                    NOTES TO UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                               SEPTEMBER 27, 1997

1.  BASIS OF PRESENTATION

         The accompanying unaudited interim financial statements of Printpack,
Inc. ("Printpack" or "Company") have been prepared by Company management and
are presented on a basis in accordance with the accounting policies stated in
the June 28, 1997 financial statements and should be read in conjunction with
the Notes to Financial Statements appearing therein. As described in the above
noted financial statements, effective July 1996, a legal reorganization was
consummated which involved the Company. As such, the Company's shareholders'
equity has been presented to reflect the reorganization. In the opinion of
Printpack management, all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring
adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation of such financial statements
have been included in the accompanying interim financial statements. The
results of operations for the 13 week period ended September 27, 1997 are not
necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full fiscal year.
Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current
year presentation.

2.  ACQUISITION

         The accompanying unaudited interim financial statements include
certain assets and liabilities and operating results of certain operations
acquired from James River Corporation of Virginia's ("James River") Flexible
Packaging Business ("JR Flexible") as of August 22, 1996. The acquisition was
accounted for using the purchase method of accounting. Accordingly, the
purchase price of approximately $370 million includes approximately $10 million
of severance and other exit costs primarily associated with the announced
closing of the San Leandro and Dayton plants, and approximately $1 million in
other acquisition costs, and has been allocated on the basis of the estimated
fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed. The purchase price
was allocated as follows:

<TABLE>
         <S>                                                         <C>
         Working capital, other than cash........................... $ 58,737
         Property, plant, and equipment.............................  250,810
         Goodwill...................................................   43,851
         Other intangibles..........................................   26,500
         Other liabilities assumed..................................  (10,123)
                                                                     --------
                              Total purchase price.................. $369,775
</TABLE>

         This allocation has resulted in goodwill of approximately $43.9
million and other intangibles of approximately $26.5 million, which are being
amortized on a straight-line basis over 15 years.

         Accruals related to the announced closure of the two plants represent
Company management's best estimate of the anticipated costs to be incurred. The
net assets of these facilities are recorded as Net Assets Held for Sale in the
Company's balance sheet.

         Pro forma results, as if the acquisition transaction occurred on July
1, 1995, are as follows:

         The pro forma presentation is not necessarily indicative of either the
results of operations that would have occurred had the acquisition taken place
at the beginning of the period or of future results of the Company.

3.  INCOME TAXES

         Printpack's effective income tax rate exclusive of the one time charge
described below was approximately 35% and 39%, respectively, for the 13 weeks
ended September 27, 1997 and September 28, 1996. The decrease in the effective
tax rate for the period was primarily due to the change in tax status for the
operations formerly conducted by Printpack Enterprises, Inc., which, effective
June 30, 1996, elected to change its Subchapter S tax election to be taxed as a
Subchapter C corporation. The charge as a result of the change in tax status
was approximately $4.0 million and was reflected in the results of operations
for the 13 weeks ended September 28, 1996.

         The Company paid no income taxes during either of the 13 week periods
ended September 27, 1997 or September 28, 1996.

4.  INVENTORIES

         Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or current market value.
Cost is determined using the last-in, first-out (LIFO) method.

         Inventories are summarized as follows:

             NOTES TO UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED)

5.  CONTINGENCIES

         Printpack is subject to legal proceedings and other claims which arise
in the ordinary course of business. In the opinion of management, the outcome
of these actions will not materially affect the financial position, results of
operations or cash flows of the Company.

6.  DEBT AND EXTRAORDINARY ITEM

         During the first quarter of fiscal 1997, the Company completed a
refinancing arrangement contemporaneously with the acquisition of certain
manufacturing facilities from James River. This refinancing provided for the
issuance of approximately $200 million senior subordinated notes bearing
interest at 10 5/8% due 2006 and the issuance of approximately $100 million of
senior notes bearing interest at 9 7/8% due 2004. In addition, the Company also
received approximately $170 million from the proceeds of a term loan and
established a revolving credit facility of approximately $105 million with a
bank syndicate. To complete the financing of the transaction, the Company also
entered into an asset-backed accounts receivable securitization arrangement and
received approximately $23 million of proceeds from the initial borrowing under
the arrangement. Under this arrangement, the Company received additional
proceeds of $18 million during the quarter ended December 28, 1996, of $5
million during the quarter ended March 29, 1997, and of $4 million during the
quarter ended September 27, 1997.

         As a result of the refinancing, the Company recognized an
extraordinary loss of approximately $1,631,000, net of applicable income tax
benefit of $999,000, in the Company's results of operations for the thirteen
weeks ended September 28, 1996.                 
<PAGE>   9

                                PRINTPACK, INC.

                      MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
                OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

         Thirteen weeks ended September 27, 1997 (fiscal 1998) compared to
September 28, 1996 (fiscal 1997)

         Net Sales. Net sales increased $58.4 million or 38.7% to $209.2
million in the fiscal 1998 period from $150.8 million in the fiscal 1997 period
due primarily to sales to both new and existing customers resulting from the
acquisition completed on August 22, 1996. Sales volume growth, other than from
the acquisition, was customary except for a loss of sales of approximately $4
million resulting from the strike discussed below. Price changes to customers
during the period were insignificant.

         Gross Margin. Cost of goods sold increased $55.8 million or 42.8% to
$185.9 million in fiscal 1998 from $130.2 million in fiscal 1997. Cost of goods
sold increased to 88.9% of net sales in fiscal 1998 from 86.3% in fiscal 1997,
primarily due to higher manufacturing costs in the plants acquired from JR
Flexible and to approximately $7 million of strike related costs resulting
from the strike discussed below. Gross margin, consequently, increased $6.3
million or 37.0% to $23.2 million in fiscal 1998 from $17.0 million in fiscal
1997.

         Operating Expenses. Selling, administrative and research and
development expenses increased $3.3 million or 21.8% to $18.5 million in fiscal
1998 from $15.2 million in fiscal 1997, primarily due to additional personnel
and related costs resulting from the acquisition. Selling, administrative and
research and development expenses as a percentage of net sales declined to 8.9%
in fiscal 1998 from 10.1% in fiscal 1997 as a result of additional sales from
the acquisition.

         Operating Income. Income from operations of $3.5 million was realized
in fiscal 1998 compared to $1.4 million in fiscal 1997. The increase was due to
higher sales volume partially offset by higher cost of goods sold, by higher
selling, administrative and research and development expenses, and by lost
volume and additional costs resulting from the strike discussed below.

         Other Income and Expense. Interest expense increased $6.5 million or
103.7% to $12.8 million in fiscal 1998 from $6.3 million in fiscal 1997 due to
increased borrowings incurred in connection with the acquisition on August 22,
1996. In fiscal 1997 the Company incurred debt prepayment fees of $1.6 million,
net of the applicable tax benefit, on its indebtedness refinanced in
conjunction with the acquisition.

         An income tax benefit of $3.0 million was recorded in fiscal 1998
compared to a tax expense of $1.9 million in fiscal 1997. This change is
primarily due to the change in tax status for the operations formerly conducted
by Printpack Enterprises, Inc., which, effective June 30, 1996, elected to
change its Subchapter S tax election to be taxed as a Subchapter C corporation.
The charge as a result of the change in tax status was approximately $4.0
million and was reflected in the results of operations for the 13 weeks ended
September 28, 1996.

         Employees. At September 27, 1997, the Company had approximately 3,500
employees, of which approximately 1,100 at five manufacturing facilities are 
covered by collective bargaining agreements. Although the Company considers
relations with its employees to be generally good, and labor contracts were
recently renegotiated in New Castle, Delaware; St. Louis, Missouri; and Orange,
Texas, a similar contract was offered to the employees of the Greensburg,
Indiana plant, but was rejected. A strike by the 380 employees at the facility
ensued beginning in the last week of June 1997 and lasted until September 12,
1997. The

Company is currently attempting to complete the negotiations of a collective
bargaining agreement with the union representing the Greensburg employees.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

         Cash provided by operating activities totaled $12.9 million in the 13
week period ended September 27, 1997 compared to $15.8 million in the
corresponding period of the prior fiscal year. The net loss in the first 13
weeks of fiscal 1998, after adding back depreciation, amortization, and
write-off of margin on acquired inventory of $12.6 million, provided $7.0
million in cash compared to $4.6 million in the corresponding period of fiscal
1997. An additional $6.0 million in the fiscal 1998 period, primarily from
working capital decreases, was provided compared to $11.2 million in the
corresponding period of fiscal 1997.

         Management estimates its operating cash flow for the 13 week period 
ended September 27, 1997 was approximately $16.7 million (net of a reduction of
approximately $9.3 million for margin on lost sales volume and strike costs
related to the strike at the Greensburg facility) compared to approximately
$14.4 million in the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year.

         Capital expenditures were $9.0 million in the 13 week period ended
September 27, 1997 compared to $2.8 million in the corresponding period of the
prior fiscal year, excluding the acquisition of JR Flexible, for which the
finalized payment was $369.8 million. Management estimates its maintenance
capital expenditures for fiscal 1998 will be approximately $15 million and
total capital expenditures will approximate $40 million.

         Financing activities in fiscal 1998 were negligible but were
substantial in the first 13 weeks of fiscal 1997 in connection with the
acquisition. In the fiscal 1997 period, $154.0 million of principal was repaid,
along with $16.6 million in prepayment premiums and issuance costs, from the
proceeds of $470 million of senior and senior subordinated notes, $48 million
in a revolving credit facility and $23 million in a receivable securitization
facility. Total outstanding debt at September 27, 1997 of approximately $538.4
million included $228 million of floating rate and $310.4 million of fixed rate
obligations. At September 27, 1997 the Company had approximately $93 million
available for borrowings under its credit agreements.

         The Company's primary liquidity needs are for capital expenditures,
debt service and working capital and its primary sources of liquidity are cash
flows from operations and borrowings under its existing bank credit facilities.
The Company uses borrowings under its bank credit facilities to meet seasonal
fluctuations in working capital requirements, which generally peak during
January through March when sales volumes generally are lowest. The Company
believes that its sources of liquidity will be adequate to meet its anticipated
requirements for liquidity for at least the next twelve months.
