PART I

Item 1. Business.
- ------- ---------

Jaclyn, Inc. (incorporated in the State of Delaware in 1968) and its
subsidiaries (collectively, "Jaclyn", "the Company", "we", "us", "our", or "the
Registrant") is primarily engaged in the design, manufacture, distribution and
sale of women's and children's apparel, and vinyl, leather and fabric handbags,
sport bags, backpacks, cosmetic bags, and related products (collectively,
"handbag products"). Our apparel lines are wide ranging and include women's
loungewear, sleepwear, dresses and sportswear, and lingerie, and with the recent
acquisition of Topsville, Inc. in January 2002 (discussed below) now also
includes infants' and children's clothing. The Company markets its handbag
products in a variety of popularly priced fashions and designs, with an emphasis
on casual, travel, and sport styles.

General. Styling is an important factor in the merchandising of all of
our products. The Company's staff of full- time designers studies fashion trends
in order to anticipate consumer demand. The design staff works closely with the
purchasing department to determine concepts and fabrics for its apparel products
as well as the styling and material components for its handbag products. The
design staff also works with the production and engineering staffs to determine
the costs of production and the technical problems involved in producing a new
style. We change most of our designs from season to season.

Finished merchandise is received at independently owned outside
warehouses located in New Jersey, Florida, California and Indiana, as well as
Company-owned and leased facilities. From these locations, products are shipped
under different selling names to customers all over the country. Products for
the apparel catalogue business are also shipped from outside contractor
locations directly to the customer. In addition, certain handbag products
manufactured in the Far East are shipped directly to customers from Hong Kong.
Our handbag products are marketed primarily through general merchandise, chain
and department stores. We market our apparel lines to department stores, retail
chain stores, as well as to major mail order catalog chains and other specialty
retailers.

The Company markets its handbag products under trademarks and trade
names which it owns, including "Shane" and "Aetna," "Susan Gail," and "Robyn
Lyn". In addition, we are licensed to manufacture and market handbag products
under the names "Looney Tunes(TM)" under an agreement which expires March 30,
2004, "Crayola(TM)" under an agreement which expires December 31, 2002, and "Dr.
Seuss(TM)" under an agreement which expires December 15, 2002. The agreements
under which we marketed handbag products under the "ANNE KLEIN(TM)" and "ANNE
KLEIN 2(TM)" trademarks expired on June 30, 2002 and was not renewed. We also
are a party to a license agreement with Warner Bros. to manufacture denim
backpacks, handbags and accessories relating to the "Harry Potter(TM)" series of
books under an agreement which expires on December 31, 2003. The Company
manufactures and markets apparel under the names "Topsville", "I. Appel", "Smart
Time", and "Emerson Road", each of which the Company owns, and also manufactures
apparel items for sale as private-label merchandise. We consider all of our
licensed trademarks, trade names and other intellectual property rights to be of
significant value in the marketing of its products.


1


The Company sells throughout the United States through its own
salesmen and through independent sales representatives.

Sales of apparel items during each of the fiscal years ended June 30,
2002, 2001 and 2000 represented 60%, 54% and 42%, respectively, of consolidated
net sales. Sales of handbag products represented the remainder of our
consolidated net sales. Our sales are customarily offered on credit terms. We do
not have long-term contracts with any of our customers.

In fiscal 2002, our imports of handbag products merchandise
manufactured in the Far East accounted for approximately 40% of consolidated net
sales, compared to approximately 46% of consolidated net sales in fiscal 2001.
Imports offer us the benefit of diversification of styling and the benefit of
cost savings related to such purchases. While our operations are subject to the
usual risks associated with purchases from foreign countries, our other foreign
and domestic manufacturing sources provide us with alternative sources and
facilities. Certain apparel orders which have shorter delivery dates are
manufactured or assembled in Central America, Mexico and domestically.

Approximately 65% of the Company's consolidated net sales for fiscal
2002 were to general merchandise, chain, department stores and catalogue
retailers, with the balance consisting of sales to smaller specialty shops,
smaller retail stores and cosmetic firms. During the fiscal year ended June 30,
2002, Wal-Mart Stores, Inc., Estee Lauder, and Blair Corporation, accounted for
40% of our consolidated net sales (19%, 11% and 10% of consolidated net sales,
respectively). During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2001, four major customers
of the Company contributed approximately 55% of consolidated net sales as
follows: Blair Corporation, 17%; Estee Lauder, 15%; Coldwater Creek, 12% and
Wal-Mart Stores, Inc., 11%. The loss of any one of these customers would have a
material adverse effect on the Company's results of operations.

Purchases of handbag and apparel raw materials, primarily fabrics,
vinyl and urethane plastics, leather, frames, ornaments, trim and other
materials, and certain of the Company's finished products, are made from a
variety of sources. In most cases, the Company assists its suppliers and
contractors in the design and style of the materials it purchases. Our largest
expenditures for raw materials are for fabrics, leather, vinyl and urethane
plastics, which we purchase from several suppliers, one of which provided about
7% of our raw material needs in fiscal 2002. While the Company has no long-term
supply contracts, the raw materials it uses are available from various sources
and it anticipates no difficulty in the future in obtaining the necessary raw
materials for its operations. The Company deals with a number of sources for its
purchases of finished handbags and related products, no one of which accounted
for more than approximately 17% of the Company's total cost of goods sold. The
Company has no long-term supply contracts with its Far East or European sources
of finished handbags and related products or apparel items and is subject to the
usual risks associated therewith.

The Company offers Fall/Winter, Holiday and Spring/Summer product
lines and, in almost all instances, manufactures products to meet the specific
requirements of its customers. Our business has been somewhat seasonal in
nature. However, in the last few years, shipments have generally been influenced
by number of factors, including mid- year acquisitions which have added to net
sales in the second half of the Company's fiscal year, and general economic
conditions, which have, to some degree, impacted volume. Accordingly, we do not
believe that quarterly net sales are necessarily indicative of future trends.
Nevertheless, we anticipate that during fiscal 2003 we will have significantly
more sales volume in the first-half of the fiscal year than in the second half
of the fiscal year. Reference is made to Note L, "Unaudited Quarterly Financial
Data," of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements on page F-22 of this
Form 10-K for additional information about historical quarterly results.

At September 18, 2002, the Company had unfilled orders of
approximately $52,548,000 compared to approximately $30,724,000 at September 14,
2001. The increase in our backlog of unfilled orders is primarily attributable
to the acquisition of Topsville, Inc., offset, in part, by a decrease in backlog
relating to our Anne Klein license, which was not renewed. In the ordinary
course of business, the dollar amount of unfilled orders at a particular point
in time is affected by factors, including scheduling of the manufacture and
shipping of goods (which, in turn, may be dependent on the requirements of
customers). Accordingly, a comparison of backlog from period to period is not
necessarily meaningful and may not be indicative of future sales patterns or
shipments. The Company does, however, anticipate that the substantial increase
in unfilled orders at September 18, 2002 compared with a comparable date in
fiscal 2001, will favorably impact revenues and earnings during fiscal 2003.

The Company employed 191 persons as of June 30, 2002, of whom 125 were
on a salaried basis and the balance on an hourly basis. At June 30, 2002, 18 of
the Company's employees were members of the Four Joint Boards of New York, New
Jersey, Pennsylvania and New England, affiliated with the International Leather
Goods, Plastics and Novelty Workers Union, AFL-CIO. The Company considers its
relations with its employees to be satisfactory.

The Company competes with numerous domestic and foreign manufacturers
of handbags and apparel, very few of which are believed to each account for as
much as 1% of industry sales. We believe our sales of apparel items and handbag
products are not significant in light of total apparel industry sales. Our
business is dependent, among other things, on our ability to anticipate and
respond to changing consumer preferences, to remain competitive in price, style
and quality, and to meet our customers' various production and delivery
requirements. While some of the Company's competitors may be larger or may have
greater resources than ours, we believe that our size and financial position
will allow us to continue to respond to changes in consumer demand and remain
competitive.

On January 10, 2002, the Company acquired 100% of the stock of
Topsville, Inc., a New York City- based manufacturer and distributor of private
label infants' and children's clothing. The aggregate purchase price for the
acquisition was $3,245,702, of which $1,745,702 was paid at the closing of the
transaction and the remainder of which is being paid over a fifteen-month period
from closing from working capital and/or our bank line of credit.

On January 19, 2001, the Company acquired the business and certain
assets of I. Appel Corporation, which manufactures and distributes robes,
dusters and loungewear for distribution to department stores. The aggregate
purchase price for the acquisition was approximately $700,000 for goodwill,
certain tangible assets and included $100,000 for acquisition costs.
Approximately $350,000 was paid at closing with the remainder payable in
quarterly installments through October 2002. The remaining installments are
being paid from working capital and/or our bank line of credit.

Subsequent to June 30, 2002, the Company consummated a mortgage loan
with a bank lender in the amount of $3,250,000. The financing is secured by a
mortgage of the Company's West New York, New Jersey headquarters and warehouse
facility (see the information below under the caption "Item 2. Properties"
below). The loan bears interest at a fixed rate of 7% per annum. The financing
has a fifteen-year term, but is callable by the bank lender at any time after
September 1, 2007 and may be prepaid by the Company, along with a prepayment
fee, from time to time during the term of the financing. The proceeds of the
financing are being used for general working capital purposes.

Item 2. Properties.
- ------- -----------

The Company's executive offices and one of its warehouse facilities,
containing 140,000 square feet, is located in West New York, New Jersey. The
Company currently leases approximately 70,000 square feet of the West New York
facilities to outside parties. The Company also leases four showroom and office
facilities in New York City totaling approximately 32,000 square feet, as well
as a warehouse in Medley, Florida for its newly acquired Topsville operations.
Reference is made to Note D, "Commitments and Contingencies," of the Notes to
Consolidated Financial Statements on page F-12 of this Form 10-K for additional
information about the Company's commitments under the terms of non-cancelable
leases.

Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
- ------- Results of Operations.
----------------------

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires the appropriate application of
accounting policies, many of which require the Company to make estimates and
assumptions about future events and their impact on amounts reported in the
financial statements and related notes. Since future events and their impact
cannot be determined with certainty, the actual results will inevitably differ
from its estimates. Such differences could be material to the consolidated
financial statements.

The Company believes that application of accounting policies, and the
estimates inherently required by the policies, are reasonable. These accounting
policies and estimates are periodically reevaluated, and adjustments are made
when facts and circumstances dictate a change. Historically, the Company has
found the application of accounting policies to be appropriate, and actual
results have not differed materially from those determined using necessary
estimates.

The Company's accounting policies are more fully described in Note A
to the consolidated financial statements. The Company has identified certain
critical accounting policies that are described below.

Merchandise inventory. The Company's merchandise inventory is carried
at the lower of cost on a first-in, first-out basis, or market. The Company
writes down its inventory for estimated obsolescence or unmarketable inventory
equal to the difference between the cost of inventory and the estimated market
value based upon assumptions about future demand and market conditions. If
actual market conditions are less favorable than those projected by management,
additional inventory write-downs may be required.

Allowance for doubtful accounts. The Company maintains allowances for
doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from the inability of its
customers to make required payments. If the financial condition of its customers
were to deteriorate, resulting in an impairment of their ability to make
payments, additional allowances may be required.

Market development accruals. The Company estimates reductions to
revenue for customer programs and incentive offerings including special pricing
agreements, price protection, promotions and other volume-based incentives. If
market conditions were to decline, the Company may take actions to increase
customer incentive offerings possibly resulting in an incremental reduction of
revenue at the time the incentive is offered.

Long-lived assets, excluding goodwill. In evaluating the fair value
and future benefits of long-lived assets, the Company performs an analysis of
the anticipated undiscounted future net cash flows of the related long-lived
assets. If the carrying value of the related asset exceeds the undiscounted cash
flows, the Company reduces the carrying value to its fair value.

Goodwill. Goodwill is continually reviewed for impairment. The
carrying value of goodwill would be impaired if the estimate of future
discounted cash flows is less than carrying value. If goodwill is impaired, the
loss is measured using estimated fair value. To the extent these future
projections or our strategies change, the conclusion regarding impairment may
differ from the current estimates.

The Company believes at this time that the long-lived asset's carrying
values and useful lives continues to be appropriate. Future adverse changes in
market conditions or poor operating results of underlying investments could
result in an inability to recover the carrying value of the investments that may
not be reflected in an investment's current carrying value, thereby possibly
requiring an impairment charge in the future.

Deferred taxes. Should the Company determine that it would not be able
to realize all or part of its net deferred tax asset in the future, an
adjustment to the deferred tax asset would be charged to income in the period
such determination was made.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The net increase in cash and cash equivalents for the fiscal year
ended June 30, 2002, of $29,000 was the result of of funds used in operating
activities totaling $3,569,000 and funds used in investing activities of
$2,242,000, offset by funds provided by financing activities totaling
$5,840,000. Funds used in operating activities were primarily due to an increase
in accounts payable and other current liabilities of $2,853,000 reflecting, for
the most part, payments of inventory purchases for the apparel businesses
(including the acquisition of Topsville, Inc, a manufacturer of infants' and
children's clothing), and a $5,837,000 increase in accounts receivable
(attributable to a higher level of shipping in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2002
compared to the comparable quarter in fiscal 2001). In addition, the $833,000
increase in prepaid expenses was mostly attributable to required funding of the
Company's pension plan. Cash used in investing activities totaling $2,242,000,
was mostly due to the acquisition of Topsville, Inc. Funds provided by financing
activities were derived primarily from an increase in the amount of $6,540,000
in notes payable under the existing credit facility, offset by installment
payments for the Topsville and the I. Appel acquisitions.

During fiscal 2002, the Company amended its bank line of credit to
accommodate the acquisition of Topsville, Inc. The credit facility, which
extends through December 1, 2002, provides the Company with short-term loans,
letters of credit and bankers acceptances amounting to $24,000,000 with
inventory and accounts receivable pledged to the bank as collateral. On June 30,
2002, the Company could borrow up to $13,000,000 in short-term loans. Subsequent
to June 30, 2002, the Company amended its bank agreement to borrow up to
$17,000,000 in short-term loans. In addition, the Company entered into a
$3,250,000, 7% mortgage loan agreement with another bank for general working
capital needs. These transactions were done primarily for the purpose of
financing the additional sales volume relative to the Topsville acquisition. The
Company is required to maintain a minimum ratio of cash and accounts receivable
to bank borrowing of 1.25 to 1, as well as a minimum tangible net worth of
$11,500,000. The Company believes that funds provided by operations, existing
working capital, the Company's amended bank line of credit (which we expect will
be renewed) and mortgage financing of its West New York, New Jersey corporate
headquarters facility, will be sufficient to meet foreseeable working capital
needs. Reference is made to Note E "Credit Facilities," of the Notes to
Consolidated Financial Statements on page F-10 of this Form 10-K for additional
information about the Company's credit lines.

There were no material commitments for capital expenditures at June
30, 2002.

The net decrease in cash and cash equivalents for the fiscal year
ended June 30, 2001, of $249,000 was the result of an excess of funds used in
operating activities totaling $1,934,000, offset by funds provided by financing
activities totaling $846,000 and funds provided by investing activities of
$839,000. Funds used in operating activities were primarily due to a decrease in
accounts payable and other current liabilities of $2,115,000 reflecting, for the
most part, payments of inventory purchases for the apparel businesses, as well
as an increase in inventory of $865,000 (principally reflecting finished goods
inventory relating to the recently acquired robe and duster business discussed
below), offset by a $746,000 decrease in accounts receivable (attributable to a
lower level of shipping in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2001 compared to the
comparable quarter in fiscal 2000). Cash provided by investing activities
totaling $839,000 resulted mainly from proceeds from the sales of securities
available for sale totaling $2,443,000, offset by purchases during the fiscal
year of securities available for sale of $816,000. The Company sold its
securities available for sale during fiscal 2001 in order to better utilize
these investment funds for working capital needs. The proceeds from the sales of
securities available for sale were further offset by the acquisition of certain
assets of the I. Appel Corporation (a company engaged in the manufacture and
distribution and sale of women's robes, dusters and other apparel) totaling
$400,000. Funds provided by financing activities were derived primarily from an
increase in notes payable to the Company's bank under the existing credit
facility of $1,285,000 offset by repurchases of the Company's stock totaling
$389,000.

As of June 30, 2002, 2001 and 2000, working capital was $9,747,000,
$12,477,000, and $14,597,000, respectively. The ratio of current assets to
current liabilities for those same periods was 1.5 to 1, 2.6 to 1, and 2.7 to 1,
respectively. The decrease in the current ratio of current assets to current
liabilities in fiscal 2002 compared to fiscal 2001 is primarily attributable to
funds used in connection with the Topsville acquisition and additional borrowing
required to finance the acquisition. The Company's cash, cash equivalents and
marketable securities totaled $95,000, $66,000, and $1,947,000, at June 30,
2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively.

Results of Operations

2002 Compared to 2001

Net sales for fiscal 2002 totaled $81,039,000, an increase of
$1,461,000, or 1.8%, compared to the prior fiscal year. Sales by category were
as follows:

Net sales for the Apparel category in fiscal 2002 were $49,003,000, an
increase of $6,655,000, or 15.7%, compared to $42,348,000 in 2001. The sales
increase for this category was primarily due to additional net sales from the
acquisition of Topsville, Inc. coupled with increases in revenue from existing
customers for our women's sleepwear business, offset by much lower volume with
our catalogue customers.

Net sales for the Handbag category in fiscal 2002 were $32,028,000, or
14% lower than the prior fiscal year's total of $37,222,000. The sales decrease
was attributable to lower demand for both the Company's children's and premium
handbag divisions due to the soft economic climate during fiscal 2002.

Gross margin increased to 23.4% in 2002 from 22.7% in 2001. The gross
margin increase in 2002 was due to higher margins in the Apparel category,
reflecting better results for our Women's sleepwear business. Gross margins by
category were as follows:

Gross margin for the Apparel category in 2002 increased to 21.9% in
2002 from 19.0% in 2001. The increase was attributable to higher margins in the
Company's women's sleepwear business as well as better margins from the
Topsville acquisition which offset otherwise lower catalogue margins.

Overall gross margin for the Handbags category in 2002 remained at
26.9% in 2002 compared to 2001. While the overall percentage was unchanged, we
experienced lower margins in our children's handbag and better handbag business
offset by better margins in our premium business.

Shipping, selling and administrative expenses increased to 24.5%, up
2.2% from fiscal 2001, due to the addition of Topsville's related shipping,
selling and administrative costs and includes a $900,000 non-cash


10


charge related to amortization of an open order backlog in connection with the
Topsville acquisition, in accordance with FAS 141. Without the $900,000 charge,
shipping, selling and administrative expenses increased to 23.4% of net sales,
or a 1.1% increase from fiscal 2001. This increase reflects the increased
shipping, selling and administrative costs associated with the Topsville
operations.

Interest expense increased to $293,000 from $234,000 last fiscal year,
primarily the result of much higher average borrowing needed to finance the
acquisition of Topsville, Inc. and the related increased volume of business in
fiscal 2002 compared to fiscal 2001.

Interest income decreased by $106,000 due to the elimination of
securities available for sale which were sold during fiscal 2001 in order to
utilize such investment funds for current working capital purposes.

Other income was lower by $23,000 for the fiscal year 2002 compared to
the prior fiscal year.

The loss before income taxes for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2002
compared to earnings in the prior year was primarily due to accounting for the
acquisition of Topsville, Inc. Excluding an after-tax, non-cash charge of
$825,000, the company had earnings of $86,000 compared to $100,000 in the prior
fiscal year.

2001 Compared to 2000

Net sales for fiscal 2001 totaled $79,570,000, up $7,492,000 or 10.4%
from the prior fiscal year. Sales by category were as follows:

Net sales for the Apparel category in fiscal 2001 were $42,348,000, an
increase of $12,321,000, or 41% compared to $30,027,000 in 2000. The sales
increase for this category was primarily due to increases in revenue from
existing customers, mostly during the first half of the Company's fiscal year,
as well as revenues resulting from the acquisition of certain assets of the I.
Appel Corporation, discussed above.

Net sales for the Handbags category in fiscal 2001 were $37,222,000,
or 11.5% lower than the prior fiscal year's total of $42,051,000. The sales
decrease was mostly attributable to the Company's children's and better handbag
divisions due to the soft economic climate during the third and fourth quarters
of fiscal 2001.

Gross margin decreased to 22.6% in 2001 from 24.8% in 2000. The gross
margin decrease in 2001 was due to lower margins in both the Apparel and
Handbags categories, reflecting more recently, the difficult retail and economic
environment. Gross margins by category were as follows:

Gross margin for the Apparel category in 2001 decreased to 19.0% in
2001 from 19.9% in 2000. The decrease was attributable to lower margins in the
Company's women's apparel business due to an inability to pass along cost
increases in a difficult retail market.

Gross margin for the Handbags category in 2001 decreased to 26.9% in
2001 from 28.4% in 2000. This decrease was mainly due to lower margins in our
premium and better handbag businesses in the current period as compared to the
prior fiscal year because of a greater level of off-price sales in fiscal 2001
compared to the prior fiscal year.

Shipping, selling and administrative expenses increased slightly due
to volume related expenses in fiscal 2001 compared to the prior fiscal year.
However, as a percentage of net sales, shipping, selling and administrative
expenses declined to 22.3% from 24.4% in fiscal 2000, due to the relatively
lower level of fixed expenses compared to higher net sales.

Interest expense increased to $234,000 from $100,000 last fiscal year,
primarily the result of higher average borrowing needed to finance the increased
volume of business in the current fiscal year at a higher average interest rate
compared to fiscal 2000.


11


Interest income decreased by $27,000 due to a lower level of
securities available for sale which were sold during fiscal 2001 in order to
utilize such investment funds for current working capital purposes.

Other income was lower by $13,000 for the fiscal year 2001 compared to
the prior fiscal year.

The decrease in earnings before income taxes for the fiscal year ended
June 30, 2001 compared to the prior year was primarily due to a 2.2% decrease in
gross profit, as well as higher interest expense and lower interest income, as
discussed above.


New Accounting Pronouncements

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

In June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued
two new pronouncements: Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No.
141, Business Combinations, and SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible
Assets.

SFAS No. 141 addresses financial accounting and reporting for business
combinations and supersedes APB No. 16 "Business Combinations" and FASB
Statement No. 38, "Accounting for Preacquisition Contingencies of Purchased
Enterprises". All business combinations that fall within the scope of this
Statement are to be accounted for using one method, the purchase method. SFAS
141 is effective as follows: a) use of the pooling-of-interest method is
prohibited for business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001 (that is, the
date of the acquisition is July 2001 or later) and b) the provisions of SFAS 141
also apply to all business combinations accounted for by the purchase method
that are completed after June 30, 2001. See Note I to Notes to Consolidated
Financial Statements for the impact on the Consolidated Financial Statements.

SFAS No.142 addresses financial accounting and reporting for acquired
goodwill and other intangible assets and supersedes APB No.17, "Intangible
Assets". On July 1, 2001, we adopted SFAS No. 142, "Goodwill and Other
Intangible Assets." As a result, we no longer amortize goodwill, but
periodically we evaluate goodwill for recoverability. The Company also evaluates
goodwill whenever events and changes in circumstance suggest that the carrying
amount may not be recoverable from its estimated future cash flows. See Note I
to Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for the impact on the Consolidated
Financial Statements.

Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted

In August 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 143, "Accounting for Asset
Retirement Obligations." SFAS No. 143 requires entities to record the fair value
of a liability for an asset retirement obligation in the period in which it is
incurred. The provisions of SFAS No. 143 are effective for fiscal years
beginning after June 15, 2002. The Company will adopt SFAS No. 143 beginning in
the first fiscal quarter of fiscal 2003. The Company believes that the adoption
of SFAS No. 143 will not have a material impact on its results of operations and
financial position.

In October 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 144, "Accounting for the
Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets." SFAS No. 144 supersedes SFAS No.
121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived
Assets to Be Disposed Of." The primary objectives of SFAS No. 144


12


were to develop one accounting model based on the framework established in SFAS
No. 121, and to address significant implementation issues. The provisions of
SFAS No. 144 are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001.
The Company will adopt SFAS No. 144 in the first fiscal quarter of fiscal 2003.
The Company believes that the adoption of SFAS No. 144 will not have a material
impact on our results of operations and financial position.

In April 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 145, "Rescission of FASB
Statements No. 4, 44, and 64, Amendment of FASB Statement No. 13, and Technical
Corrections" ("SFAS 145"). SFAS 145 rescinds the provisions of SFAS No. 4 that
requires companies to classify certain gains and losses from debt
extinguishments as extraordinary items, eliminates the provisions of SFAS No. 44
regarding the Motor Carrier Act of 1980 and amends the provisions of SFAS No. 13
to require that certain lease modifications be treated as sale leaseback
transactions. The provisions of SFAS No. 145 related to the classification of
debt extinguishment is effective for fiscal years beginning after May 15, 2002.
The adoption of SFAS No. 145 is not expected to have a material impact on the
Company's results of operations and financial position.

In June 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 146, "Accounting for Costs
Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities." SFAS No. 146 addresses financial
accounting and reporting for costs associated with exit or disposal activities
and nullifies Emerging Issues Task Force ("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)." SFAS No. 146
requires that a liability for a cost associated with an exit or disposal
activity be recognized when the liability is incurred. This statement also
established that fair value is the objective for initial measurement of the
liability. The provisions of SFAS No. 146 are effective for exit or disposal
activities that are initiated after December 31, 2002. The Company is currently
evaluating the impact of SFAS No. 146 on its consolidated financial statements.

Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
- -------- -----------------------------------------------------------

The Company, in the normal course of doing business, is exposed to
interest rate change market risk. Since our borrowing patterns are cyclical, the
Company is not dependent on borrowing throughout the year. Never-the-less, a
sudden increase in interest rates (which under the line of credit is at the
prime rate or lower) may, especially during peak borrowing, potentially have a
significant negative impact on the Company's results of operations. We have not
used, and currently do not anticipate using, any derivative financial
instruments. In addition, we have not been materially impacted by fluctuations
in foreign currency exchange rates as substantially all of our business is
transacted in, and is expected to continue to be transacted in, U.S.
dollar-based currencies.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT


To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of
Jaclyn, Inc.
West New York, New Jersey


We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Jaclyn,
Inc. and subsidiaries as of June 30, 2002 and 2001, and the related consolidated
statements of operations, stockholders' equity and cash flows for each of the
three fiscal years in the period ended June 30, 2002. Our audits also included
the consolidated financial statement schedule of Jaclyn, Inc. and subsidiaries
listed in item 15(a). These financial statements and financial statement
schedule are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility
is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial statement
schedule based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally
accepted in the United States of America. 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, such consolidated financial statements present fairly,
in all material respects, the financial position of Jaclyn, Inc. and
subsidiaries as of June 30, 2002 and 2001, and the results of their operations
and their cash flows for each of the three fiscal years ended June 30, 2002, in
conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of
America. Also, in our opinion, such financial statement schedule, when
considered in relation to the basic consolidated financial statements taken as a
whole, presents fairly in all material respects, the information set forth
therein.

As discussed in Note I to the consolidated financial statements, the
Company changed its method of accounting for goodwill amortization in fiscal
2002.

JACLYN, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

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

NOTE A - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation

Jaclyn, Inc. and its subsidiaries (the "Company") are engaged in the design,
manufacture, marketing and sale of apparel, handbags accessories and related
products. The Company sells its products to retailers, including department and
specialty stores, national chains, major discounters and mass volume retailers,
throughout the United States.

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and
all of its wholly- owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany transactions
and balances have been eliminated.

Use of Estimates

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, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the
reporting period. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America also
requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the
disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements. Significant estimates include inventory provision, sales return,
allowance for doubtful accounts, allowance for sales discounts and lives of
long-lived assets. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash in excess of daily requirements is invested in certificates of deposits and
money market funds with original maturities of three months or less. Such
investments are presented as cash equivalents.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The carrying amount of cash, accounts receivable, accounts and notes payable and
accrued expenses are assumed to approximate fair value due to their short
maturities. The carrying value of the bank loan, which bears interest at a
variable rate, approximates fair value.

Inventories

Inventory is carried at the lower of cost on a first-in, first-out basis, or
market. Management writes down inventory for estimated obsolescence or
unmarketable inventory equal to the difference between the cost of inventory and
the estimated market value based upon assumptions about future demand and market
conditions.

F-7


Allowances for Doubtful Accounts/Sales Discounts

The Company maintains allowances for doubtful accounts for estimated losses
resulting from the inability of its customers to make required payments. The
Company also estimates expenses for customer discounts, programs and incentive
offerings.

Property, Plant and Equipment

Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost. The Company provides for
depreciation and amortization on the straight-line method over the following
estimated useful lives:

Buildings 25 to 40 years
Machinery and equipment 5 years
Furniture and fixtures 5 years
Leasehold improvements Lesser of life of the asset or life of the lease
Automobiles and trucks 3 to 5 years


Intangible Assets

Trademarks, included in other assets, are being amortized on a straight-line
basis over periods not exceeding 10 years. Goodwill is the excess of purchase
price over fair value of the net assets acquired in connection with
acquisitions. For a further explanation of the Company's accounting for
goodwill, see Note I, Acquisitions.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets, excluding goodwill

The Company follows the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards ("SFAS") No. 121, "Accounting for Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and
for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed of". For purposes of recognizing and
measuring impairment of long-lived assets, the Company categorizes assets of
production facilities as "Assets to Be Held and Used" and assets of production
facilities that have been closed as "Assets to be Disposed Of." The Company
evaluates assets for impairment at the lowest level of cash flows. Corporate
assets to be held and used are evaluated for impairment based on excess cash
flow after the assessment of production assets. The Company reviews assets for
impairment when changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of
long-lived assets may not be recoverable. Such changes include, but are not
limited to, the historical and projected operating performance of the business,
changes in the manner in which the asset is used, specific industry trends and
general economic conditions, or any other indication that the carrying value of
long-lived assets may not be recoverable.

If the sum of the undiscounted expected future cash flows is less than the
carrying amount of the asset, the asset is considered impaired. Impairment
losses are measured as the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset
exceeds the fair value of the asset. When fair values are not available, the
Company estimates fair value using the expected future cash flows discounted at
a rate commensurate with the risks associated with the recovery of the asset.

Stock Options

As permitted under SFAS No.123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation," the
Company has elected not to adopt the fair value based method of accounting for
its stock-based compensation plans. The Company will continue to apply the
provisions of Accounting Principles

F-8


Board ("APB") Opinion No.25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees." See
Note F.

Revenue Recognition

Revenue is recognized at the time merchandise is shipped or received by a third
party consolidator, normally the same day of the shipment. Sales returns,
discounts and allowances are recorded as a component of net sales in the period
in which the related revenue is recorded. Products are shipped directly to
customers using third party carriers. The customer takes title and assumes the
risks and rewards of ownership of the products when the merchandise leaves the
Company's warehouse or is received by a third party consolidator, as applicable.

Shipping and Handling Costs

Included in Shipping, Selling and Administrative expenses are all shipping and
handling costs incurred by the Company. Included in revenues are all amounts
billed to a customer in a sale transaction related to shipping and handling.
Shipping and handling reimbursements included in revenue amounted to
approximately $24,000, $20,000 and $81,000 for the years ended June 30, 2002,
2001, and 2000, respectively.

Segment Reporting

The Company operates in a single operating segment - the manufacture of apparel,
women's handbags and related accessories. Revenues from customers are derived
from merchandise sales. The Company's merchandise sales mix by product category
for the last three years was as follows:

Year ended June 30,

Product Category 2002 2001 2000
- ---------------- ---- ---- ----
Apparel 60% 54% 42%
Handbags 40% 46% 58%
------------ ------------- --------------
100% 100% 100%
------------ ------------- --------------

During the years ended June 30, 2002, 2001 and 2000, sales revenues derived from
one customer were 19%, 17% and 16%, respectively. Sales to a second customer
were 11%, 15% and 10%, and to a third customer were 10%, 12% and 10%,
respectively. The loss of any one of these customers would have a material
adverse effect on the Company's operations.

The Company relies on suppliers to purchase a variety of raw materials. The
Company had one supplier who in the aggregate constituted 7% of the Company's
purchases for the year ended June 30, 2002. The loss of this supplier would not
have a material adverse effect on the Company's operations since there are
alternative suppliers available.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

In June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued two new
pronouncements: SFAS No. 141, "Business Combinations", and SFAS No. 142,
"Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets".

SFAS No. 141 addresses financial accounting and reporting for business
combinations and supersedes APB No. 16 "Business Combinations" and FASB
Statement No. 38, "Accounting for Preacquisition Contingencies of Purchased
Enterprises". All business combinations in the scope of

F-9



this Statement are to be accounted for using one method, the purchase method.
SFAS 141 is effective as follows: a) use of the pooling-of-interest method is
prohibited for business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001 (that is, the
date of the acquisition is July 2001 or later) and b) the provisions of SFAS 141
also apply to all business combinations accounted for by the purchase method
that are completed after June 30, 2001. See Note I for the impact on the
Consolidated Financial Statements.

SFAS No.142 addresses financial accounting and reporting for acquired goodwill
and other intangible assets and supersedes APB No.17, "Intangible Assets". On
July 1, 2001, we adopted SFAS No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets."
As a result, we no longer amortize goodwill, but generally we evaluate goodwill
for recoverability. The Company also evaluates goodwill whenever events and
changes in circumstance suggest that the carrying amount may not be recoverable
from its estimated future cash flows. See Note I for the impact on the
Consolidated Financial Statements.

In April 2001, the FASB's Emerging Issues Task Force ("EITF") reached a
consensus on Issue No. 00-25, "Vendor Income Statement Characteristics of
Consideration Paid to a Reseller of the Vendor's Products" ("EITF No. 00-25").
In November 2001, EITF No. 00-25 was codified in EITF Issue No. 01-09,
"Accounting for Consideration Given by a Vendor to a Customer (Including a
Reseller of the Vendor's Products)." EITF No. 01-09 concluded that consideration
from a vendor to a reseller of the vendor's products is presumed to be a
reduction of the selling prices of the vendor's products and, therefore, should
be characterized as a reduction of revenue when recognized in the vendor's
income statement. That presumption is overcome and the consideration
characterized as a cost incurred if a benefit is or will be received from the
recipient of the consideration if certain conditions are met. The Company
adopted this pronouncement in our fourth quarter in the fiscal year ended June
30, 2002 and there was no impact on our consolidated financial statements.

Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted

In August 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 143, "Accounting for Asset Retirement
Obligations." SFAS No. 143 requires entities to record the fair value of a
liability for an asset retirement obligation in the period in which it is
incurred. The provisions of SFAS No. 143 are effective for fiscal years
beginning after June 15, 2002. The Company will adopt SFAS No. 143 beginning in
the first fiscal quarter of fiscal 2003. The Company believes that the adoption
of SFAS No. 143 will not have a material impact on our financial position.

In October 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or
Disposal of Long-Lived Assets." SFAS No. 144 supersedes SFAS No. 121,
"Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to
Be Disposed Of ." The primary objectives of SFAS No. 144 were to develop one
accounting model based on the framework established in SFAS No. 121, and to
address significant implementation issues. The provisions of SFAS No. 144 are
effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001. The Company will
adopt SFAS No. 144 in the first fiscal quarter of fiscal 2003. The Company
believes that the adoption of SFAS No. 144 will not have a material impact on
our financial position.

In April 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 145, "Rescission of FASB Statements No.
4, 44, and 64, Amendment of FASB Statement No. 13, and Technical Corrections"
("SFAS 145"). SFAS 145 rescinds the provisions of SFAS No. 4 that requires
companies to classify certain gains and

F-10


losses from debt extinguishments as extraordinary items, eliminates the
provisions of SFAS No. 44 regarding the Motor Carrier Act of 1980 and amends the
provisions of SFAS No. 13 to require that certain lease modifications be treated
as sale leaseback transactions. The provisions of SFAS No. 145 related to the
classification of debt extinguishment is effective for fiscal years beginning
after May 15, 2002. The adoption of SFAS No. 145 is not expected to have a
material impact on the Company's financial position.

In June 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 146, "Accounting for Costs Associated
with Exit or Disposal Activities." SFAS No. 146 addresses financial accounting
and reporting for costs associated with exit or disposal activities and
nullifies Emerging Issues Task Force ("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)." SFAS No. 146
requires that a liability for a cost associated with an exit or disposal
activity be recognized when the liability is incurred. This statement also
established that fair value is the objective for initial measurement of the
liability. The provisions of SFAS No. 146 are effective for exit or disposal
activities that are initiated after December 31, 2002. The Company is currently
evaluating the impact of SFAS No. 146 on its consolidated financial statements.

expected to materially affect the Company's financial position, cash flows or
results of operations.

NOTE E - CREDIT FACILITIES

During fiscal 2002 the Company amended its bank line of credit to accommodate
the recently announced acquisition of Topsville, Inc. The credit facility which
extends through December 2, 2002, now provides for short-term loans, letters of
credit and bankers acceptances amounting to $24,000,000. The Company can borrow
up to $13,000,000 with the Company's inventory and accounts receivable pledged
to the bank as collateral, provided it maintains a minimum ratio of cash and
accounts receivable to bank borrowing of 1.25 to 1, and a minimum tangible net
worth of $11,500,000. Borrowing on the short-term line of credit was $9,095,000
and $2,555,000 as of June 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively. At June 30, 2002 and
2001, the Company was contingently obligated on open letters of credit for
approximately $8,907,000 and $4,390,000. There was no borrowing on the banker's
acceptance line as of June 30, 2002 and 2001. Borrowing during the year was at
the bank's prime rate or below, at the option of the Company. The bank's prime
rate at June 30, 2002 was 4.75%. During fiscal 2002, the average amount
outstanding under the short- term line was $6,235,000 with a weighted average
interest rate of 4.75%. During 2001, the average amount outstanding under the
short-term line was $2,610,000 with a weighted average interest rate of 9.38%.
The maximum amount outstanding during fiscal 2002 and fiscal 2001 was
$10,000,000 and $6,900,000, respectively.

NOTE F - STOCK OPTIONS

The Company has a Stock Option Plan (the "Plan") permitting the granting of
incentive stock options and non-qualified stock options to purchase up to
300,000 shares of common stock. Under the Plan, the option price cannot be less
than the fair market value of the stock as of the date of the granting of the
option and 110% of the fair market value for certain management employees.
Options, which may be granted to November 2010, are exercisable as determined by
the Board of Directors.

The Company had a 1990 Incentive Stock Option Plan (the "1990 Plan") permitting
the granting of options to purchase up to 500,000 shares of common stock. Under
the 1990 Plan, the option price

F-13


could not be less than the fair market value of the stock as of the date of the
granting of the option and 110% of the fair market value for certain management
employees. The 1990 plan covering these 500,000 shares expired October 2000.

As permitted under SFAS 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation" the
Company has elected not to adopt the fair value based method of accounting for
its stock based compensation. The Company will continue to apply the provisions
of Accounting Principles Board ("APB") Opinion No. 25 "Accounting for Stock
Issued to Employees." If compensation cost for the Company's stock option plans
had been determined in accordance with the fair value method prescribed by SFAS
No. 123, the Company's net (loss) earnings would have been $(803,000), $61,000
and $236,000 for 2002, 2001, and 2000, or $(.31), $.02 and $.09 per diluted
share, respectively. This pro forma information may not be representative of the
amounts to be expected in future years.

The fair value of each option grant is estimated on the date of each grant using
the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The following weighted average
assumptions were used for grants in 2001 and 2000: risk-free interest rate of
4.2% and 6.15%, expected life of 10 years; expected volatility of 177%; and
28.85%; dividend yield of 0%. The fair values generated by the Black-Scholes
model may not be indicative of the future benefit, if any, that may be received
by the option holder.

NOTE G - PREFERRED STOCK

The Board of Directors of the Company has authority (without action by the
stockholders) to issue the authorized and unissued preferred stock in one or
more series and, within certain limitations, to determine the voting rights,
preference as to dividends and in liquidation, conversion and other rights of
each such series. No shares of preferred stock have been issued.

Assuming the acquisition was acquired on July 1, 1999, the pro forma results
would have been as follows (in thousands, except per share amounts) (unaudited):

Year Ended June 30,

2002 2001 1999
---- ---- ----

Total revenues $ 111,474 $ 104,940 $ 96,121

Net income (loss) $ 385 $ 383 $ (172)

Basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share $ .15 $ .14 $ (.06)


The Company recorded a pre-tax, non-cash amortization charge to earnings of
$1,289,000 ($389,000 to cost of goods sold and $900,000 to amortization expense
within selling and administrative expenses) for the year ended June 30, 2002.
These charges primarily represent, the allocation of a portion of the purchase
price to fair value the inventory and to assign a value to those open orders
(backlog) purchased from Topsville, Inc. which have been shipped from the date
of acquisition to June 30, 2002. The remaining $79,000 of backlog allocated to
open orders acquired with the acquisition will be charged to earnings during the
first quarter of fiscal year 2003.

The changes in the carrying amount of goodwill during the year ended June 30,
2002, is as follows:

Balance as of June 30, 2001 $ 1,768,000

Goodwill acquired during period 1,562,000
-----------
Balance as of June 30, 2002 $ 3,330,000
===========

Other intangibles totaling $174,000, included in "Other Assets", consist of
amounts allocated to tradenames, patents and backlog relating to the acquisition
of Topsville, Inc. The Company will incur $89,000 of amortization expense in
2003. Additional amortization expense of $10,000 will be incurred through 2011.

On January 19, 2001, the Company completed the acquisition of certain assets of
I. Appel Corporation, which manufactures and distributes robes, dusters and
loungewear to department stores. The aggregate purchase price for the
acquisition was approximately $700,000 for goodwill, certain tangible fixed
assets and including $100,000 in acquisition costs. A total of $400,000 was paid
during the year ended June 30, 2001 with the remainder to be paid in quarterly
instalments through October 2002. Such amounts will be paid from current working
capital. The proforma impact of the acquisition on the Company's operations for
fiscal 2001 and fiscal 2000 was not significant.

Had the Company been accounting for its goodwill under SFAS No. 142 for all
periods presented, the Company's net (loss) earnings and earnings per share
would have been as follows (in thousands, except per share amounts):

The Company maintains a non-contributory Employee Stock Ownership Plan (the
"ESOP") and Trust, for its employees who are not covered by a collective
bargaining agreement. Contributions to the ESOP are at the discretion of the
Company's Board of Directors. There was no ESOP expense for the years ended June
30, 2002, 2001 and 2000.

Vesting occurs after five years of service. However, if the ESOP is deemed
"top-heavy", vesting will occur at the rate of 20% per year after the completion
of the second year of service.

The Company has a 401-K savings plan for the benefit of its Topsville, Inc.
employees, which existed prior to the Company's acquisition of Topsville. No

NOTE K - NET EARNINGS PER SHARE

The Company's calculation of Basic and Diluted Net Earnings (Loss) Per Share are
as follows (in thousands, except per share amounts) :



Year Ended June 30,

2002 2001 2000

Basic Net (Loss) Earnings Per Share:
Net (Loss) Earnings $ (739) $ 100 $ 260
Basic Weighted Average Shares Outstanding 2,561 2,610 2,696
------------ ------------ ------------
Basic Net (Loss) Earnings Per Common Share $ (.29) $ .04 $ .10
------------ ------------ ------------

Diluted Net Earnings (Loss) Per Share:
Net (Loss) Earnings $ (739) $ 100 $ 260
------------ ------------ ------------
Basic Weighted Average Shares Outstanding 2,561 2,610 2,696
Add: Dilutive Options (a) 34 14
------------ ------------ ------------
Diluted Weighted Average Shares Outstanding 2,561 2,644 2,710
Diluted Net (Loss) Earnings Per Common Share $ (.29) $ .04 $ .10
------------ ------------ ------------


(a): Options are not considered part of the diluted weighted average share
calculation where there is a loss for the period, since they would be
anti-dilutive.

Options to purchase 344,000 and 208,000 common shares were outstanding as of
June 30, 2001 and 2000 respectively, but were not included in the computation of
diluted earnings per share because the exercise price of the options exceeded
the average market price and would have been anti-dilutive.

NOTE L - SUBSEQUENT EVENT

On August 14, 2002 the Company borrowed $3,250,000 under a fifteen-year mortgage
obtained from a bank and secured by a building owned by the Company, with a book
value of $331,000. However, the mortgage is renewable at the option of both the
Company and the bank after each of the first two five-year periods. At the time
of each renewal a new interest rate, currently fixed at 7%, will be established
based on the then prevailing rates. The mortgage proceeds are being used for
general working capital purposes.
