NOTES TO INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. The accompanying interim consolidated financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles
applicable to interim financial information and the rules and regulations
of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Accordingly, they do not
include all of the information and disclosures required by generally
accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the
opinion of management, such interim consolidated financial statements
contain all adjustments necessary to present fairly the Company's financial
position as of January 1, 1995 and the results of its operations and its
cash flows for the periods ended January 1, 1995 and December 26, 1993.
Such adjustments include normal recurring accruals and a pro rata portion
of certain estimated annual expenses.
2. Interest costs of $106,000 and $396,000 were capitalized during the nine
month periods ended January 1, 1995 and December 26, 1993, respectively.
3. The computation of net earnings per share for the periods ended January 1,
1995 and December 26, 1993 is based on the simple average shares
outstanding. Stock options outstanding did not have a dilutive effect
during either period.
4. Major classes of inventory were as follows (in thousands):

FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Total net sales $59,702 $56,281 $155,360 $137,838
======= ======= ======== ========
THREE MONTH PERIOD ENDED JANUARY 1, 1995
Consolidated net sales increased 6.1% in the quarter ended January 1, 1995 as
compared to the quarter ended December 26, 1993. The current year quarter
included one less week of shipping due to a scheduled week-long holiday
shutdown. This shutdown did not occur until the fourth fiscal quarter in the
prior year.
Net sales of comforters and accessories declined 20.2% compared to the prior
year quarter. In addition to the loss of one full week of shipping, import
quota restrictions on hand-made quilts from China and quality problems in
fabrics manufactured by the Company's supplier for the popular Royal Sateen
luxury brand also had a significant effect on net sales for the current year
quarter.
The Company and its Royal Sateen fabric supplier believe the quality problems,
which were related to Egyptian cotton supplies, have been remedied. However,
as a result of these problems, over the last several months the Company
received only sporadic shipments of acceptable material. The Company expects
to return to normal customer service levels for these products by April.
The jacquard-woven products category continued its strong growth with a net
sales increase of 39.0% over the prior year quarter, primarily due to
increased unit sales of cotton throws. This product category includes cotton
throws, bedspreads, blankets and rugs.
The Company expects a long-term worldwide trend of increased demand for
jacquard-woven cotton products. The manufacturing capacity expansion completed
during this fiscal year plus significant production from the Company's
strategic partner in Mexico have not been sufficient to meet current demands.
To support this growth, the Company recently initiated plans for capital
projects that will triple production capacity for matelasse bedspreads and
increase cotton throw capacity by over fifty percent. These capital projects
include a new weaving plant in Dalton, Georgia and an expansion of the
distribution center in Calhoun, Georgia. These projects will be completed
during the second quarter of fiscal 1996 at an estimated cost of $20 million.
-7-
The devaluation of the peso and the resulting impact on the Mexican economy is
not expected to have a significant impact on the level of business done with
the Company's partner in Mexico. The sale of products which the Company
purchases from Mexico has not been affected. The Company is planning growth in
this area, but the extent of that growth is unclear at this time. Plans for
sales into Mexico are being scaled back. Such sales have not been significant
in the past.
Gross margin was 24.3% for the quarter ended January 1, 1995 compared to 20.9%
for the quarter ended December 26, 1993. This improvement was due in part to
the automated warehouses in Roxboro, North Carolina and Calhoun, Georgia
operating at full efficiency throughout the quarter. Also, gross margin in the
prior year quarter was negatively impacted by higher costs incurred due to the
unanticipated need to air freight certain Chinese hand-made quilt styles to
meet strong customer demand and inventory write-downs on slow moving styles.
Marketing and administrative expenses increased $1,037,000 or 15.7% in the
current year quarter. The increase was primarily attributable to increased
staffing and occupancy costs to support the overall growth in the Company's
business.
The effective income tax rate increased to 37.5% in the current year quarter
compared to 36.7% in the prior year quarter due to anticipated higher effective
income tax rates.
NINE MONTH PERIOD ENDED JANUARY 1, 1995
Consolidated net sales increased 12.7% for the nine months ended January 1,
1995 as compared to the corresponding prior year period.
Net sales of comforters and accessories declined 3.7% for the current year nine
month period due to the decline which occurred in the third fiscal quarter as
explained under "RESULTS OF OPERATIONS" for the three month period ended
January 1, 1995. Net sales of jacquard-woven cotton products increased 35.5%
for the current year nine month period primarily due to increased unit sales of
cotton throws.
Gross margin improved to 22.4% for the nine month period ended January 1, 1995
as compared to 20.4% for the nine month period ended December 26, 1993. The
increase was the result of improved product mix, the operating efficiencies
achieved at the Company's automated warehouses in Roxboro and Calhoun and the
costs incurred in the prior year third fiscal quarter in connection with
Chinese hand-made quilts and the inventory write-downs on slow moving styles.
Marketing and administrative expenses increased by $3,506,000 or 21.0% during
the nine month period ended January 1, 1995 as compared to the corresponding
prior year period. The increase was primarily attributable to increased
staffing and occupancy costs to support the overall growth in the Company's
business. Increased advertising expenses for product promotion and increased
factoring fees due to the higher sales volume also contributed to the increase.
Excluding the effect of capitalized interest, interest expense increased by .9%
in the first nine months of the current year. Capitalized interest was
$106,000 and $396,000 during the nine month periods ended January 1, 1995 and
December 26, 1293, respectively.
FINANCIAL POSITION, LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Company's financial position remains strong. Shareholders' equity
increased to $84.1 million at January 1, 1995 from $75.4 million at April 3,
1994. Working capital decreased to
-8-
$34.5 million at January 1, 1995 from $40.6 million at April 3, 1994 as
the Company utilized funds of $15.3 million for capital expenditures, primarily
in connection with the construction of the Calhoun Distribution Center and the
purchase of additional weaving equipment for existing Georgia locations.
These projects were completed during the first quarter of the fiscal year. The
Company also repaid $5.0 million of long-term debt. The ratio of debt to
equity was 0.3:1 at both January 1, 1995 and April 3, 1994.
The Company maintains lines of credit with two banks aggregating $30.0 million
which are used as needed. Total borrowings outstanding under these lines at
January 1, 1995 were $13.1 million.
To fund the capacity expansion for the jacquard-woven product line as explained
under "RESULTS OF OPERATIONS" for the three month period ended January 1, 1995,
the Company will use cash generated from operations, borrowings under the
credit lines described above and is also considering the use of additional
long-term debt financing.
