Note A.  Basis of presentation

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 six month period ended June 30, 1999
are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year
ended December 31, 1999.

The balance sheet at December 31, 1998 has been derived from the audited

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

     In 1998, the Company's sole shareholder, Globe Holdings, Inc. ("Globe
Holdings") entered into a recapitalization transaction obtaining additional debt
and equity whereby Code, Hennessy & Simmons III, L.P. obtained a majority
interest in Globe Holdings and certain continuing shareholders retained a
minority interest. Assets and liabilities of the Company were carried at
historical cost bases and distributions to certain Company shareholders were
recorded as a distribution from retained earnings. The recapitalization
transaction was financed with $50 million of equity and $295 million of debt. As
a result of the transaction, the aggregate indebtedness for borrowed money and
interest expense increased and shareholders' equity decreased.


Results of Operations

     Net sales of the Company were $44.4 million for the second quarter of 1999
and $88.0 million for the first six months of 1999, representing decreases of
3.7% and 4.9%, respectively, from the corresponding periods of 1998. The
decrease is attributable to decreases in sales volumes of latex fiber and heavy
denier spandex from the corresponding periods of 1998.

     Gross margin for the second quarter was $14.4 million and $28.0 million for
the first six months of 1999, representing decreases of 13.3% and 14.9%,
respectively, from the corresponding periods of 1998. The Company's gross margin
as a percentage of net sales was 32.4% for the second quarter and 31.9% for the
first six months of 1999, compared to 36.0% and 35.6%, respectively, for the
corresponding periods in 1998. The decrease in gross margin was primarily due to
foreign pricing pressure on fine denier spandex and a decrease in latex fiber
sales volume.

     Selling, general and administrative expenses were $5.6 million for the
second quarter of 1999, and $11.7 million for the first six months of 1999,
representing decreases of 3.4% and 2.3%, respectively, from the corresponding
periods of 1998. As a percentage of net sales, selling, general and
administrative expenses were 12.5% for the second quarter and 13.3% for the
first six months of 1999, compared to 12.5% and 13.0%, respectively, for the
corresponding periods in 1998.

     Research and development expenses were $1.2 million for the second quarter
of 1999, and $2.3 million for the first six months of 1999 compared to $1.0
million and $2.1 million, respectively, for the corresponding periods in 1998.
Research and development expenses for the Company as a percentage of net sales
were 2.7% for the second quarter and for the first six months of 1999, an
increase from 2.3% for the corresponding periods in 1998. The slight increase is
attributed to the continuing development of a new heavy denier spandex fiber.

     Net interest expense was $7.0 million for the second quarter and $13.9
million for the first six months of 1999, compared to $.9 million and $1.8
million, respectively, for the corresponding periods in 1998. The increase in
interest expense was directly attributable to the recapitalization of the
Company.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

     Cash used by operating activities was $4.2 million for the six months ended
June 20, 1999 as compared to cash provided by operating activities of $14.0
million for the comparable prior year period. The reduction in cash provided by
operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 1999 was due to increases
in interest expense, accounts receivable, prepaid expenses, prepaid taxes, and a
decrease in accrued expenses. This reduction was partially offset by a decrease
in inventory balances, and increases in accounts payable, accretion on
discounted notes, and depreciation and amortization.

     The average days sales outstanding for accounts receivable was
approximately 71 days for the six months ended June 30, 1999 compared to 63 days
for the comparable prior year period. The increase in days sales outstanding is
due to increases in export sales which have longer terms than domestic sales.
Export sales represented 34.5% and 27.5% of total sales for the six months ended
June 30, 1999 and 1998, respectively. Inventory balances decreased $1.8 million
from December 31, 1998, primarily due to an average increase of 16.4% in
quarterly net sales for the first and second quarters of 1999, compared to the
fourth quarter of 1998. The note payable increased $8.2 million primarily due to
interest payments due on the senior subordinated notes and working capital
needs.

     Capital expenditures, including capital leases, were $4.9 million for the
six months ended June 30, 1999 compared to $17.1 million the comparable prior
year period. Capital expenditures for the six months ended June 30, 1998
consisted primarily of expenditures for the expansion of the Tuscaloosa
facility.

     As part of the recapitalization transaction, the Company entered into a
Senior Credit Facility consisting of a $115.0 million term loan facility, which
was fully drawn upon the consummation of the transaction and a $50.0 million
revolving loan facility. The revolving loan facility is available for general
corporate and working capital purposes.

Impact of the Year 2000 Issue

     The year 2000 issue is the result of computer programs being written using
two digits rather than four to define the applicable year. Any of the Company's
computer programs that have date-sensitive software may recognize a date using
"00" as the year 1900 rather than the year 2000.

     If the Company, its significant customers or suppliers fail to make
necessary modifications and conversions on a timely basis, the year 2000 issue
could have a material adverse effect on Company operations. However, the impact
cannot be quantified at this time. The Company believes that its competitors
face similar risks.

     The Company has established a corporate-wide project team to identify non-
compliant software and complete the corrections required for the year 2000
issue. The Company has completed its repairs for major manufacturing systems in
all locations. The Company also completed its repair of its major financial
systems. The Company's current target is to resolve compliance issues in its
distribution systems and other ancillary systems by July 31, 1999. The Company
also has made inquiry of its major customers and suppliers to assess their
compliance. There can be no assurance that there will not be a material adverse
effect on the Company if third party governmental or business entities do not
convert or replace their systems in a timely manner and in a way that is
compatible with the Company's systems.

     Costs related to the year 2000 issue are funded through operating cash
flows. Through June 30, 1999, the Company expended approximately $300,000 in
systems development and remediation efforts, including the cost of new software
and modifying the applicable code of existing software. The Company

                                      -7-
<PAGE>

estimates remaining costs to be immaterial. The Company presently believes that
the total cost of achieving year 2000 compliant systems will not be material to
the Company's financial condition, liquidity or results of operations.

     Time and cost estimates are based on currently available information.
Developments that could affect estimates include, but are not limited to, the
availability and cost of trained personnel, the ability to locate and correct
all relevant computer code and systems and remediation success of the Company's
customers and suppliers.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk.

     The Company's market risk disclosure set forth in the Company's Annual
Report on Form 10-K has not changed significantly through the six months ended
June 30, 1999.


                           Part II Other Information

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

     In April 1997 two domestic purchasers of extruded latex thread filed a
complaint against a number of foreign manufacturers and distributors of such
thread, including an Indonesian limited liability company in which Globe
Holdings then owned a 40% interest (the "Joint Venture"). The complaint alleged
an international conspiracy to restrain trade in, and fix prices of, the thread
in the U.S. The Company was not named as a defendant in the case. The Joint
Venture alleged in its motion to dismiss that not all parties to the conspiracy
had been joined. There can be no assurance that the Company will not be named in
the future. The Company is entitled to indemnification from, among other items,
any liabilities arising out of any criminal or civil antitrust claims or
investigations resulting from the above-described proceedings to the

                                      -8-
<PAGE>

extent related to the Company's activities prior to the recapitalization
transaction in 1998. This indemnity expires on December 31, 2001.

     The U.S. Department of Commerce has imposed anti-dumping duties on
Indonesian extruded latex producers. Additional duties of 28.29% have been
levied on extruded latex thread imported from Indonesia from May 1999 going
forward.

     From time to time, the Company has been and is involved in various legal
proceedings, all of which management believes are routine in nature and
generally incidental to the conduct of its business. The ultimate legal and
financial liability of the Company with respect to such proceedings cannot be
estimated with certainty, but the Company believes, based on its examination of
such matters, that none of such proceedings, if determined adversely to the
Company, would have a material adverse effect on the Company's results of
operations, financial condition and its ability to meet its obligations under
the Company's existing debt.
