today announced record results for the second quarter and six months ended
September 30, 1998.
Net income for the second quarter increased 76% to $7.5 million compared to

months rose 79% to $26.5 million on an 81% increase in sales to $188.4 million.

its acquisition program. During the first six months of the year, 11
acquisitions representing over $140 million in annual revenues were completed.

Joe R. Davis, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Consolidated
Graphics, said, "Our companies continue to demonstrate how superior resources
and a proven and consistent operating strategy can generate financial results
and growth that lead the industry. Our emphasis on advanced technology, shared
managerial innovation, purchasing economies and maintaining a strong capital
structure has enabled us to produce a solid track record of improvements at our
acquired companies."
Mr. Davis continued, "In the coming months, our acquisition program will
proceed while we benefit from continued strength in our existing operations. We
continue to be disciplined buyers of successful commercial printing companies in
markets throughout the U.S. Our internal cash flow, along with a strong capital
structure, will allow us to continue with our acquisition plans in the future."
Consolidated Graphics, Inc. is the fastest growing printing company in the
United States. A consolidator in a highly fragmented industry, the Company adds
value to its acquisitions through managerial and operational expertise,
financial strength and economies of scale. Upon completion of pending
acquisitions, Consolidated Graphics will have 50 companies nationwide with
annualized revenues in excess of $580 million.

and unknown risks, uncertainties or other factors that could cause actual
results to materially differ from the results, performance or other expectations
implied by these forward-looking statements. Consolidated Graphics' expectations
regarding run-rate revenues assume, among other things, completion of pending
