------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1. ORGANIZATION, BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND BUSINESS Organization and Basis of Presentation American Pad & Paper Company (the "Company") was incorporated on June 2, 1992 as a holding company to acquire all of the outstanding stock of Ampad Corporation ("Ampad"), the surviving entity from the merger between Ampad Acquisition Corporation and Ampad. The Company had no operations through July 31, 1992. All of the Company's operations are conducted through American Pad & Paper Company of Delaware, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries. The financial statements of the Company present the accounts and operations of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. Additionally, the consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Notepad Funding Corporation, a special purpose corporation utilized in the accounts receivable facility. All significant intercompany balances have been eliminated. Certain prior and current year amounts have been reclassified for comparative purposes. Business The Company is one of the largest manufacturers and marketers of paper-based office products (excluding computer forms and copy paper) in North America. It offers a broad assortment of products through two complementary businesses: Ampad (writing pads, file folders and other paper-based office products) and Williamhouse (envelopes). The Company's products are distributed through large mass merchant retailers, office product superstores, warehouse clubs, major contract stationers, office products wholesalers, independent dealers and merchants. Substantially all sales are to customers within the United States. Interim Financial Information The accompanying interim financial statements are unaudited. Certain information and disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted, although the Company believes the disclosures included herein are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. These interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's financial statements for the year ended December 31, 1995. The accompanying interim financial statements contain all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of the Company's financial position at June 30, 1996 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the six month periods ended June 30, 1996 and 1995. The results of operations for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of results of the full fiscal year. 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Significant accounting policies followed in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements are as follows: Earnings per share Given the changes in the Company's capital structure to be effected in connection with the initial public offering of the Company's common stock completed on July 8, 1996, historical earnings per common share amounts are not presented in the consolidated financial statements as they are not considered to be meaningful. Pro forma earnings per share is presented and reflects conversion of the preferred stock into common stock for the same periods outstanding as the underlying common stock on which the preferred stock was issued. The pro forma weighted average shares outstanding gives effect to the 8.1192-for-one stock split and has been adjusted to reflect as outstanding, using the treasury stock method at the initial public offering price, all shares issuable upon the exercise of stock options granted subsequent to April 25, 1995 (one year prior to the initial public offering filing date pursuant to the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules). 5 Pro Forma Equity Presentation Pro forma stockholders' equity as of June 30, 1996 is presented to reflect, upon the closing of the initial public offering of the Company's common stock, the effect of the 8.1192-for-one stock split and the conversion of the preferred stock into common stock at a conversion rate based on an initial public offering price of $15.00 per share. The pro forma stockholders' equity does not reflect the net offering proceeds. 3. SIGNIFICANT TRANSACTIONS Niagara Envelope Company, Inc. Effective June 28, 1996, the Company acquired the stock of Niagara Envelope Company, Inc. ("Niagara"). This acquisition was accounted for under the purchase method of accounting. Accordingly, the aggregate acquisition cost was allocated to the net assets acquired based on the fair value of such net assets in accordance with Accounting Principles Board Opinion (APB) No. 16. The aggregate acquisition costs totaled $47,647 and consisted of cash of $44,620 and direct acquisition costs of $3,027. Additionally, the company paid $5,000 at closing under a one-year consulting services agreement. The Company principally financed the acquisition through proceeds from the sale of the Regency division described below. The aggregate acquisition cost has been preliminary allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed as follows: cash and restricted cash of $1,141, accounts receivable of $10,230, inventories of $12,788, prepaid and other assets of $1,519, management services agreement of $5,000, property and equipment of $25,113, deferred income tax liability of $1,992, accounts payable $5,828, accrued expenses $9,996, other noncurrent liabilities of $693 and assumed debt of $3,900. The aggregate acquisition costs exceeded fair market value of the net assets acquired by $19,265. Accordingly, goodwill was recorded in accordance with APB No. 16 and is being amortized over 40 years. The operating results of this acquisition are not included in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements. WR Acquisition, Inc./Williamhouse-Regency The Company acquired WR Acquisition, Inc. ("WR") and its wholly-owned subsidiary Williamhouse-Regency of Delaware, Inc. ("Williamhouse") (later renamed American Pad & Paper Company of Delaware, Inc.) through a merger transaction effective October 31, 1995. The transaction was accounted for under the purchase method of accounting. Accordingly, the aggregate acquisition cost was allocated to the net assets acquired based on the fair market value of such net assets in accordance with APB No. 16. The aggregate acquisition cost totaled $147,853 and consisted of cash of $140,000 and direct acquisition costs of $7,853. The acquisition was entirely financed through the Company's bank credit agreement (the "Bank Credit Agreement") and an off-balance sheet accounts receivable facility. The aggregate acquisition costs were allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed as follows: accounts receivable of $39,174; inventories of $49,496; prepaid expenses and other assets of $8,699; net assets held for sale of $40,851; property and equipment of $88,688; identifiable intangible assets of $37,900; deferred income tax liability of $27,644; accounts payable of $17,518; accrued expenses of $36,482; noncurrent liabilities of $2,019 and assumed debt of $152,905. The aggregate acquisition costs exceeded fair market value of the net assets acquired by $119,613. Accordingly, goodwill was recorded in accordance with APB No. 16 and is being amortized over 40 years. The operating results have been included in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements since the date of acquisition. The businesses acquired include the Williamhouse division, a manufacturer of a wide range of mill branded, specialty and commodity envelopes; and the Regency division, which provides custom imprinting services. The Regency personalized stationery and invitations division (the "Personalizing Division") acquired in the acquisition was identified by the Company's management at the date of acquisition as a nonstrategic asset held for sale. The purchase price allocated to the net assets acquired included the expected proceeds from sale plus the net cash flows expected to be generated from the Personalizing Division from date of acquisition through the expected date of sale (the holding period), offset by interest expense incurred during the holding period on debt incurred to finance the purchase of the Personalizing Division. On June 27, 1996, the Personalizing Division was sold for net proceeds of $51,807, subject to certain post-closing purchase price adjustments. The net proceeds from the sale exceeded the carrying amount of the asset held for sale at the date of sale by $3,664. As such, the preliminary purchase price allocation was adjusted resulting in a $3,664 reduction to goodwill. During the three month period and the six month period ended June 30, 1996, the Personalizing Division had operating income of $1,752 and $2,369 respectively, and interest carrying costs of $942 and $1,884, respectively, which have been excluded from the statement of operations and included as adjustments to the carrying amount of the net assets held for sale through the date of sale. 6 Globe-Weis Effective August 16, 1995, the Company acquired the inventories and certain equipment of the file folder and hanging file folder product lines of Globe-Weis's ("Globe") office products division from Globe's parent. For financial reporting purposes, this acquisition was accounted for under the purchase method of accounting. Accordingly, the aggregate acquisition cost was allocated to the net assets acquired based on the fair value of such net assets in accordance with APB No. 16. The aggregate acquisition costs totaled $19,958 and consisted of cash of $6,911, notes issued to the seller of $10,958 and direct acquisition and financing costs of $2,089. The Company principally financed the acquisition through its financing arrangement with a commercial lender and notes issued to the seller. The allocation of the aggregate acquisition costs was as follows: inventories of $12,848, equipment of $5,445, and debt issuance costs of $1,665. The operating results of this acquisition have been included in the accompanying consolidated financial statements since the date of acquisition. Initial Public Offering Effective July 8, 1996, the Company completed an initial public offering (the "Offering") of 12,500,000 shares of common stock. The net proceeds to the Company from the Offering were $176.8 million. The Company used such proceeds to (i) repay $95.8 million on the indebtedness incurred under the Bank Credit Agreement, (ii) redeem $70 million aggregate principal amount of the 13% Senior Subordinated Notes (the "Notes") from the holders thereof on a pro rata basis, (iii) pay $7.7 million in redemption premiums on the Notes and (iv) pay approximately $3.3 million in fees associated with the Offering. New Bank Credit Agreement Contemporaneously with the Offering, the Company refinanced and retired all remaining indebtedness under the Bank Credit Agreement with the proceeds of the loans under a new bank credit agreement (the "New Bank Credit Agreement"). As a result of the refinancing, effective July 8, 1996, the Company borrowed $162 million in revolving loans and $6.5 million in Swingline loans. The proceeds of these loans was used to (i) pay off the remaining $145 million in Term Loans, $5 million in revolver loans and $7.7 million in swingline loans outstanding under the existing Bank Credit Agreement and (ii) pay approximately $8.6 million in fees associated with the New Bank Credit Agreement. The New Bank Credit Agreement provides a revolving credit facility of $300 million. As a result of the New Bank Credit Agreement, the Company's effective interest rate under its senior credit facility was reduced by approximately 189 basis points contemporaneously with the Offering. The following summary presents the results of operations for the six months ended June 30, 1995 and 1996, on an unaudited pro forma basis, as if the Niagara, Williamhouse and Globe acquisitions and the initial public offering and the new bank credit agreement had occurred as of January 1, 1995 (with appropriate adjustments for amortization of intangible assets, interest expense, elimination of duplicate selling and administrative expenses and the related income tax effects). The pro forma operating results are for illustrative purposes only and do not purport to be indicative of the actual results which would have occurred had the transactions been consummated as of those earlier dates, nor are they indicative of results of operations which may occur in the future.

At June 30, 1996, $25 million of receivables were sold and are excluded from receivables in the accompanying balance sheets. The full amount of the allowance for doubtful accounts has been retained because the Company has retained substantially the same risk of credit loss as if the receivables had not been sold through the recourse provision of the receivable sale agreement. Under the agreement, the maximum amount of the purchaser's investment is subject to change based on the level of eligible receivables and restrictions on concentrations of receivables. 5.

CONDENSED CONSOLIDATING FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF GUARANTOR SUBSIDIARIES The 13% Senior Subordinated Notes are guaranteed by substantially all of the subsidiaries of American Pad & Paper Company of Delaware, Inc. ("Delaware"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company and formerly known as Williamhouse-Regency of Delaware, Inc. The subsidiary guarantees are full, unconditional and joint and several. Each of the guarantor subsidiaries are wholly-owned. The Company is not a guarantor of the Notes. Separate financial statements of the guarantor subsidiaries are not presented because management has determined that they would not be material to investors. However, condensed consolidating financial information as of December 31, 1995 and June 30, 1996 and for the three and six months ended June 30, 1996 are presented.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS RESULTS OF OPERATIONS THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1996 COMPARED TO THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1995 Net sales for the three months ended June 30, 1996 increased by $69.3 million, or 155%, to $114.1 million from $44.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 1995. Of this net sales increase, $59.5 million is related to the acquisition of Williamhouse and $12.9 million is related to the acquisition of the Globe-Weis. Ampad division net sales decreased by $3.1 million in the second quarter of 1996 compared to the unusually strong second quarter of 1995. The strong 1995 second quarter was due to certain of the Company's customers increasing inventory levels in anticipation of supply shortages. Gross profit for the three months ended June 30, 1996 increased by $17 million, or 215%, to $24.9 million from $7.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 1995. Approximately $16.3 million of the increase in gross profit is attributable to the acquisition of Williamhouse. Gross profit margin increased to 21.8% for the three months ended June 30, 1996 from 17.6% for the three months ended June 30, 1995. The increase in gross profit margin is primarily attributable to higher margins of the Williamhouse division. SG&A expenses for the three months ended June 30, 1996 increased $8.9 million, or 318%, to $11.7 from $2.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 1995. Approximately $7.8 million is attributable to the acquisition of Williamhouse and $1.1 million to amortization of goodwill and intangibles related to the acquisitions. Interest expense for the three months ended June 30, 1996 increased $10.4 million to $12.5 million from $2.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 1995. The increase is attributable primarily to higher debt related to the acquisitions. The income tax provision for the three month period ended June 30, 1996 reflects an effective tax rate of 43.1% versus an effective tax rate of 38.3% for the three month period ended June 30, 1995. The increase is attributable primarily to the nondeductible goodwill amortization resulting from the Williamhouse acquisition. Extraordinary item representing an after tax loss on extinguishment of debt of $1.3 million ($2.3 million pretax) was recognized as a result of the write off of unamortized deferred financing costs. SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1996 COMPARED TO SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1995 Net sales for the six months ended June 30, 1996 increased by $142.0 million, or 154%, to $234.2 million from $92.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 1995. Of this net sales increase, $122.7 million is related to the acquisition of Williamhouse and $28.1 million is related to the acquisition of Globe-Weis. Ampad division net sales decreased by $8.8 million in the first half of 1996 compared to the unusually strong first half of 1995. The strong 1995 first half was due to certain of the Company's customers increasing inventory levels in anticipation of supply shortages. Gross profit for the six months ended June 30, 1996 increased by $35.3 million, or 267%, to $48.5 million from $13.2 million for the six months ended June 30 1995. Approximately $31.8 million of the increase in gross profit is attributable to the acquisition of Williamhouse. Gross profit margin increased to 20.7% for the six months ended June 30, 1996 from 14.3% for the six months ended June 30, 1995. The increase in gross profit margin is primarily attributable to higher margins of the Williamhouse division. SG&A expenses for the six months ended June 30, 1996 increased $17.2 million, or 307%, to $22.8 from $5.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 1995. Approximately $15.1 million is attributable to the acquisition of Williamhouse and $2.1 million to amortization of goodwill and intangibles related to the acquisitions. 15 Interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 1996 increased $21.2 million to $25.0 million from $3.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 1995. The increase is attributable primarily to higher debt related to the acquisitions. The income tax provision for the six month period ended June 30, 1996 reflects an effective tax rate of 43.2% versus an effective tax rate of 38.3% for the six month period ended June 30, 1995. The increase is attributable primarily to the nondeductible goodwill amortization resulting from the Acquisition. Extraordinary item representing an after tax loss on extinguishment of debt of $1.3 million ($2.3 million pretax) was recognized as a result of the write off of unamortized deferred financing costs. The first half of 1996 may not be indicative of future anticipated operating results due to the Company's significant acquisition activity. See Note 3 in Item 1. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES Net cash provided by operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 1996 was $14.5 million compared to a use of cash of $16.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 1995. Cash used in investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 1996 and 1995 was $10.9 million and $.7 million, respectively. The use of cash for the six months ended June 30, 1996 was principally due to the Niagara acquisition ($52.4 million) and purchases of equipment ($4.8 million), offset by proceeds from the sale of the Personalizing Division ($47.9 million). The use of cash for the six months ended June 30, 1995 was primarily due to purchases of equipment. Cash used in financing activities six months ended June 30, 1996 was $18.8 million primarily due to refinancing of the $45 million accounts receivable facility with a new $60 million accounts receivable facility. In connection with this refinancing the Company received $35 million from the New Bank Credit Agreement and repaid the $45 million under the existing Bank Credit Agreement. Additionally, the Company repaid $10 million under the new facility with proceeds from the sale of the Personalizing Division. Effective July 8, 1996, the Company completed the Offering of 12,500,000 shares of common stock. The net proceeds to the Company from the Offering were $176.8 million. The Company used proceeds to (i) repay $95.8 million on the indebtedness incurred under the Bank Credit Agreement, (ii) redeem $70 million aggregate principal amount of the Notes (iii) pay $7.7 million in redemption premiums on the Notes and (iv) pay approximately $3.3 million in fees associated with the Offering. Contemporaneously with the Offering, the Company refinanced and retired all remaining indebtedness under the Bank Credit Agreement with the proceeds of the loans under the New Bank Credit Agreement. As a result of the refinancing, effective July 8, 1996, the Company borrowed $162 million in revolving loans and $6.5 million in Swingline loans. The proceeds of these loans were used to (i) pay off the remaining $145 million in Term Loans, $5 million in revolver loans and $7.7 million in swingline loans outstanding under the Bank Credit Agreement and (ii) pay approximately $8.6 million in fees associated with the New Bank Credit Agreement. The New Bank Credit Agreement provides a revolving credit facility of $300 million subject to the following principal terms: Loans made under the New Bank Credit Agreement bear interest at a rate per annum equal to, at the Company's option, (i) the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin or (ii) the LIBOR Rate plus the Applicable Margin (as each term is defined in the New Bank Credit Agreement). The Applicable Margin varies from 0% to 1.75%, based on the Company's level of debt as compared to earnings ("Leverage Ratio"). The Company's margin is 1.50%. Availability under the New Bank Credit Agreement is subject to an unused Commitment Fee which, like the Applicable Margin, varies from .3% to .5% based on the Company's Leverage Ratio. The Company's current rate is .45%. Availability under the New Bank Credit Agreement will be reduced to the extent of the net proceeds of a sale of assets by the Company, the net proceeds of an issuance of debt by the Company or 50% of the net proceeds of an issuance of equity by the Company. Availability will also be reduced by $50 million in 1999 and $50 million in 2000. The New Bank Credit Agreement will terminate in 2001. The Company will be permitted to make acquisitions under the New Bank Credit Agreement up to an aggregate of $25 million without consent of the Agent (as defined) and up to $50 million if, on a pro forma basis giving effect to such acquisition, the Company's Leverage Ratio is less than 3.0:1.0. As a result of the New Bank Credit Agreement, the Company's effective interest rate under its senior credit facility will be reduced by 189 basis points contemporaneously with the Offering. 16 On May 29, 1996, the Company refinanced its $45 million accounts receivable facility with a new $60 million accounts receivable facility. Under the new facility the Company may sell, on a revolving basis, an undivided interest in a designated pool of trade accounts receivable. At June 30, 1996, $25 million of accounts receivable were sold under the program. The agreement expires in 2000. Management believes that based on current levels of operations and anticipated internal growth, cash flow from operations, together with other available sources of funds including borrowings under the New Bank Credit Agreement and available cash on hand at June 30, 1996 of $3.1million, will be adequate for the foreseeable future to make required payments of principal and interest on the Company's indebtedness, to fund anticipated capital expenditures and working capital requirements, including the aforementioned restructuring costs, and to enable the Company and its subsidiaries to comply with the terms of their debt agreements. However, actual capital requirements may change, particularly as a result of any acquisitions which the Company may make. The ability of the Company to meet its debt service obligations and reduce its total debt will be dependent, however, upon the future performance of the Company and its subsidiaries which, in turn, will be subject to general economic conditions and to financial, business and other factors, including factors beyond the Company's control. A portion of the consolidated debt of the Company bears interest at floating rates; therefore, its financial condition is and will continue to be affected by changes in prevailing interest rates. The Company has entered into an interest rate protection agreement to minimize the impact from a rise in interest rates. PART II. OTHER INFORMATION ITEM 4.
