ATTACHMENT TO PART IV OF
FORM 12b-25 OF
CANDIE'S, INC.
With respect to its Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter
ended July 31, 1999
The registrant is unable at this time to quantify its financial results for
its fiscal quarter ended July 31, 1999 due to its delay in completing the
financial statements for the quarter ended July 31, 1999. The quarterly
financial statements could not be completed on a timely basis due to, among
other things, the timing of the completion of the registrant's financial
statements for its fiscal year ended January 31, 1999. However, the registrant
does expect that the financial statements for its fiscal quarter ended July 31,
1999 will reflect operating and net losses compared to operating and net income
for the comparable quarter in 1998.
