              NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                   (Unaudited)


1.  THE BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Description of Business

         Celebrity, Inc. ("Celebrity" or the "Company") is a supplier of high
quality artificial flowers, ficus trees and plants, and other decorative
accessories to mass market retailers, craft store chains, wholesale florists and
other retailers throughout North America and Europe. Celebrity imports and/or

Exotics, Inc. ("India Exotics"), Magicsilk, Inc. ("Magicsilk"), Star Wholesale
Florist, Inc. ("Star Wholesale") and Value Florist Supplies, Inc. ("Value

         The accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements are
unaudited and, in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments that are
necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position and results of
operations for the periods presented. All of such adjustments are of a normal
and recurring nature. The results of operations for the periods presented are
not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the entire year.
The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction
with the financial statement disclosures contained in the Company's Annual
Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 1998.

2.  SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Revenue recognition

The Company recognizes revenue from merchandise sales at the time of shipment.
Title to merchandise transfers at point of shipment. Damaged or defective
products may be returned to the Company for replacement or credit. The effects
of returns and discounts are estimated and recorded at time of shipment.

Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include short-term investments with original
maturities of three months or less.

Inventories

Inventories are valued at the lower of average cost or market. Costs include
material, labor and overhead.



                                      -6-
<PAGE>   8


Property, plant and equipment

Property, plant and equipment are recorded at cost. Depreciation is computed by
the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets as
follows:

<TABLE>
<CAPTION>
                                              ESTIMATED USEFUL LIFE
                                              ---------------------
<S>                                           <C>
Furniture, fixtures and equipment             3 to 10 years
Transportation equipment                      3 to 5 years
Buildings                                     20 to 31.5 years
</TABLE>

Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Renewals and
betterments are capitalized and amortized over the lesser of the estimated
useful life or the term of the lease.

Intangible assets

Intangible assets consist primarily of goodwill and a customer list related to
purchase acquisitions, which are being amortized using the straight-line method
over 20 and 10 years, respectively.

Long-lived assets

The Company periodically reviews long-lived assets, including good will and
customer lists, for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances
indicate that the carrying amount of such assets may not be recoverable. Assets
are grouped at the lowest level for which there are identifiable cash flows
that are largely independent of the cash flows of other groups of assets. In
such cases, if the future undiscounted cash flows of the underlying assets are
less than the carrying amount, then the carrying amount of the long-lived asset
will be adjusted for impairment to a level commensurate with a discounted cash
flow analysis of the underlying assets.

During the fourth quarter of fiscal 1998, the Company decided to exit the India
Exotics business that was acquired in fiscal 1995. As a result of this decision,
certain long-lived assets were written down to their estimated fair value less
cost to sell.

Income taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 109 ("SFAS 109"), Accounting for Income Taxes, which
prescribes an asset and liability method that requires the recognition of
deferred tax assets and liabilities for the anticipated future tax consequences
of temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts and
the tax bases of assets and liabilities. The Company periodically reviews the
realizability of its deferred tax assets and records valuation allowances, as
appropriate, when realization of the deferred tax asset is not likely.

Foreign currency translation

All balance sheet asset and liability accounts of Celebrity Hong Kong are
translated to U.S. dollars using the rates of exchange in effect at the
respective balance sheet dates. Celebrity Hong Kong statements of operations are
translated at exchange rates approximating the actual rates on the dates of the
transactions. Cumulative translation adjustments are included as a separate
component of shareholders' equity.

Use of estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent
assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported
amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results
could differ significantly from those estimates.

Recent accounting pronouncements

In June 1997, Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.130, Reporting
Comprehensive Income ("FAS 130"), was issued and is effective for fiscal years
beginning after December 15, 1997. FAS 130 establishes standards for reporting
and display of comprehensive income and its components in a full set of
general-purpose financial statements. The Company believes that the adoption of
this standard will not have a material effect on the Company's consolidated
results of operations or financial position.

In June 1997, Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 131, Disclosures
About Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information ("FAS 131"), was issued
and is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1997. FAS 131
establishes standards for the way that public business enterprises report
information about operating segments in annual financial statements. The Company
believes the adoption of this standard will not affect its reportable segments.

3.  INVENTORY

Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or market. The Company establishes
valuation reserves for slow moving, discontinued or obsolete products. The
amounts of the valuation reserves are determined by estimating the amount of
mark down required to value those products at fair market value. The balance of
inventory reserves at December 31, 1998 was $735,000. The composition of
inventories is as follows (in thousands):

<TABLE>

                            December 31,    June 30,

                              =======        =======
</TABLE>

4.  1998 SPECIAL CHARGES

         The 1998 special charges included the accrual of the remaining payments
due pursuant to a settlement agreement and a noncompetition agreement related to
the India Exotics acquisition ($614,000), and the accrual of a contractual lease
termination obligation ($206,000), both of which were included as components of
a restructuring charge recorded in the fourth quarter of fiscal 1998.
Additionally, a $1,128,000 inventory lower of cost or market reserve was
established as a result of the decision to exit the India Exotics business and
certain other underperforming product lines, which reserve was included as a
component of cost of goods sold in the fourth quarter of fiscal 1998. At
December 31, 1998, $823,000 of the reserve remained unutilized. There were no
amounts reclassified from the reserve or released from the reserve. The chart
below summarizes reserve activities.

</TABLE>


5.  EARNINGS PER SHARE

         The Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.
128, "Earnings Per Share" effective December 31, 1997. For all periods presented
there were no differences between basic and diluted earnings per share.

6.  CREDIT FACILITY

         During the quarter ended December 31, 1998, certain provisions of the
Company's revolving credit facility were amended, including a reduction in the
maximum amount of the facility from $31.5 million to $26.5 million, and a
rescheduling of the maturity date of a $1.0 million seasonal overadvance. The
maturity date of the seasonal overadvance originally provided by the lender in
July 1998 was extended to March 1, 1999, with an amortization period beginning
February 8, 1999. The facility reduction from $31.5 million to $26.5 million was
proposed by the Company to reduce commitment fees and other financing costs. Due
to lower levels of inventory carried by the Company, management concluded it was
unlikely that the higher credit line would be utilized in the near future.

7.  CANCELLATION OF CERTAIN COMMON STOCK AND SUBSCRIPTIONS RECEIVABLE

         During the quarter ended December 31, 1998, the Board of Directors of
the Company approved the cancellation of (i) certain common stock, par value
$.01 per share, of the Company ("Common Stock") sold to Company employees in
prior years, as well as the related subscriptions receivable, and (ii) all
Common Stock held in treasury.

8.  REVERSE STOCK SPLIT

         Subsequent to the end of the first quarter of fiscal 1999, on January
29, 1999, the Company filed a definitive proxy statement with the Securities and
Exchange Commission related to a special meeting of its shareholders that is
scheduled to be held February 26, 1999. The record date for the special meeting
was January 25, 1999. The purpose of the special meeting is to request the
shareholders' approval of certain 



                                      -9-

<PAGE>   11

amendments to the Company's Articles of Incorporation, the primary one of which
will effect a four-to-one reverse stock split of the Common Stock. The reverse
stock split is being proposed in order to ensure that the minimum $1.00 per
share continued listing requirement for the Common Stock on the Nasdaq SmallCap
Market will be satisfied. On February 8, 1999, the closing price of the Common
Stock on the Nasdaq SmallCap Market was $.75 per share.

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

CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES THAT MAY AFFECT FUTURE
RESULTS

         This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements
about the business, financial condition and prospects of Celebrity. The actual
results of operations of Celebrity could differ materially from those indicated
by the forward-looking statements because of various risks and uncertainties,
including without limitation (i) changes in customer demand for the Company's
products at the retail level, (ii) trends in the retail and wholesale decorative
accessories industries, (iii) inventory risks attributable to possible changes
in customer demand, compounded by extended lead times in ordering the Company's
products from overseas suppliers and the Company's strategy of maintaining a
high merchandise in stock percentage, (iv) the effects of economic conditions,
including the economic instability in the Far East, (v) supply and/or shipment
constraints or difficulties, (vi) the impact of competitors' pricing, (vii) the
effects of the Company's accounting policies, (viii) changes in foreign trade
regulations, including changes in duty rates, possible trade sanctions, import
quotas and other restrictions imposed by U.S. and foreign governments, (ix) the
effects of the assumption of control over Hong Kong by the People's Republic of
China (the "PRC") on July 1, 1997, (x) risks associated with a heavy reliance on
products coming from manufacturers in the PRC, (xi) currency risks, including
changes in the relationship between the U.S. dollar and the Hong Kong dollar,
and (xii) other risks detailed in the Company's Securities and Exchange
Commission filings. These risks and uncertainties are beyond the ability of the
Company to control, and in many cases, the Company cannot predict the risks and
uncertainties that could cause its actual results to differ materially from
those indicated by the forward-looking statements. When used herein, the words
"believes," "expects," "plans," "intends" and similar expressions as they relate
to the Company or its management generally are intended to identify
forward-looking statements.

THREE MONTHS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1998, COMPARED WITH THREE MONTHS ENDED 
DECEMBER 31, 1997

         Net sales decreased 13.0% from $29.9 million in the second quarter of
fiscal 1998 to $26.0 million in the second quarter of fiscal 1999. The sales
decrease was attributable to lower sales in domestic distribution divisions in
the quarter, including lower revenues resulting from the Company's decision in
June 1998 to exit the India Exotics business. Operations in Hong Kong generated
sales increases for the quarter, as the shortage of shipping containers in the
Far East that affected first quarter fiscal 1999 sales was remedied in the
second quarter of fiscal 1999.

         Cost of goods sold decreased 17.5% from $22.9 million in the second
quarter of fiscal 1998 to $18.9 million in the second quarter of fiscal 1999.
The decrease was primarily attributable to the lower sales volume in the second
quarter of fiscal 1999. Cost of goods sold as a percentage of net sales was 73%
in the second quarter of fiscal 1999, compared with 77% in the prior year. The
lower cost of goods sold percentage in fiscal 1999 is attributable to an
improved mix of product sales in fiscal 1999 and expense reductions implemented
in the fourth quarter of fiscal 1998.



                                      -12-
<PAGE>   14


         Selling expenses increased from $1.2 million in the second quarter of
fiscal 1998 to $1.4 million in the second quarter of fiscal 1999. Selling
expenses as a percentage of net sales were 5% in the second quarter of fiscal
1999, compared with 4% in the prior year. This increase in selling expenses was
primarily attributable to the opening of a new showroom in Dallas, Texas.

         General and administrative expenses of $4.0 million in the second
quarter of fiscal 1999 decreased $1.4 million, or 25%, from $5.4 million in the
second quarter of fiscal 1998. The decrease is attributable to expense
reductions implemented in the fourth quarter of fiscal 1998. A substantial
component of the decrease  resulted from the closing of the St. Louis, Missouri
facility associated with the exit from the India Exotics business. As a
percentage of net sales, general and administrative expenses declined to 15% of
net sales in the second quarter of fiscal 1999, compared with 18% in the second
quarter of fiscal 1998.

         Depreciation and amortization expenses of $416,000 in the second
quarter of fiscal 1999 decreased from $540,000 in the second quarter of fiscal
1998. The decrease was primarily attributable to the write-off of goodwill and
other intangibles in the fourth quarter of fiscal 1998, related to exiting the
India Exotics business.


SIX MONTHS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1998, COMPARED WITH SIX MONTHS ENDED 
DECEMBER 31, 1997

         Net sales decreased 11.6% from $60.1 million in fiscal 1998 to $53.1
million in fiscal 1999. The decrease was attributable to lower sales in domestic
distribution divisions, including lower revenues resulting from the Company's
decision in June 1998 to exit the India Exotics business.

         Cost of goods sold decreased from $45.6 million in fiscal 1998 to $39.3
million in fiscal 1999. The decrease was primarily attributable to the lower
sales volume in fiscal 1999. Cost of goods sold as a percentage of net sales
decreased from 76% in fiscal 1998 to 74% in fiscal 1999. The lower cost of goods
sold percentage in fiscal 1999 was attributable to expense reductions
implemented in June 1998 and a mix of higher margin products sold in fiscal
1999, primarily resulting from the Company's decision to exit the India Exotics
business in June 1998. A substantial component of the decrease resulted from the
closing of the St. Louis, Missouri facility associated with the exit from the
India Exotics business.

         Selling expenses of $2.5 million in fiscal 1999 decreased from $2.6
million in fiscal 1998. Selling expenses as a percentage of net sales increased
from 4% in fiscal 1998 to 5% in fiscal 1999.

         General and administrative expenses decreased from $10.5 million, or
18% of net sales, in fiscal 1998, to $8.5 million, or 16% of net sales, in
fiscal 1999. The decrease is attributable to expense reductions implemented in
the fourth quarter of fiscal 1998. A substantial component of the decrease
resulted from the closing of the St. Louis, Missouri facility associated with
the exit from the India Exotics business.

         Depreciation and amortization expenses decreased from $1.1 million in
fiscal 1998 to $869,000 in fiscal 1999. The decrease was primarily attributable
to the write-off of goodwill and other intangibles in the fourth quarter of
fiscal 1998, related to exiting the India Exotics business.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

         Celebrity's sales and marketing strategy has required significant
investment in inventory and receivables. The Company follows the industry
practice of offering extended terms to qualified customers for sales of
Christmas merchandise. These sales generally take place between the months of
June and October on terms not requiring payment until December 1. The Company
has traditionally relied on borrowings under its revolving credit facility and
cash flows from operations to fund these and other working capital needs.



                                      -13-
<PAGE>   15

         The Company maintains a revolving credit facility for its Celebrity,
Cluett, Color Concepts, Star Wholesale and Value Florist operations in a maximum
amount of $26.5 million. The revolving credit facility matures January 30, 2001.
Borrowing limits under the revolving credit facility are based on specified
percentages of eligible accounts receivable and inventories. As a result of such
limits, the maximum amount the Company was eligible to borrow at December 31,
1998, was $21.0 million, and the amount outstanding under the revolving credit
facility was $19.6 million. On July 7, 1998 the Company received a $1.0 million
seasonal overadvance under its revolving credit facility. The seasonal
overadvance is scheduled to begin amortization on February 8, 1999, with the
overadvance period scheduled to expire on March 1, 1999. In addition to the
revolving credit facility, the lender has made a term loan to the Company in the
original principal amount of $3.5 million.  The term loan is payable in monthly
installments of principal of $200,000 that began May 1, 1998, and the remaining
outstanding principal balance under the term loan is due and payable upon the
earlier of (i) September 1, 1999, or (ii) the termination of the revolving
credit facility. Interest on the outstanding balance under the revolving credit
facility bears interest at a reference bank's prime rate of interest plus 1.5%
per annum, and interest on the outstanding balance of the term loan bears
interest at a rate of 12.5% per annum. Interest is payable monthly. Amounts
borrowed under the revolving credit facility and the term loan are secured by
accounts receivable, inventory, equipment, certain interests in real property,
and general intangibles (including intellectual property) of Celebrity and its
subsidiary borrowers. In addition, substantially all stock of the Company's
subsidiaries has been pledged to the lender. The revolving credit facility and
the term loan are subject to certain covenants limiting the incurrence of
indebtedness, prohibiting the payment of dividends and requiring the Company to
maintain certain financial ratios. The Company was in compliance with all
covenants at December 31, 1998.

         Celebrity Hong Kong generally makes full cash payments for products
ordered for Celebrity's account or for direct shipment to customers after the
manufacturers deliver products in Hong Kong for export. Celebrity Hong Kong
finances cash payments to its vendors through export credit facilities
established with three Hong Kong banks, each of which is guaranteed by the
Company. Generally, under the terms of these facilities each bank finances, with
recourse, export bills for specific shipments by Celebrity Hong Kong to its
customers. Each bank is reimbursed when payment is received for shipments it has
financed. At December 31, 1998, an aggregate of $3.8 million of export bills was
financed by the three banks. All of these export bills were related to direct
shipments to customers and Celebrity Hong Kong's related potential recourse
liability was accounted for as a contingent obligation. Covenants under the
Company's revolving credit facility restrict the aggregate amount of export
bills that may be financed under the export credit facilities to $7.0 million.

         In June 1997, the Company entered into a revolving credit facility with
an additional lender, which matures in June 2004. At December 31, 1998, the
outstanding balance under the facility was approximately $4.5 million. Interest
accrues on the principal amount outstanding under the facility at the rate of
LIBOR plus 2.65% per annum. Amounts borrowed under the facility are secured by
certain real estate owned by the Company, and the facility contains covenants
requiring the Company to maintain certain financial ratios; however, the lender
has waived these financial ratio covenants through June 30, 1999.

         In September 1997, the Company borrowed $500,000 from a related party,
RHP Management, LLC ("RHP"), an entity controlled by Robert H. Patterson, Jr.,
Chairman of the Board, President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company. In
February 1998, the parties amended the promissory note to extend the repayment
date to September 30, 1999, subject to repayment restrictions under the
revolving credit facility. The principal amount outstanding accrues interest at
a fluctuating rate per annum equal to RHP's cost of borrowing, which is
currently the prime rate of a reference bank plus 1.5% per annum. The proceeds
from this loan were used to pay certain intercompany accounts payable to
Celebrity Hong Kong. In July 1998, the Company borrowed an additional $500,000
from RHP for seasonal working capital needs, which accrues 



                                      -14-
<PAGE>   16

interest at 10% per annum. The note was scheduled to mature November 1, 1998,
but repayment is subject to certain restrictions under the revolving credit
facility and is expected to be repaid after March 1, 1999.

         The Company does not plan to make any significant capital expenditures
in fiscal 1999 other than those incurred in the normal course of business for
facilities and equipment, and those in connection with the Company's continuing
program to upgrade its management information systems.

         The Company's products are primarily sourced in the Far East, with a
majority produced in the People's Republic of China ("PRC"). The Company's
source or cost of supply could be affected by a variety of factors, including
general economic conditions in the Far East, changes in currency valuations,
export credit availability, freight carrier availability and cost, and U.S.
trade policy and law related to imports. If the U.S. government were to
terminate most favored nation status for the PRC or impose punitive tariff rates
on products imported by the Company in retaliation for market access barriers in
the PRC, the duty on products imported by the Company from the PRC would
increase significantly. If the Company were to face an increase in product cost
from any of these factors, it would (i) attempt to increase the prices charged
to its customers, (ii) ask its suppliers to reduce the prices charged to the
Company and (iii) seek to identify more favorable sources; however, unless and
until these efforts were successful, the Company's results of operations could
be affected adversely.

         The Company believes that its current financial position, credit
facilities and cash flows from operations will be adequate to fund its
operations and expansion plans for the foreseeable future. There is no
assurance, however, that these sources will be sufficient to fund its operations
or that any necessary additional financing will be available, if at all, in
amounts required or on terms satisfactory to the Company.

YEAR 2000 ISSUES

         The Year 2000 issue is the result of computer programs being written
using two digits rather than four digits to define the applicable year. Computer
equipment and software and devices with embedded technology that are
time-sensitive may recognize a date using "00" as the year 1900 rather than the
year 2000. This could result in a system failure or miscalculations, causing
disruptions of operations, including, among other things, a temporary inability
to process transactions, send invoices or engage in similar normal business
activities.

         The Company has undertaken various initiatives intended to ensure that
the computer equipment and software used by the Company will function properly
with respect to dates in the Year 2000 and thereafter. For this purpose, the
term "computer equipment and software" includes systems thought of as
information technology ("IT") systems, including accounting, data processing and
telephone/PBX systems and other miscellaneous systems that may contain embedded
technology, as well as systems that are not commonly thought of as IT systems,
such as materials handling systems, alarm systems, fax machines or other
miscellaneous systems that may contain embedded technology. Based upon its
identification and assessment efforts to date, the Company believes that certain
of the computer equipment and software systems it currently uses will require
replacement or modification. In addition, in the ordinary course of replacing
computer equipment and software, the Company attempts to obtain replacements
that are Year 2000 compliant. Utilizing both internal and external resources to
identify and assess needed Year 2000 remediation, the Company currently
anticipates that its Year 2000 identification, assessment, remediation and
testing efforts, which began in April 1997, will be completed by December 31,
1999, and that such efforts will be completed prior to any currently anticipated
impact on its computer equipment and software systems. The Company estimates
that as of December 31, 1998, it had completed approximately 90% of the
initiatives that it believes will be necessary to fully address potential Year
2000 issues related to its computer equipment and software. 



                                      -15-

The projects comprising the remaining 10% of the initiatives are in process and
are expected to be completed by December 31, 1999.

         Substantially all of the Company's products are manufactured in
southeastern Asia. The Company currently has relationships with approximately 70
manufacturers and purchases most of its products from 12 of them. Celebrity has
made its own assessment of the manufacturing operations of its significant
suppliers and their relative dependence on computer equipment and software. As a
result of this independent assessment, the Company has concluded that because
the manufacturing processes of the Company's suppliers utilize very little
technology, the risks associated with the Year 2000 readiness of its significant
suppliers are not significant. The Company is beginning the assessment of the
Year 2000 readiness of its customers. The Company plans to contact its
significant customers to determine their state of Year 2000 readiness, and
expects to complete its assessment of such customers' Year 2000 readiness by
September 1999.

         The Company believes that the costs to modify its computer equipment
and software systems to be Year 2000 compliant, as well as the currently
anticipated costs with respect to Year 2000 issues of third parties, will not
exceed $250,000, which expenditures will be funded from operating cash flows.
All of the $250,000 relates to analysis, repair or replacement of existing
software, upgrades of existing software or evaluation of information received
from significant suppliers or customers. Such amount represents approximately
50% of the Company's total actual and anticipated IT expenditures for fiscal
1998 and 1999. As of December 31, 1998, the Company had incurred costs of
approximately $100,000 related to its Year 2000 identification, assessment,
remediation and testing efforts. Other non-Year 2000 IT efforts have not been
materially delayed or impacted by Year 2000 initiatives. However, if all Year
2000 issues are not properly identified, or assessment, remediation and testing
are not effected timely, there can be no assurance that the Year 2000 issue will
not have a material adverse effect on the Company's results of operations, or
adversely affect the Company's relationships with customers, suppliers or
others. Additionally, there can be no assurance that the Year 2000 issues of
other entities will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's systems
or results of operations.

         The Company has begun, but not yet completed, a comprehensive analysis
of the operational problems and costs (including loss of revenues) that would be
reasonably likely to result from the failure by the Company and certain third
parties to complete efforts necessary to achieve Year 2000 compliance on a
timely basis. A contingency plan has not been developed for dealing with the
most reasonably likely worst case scenario, and such scenario has not yet been
clearly identified. The Company plans to complete such analysis and contingency
planning by December 31, 1999.

        The costs of the Company's Year 2000 identification, assessment,
remediation and testing efforts and the date by which the Company believes it
will complete such efforts are based upon management's best estimates, which are
derived utilizing numerous assumptions regarding future events, including the
continued availability of certain resources, third-party remediation plans, and
other factors. However, there can be no 



                                      -16-
<PAGE>   18

assurance that these estimates will prove to be accurate, and actual results
could differ materially from those currently anticipated. Specific factors that
might cause such material differences include but are not limited to the
availability and cost of personnel trained in Year 2000 issues, the ability to
identify, assess, remediate and test all relevant computer codes and embedded
technology, and similar uncertainties.
