At December 1, 1997, 5,069,892 shares of the registrant's Common Stock, no par value, were outstanding. DOCUMENTS INCORPORATED BY REFERENCE The registrant incorporates by reference in Part III of this Report specified portions of its definitive Proxy Statement to be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission in connection with its 1998 Annual Meeting of Shareholders ("1998 Proxy Statement"). 2 PART I Item 1. Business. (a) General development of business. (a)(1) The registrant was incorporated on December 4, 1957. During the fiscal year ended September 30, 1997, there were no material changes or developments in the business done by the registrant or its subsidiaries or in the manner in which it conducted its business during the prior five fiscal years. (a)(2) Not applicable. (b) Financial information about industry segments. The registrant produces only apparel and, accordingly, information relative to industry segments is not applicable. (c) Narrative description of business. (c)(i) The registrant is engaged in the design, manufacture, and sale of apparel for men, women, and children including boys, girls, toddlers, and infants. The percentage of registrant's net sales in each of the foregoing categories in the last three fiscal years is as follows: Percentage of Net Sales (years ended September 30) 1997 1996 1995 ---- ---- ---- Men's apparel 6% 8% 10% Women's apparel 14 18 18 Children's apparel 80 74 72 The registrant produces apparel primarily sold to regional mass merchandisers, major national chain stores, department stores, and 3 specialty stores. Sales are made primarily by the registrant's salaried sales staff. (c)(ii) Not applicable. (c)(iii) Raw materials essential to the registrant are readily available from various alternate sources of supply. (c)(iv) The registrant distributes children's apparel under various of its own trademarks including, principally, GARAN and GARANIMALS, men's apparel under various of its own trademarks including, principally, GARAN, and women's apparel under various of its own trademarks including, principally, GARAN. Sales of branded apparel under the registrant's own trademarks accounted for approximately 16%, 4%, and 6% of the registrant's net sales in fiscal 1997, 1996, and 1995, respectively. The registrant also distributes apparel under various trademarks licensed from third parties. Since 1975, registrant has been a non-exclusive licensee of professional sports leagues and teams for T-shirts, knit shirts, sweatshirts, and sweaters for boys and men, since 1990, registrant has been a non-exclusive licensee of various colleges and universities for sweatshirts and knit shirts for boys and men, and since 1995, the registrant has been the exclusive licensee of the trademark EVERLAST for men's, boys', and girls' activewear. Sales of all such licensed apparel by registrant accounted for approximately 10%, 9%, and 12% of the registrant's net sales in fiscal 1997, 1996, and 1995, respectively. Since 1986, the registrant has been the exclusive licensee of the 4 trademark BOBBIE BROOKS for girls' and women's apparel, and sales of apparel by registrant bearing the BOBBIE BROOKS trademark accounted for approximately 14%, 8%, and 7% of the registrant's net sales in fiscal 1997, 1996, and 1995, respectively. Since fiscal 1991, registrant has been a non-exclusive licensee of Disney Enterprises, Inc. for various trademarks, and sales of apparel bearing such trademarks accounted for approximately 2%, 9%, and 8% of registrant's net sales for fiscal 1997, 1996, and 1995, respectively. Total sales of all apparel bearing licensed trademarks and logos, some of which apparel also bears the registrant's trademarks G.T.S, TEAM RATED, and SCRIMMAGE, accounted for approximately 26%, 28%, and 27% of the registrant's net sales in fiscal 1997, 1996, and 1995, respectively. The terms of the foregoing license agreements range from 1 to 3 years, royalty rates range from 1% to 12% of net sales, each license agreement has a minimum royalty commitment, and certain license agreements impose an advertising commitment. The registrant also licenses its GARANIMALS trademark and sublicenses the BOBBIE BROOKS trademark to non-affiliates. (c)(v) The registrant operates primarily on the basis of two seasons - Spring/Summer and Fall/Holiday. Shipments for the Spring/Summer season are generally made from December through July and for the Fall/Holiday season from June through December. Registrant maintains production levels relatively constant throughout the year, but because of seasonal shipping patterns, the registrant's inventory levels fluctuate during the year. (c)(vi) Not applicable. (c)(vii) Wal-Mart Stores, Inc. accounted for 71%, 66%, and 63% of the registrant's net sales during fiscal 1997, 1996, and 1995, respectively. During the same periods, J.C. Penney 5 Company, Inc. accounted for 12%, 15%, and 20% of the registrant's net sales. The registrant has had business relationships with Wal-Mart Stores, Inc. and J.C. Penney Company, Inc. for more than the past 20 years, but as neither of these relationships involves a long-term contractual commitment, there can be no assurance as to the level of future business with either of these customers. The balance of the registrant's sales are made to approximately 2,300 accounts, none of which is responsible for more than 10% of the registrant's net sales. (c)(viii) The registrant plans its production based upon retailer commitments for long range programs permitting it to maintain production levels relatively constant throughout the year. In view of the registrant's reliance on such commitments and emphasis on replenishment programs and EDI order placement, purchase orders are not significant to an understanding of registrant's business. (c)(ix) Not applicable. (c)(x) The men's, women's, and children's apparel business in the United States is highly competitive primarily in price, style, and delivery and consists of many domestic and foreign manufacturers, importers, and distributors. The registrant does not compete solely on a price basis; the registrant competes by relying on style, delivery, replenishment, and vendor-managed programs as well as price. No single enterprise sells more than a small portion of the total apparel sold in the United States, and there are no reliable figures available from which the registrant's relative position in the United States apparel industry can be determined or from which the effect of foreign competition can be assessed. (c)(xi) No material expenditures are made by the registrant for research activities relating to the development of 6 new services or products or the improvement of existing services or products. (c)(xii) The registrant's compliance with Federal, state, and local environmental laws and regulations had no material effect upon its capital expenditures, earnings, or competitive position during the fiscal year ended September 30, 1997. The registrant does not anticipate any material capital expenditures for environmental control in either its present or succeeding fiscal years. (c)(xiii) The registrant employed approximately 2,800 persons at September 30, 1997. (d) Financial information about foreign and domestic operations and export sales. The registrant has operated a manufacturing facility in Costa Rica since 1984, and in fiscal 1995, began operating manufacturing facilities in El Salvador, but it was not otherwise engaged in business within any foreign country during the fiscal year ended September 30, 1997. During fiscal 1997, 1996, and 1995, export sales by registrant amounted to less than 1% of total sales and are not considered to be significant to an understanding of registrant's business.

12 Item 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - ----------------------------------------------------------- - ----------------------------------------------------------- Certain statements included in this Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and elsewhere in this report contain "forward-looking statements" based upon management's expectations and beliefs concerning future events impacting the Company. Actual results of operations or financial condition may differ because of business conditions in the apparel industry generally, competition, the addition or loss of significant customers or personnel, the timing of orders placed by the Company's customers, and such other risk factors as may be identified from time to time in the Company's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. NET SALES Net sales in fiscal 1997 were $153,250,000, an increase of $6,759,000 over fiscal 1996 net sales of $146,491,000. The 1997 sales increase was the result of an increase in total units shipped offset in part by a reduction in average unit selling price primarily caused by a change in the mix of products sold. Sales growth occurred in the Childrenswear Division, which was offset by the discontinued business related to Disney animated film licenses. Net sales in fiscal 1996 were $146,491,000, an increase of $5,161,000 over fiscal 1995 net sales of $141,330,000. The increase in fiscal 1996 was primarily a result of an increase in total units shipped. GROSS MARGIN Gross margin in fiscal 1997 was $36,417,000, or 24% of net sales, as compared to $31,747,000, or 22% of net sales, in fiscal 1996. The increase in gross margin was due to the combination of improvements in manufacturing efficiency due to increased volume and absorption of overhead. Gross margin in fiscal 1996 was $31,747,000, or 22% of net sales, as compared to $29,876,000, or 21% of net sales, in fiscal 1995. The increase in gross margin was the result of improved absorption of manufacturing expenses as a result of the volume increase. SELLING AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES; INTEREST INCOME Selling and administrative expenses in fiscal 1997 were $22,915,000, or 15% of net sales, as compared to $22,652,000, or 15% of net sales, in fiscal 1996. The selling and administrative expenses were comparable as a percentage of sales to the same period last year. The slight increase in dollars is the result of investments in internal operating systems and systems related to customer service offset by a decrease in royalty expenses related to volume net of shortfalls between royalties earned and minimum royalties. Selling and administrative expenses in fiscal 1996 were $22,652,000, or 15% of net sales, as compared to $23,270,000, or 16% of net sales, in fiscal 1995. The decrease, both in absolute dollars and as a percentage of net sales, was the result of reduced general overhead expenses offset by increased advertising in the Everlast Division, net of shortfalls between royalties earned and minimum royalties. 13 - ----------------------------------------------------------- Interest income in fiscal 1997 was $2,773,000, an increase from $2,426,000 in the previous year. The increase from 1996 to 1997 was the result of more favorable rates of return throughout the year and higher levels of investments. Interest income of $2,426,000 in fiscal 1996 decreased slightly from $2,534,000 in fiscal 1995 due to decline in interest rates on investments. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES The balance sheet reflects the strong financial condition of the Company. At September 30, 1997 working capital was $68,407,000, a decrease of $7,360,000 from September 30, 1996 working capital of $75,767,000 primarily resulting from a decrease in cash and cash equivalents of $11,927,000, due to investment in government securities maturing more than one year after the balance sheet date. The Company's primary source of cash during the three years ended September 30, 1997 has been its operating activities. In 1997, 1996 and 1995, operating activities provided cash of $11,632,000, $20,453,000 and $6,727,000, respectfully. The primary uses of cash during the three-year period ended September 30, 1997, have been payment of dividends, additions to property, plant and equipment, and repayment of capitalized lease obligations. In fiscal 1997 the Company continued its year end special dividend payment which it initiated in fiscal 1988. At September 30, 1997, shareholders' equity was $100,786,000 or $19.88 per share, up from $96,141,000, or $18.96 per share, at September 30, 1996. At September 30, 1995, shareholders' equity was $94,315,000, or $18.60 per share. Management believes that the Company has sufficient working capital to finance its operations and projected growth. There were no short-term borrowings outstanding during fiscal years 1997, 1996 and 1995, and management does not anticipate the need for any such borrowings. If necessary, the Company has the ability to obtain funds from a number of sources to meet its seasonal and long-term requirements. 14 Item 8.

SEE NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS. 17 NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - ------------------------------------------------------------------------ - ------------------------------------------------------------------------ NOTE 1--SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES a. PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries, all of which are wholly-owned. All inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. b. USE OF ESTIMATES The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. c. REVENUE RECOGNITION Sales are recognized upon shipment of merchandise. The Company does not provide for allowances or return of goods except for cause. When an allowance or return occurs, it is accounted for as a reduction of sales. Sales allowances are not significant to the operations of the Company. d. INVENTORIES Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (principally standard cost which approximates actual cost on a first-in, first-out basis) or market. e. PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT Property, plant and equipment are carried at cost. Depreciation and amortization for financial accounting purposes are provided by using the straight line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Leases of manufacturing facilities which are in substance financing arrangements have been capitalized, with the corresponding liability included in capitalized lease obligations. f. INCOME TAXES Deferred income taxes are provided to reflect the tax effect of timing differences in reporting income and deductions for tax and financial statement purposes under SFAS 109 which provides for accounting for deferred income taxes using the liability method. g. EARNINGS PER SHARE Earnings per share are calculated on the basis of the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the year. h. CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS For purposes of the statements of cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. i. INVESTMENTS Financial instruments, which potentially subject the Company to concentration of risk, consist of cash and investments. The Company places its investments in US Treasury obligations which limits the amount of credit exposure. The Company's investments are designated as trading or held-to-maturity. Trading securities are reported at fair value, with changes in fair value included in earnings. When the Company has the intent and ability to hold the securities to maturity they are classified as held-to-maturity securities and reported at amortized cost. NOTE 2--INVESTMENTS Investments in the trading category amounted to $6,167,000 at September 30, 1997 and consisted of U.S. Treasury Bills maturing from October 1997 through April 1998. Gross unrealized holding gains at September 30, 1997 were deemed immaterial. 18 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------ - ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Investments in the held-to-maturity category amounted to $29,909,000 at September 30, 1997 and consisted of U.S. Treasury Notes with contractual maturities as follows: 1998 (included in U.S. Government securities -- short-term)................ $10,056,000 1999....................................................................... 15,692,000 2000....................................................................... 4,161,000 ----------- $29,909,000 ----------- -----------
The estimated fair value of investments approximates the amortized cost, and, therefore, there are no unrealized gains or losses as at September 30, 1997. NOTE 3--INVENTORIES INVENTORIES CONSIST OF THE FOLLOWING:
1997 1996 ---------- ---------- Raw materials........................................................... $6,697,000 $3,115,000 Work in process......................................................... 6,921,000 6,837,000 Finished goods.......................................................... 20,113,000 18,687,000 ---------- ---------- $33,731,000 $28,639,000 ---------- ---------- ---------- ----------

NOTE 5--CAPITALIZED LEASES Substantially all of the Company's leases of manufacturing facilities have been capitalized. Future minimum lease payments of principal and interest under leases capitalized at September 30, 1997 are as follows: 1998.......................................................................... $231,000 1999.......................................................................... 231,000 2000.......................................................................... 106,000 2001.......................................................................... 315,000 2002.......................................................................... 305,000 Later years................................................................... 2,358,000 ----------- 3,546,000 Less interest--4.25% to 6.0%..................................................

Income tax expense consists of the following components:
1997 1996 1995 --------- --------- --------- Current.......................................................... $6,766,000 $4,477,000 $4,047,000 Deferred......................................................... (325,000) 25,000 (537,000) --------- --------- --------- $6,441,000 $4,502,000 $3,510,000 --------- --------- --------- --------- --------- ---------
Deferred income taxes are provided to reflect the tax effect of timing differences in reporting income and deductions for tax and financial statement purposes, principally depreciation, pension, employee benefits, deferred compensation and inventory. Included in Other Current Assets at September 30, 1997 and 1996 is $2,013,000 and $1,504,000, respectively, of current deferred income tax debits, and included in Income Taxes Payable at September 30, 1997 and 1996 is $347,000 and $506,000, respectively, of current deferred income tax credits. NOTE 7--COMMITMENTS The Company is obligated under certain long-term leases which do not meet the criteria for capitalization. The annual minimum rental commitments (excluding escalation) of these leases are: 1998............................................................................ $1,402,000 1999............................................................................ 1,411,000 2000............................................................................ 1,411,000 2001............................................................................ 1,214,000 2002 thru 2005.................................................................. 4,062,000
Total rental expense charged to operations in 1997, 1996 and 1995 amounted to $1,591,000, $1,501,000, and $2,474,000, respectively. The Company is obligated under various licensing agreements for annual minimum royalty expense commitments, amounting to approximately $1,530,000 and $1,700,000 for 1998 and 1999, respectively. Total royalty expense charged to operations in 1997, 1996 and 1995 amounted to $2,444,000, $3,433,000, and $3,336,000, respectively. NOTE 8--STOCK OPTION PLAN In 1989, the Company adopted a plan for granting stock options to employees to purchase common stock at a price equal to its fair market value at the respective date of grant. At September 30, 1995 and 1996, there were 200,000 options available for grant. At September 30, 1997, there were 22,500 options available for grant. On November 6, 1996, options to purchase a total of 177,500 shares of the Company's Common Stock at an exercise price of $17 per share were granted to certain employees. The options are exercisable until ten years from date of grant subject to certain conditions. The Company applies Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25 (Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees) and related interpretations in accounting for its stock options plans. Accordingly, no compensation expense is recognized when options are granted. In October 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 123 (Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation) which became effective for the Company during the current year. Had compensation expense been determined based on the fair value methodology prescribed in this statement, net earnings and earnings per share for the current year would 20 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------ - ------------------------------------------------------------------------ have been reduced by approximately $248,000 or $.05 per share for options granted in fiscal 1997. The fair value of the options granted during fiscal 1997 was estimated at $2.33 on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following assumptions: dividend yield 6%, volatility 19%, risk-free interest rate of 6.5% and an expected life of 6 years. NOTE 9--PENSION AND RETIREMENT PLANS The Company contributes to defined benefit pension plans which cover all eligible employees. Pension costs are generally funded currently. Pension expense amounted to $249,721 in 1997, $606,385 in 1996 and $391,055 in 1995. Net pension costs under FASB No. 87 included the following components:
1997 1996 1995 ----------- ----------- ----------- Service cost-benefits earned during the period............... $546,053 $626,204 $562,230 Interest cost on projected benefit obligation................ 1,032,140 1,072,436 980,101 Actual return on plan assets loss (gain).....................

The following table sets forth the funded status for the Company's defined benefit pension plans:
1997 1996 ----------- ----------- Actuarial present value of benefit obligation Vested benefit obligation.............................................. $(10,774,077) $(11,947,688) Nonvested benefit obligation........................................... (695,027) (431,473) ----------- ----------- Accumulated benefit obligation......................................... (11,469,104) (12,379,161) Excess of projected benefit obligation over accumulated benefit obligation............................................................ (1,274,140) (1,276,116) ----------- ----------- Projected benefit obligation........................................... (12,743,244) (13,655,277) Actual plan assets at fair value....................................... 16,394,895 17,131,256 ----------- ----------- Projected benefit obligation less than plan assets..................... 3,651,651 3,475,979 Unrecognized net (gain)................................................

The weighted average discount rate and rate of increase in future compensation levels used in determining the actuarial present value of the projected benefit obligation for the Company's plans was 8.0% in 1997, 8.0% in 1996 and 7.0% in 1995. The expected long-term rate of return on assets used for the Company's plans was 9.5% in 1997, 9.5% in 1996 and 7.5% in 1995. The Board of Directors adopted on April 1, 1989 a Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan for certain executive employees to restore pension benefits which have been reduced by legislative action. The Company purchases annuity contracts to fund its obligation for the four participants (three officers-directors and one employee-director of the Company) under such plan and reimburses the participants for the current tax recognition resulting from such purchases. The respective costs are being amortized over the remaining estimated employment lives of the participants. The 1997, 1996 and 1995 expense for such plan was $436,000, $705,000 and $705,000, respectively. The Board of Directors adopted on January 1, 1995, a Supplemental Benefit Restoration Plan for certain employees not covered by the Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan to restore certain pension benefits which have been reduced by legislative action. The Company is currently funding its obligations under the Plan and the 1997, 1996 and 1995 expense for such plan was $81,000, $68,000 and $75,000, respectively. 21 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------ - ------------------------------------------------------------------------ NOTE 10--MAJOR CUSTOMERS The Company operates within one industry segment--the manufacture of apparel. Sales to one national retail chain accounted for approximately 71% of the Company's net sales in 1997, 66% in 1996 and 63% in 1995. Another national retail chain accounted for approximately 12%, 15% and 20% of the Company's net sales in 1997, 1996 and 1995. No other customer accounted for more than 10% of the Company's net sales in any of the three years. The Company routinely assesses the financial strength of its customers and, as a consequence, generally does not require collateral or other security to support customer receivables. Historically, the Company has not experienced significant losses related to receivables and management believes that its trade receivable credit risk exposure is limited. NOTE 11--SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY Pursuant to the Company's Rights Plan, each shareholder holds one right for each share of common stock, and in the event any person acquires 20% of the Company's common stock, each right will give the holder the option to purchase one share of the Company's common stock for $90, subject to adjustment. The rights expire May 16, 2003, and may be redeemed by the Company for $.01 per right. As of September 30, 1997, 5,069,892 shares of the Company's common stock were reserved for issuance under the Company's Rights Plan. NOTE 12--EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENTS The Company maintains employment agreements with four directors, three of whom are also officers of the Company. The employment agreements contain change in control provisions that would entitle each of the four directors to receive up to 2.99 times his five year average annual salary plus continuation of certain benefits if there is a change in control in the Company (as defined) and his employment terminates. The maximum contingent liability under these agreements in such event is approximately $7,663,000. The employment agreements also provide for severance benefits, disability and death benefits and, as to one officer-director, consulting services under certain circumstances. NOTE 13--QUARTERLY FINANCIAL DATA (UNAUDITED) Financial data for the interim periods of 1997 and 1996 were as follows:

22 INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT - ------------------------------------------------------------------------ - ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Board of Directors and Shareholders Garan, Incorporated We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Garan, Incorporated and its subsidiaries as at September 30, 1997 and 1996 and the related consolidated statements of earnings, shareholders' equity and cash flows for each of the three fiscal years in the period ended September 30, 1997. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company'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.
