1. Basis of presentation:
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have
been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for
interim financial information and the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01
of Regulation S-X of the Securities and Exchange Commission. 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 normal recurring accruals)
considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating
results for the 13 weeks ended February 26, 2000 are not necessarily indicative
of the results that may be expected for the entire fiscal year ending December
2, 2000. The balance sheet at November 27, 1999 has been derived from the
audited balance sheet at that date. 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 fiscal year ended November 27,
1999.

4. Inventories:
The Company's inventories are valued at the lower of cost or market. Cost is
determined principally by the last-in, first-out (LIFO) method with the
remainder being determined by the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method. Because the
inventory valuation under the LIFO method is based upon an annual determination
of inventory levels and costs as of the fiscal year-end, the interim LIFO
calculations are based on management's estimates of expected year-end inventory
levels and costs.

6. Segment Information:
The Company's chief operating decision-maker is considered to be the
Chief Executive Officer (CEO). The Company's CEO evaluates both consolidated and
disaggregated financial information in deciding how to allocate resources and
assess performance. The Company has identified three reportable segments based
upon the primary markets it serves: Apparel Fabrics, Home Fashions and
Accessories and Other.
Apparel Fabrics: The Company is a major manufacturer of warp and circular knit
fabrics and raschel laces. The Company's textile fabrics are sold to a wide
variety of manufacturers of ready-to-wear and intimate apparel for men, women,
and children, including dresses and sportswear, children's sleepwear,
activewear, swimwear, and recreational apparel.
Home Fashions and Accessories: The Company uses its own textile fabrics
internally to produce 100% cotton jersey sheets, flannel and satin sheets, as
well as blankets, comforters and other bedding products which the Company sells
to department and specialty stores, catalogues and mail order companies as well
as airlines and healthcare institutions. The Company's textile fabrics are also
sold to manufacturers of home furnishings.
Other: The Company produces a line of ultrasonically, hot melt adhesive, flame
and adhesive bonded products for apparel, environmental, health care, industrial
and consumer markets. The Company's textile fabrics are sold to manufacturers of
industrial fabrics and upholstery fabrics for residential and contact markets.
The Company also sells retail over-the-counter fabrics.
The Company neither allocates to the segments nor bases segment
decisions on the following:
- Interest and dividend income
- Interest expense
- Net gain on investment securities
- Income tax expense or benefit
Many of the Company's assets are used by multiple segments. While
certain assets such as Inventory and Property, Plant and Equipment are
identifiable by segment, an allocation of the substantial remaining assets is
not meaningful.

7. Comprehensive Income (Loss):
Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) is comprised of
unrealized holding gain (loss) related to available-for-sale securities.
Comprehensive income (loss) was $65,000 and ($1,927,000) for the quarter ended
February 26, 2000 and February 27, 1999, respectively.
8. Contingencies:
A number of claims and lawsuits seeking unspecified damages and other
relief are pending against the Company. It is impossible at this time for the
Company to predict with any certainty the outcome of such litigation. However,
management is of the opinion based upon information presently available, that it
is unlikely that any liability, to the extent not provided for through insurance
or otherwise, would be material in relation to the Company's consolidated
financial position.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Results of Operations
First Quarter
Fiscal 2000 Compared to Fiscal 1999
- -----------------------------------
Net sales for the first quarter of fiscal 2000 were $28,339,000 as
compared to $29,007,000 in the similar 1999 period, a decrease of $668,000 or
2.3%. Business conditions within the domestic textile industry remained
depressed, and the Company continued to experience competitive market
conditions, both domestic and foreign. U.S. firms are forced to compete against
a flood of cheap imports and falling demand for U.S. goods overseas. These
factors have continued to exert downward pressure on the Company's sales levels.
Certain of the Company's products enjoyed stronger customer demand.
Overall Company gross margins for the quarter improved to 8.6% from
0.8% last year. Margins were aided by improved product mix and lower cost
structures. The Company has intensified its cost control programs. In the 1999
quarter, a reduction in LIFO reserves arising from lower average FIFO cost
levels benefited margins in the amount of $1,095,000. In the current quarter, no
adjustments to LIFO inventory reserves were required.
Selling, general and administrative expenses in the current quarter
decreased by $537,000, or 13.9%. Reduced expenses related primarily to
incentive-based compensation, lower related salaries and salesmen commissions.
As a percentage of sales, such costs decreased to 11.8% from 13.4%.
14
<PAGE>
The effective income tax rate for the current quarter was 21.2% as
against a tax benefit in the comparative 1999 period.
As a result of these factors, quarterly net income was $304,000,
compared to net loss of $(1,815,000) in last year's first quarter.
For the current quarter, basic and diluted earnings per share were
$0.06 compared to basic and diluted losses of $(0.33) per share in last years'
first quarter.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
- -------------------------------
Operating activities provided cash of $4,216,000 and $3,557,000, for
the 13 weeks ended February 26, 2000 and February 27, 1999 respectively. Of this
increase, $2,119,000 relates to comparative changes in net income, $1,023,000 in
other current assets and $2,895,000 to accounts payable, accruals and other
liabilities. These increases were offset by reductions of $4,038,000 in accounts
receivable and $1,292,000 in inventories.
Capital expenditures for the quarter were approximately $450,000
compared to approximately $1.5 million in the comparative 1999 first quarter.
During the quarter, the Company repurchased 50,039 shares of its common
stock at an average price of $11.05. The Company intends to continue to purchase
its shares of common stock from time-to-time, as market conditions warrant and
price criteria are met.
The Company declared a quarterly dividend of $0.175 per share, payable
April 21, 2000, to stockholders of record as of March 15, 2000.
Stockholders' equity was $129,368,000 ($24.16 book value per share) at
February 26, 2000, as compared to $130,788,000,
15
<PAGE>
($24.20 book value per share) at the previous fiscal year-end November 27, 1999,
and $131,522,000 ($24.29 book value per share) at the end of the comparative
1999 first quarter.
Management believes that the current financial position of the company
is more than adequate to internally fund any future expenditures to maintain,
modernize and expand its manufacturing facilities, and pay dividends.
Pending Accounting Pronouncements
- ---------------------------------
In June 1998, the FASB issued FAS 133, "Accounting for Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities", effective for years beginning after June
15, 1999. The effective date has been delayed to June 15, 2000, the Company's
fiscal year 2001, as a result of the FASB's issuance in August 1999 of FAS 137,
"Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities - Deferral of the
Effective date of FASB Statement No. 133". FAS 133 requires that all derivatives
be recorded on the balance sheet at fair value. Derivatives that are not hedges
must be adjusted to fair value through income. If the derivative is a hedge,
depending on the nature of the hedge, changes in the fair value of derivatives
are either offset against the change in the fair value of assets, liabilities,
or firm commitments through earnings or recognized in other comprehensive income
until the hedged item is recognized in earnings. The ineffective portion of a
derivative's change in fair value will be immediately recognized in earnings.
The Company has not yet determined what the effect of FAS 133 will be on the
earnings and financial position of the Company.
