                       NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                (Unaudited)  
  
                            December 28, 1996
  
  
1.  Effective July 1, 1996 the Company, through its subsidiary, INBRAND Europe
    B.V. (INBRAND Europe), acquired Julian T. Holding B.V., a Dutch company
    (JTH), upon execution of a definitive contribution agreement.  Under
    the terms of the agreement, in exchange for all of the outstanding shares
    of JTH, the sole shareholder of JTH became a 4.95% shareholder of INBRAND
    Europe in a business transaction valued at approximately $1,300,000
    accounted for as a purchase.  Prior to this transaction, the management
    of JTH had assumed management positions at INBRAND France, also a
    subsidiary of INBRAND Europe, as part of INBRAND's plan to restructure
    the former Celatose operations acquired by INBRAND France during fiscal
    1996.  Certain fair values of JTH assets have not yet been finalized.  As
    a result, estimates of these fair values have been used in consolidating
    JTH.  These ultimate differences, if any, of the actual fair values from 
    the estimates used are not expected to be material.

2.  The effective consolidated income tax rate of 32.7% for the twenty-six
    week period ended December 28, 1996 (versus 47.9% for the fiscal year
    ended June 29, 1996 and 44.6% for the twenty-six week period ended
    December 30, 1995) is less than the expected statutory rate primarily
    due to a tax holiday granted to certain INBRAND Europe operations.

3.  On October 25, 1996 the Company declared a 3 for 2 stock split for all
    shareholders of record on November 8, 1996.  The split resulted in the
    issuance of 3,920,026 new shares bringing the total outstanding shares to
    11,760,123.  All per share amounts have been restated to reflect the 
    effects of the split.

4.  In January 1997 INBRAND Europe negotiated and executed an unsecured
    revolving multi-currency credit facility with a European financial
    institution in the amount of $15 million.  The terms, conditions,
    requirements, restrictions and financial covenants of this facility are
    substantially the same as those of the $35 million credit facility with
    the Company's primary U.S. lender.  The Company has guaranteed this debt on
    behalf of its INBRAND Europe subsidiary.

                     MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

Results of Operations

Net sales increased 214.3% for the second quarter of fiscal 1997 compared with
the year-earlier period and 212.1% year-to-date compared to the prior year-to-
date period.  This increase was consistent with the North American growth the
Company has achieved over the past several quarters and was also due, in
large part, to the acquired European operations and INBRAND UK maturing as
part of the consolidated group.

Gross Profit as a percentage of net sales in the second quarter decreased
to 27.8% from 28.2% in the year-earlier period.  Gross Profit percent year-
to-date increased to 28.3% for fiscal 1997 form 27.8% for fiscal 1996.  The
decrease in the second quarter was primarily a result of lower European gross
margins, which are at lower levels than in North America, the impact of
which more than offset the benefit of favorable raw material costs.  The
increase year-to-date was due to higher gross margins from North American
operations as a result of manufacturing efficiencies and more favorable raw
material costs partially offset by lower European gross margins from acquired
businesses.  As a result of the Company's raw material supply contract, costs
of certain raw materials have been stabilized moreso than in prior periods.
While general price levels of the Company's raw materials were relatively
stable during the first and second quarters, there is no trend which will
allow the Company to accurately project the future, short term movements in
these prices.

As a percentage of net sales, operating expenses for the second quarter
increased to 20.4% from 18.0% in the year-earlier period and year-to-date
increased to 19.8% for fiscal 1997 from 17.8% for fiscal 1996.  For the
fiscal 1997 second quarter and year-to-date the absolute level of selling
expenses continued to increase due to expansion of sales and marketing
activities as well as due to the impact of the acquired operations.  They
also increased slightly as a percentage of sales.  Administrative expense
level increases are due to the impact of the acquired operations as well as
from internal growth in North America.  Additionally, operating expenses at
INBRAND UK, while at similar absolute levels, were proportionately higher as
a percentage of sales during the period.

As a percentage of net sales, net income in the second quarter was 3.7% down
from 4.9% in the year-earlier quarter and year-to-date 1997 was 4.7% down
from 5.0% in the prior year-to-date period.  This decrease was due to lower
gross margin levels discussed above coupled with increases in operating
expenses along with increases in interest expense due to debt incurred as a
result of the Company's acquisition program.

Earnings per share for second quarter were $.18 compared to $.11 in the
year-earlier period.  Earnings per share year-to-date were $.45 for fiscal
1997 compared to $.22 for fiscal 1996.  This increase was due to higher net
income levels on relatively unchanged levels of shares outstanding.

Liquidity and Capital Resources  
  
Cash generated from operating activities was $2.3 million for the twenty-six
weeks ended December 28, 1996 compared to $2.5 million in the year-earlier
period.  While the cumulative effect of net income and depreciation for the
current period generated $8.8 million of cash flow ($4.2 million more than
in the year-earlier period), working capital needs, primarily associated with
the Company's acquisitions, required the use of $6.5 million for the twenty-
six week period.

During the twenty-six week period the Company increased its borrowings under
its U.S. $35 million unsecured line of credit by $8.8 million.
These borrowings were used to fund the Company's continued expansion program
and for general working capital needs.

The Company intends to continue its expansion program during the current
fiscal year and has renewed its unsecured revolving credit line, increasing
it to $35 million.  Additionally, in Janurary 1997 INBRAND Europe negotiated
and executed a $15 million unsecured foreign currency based revolving credit
facility with a European bank to support the working capital needs of INBRAND
Europe and its subsidiaries.  The Company guaranteed repayment of this debt
on behalf of its INBRAND Europe subsidiary.   Management believes that the
Company's capital position, together with amounts generated from operations
and additional borrowings through the credit facilities will be sufficient to
meet the Company's cash needs for the future.
