FLEXSTEEL INDUSTRIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) 1. These consolidated financial statements do not include certain information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements. However, in the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included and are of a normal recurring nature. Operating results for the six-month period ended December 31, 2002 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2003. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS - Flexsteel Industries, Inc. (the Company) manufactures a broad line of upholstered furniture for residential, recreational vehicle and commercial seating use. Products include sofas, love seats, chairs, reclining and rocker-reclining chairs, swivel rockers, sofa beds, and convertible bedding units. The Company has two wholly owned subsidiaries: (1) Desert Dreams, Inc. owns and leases a commercial building to an unrelated entity, and (2) Four Seasons, Inc. operates two retail furniture stores. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. 2. The inventories are categorized as follows: December 31, June 30, 2002 2002 ------------ ------------ Raw materials.............................. $ 15,159,329 $ 15,623,962 Work in process and finished parts......... 8,294,030 8,092,398 Finished goods............................. 8,473,842 6,605,928 ------------ ------------ Total................. $ 31,927,201 $ 30,322,288 ============ ============ 3. EARNINGS PER SHARE - Basic earnings per share of common stock is based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during each period. Diluted earnings per share of common stock takes into effect the dilutive effect of potential common shares outstanding. The Company's only potential common shares outstanding are stock options, which resulted in a dilutive effect of 111,199 shares and 48,683 shares in quarters ended and 110,648 and 51,193 shares in the six months ended December 31, 2002 and 2001, respectively. The Company calculates the dilutive effect of outstanding options using the treasury stock method. Options to purchase 163,050 and 136,000 shares of common stock were outstanding during the three and six months ended December 31, 2002 and 2001, respectively, but were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share as their exercise prices were greater than the average market price of the common shares. 4. ACCOUNTING DEVELOPMENTS - In August 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 144, ACCOUNTING FOR THE IMPAIRMENT OR DISPOSAL OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS. SFAS No. 144 addresses financial accounting and reporting for the impairment or disposal of long-lived assets and supersedes SFAS No. 121, ACCOUNTING FOR THE IMPAIRMENT OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS AND FOR LONG-LIVED ASSETS TO BE DISPOSED OF, along with certain other reporting standards. SFAS No. 144 was effective for the Company on July 1, 2002. The adoption of SFAS No. 144 did not have a material impact on the Company's financial position or results of operations. In April 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 145, RESCISSION OF FASB STATEMENTS No. 4, 44, And 64, AMENDMENT OF FASB STATEMENT NO. 13, AND TECHNICAL CORRECTIONS. SFAS No. 145 was effective for the Company on July 1, 2002. The adoption of the technical corrections contained in SFAS No. 145 did not have a material impact on the Company's financial position or results of operations.

In June 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 146, ACCOUNTING FOR COSTS ASSOCIATED WITH EXIT OR DISPOSAL ACTIVITIES. SFAS No. 146 addresses financial accounting and reporting for costs associated with exit or disposal activities and nullifies Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) Issue No. 94-3, LIABILITY RECOGNITION FOR CERTAIN EMPLOYEE TERMINATION BENEFITS AND OTHER COSTS TO EXIT AN ACTIVITY (INCLUDING CERTAIN COSTS INCURRED IN A RESTRUCTURING). SFAS No. 146 requires that a liability for a cost associated with an exit or disposal activity be recognized when the liability is incurred. Under EITF 94-3, a liability for an exit cost was recognized at the date of an entity's commitment to an exit plan. SFAS No. 146 will be effective for exit or disposal activities that are initiated by the Company after December 31, 2002. In November 2002, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. 45, GUARANTOR'S ACCOUNTING AND DISCLOSURE REQUIREMENTS FOR GUARANTEES, INCLUDING INDIRECT GUARANTEES OF INDEBTEDNESS OF OTHERS (FIN 45). FIN 45 clarifies the requirements for a guarantor's accounting for and disclosure of certain guarantees issued and outstanding. The initial recognition and initial measurement provisions of FIN 45 are applicable to guarantees issued or modified after December 31, 2002. The disclosure requirements of FIN 45 are effective for financial statements of interim or annual periods ending after December 15, 2002 (see Note 6). In December 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 148, ACCOUNTING FOR STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION-TRANSITION AND DISCLOSURE, WHICH AMENDS SFAS NO. 123, ACCOUNTING FOR STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION. SFAS No. 148 provides alternative methods of transition for a voluntary change to the fair value based method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation. In addition, SFAS No. 148 amends the disclosure requirement of SFAS No. 123 to require more prominent and more frequent disclosures in financial statements of the effects of stock-based compensation. The transition guidance and annual disclosure provisions of SFAS No. 148 are effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2002. The interim disclosure provisions are effective for financial reports containing condensed financial statements for interim periods beginning after December 15, 2002. The Company has elected to continue to apply Accounting Principles Board (APB) Opinion No. 25 and related interpretations in accounting for its stock option plans, as permitted under SFAS No. 123 and SFAS No. 148. Accordingly, no compensation cost has been recognized for its stock option plans. However, the Company has early adopted the disclosure provisions of SFAS No. 148 (see Note 5). 5. STOCK OPTIONS - The Company has stock option plans for key employees and directors that provide for the granting of incentive and nonqualified stock options. Under the plans, options are granted at an exercise price equal to the fair market value of the underlying common stock at the date of grant, and may be exercisable for up to 10 years. All options are exercisable when granted. At December 31, 2002, 593,400 shares were available for future grants. The Company applies Accounting Principles Board (APB) Opinion No. 25 and related interpretations in accounting for its stock option plans, as permitted under SFAS No. 123 and SFAS No. 148. Accordingly, no compensation cost has been recognized for its stock option plans. Had the compensation cost for the Company's incentive stock option plans been determined based on the fair value at the grant dates for awards under those plans consistent with the fair-value methodology of SFAS No. 123, the Company's net income and earnings per share would have been reduced to the following pro forma amounts:

The Company does not anticipate that additional options will be granted during fiscal 2003. 6. ACCRUED WARRANTY COSTS - The Company estimates the amount of warranty claims on sold product that may be incurred based on current and historical data. The actual warranty expense could differ from the estimates made by the Company based on product performance. The following table presents the changes in the companies product warranty liability: Accrued warranty costs at June 30, 2002................ $ 500,000 Payments made for warranty costs....................... (1,596,630) Accrual for product warranty........................... 1,596,630 ------------ Accrued warranty costs at December 31, 2002............ $ 500,000 ============ 7. RESTRUCTURING - The Company established an accrual for restructuring liabilities in fiscal 2002 for estimated employee separation costs and facility closing costs related to the closure of (1) the Elkhart, Indiana manufacturing facility and (2) a retail store. The accrual includes estimated employee severance, inventory write-offs, and lease commitments with no future benefit to the Company. Utilization of the accrual may differ from the initial restructuring charge as amounts are paid and become known to the Company. The following table summarizes the activity related to the restructuring charges during the six months ended December 31, 2002: Employee Facility Separation Closing Costs Costs Total ----------- ----------- ----------- Accrued restructuring costs at June 30, 2002 ...... $ 431,793 $ 1,268,816 $ 1,700,609 Restructuring (income) charges for the period ended December 31, 2002 ..............................

8. SEGMENTS - The Company operates in two reportable operating segments: (1) Seating Products and (2) Retail Stores. The Seating Products segment involves the manufacturing of a broad line of upholstered furniture for residential, recreational vehicle, and commercial seating markets. The Company's products are sold primarily throughout the United States by the Company's internal sales force and various independent representatives. The Retail Stores segment involves the operation of two retail furniture stores that offer the Company's residential seating products for sale directly to consumers. No single customer accounted for more than 10% of sales in either of the Company's two segments. Segment operating income is based on profit or loss from operations before interest income and expense, other income and income taxes. Segment information for the three-month periods ended December 31 is as follows: December 31, 2002 December 31, 2001 ---------------------------------------------- ----------------------------------------------- Seating Retail Seating Retail Products Stores Total Products Stores Total ------------- ----------- ------------- ------------- ------------ ------------- Net sales................... $ 71,857,995 $ 1,722,066 $ 73,580,061 $ 63,991,093 1,835,679 65,826,772 Operating income (loss)..... 3,895,579 (537,805) 3,357,774 1,649,544 (613,516) 1,036,028 Depreciation................ 1,235,082 28,524 1,263,606 1,353,059 47,599 1,400,658 Capital expenditures........ 1,465,652 1,465,652 112,666 39,883 152,549 Segment information for the six-month periods ended December 31 is as follows: December 31, 2002 December 31, 2001 ---------------------------------------------- ----------------------------------------------- Seating Retail Seating Retail Products Stores Total Products Stores Total ------------- ----------- ------------- ------------- ------------ ------------- Net sales................... $ 140,593,964 $ 3,005,473 143,599,437 $ 125,684,546 3,349,796 $ 129,034,342 Operating income (loss)..... 7,179,525 (803,442) 6,376,083 2,285,836 (1,193,515) 1,092,321 Depreciation................ 2,362,035 60,451 2,422,486 2,702,276 93,310 2,795,586 Capital expenditures........ 3,442,222 3,442,222 162,019 42,820 204,839 Assets...................... 119,839,054 1,382,879 121,221,933 106,958,167 2,180,456 109,138,623 9. RECLASSIFICATIONS - Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. These reclassifications had no impact on net income or shareholders' equity as previously reported. Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations Results of Operations: - ---------------------- GENERAL: The following analysis of the results of operations and financial condition of Flexsteel Industries, Inc. (the Company) should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes included elsewhere in this document. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES: The discussion and analysis of the Company's consolidated financial statements and results of operation are based on consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Preparation of these consolidated financial statements requires the use of estimates and judgments that affect the reported results. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

USE OF ESTIMATES - the Company uses estimates based on the best information available in recording transactions and balances resulting from business operations. Estimates are used for such items as collectability of trade accounts receivable, inventory valuation, depreciable lives, self-insurance programs, restructuring costs, warranties and income taxes. ALLOWANCE FOR DOUBTFUL ACCOUNTS - the Company establishes an allowance for doubtful accounts through review of open accounts, and historical collection and allowances amounts. The allowance for doubtful accounts is intended to reduce trade accounts receivable to the amount that reasonably approximates their fair value due to their short-term nature. The amount ultimately realized from trade accounts receivable may differ from the amount estimated in the financial statements based on collection experience and actual returns and allowances. INVENTORIES - the Company values inventory at the lower of cost or market. Raw steel, lumber and wood frame parts are valued on the last-in, first out (LIFO) method. Other inventories are valued on the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method. Changes in the market conditions could require a write down of inventory. SELF-INSURANCE PROGRAMS - the Company is self-insured for health care and most workers' compensation up to predetermined amounts above which third party insurance applies. The Company is contingently liable to insurance carriers under its comprehensive general, product, and vehicle liability policies, as well as some workers' compensation. Losses are accrued based upon the Company's estimates of the aggregate liability of claims incurred using certain actuarial assumptions followed in the insurance industry and based on Company experience. The actual claims experience could differ from the estimates made by the Company. RESTRUCTURING - the Company established an accrual for restructuring liabilities in fiscal 2002 for estimated employee separation costs and facility closing costs related to the closure of (1) the Elkhart, Indiana manufacturing facility and (2) a retail store. The accrual includes estimated employee severance, inventory write-offs, and lease commitments with no future benefit to the Company. Utilization of the accrual may differ from the initial restructuring charge as amounts are paid and become known to the Company. WARRANTY EXPENSE - the Company estimates the amount of warranty claims on sold product that may be incurred based on current and historical data. The actual warranty expense could differ from the estimates made by the Company based on product performance. REVENUE RECOGNITION - is upon delivery of product. Net sales consist of product sales and related delivery charge revenue, net of adjustments for returns and allowances. The actual amounts for returns and allowances could differ from the estimated amounts. The following table has been prepared as an aid in understanding the Company's results of operations on a comparative basis for the fiscal second quarter and six-month periods ended December 31, 2002 and 2001. Amounts presented are percentages of the Company's net sales.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE QUARTER - Net sales for the quarter ended December 31, 2002 increased by $7.8 million or 11.8% compared to the prior year quarter. Residential seating sales volume increased $3.1 million or 6.5%. Recreational vehicle seating sales increased $3.9 million or 28.5%. Commercial seating sales increased $0.7 million or 16.2%. The increase in net sales reflects some improvement in consumer confidence for residential seating and the industry improvement for vehicle seating products. During the quarter ended December 31, 2001, the Company recorded a charge of $0.9 million to cost of goods sold for estimated facility closing costs. Because the Company has been able to lease the facility to a third party that has employed most of the former employees, the Company has recorded a credit to cost of goods sold of $0.4 million during the quarter ended December 31, 2002. Excluding the facility closing costs described in the preceding paragraph, gross margin increased $2.8 million to $16.9 million or 23.0% of net sales in the current quarter, from $14.1 million or 21.4% in the prior year quarter. The increase in gross margin largely reflects higher sales and production volume, which resulted in improved absorption of fixed costs and, to a lesser degree, changes in product mix. Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of net sales were 19.0% and 18.7% for the current quarter and prior year quarter, respectively. During the quarter ended December 31, 2002 the Company finalized an agreement on a closed retail store, and as a result, has recorded a facility closing charge of $0.4 million to selling, general and administrative expense or 0.5% of net sales. In the current quarter, higher advertising costs were offset by improved fixed cost absorption on higher net sales. The above factors resulted in current fiscal quarter net income of $2.2 million or $0.35 per share compared to $0.7 million or $0.12 per share in the prior year quarter, a net increase of $1.5 million or $0.23 per share. Excluding the facility closing cost items described above, net income improved $0.9 million or $0.13 per share. All earnings per share amounts are on a diluted basis. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE LAST SIX MONTHS - Net sales for the six-months ended December 31, 2002 increased by $14.6 million or 11.3% compared to the prior year six-month period. Residential seating sales volume increased $7.3 million or 8.2%. Recreational vehicle seating sales increased $7.0 million or 23.0%. Commercial seating sales increased $0.2 million or 2.1%. The increase in net sales reflects improved industry performance for vehicle seating products and modest market share gains for residential products. Excluding the facility closing adjustments described above, gross margin increased $5.3 million to $32.2 million or 22.4% of sales in the current period from $26.9 million or 20.8% of sales in the prior year period. The increase in gross margin reflects changes in product mix and improved absorption of fixed costs from higher sales and production volume. Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of sales were 18.6% and 19.4% for the current year and prior year, respectively. The cost percentage decrease was primarily due to improved fixed cost absorption on the higher net sales. During the first quarter of fiscal 2003, the Company sold land adjacent to the Lancaster, Pennsylvania factory at a net gain (after tax) of $0.2 million or $0.04 per share. The above factors resulted in current fiscal year to date net income of $4.2 million or $0.67 per share compared to $0.9 million or $0.15 per share in the prior year period, an increase of $3.3 million or $0.52 per share from the prior year six-month period. Excluding the first quarter gain on sale of land and the facility closing adjustment described above, net income was $4.0 million or $0.63 per share, significantly higher than the prior year period of $1.5 million or $0.24 per share, an increase of $2.5 million or $0.39 per share.

All earnings per share amounts are on a diluted basis. Liquidity and Capital Resources: - -------------------------------- Working capital at December 31, 2002 was $65.0 million, which includes cash, cash equivalents and investments of $24.1million. Working capital increased by $2.8 million or 5% from June 30, 2002. During the six-month period ended December 31, 2002, cash, cash equivalents, and investments increased by $2.8 million. Operating activities provided $6.5 million in cash that was primarily used to invest $3.4 million for capital assets and to pay dividends of $1.6 million. The Company believes its low debt position coupled with adequate cash, cash equivalents, and investments adds a stabilizing effect to its operations. The Company's liquidity and capital resources provide it with the ability to react to opportunities as they arise, the ability to pay quarterly dividends to its shareholders, and ensures that productive capital assets that enhance safety and improve operations are purchased as needed.
