MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF THE CONDENSED STATEMENT OF EARNINGS Results of Operations: The following table has been prepared as an aid in understanding the Company's results of operations on a comparative basis for the second quarter and six-month ended December 31, 1999 and 1998. Amounts presented are percentages of the Company's net sales.

Residential seating sales volume increased $7,084,000 or 19.2%. Recreational vehicle seating sales increased $2,748,000 or 14.4%. Commercial seating volume decreased $2,003,000 or 30.6%. Gross margin increased $1,437,559 to $15,577,462 of sales in the current year from $14,139,903 reflecting higher sales volume. Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of sales were 17.0% and 17.4% for the current year and prior year, respectively. The cost percentage decrease was due to improved absorption of fixed costs. The current year quarter ended December 31, 1999 includes a net gain of $790,000, or $0.12 per share, on the sale of land and $405,000, or $0.06 per share, from the proceeds of life insurance. The above factors resulted in current fiscal quarter earnings of $3,589,479 or $0.54 per share (diluted) compared to $2,196,748 or $0.32 per share (diluted) in the prior year quarter, a net increase of $1,392,731 or $0.22 per share. Excluding the sale of land and life insurance proceeds, net earnings for the quarter ended December 31, 1999, improved $0.04 per share over the prior year quarter. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE LAST SIX MONTHS - Net sales for the six-months ended December 31, 1999 increased by $15,476,000 or 12.6% compared to the prior year six-month period. Residential seating sales volume increased $10,615,000 or 14.7%. Recreational vehicle seating sales increased $7,299,000 or 18.8%. Commercial seating volume decreased $2,438,000 or 20.9%. Gross margin increased $3,316,766 to $30,606,983 of sales in the current year from $27,290,217 reflecting higher sales volume. Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of sales were 16.9% and 17.5% for the current year and prior year, respectively. The cost percentage decrease was due to improved absorption of fixed costs. The current six-months ended December 31, 1999 includes a net gain of $790,000, or $0.12 per share, on the sale of land and $405,000, or $0.06 per share, from the proceeds of life insurance. The above factors resulted in current fiscal year earnings of $5,954,169 or $0.90 per share (diluted) compared to $3,991,651 or $0.58 per share (diluted) in the prior year, a net increase of $1,962,518 or $0.32 per share. Excluding the land sale and life insurance proceeds reported in the current year, net earnings for the six-months ended December 31, 1999 improved $0.14 per share or 19% over the prior six-month period. Liquidity and Capital Resources: Working capital at December 31, 1999 is $53,717,000 which includes cash, cash equivalents and investments of $12,271,000. Working capital increased by $3,507,000 from the June 30, 1999 amount. Net cash provided by operating activities was $4,139,000 during the first six months of fiscal year 2000 versus $6,177,000 in the first six months of fiscal year 1999. Capital expenditures were $3,952,000 during the first six months of fiscal 2000 and $4,080,000 in fiscal 1999. The current year expenditures were incurred primarily for manufacturing and delivery equipment and the expansion of our Riverside, California facility. During the next six months approximately $2,750,000 will be spent on manufacturing equipment, leasehold improvements and the completion of the expansion project in California. The Company has leased a 90,000 square foot residential furniture production facility in Harrison, Arkansas and a 30,000 square foot vehicle seating production facility in Dunkirk, Indiana. Both of these facilities are scheduled to begin production during the quarter ending March 31, 2000. Approximately $1,000,000 of projected capital expenditures relate to these facilities. On November 4, 1998 the Company announced a plan to repurchase up to 700,000 shares, or slightly more than 10% of the Company's outstanding common stock. The Company will make the purchases, from time to time, in the open market as the Company deems appropriate. Under this authorization, 478,600 shares of common stock have been repurchased to date.
