NOTE A - 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 the Filing Date, 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 Wachovia Bank, National
Association (formerly known as 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 of up
to $30 million. On March 19, 2002, the Bankruptcy Court entered a final order approving the entire $100 million DIP financing. Effective September 24, 2002, the Company exercised its right, as permitted under the DIP Financing Agreement (as defined
below), to permanently reduce such maximum amount of revolving credit borrowings from $100 million to $75 million. Effective July 25, 2003, the Company further exercised its right, as permitted under the DIP Financing Agreement, to permanently
reduce such maximum amount of revolving credit borrowings from $75 million to $50 million.



Under the terms of the final DIP financing agreement (as amended, the DIP Financing Agreement), the Company, as borrower, may make revolving credit borrowings (including up to $15 million for post-petition
letters of credit which was reduced to $10 million by the Financing Extension, as defined below) in an amount not exceeding the lesser of $100 million (effective September 24, 2002, such amount was permanently reduced to $75 million and effective
July 25, 2003, it was permanently reduced to $50 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)
February 23, 2004, (ii) the date of the substantial consummation of a plan of reorganization that is confirmed pursuant to an order by the Bankruptcy Court or (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 pursuant to 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 either (A) at such time as Wachovia 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 (ii) .50% 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 Wachovia 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 Bankruptcy 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 Bankruptcy Code upon all property of the Company and the Debtor 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 Bankruptcy 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 Debtor subsidiaries 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. At December 27, 2003, the Company was in compliance with the covenants of the DIP Financing Agreement.



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.

NOTE A - Bankruptcy Filing (Continued)



The DIP Financing Agreement has been amended six times (collectively, the Financing Extension). It is
currently set to expire on February 23, 2004. There can be no assurance that the DIP Financing Agreement will be further extended, if necessary. The Company has no current commitments or arrangements for additional debtor-in-possession financing
and, if the DIP Financing Agreement is not extended, there can be no assurance that replacement debtor-in-possession financing will be available on acceptable terms (or that any such financing will be approved by the Bankruptcy Court) or at all.



The Financing Extension allows the Company to have a maximum aggregate
principal amount of loans and letters of credit outstanding of $25 million and reduces the maximum aggregate amount available for letters of credit from $15 million to $10 million. As part of the Financing Extension, among other things, upon the
sale of the capital stock of the entities which constitute Klopman and certain intellectual property rights thereof for no less than  22.3 million, the Net Proceeds (as defined in the Financing Extension) from such sale will be repatriated to
the Company and the Company will apply such repatriated funds in accordance with the DIP Financing Agreement and any orders approving the extension thereof.



The DIP Financing Agreement was also modified to provide for cash collateral for letters of credit from the proceeds of foreign repatriations, after the repayment of any
outstanding loans under the DIP Financing Agreement.



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.



By orders dated June 6, 2002, and July 24, 2002, the Bankruptcy Court authorized the implementation of various employee programs for the Debtors. These programs include:



Stay Bonus and Emergence Plans  These plans
provide for payments totaling $5.2 million for 62 employees including executive officers. Payments under the Stay Bonus Plan are in four equal payments beginning in August 2002 and ending the later of June 2003 or upon emergence. The first three
payments under the Stay Bonus Plan have been made to qualifying employees. The Emergence Plan provides for a single payment upon emergence.

NOTE A - Bankruptcy Filing (Continued)



Enhanced Severance Program  Pursuant to this program, certain employees, including
executive officers, are entitled to enhanced severance payments under certain terms and conditions.



Discretionary Transition Payment Plan  This plan allows the Debtors to offer incentives to certain employees during a transition period at
the end of which such employees would be terminated, in the event such incentives become necessary.



Discretionary Retention Pool  This plan provides the Chief Executive Officer discretionary authority to offer incentives to employees
(including new employees) not otherwise participating in other portions of the program.



Performance Incentive Plan  The Debtors filed a motion for approval of a proposed performance incentive plan, pursuant to which certain employees, including executive officers, would be entitled to an
additional bonus in the event certain personal and/or company performance goals were achieved. The Debtors voluntarily withdrew that motion without prejudice to their right to seek the relief requested therein at a later date.



The Debtors have also received authority to conduct certain other transactions that might be
considered outside the ordinary course of business. The Debtors have sought and received authority to pay certain pre-petition personal and property taxes, to sell certain identified assets, to enter into certain financing agreements,
and to retain a real estate professional to market and sell certain unused properties. Among other things, the Debtors have received authority to sell Klopman. This sale has not closed as of the date hereof. See Note C  Discontinued
Operations.



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 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. Under the Bankruptcy Code, the Debtors must assume, assume and assign, or reject
all unexpired leases of non-residential real property for which a Debtor is lessee within 60 days from the Filing Date. By orders dated April 29, 2002, August 16, 2002, December 11, 2002, April 17, 2003, and August 13, 2003, and December 17, 2003,
the Bankruptcy Court extended this deadline up through and including April 12, 2004. The Bankruptcy Court has entered several orders collectively approving the rejection of certain identified executory contracts and unexpired leases. The Debtors
reserve their right to continue, to the extent possible, reviewing their remaining executory contracts to determine which, if any, they will reject. The Debtors have

proposed treatment for each such executory contract and unexpired lease as part of the proposed plan of reorganization, but that proposed treatment may
change if the proposed plan of reorganization (described below) is not consummated. If the proposed plan is not consummated, the Debtors will need to re-examine the potential treatment of each executory contract and unexpired lease. As such, 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 under such alternative plan.



The Bankruptcy Court established October 1, 2002 as the bar date as of which all
claimants were required to submit and characterize claims against the Debtors. The Debtors are currently in the process of reviewing the claims that were filed against the Company. The ultimate amount of the claims allowed by the Court against the
Company could be significantly different than the amount of the liabilities recorded by the Company.



On or about April 4, 2003, the Official Committee of General Unsecured Creditors (the Committee) filed a motion (the Examiner Motion) seeking the appointment of an examiner in the Debtors
cases pursuant to Sections 1104(c)(1), 1104(c)(2) and 105(a) of the Bankruptcy Code and Bankruptcy Rules 2007.1 and 9014, and seeking an injunction prohibiting the Debtors from filing a Plan for at least 90 days from the appointment of such
examiner. Both the Debtors and the agent for the Debtors pre-petition secured lenders filed objections to this motion, objecting to the relief requested therein and the purported factual predicate therefore. The Committee has withdrawn the
Examiner Motion.



On or around June 26, 2003, the Company filed a motion for
authority to enter into an engagement agreement (the Engagement Agreement) with Alvarez & Marsal, Inc. (A&M). A&M will supplement existing management with professionals led by Mr. Peter A. Briggs, a managing
director at A&M. Mr. Briggs will serve as chief restructuring officer (CRO) and report to Arthur C. Wiener, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of the Company. Mr. Joseph A. Bondi and certain additional officers (together, the
Additional Officers) will assist the CRO. On or about June 27, 2003, the Bankruptcy Court entered an order authorizing the Company, on an interim basis and as amended thereby, to enter into the Engagement Agreement, and to retain the CRO
and Additional Officers. On or about July 18, 2003, the Bankruptcy Court entered a final order approving the retention of A&M and the CRO and Additional Officers.



The consummation of a plan or plans of reorganization 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.



A plan could also involve the sale of the Debtors assets and/or stock. It is also
possible that a sale of the Debtors assets and/or stock could be accomplished outside a plan of reorganization. Pursuant to the Bankruptcy Code, the Debtors had 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. As of the date hereof, the Bankruptcy Court had entered eight orders collectively extending the Debtors exclusive right to file a plan through and including November 15, 2003, and extending the Debtors
exclusive right to solicit acceptances of such Plan through and including February 4, 2004. Both of these exclusivity periods may be further extended by the Bankruptcy Court for cause.



On December 18, 2003, the Debtors filed a proposed second amended plan (as amended, modified, and or supplemented, the Plan),
along with a proposed second amended disclosure statement (Disclosure Statement) by which they intend to solicit acceptances to such Plan. On December 19, 2003, the Bankruptcy Court entered an order, among other things, approving the
Disclosure Statement, and authorizing the Debtors to solicit votes on the Plan thereby. The Bankruptcy Court further established January 20, 2004 as both the deadline for voting on the Plan and the deadline to file objections, if any, to the Plan.
On January 15, 2004, the Debtors filed a Modified Second Amended Plan and a Supplement thereto, and on February 2, 2004, filed a Third Amended Plan. Following a hearing on February 9, 2004, the Bankruptcy Court entered an order, among other things,
confirming the Plan.



Some of the key terms of the proposed Plan are:



| |  | The Companys senior secured debtholders would exchange approximately $300 million in pre-petition secured debt for a combination of cash, a secured note in the amount of $130
million and 99% of the outstanding equity of the emerging parent company;
| | - | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  | Exit financing of up to $70 million (as further described below) of which approximately $30 million would be drawn upon emergence;
| | - | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  | An available cash pool to satisfy a portion of the claims of the Debtors general unsecured creditors;
| | - | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  | Holders of the Companys $300 million subordinated senior notes would receive 1% of the outstanding equity of the emerging parent company and certain warrants to purchase up to
an aggregate of 10% of the common stock of the emerging parent company exercisable only upon the occurrence of certain events; and
| | - | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  | The Companys existing securities, including its outstanding capital stock, will be cancelled.
| | - | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



On January 28, 2004, the Debtors received a commitment from General Electric Capital Corporation (GE Capital) to provide the
Company with a post-emergence revolving credit facility (the Exit Credit Facility). Pursuant to the terms of the Exit Credit Facility, GE Capital, and certain other lenders, would provide to the Company a $70 million revolving credit
facility, including a $30 million Letter of Credit subfacility, to be guaranteed by all of the Companys domestic subsidiaries (the Guarantors). The Company would be entitled to borrow up to the lesser of $70 million and a
Borrowing Base, calculated based

on the Companys and the Guarantors inventory and accounts receivable, and the Company would agree to maintain a Minimum Excess
Availability against the Borrowing Base of $20 million at closing and $10 million thereafter. The loans made, and all other obligations of the Company and the Guarantors under the Exit Credit Facility would be secured by a first priority
security interest in all of the Guarantors existing and after acquired working capital assets, and a second priority security interest in all of the Guarantors equipment, fixtures, and real property. The term of the Exit Credit Facility
would be 48 months, and the loans made thereunder would incur interest at a non-default rate of, at the Companys request, either (i) a fixed rate for periods of one, two, or three-month reserve adjusted LIBOR plus the Applicable
Margins, or (ii) a floating rate at the Index Rate (higher of Prime or 50 basis points over Fed Funds) plus the Applicable Margins. The Applicable Margins, as well as letter of credit fees and an unused
facility fee, would be determined based on the Companys usage of the facility. In addition, the Company has agreed to pay a prepayment fee if the revolver commitment is voluntarily reduced in excess of $20 million or terminated on or prior to
the second anniversary of the closing date. GE Capitals obligation to provide the Exit Credit Facility pursuant to the commitment is subject to the execution of a definitive loan agreement and related documents and certain customary conditions
and there can be no assurance that such loan agreement and related documents will be entered into or that alternative post-emergence financing can be obtained from another lender on as favorable terms or at all.



Nothing contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q is intended to be, nor should it be
construed as, a solicitation for a vote on the proposed Plan, which can only occur based on the official disclosure statement package, and all terms and provisions hereof are qualified in their entirety by reference to the Plan.



If the Debtors fail to consummate the Plan, any party-in-interest, including a creditor, an
equity holder, a committee of creditors or equity holders, or an indenture trustee, may be entitled to file its own plan of reorganization for the Debtors. Confirmation of a plan of reorganization 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 of reorganization 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, if, among other things, no claim
or interest receives or retains any property under the plan until each holder of a claim senior to such 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,

NOTE A - Bankruptcy Filing (Continued)



there can be no assurance that an alternative plan will be confirmed by the Bankruptcy Court, or that any such plan will be consummated.



Although the Debtors hope to consummate the Plan, it is still 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.



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 accompanying 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 consummate the Plan, or
any alternative plan which may be proposed), its ability, if necessary, to extend the term and maturity of the DIP Financing Agreement beyond February 23, 2004 or, if necessary, find alternative debtor-in-possession financing, its ability to comply
with the DIP Financing Agreement or any alternative financing arrangement, 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 accompanying 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 addition, the Plan does, and an alternative plan could, materially change the amounts reported in the Companys financial statements. The financial statements do not give effect to adjustments of the carrying
value of assets or liabilities, the effects of any changes that may be made to the capital accounts or the effect on results of operations that might be necessary as a consequence of a plan of reorganization.

NOTE A - Bankruptcy Filing (Continued)



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 pre-petition 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 a consummated plan.



The principal categories of obligations classified as liabilities subject to
compromise under the Chapter 11 Filings as of December 27, 2003, December 28, 2002 and September 27, 2003 are identified below (in thousands):

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. The Company recognized a charge of $4.1 million and $3.4 million associated with the Chapter 11 Filings for the three months ended December 27, 2003 and December 28, 2002, respectively. Of these charges, $4.1 million and $1.8 million
for the three months ended December 27, 2003 and December 28, 2002, respectively, were for fees payable to professionals retained to assist with the Chapter 11 Filings and $1.6 million for the three months ended December 28, 2002, was related to key
employee retention programs.

NOTE B - Basis of Presentation



The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. Investments in affiliates in
which the Company owns 20 to 50 percent of the voting stock are accounted for using the equity method. Intercompany items have been eliminated in consolidation. The Company classified the Klopman segment as held for sale in the fourth quarter of
fiscal 2003, and accordingly, the operating results and assets and liabilities for this segment have been reported as a discontinued operation for all periods presented herein. See Note C  Discontinued Operations for further

NOTE C - Discontinued Operations



In August 2002, the Company retained Rothschild Italia S.P.A., a financial advisor, to aid in the potential sale of its Klopman business. In
July 2003, Dominion Textile International B.V., an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (Dominion) and an investment group led by BS Private Equity (the Purchaser) entered into a Purchase Agreement (the
Purchase Agreement), pursuant to which the Company, through Dominion, agreed to sell to the Purchaser (the Sale Transaction) all of Klopman (pursuant to a sale of all or substantially all of the capital stock of each
subsidiary which together constitute Klopman), for a net purchase price of  22.4 million (before deduction for fees, costs and expenses). The consummation of the Sale Transaction was subject to a number of conditions, including, among other
things, Bankruptcy Court approval, regulatory approval and satisfactory completion of environmental due diligence and appropriate environmental surveys. In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2003, the Company resolved all substantive issues necessary to
dispose of this business segment and the Company classified the Klopman segment as held for sale at that time.



On November 21, 2003 the Company received approval from the United States Bankruptcy Court to complete the sale of Klopman to the Purchaser. The sale closed on February 10, 2004, however, approximately  2.0
million of the proceeds have been placed in escrow pending the receipt of consent of the Tunisia authorities related to the sale of the manufacturing subsidiary located in Tunisia. The Company expects to receive the pending consent of the Tunisia
authorities shortly, at which time the proceeds in escrow will be released to the Company. If the consent is not obtained by May 31, 2004, the escrow will be returned to the Purchaser and the Purchaser shall have the right to claim an additional
amount of  2.0 million against a bank guarantee provided by the Company to secure any future tax claims and the Tunisian subsidiary closing.



The results of operations and statement of financial position for this segment have been reported as a discontinued operation for all periods presented herein.



In connection with this reclassification to a discontinued operation, the
Klopman segment was adjusted from its carrying value of $74.1 million to its estimated fair value of $25.5 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2003. The resulting $48.6 million loss was included in the Income (loss) from discontinued
operations caption in the Consolidated Statement of Operations for the fiscal year ended September 27, 2003 and as an adjustment to Current assets of discontinued operations in the Consolidated Balance Sheet at September 27, 2003.
As of December 27, 2003, the Klopman segments carrying value, excluding the fair value adjustment calculated at September 27, 2003, was $73.4 million and its estimated fair value was determined to be $27.7 million resulting in a $45.7 million
fair value adjustment at December 27, 2003. The $2.9 million gain in the fair value adjustment which occurred in the December 2003 quarter is included in the Income from discontinued operations caption in the Consolidated Statement of
Operations for the three months ended December 27, 2003 and as an adjustment to Current assets of discontinued operations in the Consolidated Balance Sheet at December 27, 2003. The change in the fair value adjustment is primarily
attributable to the favorable effect

of the change in foreign currency exchange rates between the EURO and the U.S. dollar from September 27, 2003 to December 27, 2003 in relation to the
expected proceeds in addition to the effect of the Klopman segments December 2003 quarter operating results. The fair value adjustments are shown as a reduction to property, plant and equipment in the table below.



In accordance with EITF 87-24, the Company allocated $304,000 and $322,000 for the three
months ended December 27, 2003 and December 28, 2002, respectively, of interest expense related to the Senior Credit Facility to discontinued operations which was added to interest directly incurred by the Klopman segment.



Klopmans discontinued operations are reflected net of taxes generated by the profitable
operations in the various jurisdictions in which it operated. A tax benefit on the loss from the expected sale of Klopman, however, is not recorded due to the fact that there are no taxing jurisdictions in which the loss would be realized and offset
or reduce taxable income of either Klopman or its shareholder.

NOTE D  Reconfiguration of
Drummondville, Quebec Production Facility



On December 11, 2003 (the first
quarter of fiscal 2004), the Company announced the reconfiguration of its Swift Denim production facility in Drummondville, Quebec. Under the reconfiguration, weaving and finishing of denim in this facility is anticipated to cease in April 2004. The
Drummondville facility will continue to produce yarn for other Swift facilities. As a result of the decision to cease denim fabric production at this location, the Company evaluated the ongoing value of the plant and equipment at the Drummondville
facility. Based on this evaluation, the Company determined that long-lived assets with a carrying amount of $26.8 million were no longer recoverable and were impaired resulting in the recognition of a $13.7 million impairment loss in the current
quarter for the difference between the carrying amount of the long-lived assets and their fair value. The fair value of these assets was estimated based on expected future cash flows discounted at the risk-free interest rate of 6.5%.

NOTE D - Reconfiguration of Drummondville,
Quebec Production Facility (Continued)



The reconfiguration will result in the termination of approximately 550 employees in Drummondville. After the
reconfiguration, the facility will employ approximately 215 individuals in yarn production and related supporting functions. In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 146, Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or
Disposal Activities (FAS 146), Swift Denim recorded a severance accrual of $0.4 million in the December quarter 2003, however, no severance payments have yet been made. The Company is anticipating an additional $5.0 million of
costs related to reconfiguring the plant primarily for employee termination benefits over the next four months.



NOTE E - Adoption of New Accounting Standard



Effective as of the beginning of the Companys fiscal 2003, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 142, Goodwill and Other
Intangible Assets (FAS 142). This new standard eliminated the amortization of goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite useful lives (collectively, the Intangible Assets) and required, instead, that these assets be
tested at least annually for impairment. In the year of adoption, FAS 142 also required that the Company perform an initial assessment of its reporting units to determine whether there was any indication that the Intangible Assets carrying value was
impaired. This transitional assessment was made by comparing the fair value of each reporting unit, as determined in accordance with the new standard, to its book value. To the extent the fair value of any reporting unit was less than its book
value, which would indicate that potential impairment of Intangible Assets exists, a second transitional test was required to determine the amount of impairment, if any.



For purposes of Intangible Assets impairment testing, FAS 142 requires that goodwill be assigned to one or more reporting units. The Company
assigned goodwill to the Swift Denim and Galey & Lord Apparel reporting units. In addition to goodwill, Swift Denim also owns several trademarks whose useful lives are considered to be indefinite.



The Company, with the assistance of an outside consultant, completed the initial transitional
assessment of its reporting units in the first quarter of fiscal 2003 and determined that potential impairment of Intangible Assets existed in both reporting units. During the second quarter of fiscal 2003, the Company completed its assessment and,
accordingly, the entire goodwill balance of $65.2 million ($0.8 million and $64.4 million at the Galey & Lord Apparel and Swift Denim reporting units, respectively) was impaired and $22.2 million of the recorded trademark (Swift Denim reporting
unit) was impaired.



In addition, upon adoption of FAS 142, the Company ceased
amortizing the remaining investment over its equity in the underlying net assets of its joint venture interests. However, equity method goodwill will continue to be reviewed in accordance with APB Opinion No. 18 The Equity Method of Accounting
for Investments in Common Stock. The Company concluded that no impairment of the equity method goodwill existed upon adoption or at December 27, 2003.

NOTE E - Adoption of New Accounting Standard
(Continued)



FAS 142 requires that an intangible asset not subject to amortization be tested for impairment annually, or more
frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate the asset might be impaired. If the carrying amount of an intangible asset exceeds its fair value, an impairment loss should be recognized in an amount equal to that excess and the adjusted
carrying amount of the intangible assets should be its new accounting basis. The Company determined that impairment indicators existed with respect to Swift Denim in the June quarter 2003 due to the further softening in the retail environment in
which Swift Denim operates. Accordingly, the fair value of the Swift Denim trademark was tested for impairment based on the expected value of future cash flows and, based on such testing, a non-cash impairment loss of $5.5 million was recorded on
the Swift Denim trademark in the June quarter 2003.

NOTE G - Long-Term Debt (Continued)



Pre-Petition Senior Credit Facility



On July 13, 1999, the Company amended its credit agreement, dated as of January 29, 1998 (the Senior Credit Facility), as
amended, with Wachovia Bank, National Association (formerly known as First Union National Bank), as agent and lender and its syndicate of lenders. The amendment became effective as of July 3, 1999 (the July 1999 Amendment). In August
2001, the Company amended the Senior Credit Facility (the August 2001 Amendment) which, among other things, replaced the Adjusted Leverage Ratio covenant (as defined in the August 2001 Amendment) with a minimum EBITDA covenant (as
defined in the August 2001 Amendment) until the Companys December quarter 2002, waived compliance by the Company with the Adjusted Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio (as defined in the August 2001 Amendment) until the Companys December quarter
2002 and modified the Companys covenant related to capital expenditures. The August 2001 Amendment also excludes, for covenant purposes, charges related to closure of facilities announced on July 26, 2001. The August 2001 Amendment also
increased the interest rate spread on all borrowings under the Companys revolving line of credit and term loans by 100 basis points for the remainder of the term of its Senior Credit Facility. On January 24, 2002, the Company amended its
Senior Credit Facility to provide for an overadvance of $10 million, none of which was drawn prior to the overadvance expiration on February 23, 2002.



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.



As a result of the February 2001 funding of the Companys Canadian Loan Agreement (as
defined below), the Company repaid $12.7 million in principal on 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 debt charges which is included in selling,
general and administrative expenses in the second quarter of fiscal 2001.



During the second quarter of fiscal 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 (which is a
wholly-owned subsidiary of the 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 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.

NOTE G - Long-Term Debt (Continued)



As a result of the Chapter 11 Filings, the Company and each of the Debtor subsidiaries are currently in default of
the Senior Credit Facility. See Note A  Bankruptcy Filing.



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 offerings 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. Interest on
the Notes is payable on March 1 and September 1 of each year.



On August 18,
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.



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. See Note A  Bankruptcy Filing.

NOTE G - Long-Term Debt (Continued)



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,
which was originally borrowed and denominated in Canadian dollars.



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.
Effective July 24, 2002, the term loan was converted to U.S. dollars repayable in equal monthly installments of U.S. $150,000 with the unpaid balance repayable in February 2004, unless extended. 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 1.50% (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 1.00% (for borrowings in U.S. dollars), (ii) the Canadian prime rate plus .75%, 1.00%, 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% (for borrowings in U.S.
dollars), 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).

NOTE G - Long-Term Debt (Continued)



As a result of the reconfiguration of the Drummondville, Quebec production facility (as discussed in Note D above),
on February 13, 2004, Drummondville amended the Canadian Loan Agreement, dated as of February 13, 2001, with Congress Financial Corporation (Canada), as lender. The amendment, among other things, extends the term of the present Canadian Loan
Agreement for a period of five months commencing on February 13, 2004 and terminating on July 13, 2004 with no further renewal periods. Subject to the terms and conditions of this agreement, the principal amount of the term loan will be repaid in
minimum monthly installments on a schedule as set forth in the amendment with the balance due on or prior to May 31, 2004. In addition, Drummondville covenants to make minimum repayments so as to permanently reduce the amount outstanding under the
revolving line of credit on a schedule as set forth in the amendment with the balance to be paid off prior to July 13, 2004.



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). At December 27, 2003, the Company was in
compliance with the covenants of the Canadian Loan Agreement.

Options to purchase 127,550 shares and
141,350 shares of common stock were outstanding during the three months ended December 27, 2003 and December 28, 2002, respectively, but were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share because the options exercise price was
greater than the average market price of the common shares. Options to purchase 766,999 and 777,699 shares of common stock were outstanding during the three months ended December 27, 2003 and December 28, 2002, respectively, but were not included in
the computation of diluted earnings per share pursuant to the contingent share provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 128, Earnings Per Share. Vesting of these options is contingent upon the market price of
common shares reaching certain target prices, which were greater than the average market price of the common shares.

NOTE I - Benefit Plans



The Company and its U.S. subsidiaries sponsor noncontributory defined benefit pension plans covering substantially all domestic employees.
The plans provide retirement benefits for all qualified salaried employees and qualified non-union wage employees based generally on years of service and average compensation. Retirement benefits for qualified union wage employees are based
generally on a flat dollar amount for each year of service. The Companys funding policy is to contribute annually the amount recommended by the plans actuary. Plan assets, which consist of common stocks, bonds and cash equivalents, are
maintained in trust accounts.



On September 20, 2001, the Company froze the
accrual of future retirement benefits under its U.S. defined benefit plans effective December 31, 2001. The resulting curtailment gain was offset by unamortized actuarial losses.



Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 87, Employers Accounting for Pensions, (FAS 87) requires
companies with any plans that have an unfunded accumulated benefit obligation to recognize an additional minimum pension liability, an intangible pension asset equal to the unrecognized prior service cost and if the additional liability required to
recognized exceeds unrecognized service cost, the excess shall be reported in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) as a separate component of equity. In accordance with FAS 87, the consolidated balance sheets at December 27, 2003 and
December 28, 2002 include an intangible pension asset of $2.3 million and $2.4 million, respectively, an additional minimum pension liability of $15.2 million and $11.7 million, respectively, and accumulated other comprehensive loss of $12.9 million
and $9.3 million, respectively.



The Company provides health care and life
insurance benefits to certain retired employees and their dependents. The plans are unfunded and approved claims are paid by the Company. The Companys cost is partially offset by retiree premium contributions. Effective December 31, 2001, the
Company curtailed benefits to employees who were not retired as of December 31, 2001.

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 carryforwards, tax rate differences on foreign transactions, differing treatment of certain items for tax purposes and
changes in the valuation allowance. The result for the three months ended December 27, 2003 is an overall tax benefit rate which is lower than the statutory rate; and the result for the three months ended December 28, 2002 has an overall tax expense
rate which is higher than the statutory rate.



At December 27, 2003, the
Company had outstanding net operating loss carryforwards (NOLs) for U.S. federal tax purposes of approximately $188 million and state tax purposes of approximately $194 million. The federal NOLs will expire in years 2018-2024, and the
state NOLs will expire in years 2004-2024. In accordance with the Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes, a valuation allowance of $69.3 million related to domestic and international operating
income losses has been established since it is more likely than not that some portion of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.



Included in the valuation allowance is a ($4.7) million adjustment that reflects the reversal of certain transactions recorded net of tax in accumulated other
comprehensive income (loss). An offsetting deferred tax asset of $4.7 million has been set up to track these amounts until such time as the transactions are closed and recognized for tax purposes.

NOTE L - Fiscal 2001 Cost Reduction and Loss Avoidance Initiatives



In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2001, the Company announced additional actions (the
Fiscal 2001 Cost Reduction and Loss Avoidance Initiatives) taken as a result of the very difficult business environment which the Company continued to operate in throughout fiscal 2001. The Companys goal in taking these actions was
future loss avoidance, cost reduction, production capacity rationalization and increased cash flow. The principal manufacturing initiatives included discontinuation of G&L Service Company, the Companys garment making operations in Mexico,
and the consolidation of its greige fabrics operations. The discontinuation of G&L Service Company included the closure of the Dimmit facilities in Piedras Negras, Mexico, the Alta Loma facilities in Monclova, Mexico and the Eagle Pass Warehouse
in Eagle Pass, Texas. The consolidation of the Companys greige fabrics operations included the closure of its Asheboro, North Carolina weaving facility and Caroleen, North Carolina spinning facility. In addition to the principal manufacturing
initiatives above, the Company also provided for the reduction of approximately 5% of its salaried overhead employees.



In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2001, the Company recorded $63.4 million before taxes of plant closing and impairment charges and $4.9 million before taxes of losses
related to completing garment customer orders all related to the Fiscal 2001 Cost Reduction and Loss Avoidance Initiatives. The components of the plant closing and impairment charges included $30.4 million for goodwill impairments, $20.3 million for
fixed asset impairments, $7.5 million for severance expense and $5.2 million for the write-off of leases and other exit costs.



Approximately 3,300 Mexican employees and 500 U.S. employees were terminated as a result of the Fiscal 2001 Cost Reduction and Loss Avoidance Initiatives. All production
at the affected facilities ceased in early September 2001 by which time substantially all the affected employees were terminated.



During fiscal 2002, the Company recorded a change in estimate that decreased the plant closing costs by $1.4 million, primarily related to leases, as well as, additional
fixed asset impairment charges of $0.9 million. In the first quarter of fiscal 2003, the Company recorded an additional change in estimate that decreased the plant closing costs by $0.2 million, also primarily related to leases.



The Company sold its Asheboro, North Carolina facility and related equipment as well as all
the G&L Service Company equipment in fiscal 2002. The Company expects that the sale of the remainder of the real estate and equipment in connection with the Fiscal 2001 Cost Reduction and Loss Avoidance Initiatives could take an additional 12
months or longer to complete.

accrual balance related to the Fiscal 2001 Cost Reduction and Loss Avoidance Initiatives outstanding at December 27, 2003, $0.9 million is included in liabilities subject to compromise. See Note A  Bankruptcy Filing.



NOTE M - Fiscal 2000 Strategic Initiatives



During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2000, the Company announced a series of strategic
initiatives (the Fiscal 2000 Strategic Initiatives) aimed at increasing the Companys competitiveness and profitability by reducing costs. The initiatives included completing a joint venture in Mexico, closing two of the
Companys plants, consolidating some operations, outsourcing certain yarn production and eliminating excess employees in certain operations. The cost of these initiatives was reflected in a plant closing and impairment charge totaling $62.8
million before taxes in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2000. The original components of the plant closing and impairment charge included $49.3 million for fixed asset write-offs, $10.0 million for severance expense and $3.5 million for the write-off
of leases and other exit costs. During fiscal 2001, the Company recorded a change in estimate for severance benefits that reduced the plant closing charge by $0.6 million. All production at the affected facilities ceased during the December quarter
of fiscal 2000 and substantially all of the 1,370 employees have been terminated. Severance payments were made in either a lump sum or over a maximum period of up to eighteen months.



During fiscal 2001, the Company sold a portion of the Erwin facility as well as substantially all of the equipment at the Erwin facility and
the Brighton facility. During fiscal 2002 and fiscal 2003, the Company recorded an additional fixed asset impairment charges related to the Erwin facility of $0.9 million and $0.2 million, respectively. During fiscal 2003, the Company also recorded
an additional change in estimate that reduced the plant closing costs by $0.2 million. The Company expects that the sale of the remaining real estate related to the Fiscal 2000 Strategic Initiatives could take an additional 12 months or longer to
complete.

The Company incurred run-out expenses totaling $0.2 million for the three months ended
December 27, 2003. These expenses, which include plant carrying costs and other costs, are included primarily in cost of sales in the consolidated statement of operations.



As a result of the employees terminated due to the Fiscal 2000 Strategic Initiatives, the Company recognized a net curtailment gain of $2.4
million in fiscal 2001 related to its defined benefit pension and post-retirement medical plans.



NOTE N - Segment Information



The
Companys operations are classified into two business segments: Galey & Lord Apparel and Swift Denim. The Company is principally organized around differences in products. The business segments are managed separately and distribute products
through different marketing channels. Galey & Lord Apparel manufactures and sells woven cotton and cotton blended apparel fabrics. Swift Denim manufactures and markets a wide variety of denim products for apparel and non-apparel uses.



The Company evaluates performance and allocates resources based on operating
income; therefore, certain expenses, principally net interest expense and income taxes, are excluded from the chief operating decision makers assessment of segment performance. Accordingly, such expenses have not been allocated to segment
results. The corporate segments operating income (loss) represents principally the administrative expenses from the Companys various holding companies. Additionally, the corporate segment assets consist primarily of corporate cash,
deferred bank charges and investments in and advances to associated companies.

NOTE O - Supplemental Condensed Consolidating Financial Information

NOTE P - Subsequent Events



On December 18, 2003, the Debtors filed a proposed second amended plan (as amended, modified, and or supplemented, the Plan),
along with a proposed second amended disclosure statement (Disclosure Statement) by which they intend to solicit acceptances to such Plan. On December 19, 2003, the Bankruptcy Court entered an order, among other things, approving the
Disclosure Statement, and authorizing the Debtors to solicit votes on the Plan thereby. The Bankruptcy Court further established January 20, 2004 as both the deadline for voting on the Plan and the deadline to file objections, if any, to the Plan.
On January 15, 2004, the Debtors filed a Modified Second Amended Plan and a Supplement thereto, and on February 2, 2004, filed a Third Amended Plan. Following a hearing on February 9, 2004, the Bankruptcy Court entered an order, among other things,
confirming the Plan.



Some of the key terms of the Plan are:



| |  | The Companys senior secured debtholders would exchange approximately $300 million in pre-petition secured debt for a combination of cash, a secured note in the amount of $130
million and 99% of the outstanding equity of the emerging parent company;
| | - | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  | Exit financing of up to $70 million (as further described below) of which approximately $30 million would be drawn upon emergence;
| | - | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  | An available cash pool to satisfy a portion of the claims of the Debtors general unsecured creditors;
| | - | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  | Holders of the Companys $300 million subordinated senior notes would receive 1% of the outstanding equity of the emerging parent company and certain warrants to purchase up to
an aggregate of 10% of the common stock of the emerging parent company exercisable only upon the occurrence of certain events; and
| | - | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  | The Companys existing securities, including its outstanding capital stock, will be cancelled.
| | - | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



The Third Amended Plan is filed as Exhibit 2.1 to this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.



On January 28, 2004, the Debtors received a commitment from General Electric Capital
Corporation (GE Capital) to provide the Company with a post-emergence revolving credit facility (the Exit Credit Facility). Pursuant to the terms of the Exit Credit Facility, GE Capital, and certain other lenders, would
provide to the Company a $70 million revolving credit facility, including a $30 million Letter of Credit subfacility, to be guaranteed by all of the Companys domestic subsidiaries (the Guarantors). The Company would be entitled to
borrow up to the lesser of $70 million and a Borrowing Base, calculated based on the Companys and the Guarantors inventory and accounts receivable, and the Company would agree to maintain a Minimum Excess
Availability against the Borrowing Base of $20 million at closing and $10 million thereafter. The loans made, and all other obligations of the Company and the Guarantors under the Exit

NOTE P - Subsequent Events (continued)



Credit Facility would be secured by a first priority security interest in all of the Guarantors existing and after acquired working capital assets, and
a second priority security interest in all of the Guarantors equipment, fixtures, and real property. The term of the Exit Credit Facility would be 48 months, and the loans made thereunder would incur interest at a non-default rate of, at the
Companys request, either (i) a fixed rate for periods of one, two, or three-month reserve adjusted LIBOR plus the Applicable Margins, or (ii) a floating rate at the Index Rate (higher of Prime or 50 basis points over
Fed Funds) plus the Applicable Margins. The Applicable Margins, as well as letter of credit fees and an unused facility fee, would be determined based on the Companys usage of the facility. In addition, the Company has
agreed to pay a prepayment fee if the revolver commitment is voluntarily reduced in excess of $20 million or terminated on or prior to the second anniversary of the closing date. GE Capitals obligation to provide the Exit Credit Facility
pursuant to the commitment is subject to the execution of a definitive loan agreement and related documents and certain customary conditions and there can be no assurance that such loan agreement and related documents will be entered into or that
alternative post-emergence financing can be obtained from another lender on as favorable terms or at all.



On February 10, 2004, the Company announced the confirmation of the Plan of Reorganization and the appointment of John J. Heldrich, currently the Executive Vice President of the Company and President and CEO of Swift
Denim, as President and CEO. Mr. Heldrich will become President and CEO upon the Companys emergence from bankruptcy and, at which time, as previously announced, Arthur C. Wiener will retire as Chairman, President and CEO.



On November 21, 2003 the Company received approval from the United States Bankruptcy Court to
complete the sale of Klopman to the Purchaser. The sale closed on February 10, 2004, however, approximately  2.0 million of the proceeds have been placed in escrow pending the receipt of consent of the Tunisia authorities related to the sale
of the manufacturing subsidiary located in Tunisia. The Company expects to receive the pending consent of the Tunisia authorities shortly, at which time the proceeds in escrow will be released to the Company. If the consent is not obtained by May
31, 2004, the escrow will be returned to the Purchaser and the Purchaser shall have the right to claim an additional amount of  2.0 million against a bank guarantee provided by the Company to secure any future tax claims and the Tunisian
subsidiary closing.



As a result of the reconfiguration of the Drummondville,
Quebec production facility (as discussed in Note D above), on February 13, 2004, Drummondville amended the Canadian Loan Agreement, dated as of February 13, 2001, with Congress Financial Corporation (Canada), as lender. The amendment, among other
things, extends the term of the

present Canadian Loan Agreement for a period of five months commencing on February 13, 2004 and terminating on July 13, 2004 with no further renewal periods.
Subject to the terms and conditions of this agreement, the principal amount of the term loan will be repaid in minimum monthly installments on a schedule as set forth in the amendment with the balance due on or prior to May 31, 2004. In addition,
Drummondville covenants to make minimum repayments so as to permanently reduce the amount outstanding under the revolving line of credit on a schedule as set forth in the amendment with the balance to be paid off prior to July 13, 2004.

|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 the Filing Date, 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 Wachovia Bank, National
Association (formerly known as 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 of up
to $30 million. On March 19, 2002, the Bankruptcy Court entered a final order approving the entire $100 million DIP financing. Effective September 24, 2002, the Company exercised its right, as permitted under the DIP Financing Agreement (as defined
below), to permanently reduce such maximum amount of revolving credit borrowings from $100 million to $75 million. Effective July 25, 2003, the Company further exercised its right, as permitted under the DIP Financing Agreement, to permanently
reduce such maximum amount of revolving credit borrowings from $75 million to $50 million. For a description of the DIP Financing Agreement, see -Liquidity and Capital Resources.



By orders dated June 6, 2002, and July 24, 2002, the Bankruptcy Court authorized the
implementation of various employee programs for the Debtors.



The Debtors have
also received authority to conduct certain other transactions that might be considered outside the ordinary course of business. The Debtors have sought and received authority to pay certain pre-petition personal and property taxes, to
sell certain



44



---

##### Table of Contents

identified assets, to enter into certain financing agreements, and to retain a real estate professional to market and sell certain unused properties. Among
other things, the Debtors have received authority to sell Klopman. This sale has not closed as of the date hereof. See Note C  Discontinued Operations.



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 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. Under the Bankruptcy Code, the Debtors must assume, assume and assign, or reject all unexpired leases of non-residential real property for which a Debtor
is lessee within 60 days from the Filing Date. By orders dated April 29, 2002, August 16, 2002, December 11, 2002, April 17, 2003, and August 13, 2003, and December 17, 2003, the Bankruptcy Court extended this deadline up through and including April
12, 2004. The Bankruptcy Court has entered several orders collectively approving the rejection of certain identified executory contracts and unexpired leases. The Debtors reserve their right to continue, to the extent possible, reviewing their
remaining executory contracts to determine which, if any, they will reject. The Debtors have proposed treatment for each such executory contract and unexpired lease as part of the proposed plan of reorganization, but that proposed treatment may
change if the proposed plan is not consummated. If the proposed plan of reorganization is not consummated, the Debtors will need to re-examine the potential treatment of each executory contract and unexpired lease. As such, 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 under such alternative plan.



The Bankruptcy Court established October 1, 2002 as the bar date as of which all claimants were required to submit and
characterize claims against the Debtors. The Debtors are currently in the process of reviewing the claims that were filed against the Company. The ultimate amount of the claims allowed by the Court against the Company could be significantly
different than the amount of the liabilities recorded by the Company.



On or
about April 4, 2003, the Official Committee of General Unsecured Creditors (the Committee) filed a motion (the Examiner Motion) seeking the appointment of an examiner in the Debtors cases pursuant to Sections
1104(c)(1), 1104(c)(2) and 105(a) of the Bankruptcy Code and Bankruptcy Rules 2007.1 and 9014, and seeking an injunction prohibiting the Debtors from filing a Plan for at least 90 days from



45

##### Table of Contents

the appointment of such examiner. Both the Debtors and the agent for the Debtors pre-petition secured lenders filed objections to this motion,
objecting to the relief requested therein and the purported factual predicate therefore. The Committee has withdrawn the Examiner Motion.



On or around June 26, 2003, the Company filed a motion for authority to enter into an engagement agreement (the Engagement Agreement) with Alvarez &
Marsal, Inc. (A&M). A&M will supplement existing management with professionals led by Mr. Peter A. Briggs, a managing director at A&M. Mr. Briggs will serve as chief restructuring officer (CRO) and report to
Arthur C. Wiener, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of the Company. Mr. Joseph A. Bondi and certain additional officers (together, the Additional Officers) will assist the CRO. On or about June 27, 2003, the Bankruptcy Court entered
an order authorizing the Company, on an interim basis and as amended thereby, to enter into the Engagement Agreement, and to retain the CRO and Additional Officers. On or about July 18, 2003, the Bankruptcy Court entered a final order approving the
retention of A&M and the CRO and Additional Officers.



The consummation of
a plan or plans of reorganization 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.



A plan could also involve the sale of the Debtors assets and/or stock. It is also possible that a sale of the Debtors assets and/or stock could be accomplished outside a plan of reorganization. Pursuant to the Bankruptcy Code,
the Debtors had 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. As of the date hereof, the Bankruptcy Court had entered eight orders collectively extending the Debtors exclusive right to file a plan through and including November 15, 2003, and extending the Debtors exclusive right to
solicit acceptances of such Plan through and including February 4, 2004. Both of these exclusivity periods may be further extended by the Bankruptcy Court for cause.



On December 18, 2003, the Debtors filed a proposed second amended plan (as amended, modified, and or supplemented, the Plan),
along with a proposed second amended disclosure statement (Disclosure Statement) by which they intend to solicit acceptances to such Plan. On December 19, 2003, the Bankruptcy Court entered an order, among other things, approving the
Disclosure Statement, and authorizing the Debtors to solicit votes on the Plan thereby. The Bankruptcy Court further established January 20, 2004 as both the deadline for voting on the Plan and the deadline to file objections, if any, to the Plan.
On

##### Table of Contents

January 15, 2004, the Debtors filed a Modified Second Amended Plan and a Supplement thereto, and on February 2, 2004, filed a Third Amended Plan. Following a
hearing on February 9, 2004, the Bankruptcy Court entered an order, among other things, confirming the Plan.



Some of the key terms of the proposed Plan are:



| |  | The Companys senior secured debtholders would exchange approximately $300 million in pre-petition secured debt for a combination of cash, a secured note in the amount of $130
million and 99% of the outstanding equity of the emerging parent company;
| | - | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  | Exit financing of up to $70 million (as further discussed below) of which approximately $30 million would be drawn upon emergence;
| | - | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  | An available cash pool to satisfy a portion of the claims of the Debtors general unsecured creditors;
| | - | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  | Holders of the Companys $300 million subordinated senior notes would receive 1% of the outstanding equity of the emerging parent company and certain warrants to purchase up to
an aggregate of 10% of the common stock of the emerging parent company exercisable only upon the occurrence of certain events; and
| | - | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  | The Companys existing securities, including its outstanding capital stock, will be cancelled.
| | - | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



On January 28, 2004, the Debtors received a commitment from General Electric Capital Corporation (GE Capital) to provide the
Company with a post-emergence revolving credit facility (the Exit Credit Facility). Pursuant to the terms of the Exit Credit Facility, GE Capital, and certain other lenders, would provide to the Company a $70 million revolving credit
facility, including a $30 million Letter of Credit subfacility, to be guaranteed by all of the Companys domestic subsidiaries (the Guarantors). The Company would be entitled to borrow up to the lesser of $70 million and a
Borrowing Base, calculated based on the Companys and the Guarantors inventory and accounts receivable, and the Company would agree to maintain a Minimum Excess Availability against the Borrowing Base of $20
million at closing and $10 million thereafter. The loans made, and all other obligations of the Company and the Guarantors under the Exit Credit Facility would be secured by a first priority security interest in all of the Guarantors existing
and after acquired working capital assets, and a second priority security interest in all of the Guarantors equipment, fixtures, and real property. The term of the Exit Credit Facility would be 48 months, and the loans made thereunder would
incur interest at a non-default rate of, at the Companys request, either (i) a fixed rate for periods of one, two, or three-month reserve adjusted LIBOR plus the Applicable Margins, or (ii) a floating rate at the Index
Rate (higher of Prime or 50 basis points over Fed Funds) plus the Applicable Margins. The Applicable Margins, as well as letter of credit fees and an unused facility fee, would be determined based on the Companys
usage of the facility. In addition, the Company has agreed to pay a prepayment fee if the revolver commitment is voluntarily reduced in excess of $20 million or



47

##### Table of Contents

terminated on or prior to the second anniversary of the closing date. GE Capitals obligation to provide the Exit Credit Facility pursuant to the
commitment is subject to the execution of a definitive loan agreement and related documents and certain customary conditions and there can be no assurance that such loan agreement and related documents will be entered into or that alternative
post-emergence financing can be obtained from another lender on as favorable terms or at all.



Nothing contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q is intended to be, nor should it be construed as, a solicitation for a vote on the proposed Plan, which can only occur based on the official disclosure statement
package, and all terms and provisions hereof are qualified in their entirety by reference to the Plan.



If the Debtors fail to consummate the Plan, any party-in-interest, including a creditor, an equity holder, a committee of creditors or equity holders, or an indenture trustee, may be entitled to file its own plan of
reorganization for the Debtors. Confirmation of a plan of organization 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 of reorganization
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, if, among other things, no claim or interest receives or retains any property under the plan until each holder of a claim senior to such 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 an alternative plan will be confirmed by the Bankruptcy Court, or that any such
plan will be consummated.



Although the Debtors hope to consummate the Plan, it
is still 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.



During the pendency of the Chapter 11 Filings, the Debtors may, with Bankruptcy Court approval, sell assets and settle liabilities,

##### Table of Contents

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 accompanying 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 consummate the Plan, or any alternative plan which may be proposed), its ability, if necessary, to extend the term and maturity of the
DIP Financing Agreement beyond February 23, 2004 or, if necessary, find alternative debtor-in-possession financing, its ability to comply with the DIP Financing Agreement or any alternative financing arrangement, 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 accompanying
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 addition, the Plan does, and an alternative plan
could, materially change the amounts reported in the Companys financial statements. The financial statements do not give effect to adjustments of the carrying value of assets or liabilities, the effects of any changes that may be made to the
capital accounts or the effect on results of operations that might be necessary as a consequence of a plan of reorganization.



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 pre-petition 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 a consummated plan.

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. The Company recognized a charge of $4.1 million and $3.4 million associated with the Chapter 11 Filings for the three months ended December 27, 2003 and December 28, 2002, respectively. Of these charges, $4.1 million and $1.8 million
for the three months ended December 27, 2003 and December 28, 2002, respectively, were for fees payable to professionals retained to assist with the Chapter 11 Filings and $1.6 million for the three months ended December 28, 2002, was related to key
employee retention programs.



Reconfiguration of Drummondville, Quebec
Production Facility



On December 11, 2003 (the first quarter of fiscal
2004), the Company announced the reconfiguration of its Swift Denim production facility in Drummondville, Quebec. Under the reconfiguration, weaving and finishing of denim in this facility is anticipated to cease in April 2004. The Drummondville
facility will continue to produce yarn for other Swift facilities. As a result of the decision to cease denim fabric production at this location, the Company evaluated the ongoing value of the plant and equipment at the Drummondville facility. Based
on this evaluation, the Company determined that long-lived assets with a carrying amount of $26.8 million were no longer recoverable and were impaired resulting in the recognition of a $13.7 million impairment loss in the current quarter for the
difference between the carrying amount of the long-lived assets and their fair value. The fair value of these assets was estimated based on expected future cash flows discounted at the risk-free interest rate 6.5%.



The reconfiguration will result in the termination of approximately 550 employees in
Drummondville. After the reconfiguration, the facility will employ approximately 215 individuals in yarn production and related supporting functions. In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 146, Accounting for Costs
Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities (FAS 146), Swift Denim recorded a severance accrual of $0.4 million in the December quarter

2003, however, no severance payments have yet been made. The Company is anticipating an additional $5.0 million of costs related to reconfiguring the plant
primarily for employee termination benefits over the next four months.



Subsequent Events



On February 10, 2004, the Company announced
the confirmation of the Plan of Reorganization and the appointment of John J. Heldrich as President and CEO. Mr. Heldrich, currently the Executive Vice President of the Company and President and CEO of Swift Denim, will become President and CEO upon
the Companys emergence from bankruptcy and, at which time, as previously announced, Arthur C. Wiener will retire as Chairman, President and CEO.



On November 21, 2003 the Company received approval from the United States Bankruptcy Court to complete the sale of Klopman to the Purchaser. The sale closed on February
10, 2004, however, approximately  2.0 million of the proceeds have been placed in escrow pending the receipt of consent of the Tunisia authorities related to the sale of the manufacturing subsidiary located in Tunisia. The Company expects to
receive the pending consent of the Tunisia authorities shortly, at which time the proceeds in escrow will be released to the Company. If the consent is not obtained by May 31, 2004, the escrow will be returned to the Purchaser and the Purchaser
shall have the right to claim an additional amount of  2.0 million against a bank guarantee provided by the Company to secure any future tax claims and the Tunisian subsidiary closing.



As a result of the reconfiguration of the Drummondville, Quebec production facility (as
discussed above), on February 13, 2004, Drummondville amended the Canadian Loan Agreement, dated as of February 13, 2001, with Congress Financial Corporation (Canada), as lender. The amendment, among other things, extends the term of the present
Canadian Loan Agreement for a period of five months commencing on February 13, 2004 and terminating on July 13, 2004 with no further renewal periods. Subject to the terms and conditions of this agreement, the principal amount of the term loan will
be repaid in minimum monthly installments on a schedule as set forth in the amendment with the balance due on or prior to May 31, 2004. In addition, Drummondville covenants to make minimum repayments so as to permanently reduce the amount
outstanding under the revolving line of credit on a schedule as set forth in the amendment with the balance to be paid off prior to July 13, 2004.

December Quarter 2003 Compared
to December Quarter 2002



Net Sales



Net sales for the December quarter 2003 (first quarter of fiscal 2004) were $88.5 million as
compared to $114.8 million for the December quarter 2002 (first quarter of fiscal 2003). The $26.3 million decrease in net sales resulted primarily from decreased sales volume due to the continuing weak demand in the retail market, as well as lower
selling prices due to price pressure from imports, excess domestic capacity and the continued shift toward discount retailers and private label apparel.



Galey & Lord ApparelGaley & Lord Apparels net sales for the December quarter 2003 were $53.2 million, a $14.1 million decrease as compared to
the December quarter 2002 net sales of $67.3 million. The sales decrease was primarily due to a 19.2% decrease in apparel fabric sales volume along with a 2.0% decline in selling prices, inclusive of product mix changes.



Swift Denim Swift Denims net sales for the December quarter 2003 were
$35.2 million as compared to $47.4 million in the December quarter 2002. The $12.2 million decrease was primarily attributable to a 23.5% decrease in volume and a 3.7% decline in selling prices partially offset by a 2.2% improvement in product mix.

Operating Income (Loss)



Operating loss for the December quarter 2003 was $29.3 million as compared to an operating income of $5.6 million for the December quarter 2002. The decrease was due
to lower sales volume at both of the Companys operating divisions and is the result of continuing weak retail demand for apparel, lost market share to imports and increased competition due to domestic overcapacity. In the latter half of fiscal
2003, the Company initiated an inventory reduction program that included production curtailments as well as accelerated sale of seconds and closeouts. Production curtailments and accelerated sales of seconds and closeouts related to the inventory
reduction program in the December quarter 2003 impacted results by approximately $2.7 million. In addition, the Company recorded a $13.7 million impairment of property, plant and equipment and a $0.4 million of severance expense in the December
quarter 2003 as a result of the Companys announcement of the planned reconfiguration of its Drummondville, Quebec facility (see further discussion in the Swift Denim operating income (loss) discussion below).



Galey & Lord Apparel Galey & Lord Apparels operating loss was
$5.5 million for the December quarter 2003 as compared to $1.2 million operating income for the December quarter 2002. This decline was principally a result of reduced fabric sales due to a continued weak retail market, lower product margins due to
competitive pricing, higher raw material costs and manufacturing capacity curtailments. These losses were partially offset by improvements in selling, general and administrative expenses.



Swift Denim Swift Denims operating loss was $23.7 million for the December quarter 2003 compared to an operating income
of $4.5 million for the December quarter 2002.



In the first quarter of fiscal
2004, the Company announced the reconfiguration of its Swift Denim production facility in Drummondville, Quebec. Under the reconfiguration, weaving and finishing of denim in this facility is anticipated to cease in April 2004, however, the
Drummondville facility will continue to produce yarn for other Swift facilities. As a result of the decision to cease denim fabric production at this location, the Company evaluated the ongoing value of the plant and equipment at the Drummondville
facility. Based on this evaluation, the Company determined that long-lived assets with a carrying amount of $26.8 million were no longer recoverable and were impaired resulting in the recognition of a $13.7 million impairment loss in the December
quarter 2003 for the difference between the carrying amount of the long-lived assets and their fair value. The fair value of these assets was estimated based on expected future cash flows discounted at the risk-free interest rate of 6.5%. In
addition, the reconfiguration of the Drummondville facility will result in the termination of approximately 550 employees. In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 146, Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or
Disposal Activities (FAS 146), Swift Denim recorded a severance accrual of $0.4 million in the December quarter 2003 and expects to

##### Table of Contents

incur an additional $5.0 million in severance and other costs over the next four months.



The remainder of the decline was due to lower sales volume which has resulted in curtailment of capacity (as noted above), lower selling
prices due to price pressure from competition and unfavorable variances due to manufacturing inefficiencies and higher raw material and energy prices. These decreases are partially offset by improvements in selling, general and administrative
expenses.



Corporate The corporate segment reported an operating
loss for the December quarter 2003 of $0 as compared to $0.1 million for the December quarter 2002. The corporate segments operating loss typically represents the administrative expenses from the Companys various holding companies.



Income from Associated Companies



Income from associated companies was $1.5 million in the December quarter 2003 as compared
to $2.5 million in the December quarter 2002. The income represents amounts from several joint venture interests that manufacture and sell denim products. The decrease in income from associated companies is due to declining results of the December
quarter 2003 over the December quarter 2002 for both the Swift Denim-Hidalgo and Swift Europe joint ventures.



Interest Expense



Interest expense from
continuing operations was $4.3 million for the December quarter 2003 compared to $5.2 million for the December quarter 2002. The decrease in interest expense was primarily due to lower prime and LIBOR base rates in the December quarter 2003 as
compared to the December quarter 2002 in addition to lower debt fee amortization in the December quarter 2003. The accrual of interest expense on the 9 1/8% Senior Subordinated Notes (Subordinated Notes) was discontinued as of the Filing
date and, thus, interest expense on the Subordinated Notes is not included in the December 2003 quarter or the December 2002 quarter. The average interest rate paid by the Company on its bank debt in the December quarter 2003 was 5.0% per annum as
compared to 5.7% per annum in the December quarter 2002.



Income Taxes



The Companys overall tax rate for the December quarter 2003
differed from the statutory rate principally due to the nonrecognition of the U.S. tax benefits on the domestic net operating loss carryforwards. The result is an overall tax benefit rate which is lower than the statutory rate.

Income (Loss) from Discontinued Operations



The Companys income from discontinued operations for the December quarter 2003 was $1.8 million or $0.15 per common share, compared to
$0.6 million, or $0.06 per common share, for the December quarter 2002. In August 2002, the Company retained Rothschild-Italia S.P.A., a financial advisor, to aid in the potential sale of its Klopman business. In July 2003, Dominion Textile
International B.V., an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (Dominion) and an investment group led by BS Private Equity (the Purchaser) entered into a Purchase Agreement (the Purchase Agreement),
pursuant to which the Company, through Dominion, agreed to sell to the Purchaser (the Sale Transaction) all of Klopman (pursuant to a sale of all or substantially all of the capital stock of each subsidiary which together constitute
Klopman), for a net purchase price of  22.4 million (before deduction for fees, costs and expenses). The consummation of the Sale Transaction was subject to a number of conditions, including, among other things, Bankruptcy Court approval,
regulatory approval and satisfactory completion of environmental due diligence and appropriate environmental surveys. In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2003, all substantive issues were resolved clearing the way to dispose of this business segment. On
November 21, 2003, the Company received approval from the Bankruptcy Court to complete the Sale Transaction. The sale closed on February 10, 2004, however, approximately  2.0 million of the proceeds was placed in escrow pending the receipt of
consent of the Tunisia authorities related to the sale of the manufacturing subsidiary located in Tunisia. The Company expects to receive the pending consent of the Tunisia authorities shortly, at which time, the proceeds in escrow will be released
to the Company. If the consent is not obtained by May 31, 2004, the escrow will be returned to the Purchaser and the Purchaser shall have the right to claim an additional amount of  2.0 million against a bank guarantee provided by the Company
to secure any future tax claims and the Tunisian subsidiary closing.



The
Company classified the Klopman segment as held for sale in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2003 and, consequently, the results of operations and statement of financial position for this segment have been reported in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q
as a discontinued operation for the current quarter and all prior periods presented herein. In connection with this reclassification to a discontinued operation, the Klopman segment was adjusted from its carrying value of $74.1 million to its
estimated fair value of $25.5 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2003. The resulting $48.6 million loss was included in the Income (loss) from operations of discontinued Klopman segment caption in the fiscal 2003 Consolidated
Statement of Operations for the fiscal year ended September 27, 2003. As of December 27, 2003, the Klopman segments carrying value excluding the fair value adjustment calculated at September 27, 2003, was $73.4 million and its estimated fair
value was determined to be $27.7 million resulting in a $45.7 million fair value adjustment at December 27, 2003. The $2.9 million gain in the fair value adjustment which



55



---

##### Table of Contents

occurred in the December 2003 quarter is included in the Income from discontinued operations caption in the Consolidated Statement of Operations
for the three months ended December 27, 2003. This change in the fair value adjustment is primarily attributable to the favorable effect of changes in the foreign currency exchange rates between the EURO and the U.S. dollar from September 27, 2003
to December 27, 2003 in relation to the expected proceeds in addition to the effect of the Klopman segments December quarter 2003 operating results.



In accordance with EITF 87-24, the Company allocated $0.3 million in both the December quarter 2003 and December quarter 2002 of interest expense related to the Senior
Credit Facility to discontinued operations which was added to interest directly incurred by the Klopman segment.



Net Loss and Net Loss Per Share



The Company reported a net loss for the December quarter 2003 of $29.3 million, or $2.44 per common share, inclusive of $4.1 million of reorganization costs and income of
$1.8 million related to discontinued operations, compared to a net loss for the December quarter 2002 of $87.7 million, or $7.31 per common share, inclusive of $3.4 million of reorganization costs, income of $0.6 million related to discontinued
operations and an $87.4 million loss from the cumulative effect of an accounting change.



Order Backlog



The
Companys order backlog at December 27, 2003 was $45.3 million, a 35.1% decrease from the December 28, 2002 backlog of $69.8 million. 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 $12.5 million and $45.5 million at December 27, 2003 and December 28, 2002, respectively. As a result of the Chapter 11 Filings, the 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 December 27, 2003, the Companys borrowing availability under its DIP Financing Agreement was
$41.5 million. The Company had $1.0 million of borrowings outstanding under the DIP Facility and $7.5 million in outstanding letters of credit as of December 27, 2003. The Company issued an additional $2.4 million letter of credit under the DIP
Facility in January 2004. The Company also had $6.1 million in outstanding letters of credit under the Senior Credit Facility. As of December 27, 2003, the Companys Canadian operations also had a total of U.S. $3.7 million of revolving credit
borrowing availability under the Canadian Loan Agreement (as defined below).



During the December quarter 2003, the Company primarily utilized its available cash and revolving credit borrowings under the DIP Facility and the Canadian Loan Facility to fund the Companys operating and capital expenditure
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 (which is a wholly-owned subsidiary of the 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).



The Company has certain domestic defined benefit pension plans (the Domestic
Plans). At September 27, 2003, the Domestic Plans



57

unfunded accumulated benefit obligation exceeded its unrecognized service cost. Accordingly, under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 87,
Employers Accounting for Pensions, an additional minimum pension liability of $12.9 million is reported as a separate component of equity in the balance sheet as part of accumulated other comprehensive loss. Annual minimum funding
requirements for the Domestic Plans are actuarially determined based on values as of the beginning of the Domestic Plans year (January 1). Based on the valuation as of January 1, 2003, the Companys minimum funding requirement will be
approximately $2.5 million for the Companys fiscal year 2004. Future minimum funding levels beyond the Companys fiscal year 2004 will be based on the Domestic Plans valuation as of January 1, 2004 (which is not available yet) and,
as such, are subject to the volatility of the stock market and other financial markets.



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 Wachovia Bank, National Association (formerly known as 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). Effective September 24, 2002, the Company exercised its right, as permitted under the DIP Financing Agreement, to permanently reduce such maximum amount of revolving credit borrowings from $100 million to $75 million. As a
result, $0.4 million of deferred debt fees related to the DIP financing agreement were written off in the September quarter 2002. Effective July 25, 2003, the Company further exercised its right, as permitted under the DIP Financing Agreement, to
permanently reduce such maximum amount of revolving credit borrowings from $75 million to $50 million.



Under the terms of the final DIP financing agreement (as amended, the DIP Financing Agreement), the Company, as borrower, may make revolving credit borrowings (including up to $15 million for post-petition
letters of credit which was reduced to $10 million by the Financing Extension, as defined below) in an amount not exceeding the lesser of $100 million (effective September 24, 2002, such amount was permanently reduced to $75 million and effective

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 Bankruptcy 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 Bankruptcy Code upon all property of the Company and the Debtor 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 Bankruptcy 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 Debtor subsidiaries 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. At September 27, 2003, the Company was in compliance with the covenants of the DIP Financing Agreement.

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.



The DIP Financing Agreement has been amended six times (collectively, the Financing Extension). It is currently set to expire on February 23, 2004. There can
be no assurance that the DIP Financing Agreement will be further extended, if necessary. The Company has no current commitments or arrangements for additional debtor-in-possession financing and, if the DIP Financing Agreement is not extended, there
can be no assurance that replacement debtor-in-possession financing will be available on acceptable terms (or that any such financing will



The Financing Extension allows the Company to have a maximum aggregate principal amount of loans and letters of credit outstanding of $25 million and reduces the maximum
aggregate amount available for letters of credit from $15 million to $10 million. As part of the Financing Extension, among other things, upon the sale of the capital stock of the entities which constitute Klopman and certain intellectual property
rights thereof for no less than  22.3 million, the Net Proceeds (as defined in the Financing Extension) from such sale will be repatriated to the Company and the Company will apply such repatriated funds in accordance with the DIP Financing
Agreement and any orders approving the extension thereof.



The DIP Financing
Agreement was also modified to provide for cash collateral for letters of credit from the proceeds of foreign repatriations, after the repayment of any outstanding loans under the DIP Financing Agreement.



Pre-Petition Senior Credit Facility



On January 29, 1998 the Company entered into a new credit agreement (as amended, the
Senior Credit Facility) with Wachovia Bank, National Association (formerly known as 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 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.

##### Table of Contents

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.



As a result of the February 2001 funding of the Companys Canadian Loan Agreement (as
defined below), the Company repaid $12.7 million in principal on 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 debt charges which is included in selling,
general and administrative expenses in the March quarter 2001.



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 (which is a wholly-owned subsidiary of the

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

##### Table of Contents

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.



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



62

##### Table of Contents

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, unless extended; 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. Effective July 24, 2002, the term loan was converted to U.S. dollars payable in
equal monthly installments of $150,000 U.S. dollars with the unpaid balance repayable in February 2004. 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).



As a result of the reconfiguration of the Drummondville, Quebec production facility (as discussed in Note D above), on February 13, 2004, Drummondville amended the
Canadian Loan Agreement, dated as of February 13, 2001, with Congress Financial Corporation (Canada), as lender. The amendment, among other things, extends the term of the present Canadian Loan Agreement for a period of five months commencing on
February 13, 2004 and terminating on July 13, 2004 with no further renewal periods. Subject to the terms and conditions of this agreement, the principal amount of the term loan will be repaid in minimum monthly installments on a schedule as set
forth in the amendment with the balance due on or prior to May 31, 2004. In addition, Drummondville covenants to make minimum repayments so as to permanently reduce the amount outstanding under the revolving line of credit on a schedule as set forth
in the amendment with the balance to be paid off prior to July 13, 2004.



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,

##### Table of Contents

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). At December 27, 2003, the Company was in compliance with the covenants of the Canadian Loan Agreement.



Tax Matters



At December 27, 2003, the Company had outstanding net operating loss carryforwards (NOLs) for U.S. federal tax purposes of approximately $188 million and state tax purposes of approximately $194 million.
The federal NOLs will expire in years 2018-2024 if unused, and the state NOLs will expire in years 2004-2024 if unused. In accordance with the Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes, a valuation
allowance of $69.3 million related to domestic and international 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.



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 discussed above, on January 28, 2004, the Debtors received a commitment from General Electric Capital Corporation (GE Capital) to provide the Company with a post-emergence revolving credit facility (the
Exit Credit Facility). Pursuant to the terms of the Exit Credit Facility, GE Capital, and certain other lenders, would provide to the Company a $70 million revolving credit facility, including a $30 million Letter of Credit subfacility,
to be guaranteed by all of the Companys domestic subsidiaries (the Guarantors). The Company would be entitled to borrow up to the lesser of $70 million and a Borrowing Base, calculated based on the Companys and
the Guarantors inventory and accounts receivable, and the Company would agree to maintain a Minimum Excess Availability against the Borrowing Base of $20 million at closing and $10 million thereafter. The loans made, and all other
obligations of the Company and the Guarantors under the Exit Credit Facility would be secured by a first priority security interest in all of the Guarantors existing and after acquired working capital assets, and a second priority security
interest in all of the Guarantors equipment, fixtures, and real property. The term of the Exit Credit Facility would be 48 months. GE Capitals obligation to provide the Exit Credit Facility pursuant

##### Table of Contents

to the commitment is subject to the execution of a definitive loan agreement and related documents and certain customary conditions and there can be no
assurance that such loan agreement and related documents will be entered into or that alternative post-emergence financing can be obtained from another lender on as favorable terms or at all.



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 and the Canadian Loan Agreement, 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 and the Canadian Loan Agreement are not sufficient to meet future cash requirements, the Company may be required to reduce planned capital expenditures, sell assets or seek additional financing. While the Company
does not believe this is likely, it 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.



Other



The Company expects to spend approximately $13.2 million for capital expenditures related to
continuing operations in fiscal 2004, of which $2.0 million was spent in the first three months of fiscal 2004. The Company anticipates that approximately 40% of the forecasted capital expenditures will be used to enhance the Companys capacity
while the remaining 60% will be used to maintain existing capacity.



IMPACT
OF RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS



In October 2001, the FASB issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets (FAS 144). This Statement establishes a single accounting model for the impairment or disposal of long-lived
assets. As required by FAS 144, the Company adopted this new accounting standard for fiscal year 2003. The adoption of FAS 144 did have a material impact on the Companys consolidated results of operations and financial position. See Note
C  Discontinued Operations and Note D  Reconfiguration of the Drummondville, Quebec Production Facility in the Companys consolidated financial statements contained herein.



In June 2002, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 146,
Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or



65



---

##### Table of Contents

Disposal Activities (FAS 146). This Statement requires that a liability for a cost associated with an exit or disposal activity be
recognized when the liability is incurred. FAS 146 also establishes that fair value is the objective for initial measurement of the liability. The Company adopted this standard for fiscal year 2003. The adoption of FAS 146 did have a material impact
on the Companys consolidated results of operations or financial position. See Note D  Reconfiguration of the Drummondville, Quebec Production Facility in the Companys consolidated financial statements contained herein.



In April 2003, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No.
149, Amendment of Statement 133 on Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities (FAS 149). FAS 149 amends and clarifies accounting for derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other
contracts, and for hedging activities under Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 133 (Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, as amended. In particular, this Statement clarifies under what circumstances a
contract with an initial net investment meets the characteristic of a derivative and when a derivative contains a financing component that warrants special reporting in the statement of cash flows. The Company adopted this standard for contracts
entered into or modified after June 30, 2003. The adoption of FAS 149 did not have a material impact on the Companys consolidated results of operations or financial position.



In May 2003, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 150, Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with
Characteristics of both Liabilities and Equity (FAS 150). This Statement requires certain financial instruments that embody obligations of the issuer and have characteristics of both liabilities and equity to be classified as
liabilities. The Company adopted this standard for financial instruments entered into or modified after May 31, 2003. The adoption of FAS 150 did not have a material impact on the Companys consolidated results of operations or financial
position.



In January 2003, the Financial Accounting Standards Board
(FASB) issued FASB Interpretation No. 46, Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities (FIN 46) and amended it by issuing FIN 46R in December 2003. Among other things, FIN 46R generally deferred the effective date of FIN 46
for variable interest entities to the quarter ended March 31, 2004. FIN 46 requires unconsolidated variable interest entities to be consolidated by their primary beneficiaries. The Company is still evaluating the impact of FIN 46 but does not
believe that it will have a material impact on the Companys consolidated financial statements or related disclosures.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES



The preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles requires management to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes.



Chapter 11 Filings:On February 19, 2002, the Company and each of its domestic subsidiaries (together with the Company, the Debtors) filed voluntary petitions for reorganization under Chapter 11 of
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 of the Bankruptcy Code and are not the subject of any bankruptcy proceedings.



The accompanying consolidated financial statements are presented in accordance SOP 90-7. See
Bankruptcy Filing.



Inventories:Inventories are stated at
the lower of cost or market. On September 30, 2001, the Company changed its method of accounting for inventories to last-in, first-out (LIFO) method for its Swift Denim business which was acquired on January 28, 1998. Therefore, the LIFO method is
used to cost substantially all of inventories at continuing operations at September 27, 2003. The Company believes that utilizing LIFO for the Swift Denim business will result in a better matching of costs with revenues and provide consistency in
accounting for inventory among the Companys North American operations. The Company also believes the utilization of LIFO is consistent with industry practice.



Impairment of Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets: Effective as of the beginning of the Companys fiscal 2003, the Company
adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets (FAS 142). This new standard eliminated the amortization of goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite useful lives
(collectively, the Intangible Assets). Instead these assets must be tested at least annually for impairment. In the year of adoption, FAS 142 also requires the Company to perform an initial assessment of its reporting units to determine
whether there is any indication that the Intangible Assets carrying value may be impaired. This transitional assessment is made by comparing the fair value of each reporting unit, as determined in accordance with the new standard, to its
carrying value. To the extent the fair value of any reporting unit is less than its carrying value, which would indicate that potential impairment of Intangible Assets exists, a second transitional test is required to determine the amount of
impairment.



67



---

##### Table of Contents

For purposes of Intangible Assets impairment testing, FAS 142 requires that goodwill be assigned to one or more reporting
units. The Company had assigned goodwill to the Swift Denim and Galey & Lord Apparel reporting units. In addition to goodwill, Swift Denim also owns several trademarks whose useful lives are considered to be indefinite.



The Company, with the assistance of an outside consultant, completed the initial transitional
assessment of its reporting units in the first quarter of fiscal 2003 and has determined that potential impairment of Intangible Assets exists in both reporting units. During the second quarter of fiscal 2003, the Company completed its assessment
and, accordingly, the goodwill balance of $65.2 million ($0.8 million and $64.4 million at the Galey & Lord Apparel and Swift Denim reporting units, respectively) was impaired and $22.2 million of the trademark (Swift Denim reporting unit) was
impaired. The impairment write-down resulting from the transitional testing has been reported as a cumulative effect of an accounting change, retroactive to the first day of fiscal 2003.



FAS 142 requires that an intangible asset not subject to amortization be tested for impairment annually, or more frequently if events or
changes in circumstances indicate the asset might be impaired. If the carrying amount of an intangible asset exceeds its fair value, an impairment loss shall be recognized in an amount equal to that excess and the adjusted carrying amount of the
intangible assets shall be its new accounting basis. The Company determined that impairment indicators existed with respect to Swift Denim in the June quarter 2003 due to the further softening in the retail environment in which Swift Denim operates.
Accordingly, the fair value of the Swift Denim trademark was tested for impairment based on the expected value of future cash flows and, based on such testing, a non-cash impairment loss of $5.5 million was recorded on the Swift Denim trademark in
the June quarter 2003.



Investment in and advances to associated
companies:In the consolidated balance sheets, investments in and advances to associated companies represents several joint ventures with ownership interests ranging from 33% to 50%. These joint ventures are accounted for under the
equity method of accounting. The results of the Swift Denim-Hidalgo joint venture, which manufactures denim in Mexico and was formed on August 18, 2001 with Grupo Dioral, is reported on a one-month lag.



At December 27, 2003 and December 28, 2002, the excess of the Companys investment over
its equity in the underlying net assets of its joint venture interests was approximately $9.7 million (net of accumulated amortization of $3.0 million) and prior to the adoption of FAS 142 as of the beginning of fiscal 2003, was being amortized on a
straight-line basis over 20 years as a component of the equity in earnings of the unconsolidated associated companies. Upon adoption of



68

##### Table of Contents

FAS 142, the Company ceased amortizing the remaining investment over its equity in the underlying net assets of its joint venture interests. However, equity
method goodwill will continue to be reviewed in accordance with Accounting Principles Board (APB) Opinion No. 18 The Equity Method of Accounting for Investments in Common Stock. The Company believes that no impairment of the
equity method goodwill existed at December 27, 2003.



Revenue Recognition:The Company recognizes revenues from product sales when goods are shipped or when ownership is assumed by the customer. Consistent with recognized practice in the textile industry, the Company records revenues on a bill and hold basis, invoicing
goods that have been produced, packaged and made ready for shipment. The goods are effectively segregated from inventory which is available for sale. The risk of ownership of the goods has passed to the customer and remittance terms are consistent
with all other sales by the Company. During the first quarters of fiscal 2004 and 2003, invoices issued under these terms represent 16% and 15% of revenue, respectively.



The Company classifies amounts billed to customers for shipping and handling in net sales and costs incurred for shipping and handling in
cost of sales in the consolidated statements of operations.



Allowance for
Doubtful Accounts: An allowance for losses is provided for known and potential losses arising from amounts owed by customers and quality claims. Reserves for quality claims are based on historical experience and known pending claims. The
collectibility of customer accounts receivable is based on a combination of factors including the aging of accounts receivable, write-off experience and the financial condition of specific customers. Accounts are written off when they are no longer
deemed to be collectible. General reserves are established based on the percentages applied to accounts receivables aged for certain periods of time and are supplemented by specific reserves for certain customer accounts where collection is no
longer certain. Establishing reserves for quality claims and bad debts requires management judgment and estimates, which may impact the ending accounts receivable valuation, gross margins and the provision for bad debts.

Foreign Currency Exposures



The Company conducts its business
in various foreign currencies and, as a result, is exposed to movements in foreign currency exchange rates. To protect against the volatility of forecasted foreign currency sales and purchases and accounts receivable and payable denominated in
foreign currencies, the Company uses natural offsets and forward contracts. As of December 27, 2003, the result of a uniform 10% change in the value of the U.S. dollar relative to currencies of countries in which the Company manufactures or sells
its products would not be material.



Cotton Commodity Exposures



Purchase contracts are used to hedge against fluctuations in the price of
raw material cotton. Increases or decreases in the market price of cotton may effect the fair value of cotton commodity purchase contracts. A 10% decline in market price as of December 27, 2003 would have a negative impact of approximately $3.0

No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, as amended (FAS 133), which requires that all derivative instruments be reported on the balance sheet at fair value and establishes criteria for
designation and effectiveness of hedging relationships.



The Company enters
into energy purchase contracts to lock in natural gas prices when rates are attractive for its forecasted natural gas usage in the normal course of business. The Company does not utilize derivative financial instruments for trading or other
speculative purposes. The Company actively evaluates the creditworthiness of the financial institutions that are counterparties to derivative financial instruments, and it does not expect any counterparties to fail to meet their obligations.

Derivative Financial Instruments (Continued)



Cash Flow Hedging Strategy



The Company uses natural gas in the ordinary course of its business and enters into energy purchase contracts, when deemed appropriate, to
hedge the exposure to variability in expected future cash flows attributable to price fluctuations related to the forecasted purchases of natural gas. At December 27, 2003, the Companys energy purchase contracts will expire within the next
twelve months.



Energy purchase contracts (which are settled in cash) that
hedge forecasted purchases are designated as cash flow hedges. The amount of gain or loss resulting from hedge ineffectiveness for these contracts is attributable to the difference in the spot rates and forward contract rates. The net loss was not
material for the three months ended December 27, 2003 and is included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statement of operations.



At December 27, 2003, the Company expects to reclassify approximately $0.1 million of pre-tax gains on derivative instruments from
accumulated other comprehensive income to earnings over the next nine months. This reclassification will be made when the forecasted transactions occur.

|Item 4. | CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
|------- | -----------------------



The Companys senior management is responsible for establishing and maintaining a system of disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-14 and 15d-14
under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the Exchange Act)) designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized
and reported, within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commissions rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to
be disclosed by an issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Act is accumulated and communicated to the issuers management, including its principal executive officer or officers and principal financial officer or officers, or
persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.



In accordance with Exchange Act Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15, the Company carried out an evaluation, with the participation of the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Accounting Officer, as well as other key members of the
Companys management, of the effectiveness of the Companys disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, the Companys Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial
Officer concluded that the Companys disclosure controls and procedures were effective, as of the end of the period covered by this report, to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in the Companys reports
filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commissions rules and forms.

|Item 3. | Defaults Upon Senior Securities
|------- | -------------------------------



The commencement of the Chapter 11 Filings constitutes an event of default under the Senior Credit Facility, the 9 1/8% Senior Subordinated Notes and the
Indenture related thereto, and the Companys South Carolina Job and Economic Development Authority Bonds (JEDA Bonds). At December 27, 2003, principal in the amount of $300 million and $4.5 million is in default in relation to the 9
1/8% Senior Subordinated Notes and the JEDA Bonds, respectively. The payment of interest accruing under the 9 1/8 % Senior Subordinated Notes and the JEDA Bonds after February 19, 2002 is stayed in connection with the Chapter 11 Filings. At December
27, 2003, $12.8 million of accrued interest expense related to the 9 1/8% Senior Subordinated Notes is recorded on the Companys Consolidated Balance Sheet and is in default. Had the payment of interest not been stayed subsequent to February
19, 2002, an additional $51.1 million of interest would have been accrued and considered in default.
