Results of Operations
- ---------------------
Sales for the nine months ended September 30, 1996 were $155.2 million and
earnings were $8.4 million compared with sales of $142.8 million and earnings of
$4.9 million for the comparable period in 1995. Earnings per share were $.58 for
the 1996 nine month period compared with $.34 in 1995. Sales for the quarter
ended September 30, 1996 were $50.2 million and net income was $2.5 million
compared to sales of $47.3 million and net income of $.4 million for the
comparable 1995 period. Earnings per share were $.17 for the third quarter of
1996, compared to $.03 in the 1995 period.
The following table sets forth the percentages which certain income and expense
items bear to net sales:

For the nine months ended September 30, 1996, sales increased by $12.4 million
or 8.7% compared to the nine months ended September 30, 1995. For the quarter
ended September 30, 1996, sales increased by $2.8 million or 6% compared to the
1995 quarter.
Sales from North American operations decreased 2.3% and increased 7% for the
nine months and the three months ended September 30, 1996 from the corresponding
periods in 1995. Sales from French operations increased 10.2% and 5.6% for the
nine months and three months ended September 30, 1996 from the corresponding
periods in 1995. Sales from South American operations, acquired by the Company
in April 1995, were 6.7% and 7.2% of consolidated sales for the nine months and
the three months ended September 30, 1996.
The volume decreases for the nine months of 1996 in North America resulted
primarily because of slower retail sales for pantyhose that contain covered yarn
and continued competitive pressures caused by excess capacity. The volume
improvement in North American sales for the three months ended September 30,
1996 over the prior year third quarter resulted primarily from the expansion
into non-panty hose end-uses. Sales from the French operations increased over
the prior year same period due primarily to increased demand at the retail level
for woven fabrics containing covered yarn. The continued expansion in end-use
applications has enabled the Company to increase sales in the European markets.
<PAGE>
WORLDTEX, INC.
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Gross profit margins increased primarily because the Company's fixed expenses
were spread over higher sales. The increase was also attributable to the margin
contributed by the Colombian operation which was acquired in April, 1995.
Selling and administrative expenses decreased as a percentage of net sales
because the fixed component of these expenses were spread over a higher sales
base.
Interest expense for the nine months ended September 30, 1996, increased due to
increased borrowings of revolving credit for capital requirements within the
U.S. operations and increased borrowings resulting from the acquisition of
Fibrexa. Interest expense for the three months ended September 30, 1996,
decreased due to lower interest rates resulting primarily from decreases in the
prime rate.
The Company had an effective income tax rate of 37.8% and 38.2% for the nine
months and the three months ended September 30, 1996 compared to 47.8% and 84.6%
for the same periods in 1995. In July 1995, the French parliament enacted a
provision increasing the tax rate from 33.33% to 36.67%. The 1995 quarter
included an increase to the beginning of the year deferred tax liability of $ .9
million and an increase to reflect the increase in taxes on current year income
of $ .4 million. These adjustments increased the 1995 effective tax rate by
approximately 13.6% for the nine months and 49.7% for the three months ended
September 30, 1995.
Liquidity; Capital Resources
- -----------------------------
The Company meets both its long-term and short-term liquidity needs through
internally generated funds and outside borrowings.
At September 30, 1996, $17.1 million was outstanding under the Company's
Revolving Credit Agreement and approximately $17.9 million was available for
future borrowings. In addition, Filix Lastex, S.A., Rubyco (1987), Inc., and
Fibrexa Ltda., had available approximately $17.5 million, $.5 million, and $1.7
million, respectively, under various bank lines of credit and overdraft
facilities. The most restrictive covenant of the Company's Credit Agreement and
Note Agreement limit short-term borrowings by the Company's subsidiaries to a
total of approximately $15.4 million at September 30, 1996. Worldtex believes
that these lines of credit, together with internally generated funds and access
to other financing sources, will provide sufficient liquidity for the Company's
expected short-term and long-term cash requirements.
Cash totaled $5.3 million at September 30, 1996, representing a net increase of
$3.4 million for the nine months then ended. Cash flows from operating
activities and from financing activities are the principal indicators of the
Company's liquidity. During the first nine months of 1996, $11.4 million was
generated from operating activities as a result of net income, adjusted for the
effects of depreciation and amortization and changes in the balances of
receivables, payables, inventories and other assets and liabilities. During the
first nine months of 1996, financing activities contributed $5.1 million,
reflecting routine borrowings and repayments under the Company's lines of credit
and revolving credit facility. During the first nine months of 1996, $13 million
was applied toward the purchase of additional equipment and other investing
activities, including the upgrading of certain equipment. The Company
anticipates that its capital expenditures during 1996 will aggregate
approximately $15.1 million, primarily for the purchase of equipment.
Working capital was $49.1 million at September 30, 1996, and $45.1 million at
December 31, 1995, reflecting an increase of $4 million and current ratios of
2.5 at September 30, 1996 and December 31, 1995.
A large customer of the Company's Regal subsidiary, Ithaca Industries, Inc.,
filed a prepackaged plan of reorganization under the Federal Bankruptcy Code on
October 8, 1996 in Wilmington, Delaware. Regal is owed $2.1 million from Ithaca
Industries, Inc. as of October 8, 1996. Under the terms of the plan, trade

AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
creditors will be unimpaired and will be paid in full. Accordingly, the Company
contemplates that Regal will be paid in full, although the Company cannot
predict the course of such bankruptcy proceeding.
Worldtex is authorized to repurchase up to one million shares of common stock.
The Company purchased 3,500 shares during the three months ended September 30,
1996. A total of 191,300 shares have been purchased and are carried at cost as
Treasury Stock.
