PART I
------

ITEM 1. BUSINESS.

The Company designs, manufactures and sells a broad range of interior
furnishings, principally draperies, curtains, shades, blinds, bedspreads,
valance boards, comforters, pillows and cushions. These products are sold to
original equipment manufacturers of recreational vehicles and manufactured
housing and to the hospitality industry (motels/hotels) either through
distributors or directly to the customers.

The Company has one industry segment and one class of products. The
business in which the Company is engaged is very competitive, and the Company
competes with manufacturers located throughout the country. However, no reliable
information is available to enable the Company to determine its relative
position among its competitors. The principal methods of competition are price,
design and service.

During 2002, one customer, Fleetwood Enterprises, accounted for
approximately 23.8% of the Company's total sales. In the event of the loss of
this customer, there would be a material adverse effect on the Company.
Fleetwood operates in the manufactured housing and recreational vehicle
industries.


1


The Company's backlog of orders at any given time is not material in
amount and is not significant in the business. No material portion of the
Company's sales or income is derived from customers in foreign countries.

The chief raw materials used by the Company are largely fabrics made
from both natural and man-made fibers. The raw materials are obtained primarily
from converters and mills. The Company is not dependent upon one or a very few
suppliers. Most of its suppliers are large firms with whom, in the opinion of
management, the Company enjoys good relationships. The Company has never
experienced any significant shortage in its supply of raw materials.

The Company has no significant patents, licenses, franchises,
concessions, trademarks or copyrights. Expenditures for research and development
during 2002 and 2001 were not significant.

Compliance with federal, state and local environmental protection
provisions is not expected to have a material effect upon the capital
expenditures, earnings or competitive position of the Company.

The Company employs approximately 580 sales, production, warehouse and
administrative employees and also uses the services of independent sales
representatives.

ITEM 2. PROPERTIES.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS.

Liquidity and Financial Resources:

The Company's financial condition continues to be strong, as evidenced
by the following statistical measures:

1) Working capital at December 28, 2002 was $6,191,028 compared
to $6,074,073 at December 29, 2001.

2) The current ratio was 2.49:1 at year-end 2002 compared to
2.56:1 at year-end 2001.

3) The liquid ratio was 1.43:1 at year-end 2002 compared to
1.59:1 at year-end 2001.

4) The long-term debt ratio was 9.97% at December 28, 2002
compared to 11.40% a year earlier.

The Company used $210,376 of working capital for purchases of Common
Stock to be held for the treasury.

Net accounts receivable decreased $110,748 (3.1%) and net inventories
increased $598,405 (15.8%). The increase in inventories is compared to an 11.1%
increase in sales for the year. Most of the increased inventories were required
for increased sales to the RV market. Also, late in fiscal 2002 the Company
began production of tent and awning products for the RV market, which required
additional inventories.

Capital expenditures for 2002 were $1,290,149 compared to $442,772 in
2001. Included in the capital expenditures for 2002 was $802,000 for the
purchase of the building which houses the Company's pleated shade business. This
building was previously leased. The Company expects to close on a $640,000
mortgage on this building during 2003.

The Company had no borrowings at year-end under its $5,000,000
revolving line-of-credit. Management believes that its liquidity and available
borrowing capacity are more than adequate to finance internal growth and any
additional acquisitions of businesses.

Results of Operations:

The following table shows the percentage relationship to net sales of
certain items in the Company's Statement of Earnings:

2002 2001 2000
---- ---- ----
Net sales ......................... 100.0% 100.0% 100.0%

2002 vs. 2001

Net sales for fiscal 2002 were $38,641,605 compared to $34,782,121 in fiscal
2001. The net sales increase was 11%. An increase in sales to the recreational
vehicle market more than offset the sales decreases experienced in the
manufactured housing market. The Recreational Vehicle Institute reported
increased vehicle shipments of 21% over 2001, one of the industries' best
performances in 25 years. The Manufactured Housing Institute reported a 13%
decline in unit production for 2002, the fourth consecutive year of declining
production. The industry manufactured 168,500 units in 2002 versus 373,100 units
in 1998 (a decline of 55%). Company sales to the hospitality industry were
virtually flat compared to the previous year.

Cost of goods sold as a percentage of sales was 78.4% in 2002 versus 78.3% in
2001. The unfavorable impact of product mix on the cost of goods sold was offset
by improvements in manufacturing efficiencies.

Selling and administrative expenses decreased to $6,082,129 in 2002 from
$6,092,740 in 2001. The 2001 selling and administrative expenses included
goodwill amortization of $104,589. Goodwill was not amortized in 2002 (per
compliance with Statements of Financial Accounting Standards No. 142). This
benefit was offset by increased wages and the initial charges relating to the
ongoing implementation of a Enterprise-Resource-Planning (ERP) system.

Net income was $1,384,379 in 2002 compared to $861,561 in 2001. Net income as a
percent of sales increased to 3.6% in 2002 compared to 2.5% in 2001. This was
due to a higher sales volume.


2001 vs. 2000

Net sales for the year 2001 were $34,782,121 compared to 2000 sales of
$42,609,584. Sales decreased in all markets the Company serves. The Manufactured
Housing Institute reported a 23% decline in nationwide shipments for the year
2001, while the Recreational Vehicle Institute reported a decrease of over 14%.

Cost of goods sold as a percentage of sales decreased to 78.3% in 2001 from
79.6% in 2000. This improvement was largely attributable to better material
utilization and, to a lesser extent, better labor efficiency. At the same time,
fixed expenses continued to be absorbed over a smaller sales volume.

Selling and administrative expenses decreased to $6,092,740 in 2001 from
$6,987,203 in 2000. This decrease came from a reduction in the administrative
workforce, and the charge for impairment of goodwill in 2000.

Income from continuing operations as a percent of sales increased to 2.5% in
2001 compared to 2.4% in 2000. This was achieved while 2001 sales decreased by
18.4% compared to 2000 sales.

Net income was $861,561 in 2001 compared to $133,198 in 2000. The year 2000 was
adversely affected by charges from discontinued operations.

or other employees who have a significant role in the
registrant's internal cont ls; and

6. The registrant's other certifying officer and I have indicated in this

controls or in other factors that could significantly affect internal
controls subsequent to the date of our most recent evaluation,
including any corrective actions with regard to significant
deficiencies and material weaknesses.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
----------------------------

To the Board of Directors
and Stockholders of
DECORATOR INDUSTRIES, INC.

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Decorator
Industries, Inc. (a Pennsylvania corporation) as of December 28, 2002
and December 29, 2001 and the related statements of earnings,
stockholders' equity and cash flows for each of the three fiscal years
in the period ended December 28, 2002. These financial statements are
the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is
to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our
audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally
accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that
we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about
whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An
audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the
amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also
includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant
estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall
financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a
reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above
present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of
Decorator Industries, Inc. as of December 28, 2002 and December 29,
2001, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of
the three fiscal years in the period ended December 28, 2002 in
conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United
States of America.

DECORATOR INDUSTRIES, INC.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(1) SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
------------------------------------------

Nature of Operations
--------------------

The Company designs, manufactures and sells a broad range of interior
furnishings, principally draperies, curtains, shades, blinds,
bedspreads, valance boards, comforters, pillows and cushions. These
products are sold to original equipment manufacturers of recreational
vehicles and manufactured housing and to the hospitality industry
(motels/hotels) either through distributors or directly to the
customers.

The Company has one industry segment and one class of products. The
business in which the Company is engaged is very competitive, and the
Company competes with manufacturers located throughout the country.
However, no reliable information is available to enable the Company to
determine its relative position among its competitors. The principal
methods of competition are price, design and service.

Principles of Consolidation
---------------------------

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the
Company and all subsidiary companies. All significant intercompany
accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Fiscal Year
-----------

The Company's fiscal year is a 52-53 week period ending the Saturday
nearest to December 31, which results in every sixth year containing 53
weeks. Fiscal year 2002 was a 52-week period ending December 28, 2002;
2001 was a 52-week period ending December 29, 2001; and 2000 was a
52-week period ending December 30, 2000.

Inventories
-----------

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out
method) or market.

Property and Depreciation
-------------------------

Buildings and equipment are stated at cost, and depreciated on both
straight-line and accelerated methods over estimated useful lives.
Leasehold improvements are capitalized and amortized over the assets'
estimated useful lives or remaining terms of leases, if shorter.
Equipment is depreciated over 3-10 years, buildings over 20-30 years
and leasehold improvements over 5-10 years.

Excess of Cost over Net Assets Acquired
---------------------------------------

The excess of investment costs over the fair value of net assets
related to the acquisitions of Haleyville Manufacturing (1973), Liberia
Manufacturing (1985) and Specialty Windows (1997) was being amortized
over a period of 40 years. Amortization of $104,589 was charged to
income during fiscal year ended December 29, 2001, and $116,182 in
fiscal year ended December 30, 2000. For the year ended December 30,
2000 management wrote off $140,495 of excess cost related to Paragon
Interiors (1995) and $565,481 related to Southern Interiors (1997).
(See Note 13 (a)).


F-6

DECORATOR INDUSTRIES, INC.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


(1) SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
------------------------------------------------------

In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS)
No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets" the Company no longer
amortizes goodwill. Accordingly, no goodwill was amortized in 2002.
Starting in 2002 the Company was required to evaluate the remaining
goodwill of $2,731,717 for possible impairment. Management has
evaluated the goodwill as of December 28, 2002 and determined that no
impairment exists.

Reclassification
----------------

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

Cash and Cash Equivalents
-------------------------

For purposes of the consolidated statements of cash flows, the Company
considers all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months
or less at the time of purchase to be cash equivalents.

Cash and cash equivalents consist of the following:

2002 2001
---- ----
General Funds $ (111,262) $ (224,743)
Overnight repurchase agreements 2,229,024 2,544,311
----------- -----------
$ 2,117,762 $ 2,319,568
=========== ===========

Deferred Income Taxes
---------------------

The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with the Statement
of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109 "Accounting for Income
Taxes," which requires the recognition of deferred tax liabilities and
assets at currently enacted tax rates for the expected future tax
consequences of events that have been included in the financial
statements or tax returns.

Credit Risk
-----------

The Company sells to three distinct markets, Original Equipment
Manufacturers ("OEM's") of manufactured housing, OEM's of recreational
vehicles, and to the hospitality industry. To the extent that economic
conditions might severely impact these markets, the Company could
suffer an abnormal credit loss.

The Company sells primarily on thirty day terms. The Company's
customers are spread over a wide geographic area. As such the Company
believes, that it does not have an abnormal concentration of credit
risk within any one geographic area.

Estimates
---------

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires
management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain
reported amounts and disclosures. Actual results may differ from these
estimates and assumptions.

DECORATOR INDUSTRIES, INC.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


(1) SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
------------------------------------------------------

Fair Value of Financial Instruments
-----------------------------------

Marketable securities are carried at fair value. A gain of $434 is
included in income for the year ended December 28, 2002 compared to a
gain of $6,178 for the year ended December 29, 2001. All other
financial instruments are carried at amounts believed to approximate
fair value.

Earnings Per Share
------------------

Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by
weighted-average number of shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per
share includes the dilutive effect of stock options. See Note 11
"Earnings Per Share" for computation of EPS.

Stock Based Compensation
------------------------

In accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 123, the Company follows
the intrinsic value based method of accounting as prescribed by APB 25,
"Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees", for its stock-based
compensation. Accordingly, no compensation cost is recognized.

Segment Information
-------------------

The Company has one business segment, the interior furnishings
business, and follows the requirements of SFAS No. 131, "Disclosures
about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information".

Recent Accounting Developments
------------------------------

The following Statements of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) were
issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board.

SFAS No. 145, "Rescission of FASB Statements No. 4, 44, and 64,
Amendment of FASB Statement No. 13, and Technical Corrections", issued
April 2002, will have no effect on the Company.

SFAS No. 146, "Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal
Activities", issued June 2002, requires that a liability for costs
associated with an exit or disposal activity be recognized and measured
initially at fair value only when the liability is incurred. SFAS No.
146 is effective for exit or disposal activities that are initiated
after December 31, 2002 and will not have a material effect on the
Company.

SFAS No. 147, "Acquisitions of Certain Financial Institutions, an
amendment of FASB Statements No. 72 and 144 and FASB Interpretation No.
9", issued October 2002, will have no effect on the Company.


F-8

DECORATOR INDUSTRIES, INC.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


(1) SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
------------------------------------------------------


SFAS No. 148, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation - Transition and
Disclosure" issued in December 2002, amends SFAS No. 123, "Accounting
for Stock Based Compensation", to provide alternate methods of
transition for a voluntary change to the fair value based method of
accounting for stock based compensation. In addition, the Statement
amends the disclosure requirements of SFAS No. 123 to require prominent
disclosure on both annual and interim financial statements about the
method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation and the
effect of the methods used on reported results. The Company will
continue to apply stock-based compensation in the method prescribed by
APB opinion 25, and does not expect SFAS No. 148 to have a material
effect on the Company.


(2) ACQUISITIONS
------------

As of March 15, 1997, the Company acquired the business and certain
assets of Specialty Window Coverings Corp. for $2,455,783. Additional
consideration of $705,415 was paid based on Specialty's earnings over
the two years ending April 3, 1999. Specialty is an Elkhart, Indiana
based manufacturer of pleated shades for the recreational vehicle
market.

As of May 12, 1997, the Company acquired the business and certain
assets of Southern Interiors, Inc. for $844,313 and future
consideration, not to exceed $500,000, based on Southern's sales over
the three years ending July 1, 2000. Southern was located in Memphis,
Tennessee and manufactured draperies for the hospitality market from
fabric supplied by its customers, largely hotel design and supply
firms. During the second quarter of 2000, the Company disposed of this
operation and wrote off the remaining goodwill of $565,481 from this
acquisition. (See note 13(a))

These acquisitions have been included in the consolidated financial
statements from the dates of acquisition. They have been accounted for
as a purchase. In each case, the purchase price has been allocated to
the underlying assets based upon their estimated fair values at the
date of acquisition. The excess of purchase price over the fair value
of the net assets acquired ("goodwill") is $1,965,743 for the Specialty
acquisition, which was being amortized over 40 years. In accordance
with SFAS 142, effective December 30, 2001 the Company no longer
amortizes goodwill, but will test it for impairment annually.

The cash payment for deferred purchase price of $9,498 in 2000
represents the additional consideration paid for the acquisition of
Southern Interiors.

On September 1, 1998 the Company began a 401(k) Retirement Savings Plan
available to all eligible employees. To be eligible for the plan, the
employee must be at least 21 years of age and have completed 1 year of
employment. Eligible employees may contribute up to 15% of their
earnings with a maximum of $11,000 for 2002 based on the Internal
Revenue Service annual contribution limit. The Company will match 25%
of the first 4% of the employee's contributions up to 1% of each
employee's earnings. Contributions are invested at the direction of the
employee to one or more funds. Company contributions begin to vest
after two years, with 100% vesting after five years. Company
contributions to the plan were $44,276 in 2002, $ 47,068 in 2001, and
$53,261 in 2000.

(9) STOCK OPTIONS
-------------

At December 28, 2002, the Company had options outstanding under two
fixed stock option plans, which are described below. The Company
applies APB Opinion 25 and related Interpretations in accounting for
its plans. Accordingly, no compensation cost has been recognized for
its fixed stock option plans. Had compensation cost for the Company's
two fixed stock option plans been determined based on the fair value at
the grant dates for awards under these plans consistent with the method
of SFAS No. 123, the Company's net income and earnings per share would
have been reduced to the pro forma amounts indicated below:



2002 2001 2000
---- ---- ----

Pro forma net income (loss) $1,291,210 $782,660 $(21,147)
Pro forma earnings (loss) per share:
Basic $0.46 $0.28 $(0.01)
Diluted $0.46 $0.28 $(0.01)


During the initial phase-in period of SFAS No. 123 the pro forma
disclosure may not be representative of the impact on the net income in
future years.

Under the 1984 Incentive Stock Option Plan, which expired in 1994, the
Company granted options to its employees for 804,976 shares (as
adjusted for stock splits). Under the 1995 Incentive Stock Option Plan,
the Company may grant options to its key employees for up to 520,830
(as adjusted for stock splits) shares of Common Stock. Under both
plans, the exercise price of the option equals the fair market price of
the Company's stock on the date of the grant and an option's maximum
term is 10 years. Under the 1995 Incentive Stock Option Plan options
for 260,410 (as adjusted for stock splits) shares were granted in 1996,
options for 7,813 (as adjusted for stock splits) shares were granted in
1997, options for 168,750 (as adjusted for stock splits) shares were
granted in 1998 and options for 98,250 shares were granted in 1999. The
options granted in 1997 and 1996 vest 20% each year starting with the
date of the grant. The options granted in 1999 and 1998, and the 15,000
new options granted in 2002, vest 20% each year beginning at the end of
the first year. The 166,250 exchanged options granted in 2002 vest 60%
at the date of grant, and 20% each at the end of the first and second
year.

The option grants for each year were calculated using the following
assumptions:



Year of Valuation Dividend Expected Risk-free Expected
Grant Method Yield Volatility Interest rate Life
- -------------- ----------------------- ------------- ------------- --------------- ------------

1996 Flexible Binomial 3.6% 40.6% 6.4% 3.7 years
1997 Flexible Binomial 3.6% 40.6% 6.4% 3.7 years
1998 Black-Scholes 2.6% 47.7% 5.6% 5.0 years
1999 Black-Scholes 2.5% 42.8% 5.8% 5.0 years

On February 22, 2002 the Company made an offer to exchange outstanding
options to purchase shares of the Company's Common Stock with an
exercise price greater than or equal to $7.00 per share for new options
which will be granted under the 1995 Plan. The offer expired on March
22, 2002 and the Company received tenders of options for 207,500
shares. The tendered options were cancelled on March 23, 2002. In
keeping with the Company's normal compensation practices, the actual
number of shares for which each new option will be granted has been
determined with respect to each employee individually. Subject to the
terms and conditions of the offer, the Company granted the new options
on October 9, 2002. The Company granted options for an aggregate of
166,250 shares in exchange for the tendered options that were cancelled
on March 23, 2002. The new options have an exercise price equal to the
