ETHAN ALLEN INTERIORS INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

(1)Basis of Presentation and Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Basis of Presentation

Ethan Allen Interiors Inc. (“Interiors”) is a Delaware corporation incorporated on May 25, 1989. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Interiors, its wholly owned subsidiary Ethan Allen Global, Inc. (“Global”), and Global’s subsidiaries (collectively “We”, “Us”, “Our”, “Ethan Allen”, or the “Company”).  All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in the consolidated financial statements.  All of Global’s capital stock is owned by Interiors, which has no assets or operating results other than those associated with its investment in Global.

We prepare our consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, which requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.  In preparing these financial statements, the Company has evaluated events and transactions subsequent to December 31, 2009 through February 5, 2010, the date of public issuance of this Quarterly Report on form 10-Q.  Due to the inherent uncertainty involved in making those estimates, actual results could differ from those estimates.  Areas in which significant estimates have been made include, but are not limited to, revenue recognition, the allowance for doubtful accounts receivable, inventory obsolescence, tax valuation allowances, useful lives for property, plant and equipment and intangible assets, goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible asset impairment analyses, the evaluation of uncertain tax positions and the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in business combinations.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued guidance now codified as FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 105, “Generally Accepted Accounting Principles,” as the single source of authoritative nongovernmental U.S. GAAP.  ASC Topic 105 does not change current U.S. GAAP, but is intended to simplify user access to all authoritative U.S. GAAP by providing all authoritative literature related to a particular topic in one place. All existing accounting standard documents will be superseded and all other accounting literature not included in the ASC will be considered non-authoritative. These provisions of ASC Topic 105 became effective for the Company in the first quarter of fiscal 2010. The adoption of this pronouncement did not have an impact on the Company’s financial condition or results of operations, but will impact our financial reporting process by eliminating all references to pre-codification standards. On the effective date of this Statement, the ASC superseded all then-existing non-SEC accounting and reporting standards, and all other non-grandfathered non-SEC accounting literature not included in the ASC became non-authoritative. References to the pre-codification pronouncements are noted in parenthesis.

In September 2006, FASB issued guidance now codified as ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” (SFAS No. 157) which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures about fair value measurements and does not require any new fair value measurements.   In February 2008, the FASB released additional ASC Topic 820 guidance (FSP No. 157-2), which delayed the effective date of the application of certain guidance related to non-financial assets and non-financial liabilities until July 1, 2009 for the Company, except for items that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a recurring basis.  The Company adopted certain provisions of ASC Topic 820 effective July 1, 2008, except as it relates to those non-financial assets and non-financial liabilities excluded as noted above.  The Company adopted the provisions of ASC Topic 820 with respect to our non-financial assets and non-financial liabilities effective July 1, 2009. The implementation of this pronouncement did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

In December 2007, the FASB issued guidance now codified as ASC Topic 805, “Business Combinations” (SFAS No. 141(R), which replaced SFAS No. 141).  ASC Topic 805 establishes principles and requirements for how an acquirer in a business combination recognizes and measures in its financial statements the identifiable assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, and any controlling interest; recognizes and measures the goodwill acquired in the business combination or a gain from a bargain purchase; and determines what information to disclose to enable users of the financial statements to evaluate the nature and financial effects of the business combination. ASC Topic 805 is to be applied prospectively to business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after an entity’s fiscal year that begins after December 15, 2008 (July 1, 2009 for the Company). The impact of this Statement on the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows will be dependent on the terms, conditions and details of such acquisitions.

In June 2008, the FASB issued guidance now codified as ASC Topic 260, “Earnings Per Share” (EITF 03-6). Under ASC Topic 260, unvested share-based payment awards that contain rights to receive non-forfeitable dividends (whether paid or unpaid) are participating securities, and should be included in the two-class method of computing earnings per share. The implementation of this pronouncement did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

(2)Interim Financial Presentation

In our opinion, all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments necessary for fair presentation, have been included in the consolidated financial statements. The results of operations for the three and six months ended December 31, 2009 are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the entire fiscal year. The interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the year ended June 30, 2009.

(3)Income Taxes

The Company reviews its expected annual effective income tax rates and makes changes on a quarterly basis as necessary based on certain factors such as changes in forecasted annual operating income; changes to actual or forecasted permanent book to tax differences; impacts from future tax audits with state, federal or foreign tax authorities; or impacts from tax law changes.  The Company identifies items which are not normal and are nonrecurring in nature and treats these as discrete events. The tax effect of discrete items is recorded in the quarter in which the discrete events occur. Due to the volatility of these factors, the Company’s consolidated effective income tax rate can change significantly on a quarterly basis.

We recognize the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position.  All of the unrecognized tax benefits, if recognized, would be recorded as a benefit to income tax expense. Our continuing practice is to recognize interest and penalties related to income tax matters as a component of income tax expense.

The Company’s consolidated effective tax rate was 33.7% and 30.9% for the six months ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively. In the current quarter, the effective tax rate is primarily related to the tax benefit on the current quarter loss. The tax benefit is partially offset by the foreign valuation allowance on the Canadian net operating losses, by state valuation allowance on certain state net operating losses and by state income tax expense in states where the Company’s subsidiaries file on a separate company basis. The prior period effective tax rate benefited from a one time adjustment of $0.7 million made in the first quarter of fiscal 2009.

The Company conducts business globally and, as a result, the Company or one or more of its subsidiaries files income tax returns in the U.S., various state, and foreign jurisdictions. In the normal course of business, the

7

ETHAN ALLEN INTERIORS INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

Company is subject to examination by the taxing authorities in such major jurisdictions as Canada, Mexico and the U.S. As of December 31, 2009, certain subsidiaries of the Company are currently under audit from 2001 through 2007 in the U.S. It is reasonably possible that some of these audits may be completed during the next twelve months. While the amount of uncertain tax benefits with respect to the entities and years under audit may change within the next twelve months, it is not anticipated that any of the changes will be significant.

A valuation allowance must be established for deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not that they will not be realized. In prior periods, the Company established a valuation allowance for the state deferred tax assets and Canadian net operating losses in its Retail segment. As of December 31, 2009, after considering both positive and negative evidence, management’s assessment is that a valuation allowance is not needed for the Company’s other deferred tax assets.  Due to the economic times and recent losses, management will continue to assess the realizability of the tax assets based on actual and forecasted operating results on a quarterly basis, as required under ASC topic 740.  It is possible during the current fiscal year, that the realization of tax assets is not reasonably assured due to a of lack of available objective evidence.  Management would then record a valuation allowance against the tax assets which would result in a non-cash charge to earnings.

(4)Inventories

Inventories at December 31, 2009 and June 30, 2009 are summarized as follows (in thousands):

	December 31, 2009		June 30, 2009
Finished goods	$	114,025	$	130,180
Work in process	7,290		7,476
Raw materials	20,676		18,863
	$	141,991	$	156,519

Inventories are presented net of a related valuation allowance of $2.2 million at both December 31, 2009 and June 30, 2009.

(5)Restructuring and Impairment Charges

In recent years, we have announced and executed plans to consolidate our operations as part of an overall strategy to maximize efficiencies and maintain our competitive advantage.

In fiscal 2009, the Company consolidated several operations. Upholstery plants in Eldred, Pennsylvania and Chino, California were consolidated into the Maiden, North Carolina operations. Sawmill and dimension mill production in Andover, Maine was transferred to the Beecher Falls, Vermont site.  All remaining case goods plants are being converted to produce custom case goods products. Wholesale distribution locations, and several retail service centers were consolidated. For these actions, the Company estimates pre-tax restructuring, impairment, accelerated depreciation and other related charges will ultimately approximate $31 million ($24 million wholesale, $7 million retail), consisting of an $18 million impact from long-lived assets, $8 million in employee severance and other payroll and benefit costs, and $5 million in other associated costs.   In the current fiscal year, total costs were $0.2 million of restructuring credits and $6.6 million in accelerated depreciation charges for Wholesale, and $1.3 million of restructuring charges for the Retail segment. Cumulative charges to date for these actions totaling $20.7 million have been classified in the Statement of Operations as restructuring and impairment charges, and $6.6 million of accelerated depreciation was recorded in cost of sales.  Adjustments to the restructuring reserve in the current period consist primarily of gains on the sale of equipment sold and adjustments on non-cancellable leases.  The activity in the restructuring reserve related to these plans is presented in the following table (in thousands) and is classified with accrued expenses and other current liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

In fiscal 2008, we announced a plan to consolidate the operations of certain Ethan Allen-operated retail design centers and retail service centers. In connection with this initiative, we permanently ceased operations at ten design centers and six retail service centers which, for the most part, were consolidated into other existing operations.  Costs for these actions in the current fiscal year totaled $0.5 million, all for the Retail segment, due to non-cancellable lease adjustments and net losses on the sale of real estate. Cumulative charges to date for these actions total $6.0 million, all of which have been classified in the Statement of Operations as restructuring and impairment charges of the Retail segment.

Activity in the Company’s restructuring reserves related to these plans is summarized in the table below (in thousands) and is classified with accrued expenses and other current liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheets:

(6)Business Acquisitions

There were no acquisitions completed during the six months ended December 31, 2009.

In October 2008, we acquired, in a single transaction, one Ethan Allen retail design center from an independent retailer for consideration of approximately $0.3 million of cash and forgiveness of receivables.  As a result of this acquisition, we recorded additional inventory of $0.2 million and goodwill of $0.1 million.  In August 2008, we acquired in two transactions, two Ethan Allen retail design centers from independent retailers for consideration of approximately $0.6 million of cash and forgiveness of receivables, assumed customer deposits of $0.7 million and other liabilities of $0.2 million.  As a result of this acquisition, we recorded additional inventory of $0.7 million and goodwill of $0.7 million.

All acquisitions are subject to a contractual holdback or reconciliation period, during which the parties to the transaction may agree to certain normal and customary purchase accounting adjustments.

Goodwill associated with our acquisitions represents the premium paid to the seller related to the acquired business (i.e. market presence) and other fair value adjustments to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed.  Further discussion of our goodwill and other intangible assets can be found in Note 7.

A summary of our allocation of purchase price accounting for acquisitions during the three and six months ended December 31, 2008 is provided below (in thousands).

	Three months ended December 31, 2008		Six months ended December 31, 2008
Business segment	Retail		Retail
Total consideration	$	344	$	911
Fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed:
Inventory	157		826
PP&E and other assets	11		60
Customer deposits	94		(561		)
A/P and other liabilities	14		(186		)
Goodwill	$	68	$	772

(7)Goodwill, Other Intangible Assets and Goodwill Impairment

At both December 31, 2009 and June 30, 2009, we had goodwill and other indefinite-lived intangible assets of $25.4 million and $19.7 million, respectively, all of which is included in the Wholesale segment.  The indefinite-lived intangible assets represent Ethan Allen trade names.  The Company previously had goodwill in the Retail segment, all of which was considered impaired and written off during the third quarter of fiscal 2009.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

In accordance with ASC Topic 350, “Intangibles-Goodwill and Other” (SFAS No. 142), we do not amortize goodwill or other indefinite-lived intangible assets but, rather, we conduct an annual impairment analysis of goodwill and other indefinite-lived intangible assets the first of April each fiscal year, unless events occur or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of the goodwill or other indefinite-lived intangible assets below their carrying value. In determining whether an interim test is appropriate, management considers several factors including changes in the Company’s stock price, financial performance, third party ratings on its long-term debt, and expected financial outlook of the business. Methods employed to value the enterprise and the Company’s retail and wholesale segments include the market approach and the income approach, which are reconciled with the total market capitalization of the Company. These valuation methods use historical revenues and cash flows, as well as Company and external analysts’ financial projections and apply discount rates, weighted average cost of capital rates, total invested capital multiples, and premium control multiples. Fair value of our trade name is valued using the relief-from-royalty method. Significant factors used in trade name valuation are royalty rates, future growth and discount rates, and expense rates.

The Company performed impairment evaluations during the second and third quarters of fiscal 2009 as a result of sudden and dramatic changes in the business climate and the Company’s performance, and determined as of March 31, 2009 that the $48.4 million of goodwill in the Retail segment was considered impaired and fully written off at that time.  In the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2009, the Company performed its annual impairment test and concluded there was no additional impairment.

In fiscal 2010, the Company concluded for the first and second quarters that no interim impairment test was required.  During the six months ended December 31, 2009, although business performance was slightly below management’s expectations, our sales, gross profit, operating income, net income and other indicators improved from the previous quarter, and our long-term outlook has not changed.  The Company’s average quarterly stock price increased 12% (from $12.11 for the quarter ended June 30, 2009, to $13.53 for the quarter ended December 31, 2009), and cash balances increased to $76.1 million at December 31, 2009 from $53.0 million at June 30, 2009.

There can be no assurance that the outcome of future reviews will not result in substantial impairment charges.  Impairment assessment inherently involves judgments as to assumptions about expected future cash flows and the impact of market conditions on those assumptions.  Future events and changing market conditions may impact our assumptions as to prices, costs or other factors that may result in changes in our estimates of future cash flows.  Although we believe the assumptions we use in testing for impairment are reasonable, significant changes in any of our assumptions could produce a significantly different result.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

In September 2005, we completed a private offering of $200.0 million in ten-year senior unsecured notes due 2015 (the “Senior Notes”). The Senior Notes were offered by Global and have an annual coupon rate of 5.375% with interest payable semi-annually in arrears on April 1 and October 1 of each year.  We have used the net proceeds of $198.4 million to expand our retail network, invest in our manufacturing and logistics operations, and for other general corporate purposes.

On October 23, 2009, the Company expanded to $60 million the three-year senior secured asset-based revolving credit facility (the “Facility”) established on May 29, 2009.  The Facility provides revolving credit financing of up to $60 million, subject to borrowing base availability.  At the Company’s option, revolving loans under the Agreement bear interest at an annual rate of either:

(a) London Interbank Offered rate (“LIBOR”) plus 3.25% to 4.25%, based on the average availability, or

(b) the higher of (i) a prime rate, (ii) the federal funds effective rate plus 0.50%, or (iii) a LIBOR rate plus 1.00% plus, in each case, an additional 2.25% to 3.25%, based on average availability.

The Facility is secured by all property owned, leased or operated by the Company in the United States excluding any real property owned by the Company and also excludes any intellectual property owned by the Company unless availability is less than or equal to $17.5 million, and contains customary covenants which may limit the Company’s ability to incur debt; engage in mergers and consolidations; make restricted payments (including dividends); sell certain assets; and make investments.

At December 31, 2009, we had no revolving loans, and $12.5 million in trade and standby letters of credit outstanding under the Facility. Remaining availability under the revolver totaled $47.5 million subject to limitations set forth in the agreement noted above. We are in compliance with the terms and conditions of the agreement and as a result, the coverage charge ratio, or other restricted payment limitations did not apply.  As of December 31, 2009, we are in compliance with all covenants of our credit facility.

(9)Litigation

Environmental Matters

We and our subsidiaries are subject to various environmental laws and regulations. Under these laws, we and/or our subsidiaries are, or may be, required to remove or mitigate the effects on the environment of the disposal or release of certain hazardous materials.

During the fiscal year ending June 30, 2009, our liability with respect to three active sites currently listed, or proposed for inclusion, on the National Priorities List (“NPL”) under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act of 1980, as amended (“CERCLA”), where we and/or our subsidiaries had been named as a Potentially Responsive Party (“PRP”) located in Southington, Connecticut; High Point, North Carolina; and Atlanta, Georgia has been resolved.

In each case we were not a major contributor based on the very small volume of waste generated by us in relation to total volume at those sites and were able to take part in de minimus settlement arrangements.  Specifically, with respect to the Southington site, our volumetric share is less than 1% of over 51 million gallons disposed of at the site and there are more than 1,000 PRPs.  With respect to the High Point site, our volumetric share is less than 1% of over 18 million gallons disposed of at the site and there are more than 2,000 PRPs, including more than 1,000 de minimis parties (of which we are one). With respect to the Atlanta site, a former solvent recycling/reclamation facility, our volumetric share is less than 1% of over 20 million gallons disposed of at the site by more than 1,700 PRPs.

12

ETHAN ALLEN INTERIORS INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

In addition to the now settled actions discussed above, in July 2000, we were notified by the State of New York (the “State”) that we may be named a PRP in a separate, unrelated matter with respect to a site located in Carroll, New York.   In May, 2009, we were notified by the State that it had conducted an initial environmental study and that we have been named as a PRP.  We believe that we are not a major contributor; however, a review of the initial environmental study is ongoing.

Liability under CERCLA may be joint and several. As such, to the extent certain named PRPs are unable, or unwilling, to accept responsibility and pay their apportioned costs, we could be required to pay in excess of our pro rata share of incurred remediation costs. Our understanding of the financial strength of other PRPs has been considered, where appropriate, in the determination of our estimated liability.

As of December 31, 2009, we believe that established reserves related to these environmental contingencies are adequate to cover probable and reasonably estimable costs associated with the remediation and restoration of these sites.  We believe our currently anticipated capital expenditures for environmental control facility matters are not material.

We are subject to other federal, state and local environmental protection laws and regulations and are involved, from time to time, in investigations and proceedings regarding environmental matters.  Such investigations and proceedings typically concern air emissions, water discharges, and/or management of solid and hazardous wastes. We believe that our facilities are in material compliance with all such applicable laws and regulations.

Regulations issued under the Clean Air Act Amendments of 1990 required the industry to reformulate certain furniture finishes or institute process changes to reduce emissions of volatile organic compounds. Compliance with many of these requirements has been facilitated through the introduction of high solids coating technology and alternative formulations. In addition, we have instituted a variety of technical and procedural controls, including reformulation of finishing materials to reduce toxicity, implementation of high velocity low pressure spray systems, development of storm water protection plans and controls, and further development of related inspection/audit teams, all of which have served to reduce emissions per unit of production. We remain committed to implementing new waste minimization programs and/or enhancing existing programs with the objective of (i) reducing the total volume of waste, (ii) limiting the liability associated with waste disposal, and (iii) continuously improving environmental and job safety programs on the factory floor which serve to minimize emissions and safety risks for employees. We will continue to evaluate the most appropriate, cost effective, control technologies for finishing operations and design production methods to reduce the use of hazardous materials in the manufacturing process.

(10)Share-Based Compensation

On October 10, 2007, the Company’s Board of Directors and M. Farooq Kathwari, our Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer, agreed to the terms of a new employment agreement expiring on June 30, 2012 (the “Agreement”).  Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, Mr. Kathwari was awarded options to purchase 150,000 shares of our common stock on October 10, 2007, options to purchase an additional 90,000 shares on July 1, 2008, and options to purchase an additional 60,000 shares on July 1, 2009, in each case at the closing stock price on the grant date.  The 2007 grant was issued at an exercise price of $34.03, and vests in three equal installments on each June 30 of 2008, 2009 and 2010.  The 2008 grant was issued at an exercise price of $24.62, and vests in two equal installments on each of June 30, 2009 and 2010.  The 2009 grant was issued at an exercise price of $10.68 and vests on June 30, 2010. All options awarded under the Agreement have a contractual term of 10 years.

In connection with the Agreement, Mr. Kathwari received an award of 20,000 restricted shares with vesting based on continuing service and the performance of the Company’s stock price during the 32 month period subsequent to the award date as compared to the Standard and Poor’s 500 index.  On July 1, 2008, an additional award of 20,000 restricted shares with the same vesting conditions (over a 36 month period) was granted.  Mr. Kathwari received, as

13

ETHAN ALLEN INTERIORS INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

per the Agreement, an additional grant of 20,000 restricted shares on July 1, 2009 with the same 36 month vesting, continuing service and performance conditions.

Also in connection with the Agreement, Mr. Kathwari received on November 13, 2007 an award of 15,000 restricted shares.  These shares are service-based with 3,000 shares vesting on June 30 for each of the years 2008 through 2012.

On November 12, 2009, the Company awarded options to purchase 83,500 shares of our common stock to a large group of associates at the closing stock price on the grant date of $11.74.  These grants vest in four equal annual installments on the anniversary date of the grant.

(11)Earnings Per Share

Basic and diluted earnings per share are calculated using the following weighted average share data (in thousands):

	Three Months Ended		Six Months Ended
	December 31,		December 31,
	2009	2008	2009	2008
Weighted average common shares outstanding for basic calculation	28,917	28,739	28,922	28,721
Effect of dilutive stock options and other share-based awards	—	—	—	72
Weighted average common shares outstanding adjusted for dilution calculation	28,917	28,739	28,922	28,793

As of December 31, 2009 and 2008, stock options to purchase 2,251,389 and 2,287,725 common shares, respectively, were excluded from the respective diluted earnings per share calculation because their impact was anti-dilutive.

(12)Comprehensive Income

Total comprehensive income represents the sum of net income and items of “other comprehensive income or loss” that are reported directly in equity.  Such items, which are generally presented on a net of tax basis, may include foreign currency translation adjustments, minimum pension liability adjustments (i.e. gains and losses) on certain derivative instruments, and unrealized gains and losses on certain investments in debt and equity securities.  We have reported our total comprehensive income in the Consolidated Statements of Shareholders’ Equity.

Accumulated other comprehensive income, comprised of losses on certain derivative instruments and accumulated foreign currency translation adjustments, totaled $1.2 million at December 31, 2009 and $0.5 million at June 30, 2009.  Losses on derivative instruments are the result of cash flow hedging contracts entered into in connection with the issuance of the Senior Notes (see Note 8).  Foreign currency translation adjustments are the result of changes in foreign currency exchange rates related to our operation of five Ethan Allen owned retail design centers located in Canada and our cut and sew plant located in Mexico.  Foreign currency translation adjustments exclude income tax expense (benefit) given that the earnings of non-U.S. subsidiaries are deemed to be reinvested for an indefinite period of time.

(13)Financial Instruments

ACS Topic 820, “Fair value measurements and disclosures” (SFAS No. 157) defines fair value as the price that would be received upon sale of an asset or paid upon transfer of a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date and in the principal or most advantageous market for that asset or liability. The fair value should be calculated based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or

14

ETHAN ALLEN INTERIORS INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

liability, not on assumptions specific to the entity. In addition, the fair value of liabilities should include consideration of non-performance risk including our own credit risk.

In addition to defining fair value, ASC Topic 820 expands the disclosure requirements around fair value and establishes a fair value hierarchy for valuation inputs. The hierarchy prioritizes the inputs into three levels based on the extent to which inputs used in measuring fair value are observable in the market. Each fair value measurement is reported in one of the three levels which is determined by the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. These levels are:

·Level 1 — inputs are based upon unadjusted quoted prices for identical instruments traded in active markets.

·Level 2 — inputs are based upon quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active, and model-based valuation techniques for which all significant assumptions are observable in the market or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.

·Level 3 — inputs are generally unobservable and typically reflect management’s estimates of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. The fair values are therefore determined using model-based techniques that include option pricing models, discounted cash flow models, and similar techniques.

The following section describes the valuation methodologies we use to measure different financial assets and liabilities at fair value.

The Company partially adopted ASC Topic 820 on July 1, 2008 due to the fact that a portion of ASC Topic 820 was previously deferred for one year for all nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities that were not recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a recurring basis (at least annually).  On July 1, 2009, the Company adopted the deferred portion of ACS Topic 820.  There was no impact to the Company’s financial position or results of operations resulting from the adoption of the deferred portion of ACS Topic 820.  The Company has now fully adopted ASC Topic 820.

Cash Equivalents

Cash equivalents consist of money market accounts and mutual funds in U.S. government and agency securities.  We use quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities to determine fair value.  This pricing methodology applies to our Level 1 cash equivalents.  We do not hold any Level 2 or Level 3 investments in our cash equivalents.

Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis

At December 31, 2009, the Company’s assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis consist of $70.0 million in cash equivalents, which were valued using Level 1 inputs.

Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis

We measure certain assets, including our cost and equity method investments, at fair value on a nonrecurring basis. These assets are recognized at fair value when they are deemed to be other-than-temporarily impaired. During the six months ended December 31, 2009, we did not record any other-than-temporary impairments on those assets required to be measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis.

(14)Segment Information

Our operations are classified into two operating segments: wholesale and retail.  These operating segments represent strategic business areas which, although they operate separately and provide their own distinctive services, enable us to more effectively offer our complete line of home furnishings and accessories.

The wholesale segment is principally involved in the development of the Ethan Allen brand, which encompasses the design, manufacture, domestic and offshore sourcing, sale and distribution of a full range of home furnishings and accessories to a network of independently owned and Ethan Allen owned design centers as well as related marketing and brand awareness efforts.  Wholesale revenue is generated upon the wholesale sale and shipment of our product to all retail design centers, including those owned by Ethan Allen.  Wholesale profitability includes (i) the wholesale gross margin, which represents the difference between the wholesale sales price and the cost associated with manufacturing and/or sourcing the related product, and (ii) other operating costs associated with wholesale segment activities.

The retail segment sells home furnishings and accessories to consumers through a network of Company owned design centers.  Retail revenue is generated upon the retail sale and delivery of our product to our customers.  Retail profitability includes (i) the retail gross margin, which represents the difference between the retail sales price and the cost of goods purchased from the wholesale segment, and (ii) other operating costs associated with retail segment activities.

Inter-segment eliminations result, primarily, from the wholesale sale of inventory to the retail segment, including the related profit margin.

We evaluate performance of the respective segments based upon revenues and operating income. While the manner in which our home furnishings and accessories are marketed and sold is consistent, the nature of the underlying recorded sales (i.e. wholesale versus retail) and the specific services that each operating segment provides (i.e. wholesale manufacturing, sourcing, and distribution versus retail selling) are different.  Within the wholesale segment, we maintain revenue information according to each respective product line (i.e. case goods, upholstery, or home accessories and other).

A breakdown of wholesale sales by these product lines for the three and six months ended December 31, 2009 and 2008 is provided as follows:

	Three Months Ended				Six Months Ended
	December 31,				December 31,
	2009		2008		2009		2008
Case Goods	42	%	42	%	41	%	42	%
Upholstered Products	44		40		44		41
Home Accessories and Other	14		18		15		17
	100	%	100	%	100	%	100	%

Revenue information by product line is not as easily determined within the retail segment. However, because wholesale production and sales are matched, for the most part, to incoming orders, we believe that the allocation of retail sales by product line would be similar to that of the wholesale segment.

16)Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2009, the FASB released additional guidance on ASC Topic 810, “Consolidation” (SFAS No. 167) which will revise previous guidance applicable to variable interest entities (“VIEs”). The new guidance will require ongoing assessments of whether an enterprise is the primary beneficiary of a VIE, as opposed to reconsideration only when specific events occurred, as under present rules. The new guidance will also replace the quantitative approach previously required for determining the primary beneficiary of a VIE with a qualitative approach, and changes some disclosure requirements. This revised guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2009 (July 1, 1010 for the Company).  The Company is currently evaluating the impact, if any, on our financial statements and results of operations.

(17)Financial Information About the Parent, the Issuer and the Guarantors

On September 27, 2005, Global (the “Issuer”) issued $200 million aggregate principal amount of Senior Notes which have been guaranteed on a senior basis by Interiors (the “Parent”), and other wholly owned domestic subsidiaries of the Issuer and the Parent, including Ethan Allen Retail, Inc., Ethan Allen Operations, Inc., Ethan Allen Realty, LLC, Lake Avenue Associates, Inc. and Manor House, Inc. The subsidiary guarantors (other than the Parent) are collectively called the “Guarantors”.  The guarantees of the Guarantors are unsecured.  All of the guarantees are full, unconditional and joint and several and the Issuer and each of the Guarantors are 100% owned by the Parent. Ethan Allen (UK) Ltd. (which was legally dissolved in October 2009), and our other subsidiaries which are not guarantors are called the “Non-Guarantors”. During the quarter ended December 31, 2008, we determined that our international subsidiaries in Canada and Mexico are non-guarantors. The Company has reclassified, for all prior periods presented, the financial results of these international subsidiaries to reflect their non-guarantor status.

The following tables set forth the condensed consolidating balance sheets as of December 31, 2009 and June 30, 2009, the condensed consolidating statements of operations for the three and six months ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, and the condensed consolidating statements of cash flows for the six months ended December 31, 2009 and 2008 of the Parent, the Issuer, the Guarantors and the Non-Guarantors.

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

The following discussion of financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with (i) our Consolidated Financial Statements, and notes thereto, as set forth in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and (ii) our Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the year ended June 30, 2009.

Forward-Looking Statements

Management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations and other sections of this Quarterly Report contain forward-looking statements relating to our future results. Such forward-looking statements are identified by use of forward-looking words such as “anticipates”, “believes”, “plans”, “estimates”, “expects”, and “intends” or words or phrases of similar expression. These forward-looking statements are subject to management decisions and various assumptions, risks and uncertainties, including, but not limited to: the effects of terrorist attacks or conflicts or wars involving the United States or its allies or trading partners; the effects of labor strikes; weather conditions that may affect sales; volatility in fuel, utility, transportation and security costs; changes in global or regional political or economic conditions, including changes in governmental and central bank policies; changes in business conditions in the furniture industry, including changes in consumer spending patterns and demand for home furnishings; effects of our brand awareness and marketing programs, including changes in demand for our existing and new products; our ability to locate new design center sites and/or negotiate favorable lease terms for additional design centers or for the expansion of existing design centers; competitive factors, including changes in products or marketing efforts of others; pricing pressures; fluctuations in interest rates and the cost, availability and quality of raw materials; those matters discussed in Items 1A and 7A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the year ended June 30, 2009 and in our SEC filings; and our future decisions. Accordingly, actual circumstances and results could differ materially from those contemplated by the forward-looking statements.

Critical Accounting Policies

The Company’s consolidated financial statements are based on the accounting policies used.  Certain accounting polices require that estimates and assumptions be made by management for use in the preparation of the financial statements.  Critical accounting policies are those that are central to the presentation of the Company’s financial condition and results and that require subjective or complex estimates by management.  The Company’s critical accounting policies regarding Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and Goodwill are described below.  For information regarding the Company’s other critical accounting policies, see the Company’s 2009 Annual Report on Form 10-K/A filed with the SEC on August 27, 2009

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and Goodwill —We periodically evaluate whether events or circumstances have occurred that indicate that long-lived and indefinite-lived assets may not be recoverable or that the remaining useful life may warrant revision.  When such events or circumstances are present, the Company determines whether the carrying value exceeds the fair value as described below.

In accordance with ASC Topic 360, “Property, Plant and Equipment” (SFAS No. 144), the recoverability of long-lived assets are evaluated for impairment by determining whether the carrying value will be recovered through the expected undiscounted future cash flows resulting from the use of the asset.  In the event the sum of the expected undiscounted future cash flows is less than the carrying value of the asset, an impairment loss equal to the excess of the asset’s carrying value over its fair value is recorded.  The long-term nature of these assets requires the estimation of cash inflows and outflows several years into the future and only takes into consideration technological advances known at the time of the impairment test.

In accordance with ASC Topic 350, “Intangibles-Goodwill and Other” (SFAS No. 142), goodwill and other indefinite-lived intangible assets are evaluated for impairment on an annual basis and between annual tests

25

whenever events or circumstances indicate that the carrying value of the goodwill or other intangible asset may exceed its fair value. We conduct our required annual impairment test of goodwill and other intangible assets during the fourth quarter of each fiscal year.

To evaluate goodwill, the Company determines the current fair value of the Reporting Units using a combination of “Market” and “Income” approaches.  In the Market approach, the “Guideline Company” method is used, which focuses on comparing the Company’s risk profile and growth prospects to reasonably similar publicly traded companies.  Key assumptions used for the Guideline Company method are total invested capital (“TIC”) multiples for revenues and operating cash flows, as well as consideration of control premiums.  The TIC multiples are determined based on public furniture companies within our peer group, and if appropriate, recent comparable transactions are also considered.  Control premiums are determined using recent comparable transactions in the open market. Under the Income approach, a discounted cash flow method is used, which includes a terminal value, and is based on external analyst financial projection estimates, as well as internal financial projection estimates prepared by management. The long-term terminal growth rate assumptions reflect our current long-term view of the market in which we compete.  Discount rates use the weighted average cost of capital for companies within our peer group, adjusted for specific company risk premium factors.

The fair value of our trade name, which is the Company’s only indefinite-lived intangible asset other than goodwill, is valued using the relief-from-royalty method. Significant factors used in trade name valuation are rates for royalties, future growth, and a discount factor.  Royalty rates are determined using an average of recent comparable values.  Future growth rates are based on the Company’s perception of the long-term values in the market in which we compete, and the discount rate is determined using the weighted average cost of capital for companies within our peer group, adjusted for specific company risk premium factors. The fair value of the trade name substantially exceeded the carrying value in fiscal 2009.

As a result of the economic downturn that began in the fall of 2008, the Company’s revenues and operating margins were negatively impacted.  In response, the Company reduced headcount, consolidated its manufacturing, retail, and logistics footprint and repositioned its marketing approach.  As a result of these changes, the Company’s cash flow forecasts were continually updated to reflect the rapid changes in the business and the industry.  During fiscal 2009, the Company determined that $48.4 million of goodwill in the Retail segment was considered impaired and fully written off. The cash flow projections used in its fair value evaluations are the best estimates of the Company and require significant management judgment.

In the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2009, the Company performed its annual impairment test and no impairment of goodwill was appropriate as the fair value of the Wholesale reporting unit net assets exceeded the book value by approximately 10%.  In fiscal 2010, the Company concluded for the first and second quarters that no interim impairment test was required.  During the six months ended December 31, 2009, although business performance was slightly below management’s expectations, our sales, gross profit, operating income, net income and other indicators improved from the previous quarter, and our long-term outlook has not changed.  The Company’s average quarterly stock price increased 12% (from $12.11 for the quarter ended June 30, 2009, to $13.53 for the quarter ended December 31, 2009), and cash balances increased to $76.1 million at December 31, 2009 from $53.0 million at June 30, 2009.  There can be no assurance that the outcome of future reviews will not result in substantial impairment charges.

To calculate fair value of the assets described above, management relies on estimates and assumptions which by their nature have varying degrees of uncertainty. Wherever possible, management therefore looks for third party transactions as described above to provide the best possible support for the assumptions incorporated. Management considers several factors to be significant when estimating fair value including expected financial outlook of the business, changes in the Company’s stock price, the impact of changing market conditions on

26

financial performance and expected future cash flows, and other factors. Deterioration in any of these factors may result in a lower fair value assessment, which could lead to impairment of the long-lived assets and goodwill of the Company.

Results of Operations

Our business has been severely impacted by the economic factors in the United States and abroad which we began to feel in earnest during our second quarter of fiscal 2009.  Weakness in the U.S. economy from continued high unemployment, volatile capital markets, depressed housing prices and tight consumer spending have all put negative stress on the economy which continues to have a negative impact on our business.  As we work through these difficult times, we have taken dramatic actions to significantly reduce costs in all facets of our business including closing and realigning manufacturing plants, consolidating logistics operations, and closing under-performing retail design centers. These actions have been taken with appropriate consideration for demand and management believes it has retained sufficient scalable capacity.  We have also launched initiatives to increase sales, such as special savings product promotions, our designer affiliate program and conversion of our case goods products to custom.

In fiscal 2009, the Company consolidated several operations. Upholstery plants in Eldred, Pennsylvania and Chino, California were consolidated into the Maiden, North Carolina operations. Sawmill and dimension mill production in Andover, Maine was transferred to the Beecher Falls, Vermont site.  All remaining case goods plants are being converted to produce custom case goods products. Wholesale distribution locations, and several retail service centers were consolidated. For these actions, the Company estimates pre-tax restructuring, impairment, accelerated depreciation and other related charges will ultimately approximate $31 million ($24 million wholesale, $7 million retail), consisting of an $18 million impact from long-lived assets, $8 million in employee severance and other payroll and benefit costs, and $5 million in other associated costs.   In the current fiscal year, total costs were $0.2 million of restructuring credits and $6.6 million in accelerated depreciation charges for Wholesale, and $1.3 million of restructuring charges for the Retail segment. Cumulative charges to date for these actions totaling $20.7 million have been classified in the Statement of Operations as restructuring and impairment charges, and $6.6 million of accelerated depreciation was recorded in cost of sales.  Adjustments to the restructuring reserve in the current period consist primarily of gains on the sale of equipment sold and adjustments on non-cancellable leases.

In fiscal 2008, we announced a plan to consolidate the operations of certain Ethan Allen-operated retail design centers and retail service centers. In connection with this initiative, we permanently ceased operations at ten design centers and six retail service centers which, for the most part, were consolidated into other existing operations.  Costs for these actions in the current fiscal year totaled $0.5 million, all for the Retail segment, due to non-cancellable lease adjustments and net losses on the sale of real estate. Cumulative charges to date for these actions total $6.0 million, all of which have been classified in the Statement of Operations as restructuring and impairment charges of the Retail segment.

Our revenues are comprised of (i) wholesale sales to independently owned and Company-owned retail design centers and (ii) retail sales of Company-owned design centers.  See Note 14 to our Consolidated Financial Statements for the three months and six months ended December 31, 2009 and 2008 for the components of consolidated revenue and operating income, capital expenditures, and total assets by segment.

Quarter Ended December 31, 2009 Compared to Quarter Ended December 31, 2008

Consolidated revenue for the three months ended December 31, 2009 decreased 24.4% to $143.3 million, from $189.6 million for the three months ended December 31, 2008. During the quarter, sales continued to be affected by the negative economic stresses mentioned earlier, as well as the use of highly promotional pricing strategies by the Company’s competitors.  These factors were partially offset by (i) several new marketing initiatives including our special savings pricing, and our new interactive web site ethanalleninc.com, (ii) the continued use of national television media, where we emphasize to clients our interior design services and the full line of our quality product offerings, and (iii) the positive effects of efforts to reposition the retail network.

Wholesale revenue for the second quarter of fiscal 2010 decreased 22.4% to $84.5 million from $108.8 million in the prior year comparable period.  The quarter-over-quarter decrease was primarily attributable to a decline in the incoming order rate due to a continued soft retail environment for home furnishings noted throughout the current period. These decreases were partially offset by our special savings pricing during the quarter.  In addition, there were three more independent retail design centers at December 31, 2009, which increased to 134 from 131 at December 31, 2008, and twelve fewer Ethan Allen-operated design centers as noted below.  There were the same number of shipping days in the quarter both this year and last year.

Retail revenue from Ethan Allen-owned design centers for the three months ended December 31, 2009 decreased 27.2% to $107.1 million from $147.2 million for the three months ended December 31, 2008.  We believe the decrease in retail sales by Ethan Allen-operated design centers is due to the same soft market conditions experienced by the wholesale segment, as evidenced by a 25.3% decrease in comparable store sales, a net $6.0 million decrease in new/closed store sales, and a net decrease in the number of Ethan Allen-operated design centers to 150 as of December 31, 2009 as compared to 162 as of December 31, 2008.  These decreases were partially offset by more aggressive marketing campaigns including special savings pricing during the quarter.  During the quarter, we opened one (a relocation) and closed five design centers.

Comparable design centers are those which have been operating for at least 15 months.  Minimal net sales, derived from the delivery of customer ordered product, are generated during the first three months of operations of newly opened (including relocated) design centers. Design centers acquired by us from independent retailers are included in comparable design centers sales in their 13th full month of Ethan Allen-owned operations.

Quarter-over-quarter, written business of Ethan Allen-owned design centers decreased 9.0% while comparable design centers written business decreased 6.1%.  Over that same period, wholesale orders decreased 18.2%.  Both retail and wholesale written business reflect the softer retail environment for home furnishings noted throughout the period as a result of the continued negative economic stresses previously discussed.

We have made considerable investment within the retail network to strengthen the level of service, professionalism, interior design competence, efficiency, and effectiveness of the retail design center personnel.  We also believe that over time, we will benefit from (i) our repositioning of the retail network, (ii) new product introductions, (iii) new marketing initiatives such as our special savings pricing, and our new interior design affiliate (IDA) program, (iv) continued use of technology including our state-of-the-art website coupled with personal service from our design professionals, and (v) ongoing use of national television and shelter magazines as advertising media.

Gross profit decreased during the quarter to $69.0 million from $101.8 million in the prior year comparable quarter.  The 32.2% decrease in gross profit was primarily attributable to (i) the reduction in net sales of 24.4%, with an overall decrease in shipments in both market segments, (ii) plant transition costs related to the restructuring of our manufacturing plants, ramping up upholstery production, and transition to custom case goods, and (iii) lower margins within the retail segment, due to discounted sales through our special savings

28

pricing initiatives and sales of discontinued product and floor samples.  The sales mix had a slightly unfavorable shift with retail sales representing a lower proportionate share of total sales in the current quarter (75%) compared to the prior year period (78%). Consolidated gross margin decreased to 48.2% from 53.7% in the prior year as a result, primarily, of the factors set forth above.

Operating profit, the elements of which are discussed in greater detail below, was impacted by the following items during the three months ended December 31, 2009 and 2008:

Operating expenses decreased 19.0% to $74.3 million, but increased to 51.9% of sales in the current quarter from $91.7 million, or 48.4% of sales in the prior year quarter.  Selling expenses were down in absolute terms due to cost cutting actions taken and lower sales volume, and increased as a percentage of sales due to significantly lower sales volume.  Salary related costs decreased due to the reduced number of employees and other cost cutting efforts taken by the Company.

Consolidated operating income (loss) for the three month period ended December 31, 2009 was a loss of $5.2 million, or 3.7% of sales, as compared to income of $10.1 million, or 5.3% of sales, for the three months ended December 31, 2008.  This decrease of $15.4 million is due to a decrease in gross profit mostly due to reduced sales, and transitional costs due to restructuring activities, partly offset by a decrease in period over period operating expenses, both of which were discussed previously.

Wholesale operating income for the three months ended December 31, 2009 was $1.0 million, or 1.2% of sales, as compared to income of $8.6 million, or 7.9% of sales, in the prior year comparable quarter. The decrease of $7.6 million was primarily attributable to a decrease in sales volume, and the plant transition costs relating to the closure of manufacturing plants as discussed previously.

Retail operating loss increased $6.6 million to a loss of $9.8 million, or a negative 9.1% of sales, for the second quarter of fiscal 2010 from a loss of $3.2 million, or a negative 2.2% of sales, for the second quarter of fiscal 2009.  The increase in retail operating loss generated by Ethan Allen-operated design centers was primarily due to reduced sales attributed to the weak retail environment for home furnishings offset partially by cost cutting actions taken.

Interest and other miscellaneous income, net decreased $0.1 million from the prior year comparable quarter.  The decrease was due, primarily to lower rates of interest during the current period.

Interest and other related financing costs amounted to just under $3.0 million in both the current and prior year periods.  This amount consists, primarily, of interest expense incurred in connection with our issuance of senior unsecured debt in September 2005.

Income Tax Expense for the three months ended December 31, 2009 totaled a benefit of $3.9 million as compared to an expense of $2.8 million for the three months ended December 31, 2008. Our effective tax rate for the current quarter was 53.9% compared to 33.6% in the prior year quarter. In the current quarter, the effective tax rate is primarily related to the tax benefit on the current quarter loss. The tax benefit is partially offset by the foreign valuation allowance on the Canadian net operating losses, by state valuation allowance on certain state net operating losses and by state income tax expense in states where the Company’s subsidiaries file on a separate company basis. The prior period effective tax rate benefited from a one time adjustment of $0.7 million made in the first quarter of fiscal 2009.

Net income (loss) for the three months ended December 31, 2009, was a loss of $3.3 million as compared to net income of $5.5 million in the prior year comparable period.  This resulted in a net loss per diluted share of $0.12 in the current quarter and net income per diluted share of $0.19 in the prior year quarter.

Six Months Ended December 31, 2009 Compared to Six Months Ended December 31, 2008

Consolidated revenue for the six months ended December 31, 2009 decreased 29.3% to $279.5 million, from $395.4 million for the six months ended December 31, 2008. During the period, sales continue to be affected by the negative economic stresses mentioned earlier, as well as the use of highly promotional pricing strategies by the Company’s competitors.  These factors were partially offset by (i) several new marketing initiatives including our special savings pricing, and our new interactive web site ethanalleninc.com, (ii) the continued use of national television media, where we emphasize to clients our interior design services and the full line of our quality product offerings, and (iii) the positive effects of efforts to reposition the retail network.

Wholesale revenue for the first six months of fiscal 2010 decreased 28.0% to $165.8 million from $230.1 million in the prior year comparable period.  The period-over-period decrease was primarily attributable to a decline in the incoming order rate due to a continued soft retail environment for home furnishings noted throughout the current period. These decreases were partially offset by our special savings pricing during the quarter.  In addition, there were three more independent retail design centers at December 31, 2009, which increased to 134 from 131, and twelve fewer Ethan Allen-operated design centers as noted below. There were the same number of shipping days in the current six month period both this year and last year.

Retail revenue from Ethan Allen-owned design centers for the six months ended December 31, 2009 decreased 30.6% to $210.3 million from $303.1 million for the six months ended December 31, 2008.  We believe the decrease in retail sales by Ethan Allen-operated design centers is due to the same soft market conditions experienced by the wholesale segment, as evidenced by a 30.5% decrease in comparable store sales, a net $8.2 million decrease in new/closed store sales, and a net decrease in the number of Ethan Allen-operated design centers to 150 as of December 31, 2009 as compared to 162 as of December 31, 2008.  These decreases were partially offset by our special savings pricing during the period.  During the period, we opened six (including four relocations) and closed fifteen design centers.

Comparable design centers are those which have been operating for at least 15 months.  Minimal net sales, derived from the delivery of customer ordered product, are generated during the first three months of operations of newly opened (including relocated) design centers. Design centers acquired by us from independent retailers are included in comparable design centers sales in their 13th full month of Ethan Allen-owned operations.

Year-over-year, written business of Ethan Allen-owned design centers decreased 14.9% while comparable design centers written business decreased 13.9%.  Over that same period, wholesale orders decreased 19.9%.  Both retail and wholesale written business reflect the softer retail environment for home furnishings noted throughout the period as a result of continued negative economic stresses previously discussed.

We have made considerable investment within the retail network to strengthen the level of service, professionalism, interior design competence, efficiency, and effectiveness of the retail design center personnel.  We also believe that over time, we will benefit from (i) our repositioning of the retail network, (ii) new product introductions, (iii) new marketing initiatives such as our special savings pricing, and our new interior design affiliate (IDA) program, (iv) continued use of technology including our state-of-the-art website coupled with personal service from our design professionals, and (iv) ongoing use of national television and shelter magazines as advertising media.

Gross profit decreased during the six months to $127.3 million from $213.7 million in the prior year comparable period.  The 40.4% decrease in gross profit was primarily attributable to (i) the reduction in net sales of 29.3%, with an overall decrease in shipments in both market segments, (ii) lower margin percentages within the wholesale segment due to accelerated depreciation from closed manufacturing operations totaling $6.6 million, under absorption of plant overhead costs on the lower production volume, both in the first fiscal quarter, and

30

other plant transition costs related to the restructuring of our manufacturing plants throughout the six month period, and (iii) lower margins within the retail segment, due to discounted sales through our special pricing initiatives and sales of discontinued product and floor samples.  The sales mix had a slightly unfavorable shift with retail sales representing a lower proportionate share of total sales in the current six month period (75%) compared to the prior year (77%).   Consolidated gross margin decreased to 45.6% from 54.1% in the prior year as a result, primarily, of the factors set forth above.

Operating profit, the elements of which are discussed in greater detail below, was impacted by the following items during the six months ended December 31, 2009 and 2008:

Operating expenses decreased 22.3% to $148.7 million, but increased to 53.2% of sales in the current quarter from $191.4 million, or 48.4% of sales in the prior six month period.  Selling expenses were down in absolute terms due to cost cutting actions taken and lower sales volume.  Salary related costs decreased due to the reduced number of employees and other cost cutting efforts taken by the Company.  Advertising expenses were down $3.7 million versus the previous year.

Consolidated operating income (loss) for the six month period ended December 31, 2009 was a loss of $21.4 million, or a negative 7.6% of sales, as compared to income of $22.3 million, or 5.6% of sales, for the six months ended December 31, 2008.  This decrease of $43.7 million is due to a decrease in gross profit mostly due to reduced sales, and accelerated depreciation charges due to restructuring activities, partly offset by a decrease in period over period operating expenses, both of which were discussed previously.

Wholesale operating income (loss) for the six months ended December 31, 2009 totaled a loss of $3.6 million, or a negative 2.2% of sales, as compared to income of $20.4 million, or 8.9% of sales, in the prior year comparable period. The decrease of $24.1 million was primarily attributable to a decrease in sales volume, and to plant transition costs including the $6.6 million of accelerated depreciation relating to the closure of manufacturing plants as discussed previously.

Retail operating loss increased $14.9 million to a loss of $21.1 million, or a negative 10.1% of sales, for the first six months of fiscal 2010 from a loss of $6.2 million, or a negative 2.1% of sales, for the comparable period of fiscal 2009.  The increase in retail operating loss generated by Ethan Allen-operated design centers was primarily due to reduced sales attributable to the weak retail environment for home furnishings offset partially by cost cutting actions taken.

Interest and other miscellaneous income, net decreased $0.4 million from the prior year comparable period.  The decrease was due, primarily to a decrease in investment income resulting from lower rates of interest during the current period.

Interest and other related financing costs amounted to just under $6.0 million in both the current and prior year periods.  This amount consists, primarily, of interest expense incurred in connection with our issuance of senior unsecured debt in September 2005.

Income tax expense for the six months ended December 31, 2009 totaled a benefit of $8.6 million as compared to an expense of $5.8 million for the six months ended December 31, 2008. Our effective tax rate for the current period was 33.7% compared to 30.9% in the prior year period. In the current period, the effective tax rate is primarily related to the tax benefit on the current period loss. The tax benefit is partially offset by the foreign valuation allowance on the Canadian net operating losses, by state valuation allowance on certain state net operating losses and by state income tax expense in states where the Company’s subsidiaries file on a separate company basis. The prior period effective tax rate benefited from a one-time adjustment of $0.7 million made in the first quarter of fiscal 2009. A valuation allowance must be established for deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not that they will not be realized. In prior periods, the Company established a valuation allowance for

31

the state deferred tax assets and Canadian net operating losses in its Retail segment. As of December 31, 2009, after considering both positive and negative evidence, management’s assessment is that a valuation allowance is not needed for the Company’s other deferred tax assets.  Due to the economic times and recent losses, management will continue to assess the realizability of the tax assets based on actual and forecasted operating results on a quarterly basis, as required under ASC topic 740.  It is possible during the current fiscal year, that the realization of tax assets is not reasonably assured due to a lack of available objective evidence.  Management would then record a valuation allowance against the tax assets which would result in a non-cash charge to earnings.

Net income (loss) for the six months ended December 31, 2009, was a loss of $16.9 million as compared to net income of $12.9 million in the prior year comparable period.  This resulted in a net loss per diluted share of $0.58 in the current period and net income per diluted share of $0.45 in the prior year period.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

At December 31, 2009, we held cash and cash equivalents of $76.1 million.  Our principal sources of liquidity include cash and cash equivalents, cash flow from operations, the revolving line of credit, and borrowings.

The global economy continues to be unsettled, and capital markets continue to be disrupted and volatile.  The cost and availability of funding has been and may continue to be adversely affected by illiquid credit markets. Some lenders have reduced or, in some cases, ceased to provide funding to borrowers.  However, our lenders have not indicated to us that they would not continue to provide funding to us or not honor or be able to fully perform their obligations under the credit facility.  Our access to the credit facility could also be negatively affected if operating results fall below prescribed levels or if the assets used to determine the borrowing base availability fall below the total available credit under the facility.  Continued turbulence in the financial markets could also adversely affect the cost and availability of financing to us in the future.

On October 23, 2009, the Company expanded to $60 million the three-year senior secured asset-based revolving credit facility (“the “Facility”) established on May 29, 2009.  The Facility provides revolving credit financing of up to $60 million, subject to borrowing base availability.  At the Company’s option, revolving loans under the Agreement bear interest at an annual rate of either:

(a) London Interbank Offered rate (“LIBOR”) plus 3.25% to 4.25%, based on the average availability, or

(b) the higher of (i) a prime rate, (ii) the federal funds effective rate plus 0.50%, or (iii) a LIBOR rate plus 1.00% plus, in each case, an additional 2.25% to 3.25%, based on average availability.

The Facility is secured by all property owned, leased or operated by the Company in the United States excluding any real property owned by the Company and, at December 31, 2009, also excluded any intellectual property owned by the Company unless availability was less than or equal to $17.5 million.  The Facility contains customary covenants which may limit the Company’s ability to incur debt; engage in mergers and consolidations; make restricted payments (including dividends); sell certain assets; and make investments. The Company may make restricted payments (including dividends) as long as availability equals or exceeds the greater of (i) 25% of the aggregate commitment or (ii) $12 million.  If the average monthly availability is less than the greater of (i) 15% of the aggregate commitment and (ii) $9 million, the Company is also required to meet a fixed charge coverage ratio financial covenant which may not be less than 1 to 1 for any period of four consecutive fiscal quarters. The Facility also contains customary borrowing conditions and events of default, the occurrence of which would entitle the lenders to accelerate the maturity of any outstanding borrowings and terminate their commitment to make future loans.

32

The Company has not drawn any cash advances against the facility, and has no plans to do so.  At December 31, 2009, after excluding the $12.5 million we had utilized in letters of credit, remaining availability under the revolver totaled $47.5 million subject to limitations set forth in the agreement noted above. We are in compliance with the terms and conditions of the agreement and as a result, the coverage charge ratio, or other restricted payment limitations did not apply.  As of December 31, 2009, we are in compliance with all covenants of our credit facility.

In September 2005, we completed a private offering of $200.0 million in ten-year senior unsecured notes due 2015 (the “Senior Notes”). The Senior Notes were offered by Global and have an annual coupon rate of 5.375% with interest payable semi-annually in arrears on April 1 and October 1 of each year.  We have used the net proceeds of $198.4 million to expand our retail network, invest in our manufacturing and logistics operations, and for other general corporate purposes.

In June 2009, Moodys Investors Service lowered our corporate and senior unsecured credit ratings to Ba1 from Baa3, and Standard & Poor’s (“S&P”) lowered our corporate and senior unsecured credit ratings to BB from BBB-. In November 2009, S&P lowered our corporate and senior unsecured credit ratings to B+. Both rating services pointed to the Company’s depressed operating performance due to lower consumer spending and a tough retail environment as reasons for the downgrades.  While the change in our credit rating had no impact on our existing credit facilities, if the S&P rating is not improved to investment grade by March 13, 2010, the issuer of our private label credit cards has a right to demand a standby letter of credit of up to $12 million, which would reduce availability under the revolving credit agreement. It does not appear likely that the S&P rating will improve to investment grade prior to March 13, 2010.  The Company believes it has sufficient cash and access to credit to fund operations and growth plans.

A summary of net cash provided by (used in) operating, investing, and financing activities for the six month periods ended December 31, 2009 and 2008 is provided below (in millions):

Total provided by (used in) financing activities	$	(3.1	)	$	(13.5	)

Operating Activities

Compared to the same period in fiscal year 2009, cash provided by operating activities increased $5.1 million.  This occurred due to the $31.1 million increase in cash generated from working capital (accounts receivable,

33

inventories, prepaid and other current assets, customer deposits, payables, accrued expenses, and other current liabilities) resulting from an increase in customer deposits, inventory initiatives taken and income tax refunds, offset by decreases in accounts receivable and accrued expenses.  This was offset by a decrease in net income of $29.8 million (partially offset by $6.6 million in depreciation charges due to restructuring activities).  The $1.7 million in cash generated from other items was largely a result of restructuring charges, partially offset by a net increase in deferred tax benefits.

Investing Activities

As compared to the same period in fiscal year 2009, cash used in investing activities decreased $16.0 million during the six months ended December 31, 2009 due, primarily, to a reduction in cash utilized to fund capital expenditures and acquisitions and an increase in proceeds from the sale of assets.  We anticipate that cash from operations will be sufficient to fund future capital expenditures.

Financing Activities

As compared to the same period in fiscal year 2009, cash used in financing activities decreased $10.4 million during the six months ended December 31, 2009, primarily as a result of a decrease in dividend payments.  The Company has continuously paid dividends every quarter since 1996.  On November 16, 2009, the Board declared a dividend of $0.05 per common share, payable on January 25, 2010, to shareholders of record as of January 11, 2010.  On January 19, 2010, the Board declared a dividend of $0.05 per common share, payable on April 26, 2010, to shareholders of record as of April 9, 2010.  If adverse economic conditions continue, the Company may further reduce our quarterly dividends.

As of December 31, 2009, our outstanding debt totaled $203.2 million, the current and long-term portions of which amounted to less than $0.1 million and $203.2 million, respectively.  The aggregate scheduled maturities of long-term debt for each of the next five fiscal years are: less than $0.1 million in fiscal 2010, $3.9 million in fiscal 2011 and less than $0.1 million in fiscal 2012 and 2013.  The balance of our long-term debt ($199.3 million) matures in fiscal years 2014 and thereafter.

There has been no material change to the amount or timing of cash payments related to our outstanding contractual obligations as set forth in Part II, Item 7 — Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operation of our Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the year ended June 30, 2009 as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on August 27, 2009.

We believe that our cash flow from operations, together with our other available sources of liquidity, will be adequate to make all required payments of principal and interest on our debt, to permit anticipated capital expenditures, and to fund working capital and other cash requirements.  As of December 31, 2009, we had working capital of $140.0 million and a current ratio of 2.2 to 1.

In addition to using available cash to fund changes in working capital, necessary capital expenditures, acquisition activity, the repayment of debt, and the payment of dividends, we have been authorized by our Board of Directors to repurchase our common stock, from time to time, either directly or through agents, in the open market at prices and on terms satisfactory to us. All of our common stock repurchases and retirements are recorded as treasury stock and result in a reduction of shareholders’ equity.

There were no repurchases during the six months ended December 31, 2009 and 2008.  As of December 31, 2009, we had a remaining Board authorization to repurchase 1,567,669 shares.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements and Other Commitments, Contingencies and Contractual Obligations

Except as indicated below, we do not utilize or employ any off-balance sheet arrangements, including special-purpose entities, in operating our business.  As such, we do not maintain any (i) retained or contingent interests, (ii) derivative instruments (other than as specified below), or (iii) variable interests which could serve as a source of potential risk to our future liquidity, capital resources and results of operations.

In connection with the issuance of the Senior Notes, Global, in July and August 2005, entered into six separate forward contracts to hedge the risk-free interest rate associated with $108.0 million of the related debt in order to mitigate the negative impact of interest rate fluctuations on earnings, cash flows and equity. The forward contracts were entered into with a major banking institution thereby mitigating the risk of credit loss. Upon issuance of the Senior Notes in September 2005, the related forward contracts were settled. At the present time we have no current plans to engage in further hedging activities.

We may, from time to time in the ordinary course of business, provide guarantees on behalf of selected affiliated entities or become contractually obligated to perform in accordance with the terms and conditions of certain business agreements. The nature and extent of these guarantees and obligations may vary based on our underlying relationship with the benefiting party and the business purpose for which the guarantee or obligation is being provided. Details of those arrangements for which we act as guarantor or obligor are provided below.

Retailer-Related Guarantees

Independent Retailer Credit Facility

On June 11, 2009, we obligated ourselves, on behalf of one of our independent retailers, with respect to a $0.5 million credit facility (the “Amended Credit Facility”). The Company had previously guaranteed on April 9, 2009, on behalf of the independent retailer, a $0.9 million credit facility (the “Credit Facility”).  This obligation requires us, in the event of the retailer’s default under the Amended Credit Facility, to repurchase the retailer’s inventory, applying such purchase price to the retailer’s outstanding indebtedness under the Amended Credit Facility. Our obligation remains in effect for the life of the term loan.  The agreement expires in April 2011.  The maximum potential amount of future payments (undiscounted) that we could be required to make under this obligation is limited to the amount outstanding under the Amended Credit Facility at the time of default (subject to pre-determined lending limits based on the value of the underlying inventory) and, as such, is not an estimate of future cash flows.  No specific recourse or collateral provisions exist that would enable recovery of any portion of amounts paid under this obligation, except to the extent that we maintain the right to take title to the repurchased inventory. We anticipate that the repurchased inventory could subsequently be sold through our retail design center network.

As of December 31, 2009, the amount outstanding under the Amended Credit Facility totaled approximately $0.5 million.  Based on the underlying creditworthiness of the respective retailer, we believe this obligation will expire without requiring funding by us.  Our non-contingent obligations under this arrangement as a result of modifications made to the Credit Facility subsequent to January 1, 2003 are not material.

Ethan Allen Consumer Credit Program

The terms and conditions of our consumer credit program, which is financed and administered by a third-party financial institution on a non-recourse basis to Ethan Allen, are set forth in an agreement between us and that financial service provider (the “Program Agreement”). Any independent retailer choosing to participate in the consumer credit program is required to enter into a separate agreement with that same third-party financial institution which sets forth the terms and conditions under which the retailer is to perform in connection with its offering of consumer credit to its customers (the “Retailer Agreement”). We have obligated ourselves on behalf of any independent retailer choosing to participate in our consumer credit program by agreeing, in the event of default, breach, or failure of the independent retailer to perform under such Retailer Agreement, to take on certain

35

responsibilities of the independent retailer, including, but not limited to, delivery of goods and reimbursement of customer deposits. Customer receivables originated by independent retailers remain non-recourse to Ethan Allen. Our obligation remains in effect for the term of the Program Agreement which expires in July 2012. While the maximum potential amount of future payments (undiscounted) that we could be required to make under this obligation is indeterminable, recourse provisions exist that would enable us to recover, from the independent retailer, any amount paid or incurred by us related to our performance. Based on the underlying creditworthiness of our independent retailers, including their historical ability to satisfactorily perform in connection with the terms of our consumer credit program, we believe this obligation will expire without requiring funding by us.

Product Warranties

Our products, including our case goods, upholstery and home accents, generally carry explicit product warranties that extend from one to ten years and are provided based on terms that are generally accepted in the industry.  All of our domestic independent retailers are required to enter into, and perform in accordance with the terms and conditions of, a warranty service agreement. We record provisions for estimated warranty and other related costs at time of sale based on historical warranty loss experience and make periodic adjustments to those provisions to reflect actual experience. On rare occasion, certain warranty and other related claims involve matters of dispute that ultimately are resolved by negotiation, arbitration or litigation.  In certain cases, a material warranty issue may arise which is beyond the scope of our historical experience. We provide for such warranty issues as they become known and are deemed to be both probable and estimable. It is reasonably possible that, from time to time, additional warranty and other related claims could arise from disputes or other matters beyond the scope of our historical experience. As of December 31, 2009, our product warranty liability totaled $0.8 million.

Business Outlook

Stresses in the U.S. economy from continued high unemployment, volatile capital markets, depressed housing prices and tight consumer spending continue to have a negative impact on our business.  We remain cautiously optimistic about our long term outlook, as current business conditions have marginally improved in the six months ended December 31, 2009.  We cannot predict, with any degree of certainty when these difficult economic conditions will improve meaningfully.

As macro-economic factors change, it is also possible that our costs associated with production (including raw materials, labor and utilities), distribution (including freight and fuel charges), and retail operations (including compensation, benefits, delivery, warehousing, occupancy, and advertising expenses) may increase.  We may also experience production difficulties as we consolidate manufacturing plants and convert our case goods to custom.  We cannot reasonably predict when, or to what extent, such events may occur or what effect, if any, such events may have on our consolidated financial condition or results of operations.

The home furnishings industry remains extremely competitive with respect to both the sourcing of products and the retail sale of those products. Domestic manufacturers continue to face pricing pressures as a result of the manufacturing capabilities and significant manufacturing capacities developed during recent years in other countries, specifically within Asia. In response to these pressures, a large number of U.S. furniture manufacturers and retailers, including the Company, have increased their overseas sourcing activities in an attempt to maintain a competitive advantage and retain market share. We continue to believe that a balanced approach to product sourcing, which includes the domestic manufacture of certain product offerings coupled with the import of other selected products, provides the greatest degree of flexibility and is the most effective approach to ensuring that acceptable levels of quality, service and value are attained.

We believe that our existing business model which includes: (i) an established brand with a broad offering of Company designed quality products; (ii) a comprehensive complement of home decorating solutions and complimentary interior design services and (iii) a vertically-integrated operating structure will position us well to take advantage of improved economic conditions when they occur.

36

In addition, we believe that our retail strategy, which involves (i) a continued focus on providing a wide array of product solutions including custom upholstery and case goods products and superior customer service coupled with state-of-the-art technology in our newly launched website, (ii) the opening of new or relocated design centers in more prominent locations, while encouraging independent retailers to do the same, and (iii) the development of a more professional structure within our retail network, provides an opportunity to grow our business when the current difficult economic conditions improve.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Management’s Report on Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management, including the Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and the Vice President-Finance (“VPF”), conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on such evaluation, the CEO and VPF have concluded that, as of December 31, 2009, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective in ensuring that material information relating to us (including our consolidated subsidiaries), which is required to be disclosed by us in our periodic reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and (ii) accumulated and communicated to management, including the CEO and VPF, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
