NOTE 1 -                  The accompanying financial statements have been
                  prepared without audit pursuant to the rules and regulations
                  of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information
                  and footnote disclosures normally included in financial
                  statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted
                  accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant
                  to such rules and regulations. These statements include all
                  adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring accruals,
                  considered necessary for a fair presentation of financial
                  position and results of operations. The financial statements
                  included herein should be read in conjunction with the
                  financial statements and notes thereto included in the latest
                  annual report on Form 10-K.


NOTE 2 -                  The results of operations for the nine month and three
                  month periods ended November 30, 1995 and 1994 are not
                  necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the
                  full year.


NOTE 3 -                  The Company utilized the last-in, first-out "Lifo"
                  method for inventories as of November 30, 1995 and February
                  28, 1995 and for the nine and three month periods ended
                  November 30, 1995 and 1994. The "Lifo" inventory for the nine
                  and three month periods ended November 30, 1995 and 1994 are
                  based upon end of year estimates. Inventories at November 30,
                  1995 and February 28, 1995 consist primarily of finished
                  goods.

                  1995 are long-term investments of $5,000,000. The investments
                  are carried at cost which approximates market value at
                  November 30, 1995.

                     MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
                  FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

                                NOVEMBER 30, 1995
                                   (Unaudited)

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


For the Nine Months Ended November 30, 1995:

         Consolidated net sales increased 19.5% to $232.8 million in the nine
months ended November 30, 1995 as compared to $194.8 million in the comparable
prior year period. This increase is due primarily to increased sales of Nautica
products through its wholesale and retail operations. Nautica's wholesale sales
increased primarily due to the expansion of Nautica's shop-within-a-store
program, sales to new retail customers and to additional retail locations of
existing customers, and the continued growth of the basic stock replenishment
program for the Anchor group of Nautica products. The increase in Nautica's
wholesale sales is primarily due to increased unit volume rather than price
increases. The increase in retail sales is attributable to the opening of new
stores and to an increase in comparable store sales.

         Consolidated gross profit increased in the nine months ended November
30, 1995 to 44.4% of net sales, as compared to 43.2% in the comparable prior
year period. The net increase resulted primarily from a shift in sales mix to
higher margin products and to an increase in retail operations.

         Designing, selling, shipping and general and administrative expenses as
a percentage of net sales decreased to 28.9% in the nine months ended November
30, 1995 as compared to 29.4% in the comparable prior year period. The net
decrease, as a percentage of sales, resulted from economies of scale achieved
with sales growth.

         Net royalty income increased $843,000 in the nine months ended November
30, 1995 as compared to the comparable prior year period. The increase is a
result of increased royalty revenue from new and existing licensees.

         Interest income increased approximately $504,000 in the nine months
ended November 30, 1995 as compared to the comparable prior year period due to
higher average cash balances during the period and to an increase in the rate of
return on investments. In the prior year period other expense of $736,000
represents a write-off of costs associated with the Company's evaluation of its
warehouse and distribution facilities location.

         The provision for income taxes increased to 40.0% of earnings before
income taxes for the nine month period ended November 30, 1995 as compared to
37.5% in the comparable prior year period. The prior year's rate was unusually
low due to tax relief provided by the State of Maine which reduced the corporate
tax rate and to the inclusion of a one time refund of taxes previously paid.

         Net earnings increased approximately 34% to $23.6 million in the nine
months ended November 30, 1995 from $17.6 million in the comparable prior year
period as a result of the factors discussed above.

For the Three Months Ended November 30, 1995:

         Consolidated net sales increased 4.4% to $90.8 million in the three
months ended November 30, 1995 as compared to $87.0 million in the comparable
prior year period. This increase is due primarily to increased sales of Nautica
products through its wholesale and retail operations. Nautica's wholesale sales
increased primarily due to the expansion of Nautica's shop-within-a-store
program, sales to new retail customers and to additional retail locations of
existing customers, and the continued growth of the basic stock replenishment
program for the Anchor group of Nautica products. These increases were offset by
the discontinued lower margin Christian Dior business which experienced 70% of
it's sales volume in the third quarter of the prior year. The increase in
Nautica's wholesale sales is primarily due to increased unit volume rather than
price increases. The increase in retail sales is attributable to the opening of
new stores and to an increase in comparable store sales.

         Consolidated gross profit increased in the three months ended November
30, 1995 to 45.4% of net sales, as compared to 43.0% in the comparable prior
year period. The net increase resulted primarily from a shift in sales mix to
higher margin products and to an increase in retail operations.

         Designing, selling, shipping and general and administrative expenses,
as a percentage of net sales decreased to 24.9% in the three months ended
November 30, 1995 as compared to 25.4% in the comparable prior year period. The
net decrease resulted primarily from economies of scale achieved with sales
growth.

         Net royalty income increased $441,000 in the three months ended
November 30, 1995 as compared to the comparable prior year period. The increase
is a result of increased royalty revenue from new and existing licensees.
Interest income remained relatively constant during the period.

         The provision for income taxes decreased to 40.0% of earnings before
income taxes for the three month period ended November 30, 1995 as compared to
40.7% in the comparable prior year period. The decrease is primarily due to a
lower estimated effective state tax rate in the current year.

         Net earnings increased approximately 25% to $11.9 million in the three
months ended November 30, 1995 from $9.5 million in the comparable prior year
period as a result of the factors discussed above.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

         During the nine months ended November 30, 1995 the Company generated
cash from operating activities of $18.1 million principally from net earnings.
Increases in inventories of $3.7 million and accounts receivable of $15.0
million, resulting from increased sales levels, were financed by cash generated
from net earnings and from increases primarily in accrued expenses. During the
nine months ended November 30, 1994 the Company generated cash from its
operating activities of $4.0 million principally from net earnings. Increases in
inventories of 8.8 million and accounts receivable of $19.3 million, resulting
from increased sales levels, were financed by cash generated from net earnings
and increases primarily in accounts payable and accrued expenses.

         During the nine months ended November 30, 1995 the Company's principal
investing activities related to the expansion of the Company's warehouse and
distribution facilities and the continued expansion of retail shops. The
expected cost of the expansion is approximately $14.0 million. The Company will
utilize its existing cash and lines of credit during construction and will
consider financing alternatives for the project following its completion. At
November 30, 1995 there were no other material commitments for capital
expenditures.

         The Company has $80.0 million in lines of credit with two commercial
banks available for short-term borrowings and letters of credit. These lines are
collateralized by wholesale inventory and accounts receivable. At November 30,
1995 letters of credit outstanding under the lines were $26.5 million and there
were no short-term borrowings outstanding.

INFLATION AND CURRENCY FLUCTUATIONS

         The Company believes that inflation and the effect of fluctuations of
the Dollar against foreign currencies has not had a material effect on the cost
of imports or the Company's results of operations.
