On June 6, 2003 the  Company  renewed  its  revolving  credit  line (the  "Facility").  The  Facility  provides  for
borrowings of up to $95.0 million,  subject to certain  borrowing base  limitations.  Borrowings  under the Facility
bear variable  rates of interest  based on LIBOR plus an  applicable  margin (3.7% at June 28, 2003) and are secured
by substantially  all of the Company's  domestic  assets.  The Facility matures in June 2006. Under the terms of the
Facility,  the Company is only subject to financial  covenants when availability is below $20.0 million.  As of June
28, 2003, $42.1 million was available for borrowings under the Facility.

As of June 28, 2003, the Company  violated  certain of the financial  covenants  associated with a real estate loan,
held by Bank of America,  and was in technical  default under terms of the real estate loan and in technical default
under the terms of the  Facility,  due to the cross  default  provision.  Fleet  Capital  has agreed to assume  this
real estate loan and eliminate all financial  covenants.  Additionally,  all other lenders in the Facility agreed to
waive the cross default  provision  that was triggered by the default on the real estate loan.  The Company is party
to an interest  rate swap  agreement  which had the effect of fixing the  interest  rate on $7.0 million of the real
estate loan.  The Company will  terminate the interest rate swap agreement  concurrent  with Fleet Capital  assuming
the loan and record a charge in the fourth  quarter of  approximately  $1.2 million to terminate  the interest  rate
swap.

For periods  where the company  incurred a net  operating  loss,  the effect of stock  options is excluded from the
computation  of  diluted  earnings  per  share  because  their  inclusion  in  the  calculation   would  have  been
anti-dilutive.


5.  SALE OF DUCK HEAD(R)TRADEMARKS

On June 2, 2003,  the Company  announced its sale of the Duck Head(R)trademarks to Goody's  Family  Clothing,  Inc.
("Goody's")  for $4.0 million in cash.  Under the purchase  agreement,  the Company will  continue to sell existing
Duck Head(R) inventory for a period of time and Goody's will purchase certain remaining  inventory from the Company
no later than October 1, 2003.  Goody's has also assumed all licenses  associated  with the Duck Head(R)trademarks.
In connection  with the sale,  the Company  recorded a net gain of $3.7 million,  which is net of expenses  related
the sale and a reduction of certain of the remaining assets, including inventory.

On January 20, 2003,  the Company  announced its intention to exit its Duck Head(R)retail outlet business as leases
expired.  With  the  sale of the  Duck  Head(R)trademarks,  the  timing  of the exit  from  this  business  will be
accelerated  and a  substantial  portion  of the net  proceeds  from  the  sale of the  brand  will be used for the
accelerated closure.  All retail outlet stores are expected to be closed no later than September 2003.


8.  RESTRUCTURING OF SAVANE INTERNATIONAL CORP.

On April 18, 2002, the Company  announced a plan to consolidate the  administrative,  cutting and related functions
of the Savane division in El Paso, Texas into the Tampa,  Florida  facility.  The Company has completed all aspects
of this  consolidation in the fiscal quarter ending March 29, 2003. As part of the  consolidation,  the Company has
vacated its El Paso, Texas administration building and cutting facility.


As a result of these  initiatives  (internally  referred  to as  "Project  Synergy"),  the  Company  recorded  exit
accruals  related to this  consolidation  during  fiscal 2002.  As of June 28, 2003,  the Company has an accrual of
approximately  $1.7 million,  related to exit costs,  which primarily consist of lease  terminations.  The activity
in the exit  accruals  related to  Project  Synergy  during  the  thirty-nine  weeks  ended  June 28,  2003 were as
follows:

9.  RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In October  2001,  the  Financial  Accounting  Standards  Board (FASB)  issued  Statement  of Financial  Accounting
Standard No. 144,  "Accounting  for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived  Assets"  (Statement  No. 144),  which
is effective  for  financial  statements  issued for fiscal  years  beginning  after  December 15, 2001 and interim
periods within those fiscal years.  Statement No. 144  supersedes  Statement of Financial  Accounting  Standard No.
121,  "Accounting  for the  Impairment  of  Long-Lived  Assets and for  Long-Lived  Assets to be Disposed  Of," and
provides a single  accounting  model for  long-lived  assets to be disposed of. The  adoption of Statement  No. 144
has not had a material impact on the Company's financial position and results of operations.

In  April  2002,  the FASB  issued  Statement  of  Financial  Accounting  Standard  No.  145,  "Rescission  of FASB
Statements No. 4, 44 and 64,  Amendment of FASB Statement No. 13, and Technical  Corrections"  (Statement No. 145),
which is effective for fiscal years  beginning  after May 15, 2002.  This Statement  rescinds FASB Statement No. 4,
"Reporting  Gains and  Losses  from  Extinguishment  of  Debt," as well as an  amendment  of that  Statement,  FASB
Statement No. 64,  "Extinguishments  of Debt Made to Satisfy  Sinking-Fund  Requirements," as debt  extinguishments
are no longer  classified as extraordinary  items unless they meet the requirements in Accounting  Principles Board
Opinion No. 30 of being  unusual and  infrequently  occurring.  The  adoption  of  Statement  No. 145 has not had a
material impact on the Company's financial position and results of operations.

In June  2002,  the FASB  issued  Statement  of  Financial  Accounting  Standard  No.  146,  "Accounting  for Costs
Associated  with Exit or  Disposal  Activities"  (Statement  No.  146),  which is  effective  for exit or  disposal
activities  that are initiated  after  December 31, 2002.  Statement No. 146 nullifies  Emerging  Issues Task Force
No. 94-3,  "Liability  Recognition for Certain  Employee  Termination  Benefits and Other Costs to Exit an Activity
(including  Certain Costs Incurred in a  Restructuring)"  (EITF 94-3).  Statement No. 146 requires that a liability
for a cost  associated  with an exit or  disposal  activity  be  recognized  when the  liability  is  incurred  and
eliminates  the definition  and  requirements  of recognition of exit costs in EITF 94-3. The adoption of Statement
No. 146 will affect the timing of recognition of costs associated with any future restructuring activities.

In December 2002, the FASB issued Statement of Financial  Accounting  Standards Statement No. 148,  "Accounting for
Stock-Based  Compensation - Transition  and  Disclosure"  (Statement No. 148),  which is effective for fiscal years
and  interim  periods  beginning  after  December  31,  2002.  Statement  No. 148 amends  FASB  Statement  No. 123,
Accounting for Stock-Based  Compensation,  to provide alternative methods of transition to the fair value method of
accounting  for  stock-based  employee  compensation.   In  addition,  Statement  No.  148  amends  the  disclosure
provisions  of  Statement  123 to require  disclosure  in the  summary of  significant  accounting  policies of the
effects of an entity's accounting policy with respect to stock-based  employee  compensation on reported net income
and earnings per share in annual and interim  financial  statements.  The adoption of Statement No. 148 has not had
a material impact on the Company's financial position and results of operations.

In November 2002,  the Financial Accounting Standards Board  (FASB) issued FASB Interpretation No. 45, "Guarantor's
Accounting  and  Disclosure  Requirements for Guarantees,  Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others"
(FIN 45).  FIN  45  elaborates on  the  existing  disclosure  requirements  for  most  guarantees,  including  loan
guarantees  such  as standby  letters of credit.  It  also clarifies that at the time a company issues a guarantee,
the company  must recognize  an  initial  liability  for  the  fair value,  or market value,  of the obligations it
assumes under  that guarantee and must  disclose  that  information in its interim and annual financial statements.
FIN 45  is  effective  on  a  prospective  basis  to  guarantees  issued  or  modified after December 31, 2002. The
requirements of FIN 45 are  effective  for financial statements of  interim or annual periods ending after December
15, 2002.  We adopted the accounting  and  disclosure requirements of FIN 45,  which resulted in no material impact
on our financial statements.

In January  2003,  the FASB  issued  Interpretation  No. 46,  "Consolidation  of  Variable  Interest  Entities,  an
interpretation  of Accounting  Research Bulletin No. 51" (the  Interpretation).   The  Interpretation  requires the
consolidation of entities in which an enterprise  absorbs a majority of the entity's  expected  losses,  receives a
majority of the entity's  expected  residual  returns,  or both,  as a result of  ownership,  contractual  or other
financial interests in the entity.   Currently,  entities are generally consolidated by an enterprise when it has a
controlling   financial   interest  through  ownership  of  a  majority  voting  interest  in  the  entity.     The
Interpretation's  consolidation  provisions  apply in the interim period beginning June 29, 2003.  The Company does
not expect the Interpretation to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

10.  STOCK OPTION PLAN PRO FORMA INFORMATION

The Company has elected to follow  Accounting  Principles  Board  Opinion No. 25,  "Accounting  for Stock Issued to
Employees"  (APB 25) and  related  interpretations  in  accounting  for its  employee  stock  options  because  the
alternative  fair  value  accounting   provided  for  under  FASB  Statement  123,   "Accounting  for  Stock  Based
Compensation,"  (Statement No. 123) requires the use of option  valuation models that were not developed for use in
valuing  employee stock options.  Under APB 25, because the exercise price of the Company's  employee stock options
equal the market price of the underlying stock on the date of grant, no compensation expense is recognized.

As discussed in Note 6, the interim  information  regarding pro forma net income and earnings per share is required
by Statement  No. 123 and  Statement No. 148. For purposes of pro forma  disclosures,  the estimated  fair value of
the options is amortized to expense over the options'  vesting  period.  The Company's pro forma  information is as
follows (in thousands except for net income per share information):

                                                        Thirteen           Thirteen

11.  SUPPLEMENTAL COMBINING CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The Company's  Senior  Subordinated  Notes,  due 2008 (the "Notes") are jointly and severally  guaranteed fully and
unconditionally  by the  Company's  domestic  subsidiaries  which  are 100%  owned  by  Tropical  Sportswear  Int'l
Corporation  (the "Parent").  The Company's  wholly-owned  foreign  subsidiaries are not guarantors with respect to
the Notes and do not have any credit arrangements  senior to the Notes except for their local overdraft  facilities
and capital lease obligations.

The following is the unaudited  supplemental  combining  condensed  statement of operations  for the thirteen weeks
and thirty-nine  weeks ended June 28, 2003, and the thirteen weeks and  thirty-nine  weeks ended June 29, 2002, the
supplemental  combining  condensed  balance sheet as of June 28, 2003 and September 28, 2002, and the  supplemental
combining  condensed  statement of cash flows for the thirty-nine  weeks ended June 28, 2003, and thirty-nine weeks
ended  June 29,  2002.  The only  intercompany  eliminations  are the normal  intercompany  sales,  borrowings  and
investments in wholly owned  subsidiaries.  Separate complete  financial  statements of the guarantor  subsidiaries
are not presented because management believes that they are not material to investors.

12. CONTINGENCIES

In connection  with the  transition  of the  Company's  Victorinox(R)apparel  division to Swiss Army Brands,  Inc.,
("Swiss Army"),  Swiss Army is currently  disputing certain aspects of the transition  agreement and have failed to
pay  approximately  $4.8  million  due under the  transition  agreement.   On June 3,  2003,  the  Company  filed a
declaratory  judgment action against Swiss Army,  seeking judicial  interpretation  of the agreement.   The Company
and Swiss Army have recently  agreed to mediation in an attempt to quickly resolve the issue.   However,  there can
be no assurance that the $4.8 million will be collected in the fourth quarter or in its entirety.

Other than the above matter,  the Company is not involved in any legal  proceedings,  other than various claims and
lawsuits  arising in the normal course of the Company's  business,  that the Company  believes could  reasonably be
expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial position or results of operations.

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

The  following  discussion  and  analysis  of the  Company's  results of  operations  is based  upon our  unaudited
consolidated  financial  statements,  which have been prepared in accordance with accounting  principles  generally
accepted in the United States.  The  preparation  of financial  statements in conformity  with  generally  accepted
accounting  principles  requires that we make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets,
liabilities,  revenues and expenses,  and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities.  These estimates
and  assumptions  are based on historical and other facts believed to be reasonable  under the  circumstances,  the
results of which form the basis for making  judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities  that are
not  readily  apparent  from other  sources.  Actual  results  may differ  materially  from these  estimates  under
different  assumptions  or  conditions.  We have chosen  accounting  policies  that we believe are  appropriate  to
accurately and fairly report our operating results and financial  position,  and we apply those accounting policies
in a consistent  manner.  We have  identified  the policies  below as critical to our business  operations  and the
understanding of our results of operations.


Critical Accounting Policies

Inventories  -  Inventories  are  stated at the lower of cost or market.  Cost is  determined  using the  first-in,
first-out  method.  We evaluate our inventory by style,  color and size to determine  excess or slow moving product
based on projected  sales.  We record  provisions for markdowns and losses on excess and  slow-moving  inventory to
the  extent  the cost of  inventory  exceeds  estimated  net  realizable  value.  If actual  market  conditions  or
competitive pressures change, the level of inventory reserves would change.

Reserve for  Allowances  and Doubtful  Accounts - Accounts  receivable  consists of amounts due from our  customers
from our normal business  activities.  We maintain a reserve for allowances and doubtful  accounts,  which is based
on  historical  collection  and  deduction  write-off  experience,  and an estimate  of  potential  sales  returns.
Estimates for sales returns  include  provision for order  shortages,  purchase order  variances and other customer
discrepancies.  For fiscal  2002,  we did not  provide a reserve  for  credit  losses as  substantially  all of our
receivables  were assigned under  factoring  agreements,  without  recourse,  except for credit losses on the first
0.10% of amounts  factored.  During  fiscal  2003,  we have  discontinued  factoring of our  receivables,  but have
maintained  credit  insurance for those accounts which we deem  necessary.  We will continue to assess the adequacy
of our reserves based on qualitative and quantitative measures.

Long-Lived  Assets - We estimate the  depreciable  lives of our  property,  plant and equipment and review them for
impairment  when  events or  circumstances  indicate  that their  carrying  amounts  may be  impaired.  Most of our
property,  plant and equipment is used in our cutting and  distribution  processes.  We  periodically  evaluate the
carrying value of assets which are held for sale to determine if, based on market  conditions,  the values of these
assets  should be adjusted.  Although we believe we have  appropriately  recorded our assets held for sale at their
estimated  realizable  value,  net of  estimated  disposal  costs,  the actual sale of these assets could result in
gains or losses  which could  differ from our  estimated  amounts.  To assess the  recoverability  of goodwill  and
other intangible assets, we make assumptions  regarding  estimated future cash flows and other factors to determine
whether the carrying values are recoverable from operations.  If these  assumptions or estimates  change, we may be
required to record impairment charges to reduce the value of these assets.

Valuation  Allowances  for Deferred Tax Assets - Valuation  allowances  are recorded to reduce  deferred tax assets
if,  based on the weight of the  evidence,  it is more likely than not that some or all of the  deferred tax assets
will not be realized.  The evidence  considered  in making that  determination  includes,  offsetting  deferred tax
liabilities,  future taxable income, as well as prudent tax planning  strategies.  We have recorded deferred income
tax assets related to state net operating loss carry forwards,  foreign net operating loss carry forwards,  foreign
tax credit  carry  forwards  and certain  other  accruals.  We have  recorded  valuation  allowances  to reduce the
deferred tax assets  relating to these  operating  loss carry  forwards and accruals  based on an evaluation of the
benefits  expected to be realized.  If we  determine  that we would be able to realize more of our net deferred tax
assets  than we  currently  expect,  we would  reduce  the  valuation  allowance,  which  would  have the effect of
increasing  income in the period that we make the  determination.  Conversely,  if we determine that we will not be
able to  realize  all or part of our net  deferred  tax  assets  in the  future,  we will  increase  the  valuation
allowance, which would have the effect of reducing income in the period that we make the determination.

Contingencies  - The Company  accrues  for  contingent  obligations,  including  estimated  legal  costs,  when the
obligations are probable and the amount is reasonably  estimable.  As facts concerning  contingencies become known,
we reassess  our  position  and make  appropriate  adjustments  to the  financial  statements.  Estimates  that are
particularly  sensitive to future  changes  include  tax,  legal and other  regulatory  matters such as imports and
exports,  which are subject to change as events evolve and as additional  information  becomes available during the
administrative and litigation process.


Results of Operations

On April 18, 2002 we  announced a plan to  consolidate  the  administrative,  cutting and related  functions of the
Savane  division  in El Paso,  Texas  into the Tampa,  Florida  facility.  We have  completed  all  aspects of this
consolidation  in the fiscal quarter ending March 29, 2003. As part of the  consolidation,  we vacated our El Paso,
Texas  administration  building and cutting facility.  We experienced  delays and difficulties in consolidating our
El Paso,  Texas cutting  functions into our Tampa,  Florida  facilities  that have resulted in delays in delivering
products to our  customers  and lost sales in our first  quarter and second  quarters of fiscal 2003.  In addition,
during the first six months of fiscal 2003, we recorded sales allowances of  approximately  $5.6 million related to
delivery issues associated with the consolidation project.

In May 2003,  we  transitioned  our  Victorinox(R)apparel  division to Swiss Army. On June 2, 2003 we sold the Duck
Head(R)trademarks  to Goody's  Family  Clothing,  Inc.  ("Goody's")  for $4.0  million in cash.  Under the purchase
agreement,  the Company will continue to sell  existing Duck Head(R)inventory for a period of time and that Goody's
will  purchase  certain  remaining  inventory  from the  Company no later than  October 1, 2003.  Goody's  has also
assumed all licenses  associated  with the Duck Head(R)trademarks.  On January 20, 2003, we announced our intention
to exit our Duck Head(R)retail outlet business as leases expire.  With the sale of the Duck Head(R) trademarks, the
timing of this exit will be accelerated  and  substantial  portion of the $4.0 million in proceeds will be used for
the  accelerated  closure.  All retail outlet stores are expected to be closed no later than September  2003.  Duck
Head(R), Duck Head(R) retail outlets and Victorinox(R) represent less than 5% of our total Fiscal 2003 year to date
net sales.  We believe that exiting  these  businesses will  free  up valuable resources that can be devoted to our
core business.

We have  continued the  realignment  of our business by disposing of the  unprofitable  businesses  noted above and
reducing  operating  expenses.  We have also  completed the  transition  of our Mexico  production to the Dominican
Republic.

Thirteen weeks ended June 28, 2003 compared to the thirteen weeks ended June 29, 2002

         Net  Sales.  Net sales  decreased  to $96.7  million  for the third  quarter  of fiscal  2003 from  $116.3
million in the  comparable  prior year  quarter.  The decrease was primarily due to a decrease in units shipped and
a decrease in average  price per unit as a result of the poor retail  environment.  Net sales were also impacted by
higher than normal levels of returns and allowances.

         Gross  Profit.  Gross profit  decreased to $9.0  million,  or 9.3% of net sales,  for the third quarter of
fiscal 2003, from $31.4 million,  or 27.0% of net sales,  for the comparable  prior year quarter.  The reduction in
the gross  margin was due to a  combination  of factors  including  lower  average  selling  prices and higher than
normal levels of excess  inventory sold at discounted  prices.  Additionally,  the market for excess  inventory has
become much more  competitive  as many other  suppliers  are  actively  disposing  of excess  inventory.  The lower
market prices caused us to record higher reserves for remaining excess  inventory.  Lastly,  sales of higher margin
branded products were a lower portion of this year's sales.

         Selling,  General and Administrative  Expenses.  Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased to
$20.6 million,  or 21.3% of net sales,  for the third quarter of fiscal 2003, from $24.3  million,  or 20.9% of net
sales,  for the comparable  prior year quarter.  The decrease in operating expenses was primarily due to successful
cost cutting measures, including reduced compensation, advertising and other discretionary spending reductions.

         Other  Charges.  Other charges of $2.4 million was comprised of a $2.8 million  estimated loss on the sale
of one of our corporate aircraft, $2.2 million related to reserves for contract  disputes/litigations, $0.8 million
related to partial  termination  costs for our Duck Head(R)retail  outlet  business and $0.2 million for investment
banking advisory fees, offset in part by a $3.7 million gain on the sale of the Duck Head(R)trademarks.

         Interest  Expense.  Interest expense  decreased to $3.0 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2003, from
$3.5 million for the  comparable  prior year quarter.  The decrease was primarily due to lower average  outstanding
borrowings.

         Income Taxes.  We currently  have $19.5 million of net deferred tax assets  comprised of temporary  timing
differences of future  deductible  expenses and net operating  losses  available to offset future taxable income in
the United  States.  After  review of the  provisions  of  Statement  of  Financial  Accounting  Standards  No. 109
("Accounting for Income Taxes"),  we have provided a full valuation  allowance against these assets. That valuation
allowance of $19.5  million is included in our third  quarter  income tax  provision as a non-cash  increase to tax
expense.  The use of these  deferred  tax  assets to offset  taxable  profits  in future  years  would  result in a
reduction in our effective tax rate in those future years.

Thirty-nine weeks ended June 28, 2003 compared to the thirty-nine weeks ended June 29, 2002

         Net Sales.  Net sales  decreased  to $308.5  million  for the  thirty-nine  weeks ended June 28, 2003 from
$346.9  million in the comparable  prior year period.  This decrease was primarily due to a decrease in the average
selling prices,  and higher than normal levels of returns and allowances  including  approximately  $5.6 million of
customer allowances due to production delay issues related to Project Synergy.

         Gross Profit.  Gross profit decreased to $52.8 million,  or 17.1% of net sales, for the thirty-nine  weeks
ended June 28,  2003,  from $97.0  million,  or 28.0% of net  sales,  for the  comparable  prior year  period.  The
reduction in the gross margin  percentage  was due to a combination  of factors  including  lower  average  selling
prices and higher than normal  amounts of excess  inventory  sold at discounted  prices.  Additionally,  the market
for excess  inventory has become much more  competitive  as many other  suppliers are actively  disposing of excess
inventory.  The lower market prices caused us to record higher  reserves for remaining  excess  inventory.  Lastly,
sales of higher margin branded products were a lower portion of this year's sales.

         Selling,  General and Administrative  Expenses.  Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased to
$63.2 million,  or 20.4% of net sales, for the thirty-nine  weeks ended June 28, 2003, from $72.7 million, or 21.0%
of net sales,  for the  comparable  prior year  period.  The decrease in operating  expenses  was  primarily due to
successful cost cutting  measures,  including reduced  compensation,  advertising and other  discretionary spending
reductions.

         Other  Charges.  Other  charges  of $6.1  million  was comprised  of a $5.3  million  charge  related to a
separation  agreement with our former chief  executive  officer, $2.8 million  estimated loss on the sale of one of
our corporate  aircraft,  $2.2 million related to reserves for contract disputes/litigations,  $0.8 million related
to partial  termination  costs for our Duck Head(R)retail  outlet business and $0.2 million for investment  banking
advisory fees,  offset in part by a $3.7 million gain on the sale of the Duck Head(R) trademarks and a $1.5 million
reduction to previously  recorded  estimates  for severance,  relocation,  and lease  termination  costs related to
Project Synergy.

         Interest  Expense.  Interest  expense  decreased to $8.7 million for the thirty-nine  weeks ended June 28,
2003,  from $10.7  million for the  comparable  prior year period.  The decrease was primarily due to lower average
outstanding borrowings.

         Income Taxes.  We currently  have $19.5 million of net deferred tax assets  comprised of temporary  timing
differences of future  deductible  expenses and net operating  losses  available to offset future taxable income in
the United  States.  After  review of the  provisions  of  Statement  of  Financial  Accounting  Standards  No. 109
("Accounting for Income Taxes"),  we have provided a full valuation  allowance against these assets. That valuation
allowance of $19.5  million is included in our third  quarter  income tax  provision as a non-cash  increase to tax
expense.  The use of these  deferred  tax  assets to offset  taxable  profits  in future  years  would  result in a
reduction in our effective tax rate in these years.


Liquidity and Capital Resources

On June 6, 2003, we renewed our revolving  credit line (the "Facility").  The Facility  provides for  borrowings of
up to $95.0 million,  subject to certain  borrowing base  limitations.  Borrowings under the Facility bear variable
rates  of  interest  based  on  LIBOR  plus an  applicable  margin  (3.7%  at June 28,  2003)  and are  secured  by
substantially  all of the  Company's  domestic  assets.  The Facility matures in June 2006.  Under the terms of the
Facility,  the Company is only subject to financial covenants when availability is below $20.0 million.  As of June
28, 2003, $42.1 million was available for borrowings under the Facility.

As of June 28, 2003, the Company  violated  certain of the financial covenants  associated with a real estate loan,
held by Bank of America,  and was in technical default under terms of the real estate loan and in technical default
under the terms of the  Facility,  due to the cross default  provision.  Fleet  Capital  has agreed to assume  this
real estate loan and eliminate all financial covenants.  Additionally,  all other lenders in the Facility agreed to
waive the cross default provision  that was triggered by the default on the real estate loan.  The Company is party
to an interest  rate swap agreement  which had the effect of fixing the  interest  rate on $7.0 million of the real
estate loan.  The Company will terminate the interest rate swap agreement  concurrent  with Fleet Capital  assuming
the loan and record a charge in the fourth quarter of  approximately  $1.2 million to terminate  the interest  rate
swap.

Capital  expenditures  totaled  $15.0 million for the  thirty-nine  weeks  ended June 28, 2003 and are  expected to
approximate $16.0 to $17.0 million for the entire fiscal year. The  expenditures  expected for the remainder of the
fiscal year primarily  relate to the  upgrade or  replacement  of various  other  equipment  and  computer  systems
including hardware and software.

During  the thirty-nine  weeks  ended June 28,  2003,  we used $50.3  million of cash in our  operations.  This was
primarily the result of a net loss of $34.9  million  (which  included  non-cash  expenses  of $14.9  million),  an
increase in inventories  of $23.9  million,  a decrease  in accounts  receivable  of $12.4  million,  a decrease in
prepaid expenses and other current assets of $2.7 million,  and a decrease in accounts payable and accrued expenses
of $21.5 million.

In  connection  with the  disposal  of our two  corporate  aircraft,  we expect to use  approximately  $5.0 to $5.5
million of cash to  terminate  the  underlying  leases.  We expect  this to occur  during our  fourth  quarter.  In
connection with the final closure of our Duck Head(R)retail outlet stores,  we expect to use approximately  $1.5 to
$2.0 million of cash  associated  with lease  terminations  and severance.  We expect this to also occur during our
fourth quarter.

In connection with the transition of our Victorinox(R)apparel division to Swiss Army Brands,  Inc., ("Swiss Army"),
Swiss  Army is  currently  disputing  certain  aspects  of the  transition  agreement  and  have  failed  to pay us
approximately  $4.8  million due to us under the  transition  agreement.  On June 3, 2003,  we filed a  declaratory
judgment  action against Swiss Army,  seeking  judicial  interpretation  of the  agreement.  We and Swiss Army have
recently  agreed to mediation in an attempt to quickly resolve the issue.  However,  there can be no assurance that
the $4.8 million will be collected in the fourth quarter or in its entirety.

Our estimate of capital  needs is subject to a number of risks and  uncertainties  that could result in  additional
capital needs that have not been  anticipated.  An important  source of capital is our ability to begin to generate
positive  cash flow from  operations.  This is  dependent  upon our  ability  to  increase  revenues,  to  generate
adequate gross profit from those sales,  to reduce excess  inventories  and to control costs and expenses.  Another
important  source of capital is our ability to borrow under the  Facility.  We have violated  certain  covenants in
our  borrowing  agreements,  and to this point,  we have been able to obtain  waivers from our lenders  allowing us
continued  access to this source of capital.  However,  there can be no  assurances  that we will be able to obtain
waivers from our lenders should a violation  occur in the future.  Although there can be no assurances,  we believe
that our existing  working capital and borrowings  available  under our Facility  provide  sufficient  resources to
support current business activities.


Seasonality

Our  business has been  generally  seasonal, with higher sales and income in the second and third fiscal  quarters.
Also,  some of our products,  such as shorts and corduroy pants,  tend to be seasonal in nature.  If these types of
seasonal  products  represent a greater  percentage of our sales in the future, the seasonality of our sales may be
increased.  This could alter the  differences  in sales and income levels in the second and third  fiscal  quarters
from the first and fourth fiscal quarters.

Item 4.  Controls and Procedures

(a)      Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

                Our Chief Executive  Officer and Chief Financial  Officer have evaluated the  effectiveness  of our

                (including  its  consolidated  subsidiaries)  required  to be  included  in our  reports  filed  or
                submitted under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

(b)      Changes in Internal Controls

                Since the  Evaluation  Date,  there have not been any  changes in our  internal  controls  or other
