PART I
ITEM 1. BUSINESS.
GENERAL
Haverty Furniture Companies, Inc. (the "Company" or "Havertys") is a
full-service home furnishings retailer. The Company operates 95 showrooms in
12 contiguous states in the Southeast and Southwest. Havertys provides its
customers with a wide selection of furniture and accessories primarily in the
middle to upper-middle price ranges. As an added convenience to its customers,
the Company offers financing through a revolving charge credit plan. The
Company originated as a family business in 1885 in Atlanta, Georgia. Havertys
has been a publicly held company since 1929, incorporated under the laws of the
State of Maryland. The Company's corporate headquarters are located at 866
West Peachtree Street, N.W., Atlanta, Georgia.
BUSINESS STRATEGY
The Company serves a target customer in the middle to upper-middle income
ranges. Havertys has attracted this discriminating and demanding consumer by
focusing on the key elements: stores, merchandise price and selection, and
customer service. The Company has made investments in technology and in new
retail stores. Havertys plans to continue to expand into new markets and
strengthen its position in its current market areas utilizing existing
distribution infrastructure.
STORES
The Company, as of December 31, 1996, operates 95 stores serving 48
markets in 12 states. Havertys has executed a program of remodeling and
expanding showrooms and replacing smaller stores in growth markets with a new
larger format store. Accordingly, the number of retail locations has increased
by only five since the year ended 1994, but total square footage has increased
25%. Havertys entered three new markets during 1996: Wichita, Kansas, and
Asheville and Fayetteville, North Carolina. The expansion into the new markets
in North Carolina was not with newly constructed stores. These locations are
leased from their owners, former independent furniture operators, and were
remodeled and reopened. The Company will use this approach and lease, remodel
and open two stores during 1997 in Louisville and Lexington, Kentucky.
Havertys also plans to open five newly constructed replacement stores in 1997.
MERCHANDISING
The Company is able to tailor its merchandise presentation to the needs
and tastes of the local market. All five regional managers are included in
Havertys' buying team, and reflect their preferences in a merchandising mix
that is roughly 20 to 25 percent regionalized. Each local market manager can
then select from region specific merchandise items that are appropriate to that
particular metropolitan area. On other than specific merchandise advertised
chain wide, these managers also are responsible for pricing in their respective
markets. This allows Havertys to be competitively priced in each city and
maintain good gross margins.
The Company's merchandising team develops a broad selection of merchandise
for its customers at values targeted for their income levels. Management has
avoided the lower, more promotional price-driven merchandise category that many
national chains have emphasized, giving Havertys a unique position for a large
retailer. The Company selects its merchandise from a wide array of
manufacturers. During 1996, the Company purchased approximately 50% of its
volume from 10 vendors, creating significant purchasing power. Approximately
75% of the Company's volume was purchased from 30 vendors, which gives the
Company's customers an outstanding assortment, especially compared to
franchised retailers who offer only one manufacturer's product line. The
Company offers brands such as Drexel Heritage and Thomasville which are a
visible demonstration to the consumer of Havertys' market position. The
customer awareness of these quality names serves as an umbrella for all of the
Company's better-end merchandise.

===== ===== =====
DISTRIBUTION
The Company uses a regional warehouse distribution network to provide
central receiving points from vendors and distribution of product to local
market warehouses. Havertys operates three regional warehouses in Charlotte,
North Carolina; Jackson, Mississippi; and Ocala, Florida. The regional
warehouses serve all of the Company's local markets except for Dallas, Texas
and Atlanta, Georgia, which each have a regional-size warehouse. Havertys'
enhanced information system and just-in-time delivery practices have resulted
in the reduction of inventory in local market warehouses. This reduction has
allowed management to convert this warehouse space into prepping centers and
cross-dock locations for local deliveries.
The system currently in place will facilitate the implementation of
additional distribution enhancements. The regional warehouse concept and
positive vendor relationships have created additional opportunities to improve
inventory management. The Company has purchased and is testing new software
which will allow management to forecast inventory requirements and reorder
merchandise more precisely. Havertys is also developing a warehouse management
system to complement its JIT system and to provide additional efficiencies in
operations.
The Company is opening a new Dallas warehouse in March 1997. This
facility will have approximately 224,000 square feet of warehouse space which
is over 50,000 square feet smaller than the warehouse it replaces. The
implementation of the automated systems allows for efficient use of the new
facility's 50-foot high ceilings and over 2.3 million cubic feet of storage
space.
CREDIT OPERATIONS
The Company's customers are provided a revolving charge credit plan within
a credit limit determined by an on-line credit approval system. In 1996,
approximately 77% of Havertys' sales were transacted under various credit
programs resulting in net financings of over $300 million. The Company's
standard (non-promotional) credit service charge rates were 18% to 21% per
annum (except in Arkansas where it is 10%) depending on state laws and may vary
in the future with market conditions. Havertys offers a lower credit service
charge rate for individual purchases of over $3,000. Promotions which offer
interest-free periods for a specific period are also routinely used.
Management believes that responding to the terms of advertised financing
promotions offered by many of its competitors reduces the need to emphasize
off-price promotional activity and can stimulate sales. Under the Company's
credit programs, retroactive interest is not charged to customers who do not
completely pay off the balance during the free-interest or deferred payment
period unlike many competitors' credit programs.
Over the last five years, provisions for losses on customer accounts
receivable have averaged less than 1% of sales. The Company experienced a 1%
write-off of receivables in 1996 which is higher than normal for Havertys but
which management believes is low relative to the industry. Management believes
its rate of write-offs is comparatively low due to a thorough screening and
collection program and to the Company's attracting a more affluent customer
through its overall marketing programs.
2
4
During 1996, the Company consolidated its credit operations from 45
market-area locations to one corporate site in Chattanooga, Tennessee.
Management believes that this consolidation, while accretive to earnings in the
long-term via savings in general and administrative expenses, contributed to
higher delinquencies during the transition year.
COMPETITION
The retail sale of home furnishings is a highly fragmented and competitive
business. The Company believes that the primary elements of competition in its
industry are customer service, merchandise (quality, style, selection, price,
and display) and store location and design. The degree and source of
competition varies by geographic area. The Company competes with numerous
individual retail furniture stores as well as chains and the better department
stores. Department stores benefit competitively from more established name
recognition in specific markets, a larger customer base due to their
non-furnishings product lines and proprietary credit cards.
The Company believes it has uniquely positioned itself in the marketplace
with merchandise that appeals to customers who are somewhat more affluent than
those of most other competitive furniture store chains. Management believes
that this customer segment responds more cautiously to typical discount
promotions and focuses on the real value and customer service offered by a
retailer. The Company regards its experienced sales personnel and personalized
customer service as important factors in its competitive success. Lastly,
management believes its ability to make prompt delivery of orders through
maintenance of inventory and to tailor the inventory to a store's local demands
provides additional competitive advantages. The Company currently ranks among
the top ten in sales for full-service retail home furnishings store chains in
the United States, based on available industry data for 1995.
EMPLOYEES
As of December 31, 1996, the Company employed approximately 2,996
employees: 2,725 in individual retail store operations, 122 in its corporate
offices, 65 in its credit operations and 84 in its regional warehouses. No
employee of the Company is a party to any union contract and the Company
considers its employee relations to be good.
