                         JD AMERICAN WORKWEAR, INC.
                        Notes to Financial Statements

Note 1 - The Company
- - --------------------

      The Company was incorporated in Rhode Island in 1991 under the name 
Jaque Dubois, Inc. and  was re-incorporated in Delaware in 1994.  In July 
1995, the Company's name was changed to JD American Workwear, Inc.  The 
Company is primarily engaged in the business of designing, manufacturing, 
marketing and selling commercial and industrial workwear products

      Substantial losses have been incurred since inception and additional 
future losses are anticipated as the Company continues to expand operations 
and establish itself in the market.  Management believes that additional 
capital may be required to sustain operations through February 28, 1999.  
The Company anticipates meeting its future cash requirements through the 
sale of products and obtaining additional financing.  There can be no 
assurance that sufficient cash can be generated from operations or financing 
activities or that the Company will be able to operate profitably in the 
future.


Note 2 - Basis of Presentation
- - ------------------------------

      The interim financial statements are prepared pursuant to the 
requirements for reporting on 10-QSB.  The interim financial information 
included herein is unaudited; however, such information reflects all 
adjustments (consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments) that are, in 
the opinion of management, necessary to a fair presentation of the Company's 
financial position, results of operations, and cash flows for the interim 
periods.

      The accompanying financial statements do not contain all of the 
disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles and should 
be read in conjunction with the financial statements and related notes 
included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the fiscal year 
ended February 28, 1998.  The results of operations for the interim periods 
shown in this report are not necessarily indicative of results to be 
expected for the fiscal year ending February 28, 1999.


                       PART I.  FINANCIAL INFORMATION

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

Results of Operations

      Three Months Ended November 30, 1998 Compared to Three Months Ended 
November 30, 1997.  Net sales for the three month period ended November 30, 
1998 increased approximately 118.3% to $358,238 from $164,093 for the three 
month period ended November 30, 1997.  The increase is directly attributable 
to an increase in unit volume, notably to JC Penney for distribution on its 
www.jcpenney.com online catalog website, to other retail stores and to the 
rental service market.  Cost of goods sold for the three months ended 
November 30, 1998 was $263,278 compared to $99,796 for the three months 
ended November 30, 1997.  Gross margin for the three month period ended 
November 30, 1998 decreased to 26.5% from 39.2% for the three months ended 
November 30, 1997, primarily due to lower margins associated with sales to 
the rental service market.  The company is in the process of exploring 
product design modifications, lower raw material costs and packaging and 
shipping efficiencies with the goal of decreasing unit costs and increasing 
gross margin in future quarters.

      Operating expenses increased $36.3% to $394,900 for the three months 
ended November 30, 1998 from $289,755 for the three months ended November 
30, 1997.  A significant portion of the increase was due to additional 
payroll incurred in connection with the expansion of the Company's inside 
sales force and additional professional fees, as well as charges for options 
and warrants issued to consultants for services.  The Company earned $9,185 
of interest income in excess of interest expense for the three months ended 
November 30, 1998 versus net interest expense of  $37,551 for the three 
months ended November 30, 1997.  This is a direct result of short-term 
investments of cash and the reduction of long-term debt through repayments 
and conversions of debt to common stock.

      As a result of the increase in operating expenses not offset by the 
increase in gross profits, the net loss for the three months ended November 
30, 1998 was $290,755 ($.14 per share) compared to a net loss of $263,009 
($.13 per share) for the three months ended November 30, 1997. 

      Nine months Ended November 30, 1998 Compared to Nine months Ended 
November 30, 1997.  Net sales for the nine month period ended November 30, 
1998 increased approximately 60.5% to $764,511 from $476,253 for the nine 
month period ended November 30, 1997.  The increase is directly attributable 
to an increase in unit volume, notably to JC Penney for distribution on its 
www.jcpenney.com online catalog website, to other retail stores and to the 
rental service market.  Cost of goods sold for the nine months ended 
November 30, 1998 was $523,963 compared to $277,091 for the nine months 
ended November 30, 1997.  Gross margin for the nine month period ended 
November 30, 1998 was 31.5% compared to 41.8% for the nine months ended 
November 30, 1997, primarily due to lower margins associated with sales to 
the rental service market.  The company is in the process of exploring 
product design modifications, lower raw material costs and packaging and 
shipping efficiencies with the goal of decreasing unit costs and increasing 
gross margin.  

      Operating expenses increased to $1,163,092 for the nine months ended 
November 30, 1998 from $757,355 for the nine months ended November 30, 1997.  
A significant portion of the increase was due to additional payroll incurred 
in connection with the expansion of the Company's inside sales force, 
additional professional fees, as well as charges for options and warrants 
issued to consultants for services.  Net interest expense decreased to 
$11,993 from $115,577 due to increases in short-term borrowings.

      As a result of the increase in operating expenses not offset by the 
increase in gross profits, the net loss for the nine months ended November 
30, 1998 was $934,537 ($.42 per share) compared to a net loss of $673,759 
($.34 per share) for the nine months ended November 30, 1997. 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

      Net cash used in operating activities was $1,573,418 for the nine 
months ended November 30, 1998 compared to $120,507 for the nine months 
ended November 30, 1997.  The Company used resources to continue to build 
finished goods inventory of traditional and new product lines in 
anticipation of its prime selling season.  Cash flows used to produce 
inventory was offset partially by increases in accounts payable.  Accounts 
receivable increased approximately 288.1% to $586,914 from February 28, 1998 
to November 30, 1998 corresponding to the increase in net sales.   Inventory 
increased 43.2% to $1,514,700 during the first nine months of fiscal 1999, 
which the Company will use to satisfy anticipated sales demands in the 
quarters ended February 28, 1999 and May 31, 1999.

      Capital expenditures for the nine months ended November 30, 1998 were 
$78,016 compared to $7,289 for the nine months ended November 30, 1997, 
primarily due to the purchase of three trucks, additional sewing equipment 
and warehouse fixtures.

      As previously announced, on April 9, 1998, the Company entered into a 
Securities Purchase Agreement (the "Purchase Agreement") with The Union 
Labor Life Insurance Company, a Maryland corporation ("ULLICO").  Pursuant 
to the terms of the Purchase Agreement, the Company issued 2,500 shares of 
Series B 12% Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock, $.001 par value (the 
"Series B Preferred Stock") as well as a detached ten-year stock purchase 
warrant to purchase 799,000 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of 
$.01 per share (the "Investor Warrant").  The aggregate purchase price for 
the Series B Preferred Stock and the Investor Warrant was $2,500,000.

      The Company has and will continue to use the net proceeds to 
facilitate and expand a program of union labor manufacturing of its 
products, to repay certain notes payable and long-term debt, and for sales 
and administrative salaries, product development, sales and marketing 
expense, and other general corporate purposes.

      The Company has reduced its long-term debt by negotiating with debt 
holders to convert its outstanding convertible debt into Common Stock of the 
Company.  During the nine months ended November 30, 1998, approximately 
$365,000 of outstanding indebtedness plus accrued interest, evidenced by the 
Company's 11% Convertible Subordinated Notes (the "11% Notes") had been 
converted into approximately 101,000 shares of the Company's Common Stock, 
and approximately $131,000 of said notes, plus accrued interest, was repaid 
Common Stock before November 30, 1998.  The Company has not heard whether 
the holders of the remaining 11% Notes outstanding, representing an 
aggregate balance of approximately $75,000 plus accrued interest, will 
convert their notes into Common Stock or demand repayment.

      In addition, the Company repaid $70,000 plus accrued interest during 
the nine months ended  November 30, 1998 pursuant to the Company's 10% 
Convertible Secured Notes (the "10% Notes").  Management anticipates that 
the balance of the 10% Notes, representing an aggregate $130,000 of 
indebtedness plus accrued interest, will be converted into Common Stock by 
February 28, 1999.  

      Management believes cash flow from operations and the investment by 
ULLICO will provide for working capital needs and principal payments on 
long-term debt through fiscal 1999.  However, the Company will be required 
to seek additional financing to meet its business strategy of achieving 
significant market penetration of its JD workwear products.  Also, 
additional capital may be required if adequate levels of revenue are not 
realized, if higher than anticipated costs are incurred in the expansion of 
the Company's manufacturing and marketing activities, or if product demand 
exceeds expected levels.  There can be no assurance that any additional 
financing thereby necessitated will be available on acceptable terms to the 
Company, if at all.
