The following analysis of financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes and other exhibits included elsewhere in this report.

General

Our fiscal year is the 52 or 53-week period ending on the Sunday closest to April 30. The company's three months ended August 3, 2025, and July 28, 2024, represent 14-week and 13-week periods, respectively. We refer to the three months ended August 3, 2025 as the "first quarter" and the three months ended July 28, 2024 as the "comparable quarter".

Our operations are classified into two business segments: bedding (formerly known as mattress fabrics) and upholstery (formerly known as upholstery fabrics). 

Bedding

The bedding segment manufactures, sources, and sells fabrics and mattress covers primarily to bedding manufacturers. Currently, we have a mattress fabrics manufacturing operation located in Stokesdale, North Carolina, and a sewn mattress cover operation located in Ouanaminthe, Haiti.

On April 29, 2024 (the first quarter of fiscal 2025), our board of directors made a decision to: (1) consolidate the company's North American mattress fabrics operations, including the closure and sale of the company's manufacturing facility and related land ("collectively referred to as the "Property") located in Quebec, Canada; (2) move a portion of the knitting and finishing capacity from the facility located in Quebec, Canada, to the company's manufacturing facility located in Stokesdale, North Carolina; (3) transition the mattress fabrics segment's weaving operation to a strategic sourcing model through the company's long standing supply partners; (4) consolidate the company's sewn mattress cover operation located in Ouanaminthe, Haiti, from two leased facilities into one building and reduce other operating expenses at this location; and (5) reduce unallocated corporate expenses and shared service expenses.  See Note 10 of the consolidated financial statements for further details regarding this restructuring activity.

Upholstery

The upholstery segment develops, sources, manufactures, and sells fabrics primarily to residential, commercial, and hospitality furniture manufacturers. Currently, we have upholstery fabric operations located in Shanghai, China, Burlington, North Carolina, and Vietnam. 

Also, Read Window Products, LLC (“Read”), is a wholly owned subsidiary that operates a leased facility in Knoxville, Tennessee, which provides window treatments and sourcing of upholstery fabrics and other products, as well as related measuring and installation services, to customers in the hospitality and
