SUPERIOR UNIFORM GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARYNOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS(Unaudited)

NOTE 1  Summary of Significant Interim Accounting Policies:

a)   Basis of presentation

The condensed consolidated interim financial statements include the accounts of Superior Uniform Group, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiary, formed by contribution of assets in April 2001. Intercompany items have been
eliminated in consolidation. The accompanying unaudited interim financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included
in the financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. These condensed financial statements should be
read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto included in the Companys Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2001, and filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The interim financial
information contained herein is not cert ified or audited; it reflects all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement of the operating results for the periods
presented, stated on a basis consistent with that of the audited financial statements. The unaudited financial information included in this report has been reviewed by Deloitte & Touche LLP, independent certified public accountants and their
review report thereon accompanies this filing; such review was made in accordance with established professional standards and procedures for such a review. The results of operations for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of results to
be expected for the full year.

b)   Recognition of costs and expenses

Costs and
expenses other than product costs are charged to income in interim periods as incurred, or allocated among interim periods based on an estimate of time expired, benefit received or activity associated with the periods. Procedures adopted for
assigning specific cost and expense items to an interim period are consistent with the basis followed by the registrant in reporting results of operations at annual reporting dates. However, when a specific cost or expense item charged to expense
for annual reporting purposes benefits more than one interim period, the cost or expense item is allocated to the interim periods.

c)   Inventories

Inventories at interim dates are determined by using both perpetual records and gross profit
calculations.

d)   Accounting for income taxes

The provision for income taxes is
calculated by using the effective tax rate anticipated for the full year.

e)   Earnings per share

Historical basic per share data is based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding. Historical diluted per share data is reconciled by adding to weighted average shares outstanding the dilutive impact of the
exercise of outstanding stock options.

f)   Use of Estimates

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.

g)   Comprehensive (Loss) Income

Total comprehensive (loss) income represents the change in equity during a period,
from sources other than transactions with shareholders and, as such, includes net earnings. For the Company, the only other component of total comprehensive income is the change in the fair value of derivatives accounted for as cash flow
hedges.

h)   Operating Segments

FAS No. 131 Disclosures about
Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information requires disclosures of certain information about operating segments and about products and services, geographic areas in which the Company operates, and their major customers. The Company has
evaluated the effect of this standard and has determined that currently it operates in one segment, as defined in this statement.

i)   Derivative Financial Instruments

The Company has only limited involvement with derivative financial instruments.
The Company has one interest rate swap agreement to hedge against the potential impact on earnings from increases in market interest rates of a variable rate term loan. Under the interest rate swap agreement, the Company receives or makes payments
on a monthly basis, based on the differential between a specified interest rate and one month LIBOR. A term loan of $9,073,781 is designated as a hedged item for interest rate swaps at June 30, 2002.

This
interest rate swap is accounted for as a cash flow hedge in accordance with FAS 133 and FAS 138 which were implemented as of the beginning of the 2001 fiscal year. As of the report date, all swaps met effectiveness tests, and as such no gains or
losses were included in net income during the quarter related to hedge ineffectiveness and there was no income adjustment related to any portion excluded from the assessment of hedge effectiveness. A loss of $244,000 was included in other
comprehensive income (loss) for the three months ended June 30, 2002. A gain of $113,000 was included in other comprehensive income (loss) for the comparable period in 2001. A loss of $124,000 was included in other comprehensive income (loss) for
the six months ended June 30, 2002. A loss of $115,000 was included in other comprehensive income (loss) for the comparable period in 2001. The original term of the contract is ten years.

j)   Reclassifications

Certain reclassifications to the 2001 financial information have been made to conform to the
2002 presentation.

NOTE 2  Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets:

In June 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141, Business Combinations, which
eliminates the pooling method of accounting for all business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001 and addresses the initial recognition and measurement of goodwill and other intangible assets acquired in a business combination. The Company has
adopted this accounting standard.

As of January 1, 2002, the Company adopted SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, which addresses the financial accounting and reporting standards for
the acquisition of intangible assets outside of a business combination and for goodwill and other intangible assets subsequent to their acquisition. This accounting standard requires that goodwill be separately disclosed from other intangible assets
in the statement of financial position, and no longer be amortized but tested for impairment on a periodic basis.

In accordance with SFAS No. 121, Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for
Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed of, the Company has historically evaluated goodwill for impairment by comparing the entity level balance of goodwill to projected undiscounted cash flows, which did not result in an indicated impairment. SFAS No. 142
requires that goodwill be tested for impairment at the reporting unit level upon adoption and at least annually thereafter, utilizing a two-step methodology. The initial step requires the Company to determine the fair value of each reporting unit
and compare it to the carrying value, including goodwill, of such unit. The Company determined the fair value of each reporting unit by using a combination of present value and multiple of earnings valuation techniques and compared it to the
reporting units carrying values. If the fair value exceeds the carrying value, no impairment loss would be recognized. However, if the carrying value of the re porting unit exceeds its fair value, the goodwill of this unit may be impaired. The
amount, if any, of the impairment would then be measured in the second step. The Company completed the first step during the second quarter that indicated that goodwill recorded in the Empire and Sope Creek segments was impaired as of January 1,
2002. Due to the potential impairment, the Company then completed step two of the test to measure the amount of the impairment. Based on that analysis, a transitional impairment loss of $7,065,000 ($4,505,000 after tax), or $0.63 per diluted share
after tax, was recognized as the cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle. In accordance with SFAS No. 142, this impairment loss is recorded retroactive to January 1, 2002.

On March 26, 1999, the Company entered into a 3-year credit agreement with First Union that made available to the Company up to $15,000,000 on a revolving credit basis. Interest is payable
at LIBOR plus 0.60% based upon the one-month LIBOR rate for U.S. dollar based borrowings (2.44% at June 30, 2002). The Company pays an annual commitment fee of 0.15% on the average unused portion of the commitment. The available balance under the
credit agreement is reduced by outstanding letters of credit. As of June 30, 2002, approximately $1,114,000 was outstanding under letters of credit. On March 27, 2001, the Company entered into an agreement with First Union to extend the maturity of
the revolving credit agreement. The revolving credit agreement matures on March 26, 2004. At the option of the Company, any outstanding balance on the agreement at that date will convert to a one-year term loan. The remaining terms of the original
revolving credit agreement remain unchanged. The Company also entered into a $12,000,000 10-year term loan on March 26, 1999 with the same bank. The term loan is an amortizing loan, with monthly payments of principal and interest, maturing on April
1, 2009. The term loan carries a variable interest rate of LIBOR plus 0.80% based upon the one-month LIBOR rate for U.S. dollar based borrowings. Concurrent with the execution of the term loan agreement, the Company entered into an interest rate
swap with the bank under which the Company receives a variable rate of interest on a notional amount equal to the outstanding balance of the term loan from the bank and the Company pays a fixed rate of 6.75% on a notional amount equal to the
outstanding balance of the term loan to the bank.

On October 16, 2000, the Company entered into a 5-year term loan with First Union. The term loan is an amortizing loan, with monthly payments of principal in the
amount of $83,333 plus interest, maturing on November 1, 2005. The term loan carried a variable interest rate of LIBOR plus 0.80% based upon the one-month LIBOR rate for U.S. dollar based borrowings. The proceeds of this term loan were utilized to
reduce the outstanding balance on the Companys revolving credit agreement. Concurrent with the execution of the new term loan agreement, First Union and the Company amended the March 26, 1999 term loan and the revolving credit agreement to
revise the net worth requirements. The net worth requirements included below reflect this amendment. This term loan was paid in full in June 2001.

The credit agreement and the term loans with First Union contain
restrictive provisions concerning debt to net worth ratios, other borrowings, capital expenditures, rental commitments, tangible net worth ($66,090,000 at June 30, 2002); working capital ratio (2.5:1), fixed charges coverage ratio (2.5:1), stock
repurchases and payment of dividends. At June 30, 2002, under the most restrictive terms of the debt agreements, retained earnings of approximately $12,277,000 were available for declaration of dividends. The Company is in full compliance with all
terms, conditions and covenants of the various credit agreements.

NOTE 4  Extraordinary Item:

On March 18, 2002, the Company prepaid its outstanding debt with
MassMutual in the amount of $6,250,000. As a result of this pre-payment, the Company incurred pre-payment penalties in the amount of $285,000 and wrote-off deferred financing costs of approximately $7,000. These items are shown net of a tax benefit
of $105,000 for a net extraordinary loss of approximately $187,000 in the six-month period ended June 30, 2002.

INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS REPORT

Board of DirectorsSuperior Uniform Group, Inc.Seminole, Florida

We have reviewed the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet of Superior Uniform Group, Inc. and subsidiary as of June 30, 2002 and the related condensed consolidated summaries of operations for the three-month and six-month
periods ended June 30, 2002 and 2001 and of cash flows for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2002 and 2001. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Companys management.

We
conducted our review in accordance with standards established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. A review of interim financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures to financial data and of making
inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America, the objective of which is the
expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.

Based on our review, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be
made to such condensed consolidated financial statements for them to be in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

We have previously audited, in accordance with
auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America, the consolidated balance sheet of Superior Uniform Group, Inc. as of December 31, 2001, and the related consolidated statements of earnings, shareholders equity, and
cash flows for the year then ended (not presented herein); and in our report dated February 25, 2002, we expressed an unqualified opinion on those financial statements. In our opinion, the information set forth in the accompanying condensed
consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2001 is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the consolidated balance sheet from which it has been derived.

As discussed in Note 2 to
the condensed consolidated financial statements, as of January 1, 2002, the Company changed its method of accounting for goodwill and other intangible assets to conform to Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 142, and
retroactively recorded a cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle as of January 1, 2002.

|ITEM 2. | Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
|------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Results of Operations

Net sales increased from $38,368,931 for the three months ended June 30, 2001 to $38,442,104 for the three months ended June 30, 2002. Net sales decreased from $77,304,546 for the six months ended June 30, 2001 to $72,090,330 for the six
months ended June 30, 2002. The decrease in the six-month total is attributed to lower purchasing levels by existing customers and a reduction in the number of new uniform programs in the first half of the year.

Cost of goods sold, as a percentage of sales, approximated 65.7% for the six months ended June 30, 2002 compared to 65.4% for the six months ended June 30, 2001.

Selling and administrative expenses, as a
percentage of sales, were approximately 29.0% and 26.5%, respectively, for the first six months of 2002 and 2001. Included in selling and administrative expenses in the current year period is approximately $1,046,000 of bad debt expense versus
approximately $72,000 in the prior year period. This increase is primarily attributed to one large account that has been reserved for in the current period. Additionally, selling and administrative expenses in the current period included
approximately $360,000 related to the Companys review of a potential acquisition that we are no longer pursuing. On April 23, 2001, the Company received a one-time payment of $4.0 million in connection with the resolution of outstanding vendor
matters. This resulted in a one-time gain of $1,683,000 that is recorded as a reduction of selling and administrative expenses in the six-month period ended June 30, 2001. Without this gain, selling and administrative expenses for the quarter ended
June 30, 2001, as a percentage of sales, were approximately 28.7%.

Interest expense of $487,760 for the six-month period ended June 30, 2002 decreased 47.2% from $923,757 for the similar period ended June 30,
2001 due to lower average outstanding borrowings in the current period.

Extraordinary item  loss on early extinguishment of debt in the amount of $187,039, net of a tax benefit of $105,000, was recognized
in the six-month period ended June 30, 2002. This loss related to the prepayment of the Companys outstanding loan with Mass Mutual of approximately $6.2 million. This pre-payment should result in annualized interest savings of approximately
$400,000 per year.

Cumulative effect of change in accounting principle charge in the amount of $4,504,563, net of a tax benefit of $2,560,000 was recorded in the six-month period as a result of the
Companys adoption of SFAS No. 142. The Company completed its transitional impairment testing of goodwill and determined that its goodwill was impaired.

Net earnings decreased 25.1% to $1,489,494 for the
three months ended June 30, 2002 as compared to earnings before extraordinary item and cumulative effect of change in accounting principle of $1,988,796 for the same period ended June 30, 2001. This decrease is attributed to the impact of the
one-time gain reported in the quarter ended June 30, 2001 offset by the impact of staffing reductions implemented in the second half of 2001. Net loss for the six months ended June 30, 2002 was $2,593,578 as compared to net earnings of $3,384,065
for the same period in 2001. This decline was primarily due to the cumulative effect of change in accounting principle in the current period and the one time gain reported in the six month period ended June 30, 2001.

Accounts receivable and other current assets decreased 6.9% from $28,163,020 on December 31, 2001 to $26,213,673 as of June 30, 2002.

Inventories decreased 11.0% from $48,093,159 on December 31, 2001 to
$42,824,277 as of June 30, 2002.

Accounts payable decreased 20.6% from $6,801,799 on December 31, 2001 to $5,401,108 on June 30, 2002 primarily due to decreases in purchases of raw material
inventories.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash and cash equivalents increased by $160,349 from $3,214,592 on December 31, 2001 to $3,374,941 as of June 30, 2002.
Total borrowings under long-term debt agreements decreased by $7,173,847 from $16,247,628 on December 31, 2001 to $9,073,781 as of June 30, 2002. The Company has operated without hindrance or restraint with its present working capital, as income
generated from operations and outside sources of credit, both trade and institutional, have been more than adequate.



---

In the foreseeable future, the Company will continue its ongoing capital expenditure program designed to maintain and improve its facilities. The Company at all times evaluates its capital
expenditure program in light of prevailing economic conditions. The Company believes that its cash flow from operating activities together with other capital resources and funds from credit sources will be adequate to meet all of its funding
requirements for the remainder of the year and for the foreseeable future.

During the six months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively, the Company paid cash dividends of $1,903,271 and $1,923,433. During
those same periods, the Company reacquired and retired zero shares, of its common stock. The Company anticipates that it will continue to pay dividends and that it will reacquire and retire shares of its common stock in the future as financial
conditions permit.

Forward-Looking Statements: Statements contained in this Quarterly Report contain certain forward-looking statements that involve a number of risks and uncertainties. Among the factors that
could cause actual results to differ materially are the following - general economic conditions in the areas of the United States in which the Companys customers are located including the current economic slowdown; changes in the healthcare,
resort and commercial industries where uniforms and service apparel are worn; the impact of competition; and the availability of manufacturing materials.

|ITEM 3. | Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
|------- | ----------------------------------------------------------

The Company is exposed to
market risk from changes in interest rates, which may adversely affect its results of operations and financial condition. The Company seeks to minimize the risks from these interest rates when considered appropriate, through the limited use of
derivative financial instruments. The Companys policy is to not use financial instruments for trading or other speculative purposes and is not a party to any leveraged financial instruments. The Company has debt obligations with variable
interest rates tied to LIBOR which are described in Liquidity and Capital Resources as well as Note 1 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. The Company estimates that a hypothetical increase in interest rates of 1% would
have resulted in no change in the Companys interest expense for the six-month period ended June 30, 2002.

The Company has one
interest rate swap agreement to hedge against the potential impact on earnings from increases in market interest rates of a variable rate term loan. Under the interest rate swap agreement, the Company receives or makes payments on a monthly basis,
based on the differential between a specified interest rate and one month LIBOR. A term loan of $9,073,781 is designated as a hedged item for interest rate swaps at June 30, 2002. This interest rate swap is accounted for as a cash flow hedge in
accordance with FAS 133 and FAS 138 which were implemented as of the beginning of the fiscal year 2001. As of the report date, the swap met the effectiveness test, and as such no gains or losses were included in net income during the quarter related
to hedge ineffectiveness and there was no income adjustment related to any portion excluded from the assessment of hedge effectiveness. A loss of $124,000 was in cluded in other comprehensive income (loss) for the six months ended June 30, 2002. A
loss of $115,000 was included in other comprehensive income (loss) for the comparable period in 2001. The original term of the contract is ten years.

The Company is also exposed to changes in prevailing market interest rates affecting the return on its investments but does not consider this interest rate market risk
exposure to be material to its financial condition or results of operations. The Company invests primarily in highly liquid debt instruments with strong credit ratings and short-term (less than three months) maturities.
