NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1 – CONDENSED FOOTNOTES

As contemplated by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) instructions to Form 10-Q, the following footnotes have been condensed and, therefore, do not contain all disclosures required in connection with annual financial statements. Reference should be made to the Company’s year-end audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto contained in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 1, 2012, as filed with the Commission.

The financial information included in this report has been prepared by the Company, without audit. In the opinion of management, the financial information included in this report contains all adjustments (all of which are normal and recurring) necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods. Nevertheless, the results shown for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the full year. The January 1, 2012, consolidated condensed balance sheet data was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

As described below in Note 10, the Company has sold its Bentley Prince Street business segment. The results of operations and related disposal costs, gains and losses for this business are classified as discontinued operations, where applicable.

Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.

NOTE 2 – INVENTORIES

Inventories are summarized as follows:

	Sept. 30, 2012	January 1, 2012
	(In thousands)
Finished Goods	$ 87,399	$ 86,970
Work in Process	11,562	8,920
Raw Materials	48,801	44,595
	$ 147,762	$ 140,485

NOTE 3 – EARNINGS PER SHARE

The Company computes basic earnings per share (“EPS”) by dividing net income by the weighted average common shares outstanding, including participating securities outstanding, during the period as discussed below. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution beyond shares for basic EPS that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised, converted into common stock or resulted in the issuance of common stock that would have shared in the Company’s earnings.

• 7 -

Table of Contents

The Company includes all unvested stock awards which contain non-forfeitable rights to dividends or dividend equivalents, whether paid or unpaid, in the number of shares outstanding in our basic and diluted EPS calculations when the inclusion of these shares would be dilutive. Unvested share-based awards of restricted stock are paid dividends equally with all other shares of common stock. As a result, the Company includes all outstanding restricted stock awards in the calculation of basic and diluted EPS. Distributed earnings include common stock dividends and dividends earned on unvested share-based payment awards. Undistributed earnings represent earnings that were available for distribution but were not distributed. The following tables show distributed and undistributed earnings:

	Three Months Ended — Sept. 30, 2012		Oct. 2, 2011	Nine Months Ended — Sept. 30, 2012		Oct. 2, 2011

The weighted average shares outstanding for basic and diluted EPS were as follows:

	(In thousands)

Shares for Diluted Earnings Per Share	66,129	65,676	65,802	65,457

The following chart depicts options to purchase shares of common stock that were excluded from the calculation of diluted EPS as their inclusion would be anti-dilutive:

NOTE 4 – SEGMENT INFORMATION

Based on the quantitative thresholds specified by accounting standards, the Company has determined that it has one reportable segment: the Modular Carpet segment, which includes its Interface, Heuga and FLOR modular carpet businesses. In August 2012, the Company sold its Bentley Prince Street business segment (see Note 10 for further information). Accordingly, the Company has included the operations of the former Bentley Prince Street segment in discontinued operations, where applicable.

NOTE 5 – LONG-TERM DEBT

7 5/8% Senior Notes

As of both September 30, 2012, and October 2, 2011, the Company had outstanding $275 million in 7 5/8% Senior Notes due 2018 (the “7 5/8% Senior Notes”). The estimated fair value of the 7 5/8% Senior Notes as of September 30, 2012, and October 2, 2011, based on then current market prices, was $299.8 million and $279.1 million, respectively.

11 3/8% Senior Secured Notes

As of September 30, 2012, and October 2, 2011, the Company had outstanding $8.1 million and $8.0 million, respectively, in 11 3/8% Senior Secured Notes due 2013 (the “11 3/8% Senior Secured Notes”). The estimated fair value of the 11 3/8% Senior Secured Notes as of September 30, 2012, and October 2, 2011, based on then current market prices, was $8.1 million and $8.1 million, respectively.

9.5% Senior Subordinated Notes

On April 9, 2012, the Company redeemed all of the remaining $11.5 million of its outstanding 9.5% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2014 at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the notes, plus accrued interest through the redemption date.

Credit Facilities

The Company maintains a domestic revolving credit agreement (the “Facility”) that provides a maximum aggregate amount of $100 million of loans and letters of credit available to us at any one time (subject to a borrowing base) with an option for us to increase that maximum aggregate amount to $150 million (upon the satisfaction of certain conditions, and subject to a borrowing base). The Company is presently in compliance with all covenants under the Facility and anticipates that it will remain in compliance with the covenants for the foreseeable future. As of September 30, 2012, there were zero borrowings and $3.9 million in letters of credit outstanding under the Facility. As of September 30, 2012, the Company could have incurred $60.5 million of additional borrowings under the Facility.

Interface Europe B.V. (the Company’s subsidiary based in the Netherlands) and certain of its subsidiaries maintain a Credit Agreement with The Royal Bank of Scotland N.V. (“RBS”). Under this Credit Agreement, RBS provides a credit facility, until further notice, for borrowings and bank guarantees of €20 million. As of September 30, 2012, there were no borrowings outstanding under this facility, and the Company could have incurred €20 million (approximately $25.7 million) of additional borrowings under the facility.

Other non-U.S. subsidiaries of the Company have an aggregate of the equivalent of $18.9 million of lines of credit available. As of September 30, 2012, there were no borrowings outstanding under these lines of credit.

NOTE 6 – STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

Stock Option Awards

In accordance with accounting standards, the Company measures the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments based on the grant date fair value of the award. That cost will be recognized over the period in which the employee is required to provide the services – the requisite service period (usually the vesting period) – in exchange for the award. The grant date fair value for options and similar instruments will be estimated using option pricing models. Under accounting standards, the Company is required to select a valuation technique or option pricing model that meets the criteria stated in the standard. The Company uses the Black-Scholes model. Accounting standards require that the Company estimate forfeitures for stock options and reduce compensation expense accordingly. The Company has reduced its stock compensation expense by the assumed forfeiture rate and will evaluate experience against this forfeiture rate going forward.

• 9 -

Table of Contents

During the first nine months of 2012 and 2011, the Company recognized stock option compensation costs of $0.5 million and $0.7 million, respectively. In the third quarters of 2012 and 2011, the Company recognized stock option compensation costs of $0.1 million and $0.2 million, respectively. The remaining unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested awards at September 30, 2012, approximated $0.1 million, and the weighted average period of time over which this cost will be recognized is approximately one year.

The following table summarizes stock options outstanding as of September 30, 2012, as well as activity during the nine months then ended:

| Outstanding at January 1, 2012 | 592,500 | Weighted Average Exercise
Price — $ 9.12 |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Granted | 0 | 0 |
| Exercised | 45,000 | 6.52 |
| Forfeited or canceled | 34,000 | 15.79 |
| Outstanding at September 30, 2012 | 513,500 | $ 8.94 |
| Exercisable at September 30, 2012 | 498,500 | $ 8.75 |

At September 30, 2012, the aggregate intrinsic value of in-the-money options outstanding and options exercisable was $2.3 million and $2.3 million, respectively (the intrinsic value of a stock option is the amount by which the market value of the underlying stock exceeds the exercise price of the option).

Cash proceeds and intrinsic value related to total stock options exercised during the first nine months of fiscal years 2012 and 2011 are provided in the table below. The Company did not recognize any significant tax benefit with regard to stock options in either period presented.

	Nine Months Ended — Sept. 30, 2012	Oct. 2, 2011
	(In millions)
Proceeds from stock options exercised	$ 0.3	$ 2.6
Intrinsic value of stock options exercised	0.3	5.9

Restricted Stock Awards

During the nine months ended September 30, 2012, and October 2, 2011, the Company granted restricted stock awards for 573,500 and 668,000 shares, respectively, of common stock. These awards (or a portion thereof) vest with respect to each recipient over a two to five year period from the date of grant, provided the individual remains in the employment or service of the Company as of the vesting date. Additionally, awards (or a portion thereof) could vest earlier upon the attainment of certain performance criteria, in the event of a change in control of the Company, or upon involuntary termination without cause.

Compensation expense related to restricted stock grants was $3.2 million and $8.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2012, and October 2, 2011, respectively. Accounting standards require that the Company estimate forfeitures for restricted stock and reduce compensation expense accordingly. The Company has reduced its expense by the assumed forfeiture rate and will evaluate experience against this forfeiture rate going forward.

The following table summarizes restricted stock activity as of September 30, 2012, and during the nine months then ended:

| Outstanding at January 1, 2012 | 1,749,000 | Weighted Average Grant
Date Fair Value — $ 15.08 |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Granted | 573,000 | 13.25 |
| Vested | 264,000 | 13.37 |
| Forfeited or canceled | 84,500 | 14.87 |
| Outstanding at September 30, 2012 | 1,973,500 | $ 14.79 |

Table of Contents

As of September 30, 2012, the unrecognized total compensation cost related to unvested restricted stock was approximately $11.8 million. That cost is expected to be recognized by the end of 2015.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2012, and October 2, 2011, the Company recognized tax benefits with regard to restricted stock of $0.5 million and $2.4 million, respectively.

NOTE 8 – 2012 RESTRUCTURING CHARGES

In the first quarter of 2012, the Company committed to a new restructuring plan in its continuing efforts to reduce costs across its worldwide operations and more closely align its operations with reduced demand levels in certain markets. The plan primarily consisted of ceasing manufacturing and warehousing operations at its facility in Shelf, England. In connection with this restructuring plan, the Company incurred a pre-tax restructuring and asset impairment charge in the first quarter of 2012 in an amount of $16.3 million. The charge was comprised of employee severance expenses of $5.4 million, other related exit costs of $1.6 million, and a charge for impairment of assets of approximately $9.3 million. Approximately $7 million of the charge will result in cash expenditures, primarily severance expense. In the third quarter of 2012, the Company recorded an additional charge of $0.8 million of cash severance expenses related to the finalization of this plan for its European operations.

NOTE 9 – 2011 RESTRUCTURING CHARGE

In the fourth quarter of 2011, the Company committed to a restructuring plan intended to reduce costs across its worldwide operations and more closely align its operations with reduced demand in certain markets. As a result of this plan, the Company incurred pre-tax restructuring and asset impairment charges of $5.8 million in the fourth quarter of 2011. The majority of this charge ($5.0 million) related to the severance of approximately 90 employees in Europe, Asia and the United States. The remainder of the charge ($0.8 million) related to contract termination and fixed asset impairment costs. Approximately $5.0 million of this charge will result in cash expenditures, primarily severance expenses. Actions and expenses related to this plan were substantially completed by the end of 2011.

NOTE 12 – RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In September 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued an accounting standard regarding the performance of a company’s annual goodwill impairment evaluation. This standard allows companies to assess qualitative factors to determine if it is more likely than not that goodwill might be impaired and whether it is necessary to perform the two-step goodwill impairment test. This standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 31, 2011. The adoption of this standard did not have any significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In June 2011, the FASB amended an accounting standard regarding the presentation of comprehensive income. This amendment will require companies to present the components of net income and other comprehensive income either as one continuous statement or as two consecutive statements. It eliminates the option to present components of other comprehensive income as part of the statement of changes in shareholders’ equity. The amended guidance, which must be applied retroactively, was to be effective for interim and annual periods ending after December 31, 2012, with earlier adoption permitted. In December of 2011, the FASB issued an amendment to this statement which defers the requirements of this standard. As this amendment only affects presentation, there is not expected to be any impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 13 – INCOME TAXES

Accounting standards require that all tax positions be analyzed using a two-step approach. The first step requires an entity to determine if a tax position is more-likely-than-not to be sustained upon examination. In the second step, the tax benefit is measured as the largest amount of benefit, determined on a cumulative probability basis, that is more-likely-than-not to be realized upon ultimate settlement. In the first nine months of 2012, the Company increased its liability for unrecognized tax benefits by $0.4 million. As of September 30, 2012, the Company had accrued approximately $8.1 million for unrecognized tax benefits.

NOTE 14 – SHARE CONVERSION

On March 5, 2012, the number of issued and outstanding shares of Class B Common Stock constituted less than 10% of the aggregate number of issued and outstanding shares of the Company’s Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock (that is, on that date, 6,459,556 shares of an aggregate of 65,372,375 shares), as the cumulative result of varied transactions that caused the conversion of shares of Class B Common Stock into shares of Class A Common Stock. Accordingly, in accordance with the respective terms for the Class B Common Stock and the Class A Common Stock in Article V of the Company’s Articles of Incorporation, the Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock are now, irrevocably from March 5, 2012, a single class of Common Stock in all respects, with no distinction whatsoever between the voting rights or any other rights and privileges of the holders of Class A Common Stock and the holders of Class B Common Stock. The Company intends to eliminate future uses of (or references to) the terms “Class A” and “Class B” in connection with the Common Stock, except for historical purposes or to facilitate transition by certain stock listing or administrative services organizations who are accustomed to the old designations for the Common Stock.

NOTE 15 – FIRE AT AUSTRALIAN MANUFACTURING FACILITY

On July 20, 2012, a fire occurred at the Company’s manufacturing facility in Picton, Australia. The facility’s carpet production line, primarily comprised of tufting and backing machinery, sustained extensive damage and was rendered inoperable. Other areas of the Company’s Picton site relating to yarn preparation and warehousing were undamaged by the fire. The finished goods inventory and some raw materials for the business are kept at a separate offsite location and were not affected by this incident.

The Picton facility serves the Company’s customers throughout Australia and New Zealand. It represents approximately 7% of the Company’s total annual production, 10% of its net sales, and 13% of its operating income. The Company will utilize adequate production capacity at its manufacturing facilities in Thailand, China and elsewhere to meet customer demand typically serviced from Picton. The Company has business interruption and property damage insurance.

Table of Contents

The Company has recorded a charge of approximately $9.8 million for impairment of fixed assets related to the fire. In addition, the Company has incurred approximately $9.5 million of excess production costs related to the fire as it has utilized other facilities to service customers in the Australia market. As of the end of the third quarter, the Company has determined that the receipt of reimbursement of these expenses from its insurer is probable in accordance with its insurance policies and has therefore recorded a receivable for these items. To date, the Company has received $10 million of reimbursement from the insurance company related to the destruction of fixed assets at the Picton facility. The table below details the nature of expenses as well as insurance receivables and amounts already received related to the fire (in millions):

Impairment of fixed assets at the Picton Facility	$
Incremental payroll costs	1.8
Incremental shipping costs	5.9
Other incremental costs	1.8
Total incurred costs through September 30, 2012	$ 19.3
Insurance recovery receivable	$ 9.3
Insurance recoveries already received	$ 10.0

In addition to these additional production costs, the Company has incurred approximately $1.0 million of costs related to the fire that are non-production related and at this time are not considered probable of recovery from the insurance company. As a result, these amounts are included in the determination of operating income as shown on the line item “Losses Related to Australia Fire” on the consolidated condensed statement of operations.

The Company is gathering information related to an insurance claim for lost profits as a result of the fire. As of the end of the third quarter, the Company has not recorded any receivables or amounts for lost profits, but expects to do so at a later date as information and analysis become more complete and recovery becomes probable.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Our discussions below in this Item 2 are based upon the more detailed discussions about our business, operations and financial condition included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 1, 2012, under Item 7 of that Form 10-K. Our discussions here focus on our results during the quarter and nine months ended, or as of, September 30, 2012, and the comparable periods of 2011 for comparison purposes, and, to the extent applicable, any material changes from the information discussed in that Form 10-K or other important intervening developments or information since that time. These discussions should be read in conjunction with that Form 10-K for more detailed and background information.

Forward-Looking Statements

This report contains statements which may constitute “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended by the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Important factors currently known to management that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in forward-looking statements include risks and uncertainties associated with economic conditions in the commercial interiors industry as well as the risks and uncertainties discussed under the heading “Risk Factors” included in Item 1A of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 1, 2012, which discussion is hereby incorporated by reference. The Company undertakes no obligation to update or revise forward-looking statements to reflect changed assumptions, the occurrence of unanticipated events or changes to future operating results over time.

2012 Restructuring Charges

In the first quarter of 2012, we committed to a new restructuring plan in our continuing efforts to reduce costs across our worldwide operations and more closely align our operations with reduced demand levels in certain markets. The plan primarily consisted of ceasing manufacturing and warehousing operations at our facility in Shelf, England. In connection with this restructuring plan, we incurred a pre-tax restructuring and asset impairment charge in the first quarter of 2012 in an amount of $16.3 million, as well as an additional related charge of $0.8 million in the third quarter of 2012. These charges are comprised of employee severance expenses of $6.2 million, other related exit costs of $1.6 million, and impairment of assets of approximately $9.3 million. Approximately $8 million of the charge will result in cash expenditures, primarily severance expense.

2011 Restructuring Charge

In the fourth quarter of 2011, we committed to a restructuring plan intended to reduce costs across our worldwide operations and more closely align our operations with reduced demand in certain markets. As a result of this plan, we incurred pre-tax restructuring and asset impairment charges of $5.8 million in the fourth quarter of 2011. The majority of this charge ($5.0 million) related to the severance of approximately 90 employees in Europe, Asia and the United States. The remainder of the charge ($0.8 million) related to contract termination and fixed asset impairment costs. Approximately $5.0 million of this charge will result in cash expenditures, primarily severance expenses. Actions and expenses related to this plan were substantially completed by the end of 2011.

Discontinued Operations – Sale of Bentley Prince Street

In the third quarter of 2012, we sold our Bentley Prince Street business segment. In accordance with applicable accounting standards, we have reported the results of operations for the former Bentley Prince Street business segment as “discontinued operations,” where applicable. Consequently, our discussion of sales and other results of operations (except for net income or loss amounts), including percentages derived from or based on such amounts, excludes these discontinued operations unless we indicate otherwise.

Our discontinued operations had net sales of $9.2 million and $24.4 million in the three-month periods ended September 30, 2012 and October 2, 2011, respectively, and had net sales of $57.0 million and $77.6 million in the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2012 and October 2, 2011, respectively (these results are included in our statements of operations as part of the “Loss from Discontinued Operations, Net of Taxes”). Loss from discontinued operations, inclusive of the loss on disposal as well as costs to sell the business, net of tax, was $16.8 million in the three-month period ended September 30, 2012, compared with income from discontinued operations of $0.5 million in the three-month period ended October 2, 2011. During the nine-month period ended September 30, 2012, inclusive of the loss on disposal as well as costs to sell the business, net of tax, the loss from discontinued operations was $17.0 million, compared with income of $1.5 million in the nine-month period ended October 2, 2011.

For additional information on these discontinued operations, please see Note 10 in the Notes to Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements included in Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Fire at Australia Facility

In July 2012, a fire occurred at our manufacturing facility in Picton, Australia. The fire caused extensive damage to the facility, as well as disruption to business activity in the region. We have taken steps towards re-adapting our supply chain with product from our facilities in China, Thailand, the U.S. and Europe. While this is being executed with success, there were, as expected, delays in shipments that affected sales for the third quarter. At this time, it is difficult to quantify the financial impacts of the fire, but we believe it negatively affected net sales by approximately $7-8 million during the third quarter. For additional information on the fire, please see Note 15 in the Notes to Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements included in Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

General

During the quarter ended September 30, 2012, we had net sales of $242.9 million, compared with net sales of $248.7 million in the third quarter last year. Fluctuations in currency exchange rates negatively impacted 2012 third quarter sales by 2% (approximately $6 million), compared with the prior year period. During the first nine months of fiscal year 2012, we had net sales of $682.4 million, compared with net sales of $708.6 million in the first nine months of last year. Fluctuations in currency exchange rates negatively impacted sales in the first nine months of 2012 by 2% (approximately $16 million), compared with the prior year period.

Included in our results for the third quarter of 2012 are a restructuring charge of $0.8 million and losses related to the Australia fire of $1.0 million. Included in our results for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 are restructuring charges of $17.1 million, as well as the same losses related to the Australia fire. The restructuring charges and Australia fire are described above.

During the third quarter of 2012, after the restructuring charge and fire losses described above, we had income from continuing operations of $11.1 million, or $0.17 per diluted share, compared with income from continuing operations of $11.7 million, or $0.18 per diluted share, in the third quarter of 2011. During the nine months ended September 30, 2012, after the restructuring charges and fire losses described above, we had income from continuing operations of $15.5 million, or $0.24 per diluted share, compared with income from continuing operations of $33.3 million, or $0.51 per diluted share, in the first nine months of 2011.

After the loss from discontinued operations discussed above, we had a net loss of $5.8 million, or $0.09 per diluted share, in the third quarter of 2012, compared with net income of $12.2 million, or $0.19 per diluted share, in the third quarter last year. For the nine-month period ended September 30, 2012, after the loss from discontinued operations, we had a net loss of $1.5 million, or $0.02 per diluted share, compared with net income of $34.8 million, or $0.53 per diluted share, in the prior year period.

Net Sales

Below we provide information regarding net sales, and analyze those results for the three-month and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2012, and October 2, 2011, respectively.

	Three Months Ended — Sept. 30, 2012	Oct. 2, 2011	Percentage — Change

For the quarter ended September 30, 2012, net sales declined $5.9 million (2.4%) versus the comparable period in the prior year. On a geographic basis, the Americas was the only region to see an increase (up 6%) versus the prior year. Although sales in Europe were up versus the third quarter of 2011 on a local currency basis (up 3%), currency fluctuations led to a decrease of 8% as reported in U.S. dollars. Largely due to the impact of the fire in our Australia facility, Asia-Pacific sales declined 19% versus the comparable period of the prior year. In the Americas, we experienced sales increases in most market segments, with retail (up 33%), corporate office (up 5%) and residential (up 10%) leading the growth. The improvement in residential sales was due to the continued roll-out of our FLOR store locations. The only sales declines in the Americas during the third quarter of 2012 were in the government (down 12%) and education (down 4%) market segments. These decreases were a result of curtailment of government spending programs versus last year. In local currency, Europe experienced an increase in the corporate office market segment (up 7%) and essentially flat sales in most other market segments. As reported in U.S. dollars, the sales decrease in Europe was due largely to currency fluctuations, as in U.S. dollars almost all market segments showed a decline, with the largest being in the corporate office (down 5%) and government (down 16%) market segments. In Asia-Pacific, nearly all market segments declined. As noted above, the delay in shipments caused by the fire in our Australian facility was a significant factor in this sales decline.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2012, net sales declined $26.1 million (3.7%) versus the comparable period in the prior year. The Americas region experienced sales growth of 4%, which was offset by sales decreases in Europe (down 8%) and Asia-Pacific (down 18%). In local currency, Europe experienced a sales increase of 1%. In the Americas, the sales increase was led by the retail (up 16%), corporate office (up 3%) and residential (up 25%) market segments. As in the third quarter comparison set forth above, the residential segment growth is largely attributable to the continued FLOR store roll-out. In Europe, we experienced sales decreases in all market segments as reported on a U.S. dollar basis, but in local currency we experienced increases in the corporate office (up 5% in local currency) and residential (up 3% in local currency) market segments. These local currency increases were somewhat mitigated by declines in the government (down 12% in local currency) and retail (down 22% in local currency) market segments. In Asia-Pacific, sales were negatively impacted by the fire at our Australia facility, as well as a decline in the education segment (down 55%) due to curtailed stimulus spending versus the comparable period in prior year, particularly in Australia. Other declines in the Asia-Pacific region were seen in the corporate office (down 8%) and hospitality (down 51%) market segments. These declines were offset to as small extent by increases in the government (up 8%) and residential (up over 100%) market segments.

Cost and Expenses

The following table presents, on a consolidated basis for our operations, our overall cost of sales and selling, general and administrative expenses for the three-month and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2012, and October 2, 2011, respectively:

Cost and Expenses	Three Months Ended — Sept. 30, 2012	Oct. 2, 2011	Percentage — Change
	(In thousands)
Cost of sales	$ 160,002	$ 161,536	(0.9	)%
Selling, general and administrative expenses	58,014	62,574	(7.3	)%
Total	$ 218,016	$ 224,110	(2.7	)%

Cost and Expenses	Nine Months Ended — Sept. 30, 2012	Oct. 2, 2011	Percentage — Change
	(In thousands)
Cost of sales	$ 450,344	$ 453,700	(0.7	)%
Selling, general and administrative expenses	168,134	184,110	(8.7	)%
Total	$ 618,478	$ 637,810	(3.0	)%

For the three months ended September 30, 2012, our cost of sales decreased $1.5 million (0.9%) versus the comparable period in 2011. This decrease is the result of a $4 million benefit from currency translation compared with the prior year period, partially offset by (1) a 2-3% increase in raw material prices versus the comparable period in 2011, and (2) lower absorption of fixed costs due to lower production volumes, particularly as a result of the fire at our Australia facility in the third quarter of 2012. Due to these factors, as a percentage of sales, cost of sales increased to 65.9% versus 64.9% in the comparable period in 2011. With the improvements in our supply chain to Australia going forward, as well as the realization of further savings related to our restructuring initiatives in prior periods, we believe we will begin to see an increase in gross margin.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2012, our cost of sales decreased $3.4 million (0.7%) versus the comparable period in 2011. This decrease is the result of a $10 million benefit from currency translation compared with the prior year period, partially offset by (1) a 2-3% increase in raw material prices versus the comparable period in 2011, and (2) lower absorption of fixed manufacturing costs associated with lower production volumes versus the nine-month period last year. As noted above, we believe that savings related to our restructuring plans will enhance gross margin going forward.

For the three months ended September 30, 2012, our selling, general and administrative expenses decreased approximately $4.6 million (7.3%) versus the comparable period in 2011. Fluctuations in currency exchange rates accounted for approximately $1.5 million of the decrease. A significant component of this decrease was a $1.7 million reduction in selling and marketing expenses due to our continued focus on costs controls and the impacts of our previously-enacted restructuring plans, and a portion was due to lower sales volumes versus the third quarter of 2011. Administrative expenses also experienced a decline in the third quarter of 2012 (down $2.1 million) versus the prior year period, as the effects of our restructuring programs in late 2011 and early 2012 became more apparent. As a result of these items, as a percentage of sales, selling, general and administrative expenses declined to 23.9%, versus 25.2% in the three months ended October 1, 2012.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2012, our selling, general and administrative expenses decreased approximately $16.0 million (8.7%) versus the comparable period in 2011. Fluctuations in currency exchange rates accounted for approximately $4 million of the decrease. The overall decrease is due to lower administrative costs of approximately $13 million as a result of both lower levels of non-cash incentive compensation in 2012 versus 2011 as well as savings from the above-mentioned restructuring plans in late 2011 and early 2012. In addition, selling and marketing expenses declined by approximately $2.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2012, versus the comparable period in prior year, also as a result of our restructuring plans. Due to these factors, as a percentage of sales, selling, general and administrative expenses decreased to 24.6%, versus 26.0% in the first nine months of 2011.

Interest Expense

For the three-month period ended September 30, 2012, our interest expense decreased $0.1 million to $6.3 million, versus $6.4 million in the comparable period of 2011. For the nine months ended September 30, 2012, our interest expense decreased approximately $0.8 million to $19.1 million, versus $20.0 million in the comparable period of 2011.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

General

At September 30, 2012, we had $91.7 million in cash. At that date, we had no borrowings and $3.9 million in letters of credit outstanding under our domestic revolving credit facility, and no borrowings outstanding under our European credit facility. As of September 30, 2012, we could have incurred $60.5 million of additional borrowings under our domestic revolving credit facility and €20.0 million (approximately $25.7 million) of additional borrowings under our European credit facility. We also could have incurred an additional $18.9 million of borrowings under our other credit facilities in place at other non-U.S. subsidiaries.

Analysis of Cash Flows

Our primary sources of cash during the nine months ended September 30, 2012 were (1) $32.7 million of net proceeds from the sale of our Bentley Prince Street business segment, (2) $29.6 million due to decreases in accounts receivable, and (3) $10.0 million of funds received from our insurer related to the fire at our facility in Picton Australia. Our primary uses of cash during this period were (1) $28.8 million for capital expenditures, (2) $11.5 million for the redemption of the remainder of our former 9.5% Senior Subordinated Notes, and (3) $6.7 million due to an increase in inventory.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Our discussion below in this Item 3 is based upon the more detailed discussions of our market risk and related matters included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 1, 2012, under Item 7A of that Form 10-K. Our discussion here focuses on the period ended September 30, 2012, and any material changes from (or other important intervening developments since the time of) the information discussed in that Form 10-K. This discussion should be read in conjunction with that Form 10-K for more detailed and background information.

At September 30, 2012, we recognized a $4.5 million increase in our foreign currency translation adjustment account compared to January 1, 2012, primarily because of the weakening of the U.S. dollar against certain foreign currencies, including the British Pound and the Australian dollar.

Sensitivity Analysis. For purposes of specific risk analysis, we use sensitivity analysis to measure the impact that market risk may have on the fair values of our market sensitive instruments.

To perform sensitivity analysis, we assess the risk of loss in fair values associated with the impact of hypothetical changes in interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates on market sensitive instruments. The market value of instruments affected by interest rate and foreign currency exchange rate risk is computed based on the present value of future cash flows as impacted by the changes in the rates attributable to the market risk being measured. The discount rates used for the present value computations were selected based on market interest and foreign currency exchange rates in effect at September 30, 2012. The values that result from these computations are compared with the market values of these financial instruments at September 30, 2012. The differences in this comparison are the hypothetical gains or losses associated with each type of risk.

As of September 30, 2012, based on a hypothetical immediate 150 basis point increase in interest rates, with all other variables held constant, the market value of our fixed rate long-term debt would be impacted by a net decrease of approximately $12.4 million. Conversely, a 150 basis point decrease in interest rates would result in a net increase in the market value of our fixed rate long-term debt of approximately $9.1 million.

As of September 30, 2012, a 10% decrease or increase in the levels of foreign currency exchange rates against the U.S. dollar, with all other variables held constant, would result in a decrease in the fair value of our financial instruments of $9.2 million or an increase in the fair value of our financial instruments of $7.5 million, respectively. As the impact of offsetting changes in the fair market value of our net foreign investments is not included in the sensitivity model, these results are not indicative of our actual exposure to foreign currency exchange risk.
