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

Sales for the six months  ended June 30,  1996 were $105  million and net income
was $5.9  million,  compared  with sales of $95.5 million and net income of $4.5
million for the comparable period in 1995.  Earnings per share were $.41 for the
1996 six month period  compared  with $.31 in 1995.  Sales for the quarter ended
June 30, 1996 were $53.1  million and net income was $3.2  million,  compared to
sales of $49.1  million and net income of $2.4 million for the  comparable  1995
period. Earnings per share were $.22 for the second quarter of 1996, compared to
$.16 per share in the 1995 period.

For the six months ended June 30, 1996,  sales  increased by $9.5 million or 10%
compared to the six months ended June 30, 1995.  For the quarter  ended June 30,
1996, sales increased by $4 million or 8% compared to the 1995 quarter.

Sales  from  North  American  operations  decreased  11.3% and 14.9% for the six
months and the three months ended June 30, 1996 from the  corresponding  periods
in 1995.  Sales from  French  operations  increased  12.2% and 10.6% for the six
months and three  months ended June 30, 1996 from the  corresponding  periods in
1995.  Sales from South American  operations,  acquired by the Company in April,
1995,  were 7.7% and 8.7% of the  consolidated  sales for the six months and the
three months ended June 30, 1996.

The  volume  decreases  for the six and three  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.
Sales from the French operations  increased over the prior year same periods due
primarily to increased  demand at the retail level for woven fabrics  containing
covered yarn.

           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.  Selling and  administrative  expenses
decreased  as a  percentage  of net sales  because the fixed  component of these
expenses was spread over a higher sales base.

Interest  expense for the six months and the three months  ending June 30, 1996,
increased  due  to  increased   borrowings  of  revolving   credit  for  capital
requirements within the U.S. operations and the increased  borrowings  resulting
from the acquisition of Fibrexa.

The  Company  had an  effective  income  tax rate of 37.6% and 37.0% for the six
months and the three months ended June 30, 1996  compared to 33.9% and 34.9% for
the same periods in 1995. This increase results  primarily from an increased tax
rate in France from 33.33% to 36.67% enacted in July 1995.


Liquidity; Capital Resources
- ----------------------------

The Company  meets both its  long-term and  short-term  liquidity  needs through
internally generated funds and outside borrowings.

At June 30, 1996,  $17.8 million was outstanding  under the Company's  Revolving
Credit  Agreement  and  approximately  $17.2  million was  available  for future
borrowings.  In addition,  Filix Lastex,  S.A., Rubyco (1987), Inc., and Fibrexa
Ltda.,  had  available  approximately  $17.9  million,  $1.1  million,  and $1.6
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  $15.1 million at June 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 $2.8  million at June 30, 1996,  representing  a net increase of $1
million for the six months then ended. Cash flows from operating  activities and
from  financing  activities  are  the  principal  indicators  of  the  Company's
liquidity.  During the first six months of 1996, $5.5 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 six
months  of 1996,  financing  activities  contributed  $4.6  million,  reflecting
routine  borrowings  and  repayments  under the  Company's  lines of credit  and
revolving credit facility. During the first six months of 1996, $9.2 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 $11.5 million, primarily for the purchase of equipment.

Working  capital was $50 million at June 30, 1996, and $45.1 million at December
31, 1995,  reflecting  an increase of $4.9 million and current  ratios of 2.5 at
June 30, 1996 and December 31, 1995.
