NOTE 1 - ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have
been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for
interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article
10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information
and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete
financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting
of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have
been included. Operating results for the three month period ended September 30,
2002 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the
year ended June 30, 2003. For further information, refer to the consolidated
financial statements and footnotes thereto included in our 2002 Annual Report.

NOTE 2 - IMPACT OF NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

Effective July 1, 2002, we adopted Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards, commonly referred to as SFAS, No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible
Assets." Please refer to Note 6 for information regarding goodwill and other
intangible assets and the impact the adoption of this statement had on our
condensed consolidated financial statements.

In July 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 143,
"Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations," effective for fiscal years
beginning after June 15, 2002. This statement addresses financial accounting and
reporting for legal obligations associated with the retirement of tangible
long-lived assets and the associated asset retirement costs. We adopted SFAS No.
143 during the first quarter of fiscal 2003. The adoption of this statement did
not have a material effect on our consolidated financial position or statements
of income, stockholders' equity and cash flows.

In August 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No.
144, "Accounting for Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets," effective for
fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001. This statement addresses
financial accounting and reporting for the impairment or disposal of long-lived
assets. We adopted SFAS No. 144 during the first quarter of fiscal 2003. The
adoption of this statement did not have a material effect on our consolidated
financial position or statements of income, stockholders' equity and cash flows.

In July 2002, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 146,
"Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities." This
statement addresses financial accounting and reporting for costs associated with
exit or disposal activities, such as restructurings, terminating employees
involuntarily and consolidating facilities. SFAS No. 146 is effective for exit
and disposal activities that are initiated after December 31, 2002. We do no not
expect the adoption of this statement to have a material effect on our
consolidated financial position or statements of income, stockholders' equity
and cash flows.

NOTE 5 - DISCLOSURES ABOUT SEGMENTS OF AN ENTERPRISE AND RELATED INFORMATION

We sell our products to a variety of retail outlets, including mass
merchants, national chain stores, major department stores, men's and women's
specialty stores, catalog retailers, grocery stores, drug stores, golf pro
shops, sporting goods stores and the retail exchange operations of the United
States military. To facilitate our internal operations as well as our customer
relationships, we organize our products along men's and women's product lines.
As a result, we have two reportable segments: men's accessories, consisting of
belts, wallets, suspenders and other small leather goods and women's
accessories, consisting of belts, wallets, handbags, socks, scarves, hats and
hair accessories. We allocate general corporate expenses to each segment based
on the respective segment's asset base. We allocate depreciation and
amortization expense related to assets recorded on our corporate accounting
records to each segment as described above. We measure profit or loss on each
segment based on income or loss before taxes utilizing the accounting policies
consistent in all material respects with those described in Note 1 of our 2002
Annual Report. No inter-segment revenue is recorded.

The following table sets forth information regarding operations and assets

NOTE 6 - GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLE ASSETS

Effective July 1, 2002, we adopted SFAS No. 142, "Goodwill and Other
Intangible Assets." This statement changed the accounting for goodwill and
indefinite-lived intangible assets from an amortization approach to an
impairment-only approach. The SFAS No. 142 goodwill impairment model is a
two-step process. The first step compares the fair value of a reporting unit
that has goodwill assigned to it, to its carrying value. We estimate the fair
value of a reporting unit using discounted cash flow analysis. If the fair value
of the reporting unit is determined to be less than its carrying value, a second
step is performed to compute the amount of goodwill impairment, if any. Step two
allocates the fair value of the reporting unit to the reporting unit's net
assets other than goodwill. The excess of the fair value of the reporting unit
over the amounts assigned to its net assets other than goodwill is considered
the implied fair value of the reporting unit's goodwill. The implied fair value
of the reporting unit's goodwill is then compared to the carrying value of its
goodwill. Any shortfall represents the amount of goodwill impairment.

Using the SFAS No. 142 approach described above, we recorded a transitional
goodwill impairment charge during the first quarter of fiscal 2003 of $950,000
($581,000 net of tax), presented as a cumulative effect of accounting change.
This charge related to our women's segment of products.

The transitional impairment charge resulted from application of the new
impairment methodology introduced by SFAS No. 142. Previous accounting rules
incorporated a comparison of carrying value to undiscounted cash flows, whereas
new rules require a comparison of carrying value to fair value, which are lower.
Under previous requirements, no goodwill impairment would have been recorded on
July 1, 2002.

Pursuant to SFAS No. 142, goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets
must be tested for impairment annually at the same time every year, and in
between annual testing dates if an event occurs or circumstances change that
would more likely than not reduce the fair value of the reporting unit below its
carrying value.

In conjunction with the adoption of SFAS No. 142, we reassessed the useful
lives and the classification of our finite-lived acquired intangible assets and
determined that no revisions were necessary. The following table illustrates the
gross carrying amount and accumulated amortization of our acquired intangible
assets as of September 30, 2002 and June 30, 2002 (in thousands).

TANDY BRANDS ACCESSORIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

================================================================================

For the three month period ended September 30, 2002, net sales increased
10.9% to $60,028,000 compared to net sales of $54,106,000 for the same period
last year. Net sales of men's accessories increased 11.4% for the three month
period ended September 30, 2002 compared to the same period last year. We
attribute the increase in net sales of men's accessories to a greater number of
mass merchant store orders than originally expected. Similarly, the net sales of
women's accessories increased 10.5% for the three month period ended September
30, 2002 compared to the same period last year. We attribute the increase in net
sales of women's accessories to increased sales of our Rolfs(R) handbags,
licensed small leather goods and belts such as LEVI'S(R) and DOCKERS(R) as well
as increased sales of women's mass merchant accessories.

Gross margins increased by $1,752,000 for the three month period ended
September 30, 2002, or 9.2% compared to the same period last year. As a
percentage of sales, gross margins decreased 0.6% for the three month period
ended September 30, 2002 compared to the same period last year. The overall
decrease was due to a greater sales mix weighted towards mass merchant
accessories and an initial direct sales shipment of women's accessories to
Payless Shoes.

OPERATING EXPENSES

Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of net sales
for the three months ended September 30, 2002 increased 0.6% compared to the
same period last year. The increase resulted from higher salary expense due to
nonrecurring costs associated with the implementation of distribution software
in our Dallas, Texas distribution center totaling $290,000, as well as severance
costs totaling $430,000.

Depreciation and amortization expenses as a percentage of net sales for the
three months ended September 30, 2002 decreased 0.8% to $1,080,000, compared to
$1,387,000 in the same period of the prior year. We attribute this decrease
primarily to the adoption of SFAS No. 142 "Goodwill and Other Intangible
Assets," in which goodwill is no longer amortized (see note 6). Goodwill
amortization expense for the same three month period in the prior year was
approximately $256,000.

Interest expense for the three month period ended September 30, 2002
decreased $120,000 compared to the same period last year. This decrease
primarily relates to lower interest rates as well as lower debt levels compared
to the same period last year.

The effective tax rate for the three months ended September 30, 2002 was
38.9%, which is consistent with the same period last year.

Net income, before the cumulative effect of accounting change resulting
from the adoption of SFAS No. 142, for the three month period ended September
30, 2002 increased 9.8% to $2,395,000, or $.40 per diluted share, compared to
net income of $2,182,000, or $.38 per diluted share, for the same period last
year.

In June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 142,
"Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets." Under the new rules, goodwill and
indefinite-lived intangible assets are no longer amortized but are reviewed
annually for impairment. Separable intangible assets that do not have an
indefinite life will continue to be amortized over their useful lives.

As discussed in our 2002 Annual Report, the required adoption of SFAS No.
142 is considered a change in accounting principle and the cumulative effect of
adopting this standard resulted in a non-cash after-tax charge in the first
quarter of fiscal 2003 of $581,000, or $(0.10) per diluted share. This amount
does not affect our on-going operations. The adoption of the new accounting
standard will result in a reduction in amortization expense of approximately $1
million.

Net income, after the cumulative effect of accounting change resulting from
the adoption of SFAS No. 142, for the three month period ended September 30,
2002 was $1,814,000, or $.30 per diluted share, compared to net income of
$2,182,000, or $.38 per diluted share, for the same period last year.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

For the three months ended September 30, 2002, our operating activities used
cash of $13,320,000 compared to $6,898,000 for the same period last year. We
attribute this increase in the use of cash to the timing of disbursements
related to fall season inventory procurement. Additionally, during fiscal 2002,
improved inventory control measures were introduced which reduced our use of
cash as compared to the same period in fiscal 2001.

Capital expenditures totaled $691,000 for the three months ended September
30, 2002, an increase of $542,000 from the same period last year. We attribute
this increase to the implementation of a distribution software application
during the first quarter of fiscal 2003. We anticipate that our capital
expenditures for fiscal 2003 will approximate our capital investments of
property and equipment for fiscal 2002. Capital commitments for fiscal 2003
include additional equipment for our distribution facility in Dallas, Texas, as
well as additional hardware and software applications. We expect to fund our
fiscal 2003 capital commitments through cash flows from operations and drawing
on our existing credit facility.

Generally, our primary sources of liquidity are cash flows from operations
and our line of credit. We have an $80,000,000 committed secured revolving
credit facility, which can be used for seasonal borrowings and letters of
credit. This credit facility is secured by substantially all of our assets along
with our subsidiaries' assets and requires us to maintain certain financial
covenants which, if not maintained, could adversely impact our liquidity
position. Our borrowings under our credit facility were $38,352,000 as of
September 30, 2002 and $54,956,000 as of September 30, 2001. As of September 30,
2002, we had approximately $33,816,000 of credit available to us under our
credit facility.

We have never paid a cash dividend on our common stock. We currently intend
to retain earnings for the foreseeable future to provide funds for the expansion
of our business and the reduction of debt. Our existing credit facility
restricts our ability to pay dividends.

We believe we have adequate financial resources and access to sufficient
credit lines to satisfy our future working capital needs.

OFF BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

We do not have transactions, arrangements or relationships with "special
purpose" entities, nor do we have any off balance sheet debt.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The preparation of our consolidated financial statements in accordance with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires the use
of estimates that affect the reported value of assets, liabilities, revenues and
expenses. These estimates are based on historical experience and various other
factors we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of
which form the basis for our conclusions. We continually evaluate the
information used to make these estimates as the business and economic
environment changes. Actual results may differ from these estimates under
different assumptions or conditions. The use of estimates is pervasive
throughout the consolidated financial statements, but the accounting policies
and estimates considered most critical are as follows:

REVENUES

We recognize revenue when merchandise is shipped to customers and title to
the goods has passed to the customer. We record sales returns and allowances at
the time we can reasonably estimate the amounts.

We perform periodic credit evaluations of our customers' financial
conditions and generally do not require collateral. Credit losses have
historically been within our expectations.

================================================================================

INVENTORIES

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (principally standard cost
which approximates actual cost on a first-in, first-out basis) or market. Cost
includes materials, direct and indirect labor and factory overhead. Market, with
respect to raw materials, is replacement cost; and for work-in-process and
finished goods, it is net realizable value. If circumstances arise in which the
market value of items in inventory decline below cost, an inventory markdown
would be estimated and charged to expense in the period identified. We closely
monitor fashion trend items and anticipate additional inventory markdowns if
market indications in fashion trends justify further reserves.

GOODWILL

We adopted the provisions of SFAS No. 142, effective July 1, 2002. This
statement changed the accounting for goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible
assets from an amortization approach to an impairment-only approach. The SFAS
No. 142 goodwill impairment model is a two-step process. The first step compares
the fair value of a reporting unit that has goodwill assigned to it, to its
carrying value. We estimate the fair value of a reporting unit using discounted
cash flow analysis. If the fair value of the reporting unit is determined to be
less than its carrying value, a second step is performed to compute the amount
of goodwill impairment, if any. Step two allocates the fair value of the
reporting unit to the reporting unit's net assets other than goodwill. The
excess of the fair value of the reporting unit over the amounts assigned to its
net assets other than goodwill is considered the implied fair value of the
reporting unit's goodwill. The implied fair value of the reporting unit's
goodwill is then compared to the carrying value of its goodwill. Any shortfall
represents the amount of goodwill impairment.

We continually evaluate whether events and circumstances have occurred that
indicate the remaining balance of goodwill may not be recoverable. In evaluating
impairment, we estimate the sum of the expected future cash flows derived from
such goodwill. Such evaluations for impairment are significantly impacted by
estimates of future revenues, costs and expenses and other factors.

DERIVATIVES

Our risk management policy as it relates to derivative investments is
to mitigate, subject to market conditions, against interest rate risk. We do not
enter into any derivative investments for the purpose of speculative investment.
We reevaluate our overall risk management philosophy as business conditions
arise.

SEASONALITY

Our quarterly sales, net income and use of cash results are fairly
consistent throughout the fiscal year, with a seasonal increase during the
second quarter.

INFLATION

Although our operations are affected by general economic trends, we do not
believe inflation has had a material effect on our results of operations.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This Form 10-Q contains forward looking statements that are based on
current expectations, estimates and projections about the industry in which we
operate, management's beliefs, and assumptions made by management. In addition,
other written or oral statements which constitute forward-looking statements may
be made by or on our behalf. Words such as "expect," "anticipate," "intend,"
"plan," "believe," "seek," "estimate," or variations of such words and similar
expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. These
statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve certain risks,
uncertainties and assumptions which are difficult to predict. Therefore, actual
outcomes and results may differ materially from what is expressed or forecasted
in these forward-looking statements. We undertake no obligation to update
publicly any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information,
future events or otherwise.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

We are subject to interest rate risk on our long-term debt. We manage our
exposure to changes in interest rates by the use of variable and fixed interest
rate debt. In addition, we have hedged our exposure to changes in interest rates
on a portion of our variable debt by entering into an interest rate swap
agreement to lock in a fixed interest rate for a portion of these borrowings. At
September 30, 2002, our borrowings under our credit facility totaled
$38,352,000, bearing a weighted-average interest rate of 4.46%. On July 1, 2001,
we entered into a three year interest rate swap agreement with Wells Fargo Bank,
N.A., which expires on June 27, 2004, converting $30,000,000 of outstanding
indebtedness from a variable to a fixed interest rate. The average receive rate
is based on a 90-day LIBOR rate. At September 30, 2002, the receive rates
related to the interest rate swap were 1.86% and the pay rates related to
interest rate swap were 5.60%. Interest differentials paid or received under the
swap agreement are reflected as an adjustment to interest expense when paid. The
interest rate swap agreement represents a valid cash flow hedge investment under
SFAS No. 133. As such, during fiscal 2003 and 2002, changes in the fair value of
the interest rate swap were recognized as other comprehensive income with the
fair value at September 30, 2002, approximating ($2,184,000). The potential
impact of market conditions on the fair value of our indebtedness is not
expected to be material. Given that such lines of credit bear interest at
floating market interest rates, the fair value of amounts borrowed thereunder
approximates carrying value.

Theoretically, we are also exposed to market risk with respect to changes
in the global price level of certain commodities used in the production of our
products. We routinely purchase leather hides during the year for use in the
manufacture of men's belts. We also purchase a substantial amount of leather
items from third-party suppliers. An unanticipated material increase in the
market price of leather could increase the cost of these products to us and
therefore have a negative effect on our results of operations.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Within the 90-day period prior to the date of this report, we carried out
an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of management,
including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, of the
effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and
procedures pursuant to Rule 13a-14 of the Exchange Act. Based upon that
evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer
concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective in timely
alerting them to material information relating to us (including our consolidated
subsidiaries) required to be included in our Exchange Act filings.

There have been no significant changes in our internal controls or in other
factors that could significantly affect internal controls subsequent to the date
we carried out our evaluation.
