1. Preparation of Interim Finan

1. Preparation of Interim Financial Statements	6 Months Ended

Disclosure Text Block [Abstract]
Business Description and Basis of Presentation [Text Block]	1. The condensed consolidated financial statements of Hooker Furniture Corporation and subsidiaries (referred to as “we,” “us,” “our,” “Hooker” or the “Company”) have been prepared in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). In the opinion of management, these statements include all adjustments necessary for a fair statement of the results of all interim periods reported herein. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. Certain information and footnote disclosures prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) are condensed or omitted pursuant to SEC rules and regulations. However, we believe that the disclosures made are adequate for a fair presentation of our results of operations and financial position. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in our annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2016 (“2016 Annual Report”). The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect both the reported amounts of 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 our estimates. Operating results for the interim periods reported herein may not be indicative of the results expected for the fiscal year. References in this document to “HMI” refer to Home Meridian International, the counter-party to the asset purchase agreement we entered into on January 6, 2016. References in this document to “Home Meridian” or “Home Meridian segment” refer to the newly acquired business operations and operating segment that was created upon the closing of the asset purchase agreement on February 1, 2016. On February 1, 2016, we acquired substantially all of the assets and assumed certain liabilities of Home Meridian International, Inc. (“HMI”) for $86 million in cash and the issuance of 716,910 shares of our common stock valued at $20.3 million (such numbers include agreed upon post-closing working capital adjustments). Based on the way we manage, evaluate and internally report our operations, we determined that Home Meridian’s newly acquired operations will be reported as a separate operating segment. See notes 3 and 14 for additional details on the acquisition and our operating segments. The results of operations of Home Meridian are included in our results of operations beginning on February 1, 2016, the first day of our 2017 fiscal year. Conversely, since the acquisition was completed on the first day of the current fiscal year, comparable prior-year information for the Home Meridian segment is not included in the financial statements presented in this report. The acquisition is discussed in greater detail below in Note 3 Acquisition. We adopted Accounting Standard’s Update (“ASU”) No. 2015-03, "Interest-Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30): Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs" We adopted ASU No. 2015-16, "Business Combinations (Topic 805) Simplifying the Accounting for Measurement Period Adjustments",

Business Combinations [Abstract]
Business Combination Disclosure [Text Block]	3. Acquisition On February 1, 2016, we completed the previously announced acquisition (the “Acquisition”) of substantially all of the assets of Home Meridian International, Inc. (“HMI”) pursuant to the Asset Purchase Agreement into which we and HMI entered on January 5, 2016 (the “Asset Purchase Agreement”). Upon completion and including post-closing working capital adjustments, we paid $86 million in cash and issued 716,910 shares of our common stock (the “Stock Consideration”) to designees of HMI as consideration for the Acquisition. The Stock Consideration consisted of (i) 530,598 shares due to the $15 million of consideration payable in shares of our common stock under the Asset Purchase Agreement, and (ii) 186,312 shares issued pursuant to working capital adjustments detailed in the Asset Purchase Agreement. The working capital adjustment was driven by an increase in HMI’s accounts receivable due to strong sales towards the end of calendar 2015. The number of shares of common stock issued at closing for the Stock Consideration was determined by reference to the mean closing price of our common stock for the fifteen trading days immediately preceding the closing date ($28.27). Under the Asset Purchase Agreement, we also assumed certain liabilities of HMI, including approximately $7.8 million of liabilities related to certain retirement plans. The assumed liabilities did not include the indebtedness (as defined in the Asset Purchase Agreement) of HMI. Also on February 1, 2016, we entered into an amended and restated loan agreement (the “Loan Agreement”) with Bank of America, N.A. (“BofA”) in connection with the completion of the Acquisition. The Loan Agreement increases the amount available under our existing unsecured revolving credit facility to $30 million and increases the sublimit of such facility available for the issuance of letters of credit to $4 million. The Loan Agreement also provided us with a $41 million unsecured term loan (the “Unsecured Term Loan”) and a $19 million term loan (the “Secured Term Loan”) secured by a security interest in certain Company-owned life insurance policies granted to BofA under a security agreement, dated as of February 1, 2016 (the “Security Agreement”). On February 1, 2016, we borrowed in full the amounts available under the Unsecured Term Loan and the Secured Term Loan in connection with the completion of the Acquisition. For additional details regarding the Loan Agreement, see Note 9 Long Term Debt, below. In accordance with FASB Accounting Standards Codification 805, Business Combinations The following table summarizes the preliminary estimates of the fair values of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the Acquisition as of July 31, 2016. The preliminary estimates of fair value of identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed are subject to revisions, which may result in adjustments to the preliminary values presented below, when management’s appraisals and estimates are finalized, expected to be completed by the end of the current fiscal year. Fair value estimates of assets acquired and liabilities assumed Purchase price consideration Cash paid for assets acquired, including working capital adjustment $ 86,062 Value of shares issued for assets acquired 15,000 Value of shares issued for excess net working capital 5,267 Total purchase price $ 106,329 Accounts receivable $ 46,210 Inventory 37,606 Prepaid expenses and other current assets 1,776 Property and equipment 5,801 Intangible assets 27,800 Goodwill 23,398 Accounts payable (22,681 ) Accrued expenses (4,861 ) Pension plan liabilities and deferred compensation balances (8,720 ) Total purchase price $ 106,329 Property and equipment were recorded at fair value and primarily consist of leasehold improvements and will be amortized over their estimated useful lives. Goodwill is calculated as the excess of the purchase price over the net assets acquired. The goodwill recognized is attributable to growth opportunities and expected synergies. All but $1.5 million in goodwill will be deductible for income tax purposes. Intangible assets, net, consist of three separately identified assets: § Home Meridian tradenames of $11.6 million consisting of: o Indefinite-lived intangible assets with an aggregate fair value of $11.4 million. The tradenames are not subject to amortization, but will be evaluated annually and as circumstances dictate, for impairment; and o Definite-lived intangible assets with an aggregate fair value of $200,000, which we expect to amortize over an eight-year period. § Home Meridian customer relationships which are definite-lived intangible assets with an aggregate fair value of $14.4 million. The customer relationships are amortizable and will be amortized over a period of eleven years; and § Home Meridian order backlog which is a definite-lived intangible assets with an aggregate fair value of $1.8 million which we will amortize over five months, with most of the expense recognized in the fiscal 2017 first quarter. The allocation of the purchase price to intangible assets, as well as their estimated useful lives, is preliminary and may be adjusted. We also assumed the net liability for Home Meridian’s legacy pension plans of $8.7 million, which was based on an actuarial valuation performed on February 2, 2016. The market value of pension plan assets, primarily consisting of mutual funds, was $11.6 million on February 2, 2016. Components of net periodic benefit cost for these plans are based on annual actuarial valuations and are included in our condensed consolidated statements of income under selling and administrative expenses. The following unaudited consolidated pro forma summary has been prepared by adjusting our historical data to give effect to the Acquisition as if it had occurred on February 1, 2015: 13 Weeks Ended 26 Weeks Ended (in millions except per share data) August 2, 2015 August 2, 2015 (Pro forma) (Pro forma) Net Sales $ 139,580 $ 265,379 Net Income 5,280 9,170 Basic EPS 0.49 0.85 Diluted EPS 0.49 0.85 The unaudited consolidated pro forma financial information was prepared in accordance with existing standards and is not necessarily indicative of the results of operations that would have occurred if the Acquisition had been completed on the date indicated, nor is it indicative of our future operating results. Material non-recurring adjustments excluded from the pro forma financial information in the table above consist of amortization of intangible assets, elimination of transaction related costs and an adjustment of the interest rate on short and long term debt to reflect the interest rates in the our amended credit facility. The unaudited pro forma results do not reflect events that either have occurred or may occur in the future. They also do not give effect to certain charges that we expect to incur in connection with the Acquisition, including, but not limited to, additional professional fees, employee integration, retention, potential asset impairments and accelerated depreciation and amortization. We recorded Acquisition related costs of $100,000 in the fiscal second quarter and $1.0 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2017 and expect to incur an additional $200,000 during the remainder of fiscal 2017. These expenses are included in the “Selling and administrative expenses” line of our condensed consolidated statements of income.

We are now managing Sam Moore and Bradington Young’s accounts receivable in-house. As of July 31, 2016, $1.7 million in Bradington Young receivables represent outstanding receivables for which payment is due to us from the factor as part of its residual obligations under Bradington Young’s legacy factoring agreement. A limited number of our accounts receivable for Bradington Young were factored with recourse to us. The amounts of these receivables at July 31, 2016 and January 31, 2016 were $168,000 and $255,000 ,

8. Fair Value Measurements

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]
Fair Value Disclosures [Text Block]	8. Fair Value Measurements Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in an orderly transaction between market participants on the applicable measurement date. We use a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value. These tiers include: Level 1, defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities; Level 2, defined as inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable; and Level 3, defined as unobservable inputs for which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions. As of July 31, 2016 and January 31, 2016, Company-owned life insurance was measured at fair value on a recurring basis based on Level 2 inputs. The fair value of the Company-owned life insurance is determined by inputs that are readily available in public markets or can be derived from information available in publicly quoted markets. Additionally, the fair value of the Company-owned life insurance is marked to market each reporting period and any change in fair value is reflected in income for that period. The majority of our Company-owned life insurance policies are pledged as collateral for the secured term loan (which had a balance of $17.1 million balance at July 31, 2016) that is part of our original $90 million credit facility related to the Home Meridian acquisition (described in Note 10. Debt below). As of July 31, 2016, a mortgage note receivable (related to the previously announced sale of our Cloverleaf facility during the fiscal 2015 first quarter) was measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis using Level 3 inputs. The note receivable was recorded at approximately $1.6 million, which was the face value of the note issued for the mortgage. The carrying value of the note receivable is assumed to approximate its fair value. We measure the probability to collect amounts due to us under this note receivable primarily based on the buyer’s payment history. Specifically, we consider the buyer’s adherence to the contractual payment terms for both the timeliness and payment amounts. Should it become probable that we would be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the underlying loan agreement, we would measure the note for impairment and record a valuation allowance against the note receivable, if needed, with the related expense charged to income for that period. The current portion of this note receivable is included on the “Prepaid expenses and other current assets” line of our condensed consolidated balance sheets. The non-current portion of this note receivable is included in the “Other assets” line of our condensed consolidated balance sheets. The assets of the Home Meridian segment’s legacy Pension Plan (the “Plan”) were measured at fair value on a recurring basis based on Level 1 inputs. Pension plan assets, held in a trust account by the Plan’s trustee, primarily consist of a wide-range of mutual fund asset classes, including domestic and international equities, fixed income securities such as corporate bonds, mortgage-backed securities, real estate investments and U.S. Treasuries. As of February 2, 2016, the date of the latest actuarial valuation, Plan assets were netted against the Plan’s Projected Benefit Obligation (“PBO”) on that date to determine the Plan’s funded status. Since the PBO exceeded the market value of the Plan’s assets, the funded status is recorded in our condensed consolidated balance sheets as a net liability. As of February 2, 2016, the net liability for this plan was $6.2 million, with $1.2 million of that amount (representing expected benefit payments over fiscal 2017) included in the “Accrued salaries, wages and benefits” line of our condensed consolidated balance sheets and $4.9 million shown on the “Pension Plan” line of our condensed consolidated balance sheets. The market value of pension plan assets shown below are as of February 2, 2016. See note 11. Employee Benefit Plans for additional information about the Plan. Our assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis at July 31, 2016 and January 31, 2016, respectively, were as follows: Fair value at July 31, 2016* Fair value at January 31, 2016 Description Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total (In thousands) Assets measured at fair value Company-owned life insurance $ - $ 21,907 $ - $ 21,907 $ - $ 21,888 $ - $ 21,888 Mortgage note receivable - - 1,561 1,561 - - 1,575 1,575 Pension plan assets 11,585 11,585 *February 2, 2016 for Pension plan assets

Intangible Assets Disclosure [Text Block]	9.

Long-term Debt [Text Block]	10. Debt On February 1, 2016, we entered into an amended and restated loan agreement (the "Loan Agreement") with Bank of America, N.A. ("BofA") in connection with the completion of the Home Meridian acquisition. Also on February 1, 2016, we borrowed in full the amounts available under the Unsecured Term Loan (the "Unsecured Term Loan") and the Secured Term Loan (the "Secured Term Loan") in connection with the completion of this acquisition. Details of the individual credit facilities provided for in the Loan Agreement are as follows: · Unsecured revolving line of credit. The Loan Agreement increased the amount available under our existing unsecured revolving credit facility to $30 million and increased the sublimit of the facility available for the issuance of letters of credit to $4 million. Amounts outstanding under the revolving facility bear interest at a rate, adjusted monthly, equal to the then current LIBOR monthly rate plus 1.50%. We must also pay a quarterly unused commitment fee that is based on the average daily amount of the facility utilized during the applicable quarter; · Unsecured Term Loan. The Loan Agreement provided us with a $41 million unsecured term loan. Any amount borrowed under the Unsecured Term Loan will bear interest at a rate, adjusted monthly, equal to the then current LIBOR monthly rate plus 1.50%. We must repay any principal amount borrowed under Unsecured Term Loan in monthly installments of approximately $490,000, together with any accrued interest, until the full amount borrowed is repaid or until February 1, 2021, at which time all amounts outstanding under the Unsecured Term Loan will become due and payable; and · Secured Term Loan. The Loan Agreement provided us with a $19 million term loan secured by a security interest in certain Company-owned life insurance policies granted to BofA under a security agreement, dated as of February 1, 2016 (the "Security Agreement"). Any amount borrowed under the Secured Term Loan will bear interest at a rate, adjusted monthly, equal to the then current LIBOR monthly rate plus 0.50%.We must pay the interest accrued on any principal amount borrowed under the Secured Term Loan on a monthly basis until the full principal amount borrowed is repaid or until February 1, 2021, at which time all amounts outstanding under the Secured Term Loan will become due and payable. BofA's rights under the Security Agreement are enforceable upon the occurrence of an event of default under the Loan Agreement. We may prepay any outstanding principal amounts borrowed under either the Unsecured Term Loan or the Secured Term Loan in full or in part on any interest payment date without penalty. Since the closing date we have made unscheduled payments of $5.0 million on the Unsecured Term Loan and $1.9 million on the Secured Term Loan, in addition to the regularly scheduled debt service payments required by the Loan Agreement. Additionally, we incurred $165,000 in debt issuance costs in connection with our terms loans. These costs are amortized over the life of the loan using the interest method and are included in the "interest expense" line of our condensed consolidated income statements. Unamortized debt issuance costs are netted against the carrying value of our term loans on our condensed consolidated balance sheets. As of July 31, 2016, unamortized loan costs of $142,000 were netted against the carrying value of our term loans on our condensed consolidated balance sheets. The Loan Agreement also included customary representations and warranties and requires us to comply with customary covenants, including, among other things, the following financial covenants: § Maintain a tangible net worth of at least: □ As of the fiscal year-end January 31, 2016, $105.0 million plus 40% of net income before taxes earned in the 2016 fiscal year; and □ As of the end of each subsequent fiscal year, the minimum tangible net worth required for the prior fiscal year, plus 40% of net income, before taxes, earned in each subsequent fiscal year. § Maintain a ratio of funded debt to EBITDA not exceeding: □ 2.50:1.0 through August 31, 2017; □ 2.25:1.0 through August 31, 2018; and □ 2.00:1.00 thereafter. § A basic fixed charge coverage ratio of at least 1.25:1.00; and § Limit capital expenditures to no more than $15.0 million during any fiscal year with expenditures to acquire fixed assets pursuant to the Acquisition being excluded for the fiscal year in which the Acquisition occurs. The Loan Agreement also limits our right to incur other indebtedness, make certain investments and create liens upon our assets, subject to certain exceptions, among other restrictions. The Loan Agreement does not restrict our ability to pay cash dividends on, or repurchase, shares of our common stock, subject to our compliance with the financial covenants discussed above, if we are not otherwise in default under the Loan Agreement. As of July 31, 2016, we had an aggregate $28.9 million available under our revolving credit facility to fund working capital needs. Standby letters of credit in the aggregate amount of $1.1 million, used to collateralize certain insurance arrangements and for imported product purchases, were outstanding under the revolving credit facility as of July 31, 2016. There were no additional borrowings outstanding under the revolving credit facility on July 31, 2016. Any principal outstanding under the revolving credit facility is due July 31, 2018.

Compensation and Retirement Disclosure [Abstract]
Pension and Other Postretirement Benefits Disclosure [Text Block]	11. Employee Benefit Plans We maintain a supplemental retirement income plan (“SRIP”) for certain former and current executives of Hooker Furniture Corporation. Additionally, we assumed Home Meridian’s pension plan and other retirement plan liabilities upon completion of the Home Meridian acquisition on February 1, 2016. Home Meridian’s legacy pension plan obligations relate to Pulaski Furniture Corporation, one of two entities combined to form HMI. These legacy pension plan obligations include: § the Pulaski Furniture Corporation Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan (“SERP”) for certain former executives. The SERP is an unfunded plan and all benefits are paid solely out of our general assets; and § the Pulaski Furniture Corporation Pension Plan (“Pension Plan”) for former Pulaski Furniture Corporation employees. The SRIP, SERP and Pension plans are all “frozen” and we do not expect to add additional employees to any of these plans in the future. Pension plan assets include a range of mutual fund asset classes and are measured at fair value using level one inputs, which are quoted prices in active markets. The consolidated liability for our pension plan obligations at July 31, 2016 and January 31, 2016 were $16.8 million and $8.2 million, respectively, and are shown in our condensed consolidated balance sheets as follows: July 31, January 31, 2016 2016 Accrued salaries, wages and benefits (current portions) SRIP $ 354 $ 354 SERP 261 - Pension 1,191 - Total current portion $ 1,806 $ 354 Long-term portions SRIP $ 8,009 $ 7,799 SERP 2,123 - Total deferred compensation* 10,132 7,799 Pension Plan 4,881 - Total deferred compensation and pension plans 15,013 $ 7,799 Consolidated pension liabilities $ 16,819 $ 8,153 *Total Deferred Compensation shown in the Long-Term Liabilities section of our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets is $10.7 million at July 31, 2016 and $8.4 million at January 31, 2016. These totals include the SRIP and SERP amounts shown in the table above, as well as miscellaneous additional long-term compensation-related items unrelated to these plans.

The SRIP and SERP plans are unfunded plans. Consequently, we expect to pay a total of approximately $300,000 in benefit payments from our general assets during the remainder of fiscal 2017 to fund SRIP and SERP payments.

Earnings Per Share [Abstract]
Earnings Per Share [Text Block]	12 . Earnings Per Share We refer you to the discussion of Earnings Per Share in Note 1-Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, in the financial statements included in our 2016 Annual Report, for additional information concerning the calculation of earnings per share. We have issued restricted stock awards to non-employee members of the board of directors since 2006 and restricted stock units (RSUs) to certain senior executives since fiscal 2012 under the Company’s Stock Incentive Plan. Each RSU entitles an executive to receive one share of the Company’s common stock if the executive remains continuously employed with the Company through the end of a three-year service period. The RSUs may be paid in shares of our common stock, cash or both at the discretion of the Compensation Committee of our board of directors. We expect to continue to grant these types of awards annually in the future. The following table sets forth the number of outstanding restricted stock awards and RSUs, net of forfeitures and vested shares, as of the fiscal period-end dates indicated: July 31, January 31, 2016 2016 Restricted shares 26 25 Restricted stock units 20 13 46 38 All restricted shares and RSUs awarded that have not yet vested are considered when computing diluted earnings per share.

Income Tax Disclosure [Text Block]	13. Income Taxes The effective tax rates for the fiscal 2017 and 2016 second quarters were 35.1% and 33.4%, respectively. The effective tax rates for the first half of fiscal 2017 and 2016 were 35.3% and 34.3%, respectively. The effective tax rates in both the fiscal 2017 second quarter and fiscal 2017 first half were higher than the comparable 2016 fiscal periods primarily due to the settlement of an uncertain tax position during the fiscal 2016 second quarter. The net unrecognized tax benefits as of July 31, 2016 and January 31, 2016, which, if recognized, would affect our effective tax rate are $169,000 and $221,000, respectively. Tax returns for fiscal years 2013 through 2016 remain subject to examination by federal and state taxing authorities. An examination of the fiscal 2013 return with federal taxing authorities was completed during fiscal 2016 with no changes. An examination of our North Carolina state tax returns for fiscal year 2012 and 2013 was completed during the fiscal 2017 first quarter with no material changes.

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract]
Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Text Block]	15. Contingencies Customs Penalty In September 2009, U.S. Customs and Border Protection (“CBP”) issued an audit report asserting that we had not paid all required antidumping duties due with respect to certain bedroom furniture we imported from China. In February 2015, CBP assessed a civil penalty of approximately $2.1 million and unpaid duties of approximately $500,000 on the matter. In December 2015, in response to our petition to eliminate or modify the assessment, CBP revised the proposed penalty to approximately $1.7 million, while leaving the duty assessment at approximately $500,000. We continue to assert that no antidumping duties are due and that there is no basis for the imposition of a penalty. We intend to vigorously defend against the penalty. In the opinion of management, the ultimate disposition of this matter will not have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations, or liquidity.
