FINANCIAL INFORMATION "SAFE HARBOR" STATEMENT UNDER THE PRIVATE SECURITIES LITIGATION REFORM ACT OF 1995 From time to time, Printpack, Inc. ("Printpack" or the "Company") makes oral and written statements that may constitute "forward-looking statements" (rather than historical facts) as defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 (the "Act") or by the SEC in its rules, regulations and releases. The Company desires to take advantage of the "safe harbor" provisions in the Act for forward-looking statements made from time to time, including, but not limited to, the forward-looking statements made in this Report on Form 10-Q (the "Report"), as well as those made in other filings with the SEC. Forward-looking statements contained in this Report are based on management's current plans and expectations and are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those described in the forward-looking statements. In the preparation of this Report, where such forward-looking statements appear, the Company has sought to accompany such statements with meaningful cautionary statements identifying important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those described in the forward-looking statements. Such factors include, but are not limited to: the level of consumer spending for consumer nondurable goods that use packaging made by the Company; fluctuations in raw material prices; possible environmental matters; competition; recent net losses resulting from the acquisition of JR Flexible (as defined herein); slowed growth in end user markets and pricing pressures; the Company's ability to complete the implementation of its Year 2000 program on a timely basis; the ability of the Company's suppliers, vendors, customers and other third parties on which the Company relies to be Year 2000 ready; changes in economic conditions generally, both domestic and international; and possible implementation of future cost saving measures which could require the Company to take charges against earnings, including cash and non-cash charges. The preceding list of risks and uncertainties, however, is not intended to be exhaustive, and should be read in conjunction with other cautionary statements made herein and in the Company's other publicly filed reports and its Form S-1 Registration Statement (File No. 333-13727), and all amendments thereto (the "Registration Statement"), including, but not limited to, the "Risk Factors" set forth in the Registration Statement. The Company does not have, and expressly disclaims, any obligation to release publicly any updates or any changes in the Company's expectations or any changes in events, conditions or circumstances on which any forward-looking statement is based. 2 4 ITEM 1.

BASIS OF PRESENTATION The accompanying unaudited interim financial statements of Printpack, Inc. ("Printpack" or the "Company") have been prepared by Company management and are presented on a basis in accordance with the accounting policies stated in the June 27, 1998 and June 28, 1997 financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the Notes to Financial Statements appearing therein. In the opinion of Printpack management, all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation of such financial statements have been included in the accompanying interim financial statements. The results of operations for the 13 week and 39 week periods ended March 27, 1999 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full fiscal year. The Company has adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income," as of the first quarter of fiscal 1999. SFAS No. 130 establishes new rules for the reporting and display of comprehensive income and its components. However, it has no impact on the Company's net income or shareholders' equity. Accumulated other comprehensive income presented on the accompanying consolidated condensed balance sheet as of March 27, 1999 consists of accumulated gains and losses arising from translating the financial statements of the Company's subsidiary operating in Mexico from the functional currency to the reporting currency. 2. NET ASSETS HELD FOR SALE In connection with the acquisition of certain operations from James River Corporation of Virginia's Flexible Packaging Business ("JR Flexible") as of August 22, 1996, the Company elected to close the San Leandro and Dayton plants acquired in the transaction. During the quarter ended September 26, 1998, the Company sold the San Leandro facility for approximately $3.6 million, net of selling expenses. The net assets of the remaining facility are recorded as Net Assets Held for Sale in the Company's balance sheets. The Company expects that these assets will be sold within the next twelve months and has therefore classified these items as current assets. Accruals related to the closure of this plant represent Company management's best estimate of the anticipated costs to be incurred. 3. INCOME TAXES Printpack's effective income tax benefit rate for the 39 weeks ended March 27, 1999 and March 28, 1998 was 23% and 36%, respectively. The decrease in the effective tax rate was primarily due to the establishment of a valuation allowance for a portion of the deferred tax assets related to taxable loss carryforwards in various state and foreign jurisdictions. 7 9 PRINTPACK, INC. NOTES TO UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) 4. INVENTORIES Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or current market value. Cost is determined using the last-in, first-out (LIFO) method. Inventories are summarized as follows:

5. CONTINGENCIES Printpack is subject to legal proceedings and other claims which arise in the ordinary course of business. In the opinion of management, the outcome of these actions will not materially affect the financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company. 6. DEBT On August 22, 1996, the Company created a wholly owned, bankruptcy remote, special purpose subsidiary, Flexible Funding Corp. ("Flexible Funding"), for the sole purpose of facilitating financing transactions for the Company. The Company contributed approximately $100,000 of trade receivables in exchange for the equity in Flexible Funding. Subsequently, Flexible Funding entered into a revolving line of credit facility with a bank (the "Facility"). The Facility allows Flexible Funding to draw a maximum of $50 million on the established line of credit through August 20, 2001, on a revolving basis, through note agreements bearing interest at a negotiated rate. The line of credit is collateralized by 100% of the trade receivables of Flexible Funding. At March 27, 1999 and June 27, 1998, the Company had $50 million and $42 million, respectively, of notes outstanding under the Facility, collateralized by approximately $74 million and $71 million, respectively, in trade receivables. 8 10 PRINTPACK, INC. ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS The following discussion and analysis of the results of operations of Printpack for the 39 weeks and for the 13 weeks ended March 27, 1999 is compared to the same time periods in fiscal 1998. The discussion and analysis of Printpack's financial condition compares its condition at March 27, 1999 to June 27, 1998. This Item contains certain forward-looking statements that reflect the Company's assessment of a number of risks and uncertainties. The Company's actual results could differ materially from the results anticipated in such forward-looking statements as a result of certain factors set forth in this Report. Where such forward-looking statements appear, the Company has sought to accompany such statements with meaningful cautionary statements identifying important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those described in the forward-looking statements. An additional statement made pursuant to the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and summarizing certain of the principal risks and uncertainties inherent in the Company's business is included in Part I of this Report under the caption "Safe Harbor Statement Under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995." RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Thirty-nine weeks ended March 27, 1999 compared to March 28, 1998 Net Sales. Net sales increased $2.6 million or 0.4% to $617.2 million in the fiscal 1999 period from $614.6 million in the fiscal 1998 period, primarily due to higher sales volumes which were partially offset by price changes to customers. Gross Margin. Cost of goods sold increased $2.5 million or 0.5% to $530.5 million in the fiscal 1999 period from $528.0 million in the fiscal 1998 period. Cost of goods sold as a percentage of net sales was 85.9% in both the fiscal 1999 and fiscal 1998 periods (the fiscal 1998 period includes the cost of a strike at the Greensburg, Indiana plant which occurred during the first quarter of fiscal 1998). Gross margin, consequently, increased $0.1 million or 0.2% to $86.7 million in the fiscal 1999 period from $86.6 million in the fiscal 1998 period. Operating Expenses. Selling, administrative and research and development expenses increased $0.8 million or 1.4% to $55.3 million in the fiscal 1999 period from $54.5 million in the fiscal 1998 period. The increase was primarily due to general price increases, partially offset by cost saving initiatives implemented during the third quarter of fiscal 1999. Selling, administrative and research and development expenses as a percentage of net sales increased slightly to 9.0% in the fiscal 1999 period from 8.9% in the fiscal 1998 period. Operating Income. Income from operations increased $0.1 million or 0.2% to $28.6 million in the fiscal 1999 period compared to $28.5 million in the fiscal 1998 period. The increase was due to higher gross margins, partially offset by higher selling, administrative and research and development expenses as described above. Other Income and Expense. Interest expense decreased $0.9 million or 2.4% to $37.6 million in the fiscal 1999 period from $38.5 million in the fiscal 1998 period. Although working capital requirements have caused the Company's total debt to increase as compared to June 27, 1998, interest expense has declined due to the short-term financing instruments available for use by the Company under its credit arrangements which carry a lower interest rate than the term loan which has declined during the same period through scheduled debt amortization payments. Employees. At March 27, 1999, the Company had approximately 3,600 employees, of which approximately 1,000 at five manufacturing facilities are covered by collective bargaining agreements. The Company considers relations with its employees to be generally good. 9 11 Thirteen weeks ended March 27, 1999 compared to March 28, 1998 Net Sales. Net sales increased $5.2 million or 2.5% to $212.6 million in the third quarter of fiscal 1999 from $207.4 million in the third quarter of fiscal 1998, primarily due to higher sales volumes which were partially offset by price changes to customers. Gross Margin. Cost of goods sold increased $7.6 million or 4.4% to $179.9 million in the third quarter of fiscal 1999 from $172.3 million in the third quarter of fiscal 1998. Cost of goods sold increased to 84.6% of net sales in the third quarter of fiscal 1999 from 83.1% in the third quarter of fiscal 1998. Gross margin, consequently, decreased $2.4 million or 6.8% to $32.7 million in the third quarter of fiscal 1999 from $35.1 million in the third quarter of fiscal 1998. Operating Expenses. Selling, administrative and research and development expenses decreased $0.4 million or 2.2% to $17.6 million in the third quarter of fiscal 1999 from $17.9 million in the third quarter of fiscal 1998. Selling, administrative and research and development expenses as a percentage of net sales decreased to 8.3% in the third quarter of fiscal 1999 from 8.6% in the third quarter of fiscal 1998, due to cost saving initiatives implemented during the third quarter of fiscal 1999. Operating Income. Income from operations decreased $1.8 million or 11.1% to $14.2 million in the third quarter of fiscal 1999 compared to $16.0 million in the third quarter of fiscal 1998. The decrease was due to lower gross margins partially offset by lower selling, administrative and research and development expenses as described above. Other Income and Expense. Interest expense decreased $0.3 million or 2.2% to $12.5 million in the third quarter of fiscal 1999 from $12.8 million in the third quarter of fiscal 1998 due to lower interest rates and decreased borrowings resulting from scheduled debt amortization payments. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES Cash provided by operating activities totaled $5.1 million in the first 39 weeks of fiscal 1999 compared to $43.7 million in the corresponding period of fiscal 1998. After adding back depreciation and amortization to the net loss, the Company's operations provided $34.6 million in cash in the first 39 weeks of fiscal 1999 compared to $31.9 million in the corresponding period of fiscal 1998. The Company used $29.5 million in cash, primarily for working capital increases, in the fiscal 1999 period, compared to $11.8 million provided in the corresponding period of fiscal 1998. Working capital requirements generally peak during January through March when sales volumes generally are lowest. Depreciation and amortization for the 39 weeks ended March 27, 1999 were $41.4 million compared to $37.9 million for the 39 weeks ended March 28, 1998. Capital expenditures were $25.2 million in the first 39 weeks of fiscal 1999 compared to $37.2 million in the corresponding period of fiscal 1998. Management estimates its maintenance capital expenditures for fiscal 1999 will be approximately $15 million and total capital expenditures will be approximately $40 million. The Company expects that its capital expenditures in subsequent years will be comparable. Cash provided by financing activities during the first 39 weeks of fiscal 1999 was approximately $34.8 million and was used primarily for working capital increases as well as to meet scheduled debt payments. Financing activities in the first 39 weeks of fiscal 1998 were negligible. Total outstanding debt at March 27, 1999 of approximately $518.6 million included $208.3 million of floating rate and $310.3 million of fixed rate obligations. At March 27, 1999 the Company had approximately $83 million available for borrowings under its credit agreements. The JR Flexible acquisition and associated financings consummated in the first quarter of fiscal 1997 changed the Company's financial condition by adding substantial indebtedness. During fiscal 1999, management has continued to integrate the acquired operations into the Company's existing business. The 10 12 Company experienced net losses because of the JR Flexible acquisition and the integration of the operations. As a result, shareholders' equity declined from a deficit of $5.9 million as of June 27, 1998 to a deficit of $12.3 million as of March 27, 1999. The Company's primary liquidity needs are for capital expenditures, debt service and working capital. The Company's primary sources of liquidity have been cash flows from operations and borrowings under bank credit facilities. The Company has used borrowings under the bank credit facilities to meet seasonal fluctuations in working capital requirements, which generally peak during January through March when sales volumes generally are lowest. Based upon current levels of operations, continued improvements in the acquired JR Flexible operations and continued cost saving measures, the Company believes that cash flow from operations, borrowings under the credit agreement, sales of accounts receivable under its receivables securitization facility and other sources of liquidity, will be adequate to meet the Company's anticipated requirements for working capital, capital expenditures, interest payments and scheduled principal payments for at least the next 12 months. There can be no assurance, however, that the Company's business will continue to generate cash flows from operations at or above current levels or that anticipated improvements in operations and cost savings will be realized. YEAR 2000 Many computer programs use only two digits to identify a year in a date field within the program (e.g., "98" or "02"). If not corrected, computer applications making calculations and comparisons in different centuries may cause inaccurate results, or fail by or at the Year 2000. These Year 2000 related issues are of particular importance to the Company. The Company depends upon its information technology ("IT") and non-IT systems (collectively the "Internal Systems") to conduct and manage the Company's business. The Company depends on its IT systems for administrative functions such as accounting, e-mail and telephone systems as well as in the day to day management of business functions such as production scheduling and order handling. Non-IT systems would include computer systems used to run manufacturing equipment as well as technology embedded in the manufacturing equipment itself. Year 2000 related issues may also adversely affect the operations and financial performance of one or more of the Company's customers or suppliers. The failure of the Company's Internal Systems, or of the Company's customers or suppliers, to be Year 2000 ready could have a material adverse effect on the Company's results of operations, financial position and cash flows. Other than utilities, the third parties on which the Company relies most heavily are its suppliers of raw materials, equipment and services and its customers. While the Company obtains its resources from a number of vendors and sells its products to a number of customers for a wide variety of applications, if a sufficient number of these vendors or customers experience Year 2000 problems that prevent or substantially impair their ability to continue to transact business with the Company as they currently do, the Company would be required to find alternative sources of these resources or customers for its products. The inability to find or a delay in finding such alternatives could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, results of operations or financial condition. The Company recognizes the significance of the Year 2000 problem and is executing a program to achieve Year 2000 readiness. The Company's Year 2000 program is supported by a Year 2000 Oversight Committee. The Oversight Committee was established to lead the readiness efforts for the Company and manage the overall progress of the project and is comprised of management and executive level employees representing all departments and disciplines of the Company. The Year 2000 program's purpose is to identify, evaluate and resolve potential Year 2000 issues related to the Company's Internal Systems and external relationships. The program includes the following key phases: 1. Identification of systems and applications that must be modified; 2. Evaluation of alternatives (modification, replacement or discontinuance); and 3. System conversion and implementation which include timely milestones and appropriate testing to ensure that the systems and applications are ready for the Year 2000. 11 13 The program also includes: 1. Projects to ensure that external customers, vendors and services are also Year 2000 ready; 2. The development of alternatives where necessary; 3. Interoperability testing with key organizations in the financial services industry; 4. Contingency planning in case the Company or any of its customers or suppliers are not Year 2000 ready on a timely basis. The Company's goal is to have its Internal Systems ready for the Year 2000 by July 1, 1999. This goal allows for six months of internal testing prior to the Year 2000. The Company's Year 2000 program is under way, and the Company expects to achieve its goal. IT systems are in the system conversion and implementation phase, which is expected to be completed during the fourth quarter of fiscal 1999. Identification of non-IT systems and applications that must be modified or replaced was substantially complete as of March 27, 1999. Evaluation of alternatives and the conversion and implementation phase are expected to be completed by the end of the fourth quarter of fiscal 1999 for all non-IT systems and applications that have been identified as non compliant. The Company also is currently in the process of developing a contingency plan related to both its Internal Systems and external relationships and expects to have a basic plan in place by the end of fiscal 1999. Management considers contingency planning to be an ongoing project and will continue to assess and revise the Company's contingency plans up to and beyond December 31, 1999 as necessary. The Company is currently using internal resources to address its Year 2000 issues. The majority of the Company's IT systems use packaged applications and have been updated or are in the process of being updated through support agreements with the manufacturers of such software. The additional systems not supported by vendors have been or will be modified internally or replaced in order to be Year 2000 compliant. Costs associated with the Year 2000 program are being expensed as incurred. Funding for the program is being provided through the Company's normal budget with no additional funding allocated to the Company's Information Systems department due to the Year 2000 issues. To date, the costs associated with the Company's Year 2000 program have not been material. Although the Company is unable at this time to estimate the future costs associated with its Year 2000 program, the Company does not believe that the amount to be spent will be material to the Company's results of operations, liquidity or capital resources. However, if the Company is required to hire and retain further computer programmers and other systems professionals to address its Year 2000 issues, or finds it necessary to replace certain of its other Internal Systems, it could experience increased overall costs at least through the year 2000 at rates above general inflation. The Company has identified its key suppliers of proprietary materials and services, equipment, utilities and transportation services, has contacted each of these suppliers regarding their plans for dealing with Year 2000 issues and received initial responses from substantially all of them. The Company continues to follow-up with suppliers to discuss their state of readiness for the Year 2000 and their plans for continued supply of materials and services to the Company. The Company is also inquiring of its major customers as to their preparations for the Year 2000 and any anticipated changes in their purchases from the Company related to this issue. Of the responses received to date, no issues have been identified by the Company related to anticipated changes in purchases by customers which would have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows. The Company has also been in contact with organizations in the financial services industry who provide services to the Company. The Company is currently and will continue to assess whether the services provided by these organizations will be Year 2000 ready. The Company plans to participate in interoperability testing with such organizations to ensure such services will be Year 2000 ready. Although the Company is not aware of any material operational or financial Year 2000 related issues, the Company cannot make any assurances that its Internal Systems will be Year 2000 ready on schedule, that the costs of its Year 2000 program will not become material or that the Company's contingency plans, when established, will be adequate. Further, the Company is currently unable to anticipate accurately the magnitude, 12 14 if any, of the Year 2000 related effect which may arise from the Company's customers and suppliers. If any such risks (either with respect to the Company or its customers or suppliers) materialize, the Company could experience material adverse consequences to its business which would likely have material adverse effects on the Company's results of operations, financial position and cash flows. The Company designates the information contained herein regarding the Company's Year 2000 program as "Year 2000 Readiness Disclosures" made pursuant to the Year 2000 Information and Readiness Disclosure Act. The estimates and conclusions related to the Company's Year 2000 program contain forward-looking statements and are based on management's best estimates of future events. Risks to completing the Year 2000 program include the availability of resources, the Company's ability to discover and correct the potential Year 2000 sensitive problems which could have a serious impact on specific systems, equipment or facilities, and the ability of suppliers and vendors and other third parties to bring their systems into Year 2000 compliance. ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK. The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the Notes to Unaudited Financial Statements contained herein, as well as the Notes to Financial Statements contained in the Company's Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 27, 1998. This Item contains certain forward-looking statements that reflect the Company's assessment of a number of risks and uncertainties. The Company's actual results could differ materially from the results anticipated in such forward-looking statements as a result of certain factors set forth in this Report. Where such forward-looking statements appear, the Company has sought to accompany such statements with meaningful cautionary statements identifying important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those described in the forward-looking statements. An additional statement made pursuant to the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and summarizing certain of the principal risks and uncertainties inherent in the Company's business is included in Part I of this Report under the caption "'Safe Harbor' Statement Under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995." INTEREST RATE RISK With respect to its credit facilities entered into for other than trading purposes, the Company is subject to market risk exposure related to changes in interest rates. The Company is the obligor on the following variable interest rate long-term debt instruments: (i) $128,000,000 (at March 27, 1999) secured senior notes to banks payable in quarterly installments of $6,000,000 each in fiscal 1999, $8,000,000 each in fiscal 2000, $10,000,000 each in fiscal 2001 and $12,500,000 each in fiscal 2002 (final installment due June 30, 2002), with an interest rate tied to LIBOR and payable quarterly; (ii) a $105,000,000 revolving credit facility with banks due in August 2002 with an interest rate tied to LIBOR and payable quarterly (at March 27, 1999, $25,000,000 was outstanding under this facility) and an interest rate on a subfacility tied to the Federal Funds rate (approximately $5,275,000 outstanding at March 27, 1999); and (iii) $50,000,000 (at March 27, 1999) outstanding under an accounts receivable securitization facility with a bank due in August 2002, with an interest rate tied to LIBOR and payable quarterly. The Company has also guaranteed the debt of Orflex Ltd., a joint venture with the OR Group, which totaled approximately $2,900,000 at March 27, 1999. This debt is subject to repayment requirements through a final maturity date of January 2005. The interest rate on such debt is tied to LIBOR. While changes in LIBOR and the Federal Funds rate would affect the cost of these funds in the future, the Company does not consider its current exposure to changes in such rates to be material, and the Company believes that the effect, if any, of reasonably possible near-term changes in interest rates on the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows would not be material. The carrying amounts of the Company's variable rate long-term debt approximate their fair values. At March 27, 1999, the Company's fixed interest rate long-term debt instruments included: (i) $200,000,000 in 10.625% unsecured senior subordinated notes payable in August 2006 with interest payable semi-annually; (ii) $100,000,000 in 9.875% unsecured senior notes payable in August 2004 with interest payable semi-annually; and (iii) $10,305,000 in 11% unsecured subordinated notes to shareholders payable in an installment of $3,422,000 in May 2005 and the remaining principal payable in May 2014 with interest payable annually. There is no material market risk related to the Company's fixed interest rate long-term debt. 13 15 FOREIGN CURRENCY RISK The Company's revenue derived from international operations is not material and, therefore, the risk related to foreign currency exchange rates is not material. INVESTMENT PORTFOLIO The Company does not use financial instruments for trading purposes. The Company invests its excess cash in short-term, highly liquid investments consisting primarily of overnight repurchase agreements. The market risk on such investments is minimal. Pursuant to a note arrangement which became effective in fiscal 1996, the Company has extended certain working capital loans to Orflex Ltd., a joint venture formed during fiscal 1995 between the Company and the OR Group. Such loans, which bear interest at the rate of LIBOR plus 2%, are payable upon demand by the Company. Advances related to such loans, including accrued interest, totaled approximately $5,400,000 at March 27, 1999. While changes in LIBOR would affect the funds received by the Company from such loans in the future, the Company believes that the effect, if any, of reasonably possible near-term changes in such interest rate on the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows would not be material. 14 16 PART II. OTHER INFORMATION ITEM 5. OTHER INFORMATION FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION The financial statements of the Company's subsidiary operating in Mexico have historically been measured using the dollar as the functional currency due to Mexico's economy being considered highly inflationary. Gains and losses arising from remeasuring these financial statements from the local currency to the functional currency are included in historical net income. As of December 27, 1998, Mexico's economy ceased being considered highly inflationary and the Mexican Peso became the functional currency of the financial statements of the Company's Mexican subsidiary. Accordingly, gains and losses arising from translating these financial statements from the functional currency to the reporting currency are included in equity on the March 27, 1999 consolidated balance sheet and as a component of other comprehensive income on the consolidated statement of operations for the period then ended.
