                                       DAN RIVER INC.
                    NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


1.    Basis of Presentation

      The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements
      include the accounts of Dan River Inc. and its wholly-owned
      subsidiaries, (collectively, the "Company").  In the opinion of
      management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals)
      considered necessary for a fair presentation of results for the interim
      periods presented have been included.  Interim results are not
      necessarily indicative of results for a full year.  For further
      information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and notes
      thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the
      year ended December 29, 2001.

2.    Adoption of New Accounting Standards

      Effective as of the beginning of fiscal 2002, the Company adopted SFAS
      No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets."  This new standard
      prohibits the amortization of goodwill and intangible assets with
      indefinite useful lives.  Instead these assets must be tested at least
      annually for impairment.  In accordance with SFAS No. 142 the Company
      will complete a test in the second quarter of fiscal 2002 which will
      determine whether potential impairment of goodwill existed at the
      beginning of the year.  If required, a second test, to determine the
      amount of impairment, must be completed prior to the end of fiscal 2002.
      Any impairment charge resulting from these transitional tests will be
      reflected as the cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle
      in fiscal 2002.

      Under SFAS No. 142, prior period amounts are not restated.  Had SFAS No.
      142 been in effect for the quarter ended March 31, 2001, the net loss,
      adjusted for the exclusion of goodwill amortization, would have been
      $5,750,000 or $0.26 per share.

      Also as of the beginning of fiscal 2002, the Company adopted SFAS No.
      144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets,"
      which supercedes SFAS No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-
      Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of."  Adoption of
      the new standard did not materially effect the Company's financial
      position or results of operations.

4.    Income Taxes

      The income tax provision for the first quarter of fiscal 2002 includes a
      one-time increase to income tax expense of $2,800,000 attributable to
      the Job Creation and Worker Assistance Act of 2002, enacted on March 9,
      2002.  The Act changed the period for carrying back taxable losses
      generated in fiscal 2001 from 2 to 5 years, which will allow the Company
      to receive an estimated $5,700,000 refund of taxes.  However, the
      carryback will also free up investment credits that had previously
      offset tax in the carryback years.  A $2,800,000 tax provision has been
      recorded in the first quarter of fiscal 2002, representing the estimated
      amount of these freed up credits that expire during the carryback period
      without being utilized.  Excluding this one-time adjustment, the tax
      benefit for the first quarter of fiscal 2002 was $1,050,000, or 31.0% of
      the pretax loss.

5.    Reserves for Exit Costs

      In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2001 the Company recorded a $4,722,000
      pre-tax charge relating to a plant consolidation program announced by
      the Company in December 2001.  The charge consisted of a $3,292,000 non-
      cash writedown of fixed assets, $1,324,000 for severance and benefits
      associated with the termination of approximately 380 employees, and
      other exit costs of $107,000.  The Company expects to complete all
      significant aspects of the consolidation of operations during the second
      quarter of fiscal 2002 and anticipates that the payout of severance and
      benefits will be substantially completed by the end of the fiscal year.
      Following is a summary of the reserve account activity during the first
      quarter of fiscal 2002 related to the consolidation (in thousands):

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 fiscal 2002 were $158.4 million, a
decrease of $5.6 million or 3.4% from the first quarter of fiscal 2001.

Home Fashions

Net sales of home fashions products were $116.0 million for the first quarter
of fiscal 2002, a decrease of $4.5 million or 3.8% from the first quarter of
fiscal 2001.  The decrease reflects the generally soft demand for our adult
bedding products at the beginning of fiscal 2002.  Shipments to all retail
channels picked up significantly in the last several weeks of the quarter,
during which sales of home fashions products exceeded the levels of a year
earlier.

Apparel Fabrics

Net sales of apparel fabrics for the first quarter of fiscal 2002 were $31.9
million, a slight decrease from the $32.2 million in sales reported for the
first quarter of fiscal 2001.  Sales of sportswear fabrics, primarily pant
fabrics, increased by $3.8 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2002,
almost offsetting the declines in sales of dress shirting and military
uniform fabrics.

Engineered Products

Net sales of engineered products for the first quarter of fiscal 2002 were
$10.5 million, a decrease of $0.8 million or 7.0% from the first quarter of
fiscal 2001.  Most of the decline is attributable to lower industrial fabric
sales, which reflects continuing price pressure from domestic and offshore
competition, and soft demand for conveyor belt fabric.

SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES

Selling, general and administrative expenses were $17.8 million for the first
quarter of fiscal 2002 (11.2% of net sales), an increase of $1.0 million or
5.9% from $16.8 million (10.3% of net sales) for the first quarter of fiscal
2001.  All of the increase is due to higher bad debt expense in the first
quarter of fiscal 2002, which included a $1.4 million provision attributable
to the January, 2002 Chapter 11 filing of Kmart Corporation.

OPERATING INCOME

Total operating income was $3.9 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2002,
compared to an operating loss of $1.6 million for the first quarter of fiscal
2001.

      Segment Operating Income:

Operating income for the home fashions segment was $5.3 million for the first
quarter of fiscal 2002, compared to $0.5 million in the first quarter of the
prior year.  Operating margins were unusually low in the first quarter of
fiscal 2001 due to a combination of factors, including promotional pricing
resulting from our focus on inventory reduction, high energy and raw material
costs, and the effects of production curtailments.  The improved
profitability in the first quarter of fiscal 2002 is mostly attributable to
improved manufacturing performance, offset in part by $1.4 million in bad
debt expense attributable to Kmart Corporation's Chapter 11 filing.

The apparel fabrics segment generated a $1.6 million operating loss for the
first quarter of fiscal 2002, compared to a $0.5 million operating loss for
the first quarter of fiscal 2001.  The fiscal 2002 results include a $0.6
million operating loss from our shirt manufacturing subsidiary in Mexico.
The poor operating performance for both periods reflects low sales volumes, a
competitive pricing environment and high per-unit manufacturing costs
resulting from reduced running schedules.

The engineered products segment generated a $0.3 million operating loss in
the first quarter of fiscal 2002, compared to a $0.4 million operating loss
in the first quarter of fiscal 2001.  The lack of profitability for both
periods was caused by low sales volume and poor manufacturing performance.

      Corporate Items:

Amortization of goodwill was $0.8 million in the first quarter of fiscal
2001.  In accordance with SFAS No. 142, beginning in the first quarter of
fiscal 2002 we discontinued the amortization of goodwill.

Other items not allocated to segments totaled $0.5 million (income) in the
first quarter of fiscal 2002 compared to $0.4 million (expense) in the first
quarter of fiscal 2001.  The fiscal 2002 amount includes income items of $0.2
million related to a litigation settlement and $0.5 million from a net
decrease in intersegment profits remaining in inventory.

INTEREST EXPENSE

Interest expense was $7.4 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2002, down
$1.3 million from the first quarter of fiscal 2001.  The decrease reflects
both lower debt levels and lower average interest rates.

INCOME TAX PROVISION

We recorded a $1.8 million income tax provision in the first quarter of
fiscal 2002, which included a one-time increase to income tax expense of $2.8
million attributable to the Job Creation and Worker Assistance Act of 2002,
enacted on March 9, 2002.  The Act changed the period for carrying back
taxable losses generated in fiscal 2001 from 2 to 5 years, which will allow
us to receive an estimated $5.7 million refund of taxes.  However, the
carryback will also free up investment credits that had previously offset tax
in the carryback years.  A $2.8 million tax provision has been recorded in
the first quarter of fiscal 2002, representing the estimated amount of these
freed up credits that expire during the carryback period without being
utilized.

Excluding the one-time tax adjustment discussed above, the tax benefit for
the first quarter of fiscal 2002 was $1.1 million, or 31.0% of the pretax
loss, compared to $3.6 million, or 35.6% of the pretax loss, for the first
quarter of fiscal 2001.  The low effective rate in fiscal 2002 is mostly
attributable to losses from our Mexican operations for which no tax benefits
were provided.  The effect of nondeductible goodwill amortization decreased
the income tax benefit for the first quarter of fiscal 2001 by 2.7%.

NET INCOME AND EARNINGS PER SHARE

The net loss for the first quarter of fiscal 2002 was $5.1 million or $0.24
per share compared to a net loss of $6.5 million or $0.30 per share for the
first quarter of fiscal 2001.  Results for the first quarter of fiscal 2002
were affected by the following one-time or unusual items (discussed above):

      a $2.8 million income tax provision related to the Job Creation and
      Worker Assistance Act of 2002; and

      $1.4 million in bad debt expense ($0.8 million after tax) relating to
      Kmart Corporation's bankruptcy filing.

Together the above items increased the net loss for the first quarter of
fiscal 2002 by $3.6 million or $0.17 per share.


     13


The net loss for the first quarter of fiscal 2001 included goodwill
amortization of $0.8 million or $0.04 per share.  In accordance with SFAS No.
142, goodwill amortization was discontinued at the beginning of fiscal 2002.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

General

We generally rely on internally generated cash flow, supplemented by
borrowings under our working capital line of credit, to meet debt service
requirements, capital expenditures, and working capital needs.  We had a debt
to total capital ratio of 56.6% at March 30, 2002.

Credit Facilities

We maintain a credit facility comprised of a term loan and a secured working
capital line of credit.  This credit facility is secured by our accounts
receivable, inventories and real and personal property. The credit facility
bears interest at the Base Rate plus applicable percentage, as defined (7.75%
as of May 6, 2002) or LIBOR plus applicable percentage (6.09% as of May 6,
2002), for periods of one, two, three or six months, at our option.

The working capital line has a borrowing base and is non-amortizing. Any
amounts outstanding are due at the final maturity of September 30, 2003. As
of March 30, 2002, $107.0 million was used and $36.7 million was unused and
available for borrowing. The term loan had an outstanding principal balance
of $82.4 million at March 30, 2002. Scheduled amortization payments for
fiscal 2002 on the term loan total $25.0 million, $2.5 million of which was
paid in the first quarter.

The borrowing base is determined weekly by evaluation of the eligible
inventories and accounts receivable and is limited to a fixed amount each
month, which reaches $150 million in June of 2002. Interest payments are
required to be made on a monthly basis for all outstanding loans and we are
required to meet a minimum cumulative EBITDA covenant (as defined) and an
interest coverage ratio covenant (as defined) on a monthly basis.

In addition to the covenants described above, the credit facility contains
limitations on mergers and consolidations, affiliated transactions, incurring
liens, disposal of assets and investments. An event of default under the
credit facility includes change of control (as defined in the credit
facility) as well as non-compliance with certain other provisions.

Working Capital

Net cash generated from operating activities in the three months ended March
30, 2002 was $2.2 million. The net loss, adjusted for noncash expense items,
net, generated $12.4 million of cash.  This was offset by a $10.2 million use
of cash by operating assets and liabilities, comprised of a $5.3 million use
from operating working capital (accounts receivable - $26.9 million use,
inventories - $14.7 million source, and accounts payable and accrued expenses
- - $6.8 million source) and a $4.9 million use of cash for prepaid expenses
and other assets and other liabilities.


     14


In the first quarter of fiscal 2001, net cash generated from operating
activities was $22.5 million. The net loss for that period, adjusted for
noncash expense items, net, generated $0.8 million of cash. An additional
$21.7 million was generated by operating assets and liabilities, comprised of
a $20.2 million source from operating working capital (accounts receivable -
$4.2 million use, inventories - $14.6 million source, and accounts payable
and accrued expenses - $9.7 million source) and a $1.5 million source of cash
for prepaid expenses and other assets and other liabilities.

Investing Activities

During the first three months of fiscal 2002, we purchased $2.6 million in
equipment and manufacturing improvements.
