                            BISCAYNE APPAREL, INC.
                  NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.    The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements, which are
      for an interim period, do not include all disclosures provided in the
      annual consolidated financial statements. These unaudited consolidated
      financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated
      financial statements and the footnotes with respect thereto, contained in
      the Biscayne Apparel, Inc., ("Company") 1995 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

      The consolidated financial statements of the Company include the accounts
      of the parent company, and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Biscayne Apparel
      International, Inc. ("BAII"), and M&L International, Inc. ("M&L"), which
      was acquired in November 1994, and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Unidex
      Garments (Philippines), Inc., Watersports Garment Manufacturing, Inc.,
      Teri Outerwear Manufacturing, Inc., GES Sportswear Manufacturing Corp. and
      M&L International (H.K.) Limited.

      As of March 1, 1996, Unidex, Watersports, Teri and GES ceased operations
      due to operating losses caused by labor increases and production
      inefficiencies.

      BAII operates through two divisions, Andy Johns Fashions International
      ("Andy Johns") and Varon, and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Mackintosh of
      New England Co., Mackintosh (U.K.) Limited and Amy Industries De Honduras,
      S.A. de C.V., which was organized during 1995. The Company had a 20%
      interest in Hartwell Sports, Inc. and accounted for this investment, over
      which it exercised significant influence, under the equity method in
      accordance with Accounting Principle Board Opinion No. 18. All material
      intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. Certain
      amounts included in prior period financial statements have been
      reclassified to conform with the 1996 presentation.

      The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
      accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
      assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
      disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the
      financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses
      during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those
      estimates.

2.    In the opinion of the Company, the accompanying unaudited consolidated
      financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of only normal
      recurring accruals) necessary for a fair presentation of the financial
      statements.

3.    The results of operations for the three and nine month periods ended
      September 30, 1996 and 1995 are not necessarily indicative of the results
      to be expected for the full year.

4.    Earnings per common share are based on the weighted average number of
      common and common equivalent shares, if dilutive, outstanding during the
      period. Common stock equivalents include incremental shares from the
      exercise of stock options and warrants under the treasury stock method.
      Earnings (loss) per share and weighted average shares have been restated
      for the Company's May 1995 stock dividend.

5.    Included in accounts payable at September 30, 1996 and September 30, 1995
      are the Company's obligations under outstanding letters of credit of
      $2,232,000 and $4,092,000, respectively.

6.    On March 27, 1996, the Company sold its 20% investment in Hartwell Sports,
      Inc. for $1,750,000. The sale resulted in a gain of $123,000 during the
      first quarter ended March 31, 1996. Cash proceeds from this sale were used
      to reduce Biscayne's outstanding bank indebtedness.

7.    On March 28, 1996, Biscayne amended its loan agreements to provide for a
      $56,250,000 credit facility. This facility provides financing for working
      capital growth and capital expenditures, and includes a revolving credit
      facility of $50,000,000 and a $6,250,000 term loan.

8.    The Company's management agreement with Trivest, Inc. ("Trivest"), an
      affiliate of the Company, was amended effective January 1, 1996 to reduce
      the amount of the annual base management fee ("Base Fee") by $200,000
      ("1996 Reduction Amount") for the calendar year beginning January 1, 1996.
      The amount of the Base Fee payable for periods beginning January 1, 1997
      and thereafter will be determined as if the foregoing reduction had not
      taken effect, provided the Company is in compliance with the terms of its
      loan agreements. Otherwise, such prospective payments will be deferred and
      subordinated to the Company's senior lenders.

      In lieu of the 1996 Reduction Amount, the Company issued to Trivest a
      warrant ("Warrant") to purchase an aggregate of 200,000 shares of the
      Company's Common stock, $0.01 par value, for an exercise price of $0.75
      per share, the market value as of March 26, 1996. The Warrant will be
      exercisable in whole or in part at any time during the period beginning
      January 1, 1997 and ending at the close of business on December 31, 2001.
      Additionally, assuming the Company's Andy Johns Fashion International
      Divisions' and Mackintosh of New England, Co. Subsidiary's combined pretax
      income plus management fees, corporate expense and amortization of
      goodwill ("Operating Income") exceeds 75% of the actual 1993 Operating
      Income of $3,400,000, or $2,550,000, Trivest shall have the option to

                                       6
<PAGE>



      receive a cash payment of an amount ("Cash Payment of the 1996 Reduction
      Amount") equal to 1% of the 1996 Reduction Amount for each 1% of excess
      Operating Income earned in 1996, 1997 or 1998 above $2,550,000. The Cash
      Payment of the 1996 Reduction Amount shall not exceed the remainder of (X)
      the 1996 Reduction Amount minus (Y) the number of shares of stock issuable
      under the Warrant.

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

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

QUARTER ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1996 VERSUS QUARTER ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1995

Net sales for the third quarter of 1996 increased by 13% to $46,054,000 from the
third quarter of 1995 net sales of $40,898,000. This increase was attributable
to increases in net sales realized by Andy Johns and Mackintosh.

Cost of goods sold, as a percentage of net sales, decreased to 73% for the nine
months ended September 30, 1996, compared to 74% in 1995, primarily due to lower
production costs realized by M&L.

Selling, general and administrative expenses ("S,G&A") as a percentage of net
sales decreased to 15% for the quarter ended September 30, 1996, compared to 17%
for the quarter ended September 30, 1995. This cost decrease is primarily due to
increased sales and continued cost reductions at Andy Johns and Mackintosh.

OTHER

Interest and other expenses for the quarter ended September 30, 1996 increased
slightly by $13,000 from the comparable quarter of 1995. The increase is due to
the increased debt resulting from the 1995 losses. The Company reduced its bank
debt by $5,224,000 from September 30, 1995 to September 30, 1996.

Interest and other income increased to $293,000 in the third quarter of 1996
versus 1995 primarily due to direct letter of credit revenue earned by Andy
Johns during the third quarter of 1996.

NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1996 VERSUS NINE MONTHS ENDED
SEPTEMBER 30, 1995

Net sales for the nine months ended September 30, 1996 increased 6% to
$75,183,000 from $70,804,000 for 1995. This increase is due to a 65% increase,
or $6,918,000 in sales realized by the Andy Johns division in 1996, compared to
1995.

Consolidated sales backlog at September 30, 1996 increased to $37,381,000 from
$28,836,000 at September 30, 1995. All divisions

                                       7
<PAGE>

had increased sales backlog mainly due to improved market conditions and product
development enhancements.

Cost of goods sold as a percentage of net sales remained constant at 75% for the
nine months ended September 30, 1996 and 1995.

Selling, general and administrative expenses ("S,G&A"), as a percentage of net
sales, decreased to 24% for the first nine months of 1996, compared to 26% for
the first nine months of 1995. The decrease is mainly attributable to higher
sales realized by Andy Johns in 1996 versus 1995.

Historically, the apparel industry has been subject to substantial cyclical
fluctuation, with purchases of apparel and related goods tending to decline
during periods when disposable income is low. This trend could have a material
adverse effect on the Company's business.

The weakness of retail sales of outerwear in 1995 and early 1996 adversely
affected the Company's operating results. The Company believes that its
operating results will continue to be adversely affected as long as weakness
continues. In addition, various retailers, including some of Biscayne's
customers, have experienced financial difficulties during recent years which
have increased the risk of extending credit to such retailers.

OTHER

Interest and other expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 1996
increased to $2,677,000, compared to $2,425,000 for the nine months ended
September 30, 1995. The increase is due to increased bank borrowings incurred
during 1996, primarily related to the losses incurred in 1995.

Interest and other income increased to $456,000 for the first nine months of
1996 from $58,000 for the first nine months of 1995, primarily due to direct
letter of credit revenue earned by Andy Johns in the third quarter of 1996 and
license revenues earned by M&L in the first quarter of 1996.

On March 27, 1996, the Company sold its 20% interest in Hartwell Sports, Inc.
for $1,750,000. Proceeds were used to reduce notes payable to banks. The sale
resulted in a gain during 1996 of $123,000.

INCOME TAXES

For the quarters and nine months ended September 30, 1996 and 1995, the
provision (benefit) for income taxes was greater than the provision (benefit)
for income taxes which would have been derived upon application of the federal
statutory rate, primarily because of state income tax benefits and non-taxable
interest income offset by nondeductible amortization of goodwill.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Cash and cash equivalents were $825,000 and $312,000 at September 30, 1996 and
December 31, 1995, respectively. At September 30, 1996, the Company's working
capital was $20,370,000, representing a current ratio of 1.50 to 1.00. This
compares to working capital of $19,559,000 and a current ratio of 1.68 to 1.00
at December 31, 1995. The decrease in the working capital ratio was due to
year-to-date losses and the seasonality of each of the Company's operations.

As presented in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for the nine months
ended September 30, 1996, the increase of accounts receivable of $20,915,000 and
accounts payable of $2,457,000 and the decrease in inventories of $3,368,000 are
due to the seasonality of the Company's operations. On March 16, 1996 the
Company repaid $1,250,000 of its long-term debt. The Company has reduced its
overall bank debt by $5,224,000 from September 30, 1995 to September 30, 1996.

Capital expenditures for the nine months ended September 30, 1996 decreased to
$227,000 from $941,000 in 1995. The decrease is primarily due to Varon, which in
1995 had invested in equipment for its new Honduran plant.

The Company expects that cash on hand, cash from operations, and borrowings
under its revolving credit agreement will be sufficient to fund current
operations and to enable the Company to meet its obligations as they become due.

EFFECT OF INFLATION AND SEASONALITY

The Company believes that inflation will not significantly effect its profit
margins, or have a material effect on the prices of other goods and services
used in its business operations. Further, in connection with increases in wool
and cotton costs over the last several years, the Company has increased offshore
production.

Sales of women's and children's outerwear are seasonal. Historically, Andy
Johns, Mackintosh, M&L and Varon have significantly higher revenues in the third
and fourth quarters than in the first and second quarters. Therefore, the
results of any interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results
which might be expected during a full year. Additionally, there is a risk
inherently related to the outerwear industry, resulting from dependence on
consumer reactions to weather patterns, which have recently had a material
effect on the Company's sales and profitability.
