                              NOTES  TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED  FINANCIAL  STATEMENTS
                                                 December 31, 2004

Note 1–Basis of Presentation

         The unaudited consolidated financial statements of O’Sullivan Industries Holdings, Inc. and subsidiaries
(“O’Sullivan”) included herein have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for
interim financial information and with instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X.  Certain
information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations.  In the
opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair
presentation have been included.  The financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial
statements and notes thereto included in O’Sullivan’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30,
2004.  The interim results are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for a full year.
O’Sullivan owns all of the stock of O’Sullivan Industries, Inc. (“O’Sullivan Industries”).  O’Sullivan Industries is the
sole owner of O’Sullivan Industries - Virginia, Inc. (“O’Sullivan Industries - Virginia”) and O’Sullivan Furniture
Factory Outlet, Inc.

Note 2–Liquidity

         O’Sullivan has a stockholders’ deficit of approximately $184.5 million as of December 31, 2004, incurred a
net loss of $20.6 million for the six months ended December 31, 2004 and expects to incur additional losses during
the remainder of the fiscal year ending June 30, 2005.  O’Sullivan’s net sales have declined each of the past four
years.  O’Sullivan’s sales and operating results during fiscal 2004 and the first two quarters of fiscal 2005 were
impacted by increased competition from foreign and domestic competitors, a product mix reflecting more
promotional merchandise unfavorable manufacturing overhead variances incurred from lower operating levels due to
lower sales and execution of our inventory reduction plan and higher raw material costs, principally particleboard
and fiberboard.

         O’Sullivan has recently added several new key members to its executive management team.  The new
executive management team has evaluated O’Sullivan’s strategies and core competencies to determine the most
effective way to improve sales, reduce costs and increase operating income.  Management has developed and is
implementing a strategic plan developed from that evaluation.  O’Sullivan refinanced its previous senior credit
facility on September 29, 2003.  As a result of the refinancing, O’Sullivan has no principal payments on debt due
until October 2008.  In connection with the refinancing, O’Sullivan entered into a five year $40 million revolving
credit agreement.  Borrowing availability under the credit agreement is subject to, among other things, a borrowing
base determined by qualified inventory and accounts receivable levels, and is further reduced by outstanding letters
of credit.  O’Sullivan expects borrowing availability under the credit agreement to approximate $7 million to $12
million, after the effect of outstanding letters of credit ($15.2 million at December 31, 2004), from January 2005
through the end of fiscal 2005.  Decreased demand for O’Sullivan products, as well as efforts to reduce working
capital requirements, could negatively affect levels of inventory and accounts receivable and the availability of
borrowings under the credit agreement.  No borrowings were outstanding under the credit agreement at
December 31, 2004.

         O’Sullivan’s efforts to reduce its inventory levels are reducing the borrowing availability under the credit
agreement because borrowing availability under the credit agreement is based in part on qualified inventory.
Management feels, however, that lower inventory levels will reduce cash investments in inventory and reduce
inventory damage, storage costs and obsolescence.

         O’Sullivan management believes that cash on hand, net cash to be generated from operations, and forecasted
availability under the credit agreement will be sufficient to meet O’Sullivan’s cash needs for the next twelve months.
O’Sullivan was in compliance with its debt covenants at December 31, 2004 and expects to remain in compliance
with these covenants during the next twelve months.  In the event that revenues are significantly below fiscal year
2005 forecasted revenues, O’Sullivan believes it has the ability to reduce or delay discretionary expenditures and


further reduce operating costs and expenses so that it will have sufficient cash resources through the next twelve
months.  However, there can be no assurance that O’Sullivan will be able to adjust its costs in sufficient time to
respond to revenue shortfalls, should that occur.

Note 3–New Accounting Standards

         In December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 123(R) (’SFAS 123(R)”).  SFAS 123(R) revised SFAS 123, Accounting for
Stock-Based Compensation, and requires companies to expense the fair value of employee stock options and other
forms of stock-based compensation.  O’Sullivan will adopt this standard on July 1, 2005.  O’Sullivan is currently
evaluating the impact of SFAS 123(R) on its consolidated financial statements and has not yet selected a transition
method for adopting this standard.

         In November 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 151, Inventory Costs, an amendment of ARB No. 43,
Chapter 4, (“SFAS 151”).  The amendments made by SFAS 151 clarify that abnormal amounts of idle facility
expense, freight, handling costs and wasted materials (spoilage) should be recognized as current-period charges.
SFAS 151 also requires that allocation of fixed production overheads to the costs of inventory conversion be based
on normal capacity of the production facilities.  O’Sullivan will adopt this accounting standard on July 1, 2005.
O’Sullivan is currently evaluating the financial statement impact of the adoption of SFAS 151.

Note 4–Stock Based Compensation

         O’Sullivan accounts for stock-based compensation for employees under Accounting Principles Board
(“APB”) Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and has elected the disclosure-only alternative
under SFAS 123, as amended by SFAS 148.  No stock-based compensation cost is recorded, as all options granted
have an exercise price equal to the market value of the stock on the date of the grant.  In accordance with SFAS 148,
the following table presents the effect on net income (loss) had compensation cost for O’Sullivan’s stock plans been
determined consistent with SFAS 123:

         For purposes of pro forma disclosures, the estimated fair value of the options is amortized to expense over
the vesting period.   No options were granted in the six months ended December 31, 2003.

         Effective November 18, 2004, the Board of Directors of O’Sullivan approved a new 2004 Class A Common
Stock Option Plan providing for the issuance of options to purchase up to 93,182 shares of Class A common stock,
par value $0.01 per share, subject to adjustment.  Under the plan, options may be granted to executives and other key
employees of O’Sullivan and its subsidiaries.  The plan will be administered by the Compensation Committee of
O’Sullivan’s Board of Directors, which will set the terms for each option agreement.  Option terms may extend no
longer than ten years, and exercise prices must be at least fair market value on the date of grant of the stock option.
Vesting terms will be subject to the attainment of certain performance targets, the passage of time or otherwise;
provided, however, that all shares will vest upon a sale, merger or change in control of O’Sullivan.  The
Compensation Committee will designate options as incentive stock options or non-qualified stock options at the time
of grant.  An option holder may pay the exercise price for options exercised in cash, in shares of previously owned
common stock of O’Sullivan or by a reduction in the number of shares to be received by the exercising option


holder.  Any applicable withholding taxes must be paid in cash, by delivery of previously owned shares or by a
reduction in the number of shares to be received by the exercising option holder.

         Effective November 18, 2004, the Compensation Committee granted options to purchase 48,000 shares of
Class A common stock at an exercise price of $0.01 per share, which is the estimated fair value of the underlying
common stock at the date of grant.  The options vest in five annual installments beginning November 12, 2005 and
expire on November 12, 2014.  None of these options were exercisable at December 31, 2004.

Note 5–Shipping and Handling Costs

         O’Sullivan reports amounts billed to customers as revenue, the cost for warehousing operations in cost of
sales and freight out costs as part of selling, marketing and administrative expenses.  Freight out costs included in
selling, marketing and administrative expenses in the second quarters of fiscal 2005 and fiscal 2004 were
approximately $2.1 million and $1.7 million, respectively.  Freight out costs in the six months ended December 31,
2004 and 2003 were $4.2 million and $3.2 million, respectively.

Note 6–Inventory

Note 9–Income Taxes

         O’Sullivan entered into a significant tax sharing and tax benefit reimbursement agreement with RadioShack
Corporation (O’Sullivan’s former parent) in 1994.  See Note 3 to the consolidated financial statements included in
O’Sullivan’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2004.  Because of the current tax benefits
associated with the Section 338 election and the valuation allowance recorded in the fiscal year ended June 30, 2002,
O’Sullivan recorded no tax expense for the three and six months ended December 31, 2004 and 2003.

Note 10–Related Party Transactions

         BRS.  O’Sullivan Industries entered into a management services agreement with Bruckmann, Rosser,
Sherrill &Co., LLC (“BRS”) for strategic and financial advisory services on November 30, 1999.  The fee for these
services is the greater of (a) 1% of O’Sullivan Industries’ consolidated cash flow (as defined in the indenture related
to the O’Sullivan Industries senior subordinated notes) or (b) $300,000 per year.  Under the management services
agreement, BRS can also receive reimbursement for expenses.

         The credit agreement, the indenture for the senior secured notes and the management services agreement all
contain certain restrictions on the payment of the management fee.  The management services agreement provides
that no cash payment for the management fee can be made unless the fixed charge coverage ratio (as defined in the
indenture for the senior subordinated notes) for O’Sullivan Industries’ most recently ended four full fiscal quarters
would have been greater than 2.0 to 1.0.  Similarly, the indenture for the senior secured notes provides that payments
under the management services agreement are conditional and contingent upon the fixed charge coverage ratio (as
defined in the indenture for the senior secured notes) for the four most recently ended full fiscal quarters immediately
preceding any payment date being at least 2.0 to 1.0.  The credit agreement prevents O’Sullivan Industries from
paying fees and expenses under the management services agreement if a default or event of default exists or if one


would occur as a result of the payment.  All fees and expenses under the management services agreement are
subordinated to the senior subordinated notes.

         The management fees and reimbursable expenses of $150,000 and $145,000 recognized in the first half of
fiscal years 2005 and 2004, respectively, are included in selling, marketing and administrative expense in the
accompanying consolidated statements of operations.  The accrued balance at December 31, 2004 and June 30, 2004
was $303,000 and $153,000, respectively, and is included in accrued liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet.

         Employee Loan.  At December 31, 2004, O’Sullivan held one note receivable with a balance of
approximately $348,000 from an officer of O’Sullivan.  O’Sullivan loaned the officer money to purchase common
stock and Series B junior preferred stock of O’Sullivan in the November 1999 recapitalization and merger.  The note
bears interest at the rate of 9% per annum and matures on November 30, 2009, or earlier if there is a change of
control, and is with full recourse.  The receivable is recorded on O’Sullivan’s consolidated balance sheets as an
increase in stockholders’ deficit.

         Employment Agreements and Executive Stock Agreements.  In the first quarter of fiscal 2005, O’Sullivan
issued stock to three executives of the Corporation pursuant to Executive Stock Agreements between O’Sullivan and
each executive.  The stock was issued at fair value.  O’Sullivan issued an aggregate of 701,422 shares of its Class B
common stock, 384,085 shares of its Series B junior preferred stock and 50,000 shares of its Series C junior
preferred stock.  The sales prices for the shares were $0.01 per share for the Class B common stock and the Series B
junior preferred stock and $0.10 per share for the Series C junior preferred stock.

Note 11–Commitments and Contingencies

         Tax Sharing Agreement with RadioShack.  Future tax sharing agreement payments are contingent on
taxable income.  The maximum payments are fiscal 2005 – $20.2 million; fiscal 2006 – $11.3 million; fiscal
2007 – $12.3 million; fiscal 2008 – $14.5 million; and thereafter – $11.8 million.  The amount O’Sullivan
estimates it will pay during fiscal 2005 has been recorded in current liabilities.  See Note 3 to the consolidated
financial statements included in O’Sullivan’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2004.

         Litigation.  There have been no significant changes in pending litigation involving O’Sullivan since June 30,
2004, except for the House2Home litigation described below.

         In November 2001, House2Home filed for bankruptcy and eventually closed all of its stores.  House2Home
filed a suit against O’Sullivan Industries in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court, Central District of California, alleging that
payments made by House2Home within 90 days prior to its bankruptcy constituted preferential transfers under the
Bankruptcy Code that should be recovered from O’Sullivan Industries by House2Home together with interest.  The
alleged payments aggregated $700,000.  O’Sullivan Industries settled this suit in the second quarter of fiscal 2005 for
a de minimis amount.

Note 12–Other Comprehensive Income

         O’Sullivan’s comprehensive income is comprised of net income (loss) and foreign currency translation
adjustments.  The components of comprehensive income for the three and six month periods ended December 31 are:

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

Overview

          Our net sales for the second quarter of fiscal 2005 were up about 1.5% from sales for the same quarter in
fiscal 2004 as strong sales to certain customers offset declines to others, such as a major electronics chain and a
major discount chain.  For the first half of fiscal 2005, our sales declined about 5.7%.  Our sales declined in the first
half for several reasons:

     –   market share losses at two large retailers in the last half of fiscal 2004;

     –   a weaker than expected back-to-school selling season;

     –   increasing competition from imported furniture, particularly from China;

     –   increased competition from domestic competition due to excess capacity in the RTA furniture industry and
         increasing concentration of retail stores;

     –   a decline in price of the average unit sold, reflecting increased competition and a trend toward more
         promotional merchandise as well as the mix of products sold; and

     –   a focus by several of our retail partners toward higher price point offerings, which include products using
         materials other than our particleboard and laminate capabilities.

         Operating income declined to a loss of $3.2 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2005 from operating
income of $2.7 million in fiscal 2004.  The decline was due to:

     –   lower gross margins due to lower production levels resulting from lower year-to-date sales and efforts to
         reduce our inventory levels, which unfavorably affected overhead absorption;

     –   continued high prices of raw materials, particularly particleboard; and

     –   a product mix that contained more promotionally priced, lower margin units.

         In response to the industry trends, we have taken steps to reduce costs, increase selling prices, lower our
inventories and mitigate the impact of the current market challenges.  We may take similar actions in the future,
which may result in asset write-downs or impairment or other charges.  See Item 3, “Quantitative and Qualitative
Disclosures about Market Risk,” for more information regarding our raw material price increases.

Outlook.

         We anticipate that the remainder of fiscal 2005 will be challenging.  We expect sales will be lower, by a
percentage in the mid-single digit range, than sales in the second half of fiscal 2004.  We also anticipate that
earnings will be significantly reduced by several factors including:

     –   the impact of our lower sales volume;

     –   our gross margins will continue to be reduced due to unabsorbed manufacturing overhead due to lower
         production levels; however, we expect the reduction will be less than that experienced in the second quarter
         of fiscal 2005.  The lower production levels were a part of our plan to operate with significantly lower
         inventory levels.  Most of the reduction was completed in the second quarter, allowing us to balance
         production and sales in future quarters.

     –   raw material prices, particularly particleboard prices, while moderating slightly, continue at high levels; and


     –   our product mix in fiscal 2005 will contain more promotionally priced lower margin units compared to the
        product mix sold in the third quarter of fiscal 2004, although the margin impact will be less than we saw in
         the second quarter of fiscal 2005.

New Management Team and Strategic Planning

         In May 2004, we announced the hiring of Robert S. Parker as our President and Chief Executive Officer,
followed in succeeding months by the arrival of Rick A. Walters as Executive Vice President and Chief Financial
Officer and Michael D. Orr as Executive Vice President-Operations.  Each of these gentlemen came from the
Sharpie/Calphalon Group of Newell Rubbermaid Corporation.  The new executive management team has evaluated
our strategies and core competencies to determine the most effective way to improve sales, reduce costs and increase
operating income.  We have developed and are implementing a strategic plan from that evaluation. Strategic
initiatives that are currently underway at O’Sullivan include:

     –   creating a new sales and marketing organization to focus on targeted market segments and the key
         customers in those segments;

     –   evaluating all aspects of our cost structure and our new product development process in order to introduce
         new consumer oriented, profitable products to our customers;

     –   building a more capable and far reaching organization to source parts and products from outside the United
         States;

     –   focusing on our factories to improve their productivity and better control their costs, including the
         introduction of lean manufacturing training programs;

     –   improving working capital management and cash flow through better planning, reduction in required
         inventory levels and improving vendor and customer terms, among other things;

     –   moving our corporate headquarters from Lamar, Missouri to the Atlanta, Georgia area, which is making us
         more accessible to our valued customers and expand our management recruiting opportunities;

     –   adding seasoned professionals to our sales and marketing organization; and

     –   implementing a disciplined new product development program that is designed to introduce consumer
         oriented products that provide distinctive value.

We are implementing these initiatives and are beginning to see some results.  For example, we have

         –        completed the move of our corporate headquarters to the Atlanta, Georgia area;

         –        filled a number of vacant positions in our marketing organization;

         –        expanded our in-house sales organization to focus on building detailed growth plans and programs
                  with our larger customers;

         –        worked with our suppliers to encourage partnering and improved product features while
                  maintaining competitive pricing;

         –        focused on improving productivity and lowering costs; and

         –        reduced our inventory by $13.6 million since June 30, 2004.



          We have begun to see the results of our strategic initiatives; however, it will take time for the full results of
these efforts to become evident.  We continue to believe these initiatives will help O’Sullivan achieve improved long-
term results.

Customer Bankruptcy

         In August 2002, Ames Department Stores, Inc. decided to close all of its stores and liquidate.  In August
2003, Ames filed suit against O’Sullivan Industries in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court, Southern District of New York
alleging that payments made by Ames within 90 days prior to its bankruptcy constituted preferential transfers under
the Bankruptcy Code that should be recovered from O’Sullivan Industries by Ames, together with interest.  The
alleged payments aggregate $2.1 million.  We have responded to the suit denying we received any preferential
payments.  We are contesting this lawsuit vigorously.

Tax Sharing Agreement with RadioShack

         In 1994, RadioShack, then Tandy Corporation, completed an initial public offering of O’Sullivan.  In
connection with the offering, we entered into a tax sharing and tax benefit reimbursement agreement with
RadioShack.  RadioShack and O’Sullivan made elections under Sections 338(g) and 338(h)(10) of the Internal
Revenue Code with the effect that the tax basis of our assets was increased to the deemed purchase price of the
assets, and an equal amount of such increase was included as taxable income in the consolidated federal tax return of
RadioShack.  The result was that the tax basis of our assets exceeded the historical book basis we used for financial
reporting purposes.

         The increased tax basis of our assets results in increased tax deductions and, accordingly, reduced our
taxable income or increased our net operating loss.  Under the tax sharing agreement, we are contractually obligated
to pay RadioShack nearly all of the federal tax benefit expected to be realized with respect to such additional basis.
The payments under the agreement represent additional consideration for the stock of O’Sullivan Industries and
further increase the tax basis of our assets from the 1994 initial public offering when payments are made to
RadioShack.  Accordingly, we recorded the deferred tax asset created by the step-up in tax basis and the additional
tax basis from the probable future payments to RadioShack.

         Additionally, we recorded the remaining maximum obligation to RadioShack pursuant to the tax sharing
agreement.  The remaining maximum obligation to RadioShack was $70.1 million at December 31, 2004 and
June 30, 2004.  Future payments to RadioShack are contingent upon achieving consolidated taxable income
calculated on the basis of the tax sharing agreement.

         During the year ended June 30, 2002, we recorded a full valuation allowance against our net deferred tax
assets because we were unable to determine, based on objective evidence, that it was more likely than not that we
would be able to utilize our net operating losses prior to their expiration.  If at a future date we determine that some
or all of the deferred tax asset will more likely than not be realized, we will reverse the appropriate portion of the
valuation allowance and credit income tax.

Results of Operations

         Net Sales.  Net sales for the quarter ended December 31, 2004 increased by $952,000, or 1.5%, to
$66.2 million from $65.2 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2003.  Net sales for the six months ended
December 31, 2004 decreased by $7.8 million, or 5.7%, to $128.9 million from $136.7 million for the six months
ended December 31, 2003.  Our year to date sales declined in the office superstore, discount mass merchant and
electronic superstore channels due to extremely competitive conditions, economic uncertainties and loss of market
share noted above.  Sales in the home improvement channel increased in the second quarter, but were down for the
six month period.  International sales increased for both the quarter and the year to date.  Our average price per unit
declined, while the number of units increased as our product mix shifted more toward lower priced and promotional
merchandise in the first half of fiscal 2005 compared to the same period in fiscal 2004.


         Gross Profit.  Gross profit decreased to $9.1 million, or 13.7% of sales, for the three month period ended
December 31, 2004, from $14.6 million, or 22.4% of sales, for the comparable prior year quarter.  The gross margin
percentage for the second quarter of fiscal 2005 declined primarily because of lower production levels in the first and
second quarters, higher raw material prices and changes in our product mix.  For the six months ended December 31,
2004, gross profit declined to $20.5 million, or 15.9% of sales, from $28.9 million, or 21.1% of sales.  Gross profit
declined for the first half of fiscal 2005 for the same reasons as for the second quarter and because of lower sales
levels.  Gross profit for the six months ended December 31, 2004 was also affected by an increase of our finished
goods inventory allowance of $738,000, a decrease in our allowance for maintenance and supplies inventory of
$1.4 million and the establishment of a $600,000 reserve for expenses expected to be incurred in connection with the
termination of agreements to purchase certain raw materials.

         Selling, Marketing and Administrative Expenses.  Selling, marketing and administrative expenses increased
to $12.2 million for the three month period ended December 31, 2004, compared to $11.6 million for the quarter
ended December 31, 2003.  Selling, marketing and administrative expenses increased to 18.4% of our net sales for
the fiscal 2005 second quarter compared to 17.8% of net sales in the second quarter of fiscal 2004.  Freight out
expense increased due to increased direct shipments to consumers for our retail customers.  Royalty expenses
increased due to royalties paid in connection with our license agreement with The Coleman Company, Inc.  Salaries,
severance, relocation and recruiting expenses increased in fiscal 2005 in connection with our management changes
and implementation of the new strategic plan discussed previously.  These charges were partially offset by lower
advertising expenses due to lower store reset expenses as a result of the timing of product introductions and lower
sales commissions.

         For the six months ended December 31, 2004, selling, marketing and administrative expenses increased
$1.4 million from $22.1 million in fiscal 2004 to $23.4 million in fiscal 2005.  The major factors contributing to the
increase were higher salary, severance, relocation and recruiting expenses in connection with our management
changes and implementation of the new strategic plan discussed previously, increased freight out expense and higher
royalty costs, partially offset by lower advertising costs due mainly to the timing of product introductions and lower
commission expenses.

         Casualty Loss.  In November 2003, a fire destroyed certain of our manufacturing equipment.  We recorded
a casualty loss of $250,000 in the quarter ended December 31, 2003.  During fiscal 2004, we deferred recognition of
gains resulting from estimated insurance recoveries until the insurance proceeds were realized.  Those gains were
recognized in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2004.

         Depreciation and Amortization.  Depreciation and amortization expenses of $3.2 million for the second
quarter of fiscal 2005 and $6.3 million year to date were slightly lower than the $3.3 million and $6.6 million of
depreciation and amortization expenses for the comparable periods of fiscal 2004.

         Operating Income.  Operating loss was $3.2 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2005, or $5.9 million
lower than the operating income of $2.7 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2004 due to lower production levels
which adversely affected our fixed cost absorption, higher raw material costs, changes in customer mix and increased
administrative expense.  For the six months ended December 31, 2004, our operating loss was $2.9 million, or $9.5
million lower than the $6.6 million operating income for the six months ended December 31, 2003.  Our operating
income declined because of our lower sales levels, lower production levels which adversely affected our fixed cost
absorption, changes in customer mix and increasing raw material prices.

         Net Interest Expense.  Net interest expense increased from $8.8 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2004
to $8.9 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2005.  Net interest expense increased $1.1 million from $16.6 million
for the first half of fiscal 2004 to $17.7 million for the first half of fiscal 2005.  Net interest expense increased
principally due to the greater interest expense on the O’Sullivan Holdings note and our senior preferred stock due to
the increased principal amount of these obligations.  The following table summarizes our net interest expense:

         Other Financing Income(Expense).  We recorded a gain of $616,000  in the quarter ended December 31,
2003 in connection with the repurchase of $4.0 million of our senior subordinated notes, net of original issue
discount and capitalized loan fees.  For the six months ended December 31, 2003, we recorded other financing costs
expense of $2.7 million related to the write-off of capitalized loan fees for the old senior credit facility of about
$3.3 million in the September 2003 quarter, offset by the gain on the repurchase of the subordinated notes.

         Income Tax Provision.  We recorded no tax expense in the three and six month periods ended
December 31, 2004 and 2003 because of the current tax benefits associated with the Section 338 election (See "Tax
Sharing Agreement with RadioShack") and because of the valuation allowance against our net deferred tax assets.

         Net Loss.  We incurred a net loss of $12.1 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2005 compared to a net
loss of $5.4 million in fiscal 2004.  Net loss increased $8.0 million from a net loss of $12.7 million in the first half of
fiscal 2004 to a net loss of $20.6 million in the first half of fiscal 2005.  The increase in the loss for both periods was
due to lower operating levels, higher raw material costs and increased administrative costs.  For the first half of fiscal
2005, lower sales levels also increased the net loss.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

         We are highly leveraged and have a stockholders’ deficit of approximately $184.5 million at December 31,
2004.  Our primary sources of liquidity are cash flows from operations and borrowings under our senior credit
agreement, which is discussed below.  Our liquidity requirements will be to pay our debt, including interest expense
under our credit agreement and notes, to provide for working capital and capital expenditures and to pay RadioShack
amounts due under the tax sharing agreement.  Decreased demand for our products could decrease our cash flow
from operations and the availability of borrowings under our credit agreement.

         Working Capital.  As of December 31, 2004, cash and cash equivalents totaled $11.0 million.  Net working
capital was $45.2 million at December 31, 2004 compared to $49.6 million at June 30, 2004.

         Operating Activities.  Net cash provided by operating activities for the six months ended December 31,
2004 was $6.2 million compared to net cash provided of $5.0 million for the six months ended December 31, 2003.
Cash flow from operations increased for the following reasons.

      –    Inventories declined $13.6 million in the first half of fiscal 2005, $11.5 million more than the $2.0 million
           decline in the first half of fiscal 2004.

      –    Net loss in fiscal 2005 was about $8.0 million higher than in the first half of fiscal 2004.



      –    Included in net loss for fiscal 2004 were non-cash charges of $2.7 million of debt extinguishment costs,
           net.

      –    Accounts receivable increased only $472,000 in the first half of fiscal 2005 compared with an increase of
           $4.3 million in the first half of fiscal 2004.

      –    Accounts payable and accrued liabilities increased $4.6 million during the first half of fiscal 2004
           compared to an increase of $762,000 during the first half of fiscal 2005.  Accrued interest was higher in
           fiscal 2005 due to the refinancing of our old senior credit facility.

         Investing Activities.  We invested $503,000 for capital expenditures for the six months ended December 31,
2004 compared to $540,000 for the prior year six month period.  We currently estimate that the total capital
expenditure requirements for the remainder of the fiscal year will be approximately $1.0 to $1.5 million, which we
expect to fund from cash flow from operations or cash on hand.  Our ability to make future capital expenditures is
limited to $10.0 million per year, with certain carryforwards, under the indenture governing our senior secured notes.

         Financing Activities.  Our net cash provided by financing activities was $46,000 in the first half of fiscal
2005 from the issuance of stock and the repayment of a loan to an employee.  In the first half of fiscal 2004, the
refinancing of our old senior credit facility provided $2.5 million of cash, net of cash used to pay debt issuance
related costs, while a repurchase of $4.0 million of our senior subordinated notes required $3.2 million of cash.

         Our consolidated principal amount of indebtedness at December 31, 2004 was $232.5 million, consisting of
the following:

     –   a credit agreement providing for asset-based revolving credit of up to $40.0 million.  The borrowing base at
         December 31, 2004 was approximately $22.3 million.  No borrowings were outstanding under the credit
         agreement at December 31, 2004, although letters of credit aggregating approximately $15.2 million were
         outstanding under the credit agreement.  The outstanding letters of credit reduced the borrowing base to
         approximately $7.0 million.  The credit agreement is secured by a first-priority security interest in and lien
         on substantially all of our accounts receivable, inventory, deposit accounts, certain books and records and
         certain licenses, and a second-priority security interest in and lien on substantially all of our assets other
         than accounts receivable, inventory, capital stock of our subsidiaries, deposit accounts, certain books and
         records and certain licenses. The interest rate on loans under the credit agreement is a LIBOR rate plus
         2.5% or an index rate plus 1.0%.  We also pay a quarterly fee equal to 0.5% per annum of the unused
         commitment under the credit agreement.  O’Sullivan Industries - Virginia and O’Sullivan Furniture Factory
         Outlet, Inc. are also parties to the credit agreementIn connection with the execution and delivery of the
         credit agreement, we entered into a lockbox agreement with the agent under the agreement.  Pursuant to the
         agreement, we granted the agent a security interest in the cash deposited, or received in the future, in the
         account.  Under the terms of the lockbox agreement, the agent has control over the accounts and amounts
         deposited therein.  Because of the nature of the lockbox arrangement and other provisions of the credit
         agreement, accounting principles require any borrowings under the credit agreement to be classified as short
         term even though the term of the credit agreement does not expire until September 2008.

     –   $100.0 million in 10.63% senior secured notes due 2008.  We sold the notes in September 2003 at 95% of
         their par value, yielding $95.0 million in proceeds before issuance expenses of approximately $3.8 million.
         We used proceeds of the senior secured notes to repay the $88.7 million outstanding under our old senior
         credit facility and to pay issuance expenses.  The notes are secured by a first-priority security interest in and
         lien on substantially all of our assets (and on O’Sullivan Industries’ capital stock) other than accounts
         receivable, inventory, capital stock of O’Sullivan Industries’ subsidiaries, deposit accounts, certain books
         and records and certain licenses, and by a second-priority security interest in and lien on substantially all of
         our accounts receivable, inventory, deposit accounts, certain books and records and certain licenses.  The
         notes are guaranteed by O’Sullivan Holdings, O’Sullivan Industries - Virginia and O’Sullivan Furniture
         Factory Outlet, Inc.



     –   $96.0 million in 13-3/8% senior subordinated notes due 2009 issued with warrants to purchase 93,273
         shares of our Class A common stock and 39,273 shares of our Series B junior preferred stock on a fully
         diluted basis.  These warrants were assigned a value of $3.5 million. We issued $100.0 million of these
         notes in 1999 at a price of 98.046%, providing $98.0 million in cash proceeds before expenses related to
         the issuance.  We repurchased $4.0 million of the notes during fiscal 2004.

     –   $10.0 million in variable rate industrial revenue bonds.

     –   $26.5 million, including $11.5 million of interest added to the principal of the note, in a note issued by
         O’Sullivan Holdings with warrants to purchase 93,273 shares of our Class A common stock and 39,273
         shares of our Series B junior preferred stock on a fully diluted basis.  These warrants were assigned a value
         of $3.5 million.

The reconciliation of consolidated indebtedness to recorded book value at December 31, 2004 is as follows:

Liquidity

         We have a stockholders’ deficit of approximately $184.5 million as of December 31, 2004, incurred a net
loss of $20.6 million for the six months ended  December 31, 2004 and expect to incur additional losses during the
remainder of the fiscal year ending June 30, 2005.  Our net sales have declined each of the past four years.  Our sales
and operating results during fiscal 2004 and the first two quarters of fiscal 2005 were impacted by a decline in the
RTA furniture market, increased competition from foreign and domestic competitors, a product mix reflecting more
promotional merchandise, and higher raw material costs, principally particleboard and fiberboard.

         As noted above, we refinanced our previous senior credit facility on September 29, 2003.  As a result of the
refinancing, we have no principal payments on debt due until October 2008.  In connection with the refinancing, we
entered into the five year $40 million revolving credit agreement discussed above.  Borrowing availability under the
credit agreement is subject to, among other things, a borrowing base determined by qualified inventory and accounts
receivable levels, and is further reduced by outstanding letters of credit ($15.2 million at December 31, 2004).  We
expect borrowing availability under the credit agreement to approximate $7 million to $12 million, after the effect of
outstanding letters of credit, from January 2005 through the end of fiscal 2005.  Decreased demand for our products,
as well as efforts to reduce working capital requirements, could negatively affect levels of inventory and accounts
receivable and the availability of borrowings under the credit agreement.  No borrowings were outstanding under the
credit agreement at December 31, 2004.

         O’Sullivan’s efforts to reduce our inventory levels are reducing the borrowing availability under the credit
agreement because borrowing availability under the credit agreement is based in part on qualified inventory.
Management feels, however, that lower inventory levels will reduce cash investments in inventory and reduce
inventory damage, storage costs and obsolescence.

         Our management believes that cash on hand, net cash to be generated from operations, and forecasted
availability under the credit agreement will be sufficient to meet our cash needs for the next twelve months.  We


were in compliance with our debt covenants at December 31, 2004 and expect to remain in compliance with these
covenants during the next twelve months.  In the event that revenues are significantly below fiscal year 2005
forecasted revenues, we believe we have the ability to reduce or delay discretionary expenditures and further reduce
operating costs and expenses so that we will have sufficient cash resources through the next twelve months.
However, there can be no assurance that we will be able to adjust our costs in sufficient time to respond to revenue
shortfalls, should that occur.

         See the overview section of this Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations for a discussion of the impact of tax sharing agreement with RadioShack on our liquidity and financial
condition.

         Off-balance Sheet Arrangements.    At December 31, 2004, we had no off-balance sheet arrangements that
have or are likely to have a material current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial
condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.

         As of December 31, 2004, our contractual obligations due in the future mature as follows:

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

         Preparation of our consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses.  Management believes the
most complex and sensitive judgments, because of their significance to our consolidated financial statements, result
primarily from the need to make estimates about the effects of matters that are inherently uncertain.  Item 7,
"Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations," and Note 2 to the
Consolidated Financial Statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2004 filed
with the Securities and Exchange Commission on September 28, 2004, describe the significant accounting estimates
and policies used in preparation of our consolidated financial statements.  Actual results in these areas could differ


from management’s estimates.  There have been no significant changes in our accounting policies and estimates
during the first six months of fiscal 2005.

Legal Proceedings

         In August 2002, Ames decided to close all of its stores and liquidate.  Actual net sales to Ames in fiscal
2004 were minimal.  In August 2003, Ames Department Stores, Inc. filed suit against O’Sullivan Industries in the
U.S. Bankruptcy Court, Southern District of New York alleging that payments made by Ames within 90 days prior to
its bankruptcy constituted preferential transfers under the Bankruptcy Code that should be recovered from
O’Sullivan Industries by Ames, together with interest.  The alleged payments aggregate $2.1 million.  We received
the summons in this action on September 22, 2003.  We responded to the suit denying we received any preferential
payments.  We are contesting this lawsuit vigorously.

Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward Looking Information

         Certain portions of this Report, and particularly the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements and the
Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, contain forward-looking
statements.  These statements can be identified by the use of future tense or dates or terms such as "believe,"
"would," "expect,"  "anticipate" or "plan."  These forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties.  Actual
results may differ materially from those predicted by the forward-looking statements.  Factors and possible events
which could cause results to differ include:

     –   changes from anticipated levels of sales, whether due to
         –    future national or regional economic and competitive conditions, as we have seen in recent years with
              slower economic conditions and declines in the sales of personal computers;
         –    new domestic or foreign entrants into the industry, as with competitors and retailers sourcing products
              competitive with ours from overseas in recent years;
         –    customer acceptance of existing and new products, as we have experienced in recent years;
     –   lower borrowing availability under our credit agreement due to our program to reduce our inventory levels;
     –   loss of liquidity due to the arbitration panel’s opinion in RadioShack Corporation v. O’Sullivan Industries
         Holdings, Inc.;
     –   significant indebtedness that may limit our financial and operational flexibility;
     –   raw material cost increases, particularly in particleboard and fiberboard, as occurred in fiscal 2004;
     –   pricing pressures due to excess capacity in the ready-to-assemble furniture industry, as is occurring now, or
        customer demand in excess of our ability to supply product;
     –   transportation cost increases, due to higher fuel costs or otherwise;
     –   loss of or reduced sales to significant customers as a result of bankruptcy, liquidation, merger, acquisition or
         any other reason, as occurred with the liquidation of Ames in fiscal 2003 and with the reorganization of
         Kmart beginning in fiscal 2002 and with the loss of significant business at Best Buy and a mass merchant in
         fiscal 2004;
     –   actions of current or new competitors, foreign or domestic, that increase competition with our products or
         prices, as has been occurring with imported products from China and other countries in recent years;
     –   the consolidation of manufacturers in the ready-to-assemble furniture industry;
     –   increased advertising costs associated with promotional efforts;
     –   increased interest rates;
     –   pending or new litigation or governmental regulations such as the arbitration involving RadioShack;
     –   other uncertainties which are difficult to predict or beyond our control; and
     –   the risk that we incorrectly analyze these risks and forces, or that the strategies we develop to address them
         could be unsuccessful.

See also the Risk Factors section in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2004.

         Because these forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties, actual results may differ
significantly from those predicted in these forward-looking statements.  You should not place a lot of weight on these


statements.  These statements speak only as of the date of this document or, in the case of any document incorporated
by reference, the date of that document.

         All subsequent written and oral forward-looking statements attributable to O’Sullivan or any person acting
on our behalf are qualified by the cautionary statements in this section.  We will have no obligation to revise these
forward-looking statements.

ITEM 3.           QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.

         Our market risk is affected by changes in interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates and certain
commodity prices.  Under our policies, we may use natural hedging techniques and derivative financial instruments
to reduce the impact of adverse changes in market prices.  We do not hold or issue derivative instruments for trading
purposes.  We believe that our foreign exchange risk is not material.

         We have market risk in interest rate exposure, primarily in the United States.  We manage interest rate
exposure through our mix of fixed and floating rate debt.  Interest rate instruments may be used to adjust interest rate
exposures when appropriate based on market conditions.  Our interest rate collar expired on March 31, 2003.  At
December 31, 2004, $10.0 million of our debt was subject to variable interest rates.  A change in interest rates of one
percentage point would change our cash interest by about $100,000 annually.

         Due to the nature of our product lines, we have material sensitivity to some commodities, including
particleboard, fiberboard, corrugated cardboard and hardware.  We manage commodity price exposures primarily
through the duration and terms of our vendor agreements.  A 1.0% change in our raw material prices would affect
our cost of sales by approximately $1.4 million annually.

         In fiscal 2004, market prices for particleboard, our largest-cost raw material, increased about 40% to 50%,
depending on thickness and origin.  Market prices for fiberboard increased about 30%.  Prices increased as demand
for particleboard and fiberboard increased and because producers reduced their manufacturing capacity.  Market
prices for particleboard declined slightly in the first half of fiscal 2005, while fiberboard prices declined slightly in
the second quarter of fiscal 2005.  Industry sources anticipate flat to slightly lower prices for particleboard through
the remainder of fiscal 2005, while fiberboard prices are expected to fluctuate slightly through June 2005.  The high
prices for particleboard and fiberboard will reduce our operating margins and operating income for fiscal 2005 and
perhaps beyond.

         We are endeavoring to reduce the impact of the price increases through our productivity programs, by price
increases and by the eventual inclusion of the higher costs in the pricing of our products.  We have negotiated higher
prices for our products with our customers, although these price increases recovered only a part of the price increases
we have incurred.  In our productivity programs, we endeavor to remove costs from the production of a product
without sacrificing utility or quality of the product.  We cannot assure you that we will be successful in offsetting
these or future potential raw material price increases.

         We cannot assure you that raw materials prices will not increase further in the future.

ITEM 4.  CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

         O’Sullivan maintains disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) or Rule 15d-15(e) of
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in
O’Sullivan’s Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported accurately within the time
periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to
O’Sullivan’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding
required disclosures.  In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized
that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance
of achieving the desired control objectives, and management was necessarily required to apply its judgment in
evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.



         As of the end of the period covered by this report, O’Sullivan carried out an evaluation, under the
supervision and with the participation of O’Sullivan’s management, including O’Sullivan’s Chief Executive Officer
and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of O’Sullivan’s disclosure controls and
procedures.  Based on the foregoing, O’Sullivan’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that
O’Sullivan’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

         During our most recent quarter, there have been no changes in O’Sullivan’s internal controls over financial
reporting identified in the evaluation described above that has materially affected or is reasonably likely to materially
affect, O’Sullivan’s internal control over financial reporting.


                                          PART II  –  OTHER  INFORMATION

ITEM 1.           LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.

         In November 2001 House2Home filed for bankruptcy and eventually closed all of its stores.  House2Home
filed a suit against us in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court, Central District of California, alleging that payments made by
House2Home within 90 days prior to its bankruptcy constituted preferential transfers under the Bankruptcy Code
that should be recovered from O’Sullivan Industries by House2Home together with interest.  The alleged payments
aggregated $700,000.  We settled this suit in the second quarter of fiscal 2005 for a de minimis amount.

ITEM 4.  SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS.

         An annual meeting of stockholders of O’Sullivan was held on November 12, 2004 to elect two Class II
directors.  We did not solicit proxies.  Messrs. Robert S. Parker and Harold O. Rosser were reelected as Class II
directors.  Messrs. Parker and Rosser each received 1,034,611 votes for reelection; no votes were withheld.  The
terms of office of Messrs. Richard D. Davidson, Richard R. Leonard and Charles Macaluso did not expire in 2004;
they continue as directors of O’Sullivan.

ITEM 6.           EXHIBITS.

         A list of exhibits required to be filed as part of this Report is set forth in the Index to Exhibits, which
immediately precedes such exhibits, and is incorporated herein by reference.
