been restated to reflect this change. The following reconciliation

diluted earnings per share for the respective periods:

On January 6, 1998, the Company declared a three-for-two stock split
in the form of a stock dividend, payable on February 20, 1998 to
shareholders of record as of January 30, 1998. Fiscal 1997 stock-
holders' equity has been restated to give the retroactive recognition
to the stock split in the prior period by reclassifying from
additional paid-in-capital to common stock the par value of the
1,485,297 shares arising from the split. In addition, all references
to per share amounts of the Company's common stock have been restated.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION
Results of Operations
---------------------
Net sales in the first quarter of 1998 increased 17.2 percent to
$10,605,965 as compared to $9,045,992 for the first quarter of 1997.
The increase in sales for the three months of 1998 was primarily due
to the same store sales volume at the Company's Prestige Home Centers
increasing 14.5% to $7,634,390 from $6,665,533 for the first quarter
of 1997.
Gross profit in the first quarter of 1998 as a percentage of net
sales was 25.5 percent compared to 24.5 percent for the same period last
year. The increase in gross profit in first quarter 1998 was primarily a
result of improvements in the gross margins at both the manufacturing
plants and retails sales centers.
Selling, general and administrative expenses, as a percentage of net
sales, was 14.2 percent in the first quarter of 1998 compared to 15.1
percent for the same period last year. The decline in first quarter 1998
selling, general and administrative expenses as a percent of net sales was
primarily due to a reduction in these expenses at the manufacturing
plants.
Other income for first quarter 1998 was $92,853 of which $63,819 was
from interest on short term investments and $25,852 was undistributed
earnings from the Nobility 21 financing joint venture, versus $25,379 in
other income for the first quarter of last fiscal year.
As a result of the factors discussed above, net income for the first
quarter of 1998 was $800,315 or $.18 per share, compared to $541,214 or
$.12 per share in 1997. Earnings per share for 1997 have been restated
to reflect a three-for-two stock split in the form of a 50% stock dividend
paid on February 20, 1998.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
-------------------------------
Cash and cash equivalents were $6,355,568 at January 31, 1998
compared to $6,293,924 as of November 1, 1997. Accounts receivable -
trade increased to $1,007,168 at January 31, 1998 from an abnormally low
$386,019 at November 1, 1997, but was down from $1,586,767 in first
quarter ended February 1, 1997.
The Company maintains a revolving credit agreement with a major bank
providing for borrowings up to $2.5 million and a second revolving line of
credit agreement with a major bank which provides for borrowings up to
$1.5 million. These two agreements provide the Company with an additional
$4.0 million of working capital for use in connection with its overall
operations. At January 31, 1998, there were no amounts outstanding under
these agreements.
Consistent with normal practice, the Company's operations are not
expected to require significant capital expenditures during fiscal 1998.
Working capital requirements for the home inventory for new sales centers
will be met with internal sources.
