                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                         FOR THE TWENTY-SIX WEEKS ENDED

                                   (UNAUDITED)



1.     FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

       The consolidated balance sheet as of August 2, 1997 and the consolidated
statements of operations for the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended August 2,
1997 and August 2, 1996, respectively, and the consolidated statements of cash
flows for the twenty-six weeks ended August 2, 1997 and August 2, 1996 have been
prepared by Ithaca Industries, Inc. (the "Company") without audit. In the
opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring
accruals) necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position of the
Company at August 2, 1997 and the results of operations for the thirteen and
twenty-six weeks ended August 2, 1997 and August 2, 1996, respectively, and the
statements of cash flows for the twenty-six weeks ended August 2, 1997 and
August 2, 1996 have been made on a consistent basis.

       The Company adopted "fresh-start reporting" and reflected the effects of
such adoption in the consolidated financial statements as of November 22, 1996,
the date assumed for financial reporting purposes of the Company's emergence
from Chapter 11. The post-confirmation consolidated financial statements have
been separated from the preconfirmation prior period amounts by a bold line to
signify that the post-confirmation consolidated financial statements are those
of a new reporting entity and have been prepared on a basis not comparable to
prior periods.

       Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in
financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles have been condensed or omitted. It is suggested that these financial
statements be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and
notes thereto for the year ended February 1, 1997 and February 2, 1996 included
in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K as filed with the Securities and
Exchange Commission on May 2, 1997.

       The results of operations for the periods presented are not necessarily
indicative of the operating results for the full year.

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

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

                  THIRTEEN WEEKS ENDED AUGUST 2, 1997 COMPARED
                    WITH THIRTEEN WEEKS ENDED AUGUST 2, 1996

        Net sales decreased from $78.9 million for the thirteen weeks ended
August 2, 1996 to $60.9 million (22.8%) for the thirteen weeks ended August 2,
1997. The sales decline reflected, in part, the reduction in sales of
discontinued products, which were approximately $9.7 million in the thirteen
weeks ended August 2, 1996 compared to $1.4 million in the thirteen weeks ended
August 2, 1997. Sales of continuing products were lower in the current period
reflecting lower sales to the Company's major customers.

     The gross profit margin increased for the second quarter fiscal 1998 to
16.0% from 14.8% for the comparable period last year. The increase in gross
profit margin is due to selling a lower proportion of discontinued goods this
year which have comparatively lower gross profit margins than continuing
products, offset in part by higher manufacturing costs related to lower
production volume in the current period versus the comparable period last year.

     Selling, general and administrative expenses for the second quarter of
fiscal 1998 decreased to $6.4 million from $7.6 million (16.0%) last year
excluding the one-time benefit in the prior year from the recovery of writedowns
previously recorded.

     Operating profit decreased to $3.4 million for the second quarter fiscal
1998 from $7.0 million for the comparable period last year due primarily to the
recovery of previous writedowns of $3.0 million included in the prior year, as
well as the lower sales level in the current year.

     Interest expense for the thirteen weeks ended August 2, 1997 of $1.8
million was 72.0% below the $6.3 million incurred in the second quarter of
fiscal 1997. The lower interest expense was due to the retirement of $125
million of senior subordinated notes pursuant to the Company's Plan of
Reorganization dated August 29, 1996 and lower average bank borrowings,
partially offset by higher interest rates on the Company's bank borrowings.

                 TWENTY-SIX WEEKS ENDED AUGUST 2, 1997 COMPARED
                   WITH TWENTY-SIX WEEKS ENDED AUGUST 2, 1996

     Net sales decreased from $176.5 million for the twenty-six weeks ended
August 2, 1996 to $119.7 million (32.2%) for the twenty-six weeks ended August
2, 1997. The sales decline reflected, in part, the reduction in sales of
discontinued products, which were approximately $27.2 million in the twenty-six
weeks ended August 2, 1996 compared to $3.6 million in the twenty-six weeks
ended August 2, 1997. Sales of continuing products were lower in the current
period reflecting lower sales to the Company's major customers.

     The gross profit margin increased for the first half of fiscal 1998 to
15.0% from 13.8% for the comparable period last year. The increase in gross
profit margin is due to selling a lower proportion of discontinued goods this
year which have comparatively lower gross profit margins than continuing
products, offset in part by higher manufacturing costs related to lower
production volume in the current period versus the comparable period last year.

     Selling, general and administrative expenses for the first half of fiscal
1998 decreased to $13.2 million from $16.0 million (17.6%) last year excluding
the one-time benefit in the prior year from the recovery of writedowns
previously recorded.

     Operating profit decreased to $4.8 million for the first half of fiscal
1998 from $11.4 million for the comparable period last year due to the asset
writedown recovery of $3.0 million included in the prior year, and the lower
sales level in the current year.

     Interest expense for the twenty-six weeks ended August 2, 1997 of $3.5
million was 72.8% below the $12.9 million incurred in the first half of fiscal
1997. The lower interest expense was due to the retirement of $125 million of
senior subordinated notes pursuant to the Company's Plan of Reorganization dated
August 29, 1996 and lower average bank borrowings, partially offset by higher
interest rates on the Company's bank borrowings.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

     The Company's existing Credit Agreement was amended and restated on
December 16, 1996. As of that date, the Credit Agreement provides for a term
loan facility ("Term Loan") of $55.0 million and a revolving loan facility of
$77.2 million. The revolving loan facility includes a sub-limit of $25.0 million
for the issuance of letters of credit. For thirty-day periods beginning in
December and May of each year, commitments under the revolving loan facility are
reduced to $63.0 million and $68.0 million, respectively, (the "Clean-Down
Periods"). As previously reported, the Credit Agreement was further amended on
August 22, 1997 to modify certain financial covenants to more closely reflect
the Company's current operating levels. As previously reported, the Company has
been unable to achieve the level of sales revenue set forth in the Company's
Business Plan. In addition the amendment provides for an additional clean-down
period during January of each year under which commitments under the revolving
loan facility, excluding letters of credit, are reduced to $20 million. As of
September 5, 1997, the Company had $41.9 million of Term Loans outstanding,
$22.3 million of borrowings under its revolving loan facility, and $6.6 million
outstanding letters of credit. The Company at September 5, 1997 had $23.3
million of additional borrowing capacity under its revolving loan facility.

     The Company's cash on hand as of August 2, 1997 was $1.5 million compared
to $0.1 million cash on hand at February 1, 1997.
