                      GFSI HOLDINGS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY
                  NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                  (Unaudited)
                                March 29, 2003

1.       Basis of Presentation
         ---------------------

     The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of GFSI
Holdings, Inc. (the "Company") include the accounts of the Company and the
accounts of its wholly owned subsidiaries, GFSI, Inc., Event 1, Inc. ("Event
1"), Champion Custom Products, Inc. ("CCP") and GFSI Canada Company. All
intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. The unaudited
consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for
interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and
Article 10 of Regulation S-X promulgated by the Securities and Exchange
Commission. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and
footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for annual
financial statement reporting purposes. In the opinion of management, all
adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for
a fair presentation of the financial position, operations and cash flows of
the Company have been included. Operating results for the interim periods are
not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the entire
fiscal year. The consolidated balance sheet information as of June 29, 2002
has been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements at that
date, but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by
generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements.
For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and
footnotes thereto for the year ended June 29, 2002 included in the Company's
Annual Report on Form 10-K.

     The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires
management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts
of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities
at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues
and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from
those estimates.

2.       Commitments and Contingencies
         -----------------------------

     The Company, in the normal course of business, may be threatened with or
named as a defendant in various lawsuits. It is not possible to determine the
ultimate disposition of these matters, however, management is of the opinion
that there are no known claims or known contingent claims that are likely to
have a material adverse effect on the results of operations, financial
condition, or cash flows of the Company.

3.       Reclassifications
         -----------------

     Certain reclassifications have been made to the fiscal 2002 consolidated
financial statements to conform to the fiscal 2003 presentation.


     In April 2002, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued
SFAS No. 145 "Rescission of FASB Statements Nos. 4, 44 and 64, Amendment of
FASB Statement No. 13 and, and Technical Corrections." The new standard
eliminates the requirement to classify gains and losses related to early debt
extinguishments as extraordinary items. SFAS No. 145 is effective for fiscal
years beginning after May 15, 2002. In the third quarter of fiscal 2003, GFSI
elected to early adopt SFAS No. 145 and has accordingly reclassified the 2002
loss on extinguishment of debt, previously presented as an extraordinary item,
net of income taxes, as other income (expense) in accordance with the
provisions of SFAS No. 145. Net income, shareholders' equity or cash flows
were not impacted by the adoptioin of this new standard.

5.       Early Extinguishment of Debt

     On December 31, 2002 the Company's wholly-owned subsidiary, GFSI, Inc.,
completed the private placement of $9.9 million of unregistered 9.625% senior
subordinated notes ("Exchange Notes") in exchange for $24 million aggregate
principal amount at maturity of the Company's 11.375% Senior Discount Notes
(the "Holdings Discount Notes") with an accreted book value of $19.9 million.
The acquisition of the Holdings Discount Notes by GFSI, Inc. is considered an
early extinguishment of debt, and accordingly, the Company recorded a pre-tax
gain on the transaction of approximately $9.6 million, net of related costs,
in the third quarter of fiscal 2003.  In future periods, GFSI Holdings'
financial statements will reflect a net reduction in annual interest expense
of approximately $1.3 million.


     The Exchange Notes are unsecured obligations of GFSI, Inc., mature on
March 1, 2007, pay interest semi- annually on March 1 and September 1, and
were issued under an indenture with substantially identical terms as the
indenture governing the $125 million aggregate principal amount at maturity of
GFSI, Inc. Senior Subordinated Notes issued on February 27, 1997. The Exchange
Notes were guaranteed by each of GFSI, Inc.'s wholly-owned subsidiaries (Event
One, CCP and GFSI Canada Company). The Exchange Notes were issued to an
"accredited investor" and were exempt from registration under Rule 144 of the
Securities Act of 1933. GFSI, Inc. has filed an exchange offer registration
statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission to enable the holder of
the Exchange Notes to exchange them for publicly registered notes having terms
substantially identical to the Exchange Notes.

                ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
                 FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
                 ---------------------------------------------

     The discussions set forth in this Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction
with the financial information included herein and the Company's Annual Report
on Form 10-K for the year ended June 29, 2002. Management's discussion and
analysis of financial condition and results of operations and other sections
of this report contain forward-looking statements relating to future results
of the Company. Such forward-looking statements are identified by use of
forward-looking words such as "anticipates", "believes", "plans", "estimates",
"expects", and "intends" or words or phrases of similar expression. These
forward-looking statements are subject to various assumptions, risks and
uncertainties, including but not limited to, changes in political and economic
conditions, demand for the Company's products, acceptance of new products,
developments affecting the Company's products and to those discussed in the
Company's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Accordingly,
actual results could differ materially from those contemplated by the
forward-looking statements.

Critical accounting policies

     The following discussion and analysis of financial condition, results of
operations, liquidity and capital resources is based upon our consolidated
financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Generally
accepted accounting principles require estimates and judgments that affect the
reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an ongoing basis, we
evaluate our estimates, including those related to bad debts, inventories,
intangible assets, long-lived assets, deferred income taxes, accrued expenses,
restructuring reserves, contingencies and litigation. We base our estimates on
historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe are
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 believe that some of our significant accounting policies involve a
higher degree of judgment or complexity than other accounting policies.
Identified below are the policies deemed critical to our business and the
understanding of our results of operations.

     Revenue recognition. We recognize revenues when goods are shipped, title
has passed, the sales price is fixed and collectibility is reasonably assured.
Returns, discounts and sales allowance estimates are based on projected sales
trends, historical data and other known factors. If actual returns, discounts
and sales allowances are not consistent with the historical data used to
calculate these estimates, net sales could either be understated or
overstated.

     Accounts receivable. Accounts receivable consist of amounts due from
customers and business partners. We maintain an allowance for doubtful
accounts to reflect expected credit losses and provides for bad debts based on
collection history and specific risks identified on a customer-by-customer
basis. A considerable amount of judgment is required to assess the ultimate
realization of accounts receivable and the credit-worthiness of each customer.
Furthermore, these judgments must be continually evaluated and updated. If the
historic data used to evaluate credit risk does not reflect future
collections, or, if the financial condition of our customers were to
deteriorate causing an impairment of their ability to make payments,
additional provisions for bad debts may be required in future periods.
Accounts receivable at March 29, 2003 and June 28, 2002 were net of allowance
for doubtful accounts of $1.0 million and $838,000, respectively.

     Inventories. Inventories are carried at the lower of cost or market
determined under the First-In, First-Out (FIFO) method. We write down obsolete
and unmarketable inventories to their estimated market value based upon, among
other things, assumptions about future demand and market conditions. If actual
market conditions are less favorable than projected, additional inventory
write-downs may be required. We also record changes in valuation allowances
due to changes in our operating strategy, such as the discontinuances of
certain product lines and other merchandising decisions related to changes in
demand. It is possible that further changes in required inventory allowances
may be necessary in the future as a result of market conditions and
competitive pressures.

Comparison of Operating Results for the Quarters Ended March 29, 2003 and
March 29, 2002.

     Net Sales. Net sales for the quarter ended March 29, 2003 were $41.2
million compared to $41.5 million last year. We experienced sales decreases in
the Resort division, the Corporate division and our Event 1 subsidiary, offset
by sales growth from the Licensed Apparel group. The net sales growth in the
Licensed Apparel group was from college bookstore customers in our Champion
licensed products group (CCP) which continued to benefit from consumer
preferences for moderately priced apparel. Net sales for CCP were
approximately $2.9 million greater than last year. College bookstore sales
represented approximately 37% of net sales for the quarter compared to 31%
last year. The Corporate and Resort divisions were affected by reduced
business due to decreased discretionary spending on marketing and employee
incentive programs and declining business and consumer travel. Event 1 sales
for the third quarter of fiscal 2003 were below last year due to the timing of
the NCAA mens championship basketball tournament. The final championship games
were held in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2003, compared to the third quarter
of fiscal 2002.

     Gross Profit. Gross profit for the quarter ended March 29, 2003 was $15.2
million, approximately the same as last year. Gross profit as a percentage of
net sales was comparable for both periods at about 37%.

     Operating Expenses. Operating expenses for the quarter ended March 29,
2003 decreased 5% to $12.6 million from $13.4 million last year. Operating
expenses as a percentage of net sales were 30.6% in the third quarter of
fiscal 2003 compared to 32.2% last year. The decrease in operating expenses
was created by implementation of cost controls.

     Operating Income. Operating income increased 37% to $2.6 million in the
third quarter of fiscal 2003 compared to $1.9 million last year. Operating
income as a percentage of net sales increased to 6.3% in the third quarter of
fiscal 2003 from 4.6% in the third quarter of fiscal 2002. The increase in
operating income as a percentage of sales was the result of the decrease in
operating expenses.

     Interest Expense. Interest expense in the third quarter of fiscal 2003
was $5.8 million, $402,000 less than the comparable period last year. The
decrease in interest expense in third quarter of fiscal 2003 was primarily due
to lower borrowings outstanding at lower interest rates in comparison to last
year.

     Gain on Early Extinguishment of Debt. On December 31, 2002, the Company's
wholly-owned subsidiary, GFSI, Inc., completed the private placement of $9.9
million of unregistered 9.625% senior subordinated notes ("Exchange Notes") in
exchange for $24 million aggregate principal amount at maturity of the
Company's 11.375% Senior Discount Notes ("Holdings Discount Notes") with an
accreted book value of $19.9 million. The acquisition of the Holdings Discount
Notes by GFSI, Inc. is considered an early extinguishment of debt, and
accordingly, the Company recorded a pre-tax gain on the transaction of
approximately $9.6 million, net of related costs, in the third quarter of
fiscal 2003.

     The Exchange Notes are unsecured obligations of GFSI, Inc., mature on
March 1, 2007, pay interest semi- annually on March 1 and September 1, and
were issued under an indenture with substantially identical terms as the
indenture governing the $125 million aggregate principal amount at maturity of
GFSI, Inc. Senior Subordinated Notes issued on February 27, 1997. The Exchange
Notes were guaranteed by each of GFSI, Inc.'s wholly-owned subsidiaries
(Event 1, CCP, and GFSI Canada Company). GFSI, Inc. filed an exchange offer
registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission to enable
the holder of the Exchange Notes to exchange them for publicly registered
notes having terms substantially identical to the Exchange Notes.

     In March 2002, the Company entered into a $65 million revolving bank
credit facility (the "RBCA) and repaid its existing $40 million bank credit
facility ahead of its scheduled expiration. A pre-tax charge of $994,000 was
recorded in the third quarter of fiscal 2002 to write off deferred debt
origination costs related to the previous bank credit facility.

     Net Income (loss). Net income for the third quarter of fiscal 2003 was
$3.9 million compared to a net loss of $3.2 million last year. The early
extinguishment gain on debt compared to a loss last year and the increase in
operating income combined to create the increase in net income.

Comparison of Operating Results for the Nine Months Ended March 29, 2003 and
March 29, 2002.

     Net Sales. Net sales for the nine months ended March 29, 2003 increased
6% to $157.0 million from $147.9 million last year. The increase in net sales
was due to strong growth from the Licensed Apparel group, which was fueled by
a 42% increase in revenue from CCP. The net sales increase from CCP was
partially offset by a 18% decline in Corporate division sales. Net sales for
CCP for the first nine months of fiscal 2003 were $13.7 million greater than
last year while Corporate division sales were $4.1 million less than last
year. Management believes that the Company's customers have shifted their
purchases to lower priced apparel with less expensive decoration, which has
enhanced the sales of CCP's more moderately priced goods. A soft economy and
consequent reductions in corporate spending on marketing and employee
incentive programs have had a detrimental effect on the net sales of the
Corporate division.

     Gross Profit. Gross profit for the nine months ended March 29, 2003
increased 4% to $57.5 million from $55.5 million last year. Gross profit as a
percentage of net sales decreased to 36.6% from 37.6% last year. The decrease
in gross profit as a percentage of net sales was the result of a change in
customer purchasing. College bookstore sales represented 51% of net sales for
the nine month period ended March 29, 2003 compared to 43% last year. College
bookstore sales generally provide a lower gross profit than the Company's
other divisions.

     Operating Expenses. Operating expenses for the nine months ended March
29, 2003 increased 6% to $40.5 million from $38.2 million last year. Higher
sales created the increase in operating expenses. Operating expenses as a
percentage of net sales were 25.8% for the first nine months of fiscal 2003
and fiscal 2002. The favorable impact of cost control measures offset the
higher royalty and distribution channel costs attributable to college
bookstore sales which allowed operating expenses as a percentage of net sales
to remain the same.

     Operating Income. Operating income decreased 2% to $17.0 million in
fiscal 2003 from $17.3 million in fiscal 2002. Operating income as a
percentage of net sales decreased to 10.9% in fiscal 2003 from 11.7% in fiscal
2002. The decrease in operating income as a percentage of sales was the result
of a lower gross profit percentage on higher net sales.

     Interest Expense. Interest expense in the first nine months of fiscal
2003 was $17.9 million, $666,000 less than the comparable period last year.
The decrease in interest expense was due to lower borrowings at lower interest
rates in comparison to last year.

     Gain on Early Extinguishment of Debt. On December 31, 2002, the Company's
wholly-owned subsidiary, GFSI, Inc., completed the private placement of $9.9
million of unregistered 9.625% senior subordinated notes ("Exchange Notes") in
exchange for $24 million aggregate principal amount at maturity of the
Company's 11.375% Senior Discount Notes (the "Holdings Discount Notes") with
an accreted book value of $19.9 million. The acquisition of the Holdings
Discount Notes by GFSI, Inc. is considered an early extinguishment of debt,
and accordingly, the Company recorded a pre-tax gain on the transaction of
approximately $9.6 million, net of related costs.

     In March 2002, the Company entered into a $65 million RBCA and repaid its
existing $40 million bank credit facility ahead of its scheduled expiration. A
pre-tax charge of $994,000 was recorded in the third quarter of fiscal 2002 to
write off deferred debt origination costs related to the previous bank credit
facility.

     Net Income (loss). Net income for the first nine months of fiscal 2003
was $5.3 million, compared to a net loss of $1.4 million last year. The early
extinguishment gain on debt compared to a loss last year and offset the
decrease in operating income and combined to create the $6.7 million increase
in net income over last year.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

     Cash provided by operating activities in the first nine months of fiscal
2003 was $9.5 million compared to cash used by operating activities of $2.6
million last year. Fiscal 2002 operating cash flows were used to fund the
increase in accounts receivable and inventory related to the addition of the
CCP college bookstore business.

     Cash used in investing activities in the first nine months of fiscal 2003
was $2.9 million compared to $3.6 million last year. The cash used in both
periods was related to the acquisition of property, plant and equipment.

     Cash used in financing activities in the first nine months of fiscal 2003
was $5.6 million compared to cash provided by financing activities of $2.0
million in the comparable period of fiscal 2002. Payments of bank debt was the
primary use of cash in fiscal 2003. In fiscal 2002, the Company used
borrowings under its RCBA to repay long-term debt.

     Under the Company's RBCA up to $65 million of revolving credit
availability is provided, of which $24.8 million was borrowed and outstanding
and approximately $6.3 million was utilized for outstanding commercial and
stand-by letters of credit as of March 29, 2003. At March 29, 2003, $25.4
million was available for future borrowings under the RBCA. The Company
believes that cash flows from operating activities and borrowings under the
RBCA will be adequate to meet the Company's short-term and future liquidity
requirements prior to the maturity of the RBCA in fiscal 2005, although no
assurance can be given in this regard.

     The Company's wholly-owned subsidiary, GFSI, Inc., anticipates paying
dividends to the Company to enable the Company to pay corporate income taxes,
interest on the Holdings Discount Notes, fees payable under consulting and
non-competition agreements, preferred stock dividends and certain other
ordinary course expenses incurred on behalf of GFSI, Inc. The Company is
dependent upon the cash flows of GFSI, Inc. to provide funds to service the
Holdings Discount Notes. The Holdings Discount Notes do not have an annual
cash flow requirement until fiscal 2005 as they accrue interest at 11.375% per
annum, compounded semi-annually to an aggregate principal amount of $84.5
million at September 15, 2004. Thereafter, the Holdings Discount Notes will
accrue interest at the rate of 11.375% per annum, payable semi-annually, in
cash on March 15 and September 15 of each year, commencing on March 15, 2005.
Additionally, the Company's cumulative non-cash preferred stock ("Holdings
Preferred Stock") dividends total approximately $400,000 annually. Holdings
Preferred Stock may be redeemed at stated value (approximately $3.4 million)
plus accrued dividends with mandatory redemption in fiscal 2009.

Seasonality and Inflation

     The Company experiences seasonal fluctuations in its sales and
profitability, with generally higher sales and gross profit in the first and
second quarters of its fiscal year. The seasonality of sales and profitability
is primarily due to higher college bookstore sales during the first two fiscal
quarters. Sales at the Company's Resort and Corporate divisions typically show
little seasonal variations.

     The impact of inflation on the Company's operations has not been
significant to date. However, there can be no assurance that a high rate of
inflation in the future would not have an adverse effect on the Company's
operating results.

      ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
      ------------------------------------------------------------------

Derivative and Market Risk Disclosure

     The Company's market risk exposure is primarily due to possible
fluctuations in interest rates. The fixed rate portion of the Company's
long-term debt does not bear significant interest rate risk. An immediate 10%
change in interest rates would not have a material effect on the Company's
results of operations over the next fiscal year, although there can be no
assurances that interest rates will not significantly change.


                        ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
                        -------------------------------

     Within the 90 days prior to the date of filing this Quarterly Report on
Form 10-Q, an evaluation was performed under the supervision and with the
participation of the Company's management, including the Chief Executive
Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of he design and
operation of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in
Exchange Act Rules 13a-14(c) and 15d-14(c)). Based on that evaluation, the
Company's management, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief
Financial Officer, concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and
procedures are effective in timely alerting them to material information
relating to the Company (including its consolidated subsidiaries) required to
be included in the Company's periodic SEC filings. Subsequent to the date of
that evaluation, there have been no significant changes in the Company's
internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect internal
controls, nor were any corrective actions required with regard to significant
deficiencies and material weaknesses.
