2.   ACQUISITIONS

     On January 28, 2000, the Company acquired Braceland Brothers,
Inc., a commercial printing company located in Philadelphia,
Pennsylvania, with approximate annual sales of $30.3 million.

     In February 2000, the Company acquired 13,450,588 shares (or 91%
outstanding) of the common stock of Atlanta-based American Business
Products ("ABP") for $20 per share in a cash tender offer.  In the
second step of the acquisition, ABP merged with a wholly owned
subsidiary of the Company.  The total value of the transaction,
including the assumption of debt, was approximately $333.6 million. ABP
is a premier provider of printed office products and specialty packaging
solutions through its Curtis 1000, International Envelope, Discount
Labels and Jen-Coat business units. ABP reported 1999 sales of $475.9
million and net income and fully diluted earnings per share from
continuing operations of $19.7 million and $1.31, respectively.

     On May 24, 2000 the Company acquired Craftsman Litho, Inc., a
commercial printing company located in Waterbury, Connecticut, with
approximate annual sales of $12.8 million.

     On June 5, 2000, the Company acquired Strathmore Press, Inc., a
commercial printing company located in Cherry Hills, New Jersey, with
approximate annual sales of $15.0 million.

     These acquisitions have been accounted for as purchases and,
accordingly, the net purchase price of each acquisition was allocated to
the various assets and liabilities according to their estimated fair
values as of the date of the respective purchase.  The results of
operations of each of the acquisitions have been included in the
accompanying consolidated statements of operations from the date of the
acquisition.

     Certain purchase agreements require the payment of additional
consideration in the form of cash payments if specific operating
performance criteria are met.  Any subsequent payment will be allocated
to goodwill. In addition, the purchase price allocation to inventory,
property, plant and equipment and restructuring charges for closing
certain plants for certain acquisitions have not been finalized.
Therefore, the amount of goodwill could be adjusted within one year of
the purchase.

     The table below presents the results of operations for the three-
month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2000 and 1999 giving effect
to the acquisition of ABP and the $800 million senior secured credit
facility (See Note 3) as if they had occurred on January 1, 2000 and
January 1, 1999, respectively.  The table includes Jen-Coat as a
discontinued operation (See Note 7 for further information).

</TABLE>

     On February 18, 2000, the Company entered into a $800 million
senior secured credit facility (the "New Facility").  The proceeds were
used to finance the acquisition of ABP, pay related costs and expenses,
refinance the unsecured revolving loan facilities, and reduce the
amounts drawn under the accounts receivable securitization (see Note 5),
with the remainder to provide funds for general corporate purposes.  The
availability under the unsecured uncommitted revolving loan facility,
due July 31, 2001, was reduced from $20 million to $10 million.  The
unsecured revolving loan facility, due March 31, 2003 was terminated.

     The New Facility consists of a $250 million revolving line of
credit, a $300 million Tranche A term loan and a $250 million Tranche B
term loan. The Company is required to repay $25 million of principal in
the first year of the Tranche A term loan, with increases of $10 million
a year until a $75 million payment in the sixth year.  The Company is
required to pay $2.5 million per year on the Tranche B term loan, with a
balloon payment in 2007 of $233 million.  Any optional prepayments of
principal must be applied proportionately among the Tranche A and B term
loans.  The revolving line may be paid down at any time at the option of
the Company.

     The New Facility contains certain financial and other covenants
that are customary for credit facilities of its type and size.  The New
Facility is secured by substantially all tangible and intangible
property of U.S. entities, except for the accounts receivable sold under
the securitization program and certain property and equipment under
lease obligations.

     In 2000, the Company wrote off deferred financing costs of
$635,000 (net of $244,000 of income tax benefits) capitalized in
connection with the bank debt which was repaid in February, 2000. The
write-off is shown as an extraordinary item in the statement of
operations.  Also, in March 2000, the Company repurchased $12,987,000 of
the outstanding Convertible Subordinated Notes at a discount and
recorded a gain of $2,989,000 (net of $1,151,000 of income tax expense),
which is shown as an extraordinary item in the statement of operations.

4.   RESTRUCTURING CHARGES

     In November 1998, the Company committed to implement a
restructuring program affecting the Envelopes and Commercial Printing
segments and recorded a pre-tax provision of $15,961,000, of which
$11,699,000 represented non-cash charges for asset write-offs and
impairments, primarily machinery and equipment. Impairment losses were
calculated based on the excess of the carrying amount of the assets over
the assets' fair values.  The fair value of an asset is generally
determined based on recent comparable sales and independent quotes from
the used equipment market.  The remaining $4,262,000 was for severance,
other termination benefits and property exit costs, including
noncancelable operating leases. These charges were a result of the
regionalization of the Company's U.S. Envelopes operations and
reorganization of the Company's Commercial Printing operations,
primarily in the Northwest.

     The Company also incurred $499,000 and $998,000 in expenses for
the three months and six months ended June 30, 1999, respectively,
relating to the relocation of personnel, equipment and inventory, which
under generally accepted accounting principles could not be accrued for
as part of the Company's restructuring initiative.  These costs are
included in "Selling, administrative and other" in the consolidated
statements of operations.  Severance costs for the 616 personnel
included in the restructuring provision resulted from regionalizing
special manufacturing operations (490 personnel) and administrative
functions (126 personnel) in various locations of the Company's U.S.
operations. Approximately 570 personnel had been terminated as of June
30, 2000.  The remaining property exit costs are for one lease, which
has been exited for a cost of $600,000 plus legal fees in July 2000.

     The following table summarizes the costs associated with the
restructuring program (in thousands):

5.   COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

     In July 1999, the Company and certain of its subsidiaries
("Originators") entered into an agreement to sell, on a revolving basis,
trade receivables to a wholly-owned subsidiary, Mail-Well Trade
Receivables Corp. ("MTRC"). MTRC was capitalized by the Company as a
bankruptcy-remote special purpose entity that is subject to certain
covenants and restrictions, including a restriction from engaging in any
business or activity unrelated to acquiring and selling interests in
receivables. New receivables, except those failing certain eligibility
criteria, are sold to MTRC on a daily basis as previously sold accounts
receivables are collected.  MTRC, in turn, sells an undivided variable
percentage interest in the pool of receivables, up to a maximum of $75
million (reduced from $150 million at December 31, 1999), to a multi-
seller receivables securitization company, for which there are no
repurchase agreements. The Company maintains a subordinated interest in
the portion of the pooled receivables, which are not transferred to the
securitization company.

     The Company's securitization is accounted for as a sale in
accordance with FASB Statement No. 125, Accounting for Transfers and
Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities.
Therefore, the Company's accounts receivable have been reduced by the
amount of receivables sold to MTRC and the retained interest in the pool
of receivables has been reported as an investment available for sale,
recorded at its estimated fair value.  An allowance for doubtful
accounts is also maintained for both receivables not included in the
pool and for its retained interest in the pool.  As of June 30, 2000,
the Company had sold $140.0 million of accounts receivable to MTRC and
MTRC had sold beneficial interests totaling $75.0 million to the
securitization company.

     The Company is involved in various lawsuits incidental to its
businesses.  In management's opinion, it is not probable that an adverse
determination against the Company relating to these suits would occur
that would be material to the consolidated financial statements.

6.   SEGMENT INFORMATION

     The Company's operating segments prepare separate financial
information that is evaluated regularly by the Chief Operating Officer
in assessing performance and deciding how to allocate resources.
Corporate expenses include the costs of maintaining a corporate office.
The Company does not allocate corporate overhead, interest (income)
expense, amortization expense, gains and losses on disposal of assets or
income taxes by segment in assessing performance. Operating segments of
the Company are defined primarily by product line and consist of
Commercial Printing, Envelope, Label and Printed Office Products. ABP
segments were included in Mail-Well's segments as follows: Curtis 1000
is included in Printed Office Products; International Envelope,
Envelope; Label Lynx, Label; and Discount Labels, Printed Office
Products.

     The segment information that follows excludes the Jen-Coat
operation, which is shown as a discontinued operation in the
consolidated statements of operations for the three months and six
months periods ended June 30, 2000.  See Note 7 for further information.

     Two locations were reclassified from Envelope to Commercial
Printing and Printed Office Products, respectively, since the 1999 Form
10-K.  Label Lynx was reclassified from Printed Office Products to Label
since the March 31, 2000 Form 10-Q.  Segment information for all periods
has been restated to reflect these changes. Segment information as of
and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999 is
presented below:

7.   SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

     In November 1996, the Company refinanced certain equipment under a
sale/leaseback arrangement.  In 1997, the Company reacquired the
equipment from the original lessor and sold and leased back such
equipment from a new buyer-lessor.  In August 2000, the Company entered
into a renewed lease related to substantially the same pool of
equipment, which added certain additional pieces as substitute for
previously disposed equipment for a total fair value of approximately
$23 million.  In addition, the Company refinanced a new pool of
equipment under a sale/leaseback arrangement with a fair value of $19
million.  The proceeds were used to pay down the secured revolving line
of credit.

     The leasebacks are classified as operating leases.  At the end of
the six year lease term, the Company may either (1) purchase the
equipment for a specified amount, (2) sell the equipment on behalf of
the lessor, or (3) return the equipment to the lessor for a fee.  If the
Company elects to return the equipment to the lessor at the end of the
lease term, the Company has guaranteed a residual value of $16.4 million
for the benefit of the lessor.

     In July 2000, the company signed a letter of intent to sell Jen-
Coat, its extrusion coating and laminating segment.  The transaction is
scheduled to close approximately September 30, 2000.  Net proceeds to
the company will be approximately $100 million and will be used
primarily to reduce debt.  The operating results of this operation are
reported as a discontinued operation in the consolidated statements of
operations for the three months and six months periods ended June 30,
2000 and the net assets are shown as a separate category of current
assets in the consolidated balance sheets as of June 30, 2000.

     In July 2000, the Board of Directors approved the purchase on the
open market of up to $10 million of its common stock at prevailing market
levels, at such time and on such terms as the Company is permitted under
the rules and regulations of the Securities Exchange Commission and New
York Stock Exchange.

     On July 25, 2000, the Company acquired CML Industries Ltd., a
supplier of envelopes and paper converted products located in Ontario
and Quebec, Canada, with approximate annual sales of $29.7 million.


8.   CONDENSED CONSOLIDATING FINANCIAL INFORMATION

     In December 1998, MWI ("Issuer" or "MWI"), the Company's wholly-
owned subsidiary, and the only direct subsidiary of the Company, issued
$300.0 million aggregate principal amount of 8 3/4% Senior Subordinated
Notes ("Senior Notes") due in 2008. The Senior Notes are guaranteed by
the majority of the U.S. subsidiaries (the "Guarantor Subsidiaries") of
MWI, all of which are wholly owned, and by Mail-Well, Inc. ("Parent
Guarantor").  The guarantees are joint and several, full, complete and
unconditional.  There are no material restrictions on the ability of the
Guarantor Subsidiaries to transfer funds to MWI in the form of cash
dividends, loans or advances, other than ordinary legal restrictions
under corporate law, fraudulent transfer and bankruptcy laws.

     The following condensed consolidating financial information
illustrates the composition of the Parent Guarantor, Issuer, Guarantor
Subsidiaries and non-guarantor subsidiaries.  The Issuer, the Guarantor
Subsidiaries and the non-guarantor subsidiaries comprise all of the
direct and indirect subsidiaries of the Parent Guarantor.  Management
has determined that separate complete financial statements would not
provide additional material information that would be useful in
assessing the financial composition of the Guarantor Subsidiaries.

     Investments in subsidiaries are accounted for under the equity
method, wherein the investor company's share of earnings and income
taxes applicable to the assumed distribution of such earnings are
included in net income. In addition, investments increase in the amount
of permanent contributions to subsidiaries and decrease in the amount of
distributions from subsidiaries.  The elimination entries eliminate the
equity method investment in subsidiaries and the equity in earnings of
subsidiaries, intercompany payables and receivables and other
transactions between subsidiaries.

   Net sales for the quarter ended June 30, 2000 increased 33.2% to
$584.9 million compared to net sales of $439.0 million for the quarter
ended June 30, 1999. This increase in net sales was attributable to
sales from companies acquired during 2000, a full quarter of sales from
companies acquired during 1999 and internal growth in Commercial
Printing and Label offset by a decline in pricing within the Envelope
segment. Gross profit of $137.1 million for the quarter ended June 30,
2000 represents a 28.9% increase over the quarter ended June 30, 1999.
Expressed as a percent of net sales, gross profit decreased by 80 basis
points to 23.4% for the quarter ended June 30, 2000 compared to 24.2%
for the quarter ended June 30, 1999.  This decrease was primarily due to
unfavorable pricing in the envelope business offset by acquisitions with
higher gross profit percentages.  Expressed as a percent of net sales,
other operating costs (which includes selling, administrative and other
expense) increased to 16.4% for the quarter ended June 30, 2000 from
15.4% in the quarter ended June 30, 1999.  The increase was mainly due
to the impact of acquisitions. Operating income increased 5.2% from the
quarter ended June 30, 1999.

   Net income from continuing operations for the quarter ended June
30, 2000 decreased 27.5% to $10.9 million from $15.0 million in the
second quarter of the prior year.  This decrease was primarily due to a
70% increase in interest expense, partially offset by reduced income tax
expense.  Earnings per diluted share from continuing operations
decreased 25.0% to $0.21 in the quarter ended June 30, 2000 from $0.28
in 1999.

   Net sales for the six months ended June 30, 2000 increased 29.0%
to $1,134.5 million compared to net sales of $879.5 million for the six
months ended June 30, 1999. This increase in net sales was attributable
to sales from companies acquired during 2000, a full six months of sales
from companies acquired during 1999 and internal growth in Commercial
Printing and Label offset by a decline in volume and pricing within the
Envelope segment. Gross profit of $267.2 million for the six months
ended June 30, 2000 represents a 30.4% increase over the six months
ended June 30, 1999. Expressed as a percent of net sales, gross profit
increased by 30 basis points to 23.6% for the six months ended June 30,
2000 compared to 23.3% for the six months ended June 30, 1999.  This
increase was primarily due to acquisitions with higher gross profit
percentages offset by pricing in the envelope business expressed as a
percent of net sales, other operating costs (which includes selling,
administrative and other expense) increased to 15.9% for the six months
ended June 30, 2000 from 14.6% in the six months ended June 30, 1999.
The increase was mainly due to the impact of acquisitions. Operating
income increased 12.9% from the six months ended June 30, 1999.

   Net income from continuing operations for the six months ended
June 30, 2000 decreased 11.1% to $26.5 million from $29.8 million in the
six months of the prior year.  This decrease was primarily due to a 60%
increase in interest expense, partially offset by reduced income tax
expense.  Earnings per diluted share from continuing operations
decreased 8.9% to $0.51 for the six months ended June 30, 2000 from
$0.56 in 1999.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR SIGNIFICANT BUSINESS SEGMENTS

COMMERCIAL PRINTING
-------------------

QUARTER ENDED JUNE 30, 2000 COMPARED TO THE QUARTER ENDED JUNE 30, 1999

   NET SALES--Net sales increased by $54.1 million (32.2%) for the
quarter ended June 30, 2000 compared to the quarter ended June 30, 1999,
primarily due to a volume increase of approximately 15% and the balance
due to acquisitions in 1999 and 2000.

   OPERATING INCOME--The increase in operating income from $13.8
million to $14.9 million in the quarter ended June 30, 2000 was due to
acquisitions in 1999 and 2000 as volume impact was offset by changes in
product mix.  Total cost of sales, as a percent of sales, increased from
77.3% for the quarter ended June 30, 1999 to 78.0% for the quarter ended
June 30, 2000. This increase was primarily due to general cost
increases, mainly in raw materials, and product mix.


SIX-MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2000 COMPARED TO THE SIX-MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30,
1999

   NET SALES--Net sales increased by $91.5 million (25.8%) for the
six-months ended June 30, 2000 compared to the six-months ended June 30,
1999, primarily due to a volume increase of approximately 15% and the
balance due to acquisitions in 1999 and 2000.

   OPERATING INCOME--The majority of the increase in operating income
from $28.3 million to $32.6 million in the six-months ended June 30,
2000 was due to acquisitions in 1999 and 2000 as volume impact was
offset by changes in product mix.  Total cost of sales, as a percent of
sales was the same (77.7%) for both six-month periods.

ENVELOPE
--------

QUARTER ENDED JUNE 30, 2000 COMPARED TO THE QUARTER ENDED JUNE 30, 1999

   NET SALES--Net sales increased by $32.9 million (18.6%) for the
quarter ended June 30, 2000 compared to the quarter ended June 30, 1999.
The majority of the increase (14%) in net sales was attributable to
sales from a company acquired during 2000 and a full quarter of sales
from a company acquired during 1999, with the remainder resulting from
management's strategy to grow sales volume by lowering prices to meet
competitor's prices.

   OPERATING INCOME--The decrease in operating income from $22.8
million to $19.6 million in the quarter ended June 30, 2000 versus the
quarter ended June 30, 1999 was mostly due to product mix changes and
general pricing pressures offset by the impact of 1999 and 2000
acquisitions. Total cost of sales, as a percent of sales, increased from
74.6% for the quarter ended June 30, 1999 to 79.2% for the quarter ended
June 30, 2000.  The increase was due to product mix changes and pricing
pressures.  The strategy to grow sales in the second quarter by lowering
prices was successful, but resulted in reduced operating margins.
Rising paper prices, which could not in some cases be immediately passed
on to customers also contributed to reduced operating margins.

SIX-MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2000 COMPARED TO THE SIX-MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30,
1999

   NET SALES--Net sales increased by $40.7 million (11.0%) for the
six-months ended June 30, 2000 compared to the six-months ended June 30,
1999. The majority of the increase in net sales was attributable to
sales from a company acquired during 2000 and a full six months of sales
from a company acquired during 1999.  Increases in volume for the
quarter ended June 30, 2000 were offset by a decrease in volume for the
quarter ended March 31, 2000.

   OPERATING INCOME--The decrease in operating income from $47.3
million to $41.8 million in the six-months ended June 30, 2000 versus
the six-months ended June 30, 1999 was due mostly to general pricing
pressures and product mix changes. Total cost of sales, as a percent of
sales, increased from 75.3% for the six-months ended June 30, 1999 to
78.5% for the six-months ended June 30, 2000.  The increase was due to
product mix changes and pricing pressures offset by the impact of 1999
and 2000 acquisitions.  The strategy to grow sales in the second quarter
by lowering prices was successful, but resulted in reduced operating
margins.  Rising paper prices, which could not in some cases be passed
on immediately to customers also contributed to reduced operating
margins.

PRINTED OFFICE PRODUCTS
-----------------------

QUARTER ENDED JUNE 30, 2000 COMPARED TO THE QUARTER ENDED JUNE 30, 1999

   NET SALES--Net sales increased by $53.1 million (128.4%) for the
quarter ended June 30, 2000 compared to the quarter ended June 30, 1999.
This increase in net sales was attributable to sales from a company
acquired during 2000 offset by decreases in volume at existing
businesses.  Increases in specialty label and other specialty products
like VersaSeal(R) have been more than offset by decreases in the
traditional forms business.

   OPERATING INCOME--The majority of the increase in operating income
from $4.0 million to $9.4 million in the quarter ended June 30, 2000 was
due to acquisitions in 1999 and 2000 and a change in product mix. Total
cost of sales, as a percent of sales, decreased from 77.9% for the
quarter ended June 30, 1999 to 68.0% for the quarter ended June 30,
2000.  Total cost of sales, as a percent of sales, was 77.7% for the
quarter ended June 30, 2000 excluding acquisitions from 2000.  The
decrease was due to lower material costs through aggressive management
of our main supplier agreement and effects of a new waste reduction
program offset by the negative impact of changes in product mix.

SIX-MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2000 COMPARED TO THE SIX-MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30,
1999

   NET SALES--Net sales increased by $87.3 million (114.5%) for the
six-months ended June 30, 2000 compared to the six-months ended June 30,
1999. This increase in net sales was attributable to sales from a
company acquired during 2000 and from companies acquired during 1999
offset by decreases in volume at existing businesses.  Increases in
specialty label and other specialty products like VersaSeal(R) have been
more than offset by decreases in the traditional forms business.

   OPERATING INCOME--The majority of the increase in operating income
from $7.0 million to $17.6 million in the six-months ended June 30, 2000
was due to acquisitions in 1999 and 2000, productivity improvements and
a change in product mix. Total cost of sales, as a percent of sales,
decreased from 80.2% for the six-months ended June 30, 1999 to 68.7% for
the six-months ended June 30, 2000.  Total cost of sales, as a percent
of sales, was 79.2% for the quarter ended June 30, 2000 excluding
acquisitions from 1999 and 2000.  The decrease was due to lower material
costs through aggressive management of our main supplier agreement and
effects of a new waste reduction program offset by the negative impact
of changes in product mix.

CORPORATE
---------

   Certain major production equipment is accounted for as an
operating lease on a consolidated basis while treated as a purchase on a
segment level. The Company classifies the excess of the operating lease
expense over depreciation as a corporate expense in analyzing segment
operations. The Company does not include the amortization of intangibles
recorded in acquisitions in segment results but rather includes it on a
corporate basis.  In addition, corporate expenses include corporate
administrative expense, loss (gain) on disposal of assets and a
reduction of cost of sales from certain supplier rebate programs not
allocated to segments.

   Corporate expenses for the quarter and six-months ended June 30,
2000 increased $1.7 million and $2.0 million respectively compared to
1999 as a result of increases in amortization expense and operating
lease expense offset by an increase in corporate retained rebates.
Amortization expense increased as a result of the acquisitions made in
1999 and 2000.

INTEREST EXPENSE
----------------

   Interest expense, including accounts receivable securitization
discount, increased $9.9 million and $16.1 million, respectively, for
the quarter and six-months periods ended ended June 30, 2000 compared to
the same periods of 1999.  Both increases occurred as a result of higher
average bank debt balances, primarily due to acquisitions, and an
increase in the weighted-average borrowing rate due to the refinancing
of certain bank facilities and a general increase in market interest
rates.  The Company continued to participate in its accounts receivable
securitization agreement whereby it can sell, on a revolving basis, an
undivided percentage ownership interest in a designated pool of accounts
receivable up to a maximum of $75.0 million until July 2004. At June 30,
2000 and 1999, $140.0 million and $96.0 million, respectively, had been
sold under this agreement. The receivables were sold at a discount
slightly above the prevailing commercial paper rate, plus certain other
fees.

INCOME TAX EXPENSE
------------------

   The effective tax rate was 36.9% and 39.4% for the quarter and
six-months periods ended June 30, 2000, respectively, compared to 41.0%
for both periods in 1999.  The effective tax rate was higher than the
federal statutory rates due to state and provincial income taxes and
certain goodwill amortization that is not tax deductible. See Note 9 of
the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Company's
1999 Form 10-K.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

HISTORICAL CASH FLOW
--------------------

   Net cash flow provided by operating activities was $47.3 million
and $74.7 million for the six-months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999,
respectively.  The decrease in cash flow provided by operating
activities is due to the increase in working capital.  The largest
contributor to the increase in working capital is accounts receivable.
Accounts receivable has increased mostly in the Commercial Printing and
Label segments because of higher sales in the six months ended June 30,
2000 compared to the prior year.  Acquisitions required cash payments of
$327.7 million and $162.6 million for the six-months ended June 30, 2000
and 1999, respectively. Other investing activities, excluding investment
in marketable securities, were $43.9 million and $39.7 million for the
six months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively. The investment in
equity securities of $12.6 million in the six-months ended June 30, 2000
resulted from funding of supplemental retirement benefits of certain
employees or former employees of American Business Products, Inc. and an
investment in Sprockets.com.  Net cash flow from financing activities
was $332.7 million and $135.3 million for the six-months ended June 30,
2000 and 1999, respectively. See footnote 3 of the financial statements
contained in Item 1 for explanation of the 2000 financing activities.

   At June 30, 2000, the Company had approximately $194.3 million of
available credit under its various credit facilities.

                                26



<PAGE>
<PAGE>

FOREIGN CURRENCY
----------------

   The Company's foreign currency exposure primarily relates to its
Canadian operations. Net sales provided by the Canadian operations for
the six-months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999 was USD $104.1 million and
USD $95.4 million, respectively.  The impact of the change in Canadian
Dollar exchange rates was immaterial.

SEASONALITY AND ENVIRONMENT
---------------------------

   As the Company expands its operations into more commercial
printing and labels segments, it has become more impacted by
seasonality. Management expects the first and third quarter to report
higher sales for the Commercial Printing segment because of annual
report and car brochure business.  In addition, the third quarter is
traditionally the strongest for the Label segment.

   The effects of environmental matters had no material financial
impact on the historical operations of the Company and are not expected
to have a material effect on the Company's liquidity and capital
resources going forward.

NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

   In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 133, "Accounting for
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities" (the "Statement"), as
amended, which will be effective beginning in the year 2001, requires
derivative instruments to be recorded in the balance sheet at their fair
value with changes in fair value being recognized in earnings unless
specific hedging accounting criteria are met. Because of the Company's
minimal hedging and derivative activity, management does not anticipate
that the adoption of the statement will have a significant impact on its
operations and financial position.

ITEM 3.  QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

   The Company is exposed to certain market risks, including foreign
currency and interest rate risks. The foreign currency risk for foreign
currency denominated debt obligations (USD$18,622,000 at June 30, 2000)
and the interest rate risk for the investment in accounts receivable
securitization ($61,403,000 at June 30, 2000) are not considered to be
significant since the difference between the fair values and carrying
values are not material to the company's financial position. The
Company's cash flows from operations and earnings are affected by
changes in short-term interest rates since a large portion of its credit
agreements include rates variable with LIBOR.  As of June 30, 2000,
$608.8 million of variable rate debt was outstanding.  The fair value of
the Company's fixed rate long-term debt is affected by changes in long-
term interest rates.

   If LIBOR were to increase 1% from the rate at June 30, 2000 and
the Company borrowed the maximum amount available under its variable
rate debt ($803.1 million), the Company's annual interest expense would
increase by $8.0 million, and annual income after income taxes would
decrease by approximately $4.9 million using a marginal income tax rate
of 38.5%.  This analysis does not consider the effects of the reduced
level of overall economic activity that could exist in such an
environment.  Further, in the event of a change of such magnitude,
management would likely take actions to further mitigate its exposure to
the change.  However, due to the uncertainty of the specific actions
that would be taken and their possible effects, the sensitivity analysis
assumes no changes in the Company's financial structure.

   See Item 7A of the Company's 1999 Form 10-K for quantitative and
qualitative disclosures about market risk related to fixed rate long-
term debt.  No significant changes in market risk have occurred since
that filing.
