                                 August 31, 2000

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  marketing  industrial  workwear
        products, providing machining and fabrication of parts used in industry,
        parts sales and service for heavy construction equipment, and paving and
        concrete installation.

NOTE 2: GOING CONCERN

        The Company has incurred  substantial  operating losses since inception.
        During the year ended  February  29,  2000,  the Company  experienced  a
        significant  loss of sales  and  major  customers,  in part,  due to its
        failure to meet  obligations  related to the  marketing of its products.
        Additionally,  the Company has been  unable to meet  obligations  to its
        creditors as they have become due. These  conditions  raise  substantial
        doubt about the Company's  ability to continue as a going  concern.  The
        ability of the Company to continue as a going  concern is  dependent  on
        its  ability to reverse  negative  operating  trends,  raise  additional
        capital and obtain debt financing.

        Management  has revised its approach to marketing its patented  workwear
        products  to  include  an  emphasis  on sales  using the  Internet,  the
        liquidation  of  overstocked  inventory  and  future  sales  of  product
        licenses.  Management  believes  that its new approach will reduce costs
        and improve  profitability  in its workwear sales.  The Company has also
        expanded  into other  lines of  business  through  acquisitions  of, and
        contracts  with,  other  companies in exchange for the Company's  stock.
        Management  believes that these acquisitions and agreements will provide
        an increase in revenues that will attract  additional  equity investment
        and assets that will serve as collateral  for debt  financing.  However,
        there  can be no  assurance  that  the  Company  will be  able to  raise
        capital, obtain debt financing or improve operating results sufficiently
        to continue as a going concern.

        The accompanying  financial  statements have been prepared assuming that
        the Company will continue as a going concern. These financial statements
        do not  include  any  adjustments  relating  to the  recoverability  and
        classification  of recorded assets or the amounts and  classification of
        liabilities that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue
        as a going concern.

NOTE 3: BASIS OF PRESENTATION

        The interim  financial  statements are prepared in pursuant to the rules
        and regulations of the Securities and Exchange  Commission.  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 29, 2000.  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, 2001.

NOTE 4: ACQUISITIONS

        its subsidiary,  International Machine and Welding, by acquiring all the
        outstanding capital stock of Patina Corp. for approximately  $4,500,000.
        The  acquisition  was funded by 9,800 shares of Series C 6%  Convertible
        Preferred Stock.

        In June 2000, the Company also acquired Rhode Island Truck and Equipment
        Corp. for 200,000 shares of the Company's common stock, in a transaction
        valued at approximately $200,000.

        The foregoing  acquisitions have been recorded under the purchase method
        of accounting and,  accordingly,  the results of the acquired businesses
        are included in the consolidated  financial statements since the date of
        acquisition.  The  allocations  of the  purchase  prices are  subject to
        adjustment when the final valuation information is determined.

        The  following  unaudited pro forma  summary  presents the  consolidated
        results of operation  as if the  acquisition  of Patina Corp.  and Rhode
        Island  Truck and  Equipment  Corp.  had occurred on March 1, 1999 after
        giving  effect  to  certain   adjustments.   The  pro  forma   financial
        information  does  not  purport  to be  indicative  of  the  results  of
        operations that would have occurred had the  transaction  taken place at
        the  beginning  of  the  periods  presented  or  of  future  results  of
        operations.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S  DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
        OF OPERATIONS

FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS

        This report contains  forward-looking  statements  within the meaning of
section 27A of the  Securities  Act of 1933 and  Section  21E of the  Securities
Exchange  Act of  1934.  Actual  results  could  differ  materially  from  those
projected in the forward-looking  statements as a result of the risk factors set
forth in this  report,  the  Company's  Annual  Report on Form  10-KSB and other
reports and documents  that the Company files with the  Securities  and Exchange
Commission.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

        Since its  inception,  the Company  has been  involved in the design and
development  of its products,  the  development  of its  relationships  with its
suppliers  and  manufacturing  contractors  and the  marketing  of its  products
through various distribution  channels.  First commercial shipments of JD Safety
Work Jeans were made in September 1992. First  commercial  shipments of an early
version  of JD  Safety  Uniform  Pants  were made  during  1994.  Following  the
Company's  initial public  offering in January 1995,  the Company  significantly
increased its  expenditures for inventory,  salaries,  advertising and marketing
expenditures and other costs to increase its level of production. In March 1995,
relatively  small  quantities of a later version of JD Safety Uniform Pants were
sold,  and this version  became the working  prototype for the JD Safety Uniform
Pants currently distributed by the Company.

        The acquisition of Patina Corp. and its subsidiary International Machine
and  Welding,  Inc.  provides  a full  service  welding  and  machine  shop with
expertise in metal fabrication,  various types of welding,  machining and boring
operations.  The subsidiary is particularly  strong in the  re-manufacturing  of
large, complex shaped heavy components, pumps, valves, bearings, shafts etc. The
company's  boring  mill is one of the  largest  in the  Southeast  allowing  the
company to machine items up to 20 feet in diameter and 55 feet in length.

        Other operations housed at International  Machine and Welding include an
independent  full  service  repair  facility  capable  of  repairing  most heavy
construction  equipment,  including  rebuilding engines,  transmissions,  torque
converters,  undercarriage  and tracks for crawler  tractors.  The Company has a
fleet of field  service  trucks  capable  of doing  most  repairs  in the field.
Coupled with these  operations is a direct to the consumer parts sales operation
for heavy construction equipment.

        Rhode  Island  Truck  and  Equipment  Corp.  has  historically  provided
commercial  truck,  heavy equipment and supply sales in Rhode Island. In January
2000, the operations  were expanded to include paving and concrete work that had
been done  individually  by family  members  associated  with the  Company.  The
current  expansion,  in the Northeast of building trades,  road construction and
repair,  and a booming  economy  that  allows  individuals  to make  repairs  or
improvements to their properties made this expansion feasible.

COMPARISON  OF THE RESULTS OF  OPERATIONS  FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED AUGUST 31,
2000 AND 1999.

        Net sales for the three months ended August 31, 2000 increased  67.7% to
$645,662 from $385,105 for the three months ended August 31, 1999.  The increase
is directly attributable to the addition of the manufacturing segment's revenues
of $543,581 that began operations June 1, 2000. Cost of goods sold for the three
months  ended  August 31, 2000 was  $240,783  compared to $264,691 for the three
months ended August 31, 1999. Gross margin for the three months ended August 31,
2000 was  $404,879  compared to $120,414  for the three  months ended August 31,
1999. The gross profit margin percentage increased to 62.7% for the three months
ending August 31, 2000 from a 31.3% gross profit margin percentage for the three
months  ended  August 31,  1999.  The increase is due to the higher gross profit
margins of the manufacturing segment.

        Operating  expenses  increased  to $449,731  for the three  months ended
August 31, 2000 from  $338,412  for the three  months ended August 31, 1999 as a
result of the addition of the manufacturing segment.

        The net loss for the three  months  ended  August 31, 2000 was  $266,644
($.09 per common  share)  compared  to a net loss of  $377,891  ($.16 per common
share) for the three  months  ended  August 31,  1999.  The increase is directly
attributable  to a low sales activity in the product  marketing  segment for the
three  months ended August 31, 2000 as compared to the three months ended August
31, 1999.

COMPARISON OF THE RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED AUGUST 31, 2000
AND 1999.

        Net sales for the six months  ended August 31, 2000  increased  30.9% to
$736,707 from $562,820 for the six months ended August 31, 1999. The increase is
directly  attributable to the inclusion of  manufacturing  division  revenues of
$543,581 that did not exist in the six months  ending  August 31, 1999.  Cost of
goods sold for the six months  ended  August 31, 2000 was  $264,086  compared to
$369,549  for the six months  ended  August 31,  1999.  Gross margin for the six
months  ended  August 31, 2000 was  $472,621  compared  to $193,271  for the six
months ended August 31, 1999. The gross profit margin increased to 64.2% for the
six months  ending  August 31,  2000 an  increase  of 87.2% over the 34.3% gross
profit  margin for the six months  ended  August 31,  1999.  The increase in the
gross profit  margin is primarily due to the increase in the gross profit margin
of paving over truck and supply  sales gross  profit  margin and the 62.4% gross
profit margin in the newly included manufacturing sector.

        Operating expenses increased to $724,078 for the six months ended August
31, 2000 from $664,501 for the six months ended August 31, 1999. The increase is
due to the addition of the manufacturing segment for the six months ended August
31, 2000 as compared to the six months ended August 31, 1999.

        The net loss for the six months ended August 31, 2000 was $649,977 ($.22
per common share) compared to a net loss of $777,338 ($.33 per common share) for
the six months ended August 31, 1999. The decrease is directly  attributable  to
the  inclusion  of the profits  from the new  segments  for the six months ended
August 31, 2000 as compared to the six months ended August 31, 1999.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

        Net cash used in  operating  activities  was  $72,978 for the six months
ended  August 31, 2000  compared to $335,106 for the six months ended August 31,
1999. Accounts receivable increased $55,152 from February 29, 2000 to August 31,
2000 as a result of increases  in the  construction  management  segment and the
addition of the manufacturing segment.  Inventory increased with the addition of
the manufacturing segment during the first six months of fiscal 2001.

        Cash flow from  operations  and  short-term  loans  provided the working
capital  needs and principal  payments on long-term  debt through the six months
ended August 31, 2000.  However,  the Company requires  additional  financing to
provide for working  capital  needs and  principal  payments on  long-term  debt
during the year ended  February  28, 2001 and to meet its  business  strategy of
achieving  significant  expansion  in revenue  for all  divisions  and to expand
through  strategic  acquisitions  and  alliances.  The Company has been actively
seeking  additional  debt  and/or  equity  financing;  however,  there can be no
assurance that  financing will be available to the Company on acceptable  terms,
if at all.

        Through August 31, 2000, the Company has experienced substantial losses,
and at August 31, 2000 had an accumulated  deficit of approximately  $8,669,796.
The Company has not been able to pay all of its  obligations as they have become
due,  and expects to incur much  smaller  additional  losses  before it achieves
profitable operations.  The receipt of funding from any current commitments will
allow the Company to continue its restructuring plan.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - PRODUCT MARKETING

        Product marketing revenue decreased by 90.2%, or $423,196 to $45,748 for
the six months ended August 31, 2000 from $468,944 due to the lack of capital to
adequately  market the product line and the  intention to change its  direction.
Cost of goods sold decreased by 95.4%, or $328,361 to $14,966 for the six months
ended August 31, 2000 due to the decreased sales of our merchandise. General and
administrative  expenses  declined by 33.0%, or $136,830 to $278,285 for the six
months ended August 31, 2000. This decrease is directly related to the reduction
of salaries  and  benefits,  travel,  freight and  delivery,  and  miscellaneous
expenses that comprise  $108,651 of the reduction in the six months ended August
31, 2000 compared to the six month period ending August 31, 1999.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - MANUFACTURING

        Manufacturing revenues were $173,217 from machining operations, $261,152
from the parts sales  operation,  and $109,212 from the heavy equipment  service
operations  for the six months ended  August 31,  2000.  Cost of goods sold were
$204,595 from the division for the six months ended August 31, 2000. General and
administrative  expenses were $150,729 for the six months ended August 31, 2000.
There are no comparable periods in 1999 as the operation did not exist.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - CONSTRUCTION MANAGEMENT

        Construction management revenue increased by 57%, or $53,502 to $147,378
for the six months ended  August 31, 2000 from $93,876 due to the reduced  sales
of  commercial  vehicles and the closure of the truck lot in Rhode  Island.  The
division  changed  its focus to  providing  paving and  concrete  services  that
produced  revenues of $142,267 during this period.  Cost of goods sold increased
by 69.8%,  or $18,303 to $44,525 for the six months ended August 31, 2000 due to
the change in direction of the operations and the differential in profit margins
between the  construction  activities and the sale of used commercial  vehicles.
General and  administrative  expenses  increased by 40.2%, or $22,889 to $79,883
for the six months ended August 31,  2000.  The increase is directly  related to
the addition of payroll,  the  reduction of overhead and staff needed to operate
the  truck  lot in Rhode  Island,  and the  increase  in  insurance  related  to
workmen's compensation, liability and bonding.
