                                     PART IV
                                OTHER INFORMATION

     (3) For the fiscal year ended August 31, 1998  ("Fiscal  1998") the Company
expects  to report  that it had net sales of  approximately  $47.4  million,  an
increase of $20.1 million from net sales of  approximately  $27.3 million in the
prior year.  The Company also expects to report that, in Fiscal 1998, it had net
income of approximately $1.1 million, a decrease of approximately  $200,000 from
net income of  approximately  $1.3 million in the prior year. Basic earnings per
share for Fiscal 1998 is expected  to be  reported  $0.32 per share  compared to
basic earnings per share of $0.42 for the prior year. The Company  believes that
the increase in sales resulted primarily from the Company's  acquisition of Kwik
International Color, Ltd. (the "Kwik  Acquisition"),  and to a lesser extent, an
increase in net sales in the Company's other United States  subsidiaries and the
inclusion of net sales for a full year resulting  from the  acquisition of Boris
Image Group,  Inc. The Company believes that the decrease in net income resulted
primarily from  restructuring  expenses of $771,000  incurred in connection with
the  consolidation  of  certain  of the  Company's  operations  due to the  Kwik
Acquisition,  the  reduction  of a  service  line and an  extraordinary  loss of
$143,000,  net of income tax benefit of  $137,000  related to the  write-off  of
deferred financing costs.
