                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 
BASIS OF PRESENTATION
 
     The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been
prepared by Movado Group, Inc. (the "Company") in a manner consistent with that
used in the preparation of the financial statements included in the Company's
fiscal 1997 Annual Report filed on Form 10-K. In the opinion of management, the
accompanying financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting of only
normal and recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of the
financial position and results of operations for the periods presented. These
consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the
aforementioned annual report.
 
NOTE 1 -- STOCK SPLIT
 
     On April 3, 1997, the Company's Board of Directors approved a five-for-four
stock split of the Company's Common and Class A Common Stock. The stock split
became effective April 21, 1997. The accompanying financial statements contained
in this report have been retroactively adjusted to reflect the impact of the
stock split.
 
NOTE 2 -- RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
 
     In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued
Statement No. 128, Earnings Per Share, which specifies the computation,
presentation and disclosure requirements for earnings per share. Management of
the Company believes that adoption of Statement No. 128 which is required for
the fiscal year ending January 31, 1998, will not have a material impact on the
Company's earnings per share calculation.

capital lines with its domestic bank group to provide for a three year $90.0
million unsecured revolving line of credit and $16.6 million of uncommitted

ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS
 
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
 
  Forward Looking Statements
 
     Statements included under Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations, in this report, as well as statements in
future filings by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission
("SEC"), in the Company's press releases and oral statements made by or with the
approval of an authorized executive officer of the Company, which are not
historical in nature, are intended to be, and are hereby identified as, "forward
looking statements" for purposes of the safe harbor provided by Section 21E of
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The Company cautions readers that forward
looking statements include, without limitation, those relating to the Company's
future business prospects, revenues, working capital, liquidity, capital needs,
plans for future operations, effective tax rates, margins, interest costs, and
income, as well as assumptions relating to the foregoing. Forward looking
statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties, some of which cannot
be predicted or quantified. Actual results and future events could differ
materially from those indicated in the forward looking statements due to several
important factors herein identified, among others, and other risks and factors
identified from time to time in the Company's reports filed with the SEC
including, without limitation, the following: general economic and business
conditions which may impact disposable income of consumers, competitive products
and pricing, ability to enforce intellectual property rights, and success of
hedging strategies in respect of currency exchange rate fluctuations.
 
     Six months ended July 31, 1997 compared to six months ended July 31, 1996
 
     Net Sales.  Net sales increased 12.4% to $91.9 million from $81.8 million
for the six months ended July 31, 1997 and July 31, 1996, respectively. The
increase was attributable to a 10.0% increase in domestic sales and a 22.5%
increase in international sales. The growth of the domestic sales reflected
increases in the Company's Concord and Movado lines. The growth in international
sales relates to growth in unit sales volumes for Concord and Movado in the
Middle East, Concord in the Far East and for Movado in the Caribbean. The growth
in both domestic and international sales reflect new product introductions in
fiscal 1997 and 1998 for Concord which introduced the Veneto and LaScala lines,
and Movado which introduced the Vizio line. The increase in sales was partially
offset by decreases in sales of Piaget, Corum and ESQ brands. The sales decrease
in Piaget is due to the planned reduction in points of sale in order to create
greater exclusivity in the retail channel of the brand. The decrease in ESQ
sales is predominantly due to the opening orders for the expansion of the
brand's retail network, which occurred during the first half of the prior year.
 
     Gross Margins.  Gross profit for the six months ended July 31, 1997 was
$52.1 million (56.7% of net sales) as compared to $45.0 million (55.0% of net
sales) for the comparable prior year period. Margins were favorably impacted by
sales mix, particularly an increase in the proportion of sales of the Company's
higher

                               MOVADO GROUP, INC.
 
margin Concord and Movado brands to total sales. The Company's margin also
benefited from increases in the U.S. dollar against the Swiss Franc which
occurred late in the previous year.
 
     Operating Expenses.  Operating expenses increased 14.4% for the six months
ended July 31, 1997 to 51.2% of net sales from 50.3% of net sales for the
comparable prior year period. The increase in operating expenses occurred
primarily from planned increases in marketing and advertising particularly in
the Company's Concord, Movado and ESQ brands. The increases in advertising and
marketing were partially offset by decreases in non-marketing related costs.
 
     Interest Expense.  Net interest expense, which consists primarily of
interest on the Company's $40,000,000 of 6.56% Senior Notes and borrowings
against its working capital and revolving lines of credit, was $2.3 million for
the six months ended July 31, 1997 as compared to $2.1 million for the
comparable prior year period. The higher interest expense is mainly due to
higher average borrowings for the six months ended July 31, 1997 as compared to
the comparable prior year period.
 
     Income Taxes.  The Company recorded a provision for income taxes of
$699,000 for the six months ended July 31, 1997 as compared to a provision of
$519,000 for the comparable prior year period. Taxes were provided at a 25%
effective rate which the Company believes will approximate the effective annual
rate for fiscal 1998; however, there can be no assurance of this as it is
dependent on a number of factors including: mix of foreign to domestic earnings,
local statutory tax rates and utilization of net operating losses. The 25%
effective rate differs from the United States statutory rate due to the mix of
earnings between the Company's U.S. and international operations, the most
significant of which are located in Switzerland. The Company's international
operations are generally subject to tax rates that are significantly lower than
U.S. statutory rates.
 
     Three months ended July 31, 1997 compared to three months ended July 31,
1996
 
     Net Sales.  Net sales increased 12.3% to $57.0 million from $50.8 million
for the three months ended July 31, 1997 and July 31, 1996, respectively.
Domestic sales increased 8.6% which was predominantly due to a higher demand for
the Company's Concord and Movado brands. International sales increased 29.2%.
The increase in international sales is predominately due to increased sales in
the Caribbean, Far East and Middle East. The growth in both domestic and
international sales reflect new product introductions in fiscal 1997 and 1998
for Concord which introduced the Veneto and LaScala lines, and Movado which
introduced the Vizio line. The increase in sales was partially offset by
decreases in sales of Piaget, Corum and ESQ brands. The sales decrease in Piaget
is due to the planned reduction in points of sale in order to create greater
exclusiveness in the retail channel of the brand. The sales decrease in ESQ is
predominately due to the opening orders for the expansion of the brand's retail
network, which occurred during the first half of the prior year.
 
     Gross Margins.  Gross profit for the three months ended July 31, 1997 was
$32.2 million (56.5% of net sales) as compared to $27.6 million (54.4% of net
sales) for the comparable prior year period. The increase in margin is mainly
attributable to the Company continuing to experience a shift in overall sales
mix toward its higher margin Movado and Concord brands. The Company's margin
also benefited from increases in the U.S. dollar against the Swiss Franc which
occurred late in the previous year.
 
     Operating Expenses.  Operating expenses increased 15.8% for the three
months ended July 31, 1997 to 48.6% of net sales from 47.2% of net sales for the
comparable prior year period. The increase in operating expenses occurred
primarily from planned increases in marketing and advertising particularly in
the Company's Concord, Movado and ESQ brands. The increases in advertising and
marketing were partially offset by decreases in non-marketing related costs.
 
     Interest Expense.  Net interest expense, which consists primarily of
interest on the Company's $40,000,000 of 6.56% Senior Notes and borrowings
against its working capital and revolving lines of credit, was $1.4 million and
$1.3 million for the three months ended July 31, 1997 and 1996, respectively.
The higher interest expense is predominantly due to higher average borrowings
during the second quarter.

                               MOVADO GROUP, INC.
 
     Income Taxes.  The Company recorded a provision for income taxes of
$786,000 for the three months ended July 31, 1997 as compared to a provision of
$722,000 for the comparable prior year period. Taxes were provided at a 25%
effective rate which the Company believes will approximate the effective annual
rate for fiscal 1998; however, there can be no assurance of this as it is
dependent on a number of factors including: mix of foreign to domestic earnings,
local statutory tax rates and utilization of net operating losses. The 25%
effective rate differs from the United States statutory rate due to the mix of
earnings between the Company's U.S. and international operations, the most
significant of which are located in Switzerland. The Company's international
operations are generally subject to tax rates that are significantly lower than
U.S. statutory rates.
 
  Liquidity and Capital Resources
 
     The Company's liquidity needs have been, and are expected to remain,
primarily a function of its seasonal working capital requirements which have
increased due to significant growth in domestic sales over the two previous
years. The Company's business is not capital intensive and liquidity needs for
capital investments have not been significant in relation to the Company's
overall financing requirements.
 
     The Company has met its liquidity needs primarily through funds from
operations and bank borrowings under working capital lines of credit with
domestic and Swiss banks. The Company has also entered into a revolving credit
agreement with its domestic banks. Funds available under this agreement are in
addition to the Company's working capital lines. The Company's future
requirements for capital will relate not only to working capital requirements
for the expected continued growth of its existing brands, domestically and
internationally, but also funding new lines of business including the Spring
1998 launch of the Company's new Coach watch line and product line extensions
and retail boutiques for the Movado brand. In addition, the Company is required
to make a $5 million sinking fund payment on February 2, 1998 in connection with
its $40 million 6.56% Senior Notes.
 
     In order to meet the increase in working capital requirements, the Company
amended its revolving credit and working capital lines with its domestic bank
group to provide for a three year $90.0 million unsecured revolving line of
credit and $16.6 million of uncommitted working capital lines of credit. These
new facilities replace the $20.0 million revolving line of credit and $35.0
million domestic working capital lines of credit and certain of the Company's
Swiss working capital lines. At July 31, 1997, the Company had an outstanding
balance of $52.6 million against these facilities.
 
     The Company's debt to total capitalization ratio was 48.0% at July 31,
1997, as compared to 41.2% at July 31, 1996. The increase is predominantly due
to a $19.4 million decline in the cumulative translation adjustment due to the
strength of the U.S. dollar. In addition, the Company's seasonal borrowings
increased $12.9 million under its working capital credit agreements to fund the
growth in its business. Debt to total capitalization at January 31, 1997 was
33.7%. The increase in debt to total capitalization from January 31, 1997 is
predominantly due to an increase in loans payable to banks due to increases in
seasonal working capital requirements.
 
     The Company's net working capital, consisting primarily of trade
receivables and inventories, amounted to $120.0 million at July 31, 1997, $132.6
million at July 31, 1996 and $126.7 million at January 31, 1997. The decrease in
the working capital from July 31, 1996 is primarily the result of the
reclassification of $5.0 million of the Company's long-term senior debt which is
payable February 2, 1998. The decrease in working capital from January 31, 1997
is primarily the result of an increase in liabilities, especially loans payable
to banks, in connection with seasonal working capital requirements.
 
     Accounts receivable at July 31, 1997 were $89.5 million as compared to
$79.3 million at July 31, 1996 and $75.7 million at January 31, 1997. The
increase in the receivables was primarily the result of growth in the Company's
business.
 
     Inventories at July 31, 1997 were $105.8 million as compared to $108.6
million at July 31, 1996 and $87.2 million at January 31, 1997. The inventory
balance at July 31, 1997 was relatively flat as compared to July 31,
 
                                        9

                               MOVADO GROUP, INC.
 
1996. The increase in inventories from January 31, 1997 reflects the seasonal
build, as well as the expansion of the Company's sales base and product line.
 
     The Company's fiscal 1998 year-to-date capital expenditures approximate
$2.6 million compared to $2.3 million through July 31, 1996. Expenditures were
primarily related to improvements in the Company's management and sales
management information systems and costs incurred in connection with the
expansion of domestic distribution operations. The Company expects its annual
capital expenditures in fiscal year 1998 will exceed the average levels
experienced over the last three fiscal years due to planned improvements in
management information systems, expansion of its retail store network and the
expansion of distribution operations to support continued sales growth.
