Business: Unifi, Inc., a New York corporation formed in 1969, together with its subsidiaries, hereinafter set forth, (the "Company" or "Unifi"), is engaged predominantly in the business of processing yarns by: texturing of synthetic filament polyester and nylon fiber; and spinning of cotton and cotton blend fibers. The Company's texturing operation mainly involves purchasing partially oriented yarn (POY), which is either raw polyester or nylon filament fiber, from chemical manufacturers and using high speed machines to draw, heat and twist the POY to produce yarns having various physical characteristics, depending upon its ultimate end use. The Company's cotton spinning operation mainly involves the spinning on open-end spindles of cotton, cotton and undyed synthetic blends, and cotton and pre-dyed polyester blends into yarns of different strengths and thickness. The Company currently sells textured polyester yarns, nylon yarns, dyed yarns, covered yarns, spun yarns made of cotton, cotton and undyed synthetic blends, pre-dyed cotton blends, and cotton and pre-dyed polyester blends domestically and internationally to weavers and knitters who produce fabrics for the apparel, industrial, hosiery, home furnishing, auto upholstery, activewear, and underwear markets. The Company, internationally, has manufacturing facilities in Letterkenny, County Donegal, Republic of Ireland, which texturizes polyester, as well as producing its own POY. On June 30, 1997, Unifi and Parkdale Mills, Inc. ("Parkdale") entered into a joint venture combining all of Unifi's cotton spinning operations with certain of Parkdale's spun yarn assets into a new company named "Parkdale America, LLC" (the "LLC"). Parkdale is the majority owner of the LLC and manages the day-to-day operations of the LLC. For further information on this matter, reference is made to Unifi's Form 8-K dated June 30, 1997, and filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC" or "Commission") on July 15, 1997, which is incorporated herein by reference. All further reference to Unifi's cotton spinning operations in this report should be read in light of the Parkdale transaction. SOURCES AND AVAILABILITY OF RAW MATERIALS: A. POY. The primary suppliers of POY to the Company are E. I. DuPont de Nemours and Company, Hoechst Celanese Corporation, Wellman Industries, Cookson Fibers, Inc., and Nan Ya Plastics Corp. of America with the majority of the Company's POY being supplied by DuPont. Although the Company is heavily dependent upon a limited number of suppliers, the Company has not had and does not anticipate any material difficulty in obtaining its raw POY. I-1 B. Cotton. The Company buys its cotton, which is a commodity and is traded on established markets, from brokers such as Staple Cotton Coop., Dunavant Enterprises, Conti-Cotton, HoHenBerg Brothers Co., Allenberg Cotton Co., and Carolina Cotton Growers. The Company has not had and does not anticipate any material difficulty in obtaining cotton. PATENTS AND LICENSES: The Company currently has several patents and registered trademarks, none of which it considers material to its business as a whole. CUSTOMERS: The Company in fiscal year ended June 29, 1997, sold textured and spun yarns to approximately 1,400 customers, no one customer's purchases exceeded 10% of net sales during said period, the ten largest customers accounted for approximately 29% of total net sales and the Company does not believe that it is dependent on any one customer. BACKLOG: The Company, other than in connection with certain foreign sales and for textured yarns that are package dyed according to customers' specifications, does not manufacture to order. The Company's products can be used in many ways and can be thought of in terms of a commodity subject to the laws of supply and demand and, therefore, does not have what is considered a backlog of orders. In addition, the Company does not consider its products to be seasonal ones. COMPETITIVE CONDITIONS: The textile industry in which the Company currently operates is keenly competitive. The Company processes and sells high-volume commodity products, pricing is highly competitive with product quality and customer service being essential for differentiating the competitors within the industry. Product quality insures manufacturing efficiencies for the customer. The Company's polyester and nylon yarns, dyed yarns, covered yarns and cotton and cotton blend yarns compete with a number of other domestic producers of such yarns. In the sale of polyester filament yarns, major competitors are Atlas Yarn Company, Inc., Burlington Industries, Inc., and Milliken & Company; in the sale of nylon yarns, dyed yarns, and covered yarns, major competitors are Jefferson Mills, Inc., Spanco Yarns, Inc., Regal Manufacturing Company, and Spectrum Dyed Yarns, Inc.; and in the sale of cotton and cotton blend yarns, major competitors are Parkdale Mills, Inc., Avondale Mills, Inc., Harriett & Henderson, Mayo Yarns, Inc., and TNS Mills, Inc. RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT: The estimated amount spent during each of the last three fiscal years on Company-sponsored and Customer-sponsored research and development activities is considered immaterial. I-2 COMPLIANCE WITH CERTAIN GOVERNMENT REGULATIONS: Management of the Company believes that the operation of the Company's production facilities and the disposal of waste materials are substantially in compliance with applicable laws and regulations. EMPLOYEES: The number of full-time employees of the Company is approximately 7,000.
