Industry
The United States floor covering industry has grown from $12.4 billion in sales in 1992 to $22.8$24.1 billion in 2004.2005. In 2004,2005, the primary categories of the United States floor covering industry were carpet and rug (62%), ceramic tile (13%), hardwood (10%(11%), resilient and rubber (9%(8%), and laminate (6%). Each of these categories has been positively impacted by:
• increases
changes in average selling price per square foot;
•
increases in the residential builder and homeowner remodeling markets;
• growth in
housing starts and housing resales;
•
increases in average house size; and
•
increases in home ownership.
Compound average growth rates for all categories, except the resilient and rubber category, for the period from 19992002 through 20042005 have met or exceeded the growth rates (measured in sales dollars) for the gross domestic product of the United States over the same period. Ceramic tile, laminate and hardwood continued to exceed the growth rate for housing starts over the same period. During this period, the compound average growth rate was 3.0%3.8% for carpets and rugs, 7.0%7.3% for ceramic tile, 0.6%6.6% for resilient and rubber, 17.4%21.1% for laminate and 9.4%8.0% for hardwood.
According to the most recent figures available from the United States Department of Commerce,Floor Covering Weekly, worldwide carpet and rug sales volume of American manufacturers and their domestic divisions was approximately 2.3 billion square yards in 2004.2005. This volume represents a market in excess of $14$14.9 billion.
The overall level of sales in the overall floor covering industry is influenced by a number of factors, including consumer confidence, spending for durable goods, interest rates, turnover in housing, the condition of the residential and commercial construction industries and the overall strength of the economy.
Broadloom carpet is defined as carpet over six feet by nine feet in size and has two primary markets, residential and commercial, withcommercial. In 2005, the residential market makingmade up approximately 76%75% of industry amounts shipped in 2004 and the commercial market comprisingcomprised approximately 24%25%. An estimated 49% of industry shipments are made in response to replacement demand, which usually involves exact yardage, or "cut“cut order,"” shipments that typically provide higher profit margins than sales of carpet sold in full rolls. Because the replacement business generally involves higher quality carpet cut to order by the manufacturer, rather than the dealer, this business tends to be more profitablehave higher margins for manufacturers than the new construction business.
The United States ceramic tile industry shipped 3.13.3 billion square feet, or $2.9$3.1 billion, in 2004.2005. Sales in the ceramic tile industry are influenced by the same factors that influence the carpetoverall floor covering industry, including consumer confidence, spending for durable goods, interest rates, turnover in housing, the condition of the residential and commercial construction industries and the overall strength of the economy.
The ceramic tile industry'sindustry’s two primary markets, residential applications and commercial applications, represent 69.8%70.5% and 28.8%28.2% of the industry total, respectively. Of the total residential market, 61%60% of the dollar values of shipments are for new construction.
In 2004,2005, the United States laminate industry shipped 1.11.3 billion square feet, representing a market of approximately $1.4$1.5 billion, and the European laminate industry shipped 5.2 billion square feet. In 2003,2004, the laminate industry accounted for approximately 10% of the European floor covering markets.market. Sales in the laminate industry are influenced by the samesimilar factors that influence the carpetoverall floor covering industry, including consumer confidence, spending for durable goods, interest rates, turnover in housing, the condition of the residential and commercial construction industries and the overall strength of the economy. Sales of U.S. laminate flooring are primarily distributed through the residential replacement market. Sales to other end user markets are not significant.

Although temporary disruptions of supply of carpet raw materials have beenwere experienced in 2005 as a result of recent hurricanes, the carpet and rug business has not experienced significant shortages of raw materials in recent years. The Company believes that there is an adequate supply of all grades of resin and fiber, which are readily available.
Dal-Tile Segment
Dal-Tile Segment
In the ceramic tile business, the Company manufactures tile primarily from clay, talc, nepheline syenite and glazes. The Company has entered into a long-term supply agreement for most of its talc requirements.
The Company owns long-term clay mining rights in Alabama, Kentucky and Mississippi that satisfy nearly all of its clay requirements for producing unglazed quarry tile. The Company purchases a number of different grades of clay for the manufacture of its non-quarry tile. The Company believes that there is an adequate supply of all grades of clay and that all are readily available from a number of independent sources.
The Company has two suppliers for its nepheline syenite requirements. If these suppliers were unable to satisfy the requirements, the Company believes that alternative supply arrangements would be available.
Glazes are used on a significant percentage of manufactured tile. Glazes consist of frit (ground glass), zircon, stains and other materials, with frit being the largest ingredient. The Company manufactures approximately 45%43% of its frit requirements.
Unilin Segment
The principal raw materials used in producing boards and laminate flooring are wood, paper and resin.
Wood supply is a very fragmented market in Europe. The Company has long-standing relationships with approximately 25 suppliers. These suppliers provide a wide variety of wood species, varying from fresh round wood to several kinds of by-products of sawmills and used wood recycled specifically for chipboard production, giving the Company a cost-effective and secure supply of raw material.
In the United States, the Company has a long-term contract with a strategic partnercontiguously located lumber company that supplies approximately 90%most of its total needs for wood on a vendor-managed inventory program.wood.
Major manufacturers supply the papers required in the laminate flooring business in both Europe and the United States. The Company does more than 90%manufactures most of the paper impregnation internally in its laminate flooring facilities in Europe and the United States. In Europe, the resins for paper impregnation are manufactured by the Company, which permits greater control over the laminate flooring manufacturing process, enabling the Company to produce higher-quality products.
The Company buys the balance of its resin requirements from a number of companies. The Company believes there are ample sources of supply. All the plants of the Company aresupply located within a reasonable distance of about 100 miles to the chemical plants manufacturing those types of resins used in its laminate products.Unilin’s facilities.
Competition
The principal methods of competition within the floor covering industry generally are service, style, quality, price and, to a certain extent, product innovation and technology. In each of the markets other than laminate flooring, price competition and market coverage are particularly important because there is limited differentiation among competing product lines. In the laminate flooring market, the Company believes it has a competitive advantage as a result of Unilin's high-end productsUnilin’s industry leading design and patented technologies, which allows the Company to distinguish its laminate flooring products in the areas of finish, quality, installation and assembly. In the Mohawk and Dal-Tile segments, the recent investments in modernized advanced manufacturing, and data processing, equipment, the extensive diversity of equipment, that has been invested, as well as the Company'sCompany’s marketing strategy and distribution system contribute to its ability to compete primarily on the basis of performance, quality, style and service, rather than just price. The carpet and rug industry has experienced substantial consolidation in recent years, and the Company is one of the largest carpet and rug manufacturers in the world. While the ceramic tile industry is more fragmented, the Company believes it is substantially larger than the next largest competitor and that it is the only significant manufacturer with its own North American distribution system. The laminate flooring industry has a number of significant competitors more than either the carpet and rug industry or the ceramic tile industry. The Company faces competition in the laminate flooring market from a large number of domestic and foreign manufacturers.
Mohawk Segment
The carpet and rug industry is highly competitive. Based on industry publications, the top 20 North American carpet and rug manufacturers (including their American and foreign divisions) in 20042005 had worldwide sales in excess of $12.5 billion, and in 1998 the top 20 manufacturers had sales in excess of $9.6 billion. In 2004, 2005,
the top five manufacturers had worldwide sales in excess of $10.0 billion. The Company believes it is the second largest producer of carpets and rugs (in terms of sales volume) in the world based on its 20042005 sales.
Dal-Tile Segment
The Company estimates that over 100 tile manufacturers, more than half of which are based outside the United States, compete for sales of ceramic tile to customers located in the United States. Although the U.S. ceramic tile industry is highly fragmented at both the manufacturing and distribution levels, the Company believes it is one of the largest manufacturers, distributors and marketers of ceramic tile in the United States and the world.
Unilin Segment
Laminate flooring is the fastest growing product in the U.S. floor covering industry and is produced by more than 130 industrial manufacturers in 25 countries. The Company believes it is one of the largest manufacturers, distributors and marketers of laminate flooring in the world, with a focus on high-end products. The Company is also the onlylargest vertically-integrated laminate flooring manufacturer in the United States producing both high density fiberboard and laminate flooring.

Certain Factors affecting the Company's Performance
In addition to the other information provided in this Annual Report on Form 10-K, the following risk factors should be considered when evaluating an investment in shares of Common Stock.
If any of the events described in these risks were to occur, it could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations.
|
The floor covering industry is sensitive to changes in general economic conditions, such as consumer confidence and income, corporate and government spending, interest rate levels and demand for housing. A prolonged decline in spending for replacement floor covering products or new construction activity could have a material adverse effect on the Company'sCompany’s business.
The floor covering industry in which the Company participates is highly dependent on general economic conditions, such as consumer confidence and income, corporate and government spending and interest rate levels. The Company derives a majority of the Company'sCompany’s sales from the replacement segment of the market. Therefore, economic changes that result in a prolonged decline in spending for remodeling and replacement activities could have a material adverse effect on the Company'sCompany’s business and results of operations.
The floor covering industry is highly dependent on construction activity, including new construction, which is cyclical in nature. Although the impact of a decline in new construction activity is typically accompanied by an increase in remodeling and replacement activity, a prolonged decline in residential or commercial construction activity could have a material adverse effect on the Company'sCompany’s business and results of operations.
The construction industry has experienced significant downturns in the past, which have adversely affected suppliers to the industry. The industry could experience similar downturns in the future, which could have a negative impact on the Company'sCompany’s business.
The Company may be unable to pass increases in the costs of raw materials and fuel-related costs on to its customers, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company'sCompany’s profitability.
The prices of raw materials and fuel-related costs vary with market conditions. As a result of recent hurricanes and other general economic factors, the Company'sThe Company’s costs offor carpet raw materials and fuel-related costsmaterials are currently higher than historical averages and may remain so indefinitely. Although the Company generally attempts to pass on increases in the costs of raw materialsmaterial and fuel-related costs to its customers, the Company'sCompany’s ability to do so is dependent upon the rate and magnitude of any increase, competitive pressures and market conditions for the Company'sCompany’s products. There have been in the past, and may be in the future, periods of time during which increases in these costs cannot be recovered. During such periods of time, the Company'sCompany’s profitability may be materially adversely affected.
The Company faces intense competition in the industry, which could decrease demand for the Company'sCompany’s products or force it to lower prices, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company'sCompany’s profitability.
The floor covering industry is highly competitive. The Company faces competition from a number of manufacturers and independent distributors. Some of the Company'sCompany’s competitors are larger and have greater resources and access to capital than the Company does. Maintaining the Company'sCompany’s competitive position may require substantial investments in the Company'sCompany’s product development efforts, manufacturing facilities, distribution network and sales and marketing activities. Competitive pressures may also result in decreased demand for the Company'sCompany’s products or force the Company to lower prices. Any of these factors could have a material adverse effect on the Company'sCompany’s business.
The Company may experience certain risks associated with acquisitions.
The Company has typically grown its business through acquisitions. Growth through acquisitions involves risks, many of which may continue to affect the Company after the acquisition. The Company can not be able to successfully integrate Unilin or other acquisitionsgive assurance that an acquired company will achieve the levels of revenue, profitability and production that the Company may make in the future.
expects. The processcombination of combining the businesses of Unilinan acquired company’s business with the Company'sCompany’s existing businesses involves risks. The Company can not be assured that reported earnings will meet expectations because of goodwill and intangible asset impairment, increased interest costs and issuance of additional securities or incurrence of debt. The Company may also face challenges in consolidating functions, integrating the Company'sCompany’s organizations, procedures, operations and product lines in a timely and efficient manner and retaining key personnel. These challenges willmay result principally because the two companies currentlyin:
maintain
maintaining executive offices in different locations;
manufacture
manufacturing and sellselling different types of products through different distribution channels;
conduct
conducting business from various locations;
maintain
maintaining different operating systems and software on different computer hardware; and
have
providing different employment and compensation arrangements for their employees.
|
In addition, the majority of Unilin's operating facilities are located in Europe, where the Company has not previously operated a manufacturing facility. As a result, the integration will be complex and will require additional attention from members of management. The diversion of management attention and any difficulties encountered in the transition and integration process could have a material adverse effect on the Company'sCompany’s revenues, level of expenses and operating results. The Company may face similar challenges in combining the Company's businesses with any other businesses that the Company acquires in the future.
Failure to successfully manage and integrate Unilinan acquisition with the Company'sCompany’s existing operations could lead to the potential loss of customers of the acquired business, the potential loss of employees who may be vital to the new operations, the potential loss of business opportunities or other adverse consequences that could affect the Company'sCompany’s financial condition and results of operations. Even if integration occurs successfully, failure of the Unilin Acquisition or any future acquisition to achieve levels of anticipated sales growth, profitability or productivity or otherwise not perform as expected, may adversely impact the Company'sCompany’s financial condition and results of operations. The Company has incurred, and will continue to incur, certain liabilities and expenses in connection with the Unilin Acquisition or any future acquisitions.
The Company has not yet completed the testing of the adequacy of Unilin's internal control over financial reporting, and it is possible that the Company's testing or that of the Company's independent auditors in connection with the audit of the Company's financial results for the year ended December 31, 2006, will reveal material weaknesses in Unilin's internal control over financial reporting.
As part of the integration of Unilin, the Company is in the process of documenting and testing of the Unilin's internal control over financial reporting to allow management and the Company's independent registered public accounting firm to report in 2006 on the effectiveness of the internal control over financial reporting as it pertains to Unilin's operations. The adequacy of Unilin's internal control over financial reporting has not previously been attested to by any independent accounting firm, as no such attestation was required by virtue of Unilin's status as a foreign, privately-held company. The Company anticipates completing the testing of Unilin's internal control over financial reporting by the end of 2006. The Company's testing, or the subsequent testing by the Company's independent registered public accounting firm, may reveal deficiencies in the Company's internal control over financial reporting. In that event, the Company's management may not be able to report that the Company's internal control over financial reporting is effective, and the Company's auditors will not be able to express an opinion on the Company's internal control over financial reporting, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business.
A failure to identify suitable acquisition candidates and to complete acquisitions could have a material adverse effect on the Company'sCompany’s business.
As part of the Company'sCompany’s business strategy, the Company intends to continue to pursue acquisitions of complementary businesses. Although the Company regularly evaluates acquisition opportunities, the Company may not be able successfully to identify suitable acquisition candidates; to obtain sufficient financing on acceptable terms to fund acquisitions; to complete acquisitions;acquisitions and integrate acquired businesses with the Company’s existing businesses; or to manage profitably acquired businesses.
The Company may be unable to obtain raw materials on a timely basis, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company'sCompany’s business.
The principal raw materials used in the Company'sCompany’s manufacturing operations include nylon and polyester and polypropylene resins and fibers, and carpet backings, which are used primarily in the Company'sCompany’s carpet and rugs business; talc,
clay, nepheline syenite and various glazes, including frit (ground glass), zircon and stains, which are used exclusively in the Company'sCompany’s ceramic tile business; wood, paper, and resins which are used primarily in the Company'sCompany’s laminate flooring business; and other materials. An extended interruption in the supply of these or other raw materials used in the Company'sCompany’s business or in the supply of suitable substitute materials would disrupt the Company'sCompany’s operations, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company'sCompany’s business.
|
The Company has been, and in the future may be, subject to claims and liabilities under environmental, health and safety laws and regulations, which could be significant.
The Company'sCompany’s operations are subject to various environmental, health and safety laws and regulations, including those governing air emissions, wastewater discharges, and the use, storage, treatment and disposal of hazardous materials. The applicable requirements under these laws are subject to amendment, to the imposition of new or additional requirements and to changing interpretations of agencies or courts. The Company could incur material expenditures to comply with new or existing regulations, including fines and penalties.
The nature of the Company'sCompany’s operations, including the potential discovery of presently unknown environmental conditions, exposes it to the risk of claims under environmental, health and safety laws and regulations. The Company could incur material costs or liabilities in connection with such claims.
Changes in international trade laws and in the business, political and regulatory environment in Mexico and Europe could have a material adverse effect on the Company'sCompany’s business.
The Company's Monterrey, Mexico manufacturing facility and the Company'sCompany’s manufacturing facilities in Mexico and Europe represent a significant portion of the Company's total manufacturingCompany’s capacity for ceramic tile and laminate flooring, respectively. In addition, as a result of the Unilin Acquisition, the Company now has more significant general operations abroad, particularly in Europe. Accordingly, an event that has a material adverse impact on the Company's Mexican operationseither operation could have a material adverse effect on the Company's tile operations as a whole. Similarly, an event that has a material adverse impact on the Company's European operations could have a material adverse effect on the Company's laminate flooring operations, as a whole.Company. The business, regulatory and political environments in Mexico and in Europe differ from those in the United States, and the Company'sCompany’s Mexican and European operations are exposed to legal, currency, tax, political, and economic risks specific to the countries in which they occur, particularly with respect to labor regulations, which tend to be more stringent in Europe and, to a lesser extent, Mexico. The Company cannot assure investors that the Company will succeed in developing and implementing policies and strategies to counter the foregoing factors effectively in each location where the Company does business and therefore that the foregoing factors will not have a material adverse effect on the Company'sCompany’s operations or upon the Company'sCompany’s financial condition and results of operations.
The Company could face increased competition as a result of the General Agreement on Tariffs andagreements under World Trade ("GATT"Organization (“WTO”) and the North American Free Trade Agreement ("NAFTA"(“NAFTA”).
The Company is uncertain what effect reduced import duties pursuant to agreements under GATTthe WTO may have on the Company'sCompany’s operations, although these reduced rates may stimulate additional competition from manufacturers that export ceramic tile to the United States.
Although NAFTA lowers the tariffs imposed on the Company'sCompany’s ceramic tile manufactured in Mexico and sold in the United States and will eliminate such tariffs entirely on January 1, 2008, it may also stimulate competition in the United States and Canada from manufacturers located in Mexico.
Fluctuations in currency exchange rates may impact the Company'sCompany’s financial condition and results of operations and may affect the comparability of results between the Company'sCompany’s financial periods.
The results of the Company'sCompany’s foreign subsidiaries reported in the local currency are translated into U.S. dollars for balance sheet accounts using exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date and for the statement of earnings accounts using the Company'sCompany’s weighted average rates during the period. The exchange rates between some of these currencies and the U.S. dollar in recent years have fluctuated significantly and may continue to do
so in the future. Although the Company has not yet experienced material losses due to foreign currency fluctuation, the Company may not be able to manage effectively the Company'sCompany’s currency translation risks, and volatility in currency exchange rates may have a material adverse effect on the carrying value of the Company'sCompany’s debt and results of operations and affect comparability of the Company'sCompany’s results between financial periods.
|
If the Company is unable to protect the Company'sCompany’s intellectual property rights, particularly with respect to the Company'sCompany’s patented laminate flooring technology and the Company'sCompany’s registered trademarks, the Company'sCompany’s business and prospects could be harmed.
The future success and competitive position of certain of the Company'sCompany’s businesses, particularly the Company'sCompany’s laminate flooring business, depend in part upon the Company'sCompany’s ability to obtain and maintain proprietary technology used in the Company'sCompany’s principal product families. The Company relies, in part, on the patent, trade secret and trademark laws of the United States and countries in Europe, as well as confidentiality agreements with some of the Company'sCompany’s employees, to protect that technology.
The Company has obtained a number of patents relating to the Company'sCompany’s products and associated methods and has filed applications for additional patents, including the UNICLIC® family of patents, which protects Unilin'sUnilin’s interlocking laminate flooring panel technology. The Company cannot assure investors that any patents owned by or issued to it will provide the Company with competitive advantages, that third parties will not challenge these patents, or that the Company'sCompany’s pending patent applications will be approved. In addition, patent filings by third parties, whether made before or after the date of the Company'sCompany’s filings, could render the Company'sCompany’s intellectual property less valuable.
Furthermore, despite the Company'sCompany’s efforts, the Company may be unable to prevent competitors and/or third parties from using the Company'sCompany’s technology without the Company'sCompany’s authorization, independently developing technology that is similar to that of the Company or designing around the Company'sCompany’s patents. The use of the Company'sCompany’s technology or similar technology by others could reduce or eliminate any competitive advantage the Company has developed, cause usthe Company to lose sales or otherwise harm the Company'sCompany’s business. In addition, if the Company does not obtain sufficient protection for the Company'sCompany’s intellectual property, the Company'sCompany’s competitiveness in the markets it serves could be significantly impaired, which would limit the Company'sCompany’s growth and future revenue.
The Company has obtained and applied for numerous U.S. and foreign service marks and trademark registrations and will continue to evaluate the registration of additional service marks and trademarks, as appropriate. The Company cannot guarantee that any of the Company'sCompany’s pending or future applications will be approved by the applicable governmental authorities. Moreover, even if such applications are approved, third parties may seek to oppose or otherwise challenge the registrations. A failure to obtain trademark registrations in the United States and in other countries could limit the Company'sCompany’s ability to protect the Company'sCompany’s trademarks and impede the Company'sCompany’s marketing efforts in those jurisdictions.
The Company requires third parties with access to the Company'sCompany’s trade secrets to agree to keep such information confidential. While such measures are intended to protect the Company'sCompany’s trade secrets, there can be no assurance that these agreements will not be breached, that the Company will have adequate remedies for any breach or that the Company'sCompany’s confidential and proprietary information and technology will not be independently developed by or become otherwise known to third parties. In any of these circumstances, the Company'sCompany’s competitiveness could be significantly impaired, which would limit the Company'sCompany’s growth and future revenue.
Companies may claim that the Company infringed their intellectual property or proprietary rights, which could cause it to incur significant expenses or prevent it from selling the Company'sCompany’s products.
TheIn the past the Company has in the past had companies claim that certain technologies incorporated in the Company'sCompany’s products infringe their patent rights. There can be no assurance that the Company will not receive notices in the
future from parties asserting that the Company'sCompany’s products infringe, or may infringe, those parties'parties’ intellectual property rights. The Company cannot be certain that the Company'sCompany’s products do not and will not infringe issued patents or other intellectual property rights of others. Historically, patent applications in the United States and some foreign countries have not been publicly disclosed until the patent is issued (or, in some recent cases, until 18 months following submission), and the Company may not be aware of currently filed patent applications that relate to the Company'sCompany’s products or processes. If patents are later issued on these applications, the Company may be liable for infringement.
|
Furthermore, the Company may initiate claims or litigation against parties for infringement of the Company'sCompany’s proprietary rights or to establish the invalidity, noninfringement, or unenforceability of the proprietary rights of others. Likewise, the Company may have similar claims brought against it by competitors. Litigation, either as plaintiff or defendant, could result in significant expense to the Company and divert the efforts of the Company'sCompany’s technical and management personnel from operations, whether or not such litigation is resolved in the Company'sCompany’s favor. In the event of an adverse ruling in any such litigation, the Company might be required to pay substantial damages (including punitive damages and attorneys fees), discontinue the use and sale of infringing products, expend significant resources to develop non-infringing technology or obtain licenses to infringing technology. There can be no assurance that licenses to disputed technology or intellectual property rights would be available on reasonable commercial terms, if at all. In the event of a successful claim against the Company along with failure to develop or license a substitute technology, the Company'sCompany’s business, financial condition and results of operations would be materially and adversely affected.
The Company is subject to changing regulation of corporate governance and public disclosure that have increased both costs and the risk of noncompliance.
The Company’s stock is publicly traded. As a result, the Company is subject to the rules and regulations of federal and state agencies and financial market exchange entities charged with the protection of investors and the oversight of companies whose securities are publicly traded. These entities, including the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board, the SEC and NYSE, have in recent years issued new requirements and regulations, most notably the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. From time to time since the adoption of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, these authorities have continued to develop additional regulations or interpretations of existing regulations. The Company’s efforts to comply with the regulations and interpretations have resulted in, and are likely to continue to result in, increased general and administrative costs and diversion of management’s time and attention from revenue generating activities to compliance activities.

Item 3. Legal Proceedings
The Company is involved in litigation from time to time in the regular course of its business. Except as noted below or under the section "-Environmental Matters," there are no material legal proceedings pending or known by the Company to be contemplated to which the Company is a party or to which any of its property is subject.

In Shirley Williams et al vs.al. v. Mohawk Industries, Inc., four plaintiffs filed a purportedputative class action lawsuit in January 2004 in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Georgia, alleging that they are former and current employees of the Company and that the actions and conduct of the Company, including the employment of persons who are not permittedauthorized to work in this country,the United States, have damaged them and the other members of the purportedputative class by suppressing the wages of the Company'sCompany’s hourly employees in Georgia. The plaintiffs seek a variety of relief, including (a) treble damages; (b) return of any allegedly unlawful profits; and (c) attorney'sattorney’s fees and costs of litigation. In February 2004, the Company filed a Motion to Dismiss the Complaint, which was denied by the Northern District Court in April 2004. The Company then sought and obtained permission to file an immediate appeal of the Northern District'sDistrict Court’s decision to the United States Court of Appeals for the 11thEleventh Circuit. In June 2005, the 11thEleventh Circuit reversed in part and affirmed in part the lower court'scourt’s decision (Williams v. Mohawk Industries, Inc., 411 F.3d 1252 (11th Cir. 2005)). In June 2005, the Company filed a motionpetition requesting review by the full 11thEleventh Circuit, which was denied in August 2005. In October 2005, the Company filed a petition for certiorari with the United States Supreme Court, which petition was granted in December of 2005. The case was argued before the Supreme Court on April 26, 2006. On June 5, 2006, the Supreme Court vacated the Eleventh Circuit’s ruling and ordered the Eleventh Circuit to reconsider the case in light of the Supreme Court’s decision in Anza v. Ideal Steel Supply Co., 126 S. Ct. 1991 (2006). On September 27, 2006, the Eleventh Circuit issued a second decision reversing in part and affirming in part the lower court’s decision. On October 18, 2006, the Company believes it has meritorious defenses and intendsfiled a petition requesting review of this decision by the full Eleventh Circuit, which was denied in November 2006. In December 2006, the Company filed a second petition for certiorari with the United States Supreme Court. The Company will continue to continue vigorously defendingdefend itself against this action.
The Company believes that adequate provisions have been made for all pending litigation for probable losses with respect to the resolution of all claims and pending litigation have been made for probable losses and that the ultimate outcome of these actions will not have a material adverse
effect on its financial condition but could have a material effect on its results of operations in a given quarter or annual period.
Environmental Matters
The Company is subject to various federal, state, local and foreign environmental health and safety laws and regulations, including those governing air emissions, wastewater discharges, the use, storage, treatment and disposal of solid and hazardous materials, and the cleanup of contamination associated therewith. Because of the nature of the Company'sCompany’s business, the Company has incurred, and will continue to incur, costs relating to compliance with such laws and regulations. The Company is involved in various proceedings relating to environmental matters and is currently engaged in environmental investigation, remediation and post-closure care programs at certain sites. The Company has provided accruals for such activities that it has determined to be both probable and reasonably estimable. The Company does not expect that the ultimate liability with respect to such activities will have a material adverse effect on its operations, but may have an effect on the results of operations for a given quarter or annual period.

Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Overview
The Company is a leading producer of floor covering products for residential and commercial applications in the United States and Europe with net sales in 20052006 in excess of $6.6$7.9 billion. The Company is the second largest carpet and rug manufacturer, and a leading manufacturer, marketer and distributor of ceramic tile and natural stone in the United States and a leading producer of laminate flooring in the United States and Europe.
The Company has three reporting segments, the Mohawk segment, the Dal-Tile segment and the Unilin segment. The Mohawk segment distributes its product lines, which include carpet, rug, pad,carpets, ceramic tile, laminate, hardwood, rugs, carpet pad, and resilient and laminateflooring, through its network of approximately 5250 regional distribution centers and satellite warehouses using its fleet of company-operated trucks, common carrier or rail transportation. The segment product lines are purchased by independent floor covering retailers, home centers, mass merchandisers, department stores, independent distributors, commercial dealers and commercial end users. The Dal-Tile segment product lines include ceramic tile, porcelain tile and stone products distributed through approximately 250262 company-operated sales service centers and regional distribution centers using primarily common carriers and rail transportation. The segment product lines are purchased by tile specialty dealers, tile contractors, floor covering retailers, commercial end users, independent distributors and home centers. The Unilin segment manufactures and markets laminate flooring products which are distributed through separate distribution channels consisting of retailers, contractors, commercial users, independent distributors and home centers. The business is organized to address the specific customer needs of each distribution channel.
The primary categories of the United States floor covering industry include carpet and rug (62%), ceramic tile (12%(13%), hardwood (10%(11%), resilient and rubber (9%(8%) and laminate (6%). Compound average growth rates for all categories, except the resilient and rubber category, for the period from 19992002 through 20042005 have met or exceeded the growth rates (measured in sales dollars) for the gross domestic product of the United States over the same period. Ceramic tile, laminate and hardwood continued to exceed the growth rate for housing starts over the same period. During this period, the compound average growth rate was 3.0%3.8% for carpetcarpets and rug, 7.0%rugs, 7.3% for ceramic tile, 0.6%6.6% for resilient and rubber, 17.4%21.1% for laminate and 9.4%8.0% for hardwood.
On October 31, 2005, the Company acquired all the outstanding shares of Unilin Holding NV. The total purchase price of the Unilin Acquisition, net of cash of $167.5 million, was approximately Euro 2.2 billion (approximately $2.6 billion). The results of operations for the Unilin segment have been included in the Company's consolidated financial statements since that date. The primary reason for the acquisition was to expand the Company's presence in the laminate flooring market.
On November 10, 2003, the Company acquired the assets and assumed certain liabilities of the commercial carpet division of Burlington Industries, Inc., known as Lees Carpet, from W.L. Ross & Company for approximately $350 million in cash. The results of operations for Lees Carpet have been included with the Mohawk segment results and in the Company's consolidated financial statements since that date. The primary reason for the acquisition was to expand the Company's presence in the commercial carpet market.
The Company reported net earnings of $358.2$455.8 million or diluted earnings per share ("EPS"(“EPS”) of $5.30,$6.70, compared to net earnings of $368.6$387.1 million and $5.46$5.72 EPS for 2004.2005. The decreaseincrease in EPS resulted from a non-recurring $34.3 million (net of tax of $22.3 million) fair value adjustment appliedis attributable to Unilin's acquired inventory, continuing raw material and energy cost increases, offset by salesthe Unilin Acquisition, strong hard surface growth, and better leveragingprice increases.
The Company believes that industry demand for the products manufactured by the Company has recently softened. The U.S. flooring industry continued slowing in the 4th quarter of selling, general2006, with both the residential new construction and administrativethe retail remodeling channels continuing their decline. The commercial channel continues to out perform the residential channel. Both of our Mohawk and Dal-Tile segments reflect these industry trends, although the Company believes both are well-positioned for industry improvement in the long-term.
Material costs when comparedfor the industry have remained high but could improve if commodity prices soften.
The Company anticipates continued slow U.S. industry sales in the first quarter of 2007 that will impact margins and earnings. The Company has reduced manufacturing, administration, and marketing expenses based on current industry conditions and will continue to the year ended December 31, 2004.adjust as required.

Year Ended December 31, 2006, as Compared with Year Ended December 31, 2005
Net sales for the year ended December 31, 2006, were $7,905.8 million, reflecting an increase of $1,285.7 million, or approximately 19.4%, over the $6,620.1 million reported for the year ended December 31, 2005. The increased net sales are primarily attributable to the acquisition of Unilin in October 2005 (which represented approximately 81% of the net sales growth), internal sales growth within hard surfaces and selling price increases. The Mohawk segment recorded net sales of $4,742.1 million in 2006 compared to $4,716.7 million in 2005, representing an increase of $25.4 million or approximately 0.5%. The increase was attributable to selling price increases and internal growth within the commercial soft surface category and hard surface product categories offset by declines in the new construction and residential replacement soft surface categories. The Dal-Tile segment recorded net sales of $1,941.8 million in 2006, reflecting an increase of $207.0 million or 11.9%, over the $1,734.8 million reported in 2005. The increase was attributable to internal growth in all product categories, acquisitions and selling price increases. The Unilin segment recorded net sales of $1,236.9 million for twelve months of 2006 compared to $168.8 million for two months of 2005.
Quarterly net sales and the percentage changes in net sales by quarter for 2006 versus 2005 were as follows (dollars in thousands)

Gross profit was $2,231.3 million (28.2% of net sales) for 2006 and $1,768.2 million (26.7% of net sales) for 2005. Gross profit as a percentage of net sales was favorably impacted by the Unilin Acquisition, selling price increases, internal growth and acquisitions within the Dal-Tile segment. The increase was offset by increased raw material, distribution and start up costs when compared to 2005. In addition, the 2005 gross margin was impacted
by a non-recurring $34.3 million ($22.3 million net of taxes) fair value adjustment applied to Unilin’s acquired inventory.
Selling, general and administrative expenses for 2006 were $1,392.3 million (17.6% of net sales) compared to $1,095.9 million (16.6% of net sales) for 2005. The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of net sales was primarily attributable to amortization of intangibles and the expensing of stock options, which was not required in 2005, during the current year when compared to 2005.
Operating income for 2006 was $839.1 million (10.6% of net sales) compared to $672.4 million (10.2% of net sales) in 2005. The increase in operating income for 2006 was favorably impacted by the Unilin Acquisition when compared to 2005. Operating income attributable to the Mohawk segment was $387.4 million (8.2% of segment net sales) in 2006 compared to $426.8 million (9.0% of segment net sales) in 2005. The percentage decrease in operating income resulted primarily from slower new construction and residential replacement demand within its soft surface product categories, an increase in raw material and energy costs, and increased selling and distribution costs, offset by selling price increases and internal growth within its commercial and hard surface product categories. Operating income attributable to the Dal-Tile segment was $270.9 million (14.0% of segment net sales) in 2006, compared to $260.2 million (15.0% of segment net sales) in 2005. The decrease in operating income as a percentage of net sales resulted primarily from higher distribution costs and start up costs at its Muskogee location offset by acquisitions and plant closing costs in the fourth quarter of 2006. Operating income attributable to the Unilin segment was $214.1 million (17.3% of segment net sales) for 2006 compared to a loss of $5.2 million for 2005.
The Company has received partial refunds from the United States government in reference to settling custom disputes dating back to 1982. Accordingly, the Company recorded a gain of $19.4 million ($12.3 million net of taxes) in other income (expense) for the twelve months ended December 31, 2006. Additional future recoveries will be recorded as realized.
Interest expense for 2006 was $173.7 million compared to $66.8 million in 2005. The increase in interest expense for 2006 as compared to 2005 was attributable to higher average debt levels as a result of the Unilin Acquisition. In addition, interest rates in 2006 were higher when compared to 2005.
Income tax expense was $220.5 million, or 32.6% of earnings before income taxes for 2006 compared to $215.0 million, or 35.7% of earnings before income taxes for 2005. The decrease in the tax rate is due to the combination of domestic and international tax rates resulting from the Unilin Acquisition when compared to 2005.
Year Ended December 31, 2005, as Compared with Year Ended December 31, 2004
Net sales for the year ended December 31, 2005, were $6,620.1 million, reflecting an increase of $739.7 million, or approximately 12.6%, over the $5,880.4 million reported for the year ended December 31, 2004. The increased net sales are primarily attributable to price increases, and internal sales growth and the Unilin Acquisition. The Mohawk segment recorded net sales of $4,716.7 million in 2005 compared to $4,368.8 million in 2004, representing an increase of $347.9 million or approximately 8.0%. The increase was attributable to price increases and internal growth within the nylon filament and polyester carpets, commercial carpet tile, and hard surface flooring offset by declines in nylon staple and polypropylene carpets and home products. The Dal-Tile segment recorded net sales of $1,734.8 million in 2005, reflecting an increase of $223.3 million or 14.8%, over the $1,511.5 million reported in the year ended December 31, 2004. The increase was mostly attributable to strong internal growth in all product categories with stone and floor tile reflecting the strongest growth.

Gross profit was $1,723.1$1,768.2 million (26.0%(26.7% of net sales) for 2005 and $1,620.8$1,624.2 million (27.6% of net sales) for 2004. The reduction in percentage was primarily attributable to increased raw material costs, energy costs, transportation costs, an increase in the LIFO reserve requirement, a non-recurring $34.3 million ($22.3 million net of taxes) fair value adjustment applied to Unilin'sUnilin’s acquired inventory, and higher import costs.
Selling, general and administrative expensesOperating income for 2005 were $1,095.9was $672.4 million (16.6%(10.2% of net sales) compared to $985.3$639.0 million (16.8% of net sales) for 2004. The reduction in percentage was attributable to better leveraging of selling, general and administrative expenses.
Operating income for 2005 was $627.3 million (9.5% of net sales) compared to $635.6 million (10.8%(10.9% of net sales) in 2004. Operating income attributable to the Mohawk segment was $381.7$426.8 million (8.1%(9.0% of segment net sales) in 2005 compared to $424.3$427.7 million (9.7%(9.8% of segment net sales) in 2004. The percentage decrease in operating income was attributable to the higher raw material costs, energy costs and transportation costs. Operating income attributable to the Dal-Tile segment was $260.2 million (15.0% of segment net sales) in 2005, compared to $219.8 million (14.5% of segment net sales) in 2004. The increase in operating income as a percentage of net sales is primarily attributable to product mix shift and implementing increased pricing to help offset increased raw material, energy, transportation, and higher import costs.
Interest expense for 2005 was $66.8 million compared to $53.4 million in 2004. The increase in interest expense was attributable to the debt raised to fund the Unilin Acquisition.
Income tax expense was $198.8$215.0 million, or 35.7% of earnings before income taxes for 2005 compared to $208.8$210.0 million, or 36.2% of earnings before income taxes for 2004. The improved rate was primarily attributable to the utilization of tax credits and the one-time effect of state tax law changes.
Year Ended December 31, 2004, as Compared with Year Ended December 31, 2003
Net sales for the year ended December 31, 2004, were $5,880.4 million, reflecting an increase of $881.0 million, or approximately 17.6%, over the $4,999.4 million reported for the year ended December 31, 2003. The increased net sales are primarily attributable to strong internal sales growth from both the Mohawk and Dal-Tile segments.

Gross profit was $1,620.8 million (27.6% of net sales) for 2004 and $1,393.8 million (27.9% of net sales) for 2003. The reduction in percentage was primarily attributable to increased raw material costs, energy costs, transportation costs and higher import costs.
Selling, general and administrative expenses for 2004 were $985.3 million (16.8% of net sales) compared to $851.8 million (17.0% of net sales) for 2003. The reduction in percentage was attributable to better leveraging of selling, general and administrative expenses.

The decrease in operating income as a percentage of net sales is primarily attributable to higher energy costs, import costs and transportation costs.
Interest expense for 2004 was $53.4 million compared to $55.6 million in 2003. The decrease in interest expense was attributable to a larger benefit from a fair value adjustment related to an interest rate swap during 2004 when compared to 2003.

Critical Accounting Policies
In preparing the consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, the Company must make decisions which impact the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosures. Such decisions include the selection of appropriate accounting principles to be applied and the assumptions on which to base accounting estimates. In reaching such decisions, the Company applies judgment based on its understanding and analysis of the relevant circumstances and historical experience. Actual amounts could differ from those estimated at the time the consolidated financial statements are prepared.
The Company's significant accounting policies are described in Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included elsewhere in this report. Some of those significant accounting policies require the Company to make subjective or complex judgments or estimates. Critical accounting policies are defined as those that are both most important to the portrayal of a company's financial condition and results and require management's most difficult, subjective, or complex judgment, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain and may change in subsequent periods.
The Company believes the following accounting policies require it to use judgments and estimates in preparing its consolidated financial statements and represent critical accounting policies.
Accounts receivable and revenue recognition. Revenues are recognized when there is persuasive evidence of an arrangement, delivery has occurred, the price has been fixed or is determinable, and collectibility can be reasonably assured. The Company provides allowances for expected cash discounts, returns, claims and doubtful accounts based upon historical bad debt and claims experience and periodic evaluation of specific customer accounts and the aging of accounts receivable. If the financial condition of the Company's customers were to deteriorate, resulting in an impairment of their ability to make payments, additional allowances may be required.
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market (net realizable value). Cost ishas been determined using the last-in, first-out method (LIFO) for approximately 86% (69% of total consolidated inventory) of the inventory within the Mohawk segment, which matches current costs with current revenues, and the first-in first-out method (FIFO), which(“FIFO”). Costs included in inventory include raw materials, direct and indirect labor and employee benefits, depreciation, general manufacturing overhead and various other costs of manufacturing. Market, with respect to all inventories, is used to value inventory within both the Dal-Tile and Unilin segments and inventory not valued under the LIFO method in the Mohawk segment.replacement cost or net realizable value. Inventories on hand are compared against anticipated future usage, which is a function of historical usage, and anticipated future selling price, expected sales below cost, excessive quantities and an evaluation for obsolescence. Actual results could differ from assumptions used to value obsolete inventory, excessive inventory or inventory expected to be sold below cost and additional reserves may be required.
Goodwill and indefinite life intangible assets are subject to annual impairment testing. The impairment tests are based on determining the fair value of the specified reporting units and indefinite life intangible assets based on management judgments and assumptions using estimated futurethe discounted cash flows.flows and market value approaches for the fair value determination of goodwill and indefinite life intangibles. These judgments and assumptions could materially change the value of the specified reporting units and indefinite life intangible assets and, therefore, could materially impact the Company's consolidated financial statements. Intangible assets with definite lives are amortized over their useful lives. The useful life of a definite-lived intangible asset is based on assumptions and judgments made by management at the time of acquisition. Changes in these judgments and assumptions that could include a loss of customers, a change in the assessment of future operations or a prolonged economic downturn could materially change the value of the definite-lived intangible assets and, therefore, could materially impact the Company's financial statements.

Environmental and legal accruals are estimates based on judgments made by the Company relating to ongoing environmental and legal proceedings, as disclosed in the Company's consolidated financial statements. In determining whether a liability is probable and reasonably estimable, the Company consults with its internal experts. The Company believes that the amounts recorded in the accompanying financial statements are based on the best estimates and judgments available to it.

Additionally, SFAS 151 requires that the allocation of fixed production overhead to the costs of conversion be based on the normal capacity of the production facilities. SFAS 151 is effective for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2005.

SFAS 123R requires all share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, to be recognized in the financial statements based on their fair values. Transition may be accomplished using either the prospective or retrospective method. The Company currently measures compensation costs related to share-based payments under APB Opinion No. 25. In April 2005, the Securities and Exchange Commission announced that the effective date of SFAS 123R should be no later than the beginning of the first fiscal year beginning after June 15, 2005.

FIN 48 also provides guidance on de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition. The provisions of FIN 48 are effective as of the beginning of the Company's 2007 fiscal year, with the cumulative effect of the change in accounting principle recorded as an adjustment to opening retained earnings. Based on its current evaluation, the Company does not believe the adoption of FIN 48 will have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.
In September 2006, FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157 (“SFAS No. 157”), “Fair Value Measurements.” SFAS No. 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and requires enhanced disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS No. 157 requires companies to disclose the fair value of its financial instruments according to a fair value hierarchy. Additionally, companies are required to provide certain disclosures regarding instruments within the hierarchy, including a reconciliation of the beginning and ending balances for each major category of assets and liabilities.

For the period from 1999 through 2005the beginning of 2004 the carpet and tile industry experienced moderate inflation in the prices of raw materials and fuel-related costs. In the past, the Company has generally been able to pass along these price increases to its customers and has been able to enhance productivity to help offset increases in costs resulting from inflation in its operations.
Seasonality
The Company is a calendar year-end company. With respect to its Mohawk and Dal-Tile segments, its results of operations for the first quarter tend to be the weakest. The second, third and fourth quarters typically produce higher net sales and operating income in these segments. These results are primarily due to consumer residential spending patterns for floor covering, which historically have decreased during the first two months of each year following the holiday season. The Unilin segment second and fourth quarters typically produce higher net sales and earnings followed by a moderate first quarter and a weaker third quarter. The third quarter is traditionally the weakest due to the European holiday in late summer,summer.

Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Financial exposures are managed as an integral part of the Company's risk management program, which seeks to reduce the potentially adverse effect that the volatility of the exchange raterates and natural gas markets may have on its operating results. The Company does not regularly engage in speculative transactions, nor does it regularly hold or issue financial instruments for trading purposes.
Natural Gas Risk Management
The Company uses a combination of natural gas futures contracts and long-term supply agreements to manage unanticipated changes in natural gas prices. The contracts are based on forecasted usage of natural gas measured in Million British Thermal Units ("MMBTU"(“MMBTU”).
The Company has designated the natural gas futures contracts as cash flow hedges. The outstanding contracts are valued at market with the offset applied to other comprehensive income, net of applicable income taxes and any hedge ineffectiveness.
Any gain or loss is reclassified from other comprehensive income and recognized in cost of goods sold in the same period or periods during which the hedged transaction affects earnings. At December 31, 2006, the Company had natural gas contracts that mature from January 2007 to October 2007 with an aggregate notional amount of approximately 1,400 MMBTU's. The fair value of these contracts was a liability of $2.4 million as of December 31, 2006. At December 31, 2005, the Company had natural gas contracts that maturematured from January 2006 to October 2006 with an aggregate notional amount of approximately 660,000660 thousand MMBTU's. The fair value of these contracts was an asset of $1.9 million. Atmillion as of December 31, 2004, the Company had natural gas contracts that matured from January 2005 to March 2005 with an aggregate notional amount of approximately 1 million MMBTU's. The fair value of these contracts was a liability of $1.3 million.2005. The offset to these assets is recorded in other comprehensive income, net of applicable income taxes. The ineffective portion of the
derivative is recognized directly in the cost of goods sold within the consolidated statements of earnings and was not significant for the periods reported. The amount that the Company anticipates will be reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income in the next twelve months is a gainloss of approximately $1.9 million.$2.4 million, net of taxes.
|
The Company's natural gas long-term supply agreements are accounted for under the normal purchases provision within SFAS No. 133 and its amendments. At December 31, 2006, the Company had normal purchase commitments of approximately 1,748 MMBTU's for periods maturing from January 2007 through March 2008. The contracted value of these commitments was approximately $15.4 million and the fair value of these commitments was approximately $12.1 million, at December 31, 2006. At December 31, 2005, the Company had normal purchase commitments of approximately 1.8 million1,867 MMBTU's for periods maturing from January 2006 through October 2006. The contracted value of these commitments was approximately $17.2 million and the fair value of these commitments was approximately $20.5 million, at December 31, 2005. At December 31, 2004, the Company had normal purchase commitments of approximately 1.9 million MMBTU's for periods maturing from January 2005 through March 2006. The contracted value of these commitments was approximately $9.9 million and the fair value of these commitments was approximately $11.9 million, at December 31, 2004.
Foreign Currency Rate Management
The Company enters into foreign exchange forward contracts to hedge foreign denominated costs associated with its operations in Mexico. The objective of these transactions is to reduce volatility of exchange rates where these operations are located by fixing a portion of their costs in U.S. currency. Accordingly, these contracts have been designated as cash flow hedges. Gains and losses are reclassified from other comprehensive income and recognized in cost of goods sold in the same period or periods during which the hedged transaction affects earnings. The company had no forward contracts outstanding at December 31, 2006. The Company had forward contracts to purchase approximately 8 million Mexican pesos at December 31, 2005. The aggregate U.S. dollar value of these contracts at December 31, 2005 was approximately $0.7 million. The contracts are marked to market in other current liabilities with the offset to other comprehensive income, net of applicable income taxes. Unrealized losses for the year ended December 31, 2005 were not significant. The Company had no forward contracts outstanding at December 31, 2004.
The Company also had forward exchange contracts to sell the British Pound and Canadian Dollar for a notional amount of $5.6 million at December 31, 2005. The contracts do not qualify for hedge accounting and are marked to market in other expenses at the end of each reporting period. The change in fair value is recorded in other expense and the contracts do not qualify for hedge accounting. The impact of the change in fair value on the statements of operations was not significant for the period ended December 31, 2005.

The Board of Directors and Stockholders
Mohawk Industries, Inc.:
We have audited management's assessment, included in the "Management's“Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting"Reporting” set forth in Item 9A of Mohawk Industries, Inc.'s’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 20052006,that Mohawk Industries, Inc. maintained effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2005,2006, based on criteria established in Internal Control-IntegratedControl—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO).Mohawk Industries, Inc.'s’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on management's assessment and an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company'sCompany’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, evaluating management's assessment, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control, and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
A company's internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company's internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company'scompany’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
In our opinion, management's assessment that Mohawk Industries, Inc. maintained effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2005,2006, is fairly stated, in all material respects, based on criteria established in Internal Control-IntegratedControl—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO).Also, in our opinion, Mohawk Industries, Inc. maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2005,2006, based on criteria established in Internal Control-IntegratedControl—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO).
As described in the Management's Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting, management excluded from its assessment of the effectiveness of Mohawk Industries, Inc.'s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2005, Unilin Flooring BVBA and Unilin Holding Inc. and their subsidiaries (Unilin Group), which businesses were acquired on October 31, 2005 and whose financial statements reflect total assets constituting approximately 14% (excluding goodwill and identified intangible assets of approximately 27%) and revenues of approximately 3% of the related consolidated financial statement amounts as of and for the year ended December 31, 2005. Accordingly, our audit of internal control over financial reporting of Mohawk Industries, Inc. also excluded an evaluation of the internal control over financial reporting of the Unilin Group.
We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated balance sheets of Mohawk Industries Inc., and subsidiaries as of December 31, 20052006 and 2004,2005, and the related consolidated statements of earnings, stockholders'stockholders’ equity and comprehensive income, and cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2005,2006, and our report dated March 15, 2006February 23, 2007 expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements.statements.

MOHAWK INDUSTRIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
Years Ended December 31, 2006, 2005 2004 and 2003
2004
(In thousands, except per share data)
(1) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
(a) Basis of Presentation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Mohawk Industries, Inc. and its subsidiaries (the "Company"“Company” or "Mohawk"“Mohawk”). All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
(b) Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents.
(c) Accounts Receivable and Revenue Recognition
The Company is principally a carpet, rugs, ceramic tile and laminate manufacturer and sells carpet, rugs, ceramic tile, natural stone, hardwood, resilient and laminate flooring products in the United States. In addition, the Company manufactures laminate and sells carpet, rugs and laminate flooring products in Europe principally for residential and commercial use. The Company grants credit to customers, most of whom are retail-flooring dealers and commercial end users, under credit terms that the Company believes are customary in the industry.
The Company warrants certain qualitative attributes of its flooring products. The Company has recorded a provision for estimated warranty and related costs, based on historical experience and periodically adjusts these provisions to reflect actual experience.
Revenues are recognized when there is persuasive evidence of an arrangement, delivery has occurred, the price has been fixed or is determinable, and collectibility can be reasonably assured. The Company provides allowances for expected cash discounts, returns, claims and doubtful accounts based upon historical bad debt and claims experience and periodic evaluations of specific customer accounts. Royalty revenues received from third parties for patents are recognized based on contractual agreements. The amount
(d) Inventories
Effective April 2, 2006, the Company changed the method of patent revenueaccounting for all inventories not previously accounted for on the year ended December 31, 2005 was $10,461 and is recorded in net sales.
(d) Inventories
first-in, first-out (“FIFO”) method from the last-in, first-out (“LIFO”) method to the FIFO method. Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market (net realizable value). Cost ishas been determined using the last-in, first-out method (LIFO) for approximately 86% (69%FIFO. Costs included in inventory include raw materials, direct and indirect labor and employee benefits, depreciation, general manufacturing overhead and various other costs of total inventory) of the inventory within the Mohawk segment, which matches current costsmanufacturing. Market, with current revenues, and the first-in, first-out method (FIFO), whichrespect to all inventories, is used to value inventory within the Dal-Tile and Unilin segments and inventory not valued under the LIFO method in the Mohawk segment.replacement cost or net realizable value. Inventories on hand are compared against anticipated future usage, which is a function of historical usage, anticipated future selling price, expected sales below cost, excessive quantities and an evaluation for obsolescence. Actual results could differ from assumptions used to value obsolete inventory, excessive inventory or inventory expected to be sold below cost and additional reserves may be required. See Note 4 for further discussion.
MOHAWK INDUSTRIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements Statements—(Continued)
(e) Property, Plant and Equipment
Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost, including capitalized interest. Depreciation is calculated on a straight-line basis over the estimated remaining useful lives, which are 25-35 years for buildings and improvements, 5-15 years for machinery and equipment, the shorter of the estimated useful life or lease term for leasehold improvements and 3-7 years for furniture and fixtures.
(f) Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets
In accordance with the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS"(“SFAS”) No. 142, "Goodwill“Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets"Assets,” the Company tests goodwill and other intangible assets with indefinite lives for impairment on an annual basis (or on an interim basis if an event occurs that might reduce the fair value of the reporting unit below its carrying value). The Company conducts testing for impairment during the fourth quarter of its fiscal year. Intangible assets that do not have indefinite lives are amortized based on average lives, which range from 7-16 years.
(g) Income Taxes
Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carry-forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.
(h) Financial Instruments
The Company's financial instruments consist primarily of receivables, accounts payable, accrued expenses and long-term debt. The carrying amount of receivables, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximates its fair value because of the short-term maturity of such instruments. The carrying amount of the Company's floating rate debt approximates its fair value. Interest rates that are currently available to the Company for issuance of long-term debt with similar terms and remaining maturities are used to estimate the fair value of the Company's long-term debt. The estimated fair value of the Company's long-term debt at December 31, 2006 and 2005 was $2,796,668 and 2004 was $3,282,715, and $961,120, compared to a carrying amount of $3,308,370$2,783,681 and $891,341,$3,308,370, respectively.
(i) Derivative Instruments
Accounting for Derivative Instrumentsderivative instruments and Hedging Activitieshedging activities requires the Company to recognize all derivatives on the consolidated balance sheet at fair value. Derivatives that are not qualifying hedges must be adjusted to fair value through earnings. If the derivative is a qualifying hedge, depending on the nature of the hedge, changes in its fair value are either offset against the change in fair value of assets, liabilities, or firm commitments through earnings or recognized in other comprehensive income until the hedged item is recognized in earnings. The Company engages in activities that expose it to market risks, including the effects of changes in interest rates, exchange rates and natural gas commodity prices. Financial exposures are managed as an integral part of the Company's risk management program, which seeks to reduce the potentially adverse effect that the volatility of the interest rate, exchange rate and natural gas commodity markets may have on operating results. The Company does not engage in speculative transactions, nor does it hold or issue financial instruments for trading purposes.
MOHAWK INDUSTRIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements Statements—(Continued)
The Company formally documents hedging instruments and hedging items, as well as its risk management objective and strategy for undertaking hedged items. This process includes linking all derivatives that are designated as fair value and cash flow hedges to specific assets, liabilities or firm commitments on the consolidated balance sheet or to forecasted transactions. The Company also formally assesses, both at inception and on an ongoing basis, whether the derivatives that are used in hedging transactions are highly effective in offsetting changes in fair value or cash flows of hedged items. When it is determined that a derivative is not highly effective, the derivative expires, or is sold, terminated, or exercised, or the derivative is discontinued because it is unlikely that a forecasted transaction will occur, the Company discontinues hedge accounting prospectively for that specific hedge instrument.
(j)(j) Advertising Costs and Vendor Consideration
Advertising and promotion expenses are charged to earnings during the period in which they are incurred. Advertising and promotion expenses included in selling, administrative, and general expenses were $55,254 in 2006, $41,339 in 2005 and $31,474 in 2004 and $26,990 in 2003.2004.
Vendor consideration, generally cash, is classified as a reduction of net sales, unless specific criteria are met regarding goods or services that the vendor may receive in return for this consideration. The Company makes various payments to customers, including slotting fees, advertising allowances, buy-downs and co-op advertising. All of these payments reduce gross sales with the exception of co-op advertising. Co-op advertising is classified as a selling, general and administrative expense in accordance with EITF 01-09. Co-op advertising expenses, a component of advertising and promotion expenses, were $13,352 in 2006, $14,408 in 2005 and $10,389 in 2004 and $9,355 in 2003.2004.
(k) Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
Long-lived assets and intangibles subject to amortization are reviewed for impairment when changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the asset may not be recoverable. If the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the expected undiscounted cash flows of the asset, an impairment charge is recognized equal to the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the expected undiscounted cash flows. Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value less estimated costs of disposal and are no longer depreciated.
(l) Foreign Currency Translation
The Company's subsidiaries that operate outside the United States use their local currency as the functional currency, with the exception of operations carried out in Canada and Mexico, in which case the functional currency is the U.S. dollar. Other than Canada and Mexico, the functional currency is translated into U.S. dollars for balance sheet accounts using the month end rates in effect as of the balance sheet date and average exchange rate for revenue and expense accounts for each respective period. The translation adjustments are deferred as a separate component of stockholders' equity, within other comprehensive income, net of tax where applicable.income. Gains or losses resulting from transactions denominated in foreign currencies are included in other income or expense, within the consolidated statements of earnings. The assets and liabilities of the Company's Canada and Mexico operations are re-measured using a month end rate, except for non-monetary assets and liabilities, which are re-measured using the historical exchange rate. Income and expense accounts are re-measured using an average monthly rate for the period, except for expenses related to those balance sheet accounts that are re-measured using historical exchange rates. The resulting re-measurement adjustment is reported in the consolidated statements of operationsearnings when incurred.

(m) Earnings per Share ("EPS"(“EPS”)
Basic net earnings per share ("EPS"(“EPS”) is calculated using net earnings available to common stockholders divided by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the year. Diluted EPS is similar to basic EPS except that the weighted-average number of shares is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the potentially dilutive common shares had been issued.
Dilutive common stock options are included in the diluted EPS calculation using the treasury stock method. Common stock options that were not included in the diluted EPS computation because the options' exercise price was greater than the average market price of the common shares for the periods presented were 1,271, 351, and 21 for 2006, 2005 and 605 for 2005, 2004, and 2003, respectively.
Computations of basic and diluted earnings per share are presented in the following table:

Accordingly, no stock-based employee compensation cost related to stock options was recognized in the Consolidated Statement of Earnings as all options granted under the plans had an exercise price equal to the market value of the underlying common stock on the date of grant.

(p) Effect of New Accounting Pronouncements
In December 2004, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position 109-1, "Application of FASB Statement No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes" ("SFAS No. 109") to the Tax Deduction on Qualified Production Activities Provided by the American Jobs Creation Act of 2004" ("FSP 109-1"). The American Jobs Creation Act of 2004 (the "Jobs Act"), enacted October 22, 2004, provides a tax deduction for income from qualified domestic production activities. FSP 109-1 provides the treatment for the deduction as a special deduction as described in SFAS No. 109. FSP 109-1 is effective prospectively as of January 1, 2005. The adoption of FSP 109-1 did not have a significant impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.
In December 2004, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position 109-2, "Accounting and Disclosure Guidance for the Foreign Earnings Repatriation Provision within the American Jobs Creation Act of 2004" ("FSP 109-2"), which provides guidance under SFAS No. 109 with respect to recording the potential impact of the repatriation provisions of the Jobs Act on enterprises' income tax expense and deferred tax liability. FSP 109-2 states that an enterprise is allowed time beyond the financial reporting period of enactment to evaluate the effect of the Jobs Act on its plan for reinvestment or repatriation of foreign earnings for purposes of applying FASB Statement No. 109. The Company did not elect to repatriate any foreign earnings during 2005 and accordingly, the adoption of FSP 109-2 did not have a significant impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.
In November 2004, the FASBFinancial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued SFAS No. 151, "Inventory“Inventory Costs-An Amendment of ARB No. 43, Chapter 4" ("4” (“SFAS 151"151”). SFAS 151 amends the guidance in ARB No. 43, Chapter 4, "Inventory“Inventory Pricing,"” to clarify the accounting for abnormal amounts of idle facility expense, freight, handling costs and wasted material (spoilage). Among other provisions, the new rule requires that items such as idle facility expense, excessive spoilage, double freight, and re-handling costs be recognized as current-period charges regardless of whether they meet the criterion of "so abnormal"“so abnormal” as stated in ARB No. 43. Additionally, SFAS 151 requires that the allocation of fixed production overhead to the costs of conversion be based on the normal capacity of the production facilities. SFAS 151 is effective for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2005. The Company will adopt SFAS 151 effectiveEffective January 1, 2006, and does not expect its adoption will have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.
In March 2005, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. 47, "Accounting for Conditional Asset Retirement Obligations, an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 143" ("FIN 47"), which requires an entity to recognize a liability for the fair value of a conditional asset retirement obligation when incurred if the liability's fair value can be reasonably estimated. FIN 47 is effective no later than the end of fiscal years ending after December 15, 2005. Effective December 31, 2005, the Company adopted FIN 47SFAS 151 which did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

In May 2005,July 2006, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. 48 (FIN 48), “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes—an Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109,” which clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes.FIN 48 prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement criteria for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. FIN 48 also provides guidance on de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition. The provisions of FIN 48 are effective as of the beginning of the Company's 2007 fiscal year, with the cumulative effect of the change in accounting principle recorded as an adjustment to opening retained earnings. Based on its current evaluation, the Company does not believe the adoption of FIN 48 will have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.
In September 2006, FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 154, "Accounting Changes157 (“SFAS No. 157”), “Fair Value Measurements.” SFAS No. 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and Error Corrections-a replacementrequires enhanced disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS No. 157 requires companies to disclose the fair value of APB Opinion No. 20 and FASB Statement No. 3" ("SFAS 154"). This Statement replaces APB Opinion No. 20, "Accounting Changes," and FASB Statement No. 3, "Reporting Accounting Changes in Interim Financial Statements." SFAS 154 requires retrospective applicationits financial instruments according to prior periods' financial statements for changes in accounting principle, unless it is impracticablea fair value hierarchy. Additionally, companies are required to determine eitherprovide certain disclosures regarding instruments within the period-specific effects or the cumulative effecthierarchy, including a reconciliation of the change.beginning and ending balances for each major category of assets and liabilities. SFAS 154 also requires that a change in depreciation, amortization, or depletion method for long-lived, non-financial assets be accounted for as a change in accounting estimate effected by a change in accounting principle. SFAS 154157 is effective for accounting changesthe Company’s fiscal year beginning January 1, 2008. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of SFAS No. 157 on its consolidated financial statements.
In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 158, “Employers’ Accounting for Defined Benefit Pension and correctionsOther Post Retirement Plans- an amendment of errors madeFASB Statements No. 87, 88, 106 and 132(R)” (“SFAS No. 158”). SFAS No. 158 requires an employer that sponsors one or more single-employer defined benefit plans to recognize the over-funded or under-funded status of a benefit plan in its statement of financial position, recognize as a component of other comprehensive income, net of tax, gains or losses and prior service costs or credits that arise during the period but are not recognized as components of net periodic benefit costs pursuant to SFAS No. 87, “Employers Accounting for Pensions,” or SFAS No. 106, “Employers’ Accounting for Postretirement Benefits Other Than Pensions,” to measure defined benefit plan assets and obligations as of the date of the employer’s fiscal year-end, and disclose in the notes to financial statements additional information about certain effects on net periodic benefit cost for the next fiscal year that arise from delayed recognition of the gains or losses, prior service costs or credits, and transition assets or obligations. The recognition and disclosure provisions required by SFAS No. 158 are effective for the Company’s fiscal year ending December 31, 2006. The measurement date provisions are effective for fiscal years beginningending after December 15, 2005. The impact of this standard, if any, will depend upon accounting changes or errors that may occur in future periods.2008. The Company adopted SFAS 154 effectiveNo. 158 for its fiscal year ended December 31, 2005.2006 which resulted in the Company recording $818 in accumulated other comprehensive income for amounts that had not been previously recorded in net periodic benefit cost.
In September 2006, the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 108, “Considering the Effects of Prior Year Misstatements when Quantifying Misstatements in Current Year Financial Statements” (“SAB 108”). SAB 108 provides interpretive guidance on how the effects of the carryover or reversal of prior year misstatements should be considered in quantifying a current year misstatement. The SEC staff believes that registrants should quantify errors using both the balance sheet and income statement approach when quantifying a misstatement. SAB 108 is effective for the Company’s fiscal year ending December 31, 2006. Effective December 31, 2006, the Company adopted SAB 108 which did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements

Effective April 2, 2006, the Company changed the method of accounting for all inventories not previously accounted for on the first-in, first-out (“FIFO”) method from the last-in, first-out (“LIFO”) method to the Unilin Acquisition whichFIFO method. The Company believes the FIFO method of accounting for inventory costs is preferable because it provides a better measure of the current value of its inventory and provides a better matching of manufacturing costs with revenues. The change resulted in the application of a single costing method to all of the Company's inventories. As a result, all inventories are stated at the lower of cost, determined on a FIFO basis, or market. In accordance with FASB No. 154, “Accounting Changes and Error Corrections,” the Company has retrospectively applied this change in method of inventory costing. The impact of the change in method on certain financial statement line items is as follows:

Natural Gas Risk Management
The Company uses a combination of natural gas futures contracts and long-term supply agreements to manage unanticipated changes in natural gas prices. The contracts are based on forecasted usage of natural gas measured in Million British Thermal Units ("MMBTU"(“MMBTU”).
The Company has designated the natural gas futures contracts as cash flow hedges. The outstanding contracts are valued at market with the offset applied to other comprehensive income, net of applicable income taxes and any hedge ineffectiveness.

Expected volatility is based on the historical volatility of the Company's common stock and other factors. The Company uses historical data to estimate option exercise and forfeiture rates within the valuation model. Optionees that exhibit similar option exercise behavior are segregated into separate groups within the valuation model. The expected term of options granted represents the period of time that options granted are expected to be outstanding. The risk-free rate is based on U.S. Treasury yields in effect at the time of the grant for the expected term of the award.

Management believes it is more likely than not the Company will realize the benefits of these deductible differences, with the exception of certain carryforward deferred tax assets which are in other assets and $5,111 current deferred tax liabilities which are included in other accrued expenses in the consolidated balance sheet.
Baseddiscussed below, based upon the expected reversal of deferred tax liabilities and the level of historical and projected taxable income over periods in which the deferred tax assets are deductible,deductible.
As of December 31, 2006, the Company's management believesCompany had state net operating loss carryforwards and state tax credits with potential tax benefits of approximately $45,163, net of federal income tax benefit; these carryforwards expire over various periods based on jurisdiction. Because the Company generates more state tax credits on an annual basis in certain jurisdictions than the related state taxable income, it is the Company’s opinion that it is more likely than not that the benefit of the deferred tax assets related to state tax credits and certain state net operating losses will not be realized. Accordingly, a valuation allowance of approximately $44,324 has been recorded for the year ended December 31, 2006. Of this balance, approximately $4,000 of the future tax benefit, if realized, from the reversal of the valuation allowance would be allocable as a reduction of goodwill. In addition, the Company has tax credit and net operating loss carryforwards in various foreign jurisdictions of approximately $36,426 as of December 31, 2006. The credit carryforwards begin to expire in 2011; the net operating loss carryforwards have an indefinite life. Based on historical and future income projections, it is the Company’s opinion that it is more likely than not that the benefit of net operating loss carryforwards in certain foreign jurisdictions will realizenot be realized; therefore, a valuation allowance totaling $24,449 as of December 31, 2006 has been recorded against these deferred tax assets. The valuation allowance of $32,180 consists principally of state net operating losses as of December 31, 2005. For 2006, the benefitstotal change in the valuation allowance was an increase of these deductible differences.$36,593. An increase of $28,608 was primarily as a result of a generating additional net operating losses and credit carryforwards in the current period in foreign and state jurisdictions for which no benefit is expected to be realized. The remaining difference of $7,985 is an adjustment to reflect additional net operating loss carryforwards and credits reported in the 2005 tax returns as filed.

The Company does not provide for U.S. federal and state income taxes on the cumulative undistributed earnings of its foreign subsidiaries because such earnings are reinvested and will continue to be reinvested indefinitely. At December 31, 20052006 and 2004,2005, the Company had not provided federal income taxes on earnings of approximately $56,763$257,000 and $48,172$56,763 from its foreign subsidiaries. Should these earnings be distributed in the form of dividends or otherwise, the Company would be subject to both U.S. income taxes and withholding taxes in various international jurisdictions. These taxes would be partially offset by U.S. foreign tax credits.

The American Jobs Act of 2004 ("The Jobs Act") was enacted on October 22, 2004. The new law made numerous and substantive changes in the taxation of foreign and domestic-sourced income, including provisions for a lower tax rate on repatriated foreign earnings. The Company has completed its analysis Determination of the relevant provisionsamount of The Jobs Act and has determined that thereunrecognized deferred U.S. tax liability is no impact onnot practical because of the Company's consolidated financial statements.complexities associated with this hypothetical calculation.
As of December 31, 2005 and 2004, the Company had state net operating loss carryforwards, state tax credits and Mexican asset tax credits with potential tax benefits of approximately $44,600 and $40,600, respectively, net of federal income tax benefit. Because the Company generates more state tax credits on an annual basis in certain jurisdications than the related state taxable income, it is the Company's opinion that it is more likely than not that the benefit of these deferred tax assets related to state tax credits and certain state net operating losses will not be realized. Accordingly, a valuation allowance of approximately $32,180 and $33,531 has been recorded for the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively. For 2005, the valuation allowance decreased by $1,351 primarily as a result of a Mexican tax credit benefit recognized in the current year, net of an increase in the state valuation allowance in various state jurisdictions. The Company has determined that these credits and losses may not be utilized before they expire.
In the normal course of business, the Company'sCompany’s tax returns are subject to examination by various taxing authorities. Such examinations may result in future tax and interest assessments by these taxing authorities and the Company has accrued a liability when it believes it is probable that it will be assessed. Differences between the estimated and actual amounts determined upon ultimate resolution, individually or in the aggregate, are not expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company'sCompany’s consolidated financial position but could possibly be material to the Company'sCompany’s consolidated results of operations or cash flow in a given quarter or annual period. The Company reversed pre acquisition tax liabilities of any one period.$25,526 with a corresponding reduction to goodwill for the year ended December 31, 2006.

The Company is involved in routine litigation from time to time in the regular course of its business. Except as noted below, there are no material legal proceedings pending or known to be contemplated to which the Company is a party or to which any of its property is subject.
In Shirley Williams et al vs.al. v. Mohawk Industries, IncInc., four plaintiffs filed a purportedputative class action lawsuit in January 2004 in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Georgia, alleging that they are

former and current employees of the Company and that the actions and conduct of the Company, including the employment of persons who are not permittedauthorized to work in this country,the United States, have damaged them and the other members of the purportedputative class by suppressing the wages of ourthe Company’s hourly employees in Georgia. The plaintiffs seek a variety of relief, including (a) treble damages; (b) return of any allegedly unlawful profits; and (c) attorney'sattorney’s fees and costs of litigation. In February 2004, the Company filed a Motion to Dismiss the Complaint, which was denied by the Northern District Court in April 2004. The Company then sought and obtained permission to file an immediate appeal of the Northern District'sDistrict Court’s decision to the United States Court of Appeals for the 11thEleventh Circuit. In June 2005, the 11thEleventh Circuit reversed in part and affirmed in part the lower court'scourt’s decision (Williams v. Mohawk Industries, Inc., 411 F.3d 1252 (11th Cir. 2005)). In June 2005, the Company filed a motionpetition requesting review by the full 11thEleventh Circuit, which was denied in August 2005. In October 2005, the Company filed a petition for certiorari with the United States Supreme Court, which petition was granted in December of 2005. The case was argued before the Supreme Court on April 26, 2006. On June 5, 2006, the Supreme Court vacated the Eleventh Circuit’s ruling and ordered the Eleventh Circuit to reconsider the case in light of the Supreme Court’s decision in Anza v. Ideal Steel Supply Co., 126 S. Ct. 1991 (2006). On September 27, 2006, the Eleventh Circuit issued a second decision reversing in part and affirming in part the lower court’s decision. On October 18, 2006, the Company believes it has meritorious defenses and intendsfiled a petition requesting review of this decision by the full Eleventh Circuit, which was denied in November 2006. In December 2006, the Company filed a second petition for certiorari with the United States Supreme Court. The Company will continue to continue vigorously defendingdefend itself against this action.
The Company believes that adequate provisions have been made for all pending litigation for probable losses with respect to the resolution of all claims and pending litigation have been made for probable losses and that the ultimate outcome of these actions will not have a material adverse effect on its financial condition but could have a material effect on its results of operations in a given quarter or year.annual period.
The Company has received partial refunds from the United States government in reference to settling custom disputes dating back to 1982. Accordingly, the Company recorded a net gain of $19,436 ($12,288 net of taxes) in other income (expense) for the twelve months ended December 31, 2006. Additional future recoveries will be recorded as realized.
The Company is subject to various federal, state, local and foreign environmental health and safety laws and regulations, including those governing air emissions, wastewater discharges, the use, storage, treatment and disposal of solid and hazardous materials, and the cleanup of contamination associated therewith. Because of the nature of the Company'sCompany’s business, the Company has incurred, and will continue to incur, costs relating to compliance with such laws and regulations. The Company is involved in various proceedings relating to environmental matters and is currently engaged in environmental investigation, remediation and post-closure care programs at certain sites. The Company has provided accruals for such activities that it has determined to be both probable and reasonably estimable. The Company does not expect that the ultimate liability with respect to such activities will have a material adverse effect on its operations, but may have an effect on a given quarter or annual period.
On October 31, 2005, the Company entered into a Discounted Stock Purchase Agreement (the "DSPA") with certain members of the Unilin management team (the "Unilin Management"). Under the terms of the DSPA the Company will be obligated to make cash payments to the Unilin Management in the event that certain performance goals are satisfied. In each of the years in the five-year period ended December 31, 2010, the Unilin Management can earn amounts, in the aggregate, equal to the average value of 35,133 shares of the Company's common stock over the 20 trading day period ending on December 31 of the prior year. Any failure in a given year to reach the performance goals may be rectified, and consequently the amounts payable with respect to achieving such criteria may be made, in any of the other years.

Item 9A. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Based on an evaluation of the effectiveness of the Company'sCompany’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) as of the end of the period covered by this report, the Company'sCompany’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that such controls and procedures were effective for the period covered by this report.
Management'sManagement’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
The Company'sCompany’s management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended). The Company'sCompany’s management assessed the effectiveness of its internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2005.2006. In making this assessment, the Company'sCompany’s management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission ("COSO"(“COSO”) in Internal Control-Integrated Framework. The Company has excluded from the scope of its assessment of internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2005, Unilin Flooring BVBA, Unilin Holding Inc., and their subsidiaries (the Unilin Group), which businesses were acquired on October 31, 2005 and whose financial statements reflect total assets constituting approximately 14% (excluding goodwill and identified intangible assets of approximately 27%) and revenues of approximately 3% of the company's related consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2005. The Company'sCompany’s management has concluded that, as of December 31, 2005,2006, its internal control over financial reporting is effective based on these criteria. The Company'sCompany’s independent registered public accounting firm, KPMG LLP, has issued an attestation report on management'smanagement’s assessment of the Company'sCompany’s internal control over financial reporting, which is included herein.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
Except for the implementation of a financial consolidation system designed to facilitate the production of consolidated financial statements, including the recently acquired Unilin operations, thereThere were no changes in ourthe Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the period covered by this report that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company'sCompany’s internal control over financial reporting.
Limitations on the Effectiveness of Controls
The Company'sCompany’s management, including itsour Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, does not expect that the Company'sCompany’s disclosure controls and procedures or the Company'sCompany’s internal control over financial reporting will prevent all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected.
