KRAUSE'S FURNITURE, INC
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
1. The accompanying consolidated financial statements of Krause's Furniture,
Inc. (the "Company") and its wholly owned subsidiaries, including the Company's
principal subsidiary, Krause's Sofa Factory ("Krause's"), have been prepared
pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission
and reflect all adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary
for a fair presentation for the periods reported. Certain information and note
disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or
omitted pursuant to those rules or regulations, although management believes
that the disclosures made are adequate to make the information presented not
misleading.
These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the
consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in the
Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended January 28, 1996. The
results of operations for the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended October 27,
1996 are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected in future periods.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reported
periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
2. On August 26, 1996 and September 10, 1996 the Company completed
transactions with investors in which the Company received cash proceeds of
$15,669,000 from financings through issuances of $10,669,000 of common stock, at
$1 per share, and a $5 million subordinated note with a warrant to purchase
1,400,000 shares of common stock at $.001 per share. In addition $2,950,000 of
existing notes plus accrued interest were exchanged for 3,066,251 shares of
common stock and outstanding Series A preferred stock was converted into
1,176,950 shares of common stock.
The proceeds from these transactions allows the Company to accelerate its
strategic objectives and initiatives including downsizing showroom square
footage to reduce occupancy expenses, upgrading and remodeling showrooms to
provide a more appealing setting for customers, remerchandising, refocusing
advertising expenditures, improving manufacturing processes, and reducing
corporate expenses. These objectives and initiatives are expected to contribute
significantly to reducing losses and ultimately returning the Company to
profitability. The Company's long-term success is dependent upon its ability to
successfully execute management's strategic plan and, ultimately, to achieve
sustained profitable operations.

=========== ==========
The secured revolving credit notes were issued under a revolving credit
facility with a financial institution that expires in January 2000. Borrowings
under the revolving credit facility are based on the value of eligible
inventory, as defined, and as of October 27, 1996 were limited to approximately
$6.8 million. Interest on the loans as of October 27, 1996 was payable monthly
at the rate of 1% in excess of the prime rate (8.25%). Substantially all of
Krause's assets are pledged as collateral for the notes.
The subordinated note was issued August 26, 1996 (Note 2) and bears
interest at 10% per annum, payable in additional subordinated notes for the
first two years. Semiannual mandatory redemptions of $1,015,336 are required
beginning February 28, 1999 through final maturity on August 31, 2001. The
subordinated note was issued with a warrant to purchase 1,400,000 shares of
common stock at $.001 per share at any time through August 31, 2006. The fair
value of the warrant of $1,400,000 was reflected in the consolidated financial
statements as a discount on the subordinated note and an increase in capital in
excess of par value. This discount is being amortized to interest expense using
the effective interest method over the term of the subordinated note.
5. Net loss per share amounts were computed based on the weighted average
number of common shares outstanding during the periods reported. Common
equivalent shares are not included in the computation since such share
equivalents are antidilutive.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULT OF OPERATIONS
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Thirteen Weeks Ended October 27, 1996 Compared to Thirteen Weeks Ended October
29, 1995
Net furniture sales for the third fiscal quarter 1996 were $26,865,000
which was a decrease of approximately 14.1% from net sales in the comparable
quarter of 1995. The sales decrease was primarily attributable to a 13.7%
decrease in same-store sales in the third quarter 1996 compared to the third
quarter 1995 and the fact that Krause's operated two fewer stores in the 1996
quarter. The same-store sales decrease was the result, among other things, of an
industry-wide softness in retail sales and the shortage of raw materials due to
insufficient cash available for purchases of raw materials required for
production and shipments. Raw material shortages have continued into the third
quarter, however, this condition began to improve in September 1996.
Gross margin was 52.4% of net sales in the third quarter 1996 compared to
52.0% in the third quarter 1995. The higher gross margins resulted primarily
from initiatives implemented to reduce the level of discounting and changes in
the mix of products sold.
Selling expenses as a percentage of sales were 52.4% in the third quarter
1996 compared to 47.7% in the same period last year. Selling expenses were
$14,081,000 in the third quarter 1996 and $14,915,000 in the third quarter 1995.
The increase in total selling expenses as a percentage of sales was principally
because of fixed showroom expenses applied to lower sales volume. Also sales
commissions, delivery expenses and advertising expenses were higher as a
percentage of sales, offset in part by certain expenses which were lower as a
result of having two less stores operating in 1996.
General and administrative expenses were $301,000 lower in the third
quarter 1996 compared to the same quarter in 1995 principally due to general
cost reductions.
Interest expense increased by $131,000 in the third quarter 1996 compared
to the same quarter in 1995 principally due to higher average debt outstanding
in 1996 compared to the prior year period.
As a result of the above factors, net loss was $2,521,000 in the third
quarter ended October 27, 1996 compared to a net loss of $1,395,000 in the third
quarter ended October 29, 1995. Net loss per share in the 1996 quarter was $.24
based on 10,556,000 average shares outstanding. In the comparable 1995 quarter
the net loss per share was $.34 based on 4,082,000 average shares outstanding.

10
Thirty-Nine Weeks Ended October 27, 1996 Compared to Thirty-Nine Weeks Ended
October 29, 1995
Net furniture sales for the first thirty-nine weeks of 1996 were
$82,738,000 compared to $92,465,000 for the same period in fiscal 1995. The
sales decrease was due principally to a same-store sales decrease of 9.9% and to
the reasons explained above in the third quarter comparisons.
Gross margin was 48.8% of net sales in the 1996 period compared to 51.7% in
the 1995 period. Lower gross margins in 1996 resulted from extensive promotional
pricing during the first half of the 1996 period and changes in the mix of
products sold.
Selling expenses were $43,556,000, a decrease of $976,000 from the same
period last year. Selling expenses were 52.6% of net furniture sales in 1996
compared to 48.2% in the 1995 period. Selling expenses increased as a percentage
of sales primarily due to the reasons explained above in the third quarter
comparisons.
General and administrative expenses decreased by $242,000 due principally
to general cost reductions offset somewhat by higher employee termination
expenses and professional fees.
Interest expense in the 1996 period increased by $254,000 due principally
to higher average debt outstanding compared to the prior year.
Income tax benefits of $1,327,000 in the first nine months of 1995
represents refundable income taxes available from the carryback of 1995 losses.
There were no carryback benefits recorded in 1996 and none are available in
future periods.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
As of October 27, 1996, the Company had $6,341,000 in cash and cash
equivalents compared to $1,336,000 as of January 28, 1996.
Cash Flow - Thirty-Nine Weeks Ended October 27, 1996
Cash and cash equivalents increased by $5,005,000 during the period.
Operating activities used net cash of $8,581,000, principally from a $10,521,000
cash loss from operations and decreases in accounts payable and other
liabilities of $1,293,000 offset by a decrease in inventories of $2,006,000 and
collections of income tax refund receivables of $1,467,000. Investing activities
during the period included capital expenditures of $563,000, principally for
additions to leasehold improvements at retail showrooms. Financing activities
during the period were comprised principally of proceeds from issuances of
common stock of $10,221,000, proceeds from issuances of $2,950,000 of
convertible and demand notes and issuance of a subordinated note of $5,000,000,
offset by net payments of $3,975,000 under the Company's revolving credit
facility.

11
Cash Flow - Thirty-Nine Weeks Ended October 29, 1995
Cash and cash equivalents decreased by $208,000 during the period.
Operating activities used net cash of $1,292,000 principally from a $2,636,000
cash loss from operations and a decrease in accounts payable and other
liabilities of $1,626,000, offset by decreases in inventories of $2,657,000 and
other assets of $313,000. Investing activities were capital expenditures of
$955,000 principally for costs of construction of a showroom in Dallas and for
additions to leasehold improvements of other new showrooms. The Dallas showroom
was sold for approximately $1 million cash in May 1995 and leased back. This
sale and leaseback resulted in a $386,000 deferred profit to be amortized over
the term of the lease. Financing activities included $2,052,000 of net
borrowings under a revolving credit agreement.
Outlook
On August 26, 1996 and September 10, 1996 the Company completed
transactions with investors in which the Company received cash proceeds of
$15,669,000 from financings as described in Note 2 of Notes to Consolidated
Financial Statements.
The proceeds from these transactions allow the Company to accelerate its
strategic objectives and initiatives including downsizing showroom square
footage to reduce occupancy expenses, upgrading and remodeling showrooms to
provide a more appealing setting for customers, remerchandising, refocusing
advertising expenditures, improving manufacturing processes, and reducing
corporate expenses. These objectives and initiatives are expected to contribute
significantly to reducing losses and ultimately returning the Company to
profitability. The Company's long-term success is dependent upon its ability to
successfully execute management's strategic plan and, ultimately, to achieve
sustained profitable operations. Operating losses are expected to continue at
least through the first quarter 1997. Except as required to achieve the
strategic objectives described above, the Company has no significant long-term
capital expenditure requirements or commitments.
