The foregoing unaudited consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to a fair statement of the results for the interim periods. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. The results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the year. 2.		The financial information presented herein should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements included in the Registrant's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended May 31, 1996. 3.		The Company is involved in certain legal matters primarily arising in the normal course of business. In the opinion of management, the Company's liability under any of these matters would not materially affect its financial condition or results of operations. Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial - ---------------------------------------------------------- Condition and Results of Operations. - ------------------------------------ 	Results of Operations 	----------------------- NET SALES Net sales for the first quarter of the 1997 fiscal year, which ended August 30, 1996, declined by 8.8% from net sales for the first quarter of the previous year. Men's Shirt Group sales declined by $11,716,000. The increased sales in Polo7 for Boys, Tommy Hilfiger7 Dress Shirts and Tommy Hilfiger Golf did not offset declines in private label dress and sport shirts, Ely & Walker and the discontinued Savane7 license. Some of the private label decline was due to the Company's wrinkle-free, wet-processing exit and was therefore favorable to earnings. Tailored Clothing sales increased $2,594,000 with increases in Oscar de la Renta7 and private label. Men's Slacks sales declined slightly. Ongoing Womenswear sales declined $3,142,000 with a further decline of $3,964,000 due to last year's divestiture (B.J. Designs) and closure (RENNY). The Company experienced an overall net sales unit volume decrease of approximately 17.5% and an overall 10.2% increase in the average net sales price per unit. The increase in the average sales price per unit was due to increased sales in the Company's higher margin lines, and decreased sales in private label, lower margin lines. COST OF GOODS SOLD Cost of goods sold as a percentage of net sales, was 81.7% in the first quarter of the current year as compared to 83.0% in the first quarter of the prior year. The decrease in cost of goods sold as a percentage of net sales was due in part to the increased sales of higher margin lines. Another factor contributing to the decreased percentage was a 30% reduction in the Company's domestic production capacity and a 35% increase in the Company's offshore production capacity from the same period in the prior year. SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES Selling, general and administrative expenses (excluding the environmental charge in the first quarter of the prior year) declined by $632,000 to $24,686,000 or 14.3% of net sales in the first quarter of the current year from $25,318,000 or 13.4% of net sales in the first quarter of the prior year. The decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses are predominantly the result of last year's divestiture (B.J Designs) and closure (RENNY). INTEREST EXPENSE Net interest expense declined by $745,000 to $1,096,000 or 0.6% of net sales in the first quarter of the current year from $1,841,000 or 1.0% of net sales in the first quarter of the prior year. The reduction in interest expense was due primarily to the reduced inventory from the prior year. INCOME TAXES The Company's effective tax rate was 40.0% in the first quarter of the current year and 40.1% in the first quarter of the previous year and does not differ significantly from the Company's statutory rate. FUTURE OPERATING RESULTS The Company views the improvement in apparel sales at retail in August as encouraging, however the Company expects the continuation of highly competitive market conditions at wholesale and retail. The Company expects sales in the second quarter to be approximately even with last year and sales for the year to be equal to or slightly higher than the last fiscal year. The Company expects improved profitability to continue throughout the remainder of the year. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES OPERATING ACTIVITIES Operating activities used $22,891,000 during the first quarter of the current year and used $17,172,000 in the first quarter of the prior year. The primary factors contributing to this increased use of funds were decreased inventory offset by increased net earnings and a smaller decrease in trade payables from the prior year. INVESTING ACTIVITIES Investing activities used $873,000 in the current quarter and used $11,988,000 in the comparable quarter of the prior year. The primary factors contributing to this change were the acquisition of Ely & Walker in the first quarter of the prior year and the completion of several facility expansions which were in progress in the first quarter of the prior year. FINANCING ACTIVITIES Financing activities generated $26,606,000 in the current period and $37,209,000 in the comparable period of the prior year. The primary factor contributing to this decrease was decreased short-term borrowings, due to the operating and investing activities described above. The Company purchased and retired 100,000 shares of its common stock during the three months ended August 30, 1996. During the period after the end of the first quarter through October 7, 1996, no shares have been purchased and retired. Due to the exercise of employee stock options a net of 1,400 shares of the Company's common stock were issued during the quarter ended August 30, 1996 and 1,240 shares were issued since August 30, 1996 through October 7, 1996. On October 7, 1996 the Company's Board of Directors declared a cash dividend of $.20 per share payable November 30, 1996 to shareholders of record on November 15, 1996. WORKING CAPITAL Working capital decreased from $141,226,000 at the end of the first quarter of the prior year to $137,337,000 at the end of the 1996 fiscal year and increased to $138,155,000 at the end of the first quarter of the current fiscal year. The ratio of current assets to current liabilities was 1.9 at the end of the first quarter of the prior year, 2.4 at the end of the prior fiscal year, and 2.1 at the end of the first quarter of the current year. FUTURE LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES The Company believes it has the ability to generate cash and/or has available borrowing capacity to meet its foreseeable needs. The sources of funds primarily include funds provided by operations and both short and long- term borrowings. The uses of funds primarily include working capital requirements, capital expenditures, acquisitions, dividends and repayment of long-term debt. The Company regularly utilizes committed bank lines of credit and other uncommitted bank resources to meet working capital requirements. On August 30, 1996, the Company had available for its use lines of credit with several lenders aggregating $50,000,000. The Company has agreed to pay commitment fees for these available lines of credit. At August 30, 1996, $45,000,000 was in use under these lines. Of the $45,000,000, $40,000,000 is long-term. In addition, the Company has $188,000,000 in uncommitted lines of credit, of which $98,000,000 is reserved exclusively for letters of credit. The Company pays no commitment fees for these available lines of credit. At August 30, 1996, $51,000,000 was in use under these lines of credit. Maximum borrowings from all these sources during the first three months of the current year were $96,000,000 of which $56,000,000 was short-term. The Company anticipates continued use and availability of both committed and uncommitted resources as working capital needs may require. The Company considers possible acquisitions of apparel-related businesses that are compatible with its long-term strategies. There are no present plans to sell securities or enter into off-balance sheet financing arrangements.
