                   FORM 10-Q FOR QUARTER ENDED APRIL 28, 2001
              NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
            (INFORMATION SUBSEQUENT TO JANUARY 27, 2001 IS UNAUDITED)


1.   SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
     ------------------------------------------

     The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as of April 28,
     2001 and related notes have been prepared pursuant to the rules and
     regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Accordingly, certain
     information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial
     statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
     principles have been omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. The
     accompanying unaudited interim consolidated condensed financial statements
     and related notes should be read in conjunction with the financial
     statements and related notes included in the 2001 Annual Report to
     Stockholders of Michael Anthony Jewelers, Inc. (the "Company").

     The information furnished reflects, in the opinion of the management of the
     Company, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring accruals, which
     are necessary to present a fair statement of the results for the interim
     periods presented.

     The interim figures are not necessarily indicative of the results to be
     expected for the fiscal year due to the seasonal nature of the business.

     Reclassifications
     -----------------

     Certain reclassifications were made to the prior year's financial
     statements to conform to the current year's presentation.

     Effect of Recently Issued Accounting Standards.
     -----------------------------------------------

     In June 1998, SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and
     Hedging Activities," as amended by SFAS No. 137, is effective for fiscal
     years beginning after June 15, 2000. SFAS No. 133 requires that all
     derivative instruments be measured at fair value and recognized in the
     balance sheet as either assets or liabilities. The Company has adopted SFAS
     No. 133 as of January 28, 2001.

     In December 1999, the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) issued Staff
     Accounting Bulletin (SAB) 101, "Revenue Recognition in Financial
     Statements". In June 2000, the SEC delayed the effective date of SAB 101 to
     no later than the fourth quarter of fiscal years beginning after December
     15, 1999. The Company has adopted SAB 101 as of January 28, 2001.

     The adoption of the above pronouncements did not have a material impact on
     results of operations or comprehensive income.

2.   PRODUCT PRICING
     ---------------

     The Company's products, the principal component of which is gold, are
     generally sold at prices which are based on the market price of gold on the
     date merchandise is ordered or shipped to the customer, therefore, the
     Company's sales volume is significantly influenced by the market price of
     gold. The selling prices for certain customers may be fixed for a specific
     period of time. In such cases, the Company is able to shift a substantial
     portion of the risks of gold price fluctuation by hedging against changes
     in the price of gold by entering into forward contracts or purchasing
     futures or options on futures.

     The Company's consigned gold inventory is hedged against the effects of
     price fluctuations. The Company has entered into arrangements with certain
     gold lenders (the "Gold Lenders") pursuant to which the Company does not
     purchase gold from the Gold Lenders until receipt of a purchase order from,
     or shipment of jewelry to, its customers. These arrangements permit the
     Company to match the sales price of the product with the price the Company
     pays for the gold.

     The average selling price of gold in the current quarter was $272 per ounce
     compared to $295 per ounce for the quarter ended April 29, 2000.

     In December 1995, the Company announced a Common Stock repurchase program
     pursuant to which the Company may repurchase up to 750,000 shares of Common
     Stock. On April 4, 1997, the Board of Directors authorized an increase of

             ITEM 2 MICHAEL ANTHONY JEWELERS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
                      MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
                OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
            (INFORMATION SUBSEQUENT TO JANUARY 27, 2001 IS UNAUDITED)



RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED
- ------------------------------------------------
APRIL 28, 2001 AND APRIL 29, 2000
- ---------------------------------

Net sales for the first three months ended April 28, 2001 were approximately
$29,176,000, an increase of 13.0% from net sales of approximately $25,827,000
for the comparable period last year. The increase in sales was primarily due to
product distributed for the Almond Jewelry Group.

Gross profit margin decreased to approximately 18.0% of net sales for the first
three months ended April 28, 2001 compared to approximately 22.1% for the
comparable period last year, primarily due to a change in the product and
customer mix.

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the first three months ended
April 28, 2001 were approximately $5,119,000, a decrease of $963,000 or 15.8%
from approximately $6,082,000 for the comparable period last year. The decrease
is primarily attributable to decreases in payroll and payroll related expenses
and advertising expenses which were partly offset by increases in product and
packaging supplies.

Interest expense and gold consignment fees for the first three months ended
April 28, 2001 were approximately $497,000, an increase of $26,000 or 5.5.0%
compared to approximately $471,000 for the comparable period last year. The
increase was primarily due to higher consignment rates and higher consignment
levels. Interest income decreased primarily due to the Company's lower cash
position.

As a result of the above factors, the Company had a net loss for the first three

Liquidity and Capital Resources
- -------------------------------

The Company relies on a gold consignment program, short-term and long-term
borrowings and internally generated funds to finance its operations. The Company
fills most of its gold supply needs through gold consignment arrangements with
the Gold Lenders. During the quarter, the Company received notice that one if
its gold lenders planned to discontinue its involvement in jewelry financing.
During the same period, the Company begun a relationship with a new gold lender.
Under the terms of those arrangements, the Company is entitled to lease the
lesser of (i) an aggregate of 275,000 ounces of fine gold or (ii) consigned gold
with an aggregate value equal to $98,000,000.

The consigned gold is secured by certain property of the Company including
inventory and machinery and equipment. The Company pays the Gold Lenders a
consignment fee based on the dollar value of ounces of gold outstanding under
their respective agreements, which value is based on the daily Second London
Gold Fix.

The Company believes that its financing rate under the consignment arrangements
is substantially similar to the financing rates charged to gold consignees
similarly situated to the Company. As of April 28, 2001, the Company held
approximately 149,000 ounces of gold on consignment with a market value of
approximately $39,385,000.

The consignment agreements contain certain restrictive covenants relating to
maximum usage, net worth, working capital and other financial ratios and each of
the agreements requires the Company to own a specific amount of gold at all
times. At April 28, 2001, the Company was in compliance with the covenants in
its consignment agreements and the Company's owned gold inventory was valued at
approximately $3,930,000. Management believes that the supply of gold available
through the Company's gold consignment arrangements, in conjunction with the
Company's owned gold, is sufficient to meet the Company's requirements.

The consignment agreements are terminable by the Company or the respective Gold
Lenders upon 30 days notice. If any Gold Lender were to terminate its existing
gold consignment arrangement, the Company does not believe it would experience
an interruption of its gold supply that would materially adversely affect its
business. The Company believes that other consignors would be willing to enter
into similar arrangements if any Gold Lender terminates its relationship with
the Company.

Consigned gold is not included in the Company's inventory, and there is no
related liability recorded. As a result of these consignment arrangements, the
Company is able to shift a substantial portion of the risk of market
fluctuations in the price of gold to the Gold Lenders, since the Company does
not purchase gold from the Gold Lenders until receipt of a purchase order,
projection, or shipment of jewelry to, its customers.

The Company then either establishes the selling price of the jewelry to its
customers concurrently with the required purchase of gold from the Gold Lenders
or hedges against changes in the price of gold by entering into forward
contracts or purchasing futures or options on futures that are listed on the
COMEX.

While the Company believes its supply of gold is relatively secure, significant
increases or rapid fluctuations in the cost of gold may result in reduced demand
for the Company's products. From January 27, 2001 until April 28, 2001, the
closing price of gold according to the Second London Gold Fix ranged from a low
of $256 per ounce to a high of nearly $273 per ounce. There can be no assurances
that fluctuations in the precious metals and credit markets would not result in
an interruption of the Company's gold supply or the credit arrangements
necessary to allow the Company to support its accounts receivable and continue
the use of consigned gold.

On January 27, 1999, the Company repaid its long-term debt with the insurance
companies by obtaining a loan from a new lender in the amount of $10,444,000. As
collateral for the loan, the Company granted the lender a lien on the Company's
machinery and equipment. The loan has an eight-year term and will accrue
interest at 6.85%. The loan does not contain any restrictive financial
covenants. At April 28, 2001, $8,926,000 of principal remained outstanding under
the loan.

On February 10, 1999, Michael Anthony obtained a loan in the amount of $937,500.
As collateral for the loan, the Company granted the lender a first mortgage on
one of its manufacturing facilities. The mortgage has a fifteen-year term and
accrues interest at an annual rate of 7.05%. At April 28, 2001, $855,000 of
principal remained outstanding under the loan.

In October 1995, the Company obtained a loan from a bank in the amount of
$2,500,000. As collateral for the loan, the Company granted the bank a first
mortgage on the Company's corporate headquarters. The mortgage has a ten-year
term and interest on the mortgage accrues at 8% per annum. In addition, the
mortgage contains certain restrictive financial covenants. At April 28, 2001,
the Company was in compliance with the covenants and $1,890,000 of principal
remained outstanding under the mortgage.

On September 16, 1999, the Company acquired two buildings which house two
manufacturing facilities, located at 70 and 60 South MacQuesten Parkway, Mount
Vernon, NY from MacQuesten Realty Company for a price of $2,450,000. The Company
incurred $929,000 of long term debt, which has a four-year term and accrues
interest at an annual rate of 7.50%, and paid the balance with cash from its
operations. At April 28, 2001, $598,000 of principal remained outstanding under
the loan.

The Company has a line of credit arrangement with a commercial bank which varies
seasonally from $10,000,000 to $18,350,000 (the "Line of Credit"). The Line of
Credit is secured by certain assets of the Company, including accounts
receivable and inventory. As of April 28, 2001 $2,500,000 was outstanding under
the Line of Credit.

During the three months ended April 28, 2001, cash used in operating activities
was $5,176,000. The increase compared to last year is primarily due to an
increase in inventory, and a decrease in accounts payable and taxes payable.
During the comparable period of the prior year, the Company used in $748,000 of
cash in operating activities, primarily due to the decreased accounts
receivable.

Cash of $411,000 was used in investing activities as compared to $1,043,000 used
during the comparable three-month period last year. The decrease is primarily
due to decreases in the Company's purchase of machinery and equipment.

Cash of $2,070,000 was used in financing activities during the three-month
period, compared to $491,000 provided by the comparable period of the prior
year. The increase was primarily due to the Company's borrowings on its line of
credit.

For the balance of fiscal 2002, the Company projects capital expenditures of
approximately $800,000.

The Company believes that its long-term debt and existing lines of credit
provide sufficient funding for the Company's operations. In the event that the
Company requires additional financing during fiscal 2002, it will be necessary
to fund this requirement through expanded credit facilities with its existing or
other lenders. The Company believes that such additional financing can be
arranged.

Forward Looking Statements (Cont'd)
- ---------------------------

a)       general economic conditions and their impact on the retail environment;

b)       fluctuations in the price of gold and other metals used to manufacture
         the Company's jewelry;

c)       risks related to the concentration of the Company's customers,
         particularly the operations of any of its top customers;

d)       increased competition from outside the United States where labor costs
         are substantially lower;

e)       variability of customer requirements and the nature of customers'
         commitments on projections and orders; and

f)       the extent to which the Company is able to attract and retain key
         personnel.

In light of these uncertainties and risks, there can be no assurance that the

continue in the future. Except for its required, periodic filings under the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the Company undertakes no obligations to
release publicly any revisions to these forward looking statements that may

Effect of Recently Issued Accounting Standards.
- -----------------------------------------------

In June 1998, SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging
Activities," as amended by SFAS No. 137, is effective for fiscal years beginning
after June 15, 2000. SFAS No. 133 requires that all derivative instruments be
measured at fair value and recognized in the balance sheet as either assets or
liabilities. The Company has adopted SFAS No. 133 as of January 28, 2001.

In December 1999, the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) issued Staff
Accounting Bulletin (SAB) 101, "Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements". In
June 2000, the SEC delayed the effective date of SAB 101 to no later than the
fourth quarter of fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1999. The Company
has adopted SAB 101 as of January 28, 2001.

The adoption of the above pronouncements did not have a material impact on
results of operations or comprehensive income.

Item 3.

    Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure about Market Risk
    ---------------------------------------------------------

    The carrying amounts of financial instruments, including cash and cash
    equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities,
    approximate fair value because of the current nature of these instruments.
    The carrying amount reported for revolving credit and long-term debt
    approximate fair value because of the interest rates on these instruments
    approximate current market rates. Because the interest rates on our long
    term debt is fixed and our revolving debt is utilized seasonally we do not
    hedge against interest rate increases.

    Consigned gold is not included in the Company's inventory, and there is no
    related liability recorded. As a result of these consignment arrangements,
    the Company is able to shift a substantial portion of the risk of market
    fluctuations in the price of gold to the Gold Lenders, since the Company
    does not purchase gold from the Gold Lenders until receipt of a purchase
    order form, or shipment of jewelry to, its customers. The Company then
    either locks in the selling price of the jewelry to its customers
    concurrently with the required purchase of gold from the Gold Lenders or
    hedges against changes in the price of gold by entering into forward
    contracts or purchasing futures or options on futures that are listed on the
    COMEX. While the Company believes its supply of gold is relatively secure,
    significant increases or rapid fluctuations in the cost of gold may result
    in reduced demand for the Company's products.

    All of our revenues are realized in U.S. dollars and all of our revenues are
    from customers in the United States. Therefore, we do not believe we face
    significant direct foreign currency exchange rate risk. We do not hedge
    against foreign currency exchange rate changes.
