SPINNAKER INDUSTRIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.  The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include
    Spinnaker Industries, Inc. and its operating subsidiaries, Central Products
    Company (100% owned), Brown-Bridge Industries, Inc. (80.1% owned) and
    Entoleter, Inc. (100.0% owned) (collectively the "Registrant").  On October
    4, 1995, Central Products Acquisition Corporation acquired from Unisource
    Worldwide, Inc. and Alco Standard Corporation ("Alco"), which was
    Unisource's parent, the Central Products Company operating unit ("CPC"). 
    The acquisition of CPC consisted of a purchase of the stock of Central
    Products Company and of the assets of Unisource related to CPC's business. 
    The purchase price under the agreement was approximately $80 million. 
    Central Products Acquisition Corporation, subsequently renamed Central
    Products Company, is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Spinnaker Industries,
    Inc. and was formed to acquire CPC, which manufactures and sells adhesive-
    backed materials, specifically water-activated and pressure-sensitive
    carton sealing tapes.  

    The acquisition was accounted for as a purchase with the purchase price
    (subject to adjustment upon finalization of certain acquisition costs)
    allocated to the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed.

    The operating results of CPC are included in the consolidated statements of
    operations for the three month and nine month periods ended September 30,
    1996, thus comparisons to corresponding 1995 periods are not necessarily
    indicative of operating trends.  The following pro forma information, which
    is based on information currently available to the Registrant, shows the
    results of the Registrant's operations presented as though the purchase of
    CPC had been made at the beginning of 1995.

2.  The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have
    been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles
    for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q
    and Article 10 of Regulation S-X.  Accordingly, they do not include all of
    the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting
    principles for complete financial statements.  In the opinion of
    management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals)
    considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating
    results for the period ended September 30, 1996, are not necessarily
    indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ended December
    31, 1996.  For further information, refer to the consolidated financial
    statements

4.  The Registrant, as more fully described in Note 5 of the Condensed
    Consolidated Financial Statements, issued $115 million of 10-3/4 percent
    senior-secured debt subsequent to September 30, 1996 (see Note 5 of the
    Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements).  The proceeds from
    the debt offering were primarily used to extinguish outstanding term and
    revolver debt obligations described below, and satisfy debt issue costs.  

    At September 30, 1996, the Registrant maintained short-term lines of credit
    with banks for working capital needs at each subsidiary that aggregated
    $45.5 million.  The Registrant had cash advances of approximately $36.0
    million outstanding under the lines of credit.  Credit availability under
    these lines of credit at September 30, 1996 was $6.4 million.  At September
    30, 1996, the interest rates in effect ranged from 9.00% to 10.75%.  Credit
    availability is subject to certain variables, such as the amount of
    inventory and receivables eligible to be included in a borrowing base.

    Following is a summary of long term debt of Registrant at September 30,
    1996, and December 31, 1995:
                                                              1996         1995

    On April 5, 1996, the Registrant refinanced the $25 and $5 million
    subordinated notes and in connection with the refinancing borrowed
    $8,500,000 ("Bridge Loan") from the bank.  Concurrently with the closing of
    the Bridge Loan, the Registrant paid Alco $7.5 million.  The unpaid balance
    of the original $25 million subordinated notes, together with a $750,000
    balance owed on a warehouse facility acquired from Alco was restructured
    into a series of new convertible subordinated notes aggregating $20.25
    million ("Convertible Notes").  In May 1996, $6.0 million of the
    Convertible Notes was converted into common stock of the Registrant at a
    conversion price of approximately $35 per share.

5.  On October 23, 1996, the Registrant completed the issuance of $115,000,000
    of 10-3/4 percent senior-secured debt due 2006.  The notes were issued in a
    private placement under Rule 144A and have not been registered under the
    Securities Act of 1933.  The debt proceeds were primarily used to
    recapitalize the Registrant and extinguish previously existing credit
    facilities.  In addition, the Registrant established a $40 million asset-
    backed senior-secured revolving credit facility.  As of November 14, 1996,
    there is approximately $250,000 outstanding against the new revolver
    facility.

    The extinguishment of debt will result in an extraordinary charge to fourth
    quarter earnings of approximately $1.6 million, on an after tax basis.

6.  The Directors of the Registrant declared a 3-for-2 split of the
    Registrant's common shares, effective as of December 29, 1995, and a stock
    dividend, an effective 2-for-1 stock split on August 16, 1996.  All
    presentations of shares outstanding and amounts per share have been
    restated to reflect the stock splits.

    The August 16, 1996 stock dividend was paid through the issuance of one
    share of  common stock no par value (now referred to as "Common Stock") for
    each outstanding share of its existing common stock (now referred to as
    "Class A Common Stock" - NASDQ Small Cap.: SPNIA).  The newly issued Common
    Stock has a 1/10th vote per share, compared to one vote per share for Class
    A Common Stock.

                                 Page 9 of 15
<PAGE>
    Approximately 3,075,000 shares of each class of stock was outstanding after
    the split, for a total of approximately 6,150,000 shares.

    During the nine month period ended September 30, 1996, the Registrant has
    incurred approximately $200,000 of incremental stockholders expenses
    compared to the corresponding period in 1995.  The increased expenses are
    primarily related to filing fees with the above described stock splits
    and professional fees associated with additional Securities and Exchange 
    Commission filings.

7.  In April 1996, Boyle, Fleming & Co., Inc. ("BF"), exercised Class A
    Warrants, pursuant to which the Registrant has issued to BF 187,000 shares
    of Common Stock and 187,000 shares of Class A Common Stock.  Richard J.
    Boyle and Ned N. Fleming, III, the Registrant's Chairman and Chief
    Executive Officer, and President, respectively, are shareholders, directors
    and officers of BF.

8.  On October 23, 1996, concurrent with the issuance of the $115 million notes,
    the Registrant acquired the approximately 19.9% minority interest in its 
    Brown-Bridge Industries subsidiary.  The terms of the acquisition involved a
    cash payment of approximately $2.3 million and the issuance of approximately
    9,606 shares of the Registrant's Common Stock.  In addition, as part of the 
    consideration for the shares of capital stock of Brown-Bridge, the minority 
    shareholders received the right to a contingent payment, which is 
    exercisable at any time during the period beginning October 1, 1998 and 
    ending September 30, 2000.  The value of the contingent payment is equal to 
    the percentage of the capital stock of the former Brown-Bridge entity owned 
    by such stockholder at the time of merger multiplied by 75% of the fair 
    value of the capital stock of Brown-Bridge, as determined in accordance with
    certain economic assumptions, as of the date such right is exercised, less 
    the consideration received at closing.

    Earnings per share are based on the weighted average number of common and
    common equivalent shares outstanding during each period, after giving
    effect to the 3-for-2 and 2-for-1 stock splits.  Fully diluted earnings per
    share did not differ significantly from primary earnings per share in any
    period presented.

9.  The Registrant has identified possible environmental issues related to
    portions of its land in Hamden, Connecticut.  The appropriate regulatory
    agencies have been notified, but to date no action has been required by any
    regulatory agency.

ITEM-2 - MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS                                            
- - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------

ACQUISITIONS

On October 4, 1995 Central Products Acquisition Corporation, a wholly-owned 
subsidiary of the Registrant, acquired CPC from Alco Standard Corporation, 
which manufactures and sells adhesive-backed materials, specifically 
water-activated and pressure sensitive carton sealing tapes.  (See Note 1 to 
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements).

SALES

Net sales were $62,114,000 for the three-month period ended September 30, 
1996, versus $25,070,000 for the comparable 1995 period, an increase of 
$37,044,000. The acquisition of CPC accounted for $31,702,000 of the increase 
with the balance attributable to Brown-Bridge.  For the first nine months of 
1996 net sales increased $106,642,000.  Of the increase, $95,074,000 relates 
to the acquisition of CPC and its improved marketing efforts as evidenced by 
a 9 percent increase in net sales on a pro forma basis.  The remainder of the 
increase is attributable to new business activity at Brown-Bridge, including 
the previously announced postage stamp stock contracts for the U.S. Postal 
Service's pressure-sensitive stamps.

COST OF SALES

Cost of sales for the three month period ended September 30, 1996, increased 
by $31,986,000 compared with the corresponding period in 1995.  The addition 
of CPC accounted for approximately $26,882,000 of the net increase.  The 
remainder of the increase is directly attributable to the growth in sales 
volume at Brown-Bridge.

Gross margins for the three month and nine month periods ended September 30, 
1996, improved from comparable 1995 periods.  This growth in margins was 
driven by improved manufacturing efficiencies and product mix.  However, 
these improvements were partially offset by unfavorable material cost 
variances at CPC and Brown-Bridge resulting from capacity constraints and new 
business activity.  At Brown-Bridge in particular, demand for 
pressure-sensitive products required the company to purchase certain coated 
materials from suppliers at a premium over the cost of internally 
manufacturing. These cost premiums affected margins by approximately $650,000 
and $1,700,000, respectively, for the three and nine month periods ended 
September 30, 1996.  Brown-Bridge anticipates completing the construction and 
implementation of a new flexible silicon and adhesive coater in the fourth 
quarter which will increase capacity allowing it to internally satisfy all of 
its coating requirements.  The new coater is expected to become operational 
in the fourth quarter of 1996.

The material variances at CPC, like Brown-Bridge, are a result of outsourcing 
premiums at times when internal capacity for certain product has reached its 
limit.  The timing of acrylic orders forced CPC to fulfill the orders with 
alternative outsourced product.

SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE

Selling, general and administrative expenses ("SG&A") as a percentage of net 
sales for the three month period decreased to 8.9 percent at September 30, 
1996, from 9.8 percent at September 30, 1995.  However, in relative dollars, 
the acquisition of CPC increased SG&A $2,549,000 offset by lower expenses at 
Brown-Bridge ($226,000) and slightly higher expenses at Entoleter and 
Corporate.

For the nine months ended September 30, 1996, SG&A as a percentage of net 
sales decreased to 9.0 percent from 9.6 percent in the comparable 1995 
period.  In relative dollars, like the three-month results, the acquisition 
of CPC increased SG&A $8,003,000 offset by lower expenses at Brown-Bridge 
($750,000) and slightly higher expenses at Entoleter and Corporate.

INTEREST EXPENSE

Interest expense for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 
1996 increased by $1,714,000 and $5,078,000, respectively, when compared with 
the corresponding periods for 1995.  The increase is primarily attributable 
to the additional debt incurred in the acquisition of CPC.  These increases 
were partially reduced by lower interest expense at Brown-Bridge through the 
reduction of outstanding principal when compared to 1995.

GUARANTEE FEE

As part of the acquisition of CPC, the Registrant's parent (Lynch 
Corporation) agreed to guarantee a $25,000,000 note to Alco at a rate of 0.5% 
of the principal amount per month ($125,000).  This guarantee ended on March 
31, 1996, upon the completion of the refinancing of the Alco notes.

INCOME TAXES

The 1996 and 1995 income tax provision provides for federal and state income 
taxes at an effective rate of 41%. However, the 1995 income tax provision for 
the nine months ended September 30, 1995 was 7.5% because of a one-time 
reduction of $279,000 due to the reversal  of the Registrant's valuation 
allowance related to net deferred tax assets.

FINANCIAL CONDITION

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Registrant used $590,000 in net cash for operating activities during the
nine months ended September 30, 1996, compared to $846,000 in net cash
generation in the corresponding period in 1995.  The change in cash from
operations is attributable to increased working capital demands, primarily in
inventories, due to a growing revenue base.  Earnings before interest, taxes,
depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA") for the nine months ended September 30,
1996 was $12,919,000 compared to $3,272,000 in the comparable 1995 period.  Net
working capital at September 30, 1996 was negative $2,125,000 versus $7,918,000
at December 31, 1995, a decrease of $10,043,000.  This decrease is directly
attributable to the current classification of $7.0 million subordinated note due
April 5, 1997 and borrowings against the Registrant's working capital revolver. 
Cash utilized in 

                                 Page 12 of 15
<PAGE>

investing activities were for capital improvements at Brown-Bridge, 
principally a silicon and adhesive coater, and the acquisition of a warehouse 
facility in Brighton, Colorado utilized by CPC.  In addition to investing in 
capacity increases, the cash generated through debt and working capital 
revolver borrowings were partially utilized to fund financing costs 
associated with the Registrant's October 23, 1996 issuance of $115 million of 
10-3/4 percent senior-secured debt (See Note 5 to Condensed Consolidated 
Financial Statements).

In connection with the acquisition of CPC, the Registrant and CPC issued 
subordinated notes to Alco in the amounts of $25 million and $5 million, 
respectively.  On April 5, 1996, the Registrant refinanced these notes and in 
connection with this transaction borrowed $8,500,000 from a bank.  The 
outstanding principal of this bank loan bears interest at an adjustable rate 
(approximately 10.5% at September 30, 1996) and converts into a five-year 
term loan if it is not paid in full on the December 1996 due date.  
Concurrently with the closing of the bridge loan, the Registrant paid Alco 
$7.50 million, of which $5.5 million was a principal payment on the $25 
million subordinated notes, approximately $1 million related to accrued 
interest, and $1 million was applied toward the purchase price of a warehouse 
facility.  The unpaid balance of the original $25 million subordinated notes, 
together with the balance due on the warehouse facility was restructured into 
a series of new convertible subordinated notes aggregating $20.25 million 
("Convertible Notes").  In May 1996, $6.0 million of the Convertible Notes 
were converted into common stock of the Registrant at a conversion price of 
approximately $35 per share.

The Registrant's subsidiaries have credit facilities available for future 
use, including revolving credit agreements with maximum availability of 
$45,500,000 and outstanding borrowings of $36,041,000 at September 30, 1996.  
In connection with the Registrant's $115 million debt issuance, the 
outstanding balances on the then outstanding revolver borrowings were 
extinguished.  The Registrant established a new asset-backed senior-secured 
revolving credit facility simultaneous with the private debt placement.  As 
of November 14, 1996, there is approximately $250,000 outstanding against the 
new resolver facility.  The interest rate in effect under the new revolver 
facility is 10%.  Credit availability under the lines of credit are subject 
to certain variables, such as the amount of inventory and receivables 
eligible to be included in the borrowing base.

OTHER

The extinguishment of the previously outstanding debt obligations of the 
Registrant will result in an extraordinary charge, net of federal income 
taxes, to fourth quarter earnings of approximately $1.6 million.
