                  NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS.

The consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 1997, the consolidated 
statements of operations for the three and nine months ended June 30, 1997 
and 1996, and the consolidated statements of cash flows for the nine months 
ended June 30, 1997 and 1996, have been prepared by Haggar Corp. (the 
"Company") without audit. In the opinion of management, all necessary 
adjustments (which include only normal recurring adjustments) to present 
fairly the consolidated financial position, results of operations, and cash 
flows of the Company at June 30, 1997, and for all other periods presented, 
have been made.  Certain information and footnote disclosures normally 
included in the financial statements prepared in accordance with generally 
accepted accounting principles have been omitted. These financial statements 
should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and accompanying 
footnotes in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended 
September 30, 1996.

CONCENTRATIONS OF CREDIT RISK.

Financial instruments which potentially expose the Company to concentrations 
of credit risk, as defined by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards 
("SFAS") No. 105, "Disclosure of Information about Financial Instruments with 
Off-Balance Sheet Risk and Financial Instruments with Concentrations of 
Credit Risk," consist primarily of trade accounts receivable.  The Company's 
customers are not concentrated in any specific geographic region but are 
concentrated in the apparel industry.  One customer accounted for 25.0% and 
25.1% of the Company's net sales for the three months ended June 30, 1997 and 
1996, respectively.  The same customer accounted for 27.1% and 27.0% of the 
Company's net sales for the nine month period ended June 30, 1997 and 1996, 
respectively.  The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its 
customers' financial condition and establishes an allowance for doubtful 
accounts based upon factors surrounding the credit risk of specific 
customers, historical trends, and other information.

INVENTORIES.

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out) or market 
and consisted of the following at June 30, 1997, and September 30, 1996 (in 
thousands):

FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS.

The Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued SFAS No. 115, 
"Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities," which 
addresses the accounting and reporting requirements for both investments in 
equity securities that have readily determinable fair values and for all 
investments in debt securities.  During the second quarter of fiscal 1996, 
the Company sold all of its investments in preferred stock and equity 
securities. The proceeds from the sale were used to reduce borrowings under 
the Company's line of credit.

Realized gains and losses on investments in preferred stocks were determined 
on a specific identification basis.  For the three and nine months ended June 
30, 1997, there were no realized gains or losses recognized.  For the nine 
months ended June 30, 1996, realized losses of $532,000 have been recorded.  
The realized gains and losses for the nine months ended June 30, 1996, are 
included in "Other income, net" stated in the accompanying Consolidated 
Statements of Operations.

LONG-TERM DEBT.

Long-term debt consisted of the following at June 30, 1997, and September 30, 
1996 (in thousands):

                                               June 30,     September 30,
                                                 1997           1996

                                               -------        -------

As of June 30, 1997, the Company had a $100,000,000 revolving credit line 
agreement (the "Agreement") with certain banks subject to certain borrowing 
base limitations.  The Company had no debt outstanding and additional 
available borrowing capacity of approximately $85,000,000 under this 
Agreement at June 30, 1997.  The Company incurred approximately $126,000 in 
commitment fees related to the available borrowing capacity during the nine 
month period ended June 30, 1997.  The interest rates for the nine month 
period ended June 30, 1997, ranged from 6.03 % to 8.50%, and the weighted 
average interest rate for the quarter and nine month period was 8.09%.  The 
Agreement is unsecured, except that the Company is prohibited from pledging 
its accounts receivable and inventories during the term of the Agreement.  
The Agreement contains limitations on incurring additional indebtedness and 
requires the maintenance of certain financial ratios.  In addition, the 
Agreement requires the Company and Haggar Clothing Co., the Company's main 
operating subsidiary, to maintain tangible net worth, as defined, in excess 
of $149,000,000 and $55,000,000 as of June 30, 1997.  For fiscal years after 
1996, the Agreement requires the Company to maintain a tangible net worth in 
excess of the tangible net worth requirement of the preceding fiscal year 
plus 50% of the Company's consolidated net income. The Agreement prohibits 
the 


                                      7
<PAGE>


payment of any dividend if a default exists after giving effect to such 
dividend.  Effective June 30, 1997, the Agreement was amended to extend the 
maturity date of the Agreement to December 31, 1999, with a one year renewal 
at the option of the banks and to relax certain of these financial ratios for 
the third and fourth quarters of fiscal 1997.

In fiscal 1995, the Company completed the sale and issuance of $25,000,000 in 
senior notes (the "Allstate notes").  Proceeds from the notes were used to 
partially fund the construction of the Company's new Customer Service Center 
("CSC").  Significant terms of the senior notes include a maturity date of 
ten years from the date of issuance, interest payable semi-annually and 
annual principal payments beginning in the fourth year.  The interest rate on 
the senior notes is fixed at 8.49%.  The terms and conditions of the note 
purchase agreement governing the senior notes include restriction on the sale 
of assets, limitation on additional indebtedness and the maintenance of 
certain net worth requirements.

NET INCOME PER COMMON SHARE AND COMMON SHARE EQUIVALENT.

Net income per common share and common share equivalent is calculated by
dividing net income applicable to common stock by the weighted average shares of
common stock and common stock equivalents outstanding.  Common share equivalents
represent the effect, if any, of the assumed purchase of common shares, using
the treasury stock method, pursuant to common stock options issued under the
Company's long-term incentive plan.

SFAS No. 128, "Earnings Per Share," issued in February 1997, mandates a 
change in the methodology for calculating earnings per share.  The Company 
will implement the provisions of SFAS No. 128 in the first quarter of fiscal 
1998. Had SFAS No. 128 been implemented during the third quarter of fiscal 
1997 the implementation would not have had a significant impact on the 
calculation of earnings per share of the Company.

SUBSEQUENT EVENTS.

Subsequent to June 30, 1997, the Company declared a cash dividend of $0.05 
per share payable to the stockholders of record on August 4, 1997.  The 
dividend of approximately $428,000 will be paid on August 18, 1997.

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

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the attached 
consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto, and with the 
Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 
1996.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The Company's third quarter of fiscal 1997 net loss to common stockholders of 
$1.9 million compares to net income of $1.1 million in the third quarter of 
fiscal 1996.  Net loss to common stockholders for the nine months ended June 
30, 1997, was $0.1 million compared to net income of $3.7 million for the 
nine months ended June 30, 1996.  The net loss in the third quarter of fiscal 
1997 and nine months ended June 30, 1997, is primarily the result of 
decreased sales and inventory writedowns.

Net sales for the third quarter ended June 30, 1997, decreased 15.2% to $88.0 
million from $103.8 million for the third quarter of fiscal 1996. The 
decrease in net sales for the third quarter of fiscal 1997 is the result of a 
28.6% decrease in unit sales, offset by a 13% increase in the average sales 
price. Net sales for the nine months ended June 30, 1997, decreased 7.1% to 
$290.8 million compared to $313.0 million in the prior fiscal year.  The 7.1% 
decrease in the first nine months of fiscal 1997 is the result of a 12.4% 
decrease in unit sales, offset by a 1.3% increase in the average sales price. 
The decrease in unit sales for the three months ended June 30, 1997, is 
attributable to lower than expected retail sales and product conversions for 
two major customers.  The increase in the average sales price for the third 
quarter resulted from fewer sales markdowns.  The decrease in unit sales for 
the nine months ended June 30, 1997, is attributable to sluggish holiday 
retail sales, the product conversions and shipment delays in the second 
quarter.  (See, "Management Information System.")

Gross profit as a percentage of net sales was 27.9% in the third quarter of 
fiscal 1997 compared to 27.9% for the third quarter of the prior fiscal year. 
Operationally, the gross profit as a percentage of net sales in the third 
quarter of fiscal 1997 would have been 29.1%  but for $1.1 million in 
markdowns, attributable to the product conversions.  Gross profit as a 
percentage of net sales for the first nine months of fiscal 1997 increased to 
28.8% compared to 27.5% in the first nine months of fiscal 1996.  The 
increase in gross profit as a percentage of net sales is primarily the result 
of lower manufacturing costs attributable to an increase in the proportion of 
offshore production compared to domestic production.

Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of net sales 
increased to 31.3% in the third quarter of fiscal 1997 compared to 25.7% in 
the third quarter of fiscal 1996.  For the nine months ended June 30, 1997, 
selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of net sales 
increased to 28.8% compared to 25.3% in the first nine months of the prior 
fiscal year.  The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses 
for the nine months ended June 30, 1997, is primarily the result of increases 
in depreciation expense of approximately $3.6 million for the Customer 
Service Center ("CSC"). Additionally, there were 22 additional retail stores 
open and operating at the end of the third quarter of fiscal 1997 as compared 
to the same quarter in fiscal 1996 which resulted in a further increase of 
approximately $4.1 million. These increases to the selling, general and 
administrative expenses were partially offset by the decreased shipping costs 
for the CSC of approximately $3.9 million primarily due to the reduction in 
labor for the CSC.


                                        9

Other income for the third quarter of fiscal 1997 of $0.1 million was 
comparable to other income of $0.3 million for the third quarter of fiscal 
1996.  For the nine month period ended June 30, 1997, other income was $1.3 
million compared to other income of $0.2 million for the same period during 
fiscal 1996.  The increase in other income for the nine months ended June 30, 
1997, was primarily the result of an unrealized loss of approximately $0.5 
million on the sale of marketable securities during fiscal 1996 and the 
recognition of a gain of approximately $0.5 million on the dissolution of a 
joint venture in the United Kingdom during fiscal 1997.

Interest expense in the third quarter of fiscal 1997 decreased to $0.8 
million compared to $1.5 million in the third quarter of fiscal 1996.  
Interest expense for the first nine months of fiscal 1997 decreased to $2.6 
million compared to interest expense of $3.1 million in the first nine months 
of fiscal 1996.  The decreases in interest expense for the three and nine 
months ended June 30, 1997, compared to fiscal 1996, relate primarily to the 
decreased borrowings under the Agreement.

The income tax benefit for the third quarter of fiscal 1997, as a percentage 
of income or loss before provision for income taxes, was 40.1% compared to a 
38.6% provision in the third quarter of fiscal 1996.  For the nine months 
ended June 30, 1997, the income tax benefit as a percentage of income or loss 
before provision for income taxes was 40.1% compared to a 38.1% provision in 
the first nine months of 1996.  The effective tax rates for both the third 
quarter and the first nine months of fiscal 1997 and 1996 differ from the 
statutory rate because of certain permanent tax differences and state income 
taxes.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Company's trade accounts receivable potentially expose the Company to 
concentrations of credit risks because most of its customers are in the 
retail apparel industry.  The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of 
its customers' financial condition and establishes an allowance for doubtful 
accounts based upon the factors related to the credit risk of specific 
customers, historical trends and other information.  The Company's trade 
accounts receivable decreased approximately $28.7 million to $45.8 million at 
June 30, 1997, from $74.5 million at September 30, 1996.  This decrease in 
trade accounts receivable is the result of seasonal reductions and decreased 
sales volume in the third quarter of fiscal 1997.

Inventories as of June 30, 1997, decreased to $114.8 million from $116.4 
million at September 30, 1996. The comparable inventory levels at September 
30, 1996, and at June 30, 1997, reflect the Company's ongoing efforts to 
manage inventory at a level commensurate with projected sales.

The Company's ongoing external financing needs are met through an unsecured 
revolving credit facility with certain banks.  The Agreement provides the 
Company with a $100.0 million line of credit.  The amount available under the 
Agreement is limited to the lesser of $100.0 million minus any letter of 
credit exposure or the borrowing base as defined in the Agreement.  Effective 
June 30, 1997, the Agreement was amended to extend the Agreement through 
December 31, 1999, and to relax certain financial covenants for the third and 
fourth quarters of fiscal 1997.  As of June 30, 1997, the Company had no 
borrowings outstanding under the Agreement and had available borrowing 
capacity of approximately $85 million.

In fiscal 1995, the Company issued $25.0 million in senior notes.  
Significant terms of the senior notes include a maturity date of ten years 
from the date of issuance, interest payable semi-annually and annual 
principal payments beginning in the fourth year.  The interest rate on the 
senior notes is fixed at 8.49%. The terms and conditions of the note purchase 
agreement governing the senior notes include restrictions on the sale of 
assets, limitations on additional indebtedness, and the maintenance of 
certain net worth requirements.


                                       10

The Company's Haggar UK subsidiary maintains $6.6 million in lines of credit 
with banks in the United Kingdom to fund operating activities.  As of June 
30, 1997, the subsidiary had approximately $2.2 million outstanding under the 
lines of credit.  The lines of credit have been partially collateralized by 
approximately $5.0 million in letters of credit from the Company and are 
payable upon demand.  Interest under the lines of credit is payable at 1% 
above the banks' base rates.

During the second quarter of fiscal 1997, the Company reached an agreement 
with its joint venturer, Coats Viyella Plc, to dissolve and wind-up the joint 
venture of the two firms in the United Kingdom.  The dissolution of this 
partnership resulted in a gain of approximately $0.5 million, which is 
included in other income during the nine months ended June 30, 1997.  The 
Company intends to continue to market Haggar-Registered Trademark- apparel in 
the United Kingdom, including Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland, 
through its Haggar UK subsidiary.

For the nine months ended June 30, 1997 the Company provided cash from 
operating activities of approximately $22.4 million primarily as the result 
of a decrease in accounts receivable of $28.7 million. The Company provided 
approximately $43.5 million in cash from operating activities for the nine 
months ended June 30, 1996, primarily as a result of the decreases in 
accounts receivable of $25.8 million, and the decrease in the insurance 
receivable of $24.0 million due to the collection of proceeds from the 
insurance carrier, offset by a decrease in accrued liabilities and federal 
income taxes payable of $5.2 million. The Company used approximately $6.1 
million in investing activities for the nine months ended June 30, 1997, 
primarily to purchase property, plant and equipment, partially offset by a 
decrease in other assets of approximately $1.9 million. For the nine months 
ended June 30, 1996, approximately $2.6 million in cash flow was used by 
investing activities primarily as the net result of $11.0 million used to 
purchase property, plant and equipment, offset by $5.0 million provided by 
the sale of all of its investments in preferred stock and equity securities 
and a decrease in other assets of $3.3 million.  For the nine months ending 
June 30, 1997, cash flows used in financing activities were primarily the 
result of payment of $43.2 million on long-term debt offset by the issuance 
of $30.0 million in long-term debt.  Comparatively, cash flows used in 
financing activities for the nine months ended June 30, 1996, were primarily 
the result of payment of $388.3 million on long-term debt offset by the 
issuance of  $349.0 million in long-term debt.

The Company believes that the cash flow generated from operations and the 
funds available under the foregoing credit facilities will be adequate to 
meet its working capital and related financing needs for the foreseeable 
future.

NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS.

In October 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 
123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation."  As a result of this 
statement, the Company will begin to provide additional disclosures related 
to its stock based compensation plans in its 1997 audited financial 
statements.  Adoption of SFAS No. 123 will not have a material effect on the 
Company's financial position or results of operations.

SFAS No. 128,  "Earnings Per Share," issued in February 1997, mandates a 
change in the methodology for calculating earnings per share.  The Company 
will implement the provisions of  SFAS No. 128 in the first quarter of fiscal 
1998. Had SFAS No. 128 been implemented during the third quarter of fiscal 
1997 the implementation would not have had a significant impact on the 
calculation of earnings per share of the Company.

MANAGEMENT INFORMATION SYSTEM.

During the second quarter of fiscal 1997, the Company modified its previous 
management information systems by implementing a software system to manage, 
among other things, customer service, order allocation, billing to customers 
and calculations of commissions for the Company's sales associates.  The 
Company expects this system to ultimately improve operational efficiencies 
and facilitate future growth.  During the implementation of this system, the 
Company encountered problems that adversely impacted the second quarter of 
fiscal 1997, primarily as the result of shipping delays and lost sales in 
March.  The Company has  addressed these issues and has improved the system's 
functionality. Internal changes to the system continue to be made to improve 
its operational efficiencies and ease of use.
