"Our flexibility in product categories, inventory allocation, real estate locations and in-store layout allow us to remain a strong performer despite the on-going challenges in the home furnishings sector," said Kathleen Mason, President and Chief Executive Officer. "The dividend declared by our Board and the banking syndicates approval of our credit facility amendment both reflect the strength of our balance sheet, our ability to generate positive cash flow and the continued execution of our operating plan by management."

Net income for the first quarter ended March 31, 2007 was $1.0 million or $0.03 per diluted share, compared to $6.5 million or $0.16 per diluted share for the first quarter of 2006, a decrease of $5.5 million or $0.13 per diluted share.
