Note 1 - Accounting Principles.

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim
financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of
Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and
footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete
financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting
of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have
been included. Operating results for the three and nine month periods ended
March 31, 2000, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be
expected for the year ended June 30, 2000. For further information, refer to the
consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Tandy
Brands Accessories, Inc. and Subsidiaries Annual Report on Form 10-K for the
year ended June 30, 1999.

Note 2 - Acquisitions

On July 16, 1999, the Company purchased certain assets of Frank Spielberg Sales
LLC ("Spielberg"), a handbag designer and marketer based in St. Louis, Missouri,
for approximately $3.6 million. The cash purchase price was provided by drawing
on existing bank lines. Spielberg supplies proprietary design, marketing and
sourcing expertise for handbags under department store private labels and direct
sales to retailers. Spielberg will continue to operate from its St. Louis, New
York City and Hong Kong offices. The acquisition was accounted for under the
purchase method of accounting and the resultant goodwill of approximately
$1,675,000 is amortized over 20 years. The pro-forma effects of this acquisition
are not material.

Note 3 - Comprehensive Income.

         The components of comprehensive income, net of related tax, for the
three and nine months ended March 31, 2000 and 1999 are as follows (in
thousands):

Note 6 - Stock Repurchase Program

On April 26, 2000, the Company's Board of Directors approved a plan to
repurchase, from time to time in the open market or through negotiated
transactions, shares of the Company's common stock at an aggregate purchase
price of up to $2,000,000 (the "repurchase program"). This program is an
extension of the $2,000,000 repurchase program the Company initiated on October
20, 1999. Any open market purchases will be at prevailing market prices. The
timing of any repurchases will depend on market conditions, market price, and
management's assessment of the Company's liquidity and cash flow needs. Any
repurchased shares will be added to the Company's treasury shares and may be
used for the Company's stock plans and other corporate purposes. The funds
required for the repurchases will be provided from the Company's current cash
balances, operating cash flow, or the Company's credit facility. During the nine
months ended March 31, 2000, the Company repurchased 140,800 shares of treasury
stock under the repurchase program at a cost of approximately $1,659,000. During
the nine months ended March 31, 2000, 50,452 shares of treasury stock were
reissued to the Company's employee stock purchase program.

Note 7 - Terminations of  License Agreements

On November 9, 1999, the Company and JONES APPAREL GROUP amended their existing
licensing agreement. Under the amended agreement Tandy Brands Accessories will
continue to design and market men's belts and personal leather goods as well as
women's small leather goods under various JONES NEW YORK(R) brands, but will no
longer design and market women's handbags under any JONES NEW YORK(R) brands. As
compensation for the early termination of women's handbag license rights, Jones
Apparel Group paid the Company $1,500,000 in cash, of which a portion was used
to wind down functions related to the license arrangements. Consequently, the
results for the nine-month period ended March 31, 2000 include a one-time
benefit, net of related costs of $1,000,000 from the termination of this
licensing agreement.

On March 3, 2000, the Company and JONES APPAREL GROUP amended their existing
licensing agreement. Under the amended agreement Tandy Brands Accessories will
continue to design and market men's small leather goods and belts under various
JONES NEW YORK(R) brands, but will no longer design and market women's small
leather goods under any JONES NEW YORK(R) brands. As compensation for the early
termination of the small leather goods license rights, Jones Apparel Group paid
Tandy Brands $800,000 in cash. Additionally, Jones Apparel reimbursed Tandy
Brands for its current on-hand small leather goods inventory of approximately
$950,000. Consequently, the results for the three and nine month periods ended
March 31, 2000 include a one-time benefit, net of related costs of $600,000 from
the termination of this licensing agreement.

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


THREE AND NINE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2000 COMPARED TO THE THREE AND NINE MONTHS
ENDED MARCH 31, 1999


NET SALES

For the three-month period ended March 31, 2000, net sales increased 3.8% to
$39,686,000 as compared to net sales of $38,247,000 for the same period last
year. The overall increase was attributable to higher sales volume in existing
men's product lines and sales from the purchase of assets of Frank Spielberg
Sales, LLC. Although the Company achieved consistent core growth in men's
accessories, the overall sales increase did not offset decreases in women's
small leather goods and handbag sales resulting in a 2% decrease in core product
sales as compared to prior year quarter. The lower than expected sales were
caused primarily by weak reorders as a result of soft holiday retail sales and
decreased women's accessories trend item sales as compared to the same period
last year. Additionally, sales were impacted by the discontinuation of business
of several retail customers as a result of industry consolidation, store
closures and bankruptcies. These sales pressures were primarily concentrated on
our women's accessory business including our small leather goods, belts and
trend item product categories. The aforementioned sales shortfall in women's
accessories had a disproportionate effect on selling, general and administrative
expenses as a percentage of sales and net income during the three-month period
ended March 31, 2000. For the nine-month period ended March 31, 2000, net sales
increased 10.1% to $150,508,000 as compared to net sales of $136,650,000 for the
same period last year. The sales increases were attributable to higher sales
volume in men's small leather goods and handbag sales sold to various mass
merchants.

GROSS MARGINS

Gross margins for the three-month period ended March 31, 2000 decreased $64,000,
or 0.5% as compared to the same period for the prior year. As a percentage of
sales, men's gross margin decreased 1.7% due to a higher sales mix of mass
merchant sales compared to the prior year. The women's gross margin percentage
decreased 1.4% and 1.0%, respectively for the three and nine month periods ended
March 31, 2000 as compared to the same periods last year. The decrease is the
result of the termination of the JONES NEW YORK(R) handbag and small leather
good product lines (See Note 7) as well as higher mass merchant sales as
compared to the same periods in the prior year.

OPERATING EXPENSES

Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of net sales for
the three and nine months ended March 31, 2000 increased to 30.2% and 25.0%,
respectively as compared to 25.8% and 24.4% for the same periods in the prior
year, respectively. The increase resulted from the timing of the wind down of
the JONES NEW YORK handbag product line, the launch of the Rolfs(R) handbag line
as well as increased levels of selling, general and administrative expenses in
anticipation of higher sales volume.

Depreciation and amortization expenses increased $101,000 and $246,000 for the
three and nine months ended March 31, 2000, respectively, compared to the same
periods in the prior year. The increase is attributable to capital expenditures
related to the Company's management information and distribution


                                       11

<PAGE>   12

software systems installed during fiscal 1999 and the amortization of goodwill
recorded in connection with the Spielberg acquisition.

Interest expense for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2000 increased
$10,000 and $237,000, respectively as compared to the same periods in the prior
year. The increase is primarily related to higher weighted average interest
rates as compared to the same periods in the prior year.

The effective tax rate for the nine months ended March 31, 2000 was 38.8% which
is consistent with the same period in the prior year.



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


Net income for the three-month period ended March 31, 2000 decreased 60.9% to
$671,000, or $0.12 per diluted share, compared to net income of $1,715,000, or
$0.29 per diluted share for the same period in the prior year. On March 3, 2000,
the company negotiated an early termination of its small leather goods licensing
agreement with Jones New York. (See Note 7). Both the three and nine month
results include a one time benefit, including related costs, of $600,000 from
the termination of this licensing agreement. Excluding the net benefit of the
early license termination, net income for the three-month period ended March
31,2000 decreased 82.3% to $304,000, or $0.05 per diluted share from the same
period last year.

Net income for the nine months ended March 31, 2000 increased 7.1% to
$8,332,000, or $1.42 per diluted share, compared to net income of $7,777,000, or
$1.34 per diluted share, for the same period in the prior year. On March 3, 2000
and November 9, 1999, the Company negotiated an early termination of its Jones
New York handbag and small leather goods licensing agreements, respectively (See
Note 7). Excluding the net benefit of the early license termination realized
during the second and third quarter of fiscal 2000, net income for the nine
months decreased 5.5% to $7,353,000, or $1.26 per diluted share from the same
period in the prior year.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Generally, the Company's primary sources of liquidity are cash flows from
operations and the Company's lines of credit. The Company has two unsecured
domestic bank credit lines aggregating $90,000,000, which can be used for
seasonal borrowings and letters of credit. The Company's borrowings under its
credit lines were $42,025,000 and $46,700,000 as of March 31, 2000 and 1999,
respectively. The decrease in borrowings under these lines of credit reflects
the consistent application of cash provided by operations.

For the nine months ended March 31, 2000, the Company's operating activities
provided cash of $12,145,000 compared to a use of cash of $2,877,000 for the
same period last year. The increase was attributable to timing of cash receipt
collections related to increased sales, reduced inventory levels and payments
made on behalf of the termination of the Company's Jones New York handbag and
small leather goods licensing agreements during the nine months ended March 31,
2000.

Capital expenditures were $1,551,000 for the nine months ended March 31, 2000.
The decrease of $862,000 over the same prior year period is due to the timing of
capital investments during fiscal 2000. Management anticipates that the
Company's level of capital investment for fiscal 2000 will approximate the prior
year. Capital commitments for fiscal 2000 include leasehold improvements for a
new distribution facility in Dallas, Texas, for women's accessories as well as
additional hardware and software applications.

See Note 2 for a discussion of the purchase of Frank Spielberg, LLC.

The Company has never paid a cash dividend on its Common Stock. The Company
currently intends to retain its earnings for the foreseeable future to provide
funds for the expansion of its business. The Company's existing credit
agreements currently contain covenants related to the maintenance of certain
financial ratios, which could impose certain limitations on the payment of
dividends.

See Note 6 for a discussion of the Company's stock repurchase program.

The Company believes it has adequate financial resources and access to
sufficient credit facilities to satisfy its future working capital needs.

SEASONALITY

The Company's quarterly sales and net income results are fairly consistent
throughout the fiscal year, with a seasonal increase during the second quarter.

INFLATION

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.

ITEM 3. Qualitative and Quantitative Disclosures About Market Risk

The Company is subject to interest rate risk on its long term debt. The Company
manages its exposure to changes in interest rates by the use of variable and
fixed interest rate debt. In addition the Company has hedged its exposure to
changes in interest rates on a portion of its variable debt by entering into a
interest rate swap agreement to lock in a fixed interest rate for a portion of
these borrowings. At March 31, 2000, the Company had borrowings under its credit
lines of $42,025,000 bearing a weighted-average interest rate of 6.51%. In
fiscal 1999, the Company entered into a five-year interest rate swap agreement
converting $15,000,000 of outstanding indebtedness from a variable to a fixed
interest rate. The average receive rate is based on a 90 day LIBOR rate. At
March 31, 2000, the receive and pay rates related to the interest rate swap were
7.09% and 6.52%, respectively. The potential impact of market conditions on the
fair value of the Company's indebtedness is not expected to be material.
