For Immediate Release		November 12, 2008

Crown Crafts, Inc. Reports Results for Second Quarter of Fiscal Year 2009; Reaffirms Revenue
and Earnings Guidance for Fiscal Year 2009

Gonzales, Louisiana – Crown Crafts, Inc. (the “Company”) (NASDAQ-CM: CRWS) today reported net income for the second quarter of fiscal year 2009 and reaffirmed revenue and earnings guidance for fiscal year 2009.

Historical Results

Net income for the second quarter of fiscal year 2009 was $1,035,000, or $0.11 per diluted share, on net sales of $23.8 million compared to net income for the second quarter of fiscal year 2008 of $541,000, or $0.05 per diluted share, on net sales of $17.1 million.

“We are very pleased that we have nearly doubled our bottom line,” commented E. Randall Chestnut, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company. “Our gross profit for the quarter has increased in amount, although our gross profit percentage has declined year-over-year. Amortization associated with the acquisition of the baby products line of Springs Global in the third quarter of fiscal year 2008, the costs of establishing a Foreign Representative Office in China and increased product costs from Asia contributed to this decline. Despite these added costs, we have increased our overall profitability by increasing our top-line sales and by holding the line on our marketing and administrative costs, which were nearly unchanged from the prior year. Our EBITDA (earnings before interest and taxes plus depreciation and amortization) more than doubled to $2.5 million in the current year, up from $1.1 million in the prior year.” Mr. Chestnut continued.

FY 2009 Guidance

The Company also reaffirmed its 2009 revenue, EBITDA and EPS guidance. The Company expects net revenues for fiscal year 2009, which ends March 29, 2009, to be in the range of $90.0 million to $93.0 million. In addition, the Company expects EBITDA for fiscal year 2009 to be in the range of $10.2 million, or 11.3% of net sales, to $10.8 million, or 11.6% of net sales, and diluted earnings per share to be in the range of $0.41 to $0.46.

The Company uses EBITDA to monitor the Company’s operating and cash flow performance and to evaluate the performance of its businesses. The Company believes that the presentation of EBITDA provides useful information to investors and is an important indicator of the Company’s ability to generate cash sufficient to reduce debt, make strategic investments, meet capital expenditures and working capital requirements and otherwise meet its obligations as they become due. EBITDA is not considered a measure of financial performance under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), and the items excluded from EBITDA are significant components in understanding and assessing the Company’s financial performance. EBITDA is provided as supplemental information and should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for, such GAAP measures as net income, cash flow provided by or used in operating, investing or financing activities, and other measures of financial performance and liquidity reported in accordance with GAAP. In addition, because EBITDA is not a measure determined in accordance with GAAP and can be calculated in varying ways, EBITDA, as presented, may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies.
