NOTE 1 - NATURE OF BUSINESS

Workflow Management, Inc. (the "Company" or "Workflow Management") is a Delaware
corporation formed by U.S. Office Products Company,  also a Delaware corporation
("U.S.  Office  Products" or "USOP") in connection  with U.S.  Office  Products'
strategic  restructuring  plan that was consummated June 9, 1998 (the "Strategic
Restructuring  Plan"). As part of its Strategic  Restructuring Plan, U.S. Office
Products  (i)  transferred  to the  Company  substantially  all the  assets  and
liabilities  of  U.S.  Office  Products'  Print  Management  Division  and  (ii)
distributed to holders of U.S. Office Products'  common stock 14,625,268  shares
(the  "Distribution" or "Workflow  Distribution") of the Company's common stock,
par value  $.001 per share  ("Company  Common  Stock").  Holders of U.S.  Office
Products' common stock were not required to pay any consideration for the shares
of the Company Common Stock they received in the Distribution.  The Distribution
occurred on June 9, 1998 (the "Distribution Date").

Workflow  Management is an integrated graphic arts company providing  documents,
envelopes and commercial  printing to more than 22,000  businesses in the United
States  and  Canada.  The  Company  also  offers  various  print and  facilities
management   services,   which  allow  customers  to  realize  cost  savings  by
outsourcing non-core operations, as well as graphic design services and workflow
analysis.  Drawing  on its  position  in the  industry  and  its  experience  in
completing  acquisitions,  the  Company  seeks to become a  consolidator  in the
highly  fragmented  graphic arts industry.  The Company currently has over 2,100
employees and has 17 manufacturing  facilities in seven states and five Canadian
Provinces,  26 distribution centers, eight print-on-demand  centers and 59 sales
offices.


NOTE 2 -  BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The  accompanying   consolidated  financial  statements  and  related  notes  to
consolidated  financial  statements include the accounts of Workflow  Management
and the  companies  acquired in business  combinations  accounted  for under the
purchase method from their respective dates of acquisition.

For  periods  prior  to  the  Distribution  Date,  the  consolidated   financial
statements  reflect the assets,  liabilities,  divisional  equity,  revenues and
expenses  that were  directly  related to the Company as it was operated  within
U.S. Office Products. Upon the Distribution,  divisional equity was reclassified
to common stock and additional  paid-in-capital.  In cases involving  assets and
liabilities not  specifically  identifiable  to any particular  business of U.S.
Office  Products,  only those assets and liabilities  transferred to the Company
prior to the Distribution were included in the Company's  separate  consolidated
balance  sheet.  The Company's  statement of income  includes all of the related
costs of doing  business  including an allocation of certain  general  corporate
expenses  of U.S.  Office  Products  which  were not  directly  related to these
businesses. These allocations were based on a variety of factors, dependent upon
the nature of the costs being allocated.  Management  believes these allocations
were made on a reasonable basis.

In the opinion of management,  the  information  contained  herein  reflects all
adjustments  necessary to make the results of operations for the interim periods
a fair  presentation of such  operations.  All such  adjustments are of a normal
recurring  nature.  Operating  results for interim  periods are not  necessarily
indicative  of  results  that  may be  expected  for the  year as a  whole.  The
consolidated  financial  statements included in this Form 10-Q should be read in
conjunction with the Company's  audited  consolidated  financial  statements and
notes  thereto  included  in the  Company's  Annual  Report on Form 10-K for the
fiscal year ended April 25, 1998 ("Fiscal 1998").

NOTE 3 - LONG-TERM DEBT

The Company entered into a secured $150.0 million revolving credit facility (the
"Credit Facility") underwritten and agented by Bankers Trust Company on June 9,
1998. The Credit Facility matures on June 10, 2003 and is secured by
substantially all assets of the Company. The Credit Facility is subject to terms
and conditions typical of a credit facility of such type and size, including
certain financial covenants. Interest rate options are available to the Company
conditioned on certain leverage tests. The maximum rate of interest is the prime
rate from time to time in effect. The Credit Facility is also available to fund

covenants.

Effective   April  26,  1998,  the  Company  adopted  SFAS  No.  130  "Reporting
Comprehensive  Income" which establishes  standards for reporting and display of
changes in equity  from  non-owner  sources  in the  financial  statements.  The
statement  requires minimum pension liability  adjustments,  unrealized gains or
losses  on  available-for-sale   securities  and  foreign  currency  translation
adjustment,  which prior to adoption were reported  separately in  shareholders'
equity, to be included in other comprehensive income.

The components of comprehensive income are as follows:

NOTE 5 - EARNINGS PER SHARE

In February 1997, the Financial  Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued SFAS
No. 128, "Earnings Per Share." SFAS No. 128 establishes  standards for computing
and  presenting  earnings  per share  ("EPS").  SFAS No. 128  requires  the dual
presentation  of basic and diluted EPS on the face of the  statement  of income.
Basic EPS  excludes  dilution  and is computed by dividing  income  available to
common  shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding
for the period.  Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur if
securities or other  contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted
into common stock.  The Company  adopted SFAS No. 128 during Fiscal 1998 and has
restated  all prior  period EPS data.  The  following  information  presents the
Company's computations of basic and diluted EPS for the periods presented in the
consolidated statement of income.

The Company had additional employee stock options outstanding during the periods

were anti-dilutive.


NOTE 6 - BUSINESS COMBINATIONS

During Fiscal 1998, the Company completed two business  combinations  which were
both accounted for under the purchase method (the "Purchased Companies").

The  following  presents the  unaudited  pro forma  results of operations of the
Company for the three month periods ended July 25, 1998 and July 26, 1997, as if
the Strategic  Restructuring Plan and the purchase acquisitions  completed since
the  beginning of Fiscal 1998 had been  consummated  at the  beginning of Fiscal
1998. The pro forma results of operations  include certain pro forma adjustments
including  the  amortization  of  intangible  assets,  reductions  in  executive
compensation  at the Purchased  Companies and an increase in corporate  overhead
expenses as if the Company was a stand-alone entity for the entire period:

NOTE 7 - SEGMENT REPORTING

In June 1997,  the FASB issued SFAS No. 131,  "Disclosures  about Segments of an
Enterprise  and Related  Information."  SFAS No. 131  establishes  standards for
reporting  information about operating  segments in annual and interim financial
statements. Operating segments are determined consistent with the way management
organizes and evaluates  financial  information  internally for making decisions
and assessing performance.  It also requires related disclosures about products,
geographic  areas and major  customers.  SFAS 131 is effective  for fiscal years
beginning after December 15, 1997. The Company intends to adopt SFAS No. 131 for
the year ending April 24, 1999.  Implementation of this disclosure standard will
not affect the Company's financial position or results of operations.


NOTE 8 - SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

Subsequent to July 25, 1998, the Company announced that it had signed letters of
intent to purchase four companies for an aggregate purchase price of $13.5
million consisting entirely of cash. The transactions include three document
distribution companies based in Puerto Rico, New York City and Los Angeles and
one envelope manufacturer in New York City. The acquisitions are expected to 
close in September 1998.

In addition to the signed letters of intent, the Company also announced that its
Board of Directors approved a share repurchase program of up to two million
shares of Company Common Stock.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations.

This  Quarterly  Report on Form 10-Q contains  forward-looking  statements  that
involve  risks  and   uncertainties.   When  used  in  this  Report,  the  words
"anticipate,"  "believe,"  "estimate,"  "intend,"  "may,"  "will,"  "expect" and
similar expressions as they relate to Workflow  Management,  Inc. (the "Company"
or  "Workflow  Management")  or its  management  are  intended to identify  such
forward-looking  statements.  The  Company's  actual  results,   performance  or
achievements  could differ  materially from the results expressed in, or implied
by, these forward-looking statements, which are made only as of the dates
hereof.


Introduction

Workflow  Management is an integrated graphic arts company providing  documents,
envelopes and commercial  printing to more than 22,000  businesses in the United
States and Canada. Prior to the consummation of the U.S. Office Products Company
("U.S.   Office  Products")   strategic   restructuring   plan  (the  "Strategic
Restructuring Plan") the Company's  subsidiaries  comprised the Print Management
Division of U.S. Office Products, which acquired such companies on the following
dates:  SFI  Corp.,  the  predecessor  to SFI of  Delaware,  LLC,  and a related
company,  Hano Document  Printers,  Inc., on January 24, 1997;  United Envelope,
Co., the predecessor to United  Envelope,  LLC, and the related  companies,  Rex
Envelope Co., Huxley Envelope Corp. and Pocono Envelope Corp. on April 25, 1997;
Data Business  Forms Limited on April 26, 1997;  FMI Graphics,  Inc.  ("FMI") on
July 17, 1997, which was  subsequently  merged into SFI Corp.; and Astrid Offset
Corp.  ("Astrid") on February 26, 1998.  As part of the Company's  spin-off from
U.S. Office  Products,  these companies  became direct or indirect  wholly-owned
subsidiaries of Workflow Management.

The following  discussion  should be read in conjunction  with the  consolidated
historical financial statements,  including the related notes thereto, appearing
elsewhere  in this  Quarterly  Report  on Form  10-Q,  as well as the  Company's
audited  consolidated  financial  statements,  and notes thereto, for the fiscal
year ended April 25, 1998  ("Fiscal  1998")  included  in the  Company's  Annual
Report on Form 10-K.


Consolidated Results of Operations

     Three Months Ended July 25, 1998 Compared to Three Months Ended
July 26, 1997

Consolidated  revenues  increased 10.1%, from $82.2 million for the three months
ended July 26, 1997,  to $90.5 million for the three months ended July 25, 1998.
This  increase was primarily due to the inclusion of FMI and Astrid (the "Fiscal
1998 Purchased  Companies") in the  consolidated  results of the Company for the
entire  three  months  ended July 25, 1998 and  increased  envelope and document
sales resulting from sales to two large new customer  accounts that were secured
during Fiscal 1998.

International   revenues  decreased  4.5%,  from  $30.8  million,  or  37.5%  of
consolidated  revenues,  for the three  months  ended  July 26,  1997,  to $29.4
million, or 32.5% of consolidated  revenues, for the three months ended July 25,
1998.  International  revenues  consisted  exclusively of revenues  generated in
Canada.  This  decrease was  entirely due to a decline in the Canadian  exchange
rate during the three months ended July 25, 1998.  International  revenues, when
stated in the local  currency,  increased  $478,000  (Canadian)  or 1.1% for the
three  months  ended July 25, 1998 when  compared to the three months ended July
26, 1997.

Gross profit increased 12.1%, from $21.9 million, or 26.6% of revenues,  for the
three months ended July 26, 1997, to $24.5  million,  or 27.1% of revenues,  for
the three months ended July 25, 1998. The increase in gross profit was primarily
due to the inclusion of the Fiscal 1998 Purchased  Companies in the consolidated
results of the Company for the entire  period and the  additional  gross  profit
generated from the two new customer accounts.  The increase in gross profit as a
percentage of revenues was due to the Fiscal 1998 Purchased Companies generating
gross profit at a higher percentage of revenues than was historically recognized
by the Company.

                                    Page 11
<PAGE>




Selling,  general  and  administrative  expenses  increased  13.0%,  from  $16.9
million,  or 20.5% of revenues,  for the three  months  ended July 26, 1997,  to
$19.1 million,  or 21.1% of revenues,  for the three months ended July 25, 1998.
The increase in selling,  general and administrative  expenses was primarily due
to the  inclusion of the Fiscal 1998  Purchased  Companies in the results of the
Company for the entire  period and the  additional  corporate  overhead that was
incurred  during the three months ended July 25, 1998 as a result of the Company
operating as a  stand-alone  public  entity  following  its spin-off  under U.S.
Office  Products'  Strategic  Restructuring  Plan.  This  increase was partially
offset by the benefits resulting from significant  headcount reductions and cost
saving measures employed by the Company's Canadian  operations during the end of
Fiscal 1998. The increase in selling,  general and administrative  expenses as a
percentage  of sales during the three  months ended July 25, 1998 was  primarily
due to the additional corporate overhead incurred during the period.

Amortization  expense  increased $84,000 from $49,000 for the three months ended
July 26,  1997,  to $133,000  for the three  months  ended July 25,  1998.  This
increase  was due  exclusively  to the  inclusion  of the Fiscal 1998  Purchased
Companies for the entire three month period ended July 25, 1998.

The Company  incurred  expenses of  approximately  $3.8 million during the three
months  ended July 25, 1998  associated  with U.S.  Office  Products'  Strategic
Restructuring Plan. Under Generally Accepted Accounting Principles,  the Company
was  required  to record a  one-time,  non-cash  expense of  approximately  $3.0
million with a corresponding  contribution to capital  relating to the tender of
stock options by Workflow  Management  employees in U.S. Office Products' equity
tender  offer at June 9,  1998  (the  "Distribution  Date").  As a result of the
Distribution,  the Company also incurred an additional  $750,000 in  transaction
costs  during the three  months  ended July 25, 1998  relating to the  Strategic
Restructuring  Plan for legal,  accounting and financial  advisory  services and
various other fees.

Interest expense,  net of interest income,  increased 107.9%,  from $543,000 for
the three months ended July 26, 1997, to $1.1 million for the three months ended
July 25 1998.  This  increase in net interest  expense was due to the  increased
level of debt  outstanding  during the three  months  ended  July 25,  1998 as a
result of the Company securing a $150.0 million revolving credit facility to pay
off its debt to U.S. Office Products at the Distribution Date.

Other (income)  expense  decreased from $100,000 of other income,  for the three
months ended July 26, 1997,  to $17,000 of other  expense,  for the three months
ended July 25, 1998.  Other income  primarily  represents gains and/or losses on
sales of equipment and miscellaneous other income and expense items.

Provision  for income  taxes  decreased  from $1.8  million for the three months
ended July 26,  1997 to  $163,000  for the three  months  ended  July 25,  1998,
reflecting effective income tax rates of 40.4% and 43.9%,  respectively.  During
both  periods,  the  effective  income tax rates  reflect the  recording  of tax
provisions at the federal  statutory rate of 35.0%,  plus appropriate  state and
local taxes. In addition,  the effective tax rates were increased to reflect the
incurrence  of  non-deductible  goodwill  amortization  expense  resulting  from
acquisition of the Fiscal 1998 Purchased Companies.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

At July 25, 1998,  the Company had cash of $4.2  million and working  capital of
$56.7  million.  The Company's  capitalization,  defined as the sum of long-term
debt and  stockholders'  equity,  at July 25,  1998,  was  approximately  $107.4
million.

Workflow  Management  uses a  centralized  approach to cash  management  and the
financing  of its  operations.  As a result,  minimal  amounts  of cash and cash
equivalents  are  typically on hand as any excess cash would be used to pay down
the  Company's  revolving  credit  facility.  Cash at July 25,  1998,  primarily
represented  customer  collections and in-transit cash sweeps from the Company's
subsidiaries at the end of the quarter.

Workflow  Management's  anticipated  capital  expenditures  budget  for the next
twelve months is approximately $10.0 million for new equipment and maintenance.

During the three  months  ended July 25,  1998,  net cash  provided by operating
activities  was $8.1  million.  Net cash used in investing  activities  was $3.5
million, including $2.6 million used for additions to property and equipment and
$1.0  million  used for a  deposit  on  machinery.  Net cash  used in  financing
activities  was  $675,000,  which  included  $33.0  million of cash paid to U.S.
Office  Products  under its  Strategic  Restructuring  Plan which was  partially
offset by the  Company's  net  borrowings  of $23.8  million and an $8.5 million
capital contribution by U.S. Office Products.

During  the  three  months  ended  July 26,  1997,  net cash  used in  operating
activities  was $2.0  million.  Net cash used in investing  activities  was $1.3
million,  including  $1.0 million used for additions to property and  equipment.
Net  borrowings  increased  $1.5 million  during the three months ended July 26,
1997, which consisted  primarily of $1.3 million in net working capital advances
from U.S. Office Products.

Workflow  Management has  significant  operations in Canada.  Net sales from the
Company's Canadian operations accounted for approximately 32.5% of the Company's
total net sales for the three months ended July 25, 1998. As a result,  Workflow
Management  is  subject  to  certain  risks  inherent  in  conducting   business
internationally,  including  fluctuations in currency exchange rates. Changes in
exchange  rates  may  have  a  significant  effect  on the  Company's  business,
financial condition and results of operations.

During the three  months  ended July 25,  1998,  the  Canadian  dollar  weakened
against the U.S.  dollar  ("USD").  The Canadian  exchange  rate  declined  from
approximately  $0.70 USD at April 25, 1998 to $0.67 USD at July 25,  1998.  This
resulted in a reduction  in  stockholders'  equity,  through a foreign  currency
translation adjustment, of approximately $1.4 million,  reflecting the impact of
the  declining  exchange  rate  on the  Company's  investments  in its  Canadian
subsidiary. The Company is currently reviewing certain hedge transaction options
to mitigate the effect of currency fluctuations.

As a result of the  provisions  of Section 355 of the  Internal  Revenue Code of
1986, as amended,  and certain tax contribution  agreements  entered into by the
Company in  connection  with the  Distribution,  the  Company  may be subject to
constraints on its ability to issue  additional  shares of the Company's  common
stock in certain  transactions for two years following the Distribution Date. In
particular,  if 50% or more, by vote or value,  of the capital stock of Workflow
Management  is  acquired  by one or more  persons  acting  pursuant to a plan or
series of transactions that includes the Distribution,  Workflow Management will
suffer  significant  tax  liability.  The Company will evaluate any  significant
future issuance of capital stock to avoid the imposition of such tax liability.

The  Strategic  Restructuring  Plan called for an allocation of $45.6 million of
debt by U.S. Office Products to Workflow  Management at the  Distribution  Date.
This  allocation  resulted in the forgiveness of $8.5 million of debt during the
three months ended July 25, 1998, which was reflected in the Company's financial
statements as a contribution of capital by U.S. Office Products.

The Company entered into a secured $150.0 million revolving credit facility (the
"Credit Facility")  underwritten and agented by Bankers Trust Company on June 9,
1998.  The  Credit  Facility  matures  on  June  10,  2003  and  is  secured  by
substantially all assets of the Company. The Credit Facility is subject to terms
and  conditions  typical of a credit  facility of such type and size,  including
certain financial covenants.  Interest rate options are available to the Company
conditioned on certain leverage tests. The maximum rate of interest is the prime
rate from time to time in effect.  Workflow  Management  expects that the Credit
Facility is adequate to fund working capital and capital  expenditure needs. The
Credit   Facility  is  also  available  to  fund  the  cash  portion  of  future
acquisitions, subject to the maintenance of bank covenants.

The Company repaid its debt owed to U.S.  Office  Products with funds available
under the Credit Facility during the three months ended July 25, 1998.  At
September  1, 1998,  the  Company  had  approximately  $30.3  million
outstanding   under  the  Credit  Facility,   at  an  annual  interest  rate  of
approximately  6.96%, and $119.7 million available under the Credit Facility for
acquisitions and working capital purposes.

The Company anticipates that its current cash on hand, cash flow from operations
and additional  financing available under the Credit Facility will be sufficient
to meet the Company's liquidity  requirements for its operations for the next 12
months. However, the Company intends to pursue acquisitions,  which are expected
to be funded  through  cash,  stock or a  combination  thereof.  There can be no
assurance that  additional  sources of financing will not be required during the
next 12 months or thereafter.


Fluctuations in Quarterly Results of Operations

Workflow  Management's  envelope business is subject to seasonal influences from
year-end  mailings.  As the Company continues to complete  acquisitions,  it may
become  subject to other  seasonal  influences if the businesses it acquires are
seasonal.  Quarterly  results also may be  materially  affected by the timing of
acquisitions,  the timing and magnitude of costs  related to such  acquisitions,
variations in the prices paid by the Company for the products it sells,  the mix
of products  sold and  general  economic  conditions.  Moreover,  the  operating
margins of companies  acquired may differ  substantially  from those of Workflow
Management,  which could  contribute  to further  fluctuation  in its  quarterly
operating  results.  Therefore,  results  for any  quarter  are not  necessarily
indicative of the results that the Company may achieve for any subsequent fiscal
quarter or for a full fiscal year.


Inflation

The Company does not believe  that  inflation  has had a material  impact on its
results of  operations  during the three month  periods  ended July 25, 1998 and
July 26, 1997, respectively.


New Accounting Pronouncements

Reporting  Comprehensive  Income.  In June  1997,  FASB  issued  SFAS  No.  130,
"Reporting  Comprehensive  Income." SFAS No. 130  establishes  standards for the
reporting  and display of  comprehensive  income and its  components  (revenues,
expenses,  gains  and  losses)  in a  full  set  of  general  purpose  financial
statements. SFAS No. 130 requires that all items required to be recognized under
accounting  standards as  components  of  comprehensive  income be reported in a
financial  statement  that is  displayed  with  the  same  prominence  as  other
financial statements. SFAS No. 130 is effective for fiscal years beginning after
December 15, 1997.  Reclassification of financial statements for earlier periods
provided for comparative  purposes is required.  Workflow Management has adopted
SFAS No. 130 for the fiscal year ending April 24, 1999.

                                    Page 14

Disclosures  about  Segments of an Enterprise and Related  Information.  In June
1997, the FASB issued SFAS No. 131, "Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise
and Related  Information."  SFAS No. 131  establishes  standards  for  reporting
information about operating segments in annual and interim financial statements.
Operating segments are determined  consistent with the way management  organizes
and  evaluates  financial  information   internally  for  making  decisions  and
assessing  performance.  It also requires  related  disclosures  about products,
geographic  areas and major  customers.  SFAS 131 is effective  for fiscal years
beginning after December 15, 1997. The Company intends to adopt SFAS No. 131 for
the year ending April 24, 1999.  Implementation of this disclosure standard will
not affect the Company's financial position or results of operations.


Year 2000 Issue

Many existing computer programs were designed and developed without considering
the impact of the upcoming change in the century and consequently use only two
digits to identify a year in the date field. If not corrected, many computer
applications could fail or create erroneous results by or at the year 2000 (the
"Year 2000 Issue" or "Year 2000").

If the Company and its customers, suppliers and vendors were not Year 2000
compliant by January 1, 2000, the most reasonably likely worst case scenario
would be a temporary shutdown or cessation of distribution or manufacturing
operations at one or more of the Company's facilities and a temporary inability
of the Company to timely process customer orders and deliver products to
customers. Any such shutdown could have a material adverse effect on the
Company's results of operations, liquidity and financial position. The Company's
individual business units are currently identifying and considering various
contingency options, including identification of alternate suppliers, vendors
and service providers, and manual alternatives to systems operations, which
allow them to minimize the risks of any unresolved Year 2000 problems on their
operations and to minimize the effect of any unforeseen Year 2000 failures.

The Company estimates that it will incur approximately $6.0 million of
incremental cost in connection with the Year 2000 Issue, of which approximately
$4.5 million has been incurred to date. The Company anticipates funding future
Year 2000 Issue costs with funds available from operations and the Company's
credit facility with its principal lender.

While costs associated with the Year 2000 Issue may be material in one or more
of the Company's fiscal quarters, the Company does not believe that the Year
2000 Issue will have a material adverse effect on the long-term results of
operations, liquidity or financial position of the Company. However, no
assurance can be given that unforeseen circumstances will not arise as the
Company addresses the Year 2000 Issue. Specific factors that may cause the
Company to experience unanticipated problems with respect to the Year 2000 Issue
include the availability and cost of adequately trained personnel, the ability
to locate and correct all affected computer code, and the timing and success of
Year 2000 efforts by the Company's customers, suppliers and vendors.

During the period immediately following the Strategic Restructuring Plan of U.S.
Office Products, the Company had to postpone its Year 2000 compliance project
because of the inability to allocate adequate personnel. The Company intends to
have its proprietary software systems and related services (known as GetSmart
and Informa) Year 2000 ready by the end of calendar year 1998. With respect to
the third party vendors components, the Company will use its best efforts to
replace third-party software, hardware, and computer systems that are currently
not Year 2000 ready by December 31, 1999.



Factors Affecting the Company's Business

Risks Associated with Acquisitions

                                    Page 15

<PAGE>
One of the Company's  strategies is to increase its revenues and the markets it
serves through the acquisition of additional  graphic arts  businesses.  There
can be no assurance  that  suitable candidates for  acquisitions  can be
identified  or, if suitable  candidates are identified, that acquisitions can be
completed on acceptable terms, if at all.

Integration of acquired companies may involve a number of special risks that
could have a material  adverse effect on  the  Company's  operations  and
financial  performance,  including  adverse short-term  effects on its reported
operating results  (including those adverse short-term  effects  caused by
severance  payments  to  employees  of  acquired companies,  restructuring
charges  associated with the  acquisitions  and other expenses  associated  with
a  change  of  control,  as  well  as  non-recurring acquisition costs including
accounting and legal fees,  investment banking fees, recognition    of
transaction-related    obligations    and   various   other acquisition-related
costs);  diversion of management's attention;  difficulties with  retention,
hiring and training of key personnel;  risks  associated  with unanticipated
problems  or legal  liabilities;  and  amortization  of  acquired intangible
assets.  Furthermore,  although  Workflow  Management  conducts  due diligence
and   generally    requires    representations,    warranties    and
indemnifications  from the former owners of acquired companies,  there can be no
assurance that such owners will have  accurately  represented  the financial and
operating  conditions of their companies.  If an acquired company's financial or
operating  results were  misrepresented,  the acquisition  could have a material
adverse effect on the results of operations and financial  condition of Workflow
Management.

Workflow Management currently intends to finance its future  acquisitions by
using shares of Company Common Stock,  cash,  borrowed  funds or a combination
thereof.  If the Company Common  Stock  does not  maintain a  sufficient  market
value,  if the price of Company Common Stock is highly volatile, or if potential
acquisition  candidates are  otherwise  unwilling  to  accept  Company  Common
Stock  as  part  of  the consideration  for the  sale of their  businesses,
Workflow  Management  may be required to use more of its cash  resources or more
borrowed  funds in order to initiate and maintain its acquisition  program.  If
Workflow Management does not have sufficient cash resources, its growth could be
limited unless it is able to obtain additional capital through debt or equity
offerings.

Approximately  $13.9  million,  or  9.4% of the Company's total assets as of
July 25, 1998,  represents  intangible  assets, the significant  majority of
which is goodwill.  Goodwill  represents  the excess of cost over the fair
market value of net assets acquired in business  combinations accounted for
under the purchase  method.  The Company  amortizes  goodwill on a straight line
method over a period of 40 years with the amount  amortized  in a particular
period constituting a non-cash expense that reduces the Company's net income.
The Company will be required to periodically evaluate the recoverability of
goodwill by reviewing the anticipated undiscounted future cash flows from the
operations  of the  acquired  companies  and  comparing  such cash  flows to the
carrying  value  of the  associated  goodwill.  If  goodwill  becomes  impaired,
Workflow Management  would be required to write down the  carrying  value of the

                                    Page 16

<PAGE>



goodwill and incur a related charge to its income. A reduction in net income
resulting from the amortization or write down of goodwill could have a material
and adverse impact upon the market price of the Company Common Stock.


Risks Associated with Canadian  Operations.

Workflow Management has significant operations in Canada. Net sales from the
Company's Canadian operations accounted for approximately  32.5% and 36.2% of
the Company's total net sales in the three months  ended  July  25,  1998  and
the  fiscal  year  ended  April  25,  1998, respectively.  As a result, Workflow
Management  is subject  to certain  risks inherent in  conducting  business
internationally,  including  fluctuations  in currency exchange rates. Workflow
Management is also subject to risks associated with the imposition of protective
legislation and regulations,  including those resulting from trade or foreign
policy.  In addition,  because of the Company's Canadian  operations,
significant  revenues  and expenses  are  denominated  in Canadian dollars.
Changes in exchange rates may have a significant effect on the Company's
business,  financial  condition and results of  operations.  Workflow Management
does not currently engage in currency hedging transactions.

For additional risk factors refer to the Company's Annual Report on Form
10-K for the year ended April 25, 1998.
