thank you for joining us today. During today's conference
NICHOLAUS (INDISCERNIBLE) call we will cover the following salient points.

DAVID FRYE 1. Q3 was in line with the low end of previously provided

call estimate. This is the ninth quarter in a row where the
AL (INDISCERNIBLE) EBITDA generated by our operations has shown year-over-year
Seneca Capital improvement.

MARK COOPER 2. We continue to make progress in our two key measurements.
Wells Capital - Analyst We've increased return on capital employed on a
year-over-year basis, and we increased market share in
particular in our commercial print product lines.

3. The context in which we suggest you review our results
and what this means for the future and finally, our guidance
for the full year results.

Our markets are getting stronger. This is good. Our
challenge is to accelerate the realization of the operating
leverage that we have built into our operations as we have
rationalized them over the past two to three years.

I will now pass the call over to Michel for the required
Safe Harbor comments and his review of the financial reports
attached to the press release. Michel.

Thank you, Paul. And again, good day ladies and gentlemen.

traditional business shrunk while expenses did not. We are
going to fix this one way or another. Better sales or less
expenses.

Now to the immediate future. Our market is stabilizing and
now our management can concentrate on making their companies
stronger. A month ago in anticipation of finalizing our 2005
budget, our managers embarked on an extensive and rigorous
process of benchmarking their results with their comparable
locations whose results are significantly greater. I am very
pleased with their progress and attitude. Many firms analyze
benchmarking with the view to prove I am different. Our
managers are analyzing benchmarking with a view to identify
how I can be better.

Almost one-third of our locations are profit leaders whose
results exceed our cost of capital. We are working to unlock
significant shareholder value that is not on our balance
sheet. In 2004 we invested $10 million in two acquisitions
and as anticipated will return little in 2004. In 2005 we
expect a 40 to 50% return as our 2004 integration plans are
fully implemented. So let me summarize the answer to the
question how will earnings grow.

We've been growing at 6% a year in a market more difficult
than what is forecasted for 2005. We've invested $10 million
in incremental sales expenses, and we have not seen an
appropriate increase in sales. This will be fixed in 2005.
We expect to unlock significant shareholder value and an
extensive and rigorous process of benchmarking. At our
February conference call we will report on the results of
this process when we provide our 2005 guidance.

We expect significant returns from our 2004 acquisitions in
2005 and beyond, and leverage should drive every 1% increase
in EBITDA to a 5% increase in shareholder value. Cash flow
paying down debt can grow shareholder value even further.
This is why we think Cenveo is an excellent investment. Now
let's turn to our guidance.

Previously I told you that I expected the full year 2004
EBITDA would be in the range of $135 to $142 million. With
the first three quarters behind us, and what we are seeing
for the fourth quarter, I expect that the full year will
come in at the bottom end of the range. Sales will continue
to improve and grow whereas at this time the pressure on
resale segment margins will continue to have a negative
impact on our expectations.

As I said at the beginning, although this slightly below
where we expected to be, we look upon 2004 positively and as
being a sound foundation for continued growth in 2005. So
let me conclude. Q3 was the ninth consecutive quarter with
year-over-year EBITDA growth. In Q3 we continue to increase
market share and return on

In terms of generalities, could you say that maybe half the

The next question is from David Frye from Stanfield Capital. So I see. So when you mentioned the two to three times
industry growth, that was for your one-stop shopping
- ------------------------------------------------------------ segment, not for the commercial print overall?
DAVID FRYE - STANFIELD CAPITAL - ANALYST
------------------------------------------------------------
I was hoping to explore a little bit more the 3 to 4% PAUL REILLY - CENVEO, INC. - CHAIRMAN, PRESIDENT & CEO
pricing pressure. I thought I heard you say that industry
volumes in that segment and in commercial were up about 3%, It was commercial print overall, and we think our growth was
and you were two or three times that on a volume growth. So in the 8 to 9% range real terms.
I am trying to reconcile in my own mind you are growing

We don't have data for 2004, but we do know from looking at
the prior two years of 2003 and 2002 that the pricing

You also mentioned your high leverage as being maybe a ------------------------------------------------------------

- ------------------------------------------------------------
PAUL REILLY - CENVEO, INC. - CHAIRMAN, PRESIDENT & CEO

The, the, the it is after everything. We look at it as the
ability to pay down debt.

- ------------------------------------------------------------
MARK COOPER - WELLS CAPITAL - ANALYST

So for example right now you are at -- for the year to date
you are at a $30 million cash deficit?

- ------------------------------------------------------------
PAUL REILLY - CENVEO, INC. - CHAIRMAN, PRESIDENT & CEO

Correct.

- ------------------------------------------------------------
MARK COOPER - WELLS CAPITAL - ANALYST

And you expect that $30 million for this year?

- ------------------------------------------------------------
PAUL REILLY - CENVEO, INC. - CHAIRMAN, PRESIDENT & CEO

Let me go through the math -- at the beginning of the year
we announced that we would have $35 million was our
objective. Since then, we have made two decisions which have
reduced that. We've spent $20 million in refinancing our
bonds, which that's how we pushed out that we have no
principal payments, no significant principal payments until
2012. And then we had $10 million we put into acquisitions.
So we are then saying that we would expect cash this year to
be reduced by $5 million. Michel in his remarks, this is
based on the investments that we have made in the office
products segment, and incremental sales he said we may miss
that up to $10 million. What we are really saying is that we
believe this year not $35 million, but our ability to pay
down debt will be in the $25 million range.
