The following analysis of the results of operations and financial condition of the Company should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes included elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Statement Regarding the Impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic

The World Health Organization (“WHO”) on March 11, 2020, declared novel coronavirus 2019 (“COVID-19”) a global pandemic.

In response to this declaration, the Company has taken the following actions to maneuver the current economic landscape:

 Employees that can perform work outside of the workplace may work from home,

 Suspension of the Company’s 401K match effective June 1, 2020, through December 31, 2020,

 Temporary 50% reduction of cash compensation for the Company’s Board of Directors through October 1, 2020,

 Temporary 25% reduction of salary compensation for the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer / Chief Operating Officer through October 1, 2020,

 Temporary elimination of all non-essential expenses and capital expenditures,

 Temporary reduction of quarterly dividend payments;

 Negotiations with vendors to extend payment terms.

During the year ended June 30, 2021, we have seen improvement in our business conditions as retailers have reopened and orders have increased, however, we continue to see supply chain challenges faced by the furniture industry due to limited availability of ocean containers and significant increases in ocean container rates, limited availability and inflationary pressures in key materials, and labor shortages both in Asia and the United States.

The COVID-19 pandemic remains fluid, including as a result of COVID-19 variants, and the extent of the ongoing impact to our business may be significant;

however, we are unable to predict the extent or nature of these impacts at this time.

Business Update

On April 28, 2020, we announced the exit of our Vehicle Seating, and the remainder of the Hospitality product lines, and subsequently closed our Dubuque, Iowa and Starkville, Mississippi manufacturing facilities.

We completed substantially all of the restructuring activities related to the exit of our Vehicle Seating and the remainder of the Hospitality product lines during fiscal 2021.

Fiscal 2022 Compared to Fiscal 2021

Net sales were $544.3 million for the year ended June 30, 2022, compared to net sales of $478.9 million in the prior year, an increase of $65.4 million or 13.6%.

Sales of products sold through retailers grew by $73.4 million or 17.8% primarily driven by pricing and a strong order backlog at the start of the year.

Sales of products sold through e-commerce channels decreased by $8.0 million, or 12% due to a decrease in consumer demand.

Gross margin as a percent of net sales for the year ended June 30, 2022, was 13.4%, compared to 20.2% for the prior year period, a decrease of 680 basis points (“bps”).

The 680-bps decrease was primarily driven by a 450-bps decrease related to ancillary charges caused by domestic supply chain disruptions and higher per diem charges, a decrease of 200-bps due to pricing promotions and inventory write-downs, a decrease of 110-bps related to capacity growth investments in a third additional manufacturing plant in Mexico, and a new distribution facility in Greencastle, Pennsylvania, and a decrease of 70-bps primarily related to cost inflation for materials, labor, and transportation, partially offset by an increase of 150-bps related to price realization.

Selling, general, and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses decreased by $1.2 million in the year ended June 30, 2022, compared to the prior fiscal year.

As a percentage of net sales, SG&A was 12.3% in the fiscal year 2022 compared to 14.2% of net sales in the prior fiscal year .

The decrease of 190-bps is primarily due to a decrease of 170-bps due to leverage on year-over-year sales growth and a decrease of 100-bps due to lower incentive compensation and offset by an increase of 80-bps due to growth investments.

Restructuring expenses were $0.7 million during the year ended June 30, 2022, primarily for ongoing costs associated with our facilities listed as held for sale, professional fees, and former employee expenses as part of our previously announced comprehensive restructuring plan.

See Note 5, Restructuring , of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K for more information.

During the year ended June 30, 2022, we completed the sale of our remaining Harrison, Arkansas facility, resulting in total net proceeds of $1.45 million, and a total gain of $1.4 million.

Income tax expense was $4.1 million, or an effective rate of 68.6%, during the year ended June 30, 2022, compared to income tax expense of $8.4 million in the prior year, or an effective tax rate of 26.8%.

The effective tax rate is primarily impacted by changes in our deferred tax assets for which we do not receive the income tax benefit due to our full valuation allowance.

See Note 10, Income Taxes , of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K for more information.

Net income was $1.9 million, or $0.28 per diluted share for the year ended June 30, 2022, compared to net income of $23.0 million, or $3.09 per diluted share in the prior year.

Fiscal 2021 Compared to Fiscal 2020

Net sales were $478.9 million for the year ended June 30, 2021, compared to net sales of $366.9 million in the prior year, an increase of 30.5%.

The increase in sales of $112.0 million was primarily driven by $138.8 million, or an increase of 51.1%, related to home furnishing products sold through retailers, and $5.9 million, or an increase of 9.7%, for home furnishing products sold through e-commerce.

Net sales growth in our home furnishing products were virtually in all product categories due to increased demand, partially offset by a decline of $32.7 million primarily due to the exit from our Vehicle Seating and Hospitality product lines during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2020.

Net sales growth in our home furnishing products was virtually in all product categories due to increased demand, partially offset by a decline of $32.7 million primarily due to the exit from our Vehicle Seating and Hospitality product lines during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2020.

Gross margin as a percent of net sales for the year ended June 30, 2021, was 20.2%, compared to 14.5% for the prior year, an increase of 570 basis points (“bps”).

The 570-bps increase was primarily driven by structural cost reductions, operational efficiencies, and fixed cost leverage due to higher sales volume as compared to the prior year and lower inventory reserve due to demand.

Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased $4.5 million in the year ended June 30, 2021, compared to the prior year.

The decline in SG&A expenses was primarily due to a $3.5 million reduction in bad debt expense from the prior year driven by a customer bankruptcy.

Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased by $4.5 million in the year ended June 30, 2021, compared to the prior year.

The decline in SG&A expenses was primarily due to a $3.5 million reduction in bad debt expenses from the prior year driven by a customer bankruptcy.

Higher sales commission expense resulting from increased sales was largely offset by other spending reductions and lower depreciation.

1 unchanged sentence

The 550-bps decline compared to the prior year was primarily due to cost leverage gained from higher sales, reductions in non-essential spending due to COVID-19, lower depreciation expense due to assets sold or being held for sale, and lower bad debt expense as discussed above during the year ended June 30, 2021.

Restructuring expenses were $3.5 million during the year ended June 30, 2021, primarily for on-going utilities and maintenance costs for our facilities listed as held for sale, professional fees, and employee termination costs as part of our previously announced comprehensive restructuring plan.

During the year ended June 30, 2021, we completed the sale of our Dubuque, Iowa, Lancaster, Pennsylvania, and one of our Harrison, Arkansas facilities, resulting in total net proceeds of $18.6 million, and a total gain of $5.9 million.

Income tax expense was $8.4 million, or an effective rate of 26.8%, during the year ended June 30, 2021, compared to income tax benefit of $6.9 million in the prior year, or an effective tax rate of 20.5%.

Net income was $23.0 million, or $3.09 per diluted share for the year ended June 30, 2021, compared to net loss of $26.8 million, or $3.37 per diluted share in the prior year.

Fiscal 2020 Compared to Fiscal 2019

Net sales for fiscal year 2020 were $366.9 million compared to $443.6 million in the prior fiscal year, a decrease of 17.3%.

For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2020, residential net sales were $331.9 million compared to $374.5 million for the year ended June 30, 2019, a decrease of 11.4%.

The decline in residential net sales were primarily attributable to volume decreases on furniture imported from China as a result of the 25% tariff and the related price increases taken to the market, coupled with the COVID-19 pandemic.

The decline was partially offset by an increase in our ready to assemble furniture sold through e-commerce, which grew 35.7% year over year, primarily driven by increased demand.

Contract net sales were $35.0 million for the year ended June 30, 2020, a decrease of 49.3% from net sales of $69.1 million for the year ended June 30, 2019.

The decline in contract net sales was primarily driven by our decision to exit the Commercial Office and custom-designed Hospitality product lines, coupled with a decline in healthcare and Vehicle Seating products due to demand.

In April 2020, we announced the exit of our Vehicle Seating, and the remainder of the Hospitality product lines.

Gross margin for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2020, was 14.5% compared to 15.8% for the prior year period, a decline of 130 bps.

The 130 bps decline was primarily driven by a decline of 280 bps due to lower volume and product mix, a decline of 60 bps for increased costs to improve delivery lead times, partially offset by 120 bps from valuation allowance on foreign VAT as a result of collections made during the fiscal year and 80 bps from restructuring cost improvements.

Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses for the twelve months ended June 30, 2020, decreased $8.9 million to $72.4 million compared to $81.3 million for the year ended June 30, 2019.

As a percentage of net sales, SG&A was 19.7% for the year ended June 30, 2020, compared to 18.3% of net sales in the prior year period.

The increase in SG&A as a percentage of net sales was primarily driven by higher bad debt expense of $5.0 million attributable to a customer bankruptcy and the current economic environment, right-of-use lease asset impairments of $2.9 million, partially offset by current year restructuring savings and lower expenses on reduced volume.

During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2020, we incurred $34.2 million of restructuring expenses primarily for write-down of assets due to impairment, facility closures, professional fees, pension withdrawal liability and employee termination costs as part of our previously announced comprehensive transformation program.

See Note 5 Restructuring of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K for more information.

During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2020, we completed the sale of our Riverside, California property for the sale price of $20.5 million generating net proceeds of $19.6 million after customary closing costs, prorations and commissions.

This resulted in a recognized pre-tax gain on sale of $18.9 million.

For the twelve months ended June 30, 2020, the effective tax rate was 20.5% compared to 23.5% in the prior year period.

The difference between the 2020 and 2019 rates relate to recording the current year benefit at a 35% federal tax rate rather than the current statutory rate of 21% due to the carryback benefit discussed below.

In addition, we recorded an $8.4 million valuation allowance against the federal and state deferred tax assets of $10.6 million.

On March 27, 2020, the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”) was enacted and signed into law in response to the COVID-19 global pandemic.

Certain provisions of the CARES Act impacted the current fiscal year 2020.

The CARES Act permits net operating losses (“NOLs”) incurred in tax years 2018, 2019, and 2020, (the Company’s fiscal years 2019, 2020 and 2021) to offset 100% of taxable income and be carried back to each of the five preceding taxable years to generate a refund of previously paid income taxes.

The Company evaluated the impact of the CARES Act during the year ended June 30, 2020 and recorded an income tax receivable of $4.5 million for the benefit of carrying back the fiscal year 2020 NOL and an income tax receivable of $8.2M for the benefit of carrying back the fiscal year 2019 NOL.

As the Company is carrying the losses back to years beginning before January 1, 2018, the receivables were recorded at the previous 35% federal tax rate rather than the current statutory rate of 21%.

The above factors resulted in a net loss of $26.8 million or $3.37 per diluted share for fiscal year 2020 compared to a net loss of $32.6 million or $4.13 per diluted share in the prior year period.

Income tax expense was $8.4 million, or an effective rate of 26.8%, during the year ended June 30, 2021, compared to an income tax benefit of $6.9 million in the prior year, or an effective tax rate of 20.5%.

Net income was $23.0 million, or $3.09 per diluted share for the year ended June 30, 2021, compared to a net loss of $26.8 million, or $3.37 per diluted share in the prior year.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

COVID-19 update

Due to continued uncertainties because of COVID-19, we implemented measures to enhance our liquidity position and improve working capital.

During the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2020, we reduced our quarterly dividend from $0.22 per share to $0.05 per share.

We extended a 25% salary reduction for our CEO and CFO/COO and 50% cash compensation reduction for our Board of Directors through October 1, 2020.

To further bolster liquidity, on August 28, 2020, we entered into an agreement with Dubuque Bank & Trust Company, for a secured $25.0 million credit facility with a two-year term.

The balance of borrowings on June 30, 2021, was $3.5 million.

Working capital (current assets less current liabilities) at June 30, 2021 was $128.8 million compared to $128.4 million at June 30, 2020.

The $0.4 million increase in working capital reflects a $46.7 million increase in current assets offset by a $46.3 million increase in current liabilities.

The increase in current assets is primarily due to a $90.6 million increase in inventory and a $25.2 million increase in trade receivables in response to increasing sales.

These increases were offset by a decrease in cash of $46.9 million, a decline in other current assets of $9.1 million primarily due to a tax refund, and a decline of $11.7 million in assets held for sale due to the sale of facilities during the fiscal year.

The increase in current liabilities is primarily due to an increase in accounts payable of $40.0 million and a $4.8 million increase in accrued liabilities primarily due to increases in advertising accruals, commission accruals and management incentive accruals.

The decline in cash of $46.9 million was primarily due to $29.8 million share repurchases, and cash used in operating activities of $32.7 million, partially offset by $18.6 million of proceeds from the sale of the Company’s Dubuque, IA, Lancaster, PA and Harrison, AR, facilities.

Capital expenditures were $2.6 million for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2021.

Working capital (current assets less current liabilities) on June 30, 2022, was $125.4 million compared to $128.8 million on June 30, 2021.

The $3.4 million decrease in working capital was due to an increase in cash of $0.8 million, a decrease in accounts payable of $35.6 million, a decrease of $14.9 million in trade receivables, a decrease in inventory of $19.9 million, a decrease of other current assets of $4.5 million and an increase in other liabilities of $0.5 million.

Capital expenditures were $3.9 million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2022.

Financing Arrangements

Line of Credit

On August 28, 2020, we entered into a secured $25.0 million credi t facility with Dubuque Bank & Trust Company, with a two-year term and interest of 1.50% plus LIBOR, subject to a floor of 3.0%, which floor was in effect on June 30, 2021.

If LIBOR is redefined or becomes unavailable, the Bank has sole discretion to substitute another index and adjust the rate spread, however it cannot materially change the total interest cost without the Company’s advance written consent.

The credit facility expires on August 28, 2022.

The credit facility is secured by essentially all of the Company’s assets, excluding real property and requires the Company maintain compliance with certain financial and non-financial covenants.

On June 30, 2021, the balance of the line of credit was $3.5 million.

Letters of credit outstanding at Wells Fargo Bank N.A.

(“Wells”) as of June 30, 2021, totaled $1.1 million, of which $1.2 million of our cash held at Wells is pledged as collateral.

On August 28, 2020, the Company entered a two-year secured $25.0 million revolving line of credit with Dubuque Bank and Trust Company, with an interest rate of 1.50% plus LIBOR, subject to a floor of 3.00%.

The revolving line of credit was secured by essentially all the Company’s assets, excluding real property, and required the Company to maintain compliance with certain financial and non-financial covenants.

This line of credit was subsequently canceled in the first quarter of the fiscal year 2022.

On September 8, 2021, the Company, as the borrower, entered into a credit agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association (the “Lender”), and the other lenders party thereto.

The Credit Agreement has a five-year term and provides for up to an $85 million revolving line of credit.

Subject to certain conditions, the Credit Agreement also provides for the issuance of letters of credit in an aggregate amount up to $5 million which, upon issuance, would be deemed advances under the revolving line of credit.

The Company’s $1.2 million letters of credit previously issued by the Lender are being treated as outstanding under the Credit Agreement and reduce the amount of available borrowings under the revolving line of credit.

Proceeds of borrowings were used to refinance all indebtedness owed to Dubuque Bank & Trust and for working capital purposes.

The Company’s obligations under the Credit Agreement are secured by substantially all its assets, excluding real property.

Subject to certain conditions, borrowings under the Credit Agreement bear interest at LIBOR plus 1.25% or 1.50% per annum, or an effective interest rate of 3.04% on June 30, 2022.

When LIBOR becomes unavailable, the replacement rate will be determined pursuant to the terms of the Credit Agreement.

The Credit Agreement contains customary representations, warranties, and covenants, including a financial covenant to maintain a fixed coverage ratio of not less than 1.00 to 1.00.

In addition, the Loan Agreement places restrictions on the Company’s ability to incur additional indebtedness, to create liens or other encumbrances, to sell or otherwise dispose of assets, and to merge or consolidate with other entities.

On April 18, 2022, the Company, as the borrower, entered a first amendment to the September 8, 2021, Credit Agreement (“First Amendment to the Credit Agreement”), with the Lender, and the lenders party thereto.

The first amendment to the Credit Agreement changed the definition of the term ‘Payment Conditions’ and further defines default or event of default and the calculation of the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio.

As of June 30, 2022, there was $37.7 million outstanding under the Credit Agreement, exclusive of fees and letters of credit.

Letters of credit outstanding at the Lender as of June 30, 2022, totaled $1.1 million

For assets held for sale, if the net book value of the asset is greater than its estimated fair value less cost to sell, an impairment is recorded for the excess of net book value over estimated fair value less cost to sell.

We recorded impairments of none and $20.4 million in fiscal 2021 and 2020, respectively.

The $20.4 million impairment recorded in fiscal 2020 include $2.9 million related to our leases of two showroom spaces.

Income Taxes - In determining taxable income for financial statement purposes, we must make certain estimates and judgments.

These estimates and judgments affect the calculation of certain tax liabilities and the determination of the recoverability of certain of the deferred tax assets, which arise from temporary differences between the tax and financial statement recognition of revenue and expense.

In evaluating our ability to recover our deferred tax assets we consider all available positive and negative evidence including our past operating results, the existence of cumulative losses in the most recent years, and our forecast of future taxable income.

In estimating future taxable income, we develop assumptions including the amount of future pre-tax operating income, the reversal of temporary differences, and the implementation of feasible and prudent tax planning strategies.

These assumptions require significant judgment about the forecasts of future taxable income and are consistent with the plans and estimates we are using to manage the underlying businesses.

We maintain valuation allowances with respect to our deferred tax assets unless it is more likely than not that all or a portion of such deferred tax assets will be realized.

Our income tax expense recorded in the future may be reduced to the extent of decreases in our valuation allowances.

The realization of our remaining deferred tax assets is primarily dependent on future taxable income in the appropriate jurisdiction.

Any reduction in future taxable income including but not limited to any future restructuring activities may require that we record an additional valuation allowance against our deferred tax assets.

An increase in the valuation allowance could result in additional income tax expense in such a period and could have a significant impact on our future earnings.
