STANLEY FURNITURE COMPANY, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


1. Preparation of Interim Unaudited Consolidated financial statements

The consolidated financial statements of Stanley Furniture Company, Inc.
(referred to as "Stanley" or the "Company") have been prepared in accordance
with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission
("SEC"). In the opinion of management, these statements include all adjustments
necessary for a fair presentation of the results of all interim periods reported
herein. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. Certain
information and footnote disclosures prepared in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles have been either condensed or omitted pursuant to
SEC rules and regulations. However, management believes that the disclosures
made are adequate for a fair presentation of results of operations and financial
position. Operating results for the interim periods reported herein may not be
indicative of the results expected for the year. It is suggested that these
consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the consolidated
financial statements and accompanying notes included in Stanley's latest Annual
Report on Form 10-K.

2. Stock Compensation

The Company applies Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25 in accounting for
stock options and discloses the fair value of options granted as permitted by
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123. No stock-based employee
compensation cost is reflected in net income, as all options granted under those
plans had an exercise price equal to the market value of the common stock at
date of grant.

The following table summarizes the pro forma effects assuming compensation cost
for such awards had been recorded based upon the estimated fair value (in
thousands, except per share data):

3. Restructuring and Related Charges

Beginning in December 2001, the Company has executed a plan to consolidate its
manufacturing operations to maximize production efficiencies as a result of
excess capacity created by expanded offshore sourcing. Manufacturing operations
at its former West End, North Carolina facility were phased out during 2002,
including the sale of real estate. The remaining restructuring accrual at
September 27, 2003 of $252,000 consists of a lease obligation and certain
severance cost.

option, prime minus 1.0% (3.0% on September 27, 2003). There were no material
changes in the financial covenants under the new agreement.

6. Stockholders' Equity

During the first nine months of 2003, the Company purchased and retired 565,000
shares of its common stock at an aggregate consideration of $14.8 million.

7. Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2002, the FASB issued Statement No. 148 (FAS 148), "Accounting for
Stock-Based Compensation - Transition and Disclosure - an Amendment to FASB
Statement No. 123". FAS No. 148 amends FASB Statement No. 123, "Accounting for
Stock-Based Compensation," to permit additional transition methods for entities
that adopt the fair-value based method of accounting for stock-based employee
compensation. For those companies that do not elect to change their method of
accounting for stock-based employee compensation, FAS 148 requires increased
disclosure of the pro forma impact of applying the fair value method to the
reported operating results. The increased disclosure requirements apply to the
Company's interim and annual financial statements beginning in the first quarter
of 2003 and are presented in Note 2 of the financial statements.

In April 2003, the FASB issued Statement No. 149 (FAS 149), "Amendment of
Statement 133 on Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities". FAS 149 amends
and clarifies financial accounting and reporting for derivative instruments,
including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts
(collectively referred to as derivatives) and for hedging activities under FASB
Statement No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging
Activities". This Statement is effective for contracts entered into or modified
after June 30, 2003 and for hedging relationships designated after June 30,
2003. The Company did not have any derivative instruments or hedging activities
during the nine months ended September 27, 2003. Adoption of FAS 149 did not
have a material effect the Company's financial statements.

In May 2003, the FASB issued Statement No. 150 (FAS 150), "Accounting for
Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and
Equity". FAS 150 establishes standards for how an issuer classifies and measures
in its statement of financial position certain financial instruments with
characteristics of both liabilities and equity. It requires that an issuer
classify a financial instrument that is within its scope as a liability (or an
asset in some circumstances) because that financial instrument embodies an
obligation of the issuer. This Statement is effective for financial instruments
entered into or modified after May 31, 2003, and otherwise is effective at the
beginning of the first interim period beginning after June 15, 2003. Adoption of
FAS 150 did not have a material effect on the Company's financial statements.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations

Results of Operations

The Company continues to implement a blended strategy of combining its domestic
manufacturing capabilities with an expanding offshore sourcing program and
realign manufacturing capacity. Integration of selected imported component parts
and finished items in its product line will lower costs, provide design
flexibility and offer a better value to its customers. This initiative created
excess capacity in the Company's manufacturing facilities. Accordingly, in
December 2001, the Company decided to close its manufacturing operations at the
West End, North Carolina factory and consolidate production from this facility
into other Company facilities. In 2002, manufacturing operations at the West End
facility were completely phased out and all closing related activities including
the sale of real estate were completed. Restructuring and related cost for the
nine month period of 2002 was $3.5 million and consisted of accelerated
depreciation and other exit costs, including plant inefficiencies and severance
cost. During the third quarter of 2002, the Company determined that $209,000 of
restructuring related inventory reserves were no longer required and credited
the amount back to income. The restructuring accrual consisting of a lease
obligation for real estate and severance costs continued to be paid down during
2003, and is approximately $252,000 as of September 27, 2003.

As part of the Company's continuing efforts to evaluate its manufacturing
capacity, the Company announced in March 2003, a plan to realign production at
its Lexington, North Carolina facility. Currently this facility produces a
combination of adult bedroom and Young America(R) youth bedroom furniture. After
a transition period, the Lexington plant will focus exclusively on Young
America(R) products. Adult bedroom products currently manufactured at the
Lexington facility will be absorbed by the Stanleytown, Virginia plant, which
will produce adult bedroom and dining room products. The Martinsville, Virginia
location will continue to manufacture home entertainment and home office
furniture while the Robbinsville, North Carolina plant remains focused on the
production of Young America(R) products. The realignment has reduced operations
at the Lexington plant impacting approximately 150 of the 525 associates there
and was completed during the second quarter of 2003.

The Company will continue to evaluate its manufacturing capacity needs
considering increased offshore sourcing, current and anticipated demand for its
product, overall market conditions and other factors deemed relevant by
management. Further capacity reductions could cause asset impairment or other
restructuring charges in the future.

The following table sets forth the percentage relationship to net sales of
certain items included in the Consolidated Statements of Income:

===== ===== ===== =====


Net sales increased $3.9 million, or 6.3%, for the three month period ended
September 27, 2003 from the comparable 2002 period. For the nine month period,
net sales increased $11.8 million, or 6.7%, from the 2002 period. The increase
for the three and nine month periods was primarily due to higher unit volume.
The higher unit volume in the third quarter was partially offset by lower
average selling prices.

Gross profit margin for the three and nine month periods of 2003 was 24.0% and
23.9%, respectively, compared to 24.7% and 22.3% for the 2002 periods. The lower
gross profit margin for the nine month period of 2002 is primarily due to
restructuring and related charges resulting from closing a factory to realign
the Company's manufacturing facilities. Excluding restructuring and related
charges in 2002, gross profit margin for the three and nine month period of 2003
decreased primarily due to transition and start up costs from increased sourcing
including lower production levels at the Company's domestic facilities, and an
increase in wages and benefits. These costs were mostly offset by savings from
sourcing initiatives and realignment of manufacturing capacity.

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the three and nine month
periods of 2003 as a percentage of net sales increased to 14.1% and 13.9%,
respectively, from 13.0% and 13.5% for the comparable 2002 periods. Selling,
general and administrative expenditures increased in the three and nine month
periods of 2003 primarily due to the Company's sourcing program, increased
marketing and product development costs. This trend is expected to continue
resulting in higher selling, general and administrative expense in the fourth
quarter of 2003 compared to the fourth quarter of 2002.

As a result of the above, operating income as a percentage of net sales was 9.9%
and 10.0% for the three and nine month periods of 2003, compared to 11.7% and
8.8%, respectively, for the comparable 2002 periods.

Interest expense for the three and nine month periods of 2003 decreased
primarily due to lower average debt levels.

The effective tax rate is expected to be 36.3% for 2003 compared to 35.5% for
2002. The increase in the effective tax rate is primarily due to higher state
income taxes resulting from the phase-out of certain state tax credits.

Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash generated from operations was $12.5 million in the first nine months of
2003 compared to $13.6 million in the 2002 period. The increase in cash received
from customers and cash paid to suppliers and employees was primarily due to
higher sales. Higher tax payments resulting from an increase in earnings offset
cash generated from higher sales.

Net cash used by investing activities was $649,000 in the 2003 period compared
to cash provided by investing activities of $91,000 in 2002. In 2002, the
Company received net proceeds of $696,000 from the sale of real estate at its
former West End, North Carolina facility. Capital expenditures in 2003 are
anticipated to be approximately $1.0 to $1.5 million.

Net cash used by financing activities was $19.6 million in the 2003 period
compared to $7.0 million in the 2002 period. In the 2003 period, cash from
operations, available cash and proceeds from the revolving credit facility
provided funds for the purchase of Company common stock, senior debt payments,
and cash dividends. During the 2003 period, $14.8 million was used to purchase
565,000 shares of the Company's common stock in the open market at an average
price of $26.15. Approximately $10.2 million remains authorized by the Company's
Board of Directors to repurchase shares of the Company's common stock. In the
2002 period, cash from operations and proceeds from the exercise of stock
options provided cash for senior debt payments and repayment of the revolving
credit facility.

At September 27, 2003, long-term debt including current maturities was $24.8
million. Debt service requirements are $2.1 million remaining in 2003, $7.0
million in 2004, $4.3 million in 2005, $2.9 million in 2006 and $2.9 million in
2007. During the third quarter, the Company entered into a new revolving credit
agreement. The new agreement provides for maximum borrowings of $25.0 million
and matures in August 2005. As of September 27, 2003, approximately $24.3
million of additional borrowings were available under this revolving credit
facility and cash on hand was $1.4 million. The Company believes that its
financial resources are adequate to support its capital needs and debt service
requirements.

FAS 150 did not have a material effect on the Company's financial statements.

Forward-Looking Statements

Certain statements made in this report are not based on historical facts, but
are forward-looking statements. 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. These
statements reflect the Company's reasonable judgment with respect to future
events and are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual
results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements. Such
risks and uncertainties include competition in the furniture industry including
competition from lower-cost foreign manufacturers, the Company's success in
implementing its blended strategy of expanded offshore sourcing and domestic
manufacturing, disruptions in offshore sourcing including those arising from
supply or distribution disruptions or changes in political or economic
conditions affecting the countries from which the Company obtains offshore
sourcing, the cyclical nature of the furniture industry, fluctuations in the
price for lumber which is the most significant raw material used by the Company,
credit exposure to customers in the current economic climate, capital costs and
general economic conditions. Any forward looking statement speaks only as of the
date of this filing, and the Company undertakes no obligation to update or
revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new developments
or otherwise.

ITEM 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

Because the Company's obligation under its revolving credit facility bears
interest at a variable rate, the Company is sensitive to changes in prevailing
interest rates. A one-percentage point fluctuation in market interest rates
would not have a material impact on earnings during the first nine months of
2003.

ITEM 4. Controls and Procedures

The Company's principal executive officer and principal financial officer have
concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in
Exchange Act Rule 13a-14(c)), based on their evaluation of such controls and
procedures conducted as of the end of the period covered by this report, are
effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in
the reports it files under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is
recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified
in the rules and forms of the Securities and Exchange Commission and that such
information is accumulated and communicated to the Company's management,
including its principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as
appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

There have been no changes in the Company's internal control over financial
reporting that occurred during the Company's last fiscal quarter that have
materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the
Company's internal control over financial reporting.
