Trade accounts receivable and amounts due to factor:

          Pursuant to the terms of an agreement between Nitches and a factor, Nitches sells a majority of its trade accounts receivable to the factor on a pre-approved, non-recourse basis.  The price at which the accounts are sold is the invoice amount reduced by the factor commission (.3% of the invoice amount) and all selling discounts.  For accounts sold to the factor without recourse, the factor is responsible for collection, assumes all credit risk, and obtains all of the rights and remedies against the company’s customers.  For such accounts, payment is due from the factor upon the earlier of the payment of the receivable to the factor by the customer, or the maturity of the receivable (generally 180 days from the date of shipment to the customer).  As of November 30, 2005, non-recourse receivables totaled $14.5 million.

          Trade accounts receivable not sold to the factor remain in the custody and control of the Company and the Company maintains all credit risk on those accounts as well as accounts which are sold to the factor with recourse.  The combined credit risk for non-factored and recourse receivables as of November 30, 2005, totaled $731,000, of which $241,000 had been collected by December 31, 2005.

          The Company may request payment from the factor in advance of the collection date or maturity.  Any such advance payments are assessed an interest charge through the collection date or maturity at the factor’s prime rate less 1.5% (one and one half percent) per annum.  The company’s obligations with respect to advances from the factor are limited to the interest charges thereon.  Advance payments are limited to a maximum of 85% (eighty-five percent) of eligible accounts receivable.  The factoring agreement also provides for the issuance of irrevocable letters of credit for the Company’s purchase of inventory in the normal course of its business.  Letters of credit are subject to a $6 million limit.  All assets of the company collateralize the advances and letters of credit.  The Company’s Chairman has also provided a personal guaranty in connection with the factoring arrangement.

          The status of the Company’s trade accounts receivable and letters of credit are as follows:

Restatement

          After filing its quarterly report on form 10-Q as of November 30, 2005, the Company reviewed its presentation of factored trade receivables and factor advances on the balance sheet and determined that, in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, factor advances should be presented as a separate liability on the balance sheet and not on a net basis with factored accounts receivable.  This amended report includes the restatement of the balance sheets and statements of cash flows to reflect this presentation.  The changes are summarized in the tables below.

ITEM 2.   Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

          Valuation of Goodwill, Long-Lived Assets and Intangible Assets.  The Company evaluates goodwill, long-lived assets and intangible assets for potential impairment on an annual basis during the fourth fiscal quarter, subsequent to the completion of financial projections for the following fiscal year.  The Company may make an evaluation between annual tests in certain circumstances such as a significant change in business climate, unanticipated competition, loss of key personnel, or adverse action or assessment by a regulator such as import quotas or duties. Any of these circumstances could cause the Company to conclude that impairment exists and that the net book value of goodwill, long-lived assets and/or intangible assets is impaired.  Any resulting impairment loss could have a material adverse impact on the Company’s financial condition and results of operations.

ITEM 4.   Controls and Procedures

          As of the end of the period covered by this report, the Chief Executive and Financial Officer evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e).  Based upon that evaluation, he concluded that the disclosure controls and procedures of the Company are effective in timely alerting of the material information required to be included in the periodic filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission and that the information required to be disclosed in these filings is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the Commission.
