3.       LONG-TERM DEBT

         Long-term debt consists principally of a credit facility with a bank.
At September 30, 2000 the credit facility, as amended, (i) provides for maximum
borrowings of $17.0 million (subject to certain collateral restrictions based on
eligible receivables, inventories and fixed assets), (ii) expires on April 30,
2002 and (iii) bears interest at the prime rate plus .25% or LIBOR plus 2.25%
(subject to repricing annually). The facility is secured by substantially all
the Company's assets. As of September 30, 2000, the Company had borrowings
totaling $11.7 million outstanding under the credit facility and availability to
borrow $5.0 million.

4.       FACILITY CLOSURE

         During the second quarter of 2000, the Company closed its sewing
facility located in Ball Ground, Georgia. Closure costs included in operating
expenses in the accompanying statement of operations consist of $29,000 of paid
severance costs for 39 employees, impairment charges of $101,160 to record
equipment at its net realizable value and other costs of $22,480. As a result,
the Company had accrued $20,000 for unpaid closure costs as of June 30, 2000.
The Company made payments totaling $6,000 during third quarter 2000, resulting
in a remaining liability of $14,000 as of September 30, 2000. The equipment is
held for sale at September 30, 2000 and its adjusted basis of $36,039 is
included in the other current assets in the accompanying balance sheet.

5.       LITIGATION

         The Company is a party to various lawsuits in the ordinary course of
doing business. The Company intends to defend these matters vigorously.
Management is currently in the process of attempting to settle one of these
lawsuits, however, no settlement has been reached to date. The outcome of these
matters cannot presently be determined. Accordingly, no provision for any loss
that may result for the resolution of these matters has been made in the
accompanying financial statement.

Third Quarter of 2000 Compared to Third Quarter of 1999

         The Company's net sales decreased $896,000, or 3.4%, to $25.1 million
in the third quarter of 2000 (the "2000 Quarter") from $26.0 million in the
third quarter of 1999 (the "1999 Quarter"). The decrease in net sales was
primarily due to the inability to replace sales of discontinued products and
lower selling prices of certain styles.

         The Company's gross profit remained constant at $4.0 million for the
third quarters of 2000 and 1999. The gross profit margin increased to 16% for
the 2000 Quarter compared to 15.5% in the 1999 Quarter. The increase in gross
profit margin is the result of increased sales of higher margin manufactured
products combined with lower costs of goods sold due to improved purchasing
procedures on distribution products.

         Operating expenses remained constant at $3.2 million for the third
quarters of 2000 and 1999. As a percentage of net sales, operating expenses
increased to 12.6% in the 2000 Quarter from 12.1% in the 1999 Quarter.

         As a result of the above factors, operating income decreased $10,000,
or 1.1%, to $860,000 in the 2000 Quarter from $870,000 in the 1999 Quarter. As a
percentage of net sales, operating income remained constant at 3.4%.

         Other expenses, which consist principally of interest expense,
increased $66,000, or 26.7%, to $313,000 in the 2000 Quarter from $247,000 in
the 1999 Quarter. The increase was primarily due to higher interest rates
attributable to increases in the borrowing rate. Other expenses, as a percentage
of net sales, increased to 1.3% in the 2000 Quarter from 1.0% in the 1999
Quarter.

         As a result of the above factors, income before income taxes decreased
$76,000, or 12.2%, to $547,000 in the 2000 Quarter from $623,000 in the 1999
Quarter. Income before income taxes as a percentage of net sales decreased to
2.1% in 2000 Quarter from 2.4% in the 1999 Quarter.

         The Company recorded an income tax provision of $207,000 in the 2000
Quarter compared to $161,000 in the 1999 Quarter. The provision for both
quarters approximates the statutory federal and state income tax rates.


                                       7
<PAGE>   8

         As a result of the above factors, net income decreased $122,000, or
26.4%, to $340,000 ($.08 per diluted share) in the 2000 Quarter from $462,000
($.11 per diluted share) in the 1999 Quarter. As a percentage of net sales, net
income decreased to 1.3% in the 2000 Quarter from 1.8% in the 1999 Quarter.

First Nine Months of 2000 Compared to First Nine Months of 1999

         The Company's net sales decreased $123,000, or 0.2%, to $73.6 million
in the first nine months of 2000 ( the "2000 Period") from $73.7 million in the
first nine months of 1999 (the "1999 Period). The decrease in net sales was
primarily due to the inability to replace sales of discontinued products and
lower selling prices of certain styles.

         The Company's gross profit increased $707,000, or 5.9%, to $12.7
million for the 2000 Period from $12.0 million in the 1999 Period. Gross profit
margin increased to 17.3% in the 2000 Period from 16.3% in the 1999 Period. The
increase in gross profit and gross profit margin is attributable to increased
sales of higher margin manufactured product and lower costs of goods sold due to
improved purchasing procedures on distribution products.

         Operating expenses increased $466,000, or 4.9%, to $10.0 million in the
2000 Period from $9.6 million in the 1999 Period. The increase in operating
expenses is due primarily to increased selling costs associated with the
national sales program and the Ball Ground facility closure. As a percentage of
net sales, operating expenses increased to 13.6% in the 2000 Period from 13.0%
in the 1999 Period.

         As a result of the above factors, operating income increased $241,000,
or 9.9%, to $2.7 million in the 2000 Period from $2.4 million in the 1999
Period. As a percentage of net sales, operating income increased to 3.7% in the
2000 Period from 3.3% in the 1999 Period.

         Other expenses, which consist principally of interest expense,
increased $218,000, or 29.9%, to $948,000 in the 2000 Period from $730,000 in
the 1999 Period. The increase was primarily due to higher interest rates
attributable to increases in the borrowing rate, and due to increased borrowings
under the Company's line of credit during the 2000 Period compared to the 1999
Period, which resulted from financing increased inventory balances during the
2000 Period compared to the 1999 Period. Other expense as a percentage of net
sales increased to 1.3% in the 2000 Period from 1.0% in the 1999 Period.

         Income before income taxes remained constant at $1.7 million for the
first nine months of both 2000 and 1999. Income before income taxes as a
percentage of net sales increased to 2.4% in the 2000 Period from 2.3% in the
1999 Period.

         The Company recorded an income tax provision of $687,000 in the 2000
Period compared to $602,000 in the 1999 Period. The provision for both periods
approximates the statutory federal and state income tax rates.

         As a result of the above factors, net income decreased $62,000, or
5.6%, to $1.0 million ($.24 per diluted share) in the 2000 Period from $1.1
million ($.26 per diluted share) in the 1999 Period. As a percentage of net
sales, net income remained constant at 1.5%.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

         Net cash provided by operations was $3.4 million for the 2000 Period
compared to net cash used in operations of ($4.1) million in the 1999 Period.
The net cash generated in operations in the 2000 Period was primarily due to the
Company's net income combined with increases in accounts payable and accrued
expenses offset by an increase in accounts receivable. The net cash used in
operations in the 1999 Period was primarily used to support increased accounts
receivable levels offset by decreased inventory levels.

         The Company maintains a credit facility with a bank. At September 30,
2000 the credit facility, as amended, (i) provides for maximum borrowings of
$17.0 million (subject to certain collateral restrictions based on eligible
receivables, inventories and fixed assets), (ii) expires on April 30, 2002 and
(iii) bears interest at the prime rate plus .25% or LIBOR plus 2.25% (subject to
repricing annually). The facility is secured by substantially all the Company's
assets. As of October 23, 2000, the Company had borrowings totaling $10.2
million outstanding under the credit facility and availability to borrow $6.4
million.

         Over the next twelve months the Company plans to spend approximately
$930,000 for capital expenditures, including the purchase of a warehouse locator
system for each of the six distribution sites, warehouse racking for some of the
locations, a new telephone system, and to fund the redesign and construction of
the showrooms.

         The Company's ability to fund its working capital and capital
expenditure requirements, make interest payments and meet its other cash
requirements depends, among other things, on internally generated funds and the
continued availability of and compliance with the terms of its credit facility.
Management further believes that internally generated funds and funds available
from the Company's line of credit will be sufficient to meet the Company's
capital requirements and operating needs for the next twelve months. However, if
there is a significant reduction of internally generated funds or the Company is
unable to meet the operating projections used in amending the credit facility,
as amended, the Company may require additional funds from outside financing
sources. In such event, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able
to obtain such funding as and when required or on acceptable terms.

         The Company is a party to various lawsuits in the ordinary course of
doing business. The Company intends to vigorously defend these matters, although
there can be no assurance as to the ultimate outcome. Management is currently in
settlement negotiations with respect to one lawsuit. There can be no assurance
that a favorable settlement can be reached, nor can there be any assurance that
a settlement or ultimate judgment, as the case may be, will not have a material
adverse effect on the Company's results of operations.
