Forward-Looking Statements
--------------------------

This Form 10-K contains certain forward-looking statements concerning,
among other things, the Company's anticipated results, and future plans and
objectives that are or may be deemed to be "forward-looking statements." The
Company's ability to do this has been fostered by the Private Securities
Litigation Reform Act of 1995 which provides a "safe harbor" for forward-looking
statements to encourage companies to provide prospective information so long as
those statements are accompanied by meaningful cautionary statements identifying
important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from
those discussed. The Company's forward-looking statements are subject to a
number of known and unknown risks and uncertainties that could cause the
Company's actual results, performance or achievements to differ materially from
those described or implied in the forward-looking statements, including, but not
limited to, general economic and business conditions, including the impact on
consumer spending as a result of the slower consumer economy, competition in the
accessories and apparel markets, potential changes in customer spending,
acceptance of our product offerings and designs, a highly promotional retail
environment, any significant variations between actual amounts and the amounts
estimated for those matters identified as our critical accounting estimates as
well as other significant accounting estimates made in the preparation of our
financial statements, and the impact of the hostilities in the Middle East and
the possibility of hostilities in other geographic areas as well as other
geopolitical concerns. Additional uncertainty exists for the potential negative
impact that a recurrence of Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS) may have on
our business as it relates to our production in the Far East and other foreign
countries in which we source our products. In light of the uncertainty inherent
in our forward-looking statements, you should not consider their inclusion to be
a representation that such forward-looking matters will be achieved. The Company
assumes no obligation for updating any such forward-looking statements to
reflect actual results, changes in assumptions or changes in other factors
affecting such forward-looking statements.


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, as well as 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, retail
chain stores and department stores. We market our apparel lines to department
stores, retail chain stores, as well as to major mail order catalogs and other
specialty retailers. The Company sells throughout the United States using both
its own salesmen and independent sales representatives.

1


The Company manufactures and markets apparel under the trade names
"Topsville", "I. Appel", "Smart Time", and "Emerson Road", each of which the
Company owns. We also manufacture apparel items for sale as private-label
merchandise. In addition, we are licensed to manufacture and market apparel
products under the names "Jordache(TM)" under an agreement which expires
December 31, 2005, "Charles Goodnight(TM)" and Chuckie Goodnight(TM)" under an
agreement which expires May 31, 2006, and "Vanity Fair(TM)" under an agreement
expiring December 31, 2006. 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 name "Looney Tunes(TM)" under an agreement which
expires March 30, 2004, and certain handbag products under a second agreement,
which expires on December 31, 2004, relating to a movie to be released entitled
"Looney Tunes Back in Action." 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. Both the "Crayola(TM)" agreement which expired December 31,
2002, and "Dr. Seuss(TM)" agreement which expired December 15, 2002, were not
renewed. Similarly, 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 were not renewed. We consider our owned and licensed trademarks and
trade names, as well as our other, related intellectual property rights, to be
of significant value in the marketing of our products.

Sales of apparel items during each of the fiscal years ended June 30,
2003, 2002 and 2001 represented 78%, 60%, and 54%, 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 2003, our imports of apparel and handbag products accounted
for approximately 92% of consolidated net sales, compared to approximately 90%
of consolidated net sales in fiscal 2002 and 85% in fiscal 2001. Generally,
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.

Approximately 68% of the Company's consolidated net sales for fiscal
2003 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,
2003, Wal-Mart Stores, Inc., Estee Lauder, and Kohl's, accounted for 56% of our
consolidated net sales (36%, 12% and 8% of consolidated net sales,
respectively). During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2002, three major customers
of the Company contributed approximately 40% of consolidated net sales as
follows: Wal-Mart Stores, Inc., 19%; Estee Lauder, 11%; and Blair Corporation,
10%. The loss of any one of these customers would have a material adverse effect
on the Company's results of operations.

Purchases of apparel and handbag 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
44% of our raw material needs in fiscal 2003. 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 apparel, handbags and related products, no one of which
accounted for more than approximately 13% of the Company's total cost of goods
sold during fiscal 2003. 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 is somewhat seasonal in nature.
However, shipments have also been influenced by a number of factors, including
mid-year acquisitions which added to net sales in the second half of the
Company's 2002 fiscal year, and general economic conditions. Accordingly, we do
not believe that quarterly net sales are necessarily indicative of future
trends. Nevertheless, we anticipate that during fiscal 2004 we again 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 M, "Unaudited
Quarterly Financial Data," of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements on
page F-23 of this Form 10-K for additional information about historical
quarterly results.

At September 15, 2003, the Company had unfilled orders of approximately
$65,200,000 compared to approximately $52,500,000 at September 18, 2002. The
increase in our backlog of unfilled orders is primarily attributable to the
Women's Sleepwear business, as well as an increase in open orders at Topsville,
Inc., the Company's infants' and children's apparel business, slightly offset by
a decrease in backlog relating to our catalogue business. 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 increase in unfilled orders at
September 15, 2003, compared with a comparable date in fiscal 2002, should
favorably impact revenues and earnings during fiscal 2004.

The Company employed 199 persons as of June 30, 2003, of whom 124 were
on a salaried basis and the balance on an hourly basis. At June 30, 2003, 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 apparel and handbags, 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 was paid over a fifteen-month period from
closing from working capital and 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, and the remainder of the purchase
price was paid in quarterly installments through October 2002 from working
capital and our bank line of credit.

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

The Company owns a 140,000 square foot facility in West New York, New
Jersey, in which the executive offices and one of its warehouse facilities is
located. The Company currently leases approximately 70,000 square feet of this
West New York facility to outside parties. The Company also leases five showroom
and office facilities in New York City totaling approximately 32,000 square
feet, as well as a shipping facility in Medley, Florida for its Topsville
operations with approximately 35,000 square feet of warehouse and office space.
Reference is made to Note D, "Commitments and Contingencies," of the Notes to
Consolidated Financial Statements on page F-15 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
consolidated 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.

Finite Long-lived assets. In the evaluation of the fair value and
future benefits of finite lived assets, we perform an analysis of the
anticipated undiscounted future net cash flows of the related finite long-lived
assets. If the carrying value of the related asset exceeds the undiscounted cash
flows, the carrying value is reduced to its fair value. Various factors
including future sales growth and profit margins are included in this analysis.
To the extent these future projections change, the conclusion regarding
impairment may differ from the current estimates.

Goodwill. We evaluate goodwill annually or whenever events and changes
in circumstances suggest that the carrying amount may not be recoverable from
its estimated future cash flows. In making this assessment, management relies on
a number of factors including operating results, business plans, economic
projections, anticipated future cash flows and marketplace data. A change in
these underlying assumptions may cause a change in the results of the tests and,
as such, could cause fair value to be less than the carrying value. In such
event, we would then be required to record a charge which would impact earnings.

Deferred taxes. Should the Company determine that it becomes more
likely than not 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 decrease in cash and cash equivalents for the fiscal year ended
June 30, 2003 of $29,000 was the result of funds provided by operating
activities totaling $3,816,000, offset by funds used in investing activities of
$300,000 and by funds used in financing activities totaling $3,545,000. Net cash
provided by operating activities resulted primarily from a decrease in inventory
levels totaling $1,730,000 and an increase in accounts payable and other current
liabilities of $745,000. Net earnings provided another $683,000 to the increase
in operating net cash provided from operations. Cash used in investing
activities totaling $300,000 was for purchases of property and equipment. Funds
used in financing activities were, for the most part, the result of payments of
$5,120,000 to the Company's bank lender under our credit facility, plus the
remaining installment payments, totaling $1,100,000, for the Topsville and the
I. Appel acquisitions, offset by $3,023,000 of net mortgage loan proceeds.

On December 23, 2002, the Company entered into a line of credit
agreement with a new bank. This credit facility, which expires December 1, 2004,
provides for short-term loans and the issuance of letters of credit in an
aggregate amount not to exceed $32,000,000. Based on a borrowing formula, the
Company may borrow up to $22,000,000 in short-term loans and up to $32,000,000
including letters of credit. Substantially all of the Company's assets are
pledged to the bank as collateral (except for the West New York, New Jersey
facility, which has been separately mortgaged, as noted below). The line of
credit requires that the Company maintain a minimum tangible net worth of
$11,000,000 through June 30, 2003 and $12,000,000 through June 30, 2004. As of
June 30, 2003, borrowing on the short-term line of credit was $3,975,000, and
the Company had $3,658,000 of additional availability (based on the borrowing
formula) under the credit facility. At June 30,2003, the Company was
contingently obligated on open letters of credit for approximately $19,927,000.
Interest on borrowings under the line of credit is at the bank's prime rate or
at LIBOR plus 250 basis points, at the option of the Company. The bank's prime
rate at June 30, 2003 was 4.00%.

On August 14, 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 under the caption "Item 2. Properties"). 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.

The Company believes that funds provided by operations, existing
working capital, and the Company's bank line of credit and mortgage financing
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-16 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,
2003.

The Company previously announced that the Board of Directors authorized
the repurchase by the Company of up to 350,000 shares of the Company's Common
Stock. Purchases may be made from time to time in the open market and through
privately negotiated transactions, subject to general market and other
conditions. The Company intends to finance these repurchases from its own funds
from operations and/or from its bank credit facility. As of June 30, 2003, the
Company purchased 99,700 shares of its Common Stock at a cost of approximately
$287,000.

As of June 30, 2003, 2002 and 2001, working capital was $13,947,000,
$9,747,000, and $12,477,000, respectively. The ratio of current assets to
current liabilities for those same periods was 2.0 to 1, 1.5 to 1, and 2.6 to 1,
respectively. The increase in the current ratio in fiscal 2003 compared to
fiscal 2002 is primarily attributable to the use of funds provided by operations
and the proceeds from the August 2002 mortgage financing to reduce short-term
borrowing. The Company's cash and cash equivalents totaled $66,000, $95,000, and
$66,000, at June 30, 2003, 2002 and 2001, respectively.

Results of Operations

2003 Compared to 2002

Net sales for fiscal 2003 totaled $108,960,000, an increase of
$27,929,000, or 34.5%, compared to the prior fiscal year. Sales by category were
as follows:

Net sales for the Apparel category in fiscal 2003 were $82,615,000, or
$33,612,000 higher than the prior fiscal year. This 68.6% increase was primarily
due to the inclusion of a full year of net sales of Topsville in the current
year, compared with only six months of sales in the prior year. In addition,
higher levels of shipping to existing and new customers of the women's sleepwear
business, mostly during the first half of the Company's fiscal year, accounted
for the remainder of the increase in this category.

Net sales for the Handbags category in fiscal 2003 were $26,345,000, or
about 18% lower than the prior fiscal year's total of $32,028,000. The sales
decrease mostly reflected the non-renewal of the Anne Klein license and lower
sales for the premium bag business, offset somewhat by higher sales in the
children's handbag division.

Gross margins were 23.4% in both fiscal 2003 and 2002. However, the
period ended June 30, 2002 includes a $389,000 expense related to the portion of
purchase costs allocated to inventory for the acquisition of Topsville in
January 2002, which had the effect of decreasing last year's gross margins by
one-half of one percent.

Gross margins by category were as follows:

10


Gross margin for the Apparel category in 2003 increased to 23.9% in
2003 from 21.9% in 2002. The 2.0% increase was primarily attributable to better
2003 full-year margins in the children's apparel business, acquired in January
2002.

Gross margin for the Handbags category in 2003 decreased to 21.8% in
2003 from 26.9% in 2002. This decrease was mainly due to the non-renewal of the
Anne Klein licensing business and lower competitive margins in our premium
business, offset to some extent by better children's handbag margins.

Shipping, selling and administrative expenses increased by $3,808,000
in fiscal 2003 (including a prior-year $900,000 charge related to the Topsville
acquisition) mainly due to volume related expenses in fiscal 2003 compared to
the prior fiscal year. However, as a percentage of net sales, shipping, selling
and administrative expenses declined to 21.7% from 24.5% in fiscal 2002, due to
the relatively lower level of fixed expenses in fiscal 2003 compared to higher
net sales.

Interest expense was $546,000, an increase of $253,000 from the last
fiscal year, primarily the result of interest expense associated with the
$3,250,000 mortgage financing consummated in August 2002, and also from a
greater level of borrowing needed to finance the increased volume of business in
the current fiscal year compared to fiscal 2002.

Other income was $11,000 for both fiscal 2003 and fiscal 2002.

Net earnings of $683,000 for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2003
compared to a net loss of $739,000 in the prior year (including an after-tax
charge of $825,000 relating to the fair value adjustment in connection with the
Topsville acquisition). This year's higher net earnings were primarily due to
higher gross margin dollars offset by higher interest costs, a relatively lower
percentage of shipping, selling and administrative expenses, as discussed above,
and a higher effective tax rate, primarily the result of expired foreign tax
credits.

2002 Compared to 2001

Net sales for fiscal 2002 totaled $81,031,000, 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 and robes 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 and robes business. However,
the period ended June 30, 2002 includes a $389,000 expense related to the
portion of purchase costs allocated to inventory in connection with the
acquisition of Topsville. Gross margins by category were as follows:

Gross margin for the Apparel category 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 and robes 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 the
same as 2001, at 26.9%. 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.

11


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 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 fiscal year was primarily due to accounting
for the acquisition of Topsville, Inc. Excluding an after-tax charge of $825,000
in fiscal 2002, the Company had earnings of $86,000 compared to $100,000 in the
prior fiscal year.


Recently Issued Accounting Standards

In June 2002, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Statement
of Financial Accounting Standard ("SFAS") No. 146, "Accounting for Costs
Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities" ("SFAS No. 146"), replacing
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, instead of at the date an entity
commits to an exit plan. This statement also established that fair value is the
objective for the initial measurement of the liability. SFAS No. 146 is
effective for exit or disposal activities that are initiated after December 31,
2002. The adoption of SFAS No. 146 has not had, and is not expect to have, a
material impact on our consolidated financial statements.


In November 2002, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation ("FIN") No. 45,
"Guarantor's Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including
Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others" ("FIN 45"). FIN 45 requires that
upon issuance of a guarantee, a guarantor must recognize a liability for the
fair value of an obligation assumed under a guarantee. FIN 45 also requires
additional disclosures by a guarantor in its interim and annual financial
statements about the obligations associated with guarantees issued. The
recognition provisions of FIN 45 will be effective for any guarantees that are
issued or modified after December 31, 2002. The disclosure requirement is
effective for our Fiscal year ended June 30, 2003. We have evaluated the
accounting provisions of the interpretations and there was no material impact on
our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows for the year ended
June 30, 2003. The Company has not provided any financial guarantees as of June
30, 2003.

In December 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 148, "Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation" ("SFAS No. 148"). SFAS No. 148 provides alternative methods of
transition for a voluntary change to the fair value based method of accounting
for stock-based employee compensation. In addition, SFAS No. 148 amends the
disclosure requirements of FASB Statement No. 123, "Accounting For Stock-Based
Compensation" ("SFAS 123") to require more prominent and more frequent
disclosures in financial statements about the effects of stock-based
compensation. SFAS 148 is effective for fiscal years ending after December 31,
2002. We will continue to account for stock-based equity compensation using the
intrinsic value method of APB Opinion 25. We are required to follow the
prescribed disclosure format and have provided the additional disclosures
required by SFAS No. 148 for the year ended June 30, 2003.

12


In January 2003, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 46 ("FIN 46"), --
Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities -- with the objective of improving
financial reporting by companies involved with variable interest entities. A
variable interest entity is a corporation, partnership, trust, or any other
legal structure used for business purposes that either (a) does not have equity
investors with voting rights, or (b) has equity investors that do not provide
sufficient financial resources for the entity to support its activities.
Historically, entities generally were not consolidated unless the entity was
controlled through voting interests. FIN 46 changes that by requiring a variable
interest entity to be consolidated by a company if that company is subject to a
majority of the risk of loss from the variable interest entity's activities or
entitled to receive a majority of the entity's residual returns or both. A
company that consolidates a variable interest entity is called the "primary
beneficiary" of that entity. FIN 46 also requires disclosures about variable
interest entities that a company is not required to consolidate but in which it
has a significant variable interest. The consolidation requirements of FIN 46
apply immediately to variable interest entities created after January 31, 2003.
The consolidation requirements of FIN 46 apply to existing entities in the first
fiscal year or interim period after January 31, 2003, regardless of when the
variable interest entity was established. We have evaluated the accounting
provisions of the interpretations and there was no material impact on our
financial condition, results of operations or cash flows, since the Company is
not the primary beneficiary of any variable interest entity.

In April 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 149, Amendment of Statement 133 on
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities. This statement amends and
clarifies financial reporting for derivative instruments, including certain
derivative instruments embedded in other contracts and for hedging activities.
This statement is effective for contracts entered into or modified after June
30, 2003. We are currently evaluating the impact of adopting this statement on
our consolidated financial position and results of operations.

In May 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 150, Accounting for Certain Financial
Instruments with Characteristics of Both Liabilities and Equity. This statement
establishes standards for how a company classifies and measures certain
financial instruments with characteristics of both liabilities and equity. This
statement is effective for financial instruments entered into or modified after
May 31, 2003 and otherwise is effective at the beginning of the first interim
period beginning after June 15, 2003. The statement will be implemented by
reporting the cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle for
financial instruments created before the issuance date of the statement and
still existing at the beginning of the period of adoption. Although we are still
in the process of reviewing the new statement, we believe this statement will
have no material impact on our 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. Nevertheless, a
sudden increase in interest rates (which under our bank line of credit is at the
prime rate or at LIBOR plus 250 basis points) may, especially during peak
borrowing, potentially have a significant negative impact on the Company's
results of operations. The Company estimates that a 100 basis point fluctuation
in applicable market interest rates would increase or decrease interest expense
by approximately $77,000, based on fiscal 2003 borrowing levels.

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.

At the end of the period covered by this report, the Company carried
out an evaluation, with the participation of management of the Company,
including the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of
the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company's disclosure
controls and procedures. Based on the Company's evaluation, the Company's Chief
Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company's
disclosure controls and procedures were effective. There was no change in the
Company's internal control over financial reporting during the year ended June
30, 2003 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially
affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting.

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, 2003 and 2002, and the related consolidated
statements of operations and comprehensive earnings (loss), stockholders' equity
and cash flows for each of the three fiscal years in the period ended June 30,
2003. Our audits also included the consolidated financial statement schedule
listed in the Index at Item 15(a)2. 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, 2003 and 2002, and the results of their operations
and their cash flows for each of the three fiscal years in the period ended June
30, 2003, 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 and other intangible
assets as of July 1, 2001 to conform with Financial Accounting Standards Board
Statement No. 142.

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 returns,
allowance for doubtful accounts, allowance for sales discounts, goodwill and
lives of finite-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. The carrying value of the mortgage loan
approximates fair value based upon the relatively small change in interest rates
since inception of the mortgage.

F-7


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.

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. 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.

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.

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


Trademarks
Trademarks, included in other assets, are being amortized on a straight-line
basis over periods not exceeding 10 years.

F-8


Impairment of Finite-Lived Assets
The Company evaluates finite-lived assets in accordance with Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment
or Disposal of Long-lived assets. This statement supersedes SFAS No. 121,
Accounting for Impairment of Long-lived Assets and for finite-lived Assets to Be
Disposed of. Finite-lived assets are evaluated for recoverability in accordance
with SFAS No. 144 whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that an
asset may have been impaired. In evaluating an asset for recoverability, the
Company estimates the future cash flows expected to result from the use of the
asset and eventual disposition. If the sum of the expected future cash flows
(undiscounted and without interest charges) is less than the carrying amount of
the asset, an impairment loss, equal to the excess of the carrying amount over
the fair market value of the asset is recognized. Management believes at this
time, that carrying values are not impaired and useful lives continue to be
appropriate

Goodwill
The Company adopted SFAS No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Asset"
effective July 1, 2001, which changes the accounting for goodwill from an
amortization method to an "impairment only" approach. Under SFAS No. 142,
goodwill is no longer amortized, but reviewed for impairment annually or more
frequently if certain indicators arise. Management believes at this time, based
on the valuation process undertaken, that the carrying value continues to be
appropriate.

Stock-Based Compensation
The Company periodically grants stock options to employees. Pursuant to
Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to
Employees, the Company accounts for stock-based employee compensation
arrangements using the intrinsic value method. Accordingly, no compensation
expense has been recorded in the Consolidated Financial Statements with respect
to option grants. The Company has adopted the disclosure-only provisions of
Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 123, Accounting for Stock
Based Compensation, as amended by Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement
No. 148, Accounting for Stock Based Compensation - Transition and Disclosure, an
Amendment of FASB Statement No.123. See Note F to the Company's Consolidated
Financial Statements. 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 earnings (loss) would have been:

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 2003 and 2001: risk-free interest rate of
4.75% and 4.2, expected life of 10 years; expected volatility of 43%; and 177%;
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.

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 $7,000, $24,000 and $20,000 for the years ended June 30, 2003,
2002, and 2001, 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 2003 2002 2001
---------------- ---- ---- ----

Apparel 78% 60% 54%

Handbags 22% 40% 46%
---- ---- ----

100% 100% 100%
---- ---- ----

During the years ended June 30, 2003, 2002 and 2001, sales revenues derived from
one customer were 36%, 19% and 17%, respectively. Sales to a second customer
were 12%, 11% and 15%, and to a third customer were 8%, 10% and 12%,
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 44% of the Company's
purchases for the year ended June 30, 2003. 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 2002, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Statement
of Financial Accounting Standard ("SFAS") No. 146, "Accounting for Costs
Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities" ("SFAS No. 146"), replacing
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, instead of at the date an entity
commits to an exit plan. This statement also established that fair value is the
objective for the initial measurement of the liability. SFAS No. 146 is
effective for exit or disposal activities that are initiated after December 31,
2002. The adoption of SFAS No. 146 has not had, and is not expected to have, a
material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

In November 2002, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation ("FIN") No. 45,
"Guarantor's Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including
Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others" ("FIN 45"). FIN 45 requires that
upon issuance of a guarantee, a guarantor must recognize a liability for the
fair value of an obligation assumed under a guarantee. FIN 45 also requires
additional disclosures by a guarantor in its interim and annual financial
statements about the obligations associated with guarantees issued. The
recognition provisions of FIN 45 will be effective for any guarantees that are
issued or modified after December 31, 2002. The disclosure requirement is
effective for our fiscal year ended June 30, 2003. The Company has evaluated the
accounting provisions of the interpretations and there was no material impact on
our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows for the year ended
June 30, 2003. The Company has not provided any financial guarantees as of June
30, 2003.

F-12


In December 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 148, "Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation" ("SFAS No. 148"). SFAS No. 148 provides alternative methods of
transition for a voluntary change to the fair value based method of accounting
for stock-based employee compensation. In addition, SFAS No. 148 amends the
disclosure requirements of FASB Statement No. 123, "Accounting For Stock-Based
Compensation" ("SFAS 123") to require more prominent and more frequent
disclosures in financial statements about the effects of stock-based
compensation. SFAS 148 is effective for fiscal years ending after December 31,
2002. The Company will continue to account for stock-based equity compensation
using the intrinsic value method of APB Opinion 25. The Company is required to
follow the prescribed disclosure format and have provided the additional
disclosures required by SFAS No. 148 for the year ended June 30, 2003.

In January 2003, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 46 ("FIN 46"), --
Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities -- with the objective of improving
financial reporting by companies involved with variable interest entities. A
variable interest entity is a corporation, partnership, trust, or any other
legal structure used for business purposes that either (a) does not have equity
investors with voting rights, or (b) has equity investors that do not provide
sufficient financial resources for the entity to support its activities.
Historically, entities generally were not consolidated unless the entity was
controlled through voting interests. FIN 46 changes that by requiring a variable
interest entity to be consolidated by a company if that company is subject to a
majority of the risk of loss from the variable interest entity's activities or
entitled to receive a majority of the entity's residual returns or both. A
company that consolidates a variable interest entity is called the "primary
beneficiary" of that entity. FIN 46 also requires disclosures about variable
interest entities that a company is not required to consolidate but in which it
has a significant variable interest. The consolidation requirements of FIN 46
apply immediately to variable interest entities created after January 31, 2003.
The consolidation requirements of FIN 46 apply to existing entities in the first
fiscal year or interim period after January 31, 2003, regardless of when the
variable interest entity was established. The Company has evaluated the
accounting provisions of the interpretations and there was no material impact on
its financial condition, results of operations or cash flows, since the Company
is not the primary beneficiary of any variable interest entity.

F-13


In April 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 149, Amendment of Statement 133 on
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities. This statement amends and
clarifies financial reporting for derivative instruments, including certain
derivative instruments embedded in other contracts and for hedging activities.
This statement is effective for contracts entered into or modified after June
30, 2003. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this
statement on its consolidated financial position and results of operations.

In May 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 150, Accounting for Certain Financial
Instruments with Characteristics of Both Liabilities and Equity. This statement
establishes standards for how a company classifies and measures certain
financial instruments with characteristics of both liabilities and equity. This
statement is effective for financial instruments entered into or modified after
May 31, 2003 and otherwise is effective at the beginning of the first interim
period beginning after June 15, 2003. The statement will be implemented by
reporting the cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle for
financial instruments created before the issuance date of the statement and
still existing at the beginning of the period of adoption. Although we are still
in the process of reviewing the new statement, the Company believes this
statement will have no material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

Reclassifications
Certain items in prior years have been reclassified for comparative purposes.

The Company has not provided any financial guarantees as of June 30, 2003

NOTE E - CREDIT FACILITIES

On December 23, 2002 the Company entered into a line of credit agreement with a
new bank. The new credit facility, which expires December 1, 2004, provides for
short-term loans and the issuance of letters of credit in an aggregate amount
not exceeding $32,000,000. Based on a borrowing formula, the Company may borrow
up to $22,000,000 in short-term loans and up to $32,000,000 including letters of
credit. Substantially all of the Company's assets are pledged to the bank as
collateral (except for the West New York, New Jersey facility, which has been
separately mortgaged as noted below). The line of credit requires that the
Company maintain a minimum tangible net worth of $11,000,000 through June 30,
2003 and $12,000,000 through June 30, 2004. As of June 30, 2003, borrowing on
the short-term line of credit was $3,975,000, and the Company had $3,658,000 of
additional availability (based on the borrowing formula) under its credit
facility. At June 30, 2003, the Company was contingently obligated on open
letters of credit for approximately $19,927,000. 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, 2003 was 4.00%.

During fiscal 2003, the average amount outstanding under the short-term line was
$7,657,000 with a weighted average interest rate of 4.16%. During 2002, the
average amount outstanding under the short-term line was $6,235,000 with a
weighted average interest rate of 4.75%. The maximum amount outstanding during
fiscal 2003 and fiscal 2002 was $18,000,000 and $10,000,000, respectively.

On August 14, 2002, the Company consummated a mortgage loan 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. The $3,250,000 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.

NOTE F - STOCK OPTIONS

The Company maintains a Stock Option Plan (the "Plan") for key employees and
consultants of the Company. The plan provides for the grant of incentive stock
options and non-qualified stock options to purchase up to 300,000 shares of
common stock. Under the Plan, the Board of Directors determines the per share
option price which, in the case of incentive stock options, may not be less than
the fair market value of the stock on the date of the grant, or 110% of the fair
market value for individuals who own or are deemed to own more than 10% of the
combined voting power of all classes of stock of the Company. Options, which may
be granted to November 2010, are exercisable as determined by the Board of
Directors.

NOTE I - ACQUISITIONS

On January 2002, the Company acquired all of the issued and outstanding stock of
Topsville, Inc., a New York City based manufacturer and distributor of private
label infants' and children's clothing. The tangible and intangible assets
acquired include, among other things, finished goods, work-in-process and raw
material inventory, customer orders, trade names, office leases in New York City
and Hong Kong, an office/warehouse facility in Florida, and office equipment,
furniture and fixtures. The Company used its line of bank credit other working
capital to pay for a portion of the purchase price at closing.

The aggregate purchase price for the acquisition was $3,246,000, of which
$1,746,000 was paid at the closing of the transaction and the remainder of which
was paid during the fifteen-month period after closing. At June 30, 2003 the
entire obligation under the purchase agreement had been paid.

The Company recorded a pre-tax 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 was charged to earnings during the first
quarter of fiscal year 2003.

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

Assuming the acquisition was acquired on July 1, 2000, the pro forma results
would have been as follows (in thousands, except per share amounts) (unaudited):

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. These amounts were paid from current working
capital. The proforma impact of the acquisition on the Company's operations for
fiscal 2001 was not significant.

Had the Company been accounting for its goodwill under SFAS No. 142 for all
periods presented, the Company's net earnings (loss) and earnings (loss) 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, 2003, 2002 and 2001.

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
contributions by the Company were made during fiscal 2003.

(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 256,000 and 344,000 common shares were outstanding as of
June 30, 2003 and 2001, 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 - REPURCHASE OF SHARES FOR TREASURY

The Company previously announced that the Board of Directors authorized the
repurchase by the Company of up to 350,000 shares of the Company's Common Stock.
Purchases may be made from time to time in the open market and through privately
negotiated transactions, subject to general market and other conditions. The
Company is financing these repurchases from its own funds from operations and/or
from its bank credit facility. As of June 30, 2003, the Company purchased 99,700
shares of its Common Stock at a cost of approximately $287,000.
