(2)  Income Taxes --S Corporation Election

Prior to November 25, 1997, the Company elected to be taxed as an S corporation
under the Internal Revenue Code.  The Company's earnings or losses for the S 
Corporation period were allocated to its then current stockholders for 
inclusion in their individual tax returns.  As a result, no provision for 
federal taxes was required at the corporate level for that period.  The 
Company agreed to make distributions of earnings in amounts sufficient to 
enable stockholders to pay their federal and state income taxes resulting 
from pass-through of taxable income as a result of the S Corporation 
election.  A provision was made for state taxes during the S Corporation 
period as some states impose a tax on S Corporations.  Prior to such 
termination of S Corporation status, the Company distributed to its then 
current stockholders all accumulated S Corporation earnings as of the 
termination date.  Accordingly, the pro forma effect of this transaction has 
been disclosed in the accompanying pro forma balance sheet.

Pro forma net income and pro forma net income per share for the three month
period ended May 2, 1997, have been determined assuming that the Company had
been taxed as a C Corporation for federal and certain state income tax 
purposes for such periods. The pro forma tax benefit was $184,624.  Federal 
and state income taxes are provided for by the Company for first quarter, 
1998.

(3)  Acquisitions

During the three months ended May 1, 1998, the Company acquired the assets 
of a franchisee.  The assets and operations of the business acquired have 
been included in the accompanying consolidated financial statements since the 
date of acquisition.

Subsequent to the end of the first quarter the Company acquired the assets of 
another franchisee.

ITEM 2:  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS

            MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
                             AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


The following discussion of the Company's results of operations and its
liquidity and capital resources should be read in conjunction with the Financial
Statements of the Company and related Notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this
10Q.

                                      OVERVIEW

Paper Warehouse is a growing chain of stores specializing in party supplies and
paper goods operating under the names Paper Warehouse and Party Universe.  The
current management team purchased the business in 1986 and incorporated the
Company in Minnesota in 1987.  At the time of the acquisition, the Company
consisted of three stores located in Minneapolis/St. Paul metropolitan area.  In
1987, the Company began granting franchises.  Over the past ten years, the
Company has grown to an aggregate of 127 stores, including 75 Company-owned
stores and 52 franchise stores throughout 23 states.  In growing the number of
Company-owned stores, management has employed a strategy of clustering stores in
the Company's principal markets in an effort to provide its customers with
convenient store locations, expand its total market share and achieve favorable
economies of scale.

The Company completed its initial public offering on November 28, 1997.  The 
total offering was for 1,778,000 shares of common stock, all of which were 
offered by the Company.  Proceeds to the Company, net of offering expenses, 
were approximately $11.7 million.  On December 24, 1997, the underwriters 
partially exercised their over-allotment option and the Company sold an 
additional 207,800 shares of common stock.  Proceeds to the Company, net of 
offering expenses, were approximately $1.4 million.  The proceeds from the 
sale of common stock were used to retire the Company's revolving line of 
credit, prepay Subordinated Debt, and retire indebtedness.  The balance of 
the proceeds will be used to finance new store openings and additional growth.

Prior to November 28, 1997, the Company elected to be treated for federal and
state income tax purposes as an S Corporation under the Internal Revenue Code of
1986, as amended, and comparable state tax laws.  For the purpose of discussion
and analysis, the Company has presented a pro forma tax provision and pro forma
net income.  These pro forma amounts represent what the income tax provision and
the net income would have been if the Company had been a C Corporation and thus
was subject to Federal income taxation for the entire period.  This pro forma
provision is computed using a combined Federal and state income tax rate of 
40% for 1997.

Total revenue consists of Company-owned store sales and franchise revenues.
Franchise revenues are generated from royalties received on sales, generally 4%
of the store's sales, and initial franchise fees, which are recognized at the
time the franchisee signs the lease for the

<PAGE>

store.  Company-owned stores enter the comparable store sales base at the
beginning of their 13th month of operations.  Stores in which retail square
footage is increased more than 50%, or stores that are relocated, are no longer
included in the comparable store sales base until 12 months have passed.  Cost
of goods sold includes the direct cost of merchandise, plus handling and
distribution, coupon costs, and certain occupancy costs.  Store operating
expenses include all costs incurred at the store level, such as advertising,
credit card processing fees, and store payroll.  General and administrative
expenses include corporate administrative expense for Company-owned stores and
expenses relating to franchising.  Franchise expenses are primarily payroll,
legal, travel, and advertising.


RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

THREE MONTHS ENDED MAY 1, 1998, COMPARED TO THREE MONTHS ENDED MAY 2, 1997

REVENUE.  Company-owned store sales increased 11.9% to $12.2 million for the
three months ended May 1, 1998, from $10.9 million for the comparable period of
fiscal 1997.  Of this increase, approximately $10.6 million is attributable to
comparable store sales and approximately $1.6 million is attributable to new and
remodeled Company-owned stores.  Stores open in the first quarter of fiscal 1997
had a 3.4% same store sales increase for the first quarter of fiscal 1998.
During first quarter of 1998, the Company opened two new company-owned stores,
purchased one franchise store, and closed one store, increasing the total number
of Company-owned stores to 75 as of May 1, 1998.  This compares to 67
Company-owned stores as of May 2, 1997.

Franchise revenue increased 30.3% to $303,000 for the three months ended May 
1, 1998, from $233,000 for the comparable period of fiscal 1997.  Initial 
franchise fees increased due to an increase in franchise store openings in 
the three months ended May 1, 1998.  The increase in initial franchise fees 
was augmented by increased royalty payments resulting from higher sales in 
the franchise stores.  The Company opened three new franchise stores, 
purchased one of the franchise stores, and closed one franchise store, 
increasing the total number of franchise stores to 52, as of May 1, 1998.  
This compares to 49 franchise stores as of May 2, 1997.

COST OF GOODS SOLD.  Cost of goods sold for the three months ended May 1, 1998,
was $8.5 million, or 69.3% of Company-owned stores revenue, as compared to $7.5
million, or 68.9% of Company-owned stores revenues, for the comparable period of
fiscal 1997.  The increase as a percentage of Company-owned store revenues was
primarily attributable to increasing occupancy costs.

STORE OPERATING EXPENSES.  Store expenses for the three months ended May 1, 
1998 were $3.2 million, or 26.1% of Company-owned store revenue, as compared 
to $2.6 million, or 23.6% of Company-owned store revenue, for the comparable 
period of fiscal 1997.  Over 80% of the variance is due to tight labor 
markets and continued increases in the average hourly compensation.  The 
balance of the variance is due to expense timing differences which should 
reverse later in the year.  The

<PAGE>

Company believes that the impact of the Year 2000 issues will not be 
material, because its mission critical operations appear to be Year 2000 
compliant. Management has determined that any additional modifications will 
not have a material impact on its business, operations, or financial 
condition.

GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES.  General and administrative expenses for 
the three months ended May 1, 1998 were $1.7 million as compared to $1.3 
million in the prior year period.  The increase was primarily attributable to 
the increase in senior management positions and additional lease expense on 
new cash registers.

INTEREST EXPENSE.  Interest expense decreased 88.8% to $27,000, or .2% of total
revenue for the three months ended May 1, 1998 from $241,000, or 2.2% for the
comparable period of fiscal 1997.  This is the result of using the proceeds of
the initial public offering to repay bank debt.  Interest rates have been
stable.

NET INCOME (LOSS).  As a result of the factors discussed above, net loss 
increased 90.7% to $528,000, or 4.3% of total revenue for the three months 
ended May 1, 1998, from a proforma net loss of $277,000, or 2.5% of total 
revenue for the comparable period of fiscal 1997.  Pro forma net income for 
the three months ended May 2, 1997 includes a provision for federal and state 
income taxes.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Company's primary capital requirements are for ongoing operations,
principally inventory, and capital improvements to support the opening of new
Company-owned stores and the remodeling of existing Company-owned stores.
Historically, the Company's primary sources of liquidity have been met by cash
from operations, payment terms from vendors, and borrowing under its revolving
line of credit and the Subordinated Notes.

At May 1, 1998 and January 30, 1998, the Company's working capital was $8.2 
million and $9.4 million respectively.  Cash provided by (used in) operating 
activities for the first three months of fiscal 1998 and fiscal 1997 was 
($189,000) and $281,000, respectively.

At May 1, 1998, and January 30, 1998, the Company's accounts payable were $4.3
million and $3.0 million, respectively.  The increase in accounts payable was
primarily attributable to increased merchandise inventory.  Historically, the
amount of the Company's obsolete inventory has been immaterial.

Net cash used in investing activities for the first three months of fiscal 1998
and the comparable period of fiscal 1997 was $1.0 million and $545,000,
respectively.

Net cash used in financing activities during the first three months of fiscal 
1998 was $90,000. Net cash provided by financing activities during the first 
three months of fiscal 1997 was $297,000.  The Company had no amounts 
outstanding at May 1, 1998, or January 30, 1998, under its existing line of 
credit.  In November, 1997, the Company paid its revolving credit facility in 
full from the proceeds of its initial public offering.  The credit facility 
expires on May 31, 1999.

SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

The Company purchased one of its franchise stores in Denver, Colorado on May 29,
1998.

 
USE OF INITIAL PUBLIC OFFERING PROCEEDS

On November 25, 1997 the Company commenced an initial public offering of
1,778,000 shares of its common stock, par value $.01 per share in the United
States.  The Company's registration statement on Form S-1 (Registration No.
333-36911) with respect to the Offering was declared effective by the Securities
and Exchange Commission on November 20, 1997.  All 1,778,000 shares were offered
and sold by the Company.  As part of the offering, the Company and a Selling
Shareholder granted to the underwriters an over-allotment option to purchase up
to an additional 266,700 shares of common stock.  The offering terminated on
November 25, 1997.  On December 22, 1997, the underwriters exercised the
over-allotment, purchasing 207,800 shares of common stock from the Company.  The
offering price of the 1,985,600 shares of common stock (including the
over-allotment) was $7.50 per share.  The proceeds to the Company, after
deduction of the underwriting discount and expenses associated with the
Offering, were $13.2 million.

During the period from November 28, 1997, through December 30, 1997, the
aggregate amount of expenses incurred by the Company in connection with the
issuance and distribution of the shares of common stock offered and sold in the
offering, including the underwriter's over-allotment, was approximately $1.6
million.  This includes underwriting discounts and commissions (of approximately
$1.0 million) and expenses paid for accounting, legal, printing, and other
expenses.

The sole underwriter for the offering was Dain Rauscher Incorporated f/k/a Dain 
Bosworth Incorporated ("Dain") .  As sole underwriter for the offering, 
Dain received all of the underwriting commissions and discounts paid by the 
Company.

During the period from November 28, 1997, through May 1, 1998, the net
proceeds of the offering have been applied as follows:  (i) to repay borrowings
outstanding under the Company's revolving credit facility in the amount of $5.8
million, (ii) to prepay the 10% Subordinated Notes due November 30, 2004 in the
amount of $2.1 million, and (iii) to repay shareholder notes in the amount of
$2.1 million to Yale T. Dolginow and Brent D. Schlosser.  The remaining $3.2
million will be used for other general corporate purposes.
