consolidated into the one $6,000,000 obligation. This new loan is secured by (1)
a first Deed of Trust on property and buildings located at the Company's
manufacturing sites in North Carolina, (2) a first lien position on the new
equipment and machinery installed at these manufacturing sites and (3) a first
lien position on the existing machinery and equipment located at the Company's

NOTE 11 - CONCENTRATIONS OF CREDIT RISK
- ---------------------------------------
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentration of
credit risk consist principally of occasional temporary cash investments and
amounts due from the factor on receivables sold to the factor on a non-recourse
basis. The receivables sold to the factor during a month generally have a
maturity date on the 20th to the 30th of the following month. At July 3, 1999,
the Company had $3,574,000 due from its factor of which $1,712,000 matured on
July 20, 1999. Upon maturity, the funds are automatically transferred by the
factor to the Company's bank.
NOTE 12 - COMMITMENTS
- ---------------------
a) The Company entered into a supply agreement, dated November 23, 1996, with
its joint venture company, Fytek, S.A. de C.V. to purchase twisted yarns. The
Company agrees to purchase approximately $1,800,000 of twisted yarn annually for
the five years beginning November 1997.
b) The Company entered into a supply agreement, dated November 19, 1996, with
Fibras Quimicas, S.A. to purchase yarn. The Company agrees to purchase yarn
based on the schedule below, beginning February 1, 1997, for a five year period.
Year 1 Approximately $2,600,000
Year 2 Approximately $6,400,000
Year 3 Approximately $7,100,000
Year 4 Approximately $7,700,000
Year 5 Approximately $7,700,000
c) The Company and Titan Textile Company, Inc., signed an agreement which became
effective April 1, 1999, whereby the Company will sell its friction texturing
equipment to Titan and in turn purchase textured yarns from Titan. The agreement
states that the Company will purchase 70,000 pounds per week as long as the
Company has a requirement for textured yarns. When the Company's requirements
exceeds 140,000 pounds per week, the Company will purchase at least 50% of its
requirements from Titan. The textured yarn pricing structure will be reviewed
every six months and when POY prices increase or decrease by 5% or more.
d) The Company was committed to a remaining balance on an outstanding
irrevocable import Letter of Credit for machinery purchases on July 3, 1999 in
the amount of $345,000. The Letter of Credit will be funded on January 3, 2000.
e) During 1996 in connection with a bank loan to the Company secured by real
estate, the Company had a Phase I Environmental Site Assessment conducted on its
property. The assessment indicated the presence of a contaminant in the
groundwater under the Company's property. The contaminant was a solvent used by
the Company in the past but no longer used. The contamination was reported to
the North Carolina Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR). DENR
required a Comprehensive Site Assessment that has been completed. The Company's
outside engineering firm conducted testing and prepared a Corrective Action Plan
that was submitted to DENR. The Company has identified remediation issues and is
moving toward a solution of natural attenuation. The Company believes it has
made an adequate provision to earnings in 1997 to cover any future cost. No
provision was made in 1998 or 1999. This situation will have no material impact
on the capital expenditures, earnings or competitive position of the Company.

NOTE 13 - INVESTMENT IN AFFILIATE AND RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
- ----------------------------------------------------------------
The company owns 49.8% of Fytek, S.A. de C.V. (Fytek), a Mexican corporation.

equipment sold and leased to Fytek of which $58,000 will be paid in July. The
Company owes Fytek $77,000 for the purchase of twisted yarns.
NOTE 14 - ACCOUNTING FOR POSSIBLE IMPAIRMENT OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS
- -----------------------------------------------------------------
In 1995 the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement No. 121,
"Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to
be Disposed Of", which requires impairment losses to be recorded on long-lived
assets used in operations when indicators of impairment are present and the
undiscounted cash flows estimated to be generated by those assets are less than
the assets carrying amount. Statement No. 121 also addresses the accounting for
long-lived assets that are expected to be disposed of. The Company adopted
Statement No. 121 in the first quarter of 1996 and such adoption did not have
any material effect on the financial statements for 1998 or for the twenty-six
weeks ended July 3, 1999.
NOTE 15 - EARNINGS PER SHARE
- ----------------------------
Earnings per share are based on the net income divided by the weighted average
number of common shares outstanding during the thirteen and twenty-six week
periods ended July 3, 1999, and July 4, 1998.

THIRTEEN WEEKS ENDED JULY 3, 1999
COMPARED TO THIRTEEN WEEKS ENDED JULY 4, 1998
Net Sales
- ---------
Net sales for the thirteen weeks ended July 3, 1999, increased by 7.7% to
$10,796,000 compared to $10,023,000 for the similar period of 1998. The increase
in sales was primarily due to new products introduced in 1998 and one additional
shipping week as compared to 1998.
Cost of Sales and Gross Margin
- ------------------------------
Cost of sales for the thirteen weeks of 1999 increased by 8.0% on a sales
increase of 7.7%. The increase was primarily due to one additional production
week in the second quarter of 1999 and an increase in overtime pay caused by the
start of the company's new ERP system.
As a result of an increase in sales of 7.7% and an increase in cost of sales of
8.0%, gross margins decreased to 9.4% compared to 9.6% in 1998.

increased to $1,233,000 compared to $702,261 in 1998. The increase is primarily
due to the cost of $362,000 related to training, data conversion and start up of
the Company's new ERP software.

- ----------------
Factor's charges decreased to .3% as compared to .4% of sales in 1998. The
percent of sales factored decreased during the quarter.

long-term debt was lower as a result of principal payments.
Interest Income

which had a gross value of $1,342,000 and a net book value of $230,000 for
$446,000 (also see Note 12 Commitments), resulting in a gain on disposal of
$216,000.
Also, the Company replaced dyeing equipment with a gross value of $86,000 and a
net book value of $26,000, resulting in a loss on disposal of $26,000.
These were the major transactions which netted a gain on disposal of equipment.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

Equity in Net Earnings of Affiliate
- -----------------------------------
The Company recorded $99,900 as earnings from Fytek, S.A. De C.V., its joint
venture in Mexico. The Company's share of net earnings and losses is 50%. Fytek
began operations in the fourth quarter of 1997.
Income before Provision for Income Taxes
- ----------------------------------------
For the twenty-six weeks ended July 3, 1999, income before provision for income
taxes decreased primarily as a result of cost associated with the implementation
of the Company's new ERP software.
Provision for Income Taxes
- --------------------------
The Company recorded a provision for taxes of $50,000 for the twenty-six weeks
of 1999, compared to $219,000 for 1998.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
- -------------------------------
The Company sells a substantial portion of its accounts receivable to a
commercial factor so that the factor assumes the credit risk for these accounts
and effects the collection of the receivables. As of April 3, 1999, the Company
had $3,574,000 due from its factor of which $1,712,000 matured on July 20, 1999.
The Company has the right to borrow up to 90% of the face amount of each account
sold to the factor.
The Company has an equipment line of credit from its bank and under which the
Company may borrow up to $2,000,000 for the acquisition of production machinery.
The amounts borrowed under the credit line would be converted to a note payable
in eighty-four (84) equal monthly installments plus accrued interest.
The Company's working capital at July 3, 1999, aggregated $4,954,000
representing a working capital ratio of 1.7 to 1 compared with a working capital
of $7,830,000 at January 2, 1999, and a working capital ratio of 3.3 to 1.
The Company's working capital ratio decreased as a result of an increase in
accounts payable for equipment purchases. The Company has open Letters of Credit
for $1,974,000 which are payable between October 8, 1999, and December 21, 1999.
The Company will use its $2,000,000 equipment line of credit to fund the Letter
of Credit requirement. There was no borrowing under the equipment line of credit
at July 3, 1999, but the line will be fully utilized in the second half of 1999.
As a measure of current liquidity, the Company's quick position (cash, cash
equivalents and receivables over current liabilities) discloses the following at
April 3, 1999:
Cash, cash equivalents and receivables........... $5,959,000
Current liabilities.............................. 6,715,000
---------
Deficit of quick assets to current liabilities... $ (756,000)
The Company believes that its cash, cash equivalents and receivables, and its
factoring and credit arrangements will be sufficient to finance its operations
for the next 12 months.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
(Continued)
Liquidity and Capital Resources (Continued)
- -------------------------------------------
The results of operations of the Company for the periods discussed have not been
significantly affected by inflation.
During the twenty-six weeks of 1999, the Company acquired and made deposits on
new machinery and equipment of approximately $3,643,000 as set forth in the
accompanying statement of cash flows. For the balance of 1999, the Company
anticipates the acquisition of machinery and equipment of approximately $357,000
which, together with the acquisitions and deposits on acquisitions incurred to
July 3, 1999, will aggregate an anticipated acquisition of new machinery of
approximately $4,000,000 in 1999. The Company plans to finance its capital from
cash provided from operations and bank financing.
The Company's cash and equivalents decreased for the twenty-six weeks ended July
3, 1999, to $758,000 from $3,384,000 at January 2, 1999, primarily from
increases in accounts receivable and inventory aggregating $2,656,000,
acquisitions of equipment and deposits of $3,643,000 and payments of long-term
debt of $187,500, offset partially by increased accounts payable of $2,792,000.
Year 2000 Compliance
- --------------------
On May 29, 1999, the Company began using a new fully integrated system that
replaced its manufacturing and accounting software. The new software was
installed to improve the Company information efficiencies and bring the Company
into compliance for all critical applications affected by the year 2000.
The Company's critical applications including order entry, inventory, production
tracking, production planning, shipping, invoicing, and all accounting functions
are year 2000 compliant. The effect on earnings for the first two quarters of
1999 is $600,000 for training and data conversion. The Company estimates another
$200,000 will be spent in the second half of 1999 for report modifications,
additional training, and enhancements.
The cost to bring the existing software into compliance for year 2000 is not
known as the Company planned to replace the software.
The Company has initiated discussions with its significant suppliers, large
customers and financial institutions to ensure that those parties have
appropriate plans to remedy year 2000 issues where their systems interface with
the Company's systems or otherwise impact its operations. The Company will
assess the extent to which its operations are vulnerable should those
organizations fail to remedy properly their computer systems. While the Company
believes its planning efforts are adequate to address its Year 2000 concerns,
there can be no guarantee that the systems of other companies on which the
Company's systems and operations rely, will be converted on a timely basis and
will not have a material effect on the Company. The Company has alternate or
substitute sources for major raw material, gas, and fuel oil.
The Company believes the worst case scenario would occur if the Company's
electrical utilities were interrupted. The Company has no alternate source or
substitute for electricity, and any interruption would materially affect the
Company.
