Part I

ITEM 1. BUSINESS

Overview

Haggar Corp., together with its subsidiaries (collectively the "Company"), designs, manufactures, imports and markets casual and dress men's and women's apparel
products, including pants, shorts, suits, sportcoats, sweaters, shirts, dresses, skirts and vests in the United States and abroad. Apparel products are offered in a wide variety of styles, fabrics,
colors and sizes. The Company's operations are organized into three business units, wholesale, retail and licensing, each of which offers similar products through different distribution channels.

The
Company's wholesale segment is the primary distribution channel through which the Company sells its products. The wholesale segment designs, manufactures, imports and markets casual
and dress men's and women's apparel to retailers throughout North America and the United Kingdom. Products are sold through approximately 10,000 retail stores operated by the Company's customers,
which include major department stores, specialty stores and mass market retailers throughout North America and the United Kingdom. The Company markets its premium men's apparel products under the
Haggar® brand name, and markets more moderately priced lines of men's clothing under a variety of trademarks offered by its mass-market retailer division, The Horizon Group.
The Horizon Group also offers retailers quality men's apparel bearing the retailers' own label. The Company offers its women's apparel products under the Haggar® brand and several other
trademarks offered by its women's wear subsidiary, Jerell, Ltd. ("Jerell").

The
Company's retail segment markets Haggar® branded products through 68 Company operated retail stores located in the Company's Dallas headquarters and in outlet malls
throughout the United States. As of September 30, 2002, the Company operated 63 such stores which market first quality Company
products to the general public. These stores also serve as a retail marketing laboratory for the Company. In addition, the Company has five retail stores featuring overruns and seconds.

The
Company's licensing segment generates royalty income by licensing the Company's trademarks for use by other manufacturers of specified products in specified geographic regions.

The
Company conducts its foreign operations through Haggar Apparel, Ltd. and Haggar Canada Co., which market the Company's branded products in the United Kingdom and Canada,
respectively.

The
Company was established in 1926 by J. M. Haggar, Sr., and has built its reputation by offering high quality, ready-to-wear apparel at affordable prices
through innovations in product design, marketing and customer service. Both Haggar Corp. and Haggar Clothing Co., the Company's primary subsidiary, were incorporated in Nevada in 1989.

Business Strategies

The Company has identified the following goals for fiscal 2003:



To
achieve these goals, the Company has adopted the following strategies:

Increase Haggar® Brand Equity.Since the Company's founding in 1926, the Haggar® brand has meant
quality, fit and fashion men's apparel. The Company is the market leader in sales of men's dress pants, custom-fit suits (separately sized pants and matching jackets which may be purchased
together to form a suit requiring little or no alteration) and sportcoats, and holds the number two market share in

4

men's casual pants, as measured by the National Panel Diary. The Company believes that consistent product performance, visible national advertising and marketing support are key elements in
maintaining and increasing market share. The Company seeks to continue to enhance the Haggar® brand with products and services that are valued by both retailer customers and
value-conscious consumers and to expand Haggar® brand awareness in the women's wear arena. The Company believes that its fundamental values, including innovative products, excellent
service and fair prices, have kept its brand relevant to retail customers. The Company further supports the brand with co-operative advertising, point-of-sale
signage and in-store fixtures. The Company's comprehensive marketing plan for fiscal 2003 benefits from the Company's long-term presence and leadership as a significant men's
wear resource for consumers.

Introduce New Products.During fiscal 2002, the Company introduced the Haggar® comfort fit waistband for men's
pants which includes hidden elastic extensions in the waistband. During fiscal 2003, the Company plans to develop new men's wear models with a variety of fabrics and styles using the comfort fit
waistband. The Company also plans to manufacture and market comfort fit waistband pants to women beginning in fiscal 2003.

Expand Licensing of Trademarks.The Company plans to strengthen its market position in men's pants by seeking to enter into
license agreements with other recognized apparel brands. The Company believes that the Claiborne® license agreement, which was executed in fiscal 2001, will continue to be a meaningful
channel for sales growth during fiscal 2003. The Company recently announced that it will enter into a licensing arrangement with Kenneth Cole® during fiscal 2003.

Expand Private Label Business.The Company plans to expand its private label business into women's wear by leveraging the
Company's expertise gained through both the Jerell acquisition and the operation of The Horizon Group. The Company has developed systems through which to service global customers such as Nike,
Bloomingdale's, J.C. Penney and Wal-Mart. The Company will continue to identify opportunities to offer women's wear labels using this infrastructure.

Actively Manage Costs and Collections.The Company has implemented expense control initiatives and identified vendors to
provide high-quality, low-cost product sourcing from over 20 foreign countries. The Company's sourcing team seeks to identify, evaluate and take advantage of opportunities to
expand and improve the Company's contracted manufacturing resources and to enhance the Company's supply chain performance. The Company continues to seek to realize greater efficiencies by managing its
apparel product inventory on an as needed basis. In addition, the Company seeks to continue to actively monitor and pursue collections on its receivables from customers by continuous
follow-ups with customers and monitoring of customer deductions. Bad debts as a percentage of net sales were less than 1.0% in each of the Company's last three fiscal years. The Company
anticipates that these initiatives will increase the availability of financial resources to facilitate growth through additional national advertising and strategic acquisitions.

Pursue Strategic Acquisitions.The Company continues to seek growth through strategic acquisitions. The Company seeks
well-run businesses with proven management teams and strong product recognition in categories that

Products and Major Brands

The Company's apparel products are manufactured with a wide array of fabrics that emphasize style, comfort, fit and performance. The Company is well known for its
use of "performance fabrics" that maintain a fresh, neat appearance. The Company's product lines are currently dominated by natural fiber (wool or cotton) and blended (polyester/wool or
polyester/rayon) fabrics, although the Company also produces some apparel using a single synthetic (polyester or rayon) fabric.

A
significant portion of the Company's apparel lines consists of basic, recurring styles, which the Company believes are less susceptible to "fashion markdowns," as compared with higher
fashion apparel lines. Thus, while the Company strives to offer current fashions and styles, the bulk of its product lines changes relatively little from year to year. This consistency in product
lines enables the Company to operate on a cost-efficient basis and to more accurately forecast the demand for particular products.

Haggar®.The Company's Haggar® brands represented 69.5% of its total apparel
sales in fiscal 2002. These brands receive widespread recognition among United States consumers for high quality, affordable men's and women's apparel. The full range of men's products offered by the
Company is marketed under these brands, including dress and casual pants, sportcoats, suits, shirts and shorts. The Company has developed specific product lines under these brands, intended to keep
the Company in the forefront of the trend among men toward more casual clothing, while maintaining the Company's traditional strength in men's dress apparel. These product lines include Haggar Black
Label®, American Generations®, Collections, City Casuals® and Heritage. In addition, the Company markets a line of men's activewear under
the Haggar Golf brand. The Haggar® brand is also licensed to manufacturers of related apparel and accessories in categories outside the core product lines of the Company.

The
Haggar Black Label® line comprises the Company's premium quality khakis and dress pants, custom-fit suits and sport coats, sweaters, outerwear, shoes and
socks, dress shirts and ties, belts and wallets, and woven and knit casual shirts. American Generations® is a line composed of 100% cotton khakis and casual pants, shorts, socks, shoes,
belts, wallets, sweaters and outerwear. The Collections line comprises dress pants, sport coats, dress shirts and ties, shoes and socks, and outerwear. City Casuals® is an
urban dweller and office casual line including knit and woven shirts, pants and jackets, sweaters and sweater vests and outerwear. The Heritage line represents the Company's foundation
label consisting of its historical mainstay products, casual and dress pants and sportcoats. Haggar Golf is a line of men's activewear including shirts, shorts, sweater vests and pants in
a variety of colors and fabrics.

Haggar®
branded women's wear products, including dress and casual pants, shirts, sweaters, vests and skirts, were introduced in fiscal 2000. These products expand on the
Company's reputation for affordable quality and style.

Haggar®
branded products are sold nationwide primarily in major department stores, including J.C. Penney Company, Inc., May Company Department Stores, Federated
Department Stores, Mervyn's California and Kohl's Department Stores. The Company also markets its Haggar® branded clothing through its own retail stores located in the Company's Dallas
headquarters and in outlet malls throughout the United States.

The Horizon Group.The Company's mass retailer division, The Horizon Group, markets men's apparel
products including dress pants, casual pants, shorts, suits, sportcoats and shirts. These products, which are offered at lower price points than Haggar® brand products, are primarily sold
to Wal-Mart Stores, Inc.

---

In
addition to manufacturing products under its own labels, the Company also manufactures men's apparel for certain of its customers under the individual store's proprietary label. The
Company's specialty label products are primarily sold to department stores such as J.C. Penney Company, Inc.

Jerell.The Company's women's wear subsidiary, Jerell, markets women's sportswear including dresses,
skirts, pants, and vests. These product lines are primarily sold to major department stores, including Dillards, and catalog suppliers, such as Coldwater Creek.

Introduction of New Products

The Company emphasizes the introduction of new products in order to capitalize on its brand recognition and retailer relationships. During fiscal 2002, the
Company introduced the Haggar® comfort fit waistband for men's and women's pants which include elastic extensions hidden in the waistband. The invisible panels expand and contract along
with the body, providing the flexibility to bend, reach, sit, stand or tuck in one to two layers without sacrificing a perfect fit. The Company also recently introduced Tempratech men's
pants with a moisture wicking fabric, as well as its Microluxe and MicroMattique® men's pants featuring microfiber fabrics. In addition, the Company also continues to expand
its lines of shirts designed to complement its pant product lines. While there is substantial competition in these markets, the Company believes that it is well positioned to take advantage of market
opportunities.

Advertising and Marketing

The Company seeks to promote overall brand awareness for the stable of brands that it owns or licenses, principally through consumer advertising,
in-store shop and fixtured area programs, and through the use of retail marketing assistants.

The
Company supports the Haggar® brand and other brands such as DKNY® and Claiborne® through various advertising and promotional programs. The Company
has advertised the Haggar® brand on national and local television and radio and in consumer and trade publications. In addition, the Company participates in cooperative advertising on a
shared cost basis with major retailers in radio, television and various print media.

An
important feature of the Company's marketing strategy is its in-store shop and fixtured area program, whereby participating retailers set aside floor space highlighted by
distinctive fixtures dedicated for exclusive sale of the Company's products by the retailer. This program enables the retailer to create an environment consistent with the Company's image and to
display and stock a greater volume of the Company's products per square foot of retail space. Such shops and fixtured areas encourage longer term commitment by the retailer to the Company's products.
The Company believes that these shops and fixtured areas increase consumer product recognition and loyalty because of the retail customer's familiarity with the location of the Company's products in
the store.

The
Company also employs an extensive staff of retail marketing assistants located throughout the United States. These assistants educate the retailers' salespeople about the Company's
current products, provide the Company with first-hand feedback concerning consumer reaction to the Company's products and coordinate the in-store displays with its retailers.

Trademarks and Licensing

The Company owns many federal trademark registrations and has several new trademark applications pending in the United States Patent and Trademark Office. The
Company has also registered or applied for registration of a number of trademarks for use on a variety of apparel items in various foreign countries. The Company regards its trademarks and other
proprietary rights as

7

---

valuable assets and believes that they have significant value in the manufacturing and marketing of its products.

The
Company seeks to capitalize on consumer recognition and acceptance of the Haggar® brands by licensing, both domestically and internationally, the use of these trademarks
on a variety of products. Typically, the licensee's agreement with the Company gives the licensee the right to produce, market and sell specified products in a particular country or region under one
or more of the Company's trademarks. For example, the Company has granted exclusive domestic licenses to unaffiliated manufacturers for the production and marketing of men's leather goods, neckwear,
dress shirts, sweaters, hosiery and outerwear under the Haggar® trademark.

In
addition to using and licensing its own trademarks, the Company is the licensee of certain trademarks owned by other apparel companies. The Company has entered into license agreements
to manufacture and market certain men's pants and shorts under the DKNY® and Claiborne® trademarks. The DKNY® license expires on June 30, 2003. The
Claiborne® license expires in December 2005. The Claiborne® license is subject to renewal by the Company for an additional five years, provided that certain net sales
thresholds are obtained by the Company. The Company estimates that the net sales levels will be met for the license renewal.

The
Company recently announced that it will enter into a licensing agreement with Kenneth Cole® during fiscal 2003. The Kenneth Cole® license provides the Company
with the opportunity to further extend its distribution channels at retail.

Manufacturing and Materials Sourcing

Products sold by the Company's various divisions are manufactured to the designs and specifications (including fabric selections) of designers employed by those
divisions.

As
part of the Company's strategy to source production internationally, during fiscal 2002 and 2001, the Company closed its remaining domestic manufacturing facilities and announced the
fiscal 2003 closure of a manufacturing facility in the Dominican Republic. The plant closure was completed in
November 2002. See "Item 7.Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of OperationsBusiness Reorganization" for additional discussion of
these plant closures.

As
a result of the Company's international production strategy, during fiscal 2002, less than 1% of the Company's products (measured in units) were produced in the United States, with
the balance manufactured in foreign countries. Domestic manufacturing during fiscal 2002 consisted exclusively of women's apparel produced by unaffiliated companies. Approximately 17% of the Company's
foreign-made products were manufactured by facilities owned by the Company in Mexico and the Dominican Republic, with the remaining foreign-made products manufactured by
unaffiliated companies in Asia, South America, Central America, Mexico and the Dominican Republic. The Company has no long-term contracts with any of its third-party manufacturers, but
does not anticipate the shortage of manufacturing services.

Raw
materials used in the Company's manufacturing operations consist mainly of fabrics made from cotton, wool, synthetics and blends of synthetics with cotton or wool. These fabrics are
purchased principally from major textile producers located in the United States. In addition, the Company purchases buttons, thread, zippers, trim and other items from a large number of other
suppliers. Ten U.S. vendors supplied approximately 62% of the Company's fabric and trim requirements during the fiscal year ended September 30, 2002. The Company has no long-term
contracts with any of its suppliers, but does not anticipate substantial shortages of raw materials in fiscal 2003.

Distribution

In the United States, wholesale and retail distribution currently occurs at its Customer Service Center in Fort Worth, Texas, which consists of approximately
660,000 square feet of warehouse space. The facility is owned by the Company and is staffed by employees under the complete control of the Company. The Fort Worth facility is the Company's main
customer service center and incorporates state-of-the-art systems and equipment to monitor and track all the Company's product to ensure efficient and effective
shipping capabilities and enhanced functionality to allow the Company to offer value-added services to customers including special ticketing, customer-specific stock keeping unit information, and
product-enhancing packaging. The Company's Canadian and United Kingdom distribution is performed by third party logistics companies.

Quality Control

The Company's quality control program is designed to ensure that purchased goods meet the Company's standards. The Company inspects prototypes of each product
prior to production by third parties and performs several in-line inspections and a final inspection prior to shipment. All finished
goods for domestic distribution are shipped to the Company's Customer Service Center for re-inspection and distribution.

Management Information Systems

The Company believes that high levels of automation and technology are essential to maintain its competitive position and the Company continues to invest in
computer hardware, systems applications and networks to enhance and to speed the apparel design process, to support the sale and distribution of products to its customers and to improve the
integration and efficiency of its operations. The Company utilizes computer-aided design stations for use by the design teams, which provide timely translations of designs into sample depictions
varying in color, cut and style. The Company also uses an Electronic Data Interchange ("EDI") system to receive on-line orders from its customers and a related electronic method to
accumulate sales information on its products. This technology enables the Company to provide valuable sales information and inventory maintenance information services to its customers who have adopted
such technology. The Company's larger customers communicate with the Company through EDI technology.

Dependence on Key Customers

The Company's largest customer in fiscal 2002, J.C. Penney Company, Inc., accounted for approximately 21%, 23% and 25% of the Company's net sales during
the fiscal years ended September 30, 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively, and approximately 25% and 22% of the Company's outstanding trade receivables as of September 30, 2002 and 2001,
respectively. The Company's second largest customer in fiscal 2002, Kohl's Department Stores, Inc., accounted for approximately 16%, 12% and 11% of the Company's net sales during the fiscal
years ended September 30, 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively, and approximately 13% and 11% of the Company's outstanding trade receivables as of September 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively.
The Company's third largest customer in fiscal 2002, Wal-Mart Stores, Inc., accounted for approximately 9%, 11% and 8% of the Company's net sales for the fiscal years ended
September 30, 2002, 2001, and 2000, respectively, and approximately 6% and 7% of the Company's outstanding trade receivables as of September 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively. No other
customer accounts for more than 10% of net sales. The loss of the business of one or more of the Company's larger customers could have a material adverse effect on the Company. The Company has no
long-term commitments or contracts with any of its customers.

9

---

Competition

The apparel industry is highly competitive due to its fashion orientation, its mix of large and small producers, the flow of imported merchandise and a wide
variety of retailing methods. The Company
competes with numerous domestic and foreign designers, brands and manufacturers of apparel products, some of which may be significantly larger and have greater marketing and financing resources than
the Company. Intense competition in the apparel industry can result in significant discounting and lower gross margins. As measured by the National Panel Diary, the Company is the market leader in
sales of men's dress pants, custom-fit suits (separately sized pants and matching jackets which may be purchased together to form a suit requiring little or no alteration) and
sportcoats, and holds the number two market share in men's casual pants.

The
principal elements of competition in the apparel industry include style, quality and price of products, brand loyalty and advertising. The Company's product innovations and
value-added services, such as floor-ready merchandise, electronic data interchange, fixturing and concept shops, position it to compete as a market leader. The Company also believes that its brand
recognition, merchandise with relatively low vulnerability to changing fashion trends, and affordable pricing enhance its competitive position in the apparel industry. Additionally, the Company
believes its advertising campaigns promote consumer demand for its products and enhance its brand and Company name recognition and image.

Seasonality

During the last three fiscal years, the Company's sales have exhibited some seasonality with higher sales and income in its second and fourth quarters, which is
prior to the selling season for spring and fall merchandise, respectively. See "Item 7, Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
OperationsSeasonality."

Order Backlog

A substantial portion of the Company's net sales is based on orders for immediate delivery, or so-called "soft-planning orders," submitted
by apparel retailers (which do not constitute purchase commitments). An analysis of backlog is not, therefore, necessarily indicative of future net sales. Retailers' use of such
soft-planning orders increases the difficulty of forecasting demand for the Company's products.

Employees

The Company employs approximately 1,500 persons domestically and 2,100 persons in foreign countries. Of the foreign employees, 341 employees will be terminated in
fiscal 2003 due to the closure of a manufacturing facility in the Dominican Republic. See "Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
OperationsBusiness Reorganization" for further discussion of the plant closure. In fiscal 2002, approximately 2,000 employees were engaged in manufacturing operations and the remainder
were employed in executive, marketing, wholesale and retail sales, product design, engineering, accounting, distribution and purchasing activities. None of the Company's domestic employees are covered
by a collective bargaining agreement with any union. While
the Company is not a party to any collective bargaining agreements covering its foreign employees, applicable labor laws may dictate minimum wages, fringe benefit requirements and certain other
obligations. The Company believes that relations with its employees are good.

Risks Related to the Company's Business

An investment in the Company involves certain risks and uncertainties. The risks and uncertainties described below and elsewhere in this Annual Report on
Form 10-K should be carefully considered. If

10

---

any of the events described below or elsewhere occurs, the Company's business could be adversely affected in a material way.

Dependence on Key Customers

The Company's largest customers are J.C. Penney Company, Inc., Kohl's Department Stores, Inc. and Wal-Mart Stores, Inc. The loss
of the business of one or more of these customers could have a material adverse effect on the Company.

Uncertainties in Apparel Retailing

The apparel industry historically has been subject to substantial cyclical variations, and a recession in the general economy or uncertainties regarding future
economic prospects that affect consumer spending habits could have a material adverse effect on the Company. While various retailers, including some of the Company's customers, experienced financial
difficulties in the past three years which increased the risk of extending credit to such retailers, the Company's bad debt experience has been limited. Under the Company's current credit and
collection arrangements, the bankruptcy of a customer which continues to operate and carry the Company's products should not have a material adverse effect on the Company.

Competition

The apparel industry is highly competitive in the United States and abroad. The Company competes with numerous domestic and foreign designers, brands and
manufacturers of apparel, some of which may be significantly larger and have greater marketing and financial resources than the Company. Management believes that the Company's ability to compete
effectively depends upon its continued
flexibility in responding to market demand and its ability to offer fashion conscious consumers a wide variety of high quality apparel at competitive prices.

Dependence on Third-Party Manufacturers

The Company is dependent upon third parties for the manufacture of a substantial portion of its products. The inability of a manufacturer to ship orders of the
Company's products in a timely manner, including as a result of local financial market disruption which could impair the ability of such suppliers to finance their operations, or to meet quality
standards, could cause the Company to miss the delivery date requirements of its customers for those items, which could result in cancellation of orders, refusal to accept deliveries or a reduction in
purchase prices, any of which could have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition and results of operations. The Company has no long-term formal arrangements with any
of its suppliers and historically has experienced only limited difficulty in satisfying its raw material and finished goods requirements. Although the Company believes it could replace such suppliers
without a material adverse effect on the Company, there can be no assurance that such suppliers could be replaced in a timely manner and the loss of such suppliers could have a material adverse effect
on the Company's short-term operating results.

Substantially
all of the Company's products are manufactured by third parties located outside the United States. The Company's foreign production and sourcing operations are subject to
various risks of doing business abroad, including quotas, work stoppages and other restrictions and regulations relating to imports and, in certain parts of the world, political or economic
instability. Although the Company's operations have not been materially adversely affected by any of such factors to date, any substantial disruption of its relationships with its foreign suppliers
could adversely affect its operations. Some of the Company's imported merchandise is subject to United States Customs duties. In addition, bilateral agreements between the major exporting countries
and the United States impose quotas which limit the amounts of certain categories of merchandise that may be imported into the United States.

11

---

Any material increase in duty levels or material decrease in quota levels, or material decrease in available quota allocations could materially adversely affect the Company.

Dependence on Fort Worth Distribution Center

The Company operates the majority of all of its warehouse and distribution activities in the United States out of one main distribution center in Fort Worth,
Texas. Any major work disruption at the Company's Fort Worth facility could have a material adverse effect on the Company. Although the Company believes it could utilize other warehousing companies to
satisfy its shipping and distribution functions, there can be no assurance that these warehousing companies could be utilized in a timely manner and the inability to service the Company's customers
for any period of time could materially adversely affect the Company.

Risks of Strategic Acquisition Strategy

The Company seeks growth through strategic acquisitions of other apparel businesses. The Company cannot assure you that its strategic acquisition strategy will be
successful. The success of the Company's acquisition strategy is dependent upon a number of factors, including:



Acquisitions
involve a number of other risks, including diversion of management's attention from other business concerns and the assumption of known or unknown liabilities of acquired
businesses. The integration of acquired businesses may place significant strains on the Company's current operating and financial systems and controls. The Company may not successfully overcome these
risks or any other problems encountered in connection with its acquisition strategy.

All
of the properties owned by the Company are free from material encumbrances, except the Company's closed fabric cutting facility located at Weslaco, Texas, which is subject to a lien
securing an industrial revenue bond financing in the amount of $2.3 million. The Company believes that its existing facilities are well maintained, in good operating condition and adequate for
its present and anticipated levels of operations.

Future
manufacturing needs are anticipated to be met through owned facilities and through the use of outside contractors. The Company's Customer Service Center in Fort Worth, Texas, is
expected to meet the Company's distribution requirements for the foreseeable future.

ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

The Company has been named as a defendant in several legal actions arising from its operations in the normal course of business, including actions brought by
certain terminated employees. Although exact settlement amounts, if any, related to these actions cannot accurately be predicted, the claims and damages alleged, the progress of the litigation to
date, and past experience with similar litigation leads the Company to believe that any liability resulting from these actions will not individually, or collectively, have a material adverse effect on
the Company.

Two
jury verdicts totaling $5.2 million have been returned against subsidiaries of the Company related to claims by former employees for wrongful discharge and common law tort.
One of the verdicts was settled on September 30, 2002 for $1.3 million. The other case is currently on appeal, as management, based on the advice of legal counsel, believes the verdict
in this lawsuit is both legally and factually incorrect.

The
Company maintains general liability, workers' compensation and employers liability insurance. The Company intends to pass the costs associated with lawsuits to its insurance
carriers, under the applicable policies, if any, subject to the deductible limits and other provisions and exclusions of those policies.

ITEM 4. SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS

No matters were submitted to a vote of the Company's stockholders, through the solicitation of proxies or otherwise, during the quarter ended September 30,
2002.

Dividends

The Company has paid a quarterly cash dividend of $0.05 per share of common stock since April 1993. Subject to contractual restrictions on the Company's
ability to pay cash dividends, the Company currently intends to continue paying quarterly cash dividends on its common stock. The amount of any such dividends will be determined at the discretion of
the Company's board of directors and will depend on the Company's earnings, financial condition, ability to fund its capital requirements and other factors that the board of directors deems relevant.
The Company's revolving credit facility prohibits the payment of any dividend if a default exists after giving effect to such a dividend. Certain of the Company's long-term debt facilities contain
restrictions on the ability of the Company's subsidiaries to transfer funds to the Company.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion and analysis of the consolidated results of operations and financial condition of the Company should be read in conjunction with the
accompanying consolidated financial statements and related notes contained in "Item 8, Financial Statements and Supplementary Data" to provide additional information concerning the Company's financial
activities and condition.

Overview

The Company designs, manufactures, imports and markets casual and dress men's and women's apparel products, including pants, shorts, suits, sportcoats, sweaters,
shirts, dresses, skirts and vests in the United States and abroad. The Company's operations are organized into three business units, wholesale, retail and licensing, each of which offer similar
products through different distribution channels. The Company's wholesale segment, which sells apparel products through approximately 10,000 retail stores operated by the Company's retail customers,
is the primary distribution channel through which the Company sells its products. The Company's retail segment markets Haggar® branded products through 68 Company operated retail stores
located in the Company's Dallas headquarters and in outlet malls throughout the United States, and the Company's licensing segment generates royalty income by licensing the Company's trademarks for
use by other manufacturers of specified products in specified geographic regions.

Critical Accounting Policies

There have been no material changes to the Company's critical accounting policies during fiscal 2002, except for the adoption of Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets."

Management's
Discussion and Analysis discusses the results of operations and financial condition as reflected in the Company's consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared
in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States of
America 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. On an ongoing basis, management evaluates its estimates and judgments, including those related to accounts
receivable; inventory valuation; amortization and recoverability of long-lived assets, including goodwill; litigation accruals; the calculation of workers' compensation liabilities;
revenue recognition; and reorganization charges. Management bases its estimates and judgments on the Company's substantial historical experience and other relevant factors, the results of which form
the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources.

While
the Company believes that the historical experience and other factors considered provide a meaningful basis for the accounting policies applied in the preparation of the
consolidated financial statements, the Company cannot guarantee that its estimates and assumptions will be accurate. If such estimates and assumptions prove to be inaccurate, the Company may be
required to make adjustments to these estimates in future periods.

Accounts Receivable

The Company maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from the inability of our trade customers to make required payments. The
Company provides a general allowance for customer accounts based on historical collection and write-off experience, and a specific allowance for any individually significant customers who
are known to be experiencing financial

17

---

difficulties. Judgment is critical because some retail customers have experienced financial difficulties. If the financial condition of such retail customers were to worsen, additional allowances
might be required.

Inventories

The Company's inventories are valued at the lower of cost or market value. All stock-keeping units (SKUs) in inventory are evaluated to determine excess or slow
moving SKUs based on orders on hand and projections of future demand and market conditions. For those units in inventory that are so identified, the Company estimates market value or net sales value
based on current realization trends. If the projected net sales value is less than cost, on an individual SKU basis, an allowance is provided to reflect the lower value of that inventory. This
methodology recognizes projected inventory losses at the time such losses are evident rather than at the time goods are actually sold. The Company also identifies slow moving and obsolete piece goods
and trimming supplies that are not forecasted to be used in production and records an allowance for those items. Additionally, the Company relies on cycle counts at its warehouse and distribution
center to measure inventory quantities on hand, as a full physical inventory is not performed on an annual basis. The Company records a reserve to reflect estimated count differences based on the
results of cycle counts performed.

Asset ImpairmentGoodwill

In assessing the recoverability of the Company's fixed assets, goodwill and other non-current assets, the Company considers changes in economic
conditions and makes assumptions regarding estimated future cash flows and other factors. If these estimates or their related assumptions change in the future, the Company may be required to record
impairment charges.

Litigation and Tax Assessments

From time to time, the Company is subject to lawsuits and other claims, primarily related to employees. The Company assesses the likelihood of any adverse
judgments or outcomes to these matters as well as the potential range of probable losses. A determination of the amount of accrual required, if any, for these contingencies is made after careful
analysis of each matter. The required accrual may change in the future due to new developments in any matter or changes in approach (such as a change in settlement strategy) in dealing with these
matters. The Company does not presently believe that any such matter will have a material adverse effect on the Company.

Additionally,
the Company is periodically engaged in various tax audits by federal and state governmental authorities incidental to its business activities. The Company records reserves
for its estimated probable losses for certain of these proceedings. It is possible that additional losses associated with these audits will be incurred, and the amounts could be material.

Healthcare and Workers' Compensation Liabilities

The Company records estimates for certain healthcare and workers' compensation costs that are self-insured programs. These reserves and the related
benefit expenses are developed using actuarial principles and assumptions which consider a number of factors, including historical claim experiences. Each period, the Company estimates the relevant
factors, based primarily on historical data and uses this information to determine the assumptions underlying its reserve calculations. An extensive degree of judgment is used in this estimation
process. Should a greater amount of claims occur than what was estimated or costs of medical care increase beyond what was anticipated, reserves recorded may not be sufficient and additional charges
to the consolidated financial statements could be required.

18

---

Revenue Recognition

Revenue from the sale of products is generally recognized upon shipment of products to customers. Allowances for estimated returns, discounts and retailer
promotions and incentives are recognized when sales are recorded and are based on historical trends. Significant management judgments and estimates must be made and used in connection with
establishing these allowances in any accounting period. Material differences may result in the amount and timing of revenues for any period if management makes different judgments or utilizes
different estimates.

Reorganization Charges

The Company has provided for reorganization charges in fiscal 2002 and 2001 to reduce the manufacturing and administrative cost structure and to exit
underperforming businesses. These charges were based on judgments about the future net realizable value of assets of closed facilities, net realizable value of other assets to be disposed of and exit
costs to be incurred for severance and other liabilities. If actual amounts differ from the estimates, adjustments will be required in future consolidated statements of income.

Results of Operations

Business Reorganization

The Company's strategy has been to source production internationally in order to remain competitive in the apparel marketplace and to provide
high-quality, low-cost products as a value to its customers. The 2002 and 2001 reorganizations are the results of this strategy.

January 8, 2002, the Company announced plans to close its cutting facility in Weslaco, Texas. Accordingly, the Company recorded a $1.0 million pre-tax charge
to operations in reorganization costs for the quarter ended March 31, 2002. All 142 employees at the Weslaco facility were terminated in conjunction with the closure, which was completed in
June 2002. Severance payments of $0.7 million and other employee termination costs of $0.3 million were paid during fiscal 2002. Closing this facility is expected to result in
approximately $0.3 to $0.6 million annually in cost savings, depending on production volumes.

In
conjunction with the closure of the Edinburg, Texas manufacturing facility in fiscal 2001 (see2001 Reorganizationbelow), the net book
value of the facility of $2.2 million was written off since the net realizable value of the facility was expected to be insignificant. Subsequent to marketing this facility nationally, having
appraisals completed on the property, and receiving an initial offer for this facility during the second quarter of fiscal 2002 (in excess of the pre-closure net book value), the Company
reversed the original facility write-down and classified the facility as an asset held for sale. The $2.2 million reversal was recorded as a credit to reorganization costs in the
income statement in the second quarter of 2002. The Company is actively marketing the property and plans to sell the facility by the middle of calendar 2003.

On
September 30, 2002, the Company announced plans to close one of its manufacturing facilities in the Dominican Republic. Accordingly, the Company recorded a $0.6 million
pre-tax charge to operations in reorganization costs in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2002. All 341 employees at the facility were terminated in conjunction with the closure, which was
completed in November 2002. Severance payments of $0.5 million and other employee termination and administrative costs of $0.1 million are expected to be substantially paid by
December 31, 2002, and have been included in accrued liabilities as of September 30, 2002.

On
September 30, 2002, the Company settled an outstanding lawsuit for $1.3 million related to a claim by a former employee for wrongful discharge. As a result of this
settlement, the Company recorded a $3.2 million credit to reorganization costs in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2002.

2001 Reorganization

On March 26, 2001, the Company announced plans to close its manufacturing facility in Edinburg, Texas, and its operations in Japan. The Company recorded a
$20.8 million charge to operations ($14.3 million after taxes) in the quarter ended March 31, 2001. The charge consisted of $8.6 million in legal costs, $8.1 million
in employee termination and related costs, $3.1 million in plant and equipment impairments and $1.0 million in other asset write downs.

Severance
and other employee related payments of $5.7 million have been made as of September 30, 2002, and all other employee termination costs of $1.2 million are
expected to be paid by the end of fiscal 2003. A $0.7 million pre-tax reduction of the charges for the 2001 reorganization was credited to operations in the fourth quarter of fiscal
2001 as a result of lower than expected costs

20

---

related to terminated employees and better than expected recoveries on equipment, offset by lower than anticipated recoveries on inventories and receivables in Japan.

The
$8.6 million charge for legal costs included a $1.6 million cash settlement for certain claims and $7.0 million for estimated losses on unsettled claims against
the Company, including two jury verdicts totaling $5.2 million, which were returned against subsidiaries of the Company. One of the verdicts was settled on September 30, 2002 for
$1.3 million. The other case is currently on appeal. Many of the legal claims against the Company related to claims for wrongful discharge and common law tort by former employees of the
Company's sewing facilities in south Texas that were closed in previous years.

Fiscal 2002 Compared to Fiscal 2001

Net Sales

Net sales increased $37.2 million, or 8.4%, to $481.8 million in fiscal 2002, compared to net sales of $444.6 million in fiscal 2001. The
increase in net sales during fiscal 2002 is primarily attributable to increased sales of Haggar® branded products to a few key customers due to the customers' change in product focus, and
increases in Claiborne® and Haggar Direct store sales. These increases were offset by a decrease in sales at Jerell due to a reduction in sales to specialty stores. Unit sales increased
21.2% and the average sales price decreased 12.8%.

Gross Profit

Gross profit as a percentage of net sales increased to 27.8% in fiscal 2002, compared to 26.3% in fiscal 2001. Absent the impact of the reorganization costs
previously discussed, the gross profit percentage would have been 27.0% and 30.8% in fiscal 2002 and 2001, respectively. This decrease in gross profit percentage is primarily related to decreases in
sales prices due to pressures in the marketplace by customers and competitors and an $8.7 million increase in cost of goods sold in fiscal 2002 as a result of the reclassification of certain
inventoriable costs from selling general and administrative expenses.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of net sales has decreased to 24.6% in fiscal 2002 from 27.9% in fiscal 2001. The
$5.5 million, or 4.4%, decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses primarily relates to reduced marketing expenses of $4.6 million which was primarily a postponement of
television advertising due to the overall economic conditions of the U.S., reduced depreciation expense of $1.2 million, as certain fixed assets became fully depreciated during the fiscal year,
Haggar Japan expense reductions of $0.9 million due to the elimination of the Japan operations in fiscal 2001, reduced women's wear expenses of $1.5 million due to the elimination of
goodwill amortization, a $1.0 million reduction in legal reserves, and the $8.7 million expense reclassification discussed above under "Gross Profit." These decreases are
offset by increases in insurance expense of $3.8 million due to increased policy premiums, bonus expense for management of $2.6 million, $2.9 million in expenses related to
increased sales for the Claiborne® division and increased administrative expenses for the retail stores of $1.9 million related to increased sales and new

21

---

store activity, a $1.0 million severance charge related to the reduction of the Company's sales force and $0.2 million in other administrative expense increases.

Royalty Income

Royalty income decreased $0.6 million, or 31.6%, to $1.3 million in fiscal 2002, compared to $1.9 million in fiscal 2001. The decrease
relates primarily to a full fiscal year of weaker sales of dress shirts due to a domestic licensee's loss of a key customer during fiscal 2001.

Other Income (Expense)

Other income (expense) increased $0.7 million, to $0.6 million for fiscal 2002, compared to $(0.1) million in fiscal 2001. The increase
relates to the sale of a manufacturing facility by the Company. In June 2002, the Company sold a manufacturing facility for net cash proceeds of $80,000 and a note receivable bearing interest
at 8.0% and payable in monthly installments with a balloon payment for the outstanding balance in June 2006. The sale resulted in a pre-tax gain of approximately $479,000.

Interest Expense

Interest expense decreased $1.5 million, or 29.4%, to $3.6 million in fiscal 2002, compared to $5.1 million in fiscal 2001, primarily due to
significantly reduced debt levels throughout fiscal 2002 combined with lower interest rates on variable rate debt.

Income Taxes

The Company's income tax provision as a percentage of income before income tax and cumulative effect of accounting change was 42.1% in fiscal 2002. Comparatively,
the Company's income tax benefit as a percentage of loss before income tax and cumulative effect of accounting change was 19.3% in fiscal 2001. The fiscal 2002 effective tax rate exceeded the
statutory federal tax rate of 35% primarily as a result of state income taxes. The benefit in fiscal 2001 was less than the statutory rate of 35% primarily as a result of nondeductible goodwill
amortization and the absence of a tax benefit associated with the Company's foreign losses.

Cumulative Effect of Accounting Change

On October 1, 2001, the Company adopted SFAS No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets", and recorded a $15.6 million impairment of
goodwill related to the 1999 acquisition of Jerell, the Company's women's wear subsidiary. Subsequent to the acquisition, pricing pressures and a weak retail environment for women's apparel resulted
in a revised earnings forecast for Jerell and the women's wear business. In order to determine the fair value of goodwill, the Company obtained an independent appraisal, which considered both prices
of comparable businesses and the discounted value of projected cash flows.

The
Company subsequently performed its annual impairment test of goodwill in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2002 and determined that the fair value of Jerell exceeded its carrying value,
including goodwill. Therefore, no further revisions to the Company's goodwill were required.

The
change in the carrying amount of goodwill for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2002 is as follows (in thousands):

Fiscal 2001 Compared to Fiscal 2000

Net Sales

Net sales increased $11.7 million, or 2.7%, to $444.6 million in fiscal 2001, compared to net sales of $432.9 million in fiscal 2000. The
increase in net sales during fiscal 2001 was attributable to increased sales to a few key customers due to the customers' changes in product focus, and increases in Claiborne®, women's
wear and private label sales. Unit sales increased 10.6% and the average sales price decreased 7.9%.

Gross Profit

Gross profit as a percentage of net sales decreased to 26.3% in fiscal 2001, compared to 33.6% in fiscal 2000. Gross profit for fiscal 2001 included the impact of
$20.1 million in costs related to 2001 reorganization activities. Excluding these costs, the gross profit percentage would have been 30.8% in fiscal 2001, compared to 33.6% in fiscal 2000. The
decrease in gross profit as a percentage of net sales was primarily related to decreases in sales prices due to pressures in the marketplace by customers and competitors.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of net sales decreased to 27.9% in fiscal 2001 from 29.8% in fiscal 2000. The $4.9 million
decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses
primarily related to reduced licensing marketing expenses of $0.8 million, Haggar Japan expense reduction of $1.4 million due to the elimination of the Japan operations in fiscal 2001,
reduced legal, marketing, and bonuses of $6.0 million and reduced women's wear expenses of $1.3 million. These decreases were offset by increases in shipping expenses of
$2.2 million and increases in administrative and insurance expenses of $2.4 million.

Royalty Income

Royalty income decreased $0.6 million, or 25%, to $1.9 million in fiscal 2001, compared to $2.4 million in 2000. The decrease related
primarily to a weaker sales of dress shirts due to a domestic licensee's loss of a key customer during fiscal 2001.

Other Income (Expense)

Other income (expense) decreased $1.5 million, or 107.1%, to $0.1 million in expense for fiscal 2001, compared to $1.4 million in income for
fiscal 2000. This decrease is primarily due to fewer sales of equipment in fiscal 2001 than in fiscal 2000.

Interest Expense

Interest expense increased $1.0 million, or 24.4%, to $5.1 million in fiscal 2001, compared to $4.1 million in fiscal 2000 primarily due to
higher outstanding debt levels during the year and higher average interest rates on variable rate debt.

Income Taxes

The Company's income tax benefit as a percentage of loss before income tax and cumulative effect of accounting change was 19.3% in fiscal 2001. Comparatively, the
Company's income tax provision as a percentage of income before income tax and cumulative effect of accounting change was 43.2% in fiscal 2000. The benefit in fiscal 2001 was less than the statutory
rate of 35% primarily as a result of nondeductible goodwill amortization and the absence of a tax benefit associated with the Company's foreign losses. The fiscal 2000 effective tax rate exceeded the
statutory federal rate primarily as a result of state income taxes.

Segment Profitability

The Company's three operating segments are business units that offer similar products through different distribution channels. The Company's wholesale segment
designs, manufactures, imports and markets casual and dress men's and women's apparel to retailers throughout North America and the United Kingdom. The Company also operates two other segments,
including the retail segment, which markets Haggar® branded products through 68 Company operated stores located in the Company's Dallas headquarters and in outlet malls throughout the
United States, and a licensing segment, which generates royalty income by licensing the Company's trademarks for use by other manufacturers of specified products in specified geographic areas. The
retail and licensing segments are not material for separate disclosure, and have been combined in the results below. The Company evaluates segment performance and allocates Company resources based on
segment profits.

Intercompany
sales from the wholesale segment to the retail segment are not reflected in wholesale segment net sales. Additionally, there is no profit recorded on sales from the
wholesale segment to the retail segment. The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in Note 1 to the Company's consolidated financial statements contained in "Item
8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data." Segment profit (loss) is comprised of segment income before interest expense, provision (benefit) for income taxes and cumulative effect of accounting
change.

The
table below reflects the Company's segment results for all periods presented:

Wholesale Segment

Wholesale segment net sales increased $32.4 million, or 8.0%, to $435.6 million in fiscal 2002 from $403.1 million in fiscal 2001. The
increase in wholesale segment net sales during fiscal 2002 is attributable to increased sales of Haggar® and Claiborne® branded products to a few key customers due to the
customers' changes in product focus. Wholesale segment net sales increased $12.0 million, or 3.1%, from fiscal 2000 to fiscal 2001. The increase in net sales during fiscal 2001 is attributable
to increases in Claiborne®, women's wear, and private label sales, as well as increased sales of Haggar® branded products to several customers due to the customers' changes in
product focus.

Wholesale
segment profit increased $22.5 million to a $17.5 million profit in fiscal 2002, compared to a $5.0 million loss in fiscal 2001. Approximately
$24.0 million of the increase in segment profit during fiscal 2002 was attributable to 2002 and 2001 reorganization activities. This increase in segment profit was partially offset by decreased
gross profit related to decreases in sales prices due to pressures in the marketplace by customers and competitors. Wholesale segment profit decreased $25.3 million to a $5.0 million
loss in fiscal 2001, compared to a $20.2 million profit in fiscal 2000. This decrease was primarily attributable to 2001 reorganization activities as well as a decrease in gross profit before
reorganization costs due to decreases in sales price attributable to market price pressures.

Seasonality

The Company's sales have exhibited some seasonality with higher sales and income in the second and fourth quarters, which are prior to and during the selling
seasons for spring and fall merchandise, respectively, which reflect the buying patterns of the Company's customers. The following table presents certain data for each of the Company's last eight
fiscal quarters. The quarterly data is unaudited but gives effect to all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) necessary, in the opinion of management of the Company, to present

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company's principal sources of liquidity have been cash flows from operations and borrowings under its unsecured revolving credit facility. As of
September 30, 2002, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $4.1 million.

In
June 2002, the Company amended and restated its unsecured revolving credit agreement with certain banks primarily to increase the maximum borrowings to $110.0 million
and to extend the maturity date to June 30, 2005. As of September 30, 2002, the Company had $12.0 million outstanding on the revolver and had additional available borrowing
capacity of approximately $82.9 million.

25

---

Available borrowings under the credit facility are based on a formula involving a percentage of eligible receivables and inventories adjusted by the Company's standby letters of credit. Interest on
the outstanding debt varies based upon margins over a bank base rate or a LIBOR rate, as selected by the Company. The applicable margin is dependent upon the ratio of the Company's total indebtedness
at the end of each fiscal quarter to its operating cash flow for the preceding year. The credit facility prohibits the Company from pledging its accounts receivables and inventories, contains
limitations on incurring additional indebtedness, requires maintaining minimum net worth levels of the Company and the Company's main operating subsidiary, and also requires the maintenance of certain
financial ratios. The Company's failure to satisfy these covenants could adversely affect the Company's ability to acquire future capital to meet its needs and to pay dividends. As of
September 30, 2002, the Company was in full compliance with its financial and other covenants.

The
Company incurred approximately $0.2 million in commitment fees related to the available borrowing capacity for the year ended September 30, 2002. The interest rates for
the year ended September 30, 2002, ranged from 3.1% to 6.0%. The interest rate at September 30, 2002 was 4.75% for the revolving credit facility.

Long-term
debt also includes $10.7 million in senior notes. Significant terms of the senior notes include interest payable semi-annually at 8.49% per annum
and annual principal payments of approximately $3.6 million through fiscal 2005. 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.

Long-term
debt also includes $2.3 million in Industrial Development Revenue Bonds ("IDR"). Significant terms of the IDR bonds include interest at a rate equal to that
of high quality, short-term, tax exempt obligations, as defined in the agreement. The interest rate for fiscal 2002 was 1.8%. The IDR bonds are payable in annual installments of
$0.1 million to $0.2 million, with a final payment of $2.0 million in 2005. The IDR bonds are collateralized by certain buildings and equipment of $0.5 million as of
September 30, 2002.

Certain
of the Company's long-term debt facilities contain restrictions on the ability of the Company's subsidiaries to transfer funds to the Company.

As
of September 30, 2002, the Company had outstanding $22.9 million of trade letters of credit for the purchase of inventory from foreign suppliers in the ordinary course
of business. These trade letters of credit, generally for periods of less than six months, will only be paid upon satisfactory receipt of the inventory by the Company. As of September 30, 2002,
the Company had entered into $7.3 million of standby letters of credit representing contingent guarantees of performance under self-insurance and other programs. These commitments
would only be drawn upon if the Company were to fail to meet its claims obligations.

During
fiscal 2002, the Company paid quarterly dividends of $0.05 per share, aggregating $1.3 million, $0.3 million of which were cash dividends declared during the fourth quarter
of fiscal 2001. During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2002, the Company declared a cash dividend of $0.05 per share payable to the stockholders of record on November 4, 2002. The fourth quarter
dividend of approximately $0.3 million was paid in November 2002.

The
Company has other contractual obligations and commercial commitments as described in "Disclosures About Contractual Obligations And Commercial Commitments."

From
time to time, the Company will sell or dispose of assets which it feels are under-performing or are no longer needed in the businesses in which the Company operates. There can be no
assurance that the Company will be able to sell or dispose of the assets in a manner which is profitable to the Company, or at all. In addition, the Company will make investments in assets that
management

26

---

believes are needed to acquire and maintain the businesses in which the Company operates. Again, there can be no assurance that the Company can obtain a reasonable return on any such investments.

A
director of the Company is a partner of a law firm that rendered various legal services for the Company during fiscal 2002, 2001 and 2000. The Company paid the law firm approximately
$606,000, $286,000 and $62,000 for legal services during fiscal 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively. All amounts paid by the Company were at the usual and customary rates charged to other clients of the
law firm. There were no amounts due to such firm from the Company as of September 30, 2002 and 2001.

During
fiscal 1991, the Company entered into split-dollar life insurance agreements with trusts established by three former officers of the Company. Pursuant to these agreements, the
Company is entitled to the cumulative premiums it has paid on the policies less the Company's interest in policy loans and related accrued interest. No further premiums are due on these policies. The
Company's interest in the policies was $1.1 million at September 30, 2002, which is net of $9.1 million in policy loans made to the Company bearing interest at 7.7%, and is
recorded in other assets on the balance sheet. Interest expense for the year ended September 30, 2002 was $686,000 related to these policy loans.

Two
jury verdicts totaling $5.2 million have been returned against subsidiaries of the Company related to claims by former employees for wrongful discharge and common law tort.
One of the verdicts was settled on September 30, 2002 for $1.3 million. The other case is currently on appeal, as management, based on the advice of legal counsel, believes the verdict
in this lawsuit is both legally and factually incorrect. Management does not believe that the outcome of this appeal will have a material adverse effect on the Company. The Company is involved in
various claims and lawsuits incidental to its business. In the opinion of management, these claims and suits in the aggregate will not have a material adverse effect on the Company.

The
Company believes that the cash flows from operations and the funds available under its revolving credit facility will be adequate to meet its working capital, debt service,
anticipated capital expenditures and related financing needs for calendar 2003. The Company's future cash flows from operations may be impacted by factors including, but not limited to:



The
Company is dependent upon its ability to retain existing customers. The Company's failure to retain existing customers could significantly affect future profitability. The timing and
volume of customer purchases can vary significantly from period to period, and there is no assurance that the volume from any particular customer will continue beyond the current period. The loss of
business of one or more principal customers or a change in the number or character of orders from a particular customer could have a material adverse effect on the Company.

Due
to the range of products that the Company provides, the product sales mix can produce a range of profit margins. Some businesses in which the Company operates produce lower profit
margins than others.

27

Deteriorating
or weak economic conditions, including slowdowns at either the national or regional levels, or future terrorist attacks or related actions in the war against terrorism,
could affect future sales and profitability of the Company. The Company is not in a position to determine how it will be affected by these circumstances, how extensive the effects may be, or for how
long it may be impacted by these circumstances.

The
Company's trade accounts receivable potentially expose the Company to concentrations of credit risk as the majority of its customers are in the retail apparel industry. The Company
performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers' financial conditions and establishes an allowance for doubtful accounts based upon factors related to the credit risk of specific customers,
historical trends and other information.

The
Company's effectiveness in managing its manufacturing processes will have a direct impact on its future profitability. The Company regularly makes decisions that affect production
schedules, shipping schedules, and inventory levels. The Company's effectiveness in managing these areas could impact future profitability.

Fiscal 2002 Cash Flow Results

For fiscal 2002, cash flows provided by operating activities were approximately $22.6 million. The cash provided from operations was primarily the result
of income as adjusted for non-cash items, a $7.0 million decrease in accounts receivable and a $16.5 million increase in accrued wages, workers' compensation, other employee
benefits and other accrued liabilities. These increases in cash flows were offset by a $11.1 million decrease in accounts payable and a $3.3 million increase in inventories. Inventories
at the end of fiscal 2002 increased to $101.0 million from $97.7 million at the end of fiscal 2001. The increase in inventory levels reflects the business expansion with
Claiborne® division product lines, Haggar® branded products and retail sales, offset by decreases in women's wear.

The
Company used approximately $3.2 million cash in investing activities primarily due to purchases of property, plant and equipment principally related to fixtures and leasehold
improvements for new retail stores as well as additional manufacturing equipment.

The
Company used approximately $23.1 million cash in financing activities due to net repayments of the long-term debt of $28.3 million and dividend payments of
$1.3 million offset by an increase in cash book overdrafts of $6.0 million and proceeds from the common stock issuance in fiscal 2002 of $0.9 million.

Fiscal 2001 Cash Flow Results

Cash from the Company's operating activities for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2001 was $7.9 million. The cash provided was primarily a result
of an increase in accounts payable and accrued liabilities of $12.9 million offset by the increase in inventory of $5.1 million. The Company used cash in investing activities of
$6.3 million during fiscal 2001 primarily for the purchases of property, plant and equipment of $5.3 million. Cash flows used in financing activities of $0.1 million for fiscal
2001 were primarily the result of a net increase in long-term debt of $3.0 million offset by $3.1 million in purchases of treasury stock and the payment of dividends.

Fiscal 2000 Cash Flow Results

The Company used cash from operating activities for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2000, of $3.2 million. The cash used was primarily a result
of an increase in inventory of $6.6 million, an increase of accounts receivable of $4.8 million and a decrease in accounts payable and accrued liabilities of $12.8 million offset
by net income of $9.3 million. The Company used cash in investing activities of $11.9 million during fiscal 2000 primarily for the purchases of property, plant and

28

---

equipment of $10.6 million. Cash flows provided by financing activities of $15.6 million for fiscal 2000 were primarily the result of a net increase in long-term debt of
$24.9 million offset predominately by $8.2 million in purchases of treasury stock.

Effects of Inflation

Inflation did not materially impact the Company in fiscal 2002, 2001 or 2000.

The Company has other financial commitments as of September 30, 2002, that may require the use of funds under certain circumstances. The
Company has outstanding $22.9 million of trade letters of credit for the purchase of inventory from foreign suppliers in the ordinary course of business. These letters of credit, generally for
periods of less than six months, will only be paid upon satisfactory receipt of the inventory by the Company. The Company has entered into $7.3 million of standby letters of credit representing
contingent guarantees of performance under self-insurance and other programs. These commitments would only be drawn upon if the Company were to fail to meet its claims obligations.

New Accounting Standards

In June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued SFAS No. 143, "Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations" ("SFAS
No. 143.") This Standard addresses the financial accounting and reporting for obligations associated with the retirement of tangible long-lived assets and the associated asset
retirement costs. The standard applies to legal obligations associated with the retirement of long-lived assets that result from the acquisition, construction, development and/or normal
use of the asset. SFAS No. 143 requires that the fair value of a liability for an asset retirement obligation be recognized in the period in which it is incurred if a reasonable estimate of
fair value can be made. The
fair value of the liability is added to the carrying amount of the associated asset and this additional carrying amount is depreciated over the life of the asset. The liability is

accreted at the end of each period through charges to operating expense. If the obligation is settled for other than the carrying amount of the liability, a gain or loss on settlement is recognized.
SFAS No. 143 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001 or the first quarter of fiscal 2003 for the Company. Management does not expect the adoption of SFAS
No. 143 to have a material impact on the Company's financial statements

In
October 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets" ("SFAS No. 144.") This Standard provides
a single accounting model for long-lived assets to be disposed of and significantly changes the criteria that would have to be met to classify an asset as held for sale. Classification as
held for sale is an important distinction since such assets are not depreciated and are stated at the lower of fair value and carrying amount. This standard also requires expected future operating
losses from discontinued operations to be displayed in the period(s) in which losses are incurred, rather than as of the measurement date as presently required. SFAS No. 144 is effective for
fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001 or the first quarter of fiscal 2003 for the Company. Management does not expect the adoption of SFAS No. 144 to have a material impact on
the Company's financial statements.

In
June 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 146, "Accounting for Exit or Disposal Activities" ("SFAS No. 146.") SFAS No. 146 addresses significant issues regarding
the recognition, measurement, and reporting of costs that are associated with exit and disposal activities, including restructuring activities that are currently accounted for pursuant to the guidance
that the Emerging Issues Task Force ("EITF") has set forth in EITF Issue No. 94-3, "Liability Recognition for Certain Employee Termination Benefits and Other Costs to Exit an
Activity (including Certain Costs Incurred in a Restructuring)." The scope of SFAS No. 146 also includes (1) costs related to terminating a contract that is not a capital lease and
(2) certain termination benefits to employees who are involuntarily terminated. SFAS No. 146 will be effective for exit or disposal activities that are initiated after
December 31, 2002. Management is still evaluating the impact of the adoption of SFAS No. 146.

ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

The Company is exposed to market risk from changes in foreign currency exchange risk and interest rate risk, which may adversely affect its financial position,
results of operations and cash flows. The Company does not use financial instruments for trading or other speculative purposes and is not a party to any derivative financial instrument.

The
Company is exposed to interest rate risk primarily through its borrowing activities. As of September 30, 2002, the Company had $14.3 million outstanding under its
revolving credit line agreement and other variable rate debt. A one percentage point increase in the variable interest rate based on debt amounts outstanding at September 30, 2002, would result
in an approximately $0.1 million
reduction in annual pre-tax earnings. See "Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of OperationsLiquidity and Capital Resources" and
"Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary DataNote 5" for additional discussion of the terms of the Company's credit facilities.

Report of Independent Accountants

To
the Board of Directors and Shareholders of
  Haggar Corp.:

In
our opinion, the accompanying consolidated balance sheet and the related consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income, stockholders' equity and cash flows present
fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Haggar Corp. and its Subsidiaries (the "Company") at September 30, 2002, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for
the year then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management; our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit of these statements in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the
United States of America, which require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes
examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and
evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.The financial statements
of the Company as of September 30, 2001, and for each of the two years in the period ended September 30, 2001, before the revisions described in Notes 2 and 10, were audited by other
independent accountants who have ceased operations. Those independent accountants expressed an unqualified opinion on those financial statements in their report dated November 1, 2001.

As
discussed above, the financial statements of the Company as of September 30, 2001, and for each of the two years in the period ended September 30, 2001, were audited by
other independent accountants who have ceased operations. As described in Notes 2 and 10, these financial statements have been revised to include the transitional disclosures required by Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets", which was adopted by the Company as of October 1, 2001, and the disclosures required by Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 131, "Disclosures About Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information". We audited the transitional disclosures and segment disclosures described in Notes
2 and 10. In our opinion, the transitional
disclosures and segment disclosures for 2001 and 2000 in Notes 2 and 10 are appropriate. However, we were not engaged to audit, review, or apply any procedures to the 2001 or 2000 financial statements
of the Company other than with respect to such disclosures and, accordingly, we do not express an opinion or any other form of assurance on the 2001 or 2000 financial statements taken as a whole.

Report of Independent Public Accountants

To
Haggar Corp.:

We
have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Haggar Corp. (a Nevada corporation) and subsidiaries as of September 30, 2001 and 2000, and the related
consolidated statements of operations, stockholders' equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended September 30, 2001. These financial statements are the responsibility
of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We
conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable
assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe
that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In
our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Haggar Corp. and subsidiaries as of September 30,
2001 and 2000, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended September 30, 2001, in conformity with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States.

Haggar Corp. and Subsidiaries        Notes to Consolidated Financial StatementsSeptember 30, 2002, 2001 and 2000

1. Operations and Significant Accounting Policies

Nature of Operations

Haggar Corp. (a Nevada corporation) and subsidiaries (the "Company") design, manufacture, import and market men's apparel products, including pants, shorts,
suits, sportcoats, sweaters and shirts, and women's sportswear and dresses. The Company's products are sold primarily to retail stores throughout the United States including major department stores,
specialty stores and mass market retailers. The Company offers its premium men's apparel products under the Haggar® brand name, and also offers a more moderately priced line of products
through its mass-market retailer division, The Horizon Group. In addition, the Company offers retailers quality products bearing the retailer's own labels. Jerell, Ltd. ("Jerell"),
a subsidiary acquired in 1999, offers women's apparel under various brand names. The Company's Haggar Direct, Inc. subsidiary was formed in 1995 for the purpose of developing and operating
retail stores located in retail outlet malls throughout the United States. The Company's foreign operations are conducted through Haggar Apparel, Ltd. and Haggar Canada Co., which market the
Company's branded products in the United Kingdom and Canada, respectively. Additionally, the Company derives royalty income from the use of its trademarks by manufacturers of various products that the
Company does not produce. The Company is headquartered in Dallas, Texas, with manufacturing facilities in Mexico and the Dominican Republic.

Basis of Presentation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Haggar Corp., Haggar Clothing Co. ("Clothing Co."), which is the main operating subsidiary, Haggar
Direct, Inc., Haggar Apparel Ltd., Jerell, Haggar Japan Co., Ltd., Haggar Canada Co. and all other subsidiaries of Clothing Co. All significant intercompany transactions and
balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

The
accompanying consolidated financial statements reflect the application of certain accounting policies as described below and in the remaining notes.

Reclassifications

Certain items in the prior year presentation have been reclassified to current year presentation.

During
fiscal 2002, the Company reclassified certain inventoriable costs of $8.7 million from selling, general and administrative expenses to cost of goods sold.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

For purposes of the statements of cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash
equivalents. These cash equivalents are stated at cost, which approximates fair value.

The
Company incurs book overdrafts when outstanding checks exceed cash in its banks. These book overdrafts are recorded in accounts payable. The Company had $6.0 million in book
overdrafts at September 30, 2002.

37

---

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

Accounts receivable are net of allowances for doubtful accounts of $381,000 and $968,000 at September 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively.

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 largest customer, J.C. Penney Company, Inc., accounted for approximately 21%, 23% and 25% of the Company's net sales during the fiscal years ended
September 30, 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively, and approximately 25% and 22% of the Company's outstanding trade receivables as of September 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively. The
Company's second largest customer, Kohl's Department Stores, Inc., accounted for approximately 16%, 12% and 11% of the Company's net sales during the fiscal years ended September 30,
2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively, and approximately 13% and 11% of the Company's outstanding trade receivables as of September 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively. The Company's third largest
customer, Wal-Mart, accounted for approximately 9%, 11% and 8% of the Company's net sales for the fiscal years ended September 30, 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively, and
approximately 6% and 7% of the Company's outstanding trade receivables as of September 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively. No other customer accounts for more than 10% of consolidated revenues.
The loss of the business of one or more of the Company's larger customers could have a material adverse effect on the Company's results of operations. The Company has no long-term
commitments or contracts with any of its customers. The Company establishes an allowance for doubtful accounts based upon factors surrounding the credit risk of specific customers, historical trends
and other information.

Depreciation and Amortization

The Company provides for depreciation and amortization using straight-line methods by charges to operations in amounts that allocate the cost of the
assets over their estimated useful lives, which are shown below:

Asset Classification

Estimated
Useful LifeBuildings

15-40Furniture, fixtures and equipment

3-7Leasehold improvements

Life of Lease


Long-Lived Assets

Long-lived assets held and used by the Company are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying amount of
an asset may not be recoverable. Impairments, if any, are measured based on the fair value of the related asset(s).

Goodwill

Goodwill is the excess of the purchase price paid over the fair value of net assets of businesses acquired. Effective October 1, 2001 (see Note 2),
goodwill is not amortized, but is tested for impairment on an annual basis, or more frequently as impairment indicators arise. Impairment tests, which involve the use of estimates related to the fair
market value of the business operations with which goodwill is associated, are performed at the end of the Company's fourth quarter. Losses, if any, resulting from impairment tests will be reflected
in operating income in the income statement.

39

---

Revenue Recognition

Revenue from the sale of products is generally recognized upon shipment of products to customers. Allowances for estimated returns, discounts and incentives are
recognized when sales are recorded and are based on customer arrangements and influenced by historical trends.

Advertising

Production costs of commercials and programming are charged to operations in the year first aired. The costs of other advertising, promotion and marketing
programs are charged to operations in the year incurred. For fiscal years 2002, 2001 and 2000, total advertising expense was $13.2 million, $16.9 million and $18.8 million,
respectively, and is recorded in selling, general and administrative expenses in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.

Shipping and Handling Fees

The Company records shipping and handling fees as selling, general and administrative expense. For the years ended September 30, 2002, 2001 and 2000, such
costs were $12.6 million, $12.6 million and $10.4 million, respectively.

Foreign Currency Translation

Non-U.S. assets and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollars using the year-end exchange rates. Revenues and expenses are translated
at average exchange rates during the year. Net foreign currency translation losses or gains are recorded in the equity section of the balance sheet as comprehensive income.

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 and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses
during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

2. Asset ImpairmentGoodwill

On October 1, 2001, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets" ("SFAS
No. 142"), and recorded a $15.6 million impairment of goodwill related to the 1999 acquisition of Jerell, the Company's women's wear subsidiary. There was no tax benefit associated with
the impairment charge. Subsequent to the acquisition, pricing pressures and a weak retail environment for women's apparel resulted in a revised earnings forecast for Jerell
and the women's wear business. In order to determine the fair value of goodwill, the Company obtained an independent appraisal, which considered both prices of comparable businesses and the discounted
value of projected cash flows.

40

---

The
Company subsequently performed its annual impairment test of goodwill in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2002 and determined that the fair value of Jerell exceeded its carrying value.
Therefore, no further revisions to the Company's goodwill were required.

The
change in the carrying amount of goodwill for the year ended September 30, 2002 is as follows (in thousands):

3. Net Income Per Common ShareBasic and Diluted

Basic earnings per share excludes dilution and is computed by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period.
Diluted earnings per share is computed
by dividing net income by the sum of the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period and the number of equivalent shares assumed outstanding under the Company's stock-based
compensation plans using the treasury stock method.

Options
to purchase 759,610 common shares at prices ranging from $11.00 to $23.00 were excluded from the diluted earnings per share calculations for the fiscal year ended
September 30, 2002 because

41

the options' exercise prices were greater than the average market price of the common shares during the year. Options to purchase 1,585,363 common shares at prices ranging from $11.00 to $23.00 were
excluded from the diluted earnings per share calculation for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2001 due to the net loss recorded during the period.

Options
to purchase 826,865 common shares at prices ranging from $12.875 to $23.00 were excluded from the diluted earnings per share calculations for the fiscal year ended
September 30, 2000 because the options' exercise prices were greater than the average market price of the common share during the period.

Net
assets mortgaged or subject to a lien under the Industrial Development Revenue Bonds totaled approximately $545,000 at September 30, 2002.

In
June 2002, the Company amended and restated its unsecured revolving credit line agreement (the "Agreement") with certain banks primarily to increase the maximum borrowings to
$110.0 million and to extend the maturity date to June 30, 2005. As of September 30, 2002, the Company had additional available borrowing capacity of approximately
$82.9 million under this Agreement. The Company incurred approximately $0.2 million in commitment fees related to the available borrowing capacity during the fiscal year ended
September 30, 2002. The interest rates ranged from 3.1% to 6.0% during fiscal 2002 and were based on variable market rates (LIBOR or prime rate). The interest rate at September 30, 2002,
was 4.75%. The Agreement prohibits the Company from pledging its accounts receivables and inventories, contains limitations on incurring additional indebtedness, requires maintaining minimum net worth
levels of the Company and the Company's main operating subsidiary, and also requires the maintenance of certain financial ratios. The Agreement also prohibits the payment of any dividend if a default
exists after giving effect to such a dividend.

Long-term
debt also includes $10.7 million in senior notes. Significant terms of the senior notes include interest payable semi-annually at 8.49% per annum
and annual principal payments through fiscal 2005. 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.

Certain
of the Company's long-term debt facilities contain restrictions on the ability of the Company's subsidiaries to transfer funds to the Company.

Rental
expense was $9.3 million, $8.5 million and $8.4 million in the fiscal years ended September 30, 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively.

Commitments and Contingencies

The Company had approximately $30.2 million in outstanding letters of credit at September 30, 2002, primarily in connection with certain
self-insurance agreements and certain inventory purchases of the Company.

Two
jury verdicts totaling $5.2 million have been returned against subsidiaries of the Company related to claims by former employees for wrongful discharge and common law tort.
One of the verdicts was settled on September 30, 2002 for $1.3 million. In addition to the reduction of legal reserves noted in
Note 7, the Company also recorded a $1.0 million credit to selling, general and administrative expenses due to a revision on the remaining litigation assessments. The other case is
currently on appeal, as management and legal counsel believe the verdict in the lawsuit is both legally

45

---

and factually incorrect. Management does not believe that the outcome of this appeal will have a material adverse impact on its financial statements.

The
Company is involved in various other claims and lawsuits incidental to its business. In the opinion of management, these claims and suits in the aggregate will not have a material
adverse effect on the Company.

7. Business Reorganization

The Company's strategy has been to source production internationally in order to remain competitive in the apparel marketplace and to provide
high-quality, low-cost products as a value to its customers. The 2002 and 2001 reorganizations are the results of this strategy.

2002 Reorganization

The following summarizes the reorganization costs included in gross profit for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2002 ("2002 Reorganization Activities")
(in thousands):

Weslaco, Texas cutting facility closing

$

(2,157
)Dominican Republic manufacturing facility closing


589Reduction of legal reserve


(3,244
)Total reorganization costs

$
(3,812
)


On
January 8, 2002, the Company announced plans to close its cutting facility in Weslaco, Texas. Accordingly, the Company recorded a $1.0 million pre-tax charge
to operations in reorganization costs for the quarter ended March 31, 2002. All 142 employees at the Weslaco facility were terminated in conjunction with the closure, which was completed in
June 2002. Severance payments of $0.7 million and other employee termination costs of $0.3 million were paid during fiscal 2002.

In
conjunction with the closure of the Edinburg, Texas manufacturing facility in fiscal 2001 (see2001 Reorganizationbelow), the net book
value of the facility of $2.2 million was written off since the net realizable value of the facility was expected to be insignificant. Subsequent to marketing this facility nationally, having
appraisals completed on the property, and receiving an initial offer for this facility during the second quarter of fiscal 2002 (in excess of the pre-closure net book value), the Company
reversed the original facility write-down and classified the facility as an asset held for sale. The $2.2 million reversal was recorded as a credit to reorganization costs in the
income statement in the second quarter of fiscal 2002.

On
September 30, 2002, the Company announced plans to close one of its manufacturing facilities in the Dominican Republic. Accordingly, the Company recorded a $0.6
pre-tax million charge to operations in reorganization costs in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2002. All 341 employees at the facility were terminated in conjunction with the closure, which
was completed in November 2002. Severance payments of $0.5 million and other employee termination and administrative costs of $0.1 million are

46

---

expected to be substantially paid by December 31, 2002, and have been included in accrued liabilities as of September 30, 2002.

On
September 30, 2002, the Company settled an outstanding lawsuit for $1.3 million related to a claim by a former employee for wrongful discharge. As a result of this
settlement, the Company recorded a $3.2 million credit to reorganization costs in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2002.

In
addition to the reorganization activities noted above, the Company reduced its sales force during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2002, terminating 6 employees. The Company recorded a
$1.0 million pre-tax charge to operations in selling, general and administrative expenses. The full amount has been included in accrued liabilities as of September 30, 2002.
The Company will begin making periodic severance payments to these terminated employees in December 2002 which will continue through January 2004.

2001 Reorganization

On March 26, 2001, the Company announced plans to close its manufacturing facility in Edinburg, Texas, and its operations in Japan. The Company recorded a
$20.8 million charge to operations ($14.3 million after taxes) in the quarter ended March 31, 2001. The charge consisted of $8.6 million in legal costs, $8.1 million
in employee termination and related costs, $3.1 million in plant and equipment impairments and $1.0 million in other asset write downs.

Severance
and other employee related payments of $5.7 million have been made as of September 30, 2002, and all other employee termination costs of $1.2 million are
expected to be paid by the end of fiscal 2003. A $0.7 million pre-tax reduction of the charges for the 2001 reorganization was credited to operations in the fourth quarter of fiscal
2001 as a result of lower than expected costs related to terminated employees and better than expected recoveries on equipment, offset by lower than anticipated recoveries on inventories and
receivables in Japan.

The
$8.6 million charge for legal costs included a $1.6 million cash settlement for certain claims and $7.0 million for estimated losses on unsettled claims against
the Company, including two jury verdicts totaling $5.2 million, which were returned against subsidiaries of the Company. One of the verdicts was settled on September 30, 2002 for
$1.3 million. The other case is currently on appeal. Many of the legal claims against the Company relate to claims for wrongful discharge and common law tort by former employees of the
Company's sewing facilities in south Texas that were closed in previous years.

Liabilities

8. Employee Benefit Plans

The Company provides a Profit Sharing and Savings Plan (the "Plan") to all eligible employees of the Company, as defined. Participants may contribute, subject to
IRS limits, from 1% to 15% of their compensation to the Plan under Internal Revenue Code Section 401(k) ("401(k) Contributions"). Highly compensated employees, as defined, are limited to a
maximum of 10% of their compensation under the Plan for tax-deferred contributions. Participant 401(k) Contributions are 100% vested at the date they are contributed. The Company matches
401(k) contributions, subject to IRS limits, up to 50% of each participant's 401(k) contribution (25% for Jerell employees) and up to 6% of the participant's compensation. The Company's matching
401(k) contributions vest over a period of three years. The Company also may make a discretionary profit sharing contribution as a percent of the participant's eligible compensation. The Company's
discretionary profit sharing contributions vest over a period of seven years. The Company has contributed approximately $1.6 million, $1.1 million and $1.4 million for the fiscal
years ended September 30, 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively.

The
Company also has a health and welfare benefits program (the "Program") to provide eligible employees of the Company, as defined, with certain health and welfare benefits.
Contributions are made by the Company, as defined by the Program trust agreement. The Company contributed $4.1 million, $4.4 million and $4.6 million to the Trust for the fiscal
years ended September 30, 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively.

The
Company has a noncompensatory employee stock purchase plan to provide employees with a convenient way to acquire Company stock through payroll deductions. Substantially all employees
meeting limited employment qualifications may participate in the stock purchase plan.

Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan

In order to provide supplemental retirement benefits and preretirement death benefits to select executive officers, the Company formed the Haggar Corp.
Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan ("SERP"). At retirement age, as defined in the SERP, each participant will be entitled to a life annuity benefit (if married, a joint and 50% survivor annuity)
equal to 65% of the participant's average total compensation during the three prior fiscal years, reduced by any Company-provided benefit under the existing bonus savings plan. If a participant dies
before retirement, the surviving spouse or other beneficiary will receive a death benefit equal to $400,000 per year payable annually for 10 years.

The
liabilities under these agreements are being accrued over the officers' remaining periods of employment so that, on the date of their retirement, the then-present value
of the annual payments will have been accrued. The liability for recording the SERP was $2.9 million and $1.8 million at September 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively. The Company has
established a trust to which the Company is contributing cash to purchase variable life insurance policies insuring each participant. During fiscal 2002 and 2001, the Company contributed
$1.3 million and $0.7 million, respectively, to the trust for the payment of premiums on variable life policies insuring two executive officers.

Split-Dollar Life Insurance Agreements

During fiscal 1991, the Company entered into split-dollar life insurance agreements with trusts established by three former officers of the Company. Pursuant to
these agreements, the Company is entitled to the cumulative premiums it has paid on the policies less the Company's interest in policy loans and related accrued interest. No further premiums are due
on these policies. The Company's

48

---

interest in the policies was $1.1 million at September 30, 2002, which is net of $9.1 million in policy loans made to the Company bearing interest at 7.7%, and is recorded in
other assets on the balance sheet. Interest expense for the year ended September 30, 2002 was $686,000 related to these policy loans.

Long-Term Incentive Plan

The Company has a long-term incentive plan which authorizes the grant of stock options to employees and directors. The options vest over a period of
three to five years and expire ten years from the date of grant. The options are issued at an exercise price not less than the fair market value of the
Company's common stock on the date of the grant. The long-term incentive plan allows for 1,750,000 shares to be granted. The following table summarizes the changes in common stock options
in fiscal 2002, 2001 and 2000:

options been determined consistent with SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation," the

The
fair value of each option grant of $6.07, $5.96 and $5.96 is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following weighted average
assumptions for 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively: risk-free interest rates of 4.8%, 6.3% and 6.2%; expected lives of five years; expected volatility of 51.8%, 40.6% and 39.2% and expected
dividend rate of $0.20.

9. 2002 Asset Sale

In June 2002, the Company sold a manufacturing facility for net cash proceeds of $80,000 and a note receivable bearing interest at 8.0% and payable in
monthly installments with a balloon payment for the outstanding balance in June 2006. The sale resulted in a pre-tax gain of approximately $479,000, which was recorded in other
income.

10. Segment Reporting

The Company's three operating segments are business units that offer similar products through different distribution channels. The Company's wholesale segment
designs, manufactures, imports and markets casual and dress men's and women's apparel to retailers throughout North America and the United Kingdom. The Company also operates two other segments,
including the retail segment, which markets Haggar® branded products through 68 Company operated stores located in the Company's Dallas headquarters and in outlet malls throughout the
United States, and a licensing segment, which generates royalty income by licensing the Company's trademarks for use by other manufacturers of specified products in specified geographic areas. The
retail and licensing segments are not material for separate disclosure, and have been combined in the results below. The Company evaluates performance and allocates resources based on segment profits.

Intercompany
sales from the wholesale segment to the retail segment are not reflected in wholesale segment net sales. Additionally, there is no profit included on sales from the
wholesale segment to the retail segment. The accounting policies of the reportable segments are the same as those described in Note 1. Segment profit (loss) is comprised of segment net income
before net interest expense and provision (benefit) for income taxes and cumulative effect of accounting change.

The
table below reflects the Company's segment results for all periods presented. The financial statements for the fiscal years ended September 30, 2001 and 2000 have been revised

The
Company does not segregate assets on a segment basis for internal management reporting and, therefore, such information is not presented.

11. Related Party Transactions

A director of the Company is a partner of a law firm that rendered various legal services for the Company during fiscal 2002, 2001 and 2000. The Company paid the
law firm approximately $606,000, $286,000 and $62,000 for legal services during fiscal 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively. There were no amounts due to such firm from the Company as of
September 30, 2002 and 2001.

12. Fair Value of Financial Instruments.

The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, other assets, accounts payable and accrued liabilities are reasonable estimates of their
fair values. The carrying amounts and

51

---

estimated fair values of other financial instruments, primarily long term debt, as of September 30, 2002 are listed in the following table:

Carrying

12,000Industrial Development Revenue Bonds


2,300


2,300Allstate notes


10,715


11,439Other debt

The
revolving credit line and Industrial Development Revenue Bonds are variable-rate instruments and, as such, the carrying amounts approximate the fair value of these
instruments. The fair value of the Allstate notes is estimated by calculating the present value of the future cash flows at a current interest rate for a similar financial instrument. The current
rates for other financial instruments did not vary materially from stated interest rates and, as such, the carrying value approximates the fair value of these instruments.

13. New Accounting Standards

In June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued SFAS No. 143, "Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations" ("SFAS
No. 143.") This Standard addresses the financial accounting and reporting for obligations associated with the retirement of tangible long-lived assets and the associated asset
retirement costs. The standard applies to legal obligations associated with the retirement of long-lived assets that result from the acquisition, construction, development and/or normal
use of the asset. SFAS No. 143 requires that the fair value of a liability for an asset retirement obligation be recognized in the period in which it is incurred if a reasonable estimate of
fair value can be made. The fair value of the liability is added to the carrying amount of the associated asset and this additional carrying amount is depreciated over the life of the asset. The
liability is accreted at the end of each period through charges to operating expense. If the obligation is settled for other than the carrying amount of the liability, a gain or loss on settlement is
recognized. SFAS No. 143 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001 or the first quarter of fiscal 2003 for the Company. Management does not expect the adoption of
SFAS No. 143 to have a material impact on the Company's financial statements.

In
October 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets" ("SFAS No. 144.") This Standard provides
a single accounting model for long-lived assets to be disposed of and significantly changes the criteria that would have to be met to classify an asset as held for sale. Classification as
held for sale is an important distinction since such assets are not depreciated and are stated at the lower of fair value and carrying amount. This standard also requires expected future operating
losses from discontinued operations to be displayed in the period(s) in which losses are incurred, rather than as of the measurement date as presently required. SFAS No. 144 is effective for
fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001 or the first quarter of fiscal 2003 for the Company. Management does not expect the adoption of SFAS No. 144 to have a material impact on
the Company's financial statements.

52

---

In
June 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 146, "Accounting for Exit or Disposal Activities" ("SFAS No. 146.") SFAS No. 146 addresses significant issues regarding
the recognition, measurement, and reporting of costs that are associated with exit and disposal activities, including restructuring activities that are currently accounted for pursuant to the guidance
that the Emerging Issues Task Force ("EITF") has set forth in EITF Issue No. 94-3, "Liability Recognition for Certain Employee Termination Benefits and Other Costs to Exit an
Activity (including Certain Costs Incurred in a Restructuring)." The scope of SFAS No. 146 also includes (1) costs related to terminating a contract that is not a capital lease and
(2) certain termination benefits to employees who are involuntarily terminated. SFAS No. 146 will be effective for exit or disposal activities that are initiated after
December 31, 2002. Management is still evaluating the impact of the adoption of SFAS No. 146.
