ITEM 1. Business

Description of Business

PART I

Crown Crafts, Inc. (the “Company”) operates indirectly through its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Crown Crafts
Infant Products, Inc. (“CCIP”) and Hamco, Inc. (“Hamco”), in the infant and toddler products segment within the
consumer products industry. The infant and toddler segment consists of infant and toddler bedding and blankets, bibs,
soft bath products, disposable products and accessories. Sales of the Company’s products are generally made directly
to retailers, which are primarily mass merchants, mid-tier retailers, juvenile specialty stores, value channel stores,
grocery and drug stores, restaurants, internet accounts and wholesale clubs. The Company’s products are
manufactured primarily in Asia and marketed under a variety of Company-owned trademarks, under trademarks
licensed from others and as private label goods.

The Company's fiscal year ends on the Sunday nearest to or on March 31. References herein to “fiscal year
2014” or “2014” and “fiscal year 2013” or “2013” represent the 52-week periods ended March 30, 2014 and March 31,
2013, respectively.

Products

The Company's primary focus is on infant, toddler and juvenile products, including the following:

crib and toddler bedding

●
● blankets
● nursery and toddler accessories
●
●
● burp cloths
● hooded bath towels and washcloths

room décor
reusable and disposable bibs

● disposable placemats, cup labels, toilet seat covers and changing mats
●
● other infant, toddler and juvenile soft goods

reusable and disposable floor mats

Government Regulation and Environmental Control

The Company is subject to various federal, state and local environmental laws and regulations, which regulate,
among other things, product safety and the discharge, storage, handling and disposal of a variety of substances and
wastes, and to laws and regulations relating to employee safety and health, principally the Occupational Safety and
Health Administration Act and regulations thereunder. The Company believes that it currently complies in all material
respects with applicable environmental, health and safety laws and regulations and that future compliance with such
existing laws or regulations will not have a material adverse effect on its capital expenditures, earnings or competitive
position. However, there is no assurance that such requirements will not become more stringent in the future or that
the Company will not have to incur significant costs to comply with such requirements.

Sales and Marketing

The Company’s products are marketed through a national sales force consisting of salaried sales executives
and employees located in Compton, California; Gonzales, Louisiana; and Bentonville, Arkansas. Products are also
marketed by independent commissioned sales representatives located throughout the United States. Sales outside the
United States are made primarily through distributors.

Substantially all products are sold to retailers for resale to consumers. The Company's subsidiaries introduce
new products throughout the year and participate at the ABC Kids Expo, the National Restaurant Association
Restaurant, Hotel-Motel Show and the General Merchandising and Health Beauty Wellness Conferences presented by
the Global Market Development Center.

Product Sourcing

The Company's products are produced by foreign and domestic manufacturers, with the largest concentration
being in China. The Company makes sourcing decisions on the basis of quality, timeliness of delivery and price,
including the impact of ocean freight and duties. Although the Company maintains relationships with a limited
number of suppliers, the Company believes that its products may be readily manufactured by several alternative
sources in quantities sufficient to meet the Company's requirements. The Company’s management and quality
assurance personnel visit the third-party facilities regularly to monitor and audit product quality and to ensure
compliance with labor requirements and social and environmental standards. In addition, the Company closely
monitors the currency exchange rate. The impact of future fluctuations in the exchange rate or changes in safeguards
cannot be predicted with certainty at this time.

The Company maintains a foreign representative office located in Shanghai, China, which is responsible for the
coordination of production, purchases and shipments, seeking out new vendors and overseeing inspections for social
compliance and quality.

The Company’s products are warehoused and distributed from a facility located in Compton, California.

Product Design and Styling

The Company believes that its creative team is one of its key strengths. The Company’s product designs are
primarily created internally and are supplemented by numerous additional sources, including independent artists,
decorative fabric manufacturers and apparel designers. Ideas for product design creations are drawn from various
sources and are reviewed and modified by the design staff to ensure consistency within the Company’s existing
product offerings and the themes and images associated with such existing products. In order to respond effectively to
changing consumer preferences, the Company’s designers and stylists attempt to stay abreast of emerging lifestyle
trends in color, fashion and design. When designing products under the Company’s various licensed brands, the
Company’s designers coordinate their efforts with the licensors’ design teams to provide for a more fluid design
approval process and to effectively incorporate the image of the licensed brand into the product. The Company’s

designs include traditional, contemporary, textured and whimsical patterns across a broad spectrum of retail price
points. Utilizing state of the art computer technology, the Company continually develops new designs throughout the
year for all of its product groups. This continual development cycle affords the Company design flexibility, multiple
opportunities to present new products to customers and the ability to provide timely responses to customer demands
and changing market trends. The Company also creates designs for exclusive sale by certain of its customers under the
Company’s brands, as well as the customers’ private label brands.

Competition

The infant and toddler consumer products industry is highly competitive. The Company competes with a
variety of distributors and manufacturers (both branded and private label), including large infant and juvenile product
companies and specialty infant and juvenile product manufacturers, on the basis of quality, design, price, brand name
recognition, service and packaging. The Company’s ability to compete depends principally on styling, price, service to
the retailer and continued high regard for the Company’s products and trade names.

Customers

The Company's customers consist principally of mass merchants, mid-tier retailers, juvenile specialty stores,
value channel stores, grocery and drug stores, restaurants, internet accounts and wholesale clubs. The Company does
not enter into long-term or other purchase agreements with its customers. The table below sets forth those customers
that represented at least 10% of the Company’s gross sales in fiscal years 2014 and 2013.

* Amount represented less than 10% of the Company's gross sales for this fiscal year.

Seasonality and Inventory Management

There are no significant variations in the seasonal demand for the Company’s products from year to year. Sales
are generally higher in periods when customers take initial shipments of new products, as these orders typically include
enough products for initial sets for each store and additional quantities for the customer’s distribution centers. The
timing of these initial shipments varies by customer and depends on when the customer finalizes store layouts for the
upcoming year and whether the customer has any mid-year introductions of products. Sales may also be higher or
lower, as the case may be, in periods when customers are restricting internal inventory levels. Consistent with the
expected introduction of specific product offerings, the Company carries necessary levels of inventory to meet the
anticipated delivery requirements of its customers. Customer returns of merchandise shipped are historically less than
1% of gross sales.

Trademarks, Copyrights and Patents

The Company considers its intellectual property to be of material importance to its business. Sales of products
marketed under the Company’s trademarks, primarily NoJo® and Neat Solutions®, accounted for 26% and 28% of the
Company’s total gross sales during fiscal years 2014 and 2013, respectively. Protection for these trademarks is obtained
through domestic and foreign registrations. The Company also markets designs which are subject to copyrights and
design patents owned by the Company.

Employees

At May 30, 2014, the Company had 140 employees, none of whom is represented by a labor union or is
otherwise a party to a collective bargaining agreement. The Company attracts and maintains qualified personnel by
paying competitive salaries and benefits and offering opportunities for advancement. The Company considers its
relationship with its employees to be good.

International Sales

Sales to customers in countries other than the United States represented 3% and 2% of the Company’s total
gross sales during fiscal years 2014 and 2013, respectively. International sales are based upon the location that
predominately represents the final destination of the products delivered to the Company’s customers.

Licensed Products

Certain products are manufactured and sold pursuant to licensing agreements for trademarks. Also, many of
the designs used by the Company are copyrighted by other parties, including trademark licensors, and are available to
the Company through copyright license agreements. The licensing agreements are generally for an initial term of one
to three years and may or may not be subject to renewal or extension. Sales of licensed products represented 61% of
the Company’s gross sales in fiscal year 2014, which included 38% of sales under the Company's license agreements
with affiliated companies of The Walt Disney Company (“Disney”). Each such license agreement with Disney expires on
December 31, 2015.

ITEM 1A. Risk Factors

The following risk factors as well as the other information contained in this report and other filings made by the
Company with the SEC should be considered in evaluating the Company’s business. Additional risks and uncertainties not
presently known to us or that we currently consider immaterial may also impair our business operations. If any of the
following risks actually occur, operating results may be affected in future periods.

The loss of one or more of the Company’s key customers could result in a material loss of revenues.

The Company’s top two customers represented approximately 60% of gross sales in fiscal year 2014. Although
the Company does not enter into contracts with its key customers, it expects them to continue to be a significant
portion of its gross sales in the future. The loss of one or more of these customers could result in a material decrease in
the Company’s revenue and operating income.

The Company’s business is impacted by general economic conditions and related uncertainties affecting
markets in which the Company operates.

Economic conditions, including the availability of credit and the possibility of a global recession, could
adversely impact the Company’s business. These conditions could result in reduced demand for some of the
Company’s products, increased order cancellations and returns, an increased risk of excess and obsolete inventories
and increased pressure on the prices of the Company’s products. Also, although the Company’s use of a commercial
factor significantly reduces the risk associated with collecting accounts receivable, the factor may at any time terminate
or limit its approval of shipments to a particular customer, and the likelihood of the factor doing so may increase due to
a change in economic conditions. Such an action by the factor could result in the loss of future sales to the affected
customer.

The loss of one or more of the Company’s licenses could result in a material loss of revenues.

Sales of licensed products represented 61% of the Company’s gross sales in fiscal year 2014, which included
38% of sales associated with the Company’s license agreements with Disney. The Company could experience a material
loss of revenues if it is unable to renew its major license agreements or obtain new licenses.

The Company’s inability to anticipate and respond to consumers’ tastes and preferences could adversely affect
the Company’s revenues.

Sales are driven by consumer demand for the Company’s products. There can be no assurance that the
demand for the Company’s products will not decline or that the Company will be able to anticipate and respond to

changes in demand. The Company’s failure to adapt to these changes could lead to lower sales and excess inventory,
which could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition and operating results.

The Company’s ability to comply with its credit facility is subject to future performance and other factors.

The Company’s ability to make required payments of principal and interest on its debts, to refinance its
maturing indebtedness, to fund capital expenditures or to comply with its debt covenants will depend upon future
performance. The Company’s future performance is, to a certain extent, subject to general economic, financial,
competitive, legislative, regulatory and other factors beyond its control. The breach of any of these covenants could
result in a default under the Company’s credit facility. Upon the occurrence of an event of default, the Company’s
lender could make an immediate demand of the amount outstanding under the credit facility. If a default was to occur
and such a demand was to be made, there can be no assurance that the Company’s assets would be sufficient to repay
the indebtedness in full.

Customer pricing pressures could result in lower selling prices, which could negatively affect the Company’s
operating results.

The Company’s customers could place pressure on the Company to reduce the prices of its products. The
Company continuously strives to stay ahead of its competition in sourcing, which allows the Company to obtain lower
cost products while maintaining high standards for quality. There can be no assurance that the Company could
respond to a decrease in sales prices by proportionately reducing its costs, which could adversely affect the Company’s
operating results.

The strength of the Company’s competitors may impact the Company’s ability to maintain and grow its sales,
which could decrease the Company’s revenues.

The infant and toddler consumer products industry is highly competitive. The Company competes with a
variety of distributors and manufacturers, both branded and private label. The Company’s ability to compete
successfully depends principally on styling, price, service to the retailer and continued high regard for the Company’s
products and trade names. Several of these competitors are larger than the Company and have greater financial
resources than the Company, and some have experienced financial challenges from time to time, including servicing
significant levels of debt. Those facing financial pressures could choose to make particularly aggressive pricing
decisions in an attempt to increase revenue. The effects of increased competition could result in a material decrease in
the Company’s revenues.

Changes in international trade regulations and other risks associated with foreign trade could adversely affect
the Company’s sourcing.

The Company sources its products primarily from foreign contract manufacturers, with the largest
concentration being in China. The adoption of regulations related to the importation of product, including quotas,
duties, taxes and other charges or restrictions on imported goods, and changes in U.S. customs procedures could result
in an increase in the cost of the Company’s products. Delays in customs clearance of goods or the disruption of
international transportation lines used by the Company could result in the Company being unable to deliver goods to
customers in a timely manner or the potential loss of sales altogether.

The Company’s sourcing and marketing operations in foreign countries are subject to anti-corruption laws.

The Company’s foreign operations are subject to laws prohibiting improper payments and bribery, including
the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act and similar laws and regulations in foreign jurisdictions, which apply to the
Company’s directors, officers, employees and agents acting on behalf of the Company. Failure to comply with these
laws could result in damage to the Company’s reputation, a diversion of management’s attention from its business,
increased legal and investigative costs, and civil and criminal penalties, any or all of which could adversely affect the
Company’s operating results.

The Company’s debt covenants may affect its liquidity or limit its ability to pursue acquisitions, incur debt,
make investments, sell assets or complete other significant transactions.

The Company’s credit facility contains usual and customary covenants regarding significant transactions,
including restrictions on other indebtedness, liens, transfers of assets, investments and acquisitions, merger or
consolidation transactions, transactions with affiliates and changes in or amendments to the organizational documents
for the Company and its subsidiaries. Unless waived by the Company’s lender, these covenants could limit the
Company’s ability to pursue opportunities to expand its business operations, respond to changes in business and
economic conditions and obtain additional financing, or otherwise engage in transactions that the Company considers
beneficial.

The Company’s success is dependent upon retaining key management personnel.

The Company’s ability to retain qualified executive management and other key personnel is vital to the
Company’s success. If the Company were unable to retain or attract qualified individuals, the Company’s growth and
operating results could be materially impacted.

The Company may need to write down or write off inventory.

If product programs end before the inventory is completely sold, then the remaining inventory may have to be
sold at less than carrying value. The market value of certain inventory items could drop to below carrying value after a
decline in sales, at the end of programs, or when management makes the decision to exit a product group. Such
inventory would then need to be written down to the lower of carrying or market value, or possibly completely written
off, which would adversely affect the Company’s operating results.

Economic conditions could result in an increase in the amounts paid for the Company’s products.

Significant increases in the price of raw materials that are components of the Company’s products, including
cotton, oil and labor, could adversely affect the amounts that the Company must pay its suppliers for its finished goods.
If the Company is unable to pass these cost increases along to its customers, its profitability could be adversely
affected.

Recalls or product liability claims could increase costs or reduce sales.

The Company must comply with the Consumer Product Safety Improvement Act, which imposes strict
standards to protect children from potentially harmful products and which requires that the Company’s products be
tested to ensure that they are within acceptable levels for lead and phthalates. The Company must also comply with
related regulations developed by the Consumer Product Safety Commission and similar state regulatory authorities.
The Company’s products could be subject to involuntary recalls and other actions by these authorities, and concerns
about product safety may lead the Company to voluntarily recall, accept returns or discontinue the sale of select
products. Product liability claims could exceed or fall outside the scope of the Company’s insurance coverage. Recalls or
product liability claims could result in decreased consumer demand for the Company’s products, damage to the
Company’s reputation, a diversion of management’s attention from its business, and increased customer service and
support costs, any or all of which could adversely affect the Company’s operating results.

The Company could experience losses associated with its intellectual property.

The Company relies upon the fair interpretation and enforcement of patent, copyright, trademark and trade
secret laws in the U.S., similar laws in other countries, and agreements with employees, customers, suppliers, licensors
and other parties. Such reliance serves to establish and maintain the intellectual property rights associated with the
products that the Company develops and sells. However, the laws and courts of certain countries at times do not
protect intellectual property rights or respect contractual agreements to the same extent as the laws of the U.S.
Therefore, in certain jurisdictions the Company may not be able to protect its intellectual property rights against
counterfeiting or enforce its contractual agreements with other parties.

Other entities could also claim that the Company is infringing upon their intellectual property rights, and some
of these claims could lead to a civil complaint. A recent trend is for an entity to purchase an intellectual property asset
similar to a given company’s, but with no intention of developing and selling an associated product. Instead, the
buyer’s only intention is to assert a claim of infringement in an attempt to extract a settlement from the company
allegedly infringing. To that end, the Company and CCIP have been in protracted litigation with BreathableBaby, LLC
(“BreathableBaby”), which has alleged that CCIP’s mesh crib liner infringes BreathableBaby’s patent rights relating to its
air permeable infant bedding technology.

The occurrence of any or all of the foregoing events or an unfavorable outcome in the BreathableBaby
litigation could result in any or all of the following: (i) civil judgments against the Company, which could require the
payment of royalties on both past and future sales of certain products, as well as plaintiff’s attorneys’ fees and other
litigation costs; (ii) impairment charges of up to the carrying value of the Company’s intellectual property rights; (iii)
restrictions on the ability of the Company to sell certain of its products; (iv) legal and other costs associated with
investigations and litigation; and (v) a degradation of the Company’s competitive position.

Currency exchange rate fluctuations and other supplier-related risks could increase the Company’s expenses.

The Company’s products are manufactured by foreign contract manufacturers, with the largest concentration
being in China. Difficulties encountered by these suppliers, such as fire, accident, natural disasters, outbreaks of
contagious diseases or economic and political instability, could halt or disrupt production of the Company’s products.
Also, restrictive actions by foreign governments, a strengthening of the Chinese currency versus the U.S. dollar or
changes in import duties or import or export restrictions could increase the prices at which the Company purchases
finished goods. If the Company is unable to pass these cost increases along to its customers, its profitability could be
adversely affected.

A stockholder could lose all or a portion of his or her investment in the Company.

The Company’s common stock has historically experienced a degree of price variability, and the price could be
subject to rapid and substantial fluctuations. The Company’s common stock has also historically been thinly traded, a
circumstance that exists when there is a relatively small volume of buy and sell orders for the Company’s common
stock at any given point in time. In such situations, a stockholder may be unable to liquidate his or her position in the
Company’s common stock at the desired price. Also, as an equity investment, a stockholder’s investment in the
Company is subordinate to the interests of the Company’s creditors, and a stockholder could lose all or a substantial
portion of his or her investment in the Company in the event of a voluntary or involuntary bankruptcy filing or
liquidation.

ITEM 2. Properties

The Company's headquarters are located in Gonzales, Louisiana. The Company rents 17,761 square feet at this
location under a lease that expires January 31, 2015. Management believes that its properties are suitable for the
purposes for which they are used, are in generally good condition and provide adequate capacity for current and
anticipated future operations. The Company's business is somewhat seasonal so that during certain times of the year
these facilities are fully utilized, while at other times of the year the Company has excess capacity in these facilities. The
table below sets forth certain information regarding the Company's principal real property as of May 30, 2014:

ITEM 3. Legal Proceedings

BreathableBaby filed a complaint against the Company and CCIP on January 11, 2012 in the United States
District Court for the District of Minnesota, alleging that CCIP’s mesh crib liner infringes BreathableBaby’s patent rights
relating to its air permeable infant bedding technology. The Company believes that it has meritorious defenses to the
claims asserted in the complaint, and the Company intends to defend itself vigorously against all such claims. The
Company and CCIP filed a motion for summary judgment of non-infringement on May 14, 2012. On July 25, 2012, the
Court entered an order denying that motion without prejudice to refiling it at the close of discovery. In doing so, the
Court did not rule on the merits of the Company’s motion, but instead determined that further discovery was required
before a motion for summary judgment could be decided. Discovery accordingly was resumed; however, on August 6,
2013, upon becoming concerned that the costs of discovery and litigation were quickly surpassing the amount in
controversy, the Court ordered a temporary stay of all discovery.

Net Sales: Sales of $81.3 million for 2014 were higher than 2013, having increased 3.7%, or $2.9 million. The
majority of the sales increase was due to the introduction of three new programs during the second quarter of the
current year.

Gross Profit: Gross profit increased in amount by $2.8 million and increased as a percentage of net sales from
25.2% to 27.7%. The increase as a percentage of net sales can be attributed to a more favorable product mix in the
current year compared with the prior year. The higher level of sales in the current year also provided better coverage of
the fixed portion of the Company’s cost of sales than in the prior year. Additionally, the Company in the current year
experienced a decline of $248,000 in costs associated with the Company’s rental of an auxiliary warehouse and
distribution center, which the Company vacated and sublet late in fiscal year 2013.

Marketing and Administrative Expenses: Marketing and administrative expenses for fiscal year 2014 increased
in amount and as a percentage of net sales as compared with fiscal year 2013 primarily due to increases in the
Company’s performance-based compensation costs. The Company also in the current year experienced increased legal
fees, primarily associated with the Company’s defense of two lawsuits.

Interest Expense and Income: Interest expense decreased by $32,000 in fiscal year 2014 as compared to fiscal
year 2013 due primarily to a reduction, effective as of July 11, 2013, from 0.25% to 0.125% in the fee payable on the
average unused portion of the Company’s revolving line of credit. Also, the Company’s interest income on its daily cash
balances held at its lender, CIT Group/Commercial Services, Inc. (“CIT”), was $40,000 lower during fiscal year 2014 than
in fiscal year 2013 due to lower average cash balances during the current year.

Income Tax Expense: The Company’s provision for income taxes increased to 38.3% during fiscal year 2014 from
36.3% in fiscal year 2013. The increase in the effective tax rate is primarily due to a decrease in the current year in the
amount of certain expenses that are deductible for tax purposes but not book purposes, as well as a decrease in
California Enterprise Zone wage credits.

Inflation: The Company has endeavored to increase its prices to offset inflationary increases in its raw materials
and other costs, but there can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in maintaining such price increases
or in effecting such price increases in a manner that will provide a timely match to the cost increases in the future.

Known Trends and Uncertainties

The Company’s financial results are closely tied to sales to the Company’s top two customers, which
represented approximately 60% of the Company’s gross sales in fiscal year 2014. A significant downturn experienced
by any or all of these customers could lead to pressure on the Company’s revenues. At times, the Company has also
faced higher raw material costs, primarily cotton, as well as increases in labor, transportation and currency costs
associated with the Company’s sourcing activities in China. Increases in these costs could adversely affect the
profitability of the Company if it cannot pass the cost increases along to its customers in the form of price increases or if
the timing of price increases does not closely match the cost increases, or if the Company cannot further reduce its
dependence on cotton. For additional discussion of trends, uncertainties and other factors that could impact the
Company’s operating results, see “Risk Factors” in Item 1A.

Financial Position, Liquidity and Capital Resources

Net cash provided by operating activities decreased from $9.1 million for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2013
to $3.6 million for the fiscal year ended March 30, 2014. In the current year, the Company experienced a greater
decrease in accounts payable and a greater increase in inventory balances, which was offset by a lesser increase in
accounts receivable.

Net cash used in investing activities was $161,000 in fiscal year 2014 compared with $1.1 million in the prior
year. The decrease in cash used in investing activities in the current year was primarily associated with lower capitalized
costs of the Company’s internally developed intangible assets.

Net cash used in financing activities decreased from $7.9 million to $3.3 million in the current year as
compared with the prior year. Cash used for the payment of dividends was $4.5 lower in the current year, primarily
associated with the payment of a special cash dividend during the prior year of $0.50 per share.

From April 1, 2013 to March 30, 2014, the Company used the bulk of its net cash provided by operating

activities for the payment of dividends.

The Company’s future performance is, to a certain extent, subject to general economic, financial, competitive,
legislative, regulatory and other factors beyond its control. Based upon the current level of operations, the Company
believes that its cash flow from operations and availability on its revolving line of credit will be adequate to meet its
liquidity needs.

The Company’s credit facility at March 30, 2014 consisted of a revolving line of credit under a financing
agreement with CIT of up to $26.0 million, which includes a $1.5 million sub-limit for letters of credit, bearing interest at
the rate of prime minus 0.50% or LIBOR plus 2.00%. The financing agreement matures on July 11, 2016 and is secured
by a first lien on all assets of the Company. At March 30, 2014, the Company had elected to pay interest on balances
owed under the revolving line of credit, if any, under the LIBOR option. The financing agreement also provides for the
payment by CIT to the Company of interest at the rate of prime minus 2.00%, which was 1.25% at March 30, 2014, on
daily negative balances held at CIT.

Under the financing agreement, a monthly fee is assessed based on 0.125% of the average unused portion of
the $26.0 million revolving line of credit, less any outstanding letters of credit (the “Commitment Fee”). The
Commitment Fee amounted to $41,000 and $64,000 during fiscal years 2014 and 2013, respectively. At March 30, 2014,
there was no balance owed on the revolving line of credit, there was no letter of credit outstanding and the Company
had $24.7 million available under the revolving line of credit based on its eligible accounts receivable and inventory
balances.

The financing agreement contains usual and customary covenants for agreements of that type, including
limitations on other indebtedness, liens, transfers of assets, investments and acquisitions, merger or consolidation
transactions, transactions with affiliates, and changes in or amendments to the organizational documents for the
Company and its subsidiaries. The Company believes it was in compliance with these covenants as of May 30, 2014.

To reduce its exposure to credit losses, the Company assigns the majority of its trade accounts receivable to
CIT pursuant to factoring agreements, which have expiration dates that are coterminous with that of the financing
agreement described above. Under the terms of the factoring agreements, CIT remits customer payments to the
Company as such payments are received by CIT.

CIT bears credit losses with respect to assigned accounts receivable from approved shipments, while the
Company bears the responsibility for adjustments from customers related to returns, allowances, claims and discounts.
CIT may at any time terminate or limit its approval of shipments to a particular customer. If such a termination or
limitation were to occur, the Company would either assume the credit risk for shipments to the customer after the date
of such termination or limitation or cease shipments to the customer. Factoring fees, which are included in marketing
and administrative expenses in the accompanying consolidated statements of income, were $461,000 and $455,000
during fiscal years 2014 and 2013, respectively. There were no advances on the factoring agreements at either March
30, 2014 or March 31, 2013.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The Company prepares its financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in
the United States of America (“GAAP”) as promulgated by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”), the
Securities Act, the Exchange Act and the regulations thereunder as administered by the SEC. References herein to GAAP
are to topics within the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (the “FASB ASC”), which the FASB periodically revises
through the issuance of an Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) and which has been established by the FASB as the
authoritative source for GAAP recognized by the FASB to be applied by nongovernmental entities.

Use of Estimates: The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to
make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent
assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated balance sheets and the reported amounts of revenues and
expenses during the reporting period. The listing below, while not inclusive of all of the Company's accounting policies,
sets forth those accounting policies which the Company's management believes embody the most significant
judgments due to the uncertainties affecting their application and the likelihood that materially different amounts
would be reported under different conditions or using different assumptions.

Royalty Payments: The Company has entered into agreements that provide for royalty payments based on a
percentage of sales with certain minimum guaranteed amounts. These royalty amounts are accrued based upon
historical sales rates adjusted for current sales trends by customers. Royalty expense is included in cost of sales and
amounted to $7.5 million and $6.8 million for fiscal years 2014 and 2013, respectively.

Revenue Recognition: Sales are recorded when goods are shipped to customers and are reported net of
allowances for estimated returns and allowances in the consolidated statements of income. Allowances for returns are
estimated based on historical rates. Allowances for returns, advertising allowances, warehouse allowances, placement
fees and volume rebates are recorded commensurate with sales activity or using the straight-line method, as
appropriate, and the cost of such allowances is netted against sales in reporting the results of operations. Shipping and
handling costs, net of amounts reimbursed by customers, are not material and are included in net sales.

appropriate to the circumstances for each arrangement. When a customer requests deductions, the allowances are
reduced to reflect such payments or credits issued against the customer’s account balance. The Company analyzes the
components of the allowances for customer deductions monthly and adjusts the allowances to the appropriate levels.
The timing of the customer-initiated funding requests for advertising support can cause the net balance in the
allowance account to fluctuate from period to period. The timing of such funding requests should have a minimal
impact on the consolidated statements of income since such costs are accrued commensurate with sales activity or
using the straight-line method, as appropriate.

To reduce its exposure to credit losses, the Company assigns the majority of its receivables under factoring
agreements with CIT. In the event a factored receivable becomes uncollectible due to creditworthiness, CIT bears the
risk of loss. The Company’s management must make estimates of the uncollectiblity of its non-factored accounts
receivable when evaluating the adequacy of its allowance for doubtful accounts, which it accomplishes by specifically
analyzing accounts receivable, historical bad debts, customer concentrations, customer creditworthiness, current
economic trends and changes in its customers’ payment terms.

Inventory Valuation: The preparation of the Company's financial statements requires careful determination of
the appropriate dollar amount of the Company's inventory balances. Such amount is presented as a current asset in the
Company's consolidated balance sheets and is a direct determinant of cost of goods sold in the consolidated
statements of income and, therefore, has a significant impact on the amount of net income reported in the accounting
periods. The basis of accounting for inventories is cost, which includes the direct supplier acquisition cost, duties, taxes
and freight, and the indirect costs to design, develop, source and store the product until it is sold. Once cost has been
determined, the Company’s inventory is then stated at the lower of cost or market, with cost determined using the first-
in, first-out ("FIFO") method, which assumes that inventory quantities are sold in the order in which they are acquired.

The determination of the indirect charges and their allocation to the Company's finished goods inventories is
complex and requires significant management judgment and estimates. If management made different judgments or
utilized different estimates, then differences would result in the valuation of the Company's inventories and in the
amount and timing of the Company's cost of goods sold and resulting net income for the reporting period.

On a periodic basis, management reviews its inventory quantities on hand for obsolescence, physical
deterioration, changes in price levels and the existence of quantities on hand which may not reasonably be expected to
be sold within the Company’s normal operating cycle. To the extent that any of these conditions is believed to exist or
the market value of the inventory expected to be realized in the ordinary course of business is otherwise no longer as
great as its carrying value, an allowance against the inventory value is established. To the extent that this allowance is
established or increased during an accounting period, an expense is recorded in cost of goods sold in the Company's
consolidated statements of income. Only when inventory for which an allowance has been established is later sold or is
otherwise disposed is the allowance reduced accordingly. Significant management judgment is required in
determining the amount and adequacy of this allowance. In the event that actual results differ from management's
estimates or these estimates and judgments are revised in future periods, the Company may not fully realize the
carrying value of its inventory or may need to establish additional allowances, either of which could materially impact
the Company's financial position and results of operations.

Depreciation and Amortization: The Company’s consolidated balance sheets reflect property, plant and
equipment, and certain intangible assets at cost less accumulated depreciation or amortization. The Company
capitalizes additions and improvements and expenses maintenance and repairs as incurred. Depreciation and
amortization are computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, which are three
to eight years for property, plant and equipment, and one to twenty years for intangible assets other than goodwill.
The Company amortizes improvements to its leased facilities over the term of the lease or the estimated useful life of
the asset, whichever is shorter.

Valuation of Long-Lived Assets, Identifiable Intangible Assets and Goodwill: In addition to the depreciation and
amortization procedures set forth above, the Company reviews for impairment long-lived assets and certain
identifiable intangible assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of any
asset may not be recoverable. In the event of impairment, the asset is written down to its fair market value. Assets to be
disposed of, if any, are recorded at the lower of net book value or fair market value, less estimated costs to sell at the

date management commits to a plan of disposal, and are classified as assets held for sale on the consolidated balance
sheets.

The Company tests the carrying value of its goodwill annually on the first day of the Company’s fiscal year. An
additional impairment test is performed during the year whenever an event or change in circumstances suggest that
the fair value of the goodwill of either of the reporting units of the Company has more likely than not fallen below its
carrying value. The Company considers its wholly-owned subsidiaries, CCIP and Hamco, to each be a reporting unit of
the Company for goodwill impairment testing purposes.

Patent Costs: The Company incurs certain legal and related costs in connection with patent applications. The
Company capitalizes such costs to be amortized over the expected life of the patent to the extent that an economic
benefit is anticipated from the resulting patent or alternative future use is available to the Company. The Company also
capitalizes legal costs incurred in the defense of the Company’s patents when it is believed that the future economic
benefit of the patent will be maintained or increased and a successful defense is probable. Capitalized patent defense
costs are amortized over the remaining expected life of the related patent. The Company’s assessment of future
economic benefit or a successful defense of its patents involves considerable management judgment, and a different
conclusion or outcome of litigation could result in a material impairment charge up to the carrying value of these
assets.

Provision for Income Taxes: The Company’s provision for income taxes includes all currently payable federal,
state, local and foreign taxes that are based on the Company's taxable income and the change during the fiscal year in
net deferred income tax assets and liabilities. The Company provides for deferred income taxes based on the difference
between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates that will be in effect
when the differences are expected to reverse. The Company’s policy is to recognize the effect that a change in enacted
tax rates would have on net deferred income tax assets and liabilities in the period that the tax rates are changed. The
Company's provision for income taxes on continuing operations is based on effective tax rates of 38.3% and 36.3% in
fiscal years 2014 and 2013, respectively. These effective tax rates are the sum of the top U.S. statutory federal income
tax rate and a composite rate for state income taxes, net of federal tax benefit, in the various states in which the
Company operates.

Management evaluates items of income, deductions and credits reported on the Company’s various federal
and state income tax returns filed and recognizes the effect of positions taken on those income tax returns only if those
positions are more likely than not to be sustained. Recognized income tax positions are measured at the largest
amount that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized. Changes in recognition or measurement are reflected
in the period in which the change in judgment occurs. Based on its recent evaluation, the Company has concluded that
there are no significant uncertain tax positions requiring recognition in the Company’s consolidated financial
statements. The Company’s policy is to accrue interest expense and penalties as appropriate on any estimated
unrecognized tax benefits as a charge to interest expense in the Company’s consolidated statements of income.

Recently-Issued Accounting Standards

On May 28, 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which will replace
most existing revenue guidance in GAAP when it becomes effective for the first annual fiscal period beginning after
December 15, 2016. Early adoption is not permitted. The Company has evaluated this ASU and has determined that its
adoption on April 3, 2017 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial
statements. The Company has also determined that all other ASUs issued through May 30, 2014 which were in effect as
of that date, or which will become effective at some future date, are not expected to have a material impact on the
Company’s consolidated financial statements.

ITEM 9A. Controls and Procedures

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the
reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time
period specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls
and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports filed under the Exchange
Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial
Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. As of the end of the period covered by
this report, the Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s
management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and
operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures. Based upon and as of the date of that evaluation, the
Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures
are effective.

Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

The Company’s management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over
financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) for the Company.
With the participation of the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, management conducted an
evaluation of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting based on the framework and the criteria
established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework, issued in 1992 by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations
of the Treadway Commission. Based on this evaluation, management has concluded that internal control over financial
reporting was effective as of March 30, 2014.

The Company’s internal control system was designed to provide reasonable assurance to the Company’s
management and Board of Directors regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation and fair
presentation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP. All internal control systems, no matter how well
designed, have inherent limitations. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only a
reasonable, rather than absolute, assurance that the Company’s financial statements are free of any material
misstatement, whether caused by error or fraud.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

The Company’s management, with the participation of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief
Financial Officer, conducted an evaluation of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as required by
Rule 13a-15(d) under the Exchange Act and, in connection with such evaluation, determined that no changes occurred
during the Company’s fourth fiscal quarter ended March 30, 2014 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely
to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

The Board of Directors and Shareholders
Crown Crafts, Inc.:

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Crown Crafts, Inc. and subsidiaries as of March 30,
2014 and March 31, 2013, and the related consolidated statements of income, changes in shareholders’ equity, and
cash flows for the years then ended. In connection with our audits of the consolidated financial statements, we also
have audited financial statement Schedule II included in Item 15. These consolidated financial statements and financial
statement schedule are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion
on these consolidated financial statements and financial statement schedule based on our audits.

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

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the
financial position of Crown Crafts, Inc. and subsidiaries as of March 30, 2014 and March 31, 2013, and the results of their
operations and their cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting
principles. Also, in our opinion, the related financial statement schedule, when considered in relation to the basic
consolidated financial statements taken as a whole, presents fairly, in all material respects, the information set forth
therein.

Crown Crafts, Inc. and Subsidiaries
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
Fiscal Years Ended March 30, 2014 and March 31, 2013

Note 1 – Description of Business

Crown Crafts, Inc. (the “Company”) operates indirectly through its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Hamco, Inc.
(“Hamco”) and Crown Crafts Infant Products, Inc. (“CCIP”), in the infant and toddler products segment within the
consumer products industry. The infant and toddler products segment consists of infant and toddler bedding, bibs, soft
bath products, disposable products and accessories. Sales of the Company’s products are generally made directly to
retailers, which are primarily mass merchants, mid-tier retailers, juvenile specialty stores, value channel stores, grocery
and drug stores, restaurants, internet accounts and wholesale clubs. The Company’s products are manufactured
primarily in Asia and marketed under a variety of Company-owned trademarks, under trademarks licensed from others
and as private label goods.

Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation: The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the
Company and have been prepared pursuant to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”)
as promulgated by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”), the Securities Act, the Exchange Act and the
regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). All significant intercompany balances and transactions
have been eliminated in consolidation. References herein to GAAP are to topics within the FASB Accounting Standards
Codification (the “FASB ASC”), which the FASB periodically revises through the issuance of an Accounting Standards
Update (“ASU”) and which has been established by the FASB as the authoritative source for GAAP recognized by the
FASB to be applied by nongovernmental entities.

Reclassifications: The Company has reclassified certain prior year information to conform to the amounts
presented in the current year. None of the changes impact the Company’s previously reported financial position or
results of operations.

Fiscal Year: The Company's fiscal year ends on the Sunday nearest to or on March 31. References herein to
“fiscal year 2014” or “2014”, and “fiscal year 2013” or “2013” represent the 52-week periods ended March 30, 2014 and
March 31, 2013, respectively.

Use of Estimates: The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to
make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent
assets and liabilities as of the date of the consolidated balance sheets and the reported amounts of revenues and
expenses during the periods presented on the consolidated statements of income and cash flows. Significant estimates
are made with respect to the allowances related to accounts receivable for customer deductions for returns, allowances
and disputes. The Company also has a certain amount of discontinued finished goods which necessitates the
establishment of inventory reserves that are highly subjective. Actual results could differ materially from those
estimates.

Cash and Cash Equivalents: The Company considers all highly-liquid investments purchased with original
maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The Company’s credit facility consists of a revolving line of
credit under a financing agreement with The CIT Group/Commercial Services, Inc. (“CIT”). The Company classifies a
negative balance outstanding under this revolving line of credit as cash, as these amounts are legally owed to the
Company and are available to be drawn upon by the Company daily.

Financial Instruments: For short-term instruments such as cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and

accounts payable, the Company uses carrying value as a reasonable estimate of fair value.

Royalty Payments: The Company has entered into agreements that provide for royalty payments based on a
percentage of sales with certain minimum guaranteed amounts. These royalties are accrued based upon historical sales
rates adjusted for current sales trends by customers. Royalty expense is included in cost of products sold and amounted
to $7.5 million and $6.8 million for fiscal years 2014 and 2013, respectively.

F-6

Advertising Costs: The Company’s advertising costs are primarily associated with cooperative advertising
arrangements with certain of the Company’s customers and are recognized using the straight-line method based
upon aggregate annual estimated amounts for these customers, with periodic adjustments to the actual amounts of
authorized agreements. Advertising expense is included in other marketing and administrative expenses in the
accompanying consolidated statements of income and amounted to $747,000 and $790,000 for fiscal years 2014 and
2013, respectively.

Depreciation and Amortization: The accompanying consolidated balance sheets reflect property, plant and
equipment, and certain intangible assets at cost less accumulated depreciation or amortization. The Company
capitalizes additions and improvements and expenses maintenance and repairs as incurred. Depreciation and
amortization are computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, which are three
to eight years for property, plant and equipment, and one to twenty years for intangible assets other than goodwill.
The Company amortizes improvements to its leased facilities over the term of the lease or the estimated useful life of
the asset, whichever is shorter.

Valuation of Long-Lived Assets and Identifiable Intangible Assets: In addition to the depreciation and
amortization procedures set forth above, the Company reviews for impairment long-lived assets and certain
identifiable intangible assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of any
asset may not be recoverable. In the event of impairment, the asset is written down to its fair market value.

Patent Costs: The Company incurs certain legal and related costs in connection with patent applications. The
Company capitalizes such costs to be amortized over the expected life of the patent to the extent that an economic
benefit is anticipated from the resulting patent or alternative future use is available to the Company. The Company also
capitalizes legal costs incurred in the defense of the Company’s patents when it is believed that the future economic
benefit of the patent will be maintained or increased and a successful defense is probable. Capitalized patent defense
costs are amortized over the remaining expected life of the related patent. The Company’s assessment of future
economic benefit or a successful defense of its patents involves considerable management judgment, and an
unfavorable outcome of litigation could result in a material impairment charge up to the carrying value of these assets.

Segments and Related Information: The Company operates primarily in one principal segment, infant and
toddler products. These products consist of infant and toddler bedding, bibs, soft bath products, disposable products

Inventory Valuation: The preparation of the Company's financial statements requires careful determination of
the appropriate dollar amount of the Company's inventory balances. Such amount is presented as a current asset in the
accompanying consolidated balance sheets and is a direct determinant of cost of products sold in the accompanying
consolidated statements of income and, therefore, has a significant impact on the amount of net income in the
reported accounting periods. The basis of accounting for inventories is cost, which includes the direct supplier
acquisition cost, duties, taxes and freight, and the indirect costs to design, develop, source and store the product until it
is sold. Once cost has been determined, the Company’s inventory is then stated at the lower of cost or market, with cost
determined using the first-in, first-out ("FIFO") method, which assumes that inventory quantities are sold in the order in
which they are acquired.

F-7

Revenue Recognition: Sales are recorded when goods are shipped to customers and are reported net of
allowances for estimated returns and allowances in the accompanying consolidated statements of income. Allowances
for returns are estimated based on historical rates. Allowances for returns, cooperative advertising allowances,
warehouse allowances, placement fees and volume rebates are recorded commensurate with sales activity or using the
straight-line method, as appropriate, and the cost of such allowances is netted against sales in reporting the results of
operations. Shipping and handling costs, net of amounts reimbursed by customers, are not material and are included in
net sales.

Allowances Against Accounts Receivable: The Company’s allowances against accounts receivable are primarily
contractually agreed-upon deductions for items such as cooperative advertising and warehouse allowances, placement
fees and volume rebates. These deductions are recorded throughout the year commensurate with sales activity or
using the straight-line method, as appropriate. Funding of the majority of the Company’s allowances occurs on a per-
invoice basis. The allowances for customer deductions, which are netted against accounts receivable in the
accompanying consolidated balance sheets, consist of agreed-upon cooperative advertising support, placement fees,
markdowns and warehouse and other allowances. All such allowances are recorded as direct offsets to sales, and such
costs are accrued commensurate with sales activities or as a straight-line amortization charge of an agreed-upon fixed
amount, as appropriate to the circumstances for each arrangement. When a customer requests deductions, the
allowances are reduced to reflect such payments or credits issued against the customer’s account balance. The
Company analyzes the components of the allowances for customer deductions monthly and adjusts the allowances to
the appropriate levels. The timing of the funding requests for advertising support can cause the net balance in the
allowance account to fluctuate from period to period. The timing of such funding requests should have a minimal
impact on the consolidated statements of income since such costs are accrued commensurate with sales activity or
using the straight-line method, as appropriate.

To reduce its exposure to credit losses, the Company assigns the majority of its trade accounts receivable
under factoring agreements with CIT. In the event a factored receivable becomes uncollectible due to creditworthiness,
CIT bears the risk of loss. The Company’s management must make estimates of the uncollectiblity of its non-factored
accounts receivable, which it accomplishes by specifically analyzing accounts receivable, historical bad debts, customer
concentrations, customer creditworthiness, current economic trends and changes in its customers’ payment terms. The
Company’s accounts receivable at March 30, 2014 amounted to $21.7 million, net of allowances of $718,000. Of this
amount, $20.8 million was due from CIT under the factoring agreements, and an additional $337,000 was due from CIT
as a negative balance outstanding under the revolving line of credit. The combined amount of $21.1 million represents
the maximum loss that the Company could incur if CIT failed completely to perform its obligations under the factoring
agreements and the revolving line of credit.

F-8

Management evaluates items of income, deductions and credits reported on the Company’s various federal
and state income tax returns filed and recognizes the effect of positions taken on those income tax returns only if those
positions are more likely than not to be sustained. Recognized income tax positions are measured at the largest
amount that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized. Changes in recognition or measurement are reflected
in the period in which the change in judgment occurs. Based on its recent evaluation, the Company has concluded that
there are no significant uncertain tax positions requiring recognition in the accompanying consolidated financial
statements. The Company’s policy is to accrue interest expense and penalties as appropriate on any estimated
unrecognized tax benefits as a charge to interest expense in the Company’s consolidated statements of income.

The Company files income tax returns in the many jurisdictions in which it operates, including the U.S., several
U.S. states and the People’s Republic of China. The statute of limitations varies by jurisdiction; tax years open to federal
or state general examination or other adjustment as of March 30, 2014 were the tax years ended April 3, 2011, April 1,
2012, March 31, 2013 and March 30, 2014, as well as the tax year ended March 28, 2010 for several states.

Earnings Per Share: The Company calculates basic earnings per share by using a weighted average of the
number of shares outstanding during the reporting periods. Diluted shares outstanding are calculated in accordance
with the treasury stock method, which assumes that the proceeds from the exercise of all exercisable options would be
used to repurchase shares at market value. The net number of shares issued after the exercise proceeds are exhausted
represents the potentially dilutive effect of the exercisable options, which are added to basic shares to arrive at diluted
shares.

Recently-Issued Accounting Standards: On May 28, 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from
Contracts with Customers, which will replace most existing revenue guidance in GAAP when it becomes effective on the
first day of the fiscal year beginning after December 15, 2016. Early adoption is not permitted. The Company has
evaluated this ASU and has determined that its adoption on April 3, 2017 is not expected to have a material impact on
the Company’s consolidated financial statements. The Company has also determined that all other ASUs issued which
were in effect, or which will become effective at some future date, are not expected to have a material impact on the
Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Note 3 - Financing Arrangements

Factoring Agreements: The Company assigns the majority of its trade accounts receivable to CIT pursuant to
factoring agreements, which have expiration dates that are coterminous with that of the financing agreement
described above. Under the terms of the factoring agreements, CIT remits customer payments to the Company as such
payments are received by CIT.

Credit Facility: The Company’s credit facility at March 30, 2014 consisted of a revolving line of credit under a
financing agreement with CIT of up to $26.0 million, which includes a $1.5 million sub-limit for letters of credit, bearing
interest at the rate of prime minus 0.50% or LIBOR plus 2.00%. The financing agreement matures on July 11, 2016 and is
secured by a first lien on all assets of the Company. At March 30, 2014, the Company had elected to pay interest on
balances owed under the revolving line of credit, if any, under the LIBOR option. The financing agreement also provides
for the payment by CIT to the Company of interest at the rate of prime minus 2.00%, which was 1.25% at March 30,
2014, on daily negative balances held at CIT.

F-9

there was no balance owed on the revolving line of credit, there was no letter of credit outstanding and the Company
had $24.7 million available under the revolving line of credit based on its eligible accounts receivable and inventory
balances.

Note 4 – Goodwill, Customer Relationships and Other Intangible Assets

Goodwill: Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net identifiable assets
acquired by the Company in business combinations. The Company considers its wholly-owned subsidiaries, CCIP and
Hamco, to each be a reporting unit of the Company for the purpose of presenting and testing for the impairment of
goodwill. The goodwill of the reporting units of the Company as of March 30, 2014 and March 31, 2013 amounted to
$24.0 million and is reported in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets net of accumulated impairment
charges of $22.9 million, for a net reported balance of $1.1 million.

The Company tests the fair value of the goodwill, if any, within its reporting units annually as of the first day of
the Company’s fiscal year. An additional interim impairment test must be performed during the year whenever an
event or change in circumstances occurs that suggest that the fair value of the goodwill of either of the reporting units
of the Company has more likely than not (defined as having a likelihood of greater than 50%) fallen below its carrying
value. The annual or interim impairment test is performed by first assessing qualitative factors to determine whether it
is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. If such qualitative factors so
indicate, then the impairment test is continued in a two-step approach. The first step is the estimation of the fair value
of each reporting unit. If step one indicates that the fair value of the reporting unit exceeds its carrying value, then a
potential impairment exists, and the second step is then performed to measure the amount of an impairment charge, if
any. In the second step, these estimated fair values are used as the hypothetical purchase price for the reporting units,
and an allocation of such hypothetical purchase price is made to the identifiable tangible and intangible assets and
assigned liabilities of the reporting units. The impairment charge is calculated as the amount, if any, by which the
carrying value of the goodwill exceeds the implied amount of goodwill that results from this hypothetical purchase
price allocation. The annual impairment test of the fair value of the goodwill of the reporting units of the Company was
performed as of April 1, 2013 and the Company concluded that the fair value of the goodwill of the Company’s
reporting units substantially exceeded their carrying values as of that date.

F-10

Other Intangible Assets: Other intangible assets as of March 30, 2014 consisted primarily of the capitalized
costs of acquired businesses, other than tangible assets, goodwill and assumed liabilities. The carrying amount and
accumulated amortization of the Company’s other intangible assets as of March 30, 2014 and March 31, 2013, the

Note 5 – Churchill Property

During the fiscal year 2008, the operations of Churchill Weavers, Inc. (“Churchill”), at the time a wholly-owned
subsidiary of the Company, ceased and all employees were terminated. The Company had actively marketed Churchill’s
land and building since that time, and the property was sold in March 2013. The Company recorded impairment
charges associated with the property during fiscal years 2009, 2010 and 2011 as the Company made successive
determinations that the fair value of the property had fallen below its carrying value. Through April 1, 2012, the
Company had recorded the Churchill property at fair value, less an estimate of the costs of sale, had classified the
property as assets held for sale in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets and had classified the costs to maintain
the property and the impairment charges as discontinued operations in the consolidated statements of income.
Effective as of April 2, 2012, accounting guidelines required the Company to record the costs associated with the
property within continuing operations in the accompanying consolidated statements of income for all periods
presented.

The amounts recorded upon the sale of the Churchill property are set forth below (in thousands):

Note 6 – Retirement Plan

The Company sponsors a defined contribution retirement savings plan with a cash or deferred arrangement
(the “401(k) Plan”), as provided by Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code (“Code”). The 401(k) Plan covers
substantially all employees, who may elect to contribute a portion of their compensation to the 401(k) Plan, subject to
maximum amounts and percentages as prescribed in the Code. Each calendar year, the Company’s Board of Directors
(the “Board”) determines the portion, if any, of employee contributions that will be matched by the Company. For
calendar years 2013 and 2012, the employer matching contributions represented an amount equal to 100% of the first
2% of employee contributions and 50% of the next 1% of employee contributions to the 401(k) Plan. If an employee
separates from the Company prior to the full vesting of the funds in their account that represent the matching
employer portion of their account, then the unvested portion of the matching employer portion of their account is
forfeited when they take a distribution of their account. The Company utilizes such forfeitures as an offset to the
aggregate matching contributions. The Company's matching contribution to the 401(k) Plan, net of the utilization of
forfeitures, was $153,000 and $151,000 for fiscal years 2014 and 2013, respectively.

In assessing the probability that the Company’s deferred tax assets will be realized, management of the
Company has considered whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not
be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of taxable income during
the future periods in which the temporary differences giving rise to the deferred tax assets will become deductible. The
Company has also considered the scheduled inclusion into taxable income in future periods of the temporary
differences giving rise to the Company’s deferred tax liabilities. The valuation allowance as of March 30, 2014 and
March 31, 2013 was related to state net operating loss carryforwards that the Company does not expect to be realized.
Based upon the Company’s expectations of the generation of sufficient taxable income during future periods, the
Company believes that it is more likely than not that the Company will realize its deferred tax assets, net of the
valuation allowance and the deferred tax liabilities.

Management evaluates items of income, deductions and credits reported on the Company’s various federal
and state income tax returns filed, and recognizes the effect of positions taken on those income tax returns only if
those positions are more likely than not to be sustained. Recognized income tax positions are measured at the largest
amount that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized. Changes in recognition or measurement are reflected
in the period in which the change in judgment occurs. Based on its recent evaluation, the Company has concluded that
there are no significant uncertain tax positions requiring recognition in the Company’s consolidated financial
statements. The Company’s policy is to accrue interest expense and penalties as appropriate on any estimated
unrecognized tax benefits as a charge to interest expense in the Company’s consolidated statements of income.

The Company's provision for income taxes on continuing operations is based upon effective tax rates of 38.3%
and 36.3% in fiscal years 2014 and 2013, respectively. These effective tax rates are the sum of the top U.S. statutory
federal income tax rate and a composite rate for state income taxes, net of federal tax benefit, in the various states in
which the Company operates.

Note 9 – Stock-based Compensation

The stockholders of the Company approved the 2006 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), which is an
incentive stock plan that is intended to attract and retain directors, officers and employees of the Company and to
motivate those individuals to achieve the overall goal of increasing stockholder value. The Plan was adopted to create a
mechanism for long-term, equity-based incentive compensation for its non-employee directors and certain employees.
Awards granted under the Plan may be in the form of qualified or non-qualified stock options, restricted stock, stock
appreciation rights, long-term incentive compensation units consisting of a combination of cash and shares of the
Company’s common stock, or any combination thereof within the limitations set forth in the Plan. The Plan is
administered by the Compensation Committee of the Board, which selects eligible employees and non-employee
directors to participate in the Plan and determines the type, amount, duration and other terms of such awards. At
March 30, 2014, 385,702 shares of the Company’s common stock were available for future issuance under the Plan.

Stock-based compensation

is calculated according to FASB ASC Topic 718, Compensation – Stock
Compensation, which requires stock-based compensation to be accounted for using a fair-value-based measurement.
The Company recorded $604,000 and $652,000 of stock-based compensation during fiscal years 2014 and 2013,
respectively. The Company records the compensation expense associated with stock-based awards granted to
individuals in the same expense classifications as the cash compensation paid to those same individuals. No stock-
based compensation costs were capitalized as part of the cost of an asset as of March 30, 2014.

The total intrinsic value of the stock options exercised during fiscal years 2014 and 2013 was $126,000 and $1.2
million, respectively. As of March 30, 2014, the intrinsic value of the outstanding and exercisable stock options was
$383,000 and $94,000, respectively.

The Company received no cash from the exercise of stock options during fiscal year 2014 and received cash in
the amount of $98,000 from the exercise of stock options during fiscal year 2013. Upon the exercise of stock options,
participants may choose to surrender to the Company those shares from the option exercise necessary to satisfy the
exercise amount and their income tax withholding obligations that arise from the option exercise. The effect on the

F-14

cash flow of the Company from these “cashless” option exercises is that the Company remits cash on behalf of the
participant to satisfy his or her income tax withholding obligations. The Company used cash of $49,000 and $437,000 to
remit the required income tax withholding amounts from “cashless” option exercises during fiscal years 2014 and 2013,
respectively. Thus, the Company’s net outflow of cash upon the exercise of stock options was $49,000 and $339,000
during fiscal years 2014 and 2013, respectively.

To determine the estimated fair value of stock options granted, the Company uses the Black-Scholes-Merton
valuation formula, which is a closed-form model that uses an equation to estimate fair value. The following table sets
forth the assumptions used to determine that fair value, and the resulting grant-date fair value per option, of the non-
qualified stock options which were awarded to certain employees during fiscal years 2014 and 2013, which options vest

These shares vest over a two-year period, assuming continued service. The fair value of non-vested stock
granted to the Company’s non-employee directors was based on the closing price of the Company’s common stock on
the date of each grant.

Non-vested Stock Granted to Employees: During the three-month period ended June 27, 2010, the Board
awarded 345,000 shares of non-vested stock to certain employees in a series of grants, each of which will vest only if (i)
the closing price of the Company’s common stock is at or above certain target levels for any ten trading days out of any
period of 30 consecutive trading days and (ii) the respective employees remain employed through July 29, 2015. The
Company, with the assistance of an independent third party, determined that the aggregate grant date fair value of the
awards amounted to $1.2 million.

On November 5, 2013 and November 30, 2012, the Board approved amendments to the grant subject to the
$5.00 per share closing price condition that had been awarded to E. Randall Chestnut, Chairman, Chief Executive Officer
and President. With the closing price condition having been met for this award, the original grant of 75,000 shares was
amended to provide for the immediate vesting of 13,000 shares on November 5, 2013 and 62,000 shares on November
30, 2012. The vesting of these awards was accelerated in order to preserve the deductibility of the associated
compensation expense by the Company for income tax purposes. As a result of the acceleration of the vesting, the
Company recognized the remaining compensation expense associated with the 13,000 and 62,000 shares vested of
$14,000 and $99,000, respectively, during the three-month periods ended December 29, 2013 and December 30, 2012,
respectively. These amounts would otherwise have been recognized by the Company ratably through July 29, 2015. To
satisfy the income tax withholding obligations that arose from the vesting of the shares, Mr. Chestnut surrendered to
the Company 6,234 shares on November 5, 2013 and 26,319 shares on November 30, 2012, and the Company paid
$47,000 and $153,000, respectively, to the appropriate taxing authorities on his behalf at such times.

Performance Bonus Plan: In July 2012, the Company implemented a performance bonus plan for certain
executive officers that provided for awards of cash or shares of common stock, or a combination thereof, in the
discretion of the Compensation Committee of the Board, in the event that the aggregate average market value of the
common stock during the relevant fiscal year, plus the amount of cash dividends paid in respect of the common stock
F-16

during such period, increases. In September 2013, the performance bonus plan was amended to eliminate the
Compensation Committee’s discretion to award cash, unless and to the extent that insufficient shares of common stock
were available for issuance from the Company’s 2006 Omnibus Incentive Plan.

In connection with this performance bonus plan, during fiscal year 2014, the Company, in respect of fiscal year
2013, granted to certain executive officers 17,048 shares of common stock with a value of $93,000 and a cash award of
$258,000. Of the total compensation expense of $351,000, $196,000 and $155,000 were recognized during fiscal years
2014 and 2013, respectively. Although there are restrictions as to the subsequent transfer of the shares of stock
awarded, ownership in the stock was vested upon issuance. To satisfy the income tax withholding obligations that
arose from the issuance of the shares, the employees surrendered 8,549 shares to the Company and the Company paid
$54,000 to the appropriate taxing authorities on their behalf.

The performance bonus plan, as amended in September 2013, provides that any shares of common stock that
may be awarded in the future will vest over a two-year service period. This revision to the performance bonus plan,
along with the requirement that awards now be made solely in shares of common stock, will provide that the
compensation expense associated with performance bonus plan awards will be recognized ratably over a three-year
period – the fiscal year in which the award is earned, plus the two-year vesting period. The Company recognized
compensation expense in the amount of $354,000 during fiscal year 2014 in respect of awards earned pursuant to the
performance bonus plan for fiscal year 2014.

For the fiscal year ended March 30, 2014, the Company recognized compensation expense associated with
non-vested stock grants, which is included in other marketing and administrative expenses in the accompanying
consolidated statements of income, as follows (in thousands):

As of March 30, 2014, total unrecognized compensation expense related to the Company’s non-vested stock
grants was $369,000, which will be recognized over the remaining portion of the respective vesting periods associated
with each block of grants, such grants having a weighted average vesting term of 1.26 years. The amount of future
compensation expense related to non-vested stock grants could be affected by any future non-vested stock grants and
by the separation from the Company of any individual who has unvested grants as of such individual’s separation date.

declared by the Board. Aggregate cash dividends of $0.32 and $0.74 per share, amounting to $3.2 million and $7.3
million, were declared during fiscal years 2014 and 2013, respectively. Cash dividends declared during 2013 included a
special cash dividend paid during the three-month period ended December 30, 2012 of $0.50 per share. The
Company’s financing agreement with CIT permits the payment by the Company of cash dividends on its common stock
without limitation, provided there is no default before or as a result of the payment of such dividends.

Stock Repurchases: The Company acquired treasury shares by way of the surrender to the Company from
several employees shares of common stock to satisfy the exercise price and income tax withholding obligations
relating to the exercise of stock options and the vesting of stock. In this manner, the Company acquired 65,000 treasury
shares during the fiscal year ended March 30, 2014 at a weighted-average market value of $7.07 per share and acquired
402,000 treasury shares during the fiscal year ended March 31, 2013 at a weighted-average market value of $5.71 per
share.

2019 and 2020, and $173,000 due in fiscal year 2021.

BreathableBaby, LLC (“BreathableBaby”) filed a complaint against the Company and CCIP on January 11, 2012
in the United States District Court for the District of Minnesota, alleging that CCIP’s mesh crib liner infringes
BreathableBaby’s patent rights relating to its air permeable infant bedding technology. The Company believes that it
has meritorious defenses to the claims asserted in the complaint, and the Company intends to defend itself vigorously
against all such claims. The Company and CCIP filed a motion for summary judgment of non-infringement on May 14,
2012. On July 25, 2012, the Court entered an order denying that motion without prejudice to refiling it at the close of
discovery. In doing so, the Court did not rule on the merits of the Company’s motion, but instead determined that
further discovery was required before a motion for summary judgment could be decided. Discovery accordingly
resumed; however, on August 6, 2013, upon becoming concerned that the costs of discovery and litigation were
quickly surpassing the amount in controversy, the Court ordered a temporary stay of all discovery.

CCIP was granted a patent in September 2013 related to its mesh crib liner by the United States Patent and
Trademark Office and has capitalized $58,000 of costs associated with applying for this patent. In addition, the
Company’s policy is to capitalize legal and other costs incurred in the defense of the Company’s patents when it is
believed that the future economic benefit of the patent will be maintained or increased and a successful defense is
probable. In this regard, as of March 30, 2014, CCIP has capitalized legal and other costs in the amount of $990,000
associated with its defense of the BreathableBaby complaint into the intangible asset related to the patent for its own

F-18

mesh crib liner. The Company’s is amortizing the patent application costs and the litigation costs associated with CCIP’s
mesh crib liner over the expected life of the patent. An unfavorable outcome of the Breathablebaby litigation could
result in an impairment charge of up to the $1.0 million carrying value of CCIP’s mesh crib liner.

In addition to the foregoing civil complaints, the Company is, from time to time, involved in various legal
proceedings relating to claims arising in the ordinary course of its business. Neither the Company nor any of its
subsidiaries is a party to any such legal proceeding the outcome of which, individually or in the aggregate, is expected
to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Note 13 – Subsequent Events

The Company has evaluated events that have occurred between March 30, 2014 and the date that the
accompanying financial statements were issued, and has determined that there are no material subsequent events that
require disclosure.
