              GARAN, INCORPORATED AND SUBSIDIARIES
            MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
         FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

FINANCIAL CONDITION

At June 30, 1997, working capital was $61,543,000, a decrease of $14,224,000
from September 30, 1996, working capital of $75,767,000.  The decrease was
primarily a result of reinvesting short-term U.S. Government Securities into
higher-yielding long-term U.S. Government Securities, which are not included
in working capital.  Shareholders' equity at June 30, 1997, was $97,896,000,
or $19.30 book value per share, as compared to $96,141,000, or $18.96 book
value per share, at September 30, 1996.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Three and Nine Month Periods Ended June 30, 1997, and June 30, 1996.

Net sales for the third quarter of fiscal 1997 were $29,568,000 compared to
$37,218,000 for the same period last year.  Net earnings for the third quarter
were $1,833,000, equal to $0.36 per share, compared to $2,067,000, or $0.41
per share, last year.  The third quarter of fiscal 1996 included, approxi-

mately $9,500,000 in sales related to the Disney animated film "The Hunchback
of Notre Dame".  This was non-recurring business and accounts for the decline
in sales in the current quarter from the comparable quarter last year.

Net sales for the first nine months of fiscal 1997 were $98,172,000 compared
to $97,124,000 for the same period last year.  Net earnings for the nine month
period were $5,811,000, equal to $1.14 per share, compared to $4,410,000, or
$0.87 per share, for the same period last year.

Gross margin for the three month period ended June 30, 1997, was $7,480,000, 
or 25.3% of net sales, compared to $9,133,000, or 24.5% of net sales, for the 
comparable period last year.  Gross margin for the nine months ended June 30, 
1997, was $23,715,000, or 24.2% of net sales, compared to $21,582,000, or 
22.2% of net sales, for the comparable period last year.  The increase in 
gross margin was due primarily to improvements in manufacturing efficiency and 
absorption of overhead.

Selling and administrative expenses for the three months ended June 30, 1997,
were $5,095,000, or 17.2% of net sales, as compared to $6,265,000, or 16.8% of
net sales, for the comparable period last year.  The selling and administra-

tive expenses dollar cost decrease for the three-month period occurred in
royalty expenses.  Royalty expenses are variable and relate to sales volume of
sports and Disney licensed products.  The non-recurring business decline in
sales related to Disney animated films accounted for the decline in royalty
expense for the three-month period.  Selling and administrative expenses for
the nine-months ended June 30, 1997, were $16,068,000 or 16.4% of net sales,
as compared to $16,099,000, or 16.6% of net sales, for the comparable period
last year.  Selling and administrative expenses for the nine-month period
ended June 30, 1997, were comparable to the same period last year as a
decrease in royalty expenses related to sports and Disney animated films
licenses was offset by an increase in our information system costs.  These
increases are related to improvements to internal operating systems and
development and implementation of systems related customer service.
