                            GFSI, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY
                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                   (Unaudited)
                                  April 2, 1999

1.   Basis of Presentation

     The accompanying  unaudited consolidated financial statements of GFSI, Inc.
(the  "Company")  include the  accounts  of the Company and the  accounts of its
wholly owned  subsidiary,  Event 1, Inc. ("Event 1"). All intercompany  balances
and transactions  have been  eliminated.  The unaudited  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 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 and operations 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.  For
further information, refer to the financial statements and footnotes thereto for
the year ended July 3, 1998  included  in the  Company's  Annual  Report on Form
10-K.

     The  preparation  of financial  statements  in  conformity  with  generally
accepted  accounting  principles  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.

     Various state and local taxing  authorities  have  examined,  or are in the
process of examining  the  Company's  sales and use tax returns.  The Company is
currently  reviewing the status and the results of such examinations,  including
the methods used by certain state taxing  authorities in  calculating  the sales
tax assessments and believes that it has accrued an amount adequate to cover the
assessments.


3.   New Accounting Standards

     Statement of Financial  Accounting  Standards ("SFAS") No. 133, "Accounting
for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities" was issued in June 1998. This
statement   establishes   accounting  and  reporting  standards  for  derivative
instruments and for hedging  activities.  It requires an entity to recognize all
derivatives  as either  assets or  liabilities  in the  statement  of  financial
position  and  measure  those  instruments  at fair  value.  This  statement  is
effective for all quarters of fiscal years  beginning  after June 15, 1999.  The
Company is in the process of  determining  what impact the  adoption of SFAS No.
133 will have on its financial position and results of operations.

     In March 1998,  the  American  Institute of  Certified  Public  Accountants
("AICPA") issued Statement of Position ("SOP") 98-1 "Accounting for the Costs of
Computer  Software  Developed or Obtained for Internal  Use." SOP 98-1  provides
guidance  on  accounting  for the costs of  internal  use  computer  software at
various stages of development.  This SOP is effective for fiscal years beginning
after December 15, 1998. The Company does not expect the  implementation of this
SOP to have a material impact on the Company's financial statements.

                 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  July 3,  1998.  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.


         The  following  sets forth the amount and  percentage  of net sales for
each of the periods indicated (dollars in thousands).  Certain reclassifications
have been made to the fiscal year 1998 data to conform to the 1999 presentation:

     EBITDA  represents  operating income plus  depreciation  and  amortization.
While EBITDA should not be construed as a substitute  for operating  income or a
better  indicator of liquidity than cash flow from operating  activities,  which
are determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting  principles,  it
is included herein to provide additional information with respect to the ability
of the Company to meet its future debt service,  capital expenditure and working
capital requirements.  In addition,  the Company believes that certain investors
find  EBITDA to be a useful  tool for  measuring  the  ability of the Company to
service its debt.  EBITDA is not necessarily a measure of the Company's  ability
to fund its cash needs.  See the  Consolidated  Statements  of Cash Flows of the
Company herein for further information.


Comparison  of Operating  Results for the Quarters and Nine Month  Periods Ended
April 2, 1999 and April 3, 1998.

     Net Sales. Net sales for the third quarter of fiscal 1999, the three months
ended April 2, 1999,  decreased  7.8% to $44.8 million from $48.6 million in the
third quarter of fiscal 1998. Net sales for the first nine months of fiscal 1999
decreased  3.2%to $160.2 million from $165.5 million in the first nine months of
fiscal 1998. The decrease in net sales primarily reflects decreases in net sales
for the nine  months  ended  April 2, 1999 at the  Company's  Resort and College
Bookstore  divisions of 10.3% and 6.2%,  respectively.  Management  believes the
decreases  in net  sales at the  Resort  and  College  Bookstore  divisions  are
primarily attributable to unseasonably warm fall and winter temperatures in most
of the  country.  These  decreases  in net  sales  were  partially  offset by an
increase in net sales in the Company's  Event 1 subsidiary of 19.8% for the nine
months ended April 3, 1999.

     Gross Profit.  Gross profit for the third quarter of fiscal 1999  decreased
9.4% to $20.0  million from $22.1  million in the third  quarter of fiscal 1998.
Gross  profit for the first nine months of fiscal 1999  decreased  2.8% to $70.7
million from $72.7 million in the first nine months of fiscal 1998. The decrease
in gross profit is primarily a result of the sales  decreases  noted above.  For
the third  quarter of fiscal 1999,  gross  profit as a  percentage  of net sales
decreased to 44.7%  compared to 45.6% in the third  quarter of fiscal 1998.  For
the first nine months of fiscal 1999,  gross profit as a percentage of net sales
increased to 44.1% compared to 44.0% in the first nine months of fiscal 1998.

     Operating Expenses. Operating expenses for the third quarter of fiscal 1999
increased  2.8% to $14.7  million  from $14.3  million  in the third  quarter of
fiscal 1998.  For the first nine months,  operating  expenses  increased 9.4% to
$44.3  million  from  $40.5  million in the first  nine  months of fiscal  1998.
Increases in operating expenses are primarily attributable to increased staffing
levels and licensing and site fees associated  with Event 1. Operating  expenses
as a  percentage  of net sales  increased  to 32.9% from 29.4% in the prior year
third quarter. For the first nine months,  operating expenses as a percentage of
net sales increased to 27.7% from 24.5% in the prior year period.

     EBITDA. EBITDA for the third quarter of fiscal 1999 decreased 28.3% to $6.1
million  from $8.5 million in the third  quarter of fiscal  1998.  For the first
nine months,  EBITDA  decreased 16.7% to $28.7 million from $34.4 million in the
first nine months of fiscal  1998.  The decrease for both periods is primarily a
result of the  decrease  in net sales and the  increase  in  operating  expenses
described  above.  EBITDA as a percentage  of net sales  decreased to 13.6% from
17.6% in the third  quarter of fiscal  1998.  For the nine  months,  EBITDA as a
percentage  of sales  decreased  to 17.9% from 20.8% in the first nine months of
fiscal 1998.

     Operating  Income.  Operating  income for the third  quarter of fiscal 1999
decreased 31.8% to $5.3 million from $7.8 million in the third quarter of fiscal
1998.  For the first nine  months,  operating  income  decreased  18.2% to $26.4
million from $32.3 million in the first nine months of fiscal 1998. The decrease
is  attributable  to the  decrease in net sales and the  increase  in  operating
expenses  described  above.  Operating  income  as a  percentage  of  net  sales
decreased  for the third  quarter  of fiscal  1999 to 11.9% from 16.1% in fiscal
1998,  and to 16.5% for the nine month  period of fiscal  1999 from 19.5% in the
first nine months of fiscal 1998.

     Other Income (Expense).  Other expense for the third quarter of fiscal 1999
decreased to $4.4 million from $4.6 million in the third quarter of fiscal 1998.
For the first  nine  months of fiscal  1999  other  expense  decreased  to $13.9
million  from $14.6  million in the first nine months of fiscal  year 1998.  The
decrease  for the periods is primarily a result of  decreased  interest  expense
associated with borrowings under the Company's $115 million Credit Agreement due
to lower interest rates and declining balances on the Company's long term-debt.

     Income  Taxes.  The  effective  income tax rates for the nine month periods
ended April 2, 1999 and April 3, 1998 were 40.4% and 41.2%, respectively.

     Net Income. Net income for the third quarter of fiscal 1999 was $.5 million
compared to $1.9 million in the third quarter of fiscal 1998. For the first nine
months of fiscal 1999, net income was $7.4 million  compared to $10.4 million in
the first nine months of fiscal 1998.



Liquidity and Capital Resources

     Cash provided by operating  activities  for the first nine months of fiscal
1999 was $18.9  million  compared  to $7.4  million in the first nine  months of
fiscal 1998. The change in cash provided by operating activities between the two
periods primarily resulted from a larger decline in the inventory balance in the
first nine  months of fiscal 1999 as compared to the first nine months of fiscal
1998.

     Cash used by investing  activities  in the first nine months of fiscal 1999
was $1.2  compared to $1.6  million in the first nine  months of 1998.  The cash
used in both  periods  was  related  to  acquisitions  of  property,  plant  and
equipment.

     Cash used in financing  activities for the first nine months of fiscal 1999
was $9.1  million  compared  to $5.7  million in the first nine months of fiscal
1998. The increase in cash used in financing activities in the first nine months
of  fiscal  1999  is  primarily  attributable  to  increased  repayments  of the
revolving credit agreement balances over the prior period.

     The  Company  believes  that  cash  flow  from  operating   activities  and
borrowings  under the Credit  Agreement  will be adequate to meet the  Company's
short-term  and long-term  liquidity  requirements  prior to the maturity of its
credit  facilities  in 2007,  although no assurance can be given in this regard.
Under the Credit  Agreement,  the  Revolver  provides  $50 million of  revolving
credit  availability  (of  which  none was  outstanding  as of April 2, 1999 and
approximately $15.4 million was utilized for outstanding commercial and stand-by
letters of credit).

     GFSI Holdings, Inc. ("Holdings"),  the sole stock holder of the Company, is
dependent  upon the cash flows of the  Company to provide  funds to pay  certain
ordinary  course  expenses  incurred on behalf of the Company and to service the
indebtedness  represented  by the  $50.0  million  of  11.375%  Series  B Senior
Discount Notes due 2009 (the "Discount Notes").  The Discount Notes will accrete
at a rate of 11.375%,  compounded semi-annually to an aggregate principal amount
of $108.5  million at September 15, 2004.  Thereafter,  the 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.
Holdings  will be  dependent  on the  Company  to provide  funds to service  the
indebtedness.  Additionally,  the remaining  cumulative non-cash preferred stock
issued by Holdings  ("Holdings  Preferred Stock") will accrue dividends totaling
approximately  $427,000  annually.  Holdings  Preferred Stock may be redeemed at
stated value  (approximately $3.6 million) plus accrued dividends with mandatory
redemption in 2009.

Derivative and Market Risk Disclosure

     The   Company's   market  risk   exposure  is  primarily  due  to  possible
fluctuations in interest rates.  Derivative financial instruments,  including an
interest rate swap and an interest rate cap agreement are used by the Company to
manage its exposure on variable rate debt  obligations.  The Company enters into
such agreements for hedging  purposes and not with a view toward  speculating in
the underlying  instruments.  The Company uses a balanced mix of debt maturities
along with both  fixed rate and  variable  rate debt to manage its  exposure  to
interest rate changes.  The fixed rate portion of the Company's  long-term  debt
does not bear  significant  interest rate risk.  The variable rate debt would be
affected by interest  rate changes to the extent the debt is not matched with an
interest  rate  swap  or cap  agreement  or to the  extent,  in the  case of the
revolving  credit  agreement,  that  balances are  outstanding.  An immediate 10
percent  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.


Year 2000 Compliance

     The Company has a program to identify,  evaluate and  implement  changes to
its computer systems as necessary to address the Year 2000 issue. As part of the
program, the Company is currently upgrading its existing management  information
system ("MIS") with a new system  designed to improve the overall  efficiency of
the  Company's  operations  and to enable  management  to more closely track the
financial  performance  of each of its  sales  and  operating  areas.  Based  on
management's best estimates,  the new MIS will be operational during fiscal year
ending July 2, 1999. The costs  associated with the new MIS  implementation  are
not  expected to be material to the Company and are being  expensed as incurred.
Any difficulty with the installation,  initial operation or untimely  resolution
of such issues associated with the new MIS may present an uncertainty that would
be reasonably likely to affect the Company's inventory purchasing control, sales
and customer  service which could  materially and adversely impact the Company's
future financial results, or cause its reported financial  information not to be
necessarily   indicative  of  future  operating   results  or  future  financial
condition.  The Company will  continue to consider the  likelihood of a material
business  interruption due to the Year 2000 issue, and, if necessary,  implement
appropriate contingency plans.

     Also as part of the Company's Year 2000 program,  the Company has initiated
communications  with suppliers with which it interacts to determine  their plans
for addressing Year 2000 concerns.  Based upon management's best estimates,  all
Year 2000 issues will be resolved in 1999. However,  the Company cannot make any
assurances that its computer  systems,  or the computer systems of its suppliers
will be Year 2000 ready on schedule, or that management's cost estimates will be
achieved.


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 volume at the College  Bookstore  division during the
first two  fiscal  quarters.  This  pattern  of sales  affects  working  capital
requirements and liquidity,  as the Company generally must finance higher levels
of inventory  during these periods prior to fully  receiving  payment from these
customers. Sales and profitability at the Company's Resort, Corporate and Sports
Specialty divisions typically show no significant  seasonal  variations.  As the
Company  continues to expand into other  markets in its Resorts,  Corporate  and
Sports Specialty divisions, seasonal fluctuations in sales and profitability are
expected  to  decline.  Cash  requirements  of  Event  1 are  anticipated  to be
seasonal,  with  increasing  sales and  profitability  in the  third and  fourth
quarters of fiscal years.

     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.
