NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)
June 30, 2001


Note A. Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial
statements have been prepared in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles for interim financial information
and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of
Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the
information and footnotes required by generally accepted
accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the
opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal
recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation
have been included. Operating results for the six-month period
ended June 30, 2001, are not necessarily indicative of the
results that may be expected for the year ending December 29,
2001. For further information, refer to the consolidated
financial statements and footnotes included in the Company's
annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 30, 2000.


Note B. Inventories

Inventories of the Company and its subsidiaries are summarized as
follows:

June 30, December 30,
2001 2000
($000) (Unaudited)

Finished products $ 49,985 $ 48,990
Materials and work in process 32,011 46,497
LIFO allowance (10,908) (11,127)
$ 71,088 $ 84,360


Note C. Restructuring and Impairment Charge

During the quarter ended June 30, 2001, the Company recorded a
pretax charge of $24.0 million or $0.26 per diluted share for a
restructuring plan that involves consolidating physical
facilities, discontinuing low volume product lines, and
reductions of workforce. Costs related to the closedown of three
office furniture facilities, including Williamsport, Pennsylvania
and Tupelo, Mississippi, are included in this charge. The charge
includes $16.2 million for write-offs of machinery and equipment,
$3.1 million for severance arising from the elimination of
approximately 600 positions, $0.8 million for other employee
related costs, $2.2 million for idle facility costs, and $1.7
million for certain other expenses associated with the closing of
facilities. During the quarter ended June 30, 2001, $0.4 million
of pretax exit costs were paid and charged against the liability.
Note D.  Business Combinations

The Company completed the acquisitions of two small hearth
product distributors during the first quarter of 2001. On
January 12, 2001, the Company purchased the assets of M. H.
Seifert Construction Inc. for a purchase price of approximately
$1.9 million. On February 9, 2001, the Company purchased the
stock of Heating Alternatives, Ltd. for approximately $3.4
million. The excess of the consideration paid over the fair
value of the businesses or approximately $4 million was recorded
as goodwill and is being amortized on a straight-line basis over
20 years.

During the first quarter of 2001, management finalized its
integration plan related to the acquisition of its Hearth
Services division. Costs related to severance and consolidation
of facilities of approximately $2.4 million have been recorded
and reflected as an adjustment to goodwill. Of this amount, $1.1
million has been utilized as of June 30, 2001. Management
expects these activities to be completed within the year.


Note E. Comprehensive Income

The Company's comprehensive income consists of an unrealized
holding gain or loss on equity securities available-for-sale
under SFAS No. 115, "Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt
and Equity Securities," and nominal foreign currency adjustments.


Note F. Business Segment Information

Management views the Company as being in two business segments:
office furniture and hearth products with the former being the
principal business segment.

The office furniture segment manufactures and markets a broad
line of metal and wood commercial and home office furniture which
includes file cabinets, desks, credenzas, chairs, storage
cabinets, tables, bookcases, freestanding office partitions and
panel systems, and other related products. The hearth product
segment manufactures and markets a broad line of manufactured gas-,
pellet- and wood-burning fireplaces and stoves, fireplace
inserts, and chimney systems principally for the home.
For purposes of segment reporting, intercompany sales transfers
between segments are not material and operating profit is income
before income taxes exclusive of certain unallocated corporate
expenses. These unallocated corporate expenses include the net
cost of the Company's corporate operations, interest income, and
interest expense. Management views interest income and expense
as corporate financing costs and not as a business segment cost.
In addition, management applies one effective tax rate to its
consolidated income before income taxes so income taxes are not
reported or viewed internally on a segment basis.

No geographic information for revenues from external customers or
for long-lived assets is disclosed inasmuch as the Company's
primary market and capital investments are concentrated in the
United States.

Reportable segment data reconciled to the consolidated financial
statements for the three-month and six-month period ended June
30, 2001, and July 1, 2000, is as follows:

Note G.  New Accounting Standards

The Financial Accounting Standards Board finalized Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 141 "Business
Combinations" and No. 142 "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets"
on June 30, 2001. The Company will be required to adopt both
statements on December 30, 2001, the beginning of its 2002 fiscal
year.

SFAS No. 141 requires all business combinations initiated after
June 30, 2001, to be accounted for using the purchase method of
accounting. With the adoption of SFAS No. 142, goodwill is no
longer subject to amortization over its estimated useful life.
Rather, goodwill will be assessed for impairment by applying a
fair-value-based test. The Company does not anticipate
recognizing any impairment of goodwill upon adoption. The
Company will stop recording, on an annual basis, approximately $9
million of goodwill amortization upon adoption.

</TABLE>

Consolidated net sales for the second quarter ending June 30,
2001, were $444.2 million, a 12.8% decrease from the $509.6
million in the second quarter of 2000. The Company recorded a
restructuring and impairment charge in the second quarter.
Accounting for the one-time charge of $24.0 million against
pretax earnings, net income for the quarter was $4.2 million or
$0.07 per share. Net income, before the charge, was $19.6
million, a decrease of 16.4% from $23.4 million for the same
period a year ago. Prior to the one-time charge, net income per
share was $0.33 per diluted share compared to $0.39 per share in
second quarter 2000.

For the first six months of 2001, consolidated net sales
decreased 8.6% to $906.2 million from $991.2 million last year.
Net income was $37.8 million or $0.64 per share, excluding the
after-tax restructuring charge of $15.4 million or $0.26 per
share. Earnings per share before the one-time charge were down
20.0% from $0.80 for the same period a year ago. Net income
after the restructuring reserve was $22.5 million or $0.38 per
share.
For the second quarter of 2001, office furniture comprised 76% of
consolidated net sales and hearth products comprised 24%. Net
sales for office furniture were down 17.2%. Hearth products
sales increased 4.6% for the quarter compared to the same quarter
a year ago. Office furniture contributed 77% of second quarter
2001 consolidated operating profit before unallocated corporate
expenses and the one-time charge and hearth products contributed
23%.

The consolidated gross profit margin for the second quarter of
2001 increased to a new second quarter record of 34.1% compared
to 32.5% for the same period in 2000. This increase in margin
was due to improved price realization, cost containment, and
business simplification.

Selling and administrative expenses for the second quarter of
2001, excluding the one-time charge, were 26.8% of net sales
compared to 24.6% in the comparable quarter of 2000. This
increase was due to lower overall sales volume. Actual selling
and administrative dollars for the quarter, prior to the one-time
charge, decreased 5.2% or $6.5 million from the same quarter a
year ago.

During the quarter ended June 30, 2001, the Company recorded a
pretax restructuring charge of $24.0 million or $0.26 per diluted
share. The plan involves consolidating physical facilities,
discontinuing low volume product lines and reductions of
workforce. Costs related to the closedown of three office
furniture facilities, including Williamsport, Pennsylvania and
Tupelo, Mississippi, are included in this charge. The charge
includes $16.2 million of asset impairments per Financial
Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 121 "Accounting for the
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be
Disposed Of."

The remaining $7.8 million of the charge is classified as
restructuring expenses in accordance with EITF 94-3 of the
Financial Accounting Standards Board and Staff Accounting
Bulletin (SAB 100) of the Securities and Exchange Commission.
The charge includes $3.1 million for severance arising from the
elimination of approximately 600 positions, $0.8 million for
other employee related costs, $2.2 million for idle facility
costs, and $1.7 for certain other expenses associated with the
closing of facilities. During the quarter ended June 30, 2001,
$0.4 million of pretax exit costs were paid and charged against
the liability. The restructuring is expected to save
approximately $12 million annually.
Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of June 30, 2001, cash and short-term investments increased to
$35.1 million compared to a $3.2 million balance at year-end
2000. Net cash flows from operations contributed to the
improvement.

Net capital expenditures for the first six months of 2001 were
$23.9 million and primarily represent investment in new, more
efficient machinery and equipment. These investments were funded
by a combination of cash reserves, cash from operations and a
revolving credit agreement.

During the first quarter of 2001, the Company completed the
acquisition of two small hearth products distributors for a total
purchase price of approximately $5.3 million.

The Board of Directors declared a regular quarterly cash dividend
of $0.12 per share on its common stock on May 7, 2001, to
shareholders of record at the close of business on May 17, 2001.
It was paid on June 1, 2001, and represented the 185th
consecutive quarterly dividend paid by the Company.

For the first six months ended June 30, 2001, the Company
repurchased 922,837 shares of its common stock at a cost of
approximately $22.7 million or an average price of $24.63 per
share. As of June 30, 2001, approximately $90.9 million of the
Board's current repurchase authorization remained unspent.

On August 6, 2001, the Board of Directors declared a $0.12 per
common share cash dividend to shareholders of record on August
16, 2001, to be paid on August 31, 2001.

Looking Ahead

The Company anticipates that the remainder of 2001 will be
challenging in both sales and profits due to the current economic
environment. The Company is focused on optimizing their 2001
performance, while continuing to follow their long-term value
creation strategies.
