(Unaudited)


(1)     DISTRIBUTION

        Effective November 17, 1994, The Florsheim Shoe Company
        (Florsheim or the Company) became an independent public company.
        Furniture Brands International, Inc., formerly known as INTERCO
        INCORPORATED, its former parent company and sole stockholder,
        distributed all of the Company's common stock to existing
        INTERCO shareholders at a rate of one share of Florsheim common
        stock for every six shares of INTERCO common stock (the
        Distribution).  In connection with the Distribution, Florsheim
        issued $85,000 in 12-3/4% Senior Notes due 2002 (Senior Notes)
        and entered into a $75,000 secured credit facility (credit
        facility).  Florsheim used the proceeds from the Senior Notes
        and $25,000 borrowed under the credit facility to pay financing
        expenses and repay its share of outstanding joint and several
        indebtedness issued in connection with the 1992 plan of
        reorganization of INTERCO and its principal subsidiaries.

(2)     SALE OF ASSETS OF HY-TEST SAFETY SHOE DIVISION

        On March 22, 1996, the Company completed the sale of the assets
        of its Hy-Test safety shoe division, including its Kirksville,
        Missouri factory, to Wolverine World Wide, Inc., for an all cash
        sale price of approximately $22,750.  A portion of this cash was
        used to reduce to zero the $17.6 million of outstanding
        borrowings under the Company's bank credit facility as of  the
        sale date.  The balance of the proceeds are available for
        investment in the business and for further debt reduction.
        Annual net sales of the sold business were $38,659 for the
        twelve months ended December 30, 1995.  The net gain on sale of
        $1,850 is included in other income (expense), net.

(3)     NET EARNINGS (LOSS) PER COMMON SHARE

        For the three months ended March 30, 1996, net loss per share
        data was computed using the average weighted shares outstanding.
        Common stock equivalents were not used due to the antidilutive
        effect on the computation.

        For the three months ended April 1, 1995, net earnings per share
        data was computed using the average weighted shares and common
        stock equivalents outstanding.

The Florsheim Shoe Company (Florsheim or the Company), founded in 1892,
designs, markets, manufactures, and sources a diverse and extensive range of
products in the middle to upper price range of the men's quality footwear
market.  Florsheim distributes its products in more than 6,000 department and
specialty store locations worldwide and through 355 company-operated specialty
stores and outlet stores as of March 30, 1996.

Effective November 17, 1994, Florsheim became an independent public company
when Furniture Brands International, Inc., formerly known as INTERCO
INCORPORATED, its former parent company and sole stockholder, distributed all
of the Company's common stock to existing INTERCO shareholders at a rate of one
share of Florsheim common stock for every six shares of INTERCO common stock
(the Distribution).  In connection with the Distribution, Florsheim issued
$85,000 in 12-3/4% Senior Notes due 2002 (Senior Notes) and entered into a
$75,000 secured credit facility (credit facility). Florsheim used the proceeds
from the Senior Notes and $25,000 borrowed under the credit facility to pay
financing expenses and repay its share of the outstanding joint and several
indebtedness issued in connection with the 1992 plan of reorganization of
INTERCO and its principal subsidiaries.

On March 22, 1996, the Company completed the sale of the assets of its Hy-Test
safety shoe division, including its Kirksville, Missouri factory, to Wolverine
World Wide, Inc., for an all cash sale price of approximately $22,750.  Annual
net sales of the sold business were $38,659 for the twelve months ended
December 30, 1995.

=============================================================================================================================
</TABLE>


Net sales for the three months ended March 30, 1996 (First Quarter 1996) were
$61,927, down $9,204, or 12.9%, as compared to the three months ended April 1,
1995 (First Quarter 1995).  U.S. wholesale net sales decreased $3,255, or
16.1%, due to unit volume decreases, primarily due to difficult market
conditions.  U.S. retail net sales decreased $1,655, or 5.7%, as additional
sales from stores opened during or after the First Quarter 1995 were more than
offset by store closings and First Quarter 1996 same store sales decrease of
3.1% at U.S. specialty stores.  International sales increased $870, or 8.9%,
primarily due to increased wholesale distribution.  Hy-Test sales were down
$5,164, or 42.6%, due to unit volume decreases reflecting the sale of Hy-Test
on March 22, 1996 and a slowdown in orders due to difficult market conditions.

Gross profit margin for First Quarter 1996 was 45.0% of net sales, as compared
to 44.8% of net sales for First Quarter 1995.  A decrease due to reduced unit
volumes and price promotion activity was offset by a mix change to a higher
percentage of retail sales which carry a higher gross margin.

Selling, general and administrative expenses for First Quarter 1996 were
$26,883, a decrease of $1,100 or 4.0%, from First Quarter 1995.  Selling,
general and administrative expenses for First Quarter 1996 were 43.4% of net
sales, an increase from 39.3% of net sales for First  Quarter 1995 as a result
of sales volume decreases. Expense decreases due to the Company's expense
reduction programs were partially offset by increased selling costs.

Earnings from operations for First Quarter 1996 were $1,001, a decrease of
$2,897 or 74.3%, from First Quarter 1995, and EBITDA for First Quarter 1996 was
$2,200, a decrease of $2,943 or 57.2%, from First Quarter 1995, with the
decreases due primarily to sales decreases and price promotion activity. As a
result, earnings from operations for First Quarter 1996 were 1.6% of net sales,
as compared to 5.5% of net sales for First Quarter 1995, and EBITDA for First
Quarter 1996 was 3.6% of net sales, as compared to 7.2% of net sales for First
Quarter 1995.

The net gain on the sale of the assets of  the Hy-Test business, $1,850, is
included in other income (expense), net in First Quarter 1996.

Interest expense for First Quarter 1996 was $2,794, as compared to the First
Quarter 1995 amount of $3,468.  This decrease is due to the lower amount of
Senior Notes outstanding in First Quarter 1996 and lower average outstanding
borrowings under the credit facility during the First Quarter 1996 as compared
to the average outstanding borrowings during the First Quarter 1995.

Pro forma Comparisons

The following pro forma financial data reflects the sale of the assets of
Hy-Test as if the sale had occurred as of January 1, 1995 for pro forma
statement of operations purposes and as of December 30, 1995 for pro forma
balance sheet purposes.  The pro forma data excludes the net sales and direct
costs of the Hy-Test division and the Hy-Test operating profit contribution to
central overhead costs.  Management believes that the assumptions used provide
a reasonable basis on which to present the pro forma condensed financial data.
The pro forma data are presented for informational purposes only and are not
necessarily indicative of the results that would have been achieved had the
transaction actually been consummated as of such dates.

===========================================================================================
</TABLE>


Pro forma net sales for First Quarter 1996 were $4,021 (6.8%) lower than for
First Quarter 1995.  As noted above, the reductions were primarily due to
decreases in U.S. wholesale unit volume and same store sale decreases at
Company-operated stores.

Pro forma earnings from operations and pro forma EBITDA for First Quarter 1996
were $1,357 and $1,371, respectively, lower than First Quarter 1995.  As noted
above, the decreases were a result of lower sales volume and increased price
promotion activity partially offset by expense reduction.

The pro forma operations data percentages reflect the elimination of Hy-Test
without a corresponding reduction in central overhead.  As the result of the
asset sale, the Company's sales mix shifts to a higher percentage of the total
sales from the Company-operated retail stores.  Accordingly, the pro forma
gross profit increases as a percent of sales as compared to historical results
with an offsetting increase in the pro forma selling, general and
administrative expenses as a percent of sales as compared to historical
results.

The pro forma balance sheet data reflects the sale of Hy-Test receivables and
inventory,  the sale of  the Kirksville, Missouri factory, the transfer of
certain liabilities to Wolverine, the use of cash proceeds from the sale to
eliminate outstanding borrowings under the bank credit facility, and the
unapplied balance of the cash proceeds from the sale, net of transaction costs
and taxes as a  result of  the transaction.


LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

     WORKING CAPITAL

As part of a continuing effort to decrease working capital requirements, the
Company initiated a program in 1994 to identify additional opportunities to
reduce working capital.  To date, the Company has been successful in
significantly reducing its inventory requirements by: (i) eliminating poor
performing product styles; (ii) reducing the range of sizes and eliminating
duplication of its products; (iii) reducing inventory at Company-operated
stores; (iv) reducing inventory at the Company's Jefferson City, Missouri
distribution center by redesigning certain processes and systems; (v) expanding
supplier partnering programs to reduce lead times and improve quality of raw
materials; and (vi) redesigning management incentives to emphasize working
capital improvements.  Under this program, inventory was  reduced $27,357
during the 1995 fiscal year.  During the three months ended March 30, 1996, the
Company reduced inventory by  $11,064, primarily due to the sale of the assets
of the Hy-Test division.  The Company intends to continue to implement its
inventory reduction initiatives.

Working capital at March 30, 1996 was $103,334, as compared to $111,922 at
December 30, 1995.  The decrease is primarily due to the sale of assets of the
Hy-Test division and the use of a portion of the cash proceeds to reduce to
zero the $17.6 million of outstanding borrowings under the Company's bank
credit facility as of the sale date.  Cash interest payments totaled $4,827
during First Quarter 1996, and cash income tax payments were $853 during First
Quarter 1996.


     FINANCING ARRANGEMENTS

Credit facility borrowings will  be made from time to time to finance future
liquidity requirements, including seasonal working capital requirements.
Maximum availability under the facility is determined by the amount of eligible
accounts receivable and inventory at month end (borrowing base).  The Company
had no seasonal borrowings outstanding at March 30, 1996.  On March 22, 1996,
cash proceeds from the sale of the assets of Hy-Test were used to reduce to
zero the $17.6 million then outstanding balance under the Company's bank credit
facility.  The credit facility provides for borrowings of up to $75,000 based
on a borrowing base formula and includes, as part of and not in addition to the
$75,000 credit limit, a subfacility for the issuance of up to an aggregate of
$60,000 in letters of credit for issuance to Florsheim suppliers in connection
with the importation of foreign goods and for other corporate purposes and
foreign currency hedging obligations.  As of March 30, 1996, the Company's
borrowing base was approximately $37,500, outstanding letters of credit were
$2,220, and outstanding borrowings under the credit facility were zero as
compared to $10,676 at December 30, 1995.  The borrowing base was reduced by
approximately $11 million due to the sale of the assets of Hy-Test.

On March 22, 1996, the Company received an amendment to its credit facility
agreement allowing it to purchase on the open market (and retire) Senior Notes
using up to $15,000 of proceeds from the credit facility. Such repurchases, if
executed, will enable the Company to reduce its interest expense by replacing a
portion of the Senior Notes with lower cost debt from the credit facility.
However, the amount of availability under the credit facility to meet working
capital and other borrowing needs is reduced by the amount borrowed for the
purpose of purchasing Senior Notes, and the term of the credit facility is less
than the maturity date of the Senior Notes. Nevertheless, Florsheim believes
that available borrowings under the credit facility, together with cash
generated from operations, will be adequate to meet debt service, capital
expenditures, and other liquidity requirements for the foreseeable future.

As of March 30, 1996, the Company had made no purchases of Senior Notes under
the amendment.

SEASONALITY OF BUSINESS

Typically, the Company's net sales are somewhat seasonal with slightly greater
net sales occurring in the fourth quarter of each fiscal year.

(1)  Include common stock options, the exercise of which would result in
     dilution of net earnings per share.  If the average common stock price
     was higher than the common stock option exercise price during the
     period, common stock options were considered as exercised and the
     proceeds assumed to be used to purchase common stock at the average
     common stock market price.

(2)  Common stock options were not included since the exercise of
     which would have had an antidilutive effect on the net loss per share.
