6. Revenue Recognition



Revenue is recognized when goods are shipped, which is
when legal title passes to the customer. For product installations subject to customer approval, revenue is recognized upon acceptance by the customer. The Company provides certain installation services to customers utilizing independent third-party
contractors. The billings and expenses for these services are included in net sales and cost of goods sold, respectively. These billings and expenses were $6.0 million and $5.7 million for the twenty-six weeks ended July 31, 2004 and July 26, 2003,
respectively, and $3.5 million and $3.4 million for the thirteen weeks ended July 31, 2004 and July 26, 2003, respectively.



A customer claims reserve and allowance for product returns is established based upon historical claims experience as a percent of gross sales. The
allowance for customer claims is recorded upon shipment of goods and is recorded as a reduction of sales. While we believe the customer claims reserve and allowance for product returns is adequate and the judgment applied is appropriate based upon
historical experience for these items, actual amounts determined to be due and payable could differ and additional allowances may be required.

The Companys
non-compete with its former parent was being amortized over a seven-year period using the double-declining balance method and was fully amortized as of January 31, 2004. The patent is being amortized over an eleven-year period using the
straight-line method. The supply agreement is being amortized over a three-year period using the straight-line method. In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2003, CAF Extrusion, Inc. (Extrusion), a wholly-owned subsidiary, recorded a non-cash
impairment charge of $1.6 million, net of tax, related to the supply agreement with the seller. The impairment charge was to reduce the net carrying value of the supply agreement to its fair value.

9. Stock Based Compensation



As of July 31, 2004, the Company had one stock-based employee compensation plan, which is described more fully in Note 13 of
the audited consolidated financial statements included in the Companys Form 10-K for the year ended January 31, 2004, which was filed in May 2004 with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Company accounts for this plan under the
recognition and measurement principles of APB Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and related interpretations. The Company accounts for these options as variable options and records expense based on increases and
decreases in the fair market value of the Companys common stock at the end of each reporting period. These options vest only upon the achievement of certain earnings targets, as defined. As of July 31, 2004 and July 26, 2003, the Company had
not recorded any expense related to this plan as the Company had not achieved its earnings targets, and the fair market value of the Companys common stock has not increased from the date of grant. The following table illustrates the effect on
net income if the Company had applied the fair value recognition provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Statement No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, to the stock-based employee compensation
(in thousands).

10. Recent Accounting
Pronouncements



In May 2003, the FASB issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 150, Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of Both Liabilities and Equity (SFAS No. 150). SFAS No. 150 modifies the accounting for certain financial
instruments, that under previous guidance could be accounted for as either a liability or equity, to require liability treatment for those instruments in a companys statement of financial position. This statement is effective for our interim
periods beginning after December 15, 2003. The adoption of SFAS 150 did not have an impact on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.



In December 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 132 (revised 2003), Employers Disclosure about Pensions and Other Postretirement Benefits, an
amendment of FASB Statements No. 87, 88 and 106 (SFAS No. 132). The revision of SFAS No. 132 provides for additional disclosures including the description of the types of plan assets, investment strategy, measurement date(s), plan
obligations, cash flows and components of net periodic benefit cost recognized in interim periods. The revision of SFAS No. 132 is effective for our consolidated financial statements as of January 31, 2004 and did not have an impact on our financial
position, results of operations or cash flows.



11. Long-Term Debt



On August 18, 2004, the Company executed Amendment No. 3
(the Amendment) to its Senior Credit Facility. The Amendment provides for, among other things, 1) the transfer of certain of the broadloom manufacturing fixed assets located in Santa Ana, California to the Companys facility located
in Truro, Nova Scotia, 2) the disposal of and/or transfer to Collins & Aikman Floorcoverings, Inc. of substantially all of the remaining Santa Ana, California fixed assets and transfer all or substantially all of the accounts receivable,
inventory and other liquid current assets from its Monterey Carpets, Inc. legal entity to Collins & Aikman Floorcoverings, Inc., 3) the release of Monterey Carpets as a subsidiary guarantor under the

subsidiary guarantee agreement and the security agreement and any other loan documents to which it is a party, 4) the
exclusion from the calculation of covenants of the costs incurred in connection with the consolidation of up to $10.0 million, and 5) the reduction of the credit spread to Libor plus 2.75 on the Term B Loan. The Amendment further authorizes the
collateral agent to release any and all liens held by the collateral agent in or on the assets to be transferred from Santa Ana, California to Truro, Nova Scotia.



Effective May 1, 2004, the Company amended its Senior Credit Facility to revise certain covenants. The amended principal
financial covenants are as follows:



|                            |  |           |  |           |  |           |  |           |  |           
|--------------------------- |  | --------- |  | --------- |  | --------- |  | --------- |  | ----------
|                            |  | Q1        |  | Q2        |  | Q3        |  | Q4        |  | Thereafter
|Fixed charge coverage ratio |  | 1.00:1.00 |  | 1.00:1.00 |  | 1.00:1.00 |  | 1.10:1.00 |  | 1.10:1.00 
|Interest coverage ratio     |  | 1.75:1.00 |  | 1.75:1.00 |  | 1.85:1.00 |  | 2.00:1.00 |  | 2.25:1.00 



The Companys
fixed charge coverage ratio and interest coverage ratio were 1.49:1.00 and 2.29:1.00, respectively, at July 31, 2004. As is customary in debt agreements, in the event the Company is not in compliance with the covenants of the Senior Credit Facility,
the Company will also be subject to the provisions of a cross-default for the 9.75% Senior Subordinated Notes. The Company was in compliance with all covenants as of July 31, 2004 and expects to remain in compliance throughout fiscal 2004, although
no assurances to that effect can be given.



Total net
interest expense was $5.2 million and $5.2 million for the thirteen weeks ended July 31, 2004 and July 26, 2003, respectively, which included minimal interest income. Total net interest expense was $10.3 and $10.6 million for the twenty-six weeks
ended July 31, 2004 and July 26, 2003, respectively, which included minimal interest income.



12. Segment Information



The Company has adopted SFAS No. 131, Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information (SFAS No. 131). This statement addresses reporting of operating segment information and disclosures about
products, services, geographic areas, and major customers. Management has reviewed the requirements of SFAS No. 131 concluding that the Company operates its business as two reportable segments: Floorcoverings and Extrusion.



Accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in the
summary of significant accounting policies. Performance of the segments is evaluated on Adjusted EBITDA, which represents earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization plus Chroma cash dividends and minority interest in income
(loss) of subsidiary, less equity in earnings of Chroma.



The Floorcoverings segment represents all floorcovering products. These products are six-foot roll carpet, modular carpet tile and tufted and woven broadloom carpet. The Extrusion segment represents the Companys extrusion plant, which
was acquired on May 8, 2002. Products in this segment are nylon and polypropylene extruded yarn.



No single customer amounted to or exceeded 10.0% of the Floorcovering segments sales for any period presented. The Extrusion segments largest
customer accounted for 15.8% and 37.0% of sales and its second largest customer accounted for 10.2% and 10.3% of sales in the thirteen weeks and twenty-six weeks ended July 31, 2004, respectively.

On August 11, 2004,
Monterey Carpets gave notice to The Dixie Group, Inc. (Dixie) that it has elected to terminate its supply arrangement with Chroma effective August, 2005. Chroma currently dyes and finishes substantially all of Monterey Carpets
carpet production and Dixies Fabrica Divisions carpet production and performs dyeing and finishing operations for other carpet mills. Under the terms of the partnership agreement, Monterey Carpets decision will effectively give
Dixie the option to acquire Monterey Carpets interest in the partnership for a nominal value and assume full control of Chromas operations when the supply agreement terminates.

15. Commitments & Contingencies



During March 2004, a jury found in favor of Employers Mutual Insurance Companies (EMC) related to alleged
violations of express oral warranty and implied warranty of fitness for particular purpose and awarded damages totaling $0.8 million. The Company has accrued the full judgment amount of $0.8 million as of January 31, 2004. During the thirteen and
twenty-six weeks ended July 31, 2004, the Company incurred approximately $0.0 million and $0.5 million, respectively, of legal expenses related to this lawsuit. The Company continues to deny liability and is evaluating its options, which include a
motion for a new trial. If the Company pursues those options and is unsuccessful, it will be required to pay the full judgment amount and related legal and professional fees. Subsequent to the end of the second quarter of fiscal 2004, the judgment
amount was reduced from $0.8 million to $0.6 million. However, the reduction may be appealed by EMC through September 20, 2004.



On August 10, 2004, the Company and its parent announced its intent to close its manufacturing facility in Santa Ana, California, and transfer the
production to its existing Truro, Nova Scotia, Canada, facility. The plan to close the facility was approved on August 9, 2004, and is expected to be complete by the end of the Companys first fiscal quarter in 2005. It is anticipated that
there will be one-time costs of approximately $6.4 million consisting of severance, moving, reinstallation, professional fees and other costs. In addition the Company anticipates capital expenditures of approximately $2.8 million related to the
move. No costs have been incurred or accrued as of July 31, 2004.



16.
Employee Benefit Plans



The Company maintains a defined
benefit program for its domestic employees, which was frozen during fiscal 2002. Accordingly, no new benefits are being accrued under the plan. Participant accounts are credited with interest at the rates defined by the plan. Company contributions
are based on computations by independent actuaries, although the Company may decide to make additional contributions to the plan beyond minimum funding requirements as is deemed appropriate by management. Plan assets at July 31, 2004 and January 31,
2004 were invested primarily in mutual funds and money market funds.



Net periodic pension cost for the thirteen weeks and twenty-six weeks ended July 31, 2004 and July 26, 2003 was comprised of the following components:

The 9.75% Notes of the Company are guaranteed by the Companys domestic subsidiaries. Effective August 18, 2004, Monterey Carpets, Inc. was released
as a guarantor. The guarantee of the guarantor subsidiaries is full and unconditional and joint and several and arose in conjunction with the Companys issuance of the 9.75% Notes on February 20, 2002 and the $109 million Senior Credit
Facility, which was amended by the Company on February 20, 2002, May 1, 2004 and August 18, 2004. The guarantees terms match the terms of the 9.75% Notes and the Senior Credit Facility. The maximum amount of future payments the guarantors
would be required to make under the guarantees as of July 31, 2004 is $214.4 million. This represents the principal amount outstanding of the Companys Senior Credit Facility, the 9.75% Notes and accrued interest on both obligations. The

18. Subsequent Events



On August 10, 2004, the Company and its parent announced
its intent to close its manufacturing facility in Santa Ana, California, and transfer the production to its existing Truro, Nova Scotia, Canada, facility. The plan to close the facility was approved on August 9, 2004, and is expected to be complete
by the end of the Companys first fiscal quarter in 2005. It is anticipated that there will be one-time costs of approximately $6.4 million consisting of severance, moving, reinstallation, professional fees and other costs. In addition the
Company anticipates capital expenditures of approximately $2.8 million related to the move. No costs have been incurred or accrued as of July 31, 2004.



On August 11, 2004, Monterey gave notice to Dixie that it has elected to terminate its supply arrangement with Chroma effective August 2005. Chroma
currently dyes and finishes substantially all of Montereys carpet production and Dixies Fabrica Divisions carpet production and performs dyeing and finishing operations for other carpet mills. Under the terms of the partnership
agreement, Montereys decision will effectively give Dixie the option to acquire Montereys interest in the partnership for a nominal value and assume full control of Chromas operations when the supply agreement terminates.

Item 2. Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations



The following discussion and analysis of the financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with and is qualified in its
entirety by reference to our consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes. Except for historical information, the discussions in this section contain forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Future results
could differ materially from these discussed below for many reasons. See Forward-Looking Statements.



GENERAL



Based on annual sales and brand recognition, Collins & Aikman Floorcoverings, Inc. (the Company), a Delaware corporation, is a leading
manufacturer of floorcovering products for the North American specified commercial carpet market. The Companys floorcovering products include (i) vinyl-backed six-foot roll carpet and modular carpet tile and (ii) high style tufted and woven
broadloom carpet. The Company designs, manufactures and markets its C&A, Monterey and Crossley brands under the Tandus name for a wide variety of end markets, including corporate offices, education, healthcare, government facilities and retail
stores. Because of the diversity of the Companys end markets, management believes its business tends to be less sensitive to economic downturns than many of its competitors, which rely more heavily on the corporate market. The ability to
provide a package of product offerings in various forms, coupled with flexible distribution channels, allows the Company to provide a wide array of floorcovering solutions tailored for each of its customers. The Company is headquartered
in Georgia, with additional locations in California, Canada, the United Kingdom, Singapore and China.



The Company is a wholly owned subsidiary of Tandus Group, Inc. (Tandus Group). Subsequent to a recapitalization transaction on January 25,
2001, investment funds managed by Oaktree Capital Management, LLC (Oaktree) and Banc of America Capital Investors (BACI) control a majority of the outstanding capital stock of Tandus Group.

Thirteen Weeks Ended July 31, 2004 As Compared with the Thirteen Weeks Ended July 26, 2003



Net Sales.Net sales for the thirteen weeks ended July 31, 2004 were
$99.6 million, an increase of 6.1% from the $93.9 million for the thirteen weeks ended July 26, 2003. Net sales of the Companys Floorcovering segment were $94.9 million for the thirteen weeks ended July 31, 2004 as compared to $86.7 million
for the thirteen weeks ended July 26, 2003, an increase of $8.3 million or 9.6%. The increase in the Floorcovering segments net sales was due to improved demand throughout the specified commercial market in the United States. Net sales of the
Extrusion segment were $4.7 million for the thirteen weeks ended July 31, 2004 as compared to $7.2 million for the thirteen weeks ended July 26, 2003, a decrease of $2.5 million or 34.8%. The reduction in sales for the Extrusion segment was due to
lower sales to the Extrusion segments two largest customers as well as increased usage by the Companys Floorcovering segment. The reduction was partially offset by increased sales to new and existing external customers as well as
increased usage by the Companys Floorcovering segment.



Cost of Goods Sold. Cost of goods sold was $60.6 million for the thirteen weeks ended July 31, 2004 as compared to $59.2 million in the thirteen weeks ended July 26, 2003. As a percentage of sales, costs of goods sold were 60.8% and
63.0% for the thirteen weeks ended July 31, 2004 and July 26, 2003, respectively. The percentage decrease was primarily due to the increased absorption of fixed manufacturing costs as a result of improved sales volume, increased usage of yarn from
the Companys Extrusion facility and cost manufacturing improvements.



Selling, General and Administrative Expenses.Selling, general and administrative expenses increased to $20.1 million for the thirteen weeks ended July 31, 2004, an increase of 3.1% from $19.5 million in the
thirteen weeks ended July 26, 2003. This increase was primarily due to increased salaries, taxes and benefits of $0.8 million, sampling and related costs of $0.6 million, commissions of $0.1 million, and currency exchange costs of $0.3 million,
partially offset by lower legal and professional expenses of $0.9 million and advertising and other of $0.2 million. As a percentage of sales, these expenses decreased to 20.2% from 20.7% in the prior year.



Amortization.Intangible asset amortization decreased to $0.8 million
for the thirteen weeks ended July 31, 2004 as compared to $1.5 million for the thirteen weeks ended July 26, 2003. The decrease was due to the Companys non-compete with its former parent being fully amortized as of January 31, 2004, and lower
amortization of the extrusion supply agreement due to the non-cash impairment charge during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2003.



Interest Expense. Net interest expense for the thirteen weeks ended July 31, 2004 and thirteen weeks ended July 26, 2003 was $5.2 million for both
periods, which included minimal interest income.



Income
Taxes. The Company had income tax expense of $5.4 million for the thirteen weeks ended July 31, 2004 as compared to $3.8 million for the thirteen weeks ended July 26, 2003. The increase was predominantly due to the higher profitability of the
Company during the second quarter of fiscal 2004.



Net
Income. Net income for the thirteen weeks ended July 31, 2004 increased to $8.0 million compared to $5.1 million in the thirteen weeks ended July 26, 2003. This was due to the combined result of the factors described above.



Adjusted EBITDA.Adjusted EBITDA represents earnings before interest,
taxes, depreciation, amortization plus Chroma cash dividends and minority interest in income of subsidiary less equity in earnings of Chroma. Adjusted EBITDA for the thirteen weeks ended July 31, 2004 increased to $22.1 million from $18.2 million in
the thirteen weeks ended July 26, 2003. As a percentage of sales, Adjusted EBITDA was 22.2% in the thirteen weeks ended July 31, 2004 compared to 19.4% in the thirteen weeks ended July 26, 2003. The increase was principally due to the increased
sales volume. Adjusted EBITDA is presented because it is commonly used by certain investors and analysts to analyze a companys ability to service debt. The Company utilizes Adjusted EBITDA as (a) a benchmark for its annual budget and long
range plan, (b) a valuation method for potential acquisitions, and (c) a measure to determine compliance with senior credit facility debt covenants. Adjusted EBITDA is not a measure of financial performance under accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States and should not be

considered an alternative to operating income or net income as a measure of operating performance or to net cash provided
by operating activities as a measure of liquidity. Because Adjusted EBITDA is not calculated identically by all companies, the presentation in these statements may not be comparable to those disclosed by other companies.



A reconciliation of net income to Adjusted EBITDA is as follows:

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS



Twenty-Six Weeks Ended July 31, 2004 As Compared with the
Twenty-Six Weeks Ended July 26, 2003



Net Sales.Net sales for the twenty-six weeks ended July 31, 2004 were $177.3 million, an increase of 7.1% from the $165.5 million for the twenty-six weeks ended July 26, 2003. Net sales of the Companys Floorcovering segment were $164.9 million for
the twenty-six weeks ended July 31, 2004 as compared to $150.5 million for the twenty-six weeks ended July 26, 2003, an increase of $14.4 million or 9.6%. The increase in the Floorcovering segments net sales was due to improved demand
throughout the specified commercial market in the United States. Net sales of the Extrusion segment were $12.4 million for the twenty-six weeks ended July 31, 2004 as compared to $15.0 million for the twenty-six weeks ended July 26, 2003, a decrease
of $2.6 million or 17.3%. The reduction in sales for the Extrusion segment was due to lower sales to the Extrusion segments two largest customers as well as increased usage by the Companys Floorcovering segment. The reduction was
partially offset by increased sales to new and existing external customers.



Cost of Goods Sold. Cost of goods sold was $112.0 million for the twenty-six weeks ended July 31, 2004 as compared to $107.5 million in the twenty-six weeks ended July 26, 2003. As a percentage of sales, cost
of goods sold were 63.2% and 65.0%, respectively. The percentage decrease was primarily due to the increased absorption of fixed manufacturing costs as a result of improved sales volume, increased usage of the yarn from the Companys Extrusion
facility and manufacturing cost improvements.



Selling,
General and Administrative Expenses.Selling, general and administrative expenses for the twenty-six weeks ended July 31, 2004 were $41.1 million, an increase of 11.3% from $36.9 million in the twenty-six weeks ended July 26, 2003. The increase
was primarily due to increased salaries, taxes and benefits of $1.8 million, sampling and related costs of $0.9 million, commissions of $0.5 million, advertising and other of $0.2 million and currency exchange costs of $1.1 million, partially offset
by lower legal and professional expenses of $0.3 million. As a percentage of sales, these expenses increased to 23.2% from 22.3% in the prior year.



Amortization.Intangible asset amortization decreased to $1.5 million for the twenty-six weeks ended July 31, 2004 as compared to $3.1 million for
the twenty-six weeks ended July 26, 2003. The decrease was due to the Companys non-compete with its former parent being fully amortized as of January 31, 2004 and lower amortization of the Extrusion supply agreement due to the non-cash
impairment charge during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2003.

Interest Expense. Net interest expense for the twenty-six weeks ended July 31, 2004 and the
twenty-six weeks ended July 26, 2003 was $10.3 million and $10.6 million, respectively, which included interest income of $0.1 million and $0.1 million, respectively. The twenty-six weeks ended July 26, 2003 included a charge to interest expense of
$0.2 million to reflect the write-off of a pro-rata share of deferred financing costs associated with the prepayment of term debt from cash generated by operations.



Income Taxes. The Company has income tax expense of $6.0 million for the twenty-six weeks ended July 31, 2004 as
compared to $3.1 million for the twenty-six weeks ended July 26, 2003. The increase was predominantly due to the higher profitability of the Company during the first six months of the current fiscal year combined with tax benefits on foreign losses
which carry a full valuation allowance.



Net
Income. Net income for the twenty-six weeks ended July 31, 2004 increased to $7.2 million from $5.0 million in the twnety-six weeks ended July 26, 2003. This was due to the combined result of the factors described above.



Adjusted EBITDA.Adjusted EBITDA represents earnings before interest,
taxes, depreciation, amortization, plus Chroma cash dividends and minority interest in income (loss) of subsidiary less equity in earnings of Chroma. Adjusted EBITDA for the twenty-six weeks ended July 31, 2004 increased to $30.2 million from $28.4
million in the twenty-six weeks ended July 26, 2003. As a percentage of sales, Adjusted EBITDA was 17.0% in the twenty-six weeks ended July 26, 2003 compared to 17.2% in the twenty-six weeks ended July 26, 2003. The increase was principally due to
the increased sales volume in the twenty-six weeks ended July 31, 2004, although it was partially offset by a special dividend of $1.8 million distributed by Chroma in the twenty-six weeks ended July 26, 2003. Adjusted EBITDA is presented because it
is commonly used by certain investors and analysts to analyze a companys ability to service debt. The Company utilizes Adjusted EBITDA as (a) a benchmark for its annual budget and long range plan, (b) a valuation method for potential
acquisitions, and (c) a measure to determine compliance with senior credit facility debt covenants. Adjusted EBITDA is not a measure of financial performance under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and should not be
considered an alternative to operating income or net income as a measure of operating performance or to net cash provided by operating activities as a measure of liquidity. Because Adjusted EBITDA is not calculated identically by all companies, the
presentation in these statements may not be comparable to those disclosed by other companies.



A reconciliation of net income to Adjusted EBITDA is as follows:

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES



The Companys principal uses of cash have historically been for operating expenses, working capital, capital
expenditures and debt repayment. The Company has financed its cash requirements through internally generated cash flows, borrowings and the offering of the senior subordinated notes.



Net cash provided by operating activities in the twenty-six weeks ended July 31, 2004 was $3.3 million compared to $2.4
million in the twenty-six weeks ended July 26, 2003. The change was due to the increased profitability of $2.2 million partially offset by higher working capital requirements of $1.4 million.



Net cash used in investing activities in the twenty-six weeks ended July 31,
2004 was $2.5 million compared to $1.8 million in the twenty-six weeks ended July 26, 2003. The increase in cash used in investing activities in the current year was primarily due to a special dividend having been declared from Chroma Systems in the
twenty-six weeks ended July 26, 2003, and no such special dividend in the twenty-six weeks ended July 31, 2004. Capital expenditures for the twenty-six weeks ended July 31, 2004 were $3.4 million compared to $4.1 million for the twenty-six weeks
ended July 26, 2003. The Company anticipates capital expenditures for the remainder of the year to be approximately $6.0 to $7.0 million.



Net cash used in financing activities for the twenty-six weeks ended July 31, 2004 was $1.8 million compared to $13.4 million in the twenty-six weeks
ended July 26, 2003. The decrease in cash used by financing activities was due primarily to lower prepayment amounts of the Senior Credit Facility and reduced dividends to the Companys parent during the twenty-six weeks ended July 31, 2004 as
compared to the twenty-six weeks ended July 26, 2003.



The
Company has significant indebtedness which, as of July 31, 2004, consists of $175.0 million of 9.75% senior subordinated notes due 2010, $31.0 million of senior term debt, $0.5 million in purchase money and other indebtedness and $1.2 million in
sinking fund bonds under Crossley. As of July 31, 2004, the Companys $50.0 million revolving line of credit had no borrowings outstanding and $2.2 million of letters of credit outstanding leaving total availability of $47.8 million. The
Company was in compliance with all covenants as of July 31, 2004.



The Companys semi-annual interest payments of the 9.75% Notes are due on each February 15 and August 15 through February 15, 2010. The amount due on each date is $8.5 million.



During the first quarter of fiscal 2004, the Company leased a facility to be
used for a carpet tile production facility in Suzhou, China. Products manufactured at this facility will be sold into mainland China and throughout southeast Asia. Funding of $3.0 million was provided during fiscal 2003 with additional $2.0 million
provided on August 6, 2004. Additional funding of up to $1.0 million may be required during the remainder of the year.



During March 2004, a jury found in favor of Employers Mutual Insurance Companies (EMC) related to alleged violations of express oral warranty
and implied warranty of fitness for particular purpose and awarded damages totaling $0.8 million. The Company has accrued the full judgment of $0.8 million as of January 31, 2004. During the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended July 31, 2004, the
Company incurred approximately $0.0 and $0.5 million, respectively, of legal expenses related to this lawsuit. The Company continues to deny liability and is evaluating its options, which include a motion for a new trial. If the Company pursues
those options and is unsuccessful, it will be required to pay the full judgment amount and related legal and professional fees. Subsequent to the end of the second quarter of fiscal 2004, the judgment amount was reduced from $0.8 million to $0.6
million. However, the reduction may be appealed by EMC through September 20, 2004.



The Companys ability to make scheduled payments of principal, interest, or to refinance its indebtedness, depends on its future performance, which, to a certain extent, is subject to general economic, financial,
competitive, and other factors beyond its control. However, there can be no assurance that the Companys business will generate sufficient cash flow from operations or that future borrowings will be available in an amount sufficient to enable
the Company to service its indebtedness or to make necessary capital expenditures. We periodically evaluate potential acquisitions of businesses, which complement our existing operations. Depending on various factors, including, among others, the
cash consideration required in such potential acquisitions, we may determine to finance any such transaction with existing sources of liquidity.

On August 18, 2004, the Company executed Amendment No. 3 to its Senior Credit Facility. The Amendment
provides for, among other things, 1) the transfer of certain of the broadloom manufacturing fixed assets located in Santa Ana, California to the Companys facility located in Truro, Nova Scotia, 2) the disposal of and/or transfer to Collins
& Aikman Floorcoverings, Inc. of substantially all of the remaining Santa Ana, California fixed assets and transfer all or substantially all of the accounts receivable, inventory and other liquid current assets from its Monterey Carpets, Inc.
legal entity to Collins & Aikman Floorcoverings, Inc., 3) the release of Monterey Carpets, Inc. as a subsidiary guarantor under the subsidiary guarantee agreement and the security agreement and any other loan documents to which it is a party, 4)
the exclusion from the calculation of covenants of the costs incurred in connection with the consolidation of up to $10.0 million and 5) the reduction of the credit spread to Libor plus 2.75 on the Term B Loan. The Amendment further authorizes the
collateral agent to release any and all liens held by the collateral agent in or on the assets to be transferred from Santa Ana, California to Truro, Nova Scotia.



Effective May 1, 2004, the Company amended its Senior Credit Facility to revise certain covenants. The amended principal
financial covenants are as follows:



|                            |  |           |  |           |  |           |  |           |  |           
|--------------------------- |  | --------- |  | --------- |  | --------- |  | --------- |  | ----------
|                            |  | Q1        |  | Q2        |  | Q3        |  | Q4        |  | Thereafter
|Fixed charge coverage ratio |  | 1.00:1.00 |  | 1.00:1.00 |  | 1.00:1.00 |  | 1.10:1.00 |  | 1.10:1.00 
|Interest coverage ratio     |  | 1.75:1.00 |  | 1.75:1.00 |  | 1.85:1.00 |  | 2.00:1.00 |  | 2.25:1.00 



The Companys
fixed charge coverage ratio and interest coverage ratio were 1.49:1.00 and 2.29:1.00, respectively, at July 31, 2004. As is customary in debt agreements, in the event the Company is not in compliance with the covenants of the Senior Credit Facility,
the Company will also be subject to the provisions of a cross-default for the 9.75% Senior Subordinated Notes. The Company was in compliance with all covenants as of July 31, 2004 and expects to remain in compliance throughout fiscal 2004, although
no assurances to that effect can be given.



On August
10, 2004, the Company and its parent announced its intent to close its manufacturing facility in Santa Ana, California, and transfer the production to its existing Truro, Nova Scotia, Canada, facility. The plan to close the facility was approved on
August 9, 2004, and is expected to be complete by the end of the Companys first fiscal quarter in 2005. It is anticipated that there will be one-time costs of approximately $6.4 million consisting of severance, moving, reinstallation,
professional fees and other costs. In addition the Company anticipates capital expenditures of approximately $2.8 million related to the move. No costs have been incurred or accrued as of July 31, 2004.



Management believes that cash generated by its operations and availability
under its $50.0 million revolving credit line will be sufficient to fund the Companys current commitments and planned requirements.



EFFECTS OF INFLATION



The impact of inflation on the Companys operations has not been significant in recent years. However, there can be no assurance that a high rate of
inflation in the future would not have an adverse effect on the Companys operating results.



SEASONALITY



The
Company experiences seasonal fluctuations, with generally lower sales and gross profit in the first and fourth quarters of the fiscal year and higher sales and gross profit in the second and third quarters of the fiscal year. The seasonality of
sales and profitability is primarily a result of disproportionately higher education end market sales during the summer months.

RELIANCE ON PRIMARY THIRD-PARTY SUPPLIER OF NYLON YARN



Invista, Inc. (Invista) currently supplies a majority of the
Companys requirements for nylon yarn, the principal raw material used in the Companys floorcovering products. The unanticipated termination or interruption of the supply arrangement with Invista could have a material adverse effect on
the Company because of the cost and delay associated with shifting this business to another supplier. Historically, the Company has not experienced significant interruptions in the supply of nylon yarn from Invista, although no assurances can be
given.



RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS



In May 2003, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 150, Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of Both Liabilities and Equity (SFAS No. 150). SFAS No. 150 modifies the accounting for certain financial instruments, that under previous
guidance could be accounted for as either a liability or equity, to require liability treatment for those instruments in a companys statement of financial position. This statement is effective for our interim periods beginning after December
15, 2003. The adoption of SFAS 150 did not have an impact on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.



In December 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 132 (revised 2003), Employers Disclosure about Pensions and Other Postretirement Benefits, an
amendment of FASB Statements No. 87, 88 and 106 (SFAS No. 132). The revision of SFAS No. 132 provides for additional disclosures including the description of the types of plan assets, investment strategy, measurement date(s), plan
obligations, cash flows and components of net periodic benefit cost recognized in interim periods. The revision of SFAS No. 132 is effective for our consolidated financial statements as of January 31, 2004 and did not have an impact on our financial
position, results of operations or cash flows.



CRITICAL ACCOUNTING
POLICIES



The Companys significant accounting
policies are more fully described in Note 3 to the audited consolidated financial statements included in the Companys Form 10-K for the year neded January 31, 2004, which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission in May 2004.
Certain of the Companys accounting policies require the application of significant judgment by management in selecting the appropriate assumptions for calculating financial estimates. By their nature, these judgments are subject to an inherent
degree of uncertainty and actual results could differ from these estimates. These judgments are based on the Companys historical experience, terms of existing contracts, current economic trends in the industry, information provided by our
customers, and information available from outside sources, as appropriate. The Companys significant accounting policies include:



Revenue Recognition. Revenue is recognized when goods are shipped, which is when legal title passes to the customer. For product installations subject to customer
approval, revenue is recognized upon acceptance by the customer. The Company provides certain installation services to customers utilizing independent third-party contractors. The billings and expenses for these services are included in net sales
and cost of goods sold, respectively.



A customer claims reserve and
allowance for product returns is established based upon historical claims experience as a percent of gross sales as of the balance sheet date. The allowance for customer claims is recorded upon shipment of goods and is recorded as a reduction of
sales. While we believe that our customer claims reserve and allowance for product returns is adequate and that the judgment applied is appropriate based upon our historical experience for these items, actual amounts determined to be due and payable
could differ and additional allowances may be required.



Impairment of
Goodwill and Indefinite Lived Intangible Assets. In addition to the annual impairment tests required by SFAS No. 142, the Company may periodically evaluate the carrying value of its goodwill and indefinite lived intangible asset for potential
impairment. Judgments regarding the existence of impairment



31

##### Table of Contents

indicators are based on legal factors, market conditions and operational performance. Future events could cause the
Company to conclude that impairment indicators exist and that goodwill and indefinite lived intangible asset associated with acquired businesses is impaired. Any resulting impairment loss could have a material adverse impact on the Companys
financial condition and results of operations.



Accounts Receivable
Allowances. The Company provides allowances for expected cash discounts, returns, claims and doubtful accounts based upon historical experience and periodic evaluation of the financial condition of the Companys customers and collectability
of the Companys accounts receivable. If the financial condition of the Companys customers were to deteriorate, resulting in an impairment of their ability to pay their debts, allowances recorded in the Companys financial statements
may not be adequate.



Inventory Reserves. Inventories are stated at the
lower of cost or market. Cost is determined using the first-in, first-out, method. Reserves are established based on percentage markdowns applied to inventories aged for certain time periods and size of lot.



Income Taxes. The Company uses the liability method in accounting for income taxes.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recorded for temporary differences between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and their reported amounts in the consolidated financial statements using statutory rates. The effect on deferred tax assets
and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in the results of operations in the period that includes the rate change.



FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS



The Company may from time to time make written and oral forward-looking statements. Written forward-looking statements may appear in documents filed with
the Securities and Exchange Commission, in press releases and in reports to shareholders. The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 contains a safe harbor for forward-looking statements. The Company relies on this safe harbor in making
such disclosures. All statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q as to future expectations and financial results including, but not limited to, statements containing the words plans, believes,
intend, anticipates, expects, projects, should, will and similar expressions, should be considered forward-looking statements subject to the safe harbor. The forward-looking
statements are based on managements current beliefs and assumptions about expectations, estimates, strategies and projections for the Company. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve risks, uncertainties and
assumptions that are difficult to predict. Therefore, actual outcomes and results may differ materially from what is expressed or forecasted in such forward-looking statements. The Company undertakes no obligation to update publicly any
forward-looking statements whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. The risks, uncertainties and assumptions regarding forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, product demand and market acceptance risks;
product development risks, such as delays or difficulties in developing, producing and marketing new products; the impact of competitive products, pricing and advertising constraints resulting from the financial condition of the Company, including
the degree to which the Company is leveraged; cycles in the construction and renovation of commercial and institutional buildings; failure to retain senior executives and other qualified personnel; unanticipated termination or interruption of the
Companys arrangement with its primary third-party supplier of nylon yarn; debt service requirements and restrictions under credit agreements and indentures; general economic conditions in the United States and in markets outside of the United
States served by the Company; government regulations; risks of loss of material customers; environmental matters; and other risks described in the Companys Securities and Exchange Commission filings.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk



Market risk is the potential loss arising from adverse changes in market rates and prices, such as foreign currency exchange and interest rates. Although
we are not subject to material foreign currency exchange risk, we are exposed to changes in interest rates. Other than the 9.75% Notes, substantially all of our debt is variable rate debt. Therefore, interest rate changes generally do not affect the
fair market value of such debt but do impact future earnings and cash flows, assuming other factors are held constant. Conversely, for fixed rate debt, interest rate changes do not impact future cash flows and earnings, but do impact the fair market
value of such debt, assuming other factors are held constant. At July 31, 2004, we had variable rate debt of $31.2 million and fixed rate debt of $176.4 million. The variable interest rate per annum applicable to borrowings under the Senior Credit
Facility is equal to the Companys choice of (a) an adjusted rate based upon LIBOR plus a Eurodollar margin or (b) an alternative base rate, as defined by the Senior Credit Facility, plus a base rate margin. The Eurodollar margin and the base
rate margin adjust quarterly on a sliding scale based on our leverage ratio for the immediately preceding four fiscal quarters. The impact on our results of operations of a one-point change on the outstanding balance of our term loan as of the
twenty-six weeks ended July 31, 2004 would be approximately $0.2 million annually, net of tax.



Item 4. Controls and Procedures



As of July 31, 2004, the Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the Companys Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, of the design and operation of the Companys
disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Exchange Act Rule 13a-15. Based on this evaluation, the Companys Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Companys disclosure controls and procedures are
effective for gathering, analyzing and disclosing the information the Company is required to disclose in the reports it files under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, within the time periods specified in the SECs rules and forms. The Chief
Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer also concluded that the Companys disclosure controls and procedures are effective in timely alerting them to material information relating to the Company required to be included in the
Companys periodic SEC filings. In connection with the new rules, the Company is in the process of further reviewing and documenting its disclosure controls and procedures, including its internal controls and procedures for financial reporting,
and may from time to time make changes designed to enhance their effectiveness and to ensure that the Companys systems evolve with its business.



There have been no significant changes in the Companys internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect internal controls subsequent to the
date of this evaluation.



PART II Other Information



Item 1. Legal Proceedings



During
March 2004, a jury found in favor of Employers Mutual Insurance Companies (EMC) related to alleged violations of express oral warranty and implied warranty of fitness for particular purpose and awarded damages totaling $0.8 million. The
Company has accrued the full judgment amount of $0.8 million as of January 31, 2004. During the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended July 31, 2004, the Company incurred approximately $0.0 million and $0.5 million, respectively, of legal expenses
related to this lawsuit. The Company continues to deny liability and is evaluating its options, which include a motion for a new trial. If the Company pursues those options and is unsuccessful, it will be required to pay the full judgment amount and
related legal and professional fees. Subsequent to the end of the second quarter of fiscal 2004, the judgment amount was reduced from $0.8 million to $0.6 million. However, the reduction may be appealed by EMC through September 20, 2004.
