PART I

ITEM 1. BUSINESS

GENERAL

Fossil, Inc. (the "Company") is a leader in the design, development,
marketing and distribution of contemporary, high quality fashion watches, and
accessories. The Company developed the FOSSIL(R) brand name to convey a
distinctive fashion, quality and value message and a brand image reminiscent of
"America in the 1950s" that suggests a time of fun, fashion and humor. Since its
inception in 1984, the Company has grown from its original flagship FOSSIL watch
product into a diversified company offering an extensive line of fashion
watches, small leather goods, belts, handbags and sunglasses under the FOSSIL
and RELIC(R) brands and FOSSIL brand apparel. In addition to developing its own
brands, the Company leverages its development and production expertise by
designing and manufacturing private label products for some of the most
prestigious companies in the world, including national retailers, entertainment
companies and theme restaurants. The Company's successful expansion of its
product lines has contributed to its increasing net sales and operating profits.

The Company has capitalized on the increasing awareness of the FOSSIL
brand by entering into various license agreements for other categories of
fashion accessories. The Company has entered into various license agreements to
design, manufacture, distribute and market watches under the brands of other
companies, including EMPORIO ARMANI(R) , DKNY(R) and DIESEL(R).

The Company's products are sold to department stores and specialty
retail stores in over 80 countries worldwide through Company-owned foreign sales
subsidiaries and through a network of approximately 47 independent distributors.
The Company's foreign operations include a presence in Europe, South and Central
America, the Caribbean, Canada, the Far East, Australia and the Middle East. In
addition, the Company's products are offered at retail locations in major
airports in the United States, on cruise ships and in Company-owned and
independently-owned, authorized FOSSIL retail stores and kiosks in certain
international markets.

The Company is a Delaware corporation formed in 1991 and is the
successor to a Texas corporation formed in 1984. In 1993, the Company completed
an initial public offering of 2,760,000 shares of common stock, par value $.01
(the "Common Stock"). The Company conducts substantially all of its operations
in the United States through Fossil Partners, L.P., a Texas limited partnership
formed in 1994 of which the Company is the sole general partner. The Company
also conducts operations in the United States and certain international markets
through various directly and indirectly owned subsidiaries. The Company's
operations in Hong Kong relating to the procurement of watches from various
manufacturing sources are conducted by Fossil (East) Limited ("Fossil East"), a
wholly owned subsidiary of the Company acquired in 1992. The Company's principal
executive offices are located at 2280 N. Greenville Avenue, Richardson, Texas
75082, and its telephone number at such address is (972) 234-2525.

INDUSTRY OVERVIEW

WATCH PRODUCTS

The Company believes that the current market for watches in the United
States can be divided into four segments. One segment of the market consists of
fine watches characterized by internationally known brand names such as Concord,
Piaget and Rolex. Watches offered in this segment are usually made of precious
metals or stainless steel and may be set with precious gems. These watches are
often manufactured in Switzerland and are sold by trade jewelers and in the fine
jewelry departments of better department stores and other purveyors of luxury
goods at retail prices ranging from $1,500 to in excess of $20,000. A second
segment of the market consists of fine premium branded and designer watches
manufactured in Switzerland and the Far East such as Gucci, Rado, Raymond Weil,
Seiko and Swiss Army. These watches are sold at retail prices generally ranging
from $150 to $1,500. The Company's EMPORIO ARMANI line generally competes in
this market segment. A third segment of the market consists of watches sold by
mass marketers, which include certain watches sold under the Timex brand name as
well as certain watches sold by Armitron under various brand names and labels.
Retail prices in this segment range from $5 to $40.

The fourth segment of the market consists of moderately priced watches
characterized by contemporary fashion and well known brand names. Moderately
priced watches are typically manufactured in Japan or Hong Kong and are sold by
department stores and specialty stores at retail prices ranging from $40 to
$150. This market segment is targeted by the Company and its principal
competitors, including the companies that market watches under the Guess?, Anne
Klein II, Kenneth Cole and Swatch brand names, whose products attempt to reflect
emerging fashion trends in accessories and apparel. The Company's DKNY and
DIESEL lines generally compete in this segment as well. Some of the watches in
this sector are manufactured under license agreements with companies that market
watches under various brand names, including Guess?, Anne Klein II and Kenneth
Cole. The Company believes that one reason for the growth of this sector has
been that fashion-conscious consumers have increasingly come to regard branded
fashion watches not only as time pieces but also as fashion accessories. This
trend has resulted in consumers owning multiple watches that may differ
significantly in terms of style, features and cost.

FASHION ACCESSORIES

The Company believes that the fashion accessories market in the United
States includes products such as small leather goods, handbags, belts, eyewear,
neckwear, underwear, lounge wear, costume jewelry,

-3-

gloves, hats, hosiery and socks. The Company believes that one reason for the
growth in this line of business is that consumers are becoming more aware of
accessories as fashion statements, and as a result, are purchasing brand name,
quality items that complement other fashion items. These fashion accessory
products are generally marketed through mass merchandisers, department stores
and specialty shops, depending upon price and quality. Higher price point items
include products offered by Coach, Dooney & Burke, Ralph Lauren and Donna Karan.

Moderately priced fashion accessories are typically marketed in
department stores and are characterized by contemporary fashion and well known
brand names at reasonable price points, such as FOSSIL and RELIC. The Company
currently offers small leather goods, handbags, belts, and eyewear for both men
and women through department stores and specialty retailers in the moderate to
upper-moderate price range. Companies such as Calvin Klein, Tommy Hilfiger,
Guess?, Nine West, Kenneth Cole and Liz Claiborne currently operate in this
market.

APPAREL

In 2000, the Company introduced a line of FOSSIL casual apparel that is
distributed exclusively through Company-owned retail stores and the Company's
website. Selling through Company-owned stores allows the Company to effectively
manage visual presentation, information feedback, inventory management and
operating returns. The apparel line is focused on the casual lifestyle of 16 to
24 year old consumers and consists primarily of jeans, tee shirts, and
sweatshirts featuring FOSSIL brand packaging and labeling. The suggested retail
selling price of the apparel line is comparable to that of major competitors
like American Eagle Outfitters and Gap. The Company has leveraged its existing
graphic and store design infrastructure to create a unique product packaging and
store concept that differentiates it from other competitors in order to create
higher perceived value for the products.

BUSINESS STRATEGY

The Company's long-term goal is to capitalize on the strength of its
growing consumer brand recognition and capture an increasing share of a growing
number of markets by providing consumers with fashionable, high quality,
value-driven products. In pursuit of this goal, the Company has adopted
operating and growth strategies that provide the framework for the Company's
future growth, while maintaining the consistency and integrity of its brands.

OPERATING STRATEGY

o FASHION ORIENTATION AND DESIGN INNOVATION. The Company is able to
market its products to consumers with differing tastes and lifestyles
by offering a wide range of brands and product categories at a variety
of price points. The Company attempts to stay abreast of emerging
fashion and lifestyle trends affecting accessories and apparel and it
responds to these trends by making adjustments in its product lines
several times each year. The Company differentiates its products from
those of its competitors principally through innovations in fashion
details, including variations in the treatment of dials, crystals,
cases, straps and bracelets for the Company's watches, innovative
treatments and details in its other accessories and through unique
product packaging for its apparel products.

o COORDINATED PRODUCT PROMOTION. The Company coordinates in-house product
design, packaging, advertising and in-store presentations to more
effectively and cohesively communicate to its target markets the themes
and images associated with its brands. For example, many of the
Company's

-4-

FOSSIL brand products and certain of its accessory products are
packaged in metal tins decorated with designs consistent with the
Company's marketing strategy and product image. In addition, the
Company generally markets its fashion accessory lines through the same
distribution channels as its watch lines, using similar in-store
presentations, graphics and packaging.

o PRODUCT VALUE. The Company's products provide value to the consumer by
offering fashionable, high quality components and features at suggested
retail prices generally below those of competitive products of
comparable quality. The Company is able to offer its watches at a
reasonable price point by manufacturing them principally in the Far
East at lower cost than comparable quality watches manufactured in
Switzerland. In addition, the Company is able to offer its accessories
at reasonable prices because of its close relationships with
manufacturers in the Far East. Unlike certain of its principal
competitors, the Company does not pay royalties on most of its
products, which the Company believes allows it to enjoy certain cost
advantages that enhance its ability to achieve attractive profit
margins.

o CAPTIVE SUPPLIERS. The Company owns a majority interest in a number of
watch assemblers with locations in Hong Kong and China. In addition,
the Company maintains close relationships with accessory manufacturers
in the Far East. The Company believes these relationships create a
significant competitive advantage as they allow the Company to produce
quality products, reduce the delivery time to market and improve
overall operating margins.

o ACTIVELY MANAGE RETAIL SALES. The Company manages the retail sales
process by monitoring customer sales and inventory levels by product
category and style, primarily through EDI, and by assisting retailers
in the conception, development and implementation of their marketing
programs. As a result, the Company believes it enjoys close
relationships with its principal retailers, often allowing it to
influence the mix, quantity and timing of customer purchasing
decisions.

o CENTRALIZED DISTRIBUTION. The Company distributes substantially all of
its products sold in the United States and certain of its products sold
in international markets from its warehouse and distribution center in
Richardson, Texas. The Company also distributes its products to
international markets from warehouse and distribution centers located
in Germany, Italy, Hong Kong, the United Kingdom, Spain and Japan. The
Company believes its centralized distribution capabilities enable it to
reduce inventory risk, increase flexibility in meeting the delivery
requirements of its customers and maintain significant cost advantages
as compared to its competitors.

GROWTH STRATEGY

o INTRODUCE NEW PRODUCTS AND BRANDS. The Company continually introduces
new products within its existing brands and through license agreements
and brand extensions to attract a wide range of consumers with
differing tastes and lifestyles. For example, the Company currently
offers a full line of watch and accessory products under its FOSSIL and
RELIC brands, as well as watches under the EMPORIO ARMANI, DKNY and
DIESEL brand names pursuant to license agreements. The Company also
leverages its brand recognition and its design and marketing expertise
to expand the scope of its product offerings through the selective
licensing of new product categories that complement its existing
products. For example, the Company entered into a license agreement
with Safilo Group to offer FOSSIL optical frames in the United States
and Canada and optical frames and sunglasses in Italy.

-5-

o EXPAND INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS. The Company has increased FOSSIL brand
advertising internationally to accelerate brand recognition. The
Company has also purchased former distributors and entered into joint
venture relationships to gain increased control over the brand and
instilled global-wide marketing efforts. The Company continues to
introduce its licensed-brand products into international markets, open
FOSSIL stores and develop new product lines.

o EXPAND RETAIL LOCATIONS. The Company is currently expanding its
Company-owned FOSSIL retail and outlet locations to further strengthen
its brand image. The Company currently operates 73 retail and outlet
stores and plans to open in the United States an additional seven
retail stores and four outlet stores in 2001. In 2000, the Company
began offering FOSSIL brand apparel products at 14 Company-owned FOSSIL
retail stores in the United States. The Company intends to continue to
offer its watch and accessory products through additional
independently-owned, authorized FOSSIL retail stores in airports, on
cruise ships and in international markets.

o LEVERAGE INFRASTRUCTURE. The Company believes it has the design,
marketing, manufacturing and distribution infrastructure in place to
allow it to manage and grow its businesses. The Company continues to
develop additional products and brands and seeks additional businesses
and products to complement its existing business allowing it to
leverage its existing infrastructure.

PRODUCTS

The Company designs, develops, markets and distributes fashion watches
and accessories, including sunglasses, small leather goods, belts and handbags,
principally under the FOSSIL and RELIC brand names and FOSSIL brand apparel and

designers pursuant to license agreements.

WATCH PRODUCTS

The Company introduced FOSSIL watches, its flagship product, in 1986
and RELIC watches in 1990. Since 1986, the Company has also contracted with
retailers and other customers for the manufacture of watches primarily for sale
under private labels. Sales of the Company's watches for fiscal years 2000, 1999
and 1998 accounted for approximately 71.7%, 76.5%, and 75.5%, respectively, of
the Company's gross sales.

PRIVATE LABEL, PREMIUM AND LICENSED PRODUCTS. The Company designs,
markets and arranges for the manufacture of watches on behalf of certain
retailers, entertainment companies, theme restaurants and other corporate
customers such as Eddie Bauer, Warner Bros. and Disney, as private label
products or as premium and incentive items for use in various corporate events.
Under this arrangement, the Company performs design and product development
functions as well as acts as a sourcing agent for its customers by contracting
for the manufacture of watches, managing the manufacturing process, inspecting
the finished watches, purchasing the watches and arranging for their shipment to
the United States. Participation in the private label and premium businesses
provides the Company with certain advantages, including increased manufacturing
volume, which may reduce the costs of manufacturing the Company's other watch
products, and the strengthening of business relationships with its manufacturing
sources. These lines provide income to the Company with reduced inventory risks
and certain other carrying costs. The Company has also entered into a number of
license agreements for the sale of collectible watches. Under these agreements,
the Company designs, manufactures and markets the goods bearing the trademarks,
trade names and logos of various entities through major department stores within
the Company's channels of distribution, including Pink Panther, Felix the Cat
and I Love Lucy.

FASHION ACCESSORIES

In order to leverage the Company's design and marketing expertise and
its close relationships with its principal retail customers, the Company has
developed a line of fashion accessories, including handbags, and men's and
women's belts, small leather goods and sunglasses. The Company's handbags are
made of a variety of fine leathers and other materials that emphasize classic
styles and incorporate a variety of creative designs. The sunglass line features
optical quality lenses in both plastic and metal frames, with classic and
fashion styling similar to other FOSSIL products. The Company's small leather
goods are made of fine leathers and include items such as mini-bags, coin
purses, key chains and wallets. The Company currently sells its fashion
accessories through a number of its existing major department store and
specialty retail store customers. The Company generally markets its fashion
accessory lines through the same distribution channels as its watch business,
using similar in-store presentations, graphics and packaging. These fashion
accessories are typically sold in locations adjacent to watch departments, which
may lead to purchases by persons who are familiar with the Company's watches.
Sales of the Company's accessory lines for fiscal years 2000, 1999 and 1998
accounted for approximately 24.1%, 22.5% and 23.5%, respectively of the
Company's gross sales.

and women. The products' unique retro-Americana packaging captures the energy
and spirit of the FOSSIL brand. The FOSSIL apparel collection is offered through

OTHER PRODUCTS

LICENSED PRODUCTS. In order to complement the Company's existing line
of products and to increase consumer awareness of the FOSSIL brand, the Company
has entered into license agreements for other categories of fashion accessories.
These license agreements provide for royalty income to the Company based on a
percentage of net sales and are subject to certain guaranteed minimum royalties.
In 1999 the Company entered into a multi-year license agreement with the Safilo
Group for the manufacture, marketing and sale of optical frames under the FOSSIL
brand in the United States and Canada and optical frames and sunglasses in
Italy. The Company also entered into a multi-year license agreement for the
manufacture, marketing and sale of certain handbags, backpacks and sports bags
in Germany, Austria and Switzerland under the FOSSIL brand.

FUTURE PRODUCTS. The Company continually evaluates opportunities to
expand its product offerings in the future to include other lines that would
complement its existing product.

DESIGN AND DEVELOPMENT

The Company's watch, accessory and apparel products are created and
developed by its in-house design staff in cooperation with various outside
sources, including its manufacturing sources and component suppliers. Product
design ideas are drawn from various sources and are reviewed and modified by the
design staff to ensure consistency with the Company's existing product offerings
and the themes and images that it associates with its products. Senior
management is actively involved in the design process.

In order to respond effectively to changing consumer preferences, the
Company attempts to stay abreast of emerging lifestyle and fashion trends
affecting accessories and apparel. In addition, the Company attempts to take
advantage of the constant flow of information from the Company's customers
regarding the retail performance of its products. The Company reviews weekly
sales reports provided by a substantial number of the Company's customers
containing information with respect to sales and inventories by product category
and style. Once a trend in the retail performance of a product category or style
has been identified, the design and marketing staffs review their product design
decisions to ensure that key features of successful products are incorporated
into future designs. Other factors having an influence on the design process
include the availability of components, the capabilities of the factories that
will manufacture the products and the anticipated retail prices and profit
margins for the products.

-9-

The Company differentiates its products from those of its competitors
principally by incorporating into its product designs innovations in fashion
details, including variations in the treatment of dials, crystals, cases, straps
and bracelets for the Company's watches, and details and treatments in its other
accessories, and through unique product packaging for its apparel products. In
certain instances, the Company believes that such innovations have allowed it to
achieve significant improvements in consumer acceptance of its product offerings
with only nominal increases in manufacturing costs. The Company believes that
the substantial experience of its design staff will assist it in maintaining its
current leadership position in watch design and in expanding the scope of its
product offerings.

MARKETING AND PROMOTION

The Company's current FOSSIL brand advertising themes aim at evoking
nostalgia for the simpler values and more optimistic outlook of the 1950s
through the use of images of cars, trains, airliners and consumer products that
reflect the classic American tastes of the period. These images are carefully
coordinated in order to convey the flair for fun, fashion and humor that the
Company associates with its products. The Company's nostalgic "America in the
1950s" tin packaging concept for many of its watch products and certain of its
accessories is an example of these marketing themes. The tins have become a
signature piece to the FOSSIL image and have become popular with collectors.

The Company participates in cooperative advertising programs with its
major retail customers, whereby it shares the cost of certain of their
advertising and promotional expenses. An important aspect of the marketing
process involves the use of in-store visual support and other merchandising
materials, including packages, signs, posters and fixtures. Through the use of
these materials, the Company attempts to differentiate the space used to sell
its products from other areas of its customers' stores. In addition, the Company
frequently offers promotional gifts, such as T-shirts and caps, to consumers who
purchase its products. The Company also provides its customers with a large
number of preprinted, customized advertising inserts and from time to time
stages promotional events designed to focus public attention on its products.

The Company's in-house advertising department designs, develops and
implements all aspects of the packaging, advertising, marketing and sales
promotion of the Company's products. The advertising staff uses computer-aided
design techniques to generate the images presented on product packaging and
other advertising materials. The Company believes that the use of computers
encourages greater creativity and reduces the time and cost required to
incorporate new themes and ideas into effective product packaging and other
advertising materials. Senior management is involved in monitoring the Company's
advertising and promotional activities to ensure that themes and ideas are
communicated in a cohesive manner to the Company's target audience.

The Company advertises, markets and promotes its products to consumers
through a variety of media, including catalog inserts, billboards, print media
and the Internet. The Company has advertised from time to time with billboards
and other outdoor advertisements including bus panels in major metropolitan
areas. The Company periodically advertises the RELIC brand in certain national
fashion and consumer magazines such as TEEN, TWIST, MH18 AND MARIE CLAIRE. The
Company also periodically advertises in trade publications such as WOMEN'S WEAR
DAILY and DAILY NEWS RECORD.

SALES AND CUSTOMERS

The Company sells its products in approximately 17,000 retail locations
in the United States through a diversified distribution network that includes
approximately 5,000 department store doors, such as Federated/Macy's, May
Department Stores and Dillard's for its FOSSIL brand and JCPenney and Sears for
its RELIC brand, as well as approximately 12,000 specialty retail locations. The
Company also sells its watch and accessory products at Company-owned FOSSIL
retail stores located at retail sites in the United States and sells certain of
its products at Company-owned FOSSIL outlet stores located at major outlet malls
throughout the United States. The Company's apparel products are sold through
FOSSIL jeans wear stores and through the Company's website. The Company also
sells its products at retail locations in major airports in the United States,
on cruise ships and in independently-owned, authorized FOSSIL retail stores and
kiosks in certain international markets. The Company generally does not have
long-term contracts with any of its retail customers. All transactions between
the Company and its retail customers are conducted on the basis of purchase
orders, which generally require payment of amounts due to the Company on a net
30-day basis.

DEPARTMENT STORES. For fiscal years 2000, 1999 and 1998, domestic
department stores accounted for approximately 59.8%, 58.8%, and 60.8% of the
Company's net sales, respectively. In addition, in the same periods, the
Company's 10 largest customers represented approximately 40%, 41%, and 47% of
net sales, respectively. No customer accounted for more than 10% of the
Company's net sales in fiscal years 2000, 1999 and 1998. Certain of the
Company's customers are under common ownership. Sales to the department store
group under common ownership by Federated Department Stores accounted for
approximately 8.0%, 9.0%, and 10.0% of the Company's net sales in fiscal years
2000, 1999 and 1998, respectively. No other customer, when considered as a group
under common ownership, accounted for more than 10% of the Company's net sales
in fiscal years 2000, 1999 and 1998.

INTERNATIONAL SALES. The Company's products are sold to department
stores and specialty retail stores in over 80 countries worldwide through
Company-owned foreign sales subsidiaries and through a network of approximately
47 independent distributors. The Company's foreign operations include a presence
in Europe, South and Central America, the Caribbean, Canada, the Far East,
Australia and the Middle East. Foreign distributors generally purchase products
at uniform prices established by the Company for all international sales and
resell them to department stores and specialty retail stores. The Company
generally receives payment from its foreign distributors in United States
currency. During the fiscal years 2000, 1999 and 1998, international and export
sales accounted for approximately 30%, 31%, and 29% of net sales, respectively.

COMPANY-OWNED FOSSIL STORES. In 1995, the Company commenced operations
of FOSSIL outlet stores at selected major outlet malls throughout the United
States. The Company operated 39 outlet stores at the end of fiscal year 2000.
These stores, which operate under the FOSSIL name, enable the Company to
liquidate excess inventory and increase brand awareness. The Company's products
in such stores are generally sold at discounts from 25% to 50% off the suggested
retail price. The Company intends to open four additional outlet stores in 2001.

In 1996, the Company commenced operations of full priced FOSSIL retail
stores at some of the most prestigious retail malls in the United States in
order to broaden the recognition of the FOSSIL brand name. The Company currently
operates 32 retail stores in leading malls and retail locations throughout the
United States and two in the United Kingdom. These stores, which operate under
the FOSSIL name, carry a full assortment of FOSSIL merchandise which is
generally sold at the suggested retail price. The Company

-11-

intends to open two additional retail stores in 2001 offering accessories only.
During the fiscal years 2000, 1999 and 1998, Company Store sales accounted for
approximately 10%, 9%, and 9% of net sales, respectively.

In 2000, the Company began offering FOSSIL brand apparel through
specially designed Company-owned apparel stores. The Company currently operates
14 FOSSIL jeans wear stores in leading malls and retail locations throughout the
United States. The Company's apparel stores carry the full apparel line along
with an assortment of certain FOSSIL watch and accessory products. The Company
intends to open five additional apparel stores in 2001.

INTERNET SALES. In November 1996, the Company established a website at
www.fossil.com. In September 1999, the Company's website was redesigned with a
stronger emphasis on retail sales and order fulfillment. The Company offers
selected FOSSIL brand watches, sunglassses, leather goods, apparel and other
related products. These products are also available to consumers through
"storefronts" on America Online, Microsoft Network and Yahoo that are connected
to the Company's website. In addition to offering selected FOSSIL products, the
Company also provides Company news and information on the website. During 2000,
the Company launched a business-to-business site that allows the Company's
specialty retail accounts access to real-time inventory, account information and
automated order processing.

SALES PERSONNEL. The Company utilizes an in-house sales staff and, to a
lesser extent, independent sales representatives to promote the sale of the
Company's products to retail accounts. As of the end of fiscal year 2000, the
Company had 86 in-house sales and customer service employees and 16 independent
sales representatives. The Company's in-house sales personnel receive a salary
and, in some cases, a commission based on a percentage of gross sales
attributable to specified accounts. Independent sales representatives generally
do not sell competing product lines and are under contracts with the Company
that are generally terminable by either party upon 30 days' prior notice. These
independent contractors are compensated on a commission basis.

CUSTOMER SERVICE. During the past several years, the retail industry
has undergone significant consolidation. As a result of these developments,
department stores and other major retailers have generally become more dependent
on the resources and market expertise of their suppliers. The Company believes
that this dependence has created opportunities for suppliers that provide
superior service to their retail customers and are able to manage the retail
sales process effectively. In order to take advantage of the opportunities
presented by this increasing dependence, the Company has developed an approach
to managing the retail sales process that involves monitoring its customers'
sales and inventories by product category and style, primarily through EDI, and
assisting in the conception, development and implementation of their marketing
programs. For example, the Company reviews weekly selling reports prepared by
certain of its principal customers and has established an active EDI program
with certain of its customers. The Company also places significant emphasis on
the establishment of cooperative advertising programs with its major retail
customers. The Company believes that its management of the retail sales process
has resulted in close relationships with its principal customers, often allowing
it to influence the mix, quantity and timing of their purchasing decisions.

The Company believes that its sales approach achieves high retail
turnover in its products, which can result in attractive profit margins for its
retail customers. The Company believes that the resulting profit margins for its
retail customers encourage them to devote greater selling space to its products
within their stores and enable the Company to work closely with buyers in
determining the mix of products any store should carry. In addition, the Company
believes that the buyers' familiarity with the Company's sales approach has and
should continue to facilitate the introduction of new products through its
existing distribution network.

-12-

The Company permits the return of damaged or defective products. In
addition, although it has no obligation to do so, the Company accepts limited
amounts of product returns from its customers in certain other instances.
Accordingly, the Company provides allowances for the estimated amount of product
returns. The allowances for product returns as of the end of fiscal years 2000,
1999 and 1998 were $21.2 million, $17.7 million, and $14.0 million respectively.
Since 1990, the Company has not experienced any returns in excess of the
aggregate allowances therefor.

BACKLOG

It is the practice of a substantial number of the Company's customers
not to confirm orders by delivering a formal purchase order until a relatively
short time prior to the shipment of goods. As a result, the amount of unfilled
customer orders includes confirmed orders and orders that the Company believes
will be confirmed by delivery of a formal purchase order. A majority of such
amounts represent orders that have been confirmed. The remainder of such amounts
represent orders that the Company believes, based on industry practice and prior
experience, will be confirmed in the ordinary course of business. The Company's
backlog at a particular time is affected by a number of factors, including
seasonality and the scheduling of the manufacture and shipment of products.
Accordingly, a comparison of backlog from period to period is not necessarily
meaningful and may not be indicative of eventual actual shipments. For fiscal
year 2000, the Company had unfilled customer orders of approximately $63.5
million compared to $41.4 million and $22.2 million for fiscal years 1999 and
1998, respectively.

MANUFACTURING

The Company's products are manufactured to its specifications by
independent contractors and by companies in which the Company holds a majority
interest. Substantially all of the Company's watches are manufactured by
approximately 38 factories located primarily in Hong Kong and China, and to a
lesser extent in Japan. The Company believes that its policy of outsourcing
products allows it to achieve increased production flexibility while avoiding
significant capital expenditures, build-ups of work-in-process inventory and the
costs of managing a substantial production work force.

The principal components used in the manufacture of the Company's
watches are cases, crystals, dials, movements, bracelets and straps. These
components are obtained by the Company's manufacturing sources from a large
number of suppliers located principally in Hong Kong, Japan, China, Taiwan,
Italy and Korea. The Company estimates that the majority of the movements used
in the manufacture of the Company's watches are supplied by two principal
vendors. No other single component supplier accounted for more than 10% of
component supplies in 2000. Although the Company does not normally engage in
direct transactions with component suppliers, in some cases it actively reviews
the performance of such suppliers and makes recommendations to its manufacturing
sources regarding the sourcing of components. The Company does not believe that
its business is materially dependent on any single component supplier.

The Company believes that it has established and maintains close
relationships with a number of watch manufacturers located in Hong Kong and
Japan. In 2000, four separate watch manufacturers in which the Company holds a
majority interest, each accounted for 10% or more of the Company's watch
supplies. The loss of any one of these manufacturers could temporarily disrupt
shipments of certain of the Company's watches. However, as a result of the
number of suppliers from which the Company purchases its watches, the Company
believes that it could arrange for the shipment of goods from alternative
sources within approximately 30 days on terms that are not materially different
from those currently available to the Company. Accordingly, the Company does not
believe that the loss of any single supplier would have a

-13-

material adverse effect on the Company's business. In general, however, the
future success of the Company will depend upon its ability to maintain close
relationships with its current suppliers and to develop long-term relationships
with other suppliers that satisfy the Company's requirements for price and
production flexibility.

The Company's products are manufactured according to plans that reflect
management's estimates of product performance based on recent sales results,
current economic conditions and prior experience with manufacturing sources. The
average lead time from the commitment to purchase products through the
production and shipment thereof ranges from two to three months in the case of
watches, from three to six months in the case of sunglasses, from three to four
months in the case of leather goods and from two to four months for apparel
items. The Company believes that the close relationships that it has established
and maintains with its principal manufacturing sources constitute a significant
competitive advantage and allow it to quickly and efficiently introduce
innovative product designs and alter production in response to the retail
performance of its products.

QUALITY CONTROL

The Company's quality control program attempts to ensure that its
products meet the standards established by its design staff. Samples of products
are inspected by the Company prior to the placement of orders with manufacturing
sources to ensure compliance with its specifications. The operations of the
Company's manufacturing sources located in Hong Kong are monitored on a periodic
basis by Fossil (East). Substantially all of the Company's watches and certain
of its other accessories are inspected by personnel of Fossil East or by the
manufacturer prior to shipment to the Company. In addition, the Company performs
quality control checks on its products upon receipt at the Company's facility.

DISTRIBUTION

Upon completion of manufacturing, the Company's products are shipped to
its warehousing and distribution centers in Richardson, Texas; Italy; Japan;
Hong Kong; the United Kingdom and Germany from which they are shipped to
customers in selected markets. Since July 1997, the Company has owned and
operated a warehouse and distribution facility in Richardson, Texas, adjacent to
the Company's headquarters, to maximize the Company's inventory management and
distribution capabilities. The Company also leases a warehouse and distribution
center in Garland, Texas. The Company is planning to acquire a 500,000 square
foot warehouse and distribution facitlity in the Dallas, Texas area that will
allow it to centralize the facilities currently being utilized for such
purposes. This facility is scheduled for completion in late 2001 or early 2002.

The Company's warehouse and distribution facility in Richardson, Texas
is operated in a special purpose subzone established by the United States
Department of Commerce Foreign Trade Zone Board. As a result of the
establishment of the subzone, the Company enjoys certain economic and
operational advantages: (i) the Company may not have to pay duty on imported
merchandise until it leaves the subzone and enters the United States market,
(ii) the Company does not pay any United States duty on merchandise if the
imported merchandise is subsequently re-exported, and (iii) the Company does not
pay local property tax on inventory located within the subzone.

MANAGEMENT INFORMATION SYSTEMS

INVENTORY CONTROL. The Company maintains inventory control systems at
its facilities that enable it to track each item of merchandise from receipt
from its manufacturing sources, through shipment to its customers. To facilitate
this tracking, a significant number of products sold by the Company are
pre-ticketed and bar coded prior to shipment to its retail customers. The
Company's inventory control systems report shipping, sales and individual SKU
level inventory information. The Company manages the retail sales process by
monitoring customer sales and inventory levels by product category and style,
primarily through EDI. The Company believes that its distribution capabilities
enable it to reduce inventory risk and increase flexibility in responding to the
delivery requirements of its customers. The Company's management believes that
its EDI efforts will continue to grow in the future as customers focus further
on increasing operating efficiencies. In addition, the Company maintains systems
that are designed to track inventory movement through the FOSSIL retail and
outlet stores. Detailed sales transaction records are accumulated on each
store's point-of-sale system and polled nightly by the Company.

WARRANTY AND REPAIR

The Company's FOSSIL watch products are covered by a limited warranty
against defects in materials or workmanship for a period of 11 years from the
date of purchase. The Company's RELIC watch products are covered by a comparable
12 year warranty. The Company's licensed watch products generally are covered by
one (1) year limited warranty. The Company's sunglass line is covered by a one
(1) year limited warranty against defects in materials or workmanship. Defective
products returned by consumers are processed at the Company's warehousing and
distribution centers. In most cases, defective products under warranty are
repaired by the Company's personnel. Products under warranty that cannot be
repaired in a cost-effective manner are replaced by the Company at no cost to
the customer. The Company also performs watch repair services on behalf of
certain of its private label customers.

GOVERNMENTAL REGULATIONS

IMPORTS AND IMPORT RESTRICTIONS. Most of the Company's products are
manufactured overseas. As a result, the United States and the countries in which
the Company's products are manufactured or sold may from time to time modify
existing or impose new quotas, duties, tariffs or other restrictions in a manner
that adversely affects the Company. For example, the Company's products imported
to the United States are subject to United States customs duties and, in the
ordinary course of its business, the Company may from time to time be subject to
claims by the United States Customs Service for duties and other charges.
Factors which may influence the modification or imposition of these restrictions
include the determination by the United States Trade Representative that a
country has denied adequate intellectual property rights or fair and equitable
market access to United States firms that rely on intellectual property, trade
disputes between the United States and a country that leads to withdrawal of
"most favored nation" status for that country and economic and political changes
within a country that are viewed unfavorably by the government of the United
States. The Company cannot predict the effect, if any, these events would have
on its operations, especially in light of the concentration of its manufacturing
operations in Hong Kong and China.

GENERAL. The Company's sunglass products are subject to regulation by
the United States Food and Drug Administration as medical devices. The Company
does not believe that compliance with such regulations is material to its
operations. In addition, the Company is subject to various state and federal
regulations generally applicable to similar businesses.

-15-

INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY

TRADEMARKS. The Company has registered the FOSSIL and RELIC trademarks
for use on the Company's watches, leather goods, apparel and other fashion
accessories. The Company has also registered or applied for the registration of
certain other marks used by the Company in conjunction with the sale and
marketing of its products and services. In addition, the Company has registered
certain of its trademarks, including FOSSIL and RELIC, in certain foreign
countries, including a number of countries located in Europe, the Far East, the
Middle East, South America and Central America. The Company also has certain
trade dress rights in, and has registered, the distinctive rectangular tins in
which the Company packages certain of its FOSSIL watch products.

PATENTS. The Company has been granted, and has pending, various United
States and international design and utility patents related to its BIG TIC watch
line. The Company also has been granted, and has pending, various United States
patents related to certain of its other products.

The Company regards its trademarks, trade dress and patents as valuable
assets and believes that they have significant value in the marketing of its
products. The Company intends to protect its intellectual property rights
vigorously against infringement.

COMPETITION

There is intense competition in each of the businesses in which the
Company competes. The Company's watch business competes with a number of
established manufacturers, importers and distributors such as Guess? Anne Klein
II, Kenneth Cole and Swatch. In addition, the Company's leather goods, sunglass
and apparel businesses compete with a large number of established companies that
have significantly greater experience than the Company in designing, developing,
marketing and distributing such products. In all of its businesses, the Company
competes with numerous manufacturers, importers and distributors who have
significantly greater financial, distribution, advertising and marketing
resources than the Company. The Company's competitors include distributors that
import watches, accessories and apparel from abroad, domestic companies that
have established foreign manufacturing relationships and companies that produce
accessories and apparel domestically.

The Company competes primarily on the basis of style, price, value,
quality, brand name, advertising, marketing and distribution. In addition, the
Company believes that its ability to identify and respond to changing fashion
trends and consumer preferences, to maintain existing relationships and develop
new relationships with manufacturing sources, to deliver quality merchandise in
a timely manner and to manage the retail sales process are important factors in
its ability to compete.

The Company considers that the risk of significant new competitors is
mitigated to some extent by barriers to entry such as high startup costs and the
development of long-term relationships with customers and manufacturing sources.
During the past few years, it has been the Company's experience that better
department stores and other major retailers have been increasingly unwilling to
source products from suppliers who are not well capitalized or do not have a
demonstrated ability to deliver quality merchandise in a timely manner. There
can be no assurance, however, that significant new competitors will not emerge
in the future.

-16-

EMPLOYEES

As of the end of fiscal year 2000, the Company (excluding the Company's
foreign subsidiaries) had 2,044 full-time employees, including 214 in executive

control, distribution, clerical and other office positions. As of the end of
fiscal year 2000, the Company's foreign operating subsidiaries had 398 full-time
employees, including 49 in managerial positions.

with its employees. The Company believes that its relations with its employees
are generally good.

for minimum annual rentals above specified net sales amounts and for the payment
of additional rent based on a percentage of sales ranging from 6% to 9%. The

The Company believes that its existing facilities are well maintained
and in good operating condition. The Company is planning to acquire a 500,000
square foot warehouse and distribution facitlity in the Dallas, Texas area that
will allow it to centralize the facilities currently being utilized for such
purposes. This facility is scheduled for completion in late 2001 or early 2002.
