                        INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS' REPORT

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of Donnkenny, Inc.

We have reviewed the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Donnkenny, Inc.
and subsidiaries as of March 31, 1999, the related consolidated statements of
operations and cash flows for the three-month periods ended March 31, 1999 and
1998. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's
management.

We conducted our review in accordance with standards established by the
American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. A review of interim
financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures to
financial data and of making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and
accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted
in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, the objective of
which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken
as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.

Based on our review, we are not aware of any material modifications that should
be made to such consolidated financial statements for them to be in conformity
with generally accepted accounting principles.

We have previously audited, in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards, the consolidated balance sheet of Donnkenny, Inc. and subsidiaries
as of December 31, 1998, and the related consolidated statements of operations,
stockholders' equity, and cash flows for the year then ended (not presented
herein); and in our report dated March 19,1999 (March 29, 1999 as to note 15),
we expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements.
In our opinion, the information set forth in the accompanying consolidated
balance sheet as of December 31, 1998 is fairly stated, in all material
respects, in relation to the consolidated balance sheet from which it has been
derived.

NOTE 3 - DEBT

    In November 1998, the Company and its operating subsidiaries, Donnkenny
Apparel, MegaKnits, and Beldoch, entered into an Amended and Restated Credit
Facility (the "Amended Credit Facility") to, among other things, provide for
general working capital needs of the Company including letters of credit and to
extend the Amended Credit Facility to March 31, 2000. The Amended Credit
Facility was amended as follows: the total amount available under the Revolving
Credit Agreement is $75 million subject to an asset based borrowing formula,
with sublimits of $55 million for direct borrowings, $35 million for letters of
credit and certain overadvances. Outstanding borrowings under the Revolving
Credit agreement in excess of an allowable overadvance will bear interest at
the prime rate plus 3 1/2 %. The Revolving Credit Agreement also requires the
Company to pay certain letters of credit fees and unused commitment fees.
Advances and letters of credit will be limited to (i) up to 85% of eligible
accounts receivable plus (ii) up to 60% of eligible inventory, plus (iii) an
allowable overadvance. Proceeds from the sale of fixed assets and income tax
refunds are to be applied to reduce the overadvance facility. 

                                     IV-1

<PAGE>

    Collateral for the Credit Facility includes a first priority lien on all
accounts receivable, machinery, equipment, trademarks, intangibles and
inventory, a first mortgage on all real property and a pledge of the Company's
stock interest in the Company's operating subsidiaries, Donnkenny Apparel,
Beldoch, and Megaknits.

    The Credit Facility contains numerous financial and operational covenants,
including limitations on additional indebtedness, liens, dividends, stock
repurchases and capital expenditures. In addition, the Company is required to
maintain specified levels of tangible net worth and comply with a maximum
cumulative net loss test.

    As of March 31, 1999 and March 31, 1998, the borrowings under the Revolving
Credit Agreement amounted to $38.5 million and $31.1 million with an interest
rate of 10.25% and 10.0%, respectively.

    In March 1999, the Company entered into a Second Waiver and Amendment
Agreement to the Amended Credit Facility effective as of February 28, 1999 to
support the Company's 1999 business plan. Pursuant to this amendment, the
interest rate on borrowings (10.25% at March 31, 1999) was increased to 2 1/2%
above the prime rate and shall be further increased by 1/8 of 1% on each of
July 1, 1999, August 1, 1999 and September 1, 1999; and the applicable
percentage shall be increased by 1/4 of 1% on the first day of each month
thereafter, commencing October 1, 1999. A fee of $150,000 is payable on June
30, 1999.

    Other debt consists of a secured term loan that was entered into on June
30, 1998 in the amount of $483. As of March 31, 1999 the principal balance of
this loan amounted to $373. The interest rate is fixed at 8.75% and the loan
requires monthly principal and interest payments of $15 through June 2001.
Software, machinery and equipment secure this obligation.

NOTE 4 - STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY

    The Company issued 200,000 options to purchase common stock at the fair
market value on the date of grant to certain key employees during the quarter
ended March 31, 1999, which will become exercisable on various dates commencing
March 2, 2000 through the year 2004.

NOTE 5 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

a.  In November 1996, ten designated class action lawsuits were commenced
    against the Company and certain former officers in the United States
    District Court for the Southern District of New York. The complaints in
    these actions allege various violations of the federal securities laws and
    seek an unspecified amount of monetary damages and other monetary relief.
    These actions have now been consolidated pursuant to court order and the
    plaintiffs filed a consolidated amended complaint. The Company is not
    presently in a position to determine the ultimate outcome of these legal
    proceedings or their impact on the financial condition of the Company.

                                      IV-2

<PAGE>

b.  In connection with contingent liabilities arising from the Company's
    alleged inaccuracies in the reporting of revenues and expenses for certain
    reporting periods, the Company has agreed to deposit $5,000 in an escrow
    account with the Company's insurance carrier over a three year period to
    help defray claims, if any. At March 31, 1999, $2,500 has been deposited
    and has been included in other assets.

c.  The Company is also a party to legal proceedings arising in the ordinary
    course of its business. Management believes that the ultimate resolution of
    these proceedings will not, in the aggregate, have a material adverse
    effect on financial condition, results of operations, liquidity or business
    of the Company.


NOTE 6 - SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

         On May 14, 1999, the Company and its operating subsidiaries signed a
    commitment letter to enter into a new credit agreement with CIT
    Group/Commercial Services to replace the existing $75 million Amended
    Credit Facility. The new three year agreement will provide the Company with
    a $75 million facility comprised of a $72 million revolver with sublimits
    up to $52 million for direct borrowings, $35 million for letters of credit
    and certain overadvances and a $3 million term loan.

         The new credit agreement will bear interest at the prime rate plus one 
    half percent. The new credit agreement will provide for advances of (i) up 
    to 90% of eligible accounts receivable plus (ii) up to 60% of eligible
    inventory plus (iii) up to 25% of eligible WIP up to a maximum of $2
    million, plus (iv) allowable overadvances.

         The Company expects to close the new credit agreement within the next
    60 days.

          MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
                           AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

COMPARISON OF QUARTERS ENDED MARCH 31, 1999, AND MARCH 31, 1998

         Net sales decreased by $1.5 million, or 2.8% from $52.5 million in the
first quarter of fiscal 1998 to $51.0 million in the first quarter of fiscal
1999. The decrease in the Company's net sales was primarily due to a $1.6
million decrease in sales of License Character products as a result of the
Company's exiting these businesses with all other labels netting to an increase
of $0.1 million.

         Gross profit for the first quarter of fiscal 1999 was $12.0 million,
or 23.6% of net sales, compared to $13.0 million, or 24.7% of net sales, during
the first quarter of fiscal 1998. The decrease in gross profit in dollars and
as a percentage of net sales was primarily attributable to the Company's
reduced sales from exiting the Licensed Character business in fiscal 1998 and
lower margins from the Donnkenny Apparel label.

         Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased from $10.0
million in the first quarter of fiscal 1998 to $9.3 million in the first
quarter of fiscal 1999. As a percentage of net sales, these expenses decreased
from 19.0% in the first quarter of fiscal 1998 to 18.2% in the first quarter of
fiscal 1999. The decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses was
due primarily to lower commissions and synergies created in combining certain
business functions, which allowed for reductions in headcount. These reductions
were partially offset by higher distribution costs as a result of increased
costs associated with the Company's customers requirements for "Floor Ready"
merchandise.

         Net interest expense increased from $0.7 million during the first
quarter of fiscal 1998 to $0.8 million during the first quarter of fiscal 1999.
The increase was primarily the result of $0.1 million of interest income from
income tax refunds in the first quarter of 1998 that was offset against $0.8
million of interest expense.

         The provision for income taxes decreased from $0.9 million in the
first quarter of fiscal 1998 to $0.1 million in the first quarter of fiscal
1999. In the first quarter of fiscal 1999, the provision reflects state and
local taxes and the usage of net operating loss carry forwards.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

         The Company's liquidity requirements arise from the funding of working
capital needs, primarily accounts receivable and the interest and principal
payments related to certain indebtedness. The Company's borrowing requirements
for working capital fluctuate throughout the year.

         Capital expenditures were $0.1 million, primarily for upgrading
computer systems during the first quarter of fiscal 1999 compared to $0.8
million in the first quarter of fiscal 1998. The

                                      V-1

<PAGE>

Company has committed to spend an additional $0.5 million in fiscal 1999 for
upgrading computer systems to increase efficiencies as part of the Company's
system upgrade plan.

         In April 1997 the Company entered into an amended Credit Facility (the
"Credit Facility") to, among other things, include the Company's operating
subsidiaries Donnkenny Apparel, MegaKnits and Beldoch, as borrowers. The Credit
Facility consisted of a Term Loan, a Revolving Credit Agreement, and a
Factoring Agreement. The purpose of the Credit Facility was for general working
capital purposes including the issuance of letters of credit. In April 1997,
the Company also entered into a Factoring Agreement with CIT. The Factoring
Agreement provides for a factoring commission equal to 0.45% of the gross
amount of sales, plus certain customary surcharges. An additional fee of 0.20%
was paid upon the conversion to a factored receivable arrangement.

         In November 1998, the Company and its operating subsidiaries,
Donnkenny Apparel, MegaKnits, and Beldoch, entered into an Amended and Restated
Credit Facility (the "Amended Credit Facility") to, among other things, provide
for general working capital needs of the Company including letters of credit
and to extend the Amended Credit Facility to March 31, 2000. The Amended Credit
Facility was amended as follows: the total amount available under the Revolving
Credit Agreement is $75 million subject to an asset based borrowing formula,
with sublimits of $55 million for direct borrowings, $35 million for letters of
credit and certain overadvances. Outstanding borrowings under the Revolving
Credit agreement in excess of an allowable overadvance will bear interest at
the prime rate plus 3 1/2 %. The Revolving Credit Agreement also requires the
Company to pay certain letters of credit fees and unused commitment fees.
Advances and letters of credit will be limited to (i) up to 85% of eligible
accounts receivable plus (ii) up to 60% of eligible inventory, plus (iii) an
allowable overadvance. Proceeds from the sale of fixed assets and income tax
refunds are to be applied to reduce the overadvance facility.

         As of March 31, 1999, borrowings under the Revolving Credit Agreement
amounted to $38.5 million compared to $31.1 million as of March 31, 1998.

         Collateral for the Credit Facility includes a first priority lien on
all accounts receivable, machinery, equipment, trademarks, intangibles and
inventory, a first mortgage on all real property and a pledge of the Company's
stock interest in the Company's operating subsidiaries, Donnkenny Apparel,
Beldoch, and Megaknits.

         The Credit Facility contains numerous financial and operational
covenants, including limitations on additional indebtedness, liens, dividends,
stock repurchases and capital expenditures. In addition, the Company is
required to maintain specified levels of tangible net worth and comply with a
maximum cumulative net loss test.

         In March 1999, the Company entered into a Second Waiver and Amendment
Agreement to the Amended Credit Facility effective as of February 28, 1999 to
support the Company's 1999 business plan. Pursuant to this amendment, the
interest rate on borrowings (10.25% at March 31, 1999) was increased to 2 1/2%
above the prime rate and shall be further increased by 1/8 of 1%

                                      V-2

<PAGE>

on each of July 1, 1999, August 1, 1999 and September 1, 1999; and the
applicable percentage shall be increased by 1/4 of 1% on the first day of each
month thereafter, commencing October 1, 1999. A fee of $150,000 is payable on
June 30, 1999.

         On May 14, 1999, the Company and its operating subsidiaries signed a
commitment letter to enter into a new credit agreement with CIT
Group/Commercial Services to replace the existing $75 million Amended Credit
Facility. The new three year agreement will provide the Company with a $75
million facility comprised of a $72 million revolver with sublimits up to $52
million for direct borrowings, $35 million for letters of credit and certain
overadvances and a $3 million term loan. The new credit agreement will bear
interest at the prime rate plus one half percent. The new credit agreement will 
provide for advances of (i) up to 90% of eligible accounts receivable plus (ii)
up to 60% of eligible inventory plus (iii) up to 25% of eligible WIP up to a
maximum of $2 million, plus (iv) allowable overadvances. The Company expects to
close the new credit agreement within the next 60 days.

         During the first quarter of fiscal 1999, the Company's operating
activities used cash principally as a result of increases in accounts
receivable and other non-current assets partially offset by decreases in
inventory and increases in accounts payable. During the first quarter of fiscal
1998, the Company's operating activities used cash principally as a result of
increases in accounts receivable and decreases in accrued expenses partially
offset by decreases in inventories. Cash provided by investing activities in
the first quarter of fiscal 1999 amounted to $1.2 million, primarily as the
result of the sale of a closed Virginia manufacturing facility ($1.1 million)
and a manufacturing unit in New York ($0.2 million) partially offset by $0.1
million relating to the upgrades in the Company's computer systems. In the
first quarter of fiscal 1998 cash used in investing activities amounted to $0.8
million relating to the upgrades in the computer systems. Cash provided by
financing activities in the first quarter of fiscal 1999 amounted to $6.8
million, which represented net borrowings under the Revolving Credit Agreement.
Cash provided by financing activities in the first quarter of fiscal 1998
amounted to $8.1 million, which primarily consisted of repayments of $1.5
million on the Term Loan and borrowings under the Revolving Credit Agreement of
$9.6 million.

         The company believes that cash flows from operations and amounts
available under the Revolving Credit Agreement will be sufficient for its needs
in the foreseeable future.

SEASONALITY OF BUSINESS AND FASHION RISK

         The Company's principal products are organized into seasonal lines for
resale at the retail level during the Spring, Summer, Transition, Fall and
Holiday Seasons. Typically, the Company's products are designed as much as one
year in advance and manufactured approximately one season in advance of the
related retail selling season. Accordingly, the success of the Company's
products is often dependent on the ability to successfully anticipate the needs
of retail customers and the tastes of the ultimate consumer up to a year prior
to the relevant selling season.

YEAR 2000 ISSUE

         The Company recognizes the need for, and is in the final phases of
implementation of, a comprehensive program intended to upgrade the operating
systems, including hardware and software, which should eliminate any issues
involving Year 2000 compliance. Certain of the Company's current software
systems, without modification, would be adversely affected by the inability of
the systems to appropriately interpret date information after 1999. As part of
the process of improving the Company's information systems to provide enhanced
support to all operating areas, the Company will upgrade to new financial and
operating systems. Such upgrade will provide for or eliminate any issues
involving Year 2000 compliance because all software to be implemented is
designed to be Year 2000 compliant. The Company anticipates that its cost for
such upgrade will be approximately $0.5 million for Fiscal 1999. The Company
also anticipates that it will complete its systems conversion in time to
accommodate Year 2000 issues. If the Company fails to complete such conversion
in a timely manner, such failure will have a material adverse effect on the
business, financial condition and results of operations of the Company. The
Company does not currently have complete information concerning Year 2000
compliance status of its suppliers and customers. The Company has initiated
communications with some of its significant customers, suppliers, and
contractors to determine their plans to remedy any Year 2000 issues that arise
in their business. The Company plans to complete this project prior to December
31, 1999; however, there can be no assurance that the systems of the other
companies on which the Company's systems rely will be timely converted and
would not have a material adverse effect on the Company's systems. The Company
is currently evaluating its non-information technology systems (embedded
technology) issues and is also developing its contingency plans for its
information technology systems and believes that it will complete both issues
in time to accommodate Year 2000 issues.

         If the Company is unsuccessful in completing remediation of
non-compliant systems, and if customers or vendors cannot rectify Year 2000
issues, the Company could incur additional costs, which may be substantial, to
develop alternative methods of managing its business and replacing
non-compliant equipment, and may experience delays in receipts from vendors,
shipments to customers, or payments to vendors. The Company has not yet
established a contingency plan in the event of non-compliance.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

         In June 1998, the FASB issued SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities", which establishes standards for the
accounting and reporting for derivative instruments and for hedging activities.
It requires that an entity recognize all derivatives as either assets or
liabilities in the statement of financial position and measure those
instruments at fair value. This statement is effective for all fiscal quarters
of fiscal years beginning after June 15, 1999. The Company has determined that
this statement will not have a significant impact on its financial statements
or disclosures, as it does not engage in derivative or hedging transactions.
