                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                         FOR THE THIRTY-NINE WEEKS ENDED
                      NOVEMBER 1, 1997 AND NOVEMBER 1, 1996

                                   (UNAUDITED)

1.   FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

     The consolidated balance sheet as of November 1, 1997 and the consolidated
statements of operations for the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended November
1, 1997 and November 1, 1996, respectively, and the consolidated statements of
cash flows for the thirty-nine weeks ended November 1, 1997 and November 1, 1996
have been prepared by Ithaca Industries, Inc. (the "Company") without audit. In
the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring
accruals) necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position of the
Company at November 1, 1997 and the results of operations for the thirteen and
thirty-nine weeks ended November 1, 1997 and November 1, 1996, respectively, and
the statements of cash flows for the thirty-nine weeks ended November 1, 1997
and November 1, 1996 have been made on a consistent basis.

     The Company adopted "fresh-start reporting" and reflected the effects of
such adoption in the consolidated financial statements as of November 22, 1996,
the date assumed for financial reporting purposes of the Company's emergence
from Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code. The post-confirmation
consolidated financial statements have been separated from the preconfirmation
prior period amounts by a bold line to signify that the post-confirmation
consolidated financial statements are those of a new reporting entity and have
been prepared on a basis not comparable to prior periods.

     Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial
statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles
have been condensed or omitted. It is suggested that these financial statements
be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto
for the year ended February 1, 1997 and February 2, 1996 included in the
Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K as filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission on May 2, 1997.

     The results of operations for the periods presented are not necessarily
indicative of the operating results for the full year.

                     MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
                  FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

                 THIRTEEN WEEKS ENDED NOVEMBER 1, 1997 COMPARED
                   WITH THIRTEEN WEEKS ENDED NOVEMBER 1, 1996

     Net sales decreased from $98.6 million for the thirteen weeks ended
November 1, 1996 to $63.2 million (35.9%) for the thirteen weeks ended November
1, 1997. The sales decline reflected, in part, the reduction in sales of
discontinued products, which were approximately $9.5 million in the thirteen
weeks ended November 1, 1996 compared to $1.2 million in the thirteen weeks
ended November 1, 1997. Sales of continuing products were lower in the current
period reflecting lower sales to the Company's major customers.

   The gross profit margin increased for the third quarter fiscal 1998 to 15.2%
from 13.6% for the comparable period last year. The increase in gross profit
margin is due to selling a lower proportion of discontinued goods this year
which have comparatively lower gross profit margins than continuing products,
offset in part by higher manufacturing costs related to lower production volume
in the current period versus the comparable period last year.

   Selling, general and administrative expenses for the third quarter of fiscal
1998 decreased to $6.7 million from $9.1 million (26.5%) last year.

   Operating profit decreased to $2.9 million for the third quarter of fiscal
1998 from $4.3 million for the comparable period last year due primarily to the
lower sales level in the current year.

   Interest expense for the thirteen weeks ended November 1, 1997 of $1.7
million was 73.0% below the $6.4 million incurred in the third quarter of fiscal
1997. The lower interest expense was due to the retirement of $125 million of
senior subordinated notes pursuant to the Company's Plan of Reorganization dated
August 29, 1996 and lower average bank borrowings, partially offset by higher
interest rates on the Company's bank borrowings.

                THIRTY-NINE WEEKS ENDED NOVEMBER 1, 1997 COMPARED
                  WITH THIRTY-NINE WEEKS ENDED NOVEMBER 1, 1996

   Net sales decreased from $275.1 million for the thirty-nine weeks ended
November 1, 1996 to $182.9 million (33.5%) for the thirty-nine weeks ended
November 1, 1997. The sales decline reflected, in part, the reduction in sales
of discontinued products, which were approximately $39.9 million in the
thirty-nine weeks ended November 1, 1996 compared to $4.7 million in the
thirty-nine weeks ended November 1, 1997. Sales of continuing products were
lower in the current period reflecting lower sales to the Company's major
customers.

   The gross profit margin increased for year-to-date fiscal 1998 to 15.1% from
13.7% for the comparable period last year. The increase in gross profit margin
is due to selling a lower proportion of discontinued

                                     Page 8

<PAGE>

goods this year which have comparatively lower gross profit margins than
continuing products, offset in part by higher manufacturing costs related to
lower production volume in the current period versus the comparable period last
year.

   Selling, general and administrative expenses for the thirty-nine weeks ended
November 1, 1997 decreased to $19.9 million from $25.1 million (20.8%) last
year, excluding the one-time benefit in the prior year from the recovery of
writedowns previously recorded.

   Operating profit decreased to $7.7 million for the year-to-date fiscal 1998
from $15.7 million for the comparable period last year due to the lower sales
level in the current year and the asset writedown recovery of $3.0 million
included in the prior year.

   Interest expense for the thirty-nine weeks ended November 1, 1997 of $5.2
million was 72.9% below the $19.3 million incurred in the first half of fiscal
1997. The lower interest expense was due to the retirement of $125 million of
senior subordinated notes pursuant to the Company's Plan of Reorganization dated
August 29, 1996 and lower average bank borrowings, partially offset by higher
interest rates on the Company's bank borrowings.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

   The Company's credit agreement was amended and restated on December 16, 1996
(the "Credit Agreement". As of that date, the Credit Agreement provided for a
term loan facility ("Term Loan") of $55.0 million and a revolving loan facility
of $77.2 million. The revolving loan facility includes a sub-limit of $25.0
million for the issuance of letters of credit. For thirty-day periods beginning
in December and May of each year, commitments under the revolving loan facility
are reduced to $63.0 million and $68.0 million, respectively, (the "Clean-Down
Periods"). As previously reported, the Credit Agreement was further amended on
August 22, 1997 to modify certain financial covenants to more closely reflect
the Company's current operating levels. As previously reported, the Company has
been unable to achieve the level of sales revenue set forth in the Company's
Business Plan. In addition the amendment provides for an additional clean-down
period during January of each year under which commitments under the revolving
loan facility, excluding letters of credit, are reduced to $20 million. As of
December 5, 1997, the Company had $41.0 million of Term Loans outstanding, $18.0
million of borrowings under its revolving loan facility, and $6.3 million
outstanding letters of credit. The Company at December 5, 1997 had $29.0 million
of additional borrowing capacity under its revolving loan facility.
