                            WELLCO ENTERPRISES, INC.
                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
              FOR THE FISCAL THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 28, 1996



1. GOVERNMENT BOOT CONTRACT REVENUES:

      Revenues in the three  month  period  ended  September  28,  1996  include
      $179,109  representing  the estimated amount of contract change orders and
      adjustments that have not as yet been negotiated with the government.  Any
      difference between the estimates and the actual amounts negotiated will be
      recorded in the period in which negotiations are completed.

2. NOTE PAYABLE:

      This  represents the present value of the expected  future  payments to be
      made under a note payable related to Wellco's repurchase of 510,424 shares
      of its common stock from its former  majority  shareholder on December 29,
      1995.  Actual  payments  under the note will only be made for  amounts  by
      which  60% of each  fiscal  year's  net  income  exceeds  certain  defined
      amounts,  calculated on a cumulative  basis,  with the first payment being
      due for the 1997 fiscal year which ends June 28,  1997.  The note does not
      provide for the payment of interest and does not require a minimum  yearly
      payment.  Total payments  under the note cannot exceed  $1,531,000 and all
      obligations under the note terminate after the 2003 fiscal year payment.

      Adjustments  will be made to the amount  recorded  based on actual amounts
      paid and if future events significantly change estimated future payments.

3. EQUITY IN LOSS OF AFFILIATE:

      Wellco owned 400,000 shares of the common stock of  Alba-Waldensian,  Inc.
      (the  affiliate)  which was  accounted  for using the equity  method.  The
      $122,000  represents  Wellco's  equity in the loss of Alba for the quarter
      ended  September 30, 1995. On December 29, 1995,  all 400,000  shares were
      used as a part of the consideration paid for the 510,424 share repurchase.

4. WEIGHTED AVERAGE NUMBER OF SHARES OUTSTANDING:

      The 510,424  shares  repurchased  reduced  total  shares outstanding  from
      884,806 to 374,382.

                          PART I. FINANCIAL INFORMATION

Item 2. Management's  Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations


                              RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

   Comparing The Three Months Ended September 28, 1996 and September 30, 1995:

Income  before  income taxes in the current  quarter was $398,000  compared to a
loss of $61,000 in the prior year first quarter.  The prior quarter's income was
reduced by a loss of $122,000  representing  Wellco's  equity in the loss of its
21.4% owned  affiliate,  Alba-Waldensian,  Inc., for that quarter.  Wellco owned
400,000 shares of the common stock of Alba from December 30, 1994 until December
29, 1995,  when these shares were  exchanged as a part of the purchase price for
Wellco's repurchase of 510,424 shares of its common stock. Marketable securities
were sold to provide the cash portion of the stock repurchase  price,  resulting
in the total of dividend,  interest and  investment  income in the September 28,
1996 period being $89,000 less than the September 30, 1995 period.

Income  before Equity in (Loss) of Affiliate  and Total  Dividend,  Interest and
Investment  Income was  $381,000  in the  current  period  compared to a loss of
$45,000 in the prior period. The major reasons for this change are:

      1.       Revenues  increased  $612,000.   Pairs of  combat  boots  sold to
               the U. S. government  were 11,000 more in the current  period. In
               the three  months ended September 28, 1996,  Wellco was  shipping
               combat boots under  the  second option of its  current  contract.
               For the prior  period, shipments  were under  the  first  option.
               Both options are for  the same  total  pairs,  but  the  delivery
               period  for the  second  option  is twelve  months  and  for  the
               first  option it was  sixteen months.

               Revenues from technical  assistance fees,  equipment  rentals and
               sales  of  boot  manufacturing  raw  materials  were  more in the
               current period.  Technical  assistance fees and equipment rentals
               vary with the customer's  sales.  The sale of boot  manufacturing
               materials can vary significantly from period to period, depending
               on customers' needs.

      2.       The major  categories  of fixed and  semi-variable  manufacturing
               costs  decreased  by $15,000  in the  current  period.  Wellco is
               self-insured  for it employees  group health  insurance which was
               $27,000 less in the three months ended September 28, 1996.

General and  administrative  expenses  increased $59,000 in the current quarter.
The  increased  quarter's  profit  resulted in an increase in the  provision for
employee  bonuses  which are based on profit.  Travel  costs  increased  because
Wellco participated in two military equipment shows in the current quarter.

Income taxes were provided at the estimated  overall rate for the fiscal year. A
tax provision was recorded in the prior year to provide for state taxes.

Forward Looking Information:

Deliveries  under the second  and last  option of the  current U. S.  government
combat boot contract will be substantially completed in December 1996.

On September 27, 1996,  Wellco  submitted a bid against a  solicitation  for the
next  contract  with awards  estimated to be in mid December  1996.  As with the
current  contract,  the government  plans to make awards to each of the expected
four bidders, and will use the best value method of evaluating bids. Under this

                                       -9-

<PAGE>



method, the highest rated bidder receives 35% of total pairs, the second highest
rated  bidder gets 25%, and the other two bidders  receive 20% each.  Under best
value,  bidders are rated on their past  performance,  quality history and other
criteria,  and bid prices are not the most  important  factor.  For the  current
contract, Wellco is the 25% supplier.

Contracts  awarded from the new solicitation  will provide for a base year award
and four option years.  Prior to each option's  exercise,  the  government  will
evaluate each's  contractor's  performance during the prior period and will make
the  35%/25%/20%/20%  option  award  based  on that  evaluation,  with  the best
performing contractor getting the greater percent.

Since 1992,  the  government  has been reducing its inventory of combat boots by
buying  fewer pairs than were  consumed.  The current  solicitation  establishes
total  minimum and maximum  pairs to be ordered for each year of the contract of
703,220 and 1,055,828. These amounts are less than estimated consumption and are
less  than  the  total  annual  pairs   ordered   under  the  current   contract
(approximately  1,108,000 pairs). The government has stated that their intent is
to purchase  total  annual  pairs of combat  boots equal to 78% of  consumption,
which  would  be  approximately  880,000  based  on  estimated  consumption.  In
addition,   during  the  first  year  of  new  contracts   resulting  from  this
solicitation,  the government will buy an additional  total 205,000 pairs of the
desert  combat boot which will be used to  establish a war  reserve  stock.  The
Company  believes that the  government  will reach its desired  inventory  level
between  the  fourth  and fifth  year of the  contract,  at which time we expect
orders to  increase  to the level of  consumption.  The effect of reduced  total
pairs purchased on future  operating  results will depend on many factors,  with
per pair price and the  percent  awarded  to Wellco  being the major  ones,  and
cannot be estimated until after contract award.

On September 30, 1996,  Wellco was awarded a contract from a state to provide up
to 34,000 pairs of six inch work shoes.  Deliveries  under this  contract are to
take place during the October, 1996 through September, 1997 period.

In late  August,  1995,  the Company was awarded a $1,184,000  development  boot
contract from the U. S. government. The objective of this contract is to develop
changes to the combat boot that will result in fewer lower extremity  disorders.
This work is divided into three phases and will be completed in about two years.
Development,  testing and delivery of  prototype  boots under the first phase of
this contract was completed in late  February,  1996.  In September,  1996,  the
government  committed  funds to the  second  phase  and work  will  start in the
quarter ending December 28, 1996.

Except for  historical  information,  this Form 10-Q  includes  forward  looking
statements that involve risks and uncertainties,  including, but not limited to,
the  receipt  of  contracts  from  the U.  S.  government  and  the  performance
thereunder,  the  ability to control  costs under  fixed  price  contracts,  the
cancellation  of  contracts,  and other risks  detailed from time to time in the
Company's  Securities and Exchange Commission  filings,  including Form 10-K for
the year  ended  June 29,  1996.  Actual  results  may  differ  materially  from
management expectations.

                         LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Wellco uses cash from  operations to supply most of its liquidity  needs. A bank
line of credit is maintained for supplying any unforeseen cash needs.

</TABLE>


Accounts  receivable  decreased because of some improvement in the timeliness of
the U. S.  government's  payments  and because of the  receipt of payments  from
certain significant June 29, 1996 receivables.

The Company  believes  that its cash  resources  are adequate to meet  presently
known  operating  activity  needs.  The Company has no material  commitments for
capital  equipment.  Note 2 to the Consolidated  Financial  Statements  provides
information  about a commitment to make  additional cash payments from the stock
repurchase,  contingent  upon net income for the six fiscal  years 1997  through
2002.   The  Company   does  not  know  of  any  other   demands,   commitments,
uncertainties,  or trends that will result in or that are  reasonably  likely to
result in its liquidity increasing or decreasing in any material way.

The bank line of credit, which provides for total borrowings of $1,500,000, will
expire and be subject to renewal on December 30, 1996.
