Item 1. Financial Statements (continued)

Danskin, Inc. and Subsidiaries
Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements

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 June 26, 1999, as well as its results of
      operations and its cash flows for the fiscal three and six month periods
      ended June 26, 1999 and June 27, 1998, respectively. Certain information
      and footnote disclosures normally included in annual financial statements
      prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have
      been condensed or omitted. The Unaudited Consolidated Condensed Financial
      Statements should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Condensed
      Financial Statements, related notes and other information included in the
      Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the Fiscal Year Ended December
      26, 1998. Operating results for interim periods may not be indicative of
      results for the full fiscal year.

2.    Effective October 8, 1997 (the "Refinancing Closing Date"), the Company
      entered into a loan and security agreement (as subsequently amended, the
      "Loan and Security Agreement") with Century Business Credit Corporation
      ("CBCC" or the "Lender") which matures on October 8, 2002. Pursuant to and
      in accordance with its terms, the Loan and Security Agreement provides the
      Company with a term loan facility (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 undrawn
      availability, and a limitation on capital expenditures, respectively. The
      tangible net worth covenant is calculated by subtracting from total assets
      all intangible assets and total liabilities. The tangible net worth
      covenant stipulates that the Company must maintain a tangible net worth of
      not less than (a) $0.00 as of the end of each of the months of June, July,
      August, September, October and November of 1999, and (b) $2 million as of
      the end of December 1999 and each month thereafter. At June 26, 1999, the
      Company's tangible net worth was approximately $1.3 million. The undrawn
      availability covenant provides that the Company must have undrawn
      availability of at least $3 million as of the end of December 1999 and
      each month thereafter. Undrawn availability at June 26, 1999 was
      approximately $2.3 million. The Company expects to be in compliance with
      the

      foregoing covenants as a result of cash flow from operations and
      additional financing which the Company anticipates closing prior to
      December 31, 1999.

      On the Refinancing 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 which commenced on November 1, 1998. 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 May 1, 2001. In February
      1999, the Lender advanced a third term loan to the Company in the original
      principal amount of approximately $0.94 million which is, with respect to
      principal, payable in equal monthly installments of $15,715. The Company
      used the proceeds of such third term loan to purchase certain machinery
      and equipment for use in its operations.

      Pursuant to certain amendments to the Loan and Security Agreement executed
      in fiscal 1999, CBCC increased the Company's availability under the
      Revolving Credit Agreement by an amount not to exceed $5.76 million (the
      "Additional Collateral Amount"), in support of which certain shareholders
      and affiliates of the Company, and various third parties, have provided
      stand-by guarantees, as set forth below, and has provided the Company with
      $1.25 million (the "Overadvance Amount") of additional borrowing capacity.

3.    In connection with the availability of the Additional Collateral Amount,
      certain shareholders and affiliates of the Company, and various third
      parties, issued limited guarantees in favor of the Lender in an aggregate
      principal amount not to exceed $5.23 million (each, a "Guarantee,"
      together, the "Guarantees"). Pursuant to the terms of the Guarantees, each
      guarantor guarantees the performance of the Company's obligations under
      the Loan and Security Agreement, and the payment of any and all sums due
      and owing by the Company to the Lenders under such Agreement, in all
      cases, limited to the dollar amount of the Guarantee. In accordance with
      their terms, the Guarantees may be withdrawn at such time as the Company
      has availability under the Loan and Security Agreement in excess of $6
      million, without giving effect to the Additional Collateral Amount.

      In consideration for the issuance of the Guarantees, the Company has
      agreed (i) to issue warrants to each guarantor, and (ii) to pay to each
      guarantor interest on the amount of each Guarantee at a rate not to exceed
      the difference between (a) the Prime Rate minus 3% and (b) 10% per annum.
      Each warrant represents the right to purchase one share of Common Stock.
      The number of warrants issued to each guarantor is based upon a formula
      which takes into account the number of days that


                                       7
<PAGE>

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

      the Guarantee is in place. The exercise price of all warrants issued in
      consideration for a Guarantee shall be equal to $.01; provided, however,
      that such exercise price will be adjusted to the price prospective
      investors pay for equity in the Company's planned placement of additional
      equity as discussed below. See `Liquidity and Capital Resources'

4.    In accordance with the terms of a certain Securities Purchase Agreement
      dated September 22, 1997 (the "Securities Purchase Agreement") entered
      into by the Company and Danskin Investors, LLC. (the "Investor") the
      Company has issued $12 million stated value of Series D Redeemable
      Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock (2,400 shares) (the "Series D
      Stock") of the Company and a seven year warrant to purchase 10 million
      shares of Common Stock at a per share price of $0.30 (the "Warrant") to
      the Investor.

      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 or
      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 ending December 25, 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 Investor
      has agreed that, for the period beginning on the date of issuance of the
      Series D Stock and ending on December 31, 1999, all dividends accrued on
      the Series D Stock may be paid, at the option of the Company, in cash or
      in additional Common Stock. The issuance of such Common Stock to the
      Investor shall, in accordance with the agreement, constitute full payment
      of such dividend.

7.    The Company severed its relationship with Cathy Volker, the Company's
      former Chief Executive Officer, in June 1999. The Company's and Ms.
      Volker's respective rights and obligations under Ms. Volker's Employment
      Agreement, dated as of February 2, 1998, if any, are the subject of a
      pending arbitration.

      On November 25, 1996, the Company commenced suit against Herman Gruenwald,
      former President, Director and Principal shareholder of Siebruck Hosiery,
      Ltd. ("Siebruck") for damages in the amount of $1,450,000 in the Superior
      Court, Montreal. The claim relates to unreported sales in excess of $1.5
      million arising under a license agreement entered into by and between the
      Company and Siebruck, which expired on December 31, 1995. Siebruck was
      placed under the provision of the Canadian Bankruptcy and Insolvency Act.
      Mr. Gruenwald's statement of defense included a cross-demand against the
      Company wherein he is claiming damages to his reputation in the amount of
      Cdn. $3.0 million. A reasonable evaluation of the claim against the
      Company cannot be made at this time. However, the Company does not
      presently anticipate that the ultimate resolution of such claim will be
      material to its financial condition, results of operations, liquidity, or
      business of the Company.

      The Company is a party to a number of other 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.

8.    Non-recurring charges of approximately $1.0 million for the six months
      ended June 27, 1998 consisted of certain executive employee severance
      costs primarily relating to the termination of the former Chief Executive
      Officer of the Company.

9.    For the six months ended June 1999 and June 1998, basic and diluted net
      loss per share was computed based on weighted average common and common
      equivalent shares outstanding of 21,017,000 and 12,033,000, respectively.
      Common Stock equivalents are excluded from the basic and diluted net loss
      per share calculation for both fiscal periods because the effect would be
      antidilutive.

      At June 26, 1999, the Company had the following common shares and common
      share equivalents outstanding:

      Common Shares                                             21,022,000
      Preferred Stock                                           40,000,000
      Warrants/Options                                          24,044,000
                                                                ----------
      Total Shares and Share Equivalents Outstanding            85,066,000

10.   Effective December 26, 1998, the Company adopted SFAS No. 131 "Disclosure
      about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information." The Company is
      organized based on the products its offers. The Company presently operates
      under two operating segments: Danskin, which designs, manufactures,
      markets, and sells activewear, dancewear, bodywear, tights and exercise
      apparel through wholesale channels to retailers and through the Company's
      outlet and retail stores; and Pennaco, which currently designs,
      manufactures, and markets hosiery under the brand names Round-the-Clock
      (R) and Givenchy (R) . Pennaco also manufactures under private labels for
      select retailers.

      The Company evaluates performance based on profit or loss from operations
      before extraordinary items, interest expense and income taxes. The Company
      allocates corporate administrative expenses to each segment. For the six
      months ended June 1999, Danskin was allocated $1.9 million and Pennaco was
      allocated $1.0 million. For the six months ended June 1998, Danskin was
      allocated $1.9 million and Pennaco was allocated $1.6 million. The
      non-recurring charges of $1.0 million for June 1998 were allocated $0.6
      million to Danskin and $0.4 million to Pennaco. The Company does not
      allocate interest expense to the divisions.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
        Results of Operations

      Cautionary Statements

      Statements contained in the discussion below, and in future filings by the
      Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission, in the Company's
      press releases, and in oral statements made by or with the approval of the
      authorized personnel that relate to the Company's future performance,
      including, without limitation, statements containing the words "believes,"
      "anticipates," "expects," "projects," "currently envisions," and words of
      similar import, shall be deemed "forward-looking" statements within the
      meaning of the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation
      Reform Act of 1995, as a number of factors affecting the Company's
      business and operations could cause actual results to differ materially
      from those contemplated by the forward-looking statements. Such statements
      are based on current expectations and known and unknown risks,
      uncertainties and certain assumptions. These factors include, among
      others, changes in regional, global and economic conditions; risks
      associated with changes in the competitive marketplace, including the
      level of consumer confidence and spending and the financial condition of
      the apparel industry and the retail industry, as well as adverse changes
      in retailer or consumer acceptance of the Company's products as a result
      of fashion trends or otherwise and the introduction of new products or
      pricing changes by the Company's competitors; risks associated with the
      Company's dependence on sales to a limited number of large department and
      sporting goods store customers, including risks related to customer
      requirements for vendor margin support, and those related to extending
      credit to customers; risks associated with consolidations, restructurings
      and other ownership changes in the retail industry; uncertainties relating
      to the Company's ability to implement its growth strategies; risks
      associated with the ability of the Company and third party customers and
      suppliers to timely and adequately remediate any Year 2000 issues; and
      risks associated with changes in social, political, economic and other
      conditions affecting foreign sourcing. 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 Unaudited Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements, related notes
      and other information included elsewhere, in this quarterly report on Form
      10-Q (operating data includes operating data for the Company's retail
      activities) and with the

      Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December
      26, 1998.

      Results of Operations

      Comparison of the fiscal three and six month periods ended June 26, 1999
      with the fiscal three and six month periods ended June 27, 1998.

      Net Revenues:

      Net revenues amounted to $23.5 million for the three months ended June
      1999, a decrease of $2.9 million, or 11.0% from the prior year three
      months ended June 1998. Net revenues for the six months ended June 1999
      amounted to $47.7, a decrease of $7.0 million, or 12.8%, from the prior
      year six months ended June 1998.

      Danskin activewear net revenues, which include the Company's retail
      operations, amounted to $15.9 million for the three months ended June
      1999, a decrease of $1.5 million, or 8.6%, from $17.4 million in the prior
      year three months ended June 1998. Activewear revenues amounted to $32.5
      million for the six months ended June 1999, a decrease of $4.8 million, or
      12.9%, from $37.3 million in the prior year six month period. Revenues for
      the three and six month periods were adversely impacted by a decline in
      retail revenues and the discontinuance of the Dance France business in the
      fourth quarter of fiscal 1998, which accounted for approximately $0.4
      million of revenues in the prior year fiscal quarter, as well as a decline
      in the rate of fulfillment of customer orders.

      The Company's marketing of activewear wholesale products continues to
      address the trend toward casual wear and emphasizes fashion and dancewear
      product offerings complementing the Company's basic replenishment
      products. The Company believes that its recent fashion offerings and
      casual wear offerings have been well received by its customers. In
      addition, the Company continues to work with its major retail partners to
      increase the percentage of orders of basic product placed via electronic
      re-order/fulfillment programs (Electronic Data Interchange "EDI") in an
      effort to drive its replenishment business.

      In fiscal 1998, the Company restructured its activewear sales force to
      address the multiple channels of trade in which Brand Danskin product is
      sold. Specifically, each of the department store, sporting goods store and
      specialty store class of trade has a dedicated activewear sales force. As
      a further step, and to drive the volume in the specialty store class of
      trade, the Company recently converted to an independent commissioned sales
      representative strategy for such channel, and has contracted with
      independent, fully commissioned sales representatives and agents.


                                       13
<PAGE>

Danskin, Inc. and Subsidiaries

      The Company believes that this strategy will allow it to more effectively
      service and grow its specialty store account base resulting in increased
      revenues.

      Sales in the Company's retail stores were $3.7 million for the three-month
      period ended June 1999, compared to $4.6 million for the same prior year
      period, and were $7.6 million for the six-month period ended June 1999,
      compared to $9.1 million for the same prior year period. Comparable retail
      store sales declined 20.1% for the three months ended June 1999 and 15.9%
      for the six months ended June 1999. The decline in retail store sales is
      attributable to, among other factors, the continuing negative effects of
      the Company's retail inventory reduction plan and the disruptive impact of
      the implementation of a new inventory management system. The Company also
      continues to see the effects of the depressed retail environment in the
      Southern Florida/Orlando market. To address these declines, and to enhance
      the performance of its retail stores, the Company continues to improve
      store product offerings, to renegotiate existing leases to achieve optimum
      store size, and to streamline store operations to reduce store operating
      costs. In addition, the Company is taking the steps necessary to evaluate
      certain unprofitable or underperforming locations.

      Pennaco legwear revenues amounted to $7.7 million for the three months
      ended June 1999, a decline of $1.3 million, or 14.4%, from the prior year
      three month period. Revenues amounted to $15.2 million for the six months
      ended June 1999, a decline of $2.2 million, or 12.6%, from the six month
      period ended June 1998. The decline in legwear revenues over the prior
      year fiscal periods continues to reflect a confirmed weak sheer hosiery
      market in the department store class of trade, a continued softness in the
      Givenchy(R) sheer hosiery business, a decline in the Company's private
      label business in the quarter, and the expiration of the Anne Klein(R)
      legwear license at December 31, 1998, which contributed approximately $0.3
      million in net revenue in the 1998 fiscal quarter. These declines were
      partially offset by an increase in sales of the Company's
      Round-the-Clock(R) Take Two value pack, a program designed by the Company
      to address the effects of the overall decline in the sheer category on the
      Round-the-Clock(R) brand. The Company expects to continue to see increased
      revenues from this program as it expands distribution within the channel.
      Take Two value packs package two pairs of hosiery in a single package at a
      suggested retail lower than two pairs purchased individually.

      Gross Profit:

      Gross profit decreased by $3.8 million, or 36.6%, to $6.5 million for the
      three months ended June 1999. Gross profit decreased by $6.2 million, or
      29.8%, to $14.6 million for the six months ended June 1999 from $20.8
      million for the six months ended June 1998. Gross profit, as a percentage
      of net revenues, decreased to 30.7% in the six month period ended June
      1999 from 37.9% in the same prior year period.

      Activewear gross profit, as a percentage of net revenue, decreased to 30.0
      % for the three months ended June 1999 from 41.5% for the three months
      ended June 1998, and to 33.8% for the six months ended June 1999 from
      40.3% for the six months ended June 1998. The three and six month
      decreases were primarily a result of a lower sales mix of higher margin
      Brand Danskin basic product, increased sales of closeout merchandise,
      unfavorable manufacturing variances due to lower volumes, as well as
      markdowns taken in the Company's retail stores to stimulate sales and
      reduce inventory.

      Legwear gross profit, as a percentage of net revenue, decreased to 23.0%
      in the three months ended June 1999 from 33.8% in the prior fiscal year
      period, and decreased to 24.2% in the six months ended June 1999 from
      33.0% in the prior fiscal year period. The lower gross profit level is
      driven principally by the higher sales mix of lower margin
      Round-the-Clock(R) Take Two value pack product and legwear continuity
      programs, coupled with the decline in sales of the higher margin
      Givenchy(R) product and certain operating inefficiencies due to lower
      volume production.

      Selling, General and Administrative Expenses:

      Selling, general and administrative expenses, which include retail store
      operating costs, decreased $1.5 million, or 15.5%, to $8.4 million, or
      35.7% of net revenues, in the three months ended June 1999, from $9.9
      million, or 37.6% of net revenues for the three months ended June 1998.
      For the six-month period ended June 1999, selling, general and
      administrative expenses decreased $1.9 million, or 9.2%, to $18.7 million,
      or 39.2% of net revenues, from $20.6 million, or 37.6% of net revenues,
      for the six month period ending June 1998. The Company continues to
      scrutinize its selling, general and administrative expenses to obtain
      further reductions in such expenses.

      Operating Income/Loss:

      As a result of the foregoing, the loss from operations (i.e., income/loss
      before interest expense, non-recurring charges and income taxes) amounted
      to $1.9 million for the three months ended June 1999, a decline of $2.2
      million from the gain of $.3 million for the three months ended June 1998.
      The loss from operations amounted to $4.1 million for the six months ended
      June 1999, a decline of $4.3 million from a gain of $0.2 million for the
      prior fiscal year period.

      Interest Expense:

      Interest expense amounted to $0.7 million for the three months ended June
      1999 and $0.6 million for the prior fiscal year period. Interest expense
      amounted to $1.4 million for the six months ended June 1999 and $1.2
      million for the six months ended June 1998. The Company's effective
      interest rate was 9.2% and 9.9% for the three months ended June 1999 and
      June 1998, respectively, and 9.2% and 10.0% for the six months ended June
      1999 and June 1998, respectively.

      Non-recurring Charges:

      Non-recurring charges were $1.0 million for the six month period ending
      June 1998. These charges consisted of certain executive employee severance
      costs primarily relating to the replacement of the Chief Executive Officer
      of the Company in March 1998.

      Income Tax Provision (Benefit):

      The Company's income tax provision (benefit) rates differed from the
      Federal statutory rates due to the utilization of net operating losses,
      the effect of the Alternative Minimum Tax and the effect of state taxes
      for the three and six months ended June 1999 and June 1998. The Company's
      net deferred tax balance was $0 at both June 1999 and December 1998.

      Net Loss:

      As a result of the foregoing, the net loss was $2.7 million for the three
      months ending June 1999, a decline of $2.4 million compared to the net
      loss of $0.3 million for the three months ending June 1998. For the six
      months ended June 1999, the net loss was $5.5 million, compared to a net
      loss of $2.1 million for the prior year fiscal period.

      Year 2000 Readiness Disclosure

      The Company commenced a comprehensive program to replace its core
      management information systems in fiscal 1997. The program involves
      comprehensive changes to the Company's present hardware and software. In
      addition to providing certain competitive benefits, completion of the
      project will result in the Company's information systems being year 2000
      compliant. The planning stage of this project has been completed, as well
      as the systems development phase. Simulated implementation of certain of
      the key systems is currently in progress. At this time, management does
      not expect that the replacement of such systems will be fully implemented
      prior to year 2000. Therefore, the Company has assessed and remediated
      such systems for year 2000 compliance and is conducting comprehensive
      testing to ascertain whether such remediation was successful. It expects
      to complete such testing by September 30, 1999. There can be no assurance,
      however, that the Company's systems will be rendered year 2000 compliant
      in a timely manner, either through replacement or remediation, or that the
      Company will not incur significant unforeseen additional expenses to
      assure such compliance. Failure to successfully complete and implement the
      replacement project on a timely basis, or to successfully remediate legacy
      systems, could have a material adverse impact on the Company's operations.

      The Company is also evaluating and remediating its non-information systems
      for year 2000 compliance. It is seeking to obtain year 2000 compliance
      certification letters from key non-information systems vendors, and has
      conducted successful test simulations of such systems. Although there can
      be no assurance, the Company does not presently anticipate that year 2000
      issues will pose significant operational problems.

      The Company does not presently anticipate that the cost to modify its
      information and non-information technology infrastructure to be Year 2000
      compliant will be material to both its financial condition and its results
      of operations during fiscal 1999. The Company's information technologies
      staff is currently evaluating and remediating the year 2000 issues within
      existing systems. Therefore, the cost to evaluate and remediate such
      systems is principally the related payroll costs for its information
      systems group. The Company does not have a project tracking system that
      tracks the cost and time that its own internal employees spend on year
      2000 projects.

      The Company continues to collect information concerning the year 2000
      compliance status of its suppliers and customers. It is in the process of
      contacting its key customers and suppliers to determine if any such
      supplier or customer has any year 2000 issues which, the Company believes,
      would have a material adverse effect on the Company. There can be no
      assurance, however, that the systems of other companies on which the
      Company relies will be timely converted, or that a failure to successfully
      convert by another company, or a conversion that is incompatible with the
      Company's systems, would not have a material impact on the Company's
      operations.

      The Company is in the process of developing a contingency plan, which it
      presently anticipates will include, among other steps, identifying
      alternative suppliers in the event any of its key suppliers can not offer
      year 2000 compliance assurance in a timely fashion, and securing
      alternative manufacturing sources in the event the Company can not
      remediate any year 2000 issues it discovers in the course of its systems
      assessments which can reasonably be expected to materially impact its
      manufacturing ability. The Company anticipates that its contingency
      planning will be completed by September 30, 1999. The Company's
      contingency plans will evolve, as additional information becomes
      available.

      The Company does not believe that it can identify its most reasonable
      likely worst case year 2000 scenario at this time. However, a reasonable
      worst case scenario would be a failure of a key customer or supplier to
      successfully address its year 2000 issues for a prolonged period. Without
      an effective contingency plan, any failure by the Company to timely
      remediate any year 2000 issues relating to any of its material operating
      or manufacturing systems would likely have a material adverse effect on
      the Company's results of operations, although the extent of such effect
      cannot be reasonably estimated at this time.

      This document contains Year 2000 Readiness Disclosures as defined in Year
      2000 Information and Readiness Disclosure Act, P.L. 105-271 (Oct 19,
      1998). Accordingly, this disclosure, in who or in part, is not, to the
      extent provided in the act, admissible in any state or federal civil
      action to prove the accuracy or truth of any Year 2000 statements
      contained herein.

      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 increased by $4.2 million to $7.4 million
      for the six months ended June 1999, from a use of cash in operations of
      $3.2 million in the six months ended June 1998, principally attributable
      to increases in accounts receivable and decreases in accounts payable and
      accrued expenses, offset by decreases in inventories and prepaid expenses.

      Working capital was $(0.4) million at June 26, 1999 compared to $6.5
      million at December 26, 1998. The change in working capital is primarily
      attributable to an increase of $9.8 million in the revolving line of
      credit to fund operations, payment of term loans and investments in
      capital expenditures.

      The Company continues to manage its cash needs despite restricted credit
      terms from certain of its vendors and suppliers. As reflected in the
      financial statements, the Company has incurred operating losses during the
      first six months of Fiscal 1999. The Company's management believes that it
      will be able to provide through its operations the necessary liquidity for
      the next year. Achieving such liquidity is dependent upon the Company's
      ability to achieve its operating plan. This operating plan anticipates net
      revenue increases and margin improvement. The operating plan also
      anticipates cost savings in certain administrative areas. Additionally,
      the Company is engaged in an equity private placement offering which it
      presently anticipates will be successfully completed by month end October
      1999. The additional equity capital will be used to provide the Company
      with sufficient liquidity to meet its working capital requirements, to
      fund the Company's capital expenditures, to complete the Company's
      management information systems upgrades currently being implemented, and
      to fund the development of the Company's planned e-commerce business,
      consisting of a web site for branding, elements of community building,
      sales of certain of the Company's merchandise, and a secure site for
      various of its wholesale customers. No assurances can be given however,
      regarding the Company's ability to meet its business plan in 1999 and 2000
      and regarding its ability to raise sufficient equity to satisfy the
      aforementioned requirements, or that if such additional equity is raised,
      that the Company's working capital needs or its business or growth
      objectives will be met.

Danskin, Inc. and Subsidiaries

      Strategic Outlook

      The Company's business strategy is to capitalize on and enhance the
      consumer recognition of brand Danskin(R) and products by continuing to
      develop new and innovative activewear, casual wear and legwear products
      that reflect a woman's active lifestyle, and to offer those products to
      the consumer in traditional and non-traditional channels of distribution.

      The Company's strategy is to regain leadership and market share in core
      apparel segments such as dance, and to upgrade its information systems to
      facilitate manufacturing and shipping efficiencies. The Company intends to
      continue to offer new and innovative products that blend technical
      innovation with comfort and style, broadening the position of Brand
      Danskin(R) to the consumer beyond `activewear' to one of `active
      lifestyle.' The Company continues to expand the visibility of Brand
      Danskin(R) beyond its traditional channels of distribution to alternative
      channels such as the Internet (select retailer sites), direct mail
      (through retail partners), and home shopping television channels.

      The Company's Pennaco hosiery division has developed a diversified
      portfolio of products under proprietary licensed and private label brands.
      These products include sheer and supersheer products, value-oriented
      multipacks, plus size offerings, socks, trouser socks and tights. The
      Company's business strategy with respect to the Pennaco division is to
      exploit its significant manufacturing expertise and the diversity of its
      product offerings to achieve strategic alliances with its key retail
      partners with respect to both its branded and private label products to
      enable it to maintain its industry position in a contracting sheer hosiery
      market.

      The Company is also in the process of exploring its alternatives for the
      marketing and distribution of its activewear and legwear products over the
      Internet. The Company believes that the Internet will provide it with an
      alternative and expanded channel of distribution that would allow it to
      offer the full complement of its product lines to a significantly broader
      audience than is presently available to it in any existing channel of
      distribution.

      In addition to the foregoing, the Company is seeking to increase its
      presence at retail by exploring various licensing opportunities of Brand
      Danskin(R) as well as seeking to increase its presence in various
      international markets.

      There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to implement these
      strategies, or that if implemented, that such strategies will be
      successful. In addition, there can be no assurance that the Company would
      not be adversely affected by adverse changes in general economic
      conditions, the financial condition of the apparel industry or retail
      industry, or adverse changes in retailer or consumer acceptance of the
      Company's products as a result of fashion trends or otherwise. Moreover,
      the retail environment remains intensely competitive and highly
      promotional and there can be no assurance that the Company would not be
      adversely affected by pricing changes of the Company's competitors.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

      The Company does not trade in derivative financial instruments. The
      Company's revolving line of credit bears interest at a variable rate
      (prime plus 1/2%) and, therefore, the Company is subject to market-risk in
      the form of interest rate fluctuations.
