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

Bankruptcy Filing

On February 19, 2002 (the "Filing Date"), Galey & Lord, Inc. (the "Company") and
each of its domestic subsidiaries (together with the Company, the "Debtors")
filed voluntary petitions for reorganization (the "Chapter 11 Filings" or the
"Filings") under Chapter 11 of Title 11, United States Code (the "Bankruptcy
Code") in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New
York (Case Nos. 02-40445 through 02-40456 (ALG)). The Chapter 11 Filings pending
for the Debtors are being jointly administered for procedural purposes only. The
Debtors' direct and indirect foreign subsidiaries and foreign joint venture
entities did not file petitions under Chapter 11 and are not the subject of any
bankruptcy proceedings.

During the pendency of the Filings, the Debtors remain in possession of their
properties and assets and management continues to operate the businesses of the
Debtors as debtors-in-possession pursuant to Sections 1107(a) and 1108 of the
Bankruptcy Code. As debtors-in-possession, the Debtors are authorized to operate
their businesses, but may not engage in transactions outside of the ordinary
course of business without the approval of the Bankruptcy Court, after notice
and the opportunity for a hearing.

On February 19, 2002, the Debtors filed a motion seeking authority for the
Company to enter into a credit facility of up to $100 million in
debtor-in-possession ("DIP") financing with First Union National Bank (the
"Agent") and Wachovia Securities, Inc. On February 21, 2002, the Bankruptcy
Court entered an interim order approving the credit facility and authorizing
immediate access to $30 million. On March 19, 2002, the Bankruptcy Court entered
a final order approving the entire $100 million DIP financing. For a description
of the DIP Financing Agreement, see "Liquidity and Capital Resources".

The Bankruptcy Court has approved payment of certain of the Debtors'
pre-petition obligations, including, among other things, employee wages,
salaries, and benefits, and certain critical vendor and other business-related
payments necessary to maintain the operation of their businesses. The Debtors
have retained, with Bankruptcy Court approval, legal and financial professionals
to advise the Debtors in the bankruptcy proceedings and the restructuring of
their businesses, and certain other "ordinary course" professionals. From time
to time the Debtors may seek Bankruptcy Court approval for the retention of
additional professionals.

The Debtors must, subject to Bankruptcy Court approval and certain other
limitations, assume, assume and assign, or reject each of their executory
contracts and unexpired leases. In this context, "assumption" means, among other
things, re-affirming their obligations under the relevant lease or contract and
curing all monetary defaults

                                       2

<PAGE>

thereunder. In this context, "rejection" means breaching the relevant contract
or lease as of the Filing Date, being relieved of on-going obligations to
perform under the contract or lease, and being liable for damages, if any, for
the breach thereof. Such damages, if any, are deemed to have accrued prior to
the Filing Date by operation of the Bankruptcy Code. The Bankruptcy Court has
approved the rejection of one executory contract and several unexpired leases,
and the Debtors are in the process of reviewing their remaining executory
contracts and unexpired leases to determine which, if any, they will reject. At
this time the Debtors cannot reasonably estimate the ultimate liability, if any,
that may result from rejecting and/or assuming executory contracts or unexpired
leases, and no provisions have yet been made for these items.

The consummation of a plan or plans of reorganization (a "Plan") is the
principal objective of the Chapter 11 Filings. A Plan would, among other things,
set forth the means for satisfying claims against and interests in the Company
and its Debtor subsidiaries, including setting forth the potential distributions
on account of such claims and interests, if any. Pursuant to the Bankruptcy
Code, the Debtors have the exclusive right for 120 days from the Filing Date
(through and including June 18, 2002) to file a Plan, and for 180 days from the
Filing Date (through and including August 17, 2002) to solicit and receive the
votes necessary to confirm a Plan. Both of these exclusivity periods may be
extended by the Bankruptcy Court for cause. If the Debtors fail to file a Plan
during the exclusive filing period or if the Debtors fail to obtain the
requisite acceptance of such Plan during the exclusive period, any
party-in-interest, including a creditor, an equity holder, a committee of
creditors or equity holders, or an indenture trustee, may file its own Plan for
the Debtors. Confirmation of a Plan is subject to certain statutory findings by
the Bankruptcy Court. Subject to certain exceptions as set forth in the
Bankruptcy Code, confirmation of a Plan requires, among other things, a vote on
the Plan by certain classes of creditors and equity holders whose rights or
interests are impaired under the Plan. If any impaired class of creditors or
equity holders does not vote to accept the Plan, but all of the other
requirements of the Bankruptcy Code are met, the proponent of the Plan may seek
confirmation of the Plan pursuant to the "cram down" provisions of the
Bankruptcy Code. Under these provisions, the Bankruptcy Court may still confirm
a Plan notwithstanding the non-acceptance of the Plan by an impaired class,
among other things, no junior claim or interest receive or retain any property
under the Plan until each holder of a senior claim or interest has been paid in
full. As a result of the amount of pre-petition indebtedness and the
availability of the "cram down" provisions, the holders of the Company's capital
stock may receive no value for their interests under any Plan. Because of such
possibility, the value of the Company's outstanding capital stock and unsecured
instruments are highly speculative. In addition, there can be no assurance that
a Plan will be proposed by the Debtors or

                                       3

<PAGE>

confirmed by the Bankruptcy Court, or that any such Plan will be consummated.

It is not possible to predict the length of time the Company will operate under
the protection of Chapter 11 and the supervision of the Bankruptcy Court, the
outcome of the bankruptcy proceedings in general, or the effect of the
proceedings on the business of the Company or on the interest of the various
creditors and stakeholders. Since the Filing Date, the Debtors have conducted
business in the ordinary course. Management is in the process of evaluating
their operations as part of the development of a Plan. During the pendency of
the Chapter 11 Filings, the Debtors may, with Bankruptcy Court approval, sell
assets and settle liabilities, including for amounts other than those reflected
in the financial statements. The administrative and reorganization expenses
resulting from the Chapter 11 Filings will unfavorably affect the Debtors'
results of operations. In addition, under the priority scheme established by the
Bankruptcy Code, most, if not all, post-petition liabilities must be satisfied
before most other creditors or interest holders, including stockholders, can
receive any distribution on account of such claim or interest.

The Company's consolidated financial statements are presented in accordance with
American Institute of Certified Public Accountants Statement of Position 90-7,
"Financial Reporting by Entities in Reorganization under the Bankruptcy Code"
("SOP 90-7"), assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. The
Company is currently operating under the jurisdiction of Chapter 11 of the
Bankruptcy Code and the Bankruptcy Court, and continuation of the Company as a
going concern is contingent upon, among other things, its ability to formulate a
Plan which will gain approval of the requisite parties under the Bankruptcy Code
and confirmation by the Bankruptcy Court, its ability to comply with the DIP
Financing Agreement, and its ability to return to profitability, generate
sufficient cash flows from operations, and obtain financing sources to meet
future obligations. These matters raise substantial doubt about the Company's
ability to continue as a going concern. The Company's consolidated financial
statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and
classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classification of
liabilities that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties.

In the Chapter 11 Filings, substantially all unsecured liabilities as of the
Filing Date are subject to compromise or other treatment under a Plan which must
be confirmed by the Bankruptcy Court after submission to any required vote by
affected parties. Generally, all actions to enforce or otherwise effect
repayment of prepetition liabilities, as well as all pending litigation against
the Debtors, are stayed while the Debtors continue their business operations as
debtors-in-possession. The ultimate amount of and settlement terms for
liabilities subject to compromise are subject to an approved Plan

                                       4

<PAGE>

and accordingly are not presently determinable. The principal categories of
obligations classified as liabilities subject to compromise under the Chapter 11
Filings as of March 30, 2002 are identified below (in thousands):

       9 1/8% Senior Subordinated Notes           $         300,000
       Interest accrued on above debt                        12,775
       Accounts payable                                      14,155
       Accrued expenses                                       1,638
                                                  -----------------
                                                  $         328,568
                                                  =================

Pursuant to SOP 90-7, professional fees associated with the Chapter 11 Filings
are expensed as incurred and reported as reorganization items. Interest expense
is reported only to the extent that it will be paid during the Chapter 11
Filings or that it is probable that it will be an allowed claim. During the
March quarter 2002, the Company recognized a charge of $9.9 million associated
with the Chapter 11 Filings. Approximately $7.7 million of this charge related
to the non-cash write-off of the unamortized discount on the 9 1/8% Senior
Subordinated Notes and the non-cash write-off of related deferred financing
fees. In addition, the Company incurred $2.2 million for fees payable to
professionals retained to assist with the Chapter 11 Filings.

Results of Operations

The Company's operations are primarily classified into four operating segments:
(1) Galey & Lord Apparel, (2) Swift Denim, (3) Klopman International and (4)
Home Fashion Fabrics. Results for the three and six months ended March 30, 2002

March Quarter 2002 Compared to March Quarter 2001

Net Sales

Net sales for the March quarter 2002 (second quarter of fiscal 2002) were $168.0
million as compared to $231.7 million for the March quarter 2001 (second quarter
of fiscal 2001).

Galey & Lord Apparel Galey & Lord Apparel's net sales for the March quarter 2002
were $68.2 million, a $43.9 million decrease as compared to the March quarter
2001 net sales of $112.1 million. The decrease in net sales was primarily
attributable to a 25% decrease in fabric sales volume. Approximately $10.0
million of the decrease was due to the discontinuation in September 2001 of the
Company's garment making operations announced as part of the Fiscal 2001 Cost
Reduction and Loss Avoidance Initiatives. Overall, average selling prices,
inclusive of product mix changes, declined approximately 10.0%.

Swift Denim Swift Denim's net sales for the March quarter 2002 were $65.6
million as compared to $77.7 million in the March quarter 2001. The $12.1
million decrease was primarily attributable to a 10.9% decrease in volume and a
4.5% decline in selling prices. Approximately $6.9 million of the volume
decrease was due to the reduction in manufacturing capacity resulting from the
closure of the Erwin, North Carolina Facility in December 2000. The remainder of
the decrease was due to the decline in demand at retail.

<PAGE>

Klopman International Klopman International's net sales for the March quarter
2002 were $31.6 million, a $7.4 million decline as compared to the March quarter
2001 net sales of $39.0 million. The decline was primarily attributable to a
13.9% decrease in sales volume as well as a 5.0% decline in net sales due to
exchange rate changes used in translation.

Home Fashion Fabrics Net sales for Home Fashion Fabrics for the March quarter
2002 were $2.6 million compared to $2.9 million for the March quarter 2001. The
$0.3 million decrease in net sales primarily resulted from lower selling prices
and volume partially offset by changes in product mix.

Operating Income (Loss)

Operating income for the March quarter 2002 was $1.6 million as compared to
$13.5 million for the March quarter 2001. Excluding the charges related to the
Fiscal 2001 Cost Reduction and Loss Avoidance Initiatives and the Fiscal 2000
Strategic Initiatives, the March quarter 2002 operating income would have been
$3.2 million. Excluding the charges related to the Fiscal 2000 Strategic
Initiatives, the March quarter 2001 operating income would have been $16.0
million.

Galey & Lord Apparel Galey & Lord Apparel's operating loss was $1.8 million for
the March quarter 2002 as compared to an operating income of $9.2 million for
the March quarter 2001. Excluding the run-out costs associated with the Fiscal
2001 Cost Reduction and Loss Avoidance Initiatives, Galey & Lord Apparel's
operating loss for the March quarter 2002 would have been $1.1 million as
compared to an operating income of $9.6 million for the March quarter 2001
excluding the Fiscal 2000 Strategic Initiatives. The decrease is principally a
result of reduced sales and manufacturing volume due to a continuing decline in
the market and foreign price competition, lower selling prices and change in
product mix.

Swift Denim Swift Denim's operating income was $2.9 million for the March
quarter 2002 compared to $2.8 million for the March quarter 2001. Excluding the
run-out costs related to the Fiscal 2000 Strategic Initiatives, operating income
for the March quarter 2002 and March quarter 2001 would have been $3.6 million
and $4.6 million, respectively. The decrease in Swift Denim's operating income
is principally due to lower sales volume, a decline in selling prices and
curtailment in the manufacturing schedule. These declines were the direct result
of a reduction in retail demand impacted by overall economic conditions. This
decline was partially offset by positive changes in product mix, lower raw
material costs, lower energy costs and reduced lower-of-cost-or-market (LCM)
reserves due to the change in method of accounting for inventories to the
last-in-first-out (LIFO) inventory method.

Klopman International Klopman International's operating income in the March
quarter 2002 decreased $2.1 million to $1.3 million as compared to the March
quarter 2001 operating income of $3.4 million. The decrease principally reflects
the impact of lower volume and curtailment in the manufacturing schedule.

Home Fashion Fabrics Home Fashion Fabrics reported an operating loss of $0.3
million for the March quarter 2002 as compared to an operating loss of $1.3
million for the March quarter 2001. Excluding the costs associated with the
Fiscal 2001 Cost Reduction and Loss Avoidance Initiatives, Home Fashion Fabrics'
operating loss for the March quarter 2002 would have been $0.2 million. The
decrease in operating loss is due to lower fixed costs as a result of the Fiscal
2001 Cost Reduction and Loss Avoidance Initiatives.

Corporate The corporate segment reported an operating loss for the March quarter
2002 of $0.5 million as compared to an operating loss for the March quarter 2001
of $0.6 million. The corporate segment's operating income (loss) typically
represents the administrative expenses from the Company's various holding
companies.

Income from Associated Companies

Income from associated companies was $1.9 million in both the March quarter 2002
and the March quarter 2001. The income represents amounts from several joint
venture interests that manufacture and sell denim products.

Interest Expense

Interest expense was $9.4 million for the March quarter 2002 compared to $15.4
million for the March quarter 2001. The decrease in interest expense was
primarily due to the discontinuation of the 9 1/8% Senior Subordinated Notes
("Subordinated Notes") interest accrual as of the Filing Date and lower prime
and LIBOR base rates in the March quarter 2002 as compared to the March quarter
2001. The average interest rate paid by the Company on its bank debt, excluding
the Subordinated Notes, in the March quarter 2002 was 5.74% per annum as
compared to 9.0% per annum in the March quarter 2001.

Income Taxes

The Company's overall tax rate for the March quarter 2002 differed from the
statutory rate principally due to the nonrecognition of the U.S. tax benefits on
the domestic net operating loss caryforwards. The result is an overall tax
expense rate which is higher than the statutory rate.

The Job Creation and Worker Compensation Act of 2002 became effective on March
9, 2002 and provided a 5 year carryback for net operating losses incurred in tax
years ending in 2001 and 2002. As a result the Company carried back net
operating losses from the year ended

September 29, 2001 and recovered $1.2 million in federal income taxes.

Net Income (Loss) and Net Income (Loss) Per Share

Net loss for the March quarter 2002 was $15.9 million or $1.32 per common share,
compared to net income for the March quarter 2001 of $0.2 million or $.02 per
common share. Excluding the Fiscal 2001 Cost Reduction and Loss Avoidance
Initiatives, Fiscal 2000 Strategic Initiatives, and reorganization items as a
result of the Chapter 11 Filings (see "Bankruptcy Filing" above), the Company's
net loss for the March quarter 2002 would have been $4.3 million or $.36 per
common share. Excluding the Fiscal 2000 Strategic Initiatives, the Company's net
income for the March quarter 2001 would have been $1.7 million or $.14 per
share.

First Six Months of Fiscal 2002 Compared to First Six Months of Fiscal 2001

Net Sales

Net sales for the first six months of fiscal 2002 were $304.4 million as
compared to $453.4 million for the first six months of fiscal 2001.

Galey & Lord Apparel Galey & Lord Apparel's net sales for the first six months
of fiscal 2002 were $127.2 million, a $92.5 million decrease as compared to the
first six months of fiscal 2001's net sales of $219.7 million. The decrease in
net sales was primarily attributable to a 27.4% decrease in fabric sales volume.
Approximately $22.2 million of the decrease was due to the discontinuation in
September 2001 of the Company's garment making operations announced as part of
the Fiscal 2001 Cost Reduction and Loss Avoidance Initiatives. The remainder of
the decrease was due to the continuing difficult domestic retail environment and
a reduction in average selling prices. Overall, average selling prices,
inclusive of product mix changes, declined approximately 9.4%.

Swift Denim Swift Denim's net sales for the first six months of fiscal 2002 were
$109.5 million as compared to $156.3 million in the first six months of fiscal
2001. The $46.8 million decrease was primarily attributable to a 27.2% decrease
in volume and a 2.9% decline in selling prices. Approximately $17.3 million of
the volume decrease was due to the reduction in manufacturing capacity resulting
from the closure of the Erwin, North Carolina Facility in December 2000. The
remainder of the decrease was due to the decline in demand at retail.

Klopman International Klopman International's net sales for the first six months
of fiscal 2002 were $61.3 million, a $9.5 million decrease as compared to the
first six months of fiscal 2001 net sales of $70.8 million. The decrease was
primarily attributable to an 8.9% decline in sales volume and a 2.9% decline in
selling prices, inclusive of product mix changes, as well as a 1.3% decline in
net sales due to

                                       9

exchange rate changes used in translation.

Home Fashion Fabrics Net sales for Home Fashion Fabrics for the first six months
of fiscal 2002 were $6.4 million compared to $6.6 million for the first six
months of fiscal 2001. The $0.2 million decline in net sales primarily resulted
from lower selling prices and volume partially offset by changes in product mix.

Operating Income (Loss)

Operating income for the first six months of fiscal 2002 was $8.1 million as
compared to $28.0 million for the first six months of fiscal 2001. Excluding the
run-out costs associated with the Fiscal 2001 Cost Reduction and Loss Avoidance
Initiatives and Fiscal 2000 Strategic Initiatives, operating income for the
first six months of fiscal 2002 would have been $10.8 million. Excluding the
charges related to the Fiscal 2000 Strategic Initiatives, the first six months
of fiscal 2001 operating income would have been $32.4 million.

Galey & Lord Apparel Galey & Lord Apparel's operating loss was $3.8 million for
the first six months of fiscal 2002 as compared to operating income of $15.6
million for the first six months of fiscal 2001. Excluding the run-out costs
associated with the Fiscal 2001 Cost Reduction and Loss Avoidance Initiatives,
Galey & Lord Apparel's operating loss for the first six months of fiscal 2002
would have been $2.8 million as compared to operating income of $17.6 million
for the first six months of fiscal 2001 excluding the Fiscal 2000 Strategic
Initiatives. The decrease was principally a result of reduced sales due to a
continuing decline in the market and foreign price competition, lower selling
prices and change in product mix.

Swift Denim Operating income for the first six months of fiscal 2002 for Swift
Denim was $13.4 million, a $3.2 million increase as compared to the first six
months of fiscal 2001 operating income of $10.2 million. Excluding the run-out
costs related to the Fiscal 2000 Strategic Initiatives, operating income for the
first six months of fiscal 2002 and the first six months of fiscal 2001 would
have been $14.1 million and $12.4 million, respectively. The increase in Swift
Denim's operating income principally reflected positive changes in product mix,
lower utility costs, reduction of lower-of-cost-or-market (LCM) reserves due to
the change in method of accounting for inventories to the last-in, first-out
(LIFO) inventory method and lower fixed manufacturing costs due to the closure
of the Erwin facility in December 2000. These improvements were partially offset
by the impact of lower sales volume, a reduction in selling prices and some
curtailment of manufacturing schedules. Swift also recognized a benefit
curtailment gain of $3.4 million in the current quarter related to the
curtailment of postretirement benefits for employees not retired as of December
31, 2001 compared to a gain of $2.4 million recognized in December 2000 quarter
related to benefit curtailment at the Erwin facility.

Klopman International Klopman International's operating income in the first six
months of fiscal 2002 decreased $3.5 million to $2.0 million as compared to the
first six months of fiscal 2001 operating income of $5.5 million. The decrease
principally reflects $2.1 million related to the impact of lower selling prices
and changes in product mix and $1.2 million related to the decrease in sales
volume.

Home Fashion Fabrics Home Fashion Fabrics reported an operating loss for the
first six months of fiscal 2002 of $1.4 million as compared to an operating loss
for the first six months of fiscal 2001 of $2.4 million. Excluding the costs
associated with the Fiscal 2001 Cost Reduction and Loss Avoidance Initiatives,
Home Fashion Fabrics' operating loss for the first six months of fiscal 2002
would have been $0.5 million. The decrease in operating loss was due to lower
fixed costs as a result of the Fiscal 2001 Cost Reduction and Loss Avoidance
Initiatives.

Corporate The corporate segment reported an operating loss for the first six
months of fiscal 2002 of $2.0 million as compared to an operating loss for the
first six months of fiscal 2001 of $0.9 million. The increase in the operating
loss is primarily due to financial consultant expenses incurred in the first
quarter of fiscal 2002 prior to the bankruptcy filing. The corporate segment's
operating income (loss) typically represents the administrative expenses from
the Company's various holding companies.

Income from Associated Companies

Income from associated companies was $4.2 million in the first six months of
fiscal 2002 as compared to $3.7 million in the first six months of fiscal 2001.
The income represents amounts from several joint venture interests that
manufacture and sell denim products.

Interest Expense

Interest expense was $22.6 million for the first six months of fiscal 2002
compared to $31.8 million for the first six months of fiscal 2001. The decrease
in interest expense was primarily due to the discontinuation of the Subordinated
Notes interest accrual as of the Filing Date as well as lower prime and LIBOR
base rates in the first six months of fiscal 2002 as compared to the first six
months of 2001. The average interest rate paid by the Company on its bank debt,
excluding the Subordinated Notes, in the first six months of fiscal 2002 was
6.0% per annum as compared to 9.4% per annum in the first six months of fiscal
2001.

Income Taxes

The Company's overall tax rate differed from the statutory rate principally due
to the nonrecognition of the U.S. tax benefits on the domestic net operating
loss caryforwards. The result is an overall

                                       11

<PAGE>

tax expense rate which is higher than the statutory rate.

The Job Creation and Worker Compensation Act of 2002 became effective on March
9, 2002 and provided a 5 year carryback for net operating losses incurred in tax
years ending in 2001 and 2002. As a result the Company carried back net
operating losses from the year ended September 29, 2001 and recovered $1.2
million in federal income taxes.

Net Income (Loss) and Net Income (Loss) Per Share

The net loss for the first six months of fiscal 2002 was $21.1 million or $1.76
per common share compared to a net loss for the first six months of fiscal 2001
of $0.3 million or $.02 per common share. Excluding the Fiscal 2001 Cost
Reduction and Loss Avoidance Initiatives, the Fiscal 2000 Strategic Initiatives,
and reorganization items as a result of the Chapter 11 Filings (see "Bankruptcy
Filing" above), the Company's net loss for the first six months of fiscal 2002
would have been $8.5 million or $.71 per common share. Excluding the Fiscal 2000
Strategic Initiatives, the Company's net income for the first six months of
fiscal 2001 would have been $3.0 million or $.25 per common share.

Order Backlog

The Company's order backlog at March 30, 2002 was $138.3 million, a 23.8%
decrease from the March 31, 2001 backlog of $181.5 million. The decline in order
backlog was due to lower demand as a result of the difficult domestic retail
environment, as well as decreased visibility due to shortened lead times. Over
the past several years, many apparel manufacturers, including many of the
Company's customers, have modified their purchasing procedures and have
shortened lead times from order to delivery. Accordingly, the Company believes
that order backlogs may not be as meaningful as they have in the past with
regard to the Company's future sales.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As previously discussed, the Company and each of its domestic subsidiaries filed
voluntary petitions for reorganization under Chapter 11 of Title 11 of the
Bankruptcy Code. The matters described under this caption "Liquidity and Capital
Resources," to the extent that they relate to future events or expectations, may
be significantly affected by the Chapter 11 Filings. Such proceedings will
involve, or result in, various restrictions on the Debtors' activities,
limitations on financing, the need to obtain Bankruptcy Court approval for
various matters and uncertainty as to relationships with vendors, suppliers,
customers and others with whom the Debtors may conduct or seek to conduct
business.

The Company and its subsidiaries had cash and cash equivalents totaling $28.4
million and $14.2 million at March 30, 2002 and March 31, 2001, respectively. As
a result of the Chapter 11 Filings, the

                                       12

<PAGE>

Company's ability to borrow under its Senior Credit Facility (as defined below)
was frozen and replaced with the Company's DIP Financing Agreement (as defined
below). As of March 30, 2002, the Company's borrowing availability under its DIP
Financing Agreement was $90.2 million. As of March 30, 2002, the Company's
Canadian operations also had a total of U.S. $6.4 million of revolving credit
borrowing availability under the Canadian Loan Agreement (as defined below).

During the March quarter 2002, the Company primarily utilized its available cash
and revolving credit borrowings under its Senior Credit Facility until the
Chapter 11 Filings and under its DIP Financing Agreement thereafter to fund the
Company's operating and investing requirements.

During the March quarter 2002, Klopman International used existing cash balances
and borrowings under its credit agreements to complete a capital reduction of
$20.2 million with its European parent holding company. In April 2002, $19.5
million was transferred from the Company's European holding company to the
Company in the United States. The Company then utilized the cash to repay its
$7.4 million outstanding balance under its DIP Financing Agreement (as defined
below) as well as repay $5.0 million, $4.2 million, and $2.9 million of the
Company's pre-petition revolving line of credit, Term Loan B, and Term Loan C
borrowings, respectively under the pre-petition Senior Credit Facility (as
defined below).

Debtor-in-Possession Financing Agreement

Under the terms of the final DIP financing agreement (the "DIP Financing
Agreement") among the company and the Debtor subsidiaries and First Union
National Bank (the "Agent") and Wachovia Securities, Inc., the Company, as
borrower, may make revolving credit borrowings (including up to $15 million for
post-petition letters of credit) in an amount not exceeding the lesser of $100
million or the Borrowing Base (as defined in the DIP Financing Agreement). The
DIP Financing Agreement will terminate and the borrowings thereunder will be due
and payable upon the earliest of (i) August 19, 2003, (ii) the date of the
substantial consummation of a plan of reorganization that is confirmed pursuant
to an order by the Bankruptcy Court and (iii) the acceleration of the revolving
credit loans made by any of the banks who are a party to the DIP Financing
Agreement and the termination of the total commitment under the DIP Financing
Agreement. Amounts borrowed under the DIP Financing Agreement bear interest at
the rate per annum at the Company's option, of either (i) (a) the higher of the
prime rate or the federal funds rate plus .50% plus (b) a margin of 2.00% or
(ii) LIBOR plus a margin of 3.25%. There is an unused commitment fee of (A) at
such time as First Union National Bank is no longer the sole bank, at the rate
of (i) .75% per annum on the average daily unused total commitment at all times
during which the average total commitment usage is less than 25% of the total
commitment and

                                       13

<PAGE>

(ii) .5% per annum on the average daily unused total commitment at all times
during which the average total commitment usage is more than or equal to 25% of
the total commitment; or (B) at all times that First Union National Bank is the
sole bank, at a rate of .50% per annum on the average daily unused total
commitment. There are letter of credit fees payable to the Agent equal to LIBOR
plus 3.25% on the daily average letters of credit outstanding and to a fronting
bank, its customary fees plus .25% for each letter of credit issued by such
fronting bank.

Borrowings under the DIP Financing Agreement are guaranteed by each of the
Debtor subsidiaries. In general, such borrowings constitute allowed
super-priority administrative expense claims, and are secured by (i) a perfected
first priority lien pursuant to Section 364(c)(2) of the Code, upon all property
of the Company and the Debtor subsidiaries that was not subject to a valid,
perfected and non-avoidable lien on the Filing Date, (ii) a perfected junior
lien, pursuant to Section 364(c)(3) of the Code upon all property of the Company
and the Debotr subsidiaries already subject to valid, perfected, non-avoidable
liens, and (iii) a perfected first priority senior priming lien, pursuant to
Section 364(d)(1) of the Code, upon all property of the Company and the Debtor
subsidiaries already subject to a lien that presently secures the Company's and
the Debtor subsidiaries' pre-petition indebtedness under the existing
pre-petition credit agreement , whether created prior to or after the Filing
Date (subject to certain specific existing or subsequently perfected liens).
This security interest is subject to certain explicit exceptions.

The DIP Financing Agreement contains covenants restricting the Company and the
Guarantors from consolidating or merging with and into another person, disposing
of assets, incurring additional indebtedness and guarantees, creating liens and
encumbrances on properties, modifying its or their business, making capital
expenditures in excess of $22.5 million through the maturity date or $15.2
million during any 12 month period, declaring and paying dividends, making
investments, loans or advances, and creating super-priority claims. There are
certain limitations on affiliate transactions and on costs and expenses incurred
in connection with the closing of production facilities. The DIP Financing
Agreement also requires the Company and the Debtor subsidiaries to achieve
certain levels of EBITDA (as defined) as specified therein. The DIP Financing
Agreement also provides for the mandatory prepayment of all or a portion of
outstanding borrowings upon repatriation of funds from foreign subsidiaries or
the sale of assets, or in the event outstanding loans exceed the Borrowing Base.

Pre-Petition Senior Credit Facility

On January 29, 1998 the Company entered into a new credit agreement (as amended,
the "Senior Credit Facility") with First Union National Bank, as agent and
lender, and, as of March 27, 1998, with a syndicate of lenders. The Senior
Credit Facility provides for (i) a revolving

                                       14

<PAGE>

line of credit under which the Company may borrow up to an amount (including
letters of credit up to an aggregate of $30.0 million) equal to the lesser of
$225.0 million or a borrowing base (comprised of eligible accounts receivable
and eligible inventory, as defined in the Senior Credit Facility), (ii) a term
loan in the principal amount of $155.0 million ("Term Loan B") and (iii) a term
loan in the principal amount of $110.0 million ("Term Loan C"). In July 1999,
the Company amended its Senior Credit Facility (the "July 1999 Amendment")
pursuant to which the Company, among other things, repaid $25 million principal
amount of its term loan balance using available borrowings under its revolving
line of credit and reduced the maximum amount of borrowings under the revolving
line of credit by $25 million to $200 million. The repayment of the Term Loan B
and Term Loan C principal balances ratably reduced the remaining quarterly
principal payments.

Under the Senior Credit Facility, the revolving line of credit expires on March
27, 2004 and the principal amount of (i) Term Loan B is repayable in quarterly
payments of $304,645 through March 27, 2004, three quarterly payments of
$28,636,594 and final amount of $24,303,053 on Term Loan B's maturity of April
2, 2005 and (ii) Term Loan C is repayable in quarterly payments of $216,111
through April 2, 2005, three quarterly payments of $20,098,295 and a final
amount of $17,024,140 on Term Loan C's maturity of April 1, 2006.

The Company's obligations under the Senior Credit Facility are secured by
substantially all of the assets of the Company and each of its domestic
subsidiaries (including a lien on all real property owned in the United States),
a pledge by the Company and each of its domestic subsidiaries of all the
outstanding capital stock of its respective domestic subsidiaries and a pledge
of 65% of the outstanding voting capital stock, and 100% of the outstanding
non-voting capital stock, of certain of its respective foreign subsidiaries. In
addition, payment of all obligations under the Senior Credit Facility is
guaranteed by each of the Company's domestic subsidiaries. Under the Senior
Credit Facility, the Company is required to make mandatory prepayments of
principal annually in an amount equal to 50% of Excess Cash Flow (as defined in
the Senior Credit Facility), and also in the event of certain dispositions of
assets or debt or equity issuances (all subject to certain exceptions) in an
amount equal to 100% of the net proceeds received by the Company therefrom.
Based on fiscal 2001 results, the Company was not required to make Excess Cash
Flow payment with respect to fiscal 2001.

As a result of the February 2001 funding of the Company's Canadian Loan
Agreement (as defined below), the Company repaid $12.7 million principal amount
of its U.S. term loan balance and reduced the maximum amount of borrowings under
its U.S. revolving line of credit by $12.3 million to $187.7 million. The
repayment of the Term Loan B and Term Loan C principal balances ratably reduced
the remaining quarterly principal payments. The reduction in the U.S. revolving
line of credit facility resulted in a write-off of $0.1 million of deferred

                                       15

<PAGE>

debt charges which is included in selling, general and administrative expenses
in the March quarter 2001.

As a result of the Chapter 11 Filings, the Company and the Debtor subsidiaries
are currently in default under the Senior Credit Facility. (See "Bankruptcy
Filing" above)

Pre-Petition Senior Subordinated Debt

In February 1998, the Company closed its private offering of $300.0 million
aggregate principal amount of 9 1/8% Senior Subordinated Notes Due 2008 (the
"Notes"). In May 1998, the Notes were exchanged for freely transferable
identical Notes registered under the Securities Act of 1933. Net proceeds from
the offering of $289.3 million (net of initial purchaser's discount and offering
expenses), were used to repay (i) $275.0 million principal amount of bridge
financing borrowings incurred to partially finance the acquisition of the
apparel fabrics business of Dominion Textile, Inc. on January 29, 1998 and (ii)
a portion of the outstanding amount under a revolving line of credit provided
for under the Senior Credit Facility (as defined herein). Interest on the Notes
is payable on March 1 and September 1 of each year.

In August 2000, the Company and its noteholders amended the indenture, dated
February 24, 1998 (the "Indenture"), entered into in connection with the Notes
to amend the definition of "Permitted Investment" in the Indenture to allow the
Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries (as defined in the Indenture) to make
additional investments (as defined in the Indenture) totaling $15 million at any
time outstanding in one or more joint ventures which conduct manufacturing
operations primarily in Mexico. This amendment was completed to allow the
Company sufficient flexibility in structuring its investment in the Swift
Denim-Hidalgo joint venture.

The Notes are general unsecured obligations of the Company, subordinated in
right of payment to all existing and future senior indebtedness of the Company
and its subsidiaries and senior in right of payment to any subordinated
indebtedness of the Company. The Notes are unconditionally guaranteed, on an
unsecured senior subordinated basis, by Galey & Lord Industries, Inc., Swift
Denim Services, Inc., G&L Service Company North America, Inc., Swift Textiles,
Inc., Galey & Lord Properties, Inc., Swift Denim Properties, Inc. and other
future direct and indirect domestic subsidiaries of the Company.

The Notes are subject to certain covenants, including, without limitation, those
limiting the Company and its subsidiaries' ability to incur indebtedness, pay
dividends, incur liens, transfer or sell assets, enter into transactions with
affiliates, issue or sell stock of restricted subsidiaries or merge or
consolidate the Company or its restricted subsidiaries.

                                       16

<PAGE>

As a result of the Chapter 11 Filings, the Company and the Debtor subsidiaries
are currently in default under the Notes and the Indenture. As of the Filing
Date, the Company discontinued its interest accrual on the Notes and wrote off
$7.7 million of deferred debt fees and the remaining discount on the Notes.

Canadian Loan Agreement

In February 2001, the Company's wholly owned Canadian subsidiary, Drummondville
Services Inc. ("Drummondville"), entered into a Loan Agreement (the "Canadian
Loan Agreement") with Congress Financial Corporation (Canada), as lender. The
Canadian Loan Agreement provides for (i) a revolving line of credit under which
Drummondville may borrow up to an amount equal to the lesser of U.S. $16.0
million or a borrowing base (comprised of eligible accounts receivable and
eligible inventory of Drummondville, as defined in the Canadian Loan Agreement),
and (ii) a term loan in the principal amount of U.S. $9.0 million.

Under the Canadian Loan Agreement, the revolving line of credit expires in
February 2004 and the principal amount of the term loan is repayable in equal
monthly installments of $229,500 CDN with the unpaid balance repayable in
February 2004; provided, however, that the revolving line of credit and the
maturity of the term loan may be extended at the option of Drummondville for up
to two additional one year periods subject to and in accordance with the terms
of the Canadian Loan Agreement. Under the Canadian Loan Agreement, the interest
rate on Drummondville's borrowings initially is fixed through the second quarter
of fiscal year 2001 (March quarter 2001) at a per annum rate, at Drummondville's
option, of either LIBOR plus 2.75% or the U.S. prime rate plus .75% (for
borrowings in U.S. dollars) or the Canadian prime rate plus 1.5% (for borrowings
in Canadian dollars). Thereafter, borrowings will bear interest at a per annum
rate, at Drummondville's option, of either (i) the U.S. prime rate plus 0%,
..25%, .50%, .75%, or 1.0% (for borrowings in U.S. dollars), (ii) the Canadian
prime rate plus .75%, 1.0%, 1.25%, 1.50%, or 1.75% (for borrowings in Canadian
dollars), or (iii) LIBOR plus 2.00%, 2.25%, 2.50%, 2.75% or 3.00%, all based on
Drummondville maintaining certain quarterly excess borrowing availability levels
under the revolving line of credit or Drummondville achieving certain fixed
charge coverage ratio levels (as set forth in the Canadian Loan Agreement).

Drummondville's obligations under the Canadian Loan Agreement are secured by all
of the assets of Drummondville. The Canadian Loan Agreement contains certain
covenants, including without limitation, those limiting Drummondville's ability
to incur indebtedness (other than incurring or paying certain intercompany
indebtedness), incur liens, sell or acquire assets or businesses, pay dividends,
make loans or advances or make certain investments. In addition, the Canadian
Loan Agreement requires Drummondville to maintain a certain level of tangible
net worth (as defined in the Canadian Loan Agreement).

Tax Matters

At March 30, 2002, the Company had outstanding net operating loss carryforwards
("NOLs") for U.S. federal tax purposes of approximately $138 million and state
tax purposes of approximately $121 million. The federal NOLs will expire in
years 2018-2021 if unused, and the state NOLs will expire in years 2003-2021 if
unused. In accordance with the Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.
109, "Accounting for Income Taxes," a valuation allowance of $28.2 million
related to domestic operating income losses has been established since it is
more likely than not that some portion of the deferred tax asset will not be
realized. This review, along with the timing of the reversal of its temporary
differences and the expiration dates of the NOLs, were also considered in
reaching this conclusion.

The Job Creation and Worker Compensation Act of 2002 became effective on March
9, 2002 and provided a 5 year carryback for net operating losses incurred in tax
years ending in 2001 and 2002. As a result the Company carried back net
operating losses from the year ended September 29, 2001 and recovered $1.2
million in federal income taxes.

Adequacy of Capital Resources

As discussed above, the Company and the Debtor subsidiaries are operating their
businesses as debtors-in-possession under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code. In
addition to the cash requirements necessary to fund ongoing operations, the
Company anticipates that it will incur significant professional fees and other
restructuring costs in connection with the Chapter 11 Filings and the
restructuring of its business operations. As a result of the uncertainty
surrounding the Company's current circumstances, it is difficult to predict the
Company's actual liquidity needs and sources at this time. However, based on
current and anticipated levels of operations, and efforts to effectively manage
working capital, the Company anticipates that its cash flow from operations
together with cash on hand, cash generated from asset sales, and amounts
available under the DIP Financing Agreements, the Canadian Loan Agreement and
certain other foreign bank loans (entered into by the non-Debtor subsidiaries),
will be adequate to meet its anticipated cash requirements during the pendency
of the Chapter 11 Filings.

In the event that cash flows and available borrowings under the DIP Financing
Agreement, the Canadian Loan Agreement and other foreign bank loans are not
sufficient to meet future cash requirements, the Company may be required to
reduce planned capital expenditures, sell assets or seek additional financing.
The Company can provide no assurance that reductions in planned capital
expenditures or proceeds from asset sales would be sufficient to cover
shortfalls in available cash or that additional financing would be available or,
if available, offered on acceptable terms.

As a result of the Chapter 11 Filings, the Company's access to additional
financing is, and for the foreseeable future will likely continue to be, very
limited. The Company's long-term liquidity requirements and the adequacy of the
Company's capital resources are difficult to predict at this time, and
ultimately cannot be determined until a plan of reorganization has been
developed and confirmed by the Bankruptcy Court in connection with the Chapter
11 Filings.

Other

The Company expects to spend approximately $10.1 million for capital
expenditures in fiscal 2002, of which $3.7 million was spent in the first six
months of fiscal 2002. The Company anticipates that approximately 15% of the
forecasted capital expenditures will be used to increase the Company's capacity
while the remaining 85% will be used to maintain existing capacity.

Euro Conversion

On January 1, 1999, eleven of the fifteen member countries of the European Union
(the "Participating Countries") established fixed conversion rates between their
existing sovereign currencies ("legacy currencies") and the Euro. Between
January 1, 1999 and December 31, 2001, the Euro was used solely for non-cash
transactions. During that time period, the Euro traded on currency exchanges and
was the basis of valuing legacy currencies which continued to be legal tender.
Beginning January 1, 2002, the participating countries began issuing new
Euro-denominated bills and coins for use in cash transactions, and no later than
July 1, 2002, will withdraw all bills and coins denominated in the legacy
currencies. The legacy currencies will then no longer be legal tender for any
transactions.

The Company's European operations export the majority of its sales to countries
that are Participating Countries. As the European pricing policy has
historically been based on local currencies, the Company believes that as a
result of the Euro conversion the uncertainty of the effect of exchange rate
fluctuations will be greatly reduced. In addition, the Company's principal
competitors are also located within the Participating Countries. The Company
believes that the conversion to the Euro will eliminate much of the advantage or
disadvantage coming from exchange rate fluctuation resulting from transactions
involving legacy currencies in Participating Countries. Accordingly,
competitiveness will be solely based on price, quality and service. While the
Company believes the increased competitiveness based on these factors will
provide the Company with a strategic advantage over smaller local companies, it
cannot assess the magnitude of this impact on its operations.

As contemplated by the Company's Euro conversion plan, invoicing of products in
both local currencies and the Euro began January 1, 1999. The conversion of the
Company's financial reporting and information

                                       19

systems was completed during the Company's 2001 fiscal year. The costs related
to the conversion were not material to the Company's operating results or
liquidity.

IMPACT OF RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

In June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statements of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 141, "Business Combinations," ("FAS 141") and
No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets" ("FAS 142"). For all business
combinations initiated after June 30, 2001, FAS 141 eliminates the
pooling-of-interests method of accounting and requires the purchase method of
accounting, including revised recognition criteria for intangible assets other
than goodwill. Under FAS 142, which is effective for years beginning after
December 15, 2001, the Company's fiscal year 2003, goodwill and indefinite lived
intangible assets are no longer amortized but are reviewed annually, or more
frequently if impairment indicators arise, for impairment. Intangible assets
that have finite lives will continue to be amortized over their useful lives and
reviewed for impairment in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for
Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed of," ("FAS 121"). The Company has not yet
determined what the effect of FAS 142 will be on the earnings and financial
position of the Company.

In June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statements of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 143, "Accounting for Asset Retirement
Obligations" ("FAS 143"), which is effective for years beginning after June 15,
2002, the Company's fiscal year 2003. FAS 143 addresses legal obligations
associated with the retirement of tangible long-lived assets that result from
the acquisition, construction, development or normal operation of a long-lived
asset. The standard requires that the fair value of a liability for an asset
retirement obligation be recognized in the period in which it is incurred if a
reasonable estimate of fair value can be made. Any associated asset retirement
costs are to be capitalized as part of the carrying amount of the long-lived
asset and expensed over the life of the asset. The Company has not yet
determined what the effect of FAS 143 will be on the earnings and financial
position of the Company.

In August 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or
Disposal of Long-Lived Assets" ("FAS 144"), which is effective for fiscal years
beginning after December 15, 2001, the Company's fiscal year 2003. FAS 144
clarifies accounting and reporting for assets held for sale, scheduled for
abandonment or other disposal, and recognition of impairment loss related to the
carrying value of long-lived assets. The Company has not yet determined what the
effect of FAS 144 will be on earnings and financial position of the Company.
