NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Adams Golf, Inc.
(the "Company") for the three month periods ended March 31, 1998 and 1999
have been prepared by the Company, pursuant to the rules and regulations of
the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). The information furnished
herein reflects all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring accruals
and adjustments) which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to fairly
state the operating results for the respective periods. However, these
operating results are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for
the full fiscal year. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally
included in annual consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance
with generally accepted accounting principles have been omitted pursuant to
SEC rules and regulations. The notes to the unaudited condensed consolidated
financial statements should be read in conjunction with the notes to the
consolidated financial statements contained in the Company's 1998 Annual
Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 29, 1999.
The Company, founded in 1987, designs, manufactures, markets, and distributes
premium quality, technologically innovative golf clubs and provides custom
golf club fitting technology. The Company's primary products are fairway
woods and drivers that are marketed under the trademarks "Tight Lies" and "SC
Series," respectively.
2. MARKETABLE SECURITIES
Marketable securities, primarily consisting of governmental and corporate
bonds, are managed under agreements with investment managers. The agreements
provide terms related to the quality, diversification and maturities of the
investments in the managed portfolios. The investments are classified as
available-for-sale and are carried at fair value, with unrealized gains and
losses, net of the related tax effect, reported as other comprehensive income
in the consolidated statement of stockholders' equity. The balance sheet
classification of the Company's marketable securities is based upon the
contractual maturity date of such securities.
Marketable securities consist of the following (in thousands):

4. PROFESSIONAL SERVICES AGREEMENT
The professional services agreement consists of a contract entered into by
the Company and Nicholas A. Faldo ("Faldo"), a professional golfer, which
provides for Faldo's endorsement and use of the Company's products, as well
as the design, development and testing of new technologies and products. As
consideration for such services, Faldo received 900,000 shares of the
Company's common stock, which were valued at the fair market value of the
stock ($11.25 per share) as of May 1, 1998, the effective date of the
agreement. The value of the stock will be amortized over ten years, which
represents the estimated period during which the Company will realize
benefits under the agreement.
5. INCOME (LOSS) PER SHARE
The weighted average common shares used for determining basic income (loss)
per common share were 17,662,189 and 22,479,436 for the three months ended
March 31, 1998 and 1999, respectively. The effect of dilutive stock options
added 678,263 shares for the three months ended March 31, 1998, for the
computation of diluted income per common share. The effect of stock options
in 1999 was antidilutive.
6. GEOGRAPHIC SEGMENT AND DATA
In 1998, the Company adopted SFAS No. 131, DISCLOSURES ABOUT SEGMENTS OF AN
ENTERPRISE AND RELATED INFORMATION. This statement establishes standards for
reporting information about operating segments and related disclosures about
products and services, geographic areas and major customers.
The Company generates substantially all revenues from the design,
manufacturing, marketing and distribution of premium quality, technologically

</TABLE>
At March 31, 1999, the Company has no assets outside of the United States.
7. NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
The Company is assessing the reporting and disclosure requirements of SFAS
No. 133, ACCOUNTING FOR DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES. This
statement establishes accounting and reporting standards for derivative
instruments and hedging activities. The statement is effective for financial
statements for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 1999. The Company
believes SFAS No. 133 will not have a material impact on its financial
statements or accounting policies. The Company will adopt the provisions of
SFAS No. 133 in the first quarter of 2000.
8. ACQUISITION
On April 30, 1999, the Company acquired certain assets and assumed certain
liabilities of its exclusive distributor for the United Kingdom, which was
majority owned by Faldo. Consideration for these assets included
approximately $229,000 in cash and a contingent cash payment of $200,000 due
at the end of 1999 based upon the achievement of certain minimum levels of
operating results. As the acquisition occurred subsequent to March 31, 1999,
the condensed consolidated financial statements do not reflect any activity
related to the acquisition.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the
attached unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and notes
thereto, and with the Company's consolidated financial statements and notes
thereto for the year ended December 31, 1998.
OVERVIEW
The Company designs, manufactures, markets and distributes premium quality,
technologically innovative golf clubs. Founded in 1987, the Company operated
initially as a components supplier and contract manufacturer. Thereafter, the
Company established its custom fitting operation which currently services a
network of over 100 certified custom fitting accounts. In the fall of 1995,
the Company introduced the original Tight Lies fairway wood and, in December
1996, the Company extended the Tight Lies line to include the Tight Lies
Strong 3, Strong 5 and Strong 7, with the Tight Lies Strong 9 being
introduced in January 1998. Sales of the Tight Lies line of products
increased significantly subsequent to the second quarter of 1997 when the
Company launched an infomercial relating to the original Tight Lies fairway
wood. To further enhance the Tight Lies line of products, the Company
introduced the Strong 2 Tour Brassie and the Strong 11 in late August 1998.
The Company introduced the SC Series Titanium drivers and the Faldo Series
wedges in January 1999. Sales of these new products were not significant
during the three months ended March 31, 1999. The Company's net sales are
primarily derived from sales to on-and off-course golf shops and selected
sporting goods retailers and, to a lesser extent, direct sales to consumers,
international distributors and the Company's custom fitting accounts.
The Company believes that during the second half of 1998, the golf industry
experienced declining sales, which situation stabilized somewhat during the
first quarter of 1999. No assurances can be given that demand for the
Company's current products or the introduction of new products will allow the
Company to achieve historical levels of sales in the future.
The Company does not currently manufacture the components required to
assemble its golf clubs, relying instead on various component suppliers.
Fairway wood components are each available from multiple suppliers.
Currently, however, certain components for the new SC Series Titanium drivers
and the Faldo Series wedges are produced by a single supplier. Costs of the
Company's current Tight Lies line of fairway woods, new SC Series Titanium
drivers and Faldo Series wedges consist primarily of component parts,
including the head, shaft and grip. To a lesser extent, the Company's cost of
goods sold includes labor and occupancy costs in connection with the
inspection, testing and assembly of component parts at its facility in Plano,
Texas.

</TABLE>
THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 1998 COMPARED TO THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 1999
Net sales decreased to $8.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 1999
from $24.5 million for the comparable period of 1998, primarily due to high
levels of Tight Lies fairway wood inventory at retailers and the
implementation of a new pricing structure which resulted in lower suggested
retail prices and consequently lower wholesale prices to retail customers.
Management believes that by March 31, 1999 retail inventories had been
reduced to levels appropriate for the Company's market share, a situation
that should result in re-stocking orders during subsequent periods. Also,
during the three months ended March 31, 1999, net sales do not include a
material amount of revenues from the SC Series Titanium drivers due to delays
in the manufacture of certain component parts. These manufacturing delays
have been largely resolved, and the Company expects to eliminate the
resulting backlog of orders for these new products during the second quarter
of 1999. See "Certain Business Considerations" below. Net sales of the Tight
Lies line of fairway woods were $7.6 million, or 88.4% of net sales, for the
three months ended March 31, 1999 compared to $23.8 million, or 97.3% of net
sales, for the three months ended March 31, 1998. Net sales of other product
lines for the three months ended March 31, 1999 increased to $1.0 million
from $0.7 million for the comparable period of 1998, and increased as a
percentage of net sales to 11.6% from 2.9%, respectively. Net sales of the
Company's products outside the U.S. decreased to $1.3 million for the three
months ended March 31, 1999 from $1.4 million for the three months ended
March 31, 1998, but increased as a percentage of net sales to 15.1% from
5.7%, respectively.
Cost of goods sold decreased to $3.2 million for the three months ended March
31, 1999 from $5.9 million for the comparable period of 1998, and increased
as a percentage of net sales to 37.3% from 23.9%, respectively, primarily due
to lower average selling prices during the three months ended March 31, 1999
resulting from the Company's new suggested retail pricing structure and
customer rebate program, an increase of sales to retailers compared to sales
to direct consumers, increased overhead costs resulting from a larger, leased
production facility and due to costs associated with the serialization of all
fairway woods and drivers.
Operating expenses are comprised primarily of selling and royalty expenses,
general and administrative expenses, and, to a lesser extent, research and
development expenses. Selling and royalty expenses increased to $8.7 million
for the three months ended March 31, 1999 from $6.2 million for the
comparable period of 1998 as a result of hiring additional employees and
11
<PAGE>
increased marketing and advertising efforts. During the three months ended
March 31, 1999, the Company advertised extensively utilizing both television
and print media in order to promote the introduction of the SC Series
Titanium driver and to promote sell-through of the Tight Lies inventory at
retailers. General and administrative expenses, including provisions for bad
debts, decreased to $2.1 million, or 24.4% as a percentage of net sales, for
the three months ended March 31, 1999 from $3.3 million, or 13.5% as a
percentage of net sales, for the comparable period ended March 31, 1998,
primarily due to elimination of incentive compensation, a decrease in the use
of outside services, and a reduction in bad debt expense as a result of
increased collection efforts. Research and development expenses for the three
months ended March 31, 1999 increased to $0.5 million from $0.2 million for
the same period in 1998, and increased as a percentage of net sales to 5.5%
from 1.0%, primarily due to the addition of employees and tooling expenses
associated with the development of new products.
As a result of the above changes, operating loss was $6.1 million for the
three months ended March 31, 1999 compared to operating income of $8.9
million for the comparable period of 1998.
The effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 1999 was 40.4%
compared to 35.7% for the comparable period in the prior year. The income tax
benefit of $2.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 1999 results
primarily from tax losses, including non-taxable interest income, which are
available to the Company.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Cash and cash equivalents decreased to $15.5 million at March 31, 1999 from
$23.7 million at December 31, 1998, primarily as a result of $3.6 million
used in operations and $4.6 million used for investing activities. The
decrease in cash flows provided by operations was primarily a result of the
net loss. Primary uses of operating cash flows were increases in trade
receivables and prepaid expenses of $1.3 million and $1.0 million,
respectively, for the three months ended March 31, 1999, which was offset by
a $1.6 million increase in accounts payable related to increased advertising
expenditures. The increase in trade receivables is primarily the result of an
increase in sales near the end of the three month period ended March 31,
1999, and the increase in prepaid expenses is the result of prepayments of
advertising, inventory and insurance.
During the fourth quarter of 1998, the Company granted to retailers an
unconditional credit, which aggregated $4.3 million, in connection with the
Company's new suggested retail pricing structure. The unconditional credit
reduced cash flows from operations by $2.1 million during the three months
ended March 31, 1999. Cash flows during the second quarter of 1999 will also
be negatively impacted by the unconditional credit which the Company expects
to be fully utilized by June 30, 1999. The Company does not expect additional
changes to its wholesale pricing structure during the remainder of 1999.
Cash used in investing activities of $4.6 million for the three months ended
March 31, 1999 is primarily related to purchases of marketable securities,
which approximated $3.5 million, and purchases of computer equipment and
software, which approximated $1.1 million. The Company anticipates making
capital expenditures in the ordinary course of business of approximately $1.0
million in the balance of 1999, which includes additional information system
enhancements and additional research and development equipment.
Working capital approximated $47.0 million at March 31, 1999 compared to
$53.0 million at December 31, 1998.
The Company has a $10.0 million revolving credit facility, which expires on
May 31, 2000. At March 31, 1999, the Company had no outstanding borrowings
under this facility. Borrowings under the Company's revolving credit facility
agreement bear interest at rates based on the lending bank's general
refinance rate of interest or certain LIBOR rates of interest. During the
first quarter of 1998, the Company borrowed approximately $1.1 million in the
form of a note payable to the Company's founder, Chief Executive Officer and
President to be used for working capital purposes. The remaining principal
amount of the note (approximately $175,000 at March 31, 1999) was paid April
14, 1999 at an interest rate of 5.39% per annum.

The Company is not aware of any event or trend which would potentially affect
its liquidity. In the event such a trend would develop, the Company believes
that projected cash flows from operations, current cash reserves and the
revolving credit facility would be sufficient to meet operating needs and
capital expenditures for at least the next 12 months.
SEASONALITY AND QUARTERLY FLUCTUATIONS
Golf generally is regarded as a warm weather sport and sales of golf
equipment historically have been strongest during the second and third
quarters, with the weakest sales occurring during the fourth quarter. In
addition, sales of golf clubs are dependent on discretionary consumer
spending, which may be affected by general economic conditions. A decrease in
consumer spending generally could result in decreased spending on golf
equipment, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company's
business, operating results and financial condition. In addition, the
Company's future results of operations could be affected by a number of other
factors, such as unseasonal weather patterns; demand for and market
acceptance of the Company's existing and future products; new product
introductions by the Company's competitors; competitive pressures resulting
in lower than expected average selling prices; and the volume of orders that
are received and that can be fulfilled in a quarter. Any one or more of these
factors could result in the Company failing to achieve its expectations as to
future sales or net income. See "Forward Looking Statements" below.
YEAR 2000 READINESS DISCLOSURE
The year 2000 will have a broad impact on the business environment in which
the Company operates due to the possibility that many computerized systems
across all industries will be unable to process information containing the
dates beginning in the year 2000. The Company relies on its internal
information technology systems in operating and monitoring many significant
aspects of its business, including financial systems, customer services,
infrastructure and network and telecommunications equipment. The Company also
relies directly and indirectly on the systems of external business
enterprises such as suppliers, customers, creditors, financial organizations
and domestic and international governments. The Company has established an
enterprise-wide program to prepare its computer systems and applications for
the year 2000 and is utilizing both internal and external resources to
identify, correct and test the systems for Year 2000 compliance. The
Company's legacy information system, as well as the information system
currently being implemented, are certified as Year 2000 compliant. The
Company substantially completed an inventory of all information technology
and non-information technology equipment as of December 31, 1998 and
anticipates that the majority of its remediation plan will be completed by
June 30, 1999. The Company expects that all systems critical to the conduct
of the Company's operations will be Year 2000 compliant prior to the end of
the 1999 calendar year.
The nature of the Company's business is such that the business risks
associated with the Year 2000 can be reduced by closely assessing the vendors
supplying the components used in assembling the Company's products. Because
third party failures could have a material impact on the Company's ability to
conduct business, questionnaires have been sent to the Company's significant
vendors to obtain reasonable assurance that plans are being developed to
address the Year 2000 issue. The returned questionnaires are currently being
assessed by the Company, and are being categorized based upon readiness for
the Year 2000 issues and prioritized in order of significance to the business
of the Company. To the extent that vendors do not provide the Company with
satisfactory evidence of their readiness to handle Year 2000 issues,
contingency plans will be developed by July 31, 1999.

<PAGE>
The Company does not believe the costs related to the Year 2000 compliance
project will be material to its financial position or results of operations.
However, the cost of the project and the date on which the Company plans to
complete the Year 2000 modifications are based on management's best
estimates, which were derived utilizing numerous assumptions of future events
including the continued availability of certain resources, third party
modification plans, and other factors. Unanticipated failures by critical
vendors, as well as failure by the Company to execute its own remediation
plans, could have a material adverse effect on the cost of the project, its
completion date, and the Company's results of operations and financial
position. As a result, there can be no assurance that these forward-looking
estimates will be achieved and the actual cost and vendor compliance could
differ materially from those plans, resulting in material financial risk.
CERTAIN BUSINESS CONSIDERATIONS
The Company's growth and success depend, in large part, on its ability to
successfully develop and introduce new products accepted in the marketplace.
Historically, a large portion of new golf club technologies and product
designs have been met with consumer rejection. No assurance can be given that
the Company's new SC Series Titanium drivers, Faldo Series wedges or other
new products will meet with market acceptance. Failure by the Company to
identify and develop innovative new products that achieve widespread market
acceptance would adversely affect the Company's future growth and
profitability.
The Company's ability to compete effectively in the golf club market is also
dependent on its ability to maintain the proprietary nature of its
technologies and products. Although the Company currently has one or more
patents pending with respect to its new products and/or the proprietary
technologies underlying such products, no assurance can be given that patents
will ultimately be issued or of the benefits of protection afforded thereby.
Policing unauthorized use of the Company's intellectual property rights can
be difficult and expensive, and while the Company takes appropriate action
whenever it discovers any of its products or designs have been copied,
knock-offs and counterfeit products are a persistent problem in the
performance-oriented golf club industry.
