SUPERIOR UNIFORM GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2009 AND 2008

(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 subsidiaries Fashion Seal Corporation and Superior Office Solutions, and their jointly owned subsidiaries, The
Office Gurus and The Office Masters. 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 consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto included in the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended
December 31, 2008, and filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The interim financial information contained herein is not certified or audited; it reflects all adjustments (consisting of only 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 as
of and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009 has been reviewed by Grant Thornton LLP, independent registered public accounting firm, 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) Revenue recognition

The Company records revenue as products are shipped and title passes. A provision for estimated returns and allowances is recorded based on historical experience and current allowance programs.

c) 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.

d) Advertising expenses

The Company expenses advertising costs as incurred. Total advertising costs for the three-month periods ended September 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively were $9,634 and $44,835. Advertising costs for the nine-month periods ended
September 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively were $51,702 and $147,931.

e) Shipping and handling fees and costs

The Company includes shipping and handling fees billed to customers in net sales. Shipping and handling costs associated with in-bound
and out-bound freight are generally recorded in cost of goods sold. Other shipping and handling costs such as labor and overhead are included in selling and administrative expenses and totaled $1,574,284 and $1,773,629 for the three months ended
September 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively. Other shipping and handling costs included in selling and administrative expenses totaled $4,805,414 and $5,591,519, for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively.

f) Inventories

Inventories at interim dates are determined by using both perpetual records on a first-in, first-out basis and gross profit calculations.

g) Accounting for income taxes

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

h) Employee benefit plan settlements

The Company recognizes settlement gains and losses in its financial statements when the cost of all settlements in a year is greater than the sum of the service cost and interest cost components of net
periodic pension cost for the plan for the year.

i) 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 and stock appreciation rights.

Awards to purchase 1,037,275 and 796,300 shares of common stock with weighted average exercise prices
of $11.08 and $13.39 per share were outstanding during the three-month periods ending September 30, 2009 and September 30, 2008, respectively, but were not included in the computation of diluted EPS because the awards exercise prices
were greater than the average market price of the common shares.

Awards to purchase an average of 1,056,717 and 870,642 shares of common
stock with weighted average exercise prices of $11.28 and $13.34 per share were outstanding during the nine-month periods ending September 30, 2009 and September 30, 2008, respectively, but were not included in the computation of diluted
EPS because the awards exercise prices were greater than the average market price of the common shares.

j) 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.

k) Comprehensive income

Total comprehensive 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 components of total comprehensive income are the change in the fair value of derivatives accounted for as cash flow hedges and pension costs.

l) Operating Segments

Accounting standards require 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 its operations and has determined that currently it operates in one segment, as defined in the standards.

m) Derivative Financial Instruments

The Company has had only limited involvement with derivative financial instruments. The Company had one interest rate swap agreement to hedge against the potential impact on earnings from increases in
market interest rates associated with interest payments on a variable rate term loan.

This interest rate swap was accounted for as a cash
flow hedge. This swap expired on April 1, 2009. Gains of $-0- and $12,000 were included in other comprehensive income for the three months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively. Gains of $5,000 and $23,000 were included in other
comprehensive income for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively. The original term of the contract was ten years.

n) Share-Based Compensation

The Company awards share-based compensation as an
incentive for employees to contribute to the Companys long-term success. Historically, the Company has issued options and stock settled stock appreciation rights. At September 30, 2009, the Company had 1,595,025 shares of common stock
authorized for awards of share-based compensation under its 2003 Incentive Stock and Awards Plan.

For the three months ended
September 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively, the Company recognized $83,907 and $60,069 of share-based compensation, recorded in selling and administrative expense in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Earnings. For the nine months ended
September 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively, the Company recognized $274,793 and $263,146 of pre-tax share-based compensation expense, recorded in selling and administrative expense in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Earnings. This
expense was offset by a $13,000 and a $21,000 deferred tax benefit for non-qualified sharebased compensation for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively. As of September 30, 2009, the Company had no
unrecognized compensation cost expected to be recognized for prior share-based awards. The Companys standard vesting policies provide for immediate vesting at the date of grant.

The Company grants stock options and stock settled stock appreciation rights (SARS) to employees that allow them to purchase shares of the Companys common stock. Options are also granted
to outside members of the Board of Directors of the Company. The Company determines the fair value of stock options and SARS at the date of grant using the Black-Scholes valuation model.

All options and SARS vest immediately at the date of grant. Awards generally expire five years after the date of grant with the exception of options granted to outside directors, which expire ten years
after the date of grant. The Company issues new shares upon the exercise of stock options and SARS.

During the three-month periods ended
September 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively, the Company received $-0- and $10,848 in cash from stock option exercises. During the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively, the Company received $-0- and $29,168 in
cash from stock option exercises. No tax benefit was recognized for these exercises, as the options exercised were qualified incentive stock options.

o) Subsequent Events

The Company evaluated all events or transactions that occurred after September 30, 2009 up through October 21, 2009, the date these financial statements were issued. During this period the Company did not have any material
recognizable subsequent events.

NOTE 2  Recent Accounting Pronouncements:

In April 2008, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued FASB Staff Position No. FAS 142-3, Determination of the Useful
Life of Intangible Assets, which was primarily codified into Topic 350 Intangibles  Goodwill and Other in the Accounting Standards Codification (ASC). This guidance amends the factors that should
be considered in developing renewal or extension assumptions used to determine the useful life of a recognized intangible asset and requires enhanced related disclosures. This guidance must be applied prospectively to all intangible assets
acquired as of and subsequent to fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008. This guidance became effective for the Company on January 1, 2009. Although future transactions involving intangible assets may be impacted by this
guidance, it did not impact the Companys financial statements as the Company did not acquire any intangible assets during the nine months ended September 30, 2009.

In December 2007, the FASB issued FAS No. 141(R), Business Combinations, which was primarily codified into Topic 805 Business Combinations in the ASC. This
standard modifies certain aspects of how the acquiring entity recognizes and measures the identifiable assets, the liabilities assumed and the goodwill acquired in a business combination. This guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after
December 15, 2008. Although this guidance will impact the Companys accounting for business combinations completed on or after January 1, 2009, it did not impact the Companys financial statements as the Company did not
enter into any business combinations during the nine months ended September 30, 2009.

In June 2009, the FASB issued FAS No. 167
Amendments to FASB Interpretation No. 46(R), which has not yet been codified in the ASC. This guidance is a revision to pre-existing guidance pertaining to the consolidation and disclosures of variable interest entities.
Specifically, it changes how a reporting entity determines when an entity that is insufficiently capitalized or is not controlled through voting (or similar rights) should be consolidated. The determination of whether a

reporting entity is required to consolidate another entity is based on, among other things, the other entitys purpose and design and the reporting entitys ability to direct the
activities of the other entity that most significantly impact the other entitys economic performance. This guidance will require a reporting entity to provide additional disclosures about its involvement with variable interest entities
and any significant changes in risk exposure due to that involvement. A reporting entity will be required to disclose how its involvement with a variable interest entity affects the reporting entitys financial statements. This guidance will be
effective at the start of a reporting entitys first fiscal year beginning after November 15, 2009. Early application is not permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact on its financial statements, if any, upon adoption.

In June 2009, the FASB issued FAS No. 168, The FASB Accounting Standards Codification and the Hierarchy of Generally Accepted
Accounting Principles, which was primarily codified into Topic 105 Generally Accepted Accounting Standards in the ASC. This standard is the single source of authoritative nongovernmental U.S. generally accepted
accounting principles (GAAP), superseding existing FASB, American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA), Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF), and related accounting literature. This standard reorganizes
the thousands of GAAP pronouncements into roughly 90 accounting topics and displays them using a consistent structure. Also included is relevant Securities and Exchange Commission guidance organized using the same topical structure in separate
sections. This guidance is effective for financial statements issued for reporting periods that end after September 15, 2009. Beginning in the current quarter, this guidance impacts the Companys financial statements and related
disclosures as all references to authoritative accounting literature reflect the newly adopted codification.

On March 26, 1999, the Company entered into a 3-year credit agreement with Wachovia Bank 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 (0.85% at September 30, 2009). 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 September 30, 2009, approximately $85,000 was outstanding under letters
of credit. On March 27, 2001, on April 27, 2004, and again on June 25, 2007, the Company entered into agreements with Wachovia Bank to extend the maturity of the revolving credit agreement. The revolving credit agreement matures on
June 30, 2010. 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 was paid in full on March 31, 2009. 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. Concurrent with the execution of the term loan agreement, the Company entered into an interest rate swap with the bank under which the Company received a variable rate of interest on a notional amount equal to the
outstanding balance of the term loan from the bank and the Company paid a fixed rate of 6.75% on a notional amount equal to the outstanding balance of the term loan to the bank. This swap agreement expired April 1, 2009.

The credit agreement with Wachovia contains restrictive provisions concerning liabilities to tangible net worth ratios (.75:1), other borrowings, capital
expenditures; working capital ratio (2.5:1), and fixed charges coverage ratio (2.5:1). The Company is in full compliance with all terms, conditions and covenants of the various credit agreements.

Contributions of $1,000,000 were made to the Companys benefit plans during the nine months
ended September 30, 2009. There were no contributions made to the Companys benefit plans during the nine month period ended September 30, 2008.

NOTE 5  Supplemental Cash Flow Information:

The Company received a note receivable
for $324,606 as partial payment related to the sale of the Sope Creek business during 2008. In the nine months ended September 30, 2009, the Company accepted $64,000 in inventory as partial payment on this note receivable.

Cash paid for income taxes was $867,425 and $1,438,492, respectively, for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2009 and 2008. Cash paid for
interest was $97,650 and $254,243, respectively, for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2009 and 2008.

NOTE 6 
Discontinued Operations:

During the fourth quarter of 2007, the Company made a decision to divest its Sope Creek operations. As a result,
the related assets of Sope Creek were classified as held for sale at December 31, 2007 and were written down to their estimated fair value less selling costs. The write down to fair value resulted in a charge to loss from discontinued
operations of approximately $596,000, net of tax benefit in the fourth quarter of 2007. Additionally, the results of operations of Sope Creek have been reported as a loss from discontinued operations in the condensed consolidated statements of
operations. The table below summarizes financial results for the Sope Creek business:

The Company completed the sale of its Sope Creek business on February 4, 2008. The Company
received $225,000 in cash at closing and a short-term note receivable for $324,606. These proceeds, net of expenses related to the transaction, approximated the carrying value of the assets sold.

NOTE 7  Contingencies:

The Company
has entered into indemnification agreements with its directors and certain of its officers that will require the Company, among other things, to indemnify them against certain liabilities that may arise by reason of their status or service as
directors or officers. The Company maintains director and officer insurance, which may cover certain liabilities arising from its obligation to indemnify its directors and officers in certain circumstances. No claims have ever been filed under these
agreements.

It is not possible to determine the aggregate maximum potential loss under these indemnification agreements. Historically, the
Company has not incurred any costs as a result of obligations under these agreements and it has not accrued any liabilities related to such indemnification obligations in its condensed consolidated financial statements for any period presented.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

Board of Directors and Shareholders

Superior
Uniform Group, Inc.

We have reviewed the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet of Superior Uniform Group, Inc. and
subsidiaries (a Florida Corporation) as of September 30, 2009, and the related condensed consolidated statements of earnings and cash flows for the three-month and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2009 and 2008. These interim
financial statements are the responsibility of the Companys management.

We conducted our reviews in accordance with the standards of
the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). A review of interim financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is
substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), 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 reviews, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be
made to the accompanying condensed 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 the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated balance sheet of the Company as of December 31, 2008,
and the related consolidated statements of earnings, stockholders equity, and cash flows for the year then ended (not presented herein); and in our report dated February 27, 2009, we expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated
financial statements. In our opinion, the information set forth in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2008, is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the balance sheet from which it has
been derived.

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

Certain matters discussed in this Form 10-Q are forward-looking statements intended to qualify for the safe harbors from liability established
by the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements can generally be identified as such because the context of the statement will include words such as we believe, anticipate,
expect or words of similar import. Similarly, statements that describe our future plans, objectives, strategies or goals are also forward-looking statements. Such forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties
that may materially adversely affect the anticipated results. Such risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited, to the following: general economic conditions in the areas of the United States in which the Companys customers are
located; changes in the healthcare, resort and commercial industries where uniforms and service apparel are worn; the impact of competition; the availability of manufacturing materials, and other factors described in the Companys filings with
the Securities and Exchange Commission, including those described in the Risk Factors section of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2008. Shareholders, potential investors and other readers are
urged to consider these factors carefully in evaluating the forward-looking statements made herein and are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such forward-looking statements. The forward-looking statements made herein are only made as of the
date of this Form 10-Q and we disclaim any obligation to publicly update such forward-looking statements to reflect subsequent events or circumstances.

Critical Accounting Policies

Our significant accounting policies are described in
Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements included in the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008. Our discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations are based upon our
consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of the financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that
affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an on-going basis, we evaluate the estimates that we have made. These estimates are based upon our historical
experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Our actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

Our critical accounting estimates are those that we believe require our most significant judgments about the effect of matters that are inherently
uncertain. A discussion of our critical accounting estimates, the underlying judgments and uncertainties used to make them and the likelihood that materially different estimates would be reported under different conditions or using different
assumptions is as follows:

Allowance for Losses on Accounts Receivable

These allowances are based on both recent trends of certain customers estimated to be a greater credit risk as well as general trends of the entire customer
pool. If the financial condition of the Companys customers were to deteriorate, resulting in an impairment of their ability to make payments, additional allowances may be required. An additional impairment in value of one percent of net
accounts receivable would require an increase in the allowance for doubtful accounts and would result in additional expense of approximately $186,000.

Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market value. Judgments
and estimates are used in determining the likelihood that new goods on hand can be sold to customers. Historical inventory usage and current revenue trends are considered in estimating both excess and obsolete inventories. If actual product demand
and market conditions are less favorable than those projected by management, additional inventory write-downs may be required.

Insurance

The Company self-insures for certain obligations related to health insurance programs. The Company also
purchases stop-loss insurance policies to protect it from catastrophic losses. Judgments and estimates are used in determining the potential value associated with reported claims and for losses that have occurred, but have not been reported. The
Companys estimates consider historical claim experience and other factors. The Companys liabilities are based on estimates, and, while the Company believes that the accrual for loss is adequate, the ultimate liability may be in excess of
or less than the amounts recorded. Changes in claim experience, the Companys ability to settle claims or other estimates and judgments used by management could have a material impact on the amount and timing of expense for any period.

Pensions

The Companys pension obligations are determined using estimates including those related to discount rates, asset values and changes in compensation. The discount rates used for the Companys pension plans were determined based on
the Citigroup Pension Yield Curve. This rate was selected as the best estimate of the rate at which the benefit obligations could be effectively settled on the measurement date taking into account the nature and duration of the benefit
obligations of the plan using high-quality fixed-income investments currently available (rated AA or better) and expected to be available during the period to maturity of the benefits. The 8% expected return on plan assets was determined based on
historical long-term investment returns as well as future expectations given target investment asset allocations and current economic conditions.



15



---

The 4.5% rate of compensation increase represents the long-term assumption for expected increases in
salaries among continuing active participants accruing benefits under the plans. Interest rates and pension plan valuations may vary significantly based on worldwide economic conditions and asset investment decisions.

Income Taxes

The
Company is required to estimate and record income taxes payable for federal and state jurisdictions in which the Company operates. This process involves estimating actual current tax expense and assessing temporary differences resulting from
differing accounting treatment between tax and book that result in deferred tax assets and liabilities. In addition, accruals are also estimated for federal and state tax matters for which deductibility is subject to interpretation. Taxes payable
and the related deferred tax differences may be impacted by changes to tax laws, changes in tax rates and changes in taxable profits and losses. Federal income taxes are not provided on that portion of unremitted earnings of foreign subsidiaries
that are expected to be reinvested indefinitely. Reserves are also estimated for uncertain tax positions that are currently unresolved. The Company routinely monitors the potential impact of such situations and believes that it is properly reserved.
We accrue interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in income tax expense, and the related liability is included in the total liability for unrecognized tax benefits.

Share-based Compensation

The Company recognizes expense for all share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, in the financial statements based on their fair values. Share-based compensation expense that was recorded in 2009 and
2008 includes the compensation expense for the share-based payments granted in those years. In the Companys share-based compensation strategy we utilize a combination of stock options and stock appreciation rights (SARS) that fully
vest on the date of grant. Therefore, the fair value of the options and SARS granted is recognized as expense on the date of grant. The Company used the Black-Scholes-Merton valuation model to value any share-based compensation. Option valuation
methods, including Black-Scholes-Merton, require the input of assumptions including the risk free interest rate, dividend rate, expected term and volatility rate. The Company determines the assumptions to be used based upon current economic
conditions. The impact of changing any of the individual assumptions by 10% would not have a material impact on the recorded expense.

Results of Operations

The current economic environment in the United States remains very challenging. A significant
number of companies, including many of our customers, have closed locations, reduced headcount or both. Additionally, voluntary employee turnover has been reduced significantly. Fewer available jobs coupled with less attrition resulted in
decreased demand for our uniforms and service apparel. Additionally, customers are being more cost conscious and are delaying purchases of new uniforms whenever possible. As a result of these factors, net sales decreased 9.8% from $30,613,175
for the three months ended September 30, 2008 to $27,605,397 for the three months ended September 30, 2009. Net sales decreased 20.2% from $95,595,090 for the nine months ended September 30, 2008 to $76,293,014 for the nine months
ended September 30, 2009.

As a result of these significant declines in our revenue, we have implemented aggressive cost reduction
initiatives to limit the impact on our results of operations. These initiatives are aimed at eliminating nonessential positions, streamlining our existing processes and shifting administrative positions to our Central American subsidiary when
possible. As a result of these initiatives, we have eliminated approximately $3.8 million in payroll and related benefits on an annual basis. These specific initiatives were started during the first quarter of 2009 and are expected to produce
total payroll related savings during fiscal 2009 of approximately $2.9 million. These initiatives are in addition to prior year staff reductions. While we believe that we have implemented appropriate cost reduction measures to address
the current economic environment, if weak economic conditions continue, it could have a material adverse effect on our revenues and results of operations.

Cost of goods sold, as a percentage of sales, approximated 67.5% for the three months ended September 30, 2009 compared to 67.1% for the three months ended September 30, 2008. Cost of goods
sold, as a percentage of sales, approximated 67.7% for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 compared to 66.9% for the nine months ended September 30, 2008. The increase as a percentage of sales in the three-month period is primarily
attributed to an increase in direct product costs as a percentage of sales (1.2%) offset by the impact of more efficient operations in our value added services area (0.8%). The increase in the nine-month period is primarily attributed to an
increase in direct product costs as a percentage of sales (0.6%) combined with the significant reduction in net sales outpacing the reduction in overhead included within cost of sales (0.2%). The Companys gross margins may not be comparable
with other entities, since some entities include all of the cost related to their distribution network in cost of goods sold. As disclosed in Note 1 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, the Company includes a portion of the costs
associated with its distribution network in selling and administrative expenses. The amounts included in selling and administrative expenses for the three-month periods ended September 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively, were $1,574,284 and
$1,773,629. The amounts included in selling and administrative expenses for the nine-month periods ending September 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively, were $4,805,414 and $5,591,519.



16



---

Selling and administrative expenses, as a percentage of sales, approximated 26.2% and 27.7% respectively,
for the three-month periods ended September 30, 2009 and 2008. Selling and administrative expenses, as a percentage of net sales, were approximately 29.6% and 27.6%, respectively, for the first nine months of 2009 and 2008. The decrease as a
percentage of sales in the three-month period is primarily attributed to decreased salaries, wages and benefits other than pensions (4.6%) offset by the impact of lower net sales to cover operating expenses (2.6%) and higher retirement
plan expense (0.9%). The increase as a percentage of sales in the nine-month period is primarily attributed to the impact of lower net sales to cover operating expenses (6.0%) and higher retirement plan expense (0.9%) offset by decreased
salaries, wages and benefits other than pensions (4.6%).

Interest expense of $28,325 for the three-month period ended September 30, 2009
decreased from $68,511 for the similar period ended September 30, 2008. Interest expense of $93,038 for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2009 decreased from $249,861 for the similar period ended September 30, 2008. The
decrease in the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2009 is attributed to the reduction in outstanding borrowings in the current periods.

The Companys effective tax rate for the three months ended September 30, 2009 was 25.9% versus 35.4% for the three months ended September 30, 2008. The Companys effective tax
rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 was 27.8% versus 37.9% for the nine months ended September 30, 2008. The decrease in the rate for the three-month period is attributed primarily to a benefit for untaxed foreign income
(8.5%) in the current period, a decreased accrual for uncertain tax positions (1.4%), a decreased accrual for state taxes (2.5%), offset by an increase from the impact of permanent differences between book and tax basis earnings related to
share-based compensation (0.8%) and other items (2.1%). The decrease in the rate for the nine-month period is attributed primarily to a benefit for untaxed foreign income (8.5%) in the current period, a decreased accrual for uncertain tax
positions (1.9%), a decreased accrual for state taxes (1.2%) offset by the increase from the impact of permanent differences between book and tax basis earnings related to share-based compensation (1.0%), and other items (0.3%).

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Accounts receivable and other current assets increased 4.2% from $20,054,629 on December 31, 2008 to $20,894,234 as of September 30, 2009 due primarily to higher net sales in the last two months of the current quarter in
comparison to the last two months of the fourth quarter of 2008.

Inventories decreased 28.0% from $43,410,146 on December 31, 2008 to
$31,269,921 as of September 30, 2009 as a result of inventory reduction measures implemented by management in anticipation of the lower expected net sales.

Accounts payable increased 19.7% from $4,626,789 on December 31, 2008 to $5,537,370 on September 30, 2009. This increase is inconsistent with the significant reduction in inventories discussed
above due to the fact that the Company pays for a significant portion of its inventory purchases at the time the goods are shipped from its suppliers. However, the Company does not gain title for these goods until they reach the Companys
location. As a result, a large portion of these purchases are never reflected in accounts payable balances. An additional factor in this increase is attributed to increased purchases that were made just before the end of the current period as we are
no longer working to bring inventory levels down significantly.

Other current liabilities decreased 21.9% from $2,518,956 on
December 31, 2008 to $1,968,104 on September 30, 2009 primarily due to reductions in accruals related to employee payroll and benefits ($492,000) and lower accruals for customer rebates as a result of the lower net sales in the current
period.

Cash and cash equivalents increased by $8,356,592 from $133,152 on December 31, 2008 to $8,489,744 as of September 30,
2009. The Company generated $15,592,585 in cash from operating activities, and utilized $405,019 in investing activities primarily related to fixed asset additions of $729,470 offset by proceeds from disposals of fixed assets of $276,039 and used
$6,830,974 in financing activities. Financing activities included the payment of cash dividends as discussed below, net repayment of long-term debt of $4,029,604, in addition to the reacquisition of the Companys common stock of $358,846.

The Company has a $15,000,000 revolving credit facility with Wachovia Bank, which matures on June 30, 2010. At the option of the
Company, any outstanding balance on the agreement at that date will convert to a one-year term loan. As of September 30, 2009, the Company had no outstanding balance on its revolving credit facility. The available balance under the credit
facility is reduced, however, by its outstanding letters of credit. As of September 30, 2009, the Company had approximately $85,000 outstanding under letters of credit. Interest on the revolving credit facility is payable at LIBOR plus 0.60%
based upon the one-month LIBOR rate for U.S. dollar based borrowings (0.85% at September 30, 2009). The Company pays an annual commitment fee of 0.15% on the average unused portion of the commitment. The Company is in full compliance with all
terms, conditions and covenants of its revolving credit facility.



17



---

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.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively, the Company paid cash dividends of $2,442,524 and $2,673,847. The Company reacquired 49,355 and 256,152 shares of its common stock at a total cost of $358,846 and
$2,386,114 in the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively. The Company anticipates that it will continue to pay dividends and that it will repurchase and retire additional shares of its common stock in the future as
financial conditions permit.

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.
