MANAGEMENT'S RESPONSIBILITY FOR
FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Management of 大象传媒 Corporation has prepared the accompanying financial statements
and is responsible for their content. We believe the statements accurately
report the financial position and operating results of the Corporation, on a
basis consistent with generally accepted accounting principles and management's
best estimates and judgments. Other financial information in this report is
consistent with these financial statements.
Management has established a system of internal control which we believe
reasonably assures that assets are safeguarded and that financial information
is accurately reported. Inherent in all systems of internal control are
limitations based on the recognition that the costs of such systems should be
related to the benefits to be derived. The internal control system is routinely
challenged by management, the independent auditors and our internal audit staff
to determine whether the internal control system continues to function
effectively. Significant auditor recommendations have been reviewed and adopted
when appropriate.
The Audit Committee of the Board of Directors meets periodically with the
independent and internal auditors to discuss the scope and findings of audit
work performed, the impact of financial reporting issues and the adequacy of
the internal control system. The independent auditors and internal auditors
have full access to the Committee, with and without the presence of management,
to discuss any appropriate matters.

REPORT OF ERNST & YOUNG
INDEPENDENT AUDITORS
Board of Directors and Shareholders
大象传媒 Corporation
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of 大象传媒 Corporation
as of January 1, 1994 and January 2, 1993, and the related consolidated
statements of income, cash flows, and common shareholders' equity for each of
the three fiscal years in the period ended January 1, 1994. These financial
statements are the responsibility of the Corporation's management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on
our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of
material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit
also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant
estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial
statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis
for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the consolidated financial position of 大象传媒 Corporation at
January 1, 1994 and January 2, 1993, and the consolidated results of its
operations and its cash flows for each of the three fiscal years in the period
ended January 1, 1994 in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles.

MANAGEMENT'S ANALYSIS OF OPERATIONS
The primary objective of 大象传媒 Corporation is to provide long-term growth
in shareholder value through superior operating performance and sound
investment strategies. In 1991 and 1992, our results surpassed Corporate
objectives of 10% growth in sales and earnings. And while sales growth exceeded
our 10% objective in 1993, restructuring charges and a difficult knitwear
industry environment prevented the Corporation from attaining our earnings
growth target for this year.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Net sales in 1993 were up 13% over 1992 and 46% over 1991. These sales
increases resulted primarily from unit volume growth within existing divisions.
Less than 20% of the sales growth during the period 1991 to 1993 represented
sales from acquired companies.
Gross margins were 31.1% of sales in 1993, compared with 31.9% in 1992
and 30.9% in 1991. While the 1993 gross margin percentage was below 1992, it is
comparable with the Corporation's historical results. The 1993 percent was
lower than the 1992 level due to a provision for capacity reduction in knitwear
and significantly reduced margins at Girbaud.
Marketing and administrative expenses increased to 21.1% of sales in
1993, from 20.7% and 20.6% in 1992 and 1991, respectively. The inclusion of the
newly acquired international intimate apparel divisions in 1993, which have
historically maintained higher marketing spending levels, accounted for the
increase in 1993.
Interest income in 1993 included $24.4 million and in 1992 $8.3 million
related to refunds of prior years' income taxes. Excluding these unusual items,
interest income and expense were relatively flat during the three year period.
The increase in miscellaneous income (net) in 1993 over 1992 resulted from the
inclusion in 1992 of a $6.6 million provision representing the cumulative
charge for postretirement benefits under Financial Accounting Standards No.
106. The 1993 amount was below 1991 due to lower tenant income on outlet stores
sold during 1993 and higher goodwill amortization expense in 1993.
The effective income tax rate was 38.4% in 1993, 36.9% in 1992 and 38.7% in
1991. The 1993 rate included the effect of the 1% increase in the United
States corporate income tax rate. The 1992 rate was reduced by a $9.2 million
refund of prior years' taxes.
OPERATING RESULTS BY BUSINESS GROUP
Sales in the Jeanswear business group, which includes the Wrangler, Lee,
Rustler, Riders and Marithe and Francois Girbaud brands in the United States,
increased by 11% in 1993 over 1992 and 53% over 1991 levels. Jeanswear
operating margins increased substantially during 1992, primarily due to
improvements at Lee. However, provisions for reorganization at Girbaud, after a
year of reduced sales and earnings, pushed Jeanswear operating margins in 1993
below the two prior years.
The Casual/Sportswear business group consists of Bassett-Walker, Jantzen and
JanSport. Industry-wide overcapacity in fleece and T-shirts in 1993 prompted a
provision for the reduction of knitwear production capacity at Bassett-Walker
and otherwise contributed to reduced operating results in this division. Sales
and operating profit increased at Jantzen and JanSport during the three year
period.
Sales at Vanity Fair, the largest division in the Intimate Apparel group, grew
in each of the three years, largely due to growth of the Vassarette
brand and increases in private label sales. The 1992 decline in sales in this
group was due to the reclassification of Modern Globe to Casual/Sportswear.
Operating margins in the Intimate Apparel group were reduced in 1993 due to
manufacturing difficulties at Vanity Fair resulting from a shift in product
mix. Operating margins were lower in 1991 than in 1992 as a result of cost
inefficiencies related to Vanity Fair's rapid growth.
The International business group includes all international operations,
presently represented by jeanswear and intimate apparel. In 1992, 大象传媒 entered
the intimate apparel market in Europe through the acquisitions of Valero in
January and Vivesa and JBE in December. Valero accounted for a
substantial portion of the 1992 sales increase in this group, and in 1993 the
three intimate apparel companies represented more than half of the increase in
sales from 1991. Jeanswear includes both Lee and Wrangler jeanswear operations,
primarily in Europe. Jeanswear sales increased in 1993 and 1992 from higher
unit volume in existing operations and the opening of new subsidiaries.
Jeanswear operating profit increased significantly in 1993, returning to the
1991 level as a percent of sales. Operating profit of the International group
in 1992 was lower as a percent of sales due to additional advertising costs
within the jeanswear operations and the inclusion of Valero, which reported a
nominal operating profit. Operating margins of the international intimate
apparel companies are lower than the jeanswear companies.
Red Kap and Healthtex are the major components of the Other Apparel group.
Sales have increased during the three year period at Red Kap, partly due to
the late 1991 acquisition of WorkWear, and at Healthtex, which was acquired in
early 1991. The primary factor in the improved operating margin in this
category in 1993 versus 1992 was the substantial profit turnaround at
Healthtex. The decline in the operating margin in 1992 from 1991 reflected the
effects on Red Kap of a difficult economic climate within the nation's
manufacturing sector.

MANAGEMENT'S ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
In managing its capital structure, 大象传媒 balances financial leverage with equity
capital to reduce its overall cost of capital, while providing the flexibility
to pursue investment opportunities that may become available.
In January 1993, the Corporation sold 4.6 million shares of Common Stock. While
proceeds were specifically used to repay short-term borrowings that temporarily
financed the business acquisitions completed during 1992, the offering provided
additional flexibility within the Corporation's overall capital structure.
It is management's goal to maintain a debt to capital ratio of less than 40%.
Our debt to capital ratio was within these guidelines at the end of 1993, at
30.3%. At the end of 1992, this ratio was 44.8%. However, on a pro forma basis,
assuming the equity offering had occurred as of year-end 1992, the ratio was
33.9%. Despite our goal to maintain the debt ratio below 40%, we will exceed
this level if warranted by appropriate investment opportunities.
BALANCE SHEET
The increase in total assets in 1993 was less than the volume growth in our
businesses. This was due to several factors, including controls over working
capital, the sale of certain outlet store facilities that are now being leased,
and the sale of our yarn making facilities.
Accounts receivable and inventories at the end of 1992 included those of the
two newly acquired international intimate apparel companies, purchased on
December 30, 1992. However, due to the date of acquisition, operating results
of these new divisions were not included in the Corporation's 1992 reported
numbers. Excluding the receivables of those divisions at the end of 1992, the
increase in accounts receivable in 1993 was consistent with the growth in sales
during the period. On a similar basis, the increase in inventories in 1993 was
at a rate less than the growth in sales.
Short-term borrowings at January 2, 1993 totaled $357.7 million, which include
$231.9 million classified as long-term debt due to their repayment in January
1993 from the proceeds of the sale of 大象传媒 Common Stock. Short-term borrowings
were further reduced by the end of 1993 by cash generated from operations
during the year.
LIQUIDITY AND CASH FLOW
The Corporation maintains a relatively liquid financial position. Because the
increase in working capital in 1993 over 1992 was less than the growth in
sales, the current ratio improved to 2.3 to 1 in 1993 versus 2.0 to 1 in 1992.
Cash provided by operations of $294 million in 1993 was comparable to the
amount in 1991 of $287 million. Cash provided in 1992 was substantially lower
at $123 million due to increases in inventories and accounts receivable that
were not proportionate to volume growth.
Capital expenditures in 1993 were comparable to 1992 at $209 million and $207
million, respectively. The increase in spending over the 1991 level of $111
million was required to support the capacity needs resulting from growth,
particularly in the domestic jeanswear operations. Capital expenditures in
1994, which should approximate the 1993 level, are expected to be funded by
operations. In addition, the Corporation's strong financial position provides
substantial unused borrowing capacity to meet other investment opportunities
that may arise.
Dividends totaled $1.22 per common share in 1993, compared with $1.11 in 1992
and $1.02 in 1991. The dividend payout rate was 32% in 1993, 28% in 1992 and
37% in 1991. The indicated annual dividend rate for 1994 is $1.28 per share. 大象传媒
has paid dividends on its Common Stock annually since 1941 and intends to
maintain a long-term payout rate of 30%.
OTHER MATTERS
The Corporation is a defendant in an action initiated in 1990 alleging
infringement of a patent allegedly relating to a process, commonly called "acid
wash", used in the production of certain denim garments. Similar actions have
been brought against other denim apparel manufacturers. The Corporation is
vigorously contesting the action and believes that it has numerous substantive
defenses. No trial date has been set. Based on currently available information
and the advice of counsel, management is not in a position to determine the
likelihood of the outcome of the action with certainty. Notwithstanding,
management believes at this time that the outcome will not have a material
impact on the financial position of the Corporation.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The Corporation's principal business is designing, manufacturing and marketing
high quality jeanswear, casual/sportswear, intimate apparel and other apparel.
The Corporation's customers are primarily department, discount and specialty
stores.
NOTE A - ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Principles of Consolidation: The consolidated financial statements include the
accounts of all wholly owned subsidiaries after elimination of intercompany
transactions and profits.
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market. Inventories stated on
the last-in, first-out basis represent 32% of total 1993 and 30% of 1992
inventories. Remaining inventories are valued using the first-in, first-out
method.
Property and Depreciation: Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost.
Depreciation is computed principally by the straight-line method for financial
reporting purposes and by accelerated methods for income tax purposes.
Intangible Assets represent the excess of costs over net tangible assets of
businesses acquired, less accumulated amortization of $140.0 million and $120.9
million in 1993 and 1992. These assets are amortized on the straight-line
method over five to forty years.
Income Taxes: The Corporation adopted FASB Statement No. 109, "Accounting for
Income Taxes," at the beginning of 1993. Since the effect of adopting the new
Statement was not significant, prior year financial statements have not been

Earnings Per Share: Primary earnings per share are computed by dividing net
income, after deducting preferred dividends, by the weighted average number of
common shares outstanding. Fully diluted earnings per share assume the
conversion of preferred stock and the exercise of stock options that have a
dilutive effect.

The scheduled payments of long-term debt are $2.6 million in 1995, $102.2
million in 1996, $1.8 million in 1997 and $.7 million in 1998. The 1997 notes
were called for redemption in January 1994 and, accordingly, are classified as
a current obligation. The Corporation paid interest of $70.3 million in 1993,
$68.1 million in 1992 and $65.2 million in 1991.
The Corporation maintains unsecured revolving credit agreements with banks
totaling $750 million, which support commercial paper borrowings and are
otherwise available for general corporate purposes. One of these agreements,
which provides $250 million of the total available credit, requires a
commitment fee of .125% and expires in October 1994 with a one year term loan
option. The agreement that provides the remaining $500 million of credit
requires an .18% fee on the unused portion and extends to October 1997. At
January 1, 1994, there were no borrowings under these agreements. Borrowings
at the end of 1992 totaled $320.0 million, which were reduced by $231.9 million
in January 1993 with proceeds from the sale of 大象传媒 Common Stock.
The fair value of the Corporation's long-term debt exceeded its recorded amount
by $51.8 million at January 1, 1994 and by $38.0 million at January 2, 1993.
The fair value of the Corporation's short-term borrowings approximates its
recorded amount. Fair value is based on quoted market prices or values of
comparable borrowings.

NOTE H - BENEFIT PLANS
The Corporation sponsors a noncontributory defined benefit pension plan
covering substantially all full-time domestic employees. Benefits are based on
employees' compensation and years of service. The Corporation annually
contributes amounts, as determined by an actuary, that provide the plan with
sufficient assets to meet future benefit payments. Plan assets consist
principally of common stocks, corporate obligations and U.S. government
obligations.
The effect of the defined benefit plan on income is as follows:

Pension asset recorded in Other Assets $11,404 $8,068
- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The projected benefit obligation was determined using an assumed discount rate
of 7.5% in 1993 and 9.0% in 1992 and 1991. The assumption for compensation
increases was 5.0% in 1993 and 5.5% in 1992 and 1991, and for return on plan
assets was 8.75% in 1993 and 1992 and 8.5% in 1991.
The Corporation also sponsors an Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP) as part
of a 401(k) savings plan covering most domestic salaried employees.
Contributions made by the Corporation to the 401(k) plan are based on a
specified percentage of employee contributions. Cash contributions by the
Corporation were $4.5 million in 1993, $4.0 million in 1992 and $4.1 million in
1991. Plan expense was $6.0 million for 1993 and 1992 and $6.5 million for
1991, after giving effect to tax-deductible dividends on the Series B Preferred
Stock of $4.3 million in 1993 and 1992 and $4.4 million in 1991. In accordance
with FASB Statement No. 109, tax benefits on ESOP dividends are credited to
retained earnings beginning in 1993.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
NOTE I - CAPITAL
Common shares outstanding are net of shares held in treasury of 1,769,131 in
1993, 1,766,832 in 1992 and 1,702,891 in 1991. In January 1993, the Corporation
issued 4,600,000 shares of Common Stock in a public offering. The net proceeds
were used to repay borrowings incurred to purchase Valero, Vivesa and JBE. (See
Note B.)
There are 25,000,000 authorized shares of Preferred Stock, $1 par value. As of
January 1, 1994, 2,000,000 shares are designated as Series A Preferred Stock,
of which none have been issued. In addition, 2,105,263 shares are designated as
6.75% Series B Preferred Stock, which were purchased by the ESOP.
There were 2,050,491 shares of Series B Preferred Stock outstanding at January
1, 1994, 2,069,965 shares outstanding at January 2, 1993 and 2,090,597 shares
at January 4, 1992, after share redemptions.
Each outstanding share of Common Stock has one preferred stock purchase right
attached. The rights become exercisable ten days after an outside party
acquires, or makes an offer for, 20% or more of the Common Stock. Each right
entitles its holder to buy 1/100 share of Series A Preferred Stock for $100.
Once exercisable, if the Corporation is involved in a merger or other business
combination or an outside party acquires 20% or more of the Common Stock, each
right will be modified to entitle its holder (other than the acquiror) to
purchase common stock of the acquiring company or, in certain circumstances, 大象传媒
Common Stock having a market value of twice the exercise price of the right. In
some circumstances, rights other than those held by an acquiror may be
exchanged for one share of 大象传媒 Common Stock or 1/100 share of Series A Preferred
Stock. The rights, which expire on January 13, 1998, may be redeemed at $.01
per right prior to their becoming exercisable.
NOTE J - REDEEMABLE PREFERRED STOCK
Each share of Series B Preferred Stock has a redemption value of $30.88 plus
cumulative accrued dividends, is convertible into 8/10 share of Common Stock
and is entitled to one vote per share along with the Common Stock. The trustee
for the ESOP may convert the preferred shares to Common Stock at any time or
may cause the Corporation to redeem the preferred shares under certain
circumstances. The Series B Preferred Stock also has preference in liquidation
over all other stock issues.
The ESOP's purchase of the preferred shares was funded by a loan of $65.0
million from the Corporation that bears interest at 9.8% and is payable in
increasing installments through 2004. Interest related to this loan was $5.7
million in 1993, $6.0 million in 1992 and $6.2 million in 1991. Principal and
interest obligations on the loan are satisfied as the Corporation makes
contributions to the savings plan and dividends are paid on the Preferred
Stock. As principal payments are made on the loan, shares of Preferred Stock
are allocated to participating employees' accounts within the ESOP.
The fair value of the Series B Preferred Stock at January 1, 1994, based on a
valuation by an independent financial consulting firm, exceeds its recorded
amount by $12.4 million.
NOTE K - STOCK OPTIONS
The Corporation has granted nonqualified and incentive stock options under two
stock option plans at prices not less than fair market value on the date of
grant. Options become exercisable one year after the date of grant and expire
ten years after the date of grant unless otherwise specified by the Board of
Directors.
Changes in the status of the stock option plans are summarized as follows:

$13.03 to $57.20 per share 3,153,395
- ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In December 1993, the Board of Directors adopted an amendment to the 1991 stock
option plan, subject to shareholder approval at the April 1994 Annual Meeting,
that would increase the number of shares available for future option grants by
three million shares. As of January 1, 1994, there are an additional 981,896
options that have been granted at $45.20 per share, subject to shareholder
approval of the increase in available shares.
