Note 1, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Organization
RoomStore, Inc. (RoomStore or the Company) is a home furnishings and bedding retailer in the United States which operates 67 stores (as of May 31, 2010) located in the states of Pennsylvania, Maryland, Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Alabama, Florida and Texas. The Company also offers its home furnishing through Furniture.com, a provider of internet-based sales opportunities for regional furniture retailers. The Company is a 65% owner of Mattress Discounters Group, LLC (MDG) which operates 80 mattress stores (as of May 31, 2010) in the states of Delaware, Maryland, Virginia and Alabama and in the District of Columbia.
Basis of Presentation
The consolidated financial statements include all accounts of the Company and its majority-owned subsidiary, MDG. All significant inter-division and intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. The Companys fiscal year ends on the last day of February. The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America consistent in all material respects with those applied in the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended February 28, 2010. These statements do not include all information and notes required by generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) for complete financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the Audited Consolidated Financial Statements and notes thereto for the year ended February 28, 2010 included in Form 10-K. Due to the seasonal nature of our business, operating results for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year. Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.
Note 2, Accrued Liabilities
Accrued liabilities consists of the following at May 31, 2010 and February 28, 2010:

Note 3, Credit Arrangements
On May 27, 2010, we entered into a four-year, $30 million revolving credit facility with Wells Fargo Retail Bank, N.A. secured by all assets of the Company. The agreement allows us to increase the facility to $35 million if needed. Amounts available for borrowing under this facility are based on the valuation of several different asset categories. The value of the Companys inventory is the largest asset category and therefore the bank requires

(In thousands, except share and per share amounts)
that an independent company perform an inventory valuation three times a year. This valuation is based on an estimate of the value that could be realized from an orderly liquidation sale. On May 27, 2010, Bank of America was paid off with respect to any outstanding borrowings, and the payoff amount then became outstanding borrowings under the Wells Fargo facility.
Interest rates under the new facility are variable based on the higher of the Federal Funds rate plus 0.5%, LIBOR rate plus 1% or the Wells Fargo prime rate. An additional 2% is then added to the highest rate to get the total interest rate on the borrowing. Within the credit facility, we have the option to enter into up to five fixed maturity loans with interest calculated at LIBOR plus 3.0%. We will use this facility based on fluctuating operating needs, and pay off the borrowings as quickly as possible. At May 31, 2010, there were outstanding borrowings of $14.0 million under the new Wells Fargo credit facility with an interest rate of 5.25%. At February 28, 2010, there were outstanding borrowings of $11.1 million under the Bank of America facility.
Note 4, Earnings per Share
The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted loss per share for the three months ended May 31, 2010 and 2009:

For the three months ended May 31, 2010 and 2009, stock options to purchase 1,567,034 common shares were excluded from the respective diluted earnings per share calculation because their impact was anti-dilutive.
Note 5, Segment Information
The Companys operations are classified into two operating segments: RoomStore (RS) and Mattress Discounters Group (MDG). These operating segments represent strategic business areas which operate as stand-alone companies and offer two types of home furnishings to its customers.
The RS segment is primarily involved in the sale of furniture and accessories to the consumer and also sells mattress and bedding products. RS profitability is generated through profit margin on the products and related

(In thousands, except share and per share amounts)
fees for product warranties and delivery less the cost of providing products and services and the operating costs of the RS operations. The profit margin is the sales price less the cost of the product plus the transportation costs to get the product to the warehouses.
The MDG segment is primarily involved in the sale of mattresses and related bedding products only. MDG profitability is generated from the profit margin of the bedding products and delivery fees less the cost of providing products and services and the operating costs of the MDG segment.
Inter-segment eliminations result primarily from charges from RS to MDG for providing accounting, human resources, information technology services and distribution and delivery services. The Company evaluates the performance of the segments based on net sales and income (loss) before taxes.
The following table sets forth selected financial information for the two segments for the three months ended May 31, 2010 and 2009.

Item 2. Managements 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 the consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and our audited financial statements for the year ended February 28, 2010 included in our Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on May 28, 2010. This discussion contains certain forward-looking statements, which are based on managements current expectations, estimates and projections about our business. These statements can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as believes, estimates, expects, may, will, should, or anticipates, or the negative thereof or other variations thereon or comparable terminology, or by discussions of strategy. Forward-looking information is based on information available at the time and managements good faith belief with respect to future events, and is subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual performance or results to differ materially from those expressed in the statements.
Such risks and uncertainties include the difficult current retail environment and changing economic conditions that may further adversely affect consumer demand and spending and adversely affect our financial condition, competition in the home furnishings industry that limits our ability to adjust our product prices, our loan agreement covenants triggered when borrowings exceed a specified level that may make it more difficult to operate our business, actions that may be required to satisfy our obligations to our asset-based lender if we are not able to generate sufficient cash to service all our indebtedness, and changes in foreign countries from which we obtain 70% of our merchandise that may affect our operations, as well as the other factors discussed under the Risk Factors section.
Any forward-looking statement that we make speaks only as of the date of this report. We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements or cautionary factors as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law.
Overview
We are among the top 30 furniture retailers in the United States, based on annual revenues. See 2010 Survey of Top 100 Furniture Stores, published on May 26, 2010 by Furniture Today. We operate 60 regular stores using the trade name RoomStore Furniture, two large format stores using the trade name RoomStore World and five clearance centers using the trade names of RoomStore Furniture or Bargain Depot. We are also a 65% owner of Mattress Discounters Group, LLC (MDG), which operates 78 Mattress Discounters stores in Delaware, Maryland, Virginia, Alabama and the District of Columbia as of July 14, 2010.
Since the acquisition of certain Mattress Discounters assets on December 5, 2008 by MDG, we conduct our business as two operating segments: the RoomStore segment (RS) and the Mattress Discounters segment (MDG). The RS segment sells home furnishings and accessories through RoomStore retail stores and internet operations. The MDG segment sells mattresses and bedding products through Mattress Discounters retail stores and internet operations. RS and MDG do not sell merchandise in the same retail locations, except for one store in Alabama, but do share some office and distribution and delivery facilities. Expenses in these shared areas are segregated based on a services agreement.
Our Company continues to be severely impacted by the financial crisis in the United States and abroad as sales volumes continue to be below historical levels. Management has continued to evaluate operating strategies, costs and infrastructure and has made adjustments where warranted to help us through these difficult times.

Comparable RoomStore segment store merchandise sales for the three months ended May 31, 2010 increased approximately $200,000, or 0.3% compared to the three months ended May 31, 2009 and add-on sales (delivery fees and merchandise protection products) increased approximately $650,000 or 12.7% for the same periods. Comparable MDG segment store sales for the three months ended May 31, 2010 increased approximately $825,000, or 6.8% compared to the three months ended May 31, 2009.
The Companys sales are still negatively affected by the continuing weakness in the national economy and a significantly weaker furniture retail industry, but new advertising initiatives are being implemented to help draw customers into the stores as the economy starts to improve. RoomStore had 67 stores at May 31, 2010 and 70 stores at May 31, 2009. MDG had 80 stores at May 31, 2010 and 73 stores at May 31, 2009.
Gross Profit
Gross profit for the three months ended May 31, 2010 was $34.4 million compared to $32.9 million for the three months ended May 31, 2009 and the Company gross profit margin was 43.8% and 42.4%, respectively. The gross profit margin calculation takes into account all merchandise, delivery and warranty product sales and the related merchandise and distribution and delivery costs. The RoomStore segment gross margin was 42.7% for the three months ended May 31, 2010 compared to 42.3% for the three months ended May 31, 2010. The increase in the margin was a result of decreased costs for delivery due to changes in our delivery operations to more outside contractors and a reduction in fuel costs. MDG gross profit margins were 49.0% for the three months ended May 31, 2010 compared to 42.1% for the three months ended May 31, 2009. The lower margin for MDG in the FY10 quarter is related to selling floor samples and other discontinued items purchased at acquisition at a lower sales price to clear out the merchandise to make room for a new bedding line-up.
The RoomStore segment furniture margin increased slightly to 47.5% for the three months ended May 31, 2010 from 47.1% for the same period in the previous year. MDG bedding margins were 51.8% for the three months ended May 31, 2010 and were 43.1% for the three months ended May 31, 2009. The RoomStore segment furniture margin and the MDG bedding margin calculations take into account only the merchandise sales and the true cost of sales for that merchandise.
Selling, General and Administrative
Selling, general and administrative costs decreased to $36.8 million for the three months ended May 31, 2010 from $38.3 million for the three months ended May 31, 2009, and as a percentage of sales decreased to 46.9% from 49.5%.
Efforts have been made to cut costs at all levels of operations where possible. RoomStore segment costs were down $2.5 million for the three months ended May 31, 2010 versus the same period last year. Self insurance costs were approximately $935,000 and $1.6 million for the three months ended May 31, 2010 and 2009. There was a decrease in health insurance claims costs for the year-over-year period but an increase in workers compensation claims.
Total salaries were down approximately $760,000 for the three months ended May 31, 2010 compared to the same period in 2009 although commissions paid to sales personnel are up slightly consistent with the increase in sales volume. The decrease in total salaries is related to the ongoing efforts to streamline operations and evaluate the infrastructure and as a result, back office operations and customer service departments have been consolidated which resulted in lower salaries costs. In addition, some of the delivery operations are being outsourced which also resulted in lower salary costs.

MDG segment costs were up approximately $1.0 million to $7.0 million for the three months ended May 31, 2010. Costs were up in almost all areas of the MDG segment, especially salaries ($370,000), advertising ($350,000) and rent ($140,000), mainly as a result of opening seven new stores and changing the advertising program.
Non-Operating Income and Expense
Interest expense increased 12.6% to $143,000 for the three months ended May 31, 2010 from $127,000 for the prior year period, mainly as a result of additional borrowing to cover operations. MDG operations had no effect on the interest expense for the three months ended May 31, 2010 or 2009.
Income Tax Expense (Benefit)
There was an income tax expense of $120,000 for the three months ended May 31, 2010 compared to an income tax benefit of $2.1 million for the same period in fiscal 2010. The effective tax rate for the three months ended May 31, 2010 and 2009 was (4.9)% and 39.9%, respectively. The tax expense in FY11 represents franchise tax expense, mainly for the state of Texas. A valuation allowance was recorded to completely reserve the income tax benefit for fiscal 2011 tax losses which will be carried forward into future years.
Net Loss and Loss per Share
Diluted loss per share attributable to RoomStore, Inc. stockholders was $(0.26) for the three months ended May 31, 2010 and $(0.33) for the same period of fiscal 2010. For the three months ended May 31, 2010, there was a pre- tax loss of $2.4 million for the RoomStore segment and a pre-tax loss of $98,000 for the MDG segment. For the three months ended May 31, 2009, there was a pre- tax loss of $4.9 million for the RoomStore segment and a pre-tax loss of $668,000 for the MDG segment. Weighted average shares outstanding used in the calculation of earnings per common share on a diluted basis were 9.8 million for the three months ended May 31, 2010 and 2009.
Liquidity and Financial Position
Liquidity
Cash and cash equivalents at May 31, 2010 was $5.7 million compared to $733,000 at February 28, 2010. Net cash provided by operations was $188,000 for the three months ended May 31, 2010 and $2.2 million for the FY10 period. MDG provided $282,000 net cash for the three months ended May 31, 2010 and $2.2 million for the FY10 period. The RoomStore segment was negatively impacted by the net loss of $1.4 million and $2.9 million for the three months ended May 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. The loss for the three months ended May 31, 2010 and 2009 is a result of the continued weak retail economy in the United States and particularly in the furniture industry.
Net cash provided by investing activities was $1.8 million for the three months ended May 31, 2010 and net cash used by investing activities was $193,000 for the FY10 period. In April 2010, the Company sold its Lanham, Maryland retail store to Creative Distribution Services, LLC for $2.6 million, of which $2.0 million was paid in cash and is reflected in the May 31, 2010 cash provided by investing activities. The remaining $600,000 was recorded as a note receivable and a deferred gain. The note receivable will be payable over two years and the deferred gain will be recognized over the life of the 10-year lease.
The Companys credit facility with Bank of America, N.A. expired on May 31, 2010 and a new credit facility agreement was entered into with Wells Fargo Retail Bank, N.A. (Wells Fargo). On May 27, 2010, Bank of America was paid off with respect to any outstanding borrowings, and the payoff amount then became outstanding borrowings under the Wells Fargo facility. Due to this credit facility change-over, both borrowings

and repayments of the credit facility loan are higher than what normally would be shown in the statement of cash flows. Net borrowings under the facility were $3.1 million for the three months ended May 31, 2010 and net repayments were $129,000 for the three months ended May 31, 2009. See Financing and Debt.
The increase in cash to $5.7 million at May 31, 2010 from $733,000 at February 28, 2010 was due to timing of the financing. The new facility with Wells Fargo closed on May 27, 2010 and due to the timing at the end of the month, additional borrowings were made on the Bank of America facility before the closing to cover any cash needs that might have arisen during the transition period and repayments were not made until June.
Two significant factors have impacted our cash flow over the past few years: increased competition and decreased consumer spending due to the recession. Furniture sales are closely linked to housing sales and as the housing markets peaked in 2005 and have fallen steadily since then, our sales have tracked this decline. We do not foresee any significant increase in furniture retail sales in the near future, and the Company expects liquidity to continue to be tight through the remainder of fiscal 2011. To address this situation, the Company has carefully reviewed, and continues to review, all operational expenses. Based on this review process, the Company has closed a few unprofitable stores, deferred optional capital expenditures, changed the focus and amount of advertising, consolidated distribution and delivery processes, reduced inventory levels, reduced salaries and benefits and has reduced personnel. Sources of liquidity during the remainder of fiscal 2011 will continue to be from operations, the use of the credit facility and tax refunds from the loss carry-back generated by the losses experienced in fiscal 2009 and 2010, which the Company believes will be sufficient.
The Company also took advantage of a significant opportunity with its purchase of the MDG business in December 2008. The Company determined that one of the reasons for the bankruptcy of the former Mattress Discounters Corporation was excessive overhead and operating expenses. Mattress Discounters Corporation had a large corporate office staff and an expensive distribution and delivery system. RoomStore actually had excess capacity due to declining sales, and this excess capacity was used to provide distribution, delivery and office support for MDG after the acquisition. This arrangement allowed the Company to preserve certain jobs and positions that might have otherwise been eliminated. Since the acquisition of the MDG business in December 2008, the MDG business has continued to improve. Any net profits from the MDG business can be distributed pro-rata to its owners.
Financial Position
Receivables increased by $3.7 million, or 93.2%, to a total of $7.6 million at May 31, 2010 from the balance at February 28, 2010. This increase was primarily a result of timings of payments from third party financing and credit card companies at May 31, 2010. The Memorial Day sale is one of the biggest sales events for the Company and with the holiday being on the last day of the month this year, the majority of the sales were not delivered until June and payments from the credit companies were not received until the beginning of the following month.
Property, plant and equipment decreased $2.8 million mainly as a result of the sale of the Lanham, Maryland retail store to Creative Distribution Services, LLC in April 2010.
Accrued liabilities increased $4.7 million, or 24.5% to $24.0 million at May 31, 2010 from the balance at February 28, 2010. This increase is mainly due to increases in accrued compensation and benefits, accrued advertising and customer deposits related to merchandise orders placed but not yet delivered at the end of each period.
Deferred revenue increased $2.1 million, or 34.7% to $8.3 million at May 31, 2010 from the balance at February 28, 2010. This increase is mainly due to the deferred revenues related to the Memorial Day sales event that were not delivered until June and the deferred gain of $600,000 related to the sale of the Lanham, Maryland building.

Financing and Debt
On May 27, 2010, we entered into a four-year, $30 million revolving credit facility with Wells Fargo Retail Bank, N.A. secured by all assets of the Company. The agreement has a feature which allows us to increase the facility to $35 million if needed. Amounts available for borrowing under this facility are based on the valuation of several different asset categories. The value of the Companys inventory is the largest asset category and therefore the bank requires that an independent company perform an inventory valuation three times a year. This valuation is based on an estimate of the value that could be realized from an orderly liquidation sale. On May 27, 2010, Bank of America was paid off with respect to any outstanding borrowings, and the payoff amount then became outstanding borrowings under the Wells Fargo facility.
Interest rates under the new facility are variable based on the higher of the Federal Funds rate plus 0.5%, LIBOR rate plus 1% or the Wells Fargo prime rate. An additional 2% is then added to the highest rate to get the total interest rate on the borrowing. Within the credit facility, we have the option to enter into up to five fixed maturity loans with interest calculated at LIBOR plus 3.0%. We will use this facility based on fluctuating operating needs, and pay off the borrowings as quickly as possible. At May 31, 2010, there were outstanding borrowings of $14.0 million under the new Wells Fargo credit facility. At February 28, 2010, there were outstanding borrowings of $11.1 million under the Bank of America facility.
