SEE ACCOMPANYING NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS. 7 PARAGON TRADE BRANDS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE THIRTEEN AND TWENTY-SIX WEEK PERIOD ENDED JUNE 25, 2000 (DOLLAR AMOUNTS IN THOUSANDS EXCEPT SHARE AND PER SHARE DATA) NOTE 1: CHAPTER 11 PROCEEDINGS AND REORGANIZATION The Company previously disclosed that The Procter & Gamble Company ("P&G") had filed a lawsuit against it in the United States District Court for the District of Delaware (the "Delaware District Court") alleging that the Company's "Ultra" disposable baby diaper products infringed two of P&G's dual cuff diaper patents. On December 30, 1997, the Delaware District Court issued a Judgment and Opinion (the "Delaware Judgment"), which found that two of P&G's dual cuff diaper patents were valid and infringed by certain of the Company's disposable diaper products, while also rejecting the Company's patent infringement claims against P&G. While the final damages number of approximately $178,400 was not entered by the Delaware District Court until June 2, 1998, the Company originally estimated the liability and associated litigation costs to be approximately $200,000. The amount of the award resulted in violation of certain covenants under the Company's then-existing bank loan agreements. As a result, the issuance of the Delaware Judgment and the uncertainty it created caused an immediate and critical liquidity issue for the Company. On January 6, 1998, the Company filed for relief under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code, 11 U.S.C. Section 101 ET SEQ., in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Northern District of Georgia (Case No. 98-60390) (the "Chapter 11 filing"). None of the Company's subsidiaries were included in the Chapter 11 filing. On February 2, 1999, the Company entered into a Settlement Agreement with P&G which fully and finally settled all matters related to the Delaware Judgment, the Company's appeal of the Delaware Judgment, P&G's motion to find the Company in contempt of the Delaware Judgment and P&G's proof of claim filed in the Company's Chapter 11 reorganization proceeding. The P&G Settlement Agreement was approved by the Bankruptcy Court on August 6, 1999, (the "P&G Approval Order"). The Official Committee of Equity Security Holders (the "Equity Committee") appealed the P&G Approval Order. On October 26, 1995, Kimberly-Clark Corporation ("K-C") filed a lawsuit against the Company in U.S. District Court in Dallas, Texas, alleging infringement by the Company's products of two K-C patents relating to dual cuffs. On March 19, 1999, the Company entered into a Settlement Agreement with K-C which fully and finally settled all matters related to the Texas action, including the Company's counterclaims, and K-C's proof of claim filed in the Company's Chapter 11 reorganization proceeding. The K-C Settlement Agreement was approved by the Bankruptcy Court on August 6, 1999, (the "K-C Approval Order"). The Equity Committee appealed the K-C Approval Order. On or about November 15, 1999, the Company and the Official Committee of Unsecured Creditors (the "Creditors' Committee"), as co-proponents, filed the Second Amended Plan of Reorganization (as subsequently modified through January 13, 2000, the "Plan") and a related Disclosure Statement (as subsequently modified through November 18, 1999, the "Disclosure Statement") with the Bankruptcy Court. The Plan incorporated a proposed investment by Wellspring Capital Management LLC ("Wellspring"), a private investment company, to acquire the Company as part of a plan of reorganization (the "Wellspring Transaction"). By order dated November 18, 1999, the Bankruptcy Court approved the Disclosure Statement. At such time, the Bankruptcy Court also approved certain voting procedures and established January 7, 2000, as the voting deadline for the Plan and January 13, 2000, as the date for a hearing to consider confirmation of the Plan. A confirmation hearing was held by the Bankruptcy Court on January 13, 2000. By Order dated January 13, 2000, the Bankruptcy Court confirmed the Plan. On January 28, 2000, Paragon was reorganized pursuant to the Plan through the consummation of the Wellspring Transaction. As contemplated under the Plan, the Equity Committee withdrew with prejudice its appeals of the P&G Approval Order and the K-C Approval Order. 8 PARAGON TRADE BRANDS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (CONTINUED) As a result of the Chapter 11 filing, the Company incurred significant costs for professional fees. The Company was also required to pay certain expenses of the Creditors' Committee and the Equity Committee including professional fees, to the extent allowed by the Bankruptcy Court. Pursuant to the Plan, a reserve was established from which any remaining professional fees and expenses related to the Chapter 11 reorganization proceeding will be paid. REORGANIZATION. On January 28, 2000, the Company emerged from Chapter 11 protection as contemplated under the Plan. All pre-petition obligations were discharged. Pursuant to the Plan, Wellspring and certain of its affiliates purchased an aggregate of 11,516,405 shares, or approximately 97 percent, of the common stock of the reorganized Company for cash of $115,200. This cash was paid directly to the creditors of Predecessor Company. See "PART II, ITEM 1: LEGAL PROCEEDINGS." CREDIT FACILITY. On January 28, 2000, the Company and certain subsidiaries of the Company, as guarantors, entered into a three-year $95,000 financing facility (the "Credit Facility") with a bank group led by Citicorp USA, Inc. ("Citicorp"). The maximum borrowing under the Credit Facility may not exceed the lesser of $95,000 or an amount determined by a borrowing base formula. The borrowing base formula is comprised of certain specified percentages of eligible accounts receivable, eligible inventory, equipment and personal and real property of the Company. The Credit Facility has a sub-limit of $15,000 for the issuance of letters of credit. The Credit Facility contains customary financial covenants. SENIOR SUBORDINATED NOTES. On January 28, 2000, the Company issued $146,000 of 11.25 percent senior subordinated notes due 2005 (the "New Notes") as contemplated under the Plan. The New Notes are guaranteed by certain domestic subsidiaries and are not callable until February 1, 2003. Interest is payable semi-annually and during the first two years can be paid in kind if free cash flow, as defined in the indenture, falls below projected levels. The New Notes are subordinated in right of payment to the payment of all senior indebtedness. The New Notes contain customary restrictive covenants. FRESH START ACCOUNTING. The Company has recorded the reorganization and related transactions using "fresh start accounting" as required by Statement of Position 90-7 ("SOP 90-7") issued by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. Fresh start accounting was required because there was more than a 50 percent change in the ownership of the Company and the reorganization value of the assets was less than the post-petition liabilities and allowed claims in the bankruptcy. The approximate $360,000 reorganization value of the Company was determined by management, with assistance from independent financial professionals. The methodology employed involved estimation of enterprise value which was determined to be approximately $280,000, including approximately $15,000 in borrowings under the Credit Facility, taking into account a discounted cash flow analysis. Approximately $76,000 of post-petition liabilities were assumed by the Company. Current assets and current liabilities have been recorded at their historical carrying values as such amounts approximate their fair market value. Property and equipment have been recorded at their appraised value as determined by an independent appraisal based on a "continued use value", which assumes that the assets will be used for the purpose for which they were designed and constructed. Property held for sale is valued at estimated net realizable value. The Company's foreign investments were valued based on an estimation of enterprise value taking into account a discounted cash flow analysis. Other non-current assets are stated at historical carrying values which approximate fair value. As the reorganization value was less than the current valuations of the assets, as stated above, the resulting deficit was allocated proportionally to the non-current assets. 9 PARAGON TRADE BRANDS, INC.

10 PARAGON TRADE BRANDS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (CONTINUED) NOTE 2: BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING AND REPORTING POLICIES BASIS OF PRESENTATION The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Paragon Trade Brands, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany transactions and accounts have been eliminated. The accompanying consolidated balance sheet as of December 26, 1999, which has been derived from audited financial statements, and the unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to those rules and regulations, although the Company believes that the disclosures made are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. It is suggested that these consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Company's latest annual report on Form 10-K. In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for a fair statement of the results of the interim periods have been included. All such interim adjustments are of a normal recurring nature except for the bankruptcy-related costs and the extraordinary gain. The results of operations for the twenty-six week period ending June 25, 2000, should not be regarded as necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year. CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS The Company considers all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. Deposits with banks are federally insured in limited amounts. NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS The Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") has issued Statement No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities," which must be adopted in the Company's fiscal year 2001. This statement establishes accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments - including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts - and for hedging activities. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the statement on the Company's financial statements. The Emerging Issues Task Force (the "Task Force") of the Financial Accounting Standards Board reached a consensus on Issue 00-14, ACCOUNTING FOR CERTAIN SALES INCENTIVES. The issue addresses the accounting for sales incentives offered voluntarily by a vendor without charge to customers that can be used in, or that are exercisable by a customer as a result of a single exchange transaction. For sales incentives resulting in the right to a rebate, the Task Force concluded that recognition should occur at the date of sale, measured based upon the estimated amount of refunds expected to be claimed by customers. Indicators pointing to the ability to make a reasonable and reliable estimate of the amount of future rebates or refunds were developed. If the amount cannot be reliably estimated, it should be assumed that all customers will request a refund. When recognized, a cash incentive should be classified as a reduction of revenue. Upon application of the consensus, which is required for the Company in the fourth quarter of 2000, prior period financial statements should be reclassified to conform to the consensus. To date, the Company has not completed its analysis of the impact which Issue 00-14 may have on the reported amount of sales. 11 PARAGON TRADE BRANDS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (CONTINUED) NOTE 3: BANKRUPTCY COSTS Bankruptcy costs were directly associated with the Company's Chapter 11 reorganization proceedings and consisted of the following:

NOTE 4: INCOME TAXES Income tax benefits associated with domestic operating losses and deductible temporary differences for the periods presented have been fully reserved with a valuation allowance on the basis that the realization of such benefits is dependent upon sufficient taxable income in the future. The Company has recorded a valuation allowance for substantially all deferred tax assets as the Company does not believe it is more likely than not that the benefits will be realized. Income tax benefits recognized in the accompanying financial statements for the periods presented relate to recoverable income taxes for jurisdictions outside the United States. The Company accounts for income taxes based on the liability method and, accordingly, deferred income taxes are provided to reflect temporary differences between financial and tax reporting. A significant component of deferred income taxes include temporary differences due to reserves not currently deductible ($46,100) and operating loss carryforwards ("NOLs") ($28,900). These deferred tax assets may only be realized as an offset to future taxable income. Also, the ability to utilize the NOLs and a portion of the other deferred tax assets is subject to limitation under Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code as a result of the change in ownership that occurred in connection with the Bankruptcy Reorganization. To realize the full benefit of the deferred tax asset, the Company needs to generate approximately $223,400 in future taxable income. Accordingly, the Company has estimated that this limitation on the annual utilization of built-in deductions will be approximately $6,800. The Company currently has fully reserved its net deferred tax asset of $86,000. NOTE 5: COMPREHENSIVE INCOME (LOSS) The following are the components of comprehensive income (loss):

SENIOR SUBORDINATED NOTES. On January 28, 2000, the Company issued $146,000 of 11.25 percent senior subordinated notes due 2005 as contemplated under the Plan. The New Notes are guaranteed by certain domestic subsidiaries and are not callable until February 1, 2003. Interest is payable semi-annually and during the first two years can be paid in kind if free cash flow, as defined in the Indenture, falls below projected levels. The New Notes are subordinated in right of payment to the payment of all senior indebtedness. The New Notes contain customary restrictive covenants, including among other things, limitations on dividends and restricted payments, the incurrence of additional indebtedness, liens, investments, loans and advances, the sales of assets and transactions with affiliates. CREDIT FACILITY. On January 28, 2000, the Company and certain subsidiaries of the Company, as guarantors, entered into a three-year $95,000 financing facility (the "Credit Facility") with a bank group led by Citicorp USA, Inc. ("Citicorp"). The maximum borrowing under the Credit Facility may not exceed the lesser of $95,000 or an amount determined by a borrowing base formula. The borrowing base formula is comprised of certain specified percentages of eligible accounts receivable, eligible inventory, equipment and personal and real property of the Company. The Credit Facility has a sub-limit of $15,000 for the issuance of letters of credit. The Credit Facility contains customary financial covenants. As of June 25, 2000, there was an aggregate of $5,100 in letters of credit issued under the Credit Facility and no direct borrowings. See "PART I, ITEM 2: MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION - RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES". 14 PARAGON TRADE BRANDS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (CONTINUED) NOTE 11: INCOME (LOSS) PER COMMON SHARE Following is a reconciliation of the numerators and denominators of the basic and diluted income (loss) per common share:

Common stock warrants and options during the periods presented were not included in the calculation because the warrants' and options' exercise prices were greater than the average market price of the common shares for the respective periods. Diluted and basic income (loss) per share are the same for each of the periods ended June 25, 2000, January 28, 2000 and June 27, 1999, because the computation of diluted income (loss) per share was anti-dilutive. NOTE 12: LEGAL PROCEEDINGS THE PROCTER & GAMBLE COMPANY V. PARAGON TRADE BRANDS, INC. - P&G filed a lawsuit in January 1994 in the Delaware District Court alleging that the Company's "Ultra" infant disposable diaper products infringed two of P&G's dual cuff diaper patents. On December 30, 1997, the Delaware District Court issued a Judgment and Opinion finding that P&G's dual cuff patents were valid and infringed, while at the same time finding the Company's patent to be invalid, unenforceable and not infringed by P&G's products. Judgment was entered on January 6, 1998. Damages of approximately $178,400 were entered against Paragon by the Delaware District Court on June 2, 1998. At the same time, the Delaware District Court entered injunctive relief agreed upon by P&G and the Company. The Delaware Judgment had a material adverse effect on the Company's financial position and its results of operations. As a result of the District Court's Judgment, the Company filed for relief under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code, 11 U.S.C. Section 101 ET seq., in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Northern District of Georgia (Case No. 98-60390) on January 6, 1998. See "--IN RE PARAGON TRADE BRANDS, INC.," below. On February 2, 1999, the Company entered into a Settlement Agreement with P&G which fully and finally settled all matters related to the Delaware Judgment, the Company's appeal of the Delaware Judgment, P&G's motion to find the Company in contempt of the Delaware Judgment and P&G's proof of claim filed in the Company's Chapter 11 reorganization proceeding. The P&G Approval Order was issued on August 6, 1999. As a part of the settlement, the Company entered into License Agreements for the U.S. and Canada with respect to certain of the patents asserted by P&G in its proof of claim, including those asserted in the Delaware action. The U.S. and Canadian patent rights licensed by the Company permitted the Company to convert to a dual cuff baby diaper design. 15 PARAGON TRADE BRANDS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (CONTINUED) While the Company believes that the royalty rates being charged by P&G are the same royalties that will be paid by the Company's major store brand competitors for similar patent rights, these royalties, together with royalties to be paid to K-C described herein, have had, and will continue to have, a material adverse impact on the Company's future financial condition and results of operations. While these royalty costs have been partially offset by projected raw material cost savings related to the conversion to a dual cuff design, the Company's overall raw material costs have increased. KIMBERLY-CLARK CORPORATION V. PARAGON TRADE BRANDS, INC. - On October 26, 1995, K-C filed a lawsuit against the Company in the U.S. District Court in Dallas, Texas, alleging infringement by the Company's products of two K-C patents relating to dual cuffs. As a result of the Company's Chapter 11 filing, the proceedings in the K-C litigation were stayed. On March 19, 1999, the Company entered into a Settlement Agreement with K-C which fully and finally settled all matters related to the Texas action, including the Company's counterclaims, and K-C's proof of claim filed in the Company's Chapter 11 reorganization proceeding. The K-C Approval Order was issued by the Bankruptcy Court on August 6, 1999. As a part of the settlement, the Company entered into License Agreements for the U.S. and Canada with respect to the patents asserted by K-C in the Texas action. The patent rights licensed by the Company from K-C permitted the Company to convert to a dual cuff diaper design. The Company believes that the overall effective royalty rate that the Company will pay to K-C, together with royalties to be paid to P&G described above, has had, and will continue to have, a material adverse impact on the Company's future financial condition and results of operations. While these royalty costs have been partially offset by projected raw material cost savings related to the conversion to a dual cuff design, the Company's overall raw material costs have increased. As a part of the K-C License Agreement, K-C has agreed not to sue the Company on two of K-C's patents related to the use of Super Absorbent Polymer ("SAP") in diapers and training pants, so long as the Company uses SAP which exhibits certain performance characteristics (the "SAP Safe Harbor"). The Company has encountered increased product costs due to the increased price and usage of new SAP within the SAP Safe Harbor. The Company cannot predict at this time whether or when the added costs will be fully offset. IN RE PARAGON TRADE BRANDS, INC. - As described above, on December 30, 1997, the Delaware District Court issued a Judgment and Opinion in the Company's lawsuit with P&G finding that two of P&G's diaper patents were valid and infringed by the Company's "Ultra" disposable baby diapers, while also rejecting the Company's patent infringement claim against P&G. Judgment was entered on January 6, 1998. While a final damages number was not entered by the Delaware District Court until June 2, 1998, the Company originally estimated the liability and associated litigation costs to be approximately $200,000. The amount of the award resulted in violation of certain covenants under the Company's bank loan agreements. As a result, the issuance of the Delaware Judgment and the uncertainty it created caused an immediate and critical liquidity issue for the Company which necessitated the Chapter 11 filing. Subsequently, damages of approximately $178,400 were entered against Paragon by the Delaware District Court on June 2, 1998. At the same time, the Delaware District Court entered injunctive relief agreed upon by P&G and the Company. See "--THE PROCTER & GAMBLE COMPANY V. PARAGON TRADE BRANDS, INC.," above. The Chapter 11 filing prevented P&G from placing liens on the Company's assets, permitted the Company to appeal the Delaware District Court's decision in an orderly fashion and afforded the Company the opportunity to resolve liquidated and unliquidated claims against the Company which arose prior to the Chapter 11 filing. On February 2, 1999, the Company entered into a Settlement Agreement with P&G which fully and finally settled all matters related to the Delaware Judgment, the Company's appeal of the Delaware Judgment, P&G's motion to find the Company in contempt of the Delaware Judgment and P&G's proof of claim filed in the Company's Chapter 11 reorganization proceeding. See "--THE PROCTER & GAMBLE COMPANY V. PARAGON TRADE BRANDS, INC.," above. 16 PARAGON TRADE BRANDS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (CONTINUED) On March 19, 1999, the Company entered into a Settlement Agreement with K-C which fully and finally settled all matters related to the Texas action, including the Company's counterclaims, and K-C's proof of claim filed in the Company's Chapter 11 reorganization proceeding. See "--KIMBERLY-CLARK CORPORATION V. PARAGON TRADE BRANDS, INC.," above. On or about November 15, 1999, the Company and the Creditors' Committee, as co-proponents, filed the Plan and Disclosure Statement with the Bankruptcy Court. The Plan incorporated the Wellspring Transaction. By order dated November 18, 1999, the Bankruptcy Court approved the Disclosure Statement. At such time, the Bankruptcy Court also approved certain voting procedures and established January 7, 2000 as the voting deadline for the Plan and January 13, 2000, as the date for a hearing to consider confirmation of the Plan. A confirmation hearing was held by the Bankruptcy Court on January 13, 2000. By Order dated January 13, 2000, the Bankruptcy Court confirmed the Plan. On January 28, 2000, Paragon was reorganized pursuant to the Plan through the consummation of the Wellspring Transaction. As contemplated under the Plan, the Equity Committee has withdrawn with prejudice its appeals of the P&G Approval Order and the K-C Approval Order. On January 28, 2000, the Company and certain subsidiaries of the Company, as guarantors, entered into a three-year $95,000 financing facility with a bank group led by Citicorp USA, Inc. This facility is designed to supplement the Company's cash on hand and operating cash flow. As of June 25, 2000, there was an aggregate of $5,100 in letters of credit under the Credit Facility and no direct borrowings. The Credit Facility contains customary financial covenants. Legal fees and costs in connection with the Chapter 11 reorganization proceeding were significant. KIMBERLY-CLARK WORLDWIDE, INC. V. PARAGON TRADE BRANDS, INC. - On March 20, 2000, Kimberly-Clark Worldwide, Inc. ("K-C Worldwide") filed suit in the U.S. District Court in Delaware against the Company for allegedly infringing a patent related to a disposable absorbent garment with a registered graphic. The suit seeks injunctive relief, unspecified treble damages, interest and attorneys' fees and expenses. On July 31, 2000, the Company and K-C Worldwide executed a settlement agreement. The Company believes that the terms and conditions of the settlement agreement will not have a material business or financial impact on the Company. OTHER - The Company is also a party to other legal proceedings generally incidental to its activities. Although the final outcome of any legal proceeding or dispute is subject to a great many variables and cannot be predicted with any degree of certainty, the Company presently believes that any ultimate liability resulting from any or all legal proceedings or disputes to which it is a party will not have a material adverse effect on its financial condition or results of operations. NOTE 13: BANK CREDIT FACILITIES On January 28, 2000, the Company entered into the Credit Facility. The maximum borrowing under the Credit Facility may not exceed the lesser of $95,000 or an amount determined by a borrowing base formula. The borrowing base formula is comprised of certain specified percentages of eligible accounts receivable, eligible inventory, equipment and personal property and real property of the Company. The Credit Facility has a sub-limit of $15,000 for the issuance of letters of credit. Borrowings under the Credit Facility are secured by a security interest in, pledge of and lien on substantially all of the Company's North American assets and properties and the proceeds thereof. Borrowings under the Credit Facility are guaranteed by certain domestic subsidiaries and may be used to fund working capital and other general corporate purposes including acquisitions and investments in existing and new international joint ventures. The Credit Facility contains restrictive covenants, including among other things, a prohibition on dividends, limitations on the creation of additional liens and indebtedness, limitations on capital expenditures, investments, loans and advances, the sales of assets and transactions with affiliates. Financial covenants include the maintenance of minimum earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, fixed charges, coverage ratio, tangible net worth and a maximum leverage ratio. 17 PARAGON TRADE BRANDS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (CONTINUED) The Credit Facility provides that borrowings will bear interest at a rate of 1.50 percent in excess of Citibank's base rate, or at the Company's option, a rate of 2.50 percent in excess of the reserve adjusted eurodollar rate for interest periods of one, two, three or six months. After March 31, 2001, borrowing rates will be subject to a pricing grid based upon the Company's leverage ratio and could decrease by a maximum of .5 percent and increase by a maximum of .25 percent. The Company will pay a commitment fee of .5 percent per annum on the unused portion of the Credit Facility, a letter of credit fee equal to 2.75 percent per annum on the average outstanding letters of credit and certain other fees. As of June 25, 2000, there was an aggregate of $5,100 in letters of credit issued under the Credit Facility and no direct borrowings. See "PART I, ITEM 2: MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITIONS - RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES " herein. NOTE 14: SEGMENT REPORTING The Company operates principally in two segments that are organized based on the nature of the products sold: (I) infant care and (ii) feminine care and adult incontinence. Each operating segment contains closely related products that are unique to that particular segment. Management evaluates the performance of its operating segments separately to individually monitor the different factors impacting financial performance. Segment operating profit is comprised of net sales less cost of sales and selling, general and administrative expense. Loss contingencies and asset impairments are recorded in the appropriate operating segment. Certain administrative expenses common to all operating segments are currently allocated to the infant care operating segment. International investments, financial costs, such as interest income and expense, and income taxes are managed by, and recorded in, the corporate and other operating segment. Net sales and operating profit (loss) for the segments were as follows:

19 PART I. FINANCIAL INFORMATION ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION PARAGON TRADE BRANDS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES CHAPTER 11 PROCEEDINGS AND REORGANIZATION The Company previously disclosed that The Procter & Gamble Company ("P&G") had filed a lawsuit against it in the United States District Court for the District of Delaware (the "Delaware District Court") alleging that the Company's "Ultra" disposable baby diaper products infringed two of P&G's dual cuff diaper patents. On December 30, 1997, the Delaware District Court issued a Judgment and Opinion which found that two of P&G's dual cuff diaper patents were valid and infringed by certain of the Company's disposable diaper products, while also rejecting the Company's patent infringement claims against P&G. While the final damages number of approximately $178.4 million was not entered by the Delaware District Court until June 2, 1998, the Company originally estimated the liability and associated litigation costs to be approximately $200 million. The amount of the award resulted in violation of certain covenants under the Company's then-existing bank loan agreements. As a result, the issuance of the Delaware Judgment and the uncertainty it created caused an immediate and critical liquidity issue for the Company. On January 6, 1998, the Company filed for relief under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code, 11 U.S.C. Section 101 ET SEQ., in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Northern District of Georgia (Case No. 98-60390) (the "Chapter 11 filing"). None of the Company's subsidiaries were included in the Chapter 11 filing. On February 2, 1999, the Company entered into a Settlement Agreement with P&G which fully and finally settled all matters related to the Delaware Judgment, the Company's appeal of the Delaware Judgment, P&G's motion to find the Company in contempt of the Delaware Judgment and P&G's proof of claim filed in the Company's Chapter 11 reorganization proceeding. The P&G Settlement Agreement was approved by the Bankruptcy Court on August 6, 1999, (the "P&G Approval Order"). The Official Committee of Equity Security Holders (the "Equity Committee") appealed the P&G Approval Order. See "PART II, ITEM 1: LEGAL PROCEEDINGS." On October 26, 1995, Kimberly-Clark Corporation ("K-C") filed a lawsuit against the Company in U.S. District Court in Dallas, Texas, alleging infringement by the Company's products of two K-C patents relating to dual cuffs. On March 19, 1999, the Company entered into a Settlement Agreement with K-C which fully and finally settled all matters related to the Texas action, including the Company's counterclaims, and K-C's proof of claim filed in the Company's Chapter 11 reorganization proceeding. The K-C Settlement Agreement was approved by the Bankruptcy Court on August 6, 1999, (the "K-C Approval Order"). The Equity Committee appealed the K-C Approval Order. See "PART II, ITEM 1: LEGAL PROCEEDINGS." On or about November 15, 1999, the Company and the Official Committee of Unsecured Creditors (the "Creditors' Committee"), as co-proponents, filed the Second Amended Plan of Reorganization (as subsequently modified through January 13, 2000, the "Plan") and a related Disclosure Statement (as subsequently modified through November 18, 1999, the "Disclosure Statement") with the Bankruptcy Court. The Plan incorporated a proposed investment by Wellspring Capital Management LLC ("Wellspring"), a private investment company, to acquire the Company as part of a plan of reorganization (the "Wellspring Transaction"). By order dated November 18, 1999, the Bankruptcy Court approved the Disclosure Statement. At such time, the Bankruptcy Court also approved certain voting procedures and established January 7, 2000, as the voting deadline for the Plan and January 13, 2000, as the date for a hearing to consider confirmation of the Plan. A confirmation hearing was held by the Bankruptcy Court on January 13, 2000. By Order dated January 13, 2000, the Bankruptcy Court confirmed the Plan. On January 28, 2000, Paragon was reorganized pursuant to the Plan through the consummation of the Wellspring Transaction. As contemplated under the Plan, the Equity Committee has withdrawn with prejudice its appeals of the P&G Approval Order and the K-C Approval Order. See "PART II, ITEM 1: LEGAL PROCEEDINGS." As a result of the Chapter 11 filing, the Company incurred significant costs for professional fees. The Company was also required to pay certain expenses of the Creditors' Committee and the Equity Committee including professional fees, to the 20 extent allowed by the Bankruptcy Court. Pursuant to the Plan, a reserve was established from which any remaining professional fees and expenses related to the Chapter 11 reorganization proceeding will be paid. See "PART II, ITEM 1: LEGAL PROCEEDINGS." Trading in the common stock of the Company on the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE") was suspended prior to the opening of trading on July 8, 1999. As of July 9, 1999, the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board (the "OTCBB") began publishing quotations of the Company's common stock under the symbol PGNFQ. As a result of the Plan, on February 2, 2000, the OTCBB ceased quotations of the Company's common stock. Quotation of the Company's common stock resumed on the OTCBB as of March 30, 2000, under the symbol PGTR. REORGANIZATION. On January 28, 2000, the Company emerged from Chapter 11 protection as contemplated under the Plan. All pre-petition obligations were discharged. Pursuant to the Plan, Wellspring and certain of its affiliates purchased an aggregate of 11,516,405 shares, or approximately 97 percent, of the common stock of the reorganized Company for cash of $115.2 million. The cash was paid directly to the creditors of Predecessor Company. See "PART II, ITEM 1: LEGAL PROCEEDINGS." CREDIT FACILITY. On January 28, 2000, the Company and certain subsidiaries of the Company, as guarantors, entered into a three-year $95 million financing facility (the "Credit Facility") with a bank group led by Citicorp USA, Inc. ("Citicorp"). The maximum borrowing under the Credit Facility may not exceed the lesser of $95 million or an amount determined by a borrowing base formula. The borrowing base formula is comprised of certain specified percentages of eligible accounts receivable, eligible inventory, equipment and personal property and real property of the Company. The Credit Facility has a sub-limit of $15 million for the issuance of letters of credit. The Credit Facility contains customary financial covenants. SENIOR SUBORDINATED NOTES. On January 28, 2000, the Company issued $146.0 million of 11.25 percent senior subordinated notes due 2005 (the "New Notes") as contemplated under the Plan. The New Notes are guaranteed by certain domestic subsidiaries and are not callable until February 1, 2003. Interest is payable semi-annually and during the first two years can be paid in kind if free cash flow, as defined in the indenture, falls below projected levels. The New Notes are subordinated in right of payment to the payment of all senior indebtedness. The New Notes contain customary restrictive covenants. FRESH START ACCOUNTING. The Company has recorded the reorganization and related transactions using "fresh start accounting" as required by Statement of Position 90-7 ("SOP 90-7") issued by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. The Company operates principally in two segments that are organized based on the nature of the products sold: (I) infant care and (ii) feminine care and adult incontinence. Each operating segment contains closely related products that are unique to that particular segment. The results of the Company's international investments in joint ventures in Mexico, Argentina, Brazil and China are reported in the corporate and other segment. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Effective January 28, 2000, the Company emerged from Chapter 11 bankruptcy proceedings and implemented "fresh start accounting." Accordingly, all assets and liabilities were restated to reflect their respective fair values. The consolidated financial statements after that date are those of a new reporting entity and are not comparable to the Pre-Confirmation periods. However, for purposes of this discussion, the twenty-one weeks ended June 25, 2000, (Post-Confirmation) have been combined with the five weeks ended January 28, 2000, (Pre-Confirmation) and then compared to 26 weeks ended June 27, 1999. Differences between periods due to fresh start accounting adjustments are explained when necessary. The following table is included solely for use in comparative analysis of results of operations, and to complement management's discussion and analysis: 21

THIRTEEN WEEKS ENDED JUNE 25, 2000 COMPARED TO THIRTEEN WEEKS ENDED JUNE 27, 1999 A net loss of $2.0 million was incurred in the second quarter of 2000 compared to a net loss of $8.4 million in the second quarter of 1999. Increased unit volume, improved product mix, reduced manufacturing and selling, general and administrative costs all contributed to the improvement compared to the second quarter of 1999. The second quarter of 2000 results were negatively impacted by approximately $3.2 million of non-recurring costs, primarily severance for former senior management. The second quarter of 1999 results were negatively impacted by the costs associated with cessation of manufacturing operations at the Company's Canadian subsidiary, Paragon Trade Brands (Canada) Inc.'s Brampton, Ontario facility in June 1999. Basic loss per share for the thirteen weeks ended June 25, 2000, was $.17. Comparison to previous periods is not meaningful due to the Company's emergence from bankruptcy and the implementation of fresh start accounting. Infant care operating profit was $3.7 million in the second quarter of 2000 compared to an operating loss of $4.4 million in the second quarter of 1999. Increased unit volume, improved product mix, lower manufacturing costs and lower selling, general and administrative costs contributed to the improved results. Second quarter operating profit was negatively impacted by approximately $3.2 million of non-recurring costs, primarily severance for former senior management. The second quarter of 1999 operating profit was negatively impacted by the costs associated with cessation of manufacturing operations at the Company's Canadian subsidiary, Paragon Trade Brands (Canada) Inc.'s Brampton, Ontario facility in June 1999. Feminine care and adult incontinence operating losses were $3.8 million in the second quarter of 2000 compared to an operating loss of $3.3 million in the second quarter of 1999. Losses are expected to continue until volume is significantly increased to absorb existing manufacturing capacity. The Company experienced greater than anticipated operating losses in its feminine care and adult incontinence businesses and expects these losses to continue near-term. The Company has developed a business plan for its feminine care and adult incontinence business. The Company has not recorded any adjustments in its financial statements relating to the recoverability of the operating assets of the feminine care and adult incontinence business. The Company's ability to recover its investment is dependent upon the successful execution of the Company's feminine care and adult incontinence business plan. While there can be no assurances, management believes that its investment in the feminine care and adult incontinence business is recoverable. See "RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES" herein. 22 NET SALES Overall net sales were $131.7 million in the second quarter of 2000 compared to $117.8 million in the second quarter of 1999. Infant care net sales increased 11.6 percent to $128.5 million in the second quarter of 2000 compared to $115.1 million in the second quarter of 1999. Unit sales increased 11.9 percent to 811 million units compared to 725 million units in the second quarter of 1999. The increase in net sales and units was due to a favorable product mix associated with the introduction of a new training pant product and the launch of certain destination store brand product and marketing programs. The Company anticipates higher volume during the second half of 2000 compared to 1999 due to the training pant product and destination store brand programs discussed above. In response to competitive initiatives, the Company intends to implement a package count change in the second half of 2000 which may result in an effective price increase. It is difficult to predict the timing and amount of the price increase to be realized. Feminine care and adult incontinence sales increased to $3.2 million in the second quarter of 2000 compared to $2.8 million in the second quarter of 1999 due to the shipment of product to new customers. COST OF SALES Overall cost of sales in the second quarter of 2000 was $112.7 million compared to $103.4 million in the second quarter of 1999. As a percentage of net sales, cost of sales was 85.6 percent in the second quarter of 2000 compared to 87.8 percent in the second quarter of 1999. Infant care cost of sales was $106.0 million in the second quarter of 2000 compared to $97.4 million in the second quarter of 1999. As a percentage of net sales, infant care cost of sales was 82.5 percent in the second quarter of 2000 compared to 84.6 percent in 1999. This decrease in costs as a percentage of sales was due to improved manufacturing efficiencies, lower plant overhead costs, the closure of the Brampton, Canada manufacturing facility during the second quarter of 1999 and lower depreciation costs. These favorable items were partially offset by higher pulp prices. Infant care raw material prices, with the exception of pulp, were at lower price levels in the second quarter of 2000 compared to the second quarter of 1999. Pulp prices started to increase during the second half of 1999 and are expected to increase during the remainder of 2000. Pulp and oil based raw material prices are expected to increase during the remainder of 2000. Infant care depreciation costs were $4.9 million in the second quarter of 2000 compared to $6.7 million in the second quarter of 1999. The decrease is partially due to lower asset values as a result of fresh start accounting. Feminine care and adult incontinence cost of sales was $6.7 million in the second quarter of 2000 compared to $6.0 million in the second quarter of 1999. Overall cost of sales in this segment is expected to remain greater than net sales until volume is significantly increased to absorb existing manufacturing capacity. See "RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES" herein. SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES SG&A expenses were $18.1 million in the second quarter of 2000 compared to $19.7 million in the second quarter of 1999. As a percentage of net sales, these expenses were 13.8 percent in the second quarter of 2000 compared to 16.7 percent in 1999. The decrease in SG&A is primarily attributable to lower sales and marketing expenditures and information technology expenses which more than offset former senior management severance costs. Depreciation and amortization costs included in SG&A decreased to $.8 million in the second quarter of 2000 compared to $1.7 million in the second quarter of 1999. The decrease in depreciation and amortization is partially due to the elimination of goodwill through fresh start accounting. The Company will incur higher packaging artwork and development costs in the second half of 2000 due to the package count change discussed above. RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT Research and development expenses were $1.0 million in the second quarter of 2000 compared to $.9 million in the second quarter of 1999. 23 INTEREST EXPENSE Interest expense was $4.3 million in the second quarter of 2000 compared to $.1 million in the second quarter of 1999. The increase is due to interest costs associated with the New Notes bearing an annual interest rate of 11.25 percent and with borrowings under the Credit Facility. There were no borrowings under the DIP Credit Facility during the first quarter of 1999. EQUITY IN EARNINGS OF UNCONSOLIDATED SUBSIDIARIES The equity in earnings of unconsolidated subsidiaries was $1.4 million in the second quarter of 2000 compared to $.8 million in the second quarter of 1999. The increase in earnings reflects improved earnings at Paragon Mabesa International, S.A. de C.V. BANKRUPTCY COSTS There were no direct bankruptcy costs in the second quarter of 2000 compared to $2.5 million in the second quarter of 1999. INCOME TAXES Income tax benefits associated with domestic operating losses and deductible temporary differences for the periods presented have been fully reserved with a valuation allowance on the basis that the realization of such benefits is dependent upon sufficient taxable income in the future. The Company has recorded a valuation allowance for substantially all deferred tax assets as the Company does not believe it is more likely than not that the benefits will be realized. Income tax benefits recognized in the accompanying financial statements for the periods presented relate to recoverable income taxes for jurisdictions outside the United States. TWENTY-SIX WEEKS ENDED JUNE 25, 2000 COMPARED TO TWENTY-SIX WEEKS ENDED JUNE 27, 1999 RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Net income of $112.0 million were reported in the first half of 2000 compared to a net loss of $15.6 million in the first half of 1999. Included in the results for the first half of 2000 was an extraordinary gain of $123.0 million associated with forgiveness of debt that resulted from the reorganization of the Company in accordance with the Plan. Increased unit volume, improved product mix, reduced manufacturing and selling, general and administrative costs all contributed to the operating improvement compared to the first half of 1999. The first half of 2000 results were negatively impacted by approximately $3.6 million of non-recurring costs, primarily severance for former senior management. The first half of 1999 results were negatively impacted by costs associated with price concessions made to export customers to address product acceptance issues and the cessation of manufacturing operations at the Company's Canadian subsidiary, Paragon Trade Brands (Canada) Inc.'s Brampton, Ontario facility in June 1999. Included in the first half of 2000 results are bankruptcy costs of $10.4 million compared to $4.5 million in the first half of 1999. Basic and diluted income per share for the twenty-six weeks ended June 25, 2000, was $9.38. Comparison to other periods is not meaningful due to the Company's emergence from bankruptcy and the related extraordinary gain. Infant care operating profit was $10.4 million in the first half of 2000 compared to an operating loss of $6.9 million in the first half of 1999. Increased unit volume, improved product mix, lower manufacturing costs and lower selling, general and administrative costs contributed to the improved results. First half infant care operating profit was negatively impacted by approximately $3.6 million of non-recurring costs, primarily severance costs for former senior management. The first half of 1999 results were negatively impacted by the costs associated with price concessions made to export customers to address product acceptance issues and the cessation of manufacturing operations at the Company's Canadian subsidiary, Paragon Trade Brands (Canada) Inc.'s Brampton, Ontario facility in June 1999. Feminine care and adult incontinence operating losses were $6.8 million in the first half of 2000 compared to an operating loss of $6.6 million in the first half of 1999. Losses are expected to continue until volume is significantly increased to absorb existing manufacturing capacity. The Company experienced greater than anticipated operating losses in its feminine care and adult incontinence businesses and expects these losses to continue near-term. The Company has developed a business plan for its feminine care and adult incontinence business. The Company has not recorded any adjustments in its financial statements relating to the recoverability of the operating assets of the feminine care and adult incontinence business. The 24 Company's ability to recover its investment is dependent upon the successful execution of the Company's feminine care and adult incontinence business plan. While there can be no assurances, management believes that its investment in the feminine care and adult incontinence business is recoverable. See "RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES" herein. NET SALES Overall net sales were $260.8 million in the first half 2000 compared to $244.1million in the first half 1999. Infant care net sales increased 6.5 percent to $254.0 million in the first half of 2000 compared to $238.4 million in the first half of 1999. Unit sales increased 4.2 percent to 1,602 million units compared to 1,538 million units in the first half of 1999. The increase in net sales and units was due to a favorable product mix associated with the introduction of a new training pant product and the launch of certain destination store brand product and marketing programs. Feminine care and adult incontinence sales increased to $6.8 million in the first half of 2000 compared to $5.6 million in the first half of 1999 due to the shipment of product to new customers. COST OF SALES Overall cost of sales in the first half of 2000 was $218.3 million compared to $212.9 million in the first half of 1999. As a percentage of net sales, cost of sales was 83.7 percent in the first half of 2000 compared to 87.2 percent in the first half of 1999. Infant care cost of sales was $205.1 million in the first half of 2000 compared to $201.0 million in the first half of 1999. As a percentage of net sales, infant care cost of sales was 80.7 percent in the first half of 2000 compared to 84.3 percent in first half of 1999. This decrease in costs as a percentage of sales was due to improved manufacturing efficiencies, lower plant overhead costs, the closure of the Brampton, Canada manufacturing facility during the second quarter of 1999 and lower depreciation costs. These favorable items were partially offset by higher pulp prices. Infant care raw material prices, with the exception of pulp, were at lower price levels in the first half of 2000 compared to the first half of 1999. Infant care depreciation costs were $9.9 million in the first half of 2000 compared to $12.5 million in first half of 1999. The decrease is partially due to lower asset values as a result of fresh start accounting. Feminine care and adult incontinence cost of sales was $13.2 million for the first half of 2000 compared to $11.9 million in the first half of 1999. Overall cost of sales in this segment is expected to remain greater than net sales until volume is significantly increased to absorb existing manufacturing capacity. See "RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES" herein. SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES SG&A expenses were $37.0 million in the first half of 2000 compared to $41.2 million in the first half of 1999. As a percentage of net sales, these expenses were 14.2 percent in the first half of 2000 compared to 16.9 percent in 1999. The decrease in SG&A is primarily attributable to lower sales and marketing expenditures and information technology expenses which more than offset former senior management severance costs. Depreciation and amortization costs included in SG&A decreased to $1.7 million in the second quarter of 2000 compared to $3.5 million in the first half of 1999. The decrease in depreciation and amortization is partially due to the elimination of goodwill through fresh start accounting. RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT Research and development expenses were $2.0 million in the first half of 2000 compared to $1.9 million in the first half of 1999. INTEREST EXPENSE Interest expense was $7.2 million in the first half of 2000 compared to $.2 million in the first half of 1999. The increase is due to interest costs associated with the New Notes bearing an annual interest rate of 11.25 percent and with borrowings under the Credit Facility. There were no borrowings under the DIP Credit Facility during the first half of 1999. 25 EQUITY IN EARNINGS OF UNCONSOLIDATED SUBSIDIARIES The equity in earnings of unconsolidated subsidiaries was $1.7 million in the first half of 2000 compared to $1.1 million in the first half of 1999. The increase in earnings reflects improved earnings at Paragon Mabesa International, S.A. de C.V. BANKRUPTCY COSTS Bankruptcy costs were $10.4 million in the first half of 2000 compared to $4.5 million in the first half of 1999. The increase in costs was primarily due to professional fees associated with the exit from bankruptcy as well as $3.3 million in confirmation bonuses paid to employees. EXTRAORDINARY GAIN FROM DISCHARGE OF DEBT During the period ending January 28, 2000, an extraordinary gain of $123.0 million was recorded for the discharge of indebtedness that resulted from the forgiveness of certain liabilities in accordance with the Company's plan of reorganization. INCOME TAXES Income tax benefits associated with domestic operating losses and deductible temporary differences for the periods presented have been fully reserved with a valuation allowance on the basis that the realization of such benefits is dependent upon sufficient taxable income in the future. The Company has recorded a valuation allowance for substantially all deferred tax assets as the Company does not believe it is more likely than not that the benefits will be realized. Income tax benefits recognized in the accompanying financial statements for the periods presented relate to recoverable income taxes for jurisdictions outside the United States. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES On a pro forma basis, the cash flows for the twenty-one weeks ended June 25, 2000, (Successor Company) and the five weeks ended January 28, 2000, (Predecessor Company) have been combined for purposes of comparison to the twenty-six weeks ended June 27, 1999. During the first half of 2000, cash flow from net income (loss) excluding non-cash charges was a negative $1.3 million compared to a positive $1.5 million in the first half of 1999. Despite improved operating results, the decrease in cash flow was caused by the $10.3 million of costs associated with the exit from bankruptcy. During the first half of 2000, cash flow was positively impacted by a $10.5 million reduction in accounts receivable, inventories and prepaid expenses. The positive cash flow was partially offset by a decrease in accounts payable and checks issued but not cleared. Cash flow was also positively impacted by $2.3 million of proceeds from property and equipment sales and $3.4 million in scheduled repayments of advances to an unconsolidated subsidiary. Capital expenditures were $5.4 million for the first half of 2000 compared to capital expenditures of $13.6 million, including approximately $1.5 million of computer software and consulting costs for the first half of 1999. Capital spending is expected to be approximately $32.0 million during 2000 which the Company expects will be funded through a combination of internally generated funds, cash on hand and borrowings under the Credit Facility. Cash produced from operations and cash and cash equivalents supported an additional investment of $1.2 million in the Company's Goodbaby joint venture in China during the first quarter of 2000. On January 28, 2000, the Company entered into the Credit Facility. The maximum borrowing under the Credit Facility may not exceed the lesser of $95.0 million or an amount determined by a borrowing base formula. The borrowing base formula is comprised of certain specified percentages of eligible accounts receivable, eligible inventory, equipment and personal property and real property of the Company. The Credit Facility has a sub-limit of $15.0 million for the issuance of letters of credit. Borrowings under the Credit Facility are secured by a security interest in, pledge of and lien on substantially all of the Company's North American assets and properties and the proceeds thereof. Borrowings under the Credit Facility are guaranteed by certain domestic subsidiaries and may be used to fund working capital and other general corporate purposes including acquisitions and investments in existing and new international joint ventures. The Credit Facility 26 contains customary restrictive covenants, including among other things, a prohibition on dividends, limitations on the creation of additional liens and indebtedness, limitations on capital expenditures, investments, loans and advances, the sales of assets and transactions with affiliates. Financial covenants include the maintenance of minimum earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, fixed charges, coverage ratio, tangible net worth and a maximum leverage ratio. The Credit Facility provides that borrowings will bear interest at a rate of 1.50 percent in excess of Citibank's base rate, or at the Company's option, a rate of 2.50 percent in excess of the reserve adjusted eurodollar rate for interest periods of one, two, three or six months. After March 31, 2001, borrowing rates will be subject to a pricing grid based upon the Company's leverage ratio and could decrease by a maximum of .5 percent and increase by a maximum of .25 percent. The Company will pay a commitment fee of .5 percent per annum on the unused portion of the Credit Facility, a letter of credit fee equal to 2.75 percent per annum on the average outstanding letters of credit and certain other fees. On January 28, 2000, the Company borrowed approximately $15.0 million to consummate the Plan which was primarily used to extinguish $13.0 million in pre-petition liabilities subject to compromise. As of June 25, 2000, the Company had an aggregate of $5.1 million in letters of credit under the Credit Facility and no direct borrowings. In connection with the Chapter 11 filing, on January 30, 1998, the Bankruptcy Court entered a Final Order approving the DIP Credit Facility as provided under the Revolving Credit and Guarantee Agreement dated as of January 7, 1998, among the Company, as Borrower, certain subsidiaries of the Company, as guarantors, and a bank group led by The Chase Manhattan Bank ("Chase"). Pursuant to the terms of the DIP Credit Facility, as amended and restated as of June 14, 1999, Chase and a syndicate of banks made available to the Company a revolving credit and letter of credit facility in an aggregate principal amount of $75.0 million. The Company's maximum borrowing under the DIP Credit Facility could not exceed the lesser of $75.0 million or an available amount as determined by a borrowing base formulation. The borrowing base formulation was comprised of certain specified percentages of eligible accounts receivable, eligible inventory, equipment and personal and real property of the Company. The DIP Credit Facility had a sublimit of $10.0 million for the issuance of letters of credit. The DIP Credit Facility expired on January 28, 2000, in accordance with its terms and was replaced with the Credit Facility. FUTURE REALIZATION OF NET DEFERRED TAX ASSET The Company accounts for income taxes based on the liability method and, accordingly, deferred income taxes are provided to reflect temporary differences between financial and tax reporting. A significant component of deferred income taxes includes temporary differences due to reserves not currently deductible ($46.1 million) and operating loss carryforwards ("NOLs") ($28.9 million). These deferred tax assets may only be realized as an offset to future taxable income. Also, the ability to utilize the NOLs and a portion of the other deferred tax assets is subject to limitation under Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code as a result of the change in ownership that occurred in connection with the Bankruptcy Reorganization. To realize the full benefit of the deferred tax asset, the Company needs to generate approximately $223.4 million in future taxable income. Accordingly, the Company has estimated that this limitation on the annual utilization of built-in deductions will be approximately $6.8 million. The Company currently has fully reserved its net deferred tax asset of $86.0 million. See "--INCOME TAXES." RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES INCREASED COSTS. As a part of the License Agreements entered into in connection with the Company's settlements with P&G and K-C, the Company has incurred and will continue to incur significant added costs in the form of running royalties payable to both parties for sales of the licensed diaper and training pant products. While the Company believes that the royalties being charged by P&G and K-C under their respective License Agreements are approximately the same royalties that will be paid by the Company's major store brand competitors for similar patent rights, the royalties will have a material adverse impact on the Company's future financial condition and results of operations. While these royalty costs have been partially offset by projected raw material cost savings related to the conversion to a dual cuff product, the Company's overall raw material costs have increased. Further, the Company's operating results may be adversely affected by anticipated increases in raw materials prices, primarily fluff pulp, in 2000. In addition, as a part of the License Agreement entered into in connection with the K-C Settlement Agreement, the Company has changed to a new SAP for its diapers and training pants which exhibits certain performance characteristics.("the SAP Safe Harbor"). The Company has encountered increased product costs due to the increased price and usage of new SAP within the SAP Safe Harbor. The Company cannot predict at this time whether or when the added costs will be fully offset. 27 PRICING. Price increases are needed to fully offset the added royalty cost being incurred by the Company pursuant to the P&G and K-C settlements described above. The Company expects to implement an effective price increase as a result of a package count change that the Company intends to implement in the second half of 2000. Should the Company not be able to realize future price increases, its margins are expected to continue to be negatively impacted. REALIZATION OF INVESTMENT IN FEMININE CARE AND ADULT INCONTINENCE BUSINESS. Given the slow start-up of the feminine care and adult incontinence business, which was exacerbated by the Company's Chapter 11 filing, and given the resulting feminine care and adult incontinence losses, the Company's ability to recover its investment in such business is highly uncertain. The Company's ability to recover its investment is dependent upon the successful execution of the Company's feminine care and adult incontinence business plan. While there can be no assurances, management believes that its investment in the feminine care and adult incontinence business is recoverable. BRANDED PRODUCT INNOVATIONS. Because of the emphasis on product innovations in the disposable diaper, feminine care and adult incontinence markets, patents and other intellectual property rights are an important competitive factor. The national branded manufacturers have sought to vigorously enforce their patent rights. Patents held by the national branded manufacturers could severely limit the Company's ability to keep up with branded product innovations by prohibiting the Company from introducing products with comparable features. P&G and K-C have also heavily promoted diapers in the multi-pack configuration. These packages offer a lower unit price to the retailer and consumer. It is possible that the Company may continue to realize lower selling prices and/or lower volumes as a result of these initiatives. INCREASED FINANCIAL LEVERAGE. In connection with the Plan, the Company issued the New Notes. As a result of this increased leverage, the Company's principal and interest obligations have increased substantially. The degree to which the Company is leveraged could adversely affect the Company's ability to obtain additional financing for working capital, acquisitions or other purposes and could make it more vulnerable to economic downturns and competitive pressures. The Company's increased leverage could also adversely affect its liquidity and its ability to fund capital expenditures, as a substantial portion of available cash from operations will have to be applied to meet debt service requirements. The indenture related to the New Notes (the "Indenture") provides that, if certain coverage tests are not met, interest on the New Notes may be paid in kind for the first two years. The Indenture contains customary financial covenants restricting the payments of dividends, the repurchase of the Company's stock, the issuance of additional equity or the incurrence of additional indebtedness. Also in connection with the Plan, on January 28, 2000, the Company entered into the Credit Facility. The Credit Facility contains customary financial covenants. Based upon anticipated improvements in the Company's operations and certain cost savings measures, the Company believes that its cash flows from operations, borrowings under the Credit Facility and other sources of liquidity, will be adequate to meet the Company's anticipated requirements for working capital, capital expenditures, interest payments and scheduled principal payments for the foreseeable future. There can be no assurance, however, that anticipated improvements in operations and cost savings will be realized. If the Company is unable to generate sufficient cash flows from operations in the future, it may be required to refinance all or a portion of its existing debt or to obtain additional financing. There can be no assurance that any such refinancing would be possible or that any additional financing could be obtained on terms that are favorable or acceptable to the Company. MARKET FOR THE COMPANY'S COMMON STOCK. Pursuant to the Plan, Wellspring, and its affiliates purchased 11,516,405 shares, or approximately 97.4 percent, of the Company's new common stock. Approximately 309,800 shares, or 2.6 percent of the new common stock, was distributed under the Plan to the Company's then-existing stockholders and purchased through the Rights Offering pursuant to the Plan. The Company's common stock is currently quoted on OTCBB under the symbol PGTR.

Factors which could affect the Company's financial results, including but not limited to: increased raw material prices and product costs; new product and packaging introductions by competitors; increased price and promotion pressure from competitors; and patent litigation, are described herein. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on the forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date hereof, and which are made by management pursuant to the "safe harbor" provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. The 28 Company undertakes no obligation to publicly release the result of any revisions to these forward-looking statements that may be made to reflect events or circumstances after the date hereof or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events. NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS The Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") has issued Statement No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities," which must be adopted in the Company's fiscal year 2001. This statement establishes accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments - including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts - and for hedging activities. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the statement on the Company's financial statements. The Emerging Issues Task Force (the "Task Force") of the Financial Accounting Standards Board reached a consensus on Issue 00-14, ACCOUNTING FOR CERTAIN SALES INCENTIVES. The issue addresses the accounting for sales incentives offered voluntarily by a vendor without charge to customers that can be used in, or that are exercisable by a customer as a result of a single exchange transaction. For sales incentives resulting in the right to a rebate, the Task Force concluded that recognition should occur at the date of sale, measured based upon the estimated amount of refunds expected to be claimed by customers. Indicators pointing to the ability to make a reasonable and reliable estimate of the amount of future rebates or refunds were developed. If the amount cannot be reliably estimated, it should be assumed that all customers will request a refund. When recognized, a cash incentive should be classified as a reduction of revenue. Upon application of the consensus, which is required for the Company in the fourth quarter of 2000, prior period financial statements should be reclassified to conform to the consensus. To date, the Company has not completed its analysis of the impact which Issue 00-14 may have on the reported amount of sales. ITEM 3. QUANTITIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURE ABOUT MARKET RISK The Company's market risk-sensitive instruments and foreign currency exchange rate risks do not subject the Company to material market risk exposures. PART II. OTHER INFORMATION ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS THE PROCTER & GAMBLE COMPANY V. PARAGON TRADE BRANDS, INC. - P&G filed a lawsuit in January 1994 in the Delaware District Court alleging that the Company's "Ultra" infant disposable diaper products infringed two of P&G's dual cuff diaper patents. On December 30, 1997, the Delaware District Court issued a Judgment and Opinion finding that P&G's dual cuff patents were valid and infringed, while at the same time finding the Company's patent to be invalid, unenforceable and not infringed by P&G's products. Judgment was entered on January 6, 1998. Damages of approximately $178.4 million were entered against Paragon by the Delaware District Court on June 2, 1998. At the same time, the Delaware District Court entered injunctive relief agreed upon by P&G and the Company. The Delaware Judgment had a material adverse effect on the Company's financial position and its results of operations. As a result of the District Court's Judgment, the Company filed for relief under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code, 11 U.S.C. Section 101 ET seq., in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Northern District of Georgia (Case No. 98-60390) on January 6, 1998. See "--IN RE PARAGON TRADE BRANDS, INC.," below. On February 2, 1999, the Company entered into a Settlement Agreement with P&G which fully and finally settled all matters related to the Delaware Judgment, the Company's appeal of the Delaware Judgment, P&G's motion to find the Company in contempt of the Delaware Judgment and P&G's proof of claim filed in the Company's Chapter 11 reorganization proceeding. The P&G Approval Order was issued on August 6, 1999. As a part of the settlement, the Company entered into License Agreements for the U.S. and Canada, - with respect to certain of the patents asserted by P&G in its proof of claim, including those asserted in the Delaware action. The U.S. and Canadian patent rights licensed by the Company permitted the Company to convert to a dual cuff baby diaper design. While the Company believes that the royalty rates being charged by P&G are the same royalties that will be paid by the Company's major store brand competitors for similar patent rights, these royalties, together with royalties to be paid to K-C described herein, have had, and will continue to have, a material adverse impact on the Company's future financial 29 condition and results of operations. While these royalty costs have been partially offset by projected raw material cost savings related to the conversion to a dual cuff design, the Company's overall raw material costs have increased. These royalty costs have been partially offset by price increases announced by the Company in the fourth quarter of 1998 and will continue to be offset to the extent such price increases are maintained. KIMBERLY-CLARK CORPORATION V. PARAGON TRADE BRANDS, INC. - On October 26, 1995, K-C filed a lawsuit against the Company in the U.S. District Court in Dallas, Texas, alleging infringement by the Company's products of two K-C patents relating to dual cuffs. As a result of the Company's Chapter 11 filing, the proceedings in the K-C litigation were stayed. On March 19, 1999, the Company entered into a Settlement Agreement with K-C which fully and finally settled all matters related to the Texas action, including the Company's counterclaims, and K-C's proof of claim filed in the Company's Chapter 11 reorganization proceeding. The K-C Approval Order was issued by the Bankruptcy Court on August 6, 1999. As a part of the settlement, the Company entered into License Agreements for the U.S. and Canada, - with respect to the patents asserted by K-C in the Texas action. The patent rights licensed by the Company from K-C permitted the Company to convert to a dual cuff diaper design. The Company believes that the overall effective royalty rate that the Company will pay to K-C, together with royalties to be paid to P&G described above, has had, and will continue to have, a material adverse impact on the Company's future financial condition and results of operations. While these royalty costs have been partially offset by projected raw material cost savings related to the conversion to a dual cuff design, the Company's overall raw material costs have increased. These royalty costs have been partially offset by price increases announced by the Company in the fourth quarter of 1998 and will continue to be offset to the extent such price increases are maintained. As a part of the K-C License Agreement, K-C has agreed not to sue the Company on two of K-C's patents related to the use of Super Absorbent Polymer ("SAP") in diapers and training pants, so long as the Company uses SAP which exhibits certain performance characteristics (the "SAP Safe Harbor"). The Company has encountered increased product costs due to the increased price and usage of the new SAP within the SAP Safe Harbor. The Company cannot predict at this time whether or when the added costs will be fully offset. IN RE PARAGON TRADE BRANDS, INC. - As described above, on December 30, 1997, the Delaware District Court issued a Judgment and Opinion in the Company's lawsuit with P&G finding that two of P&G's diaper patents were valid and infringed by the Company's "Ultra" disposable baby diapers, while also rejecting the Company's patent infringement claim against P&G. Judgment was entered on January 6, 1998. While a final damages number was not entered by the Delaware District Court until June 2, 1998, the Company originally estimated the liability and associated litigation costs to be approximately $200 million. The amount of the award resulted in violation of certain covenants under the Company's bank loan agreements. As a result, the issuance of the Delaware Judgment and the uncertainty it created caused an immediate and critical liquidity issue for the Company which necessitated the Chapter 11 filing. Subsequently, damages of approximately $178.4 million were entered against Paragon by the Delaware District Court on June 2, 1998. At the same time, the Delaware District Court entered injunctive relief agreed upon by P&G and the Company. See "--THE PROCTER & GAMBLE COMPANY V. PARAGON TRADE BRANDS, INC.," above. The Chapter 11 filing prevented P&G from placing liens on the Company's assets, permitted the Company to appeal the Delaware District Court's decision in an orderly fashion and afforded the Company the opportunity to resolve liquidated and unliquidated claims against the Company which arose prior to the Chapter 11 filing. On February 2, 1999, the Company entered into a Settlement Agreement with P&G which fully and finally settled all matters related to the Delaware Judgment, the Company's appeal of the Delaware Judgment, P&G's motion to find the Company in contempt of the Delaware Judgment and P&G's proof of claim filed in the Company's Chapter 11 reorganization proceeding. See "--THE PROCTER & GAMBLE COMPANY V. PARAGON TRADE BRANDS, INC.," above. On March 19, 1999, the Company entered into a Settlement Agreement with K-C which fully and finally settled all matters related to the Texas action, including the Company's counterclaims, and K-C's proof of claim filed in the Company's Chapter 11 reorganization proceeding. See "--KIMBERLY-CLARK CORPORATION V. PARAGON TRADE BRANDS, INC.," above. On or about November 15, 1999, the Company and the Creditors' Committee, as co-proponents, filed the Plan and Disclosure Statement with the Bankruptcy Court. The Plan incorporated the Wellspring Transaction. By order dated November 18, 1999, the Bankruptcy Court approved the Disclosure Statement. At such time, the Bankruptcy Court also approved certain voting procedures and established January 7, 2000, as the voting deadline for the Plan and January 13, 30 2000, as the date for a hearing to consider confirmation of the Plan. A confirmation hearing was held by the Bankruptcy Court on January 13, 2000. By Order dated January 13, 2000, the Bankruptcy Court confirmed the Plan. On January 28, 2000, Paragon was reorganized pursuant to the Plan through the consummation of the Wellspring Transaction. As contemplated under the Plan, the Equity Committee has withdrawn with prejudice its appeals of the P&G Approval Order and the K-C Approval Order. On January 28, 2000, the Company entered into the Credit Facility with a bank group led by Citicorp. This facility is designed to supplement the Company's cash on hand and operating cash flow. As of June 25, 2000, there was an aggregate of $5.1 million in letters of credit under the Credit Facility and no direct borrowings. The Credit Facility contains customary financial covenants. Legal fees and costs in connection with the Chapter 11 reorganization proceeding were significant. KIMBERLY-CLARK WORLDWIDE, INC. V. PARAGON TRADE BRANDS, INC. - On March 20, 2000, Kimberly-Clark Worldwide, Inc. ("K-C Worldwide") filed suit in the U.S. District Court in Delaware against the Company for allegedly infringing a patent related to a disposable absorbent garment with a registered graphic. The suit seeks injunctive relief, unspecified treble damages, interest and attorneys' fees and expenses. On July 31, 2000, the Company and K-C Worldwide executed a settlement agreement. The Company believes that the terms and conditions of the settlement agreement will not have a material business or financial impact on the Company. OTHER - The Company is also a party to other legal proceedings generally incidental to its activities. Although the final outcome of any legal proceeding or dispute is subject to a great many variables and cannot be predicted with any degree of certainty, the Company presently believes that any ultimate liability resulting from any or all legal proceedings or disputes to which it is a party will not have a material adverse effect on its financial condition or results of operations. ITEM 3. DEFAULTS IN SENIOR SECURITIES At December 28, 1997, the Company maintained a $150 million revolving credit facility with a group of nine financial institutions available through February 2001. At December 28, 1997, borrowings under this credit facility totaled $70 million. The Company also had access to short-term lines of credit on an uncommitted basis with several major banks. At December 28, 1997, the Company had approximately $50 million in uncommitted lines of credit. Borrowings under these lines of credit totaled $12.8 million at December 28, 1997. The Chapter 11 filing resulted in a default under its pre-petition revolving credit facility and borrowings under its uncommitted lines of credit. ITEM 6.
