REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM


To the Retirement Committee of the
Culp, Inc. Employees’ Retirement Builder Plan
High Point, North Carolina

We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available for benefits of the Culp, Inc. Employees’ Retirement Builder Plan as of December 31, 2011 and 2010 and the related statements of changes in net assets available for benefits for the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010, and 2009.  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 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.  We were not engaged to perform an audit of the Plan’s internal control over financial reporting.  Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Plan’s internal control over financial reporting.  Accordingly, we express no such opinion.  An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, 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 Culp, Inc. Employees’ Retirement Builder Plan as of December 31, 2011 and 2010 and the changes in its net assets available for benefits for the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010, and 2009, 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 at end of year) at December 31, 2011 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.  This supplemental schedule is the responsibility of the Plan’s management.  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.

CULP, INC. EMPLOYEES’ RETIREMENT BUILDER PLAN
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009

 
NOTE A - DESCRIPTION OF PLAN

The following description of the Culp, Inc. Employees’ Retirement Builder Plan (the “Plan”) provides only general information.  Participants should refer to the summary plan description for a more complete description of the Plan’s provisions.

General

The Plan is a defined contribution plan covering all full-time employees of Culp, Inc. and its subsidiaries (the “Company”) who have three months of service and are at least 21 years of age.  Employees who elect to participate in the Plan may do so in the next available payroll period.  The Plan is subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (“ERISA”).

Contributions

Each year, participants may contribute compensation, as defined in the Plan document, subject to certain Internal Revenue Code (“IRC”) limitations.  Participants who have attained age 50 before the end of the Plan year are eligible to make catch-up contributions.  Participants may also contribute amounts representing distributions from other qualified defined benefit or defined contribution plans.  Participants direct the investment of their contributions into various investment options offered by the Plan.  The Plan currently offers various registered investment company funds, one common trust fund, a money market fund, and Culp, Inc. common stock as investment options for participants.  The Company makes matching contributions equal to 100% of the participant’s contribution up to the first 3% of annual compensation plus 50% of the next 2% of compensation contributed to the Plan which qualifies under safe harbor provisions.  An employee who is eligible to participate in the Plan, but does not either affirmatively elect to decline participation or designate a specified amount to be contributed to the Plan, is required to have their compensation reduced by 2%, which is in turn contributed into the Plan. Contributions are subject to certain limitations.

Additional profit sharing amounts may be contributed at the option of the Company.  No profit-sharing contributions were made during the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 or 2009.

Participant Accounts

Each participant’s account is credited with the participant’s contribution and an allocation of (a) the Company’s contributions and (b) Plan earnings.  Allocations are based on participant earnings or account balances, as defined.  The benefit to which a participant is entitled is the benefit that can be provided from the participant’s vested account.

Vesting

Participants are immediately vested in their 401(k) contributions, including the matching contributions from the Company and actual earnings thereon.

NOTE A - DESCRIPTION OF PLAN (Continued)

Participant Loans
 
Participant loans are not permitted by the Plan.
 
Payment of Benefits
 
On termination of service due to death, disability, retirement, or other reasons as defined by the Plan, participants receive a lump-sum distribution equal to the value of the participant’s vested interest in the Plan.

NOTE B - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Accounting
 
The financial statements of the Plan are prepared under the accrual basis of accounting in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
 
Investment contracts held by a defined contribution plan are required to be reported at fair value. However, contract value is the relevant measurement attributable for that portion of the net assets available for benefits of a defined contribution plan attributable to fully benefit-responsive investment contracts because contract value is the amount participants would receive if they were to initiate permitted transactions under the terms of the Plan.  The Statements of Net Assets Available for Benefits presents the fair value of the investment contract, as well as the adjustment of the fully benefit-responsive investment contract from fair value to contract value.  The Statement of Changes in Net Assets Available for Benefits is prepared on a contract value basis.
 
Investment Valuation and Income Recognition
 
The Plan’s investments are stated at fair value.  Purchases and sales of securities are recorded on a trade-date basis.  Income from investments is reported as earned on the accrual basis.

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 certain reported amounts of assets and liabilities and changes therein, and disclosures.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.
 
Payment of Benefits
 
Benefits are recorded when paid.

NOTE D - FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

The Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued a statement that defines fair value and establishes a framework for measuring fair value.  That framework provides a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value.  The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurement) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurement). The three levels of fair value hierarchy are described as follows:

 
Level 1 - Inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices available in active markets for identical investments as of the reporting date;
 
 
Level 2 - Inputs to the valuation methodology are other than quoted prices in active markets, which are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reporting date, and fair value can be determined through the use of models or other valuation methodologies; and
 
 
Level 3 - Inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable inputs in situations where there is little or no market activity for the asset or liability and the reporting entity makes estimates and assumptions related to the pricing of the asset or liability including assumptions regarding risk.

A financial instrument's level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The following is a description of the valuation methodologies used for instruments measured at fair value, including the general classification of such instruments pursuant to the valuation hierarchy.

Registered Investment Companies

These investments are public investment vehicles valued using the Net Asset Value (NAV) provided by the administrator of the fund.  The NAV is based on the value of the underlying assets owned by the fund, minus its liabilities, and then divided by the number of shares outstanding.  The NAV is a quoted price in an active market and classified within Level 1 of the valuation hierarchy.

Common and Collective Trust Fund

This investment is a public investment vehicle valued using the NAV provided by the administrator of the fund.  The NAV is based on the value of the underlying assets owned by the fund, minus its liabilities, and then divided by the number of shares outstanding.  The NAV is classified within Level 2 of the valuation hierarchy because the NAV’s unit price is quoted on a private market that is not active; however, the unit price is based on underlying investments which are traded on an active market.

The beneficial interest of each participant is represented by units.  Units are issued and redeemed daily at the Fund’s constant NAV of $1 per unit.  Distribution to this investment is declared from the net investment income and automatically reinvested when paid.  It is the policy of this investment to use its best efforts to maintain a stable net asset value of $1 per unit, however, there is no guarantee that this investment will be able to maintain this value.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Participants ordinarily may direct the withdrawal or transfer of all or a portion of their investment at contract value. Contract value represents contributions made to the Fund, plus earnings, less participant withdrawal and administrative expenses. The Fund imposes certain restrictions on the Plan, and the Fund itself may be subject to circumstances that impact its ability to transact at contract value, as described in the following paragraphs. Plan management believes that the occurrence of events that would cause the Fund to transact at less than contract value is not probable.

Restrictions on the Plan

Participant-initiated transactions are those transactions allowed by the Plan, including withdrawals for benefits, or transfers to noncompeting investments within the Plan, but excluding withdrawals that are deemed to be caused by the actions of the Plan Sponsor.  The following employer-initiated events may limit the ability of this investment to transact at contract value:
 
A failure of the Plan, or its trust to qualify for exemption from federal income taxes, or any required prohibited transaction exemption under ERISA.
   
Any communication given to Plan participants designed to influence a participant not to invest in or transfer assets out of this investment.
   
Any transfer of assets from this investment directly into a competing investment option.
   
The establishment of a defined contribution plan that competes with the Plan for employee contributions.
   
Complete or partial termination of the Plan or its merger with another plan.

Circumstances that Impact the Fund

This investment contains assets that are typically invested in fixed income securities and enters into “wrapper” contracts issued by third parties.  A wrapper contract is an agreement by another party, such as a bank or insurance company, to make payments to this investment in certain circumstances.  Wrapper contracts are designed to allow a stable portfolio to maintain a constant NAV and protect a portfolio in extreme circumstances.  In a typical wrapper contract, the wrapper issuer agrees to pay the difference between the contract value and the market value of the underlying assets if the market value falls below the contract value.

The wrapper contracts generally contain provisions that limit the ability of this investment to transact at contract value upon the occurrence of certain events.  These events include:
 
 
Any substantive modification to this investment, or the administration of this investment, that is not consented to by the wrapper issuer.
     
 
Any change in law, regulation, or administrative ruling applicable to a plan that could have a material adverse effect on this investment’s cash flow.

NOTE D - FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS (Continued)
 
 
Employer-initiated transactions by participant plans described above.
 
In the event that the wrapper contract fails to perform as intended, this investment’s NAV may decline if the market value of its assets decline.  This investment’s ability to receive amounts due pursuant to these wrapper contracts is dependent on the third-party issuer’s ability to meet their financial obligations. The wrapper issuer’s ability to meet its contractual obligations under the wrapper contracts may be affected by future economic and regulatory developments.

This investment is unlikely to maintain a stable NAV if, for any reason, it cannot obtain or maintain wrapper contracts covering all of its underlying assets.  This could result from the investment’s inability to promptly find a replacement wrapper contract following termination of a wrapper contract. Wrapper contracts are not transferable and have no trading market.  There are a limited number of wrapper issuers.  This investment may lose the benefit of a wrapper contract on any portion of its assets in default in excess of a certain percentage of portfolio assets.

Culp, Inc. Common Stock

This investment is valued at the closing price reported on the active market on which the individual security is traded. This investment is classified within Level 1 of the valuation hierarchy.

The Plan held 254,780 and 259,205 shares of the Company’s common stock at December 31, 2011, and 2010, respectively.  The cost basis of these shares of the Company’s common stock was $1,562,853 and $1,563,026 at December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

Money Market Fund

This investment is a public investment vehicle valued using $1 for the NAV.  The money market fund is classified within Level 2 of the valuation hierarchy.

The methods described above may produce a fair value calculation that may not be indicative of net realizable value or reflective of future fair values.  Furthermore, while the Plan believes its valuation methods are appropriate and consistent with other market participants, the use of different methodologies or assumptions to determine the fair value of certain financial instruments could result in a different fair value measurement at the reporting date.

NOTE E - EXEMPT PARTY-IN-INTEREST TRANSACTIONS

Certain Plan investments are shares of a common and collective trust fund and registered investment companies managed by MFS Investment Management. MFS Investment Management is a trustee as defined by the Plan and, accordingly, transactions in these investments qualify as party-in-interest.  Plan investments also include shares of the Company’s common stock.  Transactions in the Company’s common stock also qualify as party-in-interest.

NOTE F - PLAN TERMINATION

Although it has not expressed any intent to do so, the Company has the right under the Plan to discontinue its contributions at any time and to terminate the Plan subject to the provisions of ERISA.

NOTE G - TAX STATUS

The Internal Revenue Service has determined and informed the Company by a letter dated October 1, 2008 that the Plan and related trust are designed in accordance with applicable sections of the IRC.  The Plan has been amended since receiving the determination letter.  However, the Plan administrator and the Plan’s tax counsel believe that the Plan is designed and currently being operated in compliance with the applicable requirements of the IRC.

NOTE H - RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES

The Plan invests in various investment securities.  Investment securities are exposed to various risks, such as interest rate, credit, and overall market volatility.  Due to the level of risk associated with certain investment securities, it is at least reasonably possible that changes in the values of investment securities will occur in the near term and that changes could materially affect the participants’ account balances and the amounts reported in the statement of net assets available for benefits.
