NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(IN MILLIONS, EXCEPT SHARE AND PER SHARE DATA)

NOTE 1:     GENERAL

The accounting policies followed during interim periods are in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles and are consistent with those applied
for annual periods as described in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for
the year ended December 31, 1999. Other than Balance Sheet amounts as of
December 31, 1999, all amounts contained herein are unaudited.

Reclassifications:

Certain reclassifications have been made to prior year amounts to conform to the
current year presentation.

NOTE 2:     CHANGE IN ACCOUNTING FOR INVENTORIES FROM LIFO TO FIFO

During 2000, the Company changed its method of determining the cost of inventory
for the Monarch U.S. business unit from LIFO to FIFO. The Company believes the
FIFO method results in a closer matching of costs and revenue during periods of
declining prices and it is the primary method used in the industry in which
Monarch operates. This change has been applied by retroactively restating the
accompanying consolidated financial statements. Although this change in method
did not impact the 2000 or 1999 net income, the retained earnings balances for
the periods ended June 30, 2000 and December 31, 1999 have been decreased by
$7.2 to reflect the retroactive application of the new method of valuing
inventories.

NOTE 3:     ACQUISITIONS

On May 18, 2000, the Company acquired the Bornemann & Bick ("B&B") group of
companies for approximately $54.8. The B&B companies manufacture apparel
identification products. The acquisition has been accounted for as a purchase
with assets and liabilities assumed recorded at their estimated fair values at
the date of acquisition. The $32.1 excess of the purchase price and transaction
costs over the fair value of net assets acquired was recorded as goodwill and is
being amortized over 25 years. The fair value of assets acquired and liabilities
assumed is as follows:

</TABLE>

On February 2, 1999, the Company acquired the apparel identification business of
Ferguson International PLC ("Ferguson") for approximately $20.5. The acquisition
has been accounted for as a purchase with assets and liabilities assumed
recorded at their estimated fair values at the date of acquisition. The $5.4
excess of the purchase price and transaction costs over the fair value of net
assets acquired was recorded as goodwill and is being amortized over 20 years.
The fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed is as follows:

NOTE 12:    BUSINESS SEGMENTS

   In June 1997, SFAS No. 131, "Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and
Related Information," was issued effective for fiscal years ending after
December 15, 1998.

   The Company operated the following business segments: Apparel Identification,
Labeling Solutions and Thermal Transfer Ribbons. Inter-segment sales prices are
based on cost plus a mark-up to allow the selling segment to make a reasonable
profit. The Company evaluates performance on operating income of its business
segments before corporate expenses, amortization of goodwill, non-recurring
charges, interest, income taxes and extraordinary items.

   The Company's Apparel Identification operations design, develop, market and
manufacture products and services specifically to the apparel and textile
industries, including white goods. A significant portion of such products is
delivered to apparel manufacturers located in Asia and Mexico which products are
sold in the United States. Apparel Identification products include Fabric label
systems and Bar code systems.

Fabric label systems products include supplies printed in the company's
factories as well as fabric and printers used for in-plant label printing.
Fabric labels are attached early in the garment manufacturing process and must
withstand all production processes and remain legible through washing and dry
cleaning by the end user. Such labels normally provide consumer information such
as country of origin, size, fabric content and care instructions.

Bar code systems, consisting of electronic printer and related supplies and
services used by customers to print data on labels and tags in order to provide
accurate product, inventory and point of sale information for integration with
sophisticated data systems. These labels and tags are attached to completed
apparel items by manufacturers and retailers to identify and promote their
products, allow automated data collection and provide brand identification.

   The Company's Labeling Solutions operations market and distribute (1)
electronic bar code printers, which are used in a wide range of retail and
industrial applications including inventory management and distribution systems
and (2) hand-held mechanical labeling devices that print pressure-sensitive
(i.e., adhesive-backed) price and other identification labels and affix them
onto merchandise for retailers. In addition, the Company manufactures and
markets supplies used in both its mechanical labelers and bar code printers and
provides comprehensive service to its installed base of machines.

   Thermal transfer ribbons are used in bar code printers to print single-color
and multi-color tags and labels for use in manufacturing and factory automation
systems, shipping and distributions systems, retail price tag, packaging and
medical applications. The Company sold 92.5% of IIMAK, its Thermal Transfer
Ribbons business, on March 9, 2000 (see Note 4).

The following table shows the financial information of the Company's business
segments.

NOTE 13:    RESTRUCTURING  AND  OTHER SPECIAL CHARGES

In the first quarter 1999, the Company adopted a plan to streamline its U.S.
business segments. During the six months ended June 30, 1999 the Company
recorded $5.0 of restructuring and other special charges. Included in the total
charge is severance of $3.3 and $1.1 of costs associated with the consolidation
of certain facilities. Substantially all these costs had been paid as of June
30, 1999. The Apparel Identification business segment consolidated its woven and
printed label operations, which resulted in the elimination of approximately 20
managerial and administrative personnel. The Labeling Solutions business segment
reduced headcount by approximately 50 salaried positions.

NOTE 14: ACCOUNTING FOR DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES

At March 31, 1999, the Company had interest rate hedge agreements with notional
value of $80. The fair value of those agreements, based on estimates provided by
financial institutions, was a loss of $0.6 at June 30, 1999. There were no
interest rate derivatives in effect at June 30, 2000 or December 31, 1999.

In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 133, Accounting for Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities. The statement establishes accounting and
reporting standards requiring that every derivative instrument (including
certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts) be recorded in the
balance sheet as either an asset or liability measured at its fair value. The
statement requires that changes in the derivative's fair value be recognized
currently in earnings unless specific hedge accounting criteria are met. SFAS
No. 133 is effective for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2000.

Although  the Company has not yet quantified the impact of adopting SFAS No.
133 on its financial statements and has not determined the timing or method
of its adoption of SFAS No. 133,  the company anticipates that implementation
of SFAS No. 133 would not have a material impact on the Company's results of
operations.

THREE AND SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2000 COMPARED WITH THE THREE AND SIX
MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1999

Sales were up slightly to $167.7 and $327.9 for the three and six months ended
June 30, 2000 compared with the three and six months ended June 30, 1999. Sales
from Apparel Identification grew 19% to $107.4 for the three months ended June
30, 2000 and 18% to $194.6 for the six months ended June 30, 2000. Sales from
Labeling Solutions grew 5% to $60.3 for the three months ended June 30, 2000
compared with June 30, 1999 and 2% to $119.5 for the six months ended June 30,
2000. Sales growth was most significant in Asia and in Mexico. On May 18, 2000
the Company acquired the Bornemann & Bick ("B&B") group of companies, with
operations in Germany, Hong Kong, China, Turkey, Poland, India and Spain (see
Note 3 of Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements). B&B contributed $9.6
in sales for the months of May and June 2000. The Thermal Transfer Ribbons
segment was sold in March 2000 (see Note 4 of Notes to the Consolidated
Financial Statements).

Cost of sales for the three and six months ended June 30, 2000 increased to
$103.0 and $202.1 compared with $102.3 and $198.3 for the three and six months
ended June 30, 1999. As a percent of sales, such costs increased slightly to
61.4% and 61.7% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2000 compared with
61.0% and 61.6% for three and six months end June 30,1999.

Gross profit was $64.7 for the three months ended June 30, 2000 compared with
$65.3 for the three months ended June 30, 1999. The gross profit margin was
38.6% for the three months ended June 30, 2000 compared with 39.0% for the three
months ended June 30, 1999. During the six months ended June 30, 2000 gross
profit increased to $125.8 compared with $123.5 for the six months ended June
30, 1999. The gross profit margin was 38.3% for the six months ended June 30,
2000 compared with 38.4% for the six months ended June 30, 1999. During the
three and six months ended June 30, 2000 the gross profit was impacted by $2.5
due to the recording of the B&B inventories acquired at fair value. Excluding
this impact the gross profit for the three and six months ended June 30, 2000
would have been 40% and 39%.

<PAGE>   13
Selling, general and administrative expense ("SG&A") was $46.6 and $91.1 for the
three and six months ended June 30, 2000, compared with $44.1 and $88.5 for the
three and six months ended June 30, 1999. As a percent of sales, SG&A was 27.8%
for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2000 compared with 26.3% and
27.5% for the three and six months ended June 30, 1999.

In the first quarter of 1999 the Company adopted a plan to streamline its U.S.
business segments. During the six months ended June 30, 1999, the Company
recorded $5.0 of restructuring and other special charges. Included in the total
charge are severance costs of $3.3 and $1.1 associated with the consolidation of
certain facilities. Substantially all these costs had been paid as of June 30,
1999. The Apparel Identification business segment consolidated its woven and
printed label operations, which resulted in the elimination of approximately 20
managerial and administrative personnel. The Labeling Solutions business segment
reduced headcount by approximately 50 salaried positions.

Operating income was $16.6 and $31.9 for the three and six months ended June 30,
2000 compared with $18.0 and $27.0 for the three and six months ended June 30,
1999. The operating margins were 9.9% and 9.7% in the three and six months ended
June 30, 2000 compared with 10.7% and 8.3% in the three and six months ended
June 30, 1999.

On March 9, 2000 the Company sold 92.5% of International Imaging Materials,
Inc., its thermal transfer ribbons business, for a total consideration of
$127.5, which included $120.0 in cash and $7.5 of IIMAK preferred stock. The
sale resulted in a gain of $50.3 ($40.3 net of taxes).

Interest expense, net, decreased to $2.0 and $4.9 for the three and six months
ended June 30, 2000 from $3.8 and $7.5 in the three and six months ended June
30, 1999. The decrease was the result of reduced variable rate borrowings under
the revolving credit facility and interest income on the proceeds from the sale
of IIMAK.

Income before taxes increased to $14.6 and $77.3 (8.7% and 23.6% of sales) for
the three and six months ended June 30, 2000 compared with $14.2 and $19.5 (8.4%
and 6.0% of sales) for the three and six months ended June 30, 1999.

The effective income tax rate was 33% and 24% for the three and six months ended
June 30, 2000 compared with 35% for both the three and six months ended June 30,
1999. Excluding the net gain on the sale of IIMAK in the amount of $40.3 the
effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2000, would have been 33%.

Net income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2000 was $9.8 and $58.4
(5.8% and 17.8% of sales) compared with $9.2 and $12.6 (5.4% and 3.9% of sales)
for the three and six months ended June 30, 1999.

<PAGE>   14
Cash provided by operating activities continues to be the Company's primary
source of funds to finance operating needs and internal growth opportunities.
The net cash provided by operating activities was $25.7 for the six months ended
June 30, 2000, compared with $28.7 in 1999.

<PAGE>   15
Depreciation and amortization was $15.9 for the six months ended June 30, 2000
compared with $18.1 for the six months ended June 30, 1999.

INVESTING ACTIVITIES

During the first half of 2000 capital expenditures were $11.6 compared with
$12.5 in 1999. All new capital projects are carefully analyzed and, other than
projects for employee safety and environmental improvement, are required to make
a positive contribution on a net present value basis, generating an advantageous
internal rate of return on invested capital. The Company currently anticipates
capital expenditures of approximately $29 for the year ending December 31, 2000.

On May 18, 2000, the Company acquired the Bornemann & Bick ("B&B") group of
companies for approximately $54.8. The B&B companies manufacture apparel
identification products. The acquisition has been accounted for as a purchase
with assets and liabilities assumed recorded at their estimated fair values at
the date of acquisition. The $32.1 excess of the purchase price and transaction
cost over the fair value of net assets acquired was recorded as goodwill and is
being amortized over 25 years.

On March 9, 2000 the Company sold 92.5% of International Imaging Materials,
Inc., its thermal transfer ribbons business, for a total consideration of
$127.5, which included $120.0 in cash and $7.5 of IIMAK preferred stock. On
February 2, 1999, the Company acquired the apparel identification business of
Ferguson International PLC ("Ferguson") for approximately $20.5. The acquisition
has been accounted for as a purchase with assets and liabilities assumed
recorded at their estimated fair values at the date of acquisition. The $5.4
excess of the purchase price and transaction costs over the fair value of net
assets acquired was recorded as goodwill and is being amortized over 20 years.

The Company intends to continue its growth, in part by acquisitions of other
complementary or related businesses, and believes that further acquisitions
would be of important strategic value.

Total debt decreased to $169.0 at June 30, 2000, from $208.7 at December 31,
1999, due to repayments of revolving debt with a portion of the proceeds from
the divestiture of IIMAK. At June 30, 2000, total debt as a percent of total
capital was 35.2% compared with 42.5% at December 31, 1999.

On March 12, 1999, the Company entered into an agreement with a bank for an
uncommitted facility permitting the Company to borrow up to $50 at negotiated
interest rates for defined periods on an unsecured basis. The agreement requires
the Company to have availability under its committed revolving credit agreement
equal to the amount borrowed under this facility.

CAUTIONARY STATEMENT PURSUANT TO "SAFE HARBOR" PROVISIONS OF THE PRIVATE
SECURITIES LITIGATION REFORM ACT OF 1995.

Except for historical information, the Company's reports to the Securities and
Exchange Commission on Form 10-K and Form 10-Q and periodic press releases, as
well as other public documents and statements, contain "forward-looking
statements" within the meaning of the federal securities laws. Forward-looking
statements are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual
results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by the statements,
regarding, among others:

         -        rate of migration of garment manufacturing industry moving
                  from the United States and Western Europe

         -        worldwide economic and other business conditions that could
                  affect demand for the Company's products in the United States
                  or international markets

         -        the mix of products sold and the profit margins thereon

statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date hereof or to
reflect the occurrences of unanticipated events.

ITEM 3: QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURE ABOUT MARKET RISK

The Company experiences market risk relative to interest rates. A 10% change in
interest rates affecting the Company's floating rate debt instruments would have
an insignificant impact on the Company's pretax earnings and cash flows over the
next fiscal year. Such a move in interest rates would have no effect on the fair
value of the Company's floating rate debt instruments.
