Note 3 - Net Income (Loss) Per Common Share
Basic earnings per share amounts have been computed using the weighted average
number of common shares outstanding during each year. When applicable, diluted
earnings per share amounts are computed using the weighted average number of
common shares and the dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the
year.
Note 4 - Notes Payable
The Company's loan agreement, which expires on May 31, 2002, provides for a
maximum line of credit in amounts that range from $45 million to $65 million
during each year of the loan term. The amounts available include direct
borrowings that range from $30 million to $50 million during each year of the
loan term. The balance of the credit line may be used for letters of credit. All
amounts available for borrowing are subject to borrowing base formulas and
overadvances specified in the agreement. As of July 31, 1999, direct borrowings
of $26.1 million were included in Notes Payable.
-7-
<PAGE>
<PAGE>
The BET Design Studio, LLC joint venture has an asset-based credit facility with
The CIT Group. Direct borrowings bear interest at the prevailing prime rate plus
50 basis points (8.75% at September 1, 1999). As of July 31, 1999, $784,000 of
direct borrowings were included in Notes Payable. To support the requirement for
overadvances which occur when the available collateral is not sufficient to
support the level of direct bank debt and letters of credit opened to pay for
product, both partners have opened stand-by letters of credit in the amount of
$750,000 under which The CIT Group is the beneficiary.
To fund additional marketing and advertising expenditures, Black Entertainment
Television, Inc. ("BET") has advanced $600,000 under a lending agreement to BET
Design Studio, LLC. Borrowings under this agreement bear interest at 12.0%
during the first twelve months of the agreement and 14% thereafter. The
agreement also grants BET, Inc. the right after one year to convert the
principal balance to a 10% ownership interest. If exercised, this would increase
BET Holdings, Inc.'s ownership interest in BET Design Studio, LLC to 59.9%, with
a corresponding decrease in the Company's ownership interest to 40.1%.
Notes payable also includes foreign notes payable by PT Balihides, the Company's
Indonesian subsidiary. The foreign notes payable represent maximum borrowings as
of July 31, 1999 under a line of credit of approximately $1.5 million with an
Indonesian bank.
Note 5 - Nonrecurring Charges
Included in the original 1995 non-recurring charge was approximately $2.0
million to sell or liquidate a factory located in Indonesia. During the year
ended January 31, 1998, the Company applied approximately $1.6 million of the
reserve as a reduction of the Indonesian property, plant and equipment, since
the Company cannot assure any recoveries in connection with its disposition. In
December 1997, the factory began to manufacture luggage, and as a result, the
Company has since discontinued its plan to sell or liquidate the factory.
However, due to the political and economic instability being experienced in
Indonesia, management determined that the $462,000 nonrecurring balance with
respect to its Indonesian assets should be maintained. The remaining
nonrecurring balance ($359,000) relates to the reserve associated with the
closure of the Company's domestic factory that was completed by January 31,
1995. Based on current estimates, management believes that existing accruals are
adequate. Other long-term liabilities include $272,000 and $317,000 of the above
described nonrecurring charges at July 31, 1999 and January 31, 1999,
respectively.
The status of the provision at the end of the period was:

Item 2 Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations.
Statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q concerning the Company's
business outlook or future economic performance; anticipated revenues, expenses
or other financial items; product introductions and plans and objectives related
thereto; and statements concerning assumptions made or expectations as to any
future events, conditions, performance or other matter, are "forward-looking
statements" as that term is defined under the Federal securities laws.
Forward-looking statements are subject to risks, uncertainties and other factors
which could cause actual results to differ materially from those stated in such
statements. Such risks, uncertainties and factors include, but are not limited
to, reliance on foreign manufacturers, the nature of the apparel industry,
including changing consumer demand and tastes, seasonality, customer acceptance
of new products, the impact of competitive products and pricing, dependence on
existing management, general economic conditions, as well as other risks
detailed in the Company's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission,
including this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Net sales for the three months ended July 31, 1999 were $33.2 million compared
to $35.7 million for the same period last year. The decrease in net sales during
the quarter was primarily attributable to a decrease in sales of non-licensed
apparel ($4.1 million), partially offset by an increase in sales of licensed
apparel ($1.6 million). For the six months ended July 31, 1999, net sales were
$41.7 million compared to $40.7 million for the same period in the prior year.
The increase in net sales in the six month period was also attributable to an
increase in sales of licensed apparel ($4.9 million), partially offset by a
decrease in sales of non-licensed apparel ($3.9 million). The Company expects
that sales of licensed apparel will continue to increase as a percentage of net
sales.
Gross profit was $9.5 million for the three months ended July 31, 1999, compared
to $9.4 million in the same period last year. Gross profit as a percentage of
net sales was 28.5% for the three months ended July 31, 1999 compared to 26.3%
for the same period last year. For the six months ended July 31, 1999, gross
profit was $10.3 million, or 24.7% of net sales, compared to $9.1 million, or
22.4%, of net sales for the same period last year. As a percentage of net sales,
gross profit of licensed apparel increased due to increased sales of
higher-margin products. Gross profit of non-licensed apparel as a percentage of
net sales increased due to lower sales of prior season merchandise.
Selling, general and administrative expenses for the three months ended July 31,
1999 were $6.8 million compared to $6.7 million in the three months ended July
31, 1998. For the six months ended July 31, 1999, selling, general and
administrative expenses were $13.7 million compared to $13.1 million for the
same period last year. BET Design Studio incurred expenses of $1.7 million in
the six months ended July 31, 1999, an increase of $500,000 over the same period
in the prior year. Excluding BET Design Studio expenses, selling, general and
administrative expenses were 28.7% of net sales in the six months ended July 31,
1999 compared to 29.3% in the same period in the prior year. BET Design Studio
expenses increased primarily in the area of advertising, in connection with the
introduction of new marketing programs. Excluding BET Design Studio expenses,
selling, general and administrative expenses for the three and six month periods
ended July 31, 1999 were basically unchanged. The BET Design Studio expenses
allocable to the other shareholder (approximately one-half of these expenses)
are reflected in "Minority interest in loss of joint venture".

<PAGE>
<PAGE>
Interest expense and finance charges for the three months ended July 31, 1999
were $430,000 compared to $659,000 in the comparable period last year. For the
six months ended July 31, 1999, interest expense was $528,000 compared to
$822,000 in the same period in the prior year. The decrease in interest expense
results from the Company's ability to utilize cash generated from operations
rather than from domestic borrowings to fund working capital requirements for a
longer duration in the current fiscal year (3 months) than in the comparable
period of the prior year (1.3 months).
Income taxes of $1.1 million reflect an effective tax rate of 40.0% for the
three months ended July 31, 1999 compared to income taxes of $1.0 million (same
effective tax rate) in the comparable period in the prior year. For the six
months ended July 31, 1999, the income tax benefit of $1.2 million also reflects
an effective tax rate of 40.0%, compared to an income tax benefit of $1.7
million (same effective tax rate) in the same period last year.
For the three months ended July 31, 1999 the Company had net income of $1.6
million, or $.24 per diluted share, compared to net income of $1.4 million, or
$.20 per diluted share, for the comparable period in the prior year. Net income
per share increased primarily as the result of the foregoing factors. In
addition, weighted average shares outstanding were 6.8 million during the three
months ended July 31, 1999, compared to 7.1 million during the same period of
the prior year. For the six months ended July 31, 1999, the Company had a net
loss of $1.8 million, or $.27 per share, compared to a net loss of $2.5 million,
or $.39 per share, for the same period in the prior year.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Company's loan agreement, which expires on May 31, 2002, provides for a
maximum line of credit in amounts that range from $45 million to $65 million
during each year of the loan term. The amounts available include direct
borrowings that range from $30 million to $50 million during each year of the
loan term. The balance of the credit line may be used for letters of credit. All
amounts available for borrowing are subject to borrowing base formulas and
overadvances specified in the agreement.
Direct borrowings bear interest at the agent's prime rate (8.25% as of September
1, 1999) or LIBOR plus 250 basis points (7.875% at September 1, 1999) at the
election of the Company. All borrowings are collateralized by the assets of the
Company. The loan agreement requires the Company, among other covenants, to
maintain certain earnings and tangible net worth levels, and prohibits the
payment of cash dividends. As of July 31, 1999, direct borrowings amounted to
$26.1 million, and contingent liability under open letters of credit were
approximately $18.5 million. The amount borrowed under the line of credit varies
based upon the Company's seasonal requirements.
In February 1997, the Company formed a joint venture with Black Entertainment
Television (BET) to provide a BET-branded clothing and accessory line. The joint
venture agreement provides for the Company and BET each to make an initial
capital contribution in the amount of $1.0 million. In addition, the agreement
provides for the Company and BET each to make an additional capital contribution
of up to $3.5 million. As of July 31, 1999, BET and the Company have each
contributed $2.25 million to this joint venture. During August 1999, BET and the
Company each contributed an additional $250,000 to the joint venture.

The BET Design Studio, LLC joint venture has an asset-based credit facility with
The CIT Group. Direct borrowings bear interest at the prevailing prime rate plus
50 basis points (8.75% at September 1, 1999). As of July 31, 1999, there was
$784,000 of direct borrowings and $783,000 of contingent liability under open
letters of credit. To support the requirement for overadvances which occur when
the available collateral is not sufficient to support the level of direct bank
debt and letters of credit opened to pay for product, both partners have opened
stand-by letters of credit in the amount of $750,000 under which The CIT Group
is the beneficiary.
To fund the additional marketing and advertising expenditures previously
discussed, BET, Inc. has advanced $600,000 under a lending agreement to BET
Design Studio, LLC. Borrowings under this agreement bear interest at 12% during
the first twelve months of the agreement and 14% thereafter. The agreement also
grants BET, Inc. the right after one year to convert the principal balance to a
10% ownership interest. If exercised, this would increase BET Holdings, Inc.'s
ownership interest in BET Design Studio, LLC to 59.9%, with a corresponding
decrease in the Company's ownership interest to 40.1%.
PT Balihides, the Company's Indonesian subsidiary, has a separate credit
facility with an Indonesian bank. The foreign notes payable represent maximum
borrowings as of July 31, 1999 under a line of credit of approximately $1.5
million.
YEAR 2000 COMPLIANCE
The Company believes that advanced information processing is essential to
maintaining its competitive position. The Company participates in the electronic
data interchange program maintained by many of its larger customers, including
Federated Department Stores, Wal-Mart and J. C. Penney Co. This program allows
the Company to receive customer orders, provide advanced shipping notices,
monitor store inventory and track orders on-line from the time such orders are
placed through delivery. The Company is also able to notify certain of its
customers' warehouses in advance as to shipments.
The Company has a formal Year 2000 compliance schedule for the Company's IT
systems. The Company completed an upgrade of its accounting systems in July 1998
to ensure proper processing of transactions relating to the Year 2000 and
beyond. The Company has completed testing its computer operating systems.
All costs associated with Year 2000 compliance have been funded with working
capital and have been expensed as incurred. The Company has expended
approximately $150,000 to complete its Year 2000 compliance. Of this amount,
$60,000 was expended during fiscal 1999 and $90,000 was incurred during the six
month period ended July 31, 1999.

Based on current information, the Company believes that Y2K issues will not have
a material adverse effect on the Company, its business or its financial
condition. There can, however, be no assurances that Y2K remediation by the
Company or third parties will be properly and timely completed, and failure to
do so could have a material adverse effect on the Company, its business and its
financial condition. The Company believes that the greatest risk presented by
Y2K issues is from third parties, such as suppliers, financial institutions,
utility providers, and others who may not have adequately addressed the problem.
A failure of any such third party's computer or other applicable systems in
sufficient magnitude could materially and adversely affect the Company. The
Company is not presently able to quantify this risk.
The Company is unable to assess a reasonable worst case Y2K scenario given a
number of factors outside of the Company's direct or indirect control, including
among others, the uncertainty of the readiness of vendors and customers. The
Company recognizes the risks in its ability to conduct business if other key
suppliers in utilities, communications, transportation, banking and government,
both domestic (local, state and federal) and foreign, are not Y2K ready. The
Company is still in the process of surveying vendors and customers about their
readiness. Upon completion of this survey, the Company will complete its own
internal review of this information to verify the accuracy of the responses. The
Company is monitoring news and progress reports pertaining to those critical
services to determine the effect on the Company's ability to conduct business as
a result of Y2K issues on the economy if those and other key suppliers in
utilities, communications, transportation, banking and government, both domestic
(local, state and federal) and foreign, cease to function. Once the Company has
completed its assessment and remediation phases of the Y2K issue, the Company
will develop appropriate worst-case scenarios and plans to deal with such
contingencies on a case by case basis, if deemed necessary. At this time the
Company has not developed any such contingency plans.
EFFECT OF RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
Derivatives
In June 1998, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.
133 ("SFAS NO. 133"), "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging
Activities," which is effective for the Company's fiscal year ending December
31, 2000. SFAS No. 133 will require the Company to recognize all derivatives on
the balance sheet at fair value. Adoption of SFAS No. 133 is not expected to
have a material effect on the Company's financial statements.
