GOODY'S FAMILY CLOTHING, INC.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)

(1) Unaudited Financial Information

In the opinion of the Company's management, the accompanying unaudited
financial statements include all adjustments, consisting only of normal and
recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of the results of
operations for the interim periods presented. Due to the seasonal nature of the
Company's business, the results of operations for the interim periods are not
necessarily indicative of the results that may be achieved for the entire year.

(2) Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation

In October 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation," which is effective for the Company beginning February 4, 1996.
SFAS No. 123 requires expanded disclosure of stock-based compensation
arrangements with employees and encourages (but does not require) compensation
costs to be measured based on the fair value of the equity instrument awarded.
Companies are permitted, however, to continue to apply APB Opinion No. 25,
which recognizes compensation costs based on the intrinsic value of the equity
instrument awarded.  The Company will continue to apply APB Opinion No. 25 to
its stock-based compensation awards to employees and will disclose the required
pro forma effect on net earnings and earnings per common share in its annual
financial statements for the fiscal year ending February 1, 1997.

(3) Credit Arrangements

The Company has a credit agreement with a consortium of banks for an unsecured
revolving line of credit, which provides for cash borrowings for general
corporate purposes as well as for the issuance of letters of credit of up to
$100,000,000.  On May 20, 1996, the expiration date of this credit agreement
was extended to May 31, 1998.  The Company is committed to pay (i) interest on
the cash borrowings at a fluctuating base rate or LIBOR plus an applicable
margin, as defined, (ii) letter of credit fees based on the number of days a
letter of credit is outstanding times the applicable rate, and (iii) a
commitment fee  payable quarterly in advance.  The terms of this credit
facility require, among other things, maintenance of minimum levels of
shareholders' equity and compliance with certain financial ratios and place
restrictions on additional indebtedness, asset disposals, investments and
capital expenditures. In addition, the Company is prohibited from paying
dividends.

(4) Reclassifications

Certain reclassifications have been made to the financial statements of prior
periods to conform to the current period presentation.

INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS' REPORT


Board of Directors and Shareholders
Goody's Family Clothing, Inc.
Knoxville, Tennessee:

We have reviewed the accompanying balance sheets of Goody's Family Clothing,
Inc. as of May 4, 1996 and April 29, 1995, and the related statements of
operations and cash flows for the thirteen-week periods then ended.  These
financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management.

We conducted our reviews in accordance with standards established by the
American Institute of Certified Public Accountants.  A review of interim
financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures to
financial data and of making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and
accounting matters.  It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted
in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, the objective of
which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken
as a whole.  Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.

Based on our reviews, we are not aware of any material modifications that
should be made to such financial statements for them to be in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles.

We have previously audited, in accordance with generally accepted auditing      
standards, the balance sheet of Goody's Family Clothing, Inc. as of February 3,
1996, and the related statements of operations, shareholders' equity, and cash
flows for the year then ended (not presented herein); and in our report dated
March 15, 1996, we expressed an unqualified opinion on those financial
statements.  In our opinion, the information set forth in the accompanying
balance sheet as of February 3, 1996 is fairly stated, in all material
respects, in relation to the balance sheet from which it has been derived.

ITEM 2.  -  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
            RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

GENERAL

During the first quarter of fiscal 1996, the Company opened nine new stores and
relocated one store, bringing the total number of stores in operation at
quarter end to 193, compared with 174 at the end of the first quarter of fiscal
1995.  In the corresponding period of the previous fiscal year, two new stores
were opened, one store was relocated and one clearence store was opened with an
existing lease from a previously relocated store.

Net earnings for the first quarter of fiscal 1996 were $2,204,000, or 1.5% of
sales, compared with $2,266,000, or 1.6% of sales, for the first quarter of
fiscal 1995.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following table sets forth unaudited results of operations as a percent of

</TABLE>



Sales - Sales for the first quarter of fiscal 1996 were $150,766,000, a 4.0%
increase over the $144,932,000 for the first quarter of the previous fiscal
year.  Of this $5,834,000 increase, new store sales contributed $13,510,000
which was primarily offset by a decrease in comparable store sales of 5.7%, or
$8,292,000.  Although sales for the first quarter of fiscal 1996 showed an
increase over the first quarter of the previous fiscal year, they were
negatively effected by the poor weather conditions in most of the Company's
markets and were below the Company's expectations.

At the beginning of fiscal 1996, the Company adopted a new method of reporting
comparable store sales. Comparable store sales are now based on stores which
are currently operating (including relocated, remodeled, and expanded stores)
and which were in operation the entire prior fiscal year.  Previously, new
stores became comparable the first full month following the anniversary of its
opening.  This change was made to reduce the possible distortions related to
new store grand openings and had no material effect on sales comparisons for
the quarter.

Gross Profit - Gross profit for the first quarter of fiscal 1996 was
$42,645,000, or 28.3% of sales, a $4,107,000 increase over the $38,538,000, or
26.6% of sales, in gross profit for the first quarter of the previous fiscal
year. The 1.7% increase in gross profit, as a percent of sales, consists of (i)
a decrease in cost of sales by 1.8% as a result of well-positioned inventories 
at the beginning of fiscal 1996 which allowed the Company to realize higher 
gross margins and (ii) an increase in occupancy costs by 0.1% resulting from 
higher lease costs.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses - Selling, general and
administrative expenses for the first quarter of fiscal 1996 were $39,258,000,
or 26.0% of sales, an increase of $4,190,000 from $35,068,000, or 24.2% of
sales, for the first quarter of the previous fiscal year.  Selling, general and
administrative expenses increased by 1.8%, as a percent of sales, for the first
quarter of fiscal 1996 compared with the first quarter of the previous fiscal
year and is comprised of (i) a 0.6% increase in payroll expenses, (ii) a 0.8%
increase in advertisement and promotion expenses, (iii) a 0.3% increase in
other selling, general and administrative expenses and (iv) a 0.1%

                                       8

increase in depreciation and amortization expenses.  Included in the selling,
general and administrative expenses are pre-opening costs of approximately
$1,000,000, or 0.7% as a percent of sales, associated with the six Atlanta,
Georgia metropolitan area stores that opened on May 2, 1996.

Interest Expense - Interest expense for the first quarter of fiscal 1996
increased by $38,000 over the first quarter of the previous fiscal year. This
increase is primarily attributable to the fees paid in connection with the
credit agreement entered into by the Company with a consortium of banks on May
25, 1995.

Investment and Other Income - Investment and other income for the first quarter
of fiscal 1996 was $255,000 compared with $204,000 for the first quarter of the
previous fiscal year.  The increase is primarily due to an increase in invested
funds during the period.

Income Taxes - The provision for income taxes for the first quarter of fiscal
1996 was $1,351,000, for an effective tax rate of 38.0% of earnings before
income taxes, compared with $1,359,000, for an effective tax rate of 37.5% of
earnings before income taxes, for the first quarter of the previous fiscal
year.  The increase in effective tax rate is primarily due to a decrease in
tax-free investment income.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Financial Position - The Company's primary sources of liquidity are cash flows
from operations, including credit terms from vendors, and borrowings under its
credit agreement with a consortium of banks.  At May 4, 1996, the Company's
working capital was $29,565,000 compared with $19,568,000 at April 29, 1995, an
improvement of 6.8% in the working capital ratio from the previous fiscal year.
At the end of the first quarter of fiscal 1996 compared with the first quarter
of the previous year, (i) cash, cash equivalents and investment securities have
decreased by $1,019,000 and property and equipment have increased by $1,359,000
and (ii) inventories and accounts payable have increased by $17,408,000 and
$8,533,000, respectively, in anticipation of the summer selling season and an
increase in the number of stores.  Trade payables, as a percent of inventories,
decreased from 82.9% at April 29, 1995 to 77.6% at May 4, 1996.

At May 4, 1996, the Company has an unsecured $100,000,000 revolving line of
credit from a consortium of banks, of which no amount was in use for cash
borrowings and $24,163,000 was in use for outstanding letters of credit.
Borrowings under the Company's bank line of credit, consisting of cash
borrowings and letters of credit, averaged $15,884,000 during the first quarter
of fiscal 1996, with the highest balance for the quarter of $24,316,000 in May
1996.  On May 20, 1996, the Company amended its credit agreement to extend the
expiration date to May 31, 1998.  See Note 3 to Notes to Financial Statements.

Cash Flows - Operating activities used cash of $3,574,000 in the first quarter
of fiscal 1996 compared with cash provided by operating activities of
$5,338,000 in the first quarter of the previous fiscal year.  Cash used in
operating activities during the first quarter of fiscal 1996 for seasonal
inventory increases was $32,942,000 compared with $29,393,000 for the first
quarter of the previous fiscal year.  Accounts payable provided cash of
$21,373,000 in the first quarter of fiscal 1996 compared with $31,552,000 for
the first quarter of the previous fiscal year.  Depreciation and amortization
amounted to $2,290,000 in the first quarter of fiscal 1996 compared with
$2,017,000 for the first quarter of the previous fiscal year.

Cash flows from investing activities for the first quarter of fiscal 1996
reflected a net use of cash amounting to $3,075,000, compared with $2,648,000
for the first quarter of the previous fiscal year.  The cash was used to fund
capital expenditures incurred relating to new stores opened during the first
quarters of fiscal 1996 and 1995. 

Cash used by financing activities for the first quarter of fiscal 1996 was 
$3,437,000, compared with $1,818,000 for the first quarter of the previous
fiscal year.  The cash management program used by the Company used cash of
$3,437,000 in the first quarter of fiscal 1996 compared with cash provided of
$991,000 for the first quarter of the previous fiscal year.  During the first
quarter of fiscal 1995, the Company repaid advances on previous revolving lines

Outlook - The Company plans to open nine new stores and relocate/remodel six
stores during the remainder of fiscal 1996, bringing the total number of stores
in operation at the end of fiscal 1996 to 202.  Management estimates that
capital expenditures of approximately $16,800,000 will be required to open new
stores, upgrade existing stores, purchase computer systems and equipment and
for other capital expenditure requirements for the remainder of fiscal 1996.

The Company's primary needs for capital resources are for the purchase of store
inventories, capital expenditures and for normal operating expenses.
Management believes that cash flows from operations, including credit terms
from vendors, and the borrowings available under the credit facility will be
sufficient to meet the Company's operating and capital expenditure
requirements.

This Quarterly Report may include forward-looking statements that may or may
not materialize.  Additional information on factors that could potentially
affect the Company's financial results may be found in the Company's filings
with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

SEASONALITY AND INFLATION

The Company's business is seasonal by nature.  The Christmas season (beginning
on the Sunday before Thanksgiving and ending on the first Saturday after
Christmas), the back-to-school period (beginning approximately the first week
of August and continuing through the first week of September) and the Easter
season (beginning approximately two weeks before Easter Sunday and ending on
the Saturday preceding Easter) collectively accounted for approximately 37% of
the Company's annual sales, based on the Company's last three fiscal years.  In
general, sales volume varies directly with customer traffic, which is heaviest
during the third and fourth quarters of a fiscal year.

The Company does not believe inflation has had a material effect on its results
of operations during the past three fiscal years. However, there can be no
assurance that the Company's business will not be affected by inflation in the
future.

herein and defined in the Credit Agreement shall be used herein as so defined).

     B. The Transferor Lender is selling and assigning to each Purchasing

defined herein shall have the same meanings as in the Credit Agreement),
together with interest on the unpaid principal balance of the Loans evidenced

this Note shall be due and payable at the times and in the manner specified in

however, that (a) Holder's failure to make any such recordation or endorsement
shall not in any way limit or otherwise affect the obligations of Maker or the
rights and remedies of Holder under this Note or the Credit Agreement and (b)
payments to Holder of the principal of and interest on the Loans evidenced

entitled to the benefits of the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

     It is the intention of Maker and Holder to conform strictly to all laws
applicable to the Holder that govern or limit the interest and loan charges
that may be charged in respect of the indebtedness evidenced hereby.  Anything

<PAGE>   13

the use of the money advanced or to be advanced under the Credit Agreement
exceed the maximum amounts collectible pursuant to applicable law.  Pursuant to
the Credit Agreement, Maker and the Lenders have agreed that:

           (a) if for any reason whatsoever the interest or loan charges paid
      or contracted to be paid by Maker to any of the Lenders in respect of the

      applicable to such Lender, then, in that event, and notwithstanding

      any Lender shall be credited by such Lender on the principal amount of
      the Obligations (or, to the extent the principal amount outstanding under

      thereby would be paid in full, refunded to Maker), and (ii) in the event
      that the maturity of any or all of the Obligations is accelerated by
      reason of an election of the Lenders resulting from any Default under the
      Credit Agreement or otherwise, or in the event of any required or
      permitted prepayment, then such consideration that constitutes interest
      or loan charges under the law applicable to any Lender may never include
      more than the maximum amounts allowed by the law applicable to such
      Lender, and any excess interest or loan charges provided for in the
      Credit Agreement or otherwise shall be cancelled automatically as of the
      date of such acceleration or prepayment and, if theretofore paid, shall
      be credited by such Lender on the principal amount of the Obligations
      (or, to the extent the principal amount of the Obligations has been or
      thereby would be paid in full, refunded by such Lender to Maker);

           (b) all sums paid or agreed to be paid to the Lenders for the use,
      forbearance or detention of sums due under the Credit Agreement shall, to
      the extent permitted by applicable law, be prorated, allocated and spread
      throughout the full term of the Obligations until payment in full so that
      the rate or amount of interest and loan charges on account of the
      Obligations will not exceed any applicable legal limitation; and

           (c) the right to accelerate the maturity of the Obligations does not
      include the right to accelerate the maturity of any interest or loan
      charges not otherwise accrued on the date of such acceleration, and the
      Lenders do not intend to charge or collect any unearned interest or loan
      charges in the event of any such acceleration.

     This Note has been negotiated, executed and delivered in the State of
Tennessee, and is intended as a contract under and shall be construed and
enforceable in accordance with the laws of said state, without reference to the
conflicts or choice of law principles thereof, except to the extent that
Federal law may be applicable to determining the maximum amount of interest
that may be charged by Holder in respect of the indebtedness evidenced hereby.

     IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the undersigned Maker has caused this Note to be
executed by its duly authorized officers as of the date first above written.

referred to as the "Credit Agreement"; capitalized terms used but not otherwise
defined herein shall have the same meanings as in the Credit Agreement),
together with interest on the unpaid principal balance of the Loans evidenced

allowed to be collected under applicable law.

     Principal and interest payable in respect of the indebtedness evidenced by
this Note shall be due and payable at the times and in the manner specified in

interest made to such Holder with respect to such Loans, on a schedule annexed
to and constituting a part of this Note, which recordation and endorsement
shall constitute prima facie evidence of the respective Loans made by Holder to

however, that (a) Holder's failure to make any such recordation or endorsement
shall not in any way limit or otherwise affect the obligations of Maker or the
rights and remedies of Holder under this Note or the Credit Agreement and (b)

each Loan made by it, and the amount of each payment of principal and interest
made to such Holder with respect to such Loans, on its books and records in
accordance with its usual and customary practice, which recordation shall

     This Note is one of the "Notes" in the aggregate principal amount of
$100,000,000 issued by Maker pursuant to the Credit Agreement, and this Note is
entitled to the benefits of the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

     It is the intention of Maker and Holder to conform strictly to all laws
applicable to the Holder that govern or limit the interest and loan charges
that may be charged in respect of the indebtedness evidenced hereby.  Anything
in this Note, the Credit Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents to the
contrary notwithstanding, in no event whatsoever, whether by reason of
advancement of proceeds of the Loans or the Letters of Credit, acceleration of
the maturity of the unpaid balance of any of the Obligations or otherwise,
shall the interest and loan charges agreed to be paid to any of the Lenders for

                                       28

<PAGE>   17

the use of the money advanced or to be advanced under the Credit Agreement
exceed the maximum amounts collectible pursuant to applicable law.  Pursuant to
the Credit Agreement, Maker and the Lenders have agreed that:

           (a) if for any reason whatsoever the interest or loan charges paid
      or contracted to be paid by Maker to any of the Lenders in respect of the
      Loans shall exceed the maximum amount collectible under the law
      applicable to such Lender, then, in that event, and notwithstanding
      anything to the contrary in the Credit Agreement, the Notes or any other
      Loan Document (i) the aggregate of all consideration that constitutes
      interest or loan charges under the law applicable to such Lender that is
      contracted for, taken, reserved, charged or received under the Credit
      Agreement, the Notes or any other Loan Document or otherwise in
      connection with the Obligations under no circumstances shall exceed the
      maximum amounts allowed by such applicable law, and any excess paid to
      any Lender shall be credited by such Lender on the principal amount of
      the Obligations (or, to the extent the principal amount outstanding under
      the Credit Agreement, the Notes and the other Loan Documents has been or
      thereby would be paid in full, refunded to Maker), and (ii) in the event
      that the maturity of any or all of the Obligations is accelerated by
      reason of an election of the Lenders resulting from any Default under the
      Credit Agreement or otherwise, or in the event of any required or
      permitted prepayment, then such consideration that constitutes interest
      or loan charges under the law applicable to any Lender may never include
      more than the maximum amounts allowed by the law applicable to such
      Lender, and any excess interest or loan charges provided for in the
      Credit Agreement or otherwise shall be cancelled automatically as of the
      date of such acceleration or prepayment and, if theretofore paid, shall
      be credited by such Lender on the principal amount of the Obligations
      (or, to the extent the principal amount of the Obligations has been or
      thereby would be paid in full, refunded by such Lender to Maker);

           (b) all sums paid or agreed to be paid to the Lenders for the use,
      forbearance or detention of sums due under the Credit Agreement shall, to
      the extent permitted by applicable law, be prorated, allocated and spread
      throughout the full term of the Obligations until payment in full so that
      the rate or amount of interest and loan charges on account of the
      Obligations will not exceed any applicable legal limitation; and

           (c) the right to accelerate the maturity of the Obligations does not
      include the right to accelerate the maturity of any interest or loan
      charges not otherwise accrued on the date of such acceleration, and the
      Lenders do not intend to charge or collect any unearned interest or loan
      charges in the event of any such acceleration.

     This Note has been negotiated, executed and delivered in the State of
Tennessee, and is intended as a contract under and shall be construed and
enforceable in accordance with the laws of said state, without reference to the
conflicts or choice of law principles thereof, except to the extent that
Federal law may be applicable to determining the maximum amount of interest
that may be charged by Holder in respect of the indebtedness evidenced hereby.

     IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the undersigned Maker has caused this Note to be
executed by its duly authorized officers as of the date first above written.
