                     MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
         CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
                        TANDY BRANDS ACCESSORIES, INC.

GENERAL
                        
Tandy Brands Accessories, Inc. (the "Company") manufactures and markets men's,
women's and children's accessories.  The Company's business is conducted
primarily in the United States.  Historically, the Company's sales and operating
results are generally consistent throughout the fiscal year, but there is
normally a seasonal increase during the second quarter.  Sales and operating
results for fiscal 1996, as compared to the same prior year period, will be
impacted by the acquisition during fiscal 1995 of the Canterbury Belts, Ltd. and
H.A. Sheldon operations.

On May 1, 1995, the Company acquired Canterbury Belts, Ltd., a manufacturer and
marketer of leather and fabric belts and suspenders for men and belts for women
and children.  The purchase price of approximately $5,000,000 was provided by
drawings on existing bank credit lines.  Canterbury, with sales of approximately
$7,700,000 for the year ended December 31, 1994, sells its products primarily to
better specialty stores.  The acquisition of Canterbury Belts has allowed the
Company to add a new distribution channel where it can market better quality,
higher margin products.

On August 30, 1994, the Company purchased substantially all the assets and
assumed substantially all the liabilities of H.A. Sheldon Inc. for a purchase
price of approximately $2,550,000.  H.A. Sheldon Inc. is a manufacturer and
marketer of men's belts, wallets and suspenders, located in Toronto, Canada.
H.A. Sheldon, Inc. is a primary supplier to Canadian department, chain and mass
merchant retail stores.

Although the Company's operations are affected by general economic trends, the
Company does not believe that inflation has had a material effect on the results
of operations.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Three and Nine Months Ended March 31, 1996 Compared to the Three and Nine Months
Ended March 31, 1995.

At this time last year, Tandy Brands Accessories, Inc. (the "Company") commented
that the slow retail market, which had negatively impacted its third quarter
results, might very well continue to affect the Company's operating results in
the fourth quarter, although hopefully, to a lesser degree.  While that
prediction was correct, it did not envision the degree to which that stagnation
would continue to persist in today's retail market.  However, in spite of the
continued softness in the retail market, the Company reported increases in sales
for the quarter and nine months ended March 31, 1996.

Net sales of $19,180,000 and $66,289,000 for the three and nine month periods
ended March 31, 1996, were up when compared to net sales of $17,247,000 and
$64,407,000 for the same time periods in the prior year.  The Company was also
pleased to announce that net income from continuing operations for the quarter
ended March 31, 1996, of $429,000, was up substantially when compared to the
$177,000 of net income from continuing operations reported for the same time
period in the prior year.  This increase in net income from continuing
operations for the third fiscal quarter occurred in spite of a decrease in gross
profit margin.  The margin decline occurred due to pricing concessions from the
Company in order to generate new business or, in some cases, to maintain the
Company's existing business in an extremely competitive market.  However, the
decline in gross profit margin from 39.5% for the third quarter ended March 31,
1995, to 37.9% for the current quarter, was more than offset by a larger
percentage decrease in selling, general, and administrative expenses.



                                        7
<PAGE>




Net income from continuing operations for the nine months ended March 31, 1996,
was $2,116,000, down from $3,927,000 reported for the same period in the prior
year.  Normally about 76% of the Company's sales and net income are earned
during the first nine months of the Company's fiscal year
ending June 30th, which is about what the Company expects to happen in fiscal
1996.  Fiscal 1995, however, defied the traditional seasonality of the Company's
business from a net income perspective. While 76.9% of fiscal 1995's sales did
occur during the nine months ended March 31, 1995, 93.6% of its annual net
income from continuing operations was earned on those sales.  As a result,
fiscal 1995's fourth quarter only generated 6.4% of its net income from
continuing operations.  This decline in profitability was due to a softening
retail market and a corresponding deterioration in the Company's gross profit
margin.  This condition has continued to prevail throughout fiscal 1996 to date
and is one of the major factors contributing to the Company's marginal
performance this year.  The other contributing factor to the decline in net
income from continuing operations for the nine months ended March 31, 1996, was
an increase in selling, general, and administrative expenses as a percent of
sales.  These expenses were initially incurred in anticipation of a mild
recovery in the retail market.  When that recovery failed to materialize, the
Company responded by initiating a series of cost cutting measures.  This is
obvious from the steep decline in selling, general, and administrative expenses,
as a percent of sales, that occurred during the quarter ended March 31, 1996.

The Company recently announced that it has the exclusive rights to design,
manufacture and market women's small leather goods and handbags for Jones New
York.  Jones New York apparel is currently sold at department and specialty
stores throughout the United States.  On the heals of that announcement, the
Company also reported that it has the exclusive rights to design, manufacture
and market a complete collection of Greg Norman belts and personal leather
goods.  These agreements illustrate the ongoing development of the Company's
strategy to expand its base of better retail distribution channels.

Depreciation and amortization expense increased during fiscal 1996 due primarily
to the acquisition of Canterbury Belts, Ltd. and H.A. Sheldon, Inc.  Interest
expense was also up substantially and due primarily to these acquisitions.

The effective tax rate for all periods presented has remained steady at
approximately 35%.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Company's primary sources of liquidity are cash flow from operations and the
Company's lines of credit.  The Company has two unsecured bank credit lines
aggregating $45,000,000 which can be used for seasonal borrowings and letters of
credit.  The Company also has an unsecured line of credit of $750,000 with a
Canadian bank for seasonal borrowings, letter of credit and foreign exchange
forward contract requirements of H.A., Sheldon.  As of March 31, 1996, the
Company had borrowings under its lines of credit of $17,550,000 down from
$23,477,000 at June 30, 1995.  Since June 30, 1995, the Company's debt to total
capital ratio has fallen from 39% to 31%.  The Company expects to reduce its
debt to total capital ratio from 31% to less than 30% by no later that June 30,
1996.

For the nine months ended March 31, 1996, the Company's operating activities
provided cash of $5,329,000.  The increase in cash available from operations,
other than net income, is primarily due to a $3,798,000 decrease in inventory,
offset in part by a $1,724,000 decrease in accounts payable and accrued
expenses.

Capital expenditures were only $572,000 for the nine months ended March 31,
1996, compared to $1,316,000 for the same period of the prior year.  These
expenditures are down in response to the slow retail market and the fact that
there are no significant capital expenditures projects under way.

The Company believes that its cash flow from operations and borrowing available
under bank lines of credit are sufficient to fund its operations.

Exhibit 11. Statement Regarding Computation of Per Share Earnings.

Earnings per Share - Earnings per share is determined by dividing net income by
the average number of common shares outstanding plus common stock equivalents.
Common stock equivalents consist of shares issuable under outstanding stock
options reduced by shares assumed to be purchased from the proceeds of such
options.  Earnings per share, as presented, is both primary and fully diluted.
