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
U.S. 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, with the exception of the change in
accounting principle described in Note 2. Other than Balance Sheet amounts as of
December 31, 1999, all other 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 March 31, 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: ACQUISITION
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.
During the applicable periods, 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 manufacture products for
and provide services specifically to the apparel and textile industries. A
significant portion of the Company's products are delivered to apparel
manufacturers located in Asia and Mexico whose products are sold in the United
States. Fabric label systems include electronic printers and related supplies
used for in-plant label printing. Bar code systems, consisting of electronic
printers and related supplies and services, are used by customers to print data
on labels and tags to provide accurate product, inventory and point of sale
information for integration with sophisticated data systems. Labels and tags are
attached to apparel by manufacturers and retailers to identify and promote their
products, allow automated data collection and provide brand identification and
consumer information such as country of origin, size, fabric content and care
instructions. 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. Tags are attached when the garment is
complete and are primarily for point of sale promotion. Additionally, the
Company's products include labels and tags for sheets, towels, pillowcases and
other white goods.

<PAGE> 9
The Company's Labeling Solutions operations market and distribute
electronic bar code printers used in a wide range of retail and industrial
applications. Applications include inventory management and distribution
systems, 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, and supplies used in both its mechanical
labelers and bar code printers. This segment also provides comprehensive service
to its installed base of machines.
The Company's 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 set forth below 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 three months ended March 31, 1999, the Company
recorded $3.3 of restructuring and other special charges. Included in the total
charge is severance of $2.1 and $0.4 of costs associated with the consolidation
of certain facilities. Substantially all these costs had been paid as of March
31, 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.

<PAGE> 10
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 $1.1 at March 31, 1999. There were no
interest rate derivatives in effect at March 31, 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.

FIRST QUARTER 2000 COMPARED WITH 1999
Sales increased 4% to $160.2 for the three months ended March 31, 2000 compared
with the three months ended March 31, 1999. Sales from Apparel Identification
grew 16% while sales from Labeling Solutions were flat for the three months
ended March 31, 2000 compared with March 31, 1999. Sales growth was most
significant in Asia and in Mexico. 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 months ended March 31, 2000 increased to $99.1
compared with $96.0 for the three months ended March 31, 1999. As a percent of
sales, such costs decreased to 61.9% for March 31, 2000 compared with 62.3% for
March 31,1999.
Gross profit increased to $61.1 for the three months ended March 31, 2000
compared with $58.2 for the three months ended March 31, 1999. The gross profit
margin was 38.1% for the three months ended March 31, 2000 compared with 37.7%
for the three months ended March 31, 1999. Among other factors, the improvement
resulted from a turn around at the Company's apparel identification operation in
the United Kingdom following the restructuring and integration of the Ferguson
acquisition during 1999.
Selling, general and administrative expense ("SG&A") was $44.5 for the three
months ended March 31, 2000, compared with $44.4 for the three months ended
March 31, 1999. As a percent of sales, SG&A was 27.8% for March 31,2000 compared
with 28.8% for March 31, 1999.
In the first quarter of 1999 the Company adopted a plan to streamline its U.S.
business segments. During the three months ended March 31, 1999, the Company
recorded $3.3 of restructuring and other special charges. Included in the total
charge is severance costs of $2.1 and $0.4 associated with the consolidation of
certain facilities. Substantially all these costs had been paid as of March 31,
1999. The Apparel Identification business segment consolidated its woven and
printed label operations, which resulted in the elimination of approximately 20

reduced headcount by approximately 50 salaried positions.

<PAGE> 12
Operating income increased to $15.3 for the three months ended March 31, 2000
compared with $9.0 for the three months ended March 31, 1999. The operating
margin increased from 5.8% in the three months ended March 31, 1999 to 9.5% in
the three months ended March 31, 2000.
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 $2.9 for the three months ended March 31,
2000 from $3.7 in three months ended March 31,1999. 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 $62.7 (39.1% of sales) for the three months
ended March 31, 2000 as compared with $5.3 (3.4% of sales) for the three months
ended March 31, 1999.
The effective income tax rate was 22% for the three months ended March 31, 2000
compared with 36% for the three months ended March 31, 1999. Excluding taxes
provided for the gain on the sale of IIMAK in the amount of $10.0, the effective
tax rate is 33%.
Net income for the three months ended March 31, 2000 was $48.6 (30.3% of sales)
compared with $3.4 (2.2% of sales) for the three months ended March 31, 1999.

OPERATING ACTIVITIES
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 $6.6 for the three months
ended March 31, 2000, compared with $4.7 in 1999.
Depreciation and amortization was $9.2 for the three months ended March 31, 2000
compared with $9.0 for the three months ended March 31, 1999.
INVESTING ACTIVITIES
During the first quarter of 2000 capital expenditures were $5.1 compared with
$7.1 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 $27 for the year ending December 31, 2000.
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.

<PAGE> 13
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 $163.4 at March 31, 2000, from $208.7 at December 31,

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
- order cancellation or reduced bookings by customers or
distributors
- competitive product offerings and pricing actions
- the availability and pricing of key raw materials
- productivity improvements in manufacturing
Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on forward-looking
statements. The Company undertakes no obligation to republish or revise
forward-looking 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.

Re: Form 10-Q Report for the quarter ended March 31, 2000.
Gentlemen:
This letter is written to meet the requirements of Regulation S-K calling for a
letter from a registrant's independent accountants whenever there has been a
change in accounting principle or practice.
We have been informed that, as of January 1, 2000, the Company changed its
method of determining the cost of inventory for the Monarch U.S. business unit
from LIFO (Last In First Out) to FIFO (First In First Out). According to the
management of the Company, this change results in a closer matching of costs and
revenue as costs have been declining and it is the primary method used in the
industry in which Monarch operates.
A complete coordinated set of financial and reporting standards for determining
the preferability of accounting principles among acceptable alternative
principles has not been established by the accounting profession. Thus, we
cannot make an objective determination of whether the change in accounting
described in the preceding paragraph is to a preferable method. However, we have
reviewed the pertinent factors, including those related to financial reporting,
in this particular case on a subjective basis, and our opinion stated below is
based on our determination made in this manner.
We are of the opinion that the Company's change in method of accounting is to an
acceptable alternative method of accounting, which, based upon the reasons
stated for the change and our discussions with you, is also preferable under the
circumstances in this particular case. In arriving at this opinion, we have
relied on the business judgment and business planning of your management.
We have not audited the application of this change to the financial statements
of any period. Further, we have not examined and do not express any opinion with
respect to your financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2000.
Very truly yours,
Arthur Andersen LLP
