NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1 - CONDENSED FOOTNOTES
As contemplated by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) instructions to Form 10-Q, the following footnotes have been condensed and, therefore, do not contain all disclosures required in connection with annual financial statements. Reference should be made to the Company’s year-end financial statements and notes thereto contained in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 2, 2005, as filed with the Commission.
The financial information included in this report has been prepared by the Company, without audit. In the opinion of management, the financial information included in this report contains all adjustments (all of which are normal and recurring) necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods. Nevertheless, the results shown for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the full year. The January 2, 2005, consolidated balance sheet data was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.
The Company committed to a plan to exit its owned Re:Source dealer businesses (as well as a small Australian dealer business and a small residential fabrics business), and in the third quarter 2004 the Company began to dispose of several of the dealer subsidiaries. The results of operations and related disposal costs, gains and losses for these businesses are classified as discontinued operations for all periods presented.
Additionally, certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.

NOTE 3 – EARNINGS (LOSS) PER SHARE
Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) to common shareholders by the weighted average number of shares of Class A and Class B Common Stock outstanding during the period. Shares issued or reacquired during the period have been weighted for the portion of the period that they were outstanding. Diluted earnings (loss) per share is calculated in a manner consistent with that of basic earnings (loss) per share while giving effect to all potentially dilutive common shares that were outstanding during the period. The computation of diluted earnings (loss) per share does not assume conversion or exercise of securities that would have an anti-dilutive effect on earnings (loss) per share. For the three-month and nine-month periods ended October 2, 2005, outstanding options to purchase 194,000 and 529,000 shares of common stock were not included in the computation of diluted earnings (loss) per share as the exercise prices of these options were greater than the average market price of the common shares during these periods. For the three-month and nine-month periods ended October 3, 2004, outstanding options to purchase 696,000 and 696,000 shares of common stock were not included in the computation of diluted earnings (loss) per share as the exercise prices of these options were greater than the average market price of the common shares during these periods.
The following is a reconciliation from basic earnings (loss) per share to diluted earnings (loss) per share for the three-month and nine-month periods ended October 2, 2005, and October 3, 2004, respectively.

NOTE 4 - INCOME TAXES
As further described below in Note 12, the American Jobs Creation Act of 2004 provides for a special one-time tax deduction of 85 percent of certain foreign earnings that are repatriated. During the second quarter of 2005, the Company repatriated $10.5 million of such foreign earnings. Consequently, the Company recorded a provision for taxes on such foreign earnings of approximately $1.6 million in the second quarter of 2005 related to the repatriation. The Company did not repatriate any additional foreign earnings during the third quarter of 2005. The Company will continue to evaluate during the course of the year what additional amounts, if any, to repatriate and reinvest. The Company expects to be in a position to finalize its assessment by January 1, 2006.
NOTE 5 - SEGMENT INFORMATION
Based on the quantitative thresholds specified in Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 131, “Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information,” the Company has determined that it has four reportable segments: (1) the Modular Carpet segment, which includes its Interface, Heuga and InterfaceFLOR modular carpet businesses, (2) the Bentley Prince Street segment, which includes its Bentley and Prince Street broadloom, modular carpet and area rug businesses, (3) the Fabrics Group segment, which includes all of its fabrics businesses worldwide, and (4) the Specialty Products segment, which includes Pandel, Inc., a producer of vinyl carpet tile backing and specialty mat and foam products, and also includes the Company’s Intersept antimicrobial sales and licensing program. (The former segment known as the Re:Source Network, which primarily encompassed the Company’s owned Re:Source dealers that provided carpet installation and maintenance services in the United States, is now reported as discontinued operations in the accompanying consolidated condensed statements of operations.)
The accounting policies of the operating segments are the same as those described in the Summary of Significant Accounting Policies contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 2, 2005, as filed with the Commission. Segment amounts disclosed are prior to any elimination entries made in consolidation, except in the case of Net Sales, where intercompany sales have been eliminated. The chief operating decision maker evaluates performance of the segments based on operating income. Costs excluded from this profit measure primarily consist of allocated corporate expenses, interest/other expense and income taxes. Corporate expenses are primarily comprised of corporate overhead expenses. Assets not identifiable to any individual segment are corporate assets, which are primarily comprised of cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments, intangible assets and intercompany amounts, which are eliminated in consolidation.

NOTE 6 - LONG-TERM DEBT
Under the Company’s revolving credit facility, the maximum aggregate amount of loans and letters of credit available to the Company at any one time is $100 million, subject to a borrowing base limitation. The revolving credit facility matures on October 1, 2007. The revolving credit facility includes a domestic U.S. Dollar syndicated loan and letter of credit facility up to the lesser of (1) $100 million, or (2) a borrowing base equal to the sum of specified percentages of eligible accounts receivable, finished goods inventory and raw materials inventory in the U.S. (the percentages and eligibility requirements for the domestic borrowing base are specified in the credit facility), less certain reserves. Any advances to the Company or Interface Europe B.V. under the domestic loan facility will reduce borrowing availability under the entire revolving credit facility. The revolving credit facility also includes a multicurrency syndicated loan and letter of credit facility in British Pounds and Euros of up to the lesser of (1) the equivalent of U.S. $15 million, or (2) a borrowing base equal to the sum of specified percentages of eligible accounts receivable and finished goods inventory of Interface Europe, Ltd. and certain of its subsidiaries (the percentages and eligibility requirements for the multicurrency borrowing base are specified in the credit facility), less certain reserves. Any advances under the multicurrency loan facility will reduce borrowing availability under the domestic loan facility.
Interest on borrowings and letters of credit under the revolving credit facility is charged at varying rates computed by applying a margin (ranging from 0.0-3.5%) over a baseline rate (such as the prime interest rate or LIBOR), depending on the type of borrowing and the Company’s fixed charge coverage ratio. In addition, the Company pays an unused line fee on the facility ranging from 0.375-1.0%, depending on the Company’s fixed charge coverage ratio. The revolving credit facility is secured by substantially all of the assets of Interface, Inc. and its domestic subsidiaries (subject to exceptions for certain immaterial subsidiaries), including all of the stock of its domestic subsidiaries and up to 65% of the stock of its first-tier material foreign subsidiaries. The multicurrency loan facility is secured by substantially all of the assets of Interface Europe, Ltd. and its material subsidiaries. Those collateral documents provide that, if an event of default occurs under the revolving credit facility, the lenders’ collateral agent may, upon the request of the specified percentage of lenders, exercise remedies with respect to the collateral that include foreclosing mortgages on the Company’s real estate assets, taking possession of or selling its personal property assets, collecting its accounts receivable, or exercising proxies to take control of the pledged stock of its domestic and first-tier material foreign subsidiaries.
On June 14, 2005, the Company amended its revolving credit facility. The amendment, among other things, (1) changed the domestic borrowing base calculation to increase the amount of borrowing availability, and (2) changed a negative covenant to allow the Company to repay or repurchase up to $25 million of its senior or senior subordinated notes.
On September 30, 2005, the Company again amended its revolving credit facility to allow certain foreign subsidiaries to incur a limited amount of indebtedness and liens against property without using the general “catch-all” baskets contained in such covenants.
The Company is currently in compliance under the revolving credit facility and anticipates that it will remain in compliance with the covenants.
As of October 2, 2005, $16.1 million in borrowings (which includes $1.5 million of short-term borrowings) at a weighted-average interest rate of 6.8% and $16.6 million in letters of credit were outstanding under the revolving credit facility. As of October 2, 2005, the Company could have incurred $67.2 million of additional borrowings under its revolving credit facility.
As of October 2, 2005, the estimated fair values (based on then-current market prices) of the 9.5% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2014, the 10.375% Senior Notes due 2010 and the 7.3% Senior Notes due 2008 were $139.0 million, $194.3 million and $153.0 million, respectively.
NOTE 7 - STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
The Company uses the intrinsic value method of accounting for employee stock options in accordance with Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees,” as allowed under the provisions of SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation.” Compensation expense related to stock option plans was not material for the three-month or nine-month periods ended October 2, 2005, and October 3, 2004, respectively.
The following table includes disclosures required by SFAS No. 123, as amended by SFAS No. 148, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation - Transition and Disclosure,” and illustrates the effect on net income (loss) and earnings (loss) per share as if the Company had applied the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS No. 123:

NOTE 9 - DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS
The Company committed to a plan to exit its owned Re:Source dealer businesses, and in the third quarter of 2004 the Company began to dispose of several of the dealer subsidiaries. Therefore, the results of operations for the owned Re:Source dealer businesses, as well as the Company’s small Australian dealer and small residential fabrics businesses that management also decided to exit, are reported as discontinued operations. In connection with this action, the Company also has recorded write-downs for the impairment of assets and goodwill of $21.0 million ($3.5 million of which was recorded in 2005) and $29.0 million, respectively.
-11-
The Company sold nine of the fifteen dealer businesses that it owned at the time it committed to the exit activities. Eight of the nine businesses were sold to either the general managers of the respective businesses or an entity in which the general manager participated. The Company has terminated all ongoing operations of the other six owned dealer businesses, and in some cases is completing their wind-down through subcontracting arrangements. The Company recorded an after tax loss of $1.9 million (none of which was recorded in the third quarter of 2005) in the first nine months of 2005 related to Re:Source dealer dispositions.
Summary operating results for the discontinued operations are as follows:

NOTE 12 - RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In August 2005, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued FASB Staff Position (“FSP”) No. 123R-1, “Classification and Measurement of Freestanding Financial Instruments Originally Issued in Exchange for Employee Services under FASB Statement No. 123R.” In this FSP, the FASB decided to defer the requirements in SFAS No. 123 (Revised 2004), “Share-Based Payment”, that make a freestanding financial instrument subject to the recognition and measurement requirements of other generally accepted accounting principles when the rights conveyed by the instrument are no longer dependent on the holder being an employee. The guidance in this FSP should be applied upon initial adoption of SFAS No. 123R. The Company does not believe that application of guidance in this FSP will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.
The FASB has issued a FSP amending AICPA Statement of Position (“SOP”) No. 78-9, “Accounting for Investments in Real Estate Ventures”. Specifically, the FASB issued FSP SOP No. 78-9-1, “Interaction of AICPA Statement of Position 78-9 and EITF Issue No. 04-5.” The amendment was necessary because the consensus reached in EITF Issue No. 04-5, “Determining Whether a General Partner, or the General Partners as a Group, Controls a Limited Partnership or Similar Entity When the Limited Partners Have Certain Rights,” conflicted with certain guidance in SOP No. 78-9. This FSP eliminates the concept of “important rights” and replaces it with the concepts of “kick-out rights” and “substantive participating rights” as defined in Issue 04-5. The FSP also clarifies that the effect of the rights held by minority partners on the assessment of control, and therefore consolidation, of a general partnership should be the same as the evaluation of limited partners’ rights in a limited partnership. The FSP notes that the consensus reached by the EITF applies to all industries, not just real estate ventures. The guidance in this FSP is effective after June 29, 2005 for general partners of all new partnerships formed and for existing partnerships for which the partnership agreements are modified. The FSP applies to general partners in all other partnerships effective no later than the beginning of the first reporting period in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2005. The Company does not believe that application of guidance in this FSP will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.
In July 2005, the FASB issued a FSP interpreting APB Opinion No. 18, “The Equity Method of Accounting for Investments in Common Stock.” Specifically, the FASB issued FSP APB No. 18-1, “Accounting by an Investor for Its Proportionate Share of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income of an Investee Accounted for under the Equity Method in Accordance with APB Opinion No. 18 upon a Loss of Significant Influence.” This FSP provides that an investor’s proportionate share of an investee’s equity adjustments for “other comprehensive income” should be offset against the carrying value of the investment at the time significant influence is lost. At that time, an investor would reduce its investment account, to no less than zero, with any balance remaining reflected in income. The guidance in this FSP is required to be applied to the first reporting period beginning after July 12, 2005. The Company does not believe that application of guidance in this FSP will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.
In June 2005, the FASB issued a FSP interpreting SFAS No. 150, “Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of Both Liabilities and Equity.” Specifically, the FASB issued FSP FAS No. 150-5, “Issuer’s Accounting under FASB Statement No. 150 for Freestanding Warrants and Other Similar Instruments on Shares That Are Redeemable.” This FSP addresses whether freestanding warrants and other similar instruments on shares that are redeemable (puttable or mandatorily redeemable) are subject to the requirements in SFAS No. 150, regardless of the timing of the redemption feature or the redemption price. The guidance in this FSP is required to be applied to the first reporting period beginning after June 30, 2005. If the guidance in the FSP results in changes to previously reported information, a cumulative effect adjustment would be required. The Company does not believe that application of guidance in this FSP will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.
In June 2005, the FASB issued FSP No. 143-1 (“FSP FAS No. 143-1”), “Accounting for Electronic Equipment Waste Obligations.” FSP FAS No. 143-1 addresses the accounting for obligations associated with the Directive 2002/96/EC on Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment adopted by the European Union (“EU”). FSP FAS No. 143-1 is effective upon the later of the first reporting period that ends after June 8, 2005, or the date that the EU-member country adopts the law. FSP FAS No. 143-1 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
In May 2005, the FASB issued SFAS No. 154, “Accounting Changes and Error Corrections – a replacement of APB No. 20 and FASB Statement No. 3.” SFAS No. 154 changes the requirements of accounting for and reporting a change in accounting principle and applies to all voluntary changes in accounting principle and changes required by an accounting pronouncement, in the event that the accounting pronouncement does not include specific transition provisions. SFAS No. 154 requires retrospective application to prior periods’ financial statements of changes in accounting principle, unless it is impracticable. SFAS No. 154 also requires that a change in the method of depreciation, amortization or depletion of long-lived, non-financial assets be accounted for as a change in accounting estimate effected by a change in accounting principle. The guidance contained in APB Opinion No. 20, “Accounting Changes,” for reporting the correction of an error was carried forward in SFAS No. 154 without change. SFAS No. 154 is effective for accounting changes and corrections of errors made in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2005. Accordingly, the Company will adopt SFAS No. 154 on January 2, 2006.

In March 2005, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation (“FIN”) No. 47, “Accounting for Conditional Asset Retirement Obligations – An Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 143” (“FIN 47”), which will result in (a) more consistent recognition of liabilities relating to asset retirement obligations, (b) more information about expected future cash outflows associated with those obligations, and (c) more information about investments in long-lived assets because additional asset retirement costs will be recognized as part of the carrying amounts of the assets. FIN 47 clarifies that the term “conditional asset retirement obligation” as used in SFAS No. 143, “Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations,” refers to a legal obligation to perform an asset retirement activity in which the timing and (or) method of settlement are conditional on a future event that may or may not be within the control of the entity. The obligation to perform the asset retirement activity is unconditional even though uncertainty exists about the timing and (or) method of settlement. Uncertainty about the timing and (or) method of settlement of a conditional asset retirement obligation should be factored into the measurement of the liability when sufficient information exists. FIN 47 also clarifies when an entity would have sufficient information to reasonably estimate the fair value of an asset retirement obligation. FIN 47 is effective no later than the end of fiscal years ending after December 15, 2005. The Company plans to adopt FIN 47 at the end of its 2005 fiscal year and does not believe that the adoption will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.
In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123R, “Share-Based Payment.” This statement is a revision to SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation,” and supersedes APB Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees.” This statement establishes standards for the accounting for transactions in which an entity exchanges its equity instruments for goods or services, primarily focusing on the accounting for transactions in which an entity obtains employee services in share-based payment transactions. Companies will be required to measure the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments based on the grant-date fair value of the award (with limited exceptions). That cost will be recognized over the period during which an employee is required to provide service – the requisite service period (usually the vesting period), in exchange for the award. The grant-date fair value of employee share options and similar instruments will be estimated using option-pricing models. If an equity award is modified after the grant date, incremental compensation cost will be recognized in an amount equal to the excess of the fair value of the modified award over the fair value of the original award immediately before the modification. SFAS No. 123R will be effective for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2005, due to the Securities and Exchange Commission’s Rule 2005-57, which amended the effective date of SFAS No. 123R. Accordingly, the Company will adopt SFAS No. 123R on January 2, 2006. The Company is currently evaluating the provisions of SFAS No. 123R and has not determined the impact that this Statement will have on its consolidated financial statements.
In December 2004, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position No. 109-1 (“FSP FAS No. 109-1”), “Application of FASB Statement No. 109, ‘Accounting for Income Taxes,’ to the Tax Deduction on Qualified Production Activities Provided by the American Jobs Creation Act of 2004.” The American Jobs Creation Act (“AJCA”) of 2004 introduces a special tax deduction of up to 9.0 percent (when fully phased-in), of the lesser of “qualified production activities income” or taxable income. FSP FAS 109-1 clarifies that this tax deduction should be accounted for as a special tax deduction in accordance with SFAS No. 109. FSP FAS No. 109-1 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
In December 2004, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position No. 109-2 (“FSP FAS No. 109-2”), “Accounting and Disclosure Guidance for the Foreign Earnings Repatriation Provision within the American Jobs Creation Act of 2004.” FSP FAS No. 109-2 will amend the existing accounting literature that requires companies to record deferred taxes on foreign earnings, unless they intend to indefinitely reinvest those earnings outside the U.S. This pronouncement will temporarily allow companies that are evaluating whether to repatriate foreign earnings under the AJCA to delay recognizing any related taxes until that decision is made. This pronouncement will also require companies that are considering repatriating earnings to disclose the status of their evaluation and the potential amounts being considered for repatriation. The AJCA provides for a special one-time tax deduction of 85 percent of certain foreign earnings that are repatriated. As described above in Note 4, during the quarter ended July 3, 2005, the Company repatriated $10.5 million of such foreign earnings. Consequently, the Company has recorded a provision for taxes on such foreign earnings of approximately $1.6 million in the second quarter of 2005 related to such repatriation. The Company will continue to evaluate during the course of the year what additional amounts, if any, to repatriate and reinvest. The Company expects to be in a position to finalize its assessment by January 1, 2006.
In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 153, “Exchanges of Nonmonetary Assets, an amendment of APB Opinion No. 29.” SFAS No. 153 addresses the measurement of exchanges of nonmonetary assets and eliminates the exception from fair value measurement for nonmonetary exchanges of similar productive assets and replaces it with an exception for exchanges that do not have commercial substance. This new standard is effective for nonmonetary asset exchanges occurring in fiscal periods beginning after June 15, 2005. The adoption of SFAS No. 153 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
In November 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 151, “Inventory Costs, an amendment of Accounting Research Bulletin No. 43, Chapter 4.” SFAS No. 151 clarifies the accounting for abnormal amounts of idle facility expense, freight, handling costs and wasted material. SFAS No. 151 is effective for inventory costs incurred during fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2005. The Company does not believe adoption of SFAS No. 151 will have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 13 – FOREIGN CURRENCY FORWARD CONTRACTS
During the third quarter of 2005, the Company (through its wholly-owned Australian subsidiary) entered into foreign currency forward contracts to hedge future purchases of raw materials for the next fourteen months commencing in November 2005, with a monthly notional value of $0.5 million. These forward contracts will be outstanding for one month and will be renewed monthly for the next fourteen months. The contracts will be in Australian dollars to hedge the risk against fluctuation in U.S. dollars. These hedges are considered highly effective in offsetting the cash flows of the Company’s raw materials (primarily yarn) cost and therefore the changes in fair value will be recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income. With each type of cash flow hedge, the settlement of the forecasted transaction will result in the reclassification into earnings of gains and losses that will be reported in accumulated comprehensive income (loss).
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Our discussions below in this Item 2 are based upon the more detailed discussions about our business, operations and financial condition included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 2, 2005, under Item 7 of that Form 10-K. Our discussions here focus on our results during the quarter ended, or as of, October 2, 2005, and the comparable period of 2004 for comparison purposes, and, to the extent applicable, any material changes from the information discussed in that Form 10-K or other important intervening developments or information since that time. These discussions should be read in conjunction with that Form 10-K for more detailed and background information.
Forward-Looking Statements
This report contains statements which may constitute “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended by the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Important factors currently known to management that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in forward-looking statements include risks and uncertainties associated with economic conditions in the commercial interiors industry as well as the risks and uncertainties discussed under the heading “Safe Harbor Compliance Statement for Forward-Looking Statements” included in Item 1 of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 2, 2005, which discussion is hereby incorporated by reference. The Company undertakes no obligation to update or revise forward-looking statements to reflect changed assumptions, the occurrence of unanticipated events or changes to future operating results over time.
Discontinued Operations
Over the past few years, our owned Re:Source dealer businesses, which were part of a broader network comprised of both owned and aligned dealers that sell and install floorcovering products, experienced decreased sales volumes and intense pricing pressure, primarily as a result of the economic downturn in the commercial interiors industry. As a result, we decided to exit our owned Re:Source dealer businesses, and in the third quarter of 2004 we began to dispose of several of our dealer subsidiaries. In accordance with SFAS No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets,” we have reported the results of operations for the owned Re:Source dealer businesses (as well as the results of operations of a small Australian dealer business and a small residential fabrics business that we also decided to exit), for all periods reflected herein, as “discontinued operations”. Consequently, our discussion of revenues or sales and other results of operations (except for net income or loss amounts), including percentages derived from or based on such amounts, excludes these discontinued operations unless we indicate otherwise.
These discontinued operations had net sales of $3.2 million and $34.2 million in the three-month periods ended October 2, 2005, and October 3, 2004, respectively, and had net sales of $30.0 million and $111.4 million in the nine-month periods ended October 2, 2005, and October 3, 2004, respectively (these results are included in our statements of operations as part of the “Loss from Discontinued Operations, Net of Taxes”). Loss from operations of these businesses, net of tax, was $0.2 million and $4.1 million in the three-month periods ended October 2, 2005, and October 3, 2004, respectively, and was $11.3 million and $9.5 million in the nine-month periods ended October 2, 2005, and October 3, 2004, respectively. In the third quarter of 2004, the Company recorded write-downs, net of tax, for the impairment of assets and goodwill of $17.5 million and $29.0 million, respectively, to adjust the carrying value of the assets of these businesses to their net realizable value. During the first nine months of 2005, the Company recorded an additional write-down of $3.5 million (none of which was recorded in the third quarter of 2005), net of taxes, to further adjust the carrying value of the assets of these businesses to their net realizable value.
We sold nine of the fifteen dealer businesses that we owned at the time we committed to the exit activities, and in the first nine months of 2005 we recorded a loss of $1.9 million in connection with the disposal of certain of these businesses. Eight of the nine businesses were sold to either the general managers of the respective businesses or an entity in which the general manager participated. We have terminated all ongoing operations of the other six owned dealer businesses, and in some cases we are completing their wind-down through subcontracting arrangements.

General
During the quarter ended October 2, 2005, we had net sales of $243.9 million and net income of $5.1 million, or $0.10 per diluted share, compared with net sales of $222.8 million and a net loss of $47.8 million, or $0.92 per diluted share, in the comparable period last year. During the first nine months of fiscal 2005 (which was a 39-week period), we had net sales of $725.2 million and a net loss of $4.5 million, or $0.08 per diluted share, compared with net sales of $649.1 million and a net loss of $51.0 million, or $0.98 per diluted share, in the comparable period last year (which was a 40-week period). The 39 weeks versus the 40 weeks included in the respective 2005 and 2004 nine-month periods are a factor in certain of the comparisons reflected below.
Results of Operations
The following table presents, as a percentage of net sales, certain items included in our Consolidated Statements of Operations for the three-month and nine-month periods ended October 2, 2005, and October 3, 2004, respectively:

Modular Carpet Segment. For the three-month period ended October 2, 2005, net sales for the Modular Carpet segment increased $16.6 million (11.7%) versus the comparable period in 2004. For the nine-month period ended October 2, 2005 (which was a 39-week period), net sales for the Modular Carpet segment increased $63.6 million (15.4%) versus the comparable period in 2004 (which was a 40-week period). On a geographic basis, we experienced increases in net sales in the Americas, Europe and Asia-Pacific for both the three-month period (up 15.8%, 5.4% and 5.2%, respectively) and nine-month period (up 20.2%, 5.1% and 22.3%, respectively) ended October 2, 2005, versus the comparable periods in 2004. We also saw a significant increase in our sales into the education, retail, government and residential market segments in North America, which we attribute to our focus on those market segments, among others, as part of our strategy to increase product sales in non-corporate office market segments. Sales growth in Asia-Pacific is attributable in large part to a relatively good economic climate in that region.

Bentley Prince Street Segment. In our Bentley Prince Street segment, net sales for the three-month period ended October 2, 2005 increased $0.4 million (1.2%) versus the comparable period in 2004. For the nine-month period ended October 2, 2005, net sales increased $1.6 million (1.8%) versus the comparable period in 2004. These increases were attributable primarily to the improving corporate office market.
Fabrics Group Segment. For the three-month period ended October 2, 2005, net sales for our Fabrics Group segment increased $3.2 million (6.9%) versus the comparable period in 2004. For the nine-month period ended October 2, 2005, net sales increased $7.6 million (5.4%) versus the comparable period in 2004. These increases were attributable primarily to the improving corporate office market.
Specialty Products Segment. For the three-month period ended October 2, 2005, net sales for our Specialty Products segment increased $0.9 million (30.7%) versus the comparable period in 2004. For the nine-month period ended October 2, 2005, net sales increased $3.4 million (37.5%) versus the comparable period in 2004. These increases were attributable primarily to the improving corporate office market.
Cost and Expenses

For the three-month period ended October 2, 2005, our cost of sales increased $10.1 million (6.4%) versus the comparable period in 2004, primarily due to increased raw material costs ($6.6 million) and labor costs ($1.5 million) associated with increased production levels during the third quarter of 2005. Our raw materials costs in the third quarter 2005 were up an estimated 1-2% versus the same period in 2004, primarily due to increased prices for petrochemical products. As a percentage of net sales, cost of sales decreased to 68.6% for the quarter ended October 2, 2005, versus 70.6% for the comparable period in 2004. The percentage decrease was primarily due to the increased absorption of fixed manufacturing costs associated with increased production levels.
For the nine-month period ended October 2, 2005, our cost of sales increased $48.4 million (10.7%) versus the comparable period in 2004, primarily due to increased raw material costs ($31.9 million) and labor costs ($7.3 million) associated with increased production levels during the first nine months of 2005. Our raw materials costs in the first nine months of 2005 were up an estimated 5-6% versus the same period in 2004, primarily due to increased prices for petrochemical products. In addition, the translation of Euros into U.S. dollars resulted in an approximately $3.6 million increase in the cost of goods sold during the first nine months in 2005 compared with the same period in 2004. As a percentage of net sales, cost of sales decreased to 69.0% for the nine-month period ended October 2, 2005, versus 69.6% for the comparable period in 2004. The percentage decrease was primarily due to increased absorption of fixed manufacturing costs associated with increased production levels.
For the three-month period ended October 2, 2005, our selling, general and administrative expenses increased $6.4 million (12.9%) versus the comparable period in 2004. The primary components of this increase were: (1) $1.6 million in commission payments due to the increased level of sales in the third quarter of 2005; (2) $2.7 million of incremental sales and marketing expenses related to additional personnel, new branding activities, and new product introductions; and (3) $1.0 million in research and development costs. As a percentage of net sales, selling, general and administrative expenses increased to 23.0% for the quarter ended October 2, 2005, versus 22.3% for the comparable period in 2004. The percentage increase was primarily due to the incremental sales and marketing expenses this year.
For the nine-month period ended October 2, 2005, our selling, general and administrative expenses increased $14.2 million (9.4%) versus the comparable period in 2004. The primary components of this increase were: (1) $5.4 million in commission payments due to the increased level of sales in the first nine months of 2005; and (2) $8.0 million due to increased investments in global marketing campaigns across our modular businesses. As a percentage of net sales, selling, general and administrative expenses decreased to 22.9% for the nine-month period ended October 2, 2005, versus 23.4% for the comparable period in 2004. The percentage decrease was primarily due to (1) the increased absorption of the fixed portion of administrative costs as a result of improved sales volume, and (2) the realization of the success of our restructuring initiatives which continue to strengthen and streamline operations throughout the global organization.

Interest Expenses
For the three-month period ended October 2, 2005, interest expense remained flat at $11.4 million versus the comparable period in 2004. For the nine-month period ended October 2, 2005, interest expense decreased $0.3 million to $34.5 million, versus $34.8 million in the comparable period in 2004. This decrease was due primarily to the lower levels of debt outstanding on a daily basis during each of the first three quarters of 2005 versus the comparable periods in 2004, and was somewhat offset by an overall increase in interest rates when compared to the first three quarters of 2004.
Income Taxes
During the second quarter of 2005, we repatriated $10.5 million of foreign earnings, pursuant to provisions of the American Jobs Creation Act of 2004 which provide for a substantial reduction in U.S. federal taxes on such repatriated earnings. Consequently, we recorded a provision for taxes on such foreign earnings of approximately $1.6 million in the second quarter of 2005 related to the repatriation. We did not repatriate any additional foreign earnings during the third quarter of 2005. We will continue to evaluate during the course of the year what additional amounts, if any, to repatriate and reinvest. We expect to be in a position to finalize our assessment by January 1, 2006.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
General
At October 2, 2005, we had $32.2 million in cash, and we had $16.1 million in borrowings (which includes $1.5 million of short-term borrowings) and $16.6 million in letters of credit outstanding under our revolving credit facility. As of October 2, 2005, we could have incurred $67.2 million of additional borrowings under our revolving credit facility.
Analysis of Cash Flows
Our primary sources of cash for the nine-month period ended October 2, 2005, were (1) $14.6 million of domestic borrowings under our revolving credit facility, (2) $12.2 million of income from continuing operations, (3) $10.4 million from discontinued operations, (4) $2.6 million from the exercise of employee stock options, (5) $2.4 million related to the increase in current liabilities, and (6) $0.6 million from the sale of certain discontinued operations. The primary uses of cash for the nine-month period ended October 2, 2005 were (1) $12.6 million related to an increase in inventory levels, (2) $12.6 million for additions to property and equipment in our manufacturing facilities, (3) $7.6 million from increases in prepaid expenses, (4) $5.8 million of other investing primarily associated with deposits and other non-current expenditures, and (5) $4.3 million from increases in accounts receivable.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Our discussion below in this Item 3 is based upon the more detailed discussions of our market risk and related matters included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 2, 2005, under Item 7A of that Form 10-K. Our discussion here focuses on the quarter ended October 2, 2005, and any material changes from (or other important intervening developments since the time of) the information discussed in that Form 10-K. This discussion should be read in conjunction with that Form 10-K for more detailed and background information.
At October 2, 2005, we recognized a $24.4 million decrease in our foreign currency translation adjustment account compared to January 2, 2005, primarily because of the strengthening of the U.S. dollar against the Euro.
Sensitivity Analysis. For purposes of specific risk analysis, we use sensitivity analysis to measure the impact that market risk may have on the fair values of our market sensitive instruments.
To perform sensitivity analysis, we assess the risk of loss in fair values associated with the impact of hypothetical changes in interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates on market sensitive instruments. The market value of instruments affected by interest rate and foreign currency exchange rate risk is computed based on the present value of future cash flows as impacted by the changes in the rates attributable to the market risk being measured. The discount rates used for the present value computations were selected based on market interest and foreign currency exchange rates in effect at October 2, 2005. The values that result from these computations are compared with the market values of these financial instruments at October 2, 2005. The differences in this comparison are the hypothetical gains or losses associated with each type of risk.
As of October 2, 2005, based on a hypothetical immediate 150 basis point increase in interest rates, with all other variables held constant, the market value of our fixed rate long-term debt would be impacted by a net decrease of approximately $25.2 million. Conversely, a 150 basis point decrease in interest rates would result in a net increase in the market value of our fixed rate long-term debt of approximately $25.0 million.
As of October 2, 2005, a 10% decrease or increase in the levels of foreign currency exchange rates against the U.S. dollar, with all other variables held constant, would result in a decrease in the fair value of our financial instruments of $8.0 million or an increase in the fair value of our financial instruments of $6.6 million, respectively. As the impact of offsetting changes in the fair market value of our net foreign investments is not included in the sensitivity model, these results are not indicative of our actual exposure to foreign currency exchange risk.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
