Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

(1)

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.

(2)

Interim Financial Presentation

All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in the consolidated financial statements. 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, 2007 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 for the year ended June 30, 2007.

Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified in order for them to conform to the current year’s presentation. These changes were made for disclosure purposes only and did not have any impact on previously reported results of operations or shareholders’ equity.

Income Taxes -- Adoption of FIN 48

Effective July 1, 2007, we adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Interpretation No. ("FIN") 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes, an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes, which provides a comprehensive model for the recognition, measurement, presentation, and disclosure in a company’s financial statements of uncertain tax positions taken, or expected to be taken, on a tax return. Under FIN 48, if an income tax position exceeds a more likely than not (i.e. greater than 50%) probability of success upon tax audit, based solely on the technical merits of the position, the company is to recognize an income tax benefit in its financial statements. The tax benefits recognized are to be measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. If it is not more likely than not that the benefit will be sustained on its technical merits, no benefit is to be recorded. Uncertain tax positions that relate only to timing of when an item is included on a tax return are considered to have met the recognition threshold for purposes of applying FIN 48. Therefore, if it can be established that the only uncertainty is when an item is taken on a tax return, such positions have satisfied the recognition step for purposes of FIN 48 and uncertainty related to timing should be assessed as part of measurement.

FIN 48 requires that a liability associated with an unrecognized tax benefit be classified as a long-term liability except for the amount for which a cash payment is expected to be made within one year. Further, companies are required to accrue interest and related penalties, if applicable, on all tax exposures consistent with the respective jurisdictional tax laws.

The adoption of FIN 48 resulted in a non-cash transition (cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle) adjustment of $0.7 million, which was recorded as an increase to beginning retained earnings. The transition adjustment is a result, primarily, of tax positions associated with state income tax exposures where the original tax benefit related to periods dating back to 1998. Our continuing practice is to recognize interest and penalties related to income tax matters as a component of income tax expense.

ETHAN ALLEN INTERIORS INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

As of July 1, 2007, upon adoption of FIN 48, we had unrecognized income tax benefits totaling $4.8 million and related accrued interest and penalties of $1.4 million (after related tax benefits), all of which was reclassified from current to long-term liabilities upon adoption. If recognized, essentially all of the unrecognized tax benefits and related interest and penalties would be recorded as a benefit to income tax expense.

Since adopting FIN 48, our unrecognized tax benefits have decreased by $0.7 million and related interest and penalties have increased by $0.3 million. These changes resulted from a settlement reached during the quarter ended December 31, 2007 with New York State for tax years 1998 through 2003 that reduced the unrecognized tax benefits and related interest by $1.5 million and was partially offset by additional unrecognized tax benefits of $0.5 million in state exposures for our 2007 tax year. We do not currently anticipate significant changes in such amounts over the next twelve months.

As of December 31, 2007 we remained subject to examination in the following major tax jurisdictions for the tax years indicated below:

Major Tax Jurisdictions	Open Audit Years
North America – United States:
New York	2004 through 2007
New Jersey	2001 through 2007
Massachusetts	2001 through 2007
North Carolina	2001 through 2007

costs, and $10.1 million, which was non-cash in nature, was related to fixed asset impairment charges, primarily for real property and machinery and equipment, stemming from the decision to cease production activities. During the three months ended March 31, 2007 and December 31, 2006, adjustments totaling $0.2 million and $0.3 million, respectively, were recorded to reverse remaining previously established accruals which were no longer deemed necessary. There were no restructuring and impairment charges associated with plant consolidations recorded during the six months ended December 31, 2007.

As of December 31, 2007, all restructuring related obligations for severance and employee benefits have been satisfied and any remaining accrual balances which were deemed unnecessary have been reversed. No restructuring reserves remain in the Consolidated Balance Sheets as accrued expenses within current liabilities.

(6)

Business Acquisitions

In October 2007, we acquired, in a single transaction, two Ethan Allen retail design centers from an independent retailer for consideration of approximately $2.1 million of cash and forgiveness of receivables, assumed customer deposits of $1.1 million and other liabilities of $0.1 million. As a result of this acquisition, we recorded additional inventory of $1.9 million, other assets of 0.4 million, and goodwill of $1.0 million.

In October of 2007, Ethan Allen Operations, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Global, acquired a cut and sew upholstery facility from Americraft Leather for total consideration of approximately $4.4 million. The facility, which contains 40,000 square feet of manufacturing space and employs 165 people, is located in Silao, in the state of Guanajuato, Mexico. As a result of this acquisition, our initial purchase price allocation resulted in additional property, plant and equipment of $2.7 million, inventory of $1.1 million, and goodwill of $0.6 million.

The Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for the six months ended December 31, 2007 reflect $0.6 million of consideration paid during the period in connection with the acquisition of a retail design center with an effective (closing) date of June 30, 2007 and for which funding did not occur until July 2, 2007.

During November and December 2006, we acquired, in three separate transactions, five Ethan Allen retail interior design centers (“IDCs”) from three independent retailers for consideration of approximately $3.9 million of cash and forgiveness of receivables. As a result of these acquisitions, we recorded additional inventory and other assets of $2.7 million and $0.8 million, respectively, and assumed customer deposits and other liabilities of $1.3 million and $0.3 million, respectively. Goodwill associated with these acquisitions totaled $2.0 million.

In September 2006, we acquired, in a single transaction, two Ethan Allen retail design centers from an independent retailer for consideration of approximately $6.3 million of cash and forgiveness of receivables. As a result of this acquisition, we recorded additional inventory and other assets (primarily real estate) of $0.9 million and $5.5 million, respectively, and assumed customer deposits and other liabilities of $0.4 million and $0.1 million, respectively. Goodwill associated with this acquisition totaled $0.4 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.

Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

As of December 31, 2007, we had goodwill, including product technology, of $74.5 million and other indefinite-lived intangible assets of $19.7 million. Comparable balances as of June 30, 2007 were $72.8 million and $19.7 million, respectively.

Goodwill in the retail and wholesale segments was $46.3 million and $28.2 million, respectively, at December 31, 2007 and $45.3 million and $27.5 million, respectively, at June 30, 2007. The wholesale segment, at both dates, includes additional indefinite-lived intangible assets of $19.7 million which represent Ethan Allen trade names.

In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, we do not amortize goodwill or other indefinite-lived intangible assets but, rather, evaluate such assets for impairment on an annual basis and between annual tests 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 during the fourth quarter of each fiscal year. No impairment losses have been recorded on our goodwill or other indefinite-lived intangible assets as a result of applying the provisions of SFAS No. 142.

(8) Borrowings

Total debt obligations at December 31, 2007 and June 30, 2007 consist of the following (in thousands)

	December 31, 2007		June 30, 2007
5.375% Senior Notes due 2015	$	198,757	$	198,677
Industrial revenue bonds		3,855		3,855

Total debt		202,968		202,908
Less: current maturities		40		40

Total long-term debt	$	202,928	$	202,868

On September 27, 2005, we completed a private offering of $200.0 million of 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 beginning on April 1, 2006.

ETHAN ALLEN INTERIORS INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

Proceeds received in connection with the issuance of the Senior Notes, net of a related discount of $1.6 million, totaled $198.4 million. We intend to use the net proceeds from the offering to expand our retail network, invest in our manufacturing and logistics operations, and for other general corporate purposes. As of December 31, 2007, outstanding borrowings related to this transaction have been included in the Consolidated Balance Sheets within long-term debt. The discount on the Senior Notes is being amortized to interest expense over the life of the related debt.

In connection with the offering, debt issuance costs totaling $2.0 million were incurred related, primarily, to banking, legal, accounting, rating agency, and printing services. As of December 31, 2007, these costs have been included in the Consolidated Balance Sheets as deferred financing costs within other assets and are being amortized to interest expense over the life of the Senior Notes.

Also in connection with the issuance of the Senior Notes, Global, in July and August 2005, entered into 6 separate forward contracts to hedge the risk-free interest rate associated with $108.0 million of the related debt in order to minimize 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 and settlement of the related forward contracts, losses totaling $0.9 million were incurred representing the change in the fair value of the forward contracts since their respective trade dates. In accordance with SFAS No. 133, as amended, it was determined that a portion of the related losses was the result of hedge ineffectiveness and, as such, $0.1 million of the losses was included, within interest and other related financing costs, in the Consolidated Statement of Operations for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2006. The balance of the losses has been included (on a net-of-tax basis) in the Consolidated Balance Sheets within accumulated other comprehensive income and is being amortized to interest expense over the life of the Senior Notes. The remaining unamortized balance of these forward contract losses totaled $0.6 million ($0.4 million, net-of-tax) at both December 31, 2007 and June 30, 2007.

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.

As of December 31, 2007, we and/or our subsidiaries have been named as a potentially responsible party ("PRP") with respect to the remediation of 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"). The sites are located in Southington, Connecticut; High Point, North Carolina; and Atlanta, Georgia.

In addition, during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2007, our liability with respect to a fourth site located in Lyndonville, Vermont was resolved. We had previously received a certificate of construction completion for this location, subject to certain limited conditions which were the obligation of another PRP. In July 2007, we obtained the final certificate of construction completion advising us that all conditions had been met.

We do not anticipate incurring significant costs with respect to the Southington, Connecticut, High Point, North Carolina, or Atlanta, Georgia sites as we believe that we are not a major contributor based on the very small volume of waste generated by us in relation to total volume at those sites. 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

ETHAN ALLEN INTERIORS INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

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. In all three cases, the other PRPs consist of local, regional, national and multi-national companies.

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.

In addition, 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. To date, no further notice has been received from the State and the State has not yet conducted an initial environmental study at this site.

As of December 31, 2007, 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 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.

Share-Based Compensation

On October 10, 2007, the Company’s Board of Directors and M. Farooq Kathwari, our 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, on October 10, 2007, options to purchase 150,000 shares of our common stock. These options were issued at an exercise price of $34.03 (the closing price of a share of our common stock on the New York Stock Exchange as of such date), and vest ratably over a 3-year period. The Agreement provides for additional grants of 90,000 and 60,000 shares on July 1, 2008 and July 1, 2009, respectively, with exercise prices equal to the closing price of a share of our common stock on the New York Stock Exchange as of such dates. The 2008 grant will vest ratably over a 2-year period and the 2009 grant will vest ratably over a 1-year period. All options awarded under the Agreement have a contractual term of 10 years.

ETHAN ALLEN INTERIORS INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

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. Mr. Kathwari will also receive, as per the Agreement, additional restricted share grants of 20,000 shares on each of July 1, 2008 and July 1, 2009. Each of these awards will also vest based on continuing service and the Company’s stock performance as compared to the Standard and Poor’s 500 index for the 3-year period subsequent to the relevant award dates.

Also in connection with the Agreement, Mr. Kathwari received 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.

Weighted average common shares outstanding, adjusted for diluted calculation		29,542		32,503		30,003		32,567

As of December 31, 2007 and 2006, stock options to purchase 1,638,060 and 345,256 common shares, respectively, had exercise prices which exceeded the average market price of our common stock for the corresponding periods. These options have been excluded from the respective diluted earnings per share calculation as their impact is anti-dilutive.

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, prior service costs and actuarial gains and losses, fair value 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.

Our accumulated other comprehensive income, which is comprised of losses on certain derivative instruments and accumulated foreign currency translation adjustments, totaled $2.0 million at December 31, 2007 and $1.4 million at June 30, 2007. 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)

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 off-shore 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, 2007 and 2006 is provided below:

	Three Months Ended December 31,						Six Months Ended December 31,
	2007			2006			2007			2006
Case Goods		43	%		45	%		45	%		45	%
Upholstered Products		40			39			39			39
Home Accessories and Other		17			16			16			16

		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.

Subsequent Events

Restructuring, impairment and other related charges

On January 10, 2008, we announced a plan to consolidate the operations of certain retail design centers and service centers. For the most part, business currently serviced by these locations will be transferred to other locations serving the same general market areas. All customer orders will continue to be serviced in the ordinary course of business. About half of the full and part-time positions affected by this decision are expected to transfer into nearby operations.

Stock Repurchases and Remaining Authorization

Subsequent to December 31, 2007 and through the date of this filing we repurchased, in five separate open market transactions, an additional 0.2 million shares of our common stock at a total cost of $5.3 million, representing an average price per share of $24.10. As of the date of this filing, we had a remaining Board authorization to repurchase 1.7 million shares.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141 (revised 2007), Business Combinations (SFAS No. 141(R)), which replaces SFAS No. 141. SFAS No. 141(R) 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. SFAS No. 141(R) 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). As such, we are currently in the process of evaluating the impact of this authoritative guidance on our consolidated financial statements.

In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities, which allows the Company to choose to measure selected financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value. Unrealized gains and losses on items for which the fair value option has been elected are reported in earnings. SFAS No. 159 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007 (July 1, 2008 for the Company). As such, we are currently in the process of evaluating the impact of this authoritative guidance on our consolidated financial statements.

In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements, which provides a single definition of fair value, and requires additional disclosure about the use of fair value to measure assets and liabilities. SFAS No. 157 emphasizes that fair value is a market-based measurement defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Thus, SFAS No. 157 adheres to a definition of fair value based upon exit-price as opposed to entry-price (i.e. the price paid to acquire an asset or liability). This authoritative guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007 (July 1, 2008 for the Company). As such, we are currently in the process of evaluating the impact of this authoritative guidance on our consolidated financial statements.

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 for the year ended June 30, 2007.

Forward-Looking Statements

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 for the year ended June 30, 2007 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.

Quarter Ended December 31, 2007 Compared to Quarter Ended December 31, 2006

Consolidated revenue for the three months ended December 31, 2007 increased by $2.1 million, or 0.8%, to $259.5 million, from $257.4 million for the three months ended December 31, 2006. Net sales for the period largely reflect the delivery of product associated with booked orders and backlog existing as of the end of the preceding quarter. During the quarter, sales were positively impacted by (i) our continued efforts to reposition the retail network, and (ii) new product introductions. These factors were partially offset by a weak retail environment for home furnishings likely attributable, to some degree, to continued economic concerns, particularly as it relates to the sub-prime mortgage crisis.

To date, our repositioning of the retail network has involved three primary elements: the opening of larger, new or relocated design centers in more prominent locations; development of a more focused advertising campaign to highlight our solutions-based approach and position Ethan Allen as an authority in style and design; and investment within the retail network to strengthen the existing management structure. Implementation of our project management initiative, which has resulted in the promotion and/or hiring of more than 300 project managers, has enabled us to increase the level of service, professionalism, interior design competence, efficiency, and effectiveness of retail design center personnel. With project managers actively partnering with design consultants and their customers, we believe we have improved the customer service experience and facilitated, to some degree, better awareness of potential cross-selling opportunities.

Wholesale revenue for the second quarter of fiscal 2008 decreased by $9.8 million, or 5.9%, to $155.9 million from $165.7 million in the prior year comparable period. The quarter-over-quarter decrease was primarily attributable to a decline in the incoming order rate as a result of the softer retail environment for home furnishings noted during the period.

Retail revenue from Ethan Allen-owned design centers for the three months ended December 31, 2007 increased by $15.2 million, or 8.6%, to $192.6 million from $177.4 million for the three months ended December 31, 2006.The increase in retail sales by Ethan Allen-owned design centers was attributable to an increase in sales generated by newly opened (including relocated) or acquired design centers of $20.1 million. These favorable variances were partially offset by (i) reduced revenue from sold and closed design centers, which generated $3.9 million fewer sales in the second quarter of fiscal 2008 as compared to the same period in fiscal 2007, and (ii) a decrease in comparable design center delivered sales of $1.0 million, or 0.6%. The number of Ethan Allen-owned design centers increased to 160 as of December 31, 2007 as compared to 149 as of December 31, 2006. During that twelve month period, we acquired 7 design centers from independent retailers and opened 12 design centers (5 of which were relocations), and closed 3 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 increased 1.6% while comparable design centers written business decreased 7.0%. Over that same period, wholesale orders decreased 1.2%. Retail written business likely reflects (i) our continued efforts to reposition the retail network, (ii) recent product introductions, and (iii)

ETHAN ALLEN INTERIORS INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

our continued use of national television as an advertising medium. These factors have likely been offset, to some degree, by the softer retail environment for home furnishings noted throughout the period. Wholesale written business reflects the impact of the aforementioned factors.

Gross profit increased during the quarter to $139.5 million from $133.8 million in the prior year comparable quarter. The $5.7 million, or 4.3%, increase in gross profit was primarily attributable to a shift in sales mix with retail sales representing a higher proportionate share of total sales in the current quarter (74%) compared to the prior year period (69%), and (ii) improved performance within our remaining product sourcing operations, including a reduction in overhead as a result of past plant closures and price stabilization with regard to the selected raw materials. These favorable factors were partially offset by (i) an overall decrease in shipments within the wholesale segment, and (ii) a shift in product mix within the upholstery division. Consolidated gross margin increased to 53.7% for the second quarter of fiscal 2008 from 52.0% in the prior year quarter 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, 2007 and 2006:

Operating expenses increased $8.7 million, or 9.0%, to $105.9 million, or 40.8% of sales, in the current quarter from $97.2 million, or 37.8% of sales, in the prior year quarter. The increase was primarily attributable to increased costs associated with occupying and operating eleven additional design centers since last year at this time plus sales volume related costs on higher sales within retail. These include our continued efforts to reposition the retail network which, during the period, resulted in higher costs associated with occupancy, designer compensation, managerial salaries and benefits, and delivery and warehousing. These increases were partially offset by decreased costs associated with our distribution operations.

Consolidated operating income for the three month period ended December 31, 2007 totaled $33.5 million, or 12.9% of sales, as compared to $36.5 million, or 14.2% of sales, for the three months ended December 31, 2006.This represents a decrease of $3.0 million which was attributable to an increase in period-over-period operating expenses, partially offset by an increase in gross profit, both of which were discussed previously.

Wholesale operating income for the three months ended December 31, 2007 totaled $26.4 million, or 16.9% of sales, as compared to $30.1 million, or 18.2% of sales, in the prior year comparable quarter. The decrease of $3.7 million was primarily attributable to (i)a decrease in sales volume, and (ii) a shift in product mix within the upholstery division. These unfavorable factors were partially offset by (i) improved performance within our remaining product sourcing operations, including a reduction in overhead as a result of past plant closures and price stabilization with regard to the selected raw materials, and (ii) lower distribution costs.

Retail operating income increased $0.6 million to $6.4 million, or 3.3% of sales, for the second quarter of fiscal 2008 from $5.8 million, or 3.3% of sales, for the second quarter of fiscal 2007. The increase in retail operating income generated by Ethan Allen-owned design centers was primarily attributable to higher sales volume generated by newly-opened (including relocations) and acquired design centers. These favorable variances were partially offset by (i) higher operating expenses as a result of our continued efforts to reposition the retail network including costs for newly opened (including relocated) and acquired design centers, and (ii) increased costs driven by higher sales volume including commissions and warehousing costs.

Interest and other miscellaneous income, net decreased $0.4 million from the prior year comparable quarter. The decrease was due, primarily to a decrease in investment income resulting from lower cash and short-term investment balances maintained during the current period and lower rates of interest, partially offset by gains recorded in connection with the sale of selected real estate assets.

Interest and other related financing costs amounted to $2.9 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.

ETHAN ALLEN INTERIORS INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

Income tax expense for the three months ended December 31, 2007 totaled $12.1 million as compared to $13.4 million for the three months ended December 31, 2006. Our effective tax rate for the current and prior year quarters was 37.0%. Factors affecting the effective tax rate include the benefits derived from the manufacturers’ deduction provided for under The Jobs Creation Act of 2004 and certain tax planning initiatives. Offsetting these items were the adverse effects of recently-enacted changes within certain state tax legislation, increased state income tax liability arising in connection with the operation of a greater number of Company-owned design centers, and increased foreign income tax liability associated with our five retail design centers operating in Canada and our manufacturing operation in Mexico.

For the three months ended December 31, 2007, we recorded net income of $20.6 million as compared to $22.8 million in the prior year comparable period. Net income per diluted share totaled $0.70 in both the current and prior year quarters.

Six Months Ended December 31, 2007 Compared to six Months Ended December 31, 2006

Consolidated revenue for the six months ended December 31, 2007 increased by $8.0 million, or 1.6%, to $508.2 million, from $500.2 million for the six months ended December 31, 2006. Net sales for the period largely reflect the delivery of product associated with booked orders and backlog existing as of the beginning of the period. During the six month period, sales were positively impacted by (i) our continued efforts to reposition the retail network, and (ii) new product introductions. These factors were partially offset by a weak retail environment for home furnishings likely attributable, to some degree, to continued economic concerns, particularly as it relates to the sub-prime mortgage crisis.

Wholesale revenue for the first six months of fiscal 2008 decreased by $9.0 million, or 2.8%, to $312.3 million from $321.3 million in the prior year comparable period. The decrease was primarily attributable a decline in the incoming order rate as a result of the softer retail environment for home furnishings noted during the period.

Retail revenue from Ethan Allen-owned design centers for the six months ended December 31, 2007 increased by $31.9 million, or 9.3%, to $375.3 million from $343.4 million for the six months ended December 31, 2006.This increase was attributable to an increase in sales generated by newly opened (including relocated) or acquired design centers of $38.5 million. This favorable variance was partially offset by (i) reduced revenue from sold and closed design centers, which generated $6.0 million fewer sales in the first six months of fiscal 2008 as compared to the same period in fiscal 2007, and (ii) a decrease in comparable design center delivered sales of $0.6 million, or 0.2%.

During the first six months of fiscal 2008, written business of Ethan Allen-owned design centers increased 5.9% and comparable design centers written business decreased 3.2% as compared to the prior year comparable period. Over that same period, wholesale orders decreased 5.0%. Retail written business likely reflects (i) our continued efforts to reposition the retail network, (ii) recent product introductions, and (iii) our continued use of national television as an advertising medium. These factors have likely been offset, to some degree, by the softer retail environment for home furnishings noted throughout the period. Wholesale written business reflects the impact of the aforementioned factors.

Gross profit increased during the first six months of fiscal 2008 to $272.9 million from $260.1 million in the prior year comparable period. The $12.8 million, or 4.9%, increase in gross profit was primarily attributable to (i) a shift in sales mix with retail sales representing a higher proportionate share of total sales in the current six month period (74%) compared to the prior year period (69%), and (ii) improved performance within our remaining product sourcing operations, including a reduction in overhead as a result of past plant closures and price stabilization with regard to the selected raw materials. These favorable factors were partially offset by (i) an overall decrease in shipments within the wholesale segment, and (ii) a shift in product mix within the upholstery division. Consolidated gross margin increased to 53.7% for the first six months of fiscal 2008 from 52.0% in the prior year comparable period 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, 2007 and 2006:

ETHAN ALLEN INTERIORS INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

On September 6, 2006, we announced a plan to close our Spruce Pine, North Carolina case goods manufacturing facility and convert our Atoka, Oklahoma upholstery manufacturing facility into a regional distribution center. In connection with this initiative, we permanently ceased production at both locations, allocating production among our remaining domestic manufacturing locations and selected offshore suppliers. The decision impacted approximately 465 employees with the reduction in headcount occurring during the second and third quarters of fiscal 2007. We recorded a pre-tax restructuring and impairment charge of $14.1 million during the quarter ended December 31, 2006, of which $4.0 million was related to employee severance and benefits and other plant exit costs, and $10.1 million, which was non-cash in nature, was related to fixed asset impairment charges, primarily for real property and machinery and equipment, stemming from the decision to cease production activities. During the three months ended March 31, 2007 and December 31, 2006, adjustments totaling $0.2 million and $0.3 million, respectively, were recorded to reverse remaining previously established accruals which were no longer deemed necessary.

Including the restructuring and impairment charge referred to above, operating expenses increased $2.3 million, or 1.1%, to $211.6 million, or 41.6% of sales, in the current six month period from $209.3 million, or 41.8% of sales, in the prior year comparable period. The increase was primarily attributable to increased costs associated with our continued efforts to reposition the retail network which, during the period, resulted in higher costs associated with occupancy, designer compensation, managerial salaries and benefits, and delivery and warehousing. These increases were partially offset by decreases associated with (i) the aforementioned prior period restructuring and impairment charge, and (ii) a reduction in costs associated with our distribution operations.

Including the restructuring and impairment charge in the year-to-date period referred to above, consolidated operating income for the six month period ended December 31, 2007 totaled $61.3 million, or 12.1% of sales, as compared to $50.8 million, or 10.1% of sales, for the six months ended December 31, 2006.This represents an increase of $10.5 million which was attributable to an increase in gross profit and lower total operating expenses including the restructuring and impairment charge recorded in the prior year period.

Wholesale operating income for the six months ended December 31, 2007 totaled $53.2 million, or 17.0% of sales, as compared to $41.6 million, or 12.9% of sales, in the prior year comparable period. The increase of $11.6 million was primarily attributable to (i)the prior period restructuring and impairment charge mentioned above, (ii) lower distribution costs, and (iii) improved performance within our remaining product sourcing operations, including a reduction in overhead as a result of past plant closures and price stabilization with regard to the selected raw materials. These factors were partially offset by (i) an overall decrease in wholesale shipments during the period, and (ii) a shift in product mix within the upholstery division.

Retail operating income decreased $1.4 million to $7.2 million, or 1.9% of sales, for the first six months of fiscal 2008 from $8.6 million, or 2.5% of sales, for the first six months of fiscal 2007. The decrease in retail operating income generated by Ethan Allen-owned design centers was primarily attributable to (i) higher operating expenses as a result of our continued efforts to reposition the retail network including costs for newly opened (including relocated) and acquired design centers, and (ii) increased costs driven by higher sales volume including commissions and warehousing costs. These unfavorable variances were partially offset by gross margin on higher sales volume generated by newly-opened (including relocations) and acquired design centers.

Interest and other miscellaneous income, net increased $0.3 million from the prior year comparable period. The increase was due, primarily, to gains recorded in connection with the sale of selected real estate assets, partially offset by a decrease in investment income resulting from lower cash and short-term investment balances maintained during the current period and lower rates of interest.

Interest and other related financing costs amounted to $5.9 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, 2007 totaled $22.4 million as compared to $18.5 million for the six months ended December 31, 2006. Our effective tax rate for the current six month period was 37.0%, down from

ETHAN ALLEN INTERIORS INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

37.2% in the prior year comparable period. The lower effective tax rate was a result, primarily, of the benefits derived from the manufacturers’ deduction provided for under The Jobs Creation Act of 2004 and certain tax planning initiatives. Partially offsetting these items were the adverse effects of recently-enacted changes within certain state tax legislation, increased state income tax liability arising in connection with the operation of a greater number of Company-owned design centers, and increased foreign income tax liability associated with our five retail design centers operating in Canada and our manufacturing operation in Mexico.

For the six months ended December 31, 2007, we recorded net income of $38.1 million as compared to $31.2 million in the prior year comparable period, which included the aforementioned restructuring and impairment charge. Net income per diluted share totaled $1.27 in the current period and $0.96 per diluted share in the prior year period.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of December 31, 2007, we maintained cash and cash equivalents totaling $86.3 million. Our principal sources of liquidity include cash and cash equivalents, cash flow from operations, and borrowing capacity under a $200.0 million revolving credit facility.

The credit facility includes an accordion feature which provides for an additional $100.0 million of liquidity, if needed, as well as sub-facilities for trade and standby letters of credit of $100.0 million and swingline loans of $5.0 million. The credit facility contains various covenants which may limit our ability to: incur debt; engage in mergers and consolidations; make restricted payments; sell certain assets; make investments; and issue stock. We are also required to meet certain financial covenants including a fixed charge coverage ratio, which shall not be less than 3.00 to 1 for any period of four consecutive fiscal quarters ended on or after June 30, 2005, and a leverage ratio, which shall not be greater than 3.00 to 1 at any time. As of December 31, 2007, we had satisfactorily complied with these covenants.

In addition, on September 27, 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 Ethan Allen Global, Inc. ("Global"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, and have an annual coupon rate of 5.375%. The net proceeds of $198.4 million are being utilized to expand our retail network, invest in our manufacturing and logistics operations, and for other general corporate purposes.

In connection with the issuance of the Senior Notes, Global, in July and August 2005, entered into 6 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 and settlement of the related forward contracts, losses totaling $0.9 million were incurred representing the change in the fair value of the forward contracts since their respective trade dates. In accordance with SFAS No. 133, Accounting for Certain Derivative Instruments and Certain Hedging Activities, as amended, it was determined that a portion of the related losses was the result of hedge ineffectiveness and, as such, $0.1 million of the losses was included, within interest and other related financing costs, in the Consolidated Statement of Operations for the three month period ended September 30, 2005. The balance of the losses is included (on a net-of-tax basis) in the Consolidated Balance Sheets within accumulated other comprehensive income and is being amortized to interest expense over the life of the Senior Notes. The remaining unamortized balance of these forward contract losses totaled $0.6 million ($0.4 million, net-of-tax) as of December 31, 2007.
