                           CARAUSTAR INDUSTRIES, INC.
              NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                 JUNE 30, 1996
                                  (Unaudited)


Note 1.   Basis of Presentation

          The financial information included herein is unaudited; however, such
          information reflects all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring
          adjustments) which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a
          fair statement of results for the interim periods.  The results of
          operations for the six months ended June 30, 1996 are not necessarily
          indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.  Certain
          amounts in the 1995 financial statements have been reclassified to
          conform with the 1996 presentation.

Note 2.   Common Stock Repurchase Plan

          During the first quarter of 1996, the Company repurchased and retired
          1,000,000 shares of its common stock pursuant to a plan authorized
          and approved by its board of directors.  These repurchases were made
          in a series of open market transactions at an aggregate cost of $20.3
          million and at prices ranging from $18.81 to $20.50 per share.  Upon
          the completion of this series of transactions, the Company's board of
          directors authorized repurchases of up to an additional 1,000,000
          shares.

Note 3.   Acquisitions

          On January 15, 1996, the Company acquired substantially all the 
          assets of Summer Paper Tube Company, a manufacturer of paper tubes
          and industrial adhesives, for approximately $22.4 million in cash. 
          In conjunction with this acquisition, the Company recorded
          approximately $13.8 million in goodwill which will be amortized over
          40 years.  The acquisition will be accounted for as a purchase and is
          not anticipated to have a material impact on the operations of the
          Company.  The Summer acquisition was primarily funded with borrowings
          under the Company's bank revolving credit facility.

Note 4.   Sale of Interest in Subsidiary

          On April 1, 1996, the Company transferred substantially all of
          the operating assets and liabilities of its wholly-owned subsidiary,
          Standard Gypsum Corporation, a producer of gypsum wallboard, to a
          newly formed limited liability company, Standard Gypsum LLC ("LLC").
          Simultaneous with the formation of LLC, the Company sold an undivided
          50 percent interest in LLC to Temple-Inland Forest Products
          Corporation ("Temple"), an unrelated third party, for $10.8 million
          in cash.  LLC will be operated as a joint venture managed by Temple.
          The Company will account for its interest in LLC under the equity
          method of accounting.  In conjunction with this transaction, the
          Company recognized a nonrecurring gain, before income taxes, of $2.4
          million, or $0.06 per share (after tax) which is reflected in the
          accompanying statements of income for the quarter and six months
          ended June 30, 1996. Additionally, from the date of the transaction
          through June 30, 1996, the Company recognized earnings of $277
          thousand for the Company's equity interest in the earnings of LLC. 
          In management's opinion, this sale will not have a material effect on
          the operations of the Company.

Note 5.   Commitments and Contingencies

          The Company is involved in certain litigation arising in the ordinary
          course of business.  In the opinion of management, the ultimate
          resolution of these matters will not have a material adverse effect
          on the Company's financial position or results of operations.

Note 6.   Subsequent Events

          On July 15, 1996, the Company entered into a partnership      
          ("Partnership")  with Tenneco Packaging Inc. ("TPI"), a wholly-owned
          subsidiary  of Tenneco, Inc. The Company contributed $114.5 million
          in cash exchange for an 80 percent interest in the Partnership. TPI
          contributed the assets and liabilities of its Rittman, Ohio and Tama,
          Iowa clay-coated recycled paperboard mills and recovered fiber
          recycling and brokerage operations located in Rittman and Cleveland,
          Ohio in exchange for $114.5 million in cash and a 20 percent
          partnership interest.  The Company's investment in the Partnership
          was funded with borrowings of $110.0 million from its revolving
          credit facility and the remainder with internally generated cash. 
          The Company will account for the acquisition of its Partnership
          interest using the purchase method of accounting.  For financial
          reporting purposes, the assets, liabilities, results of operations
          and cash flows of the Partnership will be included in the Company's
          consolidated financial statements from the date of formation, and
          TPI's interest will be included as minority interest.

                           CARAUSTAR INDUSTRIES, INC.
          MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
                           AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


The following is management's discussion and analysis of certain significant
factors which have affected the Company's financial position and operating
results during the periods included in the accompanying condensed consolidated
financial statements.

Quarters Ended June 30, 1996 and 1995

Net sales for the quarter ended June 30, 1996 increased 0.5 percent
from $139.7 million in the same period last year to $140.4 million. 
Acquisitions made after the second quarter of 1995 accounted for $16.6 million
of sales in the second quarter of 1996.  Excluding acquisitions, net sales
decreased $15.9 million, or 11.4 percent, due mainly to lower average selling
prices on paperboard and wastepaper.  Tons sold from paperboard mill production
(including sales to outside customers and transfers to the Company's converting
operations) increased 1.1 percent to 181.1 thousand tons from 179.2 thousand
tons in the second quarter of 1995.  Purchases of paperboard from outside
manufacturers (primarily gypsum facing paper for resale; tube, core and can
grades for internal conversion; and folding carton grades for internal
conversion) increased 17.2 percent to 30.0 thousand tons in the second quarter
of 1996 from 25.6 thousand tons in the same period of last year.  Overall
paperboard tonnage thus increased 3.1 percent to 211.1 thousand tons versus
204.8 thousand tons in the same period last year. Tube, core and can volume
increased 6.2 percent on a quarter-to-quarter basis; folding carton volume
increased 14.0 percent; gypsum facing paper volume increased 6.5 percent; and
other specialty volume decreased 9.0 percent. Average paperboard mill net
selling price per ton was down 11.4 percent to $389 in the second quarter of
1996 from $439 in the same period last year.  Average net selling price per ton
for tubes and cores was up 1.5 percent to $734 from $723 last year.

The Company's gross margin increased to 31.2 percent of net sales from 24.5
percent in the second quarter of 1995.  This margin increase was due primarily
to lower average wastepaper costs, offset in part by the acquisition of
additional converting facilities after the second quarter of 1995 and their
inherent lower margins as a percent of sales.  Market prices for wastepaper
continued the decline from their peak which occurred during the second quarter
of 1995.  Average wastepaper cost per ton of paperboard produced was down 70.1
percent to $58 from $194 in the second quarter of 1995.  This decrease was
partially offset by a 13.0 percent increase in all other paperboard mill
converting costs.

Operating income increased $6.6 million, or 36.3 percent, from $18.1 million to
$24.6 million in the second quarter of 1996.  Acquisitions completed after the
second quarter of 1995 accounted for $1.2 million of the increase.  The balance
of the increase was due primarily to higher margins at the Company's paperboard
mills and tube and core converting operations offset in part by lower margins
at the Company's paperstock recycling facilities.  Selling, general and
administrative expenses increased by $3.0 million in the second quarter of 1996
versus the same period last year.  Of this increase, $2.1 million was due to 
acquisitions made after the second quarter of 1995.  Interest expense increased
to $2.1 million from $1.7 million in the second quarter of 1995, due to 
interest on loans from the revolving credit facility.

Six Months Ended June 30, 1996 and 1995

Net sales for six months ended June 30, 1996 increased 5.5 percent from $270.1
million in the same period last year to $284.9 million.  Acquisitions made
after the second quarter of 1995 accounted for $33.3 million of sales in the
first half of 1996.  Excluding acquisitions completed after June 30, 1995, net
sales decreased $18.5 million, or 6.9 percent, due to lower average selling
prices combined with slightly lower volume.  Tons sold from paperboard mill
production (including sales to outside customers and transfers to the Company's
converting operations) decreased 1.0 percent to 357.4

thousand tons from 360.9 thousand tons for the first six months of 1995.
Purchases of paperboard from outside manufacturers (primarily gypsum facing
paper for resale and internal conversion; tube, core and can grades for
internal conversion; and folding carton grades for internal conversion)
decreased 6.5 percent to 55.9 thousand tons from 59.7 thousand tons in the
first half of 1995.  Overall paperboard tonnage thus decreased 1.8 percent to
413.3 thousand tons in the first six months of 1996 versus 420.7 thousand tons
in the same period last year.  Both tube, core and can volume and folding
carton volume were essentially unchanged for the first half of 1996 from 1995;
gypsum facing paper volume increased 3.6 percent; and other specialty
paperboard volume declined 10.9 percent from 1995.  Average paperboard mill net
selling price per ton was down 3.9 percent from $411 to $395 for the first six
months of 1996.  Average net selling price per ton for tubes and cores
increased 6.9 percent from $685 to $732 for the first half of 1996.

The Company's gross margin increased to 30.6 percent of net sales from 24.6
percent in the first half of 1995.  This increase was due primarily to lower
average wastepaper costs, offset in part by the acquisition of additional
converting facilities after the first half of 1995 and their inherent lower
margins as a percent of net sales.  Wastepaper costs averaged $65 per ton of
paperboard produced versus $167 for the first six months of 1995, a decrease of
61.1 percent.  This decrease was partially offset by a 13.0 percent increase in
all other paperboard mill converting costs.

Operating income increased $14.8 million, or 43.5 percent, from $34.1 million
to $48.9 million for the first six months of 1996.  Acquisitions completed
after June 30, 1995 accounted for $2.0 million of the increase.  The balance of
the increase was due to higher margins at the Company's paperboard mills and
tube and core converting operations offset in part by lower margins at the
Company's paperstock recycling facilities.  Selling, general, and
administrative expenses increased by $5.9 million in the first half of 1996
versus the same period last year.  Of this increase, $4.1 million was due to
acquisitions made after the first half of 1995.  Interest expense increased to
$4.2 million from $3.4 million in the first half of 1995, due to interest on
loans from the revolving credit facility.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

On June 30, 1996, the Company had loans of $17.0 million outstanding from its
revolving credit facility versus none on June 30, 1995.  During the first half
of 1996, the Company borrowed $35.0 million from the facility and repaid $28.0
million by June 30, 1996.  These borrowings were used to help finance the
acquisition of Summer Paper Tube and the purchase of shares under the Company's
stock repurchase program.  Other long-term debt less current maturities was
down slightly to $83.3 million on June 30, 1996 from $83.4 million a year ago.
Capital expenditures for the first half of 1996 were $16.3 million versus $12.8
million for the same period last year.  The Company anticipates that capital
expenditures will be approximately $31.6 million in 1996.  The Company also
anticipates increased working capital needs and the possible acquisition of
additional facilities.  The Company expects to meet these funding needs through
internally generated funds and borrowings under its revolving credit facility.

During the first quarter of 1996, the Company repurchased and retired 1,000,000
shares of its common stock pursuant to a plan authorized and approved by its
board of directors.  These repurchases were made in a series of open market
transactions at an aggregate cost of $20.3 million and at prices ranging from
$18.81 to $20.50 per share.  Upon the completion of this series of
transactions, the Company's board of directors authorized repurchases of up to
an additional 1,000,000 shares.  As of June 30, 1996, no additional shares had
been repurchased.

On January 15, 1996, the Company acquired substantially all the assets of Summer
Paper Tube Company ("Summer") for approximately $22.4 million in cash.  Summer
manufactures spiral-wound tubes and cores and produces adhesives for industrial
uses.  Summer has two operating facilities in Kernersville, North Carolina, and
one in Altavista, Virginia.  In conjunction with this acquisition, the Company
recorded approximately $13.8 million in goodwill which will be amortized over
40 years.

On April 1, 1996, the Company transferred substantially all the operating
assets of its wholly-owned subsidiary, Standard Gypsum Corporation, to a newly
formed limited liability company, Standard Gypsum LLC ("LLC").  Simultaneous
with

this transaction, Temple-Inland Forest Products Corporation, an unrelated third
party, paid the Company $10.8 million in cash for a 50 percent interest in the
LLC.  The business, which includes a gypsum wallboard manufacturing facility in
McQueeney, Texas, and a gypsum quarry in Fredricksburg, Texas, will be managed
by Temple-Inland.  Caraustar will continue to supply all of the gypsum
paperboard requirements.  In conjunction with this transaction, the Company
recognized a pretax, nonrecurring gain of $2.4 million, or $0.06 per share
(after tax), during the second quarter of 1996.  The Company also recognized
income of $277 thousand in the second quarter of 1996, which represents its 50
percent interest in the earnings of the LLC.

On July 15, 1996, the Company entered into a partnership ("Partnership") with
Tenneco Packaging Inc. ("TPI"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Tenneco, Inc.
The Company contributed $114.5 million in cash in exchange for an 80 percent
interest in the Partnership.  TPI contributed its Rittman, Ohio and Tama, Iowa
clay-coated recycled paperboard mills and its recovered fiber recycling and
brokerage operations in Rittman and Cleveland, Ohio in exchange for $114.5
million in cash and a 20 percent partnership interest.  The Partnership will be
managed by the Company and will continue to operate in the clay-coated recycled
paperboard and recovered fiber businesses.  The Company funded its investment
in the Partnership with borrowings of $110.0 million from its revolving credit
facility and the remainder with internally generated cash.

The Company paid cash dividends of approximately $6.0 million in the first half
of 1996, compared to $5.4 million in the first half of 1995.
