Item 2.02 RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION.

On August 11, 2005, Fedders Corporation (the "Company") filed a Form 12b-25
with the Securities and Exchange Commission to report that it would not timely
file its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended June 30,
2005. As part of the Form 12b-25 the Company disclosed the following financial
information:

The Company anticipates that, as a result of increased inventory of room air
conditioners in key North American markets carried over from 2004, which was
caused by cooler than normal weather in 2004, net sales in the second quarter
ended June 30, 2005 will decrease 29% to approximately $127 million from net
sales of $178.1 million in the second quarter of 2004. It is anticipated that
this inventory has also caused a reduction in net sales for the six months
ended June 30, 2005 of 31% to approximately $205 million from net sales of
$297.4 million in the six months ended June 30, 2004. The more favorable
weather in key North American markets during 2005 is having the effect of
clearing inventories through distribution channels and positioning the
industry well going into 2006.

During the second quarter and six months ended June 30, 2005, the Company
manufactured fewer room air conditioners than in the prior year in order to
reduce inventories. Reduced production has the effect of increasing costs as a
result of lower overhead absorption. The Company anticipates that, despite
increased costs related to lower overhead absorption and inflationary
pressures on raw materials, its gross profit margin as a percentage of net
sales has increased as a result of more favorable product mix and price
increases initiated to offset material cost increases realized during 2004. It
is anticipated that the gross margin for the 2005 second quarter increased to
approximately 20% versus 16.2% in the prior year period and for the 2005
six-month period to approximately 20% in 2005 versus 17.0% in the prior year
period.

The Company anticipates a net loss of approximately $0.6 million during the
quarter ended June 30, 2005, compared to net income of $2.3 million in the
quarter ended June 30, 2004. For the six-month period ended June 30, 2005, the
Company anticipates a loss of $5.4 million versus a loss of $2.9 in the six
months ended June 30, 2004, which included a charge related to the
extinguishment of debt of $8.1 million.

Item 8.01 OTHER EVENTS.

announcing it was delaying the filing of its Form 10-Q for its fiscal quarter
