  The Merger
  ---------- 
       On  October  30,  1995,  the  Company,  then known as RCL  Capital  Corp.
  ("RCL"),  consummated the merger (the "Merger")  pursuant to the Agreement and
  Plan of Merger  dated as of May 8, 1995 (the "Merger  Agreement")  between RCL
  and Disc Graphics,  Inc., a New York corporation ("Old Disc"). Pursuant to the
  Merger  Agreement,  (i) Old Disc merged with and into RCL, (ii) RCL's name was
  changed to Disc  Graphics,  Inc., and (iii) all of the  outstanding  shares of
  Class A Common Stock, no par value, and Class B Common Stock, no par value, of
  Old Disc were  converted  into (a) an aggregate of 3,100,000  shares of Common
  Stock  of the  Company  and (b) and an  aggregate  of  1,000,000  warrants  to
  purchase an  aggregate  of  1,000,000  shares of Common  Stock of the Company,
  one-quarter  of which shall be exercised  at a price of each of $7.00,  $8.00,
  $9.00 and $10.00.

  Potential Future Issuance of  Shares of Common Stock by the Company
  -------------------------------------------------------------------
       Pursuant to the Merger Agreement as modified by a certain Agreement dated
  as of October  30,  1995 by and among  certain  stockholders  of RCL (the "RCL
  Stockholders")  and  the  former  shareholders  of Old  Disc  (the  "Old  Disc
  Shareholders")  and RCL, if the Old Disc Shareholders  subsequently  determine
  from  time  to time  until  up to five  years  after  October  30,  1995  (the
  "Effective  Time") that, as of the Effective Time, either (i) RCL did not have
  cash or  marketable  securities  with a fair market value as of the  Effective
  Time of not less than  $6,000,000  (the actual  amount of cash and  marketable
  securities  held by RCL as of the Effective  Time, the "First Amount") or (ii)
  the cash and  marketable  securities of RCL did not exceed all  liabilities of
  RCL of any kind or nature (whether fixed or contingent,  matured or unmatured)
  (including,  without  limitation,  all liabilities based upon,  relating to or
  arising from any actions taken by or on behalf of RCL or the failure of RCL to
  take any actions prior to the Effective Time or any facts or

  circumstances  existing  prior to the Effective  Time,  which in any such case
  results in any  liabilities,  obligations  or claims against the Company after
  the   Effective   Time   (all   such   liabilities   collectively,   the  "RCL
  Liabilities")),  by not less than  $6,000,000  (the actual  amount of cash and
  marketable  securities  held  by  RCL  as of  the  Effective  Time  less  such
  liabilities,   the  "Second  Amount"),  then  promptly  upon  notice  of  such
  determination by the Old Disc  Shareholders to the Company,  the Company shall
  issue to such Old Disc  Shareholders,  on a pro rata basis based on the number
  of shares of Old Disc Common Stock held by such shareholders immediately prior
  to the Effective Time, the number of shares of the Company's Common Stock (the
  "RCL  Designated  Shares")  sufficient  (without  duplication) to increase the
  percentage  ownership  of the  Company by all of such  shareholders  that such
  shareholders have had immediately after the Effective Time (excluding, any RCL
  Indemnity  Shares (as defined  below)  issued after the  Effective  Time) from
  60.23%  to a  percentage  determined  by  a  formula  defined  in  the  Merger
  Agreement.  Although the formula in the Merger  Agreement  allows the Old Disc
  Shareholders  to receive as much as three  times the number of RCL  Designated
  Shares, the Old Disc Shareholders agreed to limit the calculation to two times
  the number of RCL Designated Shares.

       Notwithstanding  the provision of the Merger  Agreement  described in the
  immediately  preceding  paragraph,  the RCL  Stockholders  and  the  Old  Disc
  Shareholders have entered into an agreement (the "Letter Agreement")  pursuant
  to which  the RCL  Stockholders  will  transfer  to the Old Disc  Shareholders
  shares  of DGI  Common  Stock  owned by the RCL  Stockholders  instead  of the
  Company   issuing  certain  shares  of  DGI  Common  Stock  to  the  Old  Disc
  Shareholders,  but only if and to the extent  that the net assets are  between
  $4,900,000  and  $5,304,750.  "Net  Assets"  means  RCL's cash and  marketable
  securities at the Effective Time less the RCL liabilities.

       Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, the Old Disc  Shareholders were issued
  342,256 shares of its Common Stock on December 3, 1996.  The RCL  Stockholders
  also  transfered  60,000  shares of Common  Stock of the  Company  to Old Disc
  Shareholders (the "RCL Indemnity Shares").

  Net Income Per Share
  --------------------
       Net income per share is computed  under the  treasury  stock method which
  assumes  the  exercise  of all  outstanding  options  and  warrents  which are
  dilutive.  The  computation of weighted  average shares  outstanding  does not
  include incremental shares relating to outstanding warrants since the exercise
  price of the warrants exceed the market price.

  On May 17, 1996, the Company acquired substantially all of the assets and 
  certain liabilities of Pointille, Inc., a California based printing company
  ("Pointille") , for $662,545 in cash, the issuance of 74,074 shares of the 
  Company's Common Stock, and the issuance of a promissory note in the amount 
  of $330,000 (principal and interest), payable in 36 equal monthly 
  installments of principal and interest beginning on June 17, 1996 (the 
  "California Acquisition"). The Company recorded the value of the 74,074 
  shares of the Company's Common Stock issued at the estimated fair value at 
  the date of the California Acquisition. The California Acquisition was 
  accounted for using the purchase method of accounting and in accordance with 
  generally accepted accounting principles. The net worth of Pointille as of 
  May 17, 1996 is expected to be finalized by May 1997; therefore, an estimate 
  of the allocation of the purchase price was made on the basis of currently 
  available information.

  The allocation of the purchase price of Pointille was as follows:

the repayment of  Pointille's  bank line of credit and notes payable  (which was
partially  offset by the  payment of  Pointille's  bank line of credit and notes

  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and 
  Results of Operations

  General
  -------
     The following is a discussion of the consolidated  financial  condition and
  results of operation of the Company for the three month period ended March 31,
  1997.  The  discussion  should  be  read in  conjunction  with  the  Company's
  consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Annual
  Report.

  Introduction
  ------------
     Disc  Graphics,  Inc.  was  incorporated  in August 1992 under the name RCL
  Capital Corp.  ("RCL") to serve as a vehicle to effect a business  combination
  with an operating  business.  On November 18, 1993,  RCL  completed the public
  offering of Units, each Unit consisting of one share of RCL's Common Stock and
  two redeemable warrants. Net proceeds of the public offering after the payment
  of certain additional expenses yielded approximately $6,400,000, which was put
  into escrow pending the acquisition of an operating business.

<PAGE>

  Merger
  ------
     On October 30, 1995, RCL consummated the merger (the "Merger")  pursuant to
  the  Agreement  and  Plan of  Merger  dated  as of May 8,  1995  (the  "Merger
  Agreement")  between RCL and Old Disc.  The merger was subject to, among other
  things,  approval by RCL's  stockholders,  which  approval  was  obtained at a
  special  meeting of  stockholders  held on October 27,  1995.  Pursuant to the
  Merger  Agreement  (i) Old Disc merged with and into RCL,  (ii) RCL's name was
  changed to Disc  Graphics,  Inc.  and (iii) all of the  outstanding  shares of
  Class A Common  Stock,  no par  value,  and the Class B Common  Stock,  no par
  value, of Old Disc were converted into (a) an aggregate of 3,100,000 shares of
  Common Stock of RCL and (b) and an aggregate of 1,000,000 warrants to purchase
  an aggregate of 1,000,000 shares of Common Stock of RCL,  one-quarter of which
  shall be exercisable at a price of each of $7.00, $8.00, $9.00 and $10.00.

  Potential Future Issuance's of Shares of Common Stock by the Company
  --------------------------------------------------------------------
     Pursuant to the Merger  Agreement as modified by a certain  Agreement as of
  October  30,  1995  by  and  among  certain  stockholders  of  RCL  (the  "RCL
  Stockholders")  and  the  former  shareholders  of Old  Disc  (the  "Old  Disc
  Shareholders")  and RCL, if the Old Disc Shareholders  subsequently  determine
  from  time  to time  until  up to five  years  after  October  30,  1995  (the
  "Effective  Time") that, as of the Effective Time, either (i) RCL did not have
  cash or  marketable  securities  with a fair market value as of the  Effective
  Time of not less than  $6,000,000  (the actual  amount of cash and  marketable
  securities  held by RCL as of the Effective  Time, the "First Amount") or (ii)
  the cash and marketable  securities of RCL did not exceed all the  liabilities
  of RCL of any  kind  or  nature  (whether  fixed  or  contingent,  matured  or
  unmatured)  (including,   without  limitation,  all  liabilities  based  upon,
  relating to or arising  from any  actions  taken by or on behalf of RCL or the
  failure of RCL to take any actions prior to the Effective Time or any facts or
  circumstances  existing  prior to the Effective  Time,  which is any such case
  result in any liabilities, obligations or claims against the Company after the
  Effective Time) (all such liabilities collectively,  the "RCL Liabilities") by
  not less than $6,000,000 (the actual amount of cash and marketable  securities
  held by RCL as of the  Effective  Time  less  such  liabilities,  the  "Second
  Amount"),  then  promptly  upon notice of such  determination  by the Old Disc
  Shareholders  to the  Company,  the  Company  shall  issue  to such  Old  Disc
  Shareholders,  on a pro rata  basis  based on the number of shares of Old Disc
  Common  Stock held by such  shareholders  immediately  prior to the  Effective
  Time, the number of shares of the Company's  Common Stock (the "RCL Designated
  Shares")  sufficient  (without  duplication)  to increase  the  percentage  of
  ownership of the Company by all of such  shareholders  that such  shareholders
  have had  immediately  after the Effective  Time  (excluding any RCL Indemnity
  Shares (as defined  below) issued after the  Effective  Time) from 60.23% to a
  percentage  determined by a formula defined in the Merger Agreement.  Although
  the formula in the Merger  Agreement  allows for the Old Disc  Shareholders to
  receive  as much as three  times the number of RCL  Designated  Shares the Old
  Disc  Shareholders  agreed to limit the calculation to two times the number of
  RCL Designated Shares.

     Notwithstanding  the  provision  of the Merger  Agreement  described in the
  immediately  preceding  paragraph,  the RCL  Stockholders  and  the  Old  Disc
  Shareholders  have  entered  into  an  agreement  pursuant  to  which  the RCL
  Stockholders will transfer to the Old Disc Shareholders  shares of Disc Common
  Stock owned by the RCL  Stockholders  instead of the Company  issuing  certain
  shares of Disc Common Stock to the old Disc  Shareholders,  but only if and to
  the extent that Net Assets are between $4,900,000 and $5,304,750. "Net Assets"
  means RCL's cash and marketable  securities at the Effective Time less the RCL
  Liabilities.

     Pursuant to the agreement  the Old Disc  Shareholders  were issued  342,256
  shares of Company Common Stock on December 3, 1996. The RCL Stockholders  also
  transferred 60,000 shares of Common Stock to the Old Disc Shareholders.

<PAGE>

  Proceeds of the Merger
  ----------------------
     Net  proceeds  of the  merger  after  the  payment  for the  redemption  of
  approximately 185,000 shares of Common Stock at $5.15 per share, in accordance
  with the terms of the original RCL offering,  yielded  proceeds to the Company
  of  approximately  $5,000,000.  These  proceeds were used  primarily to reduce
  certain indebtedness of the Company and for working capital purposes.

     The Merger has been treated for accounting and financial reporting purposes
  as a reverse merger of RCL into Old Disc.  Accordingly,  the Company's results
  of operations prior to October 30, 1995 are those of Old Disc. In addition, in
  connection with the merger, Disc adopted a December 31 fiscal year.

  Pointille Acquisition
  ---------------------
     On May 18,  1996,  the Company,  acquired  (the  "California  Acquisition")
  substantially all of the assets and certain liabilities of Pointille,  Inc., a
  California corporation ("Pointille"),  pursuant to an asset purchase agreement
  dated as of May 17,  1996,  by and among the Company,  Pointille  and the sole
  shareholder of Pointille (the "Asset Purchase Agreement").  The purchase price
  consisted of $662,545 in cash,  74,074 shares of the  Company's  Common Stock,
  $.01 par value per share, a promissory note in the amount of $330,000, payable
  in 36 equal monthly  installments of principal and interest  beginning on June
  16, 1996, and transaction costs. The California Acquisition was recorded using
  the purchase method of accounting and accordingly,  the results of Pointille's
  operations  are included in the  Company's  results of operation  from May 18,
  1996. The goodwill related to Pointille was approximately  $1,055,115 at March
  31, 1997.

     Net sales for the  three  months  ended  March  31,  1997 were  $11,198,000
compared  to  $8,304,000  for the same period the prior  year,  representing  an
increase  of  $2,894,000  or 34.9%.  The  California  Acquisition  continues  to
contribute measurably to this growth,  representing  approximately $1,937,000 in
net sales.  The categories of the business  which continue to experience  growth
are  video/software  packaging and consumer  product  packaging  which increased
$1,399,000 or 64% and  $1,028,000  or 51%,  respectively.  Commercial  and music
sales  also  increased  by  57%  and  23%,  respectively.   The  Company's  base
music/audio  packaging  sales have  stabilized,  with the overall sales increase
within this category  coming from the  California  Acquisition.  The  categories
which  decreased in the three  months ended March 31, 1997  compared to the same
three  months of the prior year,  were  pharmaceutical,  vitamin  packaging  and
labels.  These  categories  decreased  by  $283,000  or 25%,  and $57,000 or 7%,
respectively.  The  pharmaceutical/vitamin  packaging decline is a result of the
change in the Company's focus to growing earnings, thereby concentrating on more
profitable segments within this business category.

  Gross Profit

     Gross profit for the three months  ended March 31, 1997 was  $2,983,000  (a
26.6% profit  margin)  compared to $1,732,000 (a 21% profit margin) for the same
period the prior  year,  representing  an increase of  $1,251,000  or 72%.  This
increase was due primarily to the increase in sales, the California acquisition,
and  continued  focus on both  variable and fixed  manufacturing  costs  through
improved efficiencies.

  Selling, General, and Administrative Expenses

     Selling,  general and administrative ("SG&A") expenses for the three months
ended March 31, 1997 were $1,993,000  compared to $1,524,000 for the same period
the prior year,  an increase of $469,000 or 31%.  This increase is due primarily
to normal inflationary increases, costs associated with the facility acquired in
the  California  Acquisition  and revenue  related  expenses (such as freight to
customers and commissions). SG&A as a percent of revenue declined from 18.4% for
the three months ended March 1996  compared to 17.8% for the same period in 1997
a 0.6 percentage point improvement.

  Interest Expense

     Interest  expense for the three  months  ended March 31, 1997 was  $149,000
compared to $179,000 for the same three months of the prior  period,  a decrease
of $30,000 or 17%. This decrease was due primarily to the repayment of debt

with cash provided by operating activities. The Company also entered into a
new revolving credit agreement on February 26, 1997,  providing for borrowing at
a rate of LIBOR plus 150; which  represents  approximately a 2 percentage  point
decrease  from the interest rate payable  under the  Company's  prior  revolving
credit agreement.

  Income Taxes

     The  provision  for income  taxes for the three months ended March 31, 1997
was  $336,000,  compared to $13,000,  an increase of $323,000.  This increase is
primarily  due to the  increase in pretax  income and offset by a decline in the
effective tax rate from 43% in 1996 to 40% in 1997.


  Net Income

     Net income for the three months ended March 31, 1997 was $504,000  compared
to $17,000 for the same period of the prior year, an increase of $487,000.  This
net  income  improvement  resulted  from the  increase  in sales,  coupled  with
improved  efficiencies  in the  manufacturing  processes  and the decline in the
effective tax rate.

  Liquidity and Capital Resources

     The primary  source of cash for the  Company's  business has been cash flow
from operations and borrowing  under the financing  agreement with the Company's
prior revolving credit agreement.  As of March 31, 1997, the Company had working
capital of $5,681,424.  Net cash provided by operating  activities for the three
months ended March 31, 1997 was $255,949, due to general business growth.

     The Company anticipates capital  expenditures of $700,000 for the remainder
of 1997,  primarily  for the  purchases of  manufacturing  equipment to increase
capacity and improve plant efficiencies.

     On February  26, 1997,  the Company  entered  into a new  revolving  credit
agreement  (the "Credit  Agreement")  with Key Bank which allows for  borrowings
equal  to  85% of  eligible  accounts  receivable  plus  up to  70% of  eligible
inventory,  not to  exceed  $10,000,000.  As of  March  31,  1997  our  eligible
borrowing lease was $8,000,000. The Credit Agreement is secured by substantially
all of the  unencumbered  assets of the Company.  The borrowing  rate under this
agreement is either (i) LIBOR plus 125 to 175 basis points depending on the Debt
Coverage Ratio or (ii) the Banks Base Rate.  The Credit  Agreement also provides
for a borrowing  sublimit for  acquisitions  in an amount equal to the lesser of
$3,000,000 or 25% of the Companys  tangible net worth.  The  utilization of this
sublimit must be in compliance with the Credit Agreement as a whole. As of March
31,  1997,  DGI was in  compliance  with the  covenants  specified in the Credit
Agreement.

  New Accounting Pronouncements

     Statement of Financial  Accounting  Standards  (SFAS) No. 128 "Earnings per
Share", is effective for annual and interim  periods  ending after December 15,
1997.  SFAS No. 128  specifies  the  computation,  presentation  and  disclosure
requirement for earning per share for public entities.  This statement  requires
entities  with complex  capital  structures  to present both basic  earnings per
share (EPS) and dilutive EPS, as defined in the pronouncement. SFAS No. 128 does
not permit  early  application  and requires  restatement  of all prior EPS data
presented.  The Company is continuing to assess the impact of this pronouncement
and does not  believe  that the  adoption  of SFAS No.  128 will have a material
effect on previously reported earnings per share.
