NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
UNAUDITED

1. FINANCIAL STATEMENT POLICIES

Basis of Presentation. The condensed consolidated financial statements include
the accounts of Fossil, Inc., a Delaware corporation, and its wholly and
majority-owned subsidiaries (the "Company"). The condensed consolidated
financial statements reflect all adjustments that are, in the opinion of
management, necessary to present a fair statement of the Company's financial
position as of April 6, 2002, and the results of operations for the
thirteen-week period ended April 6, 2002, and fourteen-week period ended April
7, 2001. All adjustments are of a normal, recurring nature. Reclassification of
certain amounts for the fourteen-week period ended April 7, 2001, have been made
to conform to the presentation for the thirteen-week period ended April 6, 2002.

These interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the
audited financial statements and the notes thereto included in Form 10-K filed
by the Company pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 for the year
ended January 5, 2002. Operating results for the thirteen-week period ended
April 6, 2002, are not necessarily indicative of the results to be achieved for
the full year.

The condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance
with generally accepted accounting principles which require the Company to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and revenues
and expenses during the periods reported. Actual results could differ from those
estimates. The Company has not made any changes in its critical accounting
policies from those disclosed in its most recent annual report.

Business. The Company designs, develops, markets and distributes fashion watches
and other accessories, principally under the "FOSSIL" and "RELIC" brands names.
The Company's products are sold primarily through department stores and other
major retailers, both domestically and in over 90 countries worldwide.

3. FOREIGN CURRENCY HEDGING INSTRUMENTS

The Company periodically enters into forward contracts principally to hedge the
future payment of intercompany inventory transactions with its non-U.S.
subsidiaries. At April 6, 2002, the Company had hedge contracts to sell 31.3
million Euro for approximately $27.4 million, expiring through December 2002. If
the Company were to settle its Euro based contracts at the reporting date the
net result would be a net gain of approximately $95,000, net of taxes, for the
thirteen-week period ended April 6, 2002. This

4
unrealized gain is recognized in other comprehensive  income under SFAS No. 133,
"Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities."

In implementing SFAS No. 133, as of December 31, 2000, the Company recognized a
net unrealized loss of approximately $400,000 in other comprehensive income. The
net increase in fair value for the thirteen-week period ended April 6, 2002, and
the fourteen-week period ended April 7, 2001, of approximately $74,000 and
$681,000, respectively, are included in other comprehensive income (loss).

5. EQUITY AND EARNINGS PER SHARE

Under the Company's stock-based compensation plan, a limited number of shares of
restricted common stock may be granted at no cost to certain key officers and
employees. These shares carry voting and dividend rights; however, sale or
transfer of the shares is restricted. These restricted stock awards vest over a
specific period of time. During March 2002, the Chairman of the Board of
Directors donated 77,500 shares of common stock to the Company. These shares
were subsequently reissued as restricted stock, which generally vest over a
period of five to nine years and have a zero exercise price. Approximately $2.1
million was recorded as deferred compensation and an increase to additional
paid-in capital based upon the fair value of the shares at the date of grant.
The deferred compensation expense will be amortized into earnings over the
vesting period.

6. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In July 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued SFAS No.
141, "Business Combinations," and SFAS No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible
Assets." These standards were adopted by the Company on July 1, 2001. Under SFAS
No. 142, all goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives will not be
amortized but will be tested for impairment annually and also in the event of an
impairment indication. As required by SFAS No. 142, the results for periods
prior to its adoption have not been restated. The pro forma effect, if SFAS No.
142 had been adopted effective December 31, 2000, would not have changed
previously reported basic or diluted earnings per share for the fourteen-week
period ended April 7, 2001.

The FASB also issued SFAS No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or the
Disposal of Long-Lived Assets," which was effective January 6, 2002 for the
Company. SFAS No. 144 supersedes SFAS No.121 "Accounting for the Impairment of
Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed of." The Company has
evaluated the impact of the provisions of SFAS No. 144, and the results of such
evaluation did not result in any material adjustments to the carrying value of
its long-lived assets as of the balance sheet date.

7. SUBSEQUENT EVENT

On May 14, 2002, the Board of Directors of the Company declared a 3-for-2 stock
split ("Stock Split") of the Company's $0.01 par value common stock ("Common
Stock"), which will be in the form of a 50% stock dividend payable on June 7,
2002 to stockholders of record on May 24, 2002. Retroactive effect will be given
to the Stock Split in stockholders' equity accounts and in all share and per
share data in subsequent consolidated financial statements and notes thereto.

FOSSIL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES


ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS

The following is a discussion of the financial condition and results of
operations of Fossil, Inc. and its wholly and majority-owned subsidiaries (the
"Company") for the thirteen-week period ended April 6, 2002 (the "First
Quarter"), as compared to the fourteen-week period ended April 7, 2001 (the
"Prior Year Quarter"). This discussion should be read in conjunction with the
Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and the related Notes attached
hereto.

General

Fossil is a design, development, marketing and distribution company that
specializes in consumer products predicated on fashion and value. The FOSSIL
brand name was developed by the Company to convey a distinctive fashion, quality
and value message and a brand image reminiscent of "America in the 1950s" that
suggests a time of fun, fashion and humor. Since its inception in 1984, the
Company has grown from its original flagship FOSSIL watch product into a company
offering a diversified range of accessories and apparel. The Company's principle
offerings include an extensive line of watches sold under the FOSSIL and RELIC
brands as well as complementary lines of small leather goods, belts, handbags,
sunglasses, jewelry and FOSSIL brand apparel. In addition to developing its own
brands, the Company leverages its development and production expertise by
designing and manufacturing private label and licensed products for some of the
most prestigious companies in the world, including national retailers,
entertainment companies and fashion designers. During 2001, the Company acquired
certain businesses located in Switzerland that provide the necessary
infrastructure to design, source and produce fine quality Swiss-made timepieces.
The Company anticipates launching its initial Swiss watch offering in late 2002.

The Company's products are sold primarily to department stores and specialty
retail stores in over 90 countries worldwide through Company-owned foreign sales
subsidiaries and through a network of independent distributors. The Company's
foreign operations, including distributors, include a presence in Asia,
Australia, Canada, the Caribbean, Europe, Central and South America and the
Middle East. In addition, the Company's products are offered at Company-owned
retail stores primarily located throughout the United States and in
independently-owned, authorized FOSSIL retail stores and kiosks located in
several major airports, on cruise ships and in certain international markets.
The Company's successful expansion of its product lines worldwide and leveraging
of its infrastructure have contributed to its increasing net sales and operating
profits during the last five fiscal years.

First Quarter Highlights

o The Company achieved record First Quarter net sales of $144
million with increases in virtually all business and product
categories.
o Domestic watch sales increased 8.5% to $42 million primarily as a
result of a 25% increase in FOSSIL watches.
o The Company further expanded its RELIC accessories business with
continued roll-out of leather and sunglass products.
o Sales generated from the Company's European-based operations grew
41% including $7 million in sales from recent acquisitions.
o The Company operated 91 retail locations (44 outlet and 47
accessory) at the end of the First Quarter, compared to 77 stores
(39 outlet and 38 accessory) at the end of the Prior Year
Quarter. This retail store expansion and 3% same store sales
growth generated sales increases of 27% for the First Quarter.
o The Company revised its sales and earnings guidance for fiscal
2002, estimating sales increases slightly above 15% and earnings
per share in a range from $1.75 - $1.80, on a diluted basis.

</TABLE>


Sales from the Company's domestic watch business increased 8.5% during the First
Quarter primarily due to a 25% increase in sales of FOSSIL watches and increases
in licensed watch sales. The FOSSIL watch increase resulted from increased
orders from retailers to replenish lower year-end inventory levels and continued
strong sell-throughs relating to new styles launched during the second half of
2001. These increases were partially offset by sales decreases in the Company's
private label and premiums business.

8
Sales from the Company's domestic leather and sunglass businesses  increased 25%
over the Prior Year Quarter. Continued product roll-outs of RELIC leather and
sunglasses and sales increases across most FOSSIL leather categories fueled this
growth. Sales from the Company's international operations grew 22% during the
First Quarter led by a 41% increase in European sales or a 16% increase
excluding recent acquisitions. The 16% sales increase in Europe was primarily
related to continued growth in licensed watch sales and further expansion of
FOSSIL jewelry. Sales from the Company's retail stores increased 27% as a result
of an increase in the average number of stores opened during the period and
blended same store sales increases of 3%.

Gross Profit. Gross profit margin increased to 49.8% in the First Quarter
compared to 49.3% in the Prior Year Quarter. Gross profit margin was favorably
impacted by a higher sales mix of FOSSIL watch, international and retail store
sales all of which generate margins in excess of the Company's historical
average gross profit margin. These increases in gross profit margin were offset
by the effects of a higher mix of RELIC leather sales, which generally produce
margins below the Company's consolidated gross profit margin, and a 5% decrease
in the average Euro rate which had the effect of reducing gross profit margin by
approximately 40 basis points.

Operating Expenses. Operating expenses, as a percentage of net sales, increased
in the First Quarter to 36.4% compared to 35.8% in the Prior Year Quarter. The
$8.8 million increase was primarily related to increases in variable expenses to
support net sales increases, expenses relating to expansion of the Company's
administrative facilities and expenses relating to the Company's new
distribution facility. Operating expenses relating to businesses acquired after
the Prior Year Quarter were $2.7 million.

Operating Income. The increase in gross profit margin and the increase in
operating expenses as a percentage of net sales resulted in an operating profit
margin of 13.4% for the First Quarter, compared to a 13.5% operating profit
margin in the Prior Year Quarter.

Other Income - net. Other income - net decreased by approximately $150,000
during the First Quarter. This decrease was primarily due to reduced interest
income resulting from lower average cash balances invested during the period and
lower yields due to substantial decreases in interest rates since the Prior Year
Quarter.

Provision For Income Taxes. The Company's effective income tax rate decreased to
39% during the First Quarter compared to 40% in the Prior Year Quarter to
reflect the lower worldwide effective tax rate being achieved by the Company.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company's general business operations historically have not required
substantial cash needs during the first several months of its fiscal year.
Generally, starting in the second quarter the Company's cash needs begin to
increase, typically reaching their peak in the September-November time frame.
The Company's cash holdings and short-term marketable securities of $72 million
at the end of the First Quarter remained virtually unchanged from year-end 2001.
Net cash generated from operating activities of approximately $19 million during
the First Quarter was used to finance approximately $6 million of capital
additions and to pay off approximately $16 million outstanding under the
Company's short-term credit facility.

Accounts receivable increased 22% over the Prior Year Quarter. Days sales
outstanding decreased to 46 days in the First Quarter compared to 47 days in the
Prior Year Quarter. Inventory increased 7% over the Prior Year Quarter to $95
million. This increase was substantially below the First Quarter net sales
increase of 18.6% and below the $104 million of inventory at the end of fiscal
2001.

At the end of the First Quarter, the Company had working capital of $178 million
compared to working capital of $174 million and $163 million at the end of the
Prior Year Quarter and fiscal 2001 year-end, respectively. The Company had no
outstanding borrowings against its $40 million bank credit facility at the end
of the First Quarter. Management believes that cash flow from operations
combined with existing

9
cash on hand and amounts  available under its credit facility will be sufficient
to satisfy working capital requirements for at least the next eighteen months.

Forward-Looking Statements

Included within management's discussion of the Company's operating results,
"forward-looking statements" were made within the meaning of the Private
Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 regarding expectations for 2002. The
actual results may differ materially from those expressed by these
forward-looking statements. Significant factors that could cause the Company's
2002 operating results to differ materially from management's current
expectations include, among other items, significant changes in consumer
spending patterns or preferences, competition in the Company's product areas,
international in comparison to domestic sales mix, changes in foreign currency
valuations in relation to the United States dollar, principally the European
Union's, an inability of management to control operating expenses in relation to
net sales without damaging the long-term direction of the Company and the risks
and uncertainties set forth in the Company's current report on Form 8-K dated
March 30, 1999.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

As a multinational enterprise, the Company is exposed to changes in foreign
currency exchange rates. The Company employs a variety of practices to manage
this market risk, including its operating and financing activities and, where
deemed appropriate, the use of derivative financial instruments. Forward
contracts have been utilized by the Company to mitigate foreign currency risk.
The Company's most significant foreign currency risks relate to the Euro. The
Company uses derivative financial instruments only for risk management purposes
and does not use them for speculation or for trading. There were no significant
changes in how the Company managed foreign currency transactional exposures
during the First Quarter and management does not anticipate any significant
changes in such exposures or in the strategies it employs to manage such
exposures in the near future.
