                   GRAPHIC INDUSTRIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
       NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
                                 JULY 31, 1996
                                        

NOTE A--BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The financial statements included herein have been prepared by the Company,
without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and
Exchange Commission.  Certain information and footnote disclosures normally
included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and
regulations, although the Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to
make the information not misleading.  These financial statements should be read
in conjunction with the financial statements and related notes contained in the
1996 Annual Report on Form 10-K.  In the opinion of Management, the financial
statements contain all adjustments of a normal recurring nature necessary to
present fairly the financial position as of July 31, 1996 and the results of the
operations and cash flows for the three months and six months then ended.  The
results of operations for the six months ended July 31, 1996 are not necessarily
indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending January 31, 1997.


NOTE B--MARKETABLE SECURITIES

The Company determines the appropriate classification of securities at the time
of purchase and reevaluates such securities at each balance sheet date.  At July
31, 1996, all marketable securities were classified as "available for sale" and,
therefore, were carried at fair value, with the difference between cost and fair
value, net of tax, reported as a component of retained earnings.  At July 31,
1996, this difference was an unrealized loss of $842,107 net of income taxes of
$573,290.  This difference was due to the effect of changes in market interest
rates on the fair value of these securities.


NOTE C--NET INCOME (LOSS) PER COMMON SHARE

Primary earnings (loss) per share are computed based on the weighted average
number of common shares outstanding during the period.  Fully diluted earnings
(loss) per share are based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding
and, when dilutive, assumed conversion of convertible securities during the
period, after appropriate adjustments for interest and applicable income tax
effect.

NOTE D--RESTRUCTURING CHARGE
                                        
On May 14, 1996 the Company announced an agreement in principle for the sale of
its direct-mail subsidiary, Graphic Direct, Inc.-Illinois ("GDI") and the
closing of a commercial printing subsidiary, The Stein Printing Company, Inc.
("SPC").  On May 31, 1996, the sale of certain assets of GDI was concluded.  In
connection with these actions, the Company recorded in its first quarter ended
April 30, 1996, a one-time pre-tax restructuring charge of $9,000,000.  The
after-tax effect of the charge was $6,026,500 or equivalent to $0.52 per common
share.  The charge primarily covers the costs of liquidating and disposing of
certain assets, the write-off of intangible assets, and a provision for certain
expenses, including severance pay and future lease obligations.

The composition of the Company's restructuring reserves as of July 31, 1996 is
as follows:

</TABLE>


For the three months ended July 31, 1995, the combined results for GDI and SPC
were net sales of $7,924,074 and pre-tax loss of $(319,684).  For the three
months ended July 31, 1996, the combined results were net sales of $2,001,493.
For the six months ended July 31, 1995, the combined results were net sales of
$16,793,281 and pre-tax loss of $(753,698).  For the six months ended July 31,
1996 the combined results were net sales of $8,740,440.  Operating results for
the three and six month periods ended July 31, 1996 are not comparable to the
prior periods because certain amounts were provided for in the restructuring
charge.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

General.  As of September 29, 1995 the Company acquired Carpenter Reserve
- --------                                                                 
Printing Company ("CRPC"), a commercial printing company in Cleveland, Ohio.
The acquisition was financed through the issuance of 246,154 shares of the
Company's Common Stock valued at $2,500,000.  On April 18, 1996, the Company
issued an additional 37,770 shares of Common Stock valued at $383,591 as a final
adjustment to the purchase price of CRPC.

As of November 1, 1995 the Company acquired Quadras, Inc. ("Quadras"), a
creative design agency in Atlanta, Georgia.  The acquisition was financed
through the issuance of 306,612 shares of the Company's Common Stock valued at
$3,000,000.  On June 10, 1996, the Company issued an additional 6,680 shares of
Common Stock valued at $65,359 as a final adjustment to the purchase price of
Quadras.

As of December 1, 1995 Monroe Litho, Inc. ("Monroe"), Rochester, New York, a
subsidiary of the Company, acquired the Graphic Operations Department of Bausch
& Lomb, Incorporated for $2,839,000 in cash and subsequently merged the
operation into its facility.



                                      -7-

As of May 31, 1996 Mercury Printing Company, Inc. ("Mercury"), Memphis,
Tennessee, a subsidiary of the Company, acquired The Wimmer Companies, Inc., a
printer and publisher of cookbooks in Memphis, Tennessee. The acquisition was
financed through the issuance of 53,830 shares of the Company's Common Stock
valued at $583,376 and cash payments amounting to $1,042,281 to retire certain
debt obligations.

As of April 30, 1996 the Company recorded a one-time pre-tax restructuring
charge of $9,000,000.  The after-tax effect of the charge was $6,026,500.  The
charge is discussed in Note D of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial
Statements.  Excluding the one-time charge, net income for the six months ended
July 31, 1996 was $6,003,681 or $0.52 per share, an increase of 22.7% versus
last year.

NET SALES.  Net sales, for the three months ended July 31, 1996, increased
- ----------                                                                
approximately $5.1 million or 5.2% as compared to the same period last year.  Of
this increase, approximately 6.5% was attributable to the net sales of the
acquisitions discussed above in the General section.  Excluding the sales of the
acquired businesses and of the subsidiaries affected by the restructuring, net
sales of the remaining operations increased by approximately 5.8%.  Net sales,
for the six months ended July 31, 1996, increased approximately $12.2 million or
6.0% as compared to the same period last year.  Of this increase, approximately
5.7% was attributable to the net sales of the acquisitions discussed above in
the General section.  Excluding the sales of the acquired businesses and of the
subsidiaries affected by the restructuring, net sales of the remaining
operations increased by approximately 5.2% for the six months ended July 31,
1996.  In the prior year, sales were affected by the pass through to revenues of
the significant increase in paper prices.  In the current fiscal year, paper
prices have stabilized and it is therefore difficult to make complete year to
year comparisons.

COST OF SALES.  Cost of sales, as a percentage of sales, decreased 0.2%, for the
- --------------                                                                  
three months ended July 31, 1996 and 0.6% for the six months ended July 31,
1996, as compared to the same periods last year.  The improvement in both
periods resulted from the stabilization of paper prices which has allowed our
companies to more fully recover these costs in their pricing.

SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES.  Selling, general and
- ---------------------------------------------                      
administrative expenses increased 0.6%, as a percentage of sales for both the
three months and six months ended July 31, 1996, as compared to the same periods
last year.  The increase is due primarily to higher sales costs resulting from
adding new sales personnel and to a higher level of business activity.

RESTRUCTURING CHARGE.  See Note D of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated

INTEREST AND OTHER INCOME-NET.  Interest and other income-net, as a percentage
 ------------------------------                                                
of sales, increased 0.5% for the three months ended July 31, 1996 and 0.4% for
the six months ended July 31, 1996, as compared to the same periods last year.
The increases are due to an increase in investment income this year and an
increase in net income related to the sale of fixed assets other than those
relating to the restructuring, compared to a net loss on similar asset
transactions in the prior year.

INTEREST EXPENSE.  Interest expense, as a percentage of sales, decreased 0.2%
- -----------------                                                            
for the three months ended April 30, 1996 and 0.3% for the six months ended July
31, 1996, as compared to the same periods last year.  This decrease is the
result of lower borrowing costs due to the refinancing of substantially all
floating rate obligations in December 1995, partially offset by higher average
borrowings compared to the same periods last year.

INCOME TAXES.  The effective income tax rate was 40.0% for the three months
- -------------                                                              
ended July 31, 1996 and July 31, 1995.  The effective tax rate for the six
months ended July 31, 1996 was 102.3%.  The high tax rate for the six months
ended July 31, 1996 was due to the restructuring charge booked at April 30, 1996
and discussed in Note D of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial
Statements.  A portion of the restructuring charge related to the write-off of
intangible assets for which there is no tax benefit.  The effective income tax
rate without the restructuring charge was 40.0% for the six months ended July
31, 1996.  The effective tax rate for the six months ended July 31, 1995 was
40.0%.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
- -------------------------------

At July 31, 1996, the Company had approximately $83.5 million in working capital
as compared to approximately $51.4 million at July 31, 1995.  Capital
expenditures for property, plant and equipment were approximately $8.8 million
during the six months ended July 31, 1996.

The Company's capital expenditures and increase in other assets have been
financed by funds from operations, from additional borrowings and from use of
cash and cash equivalents during the first six months.  The increase in other
assets is primarily due to advance payments for several capital projects.

The Company believes that existing working capital, including a cash and
marketable securities balance of approximately $28.7 million at July 31, 1996,
funds provided from operations, undrawn bank lines and additional bank financing
will be adequate to satisfy the Company's presently anticipated needs for
working capital and capital expenditures, including possible future
acquisitions.

                              IMPACT OF INFLATION
                              -------------------

The Company has experienced increases in the costs of materials, labor,
equipment and machinery as well as other operating expenses.  Its ability to
pass on such increased costs through increased prices has been affected
differently in different time periods; however, the Company has generally been
able to mitigate cost increases by increasing its production efficiencies or by
passing on increased costs to customers.
