(1) DISTRIBUTION
Effective November 17, 1994, Florsheim Group Inc. (Florsheim or the
Company) became an independent public company. Furniture Brands
International, Inc., formerly known as INTERCO INCORPORATED (INTERCO),
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. 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 CORPORATE HEADQUARTERS BUILDING
On March 20, 1997, the Company completed the sale of the corporate
headquarters building located in downtown Chicago, Illinois. The net
gain on sale of $4,837 is included in non-recurring selling, general
and administrative expenses.
(3) TENDER OFFER FOR SENIOR NOTES
On May 9, 1997, the Company completed its cash tender offer and consent
solicitation relating to its Senior Notes. Approximately $51 million
aggregate principal amount of Senior Notes were tendered, representing
approximately 73% of the $69.45 million aggregate principal amount of
outstanding Senior Notes. The Company also executed a new $110 million,
five-year secured revolving credit facility that replaced the $75
million credit facility described above. An extraordinary loss of
approximately $5.0 million, net of tax, was associated with the tender
premium and expenses related to the repurchase of the Senior Notes and

Item 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
(Dollars in thousands)
OVERVIEW
Florsheim Group Inc. (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 323 company-operated specialty stores and outlet
stores as of July 4, 1998.
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 (old credit facility). Florsheim used the proceeds from the
Senior Notes and $25,000 borrowed under the old 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 May 9, 1997, the Company completed a cash tender offer and consent
solicitation relating to the Senior Notes. Approximately $51 million aggregate
principal amount of Senior Notes were tendered, representing approximately 73%
of the $69.45 million aggregate principal amount of outstanding Senior Notes.
The Company also executed a new $110 million, five-year secured revolving credit
facility (credit facility) that replaces the $75 million old credit facility
described above.

</TABLE>
Net sales for the three months ended July 4, 1998 (Second Quarter 1998) were
$61,812, down $2,403, or 3.7%, as compared to the three months ended June 28,
1997 (Second Quarter 1997). U.S. wholesale net sales increased $207, or 0.9%,
due to 1998 shipments to new accounts offset by reductions in promotional
closeout shipments included in Second Quarter 1997 sales. U.S. retail net sales
decreased $1,275, or 4.4%, as a result of sales reductions from net store
closings partially offset by Second Quarter 1998 same store sales increase of
3.2% at U.S. specialty stores. International sales increased $1,335, or 11.0%,
primarily due to reduced sales in Southeast Asia caused by currency
devaluations.
Gross profit margin for Second Quarter 1998 was 46.4% of net sales, as compared
to 47.2% of net sales for Second Quarter 1997. The decrease was due to a mix
shift to a higher percentage of wholesale sales.
Selling, general and administrative expenses for Second Quarter 1998 were
$25,456, a decrease of $1,984 or 7.2%, from Second Quarter 1997. Selling,
general and administrative expenses for Second Quarter 1998 were 41.2% of net
sales, a decrease from 42.7% of net sales for Second Quarter 1997 partially due
to expense reduction programs.
Earnings from operations for Second Quarter 1998 were $3,194, an increase of
$324, or 11.3%, from Second Quarter 1997, and EBITDA for Second Quarter 1998 was
$4,420, an increase of $241, or 5.8%, from Second Quarter 1997. As a result,
earnings from operations for Second Quarter 1998 were 5.2% of net sales, as
compared to 4.5% of net sales for Second Quarter 1997, and EBITDA for Second
Quarter 1998 was 7.2% of net sales, as compared to 6.5% of net sales for Second
Quarter 1997. EBITDA is presented as a supplemental disclosure and not as an
alternative to earnings from operations or cash flows from operating activities
computed in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles as an
indicator of operating performance. EBITDA is frequently used to analyze
companies on the basis of operating performance, leverage, and liquidity.
Earnings from operations and EBITDA in Second Quarter 1998 are improved from
Second Quarter 1997 primarily due to the reduction in selling, general, and
administrative expenses partially offset by the Southeast Asia currency
devaluation.
Interest expense for Second Quarter 1998 was $2,250 as compared to the Second
Quarter 1997 amount of $2,226. This increase is due to the cost of increased
average outstanding borrowings during the Second Quarter 1998 as compared to the
cost of the average outstanding borrowings during the Second Quarter 1997 and as
a result of the repurchase of the Senior Notes.
An extraordinary loss associated with the tender premium and expenses related to
the repurchase of the Senior Notes and the execution of the new revolving credit
facility was $5,042, net of tax, for Second Quarter 1997.

<PAGE> 19
The diluted earnings per share for Second Quarter 1998, were $0.07 per share, an
improvement from earnings per share before extraordinary item of $0.05 in Second
Quarter 1997. The diluted earnings per share for Second Quarter 1997 after the
extraordinary item was ($0.55).

Net sales for the six months ended July 4, 1998 (First Half 1998) were $120,482,
up $2,916, or 2.4%, as compared to the six months ended June 28, 19976 (First
Half 1997). U.S. wholesale net sales increased $2,273, or 5.4%, due to gains
from increased number of accounts for wholesale distribution. U.S. retail net
sales decreased $3,661, or 6.3%, as a result of sales reductions from net store
closings and First Half 1998 same store sales decrease at U.S. specialty stores
of 2.2%. International sales increased $1,528, or 6.4%, primarily due to reduced
sales in Southeast Asia caused by currency devaluations.
Gross profit margin for First Half 1998 was 46.8% of net sales, as compared to
48.7% of net sales for First Half 1997. The decrease was due to price promotion
activity during the First Quarter 1998, store closings and the mix shift to a
higher percentage of wholesale sales.
Selling, general and administrative expenses for the First Half 1998 were
$50,354, a decrease of $3,578, or 6.6%, from First Half 1997. Selling, general
and administrative expenses for First Half 1998 were 41.8% of net sales, a
decrease from 43.7% of net sales for First Half 1997. The decrease is
attributable to cost reduction programs and store closings.
Earnings from operations for First Half 1998 were $6,080, a decrease of $4,709,
or 43.6%, from First Half 1997, including non-recurring selling, general and
administrative expenses of $4,670. Excluding the non-recurring selling, general
and administrative expenses, earnings from operations for First Half 1997 were
$6,119. EBITDA for First Half 1998 was $8,511, a decrease of $212, or 2.4%, from
First Half 1997, excluding non-recurring selling, general and administrative
expenses. As a result, earnings from operations for First Half 1998 was 5.0% of
net sales, as compared to 8.7% of net sales for First Half 1997, and EBITDA for
First Half 1998 was 7.1% of net sales, as compared to 7.1% of net sales for
First Half 1997. The decrease in earnings from operations and EBITDA in First
Half 1998 is primarily due to store closings and a decrease in same store sales.
The gain of $4,670 in non-recurring selling, general, and administrative expense
for First Half 1997 related to the sale of corporate headquarters building
located in downtown Chicago recorded in First Quarter 1997.
Interest expense for First Half 1998 was $4,316, as compared to the First Half
1997 amount of $4,728. This decrease is due to the lower amount of Senior Notes
outstanding and lower average outstanding borrowings under the credit facility
during the First Half 1998 as compared to the average outstanding during First
Half 1997.
An extraordinary loss associated with the tender premium and expenses related to
the repurchase of the Senior Notes and the execution of the new revolving credit
facility was $5,042, net of tax, for First Half 1997.
The diluted earnings per share for First Half 1998, were $0.13 per share, an
increase from the earnings before extraordinary item per share amount of $ 0.47
in First Half 1997. Included in the First Half 1997 amount was the non-recurring
pre-tax gain of $4,670 generated by the sale of the Company's former corporate
headquarters building.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
WORKING CAPITAL
Working capital at July 4, 1998 was $93,966, as compared to $94,167 at January
3, 1998. The decrease during the First Half 1998 is primarily due to the
inventory reduction programs initiated in First Half 1998 offset by increased
receivables due from customers and capital expenditures. Cash interest payments
totaled $4,193 during First Half 1998, and cash income tax payments were $553
during First Half 1998.
FINANCING ARRANGEMENTS
On May 9, 1997, the Company completed its cash tender offer and consent
solicitation relating to its Senior Notes. Approximately $51 million aggregate
principal amount of Senior Notes were tendered, representing approximately 73%
of the $69.45 million aggregate principal amount of outstanding Senior Notes.
Approximately $18.4 million of Senior Notes remain outstanding. The Company also
has executed a new $110 million, five-year secured revolving credit facility
that replaces the $75 million credit facility described in "Overview".
Borrowings under the new credit facility were used to finance the tender offer
for the Senior Notes.
Further credit facility borrowings will be made from time to time to finance
future liquidity requirements, including the month-to-month working capital
requirements. The revolving credit facility provides for borrowings of up to
$110,000 and other extensions of credit based on a debt-to-EBITDA ratio and
other covenants. The cash borrowings under the credit facility bear interest at
the prime rate plus a factor, currently 1.25 %, or at an adjusted LIBOR rate
plus a factor, currently 2.25 %, depending on the type of loan the Company
executes and various covenant ratios.
As of July 4, 1998, total debt including the Senior Notes outstanding and the
borrowings under the credit facility totaled $85.6 million as compared to $81.4
million as of January 3, 1998.
SEASONALITY OF BUSINESS
In total, the Company's net sales are generally not seasonal; however earnings
from operations and EBITDA tend to be higher in the fourth quarter due to the
proportionately higher retail sales which include both a wholesale and a retail
margin.
