Item 1.  Financial Statements (continued)

         Danskin, Inc. and Subsidiaries 
         Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)
         ------------------------------------------

     1.     In the opinion of the management of Danskin, Inc. and Subsidiaries
            (the "Company"), the accompanying Consolidated Condensed Financial
            Statements have been presented on a basis consistent with the
            Company's fiscal year financial statements and contain all
            adjustments (all of which were of a normal and recurring nature)
            necessary to present fairly the financial position of the Company as
            of September 27, 1997, as well as its results of operations for the
            fiscal three and nine month periods ended September 27, 1997 and
            September 28, 1996 and its cash flows for the nine months ended
            September 27, 1997 and September 28, 1996. Certain information and
            footnote disclosures normally included in annual financial
            statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
            principles have been condensed or omitted. Operating results for
            interim periods may not be indicative of results for the full fiscal
            year.

     2.     On May 19, 1997, the Company and Danskin Investors, LLC (the
            "Investor"), a company newly formed by an investment group led by
            Onyx Partners, Inc., entered into an agreement pursuant to which,
            under certain circumstances, the Investor would make an equity
            investment in the Company.

            On March 27, 1997 the Company entered into a Sixth Amendment to the
            Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement (the "First Union
            Loan and Security Agreement") with First Union National Bank ("First
            Union") which, among other matters, required the Company to pay
            First Union an additional equity fee of $3,000,000 in 2002 (the
            "Additional Equity Fee") unless the Company obtained at least
            $6,000,000 of net equity proceeds prior to August 31, 1997. By
            letter agreement dated as of June 17, 1997, First Union extended
            this August 31, 1997 deadline to December 1, 1997. In addition, by
            letter dated July 2, 1997, First Union (i) waived compliance with
            the covenant requirements relating to sales of inventory, and (ii)
            amended the financial covenants of the First Union Loan and Security
            Agreement. Availability under the First Union Loan and Security
            Agreement in excess of utilization was $3,398,000 as of September
            27, 1997.

            On August 28, 1997, First Union, the Company and the Investor
            entered into a letter agreement which among other things, provided
            for (i) the purchase by the Investor of certain notes executed by
            the Company and payable to First Union under the First Union Loan
            and Security Agreement in the approximate principal amount of
            $21.265 million (the "Term Loan") , (ii) the restructuring of First
            Union's revolving credit commitments to the Company (the "Revolving
            Credit Facility") pending a contemplated refinancing thereof, and
            (iii) the disposition of the warrants ( the "Warrants") issued to
            First Union in June 1995 in connection with a prior restructuring of
            the Company's obligations to First Union.

            On August 28, 1997, the Company also agreed to the terms of a
            Memorandum of Understanding with the Investor pursuant to which the
            Investor would make a capital investment in the Company. In
            accordance with the terms and conditions of the Memorandum of
            Understanding, the Investor would (i) contribute the $21.265 million
            face amount of the Term Loan to the Company and (ii) invest an
            additional $4 million cash in the Company (collectively, the
            "Capital Infusion"). In exchange for the Capital Infusion, it was
            agreed that the Investor would receive (a) $15 million face amount
            of debt (the "Subordinated Debt"), subordinated only to the
            Company's obligations to First Union under the Revolving Credit
            Facility, and (b) convertible preferred stock of the Company having
            a liquidation preference of $500,000 (the "Investor Preferred
            Stock"). The Memorandum of Understanding further provided that the
            Company would repay all principal and accrued but unpaid interest
            under the Revolving Credit Facility with the proceeds from a new
            revolving credit facility (the "New Revolving Credit Facility") and
            term

            loan (the "New Term Loan") to be provided by a new lender.

            The conditions to the closing of the purchase of the Term Loan
            included, among others, requirements that (i) the Investor shall
            have (x) entered into an intercreditor agreement with First Union
            providing for the subordination of the Company's obligations to the
            Investor under the Term Loan, the collateral securing such
            obligations, and any new debt securities issued by the Company to
            the Investor, to the Company's obligations under the Revolving
            Credit Facility, and (y) made a $4 million cash equity or interim
            debt investment in the Company and (ii) the Company shall have (a)
            provided a release to First Union, and (b) entered into an amendment
            to the First Union Loan and Security Agreement as described below.
            All deferred or accrued and unpaid interest, fees (other than the
            Additional Equity Fee) and expenses owed by the Company to First
            Union in connection with the Term Loan were to be paid at the
            closing of the Investor's purchase of the Term Loan (the "Term Loan
            Closing"). In addition, the Company was obligated to pay First Union
            a fee of $250,000 in connection with the transaction.

            Pursuant to certain letter agreements, First Union, subject to the
            terms and provisions of the First Union Loan and Security Agreement,
            agreed to make overadvances (collectively, the "Overadvance")
            available to the Company in varying amounts up to a maximum
            aggregate principal amount equal to $1,500,000 at any one time
            outstanding for borrowings on or before August 28, 1997. First Union
            also agreed to continue to make the Overadvance available to the
            Company in varying amounts up to a maximum aggregate principal
            amount not to exceed $2.0 million through October 31, 1997.

            On September 22, 1997, the Company consented to the assignment to
            the Investor of approximately $21.265 million face amount (the "Loan
            Amount") of the Term Loan. In addition, at the Term Loan Closing,
            the Revolving Credit Facility was amended to, among other things,
            (i) adjust the applicable interest rates, (ii) reset the maturity
            date for such Facility to March 31, 1998 and (iii) eliminate the
            Additional Equity Fee.

            In accordance with the terms of a certain Securities Purchase
            Agreement, dated September 22, 1997, entered into by the Company and
            the Investor (the "Securities Purchase Agreement"), the Investor,
            and certain other persons, contributed to the Company in the
            aggregate (a) the Loan Amount and (b) $4 million in cash (together,
            the "Capital Contribution") in exchange for (i) the Subordinated
            Debt and (ii) the Investor Preferred Stock (together the
            "Securities") of the Company. The Investor funded the Capital
            Contribution through capital contributions made to it by its members
            and $544,129 paid by Oppenheimer Bond Fund for Growth to the Company
            in exchange for a portion of the Securities.

            In connection with the closing of the Capital Contribution, the
            Board of Directors of the Company accepted the resignations of
            Patricia Patterson, John Burden and Edwin Dean as directors of the
            Company and elected Andrew Astrachan, Nina McLemore, Gabriel Brener
            and James P. Jalil as directors.

            In connection with the closing of the Capital Contribution, the
            Board of Directors approved amendments to both the Certificate of
            Incorporation and the By-laws of the Company to effectuate
            agreements reached between the Company and the Investor, including,
            among other things, increasing the number of authorized shares of
            its common stock to 100,000,000 and removing the provisions for a
            classified Board of Directors (the "Certificate Amendments").

         ------------------------------------------

            In addition, in connection with the closing of the Capital
            Contribution, the Company announced that (a) its Board of Directors
            declared a stock dividend on the Common Stock equal to one share of
            Common Stock for each 11.99 shares of Common Stock held of record as
            of the close of business on September 22, 1997 (these shares were
            retroactively applied in the financial statements for the earnings
            per share calculation), (b) its Board of Directors redeemed the
            Rights issued pursuant to the Rights Agreement, dated as of June 5,
            1996, between the Company and First Union, as Rights Agent, for $.01
            per right in cash to holders of Common Stock held of record as of
            the close of business on September 22, 1997, and (c) it will offer
            to its shareholders, including the Investor, the right to purchase,
            pro rata, 10 million shares of Common Stock at a per share price of
            $0.30 (the "Rights Offering"). The Investor will stand by to
            purchase any shares of Common Stock offered in the Rights Offering
            and not purchased by other shareholders of the Company.


            Also in connection with the closing of the Capital Contribution,
            3,291,797 stock options were granted to certain key personnel of the
            Company at an exercise price of $0.30 (the "Key Personnel Stock
            Opitons"), 1,845,899 of which were exercisable immediately. The
            balance of the Key Personnel Stock Options generally vest over a
            three year period and are, under certain circumstances, exercisable
            through September 22, 2004.

            The recognized gain on the transactions described in Note 2 above
            (the "Transaction") of $5.2 million represents the difference
            between (a) the recorded value of the Term Loan and (b) the fair
            value of the Subordinated Debt and the Investor Preferred Stock,
            less the write-off of deferred finance charges relating to the First
            Union Loan and Security Agreement and the costs incurred in
            connection with the Transaction. This gain will be applied against
            the Company's net operating loss carryforward which is fully
            reserved for. Any remaining net operating loss carryforward
            available after offset may be subject to limitation under the change
            of control provisions of the Internal Revenue Code.

      3.    Pursuant to a certain Warrant Purchase Agreement, dated as of
            September 22, 1997 (the "Purchase Date"), by and between Donald
            Schupak ("Schupak"), Chairman of the Board of Directors, and the
            Company, Schupak purchased a warrant (the "Schupak Warrant") to
            purchase up to 5,372,315 shares of Common Stock, par value $.01 per
            share, subject to adjustment (the "Warrant Shares") for an aggregate
            purchase price of $1,611,694.50 (computed on the basis of $.30 a
            share), subject to adjustment. In consideration of the sale of the
            Schupak Warrant by the Company to Schupak, Schupak paid the Company
            $100,000 (the "Warrant Price"). On the Purchase Date, Schupak (x)
            paid $20,000 of the Warrant Price to the Company in cash and (y)
            delivered to the Company a seven year promissory note of Schupak in
            the amount of $80,000 (the "Promissory Note"). The outstanding
            principal balance of the Promissory Note bears interest at a rate of
            6.55% per annum, to be paid annually on the anniversary of the
            Purchase Date. The Schupak Warrant may be exercised, in whole at any
            time or in part from time to time, commencing on the date of
            effectiveness of an amendment to the Company's Certificate of
            Incorporation increasing the number of its authorized shares and
            prior to 5:00 p.m., Eastern Standard Time, on September 22, 2004.
            The value of the Schupak Warrant in the financials is based upon an
            independent appraisal.

      4.    Effective September 18, 1997, the Executive Committee of the Board
            of Directors of the Company amended the Company's Stock Option Plan
            to clarify that the Board of Directors retains the discretion to
            determine the fair value of the Common Stock with respect to
            periods when the Common Stock is not actively traded on NASDAQ or
            any other national exchange or under circumstances where significant
            transactions in the Common Stock have occurred outside traditional
            trading venues.

            Effective October 1, 1997, a total of 239,943 options were repriced
            with an exercise price of 62.5 cents. All participants granted
            options prior to this date, with the exception of certain executives
            and outside directors, were given the opportunity to

            exchange previous grants, which were all originally granted at
            higher exercise prices (ranging from $1.875 to $4).

            Under provisions of the Company's Stock Option Plan, as a result of
            the change in control of the Company, 33,265 options which were not
            vested on or prior to such change of control, have become fully
            vested.

     5.     Effective October 8, 1997 (the "Closing Date"), the Company replaced
            its former financing arrangements with First Union with a new loan
            and security agreement (the "Loan and Security Agreement") with
            Century Business Credit Corporation ("CBCC" or the "Lender") which
            matures on October 8, 2002. Proceeds of the Loan and Security
            Agreement were used to pay all of the Company's indebtedness to
            First Union, and to establish working capital lines of credit.

            Pursuant to and in accordance with its terms, the Loan and Security
            Agreement provides the Company with a term loan facility in the
            aggregate principal amount of $10 million (the "Term Loan Facility")
            and a revolving credit facility, including a provision for the
            issuance of letters of credit (the "Revolving Credit Facility")
            generally in an amount not to exceed the lesser of (a) $45 million
            less the aggregate outstanding principal balance under the Term Loan
            Facility, or (b) a formula amount based upon the Company's available
            inventory and accounts receivable levels, minus certain
            discretionary reserves. The Company's obligations to CBCC under the
            Loan and Security Agreement are generally secured by a first
            priority security interest in all present and future assets of the
            Company. The Loan and Security Agreement contains certain
            affirmative and negative covenants including, maintenance of
            tangible net worth and a limitation on capital expenditures,
            respectively. In connection with the closing on the Loan and
            Security Agreement, the Company paid CBCC a facility fee equal to
            $300,000.

            On the Closing Date, two term loans were advanced to the Company in
            accordance with the terms of the Term Loan Facility. A term loan in
            the original principal amount of $5 million was advanced to the
            Company and is, with respect to principal, payable in thirty (30)
            consecutive monthly installments commencing on the first day of the
            first month following the first anniversary of the Closing Date. A
            second term loan in the original principal amount of $5 million was
            advanced to the Company and is, with respect to principal, payable
            in eighteen (18) consecutive monthly installments commencing on the
            first day of the forty-third (43) month following the Closing Date.
            At the Closing Date, and after the satisfaction in full of the
            Company's obligations to First Union, availability under the
            Revolving Credit Facility was approximately $15 million.

            Interest on the Company's obligations under the Loan and Security
            Agreement generally accrues at a rate per annum equal to the sum of
            the Prime Rate plus one half of one (1/2%) percent and is payable
            monthly. Interest may also accrue at a rate per annum equal to the
            sum of the Eurodollar Rate, as defined in the Loan and Security
            Agreement, plus two and three quarters percent (2- 3/4%) .

     6.     In accordance with the terms of the Securities Purchase Agreement,
            upon the Closing Date, the Investor Preferred Stock and the
            Subordinated Debt were, by their terms, automatically exchanged for
            (a) $12 million stated value of Series D Redeemable Cumulative
            Convertible Preferred Stock (the "Series D Stock") of the Company,
            (b) a seven year warrant to purchase 10

         Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)
         ------------------------------------------

            million shares of Common Stock at a per share price of $0.30 (the
            "Warrants"), and (c) a $3 million aggregate principal amount
            subordinated note of the Company (the "Remaining Subordinated
            Debt").

            The 2,400 shares of Series D Stock are convertible into Common
            Stock, at the option of the holder and, in certain circumstances,
            mandatorily, at an initial conversion rate of 16,666.66 shares of
            Common Stock for each share of the Series D Stock so converted,
            subject to adjustment in certain circumstances. The terms of the
            Series D Stock also provide that upon the seventh anniversary of the
            date of its issuance, the Series D Stock shall be redeemed by the
            Company for an amount equal to the sum of (x) $5,000 per share (as
            adjusted for any combinations, divisions or similar
            recapitalizations affecting the shares of Series D Stock), plus (y)
            all accrued and unpaid dividends on such shares of Series D Stock to
            the date of such redemption. Holders of the Series D Stock are
            entitled to vote, together with the holders of the Common Stock and
            any other class of series of stock then entitled to vote, as one
            class on all matters submitted to a vote of stockholders of the
            Company, in the same manner and with the same effect as the holders
            of the Common Stock. In any such vote each share of issued and
            outstanding Series D Stock shall entitle the holder thereof to one
            vote per share for each share of Common Stock that would be obtained
            upon conversion of all of the outstanding shares of Series D Stock
            held by such holder, rounded up to the next one-tenth of a share.
            Therefore, the exchange of the Series D Stock for the Subordinated
            Debt was highly dilutive of existing holders of Common Stock.
            Holders of the Series D Stock are also entitled to designate a
            majority of the directors to the Board of Directors of the Company.
            The Series D Stock has an 8% annual dividend rate, payment of which
            is deferred through December 31, 1999, and a seven year maturity.
            If, for any fiscal year beginning with the fiscal year ended
            December 31, 1999, the Company meets certain agreed upon financial
            targets, all accrued dividends for such fiscal year will be forgiven
            and the Series D Stock will automatically convert into 40 million
            shares of Common Stock. The Remaining Subordinated Debt bears
            interest, commencing on December 22, 1997, at the rate of 8% per
            annum.

     7.     On August 6, 1996, the Company issued its 10% Convertible Preferred
            Stock (the "10% Cumulative Preferred Stock") having a liquidation
            preference of $5,000,000, in exchange for the convertible
            subordinated debenture previously outstanding. The 10% Cumulative
            Preferred Stock was entitled to vote on an as converted basis, and
            was convertible into 4,403,339 shares of Common Stock at a
            conversion price of $1.14 per share following the "reset" of such
            conversion price that took place on August 6, 1997. Holders of the
            10% Cumulative Preferred Stock had the right to vote separately as a
            class for the election of one Director. The director previously
            elected to the Board of Directors of the Company in this capacity
            resigned in May 1997. The Company had the right to make quarterly
            dividend payments by issuing additional shares of Common Stock in
            lieu of cash and did so in March 1997 by issuing 56,689 shares at
            $2.205 per share and in June 1997 by issuing 102,881 shares at $1.21
            per share. By agreement of the Company and the holder of the 10%
            Cumulative Preferred Stock, the issuance in June 1997 of Common
            Stock in lieu of cash was rescinded. The Company did not take action
            with respect to the dividend payment which was due on September 1,
            1997. In connection with the closing of the Capital Contribution,
            the holder of the 10% Cumulative Preferred Stock exchanged such
            preferred stock and any accrued but unpaid dividends, for 3,436,214
            shares of Common Stock and certain other rights, including the right
            to participate in the purchase of the securities issued to the
            Investor on the same terms as the Investor. Thereupon, the 10%
            Cumulative Preferred Stock was canceled and retired.

     8.     On May 9, 1997, the Company received notification from the Nasdaq
            Stock Market, Inc. ("NASDAQ"), that it would delist the Company's
            common stock from the Nasdaq SmallCap Market effective at the close
            of business on May 16, 1997 because of the Company's non- compliance
            with NASDAQ's minimum capital and surplus requirement. The Company
            appealed NASDAQ's decision, and after an oral hearing held on June
            19, 1997, the Company was notified that its appeal had been denied.
            The Company's common stock was delisted effective June 27, 1997. The
            Company's common stock is presently traded in the over-the-counter
            market.

     10.    The Company is party to certain legal proceedings arising in the
            ordinary course of its business. Management believes that the
            ultimate resolution of these proceedings will not, in the aggregate,
            have a material adverse impact on the financial condition, results
            of operations, liquidity or business of the Company.

     11.    The Company's income tax provision rates differed from federal
            statutory rates due to the change in valuation allowance and the
            effect of state taxes for the three and nine months ended September
            1997 and 1996. The breakdown of income tax expense between current
            tax expense and deferred tax expense is not available for the three
            months ended September 1996 and 1997. No allocation between current
            and deferred income taxes was made during the three and nine months
            ended September 1997 and 1996, as such amounts would not be
            considered material to the Company's consolidated financial
            position.

            The Company has been selected for audit by certain Federal and
            foreign tax authorities, the resolution of which cannot be
            determined at this time. Management believes that any possible
            ultimate liability from these audits will not materially affect the
            consolidated financial position or results of operations of the
            Company.

     12.    Effective April 15, 1997, the Company curtailed participation in and
            froze the accrual of benefits under the Pennaco Hosiery Division of
            Danskin, Inc. Hourly Employees' Pension Plan (the "Pension Plan").
            Because of the curtailment, no person who is not presently a
            "Participant" (as defined) in the Pension Plan, may become a
            participant after April 15, 1997 and no "Credited Service" (as
            defined) shall be granted to any participant after such date.
            Therefore, the Company will not accrue any additional liability
            under the Pension Plan.

     13.    Non-recurring charges of $300,000 consisted of certain executive
            employee severance costs.

        Cautionary Statements
        ---------------------

      Certain statements contained in the discussion below, including, without
      limitation, statements containing the words "believes," "anticipates,"
      "expects," and words of similar import, constitute "forward-looking"
      statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Reform Act of
      1995. Such forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks,
      uncertainties and other factors that may cause the actual results,
      performance or achievements of the Company, or industry results, to be
      materially different from any future results, performance or achievements
      expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Such factors
      include, among others, the following: the effects of future events on the
      Company's financial performance; the risk that the Company may not be able
      to finance its planned growth; risks related to the retail industry in
      which the Company competes, including potential adverse impact of external
      factors such as inflation, consumer confidence, unemployment rates and
      consumer tastes and preferences; and the risk of potential increase in
      market interest rates from current rates. Given these uncertainties,
      current and prospective investors are cautioned not to place undue
      reliance on such forward-looking statements. The Company disclaims any
      obligation to update any such factors or to publicly announce the result
      of any revisions to any of the forward-looking statements contained herein
      to reflect future events or developments.

      The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with
      the Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements, related notes and other
      information included in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q (operating data
      for Danskin include operating data for the Company's retail activities).

      Change in Year End
      ------------------

      As of December 1995, the Company changed its fiscal year end to the last
      Saturday in December from the last Saturday in March.

      Results of Operations
      ---------------------

      Comparison of the Three and Nine months of Year Ended December 1997 with
      the Three and Nine months of Year Ended December 1996.

      Net Revenues:

      Net revenues amounted to $32.7 million for the three months ended
      September 1997, a decrease of $2.1 million, or 6.0%, from the prior year
      three months ended September 1996. Net revenues for the nine months ended
      September 1997 amounted to $93.0 million, a decrease of $2.9 million, or
      3.0%, from $95.9 million the same prior year period. Wholesale revenues
      for the Company decreased $1.8 million for the three month period and
      declined $2.3 million for the nine month period. Retail volume decreased
      $0.3 million for the three month period ending September 1997 and $0.6
      million for the nine month period ending September 1997.

      Danskin activewear net revenues, which includes the Company's retail
      operations, amounted to $22.5 million for the three months ended September
      1997, an increase of $0.1 million, or 0.4%, from $22.4 million in the
      prior three months ended September 1996, and increased $3.2 million, to
      $63.8 million, or 5.3%, for the nine month period ended September 1997
      over the same prior year period. Comparable retail store sales declined
      11.9% for the three months ended September 1997 and declined 9.1% for the
      nine month period ending September 1997. The Company continues its efforts
      to improve store product offerings, renegotiate existing leases and
      streamline store operations. Marketing of activewear wholesale products
      continues to address the industry's lifestyle casual wear trends, and to
      emphasize fashion and dance product offerings.

Item 2.  Managements' Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and 
         --------------------------------------------------------------- 
         Results of Operations
         ---------------------

     
      Pennaco legwear net revenues amounted to $10.2 million for the three
      months ended September 1997, a decline of $2.2 million, or 17.7%, from the
      three months ended September 1996, and declined $6.1 million, or 17.3%, to
      $29.2 million for the nine month period ending September 1997 from the
      same prior year period. This decline is indicative of a continued weak
      sheer hosiery market in the department store class of trade.

      Gross Profit:

      Gross profit decreased by $0.8 million, or 6.5%, to $11.6 million in the
      three months ended September 1997 from $12.4 million in the prior year
      period, and declined $1.6 million, or 4.8%, to $31.8 million for the nine
      month period ended September 1997 from the prior year period. Gross profit
      as a percentage of net revenues remained relatively flat in the three
      months ended September 1997, but decreased to 31.8% for the nine months
      ended September 1997 from 33.4% in the same prior year period.

      Gross margins for activewear were 38.7% for the three months ended
      September 1997 versus 41.1% for the three months ended September 1996, and
      37.8% for the nine month period ended September 1997 versus 39.6% for the
      same prior year period. This three and nine month decrease was primarily
      attributable to closeout sales, customer markdown allowances from prior
      seasons and incremental private label programs.

      Legwear gross profit increased to 28.4% in the three months ended
      September 1997 from 25.8% in the prior period, but declined to 26.4% for
      the nine month period ending September 1997 as compared to 26.6% for the
      same prior year period. The September quarter increase is primarily due to
      improved margins in the Anne Klein brand. The nine month decrease of 0.2%
      is mainly due to closeout sales and the phasing out of a former licensed
      brand.

      Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

      Selling, general and administrative expenses, which include retail store
      operating costs, decreased by $0.3 million, or 2.9%, to $10.2 million, or
      31.2% of net revenues, in the three months ended September 1997, from
      $10.5 million, or 30.2% of net revenues for the three month period ending
      September 1996. For the nine month period ending September 1997, selling,
      general and administrative expenses decreased $1.3 million, or 4.1%, to
      $30.2 million, or 32.5% of net revenues compared to $31.5 million or 32.8%
      of net revenues for the nine month period ending September 1996. Selling,
      general and administrative expenses, excluding retail store operating
      costs, decreased $1.7 million, or 7.4%, to $21.4 million, or 23.0% of net
      revenues, in the nine months ended September 1997, from $23.1 million, or
      24.1% of net revenues in the same prior year period. The wholesale
      decrease in the September 1997 nine month period was principally a result
      of a reduction in print advertising costs, lower compensation expenses and
      a reduction in distribution costs.

      Operating Income/Loss:

      As a result of the foregoing, income from operations (i.e., income before
      interest expense, non-recurring charges, extraordinary items and income
      taxes) amounted to $1.4 million for the three months

        -------------

      ended September 1997, a decline of $0.5 million from the income of $1.9
      million for the three month period ending September 1996. For the nine
      month period ending September 1997, the Company generated operating income
      of $1.6 million compared to $1.9 million for the same prior year period.
      The Danskin wholesale business accounted for the majority of the operating
      income for the three and nine month periods.

      Interest Expense:

      Interest expense amounted to $1.3 million for the three months ended
      September 1997 and $1.2 million for the three months ended September 1996,
      and $3.7 million for the nine month period ending September 1997 and $3.6
      million for the nine month period ending September 1996. The Company's
      effective interest rate was 11.0% and 10.4% for the three months ended
      September 1997 and September 1996, and 11.0% and 10.5% for the nine months
      ended September 1997 and 1996, respectively. Increase of the effective
      interest rate over the prior year is principally due to the conversion of
      the 8% subordinated convertible debentures to equity.

      Non-recurring Charges:

      Non-recurring charges were $0.3 million for the three and nine month
      period ending September 1997. These charges consisted of certain executive
      employee severance costs.

      Extraordinary Gain From Early Retirement of Debt:

      The Company recognized a gain of $10.0 million, offset by the write-off of
      deferred financing fees associated with the First Union Loan and Security
      Agreement of $2.6 million and direct costs of the transaction of $2.2
      million, for the three and nine month period ending September 1997. The
      extraordinary gain is attributable to the discount associated with the
      early retirement of the First Union Term Loan of $21.3 million per the
      Letter Agreement dated August 28, 1997. This gain will be applied against
      the Company's net operating loss carryforward which is fully reserved
      for.

      Income Tax Provision (Benefit):

      The Company's income tax provision (benefit) rates differed from the
      Federal statutory rates due to the change in the deferred tax valuation
      allowance and the effect of state taxes for the three and nine months
      ended September 1997 and September 1996. The Company's deferred tax
      balance was $0 at both September 1997 and December 1996.

      Net Income (Loss):

      As a result of the foregoing, net income was $4.8 million for the three
      months ended September 1997, an increase of $4.3 million from a $0.5
      million net income in the three months ended September 1996, and $2.1
      million for the nine month period ending September 1997, an improvement of
      $4.1 million from the nine month period ending September 1996.

      Liquidity and Capital Resources

      The Company's primary liquidity and capital requirements relate to the
      funding of working capital needs, primarily inventory, accounts
      receivable, capital investments in operating facilities, machinery and
      equipment, and principal and interest payments on indebtedness. The
      Company's primary sources

      of liquidity have been from bank financing, issuance of convertible
      securities, vendor credit terms and internally generated funds.

      Net cash flow used in operations improved by $1.5 million to $4.4 million
      for the nine months ended September 1997, from a use of cash from
      operations of $5.9 million in the nine months ended September 1996,
      principally attributable to decreases in both legwear and activewear
      inventory levels offset by an increase in accounts receivables. After $0.2
      million used in capital expenditures and the net effect of the capital
      infusion of Danskin Investors, LLC (the "Investor"), a company newly
      formed by an investment group led by Onyx Partners, Inc., the Company's
      cash position increased $0.9 million to $2.1 million for the nine month
      period ending September 1997.

      Working capital decreased $3.1 million to $21.5 million at September 1997
      from $24.6 million at December 1996. Accounts receivable increased by
      $3.2 million, inventory levels decreased by $3.1 million and accounts
      payable decreased by $1.7 million offset by an increase of $2.7 million in
      the revolving loan balance and an increase in accrued expenses related to
      the equity deal consummation of the transactions contemplated by the
      Securities Purchase Agreement.

      On May 19, 1997, the Company and the Investor entered into an agreement
      pursuant to which, under certain circumstances, the Investor would make an
      equity investment in the Company.

      On March 27, 1997, the Company entered into a Sixth Amendment to the
      Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement (the "First Union Loan
      and Security Agreement") with First Union National Bank ("First Union")
      which , among other matters, required the Company to pay First Union an
      additional equity fee of $3,000,000 in 2002 (the "Additional Equity Fee"),
      unless the Company obtained at least $6,000,000 of net equity proceeds
      prior to August 31, 1997. By Letter Agreement, dated as of June 17, 1997,
      First Union extended this August 31, 1997 deadline to December 1, 1997. In
      addition, by letter dated July 2, 1997, First Union (i) waived compliance
      with the covenant requirements relating to sales of inventory, and (ii)
      amended the financial covenants of the First Union Loan and Security
      Agreement. Availability under the First Union Loan and Security Agreement
      in excess of utilization was $3,398,000 as of September 27, 1997.

      On August 28, 1997, First Union, the Company and the Investor entered into
      a letter agreement which among other things, provided for (i) the purchase
      by the Investor of certain notes executed by the Company and payable to
      First Union under the First Union Loan and Security Agreement in the
      approximate principal amount of $21.265 million (the "Term Loan") , (ii)
      the restructuring of First Union's revolving credit commitments to the
      Company (the "Revolving Credit Facility") pending a contemplated
      refinancing thereof, and (iii) the disposition of the warrants ( the
      "Warrants") issued to First Union in June 1995 in connection with a prior
      restructuring of the Company's obligations to First Union.

      On August 28, 1997, the Company also agreed to the terms of a Memorandum
      of Understanding with the Investor pursuant to which the Investor would
      make a capital investment in the Company. In accordance with the terms and
      conditions of the Memorandum of Understanding, the Investor would (i)
      contribute the $21.265 million face amount of the Term Loan to the Company
      and (ii) invest an additional $4 million cash in the Company
      (collectively, the "Capital Infusion"). In exchange for the Capital
      Infusion, it was agreed that the Investor would receive (a) $15 million
      face amount of debt (the "Subordinated Debt"), subordinated only to the
      Company's obligations to First Union under the Revolving Credit Facility,
      and (b) convertible preferred stock of the Company having a liquidation
      preference of $500,000 (the "Investor Preferred Stock"). The Memorandum of
      Understanding further provided that the Company would repay all principal
      and accrued but unpaid interest under the Revolving Credit Facility with
      the proceeds from a new revolving credit facility (the "New Revolving
      Credit Facility") and term loan (the "New Term Loan") to be provided by a
      new lender.

         of Operations
         -------------

      The conditions to the closing of the purchase of the Term Loan included,
      among others, requirements that (i) the Investor shall have (x) entered
      into an intercreditor agreement with First Union providing for the
      subordination of the Company's obligations to the Investor under the Term
      Loan, the collateral securing such obligations, and any new debt
      securities issued by the Company to the Investor, to the Company's
      obligations under the Revolving Credit Facility, and (y) made a $4 million
      cash equity or interim debt investment in the Company and (ii) the Company
      shall have (a) provided a release to First Union, and (b) entered into an
      amendment to the First Union Loan and Security Agreement as described
      below. All deferred or accrued and unpaid interest, fees (other than the
      Additional Equity Fee) and expenses owed by the Company to First Union in
      connection with the Term Loan were to be paid at the closing of the
      Investor's purchase of the Term Loan (the "Term Loan Closing"). In
      addition, the Company was obligated to pay First Union a fee of $250,000
      in connection with the transaction.

      Pursuant to certain letter agreements, First Union, subject to the terms
      and provisions of the First Union Loan and Security Agreement, agreed to
      make overadvances (collectively, the "Overadvance") available to the
      Company in varying amounts up to a maximum aggregate principal amount
      equal to $1,500,000 at any one time outstanding for borrowings on or
      before August 28, 1997. First Union also agreed to continue to make the
      Overadvance available to the Company in varying amounts up to a maximum
      aggregate principal amount not to exceed $2.0 million through October 31,
      1997.

      On September 22, 1997, the Company consented to the assignment to the
      Investor of approximately $21.265 million face amount (the "Loan Amount")
      of the Company's term loan obligations owing to First Union. In addition,
      at the Term Loan Closing, the Revolving Credit Facility was amended to,
      among other things, (i) adjust the applicable interest rates, (ii) reset
      the maturity date for such Facility to March 31, 1998 and (iii) eliminate
      the Additional Equity Fee.

      In accordance with the terms of a certain Securities Purchase Agreement,
      dated September 22, 1997, entered into by the Company and the Investor
      (the "Securities Purchase Agreement"), the Investor, and certain other
      persons, contributed to the Company in the aggregate (a) the Loan Amount
      and (b) $4 million (together, the "Capital Contribution") in exchange for
      (i) the Subordinated Debt and (ii) the Investor Preferred Stock (together
      with the Subordinated Debt, the "Securities") of the Company. The Investor
      funded the Capital Contribution through capital contributions made to it
      by its members and $544,129 paid by Oppenheimer Bond Fund for Growth to
      the Company in exchange for a portion of the Securities.

      In connection with the closing of the Capital Contribution, the Board of
      Directors of the Company accepted the resignations of Patricia Patterson,
      John Burden and Edwin Dean as directors of the Company and elected Andrew
      Astrachan, Nina McLemore, Gabriel Brener and James P. Jalil as directors.

      In connection with the closing of the Capital Contribution, the Board of
      Directors approved amendments to both the Certificate of Incorporation and
      the By-laws of the Company to effectuate agreements reached between the
      Company and the Investor, including, among other things, increasing the
      number of authorized shares of its common stock to 100,000,000 and
      removing the provisions for a classified Board of Directors (the
      "Certificate Amendments").

      In addition, in connection with the closing of the Capital Contribution,
      the Company announced that (a) its Board of Directors declared a stock
      dividend on the common stock of the Company equal to one share of common
      stock for each 11.99 shares of common stock held of record as of the close
      of business on September 22, 1997 (these shares were retroactively applied
      in the accompanying financial statements for the earnings per share
      calculation),(b) its Board of Directors redeemed the Rights issued
      pursuant to the Rights Agreement, dated as of June 5, 1996, between the
      Company and First Union Bank, as Rights Agent, for $.01 per right in cash
      to holders of common stock held of record as of the close of business on

      September 22, 1997, and (c) it will offer to its shareholders, including
      the Investor, the right to purchase, pro rata, 10 million shares of Common
      Stock at a per share price of $0.30 (the "Rights Offering"). The Investor
      will standby to purchase any shares of common stock offered in the Rights
      Offering and not purchased by other shareholders of the Company.

      Also in connection with the closing of the Capital Contribution, 3,291,797
      stock options were granted to certain key personnel of the Company at an
      exercise price of $0.30 (the "Key Personnel Stock Options"), 1,845,899 of
      which were exercisable immediately. The balance of the Key Personnel Stock
      Options generally vest over a three year period and are, under certain
      circumstances, exercisable through September 22, 2004.
      
      The recognized gain on the transactions described above (the
      "Transaction") of $5.2 million represents the difference between (a) the
      recorded value of the Term Loan and (b) the fair value of the Subordinated
      Debt and the Investor Preferred Stock, less the write-off of deferred
      finance charges relating to the First Union Loan and Security Agreement
      and the costs incurred in connection with the Transaction. This gain will
      be applied against the Company's net operating loss carryforward which is
      still fully reserved for. Any remaining operating loss carryforward
      available after offset may be subject to limitation under the change of
      control provisions of the Internal Revenue Code.

      Pursuant to a certain Warrant Purchase Agreement, dated as of September
      22, 1997 (the "Purchase Date"), by and between Donald Schupak ("Schupak"),
      Chairman of the Board of Directors, and the Company, Schupak purchased a
      warrant (the "Warrant") to purchase up to 5,372,315 shares of Common
      Stock, par value $.01 per share, subject to adjustment (the "Warrant
      Shares") for an aggregate purchase price of $1,611,694.50 (computed on the
      basis of $.30 a share), subject to adjustment. In consideration of the
      sale of the Warrant by the Company to Schupak, Schupak paid the Company
      $100,000 (the "Warrant Price"). On the Purchase Date, Schupak (x) paid
      $20,000 of the Warrant Price to the Company in cash and (y) delivered to
      the Company a seven year promissory note of Schupak in the amount of
      $80,000 (the "Promissory Note"). The outstanding principal balance of the
      Promissory Note bears interest at a rate of 6.55% per annum, to be paid
      annually on the anniversary of the Purchase Date. The Warrant may be
      exercised, in whole at any time or in part from time to time, commencing
      on the date of effectiveness of an amendment to the Company's Certificate
      of Incorporation increasing the number of its authorized shares and prior
      to 5:00 p.m., Eastern Standard Time, on September 22, 2004. The value of
      the Schupak Warrant in the financials is based upon an independent
      appraisal.

      Effective September 18, 1997, the Executive Committee of the Board of
      Directors of the Company amended the Company's Stock Option Plan to
      clarify that the Board of Directors retains the discretion to determine
      the fair value of the Common Stock with respect to periods when the Common
      Stock is not actively traded on NASDAQ or any other national exchange or
      under circumstances where significant transactions in the Common Stock
      have occurred outside of traditional trading venues.

      Effective October 1, 1997, a total of 239,943 options were repriced with
      an exercise price of 62.5 cents (the fair market value on such date). All
      participants granted options prior to this date, with the exception of
      certain executives and outside directors, were given the opportunity to
      exchange previous grants, which were all originally granted at higher
      exercise prices (ranging from $1.875 to $4).

      Under provisions of the Company's Stock Option Plan, as a result of the
      change in control of the Company, 33,265 options which were not vested on
      or prior to such change of control, have become fully vested.

      Effective October 8, 1997 (the "Closing Date"), the Company replaced its
      former financing arrangements with First Union with a new loan and
      security agreement (the "Loan and Security Agreement") with Century
      Business Credit Corporation ("CBCC" or the "Lender") which matures on
      October 8, 2002. Proceeds of the Loan and Security Agreement were used to
      pay all of the Company's indebtedness to First Union and to establish
      working capital lines of credit.

      Pursuant to and in accordance with its terms, the Loan and Security
      Agreement provides the Company with a term loan facility in the aggregate
      principal amount of $10 million (the "Term Loan Facility") and a revolving
      credit facility, including a provision for the issuance of letters of
      credit (the "Revolving

      Credit Facility") generally in an amount not to exceed the lesser of (a)
      $45 million less the aggregate outstanding principal balance under the
      Term Loan Facility, or (b) a formula amount based upon the Company's
      available inventory and accounts receivable levels, minus certain
      discretionary reserves. The Company's obligations to CBCC under the Loan
      and Security Agreement are generally secured by a first priority security
      interest in all present and future assets of the Company. The Loan and
      Security Agreement contains certain affirmative and negative covenants
      including, maintenance of tangible net worth and a limitation on capital
      expenditures, respectively. In connection with the closing on the Loan and
      Security Agreement, the Company paid CBCC a facility fee equal to
      $300,000.

      On the Closing Date, two term loans were advanced to the Company in
      accordance with the terms of the Term Loan Facility. A term loan in the
      original principal amount of $5 million was advanced to the Company and
      is, with respect to principal, payable in thirty (30) consecutive monthly
      installments commencing on the first day of the first month following the
      first anniversary of the Closing Date. A second term loan in the original
      principal amount of $5 million was advanced to the Company and is, with
      respect to principal, payable in eighteen (18) consecutive monthly
      installments commencing on the first day of the forty-third (43) month
      following the Closing Date. At the Closing Date, and after the
      satisfaction in full of the Company's obligations to First Union,
      availability under the Revolving Credit Facility was approximately $15
      million.

      Interest on the Company's obligations under the Loan and Security
      Agreement generally accrues at a rate per annum equal to the sum of the
      Prime Rate plus one half of one (1/2%) percent and is payable monthly.
      Interest may also accrue at a rate per annum equal to the sum of the
      Eurodollar Rate, as defined in the Loan and Security Agreement, plus two
      and three quarters percent (2-3/4%).

      In accordance with the terms of the Securities Purchase Agreement, upon
      the Closing Date, the Investor Preferred Stock and the Subordinated Debt
      were, by their terms, automatically exchanged for (a) $12 million stated
      value of Series D Redeemable Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock (the
      "Series D Stock") of the Company, (b) a seven year warrant to purchase 10
      million shares of Common Stock of the Company at a per share price of
      $0.30 (the "Warrants"), and (c) a $3 million aggregate principal amount
      subordinated note of the Company (the "Remaining Subordinated Debt").

      The 2,400 shares of Series D Stock are convertible into Common Stock, at
      the option of the holder and, in certain circumstances, mandatorily, at an
      initial conversion rate of 16,666.66 shares of Common Stock for each share
      of the Series D Stock so converted, subject to adjustment in certain
      circumstances. The terms of the Series D Stock also provide that upon the
      seventh anniversary of the date of its issuance, the Series D Stock shall
      be redeemed by the Company for an amount equal to the sum of (x) $5,000
      per share (as adjusted for any combinations, divisions or similar
      recapitalizations affecting the shares of Series D Stock), plus (y) all
      accrued and unpaid dividends on such shares of Series D Stock to the date
      of such redemption. Holders of the Series D Stock are entitled to vote,
      together with the holders of the Common Stock and any other class of
      series of stock then entitled to vote, as one class on all matters
      submitted to a vote of stockholders of the Company, in the same manner and
      with the same effect as the holders of the Common Stock. In any such vote
      each share of issued and outstanding Series D Stock shall entitle the
      holder thereof to one vote per share for each share of Common Stock that
      would be obtained upon conversion of all of the outstanding shares of
      Series D Stock held by such holder, rounded up to the next one-tenth of a
      share. Therefore, the exchange of the Series D Stock for the Subordinated
      Debt was highly dilutive of existing holders of Common Stock. Holders of
      the Series D Stock are also entitled to designate a majority of the
      directors to the Board of Directors of the Company. The Series D Stock has
      an 8% annual dividend rate, payment of which is deferred through December
      31,1999, and a seven year maturity. If, for any fiscal year beginning with
      the fiscal year ended December 31, 1999, the Company meets certain agreed
      upon financial targets, all accrued dividends for

      such fiscal year will be forgiven and the Series D Stock will
      automatically convert into 40 million shares of Common Stock. The
      Remaining Subordinated Debt bears interest, commencing on December 22,
      1997, at the rate of 8% per annum.

      On August 6, 1996, the Company issued its 10% Convertible Preferred Stock
      (the "10% Cumulative Preferred Stock") having a liquidation preference of
      $5,000,000, in exchange for the convertible subordinated debenture
      previously outstanding. The 10% Cumulative Preferred Stock was entitled to
      vote on an as converted basis, and was convertible into 4,403,339 shares
      of Common Stock at a conversion price of $1.14 per share following the
      "reset" of such conversion price that took place on August 6, 1997.
      Holders of the 10% Cumulative Preferred Stock had the right to vote
      separately as a class for the election of one Director. The director
      previously elected to the Board of Directors of the Company in this
      capacity resigned in May 1997. The Company had the right to make quarterly
      dividend payments by issuing additional shares of common stock in lieu of
      cash and did so in March 1997 by issuing 56,689 shares at $2.205 per share
      and in June 1997 by issuing 102,881 shares at $1.21 per share. The Company
      did not take action with respect to the dividend payment which was due on
      September 1, 1997. By agreement of the Company and the holder of the 10%
      Cumulative Preferred Stock, the issuance in June 1997 of Common Stock in
      lieu of cash was rescinded. In connection with the closing of the Capital
      Contribution, the holders of the 10% Cumulative Preferred Stock exchanged
      such preferred stock and any accrued by unpaid dividends for 3,436,214
      shares of Common Stock certain other rights, including the right to
      participate in the purchase of the securities issued to the Investor on
      the same terms as the Investor. Thereupon, the 10% Cumulative Preferred
      Stock was canceled and retired.


      Strategic Outlook

      The Company's business strategy over the next two to three years will be
      to better capitalize on the consumer recognition of the Danskin(R) brand
      and to develop new channels for distribution. Further, the Company is
      taking steps to evaluate its long term business prospects in the
      contracting sheer hosiery market, amid increased retailer demands for
      responsiveness. The Company intends to expand Danskin(R) and other product
      lines, pursue growth in international sales, selectively license the
      Danskin(R) name for additional product categories, and open additional
      full price Danskin(R) stores.

      There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to implement this
      strategy, particularly given the difficulty of predicting hosiery
      operations or, if implemented, that this strategy will be successful.

Item 2.  Changes in Securities and Uses of Proceeds
         ------------------------------------------

      The following is a description of all sales of equity securities by the
      Company during the quarterly period ended September 27, 1997 that were not
      registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities
      Act"). All of such sales were private placements made in reliance upon the
      exemption provided by Section 4(2) of the Securities Act, and no
      underwriters were involved in such placements.

      On September 22, 1997, pursuant to the terms of the Securities Purchase
      Agreement between the Company and the Investor, the Investor, and certain
      other persons, contributed to the Company the Capital Contribution in
      exchange for the Subordinated Debt and the Investor Preferred Stock. The
      Investor funded the Capital Contribution through capital contributions
      made to it by its members and $544,129 paid by Oppenheimer Bond Fund for
      Growth ("BFG") to the Company in exchange for a portion of the
      Subordinated Debt and the Investor Preferred Stock. In connection with the
      closing of the Capital Contributions, BFG exchanged the 10% Cumulative
      Preferred Stock of the Company held by it for 3,436,214 shares of Common
      Stock and certain other rights, including the right to participate in
      purchase of the Subordinated Debt and the Investor Preferred Stock on the
      same terms as the Investor.


      The terms of the Investor Preferred Stock provided that holders thereof
      had, among other rights, the right to elect four of nine directors to the
      Board of Directors of the Company.

      In accordance with the terms of the Securities Purchase Agreement, on the
      Closing Date, the Investor Preferred Stock and the Subordinated Debt were,
      by their terms, automatically exchanged for (a) 2,400 shares of the
      Series D Stock, (b) a seven year warrant to purchase 10 million shares of
      Common Stock at a per share price of $.30 (the "Warrants") and (c) a $3
      million aggregate principal amount subordinated note of the Company. The
      Series D Stock is convertible, at the option of the holder, and in certain
      circumstances, mandatorily, at an initial conversation rate of 16,666.66
      shares of Common Stock for each share of the Series D Stock so converted,
      and a per share conversion price of $.30, each of which is subject to
      adjustment in certain circumstances. The terms of the Series D Stock also
      provide that, upon the seventh anniversary of the date of its issuance,
      such stock shall be redeemed by the Company for an amount equal to the sum
      of (x) $5,000 per share (as adjusted for any combinations, divisions or
      similar recapitalizations affecting the shares of the Series D Stock),
      plus (y) all accrued and unpaid dividends on shares of such stock to the
      date of such redemption. Holders of the Series D Stock are entitled to
      vote, together with the holders of the Common Stock and any other class of
      series of stock then entitled to vote, as one class on all matters
      submitted to a vote of stockholders of the Company, in the same manner and
      with the same effect as the holders of the Common Stock. In any such vote
      each share of issued and outstanding Series D Stock shall entitle the
      holder thereof to one vote per share for each share of Common Stock that
      would be obtained upon conversion of all of the outstanding shares of
      Series D Stock held by such holder, rounded up to the next one-tenth of a
      share. Holders of the Series D Stock are also entitled to designate a
      majority of the directors to the Board of Directors of the Company. The
      Series D Stock has an 8% annual dividend rate, payment of which is
      deferred through December 31, 1999, and a seven year maturity. If, for any
      fiscal year beginning with the fiscal year ended December 31, 1999, the
      Company meets certain agreed upon financial targets, all accrued dividends
      for such fiscal year will be forgiven and the Series D Stock will
      automatically convert into 40 million shares of Common Stock at a
      conversion price of $.30 per share.

      The terms of the Warrants provide that they may be exercised, in whole at
      any time or in part from time to time, commencing on the Closing Date and
      prior to the close of business on the seventh anniversary thereof. The
      initial aggregate warrant price of $3,000,000 and the initial per share
      warrant price is $.30 per share, each of which is subject to certain
      anti-dilution adjustments. The aggregate warrant price and the per share
      warrant price may be paid (a) in cash, (b) by surrender to the Company of
      shares of Common Stock with a fair value on the date of exercise that is
      equal to the aggregate warrant price or per share warrant price, as the
      case may be, in respect of the number of Warrants exercised, (c) by


                                       22
<PAGE>


      surrender to the Company of warrants or (d) by a combination of (a), (b)
      and (c). The holder of the Warrants also has the right (the "Conversion
      Right") to convert the Warrant or any portion thereof into shares of
      Common Stock, but only if, at the time of such conversion, the per share
      warrant price shall be less than the current market price per share of
      Common Stock and the Warrants shall otherwise be exercisable.

      As described above, the Capital Contribution in exchange for which the
      Investor Preferred Stock and the Subordinated Debt were issued was used to
      reduce the amount of the Company's obligations to First Union pursuant to
      the term loan portion of the First Union Loan and Security Agreement.
