Independent Auditors' Report
To the Profit Sharing Committee of the
Triangle Pacific Corp. Salaried Employees' Profit
Sharing Plan:
We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available for benefits
of the Triangle Pacific Corp. Salaried Employees' Profit Sharing Plan as of
December 31, 2000 and 1999, and the related statements of changes in net assets
available for benefits for the years then ended. These financial statements are
the responsibility of the Plan's management. Our responsibility is to express
an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted
in the United States of America. 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 financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the net assets available for benefits of the Triangle
Pacific Corp. Salaried Employees' Profit Sharing Plan as of December 31, 2000
and 1999, and the changes in net assets available for benefits for the years
then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States of America.
Our audits were performed for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic
financial statements taken as a whole. The supplemental schedule of assets held
for investment purposes is presented for the purpose of additional analysis and
is not a required part of the basic financial statements but is supplementary
information required by the Department of Labor's Rules and Regulations for
Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of
1974. The supplemental schedule has been subjected to the auditing procedures
applied in the audits of the basic financial statements and, in our opinion, is
fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the basic financial
statements taken as a whole.

TRIANGLE PACIFIC CORP.
SALARIED EMPLOYEES' PROFIT SHARING PLAN
Notes to Financial Statements
December 31, 2000 and 1999
(1) General Information
The Triangle Pacific Corp. Salaried Employees' Profit Sharing Plan (the
Plan) was established on January 5, 1976 by Triangle Pacific Corporation
(the Company). The Plan was amended and restated effective January 1, 1993,
to comply with applicable requirements of the Internal Revenue Code (IRC).
On July 22, 1998, Triangle Pacific Corp. was acquired by Armstrong World
Industries, Inc. (a subsidiary of Armstrong Holdings, Inc.). The Board of
Directors of Triangle Pacific Corp. intends to continue providing
retirement benefits through the Company's defined contribution plans.
(2) Description of the Plan
The following description of the Plan provides only general information.
Participants should refer to the Plan document for more detailed
information.
(a) General
The Plan is a defined contribution plan which provides retirement
benefits to the salaried employees of the Company who have worked
1,000 hours in a consecutive 12-month period, and have attained age
21. The participants are not required nor permitted to make any
contributions to the profit sharing portion of the Plan except for
transfers of balances from other qualified plans, but participants are
permitted to contribute up to 10% of their compensation to the 401(k)
portion of the Plan. The Plan is administered by Bruce Hardwood
Flooring, LLC, a subsidiary of Triangle Pacific Corporation, and
advised by the Company's Profit Sharing Committee (Committee), whose
members are appointed by the Board of Directors of the Company (the
Board).
(b) Contributions
Company contributions to the profit sharing portion of the Plan are
discretionary and are determined by the Board. Total contributions per
Plan year, including profit sharing and 401(k), to any one participant
cannot exceed the lesser of $30,000 or 25% of the participant's
compensation. A participant will not receive a Company profit sharing
contribution during a year in which the participant has a break in
service. Effective January 1, 1998, the Plan was amended and restated
(Amendment) to define the criteria of the Company contributions to the
401(k) portion. Company contributions to the 401(k) portion are
matching contributions that provide a 50% match of participant's tax
deferred contribution to the Plan up to 6% of the participants'
eligible compensation. Participants are fully vested in the current
value of their own contributions and earnings thereon, and become 100%
vested in Company contributions upon completion of five years of
service. Forfeitures resulting from non-vested employee termination
($54,023 in 2000 and $159,397 in 1999) are treated as a Company
contribution and serve to reduce Company contributions in the year
following the terminations.

Notes to Financial Statements
December 31, 2000 and 1999
(c) Payment of Benefits
Upon termination of employment, participants generally may elect to
receive the total value of their account attributable to their
contributions, as well as the vested value of their Company
contributions. Participants who are age 59 1/2 or over, or become
permanently and totally disabled are automatically 100% vested in the
value of Company contributions and related earnings credited to their
account. In the event that termination is caused by death, the
participant becomes 100% vested and the balance will be paid in full
to the beneficiary. Participants may also make hardship withdrawals
from their vested amounts, subject to provisions of the Plan document
and determination of eligibility by the plan administrator.
(d) Participant Accounts and Allocations
Allocations of Plan income are made to the participants based upon
their relative account balances in the Plan at the beginning of each
year. The annual Company contribution is allocated on a proportional
basis relative to each participant's compensation for the year, as
defined. Participants withdrawing from the Plan with a vested interest
may only receive their account balance in a lump-sum payment.
Participants are able to direct all contributions to their account in
10% increments to the various investment funds. The Magellan, Equity
Income, and the Overseas funds are classified as equity funds while
the Intermediate Bond and Retirement Money Market funds are classified
as fixed income funds. The Asset Manager Fund is considered to be a
mixture of both equity and fixed income funds.
. Armstrong Holdings, Inc. Common Stock - Effective April 1, 1999,
the Plan was amended to include Armstrong World Industries, Inc.
common stock as one of the investment options. On May 1, 2000,
Armstrong Holdings, Inc. acquired the stock of Armstrong World
Industries, Inc. An indirect holding in Armstrong World
Industries, Inc. makes up substantially all of the assets of
Armstrong Holdings, Inc. Armstrong Holdings, Inc. is publicly
traded on the New York Stock Exchange. On December 6, 2000,
Armstrong World Industries, Inc. filed a voluntary petition for
relief under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code in
Wilmington, DE in order to use the court-supervised
reorganization process to achieve a resolution of its asbestos
liability. Triangle Pacific Corp. was not included in the filing.
As of December 19, 2000, the Plan was amended to eliminate the
Armstrong Holdings, Inc. Common Stock fund as an investment
option effective with contributions made on or after December 27,
2000 and transfers processed on or after January 1, 2001.
. Fidelity Magellan Fund - The Fidelity Magellan Fund is a
diversified portfolio of common stocks of domestic and foreign
issuers. The portfolio seeks capital appreciation by investing in
growth stocks, value stocks or both.

Notes to Financial Statements
December 31, 2000 and 1999
. Fidelity Equity Income Fund - The Fidelity Equity Income Fund has
a primary objective of seeking reasonable income by investing 65%
of total assets in foreign and domestic income producing equity
securities, such as stocks, bonds and other debt securities. The
fund also seeks capital appreciation when consistent with its
primary objective.
. Fidelity Intermediate Bond Fund - The Fidelity Intermediate Bond
Fund has a primary objective of seeking high current income by
investing in U.S. dollar-dominated investment grade debt
securities with maturities between three to ten years. The Lehman
Brothers' Intermediate Government/Corporate Bond Index is used as
a guide in structuring the fund and selecting the investments.
. Fidelity Overseas Fund - The Fidelity Overseas Fund seeks long-
term growth of capital by primarily investing in the common stock
of foreign issuers.
. Fidelity Asset Manager Fund - The Fidelity Asset Manager Fund
strives for high total return with reduced risk over the long
term. The fund pursues this goal with diversified investments of
stocks, bonds and short-term and money market instruments, both
domestic and international, while maintaining a diversified mix
of securities.
. Fidelity Retirement Money Market Fund - The Fidelity Retirement
Money Market Fund seeks to earn a high level of current income
while maintaining a stable $1.00 share price by investing in
high-quality, short-term securities. These securities may
include, but are not limited to, high-quality short-term U.S.
dollar denominated money market securities, domestic and foreign
issuers.
(3) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
(a) Basis of Accounting
The accompanying financial statements are prepared on the accrual
basis of accounting.
(b) Investments
The investments of the Plan are stated at fair value, determined
primarily on the basis of closing market quotations. Investment
transactions are recorded by the trustee at current cost on the trade
date. Realized and unrealized gains (losses) on investments are based
on the fair value of the assets at the beginning of the Plan year or
at the time of purchase during the year.
(c) Administrative expenses
All administrative expenses, including audit fees, consulting fees,
recordkeeping fees and trustee fees, are paid by the Company with no
liability to the Plan ($20,885 and $22,447 in 2000 and 1999,
respectively).

(d) Payment of Benefits
Benefits are recorded upon distribution.
(e) Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires
management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported
amounts of assets, liabilities and changes therein, and disclosure of
contingent assets and liabilities. Actual results could differ from
those estimates.
(4) Units
Participant accounts are assigned investment fund unit/shares. The net
asset value per unit/share by fund/account for the 2000 and 1999 calendar
quarters ended is as follows:

(6) Tax Status of the Plan
The Internal Revenue Service has determined and informed the Company by a
letter dated January 3, 1995, that the Plan and related trust are designed
in accordance with applicable requirements of the IRC. The Plan has been
amended since receiving the determination letter. However, the Plan
administrator and the Plan's management believe that the Plan is designed
and is currently being operated in compliance with the applicable
requirements of the IRC.
(7) Plan Termination
Although the Company has not expressed an intent to terminate the Plan, in
the event of such a termination, the priority of distribution of assets is
in accordance with the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income
Security Act of 1974. Distribution of Plan assets will be as follows:
(a) in the event of partial termination of the Plan, distributions
shall be treated for participants affected by the termination in
the same manner as distributions for complete termination are
treated;
(b) in the event of complete termination of the Plan, the Committee
may instruct the Trustee to:
(i) continue to administer the Plan and distribute funds to
participants upon termination of employment until the Fund
is liquidated or
(ii) distribute the assets remaining in the Plan, after payment
of any expenses.
(8) Party-in-interest
Certain Plan investments are shares of common stock of Armstrong Holdings,
Inc. and shares of mutual funds managed by Fidelity Investments. Triangle
Pacific Corp. is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Armstrong World Industries,
Inc. Fidelity Management Trust Company is the Trustee as defined by the
Plan. Therefore, transactions involving these entities and funds qualify as
party-in-interest transactions.
