               Three Months Ended March 2, 1996 and March 4, 1995



(1)  Basis of presentation:

     The condensed financial statements included herein have been prepared by
the Company, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the
Securities and Exchange Commission. In the opinion of management, the
information furnished reflects all adjustments (consisting of only normal
recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the
interim periods. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included
in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and
regulations. The Company believes that the disclosures presented are adequate
for a fair presentation of the financial statements. It is suggested that these
condensed financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial
statements and the notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form
10-K for the fiscal year ended December 2, 1995.


(2)  Acquisition

         On December 19, 1995, Kleinert's, Inc., through its newly formed,
wholly-owned subsidiary, Kleinert's, Inc. of Florida, ("together, the Company"),
consummated a transaction (the "Pixie Acquisition") pursuant to which the
Company acquired substantially all of the assets of Pixie Playmates, Inc.
("Pixie") and Certified Sewing Services, Inc. ("Certified") two Florida
corporations, and all of the capital stock of Certified Apparel Services of
Honduras, Inc., S.A., a Honduran corporation ("CASH"). Pixie, Certified and
CASH, all of which were affiliated entities, are engaged in the manufacture and
sale of children's apparel. Concurrent with the Pixie Acquisition, the Company
entered into a three year lease agreement with the principal shareholder of
Pixie for the premises in which Pixie was conducting business. The Company
intends to continue manufacturing operations as was conducted by Pixie,
Certified and CASH prior to the Pixie Acquisition.

         In consideration for the assets of Pixie and Certified and the shares
of CASH, the Company paid an aggregate purchase price of $4,650,000 in cash, of
which $500,000 has been retained by the Company pending confirmation of
inventory quantities and completion of an audit of CASH. The purchase price was
financed by the Company through an amendment to its existing bank financing
agreement to provide for an additional term debt facility.

                                                                              9

         The acquisition has been accounted for using the purchase method and
accordingly, the results of operations are included in the Company's results
from the date of acquisition.

         The proforma unaudited results of operations for the three months ended
March 2, 1996 and March 4, 1995, assuming consummation of the purchase and
amendment of the term debt as of December 4, 1994 are as follows:

3.       Refinancing of Term Loan

         On February 28, 1996 the Company refinanced its existing term loan and
provided for an additional term debt facility of $4,650,000 to finance the
purchase of the Pixie assets. The term loan is in the form of an amended and
restated term loan note with the same bank as the original term loan. The total
borrowing at March 2, 1996 was $8,049,000 which is payable in quarterly
installments of $300,000 through September, 2002 with a final installment of
$249,000 due December 2002. The interest rate is based on LIBOR but has been
effectively fixed at 7.00% by an interest rate swap agreement with the same
bank.


4.       Related Party Transactions

         On December 5, 1994 the Company loaned Scott Mills, Inc. ("Scott
Mills") $500,000. Scott Mills, formerly an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of
the Company, is the successor in interest to the Company's textile division, the
assets of which were transferred to Scott Mills on November 27, 1993. The loan
bears interest, payable annually, at 8 1/2% per annum and the principal is due
in full on December 4, 1997. Scott Mills, which has operated independently of
the Company since November 27, 1993, continues to be a principal supplier of
fabric to the Company.

         The Company provides certain third party services on behalf of Scott
Mills, including data processing and account payable check processing functions
and business management services. As a consequence, the balance due the Company
fluctuates based on the timing of Scott Mills repayments to the Company for
disbursements made on behalf of Scott Mills. On December 1, 1995 the Company
executed a working capital agreement with Scott Mills that confirms Scott Mills'
obligations to the Company and provides to the Company a first lien and security
interest in substantially all of Scott Mills' assets to secure Scott Mills'
obligation to repay to the Company the loan balance due of $2,143,000 as of
March 2, 1996.

         In March 1995, the Company subleased knitting machines to Scott Mills
for a forty-five month term to be used to produce certain fabrics on behalf of
the Company. The terms of the sublease were reached at an arms length basis.

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

Results of Operations

         The Company's apparel business is highly seasonal. Consequently the
sales and operating results for the three months ended March 2, 1996 are not
necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the entire fiscal
year ending November 30, 1996.

         Net sales increased by $4,007,000 or 52% to $11,720,000 from $7,713,000
for the three months ended March 2, 1996 compared to the three months ended
March 4, 1995. Sales of products associated with the Pixie business accounted
for an approximately 26% increase and the remaining 26% increase related to
Kleinert's continuing business. Gross profit increased by $474,000 or 23%
primarily as a result of increased sales volume.

         Selling,  general and administrative  expenses increased 22% or
$257,000 primarily  reflecting expenses associated with the Pixie business.

         Interest expense in the first quarter of 1996 was $336,000 compared to
$269,000 in the first quarter of 1995 reflecting increased borrowing levels
associated with the Pixie acquisition.

         Net income increased 25% to $479,000 for the first quarter of 1996 when
compared to $382,000 for the first quarter of 1995. Approximately 16% of the
increase was attributable to the basic Kleinert's business, while the Pixie
acquisition accounted for the balance.

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



LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

         Net cash provided by operating activities decreased $1,175,000 from
$4,022,000 in the first quarter of 1995 to $2,847,000 in the first quarter of
1996. This reflected lower decreases in accounts receivable when comparing the
1996 first quarter to the 1995 quarter. The funds provided were used primarily
to pay down balances on the Company's revolving line-of-credit agreements.

         In consideration for the assets of Pixie and Certified and the shares
of CASH, the Company paid an aggregate purchase price of $4,650,000 in cash, of
which $500,000 has been retained by the Company pending confirmation of
inventory quantities and completion of an audit of CASH.

                  On February 28, 1996 the Company refinanced its existing term
loan and provided for an additional term debt facility of $4,650,000 to finance
the purchase of the Pixie assets. The term loan is in the form of an amended and
restated term loan note with the same bank as the original term loan. The total
borrowing at March 2, 1996 was $8,049,000 which is payable in quarterly
installments of $300,000 through September, 2002 with a final installment of
$249,000 due December 2002. The interest rate is based on LIBOR but has been
effectively fixed at 7.00% by an interest rate swap agreement with the same
bank.

         It is expected that the acquisition will enhance the Company's earnings
and, ultimately, its cash flows; however, due to the seasonality of the
Company's business, additional working capital requirements are anticipated in
periods when production levels exceed sales.

         The Company uses its short-term borrowings to build inventory levels
for shipment in the fall season.

         The Company believes that cash flow generated by operations, together
with amounts available under its existing credit arrangements, should be
sufficient to fund its working capital needs in fiscal year 1996 and for the
future.
