Performance--
HOUSTON, TEXAS - January 27, 1999 - Consolidated Graphics, Inc. (NYSE:CGX)
today announced record results for the third quarter and nine months ended
December 31, 1998.
Net income for the third quarter increased 78% to $8.7 million compared to
$4.9 million last year. On a per share basis, earnings increased 62% to $.60 per
diluted share compared to $.37 a year ago. Operating income for the third
quarter rose 84% to $16.3 million and sales increased 94% to $118.3 million.
For the nine months ended December 31, 1998, net income was $22.7 million,
74% higher than the $13.0 million reported last year. Diluted earnings per share
increased 63% to $1.63 versus $1.00 a year ago. Operating income for the nine
months rose 81% to $42.8 million on an 86% increase in sales to $306.6 million.
The strong sales growth for the quarter resulted from the continued success
of the Company's acquisition program coupled with strong internal growth.
Fourteen companies representing $180 million in annual revenues joined
Consolidated Graphics during the past ten months. In addition, with the
announcement of three new acquisitions this month, the Company now has signed
letters of intent to acquire another seven commercial printers with annualized
revenues of $110 million. In total, the Company has increased its run-rate
revenues 92% this fiscal year to $605 million.

Joe R. Davis, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Consolidated
Graphics, said, "Our strong operating performance for the quarter underscores
the success we have had in not only acquiring companies but also in improving
their productivity. Our emphasis on advanced technology, purchasing economies
and operating efficiencies enables us to improve the operating performance of
these companies over time. In addition, through our management development
program, we are investing in a strong management infrastructure to accommodate
our expanded operations."
Mr. Davis continued, "In the coming months, we will continue to execute on
this proven strategy. We are recognized in the industry as the leading acquirer
of successful commercial printing companies, and this leadership position, along
with our internal cash flow and strong capital structure, will allow us to
continue our disciplined acquisition program 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 53 companies nationwide with
annualized revenues in excess of $605 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
