THE DIXIE GROUP, INC.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(UNAUDITED)

(dollars in thousands, except per share data)



NOTE A - BASIS OF PRESENTATION



The accompanying unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial statements which do not include all the information and footnotes required by such accounting principles for annual financial statements.  In the opinion of management, all adjustments (generally consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included in the accompanying financial statements.  The financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's 2006 Annual Report on Form 10-K/A filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, which includes consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 30, 2006.  Operating results for the three month and six month periods ended June 30, 2007 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the entire 2007 year.



The Company is in one line of business, carpet manufacturing.



NOTE B - RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS



In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 157, "Fair Value Measurements".  SFAS No. 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles and expands disclosures about fair value measurements.  SFAS No. 157 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007 and interim periods within those fiscal years.  The Company does not expect the adoption of this statement to have a material effect on its financial statements.



In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, "The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities", including an amendment of SFAS No. 115, "Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities".  SFAS No. 159 permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value.  The objective of SFAS No. 159 is to improve financial reporting by providing entities with the opportunity to mitigate volatility in reported earnings caused by measuring related assets and liabilities differently without having to apply complex hedge accounting provisions.  Eligible items for the measurement option include all recognized financial assets and liabilities except: investments in subsidiaries, interests in variable interest entities, obligations for pension benefits, assets and liabilities recognized under leases, deposit liabilities and financial instruments that are a component of shareholder's equity.  Also included are firm commitments that involve only financial instruments, nonfinancial insurance contracts and warranties and host financial instruments.



The Statement permits all entities to choose the fair value measurement option at specified election dates, after which the entity shall report unrealized gains and losses on items for which the fair value option has been elected in earnings, at each subsequent reporting date.  The fair value option may be applied instrument by instrument; however, the election is irrevocable and may apply only to entire instruments and not to portions of instruments.  SFAS No. 159 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007.  The Company is currently evaluating its options under this statement.



NOTE C - SHARE-BASED PAYMENTS



The Company recognizes compensation expense relating to share-based payments based on the fair value of the equity or liability instrument issued.



On March 2, 2007, the Company granted 108,720 shares of restricted stock to officers of the Company.  The grant-date fair value of the awards was $1,425, or $13.11 per share.  The shares will vest over terms ranging from 2 to 20 years.  Each award is subject to a continued service condition.  The fair value of each share of restricted stock awarded was equal to the market value of a share of the Company's Common Stock on the grant date.



The Company's stock compensation expense was $399 and $627 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007 and $193 and $311 for the three and six months ended July 1, 2006, respectively.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(UNAUDITED)

(dollars in thousands, except per share data)  --  Cont'd.



The Company's senior loan and security agreement, which matures on May 11, 2010, provides $76,866 of credit, consisting of $60,000 of revolving credit and a $16,866 term loan.  The Company's credit facilities do not contain ongoing financial covenants; however, these facilities contain covenants that generally limit dividends and repurchases of the Company's Common Stock to an aggregate of $3,000 annually and could limit future acquisitions.  The unused borrowing capacity under the senior loan and security agreement on June 30, 2007 was approximately $21,099.



On July 16, 2007, the Company amended its senior loan and security agreement to  increase the level of "permitted purchase money debt" as defined in the loan agreement from $10,000 to $20,000.  The other provisions in the loan agreement remain unchanged.



NOTE J - DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS



The Company is a party to an interest rate swap agreement with a notional amount of $30,000 through May 11, 2010.  Under the interest rate swap agreement, the Company pays a fixed rate of interest of 4.79% times the notional amount and receives in return a specified variable rate of interest times the same notional amount.  The interest rate swap is linked to the Company's variable rate debt and is considered a highly effective hedge.  The fair value of the interest rate swap agreement is reflected on the Company's consolidated condensed balance sheets and related gains and losses are deferred in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss ("AOCL").  Net unrealized gains included in AOCL were $228 at June 30, 2007.



The Company is also a party to an interest rate swap agreement through March 2013, which is linked to a mortgage note payable and considered a highly effective hedge.  Under the interest rate swap agreement, the Company pays a fixed rate of interest times a notional amount equal to the outstanding balance of the mortgage note, and receives in return an amount equal to a specified variable rate of interest times the same notional amount.  The fair value of the interest rate swap agreement is reflected on the Company's consolidated condensed balance sheets and related gains and losses are deferred in AOCL.  As of June 30, 2007, the notional amount of the interest swap agreement was $6,657.  Under the terms of the swap agreement, the Company pays a fixed interest rate of 4.54% through March 2013, which effectively fixes interest on the mortgage note payable at 6.54%.  Net unrealized gains included in AOCL were $150 at June 30, 2007.



NOTE K - EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS



The Company sponsors a 401(k) defined contribution plan covering substantially all associates.  The Company matches associates' contributions, on a sliding scale, up to a maximum of 5% of the associate's earnings.  The Company may make additional contributions to the plan if the Company attains certain performance targets.



The Company sponsors a non-qualified retirement savings plan that allows eligible associates to defer a specified percentage of their compensation.  The obligations owed to participants under this plan were $12,630 at June 30, 2007 and $11,704 at December 30, 2006 and are included in other liabilities in the Company's consolidated condensed balance sheets. The obligations are unsecured general obligations of the Company and the participants do not have a right, interest or claim in the assets, except as unsecured general creditors. The Company has established a Rabbi Trust to hold, invest and reinvest deferrals and contributions under the plan. Assets invested in cash and company-owned life insurance in the Rabbi Trust were $12,804 at June 30, 2007 and $11,673 at December 30, 2006 and is included in cash and cash equivalents and other long-term assets in the Company's consolidated condensed balance sheets.



The Company also sponsors a defined benefit retirement plan that covers a limited number of the Company's active associates.



During June 2006, the Company completed the termination and distribution of assets of a defined benefit plan that had been frozen since 1993 as to new benefits.  The majority of associates covered by this plan were previously employed by operations that were sold or discontinued. Settlement expenses for the plan termination recognized in the quarter ended July 1, 2006 were $3,249, or $2,057 net of tax. The funds required to terminate the plan were $2,595.

THE DIXIE GROUP, INC.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(UNAUDITED)

(dollars in thousands, except per share data)  --  Cont'd.



Amounts contributed or expected to be contributed by the Company during the current fiscal year to its pension and postretirement plans are not anticipated to be significantly different from amounts disclosed in the Company's 2006 Annual Report filed on Form 10-K/A.



NOTE L - INCOME TAXES



The Company adopted the provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board Interpretation No. 48, "Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes - an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109" ("FIN 48") on the first day of the Company's fiscal year 2007.  The Company's reserves for uncertain tax positions at December 30, 2006 were $319 and did not change as a result of the implementation of FIN 48.  Unrecognized tax benefits were $343 at June 30, 2007, all of which, if recognized, would favorably affect the Company's effective tax rate.  The Company does not expect its unrecognized tax benefits to change significantly during the next twelve months.



The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions in income tax expense.  As of June 30, 2007, accrued interest related to uncertain tax positions was $50.



The Company and its subsidiaries are subject to United States federal income taxes, as well as income taxes in a number of state jurisdictions.  The Company's tax years 2003 through 2006 remain open to examination for U.S. federal income taxes and most state jurisdictions.  A few state jurisdictions remain open to examination for tax years 2002 through 2006.



During the three months ended July 1, 2006, the Company settled a Federal income tax audit for the fiscal year 2003; although the 2003 tax year remains open to examination through September 2007.  As a result of the settlement of the audit, the Company reduced its tax contingency reserve and its income tax provision by $460 to reflect the settlement of certain items previously included in the Company's tax contingency reserve.  The effect on the Company's consolidated condensed statements of operations was to reduce the effective tax rate to 13.6% and 15.6%, respectively for the three and six month periods ended July 1, 2006.

ITEM 2.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION



The following is presented to update the discussion of results of operations and financial condition included in our 2006 Annual Report on Form 10-K/A filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.



CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES



Our critical accounting policies were outlined in Management's Discussion and Analysis of Results of Operations and Financial Condition in our 2006 Annual Report on Form 10-K/A filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. There have been no changes to those critical accounting policies subsequent to the date of that report.

Net Sales.  Net sales for the quarter ended June 30, 2007 were $84.4 million, down 4.1% from net sales of $88.0 million in the year-earlier quarter. Net sales for the first six months of 2007 were $158.9 million, down 5.0% from net sales of $167.2 million in the prior year period.  The decline in net sales is principally attributable to significant weakness in residential carpet markets that began to be experienced in the third quarter of 2006 and has continued through the second quarter of 2007.



Our net sales of residential carpet products declined 10.3% in the second quarter of 2007 and 9.8% for the first six months of 2007, compared with the same periods in 2006.  In addition to the general industry weakness, our residential carpet business has been negatively affected by a significant decline in sales to one large customer.  Net sales to our other residential customers declined 4.2% in both the second quarter and first six months of 2007.  We continued to experience good demand in our commercial carpet business.  Year-over-year sales of our commercial carpet products reflected net sales growth of 7.3% and 3.6%, respectively for the second quarter and first six months of 2007.  Despite weakness in the residential portion of our business, our sales continue to outperform the carpet industry, where sales of carpet products reflected a year-over-year decline of 7.7% in the second quarter and 8.7% for the first six months of 2007.  The industrys net sales of residential products declined 12.7% and 13.8%, respectively for the second quarter and first six months of 2007.  During this same period, the industrys net sales of commercial products grew 2.0% in the second quarter and 1.5% for the first six months of 2007.



Although our residential carpet markets remain weak, we have continued to develop new and differentiated products, many of which should reach the market later this year.  The outlook for our commercial business continues to be favorable.  Sales of commercial products grew significantly in the second quarter of this year and our order entry and sales comparisons in July indicate this business is strengthening.  The recent improvement we have seen in sales and order entry for our commercial products and the anticipated effect of our new residential and commercial products make us optimistic that our sales will continue to outpace the sales of the carpet industry.



Cost of Sales.  Cost of sales, as a percentage of net sales, decreased 3.0 percentage points and 2.2 percentage points, respectively in the second quarter and first six months of 2007, compared with the same periods in 2006. The decreases were primarily a result of a better  product mix and improvements in materials utilization, manufacturing and distribution efficiencies and production quality.

Raw material costs increased in June of this year and we raised our selling prices to recoup this higher cost.  The effect of these higher selling prices should be felt during the third and fourth quarters of this year.



Gross Profit.Despite lower net sales,gross profit increased $1.5 million in the second quarter and $1.1 million for the first six months of 2007 compared with the same periods in 2006. The increase in gross profit reflects the effect of the factors described above that decreased cost of sales as a percentage of net sales.



Selling and Administrative Expenses. Selling and administrative expenses increased $1.7 million in the second quarter and $2.3 million for the first six months of 2007, compared with the same periods in 2006.  The cost increases are principally a result of investments in our sales and marketing infrastructure and new products, information systems and normal inflationary cost increases.



Other Operating Income/Other Operating Expense.  Other operating income and other operating expense were not significant in the second quarter or first six months of either 2007 or 2006.



Defined Benefit Pension Plan Termination Expenses.  Expenses to terminate our legacy defined benefit pension plan were $3.2 million in the second quarter of 2006.  Approximately $2.9 million of these expenses related to the settlement of pension benefits for employees of our discontinued textile business segment that had been terminated in 1999 and prior years.  The remaining expenses related to the settlement of pension benefits for employees of our ongoing floorcovering business segment.



Operating Income.Operating income was $5.7 million, or 6.7% of sales, in the quarter ended June 30, 2007 and $7.6 million, or 4.8% of sales, for the first six months of 2007 compared with $2.8 million, or 3.2% of sales, in the quarter ended July 1, 2006 and $6.0 million, or 3.6% of sales, for the first six months of 2006. Defined benefit pension plan termination expenses negatively affected operating income by 3.7 percentage points and 1.9 percentage points, respectively for the quarter and six months ended July 1, 2006.



Interest Expense.  Interest expense decreased in the second quarter and first six months of 2007 compared with the same periods in 2006 principally due to lower levels of debt in 2007.



Other Income/Other Expense.Other income and other expense were not significant in the second quarter or first six months of either 2007 or 2006.



Income Tax Provision.Oureffective income tax rate was 36.1% and 36.3%, respectively for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007. Our income tax provision (benefit) included a $460 thousand reduction in our tax contingency reserve for the three and six months ended July 1, 2006, principally as a result of a federal income tax examination concluded during the second quarter of 2006.  Excluding the contingency reserve adjustment in 2006, the effective income tax rate was 37.2% and 35.5%, respectively for the three and six months ended July 1, 2006.



Income From Continuing Operations. Income from continuing operations was $2.5 million, or $0.20 per diluted share, for the quarter ended June 30, 2007 compared with $1.0 million, or $0.08 per diluted share, for the quarter ended July 1, 2006. Income from continuing operations was $2.8 million, or $0.21 per diluted share, for the first six months of 2007 compared with $2.0 million, or $0.15 per diluted share, for the first six months of 2006.  Income from continuing operations in the second quarter and first six months of 2006 was reduced by $2.1 million, net of tax, or $0.16 per diluted share as a result of settlement expenses to terminate the defined benefit pension plan in the second quarter of 2006.



Net Income.  The loss from discontinued operations was $118 thousand, or $0.01 per diluted share, in the second quarter of 2007, compared with a loss of $84 thousand, or $0.01 per diluted share for the second quarter of 2006.  For the first six months of 2006, the loss from discontinued operations was $184 thousand, or $0.01 per diluted share, compared with a loss of $174 thousand, or $0.01 per diluted share in the year earlier period.



Including discontinued operations, net income was $2.4 million, or $0.19 per diluted share, for the second quarter of 2007, compared with net income of $944 thousand, or $0.07 per diluted share, for the second quarter of 2006. For the first six months of 2007, net income was $2.6 million, or $0.20 per diluted share, compared with $1.8 million, or $0.14 per diluted share, in the 2006 period.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES



During the six-months ended June 30, 2007, we increased debt by $7.0 million, generated $400 thousand of funds from the issuance of common stock under stock option plans and utilized $400 thousand of cash on our balance sheet to fund our operations and purchase $7.8 million of capital assets. $3.4 million of the increase in debt related to equipment financing notes, which bears interest at fixed rates of interest ranging from 6.83% to 6.85%.



Working capital increased $9.3 million for the first six months of 2007 principally due to seasonable increases in accounts receivable, inventories and accounts payable and accrued expenses.  Capital expenditures for the six month period ended June 30, 2007 were $7.8 million while depreciation and amortization was $6.8 million.  We expect capital expenditures to be approximately $16.0 million for fiscal 2007 while depreciation and amortization is expected to be approximately $13.0 million.  Planned capital expenditures in 2007 primarily relate to new manufacturing technology and information systems.



On July 16, 2007, we amended our senior loan and security agreement to increase the level of "permitted purchase money debt" as defined in the loan agreement from $10.0 million to $20.0 million.  The other provisions in the loan agreement remain unchanged.



The unused borrowing capacity under the senior loan and security agreement  was approximately $21.1 million at June 30, 2007.



We believe our operating cash flows and existing credit facilities are adequate to finance our anticipated liquidity requirements.



RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS



In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 157, "Fair Value Measurements".  SFAS No. 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles and expands disclosures about fair value measurements.  SFAS No. 157 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007 and interim periods within those fiscal years.  We do not expect the adoption of this statement to have a material effect on our financial statements.



In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, "The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities", including an amendment of SFAS No. 115, "Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities".  SFAS No. 159 permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value.  The objective of SFAS No. 159 is to improve financial reporting by providing entities with the opportunity to mitigate volatility in reported earnings caused by measuring related assets and liabilities differently without having to apply complex hedge accounting provisions.  Eligible items for the measurement option include all recognized financial assets and liabilities except: investments in subsidiaries, interests in variable interest entities, obligations for pension benefits, assets and liabilities recognized under leases, deposit liabilities and financial instruments that are a component of shareholder's equity.  Also included are firm commitments that involve only financial instruments, nonfinancial insurance contracts and warranties and host financial instruments.



The Statement permits all entities to choose the fair value measurement option at specified election dates, after which the entity shall report unrealized gains and losses on items for which the fair value option has been elected in earnings, at each subsequent reporting date.  The fair value option may be applied instrument by instrument; however, the election is irrevocable and may apply only to entire instruments and not to portions of instruments.  SFAS No. 159 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007.  We are currently evaluating our options under this statement.



CERTAIN FACTORS AFFECTING THE COMPANY'S PERFORMANCE



In addition to the other information provided in this Report, the risk factors included in Item 1A should be considered when evaluating results of our operations, future prospects and an investment in shares of our Common Stock.  Any of these factors could cause our actual financial results to differ materially from our historical results, and could give rise to events that might have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION



This Report contains statements that may be considered forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. These statements include the use of terms or phrases that include such terms as "expects," "estimated," "projects," "believes," "anticipates," "intends," and similar terms and phrases. Such terms or phrases relate to, among other matters, our future financial performance, business prospects, growth strategies or liquidity. The following important factors may affect our future results and could cause those results to differ materially from our historical results. These factors include, in addition to those detailed above under the heading "Certain Factors Affecting the Company's Performance", the cost and availability of capital and raw materials, transportation costs related to petroleum price levels, the cost and availability of energy supplies, the loss of a significant customer or group of customers, materially adverse changes in economic conditions generally in carpet, rug and floorcovering markets we serve and other risks detailed from time to time in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.



ITEM 3 - Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk (Dollars in thousands)



The Company's earnings, cash flows and financial position are exposed to market risks relating to interest rates.  The Company minimizes its exposure to adverse changes in interest rates and manages interest rate risks inherent in funding the Company with debt through a risk management program that includes maintaining a mix of fixed and floating rate debt and the use of derivative financial instruments.



At June 30, 2007, the Company had an interest rate swap agreement applicable to its mortgage note payable. The agreement has a notional amount equal to the outstanding balance of the mortgage note ($6,657 at June 30, 2007) which expires in March of 2013.  Under the agreement, the Company pays a fixed rate of 4.54% of interest times the notional amount and receives in return an amount equal to a specified variable rate of interest times the same notional amount.  The swap agreement effectively fixes the interest rate on the mortgage note payable at 6.54%.



On October 11, 2005, the Company entered into an interest rate swap agreement with a notional amount of $30,000 through May 11, 2010.  Under the interest rate swap agreement, the Company pays a fixed rate of interest of 4.79% times the notional amount and receives in return an amount equal to a specified variable rate of interest times the same notional amount.  The interest rate swap agreement is linked to the Company's variable rate debt and is considered a highly effective hedge.



At June 30, 2007, $23,352, or approximately 24% of the Company's total debt, was subject to floating interest rates.  A 10% fluctuation in the variable interest rates applicable to this floating rate debt would have had an annual after-tax impact of approximately $106.



ITEM 4 - Controls and Procedures



Restatement - We amended and restated our Annual Report of on Form 10-K/A for the year ended December 30, 2006 and our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q/A for the quarterly periods ending July 1, 2006 and September 30, 2006 in response to comments from the Securities and Exchange Commission regarding our Annual Report on Form 10K for the fiscal year ended December 30, 2006.  See Note Q  Restatement of Consolidated Financial Statements, of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the fiscal year ended December 30, 2006, which fully describes the restatement of our previously issued financial statements to change the presentation of pension costs relating to our discontinued textile business in our Consolidated Statements of Operations and Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for the years ended December 31, 2006 and December 31, 2005 and of income tax payments related to the sale of a business in our Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows for the year ended December 25, 2004.  These changes in presentation had no impact on previously reported Net Income, Net Income per share, total cash flow, our Balance Sheets or stockholders equity.  These changes in presentation also did not affect compliance with our loan covenants or financial rewards granted to our associates and officers.



Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures.  We maintain disclosure controls and procedures to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the commissions rules and forms and is accumulated and communicated to management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.  Our Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and Chief Financial Officer (CFO) have evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as such terms are defined in Rules 13(a)-15(e) and 15(d)-15(e)) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act) as of June 30, 2007, the date of the financial statements included in this Form 10-Q (the Evaluation Date).

Public Company Accounting Oversight Board Auditing Standard No. 2 (AS-2) defines a material weakness over financial reporting as a significant deficiency or a combination of significant deficiencies that results in more than a remote likelihood that a material misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected.  AS-2 identifies certain circumstances that are to be regarded as a significant deficiency and as a strong indicator that a material weakness in internal control over financial reporting exists.  The restatement of previously issued financial statements to reflect the correction of an error is such an indicator, under AS-2.



In conducting our evaluation, we considered the provisions of AS-2, which identifies a restatement as a strong indicator of a material weakness in internal control over financial reporting.  We also considered the following additional factors: the facts underlying our original classification of the pension costs that were the subject of our restatement were disclosed in our consolidated financial statements and notes thereto, and our original classification of such pension costs and income tax payments were reviewed with and concurred in by Ernst & Young LLP, our independent registered public accounting firm.  Based on our evaluation on July 12, 2007, our CEO and CFO concluded that as AS-2 is currently interpreted, our restatement of previously issued financial statements must be considered, a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting and our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of June 30, 2007.



Remediation of Material Weakness in Internal Control and Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting



Subsequent to June 30, 2007, we remediated the material weakness described above by restating our financial statements as described above.  We continue to monitor new and emerging accounting guidance and industry interpretations to assist in our application of U. S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, and we will seek additional guidance regarding the accounting treatment of matters that, in our judgment, require such additional review.  Accordingly, we have remediated the material weakness in our internal control and our CEO and CFO have concluded that, as of date hereof, our disclosure controls and procedures and internal controls over financial reporting are effective.



No changes in our internal control over financial reporting occurred during the quarter covered by this report that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to affect, our internal control over financial reporting.



Internal control over financial reporting cannot provide absolute assurance of achieving financial reporting objectives because of its inherent limitations. Internal control over financial reporting is a process that involves human diligence and compliance and is subject to lapses in judgment and breakdowns resulting from human failures, as well as diverse interpretation of U. S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principals by accounting professionals.. Internal control over financial reporting also can be circumvented by collusion or improper management override. Because of such limitations, there is a risk that material misstatements may not be prevented or detected on a timely basis by internal control over financial reporting. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.  These inherent limitations are known features of the financial reporting process; therefore, it is not possible to design into the process safeguards to eliminate all risk.

In addition to the other information provided in this Report, the following risk factors should be considered when evaluating results of our operations, future prospects and an investment in shares of our Common Stock.  Any of these factors could cause our actual financial results to differ materially from our historical results, and could give rise to events that might have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.



The floorcovering industry is cyclical and prolonged declines in residential or commercial construction activity or corporate remodeling and refurbishment could have a material adverse effect on our business.

Page 18



---

The U.S. floorcovering industry is cyclical and is influenced by a number of general economic factors.  The floorcovering industry in general is dependent on residential and commercial construction activity, including new construction as well as remodeling. New construction is cyclical in nature. To a somewhat lesser degree, this also is true with residential and commercial remodeling.  A prolonged decline in any of these industries could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. The level of activity in these industries is significantly affected by numerous factors, all of which are beyond our control, including among others:



·

consumer confidence;·

housing demand; ·

financing availability; ·

national and local economic conditions; ·

interest rates; ·

employment levels; ·

changes in disposable income; ·

commercial rental vacancy rates; and ·

federal and state income tax policies.

Our product concentration in the higher-end of the residential and commercial markets could significantly affect the impact of these factors on our business.



We face intense competition in our industry, which could decrease demand for our products and could have a material adverse effect on our profitability.



The floorcovering industry is highly competitive.  We face competition from a number of domestic manufacturers and independent distributors of floorcovering products and, in certain product areas, foreign manufacturers.  There has been significant consolidation within the floorcovering industry during recent years that has caused a number of our existing and potential competitors to be larger and have greater resources and access to capital than we do.  Maintaining our competitive position may require us to make substantial additional investments in our product development efforts, manufacturing facilities, distribution network and sales and marketing activities, which may be limited by our access to capital, as well as restrictions set forth in our credit facilities.  Competitive pressures may also result in decreased demand for our products and in the loss of market share.  In addition, we face, and will continue to face, pressure on sales prices of our products from competitors.  As a result of any of these factors, there could be a material adverse effect on our sales and profitability.



Raw material prices may increase.



The cost of raw materials has a significant impact on our profitability.  In particular, our business requires the purchase of large volumes of nylon yarn, synthetic backing, latex, and dyes.  Increases in the cost of these raw materials could materially adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition if we are unable to pass these increases through to our customers.  We believe we are successful in passing along raw material and other costs as they may occur; however, there can be no assurance that we will successfully recover such increases in cost.



Unanticipated termination or interruption of our arrangements with third-party suppliers of nylon yarn could have a material adverse effect on us.



Nylon yarn is the principal raw material used in our floorcovering products.  A significant portion of nylon yarn is purchased from one supplier.  We believe there are other sources of nylon yarns; however, an unanticipated termination or interruption of our supply arrangements could adversely affect our supply arrangements and could be material.



We may be responsible for environmental cleanup costs.



Various federal, state and local environmental laws govern the use of our facilities. These laws govern such matters as:

·

Discharges to air and water;

·

Handling and disposal of solid and hazardous substances and waste; and

·

Remediation of contamination from releases of hazardous substances in our facilities and off-site disposal locations.

Our operations also are governed by laws relating to workplace safety and worker health, which, among other things, establish noise standards and regulate the use of hazardous materials and chemicals in the workplace.  We have taken, and will continue to take, steps to comply with these laws. If we fail to comply with present or future environmental or safety regulations, we could be subject to future liabilities.  However, we cannot insure that complying with these environmental or health and safety laws and requirements will not adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.  Future laws, ordinances or regulations could give rise to additional compliance or remediation costs that could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.



Acts of Terrorism.



Our business could be materially adversely affected as a result of international conflicts or acts of terrorism.  Terrorist acts or acts of war may cause damage or disruption to our facilities, employees, customers, suppliers, and distributors, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations or financial condition.  Such conflicts also may cause damage or disruption to transportation and communication systems and to our ability to manage logistics in such an environment, including receipt of supplies and distribution of products.



Unanticipated Business Interruptions.



Our business could be adversely affected if a significant portion of our plant, equipment or operations were damaged or interrupted by a casualty, condemnation, utility service, work stoppage or other event beyond our control.  Such an event could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.
