1. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have
been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and do not
include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted
accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of
management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered
necessary for a fair presentation have been included. These statements should be
read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in
the Company's 1996 Annual Report filed on Form 10-K, as filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission, which includes consolidated financial
statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 1996.

The Company's earnings per share are computed by dividing net earnings by the
weighted average common and common equivalent shares outstanding. Dilutive
common stock options are included in the earnings per share calculation using
the treasury stock method.

During the three months ended March 30, 1996, the Company recorded a direct
increase in stockholders' equity of $6,735 as a result of the tax benefit from
the exercise of stock options that were granted primarily in 1988 and 1989 in
connection with the Company's 1988 leveraged buyout.

Certain prior year financial statement balances have been reclassified to
conform with the current year's presentation.

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

Results of Operations

Quarter Ended March 29, 1997 As Compared With Quarter Ended March 30, 1996
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------

Net sales for the quarter ended March 29, 1997 were $412.8 million, which
represented an increase of 8% from the $383.7 million reported for the first
quarter of 1996. This sales increase was attributable to a gain in market share
which the Company believes resulted from continued support of our independent
dealer base, strong acceptance of new products introduced in 1996 and Mohawk's
strong product lines.

Gross profit for the first quarter of the current year was $93.9 million
(22.7% of net sales). In the first quarter of 1996, gross profit was $86.2
million (22.5% of net sales). This increase is due to manufacturing
consolidations, higher sales and other cost efficiencies realized. The
manufacturing consolidations include the closing of five residential
manufacturing facilities during 1995 and one spinning mill in 1997, as well as
the realignment of the remaining residential mills to better utilize the
strengths of each mill. The Company's integration of the manufacturing,
distribution and information systems areas is progressing as planned and
continues to contribute to the margin improvement.

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the current quarter were
$72.0 million (17.4% of net sales) compared to $68.1 million (17.8% of net
sales) for the prior year's first period. The percentage decrease was primarily
due to better leveraging of costs on higher sales dollars.

Interest expense for the current period was $7.5 million compared to $8.5
million in the first quarter of 1996. The primary factor for the decrease was a
reduction in debt levels in the first quarter of 1997 as compared to the first
quarter of 1996.

In the current period, income tax expense was $5.6 million, or 39.5% of
earnings before income taxes. In the first quarter of 1996, income tax expense
was $3.5 million, or 39.5% of earnings before income taxes.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company's primary capital requirements are for working capital, capital
expenditures and acquisitions. The Company's capital needs are met through a
combination of internally-generated funds, bank credit lines and credit terms
from suppliers.

The level of accounts receivable increased from $215.1 million at the
beginning of 1997 to $221.4 million at March 29, 1997. The $6.3 million increase
resulted primarily from seasonally higher sales volume in March as compared to
December. Inventories rose from $302.7 million at the beginning of 1997 to
$338.9 million at March 29, 1997, due to requirements to meet seasonal customer
demand.

Capital expenditures totaled $6.8 million in the first quarter of 1997 and
were incurred primarily to modernize and expand manufacturing facilities and
equipment. The Company's capital projects are primarily focused on increasing
capacity, improving productivity and reducing costs. Capital spending for the
remainder of 1997 is expected to range from $58.0 million to $63.0 million, the
majority of which will be used to increase capacity and productivity.

On April 15, 1997, the Company amended and restated its credit agreement to
provide for an interest rate of either (i) LIBOR plus 0.2% to 0.5%, depending
upon the Company's performance measured against certain financial ratios, or
(ii) the prime rate less 1.0%. Additionally, the termination date of the credit
agreement was extended to May 15, 2002.

On January 27, 1997, the Company entered into an asset purchase agreement to
acquire certain assets of Diamond Rug & Carpet Mills, Inc. The proposed purchase
price will be a maximum of $43.0 million in cash, subject to adjustment based on
the level of inventory at closing. Under the asset purchase agreement, Mohawk
has agreed to purchase selected facilities owned by Diamond's principal
shareholders. If completed, the acquisition will be accomplished through a plan
of reorganization under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code and will
be financed primarily through existing credit facilities. The acquisition is
scheduled to close in the third quarter of 1997.


9
Impact of Inflation

Inflation affects the Company's manufacturing costs and operating expenses.
The carpet industry has experienced moderate inflation in the prices of certain
raw materials and outside processing for the last three years. The Company has
generally passed along nylon fiber cost increases to its customers.

Seasonality

The carpet business is seasonal, with the Company's second, third and fourth
quarters typically producing higher net sales and operating income. By
comparison, results for the first quarter tend to be the weakest. This
seasonality is primarily attributable to consumer residential spending patterns
and higher installation levels during the spring and summer months.

Forward-Looking Information

Certain of the matters discussed in the preceding pages, particularly
regarding the effects of changes to manufacturing, distribution and systems,
levels of capital expenditures and the Diamond acquisition, may constitute
"forward-looking statements" within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities
Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.
Forward-looking statements involve a number of risks and uncertainties. Factors
that may cause actual results to differ materially include, but are not limited
to, the following: market conditions in the carpet industry, raw material
prices, timing and level of capital expenditures, the successful integration of
acquisitions, the successful introduction of new products, uncertainties
inherent in the Diamond Chapter 11 process and other risks identified from time
to time in the Company's SEC reports and public announcements.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure About Market Risks

Not applicable.

10
PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

The Company is involved in routine litigation from time to time in the
regular course of its business. Except as noted below, there are no material
legal proceedings pending or known to be threatened against the Company or any
of its property.

In June 1994, the Company and several other carpet manufacturers received
subpoenas to produce documents from a grand jury of the United States District
Court in Atlanta. The subpoenas were requested by the Antitrust Division of the
U. S. Department of Justice in connection with an investigation of the industry.
The Company believes that the results of this investigation will not have a
material adverse impact on the financial condition of the Company.

In December 1995, the Company and four other carpet manufacturers were added
as defendants in a purported class action lawsuit, In re Carpet Antitrust
Litigation, pending in the United States District Court for the Northern
District of Georgia, Rome Division. The amended complaint alleges price fixing
regarding polypropylene products in violation of Section One of the Sherman Act.
The Company is a party to two consolidated lawsuits captioned Gaehwiler v.
Sunrise Carpet Industries, Inc. et. al. and Patco Enterprises, Inc. v. Sunrise
Carpet Industries, Inc. et. al.; both of which were filed in the Superior Court
of the State of California, City and County of San Francisco in early 1996. Both
complaints were brought on behalf of a purported class of indirect purchasers of
carpet in the State of California and seek damages for alleged violations of
California antitrust and unfair competition laws. The Company believes both of
these lawsuits are without merit and intends to vigorously defend against them.
