<P><FONT SIZE=2><B>MESSAGE TO SHAREHOLDERS  </B></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;On behalf of the Board of Directors, I am pleased to provide results for the three months ended December&nbsp;29, 2002. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;For
the quarter ended December&nbsp;29, 2002, the Company reported net earnings of $5.8&nbsp;million, or $0.20 per diluted share, up respectively 107% and 100% from
$2.8&nbsp;million, or $0.10 per diluted share, in the first quarter of fiscal 2002. EPS for the first quarter of fiscal 2003 exceeded the consensus of analyst estimates for the quarter by
approximately $0.04 per diluted share. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
higher net earnings compared to last year were due to a 24.2% increase in unit sales, a 240 basis point increase in gross margins and lower interest expense, reflecting the impact on
net indebtedness of the significant free cash flow generated by the Company since the first quarter of fiscal 2002. The positive impact of these factors was partially offset by lower selling prices,
together with increased selling, general and administrative expenses and higher depreciation as a result of the Company's recent major capital investment projects. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Sales
for the first quarter were $102.3&nbsp;million, up 15.9% from $88.3&nbsp;million in the first quarter of last year. The higher sales were primarily due to the increased unit
shipments, partially offset by lower unit selling prices. The higher unit sales reflected 8.1% growth in overall industry shipments of T-shirts in the U.S.&nbsp;wholesale distributor
market combined with significant market share increases achieved by Gildan in all
product categories, compared with the first quarter of last year. In particular, the Company continued to reinforce its market leadership position in the overall T-shirt category, where
its share reached 31.4%, compared with 24.9% a year ago, and 28.0% in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2002. At the same time, inventories of Gildan T-shirts in the U.S distributor channel
were reduced by 12.6% compared with the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2002. Gildan's share in sports shirts increased to 14.7%, versus 9.3% in the first quarter of last year, and the Company's
share in fleece was 10.3%, up from 8.1% a year ago. All U.S.&nbsp;market and market share data is based on the S.T.A.R.S. Report produced by ACNielsen Market Decisions. Also, Gildan's unit sales in
Europe increased by 54.5% compared with the first quarter of last year. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Gross
margins were 29.4% in the first quarter, compared with 27.0% in the first quarter of fiscal 2002, due to lower raw material costs and continuing manufacturing efficiency
improvements, including the impact of the Company's ongoing capital investment projects, partially offset by lower selling prices. Also, product-mix was more favourable than the first
quarter of last year, mainly due to a higher proportion of coloured T-shirts compared to white. </FONT></P>


<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Selling,
general and administrative expenses for the first quarter were $15.9&nbsp;million, or 15.5% of sales, compared with $13.1&nbsp;million, or 14.8% of sales, in the first
quarter of last year. For the full 2003 fiscal year, it is expected that selling, general and administrative expenses will be at a similar level to last year, as a percentage of sales. Selling,
general and administrative expenses were 10.6% of sales in fiscal 2002. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Based
on its results for the first quarter, and the current outlook for the balance of the fiscal year, Gildan now anticipates that diluted EPS for the full 2003 fiscal year will be in
the range of $2.70-$2.80 per share. The Company had previously forecast diluted EPS of $2.60-$2.70 per share. </FONT></P>


<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
first quarter is traditionally the lowest quarter in the Company's annual breakdown of sales and earnings. During the first quarter, the Company re-built inventories for
the peak summer T-shirt selling season and continued to ramp up capacity at its new fully-integrated textile manufacturing facility located at Rio Nance, Honduras. The Company expects to
have sufficient production capacity and inventory available to be able to satisfy demand for its products in fiscal 2003 and to support its projected further sales growth in fiscal 2004. The Company
indicated that it continued to be extremely pleased with the progress of the Rio Nance ramp up and with the manufacturing cost reductions being achieved at this facility. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;During
the first quarter, the Company used $8.8&nbsp;million of its surplus cash reserves, together with the cash flow from its operating earnings and accounts receivable collections,
to finance the cash requirements for inventory re-building and the major capital expenditure projects being completed by the Company. The Company remains committed to sustaining the
improvements in working capital utilization achieved in fiscal 2002. DSO in trade accounts receivable were maintained at 45&nbsp;days, essentially the same level as the fiscal 2002&nbsp;year end,
and down significantly from 76&nbsp;days at the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2002. At December&nbsp;29, 2002, the Company's balance sheet position continued to be strong. Cash and cash
equivalents amounted to $61.9&nbsp;million and the Company's revolving bank credit facilities were entirely unutilized and available. Net debt to total capitalization at December&nbsp;29, 2002
stood at 17%. For the full 2003 fiscal year, the Company expects to generate positive free cash flow of $25-$35&nbsp;million, as previously indicated. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We
are pleased to have exceeded both our own and the market's expectations for our first quarter results. More importantly, however, we are pleased with the way we are continuing to
position ourselves and create competitive advantage for the future. We are continuing to reinforce our market share and brand leadership in the North American activewear market. Our success in the
market-place is being supported by our capital investments in vertically-integrated manufacturing, which reflect our commitment to constantly reinforce our position as the low-cost
producer of circular knit apparel for both the North American and European markets, against any global competition. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;On
behalf of the Board of Directors, I wish to take this opportunity to thank our shareholders for their continued confidence and support. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>The
accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Canadian generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information.
Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by Canadian generally accepted accounting
principles for complete financial statements, and should be read in conjunction with the Company's annual consolidated financial statements. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>The
Company applied the same accounting policies in the preparation of the interim consolidated financial statements, as described in note&nbsp;1 of its audited financial statements in the Company's
annual report for the year ended September&nbsp;29, 2002. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>The
comparative balance sheet at September&nbsp;29, 2002 is from the audited financial statements at that date but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by Canadian
generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company's
annual report for the year ended September&nbsp;29, 2002. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>Certain
prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current fiscal year presentation. These changes had no impact on previously reported results of operations, financial position, cash
flow or shareholders' equity. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>The
Company's revenues and income are subject to seasonal variations. Consequently, the results of operations for the first quarter ended December&nbsp;29, 2002 are not traditionally indicative of
the results to be expected for the full year. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>All
amounts in the attached notes are unaudited unless specifically identified. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><B>2.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Significant accounting policies:  </B></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>Effective
September&nbsp;30, 2002, the Company adopted prospectively the new recommendations of the Canadian Institute of Chartered Accountants ("CICA"), Handbook Section&nbsp;3870, with respect
to the accounting for stock-based compensation and other stock-based payments. The new recommendations require that all stock-based payments to non-employees, and employee awards that are
direct awards of stock, call for settlement in cash or other assets, or are stock appreciation rights that call for settlement by the issuance of equity instruments, granted on or after adoption of
the standard be accounted for using the fair value method. The Company presently does not have any such awards which must be accounted for using the fair value method. For all other stock-based
employee compensation awards, the new standards permit the Company to continue to follow its existing policy of using the settlement date method of accounting. Under this method, no compensation
expense is recognized when stock options are issued to employees. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>The
Company has employee share purchase plans and a stock option plan. No compensation expense is recognized under the stock-based compensation plans. The stock options are granted at an exercise
price
equal to the market value of the common shares at the date of grant. Any consideration paid by employees on exercise of the stock options or purchase of stock is credited to share capital. </FONT></P>


<P><FONT SIZE=2>If
the fair value-based accounting method under Handbook Section&nbsp;3870 had been used for three month period ended December&nbsp;29, 2002 there would be no material difference in the reported
amount of net </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>The
weighted average fair value of the 101,206 options granted in the three month period ended December&nbsp;29, 2002, is $10.55 per stock option which would be recognized over the vesting period.
The weighted average fair value of the stock options granted during the three month period is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following weighted
average assumptions: expected dividend yield of 0%; expected volatility of 37%; risk-free interest rate of 3.75%; and expected lives of 3&nbsp;years. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><B>MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL POSITION AND OPERATING RESULTS  </B></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements for the three months ended December&nbsp;29,
2002, with the Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Position and Results of Operations ("MD&amp;A") in the fiscal 2002 annual report, including the section on risks and uncertainties and,
with the notes to the consolidated financial statements for the first quarter of fiscal year 2003. The Company's accounting policies are in accordance with Canadian generally accepted accounting
principles ("GAAP"). These differ in some respects from GAAP in the United States ("US GAAP"). The Company's financial results are reconciled to US GAAP at the end of its fiscal year in its annual
report. All dollar amounts herein are in Canadian dollars unless otherwise indicated. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><B>Results of Operations  </B></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><B>Sales  </B></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Sales for the three months ended December&nbsp;29, 2002 were $102.3&nbsp;million, up 15.9% from $88.3&nbsp;million for the three months ended
December&nbsp;30, 2001. The increase in sales was due to a 24.2% increase in unit volume, partially offset by lower average selling prices. </FONT></P>


<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;U.S.<SUP>1</SUP>
industry shipments of T-shirts from distributors to screen-printers increased by 8.1%, sport shirt shipments declined by 8.4%, while fleece shipments
declined by 1.2% in the quarter ended December compared with the corresponding period in the previous year. During the same period, sales of Gildan T-shirts by distributors in the
U.S.&nbsp;grew by 35.1% while sales of Gildan sport shirts and fleece products grew by 42.2% and 26.8% respectively. Gildan continues to achieve strong market share penetration in all categories. </FONT></P>

S.T.A.R.S. Report, AC Nielsen Market Decisions </FONT></DD></DL>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
Company has continued to expand its European business where it achieved a 54.5% increase in unit volume over the prior year and continues to maintain its leading market share
position in Canada. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><B>Gross Margin  </B></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Gross margin increased from 27.0% in the first quarter of fiscal 2002 to 29.4% for the first quarter of fiscal 2003. The increase in gross margin was due to lower
cotton costs as compared to the same period last year combined with the impact of lower manufacturing costs. These cost reductions were partially offset by lower average selling prices, as the Company
continued to pursue its strategy of largely passing through the benefit of lower costs into lower selling prices to customers. The Company continues to benefit from its investment in further vertical
integration into yarn spinning as well as reductions in textile costs from our new facility in Rio Nance, Honduras. The Company expects further savings as capacity is increased from this facility, and
also from overall lower duty and transportation costs. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><B>Selling, General and Administrative Expenses  </B></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Selling, general and administrative expenses were $15.9&nbsp;million or 15.5% of sales for the first quarter of fiscal 2003 compared to $13.1&nbsp;million or
14.8% of sales in the first quarter of fiscal 2002. As a percentage of sales, selling, general and administrative expenses are higher in the first quarter of the fiscal year due to the seasonality of
the business. The Company expects that for fiscal 2003, selling, general and administrative expenses will be at a similar level as a percentage of sales as fiscal 2002. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><B>Depreciation and Interest Expenses  </B></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Depreciation expense increased from $4.0&nbsp;million in the first quarter of fiscal 2002 to $5.5&nbsp;million in the first quarter of fiscal 2003. The
increase in depreciation expense is the result of the Company's continued investment in capital expenditures to provide for long-term sales growth. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Interest
expense has decreased to $2.3&nbsp;million in the first quarter of fiscal 2003 from $3.6&nbsp;million in the first quarter of fiscal 2002. The decrease is the result of
overall lower borrowing levels in first quarter of fiscal 2003 compared to the prior year. </FONT></P>


<P><FONT SIZE=2><B>Earnings  </B></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Net earnings were $5.8&nbsp;million or $0.20 per share on a diluted basis in the first quarter of fiscal 2003 compared to $2.8&nbsp;million or $0.10 per share
on a diluted basis in the first quarter of fiscal 2002. The increase in net earnings was the result of a 15.9% increase in sales combined with higher gross margins and lower interest costs partially
offset by an increase in selling, general, administration and depreciation expenses. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><B>Balance Sheet  </B></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Accounts receivable decreased to $54.8&nbsp;million in the first quarter of fiscal 2003 from $87.7&nbsp;million at September&nbsp;29, 2002 and
$79.6&nbsp;million in the first quarter of the prior year. The reduction in receivables compared with September&nbsp;29, 2002 was due to lower seasonal sales. The reduction in accounts receivable
from the first quarter of fiscal 2002 is due to a reduction in days' sales outstanding on trade accounts receivable from 76&nbsp;days to 45&nbsp;days in the current quarter. Inventories increased
by $36.7&nbsp;million from $113.0&nbsp;million at September&nbsp;29, 2002 to $149.7&nbsp;million in the first quarter of fiscal 2003. The Company traditionally builds up inventory levels in
the first quarter to meet peak sales demand in the summer. Inventory levels have been reduced by $54.1&nbsp;million from the prior year due to significantly improved inventory turnover. The Company
expects to have sufficient manufacturing capacity to service the anticipated increase in sales demand in the current year. </FONT></P>


<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In
the first quarter of fiscal 2003, the Company invested $18.0&nbsp;million in fixed assets mainly for the purchase of new equipment for its yarn spinning facility and for its new
Honduran textile facility. In the first quarter of fiscal 2002, the Company invested $13.9&nbsp;million in fixed assets. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Total
assets were $500.8&nbsp;million at December&nbsp;29, 2002 compared to $496.6&nbsp;million at September&nbsp;29, 2002 and $471.2&nbsp;million at December&nbsp;30, 2001.
Working capital was $184.8&nbsp;million at the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2003 compared to $206.1&nbsp;million at December&nbsp;30, 2001 and $188.8&nbsp;million at September&nbsp;29,
2002. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;For the quarter ended December&nbsp;29, 2002, cash flow generated from operating activities, including changes in non-cash working capital, amounted
to $9.1&nbsp;million compared with $6.4&nbsp;million during the same period last year. The improvement was the result of the $3.0&nbsp;million increase in net earnings. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Cash
used for total operating and investing activities amounted to $8.8&nbsp;million in the first quarter of fiscal 2003 compared to $8.0&nbsp;million last year. Cash flow increases
in operating activities as compared to the prior year quarter were offset by the $4.1&nbsp;million increase investment in capital expenditures. For the full fiscal year, the Company expects to
generate cash flow after its operating and investing activities. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;At
December&nbsp;29, 2002, none of the Company's $150.0&nbsp;million revolving bank facility was utilized. Total indebtedness at December&nbsp;29, 2002, amounted to
$118.1&nbsp;million compared to $121.1&nbsp;million at September&nbsp;29, 2002 and $167.5&nbsp;million at December&nbsp;30, 2001. Management expects that cash flow from its operating
earnings, together with its unutilized bank facilities, will provide significant latitude to meet its foreseeable needs for seasonal working capital and capital expenditures for the balance of fiscal
2003. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><B>Outlook  </B></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;As a result of the higher than anticipated first quarter results, and the continuing favourable outlook for the balance of the year, the Company now anticipates
diluted earnings per share will be in the range of $2.70 to $2.80 up from $2.60 to $2.70 per diluted share as previously forecasted. </FONT></P>


<P><FONT SIZE=2><B>Business Risks  </B></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In order to be successful, the Company must continuously be aware of global changes and risks affecting its markets and competitive environment. Risk areas
include changes in international trade legislation and taxation, changes in cotton prices and currency fluctuations. For a more detailed discussion on potential business risks, readers should review
the risks factors section of the Annual Information Form filed by the Company with the Canadian securities commissions and the Annual Report on Form&nbsp;40-F filed with the
U.S.&nbsp;Securities and Exchange Commission which are hereby incorporated by reference. </FONT></P>
