NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

Note A--Basis of Presentation

Prior to June 30, 2000, Delta Apparel, Inc. (together with its predecessors, the
"Company") was a wholly owned subsidiary of Delta Woodside Industries, Inc.
("Delta Woodside" or the "Parent"). In connection with a plan to separate its
two apparel businesses, Delta Woodside transferred to the Company the assets,
liabilities, and operations of its apparel business previously conducted by the
following divisions or subsidiaries of Delta Woodside: Delta Apparel Company and
the Edgefield yarn plant. Effective June 30, 2000, Delta Woodside distributed
all the common stock of the Company to the Delta Woodside stockholders (the
"Distribution"). In connection with the Distribution, Delta Woodside
contributed, as contributions to capital, all net debt amounts owed to it by the
Company, with certain exceptions. Borrowings related to the Company under Delta
Woodside's credit agreement were repaid with the proceeds from borrowings under
the Company's new credit agreement.

The interim condensed consolidated financial statements for the three months
ended September 30, 2000 and October 2, 1999, included herein, have been
prepared in accordance with the instructions for Form 10-Q and Article 10 of
Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and
footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete
financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting
of only normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation
have been included. Operating results for the three months ended September 30,
2000 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the
year ending June 30, 2001. For further information, refer to the consolidated
financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company's annual
report on Form 10-K for the year ended July 1, 2000, filed with the Securities
and Exchange Commission.

Note B--Inventories

Inventories consist of the following:

                                           =================    ================

Note C--Income Taxes

The effective income tax rate on pretax income for the three months ended
September 30, 2000 was 18.0%, compared to 1.3% for the fiscal year ended July 1,
2000. Based on results to date and projections for the remainder of fiscal year
2001, the Company expects to use its remaining net operating loss carryforwards
and be subject to income taxes on a portion of its income. Based on these
projections, management estimates that the valuation allowances on the tax
benefit resulting from net operating loss carryforwards will be reduced or
eliminated, resulting in an annualized forecasted effective income tax rate of
18.0%.

Note D--Cotton Procurements

The Company has entered into agreements, and has fixed prices, to purchase
cotton for use in its manufacturing operations. At September 30, 2000, minimum
payments under these contracts with non-cancelable contract terms were $9,825.

Note E--Computation of Basic and Diluted Net Earnings per Share (EPS) and
        Proforma EPS

Basic net earnings per share is calculated by dividing the net earnings by the
weighted average common shares outstanding of Delta Apparel, Inc. For the
purposes of earnings per share, the diluted weighted average common shares
outstanding includes the shares covered by options or awards granted under the
Company's Stock Option Plan and the Company's Incentive Stock Award Plan.

Proforma net earnings per share is calculated by dividing the net earnings by
the weighted average common shares outstanding of Delta Woodside Industries,
Inc., adjusted for the distribution ratio assuming that shares distributed in
the Distribution were outstanding for the three months ended October 2, 1999.

The weighted average shares do not include securities that would be
anti-dilutive for each of the periods presented.

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

The following discussion contains various "forward-looking statements". All
statements, other than statements of historical fact, that address activities,
events or developments that the Company expects or anticipates will or may occur
in the future are forward-looking statements. Examples are statements that
concern future revenues, future costs, future capital expenditures, business
strategy, competitive strengths, competitive weaknesses, goals, plans,
references to future success or difficulties and other similar information. The
words "estimate", "project", "forecast", "anticipate", "expect", "intend",
"believe" and similar expressions, and discussions of strategy or intentions,
are intended to identify forward-looking statements.

The forward-looking statements in this Quarterly Report are based on the
Company's expectations and are necessarily dependent upon assumptions, estimates
and data that the Company believes are reasonable and accurate but may be
incorrect, incomplete or imprecise. Forward-looking statements are also subject
to a number of business risks and uncertainties, any of which could cause actual
results to differ materially from those set forth in or implied by the
forward-looking statements. Accordingly, any forward-looking statements do not
purport to be predictions of future events or circumstances and may not be
realized.

The Company does not undertake publicly to update or revise the forward-looking
statements even if it becomes clear that any projected results will not be
realized.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Net sales in the first quarter of fiscal year 2001 were $30.6 million, an
increase of $2.0 million, or 6.9%, from net sales of $28.7 million in the first
quarter of the prior fiscal year. The increase in net sales was the result of
increased unit sales (up 8.5%, accounting for $2.4 million) offset by lower unit
prices (down 1.4%, accounting for $0.4 million). The pricing declines were due
to an average 8.0-10.0% decline in same style pricing, partially offset by an
increase in sales of higher priced products. For fiscal year 2001, the Company
projects a sales growth at an annualized rate approaching 10% and operating
earnings growth at a multiple of the sales growth rate. The Company's sales
expectations for the balance of fiscal year 2001 are dependent on no additional
significant declines in same style pricing.

Gross profit increased to $7.2 million, or 23.6% of sales, in the first three
months of fiscal 2001 from $3.7 million, or 12.9% of sales, in the same period
of fiscal 2000. The increased gross profit resulted from the sale of higher
margin products.

During the three months ended September 30, 2000, selling, general and
administrative expenses were $2.7 million, as compared to $1.9 million during
the three months ended October 2, 1999, an increase of $0.8 million or 39.6%.
For the first quarter of fiscal 2001, expenses in this category were 8.7% of net
sales as compared to 6.6% of net sales for the first quarter of fiscal 2000. The
increase in selling, general and administrative expenses was driven by an
increase of $0.6 million in administrative costs and an increase of bad debt
expense of $0.2 million. The higher administrative costs resulted from the move
of the corporate headquarters, higher commission expense resulting from the
sales of higher margin products, public reporting expenses and an increase in
distribution expense. Bad debt expense in this quarter was 0.7% of sales and is
consistent with our expectations. The increase from the same quarter of fiscal
year 2000 was due to bad debt expense being unusually low in that quarter.

The Company's operating income was $4.6 million for the first quarter of fiscal
2001, compared to $1.8 million in fiscal 2000, an increase of $2.8 million or
158.1%. Delta Apparel's improved gross profit contributed to the improvement in
operating income in the first quarter of fiscal year 2001 due to the factors
described above. The Company's operating income as a percentage of net sales
increased to 15.0% for the first quarter of fiscal 2001 compared to 6.2% for the
first quarter of fiscal 2000.

For the three months ended September 30, 2000, net interest expense was $0.3
million, as compared to $2.2 million for the three months ended October 2, 1999.

<PAGE>

This reduction was a result of the contribution to equity of the intercompany
debt in connection with the spin-off from Delta Woodside Industries, Inc. on
June 30, 2000.

The effective income tax rate on pretax income for the three months ended
September 30, 2000 was 18.0%, compared to 1.3% for the fiscal year ended July 1,
2000. Based on results to date and projections for the remainder of fiscal year
2001, the Company expects to use its remaining net operating loss carryforwards
and be subject to income taxes on a portion of its income. Based on these
projections, management estimates that the valuation allowances on the tax
benefit resulting from net operating loss carryforwards will be reduced or
eliminated, resulting in an annualized forecasted effective income tax rate of
18.0%.

Net income for the first quarter of fiscal year 2001 was $3.5 million, as
compared to a net loss of $0.5 million for the first quarter of fiscal year
2000, due to the factors described above.

Delta Apparel's order backlog at September 30, 2000 was $13.0 million, a $7.2
million decrease from the $20.2 million order backlog at October 2, 1999. The
decrease in backlog is due to the reduction of forward purchase commitments
given by distributors and the increase in short notice orders from catalog
customers. This is due to the decrease in sales to distributors from
approximately 38% of sales in the first quarter of fiscal 2000 to 25% of sales
in the first quarter of fiscal 2001. As a growing percentage of the Company's
business is sold on an immediate shipment basis, Delta Apparel believes that
backlog order levels may no longer give a general indication of future sales.

Inventories at September 30, 2000 totaled $32.0 million, compared to $28.2
million at July 1, 2000. The increase in inventories is due to an increase in
manufacturing capacity which will allow the Company to meet its projected sales
growth. The Company will continue to build its inventory levels as it prepares
for its sales growth for the balance of the fiscal year.

Capital expenditures in the three months ended September 30, 2000 were $0.4
million as compared to $0.1 million in the three months ended October 2, 1999.
These investments were primarily related to E-commerce and the Company's
expansion into Mexico.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Delta Apparel's operating activities provided cash of $4.4 million and $13.1
million in the first quarter of fiscal year 2001 and the first quarter of fiscal
year 2000, respectively. The cash provided in the first quarter of fiscal year
2001 was primarily due to net income and a reduction in accounts receivable,
offset by an increase in inventory. The cash provided in the first quarter of
fiscal year 2000 was primarily due to a reduction in accounts receivable and an
increase in accounts payable and accrued expenses.

In mid-May 2000, Delta Apparel entered into a credit agreement with a lending
institution, under which the lender provided Delta Apparel with a $10 million
term loan and a 3-year $25 million revolving credit facility. All loans under
the credit agreement bear interest at rates based on an adjusted LIBOR rate plus
an applicable margin or a bank's prime rate plus an applicable margin. Delta
Apparel granted the lender a first mortgage lien on or security interest in
substantially all of its assets. Delta Apparel has the option to increase the
revolving credit facility from $25 million to $30 million, provided that no
event of default exists under the facility.

Delta Apparel expects that its peak borrowing needs will be in its third and
fourth fiscal quarters and that during those quarters it may need to draw or set
aside for letters of credit approximately $7.0 million under its revolving
credit facility for working capital purposes and letters of credit. The interest
rate on the term loan at September 30, 2000 was 8.63%.

Based on these expectations, Delta Apparel believes that its $25 million
revolving credit facility should be sufficient to satisfy its foreseeable
working capital needs, and that the cash flow generated by its operations and
funds available under its revolving credit line should be sufficient to service
its debt payment requirements, to satisfy its day-to-day working capital needs
and to fund its planned capital expenditures. Any material deterioration in
Delta Apparel's results of operations, however, may result in Delta Apparel
losing its ability to borrow under its revolving credit facility and to issue
letters of credit to suppliers or may cause the borrowing availability under
that facility to be insufficient for Delta Apparel's needs.


Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risks

COMMODITY RISK SENSITIVITY

The Company purchases cotton from approximately seven established merchants with
whom it has long standing relationships. The majority of the Company's purchases
are executed using "on-call" contracts. These on-call arrangements are used to
insure that an adequate supply of cotton is available for the Company's
requirements. Under on-call contracts, the Company agrees to purchase specific
quantities for delivery on specific dates, with pricing to be determined at a
later time. Prices are set according to prevailing prices, as reported by the
New York Cotton Exchange, at the time of the Company's election to fix specific
contracts.

Cotton on-call with a fixed price at September 30, 2000 was valued at $9.8
million, and is scheduled for delivery between October, 2000 and March, 2001. At
September 30, 2000, the Company had unpriced contracts for deliveries between
January, 2001 and September, 2001. Based on the prevailing price at September
30, 2000, the value of these commitments is approximately $8.2 million. Daily
price fluctuations are minimal, yet long-term trends in price movement can
result in unfavorable pricing of cotton for Delta Apparel. Delta Apparel does
not use financial instruments to hedge commodity price risk. At September 30,
2000, a 10% decline in the market price of the cotton covered by Delta Apparel's
fixed price contracts would have had a negative impact of approximately $1.0
million on the value of the contracts.

INTEREST RATE SENSITIVITY

Delta Apparel's credit agreement provides that the interest rate on outstanding
amounts owed shall bear interest at variable rates. If the amount of outstanding
indebtedness at September 30, 2000 under the term loan had been the amount
outstanding during the entire three months ended September 30, 2000 and the
interest rate on this outstanding indebtedness had been increased by 1%, Delta
Apparel's expense would have been approximately $0.1 million higher during the
quarter. The actual increase in interest expense resulting from a change in
interest rates would depend on the magnitude of the increase in rates and the
average principal balance outstanding.
