              NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 

     1.  The accompanying consolidated condensed  financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim
financial information. 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  the  Company,  the   accompanying
consolidated  condensed financial statements contain all the adjustments (all of
which were of  a normal recurring  nature, except as  noted below) necessary  to
present  fairly the financial  position of the  Company as of  March 30, 1996 as
well as its results of operations and cash flows for the periods ended March 30,
1996 and April  1, 1995.  The results  of operations  for the  quarter and  nine
months  ended March  30, 1996  reflect certain  reserves (including adjustments)
which were recorded in the  fourth quarter of fiscal  1996 which related to  the
second  and third quarters of fiscal 1996. Such reserves and adjustments reduced
gross  profit  as  originally  reported  by  $7.3  million  and  $14.0  million,
respectively,  pretax income  as originally reported  by $7.7  million and $18.7
million, respectively, and net income as originally reported by $4.8 million and
$11.5  million  for  the  quarter  and   nine  months  ended  March  30,   1996,
respectively.  Operating results  for interim periods  may not  be indicative of
results for the full fiscal year. The Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheet as of
July 1,  1995 has  been  derived from  the  audited Consolidated  Balance  Sheet
included in the Company's 10-K for the year then ended. For further information,
refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in
the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended July 1, 1995.

 
     2.  Certain  amounts  for  prior  periods  have  been  reclassified  to  be
comparable with the current period presentation.
 
     3. On  September  13, 1995  the  Company purchased  from  General  Electric
Capital  Corporation ('GECC') one-half of a  warrant to acquire 3,618,358 shares
of the Company's  common stock at  $.005 per  share (the Series  A Warrant)  for
36,183,580  or $20  per share (representing  1,809,179 shares).  The Company had
agreed to purchase  1,309,179 of the  remaining shares subject  to the Series  A
Warrant  in January  1996 for  an additional $26,183,580  or $20  per share. The
Company and GECC have  amended their agreement to  provide that the Company  has
the option, at its sole discretion, to repurchase the remaining 1,809,179 shares
of  common stock subject to the Series A Warrant at any time, on or before March
17, 1997 (in full but not in part),  by giving ten days written notice to  GECC.
The  purchase price for the remaining 1,809,179 shares should the Company decide
to exercise its option would be $43,420,296 ($24 per share). The purchase of the
Series A Warrant was funded  with the proceeds of  a five-year bridge loan  (the
'Bridge Loan') provided under the Company's Credit Agreement.
 
     4.  On October 16,  1995 the Company  sold 2, 500,000  shares of its common
stock in an underwritten public offering (the 'Offering'). Net proceeds from the
Offering were  approximately $51  million  and were  used to  repay  outstanding
amounts under the Bridge Loan and to repay certain amounts outstanding under the
term loan portion of the Company's Bank Credit Agreement.
 
     5.  On January 11, 1996,  the Company amended its  Bank Credit Agreement to
increase amounts  available  under  its  revolving loan  from  $105  million  to
approximately   $141   million  ('Amended   Bank  Credit   Agreement').  Amounts
outstanding under the Amended Bank Credit Agreement bear interest at the  bank's
base  rate  plus .75%  or  at LIBOR  plus  1.75%. Under  certain  conditions the
interest rate payable on  amounts outstanding under  the Company's amended  Bank
Credit Agreement can be reduced to as low as LIBOR plus .50%
 

     On  March 26,  1996, the  Company entered into  a $250  million Amended and
Restated Credit  Agreement with  its  existing banks  (the '250  Million  Credit
Agreement').  The $250 Million Credit Agreement provides the Company with a $250
million revolving line of credit and replaced the Amended Bank Credit Agreement.
Amounts outstanding under the $250 Million Credit Agreement bear interest at the
Bank's base rate or at LIBOR plus .75%. The interest rate payable on outstanding
indebtedness can be  reduced as  low as  LIBOR plus  .50% if  the Company  meets
certain  financial tests. Borrowing  under the $250  Million Credit Agreement is
secured by substantially  all of  the assets of  the Company.  The $250  Million
Credit  Agreement  requires  that  the  Company  meet  certain  financial  tests

and ratios  including,  (i) interest  and  lease coverage  ratio,  (ii)  minimum
adjusted  net  worth, (iii)  maximum total  debt to  EBITDA ratio,  (iv) minimum
EBITDA  and  (v)  maximum  capital  expenditures.  The  Company  repaid  amounts
outstanding  under the  term loan portion  of the Amended  Bank Credit Agreement
with amounts available  under the  $250 Million  Credit Agreement  on March  26,
1996.
 
     6.  On April  26, 1996, Herman's  Sporting Goods, Inc  . ('Herman's') filed
bankruptcy and on  May 2,  1996 announced their  liquidation. As  a result,  the
Company  recorded a special bad debt loss  of $11.6 million ($7.2 million net of
income tax benefit)  in the  third quarter of  fiscal 1996  attributable to  the
write-off  of uncollectible accounts receivable and  the write-down in the value
of Herman's common stock received as  a distribution to creditors from  Herman's
original  bankruptcy settlement. The special  bad debt loss includes anticipated
recoveries from  the Company's  credit insurance  policy of  approximately  $4.6
million.
 
     7. In March 1996, in conjunction with the refinancing of the Company's bank
credit agreement, the Company recorded a non-cash extraordinary charge of $1,359
(net  of  income tax  benefits  of $0.8  million)  related to  the  write-off of
deferred financing costs under the Amended Bank Credit Agreement.
 
     8. The Company's  provision for  income taxes differs  from U.S.  statutory
income  tax rates  due to  the impact of  state income  taxes in  excess of 35%,
non-deductible intangible amortization  and foreign  income taxes  in excess  of
35%, partially offset by certain tax credits.

     Net revenues increased 32.1% to a record $98.9 million in the third quarter
of  fiscal 1996  from $74.8  million in  the third  quarter of  fiscal 1995. The
increase in net revenues reflects  sales increases across all divisions.  Speedo
Division  net revenues increased 24.5% to $50.7  million in the third quarter of
fiscal 1996  compared to  the third  quarter  of fiscal  1995 primarily  due  to
increases  of 36.1% in  men's swim, 89.6% in  sportswear and Olympic merchandise
and 47.0% in fitness swimwear. Retail  Division net revenues increased 64.3%  to
$8.3 million. The Company had 100 stores open at the end of the third quarter of
fiscal  1996. The Company has six stores under construction that are expected to
open by June 30,  1996 for a  total 106 stores.  Designer Swimwear net  revenues
increased  21.8% to $30.0 million due to  increased sales of the Catalina brand.
White Stag/Skiwear Division net revenues increased  121% to $9.9 million in  the
third  quarter  of fiscal  1996 compared  to  the third  quarter of  fiscal 1995
representing sales to Wal-Mart. Net revenues for the first nine months of fiscal
1996 increased 29.8%  to $219.1 million  from $168.8 million  in the first  nine
months  of fiscal  1995. The  increase in  net revenues  for the  nine months is
attributable to an increase of 28.3%  in Speedo Division net revenues to  $115.2
million, an increase of 103.4% in Retail Division net revenues to $26.9 million,
an increase of 23.2% in Designer Swimwear Division net revenues to $53.9 million
and  an increase in  White Stag/Skiwear Division  net revenues of  4.6% to $23.2
million.

 

     Gross profit  for the  third  quarter of  fiscal  1996 increased  to  $30.2
million from $28.3 million in the third quarter of fiscal 1995. Gross profit for
the  first nine months of fiscal 1996  increased to $71.1 million from the $63.8
million recorded in the first nine months of fiscal 1995. The increase in  gross
profit  in the  third quarter of  fiscal 1996  compared to the  third quarter of
fiscal 1995 primarily reflects the increased sales volume noted above, partially
offset by the impact  of certain inventory  reserves (including adjustments)  of
$7.3 million and $14.0 million, respectively, that were recorded in fiscal 1996.
Gross  profit as a  percentage of net  revenues decreased to  30.6% in the third
quarter of fiscal 1996 compared  to 37.8% in the  third quarter of fiscal  1995.
Gross  profit as a percentage  of net revenues decreased  to 32.4% for the first
nine months of fiscal 1996 compared to 37.8% in the first nine months of  fiscal
1995.  The decrease in  gross profit as  a percentage of  net revenues primarily
reflects the impact  of the  reserves (including adjustments),  as noted  above,
partially  offset by a higher mix of Retail Division net revenues which generate
a higher gross profit margin than the wholesale division.

 

     Selling, general  and administrative  expenses increased  to $22.0  million
(22.3%  of net revenues) in the third  quarter of fiscal 1996 from $16.4 million
(21.9% of net revenues)  in the third  quarter of fiscal  1995. The increase  in
selling,  general and  administrative expenses for  the third  quarter of fiscal
1996 is primarily a result of an increase in advertising expenses of 46% to $5.2
million compared $3.2 million in

the third quarter of fiscal  1995. Selling, general and administrative  expenses
increased  to $56.5 million (25.8% of net  revenues) in the first nine months of
fiscal 1996 from $38.5 million (22.8% of net revenues) in the first nine  months
of fiscal 1995. The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses for
the  nine months reflects (i) certain reserves (including adjustments) primarily
related to  accounts receivable  that were  recorded in  fiscal 1996,  (ii)  the
higher advertising expenses noted above, (iii) higher sales volumes, (iv) higher
depreciation  and  amortization expenses  due to  the  increase in  fixed assets
associated with the roll out of the Retail Store Division and (v) the higher mix
of  Retail  Division  sales  which  require  a  higher  level  of  selling   and
administrative expenses than the wholesale divisions.

 
     Interest  expense  was $3.3  million in  the third  quarter of  fiscal 1996
compared to  $2.2  million  in  the third  quarter  of  fiscal  1995  reflecting
increased  working  capital  necessary  to support  the  32.1%  increase  in net
revenues, as noted above. Interest expense  for the first nine months of  fiscal
1996  was $8.2  million compared  to $4.6  million in  the first  nine months of
fiscal 1995. The  increase in  interest expense compared  to last  year for  the
first  nine months  resulted from  (i) the  borrowing under  the Bridge  Loan in
September 1996 to repurchase the Series A Warrant, (ii) additional borrowing for
the increase in  working capital  necessary to  support the  29.8% sales  growth
achieved  in the first nine months of  fiscal 1996 and for expected sales growth
in the fourth  quarter of  fiscal 1996  and, (iii) the  roll out  of the  retail
stores which reached 100 stores at the end of the third quarter of fiscal 1996.
 
     On  April  26,  1996,  Herman's  Sporting  Goods,  Inc.  ('Herman's') filed
bankruptcy and on  May 2,  1996 announced their  liquidation. As  a result,  the
Company  recorded a special bad debt loss  of $11.6 million ($7.2 million net of
income tax  benefits)  attributable  the  write-off  of  uncollectible  accounts
receivable  and write-down of the  value of Herman's common  stock received as a
distribution from Herman's original bankruptcy settlement. The special bad  debt
loss  is net of anticipated gross recoveries from the Company's credit insurance
policy of approximately $4.6 million.
 

     The provision (benefit)  for income taxes  in the third  quarter of  fiscal
1996 was $(2.5) million, an effective tax rate of 37.7% compared to $3.7 million
in  fiscal 1995,  an effective  tax rate of  38.2%. The  provision (benefit) for
income taxes for the first  nine months  of fiscal  1996 was  $(2.0) million, an
effective  tax rate of 39.0% compared to  $8.2 million, an effective tax rate of
39.7% for the first nine months of  fiscal 1995. The Company's tax rate  differs
from  the U.S.  federal statutory  tax rate of  35% due  to the  impact of state
income  taxes,  foreign  income  taxes  in  excess  of  35%  and  non-deductible
intangible amortization partially offset by the tax credits.

 
     The  extraordinary item of $1.4 million (net of income tax benefits of $0.8
million) reflects the non-cash write-off of deferred financing costs  associated
with  the refinancing of  the Company's previous bank  credit agreement in March
1996.
 

     The net  loss for  the third  quarter  of fiscal  1996 was  $(5.6)  million
compared  to net income of $6.0 million in the third quarter of fiscal 1995. The
net loss for the first nine months of fiscal 1996 was $(4.6) million compared to
net income  of $12.5  million  in the  first nine  months  of fiscal  1995.  The
decrease in net income for both the quarter and nine months reflects the special
bad  debt loss related to Herman's bankruptcy of $7.2 million (net of income tax
benefits of $4.4 million), the effect of the reserves (including adjustments) of
$18.7 million and  the extraordinary item  for early extinguishment  of debt  of
$1.4  million  partially offset  by  the income  tax  benefits reported  of $7.2
million, all as noted above.

 
CAPITAL RESOURCES AND LIQUIDITY
 
     On August  16,  1995,  consistent  with the  Company's  goal  of  providing
increased  shareholder  value, the  Company  declared its  first  quarterly cash
dividend of 1.25[c] per share, equivalent to  an annual rate of 5[c] per  share.
The  dividend payment of approximately  $223,000 was paid on  October 2, 1995 to
shareholders of record on August 30, 1995. The Company has since declared  three
quarterly  cash  dividends of  1.25[c] per  share. The  initiation of  a regular
quarterly cash  dividend totalling  5[c]  per share  per  year, is  expected  to
broaden the Company's shareholder base.
 
     On  September 13, 1995 the Company purchased  one half of a warrant for the
purchase of 3,618,358 shares of the  Company's common stock for $.005 per  share
(the 'Series A Warrant') from General Electric Capital Corporation ('GECC'). The
Series  A Warrant was issued in  conjunction with the original capitalization of
the Company  in  May  1990.  The  purchase price  was  $36,183,580  or  $20  per
 
                                       7

share (representing 1,809,179 shares of common stock). The Company and GECC have
amended  their agreement to provide that the Company has the option, at its sole
discretion, to repurchase the 1,809,179 shares  subject to the Series A  Warrant
at  any time, on or before  March 17, 1997 (in full  but not in part), by giving
ten days written notice to GECC. The purchase price for the remaining  1,809,179
shares  should the  Company decide to  exercise its option  would be $43,420,296
($24 per share).
 
     In October 1995 the Company sold 2,500,000 shares of its common stock in an
underwritten  public  offering.   Net  proceeds  from   the  ('Offering')   were
approximately  $51 million and  were used to repay  the amount outstanding under
the Bridge Loan and certain amounts  outstanding under the term loan portion  of
the Company's Credit Agreement.
 
     On  January  13,  1996,  the  Company  amended  its  Bank  Credit Agreement
('Amended Bank  Credit  Agreement')  to increase  amounts  available  under  its
revolving  loan.  As a  result of  the  amendment, the  maximum amount  of funds
available under the  Company's revolving  loan increased  to approximately  $141
million. Interest on amounts outstanding under the Amended Bank Credit Agreement
bore  interest at the Bank's base lending rate plus .75% or at LIBOR plus 1.75%.
Under certain conditions the interest rate payable on amounts outstanding  under
the  Company's Amended Bank Credit Agreement could be reduced to as low as LIBOR
plus .50%. On March 26, 1996 the Company entered into a $250,000,000 Amended and
Restated Credit  Agreement  (the  '$250 Million  Credit  Agreement'),  with  its
existing  banks. The $250  Million Credit Agreement provides  the Company with a
$250 million revolving loan with no required amortization payments. Interest  on
amounts  borrowed under the  $250 million Credit Agreement  bear interest at the
Bank's base rate or  at LIBOR plus .75%.  Under certain conditions the  interest
rate  payable on amounts outstanding under the $250 Million Credit Agreement can
be reduced to as low as LIBOR plus .50%.
 
     The Company is continuing to expand its channels of distribution by opening
additional Speedo  Authentic  Fitness  Retail  Stores.  The  cost  of  leasehold
improvements,  fixtures and working capital associated with the opening of a new
store is  approximately $310,000.  The Company  currently has  six stores  under
construction  (in addition to the 100 stores  currently open) for a total of 106
stores.
 
     The Company's liquidity requirements arise primarily from its debt  service
requirements  and the funding of the  Company's working capital needs, primarily
inventory and  accounts receivable.  The  Company's borrowing  requirements  are
seasonal,  with  peak working  capital needs  arising  at the  end of  the third
quarter and beginning  of the  fourth quarter of  the fiscal  year. The  Company
generates  nearly all of  its operating cash  flow in the  fourth quarter of the
fiscal year  reflecting third  and  fourth quarter  shipments  and the  sale  of
inventory  built during the first half of the fiscal year. The Company meets its
seasonal  working  capital  needs  by  utilizing  amounts  available  under  its
revolving  line of credit. The Company's  $250 Million Credit Agreement provides
for a revolving loan  facility in the  amount of $250  million with no  required
amortization  payments. The  Company's revolving loan  balance was approximately
$149.3  million  at  March  30,  1996.  At  March  30,  1996  the  Company   had
approximately  $95 million  of additional  credit available  under its revolving
loan facility.
 

     Cash used in operating activities for the first nine months of fiscal  1996
was  $(71.6) million compared  to $(46.5) million  for the first  nine months of
fiscal 1995.  The  increase  in  cash used  in  operating  activities  primarily
reflects  increased use  of working capital,  primarily in  accounts payable and
accrued liabilities reflecting the timing  of trade payments compared to  fiscal
1995.  Seasonal inventory increases were lower  than last year reflecting higher
shipments and improved inventory control. Accounts receivable increased compared
to last year reflecting the higher level of shipments in March 1996 compared  to
March 1995. Days sales outstanding improved to 100 days from 101 last year.

 
     The  Company  believes that  amounts  available under  its  existing credit
agreement combined with cash flow to be generated from future operations will be
sufficient  for  the  operations  of  the  Company  including  debt  repayments,
dividends and capital expenditures.
