Item 1.  Consolidated Financial Statements

         Texfi Industries, Inc. (the Company") has prepared the consolidated
financial statements included herein, without audit, pursuant to the rules and
regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. The consolidated balance
sheet as of November 1, 1996 has been taken from the audited financial
statements as of that date. Certain information and note 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, although the Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to
make the information presented not misleading. It is suggested that these
consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the consolidated
financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's latest Annual
Report on Form 10-K.

         The consolidated financial statements included herein reflect all
adjustments (none of which are other than normal recurring accruals) which are,
in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the
information included. Operating results for the thirteen-week and thirty-nine
week periods ended August 1, 1997 are not necessarily indicative of the results
that may be expected for the year ended October 31, 1997. The following
consolidated financial statements are included:

         Consolidated Statements of Income for the thirteen weeks and
thirty-nine weeks ended August 1, 1997 and August 2, 1996

2. Net income per share has been computed using the weighted average number of
common shares and common share equivalents outstanding during the period. The
difference between primary and fully diluted net income per share is not
material for the periods presented.
         In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued
Statement No. 128, EARNINGS PER SHARE, which is required to be adopted for
periods ending after December 15, 1997. Upon adoption, the Company will be
required to change the method currently used to compute earnings per share and
restate all prior periods. Under the new requirements for calculating primary
earnings per share, the dilutive effect of stock options, if any, will be
excluded. The impact of Statement No. 128 on the calculation of both the
Company's primary and fully diluted earnings per share for the periods presented
is not expected to be material.

weeks ended August 2, 1996 has been restated to reflect the manufacturing
operations of the Company's Kingstree Knit Apparel division as discontinued
operations.

Item 2.  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial

         Condition and Results of Operations

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS:

         Net sales for the thirteen weeks ended August 1, 1997 increased to
$54,158,000 as compared to $50,459,000 for the thirteen weeks ended August 2,
1996. This $3,699,000 (7.3%) increase resulted from increased sales at the
Company's Texfi Blends division ("Texfi Blends")($4,863,000), which were
partially offset by decreased sales at the Company's Narrow Fabrics division
("Narrow Fabrics") ($1,164,000). Year-to-date net sales for 1997 totaling
$156,927,000 increased $18,133,000 (13.1%) when compared to sales of
$138,794,000 for the same thirty-nine week period in fiscal 1996. This increase
reflects increased sales of $20,600,000 at Texfi Blends, which was offset
partially by decreases in Narrow Fabrics' sales of $2,500,000. Third quarter and
year-to-date increased sales by Texfi Blends were attributable to higher demand
and shipments for many of this division's synthetic fabrics which are sold to
apparel and specialty markets. Decreases in Narrow Fabrics' sales resulted from
closure of the Company's woven narrow fabrics facility on November 1, 1996 which
offset gains in sales of knitted elastic fabrics totaling $1,500,000 and
$3,400,000 for the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks in fiscal 1997, respectively,
when compared to 1996 results.

         For the comparable thirteen-week period, cost of goods sold, as a
percentage of net sales, increased from 86.1% in 1996 to 88.3% in 1997. For the
comparable thirty-nine week periods in 1997 and 1996, cost of goods sold as a
percentage of net sales remained constant at 86.6%. During 1997, Texfi Blends
experienced lower margins, primarily a result of higher labor costs associated
with the installation of $18,000,000 of new equipment, the resulting need to
train associates to operate this equipment, and manufacturing inefficiencies
created by increasing production rates to maximum levels in order to meet higher
customer demand. There were, however, improvements during 1997 at Narrow Fabrics
as a result of closing the woven elastic operations and a better mix of higher
margin knitted elastic products sold.

         Selling, general and administrative expenses ("SG&A") decreased from
7.5% to 7.4% as a percentage of net sales for the thirteen weeks ended August 1,
1997 when compared to same period a year ago and increased from 7.0% to 7.3% for
the comparable thirty-nine week periods. The year-to-date increase, as a
percentage of net sales, is primarily due to greater distribution costs in order
to accommodate the increased sales volume as well as costs incurred to expand
into new markets.

                                       8

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (continued):

         Interest expense increased $14,000 (0.6%) from $2,567,000 during the
third thirteen-week period in 1996 to $2,581,000 in 1997. For the comparable
thirty-nine week periods, interest expense increased $121,000 (1.6%) from
$7,683,000 to $7,804,000. These increases resulted from higher floating rates on
debt outstanding which offset principal reductions made since the third quarter
of 1996.

         The equity in loss of unconsolidated subsidiary of $423,000 in the
third fiscal quarter and $982,000 for the first thirty-nine weeks of 1997
represents the Company's share of costs related to the startup of RIVAL, LLC.
RIVAL, LLC., which is jointly owned by the Company and NHL Enterprises, was
created to market and source a branded line of hockey-related apparel.

FINANCIAL CONDITION:

         At August 1, 1997, working capital equaled $26.7 million, a decrease of
$900,000 from November 1, 1996. This decrease in working capital is due
primarily to the increase in accounts payable and other liabilities ($1.7
million) and decrease in inventories ($333,000) which were not entirely offset
by increases in accounts receivable ($300,000), prepaid expenses ($304,000), and
cash and cash equivalents ($339,000) and a decrease in current maturities
($255,000).

         During the first thirty-nine weeks of 1997, operating activities
generated net cash of $6.9 million. This cash was generated as a result of net
income of $885,000, the equity in loss of unconsolidated subsidiary of $982,000,
depreciation and amortization of $3.9 million, along with increases in accounts
payables and accrued liabilities of $1.3 million and decreases in inventories of
$333,000 which more than offset increases in accounts receivable of $300,000 and
prepaid and other assets of $113,000. Net cash flow provided by operations of
$6.9 million, $2.7 million in proceeds from the sale of property, plant and
equipment of discontinued operations, $6.7 million from the sale-lease back of
property, plant and equipment, net proceeds from the revolving line of credit of
$2.2 million and cash on hand provided funds to repay long-term debt and
debentures of $8.0 million, purchase property, plant and equipment totaling $8.0
million, and invest $2.4 million in the unconsolidated subsidiary.

FINANCIAL CONDITION (continued):

         On March 15, 1996, the Company entered into a $74.0 million credit
facility (subsequently amended to $71.0 million), of which $54.7 million was
initially utilized. Net proceeds from the credit facility were applied toward
the previously existing term loans and outstanding factor advances. The new
facility consisted of a $19.0 million term loan, payable in 29 equal monthly
installments with a balloon payment in September 1998, and a revolving credit
line which, as amended, cannot exceed $52.0 million during the life of the
facility. The revolving credit line, which expires on the same date as the term
loan's final maturity, replaced the Company's factor advance arrangements. As of
August 1, 1997, funds available under the revolving credit line, which
represents the difference between the borrowing base as defined by the facility
agreement and the revolving credit line outstanding, approximated $5.8 million.
The credit facility is secured by substantially all of the Company's assets. The
credit facility currently provides for the Company to elect interest rates based
upon a LIBOR or prime interest rate plus applicable margin. The applicable
margin is adjusted each fiscal year based upon the Company's leverage ratio as
defined in the credit facility. In addition, the Company may elect interest
periods of 30, 60, 90 or 180 days.

         The facility places limitations on the Company's rental expense,
additional indebtedness, acquisitions, capital expenditures, payment of
subordinated debentures, and sale or disposal of assets. The Company is required
to maintain a minimum net worth and comply with certain financial ratios,
including current ratio, coverage ratio, and leverage ratio, each as defined by
the facility. This facility has been periodically amended to ease the
restrictive covenants therein so that the Company would remain in compliance
with all covenant requirements and effect certain other changes. As of August 1,
1997, the Company was in compliance with all of the facility's financial
covenants.

         The Company had $3.2 million of 11-1/4% Convertible Senior Subordinated
Debentures outstanding as of August 1, 1997. These debentures, which are
convertible to common stock at the option of the debenture holders for $6.69 per
share, mature on October 1, 1997 and are classified as a current liability.

         As of August 1, 1997 the Company has approximately $2.4 million of its
Series C Debentures outstanding. The annual interest rate of these debentures
may be adjusted at the sole discretion of the Company on April 1st of each year
until maturity in the year 2000. The Company set the Series C interest rate at
13.0% for the period April 1, 1997 through March 31, 1998. The Series C
Debentures are redeemable on April 1st of each year, in whole or in part, at the
option of the holder or the Company for the principal amount thereof plus
accrued interest through the date of redemption.

                                       10
<PAGE>

FINANCIAL CONDITION (continued):

         As of August 1, 1997, the Company had outstanding approximately $34.4
million of its Senior Subordinated Debentures due August 1, 1999 ("8-3/4%
Debentures"). The 8-3/4% Debentures, which cannot be called prior to their
maturity date, are unsecured obligations. These debentures contain covenants
that place limitations on the use of proceeds from the disposal of assets and on
the incurrence of additional indebtedness and senior indebtedness (as defined in
the indenture governing the 8-3/4% Debentures (the "Indenture")) if such
indebtedness would exceed stated ratios of capitalization and earnings after
such incurrence. Under the most restrictive of these covenants, the Company may
not incur additional indebtedness if, after giving effect to such incurrence,
the aggregate amount of indebtedness of the Company would exceed 75% of the sum
of all indebtedness and stockholders' (deficit) equity. The Company is currently
prohibited by this covenant from incurring additional indebtedness other than
advances under its revolving credit line and operating leases. This restriction
on the incurrence of additional indebtedness was waived by debenture holders
with respect to the new credit facility. As a condition to the waiver, the
Company executed a Second Supplemental Indenture dated March 15, 1996 which
provided that beginning on the last business day of September 1998 and
continuing on the last business day of each month thereafter to and including
June 1999, the Company will deposit with the Indenture's trustee $600,000 less
an amount equal to 8-3/4% Debentures repurchased during the period prior to the
monthly payment date. Total deposits, including interest earned thereon, are to
be paid as principal and interest when the 8-3/4% Debentures are due.

         The Company plans to place into service $11.6 million of machinery and
equipment during fiscal 1997. This equipment primarily will increase dyeing and
finishing capacity as well as replace older weaving equipment with new looms in
order to improve production speed, efficiency and product quality and to expand
styling diversity. Management anticipates that $10.9 million of the $11.6
million of equipment will be placed into service through operating leases and
thus not included in the Company's balance sheet. For the thirty-nine weeks
ended August 1, 1997, $8.0 million had been expended on machinery and equipment
purchases and $6.7 million received from proceeds of sale-lease back
transactions related to this equipment.

         The Company has entered into nonbinding letters of intent to sell both
its Narrow Fabrics operations and its Graham, North Carolina facility, an asset
held for disposal. These two separate transactions are subject to certain
conditions, including the execution of definitive purchase agreements and Board
of Directors approval. The transactions, if consummated, are anticipated to
close during the Company's fourth fiscal quarter and any net proceeds would be
used by the Company to reduce its long-term debt and revolving credit line.

                                       11
<PAGE>


FINANCIAL CONDITION (continued):

         Management believes cash flows from operations, funds available under
the revolving credit line, and net proceeds from the disposal of assets held for
disposal will provide the Company with sufficient sources of funds to meet its
fiscal 1997 cash needs, and, assuming no significant deterioration in current
market conditions or interest rates, for the foreseeable future.
