Item 2.  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations

Results of Operations

    Three months ended June 30, 1996 and 1995

    The Company's net sales increased 22.0% to $10,084,000 in the 1996 period
from $8,264,000 in the 1995 period. The increase was primarily attributable to
an increase in sales volume of the Company's molded fiber products and specialty
foam plastic products.

    Costs of sales as a percentage of sales improved to 75.4% in the 1996 period
from 77.3% in the 1995 period. The improvement in the cost of sales margin was
primarily attributable to continued volume and manufacturing efficiency
improvements associated with the Company's molded fiber products.

    Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of sales
improved to 19.7% in the 1996 period from 20.5% in the 1995 period.

    Interest expense increased slightly during these respective periods
primarily due to capital lease obligations associated with the Company's
purchase of additional molded fiber equipment.

    Six months ended June 30, 1996 and 1995

    The Company's net sales increased 11.4% to $18,777,000 in the 1996 period
from $16,851,000 in the 1995 period. The increase was primarily attributable to
an increase in sales volume of the Company's molded fiber products and
specialty foam plastic products. Sales in the 1996 period were impacted by a
two-week planned shut down of the California molded fiber plant for installation
of additional capacity, by increased seasonality associated with sales of molded
fiber products for computer peripherals and other consumer products, and by
adverse weather conditions, particularly in January 1996.

    Costs of sales as a percentage of sales improved to 75.9% in the 1996 period
from 77.5% in the 1995 period. The improvement in the cost of sales margin was
primarily attributable to continued volume and manufacturing efficiency
improvements associated with the Company's molded fiber products.

    Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of net sales
improved to 19.7% in the 1996 period from 20.6% in the 1995 period.

   Interest expense increased slightly during these respective periods primarily
due to capital lease obligations associated with the Company's purchase of 
additional molded fiber equipment.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

    At June 30, 1996 the Company's working capital was approximately $2,231,000,
including $446,000 of cash and cash equivalents. In addition, the Company had a
$3,500,000 bank revolving loan facility, of which $2,500,000 was outstanding at
June 30, 1996. This facility was renewed on June 30, 1996 and the facility
availability was increased to $4,500,000.

   During the six months ended June 31, 1996, operating activities provided the
Company with approximately $853,000 of cash, primarily due to the quarterly
profit, depreciation and amortization and an increase in accounts payables,
which were partially offset by an increase in accounts receivables and inventory
and a decrease in accrued expenses. The increases in accounts receivables,
accounts payables and inventory was primarily due to the increase in product
demand and sales.

  Cash used in investing activities of approximately $1,371,000 which was
attributable to additions of property, plant and equipment. This amount was
primarily attributable to the purchase of molded fiber manufacturing equipment
which was installed late in the second quarter of 1996 at the Company's new Iowa
facility.

  Net cash generated from financing activities totaled approximately $440,000,
primarily due to an increase in long term capital lease obligations related to
the new molded fiber manufacturing equipment which was partially offset by
principal repayments of long term debt and capital lease obligations. In the
first six months of 1996, the Company borrowed $941,000 under a 48 month capital
lease arrangement.

    At June 30, 1996 the Company had approximately $978,000 outstanding under
two mortgage notes and $275,000 outstanding under two equipment notes. At June
30, 1996 the current portion of these obligations, together with the Company's
line of credit, totaled $2,686,000.

On June 30, 1996 the Company renewed its lending arrangement with BayBank of
Boston. Under the terms of the renewal the revolving loan facility limit was
increased from $3,500,000 to $4,500,000. And BayBank agreed to extend the
Company an additional $2,000,000 equipment line of credit. The term of the
agreement expires on June 30, 1997.

On July 8, 1996 the Company announced that it will increase the manufacturing
capacity of its Iowa Moulded Fibre Technology plant by 50% by purchasing a
second molded pulp packaging machine for the facility. The Company anticipates
financing this obligation through an equipment note or a capital lease
obligation provided by its primary lending institution.

Although at some point in the future the Company may seek additional debt or
equity financing to fund its growth needs, management believes that cash
generated from operations together with its existing resources, including its
revolving loan facility and its new $2,000,000 equipment line, will be
sufficient to fund its cash flow requirements through at least the next 12
months.

Additionally on July 8, 1996 the Company announced that it had been approved for
listing on the Nasdaq National Market, and its stock began trading there
effective July 8th.

                            PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

                       UFP TECHNOLOGIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY

Item 1   Legal Proceedings.

           No Material Litigation

Item 2   Changes in Securities.

           On June 28, 1996, the Company amended its Certificate of
           Incorporation to increase the number of its authorized shares of
           Common Stock, $.01 par value, from 10,000,000 to 20,000,000. The
           additional shares of Common Stock are part of the Company's existing
           class of Common Stock and, if and when issued, would have the same
           rights and privileges as the shares of Common Stock presently
           outstanding.

           Pursuant to Delaware corporate law, the board of directors is
           authorized to issue from time to time any and all authorized and
           unissued shares of Common Stock for any proper corporate purposes
           without prior stockholder approval, except as may be required for a
           particular transaction by the Company's Certificate of Incorporation,
           or by the rules of the Nasdaq Stock Market, or any other stock
           exchange on which the Company's securities may then be listed.

           The proposed increase in the number of authorized shares of Common
           Stock will give the Company greater flexibility by allowing shares of
           common stock to be issued by the board of directors without the delay
           and expense of a special meeting of stockholders. For example, the
           board of directors may deem it appropriate to make a private or
           public offering of the Common Stock in order to raise funds for
           working capital or other purposes, or the Common Stock may be issued
           to finance possible future acquisitions, or for distribution pursuant
           to employee benefit plans.

           The authority of the board of directors to issue the newly-authorized
           but unissued shares of Common Stock might be considered as having the
           effect of discouraging an attempt by another person or entity to
           effect a takeover or otherwise gain control of the Company, since the
           issuance of additional shares of Common Stock would dilute the voting
           power of the Common Stock then outstanding.

           The Company is not aware of any efforts to accumulate the Company's
           securities or to obtain control of the Company, and the Company has
           no present intention or agreement to issue any additional shares of
           Common Stock, other than pursuant to outstanding options.
           Furthermore, the increase in the number of authorized shares of
           Common Stock is not part of any plan by the Company to adopt a series
           of antitakeover measures, and the Company has no present intention of
           soliciting a stockholder vote on any such measures or series of
           measures.

law.

                  (d) Notwithstanding anything contained in this Certificate of
Incorporation to the contrary, the affirmative vote of the holders of at least
two-thirds of the outstanding shares of Voting Stock, voting together as a
single class, shall be required to alter, change, amend, repeal or adopt any
provision inconsistent with this Article Eleventh.

times provided in the Credit Agreement; and

               (c) interest on the principal balance hereof from time to time

        The Borrowers irrevocably authorize the Bank to make or cause to be
made, at or about the time of the Drawdown Date of any Loan or at the time of
receipt of any payment of principal of this Note, an appropriate notation on the
grid attached to this Note, or the continuation of such grid, or any other
similar record, including computer records, reflecting the making of such Loan
or (as the case may be) the receipt of such payment. The outstanding amount of
the Loans set forth on the grid attached to this Note, or the continuation of
such grid, or any other similar record, including computer records, maintained
by the Bank with respect to any Loans shall be prima facie evidence of the
principal amount thereof owing and unpaid to the Bank, but the failure to
record, or any error in so recording, any such amount on any such grid,
continuation or other record shall not limit or otherwise affect the obligation
of the Borrowers hereunder or under the Credit Agreement to make payments of
principal of and interest on this Note when due.

        The Borrowers have the right in certain circumstances and the obligation
under certain other circumstances to prepay the whole or part of the principal
of this Note on the terms and conditions specified in the Credit Agreement.

unpaid principal amount of this Note and all of the unpaid interest accrued
thereon may become or be declared due and payable in the manner and with the
effect provided in the Credit Agreement.

        No delay or omission on the part of the Bank or any holder hereof in
exercising any right hereunder shall operate as a waiver of such right or of any
other rights of the Bank or such holder, nor shall any delay, omission or waiver
on any one occasion be deemed a bar or waiver of the same or any other right on
any further occasion.

        The Borrower and every endorser and guarantor of this Note or the
obligation represented hereby waives presentment, demand, notice, protest and
all other demands and notices in connection with the delivery, acceptance,
performance, default or enforcement of this Note, and assents to any extension
or postponement of the time of payment or any other indulgence, to any
substitution, exchange or release of collateral and to the addition or release
of any other party or person primarily or secondarily liable.

        THIS NOTE AND THE OBLIGATIONS OF THE BORROWERS HEREUNDER SHALL FOR ALL
PURPOSES BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAW OF THE
COMMONWEALTH OF MASSACHUSETTS (EXCLUDING THE



                                      -2-

LAWS APPLICABLE TO CONFLICTS OR CHOICE OF LAW). THE BORROWERS AGREE THAT ANY
SUIT FOR THE ENFORCEMENT OF THIS NOTE MAY BE BROUGHT IN THE COURTS OF THE
COMMONWEALTH OF MASSACHUSETTS OR ANY FEDERAL COURT SITTING THEREIN AND THE
CONSENT TO THE NONEXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF SUCH COURT AND THE SERVICE OF

IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE VENUE OF ANY SUCH SUIT OR ANY SUCH COURT OR
