the six month period ended September 30, 1995.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITIONS
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Results of Operations
Six Months Ended September 30, 1996 and 1995
Total revenues for the six months ended September 30, 1996 were $432,294 as
compared to $394,531 for the corresponding period ended September 30, 1995. This
increase is primarily attributable to an increase in reported shipments of the
Company's No Excuses footwear licensee.
Net income for the six months ended September 30, 1996 was $75,532 or $.01
per share of Common Stock, as compared to net income of $112,062 or $.02 per
share of Common Stock, for the six months ended September 30, 1995. This
decrease in net income is principally due to the equity in losses of its
affiliate, Candie's, Inc. for the period.
Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased from $404,425 for
the six months ended September 30, 1995 to $321,408 for the six months ended
September 30, 1996. This decrease was primarily attributable to decreases in
advertising, royalty and professional fee expenses.
Interest expense for the six months ended September 30, 1996 was $9,356 as
compared to $14,915 for the six months ended September 30, 1995. This decrease
is due to a reduction in notes payable.
Three Months Ended September 30, 1996 and 1995
Total revenues for the three months ended September 30, 1996 were $274,170
as compared to $241,954 for the corresponding period ended September 30, 1995.
This increase is primarily attributable to an increase in reported shipments of
the Company's footwear licensee.
Net income for the three months ended September 30, 1996 was $41,116 or
$.01 per share of Common Stock, as compared to net income of $164,549 or $.03
per share of Common Stock, for the three months ended September 30, 1995. This
decrease in net income is principally due to the losses in the equity of the
investment in Candie's, Inc. during the period.
Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased from $200,952 for
the three months ended September 30, 1995 to $165,971 for the three months ended
September 30, 1996. This decrease was primarily attributable to decreased
professional fees during the period.
Interest expense for the three months ended September 30, 1996 was $5,000
as compared to $8,040 for the three months ended September 30 1995. This
decrease is due to a reduction in notes payable.
Page 10
Liquidity and Capital Resources
At September 30, 1996 the Company had working capital of $285,360 as
compared to working capital of $79,944 at March 31, 1996. This increase in
working capital arose primarily as a result of net income for the period.
The Company satisfies its present working capital and other financial needs
from royalties earned on its licensing agreements and the proceeds from the sale
of certain licensing rights. Management of the Company believes that the
Company will generate sufficient cash flow for the next twelve months from its
current cash position and licensing fees as the sublicensor of the NO EXCUSES(R)
trademark.
Subsequent to September 30, 1996, the Company repurchased 70,000 shares of
the Company's common stock at an aggregate purchase price of $21,054. Of such
shares, 20,000 were repurchased in a private transaction and 50,000 shares were
repurchased in the open market.
