Clarence  H. Smith, chairman, president and CEO, said, "Our written business was
slightly  better than our  expectations at the  beginning of the first quarter.
Higher  average  tickets  drove  the  sales  increase  as  our design staff were
involved  in more sales transactions.  We are experiencing some imported product
availability   issues   resulting  from  the  West  Coast  port  slowdown  which
contributed  to  our  written  business  exceeding  our  delivered sales for the
quarter.

Our  store in Rogers,  Arkansas, will open  this week and  our showroom in Waco,
Texas, should open in mid-May.  This expansion into two new markets for Havertys
and  the strengthening of our position in southeast Florida, with the opening in
Coconut  Creek  in  early  January  and  Ft. Lauderdale slated for July, provide
growth opportunities in the near and long term."
