7. Property, PlantCommitments and Equipment
Effective January 1,contingencies
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 December 1995, the Company and four other carpet manufacturers were
added as defendants in a purported class action lawsuit, In re Carpet Antitrust
Litigation, pending in the United States District Court for the Northern
District of Georgia, Rome Division. The amended complaint alleges price-fixing
regarding polypropylene products in violation of Section One of the Sherman Act.
In September 1997, the Court granted the plaintiffs' motion to certify the
class. In October 1998, two plaintiffs, on behalf of an alleged class of
purchasers of nylon carpet products, filed a complaint in the United States
District Court for the Northern District of Georgia against the Company and two
of its subsidiaries, as well as certain competitors. The complaint alleges that
the Company acted in concert with other carpet manufacturers to restrain
competition in the sale of certain nylon carpet products. The Company filed an
answer, denied the allegations in the complaint and set forth its defenses.
On August 11, 2000, the Company changedpresented to the estimated useful
livesCourt the terms of buildings (25 years to 35 years), tufting equipment (7 years to 10
years), extrusion equipment (7 years to 15 years) and furniture and fixtures (5
years to 7 years). Management believes the change more accurately reflects the
actual lives of these assets and is more consistent with industry practice. The
prospective change is estimated to reduce annual depreciation expense by
approximately $20,000 in 2000.
8. Nonrecurring costs
In the third quarter of 2000, the Company reached an
agreement in principle to settle these two antitrust class actions. Thecases. On February 5, 2001, the Court
dismissed all claims against the Company will contribute
$13,500and granted final approval to the
settlement. Under the terms of the settlement agreement, the Company contributed
$13.5 million at the beginning of the second quarter of 2001 to a settlement
fund to resolve price fixing claims. The settlement is
subject to preliminary approvalprice-fixing claims brought by a class of the court, notice to memberspurchasers of
the
settlement classes, certification of thepolypropylene carpet and a proposed settlement classes and final
approval by the court. During the quarter, theclass of purchasers of nylon
carpet. The Company recorded a charge of $7,000$7 million in the third quarter of
2000, in connection with the settlement. The after tax effect of the charge for
the three and nine months ended September 30, 2000, was $4,271, or $0.08 per
share.
9. Subsequent events
In October 2000, the Company entered into a one-year receivables
purchase agreement enabling the Company to sell up to $250,000 of an undivided
interest in a defined pool of trade accounts receivable and the securitization
agreement may be extended for one-year terms.lawsuit. The Company received approximately
$195,000denies all liability and
wrongdoing and has agreed to settle these claims in proceeds fromorder to avoid the initial salecosts of

used to reduce borrowings under the revolving credit facility and will be
accounted for as a short-term financing.further litigation.

The Company is generallya party to two consolidated lawsuits captioned Gaehwiler v.
Sunrise Carpet Industries, Inc. et al. and Patco Enterprises, Inc. v. Sunrise
Carpet Industries, Inc. et al., both of which were filed in the Superior Court
of the State of California, City and County of San Francisco, in 1996. Both
complaints were brought on behalf of a purported class of indirect purchasers of
polypropylene carpet in the State of California and seek damages for alleged
violations of California antitrust and unfair competition laws. In February
1999, a similar complaint was filed in the Superior Court of the State of
California, City and County of San Francisco, on behalf of a purported class
based on indirect purchasers of nylon carpet in the State of California and
alleges violations of California antitrust and unfair competition laws. The
complaints described above do not specify any specific amount of damages but do
request injunctive relief and treble damages plus reimbursement for fees and
costs. The Company believes it has meritorious defenses and intends to
vigorously defend against these actions.
8. Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In July 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 141,
Business Combinations, and SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets.
SFAS No. 141 requires that the purchase method of accounting be used for all
business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001. SFAS No. 142 will require
that goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite useful lives no longer be
amortized, but instead tested for impairment at risk for
losses associatedleast annually in accordance
with the sold receivablesprovisions of SFAS No. 142.
The Company is required to adopt the provisions of SFAS No. 141
immediately, and SFAS No. 142 effective January 1, 2002. Furthermore, any
goodwill determined to have an indefinite useful life that was acquired in a
purchase business combination completed after June 30, 2001 will providenot be
amortized. Goodwill acquired in business combinations completed before July 1,
2001 will discontinue being amortized after December 31, 2001.
The Company is currently evaluating its existing goodwill that was acquired

9As of the date of adoption, the Company expects to have unamortized
goodwill in the amount of $109,161. Amortization expense related to goodwill was
$3,184 and $1,605 for the year ended December 31, 2000 and the six months ended
June 30, 2001, respectively.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations
Effective January 1, 2000, the Company changed the estimated useful lives
of certain property, plant and equipment. Management believes this change more
accurately reflects the actual lives of these assets and is more consistent with
industry practice. The prospective change is estimated to reduce annual
depreciation expense by approximately $20 million in 2000.
Effective November 1, 2000, the Company entered into an agreement with
Congoleum Corporation, Inc. to become a national distributor of their vinyl
products. This will give the Company a complete line of soft and hard floor
covering products to supply to customers throughout the United States. In
conjunction with this program and the other hard surface floor coverings, the
Company anticipates significant start up costs with the rolling out of these
product lines into all sales regions during the remainder of 2000 and 2001. The
Company anticipates that the growth in sales will lag the increase in costs
during the start up period.
On October 10, 2000, the Company signed a definitive agreement with Crown
Crafts, Inc. to acquire certain assets of its Woven Division. Under the
agreement, the Company will pay approximately $40 million in cash for
substantially all of the fixed assets and inventory of the division. The
acquisition is expected to close by the end of the fourth quarter of 2000.
In 1999, Staff Accounting Bulletin 101 ("SAB 101") "Revenue Recognition"
was issued requiring that revenue be recognized when certain criteria are met.
In conjunction, the Emerging Issues Task Force ("EITF") reached a consensus on
issue EITF 00-10 in September 2000, "Accounting for Shipping and Handling Fees
and Costs". The Company is currently analyzing the implications of both SAB101
and EITF 00-10. The Company believes that these will not have a material impact
on the Company's consolidated financial statements.
In 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued FAS No.
133 "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities". In 2000, the
Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued FAS No. 138 "Accounting for
Certain Derivative Instruments and Certain Hedging Activities". The Company is
currently analyzing the implications of both FAS No. 131 and FAS No. 138. The
Company believes that these will not have a material impact on the Company's
consolidated financial statements.

which led to declining industry shipments.
Gross profit for the thirdsecond quarter of the current year was $214.2$216.7 million

Gross profit as a percentage of net sales, was favorably impacted by productivity improvementsincreased
manufacturing efficiencies and an
increase in the estimated useful lives of property, plant and equipment, which
was effective January 1, 2000. These increases were offset by raw material price
increases, resulting from rising oil and gas prices. The Company continues to
experience increased oil-related costs that have been difficult to recover or
offset on a timely basis. The Company believes that these higher costs and
higher interest rates are also having a dampening effect on the economy and the
flooring industry.cost reductions.

sales) for the prior year's thirdsecond quarter. The increaseincreased percentage was
primarily due to start up expenses associated withcosts of rolling out the expansion of the Company's hard surfaceshardsurface product lines throughout the United States.
In the third quarter of 2000, the Company reached an agreement in principle
to settle two antitrust class actions. The Company will contribute $13,500 to a

Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company's primary capital requirements are for working capital, capital
expenditures acquisitions and stock repurchases.acquisitions. The Company's capital needs are met through a
combination of internally generated funds, bank credit lines, securitization of
accounts receivable and credit terms from suppliers.
The level of accounts receivable increased from $337.8$358.8 million at the
beginning of 20002001 to $394.9$392.6 million at SeptemberJune 30, 2000.2001. The $57.1$33.7 million increase
was attributable to strong sales growth.seasonal fluctuation. Inventories increased from $494.8$574.6
million at the beginning of 20002001 to $592.8$619.2 million at SeptemberJune 30, 2000,2001, due
primarily to the need for a higher level of inventory to meet seasonal sales
demand and the increased

Crown
Crafts product lines.
Capital expenditures totaled $53.5$26.6 million for the first ninesix months of
2000,2001, and were incurred primarily to modernize and expand manufacturing
facilities and equipment. The Company's capital projects are primarily focused
on increasing capacity, improving productivity and reducing costs. Capital
spending for the remainder of 20002001 is expected to range from $21$50.1 million to
$31$60.1 million, the majority of which will be used to purchase equipment to
increase production capacity and productivity.
During 1999, theThe Company's Board of Directors has authorized the repurchase of up to 1015
million shares of its outstanding common shares. Duringstock. For the quarter ended July 1, 2000, the Board of Directors authorized an additional repurchase
of 5 million outstanding shares bringing the total authorized repurchase to 15
million. During the quarter ended SeptemberJune 30,
2000,2001, a total of approximately .2 million94 thousand shares of the Company's common stock
was purchased at an aggregate cost of approximately $4.4$3.2 million. Since the
inception of the program, a total of approximately 7.89.0 million shares have been
purchasedrepurchased at an aggregate cost of approximately $172.0$200.8 million. All of these
repurchases have been financed through the Company's operations and revolving line of credit.
In October 2000, the Company entered into a one-year receivables purchase
agreement enabling the Company to sell up to $250 million of an undivided
interest in a defined pool of trade accounts receivable and the securitization
agreement may be extended for one-year terms. The Company received approximately
$195 million in proceeds from the initial sale of receivables. The proceeds were
used to reduce borrowings under the revolving credit facility and will be
accounted for as a short-term financing. The Company is generally at risk for
losses associated with the sold receivables and will provide for these losses

arrangements.
Impact of Inflation
Inflation affects the Company's manufacturing costs and operating expenses.
The carpet industry has experienced significant inflation in the prices of raw
materials and fuel-related costs, beginning in the third quarter of 1999. For1999, but
such cost pressures have lessened during the period from 1997, throughlast half of 2000 and the endfirst
half of the second quarter of 1999, the carpet
industry has experienced moderate inflation in the prices of raw materials and
fuel-related costs.2001. The Company has generally passed along nylon fiber price increases
to its customers.customers although additional costs resulting from recent significant
inflationary pressures may not be fully recoverable through such price increases
in the near-term.
Seasonality
The carpet business is seasonal, with the Company's second, third and
fourth quarters typically producing higher net sales and operating income. By
comparison, results for the first quarter tend to be the weakest. This
seasonality is primarily attributable to consumer residential spending patterns
and higher installation levels during the spring and summer months.
Certain factors affecting the Company's performance
In addition to the other information provided in this Form 10-Q, the
following risk factors should be considered when evaluating an investment in
shares of Mohawk common stock.
A failure by Mohawk to complete acquisitions and successfully integrate acquired
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
operations could materially and adversely affect its business.
- --------------------------------------------------------------
Management intends to pursue acquisitions of complementary businesses as
part of its business and growth strategies. Although management regularly
evaluates acquisition opportunities, it cannot offer assurance that it will be
able to:
. successfully identify suitable acquisition candidates;
. obtain sufficient financing on acceptable terms to fund acquisitions;
. complete acquisitions;
. integrate acquired operations into Mohawk's existing operations;or
12
. profitably manage acquired businesses.
Acquired operations may not achieve levels of sales, operating income or
productivity comparable to those of Mohawk's existing operations, or otherwise
perform as expected. Acquisitions may also involve a number of special risks,
some or all of which could have a material adverse effect on Mohawk's business,
results of operations and
12
financial condition, including, among others:
. possible adverse effects on Mohawk's operating results;
. diversion of Mohawk management's attention and its resources; and
. dependence on retaining and training acquired key personnel.
The carpet industry is cyclical and a downturn in the overall economy could
- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
lessen the demand for Mohawk's products and impair growth and profitability.
- ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
The carpet industry is cyclical and is influenced by a number of general
economic factors. Prevailing interest rates, consumer confidence, spending for
durable goods, disposable income, turnover in housing and the condition of the
residential and commercial construction industries (including the number of new
housing starts and the level of new commercial construction) all have an impact
on Mohawk's growth and profitability. In addition, sales of Mohawk's principal
products are related to construction and renovation of commercial and
residential buildings. Any adverse cycle could lessen the overall demand for
Mohawk's products and could, in turn, impair Mohawk's growth and profitability.
The carpet business is seasonal and this seasonality causes Mohawk's results of
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
operations to fluctuate on a quarterly basis.
- ---------------------------------------------
Mohawk is a calendar year end company and its results of operations for the
first quarterand fourth quarters tend to be the weakest. Mohawk's second third and fourththird
quarters typically produce higher net sales and operating income. These results
are primarily due to consumer residential spending patterns and more carpet
being installed in the spring and summer months.
Mohawk's business is competitive and a failure by Mohawk to compete effectively
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
could have a material and adverse impact on Mohawk's results of operations.
- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Mohawk operates in a highly competitive industry. Mohawk and other
manufacturers in the carpet industry compete on the basis of price, style,
quality and service. Some of Mohawk's competitors may have greater financial
resources at their disposal. Mohawk has one competitor whose size could allow it
certain manufacturing cost advantages compared to other industry participants. If competitors substantially increase production
and marketing of competing products, then Mohawk might be required to lower its
prices or spend more on product development, marketing and sales, which could
adversely affect Mohawk's profitability.
An increase in the cost of raw materials could negatively impact Mohawk's
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------
profitability.
- --------------
The cost of raw materials has a significant impact on the profitability of
Mohawk. In particular, Mohawk's business requires it to purchase large volumes
of nylon fiber and polypropylene resin, which is used to manufacture fiber. The
cost of these raw materials is related to oil prices. Mohawk does not have any
long-term supply contracts for any of these products. While Mohawk generally
attempts to match cost increases with price increases, large increases in the
cost of such raw materials could adversely affect its business, results of
operations and financial condition if it is unable to pass these costs through
to its customers.
Mohawk may be responsible for environmental cleanup, which could negatively
- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
impact profitability.
- ---------------------
Various federal, state and local environmental laws govern the use of
Mohawk's facilities. Such laws govern:
. discharges to air and water;
. handling and disposal of solid and hazardous substances and waste;
and
. remediation of contamination from releases of hazardous substances in
Mohawk's facilities and off-site disposal locations.
Mohawk's operations are also governed by the laws relating to workplace safety
and worker health, which, among other things, establish asbestos and noise
standards and regulate the use of hazardous chemicals in the workplace. Mohawk
has taken and will continue to take steps to comply with these laws. Based upon
current
13
available information, Mohawk believes that complying with environmental and
safety and health requirements will not require material capital expenditures in
the foreseeable future. However, Mohawk cannot provide assurance that complying
with these environmental or health and safety laws and requirements will not
adversely affect its business, results of 13
operations and financial condition.
Future laws, ordinances or regulations could give rise to additional compliance
or remediation costs, which could have a material adverse effect on its
business, results of operations and financial condition.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In July 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 141,
Business Combinations, and SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets.
SFAS No. 141 requires that the purchase method of accounting be used for all
business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001. SFAS No. 142 will require
that goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite useful lives no longer be
amortized, but instead tested for impairment at least annually in accordance
with the provisions of SFAS No. 142.
The Company is required to adopt the provisions of SFAS No. 141
immediately, and SFAS No. 142 effective January 1, 2002. Furthermore, any
goodwill determined to have an indefinite useful life that was acquired in a
purchase business combination completed after June 30, 2001 will not be
amortized. Goodwill acquired in business combinations completed before July 1,
2001 will discontinue being amortized after December 31, 2001.
The Company is currently evaluating its existing goodwill that was acquired
in prior purchase business combinations for impairment and believes such
evaluation will not result in an adjustment that is material to the consolidated
financial statements.
As of the date of adoption, the Company expects to have unamortized
goodwill in the amount of $109,161. Amortization expense related to goodwill was
$3,184 and $1,605 for the year ended December 31, 2000 and the six months ended
June 30, 2001, respectively.
Forward-Looking Information
Certain of the matters discussed in the preceding pages, particularly
regarding anticipating future financial performance, business prospects, growth
and operating strategies, proposed acquisitions, new products and similar
matters, and those preceded by, followed by or that otherwise include the words
"believes," "expects," "anticipates," "intends," "estimates" or similar
expressions constitute "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of
Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. For those statements,
Mohawk claims the protection of the safe harbor for forward-looking statements
contained in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-
looking statements involve a number of risks and uncertainties. The following
important factors, in addition to those discussed elsewhere in this document,
affect the future results of Mohawk and could cause those results to differ
materially from those expressed in the forward-looking statements: materially
adverse changes in economic conditions generally in the carpet, rug and
floorcovering markets served by Mohawk; competition from other carpet, rug and
floorcovering manufacturers; oil price increases; raw material prices; timing and level of capital
expenditures; the successful integration of acquisitions, including the
challenges inherent in diverting Mohawk management's attention and resources
from other strategic matters and from operational matters for an extended period
of time; the successful introduction of new products; the successful
rationalization of existing operations; and other risks identified from time to
time in the Company's SEC reports and public announcements. Any forward-looking
statements represent Mohawk's estimates only as of the date of this report and
should not be relied upon as representing Mohawk's estimates as of any
subsequent date. While Mohawk may elect to update forward-looking statements at
some point in the future, Mohawk specifically disclaims any obligation to do so,
even if Mohawk's estimates change.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
The Company's market risk-sensitive instruments do not subjectTo reduce the risk of interest rate fluctuations, the Company engages in
the use of interest rate swap agreements. At June 30, 2001, the Company held one
interest rate swap agreement under which the Company pays a fixed percent of
interest times the notional principal amount and receives in return an amount
equal to material market risk exposures.a specified variable rate of interest times the same notional principal
amount. The fixed interest rate per the agreement is 5.82%, which expires
January 2, 2006. The average rate as of June 30, 2001 was 5.1%. This agreement
is considered highly effective as of June 30, 2001. The cumulative fair value of
the agreement as of June 30, 2001 was a liability of $979 thousand, which was
recorded in long-term liabilities with the offset to other comprehensive income,
net of applicable income taxes.
PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Procedings
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 December 1995, the Company and four other carpet manufacturers were
added as defendants in a purported class action lawsuit, In re Carpet Antitrust
Litigation, pending in the United States District Court for the Northern
District of Georgia, Rome Division. The amended complaint alleges price-fixing
regarding polypropylene products in violation of Section One of the Sherman Act.
In September 1997, the Court granted the plaintiffs' motion to certify the
class. In October 1998, two plaintiffs, on behalf of an alleged class of
purchasers of nylon carpet products, filed a complaint in the United States
District Court for the Northern District of Georgia against the Company and two
of its subsidiaries, as well as certain competitors. The complaint alleges that
the Company acted in concert with other carpet manufacturers to restrain
competition in the sale of certain nylon carpet products. The Company has filed an
answer, denied the allegations in the complaint and set forth its defenses.
14
On August 11, 2000, the Company presented to the Court the terms of an
agreement in principle to settle these two cases. On February 5, 2001, the Court
dismissed all claims against the Company and granted final approval to the
settlement. Under the terms of the settlement agreement, Mohawk will contributethe Company contributed
$13.5 million at the beginning of the second quarter of 2001 to a settlement
fund to resolve price-fixing claims brought by a class of purchasers of
polypropylene carpet and a proposed settlement class of purchasers of nylon
carpet. MohawkThe Company recorded a charge of $7 million in the third quarter of
2000, in connection with the lawsuit. The Company denies all liability and
wrongdoing and has agreed to settle these claims in order to avoid the costs of
further litigation. The settlement is subject to the
Court's preliminary approval, notice to the members of the two classes,
certification of the proposed settlement class, and final approval of the
settlement by the Court after a hearing. The one-time payment will only be made
after these conditions have occurred.
The Company is a party to two consolidated lawsuits captioned Gaehwiler v.
Sunrise Carpet Industries, Inc. et al. and Patco Enterprises, Inc. v. Sunrise
Carpet Industries, Inc. et al., both of which were filed in the Superior Court
of the State of California, City and County of San Francisco, in 1996. Both
complaints were brought on behalf of a purported class of indirect purchasers of
polypropylene carpet in the State of California and seek damages for alleged
violations of California antitrust and unfair competition laws. In February
1999, a similar complaint was filed in the Superior Court
14
of the State of
California, City and County of San Francisco, on behalf of a purported class
based on indirect purchasers of nylon carpet in the State of California and
alleges violations of California antitrust and unfair competition laws. The
complaints described above do not specify any specific amount of damages but do
request injunctive relief and treble damages plus reimbursement for fees and
costs. The Company believes it has meritorious defenses and intends to
vigorously defend against these actions.
