    Sales increases for the third quarter and first nine months of 1995 reflect
higher unit volumes of domestic activewear and continued solid growth in the
International operations. International sales have grown 34% for the nine
months this year versus last year.

    Gross margins were unfavorably impacted by competitive pricing associated
primarily with excess inventory of T-shirts, higher raw material costs, and
unfavorable variances associated with domestic contracting. The significance of
domestic contracting is diminishing as the Company adds internal capacities and
increases '807' assembly and offshore sourced product. It is anticipated that
competitive pricing pressure will continue through the fourth quarter of this
year. This trend should diminish in 1996 as industry capacity is adjusted and
excess inventories are corrected.

    Selling, general and administrative expenses were higher principally due to
the inclusion of acquisitions and higher advertising costs. Interest expense
increased in the quarter due to higher seasonal borrowings. Other income was
derived mainly from interest, rental income and the disposition of certain
fixed assets.

Financial Condition

    The Company's financial condition remains strong. Long-term debt to total
capitalization is at 23.0%. As of October 1, short-term debt was $156,023,000.
During the second quarter of this year, the Company borrowed $75,000,000 under
an agreement with a major commercial bank. The proceeds from this borrowing
were used to reduce short-term debt. The Company continues to maintain
$209,000,000 in informal lines of credit.

    The statement of cash flows reflects that $52,237,000 was invested in the
capital program in the first nine months of 1995. Capital expenditures, working
capital, dividends, and treasury stock purchases were met with internally
generated funds, short-term bank loans and long-term borrowings. Inventory
levels are up 14% over last year and are positioned for the anticipated higher
shipments in the fourth quarter. Accounts receivable growth of 9% is basically
in line with sales growth.

    The Company utilizes interest rate swaps to change the characteristics of
certain debt. Prior to 1995, the Company had an outstanding agreement that
effectively converted $75,000,000 of long-term debt from a fixed rate to a
floating rate basis. Additionally, an agreement was entered into in the second
quarter, converting the most recent $75,000,000 long-term borrowing from a
floating rate to a fixed rate of 6.67%.

    The Company utilizes cotton futures contracts to facilitate setting sales
prices which are generally set six months to a year in advance of the selling
season. Depending upon market conditions, futures may be purchased to cover the
Company's cotton requirements, generally, at the time that prices are set.
While the purchasing of futures reduces the risks of adverse price
fluctuations, it also limits the Company's ability to benefit from positive
price fluctuations over the terms of the agreements.

    In anticipation of higher cotton prices in 1995, the Company purchased
futures contracts to cover a portion of its cotton requirements. Cotton prices
rose in the second quarter and continued that trend in the third quarter. The
aforementioned futures favorably mitigated a portion of the impact of higher
prices. The unfavorable impact of higher fiber costs will continue in the
fourth quarter.

    The carrying value of goodwill is reviewed by management when facts and
circumstances suggest that it may be impaired. Should this review indicate that
goodwill will not be recoverable, based upon undiscounted cash flows of the
entity, the Company's carrying value of the goodwill is reduced by the
estimated shortfalls of the cash flows.

SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

    After October 1, the Company reached an agreement in principle for a
private placement of $100,000,000 of long-term debt, due 2008, at a fixed rate
of 6.78%. The proceeds of this placement will be used for the repayment of
short-term debt and other general corporate purposes.
