of General Felt Common Stock

     In connection  with the transfer of General Felt common stock (see Note 8),
Foamex L.P. amended its agreements with lenders under the Credit Facility, which
included additional  borrowings of $129.0 million under new term loan agreements
that were assumed by Trace Foam LLC (as  discussed in Note 8) and  borrowings of
$32.0 million under the existing  revolving  credit  facility.  These funds were
used to (i) repay  approximately  $125.1  million  of  existing  term  loans and
accrued  interest  thereon of  approximately  $0.9  million,  (ii)  deposit $4.8
million  into an escrow  account in order to defease the Senior  Secured  Notes,
(iii) repay $4.8 million of  indebtedness  owed to General  Felt,  (iv) fund the
$20.0 million to acquire the net assets of General Felt (see Note 8) and (v) pay
fees and expenses of approximately $5.4 million.  Also, this amendment increased
the  availability  under the revolving  credit  facility from $150.0  million to
$200.0 million;  however, $34.5 million of this increase is used for a letter of
credit to support the Foamex/GFI Note.

     Foamex Carpet Revolving Credit

     Upon  consummation  of the  transaction  contemplated by the Asset Purchase
Agreement,  Foamex Carpet entered into a Credit  Agreement with the institutions
from time to time party thereto,  as issuing  banks,  and Citicorp USA, Inc. and
The Bank of Nova Scotia,  as  administrative  agents,  which  provides for up to
$20.0 million in revolving credit borrowings.

     Foamex/GFI Note

     In connection with the transfer of General Felt's common stock, Foamex L.P.
entered  into  the  $34.0  million   Foamex/GFI   Note  to  settle  an  existing
intercompany  note payable to General Felt. The Foamex/GFI Note matures in March
2000 with  interest  payable at LIBOR plus an applicable  margin.  The principal
amount is due upon maturity in March 2000.

     During the thirteen week period ended March 29, 1998, the Company  incurred
approximately $0.2 million to Trace Foam LLC for interest.

     Note Payable to Trace Foam LLC

     In  connection  with the asset  purchase  agreement  for the  General  Felt
transaction  (see Note 8), the Company  entered into a $70.2 million  promissory
note with Trace Foam LLC. The note bears interest at a base rate plus 2.0% or at
LIBOR plus 3.0%. The note matures in February 2004.

     During the thirteen week period ended March 29, 1998, the Company  incurred
approximately $0.5 million to Trace Foam LLC for interest.

     Principal Payments

     Principal  payments  the  Company's  long-term  debt and  long-term  debt -
related  party  for the  remainder  of 1998 and for the next  five  years are as
follows: 1998 - $9.8 million; 1999 - $17.7 million; 2000 - $56.8 million; 2001 -
$17.3 million; 2002 - $17.7 million; and thereafter - $663.6 million.

5.   EARLY EXTINGUISHMENT OF DEBT

     In connection with the GFI Transaction  (see Note 8), the Company  incurred
an extraordinary loss on the early  extinguishment of debt of approximately $1.9
million (net of income tax benefits of $1.2 million).  The extraordinary loss is
comprised of approximately $2.9 million for the write-off of debt issuance costs
and approximately $0.2 million of professional fees and other costs.

5.   EARLY EXTINGUISHMENT OF DEBT (continued)

     During 1997, the Company used approximately $8.4 million of restricted cash
to repurchase  outstanding  indebtedness of  approximately  $8.0 million,  which
resulted in an extraordinary  loss of approximately  $0.4 million (net of income
taxes of $0.3 million).

6.   ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS

     The Company is subject to extensive and changing federal,  state, local and
foreign environmental laws and regulations, including those relating to the use,
handling,  storage,  discharge  and  disposal of  hazardous  substances  and the
remediation of  environmental  contamination,  and as a result,  is from time to
time involved in administrative and judicial  proceedings and inquiries relating
to  environmental  matters.  During the  thirteen  weeks ended  March 29,  1998,
expenditures  in connection with the Company's  compliance with federal,  state,
local and foreign  environmental  laws and  regulations  did not have a material
adverse  effect  on  the  Company's  operations,   financial  position,  capital
expenditures  or  competitive  position.  As of March 29, 1998,  the Company has
accruals of approximately $4.9 million for environmental  matters.  In addition,
as of March 29, 1998,  the Company has net  receivables  of  approximately  $1.1
million relating to indemnification for environmental  liabilities.  The Company
believes that realization of the net receivables established for indemnification
is probable.

     The Clean Air Act  Amendments of 1990 (the "1990 CAA  Amendments")  provide
for the establishment of federal emission standards for hazardous air pollutants
including  methylene  chloride,  propylene oxide and TDI,  materials used in the
manufacturing  of foam. On December 27, 1996,  the United  States  Environmental
Protection Agency (the "EPA") proposed regulations under the 1990 CAA Amendments
that  will  require  manufacturers  of slab  stock  polyurethane  foam  and foam
fabrication  plants to reduce  emissions of methylene  chloride.  Because  these
regulations  are subject to change  prior to  finalization,  the Company  cannot
accurately predict the actual cost of their implementation. The Company does not
believe  implementation  of the  regulations  will  require it to make  material
expenditures  at  facilities  owned  prior  to  December  23,  1997,  due to the
Company's  use  of  alternative  technologies  which  do not  utilize  methylene
chloride and its ability to shift current  production to the  facilities,  which
use  these  alternative  technologies;  however,  material  expenditures  may be
required at the facilities  formerly  operated by Crain. The 1990 CAA Amendments
also may  result  in the  imposition  of  additional  standards  regulating  air
emissions from polyurethane foam manufacturers, but these standards have not yet
been proposed or promulgated.

     The Company has reported to appropriate state authorities that it has found
soil  and  groundwater  contamination  in  excess  of  state  standards  at four
facilities and soil  contamination  in excess of state  standards at three other
facilities.  The  Company  has  begun  remediation  and  is  conducting  further
investigations  into the extent of the  contamination  at these  facilities and,
accordingly,  the extent of the remediation that may ultimately be required. The
actual cost and the timetable of any such  remediation  cannot be predicted with
any degree of  certainty  at this time.  As of March 29,  1998,  the Company has
environmental accruals of approximately $4.3 million for the remaining potential
remediation costs for these facilities based on engineering estimates.

     Federal regulations require that by the end of 1998 all underground storage
tanks  ("USTs")  be  removed  or  upgraded  in all  states  to  meet  applicable
standards.  The  Company  has six USTs that will  require  removal or  permanent
in-place closure by the end of 1998. Due to the age of these tanks,  leakage may
have  occurred  resulting in soil and possibly  groundwater  contamination.  The
Company has accrued $0.1 million for the estimated  removal and remediation,  if
any, associated with these USTs. However,  the full extent of contamination and,
accordingly,  the actual cost of such  remediation  cannot be predicted with any
degree of certainty at this time. The Company believes that its USTs do not pose
a  significant  risk  of  environmental   liability  because  of  the  Company's
monitoring  practices  for  USTs  and  conditional  approval  for the  permanent
in-place closure for certain USTs. However,  there can be no assurance that such
USTs will not result in significant environmental liability in the future.

6.   ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS (continued)

     The Company has been designated as a Potentially  Responsible Party ("PRP")
by the EPA with respect to thirteen sites with an estimated  total  liability to
the Company for the  thirteen  sites of less than  approximately  $0.5  million.
Estimates of total clean-up  costs and  fractional  allocations of liability are
generally  provided  by the EPA or the  committee  of PRP's with  respect to the
specified site. In each case, the  participation of the Company is considered to
be immaterial.

     Although it is possible that new information or future  developments  could
require the Company to reassess its potential  exposure  relating to all pending
environmental  matters,  including those described herein,  management  believes
that,  based upon all currently  available  information,  the resolution of such
environmental  matters will not have a material  adverse effect on the Company's
operations,  financial position,  capital expenditures or competitive  position.
The possibility  exists,  however,  that new  environmental  legislation  and/or
environmental  regulations may be adopted, or other environmental conditions may
be found to exist, that may require  expenditures not currently  anticipated and
that may be material.

7.   LITIGATION

     As of May 15,  1998,  the Company and Trace  Holdings  were two of multiple
defendants  in actions  filed on behalf of  approximately  5,000  recipients  of
breast  implants  in various  United  States  federal  and state  courts and one
Canadian provincial court, some of which allege substantial damages, but most of
which allege  unspecified  damages for personal injuries of various types. Three
of these cases seek to allege claims on behalf of all breast implant  recipients
or other allegedly affected parties, but no class has been approved or certified
by the court. In addition, three cases have been filed alleging claims on behalf
of approximately 700 residents of Australia, New Zealand,  England, and Ireland.
During 1995, the Company and Trace Holdings were granted  summary  judgments and
dismissed  as  defendants  from all cases in the  federal  courts of the  United
States and the state  courts of  California.  Appeals for these  decisions  were
withdrawn and the decisions  are final.  In addition,  two of the cases filed on
behalf of 903 foreign  plaintiffs  were  dismissed on the grounds that the cases
could not be brought in the United  States  courts.  This decision is subject to
appeal.  The  Company  believes  that the  number  of suits  and  claimants  may
increase.  Although  breast implants do not contain foam,  certain  silicone gel
implants  were  produced  using  a  polyurethane  foam  covering  fabricated  by
independent  distributors  or  fabricators  from  bulk foam  purchased  from the
Company or Trace Holdings.  Neither the Company nor Trace Holdings  recommended,
authorized or approved the use of its foam for these  purposes.  While it is not
feasible  to  predict  or  determine  the  outcome  of these  actions,  based on
management's   present  assessment  of  the  merits  of  pending  claims,  after
consultation with the general counsel of Trace Holdings, and without taking into
account  potential  indemnity from the  manufacturers  of  polyurethane  covered
breast  implants,  management  believes that the disposition of matters that are
pending or that may reasonably be  anticipated to be asserted  should not have a
material adverse effect on either the Company's or Trace Holdings'  consolidated
financial  position or results of operations.  In addition,  the Company is also
indemnified  by  Trace  Holdings  for  any  such  liabilities  relating  to foam
manufactured  prior  to  October  1990.  Although  Trace  Holdings  has paid the
Company's  litigation  expenses  to date  pursuant to such  indemnification  and
management  believes Trace Holdings  likely will be in a position to continue to
pay such expenses,  there can be no absolute  assurance that Trace Holdings will
be able to provide such indemnification.  Based on information available at this
time with respect to the potential  liability,  and without  taking into account
the  indemnification  provided by Trace  Holdings and the  coverage  provided by
Trace Holdings' and the Company's liability insurance, the Company believes that
the proceedings  should not ultimately result in any liability that would have a
material  adverse  effect on the financial  position or results of operations of
the Company. If management's  assessment of the Company's liability with respect
to these actions is incorrect, such actions could have a material adverse effect
on the Company.

     In November 1997, a complaint was filed in the United States District Court
for the Southern District of Texas alleging that various  defendants,  including
Crain  through the use of the  CARDIO(R)  process  licensed  from a third party,
infringed on a patent held by  plaintiff.  The Company is  negotiating  with the
licensor of the process for the  assumption  of the defense of the action by the
licensor; however, the action is in the preliminary stages

7.   LITIGATION (continued)

and there can be no assurance as to the ultimate outcome of the action.

     On or about March 17, 1998, five purported class action lawsuits were filed
in the  Delaware  Chancery  Court,  New  Castle  County,  against  the  Company,
directors of the Company,  Trace Holdings, and individual officers and directors
of Trace Holdings:

       Brickell Partners v. Marshall S. Cogan, et al.,  No. 16260NC;
       Mimona Capital v. Salvatore J. Bonanno, et al.,  No. 16259NC;
       Daniel Cohen v. Foamex International Inc.,  No. 16263;
       Eileen Karisinki v. Foamex International Inc., et al.,  No. 16261NC and
       John E. Funky Trust v. Salvatore J. Bonanno, et al., No. 16267.

     A  sixth  purported   class  action  lawsuit,   Barnett  Stepak  v.  Foamex
International  Inc.,  et al.,  No.  16277,  was filed on or about March 23, 1998
against the same  defendants.  The complaints in the six actions  allege,  among
other things,  that the defendants have violated  fiduciary and other common law
duties  purportedly owed to the Company's  stockholders in connection with Trace
Holdings  proposal to acquire all of the shares of the  Company's  common stock.
The complaints seek, among other things, class certification, a declaration that
the defendants  have breached their fiduciary  duties to the class,  preliminary
and permanent  injunctions barring  implementation of the proposed  transaction,
rescission of the transaction if consummated,  unspecified compensatory damages,
and costs and attorneys' fees.

     The  Company is party to various  other  lawsuits,  both as  defendant  and
plaintiff,  arising  in the  normal  course of  business.  It is the  opinion of
management  that the  disposition of these lawsuits will not  individually or in
the  aggregate,  have a material  adverse  effect on the  financial  position or
results  of  operations  of  the  Company.  If  management's  assessment  of the
Company's  liability  with respect to these actions is  incorrect,  such actions
could have a material  adverse  effect on the Company's  consolidated  financial
position.

8.   GFI TRANSACTION

     On February 27, 1998, the Company and certain of its affiliates completed a
series of  transactions  designed to simplify  the  Company's  structure  and to
provide  future  operational  flexibility.  Prior to the  consummation  of these
transactions, (i) Foamex L.P. and Foamex L.P.'s wholly-owned subsidiary, General
Felt, entered into a Supply Agreement and an Administrative  Services Agreement,
(ii) Foamex L.P. repaid its  outstanding  indebtedness to General Felt with $4.8
million  in cash and a $34.0  million  principal  amount  promissory  note  (the
"Foamex/GFI  Note")  supported  by a $34.5  million  letter of credit  under the
credit  facility  (the  "Credit  Facility"),  (iii) Foamex L.P.  contributed  to
General  Felt  $9.4  million  of  outstanding  net  intercompany   payables  and
intercompany  loans with  General  Felt and (iv) Foamex L.P.  defeased  the $4.5
million  outstanding  principal  amount of its 9 1/2% senior  secured  notes due
2000. The initial transaction resulted in the transfer from Foamex L.P. to Trace
Foam LLC of all of the outstanding common stock of General Felt, in exchange for
(i) the  assumption  by Trace  Foam  LLC of  $129.0  million  of  Foamex  L.P.'s
indebtedness  and (ii) the  transfer  by Trace Foam LLC to Foamex  L.P.  of a 1%
non-managing  general partnership  interest in Foamex L.P. As a result,  General
Felt  ceased  being a  subsidiary  of  Foamex  L.P.  and was  relieved  from all
obligations under Foamex L.P.'s 9 7/8% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2007 and 13
1/2%  Senior  Subordinated  Notes due 2005.  Upon  consummation  of the  initial
transaction,  Foamex  Carpet,  a newly  formed  wholly-owned  subsidiary  of the
Company,  the  Company,  Trace Foam LLC,  and General Felt entered into an Asset
Purchase  Agreement  dated  February  27,  1998,  in  which  General  Felt  sold
substantially  all of its  assets  (other  than  the  Foamex/GFI  Note  and  its
operating facility in Pico Rivera,  California) to Foamex Carpet in exchange for
(i) $20.0 million in cash and (ii) a promissory  note issued by Foamex Carpet to
Trace Foam LLC in the amount of $70.2  million.  The $20.0  million cash payment
was  funded  with  a  distribution  by  Foamex  L.P.  Upon  consummation  of the
transaction contemplated by the Asset Purchase Agreement,  Foamex Carpet entered
into a Credit Agreement with the  institutions  from time to time party thereto,
as issuing  banks,  and  Citicorp  USA,  Inc.  and The Bank of Nova  Scotia,  as
administrative  agents,  which  provides  for up to $20.0  million in  revolving
credit  borrowings.  Foamex  Carpet  will  conduct the carpet  cushion  business
previously conducted by General Felt. Also,

8.   GFI TRANSACTION (continued)

Trace  Foam  LLC has  retained  ownership  of one of  General  Felt's  operating
facilities  which is  being  leased  to  Foamex  Carpet  and the  $34.0  million
Foamex/GFI  Note.  

No gain has been recognized on the General Felt net assets  transferred to Trace
Foam LLC and  repurchased  by the Company.  The Company will continue to account
for these net assets using the carryover basis of Foamex L.P. The $129.0 million
of debt assumed by Trace Foam LLC in the GFI Transaction was accounted for as an
extinguishment of debt which resulted in an extraordinary  loss of approximately
$2.0 million.  The 1%  non-managing  general  partnership  interest  acquired in
connection with the GFI Transaction was accounted for as a redemption of equity.
By virtue of the  transfer of General  Felt stock and the  subsequent  merger of
General Felt into Trace Foam LLC, the Pico Riveria  facility was  transferred to
Trace  Foam LLC;  no gain was  recognized  on the  transfer  since  the  Company
leased-back the facility.  The net effect resulted in a charge to  stockholders'
equity (deficit) of approximately $0.5 million.

ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF THE FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
         RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

     The Company  operates  primarily in the flexible  polyurethane and advanced
polymer foam  products  industry.  The  following  discussion  should be read in
conjunction  with the condensed  consolidated  financial  statements and related
notes thereto of the Company  included in this report.  Certain  information  in
this  report  contains   forward-looking   statements  and  should  be  read  in
conjunction with the discussion regarding  forward-looking  statements set forth
on pages 4 and 5 of the Company's 1997 Annual Report on Form 10-K/A-2.

     During  1997,  the  Company's  products  were  utilized  primarily  in five
end-markets;  (i) carpet  cushion and other  carpet  products,  (ii)  cushioning
foams,  including  bedding  products,  (iii)  furniture  products for  furniture
manufacturers and distributors, (iv) automotive applications, including trim and
accessories,  and (v) specialty and technical applications,  including those for
filtration,  gasketing and sealing.  As a result of the Crain  Acquisition,  the
Company has added a sixth end market: consumer products.

     On March 16,  1998,  the  Company  announced  that its  Board of  Directors
received an  unsolicited  buyout  proposal  from Trace  Holdings,  the Company's
principal stockholder. Trace Holdings proposed to acquire all of the outstanding
common  stock of the  Company  not  currently  owned by Trace  Holdings  and its
subsidiaries for a cash price of $17.00 per share. Also, Trace Holdings informed
the Board of  Directors  that  financing  for the  buyout  transaction  would be
arranged through  Donaldson,  Lufkin & Jenrette  Securities  Corporation and The
Bank of Nova Scotia/Scotia Capital Markets. As of March 16, 1998, Trace Holdings
and its  subsidiaries  beneficially  owned  approximately  11,475,000  shares or
approximately 46% of the outstanding common stock of the Company. In response to
Trace Holding's  offer, the Company's Board of Directors has appointed a special
committee to determine the  advisability  and fairness of the proposed buyout to
the Company's stockholders other than Trace Holdings and its subsidiaries. Trace
Holding's  proposed  buyout is subject to a number of conditions,  including the
negotiations of definitive  documents  (which are expected to contain  customary
closing  conditions);  the filing of a disclosure  statement and other documents
with the Securities and Exchange Commission; regulatory filings; and approval of
the transaction by a majority of the Company's  stockholders.  On June 25, 1998,
Trace Holdings increased the cash price to $18.75 per share.

     On February 27, 1998, the Company and certain of its affiliates completed a
series of  transactions  designed to simplify  the  Company's  structure  and to
provide  future  operational  flexibility.  Prior to the  consummation  of these
transactions, the Company defeased the $4.5 million outstanding principal amount
of its 9 1/2% senior secured notes due 2000. Foamex L.P. settled a $38.8 million
intercompany  note payable to General Felt with $4.8 million in cash and a $34.0
million  principal amount promissory note supported by a $34.5 million letter of
credit  under the Foamex L.P.  credit  facility  (the  "Foamex/GFI  Note").  The
initial transaction  resulted in the transfer from Foamex L.P. to Trace Foam LLC
of all of the outstanding  common stock of General Felt, in exchange for (i) the
assumption by Trace Foam LLC of $129.0 million of Foamex L.P.'s indebtedness and
(ii) the transfer by Trace Foam LLC to Foamex L.P. of a 1% non-managing  general
partnership  interest in Foamex L.P. As a result,  General  Felt ceased  being a
subsidiary  of Foamex L.P. and was relieved  from all  obligations  under Foamex
L.P.'s 9 7/8% senior subordinated notes due 2007 and 13 1/2% senior subordinated
notes due 2005. Upon consummation of the initial  transaction,  Foamex Carpet, a
newly formed  wholly-owned  subsidiary of the Company,  the Company,  Trace Foam
LLC, and General Felt entered into an Asset  Purchase  Agreement  dated February
27, 1998, in which General Felt sold substantially all of its assets (other than
the Foamex/GFI  Note and its operating  facility in Pico Rivera,  California) to
Foamex  Carpet in exchange  for (i) $20.0  million in cash and (ii) a promissory
note issued by Foamex  Carpet to Trace Foam LLC in the amount of $70.2  million.
The $20.0 million cash payment was funded by a distribution  by Foamex L.P. Upon
consummation  of the transaction  contemplated by the Asset Purchase  Agreement,
Foamex Carpet entered into a credit agreement with the institutions from time to
time party  thereto,  as issuing  banks,  and Citicorp USA, Inc. and The Bank of
Nova Scotia, as administrative agents, which provides for up to $20.0 million in
revolving  credit  borrowings.  Foamex  Carpet will  conduct the carpet  cushion
business previously conducted by General Felt. Also, Trace Foam LLC has retained
ownership of one of General Felt's operating facilities which is being leased to
Foamex Carpet and the $34.0 million  Foamex/GFI  Note.

         RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

     On December  23,  1997,  the Company  acquired  Crain  pursuant to a merger
agreement with Crain Holdings Corp. for a purchase price of approximately $213.7
million,  including the  assumption  of debt with a face value of  approximately
$98.6 million (and an estimated fair value of approximately $112.3 million) (the
"Crain Acquisition").  In addition,  fees and expenses associated with the Crain
Acquisition are approximately $13.2 million.

     On April 27, 1998, the Company's  facility in Orlando,  Florida was damaged
by a fire.  The  Company  is in the  process  of  repairing  the  damages to the
facility  and  supplying  local  customers  from  other  facilities.  Management
believes  that  the  Company  has  adequate   insurance  coverage  for  business
interruption  and  damages  to the  facility  associated  with the  fire.  After
considering the Company's insurance coverage,  the Company does not believe that
the fire will have a significant  impact on the Company's  financial position or
operations;  however,  there can be no  assurance  that the fire will not have a
significant impact on the Company's financial position or operations.

     On October 6, 1997, the Company sold substantially all of the net assets of
its  needlepunch  carpeting,  tufted  carpeting and  artificial  grass  products
business  located at its  facilities  in Dalton,  Georgia  ("Dalton").  Dalton's
revenues were $10.7 million for the thirteen week period ended March 30, 1997.

     Operating  results  for 1998  are  expected  to be  influenced  by  various
internal and external factors.  These factors include,  among other things,  (i)
consolidation of the Crain  Acquisition,  (ii) continued  implementation  of the
continuous  improvement  program to improve the Company's  profitability,  (iii)
additional  raw  material  cost  increases,  if any, by the  Company's  chemical
suppliers,  (iv) the Company's  success in passing on to its  customers  selling
price increases to recover such raw material cost increases and (v) fluctuations
in interest rates.

13 Week Period  Ended March 29, 1998  Compared to 13 Week Period Ended March 30,
1997

Results of Operations

     Net sales for the first quarter of 1998 were $313.8  million as compared to
$229.1  million in the first  quarter of 1997,  an increase of $84.7  million or
37.0%. Carpet cushion products net sales for the first quarter of 1998 increased
3.8% to $70.5 million from $67.9 million in the first quarter of 1997  primarily
due to net  sales  from the  Crain  operations  offset  by the sale of Dalton in
October  which  contributed  net sales of $10.7 million in 1997 and reduction of
rebond selling prices as compared to 1997 and product mix. Rebond selling prices
were  approximately  12.0%  lower in the  first  quarter  of 1998  versus  1997.
Cushioning  products net sales for the first quarter of 1998 increased  86.3% to
$97.8 million from $52.5  million in the first quarter of 1997  primarily due to
net sales from the Crain operations and increased volume to our national bedding
customers and fabricators. Furniture products net sales for the first quarter of
1998 increased  36.8% to $43.1 million as compared to net sales of $31.5 million
for the  first  quarter  of 1997  primarily  due to net  sales  from  the  Crain
operations.  Automotive  products  net  sales  for  the  first  quarter  of 1998
increased 10.0% to $65.7 million from $59.7 million in the first quarter of 1997
primarily due to increased  volume.  Technical  products net sales for the first
quarter of 1998 increased 20.6% to $21.1 million from $17.5 million in the first
quarter  of 1997  primarily  due to  increased  net  sales  volume  for  felted,
gasketing,  and  sealing  products.  Consumer  products  net sales for the first
quarter of 1998 were $15.6 million.  The consumer products category was acquired
pursuant to the Crain Acquisition in December 1997.

     Gross profit as a percentage of net sales  decreased to 16.3% for the first
quarter of 1998 from 18.7% in the first  quarter  of 1997  primarily  due to the
shift in  product  mix for 1998 as a result  of the Crain  Acquisition.  Crain's
principal product lines, bedding,  furniture and carpet cushion, have inherently
lower gross profit margins than the Company's  historical  gross profit margins.
Also,  the gross profit was lower in the first quarter of 1998 since the Company
carried the full individual operating costs of both organizations.

     Income from operations  increased to $28.8 million for the first quarter of
1998 from $26.8 million in the first quarter of 1997  primarily due to the Crain
Acquisition  offset  by an  increase  in  selling,  general  and  administrative
expenses primarily due to the Crain Acquisition.

ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF THE FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
         RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

     Income before  extraordinary  loss  decreased to $6.2 million for the first
quarter of 1998 as compared to $8.1 million for the first  quarter of 1997.  The
decrease  is  primarily  due to an  increase of  approximately  $3.8  million in
interest and debt issuance  expense,  $0.8 million of costs  associated with the
transfer of General Felt which is included in other income  (expense),  net. The
increase in interest  and debt  issuance  expense is  primarily  due to the debt
incurred  in  connection  with the Crain  Acquisition  offset  by the  favorable
effects of the June 1997 refinancing plan.

     The  extraordinary  loss on early  extinguishment  of debt of approximately
$1.9 million (net of income taxes of $1.2  million)  during the first quarter of
1998  primarily  relates  to the  write-off  of debt  issuance  costs  with debt
extinguished in connection with the transfer of General Felt.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

     Liquidity and Capital Resources

     The  Company  is a holding  company  whose  operations,  as a result of the
February  27,  1998   transactions,   are  conducted  through  two  wholly-owned
subsidiaries,  Foamex L.P. and Foamex Carpet. The liquidity  requirements of the
Company  consist  primarily  of the  operating  cash  requirements  of  its  two
principal  subsidiaries.  Prior to February 27, 1998,  substantially  all of the
Company's operations were conducted through Foamex L.P., which at the time was a
99% owned subsidiary, hence the discussion of historical trends of liquidity and
capital resources related primarily to Foamex L.P.

     Foamex L.P.'s operating cash  requirements  consist  principally of working
capital   requirements,   scheduled   payments  of  principal  and  interest  on
outstanding  indebtedness  and capital  expenditures.  The Company believes that
cash flow from Foamex  L.P.'s  operating  activities,  cash on hand and periodic
borrowings  under the Credit  Facility,  if necessary,  will be adequate to meet
Foamex  L.P.'s  liquidity  requirements.  The  ability  to meet  such  liquidity
requirements  could be impaired  if Foamex L.P.  were to fail to comply with any
covenants  contained in the Credit Facility and such noncompliance was not cured
by Foamex L.P. or waived by the lenders.  Foamex L.P. was in compliance with the
covenants  in the Credit  Facility as of March 29, 1998 and the Company  expects
Foamex L.P. to be in compliance with such covenants for the foreseeable  future.
The ability of Foamex L.P. to make distributions to the Company is restricted by
the terms of its financing agreements; therefore, neither the Company nor Foamex
Carpet is expected to have access to the cash flow  generated by Foamex L.P. for
the foreseeable future.

     Foamex Carpet's operating cash requirements  consist principally of working
capital   requirements,   scheduled   payments  of  principal  and  interest  on
outstanding  indebtedness  and capital  expenditures.  The Company believes that
cash flow from Foamex Carpet's operating  activities,  cash on hand and periodic
borrowings  under Foamex  Carpet's  credit  facility (the "Foamex  Carpet Credit
Facility"),  if necessary,  will be adequate to meet Foamex  Carpet's  liquidity
requirements.  The ability to meet such liquidity requirements could be impaired
if Foamex  Carpet were to fail to comply  with any  covenants  contained  in the
Foamex Carpet  Credit  Facility and such  noncompliance  was not cured by Foamex
Carpet or waived by the  lenders.  The Company  expects  Foamex  Carpet to be in
compliance with such covenants for the foreseeable future. The ability of Foamex
Carpet to make  distributions  to the Company is  restricted by the terms of its
financing agreements; therefore, neither the Company nor Foamex L.P. is expected
to have access to the cash flow  generated by Foamex Carpet for the  foreseeable
future.

     Cash and cash  equivalents  increased  $4.9  million  during  1998 to $16.9
million at March 29, 1998 from $12.0 million at December 28, 1997  primarily due
to  increased  borrowings  offset by an increase  of cash used by the  operating
assets and liabilities.  Working capital  increased $45.2 million during 1998 to
$183.7  million at March 29,  1998 from  $138.5  million at  December  28,  1997
primarily due to the increase in operating net assets (as  discussed  below),  a
decrease in current portion of long-term  debt, a decrease in accrued  interest,
and a net  increase in other  current  assets and  liabilities.  The decrease in
current  portion  of  long-term  debt  is  primarily  due to the  assumption  of
long-term  debt  by  Trace  Foam  LLC  in  connection   with  the  General  Felt
transaction.  The  decrease in accrued  interest  and the net  increase in other
current  assets  and  liabilities  is  primarily  associated  with

ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF THE FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
         RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

the timing of payments for interest and prepaid expenses and the receipt of cash
for other  receivables.  Net  operating  assets and  liabilities  (comprised  of
accounts  receivable,  inventories and accounts payable) increased $24.2 million
during 1998 to $188.5  million at March 29, 1998 from $164.3 million at December
28, 1997 primarily due to increases in accounts receivable and inventories and a
decrease in accounts payable.  The increase in accounts  receivable is primarily
due to an increase in net sales for March 1998 as compared to December 1997. The
increase in accounts  payable and the decrease in account  payable related party
is    primarily    due   to   the   timing   of    payments.    The    Company's
restructuring/consolidation   plan  includes  accruals  of  approximately  $26.9
million of cash  charges of which  $15.6  million is  expected to be paid during
1998.

     As of March 29,  1998,  there  were  $124.9  million  of  revolving  credit
borrowings under the Credit Facility and approximately  $49.5 million associated
with letters of credit  outstanding  which are supported by the Credit  Facility
with unused  availability of approximately  $25.6 million. As of March 29, 1998,
Foamex Carpet Credit  Facility had unused  availability of  approximately  $19.0
million.  Borrowings  by Foamex  Canada,  Inc.  as of March  29,  1998 were $5.1
million  under Foamex  Canada  Inc.'s  revolving  credit  agreement  with unused
availability of approximately $0.9 million.

     Cash flow used for  operating  activities  was $19.3  million for the first
quarter of 1998 as  compared  to cash  provided  of $18.9  million for the first
quarter of 1997.  This decrease is primarily due to (i) a reduction in operating
cash results,  (ii) cash used for an increase in accounts  receivable  and other
receivables  associated  with the timing of receipts  and (iii) a  reduction  in
accounts payable associated with the timing of payments.

     Cash flow used for investing  activities increased to $16.3 million for the
first  quarter of 1998 from cash  provided in the first  quarter of 1997 of $0.9
million for the first quarter of 1997  primarily due to (i) $3.3 million paid in
connection  with the Crain  Acquisition and (ii) $4.8 million deposit to defease
the senior secured notes offset by the use of $8.4 million of restricted cash in
1997 to repaid long-term debt.

     Cash flow provided by financing  activities  increased to $40.5 million for
the first quarter of 1998 as compared to cash used of $8.0 million for the first
quarter of 1997. This increase is primarily associated with borrowings under the
revolving loans to fund the operations of Crain during the first quarter of 1998
offset by the $23.9 million used to fund the GFI Transaction.

     Interest Rate Swaps

     The Company  enters into  interest rate swaps to lower funding costs and/or
to manage interest costs and exposure to changing  interest  rates.  The Company
does not hold or issue financial instruments for trading purposes.

     On January 8, 1998, the Company entered into an amended  interest rate swap
agreement,  which  provides for an interest rate swap  agreement with a notional
amount of $150.0 million through June 2002. Under this agreement, the Company is
obligated to make fixed  payments of 5.78% per annum  through  December 1998 and
variable  payments  based on LIBOR at the beginning of each six month period for
the  remainder  of the  agreement,  in exchange  for fixed  payments by the swap
partner at 6.44% per annum for the life of the agreement,  payable  semiannually
in arrears.  The newly amended interest rate swap agreement can be terminated by
the swap partner at the end of each six month period commencing December 1999.

     The Company is exposed to credit loss in the event of a  nonperformance  by
the swap partner; however, the occurrence of this event is not anticipated.  The
effect of the  interest  rate  swap  agreement  was a  favorable  adjustment  to
interest  and debt  issuance  expense of $0.3  million and $0.9  million for the
thirteen week periods ended March 29, 1998 and March 30, 1997, respectively.

Environmental Matters

     The Company is subject to  extensive  and changing  environmental  laws and
regulations.  Expenditures to date in connection  with the Company's  compliance
with  such  laws and  regulations  did not have a  material  adverse  

                                       17
<PAGE>
ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF THE FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
         RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

effect on operations,  financial position,  capital  expenditures or competitive
position.  The amount of liabilities  recorded by the Company in connection with
environmental  matters as of March 29, 1998 was $4.9 million. In addition, as of
March 29, 1998, the Company has net  receivables of  approximately  $1.1 million
for  indemnification  of environmental  liabilities  from former owners,  net of
approximately  $1.0  million  allowance  relating  to  potential   disagreements
regarding  the scope of the  indemnification.  Although it is possible  that new
information  or future  developments  could  require the Company to reassess its
potential  exposure  to  all  pending  environmental  matters,  including  those
described in the footnotes to the Company's  consolidated  financial statements,
management  believes that, based upon all currently available  information,  the
resolution  of all such pending  environmental  matters will not have a material
adverse  effect  on  the  Company's  operations,   financial  position,  capital
expenditures or competitive position.

Inflation and Other Matters

     There was no significant impact on the Company's  operations as a result of
inflation  during the  periods  presented.  See  "Results of  Operations"  for a
discussion of the impact of raw material price increases. In some circumstances,
market  conditions  or  customer  expectations  may  prevent  the  Company  from
increasing the price of its products to offset the  inflationary  pressures that
may increase its costs in the future.

     The Company's  automotive  products customers are predominantly  automotive
original  equipment  manufacturers or other automotive  suppliers.  As such, the
sales of these  product  lines are  directly  related  to the  overall  level of
passenger car and light truck  production in North America.  Also, the Company's
sales are  sensitive  to sales of new and  existing  homes,  changes in personal
disposable  income  and  seasonality.  The  Company  typically  experiences  two
seasonally  slow periods  during each year, in early July and in late  December,
due to scheduled plant shutdowns and holidays.

Year 2000 Compliance

     The  Company  has and will  continue  to make  certain  investments  in its
software  systems and applications to ensure the Company is Year 2000 compliant.
The Company plans to continue to make  modifications to the identified  software
during  1998 and test the  changes  during  1998.  The  financial  impact to the
Company has not been and is not  anticipated  to be  material  to its  financial
position or results of operations in any given year.

New Accounting Standards

     Statement  of  Financial  Accounting  Standards  No. 130 ("SFAS No.  130"),
"Reporting  Comprehensive  Income,"  was  issued  by  the  Financial  Accounting
Standards  Board in June 1997.  This  statement  requires all items that must be
recognized under accounting  standards as components of comprehensive  income to
be reported in a financial  statement that is displayed with the same prominence
as other financial statements. The Company adopted SFAS No. 130 during the first
quarter of 1998 (see Note 10).

     Statement  of  Financial  Accounting  Standards  No. 131 ("SFAS No.  131"),
"Disclosures  about  Segments of an Enterprise  and Restated  Information,"  was
issued by the Financial  Accounting Standards Board in June 1997. This statement
establishes  standards for reporting  information  about  operating  segments in
annual  financial  statements  and  requires  reporting  of  selected  financial
information  about  operating  segments in interim  financial  reports issued to
stockholders.  It also  establishes  standards  for  related  disclosures  about
products and services,  geographic areas, and major customers.  The Company will
adopt SFAS No. 131 for the year ended 1998  reporting.  Management is evaluating
the impact,  if any, the standard  will have on the  Company's  present  segment
reporting.

     In February 1998 the Financial  Accounting  Standards Board issued SFAS No.
132, "Employers'  Disclosures about Pension and Other  Postretirement  Benefits"
("SFAS No. 132"),  which is effective for fiscal years  beginning after December
15, 1997. SFAS No. 132 revised the required  disclosures about pension and other
postretirement  benefit  plans.  The Company  plans to adopt SFAS No. 132 in the
fourth quarter of 1998.
