Through July 2, 1994 the Company accounted for the cotton, polyester,
labor and overhead components of raw materials, work in process and finished
goods inventories at the lower of cost, determined under the LIFO method of
accounting, or market. Purchased cloth and yarn and certain supplies
inventories were accounted for at the lower of cost, determined under the FIFO
method of accounting, or market. In the first quarter of Fiscal 1995, the
Company changed to the LIFO method of accounting for purchased cloth and yarn.
This change will result in better matching of revenues and expenses and will
conform substantially all manufacturing inventories to the LIFO method. The
cumulative effect of this change is not determinable. The effect of this change
on first quarter 1995 was to decrease net income for the quarter by
approximately $123,000 ($.02 per share). In connection with this change, the
Company conformed the manner of applying the LIFO method for its cotton and
polyester inventories to the dollar value method. Management believes the
effect of the change to the dollar value method was not significant.

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

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

For the first fiscal quarter ended September 30, 1995, sales were flat as
compared to sales for the first quarter last year. First quarter fiscal 1996
sales of $68,595,617 were only .1% ahead of sales of $68,555,747 for the first
fiscal quarter last year. Slow markets in the Company's yarn and piece-dyed
apparel areas resulted in a sales decline for these products while sales of
denim and home-furnishing products remained steady or increased slightly.
Although overall units sold during the quarter decreased 2.6%, this decrease
was offset by an increase of 2.8% in the product mix average sales value per
unit.

Cost of goods sold decreased to 90.4% of sales for first quarter fiscal 1996 as
compared to 91.2% of sales in first quarter fiscal 1995. Increases in raw
material prices and continued low capacity utilization were countered by more
favorable differences between actual and standard cost of sales during the 
quarter.

Decreased cost of goods sold resulted in gross profit of $6,594,523 or 9.6% of
sales for 1996 as compared to gross profit of $6,007,344 or 8.8% of sales for
1995.

Selling, general and administrative expenses were $5,083,171 or 7.4% of sales
in first quarter fiscal 1996 and $4,664,831 or 6.8% of sales in first quarter 
fiscal 1995. The increase of $418,340 is primarily the result of increased 
costs incurred in designing and advertising the Company's products.

Other income increased from $116,902 in first quarter fiscal 1995 to $199,612
in 1996.

Interest expense increased $51,948 from $722,801 in first quarter fiscal 1995 
to $774,749 in first quarter fiscal 1996. This 7.2% increase is the result of 
slightly higher interest rates associated with the Company's borrowings under 
its revolving credit agreement.

Income tax expense for first quarter fiscal year 1996 was 38.0% of taxable
income compared to 38.6% of first quarter fiscal 1995 taxable income. This
decrease can be attributed primarily to a lower tax rate on the graduated
federal tax schedule. These percentages approximate the statutory income tax
rate for the tax jurisdictions in which the Company operates.

Net income for first quarter fiscal 1996 increased 28.3% to $580,454 or $0.09
per share as compared to $452,281 or $0.07 per share for first quarter fiscal
1995.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Company continues to maintain a strong financial position. At September 30,
1995, working capital was $70,012,309 as compared to $69,930,136 at October 1,
1994. The ratio of current assets to current liabilities was 4.4:1 at September
30, 1995 and 4.1:1 at October 1, 1994.

Cash provided by operating activities was the principal source of funds for
first quarter fiscal 1996. Cash provided by operating activities amounted to
$5,245,178 for the first fiscal quarter ended September 30, 1995.

The Company's primary use of funds during first quarter fiscal year 1996 was
$3,652,735 in purchases of property, plant and equipment, offset by a $2,216,574
decrease in unexpended construction funds, and $3,604,984 principal payments on
revolving lines of credit, long-term debt and capital lease obligations.

During the latter part of fiscal year 1995, the Company placed orders for
additional equipment to increase denim production by approximately twenty
percent by the second quarter of fiscal year 1996. To finance the expansion of
the denim production, the Company on April 5, 1995 entered into an agreement
with the Development Authority of Pike County, Georgia to issue $3,700,000 in
Tax-Exempt Adjustable Mode Industrial Development Revenue Bonds. Interest on
these bonds is paid quarterly.  The maturity date of the bond issue is April
2005. At September 30, 1995, the Company had $1,351,285 in unexpended 
construction funds related to this bond issue.

During the second quarter of fiscal year 1995, the Company revised and expanded
its revolving credit agreement which provided for unsecured borrowings of up to
$24,000,000. At September 30, 1995, $5,500,000 was available under this 
agreement.

The Company had capital expenditure commitments at September 30, 1995 for $6.0
million, primarily for machinery and equipment. Management believes that cash
provided by operating activities and the revolving credit agreement will be
sufficient to finance capital requirements and operating needs of the Company
for fiscal 1996.

INVENTORIES

Inventories at September 30, 1995 and October 1, 1994 were $40,519,427 and
42,715,884 respectively. Total inventory turns on an average annualized rate
were 6.1 times for first fiscal quarter 1996 and 5.6 times for first fiscal
quarter  1995.

Through July 2, 1994 the Company accounted for the cotton, polyester, labor and
overhead components of raw materials, work in process and finished goods
inventories at the lower of cost, determined under the LIFO method of
accounting, or market. Purchased cloth and yarn and certain supplies
inventories were accounted for at the lower of cost, determined under the FIFO
method of accounting, or market. Effective with the first day of fiscal year
1995, the Company changed to the LIFO method of accounting for purchased cloth
and yarn. This change will result in better matching of revenues and expenses
and will conform substantially all manufacturing inventories to the LIFO
method. The cumulative effect of this change is not determinable. The effect of
this change on first fiscal quarter 1995 was to decrease net income by
approximately $123,000 ($.02 per share). In connection with this change, the
Company conformed the manner of applying



                                Page 8 of 11

<PAGE>   9

the LIFO method for its cotton and polyester inventories to the dollar value
method. Management believes the effect of the change to the dollar value method
was not significant.

RAW MATERIALS

The Company's primary raw material is cotton. As a commodity, cotton is traded
on established markets and periodically experiences price fluctuations. The
Company monitors the cotton market and buys its cotton from brokers. The
Company has not had and does not anticipate any material difficulty in
obtaining cotton.

In order to assure a continuous supply of cotton, the Company enters into
cotton purchase contracts for several months in advance of delivery which
either provide for (1) fixed quantities to be purchased at a pre-determined
price, or (2) fixed quantities to be purchased at a price to be determined (at
a later date). When the Company sells its product to its customers, the cost of
cotton under existing cotton purchase contracts is taken into account in
calculating the price for the Company's product. The Company generally attempts
to match product sales contracts with fixed price cotton purchase contracts and
uses market price cotton contracts to anticipate future needs and subsequent
product sales contracts. Accordingly, fluctuations in the market value of
cotton do not generally affect the pricing or profitability of existing sales
contracts, but would affect subsequent sales contracts. To the extent prices
are sometimes fixed in advance of shipment, the Company may benefit from its
cotton purchase contracts, to the extent prices thereafter rise, or incur
increased cost, to the extent prices thereafter fall.

GATT

In December 1993, 117 countries reached an agreement under the General
Agreement on Tariffs and Trade that would cover new areas of trade, further cut
tariffs and strengthen multilateral free-trade rules by creating a World Trade
Organization (WTO) as its successor. This agreement was ratified by the United
States Congress and went into effect on July 1, 1995. As part of this new
agreement, the Multifiber Arrangement (MFA) under which textile and apparel
trade had been controlled, will be phased out along with its import quotas over
a 10-year period. Tariffs on textiles will be cut by an average of 11.6% over
10 years. A weighted average tariff for products sold by Thomaston Mills, if
imported, would be cut by 8.8%. Under the agreement, quotas on the least
sensitive import products will be phased out over the first five years and
quotas on the most sensitive import products will not be affected until the
latter part of the ten-year period.

The WTO agreement contains some provisions which may have a favorable impact on
the textile industry. An assembly rule of origin amendment makes it illegal for
a non-WTO member country to assemble garments from pieces cut in a member
country and then export the garments as originating in the country where they
were cut. Additionally, the agreement preserves the authority of the President
of the United States to control imports from non-WTO countries such as Taiwan
or China.

Although the WTO agreement may reduce the cost of certain imported textiles,
the Company believes that upgraded technology resulting in increased
productivity and lower costs will enable it to compete in a global market.
