accordance with Securities Exchange Act of 1934 Release No. 9083 although not 
required by footnote 3  paragraph 14 of  APB Opinion No. 15  because it results
in dilution of less than 3%. Earnings loss applicable to common shares are the
same as in the calculation assuming no dilution.

REVIEW OF OPERATIONS
PAPER, PAPERBOARD AND PULP

[PHOTO -- SEE EDGAR APPPENDIX]

Operating results for the paper, paperboard and pulp group were lower than
those of last year. The principal cause of the reduction was lower selling
prices for market pulp which continued to deteriorate throughout most of the
year. Paperboard average selling prices were somewhat less than last year due
partially to the mix of business. In addition, the Company curtailed production
in these product lines for completion of various capital projects.

RIEGELWOOD OPERATION

The Riegelwood, NC pulp and paperboard mill produced 530,000 tons of market
pulp and 310,000 tons of bleached paperboard, in 1993, despite the loss of
production of approximately 19,000 tons of market pulp and 3,000 tons of
bleached paperboard in the third quarter resulting from downtime taken in
connection with the modernization of the mill.
   A substantial portion of the modernization of the mill was completed during
the year. The total cost of the project is expected to be $190 million. It
includes the rebuild of the No. 18 paperboard machine and the installation of
new winders, rollwrapping equipment and refiners. The completion of the project
is scheduled for mid-1994 and will result in improved quality to better serve
our various customers.

AUGUSTA OPERATION

Bleached paperboard production at the Augusta, GA mill in 1993 was 615,000
tons, an increase over last year's production and a record for the mill. In
addition, the mill produced 26,000 tons of market pulp, slightly below the
prior year.
   All of the major modernizations and renovations were completed at the
Augusta mill in 1992. It is among one of the most efficient and highest quality
producers of bleached paperboard in the world.

SERVICE DISTRIBUTION CENTERS

[PHOTO -- SEE EDGAR APPENDIX]

The service distribution centers of the Company consist of five sheeting plants
and one extrusion plant, all located near our markets.
   During the year, the Company acquired a sheeting plant in Wharfedale,
England. This operation enables the Company to export rolls of paperboard from
the United States for sheeting at the Wharfedale plant, and delivery to
customers both in the United Kingdom and on the Continent.
   The distribution centers processed more than 257,000 tons of bleached
paperboard during the year, an increase over prior years. It is expected that
the tonnage processed through the distribution centers will continue to
increase and provide the Company with an important tool in servicing our
customers.

INVERURIE OPERATION

[PHOTO -- SEE EDGAR APPENDIX]

The Company's uncoated free-sheet paper mill in Inverurie, Scotland had record
production in 1993 producing more than 180,000 metric tons of paper compared to
136,000 metric tons last year.
   Operating income for 1993 was adversely affected by continued low selling
prices. The market and selling prices began to improve toward year-end and have
further strengthened in the early months of 1994.
   The capital expenditures made at the mill through 1993 have substantially
increased productivity and reduced production costs. As the European economies
improve, operating earnings will increase.
   Construction of a new warehouse, in excess of 100,000 sq. ft., was started
during the year and will be completed in mid-1994, further reducing costs.

SPRAGUE OPERATION

The Company's recycled paperboard mill in Sprague, CT produced a record 179,000
tons during the year, an increase from the record high of 178,000 tons last
year. The Sprague mill continues to supply recycled paperboard to the Company's
folding carton plants, but the majority of its products are sold to the open
market. Operating income for the year was slightly ahead of last year,
reflecting improved efficiencies and reduced costs. An eight mile natural gas

pipeline was completed in 1993 giving the mill the option of using either
natural gas or oil in its boiler depending on which is more cost beneficial.
   The mill uses about 185,000 tons of various grades of wastepaper per year,
which is its primary raw material.

WOOD PRODUCTS
LUMBER PLANTS

[PHOTO -- SEE EDGAR APPENDIX]

Lumber continued to be in short supply in 1993, resulting principally from the
curtailment of logging in the Pacific Northwest and reasonably strong housing
starts. Operating income for our lumber plants was substantially higher than
last year as lumber prices escalated rapidly during the year.
   The Company's five lumber plants produced 588.7 million board feet of lumber
in 1993 slightly above last year's record production.
   Lumber prices are expected to continue to escalate as the economy recovers.
With continued low mortgage rates, housing starts should increase, putting
further upward pressure on lumber selling prices. The Company's lumber plants
are modern, efficient, and low cost and are expected to continue to contribute
to the profitability of the Company.

WOODLANDS

The Company owns 568,000 acres of timberlands and leases another 125,000 acres
of timberlands, with purchase options. The acreage is located in North
Carolina, South Carolina and Georgia and is



[WOOD PRODUCTS CHART -- SEE EDGAR APPENDIX]

generally in close proximity to our pulp and paperboard mills at Riegelwood, NC
and Augusta, GA and our lumber plants.
   The Woodlands operation, in addition to managing the Company's timberlands,
also procures all of the wood needs of the lumber plants and pulp and
paperboard mills. Approximately 20% of the Company's softwood needs come from
the Company's own timberlands, the balance and substantially all its hardwood
needs are purchased by the Woodlands group from outside sources.

CONVERTING OPERATIONS
CUP OPERATIONS

Operating results from our cup operations were below last year and reflect a
further reduction in selling prices of this product line.
   A cost reduction program was implemented to reduce costs and consolidate
various operations of the business. The initial stages of the program include
the consolidation of functions to the corporate office, overall reduction in
personnel and the construction of a new distribution center adjacent to the
Shelbyville, IL plant. The cost reduction program, which will be completed by
the end of 1995, is on schedule and savings are beginning to be realized.




[CONVERTING OPERATIONS CHART -- SEE EDGAR APPENDIX]

<PAGE>   6
   
   1993 production was 9% above last year. Working with the Company's packaging
group, the cup operations now provide paperboard trays in addition to cups to a
number of customers. The cup plants use approximately 100,000 tons of bleached
paperboard annually from the Company's mills.
   An improvement in earnings is expected in 1994 as the cost reduction plan
continues and the economy improves.

PACKAGING OPERATIONS

[PHOTO -- SEE EDGAR APPENDIX]

At our Packaging Operations, the Company manufactures printed folding cartons
for a variety of consumer products. Operating income in 1993 was below that of
1992, reflecting once again, the weak economic conditions which have prevailed
for the last several years. The Packaging group operates four plants, each
serving different market segments. The largest plant is in Wilmington, NC and
has four gravure presses; the other plants have offset and flexographic
printing equipment.
   The plants consume more than 75,000 tons of paperboard each year, 80% of
which is produced at the Company's own mills.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF OPERATIONS



RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

OVERVIEW

   
Results for fiscal years 1993 and 1991 include 52 weeks while fiscal year 1992
includes 53 weeks. The effect of the inclusion of 53 weeks of the Company's
operations in fiscal year 1992 is not deemed material to the Company's financial
position and results of operations.
   Results for the fiscal year 1993 were negatively impacted by weak economic 
and market conditions which persisted throughout the year. Net sales were 
$1,386.4 million in 1993, decreasing 5% from 1992 and 3% from 1991. Income 
before cumulative effect of accounting change was $6.4 million, a 92% decline 
from both 1992 and 1991. Net income for 1993 includes a charge of $18.9 million 
for nonhedged financial instrument transactions. Net income for 1993 also 
includes  a non-cash charge of $9.5 million resulting from a change in the 
Federal statutory tax rate from 34% to 35%. This charge includes the 
cumulative effect of the recalculation of the deferred tax liability under 
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 109, "Accounting for 
Income Taxes". Net income of $91.6 million for fiscal year 1992 includes a 
non-cash gain of $9.0 million from the cumulative effect of accounting change 
related to the adoption of SFAS No. 109.
    

PAPER, PAPERBOARD AND PULP

The paper, paperboard and pulp segment manufactures bleached and recycled
paperboard, hardwood and softwood market pulp and uncoated free-sheet paper.
The Company operates one recycled paperboard mill, two bleached paperboard and
pulp mills, one uncoated free-sheet paper mill, five sheeting and distribution
centers and one extrusion coating plant.
   Net sales for this segment declined 12% compared to fiscal year 1992.
Paperboard sales declined approximately 6% compared to the prior year
reflecting a reduction in shipments along with a decline in average selling
prices. Paperboard accounted for 72% and 67% of the segment's sales for 1993
and 1992, respectively. Market pulp sales declined 38% from last year
reflecting a 30% decline in average selling prices and a reduction in
shipments. Shipments of this product to the export market declined 11% compared
to the prior year reflecting the continuation of poor economic conditions
throughout Europe. Market pulp accounted for 15% and 21% of the segment's sales
in 1993 and 1992, respectively.  Improvement in demand, during 1993, caused a
3% increase in sales of uncoated free-sheet paper over the prior year. Paper
sales accounted for 13% and 12% of the segment's sales in 1993 and 1992,
respectively.
   Operating profits for this segment declined 55% compared to 1992. The
decline in operating profits reflects reduced average selling prices for market
pulp and bleached paperboard, partially offset by increased selling prices of
recycled paperboard. Demand for these products remained strong throughout the
year with shipments of all products, except uncoated free-sheet paper,
declining only slightly from the prior year.
   The Augusta paperboard and pulp mill operated efficiently during the year
attaining record production levels on two of its machines. In previous years,
the mill underwent a major capital expansion program to increase production
capacity and improve quality. Since the start-up in early 1992, the upgraded
machines have been operating efficiently and have been achieving higher
production levels.

   
   The Riegelwood paperboard and pulp mill also operated efficiently during
1993 but was negatively impacted by lower average selling prices for market
pulp. Weak economic conditions along with high worldwide market pulp inventory
levels have caused a 30% decline, compared to 1992, in the average selling
price of market pulp. At year-end selling prices, this product is unprofitable
and cannot return to profitability until selling prices are restored to
adequate levels. Prices improved slightly at the end of the fourth quarter and
further improvement is anticipated in 1994. The Company anticipates market pulp
prices to return to profitable levels in the near future. The results for the 
mill were also impacted by lower shipments and lower average selling prices for 
bleached paperboard.  This decline in average selling prices was generally 
caused by a change in product mix.
    

   The Sprague recycled paperboard mill had an excellent year setting an
overall production record producing 179,200 tons of recycled paperboard in
1993. Operating profits improved 19% over the prior year primarily due to
improved operating efficiencies and increased average selling prices. In 1993,
the mill completed a natural gas pipeline which enabled the substitution of
lower priced natural gas for oil and propane used during the manufacturing
process.
   The Inverurie uncoated free-sheet paper mill showed an improvement in both
sales and operating profits over 1992. The mill set an overall production
record mainly due to the completion, in 1992, of a capital expansion program
which significantly increased production capacity.  Demand for uncoated
free-sheet paper strengthened during the year with shipments 37% above the
prior year. Average selling prices declined compared to last year due to poor
economic conditions throughout Europe, a change in product mix and an increase
in industry capacity. In early 1994, a price increase was implemented for this
product and further price increases are anticipated as the economy improves.
   Net sales for this segment were 6% higher in 1992 than in 1991. A decrease
in uncoated free-sheet paper sales partially offset increases in both
paperboard and market pulp sales. The primary factor contributing to the
increased sales was an increase in shipments of all products. The increase in
sales was partially offset by decreases in the average selling prices of
bleached paperboard, mainly caused by a change in product mix, and of uncoated
free-sheet paper, caused by weak economic conditions in Europe. Average selling
prices of market pulp improved slightly in 1992 compared to 1991.

   Operating profits for this segment declined 4% in 1992 compared to 1991.
This decline was mainly attributable to lower average selling prices for all
product lines generally caused by weak economic conditions, extremely
competitive market conditions and changes in product mix.  The Company's mills
all operated efficiently during 1992 with the Riegelwood and Inverurie mills
setting production records. During 1992, capital programs were successfully
completed at the Inverurie and Augusta mills while other programs were begun at
the Sprague and Riegelwood mills.

WOOD PRODUCTS

The wood products segment is involved in the manufacture of dimensional lumber
and land management activities. The Company operates five lumber plants and
owns or leases approximately 693,000 acres of timberlands.
   Net sales for this segment increased 28% compared to fiscal year 1992.
Average selling prices of dimensional lumber reached record levels during the
year and ended 1993 approximately 31% above last year. Demand remained strong
during the year with shipments slightly below the 1992 level.
   Operating profits more than doubled for this segment in fiscal year 1993
compared to 1992. Market conditions for lumber were favorable during the year
reflecting improved housing starts and a reduced supply of lumber. The
completion of various modernization programs at some of the lumber plants
improved operating efficiencies, positively impacting operating profits for the
year.
   Net sales in 1992 increased 34% compared to fiscal year 1991 due to
increased shipments and average selling prices for lumber. Shipments of lumber
reached 582.2 million board feet compared to 513.5 million board feet in 1991.
Average selling prices increased 18% in 1992 compared to 1991.
   Operating profits in 1992 were substantially higher than 1991. Strong demand
for lumber along with improved average selling prices had a favorable impact on
the profitability of this segment. In 1992, the Company completed various
modernization programs at the lumber plants which increased production
efficiencies and positively impacted earnings.

CONVERTING OPERATIONS

The converting operations segment manufactures paper and plastic cups and
specialty packaging products. The company operates six cup plants and four
folding carton plants.
   Net sales for this segment declined slightly compared to the prior year. The
decrease reflects a 15% decline in sales of packaging products partially offset
by a 4% increase in sales of paper and plastic cups. Demand for paper and
plastic cups improved throughout the year with shipments 9% higher than the
prior year. The increase in shipments was partially offset by a decline in
average selling prices along with a change in product mix. Paper and plastic
cups accounted for 70% and 65% of this segment's sales in 1993 and 1992,
respectively.
   Operating profits declined 49% for this segment in 1993 compared to 1992.
The primary factors contributing to these lower earnings were reduced volume
and a change in product mix from the Company's packaging operations. Results
for the cup operations were also below the prior year due to lower average
selling prices, along with a change in product mix partially offset by an
increase in volume. The current year's results for the cup operations include a
charge of $1.0 million associated with the restructuring of these operations.
As part of the restructuring, the Company has implemented various cost
reduction programs which, combined with recent capital expenditures, are
expected to enhance manufacturing and distribution efficiencies. These programs
are expected to have a positive impact on operating profits as general economic
conditions improve.
   A decrease in net sales of 17% in 1992 compared to 1991 reflects lower sales
of all products in this segment. The majority of the decline was attributable
to a 14% decrease in the sale of paper and plastic cups. This business was
significantly impacted by the weak economy and industry overcapacity which had
a negative impact on average selling prices of paper and plastic cups. Net
sales of packaging products decreased in 1992 due to the divestiture of folding
carton plants in 1991.
   Operating profits declined significantly in 1992 compared to 1991 mainly due
to the erosion of average selling prices of cups caused by the weak economy.
The Company's packaging operations performed well during 1992 benefiting from
reduced costs associated with the reorganization of the operations due to the
divestiture of four plants in 1991.

OTHER ITEMS

   
The Company entered into several nonhedged off-balance-sheet financial
instrument transactions in 1993, 1992 and 1991. The cost of transacting these
instruments along with gains or losses to mark these instruments to market was
a pre-tax loss in fiscal year 1993 of approximately $31.9 million and pre-tax
gains of approximately $5.3 million and $5.0 million for fiscal years 1992 and
1991, respectively. The Company recorded a  gain in 1991 of approximately $4.7
million from the divestiture of folding  carton plants. The items above are
included in Other - net in the Consolidated  Statement of Income. 
    

INCOME TAXES

   
The Federal statutory tax rate changed in 1993 from 34% to 35%. The 1993
provision for income taxes includes $9.2 million for the cumulative effect of
the recalculation of the deferred tax liability under SFAS No. 109, "Accounting
for Income Taxes", which bases future taxes on the current statutory rate. The
Company had adopted this Statement in 1992 and recorded a gain of $9.0 million
from the cumulative effect of an accounting change in the Consolidated
Statement of Income. The adoption of SFAS No. 109 resulted in higher
depreciation expense for the fiscal years 1993 and 1992. The Company's overall
effective tax rate was 75.7%, 39.1% and 42.9% in 1993, 1992 and 1991,
respectively. The higher effective tax rate for 1993 compared to 1992 and 1991
reflects the change in the Federal statutory rate.
    

OTHER ACCOUNTING MATTERS

The Company adopted, in fiscal year 1993, SFAS No. 106, "Employers' Accounting
for Postretirement Benefits Other than Pensions", electing to amortize the
transition obligation over twenty years. This Statement requires the Company to
accrue the estimated cost of retiree benefit payments during the years the
employee provides services. The Company previously expensed the cost of these
benefits as claims were incurred.  The incremental pre-tax cost for 1993, as a
result of adopting SFAS No. 106, including amortization, service and interest
cost was approximately $2.8 million.
   Certain postemployment benefits are provided to former or inactive
employees, their beneficiaries and covered dependents after employment but
before retirement. In November 1992, SFAS No. 112, "Employers' Accounting for
Postemployment Benefits", was issued and must be adopted for fiscal years
beginning after December 15, 1993. The impact of adopting this Statement in
fiscal year 1993 would not have been material to the Company's financial
position and results of operations.

CAPITAL RESOURCES AND LIQUIDITY

   
Despite lower net income in 1993, the Company's cash flows from operations
remained strong. Cash generated by operations in 1993 was $231.0 million
compared to $223.8 million in 1992 and $269.2 million in 1991. In 1991, the
Company entered into an agreement which allows for the sale of a fractional
interest in a defined pool of trade accounts receivable. During 1993, the
maximum allowable amount of receivables to be sold, initially $75 million, was
increased to $88 million. Proceeds from the sold receivables of $13 million and
$75 million in 1993 and 1991, respectively are reported as operating cash
flows. 
    

   Cash flows used for investing activities were primarily associated with
capital investment programs. Capital expenditures, including capitalized
interest, totaled $161.2 million in 1993, $149.1 million in 1992 and $227.4
million in 1991. The majority of the capital spending in 1993 related to a
modernization program at the Company's Riegelwood mill which will improve
quality and ensure the Company's leadership position in the lightweight
bleached bristol market. In 1993, the Company also began a capital spending
program to construct a new warehouse for its cup operations in order to improve
distribution efficiencies. A major portion of the spending in 1992 was related
to ongoing capital investment programs for the paper, paperboard and pulp
segment, including some spending on the Riegelwood mill program mentioned
above. Spending in 1991 was primarily associated with the completion of capital
expansion programs at the Company's Augusta and Inverurie mills which related
to increasing production capacity and improving quality. Capital expenditures
for 1994, including capitalized interest, are expected to be consistent with
the 1993 level.

   
   Cash flows used for financing activities were associated with the payment of
dividends and the repayment of long-term debt. Cash paid for dividends was
$48.6 million, $48.4 million and $48.6 million in 1993, 1992 and 1991,
respectively. The Company's cash dividend was maintained at a quarterly rate of
$.25 per common share for the fourth straight year. During 1993, the Company
reduced total debt by $28.8 million. The ratio of total debt to total
capitalization was 54.2%, 53.5% and 54.8% in 1993, 1992 and 1991, respectively.
    

   During 1993, the Company entered into two revolving credit agreements. The
first agreement provides for borrowings of up to $75 million and expires in
September 1994 and the second agreement provides for borrowings of up to $225
million and expires in September 1996. Both of these agreements may be extended
until 1998 upon mutual consent of all parties. These agreements replaced the
existing $200 million revolving credit and term loan agreement.

                                               Federal Paper Board Company, Inc.


   
   Debt repayments in 1994 for outstanding borrowings are projected to be $56.1
million. The Company believes cash flows from operations supplemented by the
revolving credit agreement and $75 million remaining under a previously filed
shelf registration statement will be sufficient to meet the repayment
requirements and fund capital spending programs.
    

   
   During 1993, the Company entered into $50 million and terminated $175
million of interest rate swap agreements in order to effectively lower interest
costs. The Company's outstanding interest rate swap agreements effectively
converted $175 million and $300 million of fixed rate debt to variable rate
debt at January 1, 1994 and January 2, 1993, respectively. These agreements
have various expiration dates through 1997.
    

   
    

   
   The Company had various nonhedged interest rate swap agreements outstanding
at January 1, 1994 of which two were complex in nature. One interest rate swap
agreement outstanding is based on a notional amount of $175 million in which
the Company receives LIBOR and pays LIBOR in arrears, a predetermined spread
plus a leveraged coupon based on various interest rate spreads. The estimated
fair value of this interest rate swap agreement at January 1, 1994 was a loss
of $20.6 million.               
    
   
   The second interest rate swap agreement outstanding is based on a notional
amount of $25 million in which the Company receives a fixed rate of 10% and
pays LIBOR, a predetermined spread plus a leveraged coupon based on various
interest rate spreads. The estimated fair value of this interest rate swap
agreement at January 1, 1994 was a loss of $3.8 million.
    
   
   The Company manages certain portions of its exposure to foreign currency
fluctuations through a variety of nonhedged off-balance-sheet financial
instruments including foreign currency option and forward contracts. The
Company's market risk under these agreements is subject to currency rate
changes of the British pound sterling, the German mark and the Japanese yen
along with changes in U.S. and German interest rates. At January 1, 1994, the
Company had outstanding foreign currency call option contracts with a notional
amount of 5.0 million U.S. dollars and 20.0 million British pounds, foreign
currency put option contracts with a notional amount of 40.0 million U.S.
dollars, 8.5 million German marks and 10.0 million British pounds and forward
foreign exchange contracts with a notional amount of 5.0 million U.S. dollars.
    

   
Certain loan agreements the Company is party to contain various restrictive
covenants.  At January 1, 1994, as restated, the Company was unable to comply
with the cash flow coverage test in the revolving credit agreements.  The
Company has obtained waivers from the syndicate of banks related to this item
of default through June 18, 1994, at which time the Company was in compliance 
with all restrictive covenants.
    

ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS

   
The Company operates in an industry subject to extensive environmental
regulations. In order to meet the standards established by the various federal,
state and local environmental laws and regulations, the Company has made
substantial capital and operating expenditures. Environmental capital
expenditures totaled $17.2 million in 1993, $32.2 million in 1992 and $48.0
million in 1991. Capital expenditures for environmental purposes are estimated
to be approximately $25 million and $70 million for fiscal years 1994 and 1995,
respectively. However, spending on these environmental projects may be
undertaken in years beyond 1995. Additional amounts to be incurred for
environmental purposes in future years will depend on new laws and regulations, 
other changes in legal requirements, changes in environmental control
technology and changes in the economic environment. In the latter part of
1993, the United States Environmental Protection Agency issued regulations
which could result in significant expenditures being incurred in our industry
in future years. The Company is not yet in a position to establish a meaningful
estimate of such costs or predict what potential financial impact changes to
other existing regulations would have on the Company. All companies in our
industry are subject to the same or similar environmental laws and regulations
and the Company does not believe that compliance with applicable laws and
regulations will materially effect its competitive position. 
    

The Company is involved in environmental remediation activities at 11 sites
where it has been named a potentially responsible party under the Comprehensive
Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act and by certain state
agencies. The total costs to the Company to remediate these sites cannot be
predicted with certainty due to the amount of time necessary to complete the
cleanups, the extent to which contributions will be available from other
parties or the availability of insurance coverage. However, based upon its
experience with such matters, the Company does not believe that its expected
share of such known actual and potential cleanup costs will have a materially
adverse effect on its financial position and results of operations.

   The Company has accruals for probable and estimable environmental costs of
$4.7 million and $3.8 million, at January 1, 1994 and January 2, 1993,
respectively.

EFFECTS OF INFLATION

The moderate level of inflation during the past few years has not had a
material impact on the Company's operating results. Prices and volumes for the
Company's products are more closely related to supply and demand factors in
specific markets and by exchange rate fluctuations than by inflationary
factors.

FUTURE OUTLOOK

The Company anticipates an improvement in the general economic and market
conditions affecting its business in 1994. Expected increases in demand for its
major products should allow for overall higher average selling prices in 1994.
In addition, ongoing Company-wide cost reduction programs, along with recent
capital expenditures, are expected to enhance manufacturing and distribution
efficiencies throughout the Company.  Therefore, with improved demand and
pricing of its major product lines and overall lower costs, 1994 results should
be improved over 1993.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Restated)



NOTE 1        SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES 

Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include all subsidiary companies.
Significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated.

Fiscal Year
The Company's fiscal year is comprised of 52 or 53 weeks, ending on the
Saturday nearest December 31st. The fiscal year 1992 includes 53 weeks while
the other years presented include 52 weeks.

Inventories
Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or market. Inventory costs include
all direct manufacturing costs and applied overhead.  Finished goods, work in
process and raw materials for the Bleached Paperboard, Pulp, Wood Products and
Converting Operations are determined on the last-in, first-out (LIFO) basis.
Inventories for the Recycled Paperboard and Paper facilities are determined on
the first-in, first-out (FIFO) basis. Supply inventories are determined on an
average cost basis.

Property, Plant and Equipment
Property, plant and equipment is recorded at cost. Depreciation is computed on
the straight-line method based on the estimated useful lives of related assets
except for the Augusta, GA paperboard mill, where the units-of-production
method is used. Depreciable lives are 20 to 33 years for buildings and 3 to 30
years for machinery and equipment. Cost of timber harvested is computed at unit
cost rates calculated annually based on the estimated volume of recoverable
timber and the related costs.

   In the first quarter of 1993 and the fourth quarter of 1992, the Company
changed the estimated useful lives used to calculate depreciation for certain
productive assets to properly reflect the expected use of these assets. The
change in estimated useful lives made in 1993 resulted in an increase of $4.1
million on income before taxes, $2.5 million on income after taxes and $.06 on
earnings per fully diluted common share. The change in estimated useful lives
made in 1992 resulted in an increase of $2.4 million on income before taxes,
$1.4 million on income after taxes and $.03 on earnings per fully diluted
common share.

   Costs of the construction of certain long-term assets include capitalized
interest which is amortized over the estimated useful life of the related
asset. The Company capitalized interest costs of $6.1 million in 1993, $11.3
million in 1992 and $18.8 million in 1991.

   
Intangibles and Other Assets
The excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net assets of
acquired companies is goodwill and is amortized over 40 years. Other identified
intangible assets are amortized, if applicable, on a straight-line basis over
their estimated useful lives which range from 3 to 40 years. Accumulated
amortization of goodwill and other intangibles amounted to $20.5 million, $16.2
million and $11.3 million in 1993, 1992 and 1991, respectively.
    

   The Company incurs certain start-up costs during the process of bringing a
project into commercial production. Such start-up costs on major capital
projects are capitalized and amortized on a straight-line basis over five
years. Unamortized start-up costs, included in other assets, were $17.1
million, $22.5 million and $18.5 million in 1993, 1992 and 1991, respectively.
   Management periodically evaluates the recoverability of long-term assets,
including goodwill, based upon current and anticipated net income and
undiscounted future cash flows.

   
Financial Instruments
The Company enters into hedged interest rate swap agreements which involve the
exchange of fixed and floating rate interest payments periodically over the
life of the agreement without the exchange of the underlying principal amounts.
The differential to be paid or received is accrued as interest rates change and
recognized over the life of the agreements as an adjustment to interest
expense.
    
   
   The Company enters into nonhedged interest rate swap agreements along with
hedged and nonhedged foreign exchange instruments. Gains and losses 
associated with nonhedged transactions are recorded currently in income. If
the contract hedges a firm commitment, gains and losses are deferred and
included as a component of the related commitment.
    

Income Taxes
Effective December 29, 1991, the Company adopted Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes", and has
reported the cumulative effect of this change in the method of accounting for
income taxes in the Consolidated Statement of Income for fiscal year 1992.
Under SFAS No. 109, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the
future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial
statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their
respective tax bases. In adopting SFAS No. 109, the Company adjusted the
carrying amounts of previous acquisitions accounted for using the purchase
method of accounting.
   Under APB Opinion 11, which was applied in 1991 and prior years, provisions
were made for deferred income taxes resulting from differences between the time
transactions were recorded for financial statement purposes and the time they
affected taxable income.

Earnings Per Common Share
Earnings per common share assuming no dilution is based on the weighted average
number of shares and common equivalent shares outstanding during the year.
Outstanding stock options are common equivalent shares but are not included in
the computation since the dilutive effect is not material.

   
   Earnings per common share assuming full dilution is based on the weighted
average number of common shares outstanding during the year, including the
dilutive effects of stock options outstanding and the conversion of the
Company's preferred stocks.

Foreign Currency Translation
Adjustments resulting from the translation of foreign subsidiaries' financial
statements into U.S. dollars are included as cumulative foreign translation
adjustments in shareholders' equity. The net cumulative foreign currency
translation adjustments included in other capital were decreases of $18.6
million and $18.3 million at January 1, 1994  and January 2, 1993,
respectively.

Revenue Recognition
The Company generally recognizes revenues when goods are shipped.

Reclassifications
Certain amounts in prior year financial statements have been reclassified to
conform with the current year presentation.

NOTE 2        SUPPLEMENTAL BALANCE SHEET INFORMATION

Accounts and Notes Receivable
In 1991, the Company entered into an agreement which allows for the sale,
without recourse, of a fractional interest in a defined pool of trade accounts
receivable. The maximum allowable amount of receivables to be sold, initially
$75 million, was increased to $88 million in 1993. The amount available at any
measurement date varies based upon the level of eligible receivables. Under
this agreement, $88 million and $75 million were sold as of January 1, 1994 and
January 2, 1993, respectively. These sales are reflected as reductions of
accounts receivable in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheet and as
operating cash flows in the accompanying Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows.
The costs of this program, which were $2.8 million in 1993, $3.4 million in
1992 and $1.9 million in 1991, are based upon the Company's debt ratings and
the purchasers' level of investment and borrowing costs and are charged to
selling and administrative expenses in the accompanying Consolidated Statement
of Income.
   During 1993, the Company settled a $20.5 million note receivable it had
received in 1991 when three folding carton plants were sold to a group of
former employees. In the settlement of this receivable, the Company received
cash and preferred stock. The preferred stock is included in Other Assets in
the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheet.

Inventories
The Company used the LIFO method of valuing its inventories for approximately
69% of total inventories at January 1, 1994 and 67% of total inventories at
January 2, 1993.
   A reduction of certain inventory quantities resulted in the liquidation of
certain LIFO inventory layers.  As a result of these liquidations, net income
and earnings per common share assuming full dilution for the fiscal years 1993,
1992 and 1991 were higher by $1.7 million or $.04, $.4 million or $.01 and $2.3
million or $.05, respectively.

Financial Instruments
The estimated fair values of the Company's financial instruments at January 1,
1994 and January 2, 1993 were as follows:

</TABLE>
    

The estimated fair value amounts have been determined by the Company, using
available market information and appropriate valuation methodologies as of
January 1, 1994 and January 2, 1993. Although management is not aware of any
factors that would significantly affect the estimated fair value amounts, such
amounts have not been comprehensively revalued for purposes of these financial
statements since that date, and current estimates of fair value may differ
significantly from amounts presented herein. The following are the methods used
for each class of financial instrument for which it is practicable to estimate
the value.

Accounts and notes receivable: The carrying amounts of these items are a
reasonable estimate of their fair value. 

Notes receivable non-current: The estimated fair value of notes receivable 
to the Company is based on market prices for the same or similar 
instruments with similar maturities.

Long-term debt: The estimated fair value of the Company's long-term debt is
based on the quoted market prices for the same or similar issues or on the
current rates offered to the Company for debt with the same remaining
maturities.

Interest rate swap agreements: The estimated fair value of interest rate swap
agreements is obtained from dealer quotes.

   
The Company had various nonhedged interest rate swap agreements outstanding at
January 1, 1994 of which two were complex in nature. One interest rate swap
agreement outstanding is based on a notional amount of $175 million in which
the Company receives LIBOR and pays LIBOR in arrears, a predetermined spread
plus a leveraged coupon based on various interest rate spreads. The estimated
fair value of this interest rate swap agreement at January 1, 1994 was a loss
of $20.6 million.               
    

   
The second interest rate swap agreement outstanding is based on a notional
amount of $25 million in which the Company receives a fixed rate of 10% and
pays LIBOR, a predetermined spread plus a leveraged coupon based on various
interest rate spreads. The estimated fair value of this interest rate swap
agreement at January 1, 1994 was a loss of $3.8 million.
    

   
The Company manages certain portions of its exposure to foreign
currency fluctuations through a variety of financial instruments with
off-balance-sheet market risk including foreign currency option and foreign
currency forward contracts. The risk of loss to the Company in the event of
non-performance by any party under these agreements is not significant. The
Company's market risk under these agreements is subject to currency rate
differentials. At January 1, 1994, the Company had outstanding foreign currency
call option contracts with a notional amount of 5.0 million U.S. dollars and
20.0 million British pounds, foreign currency put option contracts with a
notional amount of 40.0 million U.S. dollars, 8.5 million German marks, 10.0    
million British pounds and forward foreign exchange contracts with a
notional amount of 5.0 million U.S. dollars. At January 2, 1993, the Company had
outstanding foreign currency call option contracts with a notional amount of
$185.0 million, foreign currency put option contracts with a notional amount
of $20.0 million and forward foreign exchange contracts with a notional amount
of $10.0 million. The estimated fair values of the nonhedged foreign currency
contracts outstanding at January 1, 1994 and January 2, 1993 were immaterial.

=======================================================================
</TABLE>

The aggregate maturities of long-term debt for the five years subsequent to
January 1, 1994 are as follows: 1994 - $56,148; 1995 - $71,954; 1996 - $95,538;
1997 - $32,912; 1998 - $27,591.
   The Company has two revolving credit agreements with a syndicate of banks.
The first agreement provides for borrowings of up to $75 million and expires in
1994 and the second agreement provides for borrowings of up to $225 million and
expires in 1996. Both of these agreements may be extended, by mutual consent of
all parties, until 1998. The agreements require the payment of a facility fee
and the $225 million agreement requires the payment of a commitment fee based
on the unused portion of the line of credit. These agreements became effective
in the third quarter of 1993 and replaced the Company's $200 million revolving
credit and term loan agreement.
   The agreements referenced above provide for borrowing at variable interest
rates based on the prime rate or, at the Company's option, on the London
Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) or the average secondary market offering rate
for certificates of deposit in New York City. The rate can be reduced or
increased depending on the Company's ratio of debt to total capitalization and
cash flow coverage. The weighted average interest rate for 1993 and 1992 was
3.9% and 4.9%, respectively. The weighted average interest rate for 1992
reflects the impact of interest rate swap agreements, which expired in March of
1992, on a portion of the outstanding loans. The Company classified $45 million
and $75 million of other notes as long-term debt at January 1, 1994 and January
2, 1993, respectively. The Company has the ability and intent under the
revolving credit agreements to renew these obligations through 1996.

   
   During 1993, the Company executed and terminated various interest rate swap
agreements which reduced the interest costs on certain fixed rate debt. At
January 1, 1994, the Company had hedged interest rate swap agreements 
outstanding with a notional principal amount of $175 million which converted 
fixed rate debt with a weighted average interest rate of 8.66% to variable 
rates, based on LIBOR plus a predetermined spread, with a weighted average 
interest rate of 7.1%.  These swap agreements terminate on various dates 
through the year 1997. The Company is exposed to credit loss in the event of 
nonperformance by the other party to the interest rate swap agreements. 
However, the Company does not anticipate nonperformance by the counterparty.
    

   The industrial revenue bonds had a weighted average interest rate of 4.8%
and 6.6% in 1993 and 1992, respectively.

   
   Certain loan agreements contain various restrictive covenants, including a
restriction on the amount of net earnings available for dividends and the
purchases of Company stock. Unrestricted retained earnings under the most
restrictive provision amounted to $94.7 million at January 1, 1994. At
January 1, 1994, as restated, the Company was unable to comply with the cash
flow coverage test in the revolving credit agreements.  The Company has
obtained waivers from the syndicate of banks related to this item of default
through June 18, 1994, at which time the Company was in compliance with all
restrictive covenants.
    

NOTE 4        LEASES & OTHER COMMITMENTS

Leases
The Company leases certain buildings and machinery and equipment under various
operating leases.  Rental expense for operating leases was $19.1 million, $20.6
million and $23.0 million in 1993, 1992, and 1991, respectively. Minimum lease
payments for operating leases existing as of January 1, 1994 are as follows:
$15.4 million in 1994; $13.0 million in 1995; $10.3 million in 1996; $9.0
million in 1997; $7.5 million in 1998 and $15.4 million in years after 1998.

Environmental
Environmental expenditures that relate to current operations are expensed or
capitalized as appropriate. Expenditures that relate to an existing condition
caused by past operations, and which do not contribute to current or future
revenue generation, are expensed.  These amounts are recorded when
environmental assessments and/or remedial efforts are probable, and the cost
can be reasonably estimated. The timing of these accruals generally coincides
with completion of a feasibility study or the Company's commitment to a formal
action plan. Amounts included in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheet
for estimated environmental costs, at January 1, 1994 and January 2, 1993, were
$4.7 million and $3.8 million, respectively, which in the opinion of management
are sufficient to cover probable and estimable environmental costs.

NOTE 5        INCOME TAXES

As discussed in Note 1, the Company adopted SFAS No. 109 as of December 29,
1991 and the cumulative effect of this change in accounting for income taxes is
reported separately in the Consolidated Statement of Income for the fiscal year
1992. As a result of applying SFAS No. 109, pre-tax income for the fiscal year
ended January 2, 1993 was reduced by $6.3 million representing the effect of
adjustments for prior purchase business combinations.
   The components of income before income taxes and cumulative effect of
accounting change and the provision for income taxes included in the

The Company has capital loss and net operating loss carryforwards for domestic
income tax purposes which are available to offset future taxable income through
1998 and 2008, respectively. At January 1, 1994, the capital loss and net
operating loss carryforwards were $2.8 million and $54.5 million, respectively.
The Company also has alternative minimum tax credit carryforwards of
approximately $59.8 million at January 1, 1994, which are available to reduce
future federal regular income taxes over an indefinite period.
    

   In addition, the Company acquired a net operating loss carryforward and an
advance corporation tax for United Kingdom tax purposes, with no expirations,
as a result of an acquisition. Using the exchange rate at January 1, 1994, the
net operating loss carryforward was approximately $32.2 million and the advance
corporation tax was $1.1 million. The foreign deferred provision for fiscal
year 1991 reflects a charge for income taxes which will not result in a cash
payment because of the utilization of these credit carryforwards. This item
resulted in a reduction to property, plant and equipment and did not impact the
deferred income tax liability.
   Deferred taxes are not provided on undistributed earnings of foreign
subsidiaries, which at January 1, 1994 were $9.9 million.  These earnings have
been and will continue to be reinvested. It is not practicable to estimate the
tax liability that might arise if these earnings were remitted.

NOTE 6        EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS

Pension Plans
The Company maintains non-contributory, defined benefit pension plans covering
substantially all employees. Benefits for salaried employees are based on
salary and years of service, while hourly plans are based on a fixed benefit
rate and years of service. The Company's funding policy is to contribute at
least the minimum amount required by applicable regulations. The assets of the
plans are principally invested in equity and debt securities.
   The net periodic pension cost and actuarial assumptions of the Company's
plans were as follows:

The Company has recorded liabilities that are equal to the unfunded accumulated
benefit obligations of its plans in fiscal 1993 and 1992. This has resulted in
recognition of an intangible asset of $14.5 million and a net-of-tax reduction
to other capital of $24.1 million as of January 1, 1994. The intangible asset
and net-of-tax reduction to other capital as of January 2, 1993 was $15.0

</TABLE>

All of the Company's retirement plans have accumulated benefits in excess of
plan assets.

Other Postretirement Plans
The Company provides certain health care and life insurance benefits to
eligible retired employees. The Company continues to fund benefit costs on a
pay-as-you-go basis, with retirees paying a portion of the costs.  Salaried
participants generally become eligible for retiree health care benefits after
reaching age 55 with 15 years of service.  Benefits, eligibility and
cost-sharing provisions for hourly employees vary by location. Most hourly
employees are not eligible for retiree health care benefits and others are
eligible for retiree health care benefits similar to those provided to salaried
employees. Generally, Company provided health care benefits terminate when
covered individuals become eligible for Medicare benefits or reach age 65,
whichever occurs first. Certain retired employees of businesses acquired by the
Company are covered under other health care plans that differ from current
plans in coverage, plan design and retiree contributions.
   Effective January 3, 1993, the Company adopted SFAS No. 106 "Employers'
Accounting for Postretirement Benefits Other than Pensions". SFAS No. 106
requires the Company to accrue the estimated cost of retiree benefit payments
during the years the employee provides services. The Company previously
expensed the cost of these benefits as claims were incurred. SFAS No. 106
allows recognition of the cumulative effect of the liability in the year of the
adoption or the amortization of the obligation over a period of up to twenty
years. The Company has elected to amortize this obligation of $27.2 million
over a period of twenty years. As a result of applying SFAS No. 106, pre-tax
income for the fiscal year ended January 1, 1994 was reduced by approximately
$2.8 million.
   The net periodic postretirement benefit cost of the Company's plans were as

The discount rate used in determining the accumulated postretirement benefit
obligation was 7.5%. The assumed health care cost trend rate used in measuring
the accumulated postretirement benefit obligation was 13% in 1993, decreasing
gradually each successive year until it reaches 5% in 2004, after which it
remains constant.

                                               Federal Paper Board Company, Inc.



   If the health care cost trend rates were increased by 1%, the accumulated
postretirement benefit obligation as of January 1, 1994 would have increased by
11%. The effect of this change on the aggregate of the service and interest
cost components of net periodic postretirement benefit cost for 1993 would be
an increase of 12%.

Savings and Stock Ownership Plans
The Company has two savings and stock ownership plans in effect which cover all
domestic salaried and non-union hourly employees.  These plans were established
to enhance the existing retirement plans for all eligible employees.
Participants may contribute up to 15% of their annual compensation on a
deferred or a non-deferred tax basis, or both. The Company match, which is paid
in Company stock and is based on employee contributions of up to 6% of their
annual compensation, was decreased from 50% to 25% during 1993.  The Company
match is fully vested after an employee has completed three years of service
while employee contributions are fully vested when they are contributed.

Postemployment Plans
The Company provides certain postemployment benefits to former or inactive
employees, their beneficiaries and covered dependents after employment but
before retirement. In November 1992, SFAS No. 112, "Employers' Accounting for
Postemployment Benefits" was issued, which establishes new standards of
accounting for postemployment benefits and requires adoption for fiscal years
beginning after December 15, 1993. The impact of adopting this Statement, for
the fiscal year 1993, would not have been material to the Company's financial
position and results of operations.

The Company has stock option plans, which were approved by the shareholders,
which authorize the granting of options to officers and certain key employees
to purchase the Company's common stock at a price equal to the market price on
the date of grant. Options become exercisable in annual installments of 25% of
the amount granted per optionee one year after the date of grant and expire
five years after the date of grant. Employees may exchange Company stock as
payment when exercising their options, and such stock used as payment becomes
treasury stock. Also, the Company may issue stock from treasury when employees
exercise these options.
   The Company's 1982 stock option plan expired in 1993 and the 1989 and 1992
stock option plans each authorized the granting of 1.5 million shares of common
stock. The combined activity of all plans is presented below:

NOTE 9        INDUSTRY SEGMENT INFORMATION

Information about the Company's operations in different industry segments for
fiscal years 1993, 1992, and 1991 is included on pages 22 and 23 of this Annual
Report.

   
NOTE 10       RESTATEMENT OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
    

   
The accompanying consolidated financial statements for fiscal year 1993
have been restated to account for certain interest rate swap agreements at
market value.  The Company, in agreement with its outside auditors, previously
accounted for these interest rate swap agreements based on settlement
accounting but has determined that this was not an appropriate accounting
method.  When the Company entered into these interest rate swap agreements the
intent was to change the interest rate characteristics of specific fixed rate
debt obligations of the Company.  However, it has been determined because of
the risk and leverage factors inherent in these interest  rate swap agreements,
the swap transactions did not effectively offset the rate characteristics of
the underlying debt obligations.  As a result, these instruments are required
to be marked to market.  The effects of the restatement on the Company's
financial results are as follows (in thousands, except per share amounts)

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT

To the Shareholders and Board of Directors
of Federal Paper Board Company, Inc.:

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Federal Paper
Board Company, Inc. and its subsidiary companies as of January 1, 1994 and
January 2, 1993, and the related consolidated statements of income,
shareholders' equity and cash flows for each of the three fiscal years in the
period ended January 1, 1994. These financial statements are the responsibility
of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on
these financial statements based on our audits.
   We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of
material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit
also includes assessing the accounting principles used and the significant
estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial
statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis
for our opinion.
    In our opinion, such consolidated financial statements present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of Federal Paper Board Company,
Inc. and its subsidiary companies at January 1, 1994 and January 2, 1993, and
the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three
fiscal years in the period ended January 1, 1994 in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles.
   As discussed in Notes 5 and 6 to the financial statements, the Company
changed its method of accounting for income taxes, effective December 29, 1991,
and its method of accounting for postretirement benefits other than pensions,
effective January 3, 1993.

   
   As discussed in Note 10, the accompanying financial statements for the fiscal
year ended January 1, 1994 have been restated to record certain interest rate 
swap agreements at market value.
