SPINNAKER INDUSTRIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.   Basis of Presentation

The accompanying  unaudited condensed  consolidated financial statements include
Spinnaker Industries, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Spinnaker Coating,
Inc.  ("Spinnaker  Coating"),  Entoleter,  Inc. and  Spinnaker  Electrical  Tape
Company ("Spinnaker Electrical")  (collectively the "Company").  All significant
intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

On July 30, 1999 and August 10, 1999, the Company  completed the sale of its two
industrial tape units, Spinnaker Electrical ("Industrial Tape Sale") and Central
Products  Company  ("Central  Products"),   respectively,   and  which  together
comprised  its  industrial  tape  segment,  to  Intertape  Polymer  Group,  Inc.
("Intertape").  As a result,  the  Company's  industrial  tape  segment is being
reported as a discontinued operation in the accompanying  consolidated financial
statements.

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 periods  ended June 30, 2000 are not
necessarily  indicative  of the results  that may be expected for the year ended
December 31, 2000. For further information,  refer to the consolidated financial
statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company's annual report on Form
10-K for the year ended December 31, 1999.

2.       Acquisitions

In October  1996,  the Company  acquired all of the  approximately  25% minority
interest in its Spinnaker  Coating  subsidiary held by such  subsidiary's  other
shareholders.   The  terms  of  the  acquisition  involved  a  cash  payment  of
approximately  $2.3 million and the issuance of 9,613 shares of Common Stock. As
additional  consideration for the shares of capital stock of Spinnaker  Coating,
the  minority   shareholders   received  the  right  to  a  contingent   payment
("Contingent Value Rights" or "CVRs").

On May 4, 2000,  the  Company  through  its  subsidiary,  Spinnaker  Electrical,
acquired  all of the  CVRs  held  by the  former  minority  ownership  group  of
Spinnaker Coating for $500,000 in cash. Accordingly,  the contingent payment was
recorded as an addition to goodwill during the second quarter of 2000.

3.   Inventories

Concerning   inventory   values  at  June  30,  2000  and   December  31,  1999,
substantially  all are valued  using a specific  identification  method with the
remaining  inventories  valued  using the  first-in,  first-out  method  (FIFO).

4.    Long-term debt and working capital revolver

On October 23, 1996, the Company issued $115 million aggregate  principal amount
of 10 3/4% Senior Secured Notes (the "Senior  Notes") due 2006. The Senior Notes
are  redeemable,  in whole or in part,  at the option of the Company on or after
October 15, 2001,  at redemption  prices  beginning at 105.375% of the principal
amount and declining  each year  thereafter  to 100% of the principal  amount on
October 15, 2005, plus accrued and unpaid interest. Prior to the Industrial Tape
Sale,   Spinnaker  Coating,   Central  Products  and  Entoleter   ("Guarantors")
unconditionally guaranteed the Senior Notes, jointly and severally. Terms of the
indenture  obligated  the Company to use the  proceeds  from the sale of Central
Products to permanently reduce indebtedness or invest in the Spinnaker Coating's
business.

During the second quarter of 2000, the Company,  utilizing  Restricted Proceeds,
purchased $24.1 million (par value) of the outstanding  Senior Notes on the open
market at an average price of 82.3% of par value, resulting in a pre-tax gain of
approximately $3.3 million.  For the six months ended June 30, 2000, the Company
purchased $57.5 million (par value) of the outstanding  Senior Notes on the open
market at an average  price of 83.1%,  resulting in a total pre-tax gain of $7.5
million.  The  Restricted  Proceeds  were fully  utilized  for the  Senior  Note
purchases and capital expenditures, and all obligations under the Indenture were
satisfied relating to the use of sale proceeds.


The  following  is a summary of long term debt of the Company at June 30,  2000,
and December 31, 1999:

4.       Long-term debt and working capital revolver (con't)

The Company  also  maintains  short-term  lines of credit with banks for working
capital needs at each  subsidiary.  In connection with the Industrial Tape Sale,
the Company's  revolving credit facility (the "Spinnaker  Credit  Facility") was
refinanced  and the  aggregate  facility was  decreased  from $60 million to $40
million.  Credit  availability under the Spinnaker Credit Facility is subject to
certain variables,  such as the amount of inventory and receivables  eligible to
be  included  in the  borrowing  base.  The Company is charged an unused line of
credit  fee every  month  based on an annual  rate of  0.375%.  All  outstanding
borrowings  under the  Spinnaker  Credit  Facility  bear  interest  at the prime
interest  rate plus 1.00% or LIBOR (London  Interbank  Offered Rate) plus 2.50%.
For the  three-month  and six-month  periods  ended June 30, 2000,  the weighted
average interest rate for the facility's  borrowings was approximately 9%. As of
June  30,  2000,  the  Company  carried  approximately  85% of  the  outstanding
Spinnaker Credit Facility borrowings in LIBOR instruments.  As of June 30, 2000,
the Company had outstanding  cash advances  totaling $23.4 million and available
borrowings of $9.1 million under the Spinnaker Credit Facility.

In  conjunction  with the  acquisition of the Spinnaker  Coating-Maine  business
("Coating-Maine"), the Company issued a convertible subordinated promissory note
(the  "Coating  Note") to the seller with an original  principal  amount of $7.0
million,  bearing payment-in-kind ("PIK") interest at 10% per annum. The Note is
convertible  for shares of Common  Stock on the basis of 40 shares per $1,000 of
the  outstanding  principal  amount of the Note (or $25 per  share),  subject to
adjustment as set forth below. The Note's PIK feature allowed the Company to pay
the  first  year's  interest  payment  by  issuing  an  additional  subordinated
convertible  note having  similar terms;  in the future,  interest is payable in
cash  provided the Company is not in default,  after giving pro forma effect for
the payment, of covenants under the Spinnaker Credit Facility. If the Company is
prohibited  from paying  interest due in cash,  the Company will continue to PIK
the interest owed. Principal payments were due on March 31, 1999 and 2000 if the
Company was not in default of covenants under the Spinnaker  Credit Facility and
had  availability  in excess of $15 million under the Spinnaker  Credit Facility
after giving  effect for the  payment.  The Company was  prohibited  from making
those  principal  payments  due to  insufficient  pro  forma  availability.  The
outstanding  principal  is  considered  due  on  demand,  however,  it is  still
restricted  under the conditions  described  above.  In any event,  the Note and
remaining unpaid interest will mature on January 31, 2002.

Proceeds  from the sale of Central  Products  were used to  satisfy  transaction
costs and repay  approximately  $18.2  million of the working  capital  revolver
debt.

Proceeds from the sale of Spinnaker Electrical, an unrestricted subsidiary, were
used to repay  approximately  $6.9  million  of term  debt and  working  capital
revolver  debt  collateralized  by  the  assets  of  Spinnaker  Electrical.  The
remaining  net proceeds of  approximately  $15 million are available for general
purposes,  which may  include  purchasing  additional  Senior  Notes in the open
market.  Other options  include  acquisitions,  capital  expenditures to support
remaining subsidiaries, and/or repurchase shares of the Company's Common Stock.


<PAGE>



5.   Earnings per share


As of June 30, 2000, there were outstanding options to purchase 20,000 shares of
Class A Common Stock and Common Stock for $40 per share, and outstanding options
to purchase 20,000 shares of Common Stock for $27 per share. In addition,  as of
June 30,  2000,  there were  outstanding  options to purchase  55,000  shares of
Common Stock at prices ranging  between  $9.0625 to $13.375 per share,  5,000 of
which were issued during the quarter of 2000 at a price of $9.0625 per option.

Shares related to these options were not included in the  computation of diluted
earnings  per share for the  periods  ended June 30,  2000 or 1999  because  the
effect would be antidilutive.


6.       Discontinued operations

On April 9, 1999,  the Company  entered into a definitive  agreement to sell its
Industrial  Tape  Business  to  Intertape  for  approximately  $105  million and
five-year  warrants to purchase  300,000  shares of Intertape  common stock (New
York Stock  Exchange  Symbol  "ITP") at an  exercise  price of $29.50 per share.
Accordingly,  operating  results  of  the  industrial  tape  segment  have  been
reclassified  as  discontinued  operations  in the  accompanying  statements  of
consolidated operations.

The sale of the Spinnaker  Electrical and Central Products assets closed on July
30, 1999 and August 10, 1999,  respectively.  The Company recorded pre-tax gains
from the sales of  approximately  $27 million.  The Company offset a substantial
portion  of the cash  tax  liability  by  utilizing  net  operating  loss  carry
forwards.  The net  proceeds  from the sale of Central  Products,  a  restricted
subsidiary,  were used to repurchase a total of approximately $63.9 million (par
value) of outstanding Senior Notes.

The Company has restated its prior financial statements to present the operating
results  of  the  industrial  tape  segment  as a  discontinued  operation.  The
industrial  tape segment net sales were $29.5  million and $58.8 million for the
three  months  and six  months  ended  June 30,  1999,  respectively,  and $69.5
million,  $121.8  million and $119.7 million for fiscal years ended December 31,
1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively.

General  corporate  office  expenses  related  to  finance  and   administrative
functions  including  public  company  compliance  reporting,  bank and investor
relations,   taxes  other  than  income  taxes  and  holding  company   payroll,
historically  allocated and charged to the industrial tape segment were reversed
and allocated back to continuing operations.  These expenses were not considered
to be directly attributed to discontinued operations. Expenses allocated back to
continuing  operations  totaled  $0.4  million and $0.8 million in the three and
six-month periods ended June 30, 1999.

Interest expense  attributed to the Senior Notes and related deferred  financing
has  historically  been allocated based on the pro rata share of subsidiary debt
obligations  retired with the proceeds from the issuance of the Senior Notes, to
total debt obligations retired. The Senior Note proceeds were used to extinguish
certain  outstanding  term and revolver  obligations  in October 1996.  Interest
expenses  charged to the  discontinued  industrial  tape  segment  totaled  $2.1
million and $4.2 million in the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 1999.

Interest  expense  from  continuing  operations  is subject  to certain  matters
associated  with the use of the net proceeds from the sales of CPC and Spinnaker
Electrical,  including  retirement  of senior debt or  investments  in Permitted
Businesses as defined under the Indenture.  As a result,  interest  expense,  as
presented on a historical  basis,  may not necessarily be indicative of interest
expense of continuing  operations for the three and six-month periods ended June
30, 1999.

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

Results of Continuing Operations

Three months ended June 30, 2000, compared to three months ended June 30, 1999

Net sales

     The  Company's  net sales for the  quarter  ended June 30,  2000 were $38.5
million,  compared to $39.5 million in the corresponding 1999 period. The slight
decrease in net sales for 2000 is primarily  the result of lower  volumes in dot
matrix and other  general  purpose  products,  the  effects of  outsourcing  the
manufacturing and sales of dry gum and other  conventional  product lines in the
fourth  quarter of 1999, and the timing of sales of pressure  sensitive  postage
material. This sales decline was partially offset by growth in sales of pressure
sensitive sheet products, which increased by approximately $1.0 million from the
corresponding 1999 period.

Additionally,  Entoleter  sales  declined by $.3 million from the  corresponding
1999  period  primarily  the  result  of a  decline  in  orders  for  industrial
processing  equipment.  The Company continues to explore strategic  alternatives
with  respect to Entoleter to improve  shareholder  value,  including a possible
spin-off.  There can be no assurance,  however,  that any transaction  involving
Entoleter will occur.

Gross margin

Gross  margin as a percentage  of net sales for the quarter  ended June 30, 2000
was 7.9%, compared to 8.8% in the corresponding 1999 period. In terms of dollars
and rate,  the decline in the gross margin for the 2000 period was primarily due
to increased depreciation and amortization  associated with capital expenditures
used in the  manufacturing  process,  lower product pricing and volumes, and an
increase in product development costs.

Income from operations

Income from  operations in 2000 was  approximately  $.1 million  compared to $.5
million in 1999.  Compared  to the  corresponding  1999  period,  the  Company's
operating  results  reflect  lower overall  sales,  increased  depreciation  and
amortization,  slightly offset by lower selling and administrative  costs. Also,
during the quarter ended June 30, 2000, the Company completed the closing of its
Dallas corporate office and consolidated the related  responsibilities  with its
Spinnaker  Coating Ohio operations;  the termination  costs were recorded in the
first quarter of 2000.

Interest expense

Interest  expense,  net of interest income,  for the quarter ended June 30, 2000
was approximately  $2.2 million,  which  approximated the 1999 amount.  Interest
expense is  primarily  attributed  to the  Company's  10-3/4%  Senior  Notes and
borrowings associated with the Spinnaker Credit Facility.

Income taxes

The Company's  second  quarter 2000 income tax rate for federal and state income
taxes reflects an annual effective tax rate of approximately  35% for continuing
operations.  The estimated annual effective tax rate varies from statutory rates
due to the impact of  non-deductible  permanent  tax  differences  on  estimated
annual earnings before tax and state income tax return adjustments.  The Company
has approximately $2.2 million of net operating loss carry forwards available to
offset future  taxable  income in 2000.  These net operating loss carry forwards
and net operating losses generated in the current year are anticipated to offset
a significant  portion of the extraordinary  gains realized in 2000 on the early
extinguishment of debt.


<PAGE>



Six months ended June 30, 2000, compared to six months ended June 30, 1999

Net sales

The  Company's  net sales for the six  months  ended  June 30,  2000 were  $80.3
million,  exceeding the corresponding  1999 period by approximately $.6 million.
The  increase in net sales for 2000 is  attributed  to strong  sales in pressure
sensitive sheet products, in which volumes increased  approximately 65% over the
comparable   1999  period,   and   increased   sales  volume  of  specialty  and
general-purpose roll products.  These increases were substantially offset by the
effects  of  outsourcing  the  manufacturing  and  sales  of dry gum  and  other
conventional  product lines in the fourth quarter of 1999.  Although  volumes of
pressure  sensitive  postage  material for the first six months of 2000 declined
compared to the corresponding  1999 period,  it was  substantially  offset by an
increased average selling price.

Gross margin

On a comparable  basis,  gross  margin as a percentage  of net sales for the six
months ended June 30, 2000 was 7.8%,  compared to 8.9% in the corresponding 1999
period.  Changes  in  sales  mix and  increased  depreciation  and  amortization
associated with capital  expenditures  caused the 2000 gross margin to be lower.
In  addition,  industry-wide  manufacturing  capacity  continues to drive strong
competition  in North  America  resulting  in price  erosion on  general-purpose
products as compared to the comparable 1999 period.

Severance and termination  benefits  associated with the elimination of indirect
manufacturing  positions at Spinnaker  Coating  totaled $.2 million in the first
half of 2000, all of which was included in manufacturing  burden.  In 1999, such
charges  totaled  $0.5  million,   of  which  $0.4  million  were  reflected  in
manufacturing  burden and the  balance in selling,  general  and  administrative
expense.

Income (loss) from operations

Loss from  continuing  operations  for the six months  ended  June 30,  2000 was
approximately   $.2   million,   compared  to  income  of  $.7  million  in  the
corresponding 1999 period, primarily for the reasons discussed above.

In addition to the charges recorded against gross margin (see Gross Margin), the
Company  recorded a one-time charge of $350,000 in the first quarter of 2000 for
severance and  termination  benefits that were associated with the transition of
corporate office  responsibilities  to Spinnaker  Coating and the closing of the
Dallas office.

Interest expense

Interest expense, net of interest income, for the six months ended June 30, 2000
increased  approximately  $.5 million  compared to the  corresponding  period in
1999.  The  increase is  attributed  to certain  Senior Note  interest  expense,
included in  continuing  operations,  which was  historically  allocated  to the
Industrial  Tape segment.  Subsequent to the Industrial  Tape Sale,  Senior Note
interest expense in continuing  operations  increased prior to the Company using
the Restricted Proceeds to repurchase the Senior Notes.




<PAGE>




Income taxes

The Company's  estimated  annual effective income tax rate for federal and state
income taxes is approximately 35% for continuing  operations  compared to 26% in
1999. The estimated annual effective tax rate varies from statutory rates due to
the impact of  non-deductible  permanent  tax  differences  on estimated  annual
earnings before tax.

The  Company  has about  $2.2  million  of net  operating  loss  carry  forwards
available to offset future  taxable  income in 2000.  These net  operating  loss
carry  forwards  and net  operating  losses  generated  in the current  year are
anticipated to offset a significant  portion of the extraordinary gains realized
in 2000 on the early extinguishment of debt.


FINANCIAL CONDITION

Liquidity and capital resources

LIQUIDITY.   As  of  July  21,  2000,  the  Company  has  net   availability  of
approximately $7 million under its revolving credit facility  ("Spinnaker Credit
Facility"). Additionally, the Company has approximately $15 million of cash from
the sale of the assets of  Spinnaker  Electrical,  all of which is  unrestricted
under the  Indenture  and  available  for general  purposes that may include the
repurchase of additional Senior Notes in the open market, acquisitions,  capital
expenditures to support continuing  operations,  and the repurchase of shares of
Spinnaker Common Stock.

The  Spinnaker  Credit  Facility is available to fund  acquisitions  and support
periodic  fluctuations  in  working  capital.   Credit  availability  under  the
Spinnaker Credit Facility is subject to certain variables, such as inventory and
receivables  eligible  to be  included  in the  borrowing  base.  The Company is
charged  an unused  credit  fee every  month of 0.375%  per  annum.  Outstanding
borrowings bear interest at variable rates  primarily  related to LIBOR. At June
30,  2000,  the  effective  interest  rate was  approximately  9%.  The  Company
anticipates  having sufficient  availability under the Spinnaker Credit Facility
based on its current operations to meet its interest obligations.  This facility
expires December 31, 2001.

Cash used in  operating  activities  for the six months  ended June 30, 2000 was
$5.0 million,  compared to cash provided by operating activities of $4.9 million
in the corresponding 1999 period.

Net  proceeds  from  the  sale of  Central  Products  was  available  to  prepay
indebtedness  (other  than  subordinated  debt) of the  Company,  invest  in any
business,   capital  expenditure  or  other  tangible  asset  in  the  Permitted
Businesses,  as defined in the Indenture.  Since the fourth quarter of 1999, the
Company utilized the Restricted Proceeds to purchase approximately $63.9 million
(par value) of  outstanding  Senior Notes on the open market at an average price
of 82.9%, plus accrued and unpaid interest.  The Restricted  Proceeds were fully
utilized for the Senior Note purchases and capital expenditures.

The Senior Note purchases have reduced the Senior Note outstanding borrowings to
approximately  $51.1 million,  which lowers the semi-annual  interest payment to
approximately $2.75 million.

In  connection  with  the  Coating-Maine  acquisition,   the  Company  issued  a
promissory  note ("Warren Note") to Warren in the original  principal  amount of
$7.0 million.  The Warren Note bears interest at the rate of 10%, and included a
PIK feature that allows the Company to pay the first year's interest  payment by
issuing an additional  subordinated note under similar terms as the Warren Note.
The Company may also issue such a PIK note if at a future interest  payment date
a default or event of default exists,  or would be caused by the payment of such
interest in cash, under the Spinnaker Credit Facility. Payments of principal and
interest are subject to  restrictions  contained in, and in any event are junior
and subordinate in right of payment to, the payment of indebtedness  outstanding
under the Spinnaker Credit Facility and Senior Notes. The Warren Note matures on
January 31, 2002,  however,  it can be prepaid earlier if certain  conditions or
events occur.


<PAGE>




CAPITAL RESOURCES. The Company budgeted capital expenditures of approximately $2
to $2.5 million for 2000. Capital  expenditures during the six months ended June
30,  2000  totaled  $1.1  million.  The  Company  anticipates  that it will have
sufficient cash flow from operations and availability under the Spinnaker Credit
Facility to fund its commitments for such capital expenditures in 2000.

Other

In October  1996,  the Company  acquired all of the  approximately  25% minority
interest in its Spinnaker  Coating  subsidiary held by such  subsidiary's  other
shareholders.  The terms of the acquisition involved a cash payment, issuance of
Spinnaker common stock and a right to a contingent  payment  ("Contingent  Value
Rights" or "CVRs").

On May 4, 2000,  the Company,  through  Spinnaker  Electrical,  acquired all the
Contingent Value Rights held by the former minority ownership group of Spinnaker
Coating for $500,000 in cash.  Accordingly,  the contingent payment was recorded
as an addition to goodwill during the second quarter of 2000.
