RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Nine Months Ended September 30, 1996 Vs. Nine Months Ended September 30, 1995
Revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 1996 were $29,591,000, or 14%
higher than the $25,893,000 recorded in the comparable period of 1995. This
increase in revenues, which are derived from product sales, is due to several
factors. Management feels that "Steve Madden" as a brand name is increasing in
popularity, thus reorders and retail sales have increased, and new accounts
continue to be added. Cost of revenues increased 1% from 66% of revenues in
1995 to 67% of revenues in 1996, primarily as a result of a higher level of
markdowns experienced in the second quarter of 1996. Adesso-Madden, a wholly
owned subsidiary of the Company, generated a commission of $722,000 for the
first nine months of 1996. The Company's newly acquired subsidiary, Diva, had
sales of $1,830,000 for the six month period from April 1,1996 (date of
acquisition) through September 30, 1996, gross profit was $437,000 and loss
from operations was $355,000.
Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by 96% to $9,305,000 in
1996 from $4,749,000 in 1995. The increase is due primarily to a 98% increase
in payroll, bonuses and related expenses from $1,760,000 in 1995 to $3,487,000
in 1996, and a 127% increase in selling, advertising, marketing, and designing
expenses from $1,422,000 in 1995 to $3,230,000 in 1996. In addition, occupancy,
telephone, and utilities expenses increased 219% from $215,000 in 1995 to
$685,000 in 1996. Income from operations for 1996 was $1,194,000 which
represents a decrease of $2,890,000 from the income from operations of
$4,084,000 in 1995. This decrease resulted from the higher cost of revenues as
a percent of sales and from the substantial increase in selling, general and
administrative expenses. The net income for 1996 was $859,000 as compared to
net income of $2,642,000 for the corresponding nine month period of 1995.
Wholesale Division revenues, accounted for 86% or $25,503,000 and 92% or
$23,784,000 of total revenues in 1996 and 1995 respectively. Wholesale Division
cost of revenues as a percent of sales increased from 66% in 1995 to 67% in
1996. Operating expenses increased by 68%, from $4,224,000 in 1995 to
$7,106,000 in 1996. This increase is due to an increase in payroll and payroll
related expenses due to the hiring of additional personnel and an increase in
occupancy expenses due to additional warehouse space needed for expanding
inventory and showroom space as part of an aggressive sales approach. Wholesale
income from operations was $1,196,000 in 1996 compared to $3,987,000 in 1995.
This decrease is a result of the higher cost of revenues and from the
substantial increase in operating expenses.
Revenues from the Retail Division, which accounted for 4% and 7% of total
revenues in 1995 and 1996 respectively, increased from $1,152,000 in 1995 to
$2,258,000 in 1996. This increase in revenues is due to the Company's opening
of a second retail store in New York City, in October 1995 which earned
revenues of $1,034,000 in first nine months of 1996. The gross margin from the
retail stores was $1,038,000 or 46% and $520,000 or 45% in 1996 and 1995
respectively. The increase in gross margin and gross margin percentage is due
to a lower per pair cost being passed through from the wholesale division.
Selling, general and administrative expenses increased to $831,000 or 37% of
sales in 1996 from $341,000 or 30% of sales in 1995. This increase is due to
increases in payroll and related expenses, occupancy, printing and depreciation
expenses as a result of opening a second store. Income from operations from the
Retail Division was $207,000 in 1996 compared to income from operations of
$179,000 in 1995. In December 1995 the Company sold its Marlboro Leather
division which generated $957,000 of revenues during the nine months of 1995.

Three Months Ended September 30, 1996 vs. Three Months Ended September 30, 1995
Revenues for the three months ended September 30, 1996 were $13,107,000 or 29%
higher than the $10,165,000 recorded in the comparable period of 1995. Cost of
revenues as percentage of revenues increased to 68% in 1996 as compared to 66%
in 1995. This increase in cost of revenues is due to mark-down prices for
allowances to customers. Adesso-Madden, a wholly owned subsidiary of the
Company, generated a commission of $264,000 in the third Quarter of 1996. Diva
had sales of $1,176,000 in the third Quarter of 1996, gross profit was $299,000
and loss from operations was $161,000. In December 1995 the Company sold
Marlboro Leather division whose third Quarter 1995 revenues were $465,000.
Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by 109% to $3,761,000 in
1996 from $1,798,000 in 1995. This increase is primarily due to an increase of
110% in payroll, bonuses and payroll related expenses to $1,420,000 in 1996
from $676,000 in 1995, an increase of 139% in selling, advertising, marketing
and designing expenses to $1,451,000 in 1996 from $607,000 in 1995, an increase
of 176% in occupancy, telephone and utility costs to $232,000 in 1996 from
$84,000 in 1995.
Income from operations was $732,000 in 1996 as compared to $1,662,000 for the
corresponding period of 1995. Net income for the 1996 period was $483,000 as
compared to net income of $1,011,000 for the same period of 1995. The decline
in net income is primarily a result of the increase in cost of revenues as a
percentage of revenues and of the increases in administrative expenses as noted
above.
Revenues from the wholesale division increased 17% to $11,117,000 in 1996 from
$9,484,000 in 1995 and accounted for 85% and 93% of total revenues in 1996 and
1995, respectively. Cost of revenues as a percentage of revenues increased to
68% in 1996 from 65% in 1995. Selling, general and administrative expenses
increased by 75% to $2,821,000 in 1996 from $1,610,000 in 1995. Income from
operations was $750,000 in 1996 as compared to income from operations of
$1,684,000 in 1995. The lower net income for 1996 resulted from the increase in
cost of revenues as a percentage of revenues and the increase in selling,
general and administrative expenses as discussed above.
Revenues from the Company's retail stores increased to $815,000 in 1996 from
$415,000 in 1995 and accounted for 6% and 4% of total revenues in 1996 and
1995, respectively. The Company opened a second retail store in New York City
in October 1995 which earned revenues of $359,000 for the three months ended
September 30, 1996. The gross margin from the retail stores was $360,000, or
44%, and $195,000 or 47%, in 1996 and 1995, respectively. In 1996 the retail
stores sold Steve Madden merchandise, which proved to be very popular, as well
as other brands. Approximately 5% of the revenues earned by the retail stores
are from sales of other brands. Selling, general and administrative expenses
increased to $278,000 in 1996 from $123,000 in 1995. This increase in expenses
is due to increases in payroll, payroll related expenses, occupancy, utilities,
printing expenses and depreciation expenses from opening a second store.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Company has working capital of $14,568,000 at September 30, 1996 which
represents an increase of $6,771,000 in working capital from September 30,1995.
Management believes it can manage the Company's cash flow requirements through
its current working capital. In addition, the Company received proceeds of
$6,342,000 from the exercise of Class "A" Warrants in the nine months ended
September 30, 1996, which has

allowed the Company to eliminate the immediate need for outside financing and
reduced the Company's interest costs.
The Company's customers consist principally of department stores and specialty
stores, including shoe boutiques. Presently, the Company sells approximately
sixty percent (60%) of its products to department stores, including Federated
Stores (Bloomingdales, Burdines, Macy's East and Macy's West) and approximately
forty percent (40%) to specialty stores, including shoe boutiques. As a result
of the merger between Federated Stores and R.H. Macy and Company, Federated
Stores presently accounts for approximately 25% of the Company's sales. As a
result, the loss of Federated Stores as a customer could have a material
adverse effect on the Company's business.
OPERATING ACTIVITIES
During the nine month period ended September 30, 1996, operating activities
used $2,558,000 of cash. The use of cash arose principally from an increase in
accounts receivable-non factored of $1,497,000, an increase in accounts
receivable factored of $1,073,000, an increase in inventories of $711,000, an
increase of prepaid expenses and other assets $842,,000, decrease in taxes on
income of $531,000, an increase in accounts payable and accrued expenses of
$753,000, an increase in other current liabilities of $183,000, and a decrease
in accrued bonuses of $230,000. Inventory purchases have increased considerably
due to increased sales volume.
The Company has lease agreements for office, warehouse, and retail space,
expiring at various times through 2007. Future obligations under these lease
agreements total $4,500,000 with an annual lease commitment of $635,000.
The company has employment agreements with various officers currently providing
for aggregate annual salaries of approximately $1,295,000, subject to annual
bonuses and annual increases as may be determined by the Company's Board of
Directors. In addition, as part of the employment agreements, the Company is
committed to pay incentive bonuses based on sales, net income, or net income
before interest and taxes to three officers.
The Company continues to increase its supply of products from foreign
manufacturers, the majority of which are located in Brazil and Mexico. Although
the Company has not entered into long-term manufacturing contracts with any of
these foreign companies, the Company believes that a sufficient number of
alternative sources exist outside of the United States for the manufacture of
its product, if current suppliers need to be replaced. In addition, because the
Company deals in U.S. currency for all transactions and intends to continue to
do so, the Company believes there will be no foreign exchange considerations.
INVESTING ACTIVITIES
During the nine month period ended September 30, 1996, the Company used cash of
$283,000 to acquire equipment and make leasehold improvements on new office,
retail and warehouse space. Additionally, the Company made an initial payment
of $1,000,000 to the owners of Diva International, inc. to acquire all the
outstanding common stock of Diva. A note has been issued for $645,000 for the
subsequent payment which can be paid in cash or the Company's common stock.

FINANCING ACTIVITIES
During the nine month period ending September 30, 1996, the Company purchased
treasury stock of $265,000 and the Company received $6,342,000 from Class "A"
warrants and options exercised. In connection with the acquisition of Diva
International, Inc., the Company has a note payable to the former owners in the
amount of $645,000. Additionally, the Company repaid $476,000 on a note assumed
in the acquisition.
INFLATION
The Company does not believe that inflation has had a material adverse effect
on sales or income during the past several years. Increases in supplies or
other operating costs could adversely affect the Company's operations; however,
the Company believes it could increase prices to offset increases in costs of
goods sold or other operating costs.
