                    FRUIT OF THE LOOM, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
                             (DEBTOR IN POSSESSION)
              NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                   (UNAUDITED)



         1.  On March 4, 1999 Fruit of the Loom, Ltd. ("FTL, Ltd."), a Cayman
Islands company, became the parent holding company of Fruit of the Loom, Inc.
("FTL, Inc.") pursuant to a reorganization (the "Cayman Reorganization")
approved by the stockholders of FTL, Inc. on November 12, 1998. At the beginning
of the third quarter of 1999, FTL, Inc. transferred ownership of its Central
American subsidiaries that perform essentially all of the Company's sewing and
finishing operations for the U.S. market to FTL Caribe Ltd., a Cayman Islands
company directly wholly owned by FTL, Ltd.

         The condensed consolidated financial statements contained herein should
be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related
notes contained in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended
January 1, 2000. The information furnished herein reflects all adjustments
(consisting of normal recurring adjustments) which are, in the opinion of
management, necessary for a fair presentation of the results of operations of
the interim periods. Operating results for the three and six months ended July
1, 2000 are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the
full year. Certain prior year and first quarter amounts have been reclassified
to conform with the current year presentation.

         In connection with the Cayman Reorganization, all outstanding shares of
Class A common stock of FTL, Inc. were automatically converted into Class A
ordinary shares of FTL, Ltd., and all outstanding shares of Class B common stock
of FTL, Inc. were automatically converted into shares of exchangeable
participating preferred stock of FTL, Inc. (the "FTL, Inc. Preferred Stock").

         The FTL, Inc. Preferred Stock (5,229,421 shares outstanding) in the
aggregate (i) has a liquidation value of $71,700,000, which is equal to the fair
market value of the FTL, Inc. Class B common stock based upon the $13.71 average
closing price of FTL, Inc. Class A common stock on the New York Stock Exchange
for the 20 trading days prior to March 4, 1999, (ii) is entitled to receive
cumulative cash dividends of 4.5% per annum of the liquidation value, payable
quarterly, (iii) is exchangeable at the option of the holder, in whole or from
time to time in part, at any time for 4,981,000 FTL, Ltd. Class A ordinary
shares, (iv) is convertible at the option of the holder, in whole or from time
to time in part, at any time for 4,981,000 shares of FTL, Inc. common stock, (v)
participates with the holders of FTL, Inc. common stock in all dividends and
liquidation payments in addition to its preference payments on an as converted
basis, (vi) is redeemable by FTL, Inc., at its option, after three years at a
redemption price equal to the then fair market value of FTL, Inc. Preferred
Stock as determined by a nationally recognized investment banking firm, and
(vii) has the right to vote on all matters put to a vote of the holders of FTL,
Inc. common stock, voting together with such holders as a single class, and is
entitled to the number of votes which such holder would have on an as converted
basis.

         The fixed dividend on the FTL, Inc. Preferred Stock of 4.5% of the
liquidation preference of $71,700,000 equals $3,200,000 on an annual basis. In
addition, preferred stockholders participate in FTL, Inc.'s earnings after
provision for the fixed preferred stock dividend. Participation in earnings is
determined as the ratio of preferred shares outstanding to the total of
preferred and common shares outstanding (7.2% at July 1, 2000). Preferred
stockholder participation in losses is limited to the preferred stockholders'
prior participation in earnings. Because FTL, Inc. reported losses throughout
1999 and in the first six months of 2000, the preferred stock participation is
limited to the fixed preferred dividends. The Company ceased recording dividends
on the FTL, Inc. Preferred Stock as of the date FTL, Inc.'s bankruptcy case
commenced since it is an unsecured obligation.

         2.  CHAPTER 11 FILING. On December 29, 1999 (the "Petition Date"), FTL,
Inc., its parent and 32 of its subsidiaries (collectively, the "Debtors") filed
voluntary petitions for relief under chapter 11 ("Chapter 11"), Title 11 of the
United States Code, U.S.C. Sections 101-1330 as amended (the "Bankruptcy Code"),
with the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware (the
"Bankruptcy Court"). The bankruptcy cases of the Debtors are being jointly
administered, for procedural purposes only, before the Bankruptcy Court under
Case No. 99-4497(PJW). Pursuant to Sections 1107 and 1108 of the Bankruptcy
Code, FTL, Inc., as debtor and debtor-in-possession, has continued to manage and
operate its assets and businesses pending the confirmation of a reorganization
plan and subject to the supervision and orders of the Bankruptcy Court. Because
FTL, Inc. currently is operating as debtor-in-possession under the Bankruptcy
Code, the existing directors and officers of FTL, Inc. continue to govern and
manage the operations of the Company, subject to the supervision and orders of
the Bankruptcy Court.

         Certain subsidiaries were not included in the Chapter 11 filings.
Condensed consolidated financial statements of the entities in reorganization
are presented herein.

         As part of the Chapter 11 cases, the Company routinely files pleadings,
documents and reports with the Bankruptcy Court which may contain updated,
additional or more detailed information about the Company, its assets,
liabilities or financial performance than is contained in this report. Copies of
filings in the Company's Chapter 11 cases are available during regular business
hours at the office of the Clerk of the Bankruptcy Court, United States
Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware, 5th Floor, 824 Market Street,
Wilmington, Delaware 19801. Certain filings may also be reviewed on the
Bankruptcy Court's electronic docket for the Company's Chapter 11 cases, which
is posted on the internet www.deb.uscourts.gov.

         REORGANIZATION PLAN PROCEDURES. The Debtors expect to reorganize their
affairs under the protection of Chapter 11 and to propose a Chapter 11 plan of
reorganization for themselves. Although management expects to file a plan of
reorganization which would contemplate emergence in 2001, there can be no
assurance at this time that a plan of reorganization proposed by the Debtors
will be approved or confirmed by the Bankruptcy Court, or if confirmed, that
such plan will be consummated. FTL, Inc. had the exclusive right to file a plan
of reorganization through April 27, 2000. The Bankruptcy Court granted an
extension of the exclusivity period through October 31, 2000 due to the
magnitude of the Company's operations and the complexity of the plan formulation
process. After the expiration of the exclusivity period (unless such period is
further extended by order of the Bankruptcy Court), creditors will have the
right to propose reorganization plans.

         The consummation of a plan of reorganization is the principal objective
of the Company's Chapter 11 cases. A plan of reorganization sets forth the means
for satisfying claims against and interests in the Company and its debtor
subsidiaries, including the liabilities subject to compromise. The consummation
of a plan of reorganization for the Company and its debtor subsidiaries will
require the requisite vote of impaired creditors and stockholders under the
Bankruptcy Code and confirmation of the plan by the Bankruptcy Court. At this
time it is not possible to predict the outcome of the Debtors' Chapter 11 cases
or their effect on the Debtors' business. Management believes that it is highly
unlikely that current equity security holders will receive any distribution
under any reorganization plan as a result of the issuance of new equity to
existing creditors.

                    FRUIT OF THE LOOM, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
                             (DEBTOR IN POSSESSION)
       NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (CONTINUED)
                                   (UNAUDITED)

         FINANCIAL STATEMENT PRESENTATION. The consolidated financial statements
have been presented in accordance with the American Institute of Certified
Public Accountants Statement of Position 90-7, "Financial Reporting by Entities
in Reorganization under the Bankruptcy Code" (SOP 90-7) and have been prepared
in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles applicable to a
going concern, which principles, except as otherwise disclosed, assume that
assets will be realized and liabilities will be discharged in the ordinary
course of business. As a result of the Chapter 11 cases and circumstances
relating to this event, including FTL, Inc.'s debt structure, default on all
pre-petition debt, negative cash flows, its recurring losses, and current
economic conditions, such realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities
are subject to significant uncertainty. While under the protection of Chapter
11, the Company may sell or otherwise dispose of assets, and liquidate or settle
liabilities, for amounts other than those reflected in the financial statements.
Additionally, the amounts reported on the consolidated balance sheet could
materially change because of changes in business strategies and the effects of
any proposed plan of reorganization.

         The appropriateness of using the going concern basis is dependent upon,
among other things, confirmation of a plan of reorganization, future profitable
operations, the ability to comply with the terms of the debtor-in-possession
financing facility and the ability to generate sufficient cash from operations
and financing arrangements to meet obligations.

         LIABILITIES SUBJECT TO COMPROMISE. In the Chapter 11 cases,
substantially all unsecured liabilities as of the Petition Date are subject to
compromise or other treatment under a plan of reorganization which must be
confirmed by the Bankruptcy Court after submission to any required vote by
affected parties. For financial reporting purposes, those liabilities and
obligations whose treatment and satisfaction are dependent on the outcome of the
Chapter 11 cases have been segregated and classified in the consolidated balance
sheets as liabilities subject to compromise under reorganization proceedings.
Generally, all actions to enforce or otherwise effect repayment of pre-Chapter
11 liabilities as well as all pending litigation against the Debtors are stayed
while the Debtors continue their business operations as debtors-in-possession.
Unaudited schedules have been filed by the Debtors with the Bankruptcy Court
setting forth the assets and liabilities of the Debtors as of the Petition Date
as reflected in the Debtor's accounting records. The ultimate amount of and
settlement terms for such liabilities are subject to an approved plan of
reorganization and accordingly are not presently determinable.

         Under the Bankruptcy Code, the Debtors may elect to assume or reject
real estate leases, employment contracts, personal property leases, service
contracts and other prepetition executory contracts, subject to Bankruptcy Court
approval. Claims for damages resulting from the rejection of real estate leases
and other executory contracts will be subject to separate bar dates. The Debtors
have not reviewed all leases for assumption or rejection but will analyze their
leases and executory contracts and may assume or reject leases and contracts.
Such rejections could result in additional liabilities subject to compromise.

         The principal categories of obligations classified as liabilities
subject to compromise to unrelated parties under reorganization cases are
identified below. The amounts below in total may vary significantly from the
stated amount of proofs of claim that will be filed with the Bankruptcy Court
and may be subject to future adjustment depending on Bankruptcy Court action,
further developments with respect to potential disputed claims, determination as
to the value of any collateral securing claims, or other events.

         Additional claims may arise from the rejection of additional real
estate leases and executory contracts by the Debtors.

                                                     ============     ==========

         As a result of the Chapter 11 filing, no principal or interest payments
will be made on unsecured prepetition debt without Bankruptcy Court approval or
until a plan of reorganization providing for the repayment terms has been
confirmed by the Bankruptcy Court and becomes effective. Therefore, interest on
prepetition unsecured obligations has not been accrued after the Petition Date.

         REORGANIZATION ITEMS AND OTHER EXPENSES. Pursuant to SOP 90-7, revenues
and expenses, realized gains and losses, and provisions for losses resulting
from the reorganization of the business are reported in the Condensed
Consolidated Statement of Operations separately as reorganization items.
Professional fees are expensed as incurred. Interest expense is reported only to
the extent that it will be paid during the cases or that it is probable that it
will be an allowed claim.

         On May 10, 2000 the Company received notice from the NASDAQ-AMEX Market
Group (the "Exchange") that the Company has fallen below certain of the
Exchange's continued listing guidelines. The Exchange is currently reviewing the
Company's listing eligibility for its 7% Debentures due March 15, 2011.

         3.  No dividends were declared on the Company's common stock for the
six-month periods ended July 1, 2000 and July 3, 1999. Management of the Company
believes that no dividends will be declared on the Company's common stock while
the Company's Chapter 11 cases are pending.

         4.  The Company's income tax provision for the second quarter and first
six months of 2000 consists of a provision for European income taxes. The
Company recorded no U.S. tax benefit at the U.S. statutory rate of 35% on the
pretax loss in the second quarter and first six months of 2000 primarily because
the Company is unable to realize any current benefit from the operating loss
through carrybacks to prior years, is unable under the Chapter 11 cases to
implement certain income tax planning strategies and expects an operating loss
for 2000.

                                   (UNAUDITED)

         As a result of the Chapter 11 cases, the utilization of net operating
loss carryforwards and tax credit carryforwards of the Company may be limited
under the Internal Revenue Code. The Company is unable at the present time to
quantify what, if any, limitation may apply to the tax carryforward items.

         The Company's effective income tax benefit for the first six months of
1999 reflected a provision projected for the full year for interest on prior
years' U.S. Federal income taxes and goodwill amortization, a portion of which
is not deductible for U.S. Federal income taxes.

         5.  On February 23, 2000 the Bankruptcy Court approved the Company's
plan to discontinue the operations of the Company's Pro Player Sports and
Licensing Division ("Pro Player"). In accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles, Pro Player has been treated as a discontinued operation
in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements. The assets of
Pro Player to be sold consist primarily of accounts receivable, inventories,
property, plant and equipment and intangibles. In connection with the Company's
decision to discontinue the operations of Pro Player, $47,500,000 was accrued in
the year ended January 1, 2000 for the loss on disposal of the assets of Pro
Player including a provision of $10,400,000 for expected operating losses during
the estimated phase-out period from February 24, 2000 through August 24, 2000.
The Company currently estimates the phase-out period will continue until the end
of the third quarter.

         Operating results for Pro Player are classified as Discontinued
Operations in the accompanying condensed consolidated statement of operations. A
portion of the Company's interest expense (in the amount of interest expense in
each period presented below) has been allocated to discontinued operations based

         7.  The Company and its subsidiaries are involved in certain legal
proceedings and have retained liabilities, including certain environmental
liabilities, such as those under the Comprehensive Environmental Response,
Compensation and Liability Act of 1980, as amended ("CERCLA"), its regulations
and similar state statutes ("Superfund Legislation"), in connection with the
sale of certain discontinued operations, some of which were significant
generators of hazardous waste. The Company and its subsidiaries have also
retained certain liabilities related to the sale of products in connection with
the sale of certain discontinued operations. The Company's retained liability
reserves at July 1, 2000 related to discontinued operations consist primarily of
certain environmental reserves of approximately $32,500,000 and product
liability reserves of approximately $2,000,000. The Company has purchased
insurance coverage for potential cleanup cost expenditures from the level of
current environmental reserves up to $100,000,000 for certain sites with
on-going remediation, pollution liability coverage for claims arising out of
pollution conditions at owned locations including continuing operations, sold
facilities and non-owned sites and product liability coverage for claims arising
out of products manufactured by the sold operations. Management believes that
adequate reserves have been established to cover potential claims based on facts
currently available and current Superfund and CERCLA Legislation.

         Generators of hazardous wastes which were disposed of at offsite
locations which are now superfund sites are subject to claims brought by state
and Federal regulatory agencies under Superfund Legislation and by private
citizens under Superfund Legislation and common law theories. Since 1982, the
United States Environmental Protection Agency (the "EPA") has actively sought
compensation for response costs and remedial action at offsite disposal
locations from waste generators under the Superfund Legislation, which
authorizes such action by the EPA regardless of fault, legality of original
disposal or ownership of a disposal site. The EPA's activities under the
Superfund Legislation can be expected to continue during the remainder of 2000
and future years.

         On February 24, 1999, the Board of Directors, excluding Mr. Farley,
authorized the Company to guarantee a bank loan of $65,000,000 to Mr. Farley in
connection with Mr. Farley's refinancing and retirement of his $26,000,000 and
$12,000,000 loans previously guaranteed by the Company and other indebtedness of
Mr. Farley. The Company's obligations under the guarantee are collateralized by
2,507,512 shares of FTL, Inc. Preferred Stock and all of Mr. Farley's assets,
including Mr. Farley's personal guarantee. In consideration of the guarantee,
which is scheduled to expire in September 2000, Mr. Farley is obligated to pay
an annual guarantee fee equal to 2% of the outstanding principal balance of the
loan. The Board of Directors received an opinion from an independent financial
advisor that the terms of the transaction are commercially reasonable. The total
amount guaranteed is $59,300,000 as of August 3, 2000. Based on management's
assessment of existing facts and circumstances of Mr. Farley's financial
condition, the Company recorded a $10,000,000 charge in the third quarter of
1999 and $20,000,000 in the fourth quarter of 1999 related to the Company's
exposure under the guarantee. The Company continues to evaluate its exposure
under the guarantee. Mr. Farley has not paid the Company the guarantee fee due
in 2000 and is in default under the loans and the reimbursement agreement with
the Company. The Company began paying interest on the loan in the first quarter
of 2000 including interest that was outstanding from the fourth quarter of 1999.
Through August 3, 2000, total payments made by the Company on behalf of Mr.
Farley's loan aggregated $3,300,000. In addition, unpaid guarantee fees owed the
Company by Mr. Farley through July 29, 2000 aggregated $1,000,000.

         William F. Farley, former Chairman of the Company's Board of Directors,
relinquished the additional duties of chief executive officer and chief
operating officer in August of 1999 at the direction of the Board. The Company
recorded a provision of $27,400,000 in the third quarter of 1999 for estimated
future severance and retirement obligations under Mr. Farley's employment
agreement. The Company terminated Mr. Farley's employment agreement in 1999.
Thereafter, the Company received approval from the Bankruptcy Court to reject
the agreement.

         The Company has negotiated grants from the governments of the Republic
of Ireland, Northern Ireland and Germany. The grants are being used for employee
training, the acquisition of property and equipment and other governmental
business incentives such as general employment. At July 1, 2000, the Company had
a contingent liability to repay, in whole or in part, grants received of
approximately $21,700,000 in the event that the Company does not meet defined
average employment levels or terminates operations in the Republic of Ireland,
Northern Ireland and Germany.

         On July 1, 1998, the New England Health Care Employees Pension Fund
filed a purported class action on behalf of all those who purchased FTL, Inc.
Class A Common Stock and publicly traded options between July 24, 1996 and
September 5, 1997 (the "Class Period") against the Company and William F.
Farley, Bernhard Hansen, Richard C. Lappin, G. William Newton, Burgess D. Ridge,
Larry K. Switzer and John D. Wigodsky, each of whom is a current or former
officer of the Company, in the United States District Court for the Western
District of Kentucky (the "New England Action"). The plaintiff claims that the
defendants engaged in conduct violating Section 10(b) of the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934, as amended (the "Act"), and that the Company and Mr. Farley are
also liable under Section 20(a) of the Act. According to the plaintiff, the
Company, with the knowledge and assistance of the individual defendants, made
certain material misrepresentations and failed to disclose certain material
facts about the Company's condition and prospects during the Class Period,
causing the plaintiff and the class to buy Company stock or options at
artificially inflated prices. The plaintiff also alleges that during the Class
Period, the individual defendants sold stock of the Company while possessing
material non-public information. The plaintiff asks for unspecified amounts as
damages, interest and costs and ancillary relief. The defendants filed a motion
to dismiss the action, which was denied. The defendants filed a motion to change
venue from Bowling Green, Kentucky, to Chicago, Illinois. That motion has been
denied. All defendants have filed an answer to the complaint. Discovery has been
initiated against the individual defendants and against certain third-parties.
The Company filed a motion in the Bankruptcy Court seeking to enjoin further
prosecution of the New England Action pending the consummation of a plan of
reorganization. The Company and counsel for the plaintiff have reached
agreement, subject to documentation and approval of the Bankruptcy Court, to
stay the New England Action at least until January 15, 2001, subject to certain
limited document discovery against non-parties (other than any current or former
officers and directors) being permitted to proceed. Also, the plaintiffs may
amend the complaint to add additional parties. The action is not proceeding
against the Company at this time due to the automatic stay in the bankruptcy
cases.

         Management believes that the suit is without merit, and management and
the Company intend to defend it vigorously. Management believes, based on
information currently available, that the ultimate resolution of this litigation
will not have a material adverse effect on the financial condition or results of
the operations of the Company.

         In March and April 2000, eight putative class actions were filed on
behalf of all those who purchased Fruit of the Loom, Inc. Class A common stock
between September 28, 1998 and November 4, 1999 against William F. Farley and G.
William Newton, each of whom is a current or former officer of the Company, in
the United States District Court for the Western District of Kentucky. The
lawsuits contain virtually identical allegations and assert the same causes of
action under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Act"). The
plaintiffs claim that the defendants engaged in conduct violating Section 10(b)
of the Act, and that Mr. Farley is also liable under Section 20(a) of the Act.
According to the plaintiffs in each action, the defendants made certain material
misrepresentations and failed to disclose certain material facts about the
Company's condition and prospects during the alleged class period, causing the
plaintiffs and the class to purchase Company stock at artificially inflated
prices. The plaintiffs ask for unspecified amounts as to damages, interest and
costs and ancillary relief.

         The eight putative class action lawsuits are: i) Bernard Fidel v.
William Farley, et al., Civil Action No. 1:00 CV-48M (W.D. Ky.), filed on March
22, 2000; ii) Tom Maiden v. William Farley, et al., Civil Action No. 1:00 CV-49M
(W.D. Ky.), filed on March 27, 2000; iii) Adele Brody v. William Farley, et al.,
Civil Action No. 1:00 CV-50M (W.D. Ky.), filed on March 27, 2000; iv) Gregory
Nespole v. William Farley, et al., Civil Action No. 1:00 CV-53M (W.D. Ky.),
filed on March 29, 2000; v) Deborah Dyckman v. William Farley, et al., Civil
Action No. 1:00 CV-55M (W.D. Ky.), filed on March 30, 2000; vi) The Ezra
Charitable Trust v. William Farley, et al., Civil Action No. 1:00 CV-56M (W.D.
Ky.), filed on March 30, 2000; vii) Steven Clinton v. William Farley, et al.,
Civil Action No. 1:00 CV-59M (W.D. Ky.), filed on March 31, 2000; viii) Francis
Olearczyk v. William Farley, et al., Civil Action No. 1:00 CV-79M (W.D. Ky.),
filed on April 27, 2000. The Company filed a motion in the Bankruptcy Court to
stay these putative class actions pending consummation of a plan of
reorganization. The Company and counsel for the plaintiffs in the putative class
actions have reached agreement, subject to documentation and approval of the
Bankruptcy Court, to stay the putative class actions at least until January 15,
2001, with the following exceptions:

         (a)  the plaintiffs shall be permitted to file amended complaints;

         (b)  the parties may pursue the selection of a lead plaintiff, class
              certification and consolidation of any of the actions;

         (c)  the time for defendants to answer or move with respect to any
              complaint shall be extended to October 31, 2000; and

         (d)  the parties may pursue document discovery, subject to limitations,
              of certain non-parties other than the Company or current or former
              officers or directors.

         10. The Company's 87/8% senior notes due April 2006 ("87/8% Senior
Notes") are fully and unconditionally guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis,
jointly and severally, by each of the Company's principal, wholly-owned domestic
subsidiaries (the "Guarantor Subsidiaries"). Substantially all of the Company's
operating income and cash flow is generated by its subsidiaries. As a result,
funds necessary to meet the Company's debt service obligations are provided in
part by distributions or advances from its subsidiaries. Under certain
circumstances, contractual and legal restrictions, as well as the financial
condition and operating requirements of the Company's subsidiaries could limit
the Company's ability to obtain cash from its subsidiaries for the purpose of
meeting its debt service obligations. There are currently no significant
restrictions on the ability of the Guarantor Subsidiaries to make distributions
to the Company.

         The supplemental guarantor condensed consolidating financial statements
present:

                  (a) Supplemental condensed consolidating balance sheets as of
         July 1, 2000 and January 1, 2000, and supplemental condensed
         consolidating summaries of operations and cash flows for the six months
         ended July 1, 2000 and July 3, 1999;

                  (b) The non-guarantor subsidiaries combined;

                  (c) The Guarantor Subsidiaries combined, with investments in
         non-guarantor subsidiaries accounted for using the equity method and
         with net assets of discontinued operations segregated;

                  (d) Fruit of the Loom, Inc. with investments in subsidiaries
         accounted for using the equity method; and

                  (e) Elimination entries necessary to consolidate the Company
         and all of its subsidiaries.

         Separate financial statements of individual Guarantor Subsidiaries are
not presented because the Guarantor Subsidiaries are jointly, severally and
unconditionally liable under the guarantees, are wholly-owned by the Company,
management has determined that they are not material to investors and the
Company believes the supplemental guarantor/non-guarantor condensed
consolidating financial statements as presented are more meaningful in
understanding the financial position of the Company and its Guarantor
Subsidiaries.

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

FORWARD LOOKING INFORMATION

         The Company desires to provide investors with meaningful and useful
information. Therefore, this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains certain
statements that describe the Company's beliefs concerning future business
conditions and the outlook for the Company based on currently available
information. Wherever possible, the Company has identified these "forward
looking" statements (as defined in Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of
1934) by words such as "anticipates," "believes," "estimates," "expects," and
similar expressions. These forward looking statements are subject to risks,
uncertainties and other factors that could cause the Company's actual results,
performance or achievements to differ materially from those expressed in, or
implied by, these statements. These risks, uncertainties and other factors
include, but are not limited to, the following: the ability of the Company to
continue operating as a going concern and successfully emerge from bankruptcy
pursuant to a reorganization plan that provides for the Company to remain
substantially intact, the Company's ability to successfully execute its
corporate strategy in a competitive marketplace, the financial strength of the
retail industry, particularly the mass merchant channel, the level of consumer
spending for apparel, the amount of sales of the Company's activewear
screenprint products, the competitive pricing environment within the basic
apparel segment of the apparel industry, the Company's ability to develop,
market and sell new products, the Company's successful planning and execution of
production necessary to maintain inventories at levels sufficient to meet
customer demand, the Company's effective income tax rate, the success of planned
advertising, marketing and promotional campaigns, international activities and
the resolution of legal proceedings and other contingent liabilities, and
weather conditions in the locations in which the Company manufactures and sells
its products. The Company assumes no obligation to update publicly any forward
looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or
otherwise.

CHAPTER 11 FILING

         The Company believes that its vertically-integrated organization
historically made it one of the lowest-cost producers in its industry. To
maintain its low cost position, the Company relocated substantially all of its
domestic assembly operations offshore. In 1999, approximately 99% of the
Company's garments for sale in the United States were assembled offshore
compared to approximately 12% at the beginning of 1995. A number of difficulties
attended this transition. Prior operating management of the Company made the
decision in early 1998 to reduce inventories, close two distribution facilities
and one of the Company's knitting operations. The decision to reduce inventory
levels was accompanied by the temporary shutdown in the fourth quarter of 1998
of a number of the Company's textile plants. Upon resuming production in the
first quarter of 1999, the level of irregular inventory increased as a result of
hiring inexperienced workers. The deficiency in output from these plants and the
unexpectedly strong demand for key retail and activewear products resulted in
shortages of available products, which negatively impacted sales and required
the Company to incur additional costs (including freight) in an attempt to
maintain service levels with its major customers. The decision to close one of
the Company's knitting operations extended the time required to produce
necessary inventory and exacerbated the problem. In order to maintain customer
service at acceptable levels, the Company increased its usage of external
contractors, overtime labor, and time-sensitive and expensive methods of
transporting materials and products, all of which resulted in significant
unfavorable manufacturing variances. Accordingly, the Company's financial
performance and cash flow in 1999 reflect these difficulties.

ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
         OF OPERATIONS - (CONTINUED)

         On February 23, 2000 the Bankruptcy Court approved the Company's plan
to discontinue the operations of Pro Player which had historically been
unprofitable. In accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, Pro
Player has been treated as a discontinued operation in the accompanying
condensed consolidated financial statements. In connection with the Company's
decision to discontinue the operations of Pro Player, $47,500,000 was accrued
for the loss on disposal of the assets of Pro Player including a provision of
$10,400,000 for expected operating losses during the phase-out period from
February 24, 2000 through August 24, 2000. The Company currently estimates the
phase-out period will continue until the end of the third quarter.

         In June 2000, the Company entered into an agreement to sell
substantially all of the assets of its Gitano Fashions Ltd. subsidiary to VF
Corp. for $17,500,000 which approximated book value. The transaction was
consummated on July 7, 2000. On the closing date VF Corp. acquired the Gitano
trademark and all of the Company's Gitano jeanswear inventory. In connection
with the sale of inventory, the Company has agreed to provide distribution
services to VF Corp. through December 2000.

         The Company continues to review the divestiture of certain non-core
assets. A gain or loss may be recorded on the divestitures but the amount cannot
be determined at this time. In addition, restructuring costs may be incurred
which the Company is unable to quantify at this time.

         On December 29, 1999, the Debtors filed voluntary petitions for relief
under Chapter 11 and are presently operating their business as
debtors-in-possession subject to the jurisdiction of the Bankruptcy Court. For
further discussion of the Chapter 11 cases, see Notes to Condensed Consolidated
Financial Statements.

         Currently, there is no Company or creditor sponsored plan of
reorganization. There can be no assurance that any plan of reorganization will
be confirmed under the Bankruptcy Code. If the Company is unable to obtain
confirmation of a plan of reorganization, its creditors or equity security
holders may seek other alternatives for the Company, which include soliciting
bids for the Company or parts thereof through an auction process or possible
liquidation. There can be no assurance that upon consummation of a plan of
reorganization there will be improvement in the Company's financial condition or
results of operations. The Company has, and will continue to incur professional
fees and other cash demands typically incurred in bankruptcy.

         The Company's consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a
going concern basis which contemplates continuity of operations, realization of
assets and liquidation of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of
business. The Chapter 11 filing, related circumstances, and the losses from
operations, raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a
going concern. The appropriateness of reporting on the going concern basis is
dependent upon, among other things, confirmation of a plan of reorganization,
future profitable operations, and the ability to generate sufficient cash from
operations and financing sources to meet obligations (see LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL
RESOURCES and Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements). As a result
of the filing and related circumstances, however, such realization of assets and
liquidation of liabilities are subject to significant uncertainty. While under
the protection of Chapter 11, the Debtors may sell or otherwise dispose of
assets and liquidate or settle liabilities for amounts other than those
reflected in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements.
Further, a plan of reorganization could materially change the amounts reported
in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements. The condensed
consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the
recoverability of the value of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and
classifications of liabilities that might be necessary as a consequence of a
plan of reorganization.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

         The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the
accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes for
the period ended July 1, 2000 and the Company's consolidated financial
statements and related notes contained in the Company's Annual Report on Form
10-K for the year ended January 1, 2000.

         SPECIAL CHARGES. During the five years in the period ended January 1,
2000, the Company moved substantially all of its sewing and finishing operations
to locations in the Caribbean, Mexico and Central America as part of its
strategy to reduce its cost structure and remain a low cost producer in the U.S.
markets it serves. In the third and fourth quarters of 1999, the Company
recorded charges for provisions and losses on the sale of close-out and
irregular inventory to reflect the reduced market prices for these categories of
inventory, costs related to impairment of certain European manufacturing
facilities, severance, a debt guarantee and other asset write-downs and
reserves. In the fourth quarter of 1997, the Company recorded charges for costs
related to the closing and disposal of a number of domestic manufacturing and
distribution facilities, impairment of manufacturing equipment and other assets
and certain European manufacturing and distribution facilities, and other costs
associated with the Company's world-wide restructuring of manufacturing and
distribution facilities. During 1995, the Company took several actions in an
effort to substantially reduce the Company's cost structure, streamline
operations and further improve customer service. These actions included the
closing of certain domestic manufacturing operations, further consolidation of
the Company's Gitano and licensed sportswear operations and the accelerated
migration of some sewing operations to lower cost, offshore locations. No
amounts were charged to results of operations during the first six months of
2000 or the first six months of 1999 related to the above noted special charges.

         OF OPERATIONS - (CONTINUED)

         Net sales increased $159,800,000 in the second quarter and $390,300,000
in the first six months of 2000 compared to the corresponding periods of 1999;
however, net sales to unrelated parties decreased $71,700,000 or 13.8% in the
second quarter and $67,400,000 or 7.6% in the first six months of 2000 compared
to 1999. Retail product sales decreased $27,400,000 and $16,900,000 in the
second quarter and first six months of 2000 compared to 1999. Of the total,
men's and boys' underwear sales decreased by $17,000,000 or 9.9% in the second
quarter and $8,200,000 or 2.9% in the first six months of 2000 compared to
corresponding periods of 1999. Shortfalls in men's and boys' underwear sales
related to Fruit of the Loom branded basic men's and boys' cotton products,
private label, BVD and Munsingwear. Intimate apparel sales increased $900,000 or
4.0% in the second quarter but decreased $6,400,000 or 14.7% in the first six
months of 2000 compared to corresponding periods of 1999. The decrease in the
six month period related to reduced sales of Nylon and Close Comfort product
styles. Casualwear sales decreased $6,000,000 or 17.1% in the second quarter and
$200,000 or 0.3% in the first six months of 2000 compared to corresponding
periods of 1999. These decreases reflect a reduction in point of sale at a major
customer for Tees and deferral of Fleece shipments until the 3rd quarter by a
major customer. A portion of the decrease in retail is in products that the
Company will no longer offer in the future. Activewear sales decreased
$17,800,000 or 10.3% in the second quarter and $3,500,000 or 1.2% in the first
six months of 2000 compared to corresponding periods of 1999. Activewear Tees
and Fleece accounted for $13,200,000 and $2,500,000 of the second quarter
decrease. Lower shipments of Activewear Tees occurred due to the impact of poor
1999 service along with increased competitive activity. Also, the Company
reduced its product offerings of Activewear products. In addition, the reduction
in sales resulted in part from a decrease in selling prices in the second
quarter and first six months of 2000 as compared to the corresponding periods of
1999; however, activewear prices increased in the first six months of 2000
compared to the fourth quarter of 1999. The Activewear Fleece decrease in the
second quarter resulted from a temporary lack of availability of certain
products. European sales declined $12,400,000 or 20.7% in the second quarter and
$23,000,000 or 18.4% in the first six months of 2000 compared to corresponding
periods of 1999. These decreases were due primarily to unfavorable foreign
currency impacts resulting from the devaluation of the Euro in relation to the
U.S. dollar, price decreases on retail and activewear products and lower volume
of retail products. The reduction in retail volume reflected the continuing
impact of the Company's decision to pursue the up-market retail channel in 1999.
The European sales decline in the six month period was partially offset by
additional sales of closeouts. Closeouts accounted for approximately 59% of
European retail sales in the first quarter of 2000. Sales of other products
represent yarn and denim sales which the Company effectively discontinued
selling subsequent to 1999.

         Segment net sales were as follows (in millions of dollars).

         Gross earnings decreased $89,900,000 in the second quarter and
$180,300,000 in the first six months of 2000 compared to corresponding periods
of 1999. Gross earnings, however, on sales to unrelated parties decreased
$63,700,000 or 53.8% in the second quarter of 2000 and $126,300,000 or 62.3% in
the first six months of 2000 compared to corresponding periods of 1999. Gross
margin on sales to unrelated parties declined 10.6 percentage points to 12.3% of
sales for the second quarter and 13.5 percentage points to 9.3% of sales for the
first six months of 2000. Amounts charged to cost of sales in the first six
months of 2000 represent costs incurred in the second half of 1999 (fourth
quarter of 1999 for the second quarter of 2000) when the inventory that was sold
in the first six months of 2000 was manufactured. In the second quarter of 2000,
higher 1999 production costs accounted for $21,700,000 of the decline in gross
earnings and price decreases (principally domestic activewear and Europe)
aggregated $7,800,000. In the first six months of 2000, higher 1999 production
costs accounted for $72,800,000 of the decline in gross earnings and price
decreases (principally domestic activewear and Europe) aggregated $14,400,000.
Management believes production costs in the first six months of 2000 were
significantly less than the manufacturing costs incurred in the second half of
1999. Accordingly, the Company expects an improvement in gross margin in the
third and fourths quarters of 2000. The Company provided an additional
$6,000,000 for physical inventory losses in the first six months of 2000 as
compared to the first six months of 1999. For both the second quarter and first
six months of 2000, lower volume and unfavorable mix decreased gross earnings by
$13,000,000 in the second quarter and $8,900,000 in the first six months of 2000
compared with corresponding periods of 1999.

         The Company experienced an operating loss in the second quarter of 2000
on sales to unrelated parties of $11,400,000 compared to operating earnings on
sales to unrelated parties of $26,600,000 in the second quarter of 1999. For the
first six months of 2000, the Company experienced an operating loss on sales to
unrelated parties of $59,400,000 compared to operating earnings on sales to
unrelated parties of $36,600,000 in the first six months of 1999. Offsetting the
decrease in gross earnings were lower selling, general, and administrative
expenses of $25,600,000 in the second quarter and $30,300,000 in the first six
months of 2000 compared to the corresponding periods of 1999. These reductions
were principally due to expenditures for Y2K remediation in 1999 and lower
advertising and promotion, legal and professional and office expenses in 2000.
In addition, the consolidation of the Company's sales and marketing organization
resulted in lower selling, general and administrative expenses in the second
quarter and first six months of 2000. Selling, general and administrative
expenses as a percent of net sales to unrelated parties decreased 3.0 percentage
points to 13.5% in the second quarter and 2.2 percentage points to 15.1% in the
first six months of 2000.

         Segment operating earnings were as follows (in millions of dollars).

ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
         OF OPERATIONS - (CONTINUED)

         Interest expense increased $7,100,000 to $31,300,000 in the second
quarter and $15,400,000 in the first six months of 2000 to $60,600,000 compared
to the corresponding periods of 1999. The increase reflected a higher average
interest rate. The Company also had a higher average borrowing level reflecting
the elimination of the Company's accounts receivable securitization in the
fourth quarter of 1999. Although the average borrowing level was higher, the
Company did not record interest on $248,500,000 of unsecured 8 7/8% senior notes
(the "Unsecured Notes") in the first six months of 2000 in accordance with SOP
90-7. The Unsecured Notes are included in Liabilities Subject to Compromise in
the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet.

         Other income (expense)-net in the second quarter of 2000 decreased
$5,900,000 in the second quarter and $3,700,000 in the first six months of 2000
compared to the corresponding periods of 1999. Principal components of net other
expense in the second quarter of 2000 included adequate protection payments
(interest payments) in the amount of $1,600,000 related to the guarantee of
personal indebtedness of the Company's former Chairman, bank fees of $900,000
and unfavorable currency translation of $700,000. These unfavorable impacts were
partially offset by a $3,000,000 gain on marketable equity securities. Principal
components of net other income in the second quarter of 1999 included an
$8,000,000 gain on the sale of a facility and a $400,000 gain on marketable
equity securities. These favorable impacts were partially offset by asset
securitization expense of $2,100,000, a write off of debt premium fees of
$2,000,000 and bank fees of $1,000,000. Principal components of net other income
in the first six months of 2000 included a $15,300,000 gain on the sale of
marketable equity securities partially offset by adequate protection payments
(interest payments) in the amount of $2,900,000 related to the guarantee of
personal indebtedness of the Company's former Chairman, bank fees of $1,600,000
and unfavorable currency translation of $2,800,000. Principal components of net
other income in the first six months of 1999 included an $10,200,000 gain on the
sale of two facilities, a $3,900,000 gain on previously settled litigation and a
$3,900,000 gain on marketable equity securities. These favorable impacts were
partially offset by asset securitization expense of $4,600,000, a write off of
debt premium fees of $2,000,000 and bank fees of $2,300,000.

         Reorganization items represent costs incurred by the Company during the
Chapter 11 cases. The reorganization items in the second quarter and first six
months of 2000 aggregated $9,500,000 and $19,000,000, respectively, and
consisted of professional fees, including legal, accounting and other services
provided to the Company during the Chapter 11 cases. At July 1, 2000, $9,900,000
of the $19,000,000 incurred in the first six months of 2000 is accrued and
included in Other accounts payable and accrued expenses in the accompanying
condensed consolidated balance sheet.

         The Company's income tax provision for the second quarter and first six
months of 2000 consists of a provision for European income taxes. The Company
recorded no U.S. tax benefit at the U.S. statutory rate of 35% on the pretax
loss in the second quarter and first six months of 2000 primarily because the
Company is unable to realize any current benefit from the operating loss through
carrybacks to prior years, is unable under the Chapter 11 cases to implement
certain income tax planning strategies and expects an operating loss for 2000.

         As a result of the Chapter 11 cases, the utilization of net operating
loss carryforwards and tax credit carryforwards of the Company may be limited
under the Internal Revenue Code. The Company is unable at the present time to
quantify what, if any, limitation may apply to the tax carryforward items.

         The Company's effective income tax benefit for the first six months of
1999 reflected a provision projected for the full year for interest on prior
years' U.S. Federal income taxes and goodwill amortization, a portion of which
is not deductible for U.S. Federal income taxes.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

         FTL, Inc. and substantially all of its subsidiaries, as
debtors-in-possession, are parties to a Postpetition Credit Agreement dated as
of December 29, 1999 (the "DIP Facility") with Bank of America as agent. The DIP
Facility has been approved by the Bankruptcy Court and includes a total
commitment of $625,000,000 which is comprised of revolving notes of $475,000,000
and a term note of $150,000,000. Letter of Credit obligations under the revolver
portion of the DIP Facility are limited to $175,000,000. The DIP Facility is
intended to provide the Company with the cash and liquidity to conduct its
operations and pay for merchandise shipments at normal levels during the course
of the Chapter 11 cases.

         The maximum borrowings, excluding the term commitments, under the DIP
Facility are limited to the sum of 85% of eligible accounts receivable, 50%-65%
of eligible inventory and the assets existing as of the Petition Date. Various
percentages of the proceeds from the sales of assets (as defined in the DIP
Facility) will permanently reduce the commitments under the DIP Facility.
Qualification of accounts receivable and inventory items as "eligible" is
subject to unilateral change at the discretion of the lenders. Availability,
based on eligible accounts receivable and inventory, under the DIP Facility at
July 28, 2000 was $302,800,000.

         The lenders under the DIP Facility have a super-priority administrative
expense claim against the estates of the Debtors. The DIP Facility expires on
June 30, 2001. The DIP Facility is secured by substantially all of the assets of
FTL, Ltd. and its subsidiaries and a perfected pledge of stock of substantially
all FTL, Ltd.'s subsidiaries, including those subsidiaries that did not file
Chapter 11. The DIP Facility contains restrictive covenants including, among
other things, the maintenance of minimum earnings before interest, taxes,
depreciation and amortization and restructuring expenses as defined, limitations
on the incurrence of additional indebtedness, liens, contingent obligations,
sale of assets, capital expenditures and a prohibition on paying dividends. The
DIP loan limits annual capital expenditures to a maximum of $46,000,000. The
Company expects to submit a reorganization plan prior to the expiration of the
DIP Facility. A component of that plan will be a financing agreement to succeed
the DIP Facility.

         Cash used for operating activities totaled $84,800,000 in the first six
months of 2000 compared with $93,900,000 used in the first six months of 1999.
The current year period benefited from a reduction in inventory and from
$20,300,000 in net proceeds from the liquidation of the Pro Player business.
Inventory increased in the first six months of 1999, and discontinued operations
used $35,100,000.

         OF OPERATIONS - (CONTINUED)

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES (CONTINUED)

         In the first six months of 2000, the primary factors in reconciling
from the loss from continuing operations of $189,300,000 to cash used for
operating activities of $84,800,000 were a decrease in working capital of
$67,300,000, depreciation and amortization of $54,800,000, and cash flows of
$20,300,000 from discontinued operations, partially offset by a gain on
marketable equity securities of $15,800,000 and $9,100,000 of reorganization
payments.

         In the first six months of 1999, the primary factors in reconciling
from the loss from continuing operations of $700,000 to cash used for operating
activities totaling $93,900,000 were an increase in working capital of
$68,900,000, cash flows of $35,100,000 used by discontinued operations, and
currency translation of $12,700,000, partially offset by depreciation and
amortization of $59,900,000.

         Net cash provided by investing activities in the first six months of
2000 was $10,400,000 compared with cash used for investing activities totaling
$17,700,000 in the first six months of 1999. Capital expenditures were lower
($4,700,000 in the first six months of 2000 compared with $21,700,000 in the
first six months of 1999). In addition, proceeds from the sale of marketable
equity securities aggregated $14,100,000 in the first six months of 2000. Net
cash used for investing activities in the first six months of 1999 included
payments of $8,400,000 under the minimum value guarantee provision of the
Company's synthetic lease agreement and a repayment of $6,800,000 of employment
grants under agreement with the Republic of Ireland. Capital spending, primarily
to support offshore assembly operations, is anticipated to approximate
$36,000,000 in 2000.

         Net cash provided by financing activities was $84,300,000 in the first
six months of 2000 (consisting of net proceeds from DIP financing), compared
with net cash provided by financing activities of $129,800,000 in the first six
months of 1999 due to the unfavorable operating and investing cash flows.

         In December 1996, the Company entered into a three-year receivables
purchase agreement that enabled it to sell to a third party up to a $250,000,000
undivided interest in a defined pool of its trade accounts receivable. The
maximum amount outstanding as defined under the agreement varied based upon the
level of eligible receivables. The agreement was refinanced in the fourth
quarter of 1999 and increased to $275,000,000 and subsequently terminated with
the Company's bankruptcy filing. Consequently, none of the Company's trade
receivables were securitized at July 1, 2000. Under the agreement, approximately
$283,300,000 of eligible net receivables at July 3, 1999 were sold to the
Company's unconsolidated receivable financing subsidiary, reducing consolidated
notes and accounts receivable. Proceeds of approximately $246,300,000 from the
ultimate purchaser outstanding at July 3, 1999 were used to reduce borrowings
under the Company's revolving lines of credit.

         The Company believes that cash on hand, amounts available under the DIP
Facility and funds from operations will enable the Company to meet its current
liquidity and capital expenditure requirements during the Bankruptcy cases,
although no assurances can be given in this regard. Until a plan of
reorganization is approved, the Company's long-term liquidity and the adequacy
of its capital resources cannot be determined.

ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
         OF OPERATIONS - (CONTINUED)

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES (CONTINUED)

         Inherent in a successful plan of reorganization is a capital structure
which permits the Company to generate sufficient cash flow after reorganization
to meet its restructured obligations and fund the current obligations of the
Company. Under the Bankruptcy Code, the rights and treatment of pre-petition
creditors and stockholders may be substantially altered. At this time, it is not
possible to predict the outcome of the Chapter 11 cases, in general, or the
effects of such cases on the business of the Company or on the interests of
creditors and stockholders. Management believes that it is highly unlikely that
current equity security holders will receive any distribution under any
reorganization plan as a result of the issuance of new equity to existing
creditors.

         The Company's debt instruments, principally its bank agreements,
contain covenants restricting its ability to sell assets, incur debt, pay
dividends and make investments and requiring the Company to maintain certain
financial ratios. The Company is in default under the debt instruments.
