                                     PART I

ITEM 1. BUSINESS

COMPANY BACKGROUND

The Company is one of the world's leading producers of precision-engineered
products, specializing in the design and customization of consumable
image-transfer products for the graphic arts (printing) industry and consumable
fiber handling products for the textile industry. The Company consists of two
segments: the Image Transfer segment and the Textile Products segment. The Image
Transfer segment consists of the Transfer Media division and the Pressroom
Chemicals division. The Transfer Media division is the world's largest designer,
manufacturer and marketer of high-quality printing blankets and sleeves for use
in offset printing. The Company estimates that in 2002 it had the number one
market share in offset-printing blankets and sleeves in North America and
worldwide. The Company is one of the world's largest manufacturers and marketers
of sleeves for use in flexographic printing. The Pressroom Chemicals division is
a leading worldwide supplier of pressroom chemicals to the printing industry and
also manufactures the Kompac brand of automatic dampening systems for printing
presses. The Textile Products segment is one of the world's largest
manufacturers and marketers of precision engineered rubber cots, aprons and
other fabricated rubber fiber handling components sold to textile yarn spinners
worldwide.

Affiliates of GSC Partners and SG Capital Partners LLC own substantially all of
the common stock of the Company, with the Company's management holding the
balance of the common stock.

Effective December 31, 1998, the Company acquired Rotec Hulsensysteme GmbH
("Rotec"). Rotec is a world leader in sleeve technology, producing a wide array
of sleeves and rollers used in the flexographic printing process.

On September 30, 1999, the Company acquired the textile products operations of
Armstrong World Industries, Inc. ("TPO"). TPO is a leading manufacturer and
marketer of high-end precision engineered rubber cots and aprons sold to textile
yarn spinners worldwide and was a major competitor of Day's textile division.

On October 19, 1999, the Company acquired Varn International ("Varn" or
"Pressroom Chemicals"). Varn manufactures pressroom chemicals and dampening
systems for the printing industry.

See the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for more information on
business segments.

IMAGE TRANSFER

The Image Transfer segment specializes in selling consumable products to the
graphic arts (printing) industry, primarily those used in offset printing.
Offset is the primary printing process for long-run, high-speed applications,
such as the printing of magazines, annual reports, catalogs, direct mail and
newspapers. Flexographic and digital, two other printing processes, are
currently used primarily in short-run, lower speed applications, such as for
printing brochures and packaging material. The Company believes that
applications for image transfer products within flexographic and digital
printing processes will increase significantly and that advances in digital
technologies will complement offset



                                       3
<PAGE>

printing processes and will provide additional opportunities for consumable
products. It is generally expected that the demand for these processes will grow
rapidly and that they will be used for an increasing amount of printing jobs. If
these other technologies develop so that they compete effectively with offset
printing in the high-speed, long-run segment of the printing industry, and such
technologies are widely adopted, the business of Image Transfer could be
adversely affected. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to
effectively develop products for these technologies or to maintain its market
leadership if such processes replace offset printing to any significant extent.
The Company is developing blankets, sleeves and belts for these new printing
machine technologies in conjunction with the companies working on the printing
machine technologies. Due to the large number of offset printing presses
installed in the United States, management expects that the offset process will
continue to be the method of choice for high-quality, low-cost, long runs.
Products designed for use in offset printing generate the majority of the sales
of Image Transfer.

Transfer Media

Offset printing blankets are highly engineered products manufactured to narrow
tolerances and precise specifications. They are composed of multiple layers of
fabric, rubber and adhesives that determine performance features on the printing
press and overall quality of the printing job. Offset printing sleeves are
highly engineered "tubular" blankets that operate at speeds 20% to 30% faster
than those of standard presses. Blankets and sleeves accept ink from cylindrical
printing plates and transfer it to a broad range of paper stocks and other
substrates. Blankets and sleeves are a major determinant of the quality of the
image resolution and consistency of the printed material, as they are required
to perform consistently over a broad range of press speeds and printing
pressures with a wide variety of papers, inks and other chemicals. Blankets and
sleeves are consumable and are replaced at regular intervals depending on the
process used and printing requirements. Due to the importance of blankets and
sleeves in determining the overall quality of the printing job, and because
their cost typically represents less than 1% of the cost of the printed page,
price is only one of the factors in the end-user's purchase decision.

Pressroom Chemicals

Pressroom Chemicals manufactures two categories of pressroom products: pressroom
chemicals and dampening systems. Pressroom Chemicals manufactures over 100
different pressroom chemicals, which can be classified into the following
categories: (i) roller and blanket washes, which are used to remove ink and
glaze from the surface of the rollers and blankets on the printing press; (ii)
fountain solutions, which are used to prevent ink from migrating to non-print
areas of the printing plate; (iii) anti-setoff powders which are used by sheet
fed and letter press printers to prevent ink from transferring from the top of
one sheet to the bottom of the next; (iv) lithographic chemicals and
specialties; and (v) silicones, which are used in heatset web offset to provide
support in certain printing processes. Pressroom Chemicals' products can be
grouped into standard and custom products. Product lines are formulated to meet
regional requirements. For example, high volume printing operations, such as
major daily newspapers and commercial heatset web, often require custom fountain
solutions.

Products

The Company offers a full line of high-quality, name brand printing blankets and
sleeves to both web-fed (continuous roll) and sheet-fed (individual sheet)
offset printers under the "Day," "David M" and "Freedom" brands. The Company's
printing blankets and sleeves are used to print magazines,



                                       4
<PAGE>

advertising material, business forms, packaging, newspapers and other printed
material. As a result of the superior quality, reliability and value of the
Company's printing blankets and sleeves and its customer service, the Company is
able to command premium prices for its products.

The Company's leading printing blankets are the 9500 dayGraphica(R), 4000
dayGraphica(R), 3000 Patriot(R), 3610 dayGraphica(R), 8500 AccuDot(R),
QuantaLith(R) Gold and QuantaLith(R) Blue lines, which produce high-quality
images, particularly on high-speed printing presses. The Freedom brand was
introduced in 2001 to address the group of customers who were looking for an
economically priced product where quality was a secondary consideration. In
addition to its traditional line of printing blankets, the Company is one of
four global licensees to manufacture tubular, seamless printing sleeves for use
on Heidelberg Web Press, Inc.'s "gapless" webpresses. During 2002, the Company
and Heidelberg revised the license agreement such that Day will be the exclusive
licensee after the expiration of the other licensees' agreements through June
2004.

During the latter part of 2001, the Company began producing consumable products
for digital printing presses. Sales of these products are expected to grow over
the next couple of years as digital printing presses are sold that utilize these
products. The Company is evaluating the production of other prototypes for new
short-run color printing processes.

Transfer Media manufactures a wide array of sleeves used in the flexographic
printing process under the Rotec name. Rotec gained industry prominence in 1993
with the introduction of the compressible sleeve, a product innovation enabling
flexographic printers to achieve higher levels of print quality. The base
technology for the flexographic sleeve has the potential for use in other
printing segments as well (e.g., gravure and offset), which may expand the
market segments for sleeve technology.

Transfer Media also manufactures and sells two lines of specialty products
consisting of (i) pre-inked porous rolls for use in business machines, automated
bank teller machines, ticket machines and credit card imprinters and (ii) cast
urethane mats used by the box board corrugating industry as a backing material
in cutting operations. The Company sells printing accessories such as cylinder
packing papers and aluminum bars for mounting blankets onto press cylinders. In
addition, the Company sells custom rubber compounds to several wire coaters in
Europe.

Pressroom Chemicals has developed products that speed wash-up, color changes and
blanket and roller maintenance; all formulated to reduce downtime and improve
productivity. Roller and blanket washes are used to remove ink and glaze from
the surface of the rollers and blankets on the printing press. Pressroom
Chemicals makes over 25 washes, grouped into five different categories: premium,
environmental, general purpose, fast drying and specialty. Pressroom Chemicals
is a market leader in the area of environmental washes, which constitutes an
important subcategory of Pressroom Chemicals' overall roller and blanket washes
business.

Pressroom Chemicals has created a family of fountain solutions, which are used
to prevent ink from migrating to non-print areas of the printing plate, to cover
all requirements from high-speed web printing presses down to small offset
duplicating printing presses. The fountain solutions and fountain additives are
adjusted for water condition and properly balanced and fortified to improve
print quality and press productivity. Pressroom Chemicals has created a line of
alcohol-free fountain solutions formulated to eliminate the use of isopropyl
alcohol from the process thus improving the pressroom environment.



                                       5
<PAGE>

Antisetoff powders are used extensively by sheetfed, offset and letterpress
printers to prevent ink from transferring from the top of one sheet to the
bottom of the next. Pressroom Chemicals offers an extensive range of silicone
and conventional antisetoff powders to meet all industry requirements.

Lithographic chemicals and specialties include a wide range of products
(including deglazers, additives, plate cleaners, aerosols) formulated to meet
the evolving needs of the printing industry.

Silicones are used in heatset web offset printing to provide slip to the sheet
as it passes over the former board. Pressroom Chemicals offers an extensive line
of conventional silicones, as well as new technology silicones.

Pressroom Chemicals also manufactures the patented Kompac Dampening System and
other mechanical devices for offset printing presses. Pressroom Chemicals
manufactures six different Kompac Dampening Systems models to fit more than 8
different presses, both for new and retrofit applications. Kompac Dampening
Systems consume other products manufactured by Pressroom Chemicals, such as
fountain solutions.

Sales and Distribution

Image Transfer has adopted an integrated approach to product development,
marketing, sales and distribution. Sales professionals in the United States have
strong customer relationships and superior technical expertise. The
international sales force includes sales professionals in Australia, Canada,
France, Germany, Hong Kong, Italy, Japan, Malaysia, Mexico, Russia, Scandinavia,
South Africa and the United Kingdom.

Image Transfer's sales force calls directly on end-users and promotes the
quality and technical features of the Company's products to pressroom foremen,
purchasing agents, plant managers and press operators. Depending on the market
and product, the end-users can then order directly from the Company or through
authorized converters or dealers. Image Transfer distributes a majority of its
products through a large network of converters who buy and cut printing blanket
rolls to customized orders and dealers and sub-dealers who buy finished
products, store inventory and hold receivables. Converters are value-added
dealers who typically purchase rolls of uncut printing blankets from the Company
and then cut, finish and package the blankets for sale to dealers or end-users.
The Company believes that it has one of the most effective networks of
converters and dealers in the industry. The sales force works closely with
converters and dealers, through joint calling efforts on end-users and training
programs. In addition, the sales and technical associates work directly with
large end-users to identify the printing blankets and sleeves that best suit
that printer's particular needs and formulate solutions to complex printing
problems. Sales made to Network Distribution International, Inc. ("NDI"), a
major U.S. converter, accounted for approximately 10% of total net sales in 2002
and 2001 and 12% in 2000. The Company's sales to NDI are not governed by a
written contract between the parties. In the event that NDI was to significantly
reduce or terminate its purchases of blankets and sleeves from the Company, the
Company's financial condition or results of operations could be adversely
affected. The Company has not received any indication that NDI intends to
discontinue or otherwise substantially reduce its relationship with the Company.

TEXTILE PRODUCTS

The Textile Products segment manufactures highly engineered rubber rollers,
known as cots, and flexible belts, known as aprons, for utilization in yarn
spinning machinery. Industry reports characterize the United States as the most
technologically advanced producer of textile products in the world. As a result
of continuing technological improvements in automated high-speed spinning
frames, customers are demanding cots and aprons of higher quality and greater
flexibility to meet their specialized needs and are willing to pay a premium for
cots and aprons that meet these standards. The Company is known as a leader in
technological innovation and quality and has the broadest line of cots and
aprons and related products of any domestic manufacturer.

Products

With the broadest line of cots and aprons of any domestic manufacturer, the
Company offers its customers both general purpose and specialty cots and aprons
recognized in the marketplace under the DAYtex(R) and Accotex(R) brand names,
with over 4,000 different SKUs. General-purpose cots and aprons include a full
line of products designed for "short staple" fibers (such as cotton) and "long
staple" fibers (such as wool), while specialty cots and aprons include
glass-forming aprons, carpet cots and drawing cots. The Company provides
high-quality, precision engineered products that deliver superior value to its
customers. As a result, Textile Products has been an industry leader in quality
and performance, allowing the Company to command premium pricing for its
products.

Because of changes in the spinning process, increasing textile machine speeds
and other rigorous process demands, spinning industry suppliers are constantly
challenged to improve the precision, quality and consistency of their products.
The Company continues to introduce highly engineered cots and aprons targeted to
the high-speed ring and air-jet spinning markets. Products such as
aluminum-lined cots provide improved rigidity and tolerance and have been widely
accepted in the marketplace. Although fewer cots are used on these machines, the
cots that are used are replaced more frequently, are more technologically
advanced, are environmentally friendly and command higher prices compared to
traditional ring spinning cots.

Other products and services include ribbons (take-up roll covering), cot
installation presses, various other accessories and reconditioning services.

Textile Products' product development has allowed the Company to diversify into
new markets. The Company has developed specialty lines of aprons including
glass-forming aprons, which are used to make glass fiber from liquid glass, and
texturizing aprons, which are used to finish certain types of synthetic
filaments. Textile Products also makes bolsters and rubber shrinkage belts
for use in pre-shrinking processes, such as those used for denim, as well as
rubber-covered industrial rollers for textile and other industrial applications.

Sales and Distribution

The Company believes that the quality, technical proficiency and experience of
its Textile Products sales force distinguishes its marketing efforts from those
of competitors. Textile Products' sales professionals have extensive knowledge
of the spinning and weaving process. The sales force markets its products
directly to end-users, primarily textile mills, and original equipment
manufacturers.

RAW MATERIALS

Rubber polymers are a key component in most of the products of Transfer Media
and Textile Products. The Pressroom Chemicals division purchases approximately
200 different raw materials from a variety of key national suppliers, and holds
supply agreements with many of them. However, no single supplier accounts for
more than 10% of total raw material costs. The largest raw material component
for Pressroom Chemicals is petroleum distillates, such as aliphatics and
aromatics. Raw material purchases accounted for approximately 50% of cost of
goods sold for the Company's products during 2002, 2001 and 2000. Various
fabrics and rubber represented approximately 30% of all raw materials purchased
in each of 2002, 2001 and 2000. The Company has developed contingency plans to
address any supply line disruptions, including identifying alternative sources
and maintaining a safety stock of critical raw materials.

The Company is exposed to fluctuations in petroleum prices on certain raw
material costs and historically has been able to pass on price increases to
customers.

The Company purchases its raw material requirements from a number of suppliers
on a purchase order basis, and the Company believes that there are sufficient
sources of supply for the foreseeable future.

RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT

The research and development staff is focused on current product and process
improvement efforts, as well as development of new consumables for future Image
Transfer and Textile Products processes. The Company's active patents have been
important to its existing product line, and increased emphasis is being placed
on new product technologies. Active efforts to obtain additional patents are
underway on a variety of technologies, including certain process patents.

In addition to its extensive patent and trademark portfolio, the Company has a
variety of working agreements with key partners in the image transfer business.
These agreements and other efforts with Original Equipment Manufacturers may
stimulate proprietary processes and additional patent applications.

COMPETITION

The Company competes with a number of manufacturers in the image transfer and
textile components industries, with the main competitive factors being quality,
performance, service and price. While the Company competes with a number of
manufacturers of offset printing blankets and sleeves, the principal competitors
of Transfer Media are Reeves International, Inc. ("Reeves") and Polyfibron
Technologies, Inc. ("Polyfibron"), a subsidiary of MacDermid. Rotec's principal
competitors are Rossini, Polywest Kunststofftechnik, and Axcyl Inc., a
subsidiary of Polyfibron. Pressroom Chemicals competes with a number of
manufacturers of pressroom chemicals. The principal competitors are Anchor
Chemical, Rycoline and PRISCO. Accel Graphics, a division of Parmarco, is the
only main competitor to the Kompac line.

In Textile Products, the Company competes with manufacturers such as Premtec,
Inc., Hokushin Corporation, Yamauchi and Berkol AG (Switzerland).


                                       8
<PAGE>

Some of the Company's competitors may have greater financial and other resources
than the Company and may consequently have more operating flexibility and a
greater ability to expand production capacity and increase research and
development expenditures.

INTERNATIONAL OPERATIONS

The Company's principal international manufacturing facilities are located in
Dundee, Scotland (Transfer Media), Ahaus-Ottenstein, Germany (Transfer Media),
Manchester, England (Pressroom Chemicals) and Munster, Germany (Textile
Products). In addition, the Company maintains sales and distribution facilities
in England, France, Germany, Hong Kong, Italy, South Africa, Russia, Malaysia,
Canada, Mexico, China and Australia.

The Company manufactures and markets its products worldwide through several
international subsidiaries and independent agents. The Company's worldwide
operations are subject to the risks normally associated with international
operations including, but not limited to, the disruption of markets, changes in
export or import laws, restrictions on currency exchanges, and the modification
or introduction of other governmental policies with potentially adverse effects.

Approximately 49% of the Company's 2002 sales were derived from products sold
outside the United States. This has increased from 47% in 2001 and 43% in 2000.
The U.S. dollar value of these revenues varies with currency exchange rate
fluctuations, and the Company may be exposed to gains or losses based upon such
fluctuations. Significant increases in the value of the U.S. dollar relative to
foreign currencies could have an adverse effect on the Company's ability to meet
interest and principal obligations on its U.S. dollar-denominated debt. The
Company periodically enters into forward foreign exchange contracts to protect
it against a portion of such foreign exchange movements.

ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS

The Company's facilities in the United States are subject to federal, state and
local environmental laws and regulations, including those governing discharges
to the air and water, the handling and disposal of solid and hazardous wastes,
and the remediation of contamination associated with releases of hazardous
substances. International facilities are subject to their respective countries'
federal and local environmental requirements, as well as the environmental
requirements promulgated by the European Union, where applicable. The Company
has made, and will continue to make, expenditures to comply with current and
future environmental requirements. Environmental requirements are becoming
increasingly stringent, and therefore the Company's expenditures for
environmental compliance may increase in the future.

Based on environmental assessments conducted by independent environmental
consultants, except as otherwise stated herein, the Company believes that its
operations are currently in compliance with environmental laws and regulations,
except as would not be expected to have a material adverse effect on the
Company. However, there can be no assurances that environmental requirements
will not change in the future or that the Company will not incur significant
costs in the future to comply with such requirements. In addition, the Company's
operations involve the handling of toluene and other hazardous substances, and
if a release of hazardous substances occurs on or from the Company's facilities,
the Company may be required to pay the cost of remedying any condition caused by
such release, the amount of which could be material.

On July 11, 2002, the United States Environmental Protection Agency issued the
proposed Maximum Achievable Control Technology ("MACT") standard for the
Printing source category. This MACT standard is applicable to sources located at
the Company's U.S. operations. The MACT requirements were placed into effect on
March 15, 2003. The primary effect of this rule will be to require
implementation of additional air emission monitoring systems at the Company's
U.S. facilities. These rules will require certain modifications to the plant
facilities over the next two years that will total approximately $0.7 million
for U.S. operations. The Company installed certain equipment from 1998 through
2002 to mitigate future spending requirements resulting from the Clean Air Act.

Cadillac Plastics Group, Inc ("CPG"), the former parent of the Company, and now
known as M.A. Hanna Plastic Group, Inc., and a former subsidiary of M.A. Hanna
Company (now PolyOne Corporation), is a party to a July 25, 1988, Consent Decree
with the Michigan Department of Environmental Quality ("MDEQ") with regard to
contamination at the Company's Three Rivers, Michigan, facility. CPG installed a
groundwater remediation system at the facility in 1989, and was required to
operate such system until certain cleanup levels were achieved. On November 17,
1999, MDEQ approved a study to determine if further degradation of contaminates
will occur if pumping is discontinued and the aquifer returns to an anaerobic
condition. Operations of the groundwater remediation system were suspended on
December 6, 1999, with the approval of MDEQ. Analyses of the study completed in
early 2001 as well as more recent groundwater-monitoring data show that
remaining contamination in groundwater is stable (no significant increases in
concentration). The parties involved continue to monitor groundwater, and are
proceeding with a "natural attenuation" closure program that will consist of
continued groundwater testing and "institutional controls." This new program is
being performed under a December 3, 2001, commitment letter submitted to MDEQ by
M.A. Hanna Plastic Group Inc. As of December 31, 2002, the Company had recorded
accruals of approximately $218,000 to reflect future costs associated with this
cleanup and, based on the reports of its independent consultants, the Company
believes that such accruals are adequate. CPG has indemnified the Company for
such costs and the Company expects to be reimbursed after amounts are expended.
At December 31, 2002, a $215,000 indemnification receivable is recorded.

As a result of the disposal of hazardous substances prior to the acquisition of
the Company by American Industrial Partners in June 1995, CPG was named a
"potentially responsible party" pursuant to the Comprehensive Environmental
Response, Compensation and Liability Act ("CERCLA") and/or similar state laws at
certain waste disposal sites. CPG or the Company has entered into consent
decrees at most of these sites, subject to standard reopener provisions. The
Company expects that no significant expenditures will be made by the Company
with respect to these matters. CPG has agreed to retain ongoing responsibility
for and indemnify the Company with respect to these waste disposal locations.
However, because liability under CERCLA is retroactive, the Company may receive
notices of potential CERCLA liability in the future, and such liability could be
material.

Subject to certain limitations, PolyOne and CPG have agreed to indemnify the
Company for certain other environmental compliance and liability issues
associated with the Company's business, including certain liabilities associated
with an underground toluene tank at the Lerma, Mexico, facility. If PolyOne and
CPG are unable to honor their indemnification obligations, the Company would
likely be responsible for such matters and the cost of addressing such matters
could be material.

ASSOCIATES

The Company currently employs approximately 1,350 full-time associates
worldwide, of which approximately 700 are employed in the United States and
Canada. The Company's associates in Dundee, Scotland, and Munster, Germany are
represented by labor unions. The labor union in Dundee has entered into a

COMPARISON OF RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2002, COMPARED TO YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2001

Net sales increased $5.8 million (2.3%) to $259.9 million, primarily as a result
of favorable changes in foreign currency rates and higher sales volume in
Europe. Sales in 2002 were positively affected by $4.5 million of favorable
changes in foreign currency rates used to translate international sales into
U.S. dollars and increased sales volumes of $3.0 million in Europe. Image
Transfer's sales increased $6.8 million (3.3%) to $211.6 million. Image
Transfer's sales were positively affected by $3.2 million as a result of the
effect of changes in foreign currency rates. Excluding the effect of foreign
currency rate changes, Image Transfer's sales increased $3.6 million (1.8%) from
the comparable period in 2001. The increase is mainly a result of higher sales
volumes in Europe. Textile Products' sales decreased $1.0 million (2.1%) to
$48.3 million. Foreign currency rate changes positively affected Textile
Products' sales by $1.3 million. Textile Products' sales decreased as a result
of decreased volume of $2.0 million in the United States and $0.3 million in
Europe and export markets.

Gross profit increased $4.4 million (4.8%) to $95.5 million. Foreign currency
rate changes increased gross profit by $0.8 million. As a percentage of net
sales, gross profit increased to 36.7% for the year ended December 31, 2002,
from 35.8% for the comparable period in 2001, primarily as a result of benefits
realized from the restructuring activities performed in the second half of 2001
and the first quarter of 2002.

Selling, general & administrative expenses increased $1.4 million (2.6%) to
$55.5 million primarily as a result of foreign currency rate changes. Changes in
foreign currency rates increased SG&A costs by $1.0 million in 2002. Active cost
reduction and prior year restructuring activities offset substantially all of
the increases in health care, retirement, incentive and insurance costs. As a
percentage of net sales, SG&A remained constant at 21.3%.


                                       15
<PAGE>

A pre-tax charge of $0.5 million was recorded in the first quarter of 2001 for
severance and termination costs to relocate the Textile Products operations from
its Asheville, North Carolina, facility to its Greenville, South Carolina,
facility. During the first quarter of 2002, the Company reversed $0.1 million of
the reserve. Additionally, pre-tax charges of $0.3 million and $0.4 million have
been recorded in 2002 and 2001 for relocation of machinery and equipment and
write-off of abandoned assets. As of December 31, 2002, the relocation plan was
complete.

During the fourth quarter of 2001, the Company ceased operations at its Transfer
Media facility in Longwood, Florida. A pre-tax charge of $3.0 million was
recorded in 2001 for severance costs for 55 associates, write-off of abandoned
assets and costs related to closing the facility. During the second quarter of
2002, final severance payments were paid to all associates and the remaining
reserve of $0.1 million for severance costs was reversed.

Also during the fourth quarter of 2001, the Company completed plans to relocate
its Pressroom Chemicals German sales office into other existing facilities and
the U.S. sales and administrative functions from Oakland, New Jersey to other
U.S. locations. A pre-tax charge of $1.0 million was recorded for severance
costs for 21 associates, costs for closing the offices and loss on the sale of
fixed assets. As of December 31, 2002, this plan was complete.

Operating profit increased $11.5 million to $38.1 million. The increase in
operating profit was partly attributable to the adoption of SFAS Nos. 141 and
142 and the related reduction in the amortization of goodwill of $3.7 million
and to $4.8 million of lower restructuring costs in 2002. Excluding the
restructuring costs of $0.1 million and $4.9 million in 2002 and 2001 and the
amortization of goodwill of $3.7 million in 2001, operating profit increased
$3.0 million (8.5%) from $35.2 million to $38.2 million. As a percentage of net
sales, operating profit (excluding amortization of goodwill in 2001 and the
restructuring costs in 2002 and 2001) was 14.7% for the year ended December 31,
2002, compared to 13.9% in 2001. Image Transfer's operating profit increased
$2.1 million (5.9%) to $37.5 million, primarily as a result of higher sales
volumes. As a percentage of net sales, Image Transfer's operating profit
increased to 17.7% for the year ended December 31, 2002, compared to 17.3% in
2001. Textile Products' operating profit increased $0.4 million (6.5%) to $6.5
million, primarily as a result of foreign exchange rate changes. As a percentage
of net sales, Textile Products' operating profit was 13.5% for the year ended
December 31, 2002, compared to 12.4% in 2001.

Other income was $1.9 million in 2002, compared to other expense of $0.6 million
in 2001. The other (income) expense is primarily due to foreign currency
transaction (gains) losses incurred in the normal course of international
subsidiaries doing business in other than their functional currency as well as a
result of intercompany financing arrangements.

The effective tax rate benefit for 2002 was 30.6%. The Company recorded income
tax expense for 2001 on a loss before taxes. This effect is a result of foreign
sourced dividends and income taxable in the United States and non-deductible
expenses.

As of January 1, 2002, the Company adopted SFAS Nos. 141, "Business
Combinations" and 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets" and ceased
recording amortization of goodwill of approximately $3.7 million per year and
recognized pre-tax income of $1.0 million for the cumulative effect of the
change in accounting principle for the amount of the unamortized deferred credit
related to



                                       16
<PAGE>

the excess over cost arising from the TPO acquisition. The Company completed the
initial review of the recoverability of goodwill as of January 1, 2002, and the
subsequent review as of March 31, 2002, and has determined that no impairment
of goodwill is indicated.

YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2001, COMPARED TO YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2000

Net sales decreased $26.4 million (9.4%) to $254.1 million, primarily as a
result of lower sales volume of $26.3 million in the United States and the
Pacific Rim. Sales in 2001 were negatively affected by $4.2 million as a result
of unfavorable changes in foreign currency rates used to translate international
sales into U.S. dollars partly offset by increased sales volumes of $3.2 million
in Europe. Image Transfer's sales decreased $20.1 million (8.9%) to $204.7
million. Image Transfer's sales were negatively affected by $3.2 million as a
result of the effect of changes in foreign currency rates. Excluding the effect
of foreign currency rate changes, Image Transfer's sales decreased $16.9 million
(7.5%) from the comparable period in 2000. The decrease is mainly a result of
lower sales in the United States as a result of the weak U.S. printing industry.
Tubular sleeve sales increased as additional presses that utilize this
technology were installed. Textile Products' sales decreased $6.3 million
(11.4%) to $49.4 million. Foreign currency rate changes negatively affected
Textile Products' sales by $1.0 million. Textile Products' sales decreased as a
result of decreased volume of $7.4 million in the United States, partly offset
by sales volume gains of $2.1 million in Europe and export markets.

Gross profit decreased $18.4 million (16.8%) to $91.1 million. Foreign currency
rate changes reduced gross profit by $1.6 million. As a percentage of net sales,
gross profit decreased to 35.8% for the year ended December 31, 2001, from 39.0%
for the comparable period in 2000, primarily as a result of the lower Image
Transfer sales volume in the United States. In addition, fixed costs such as
research and development costs of new products have increased slightly from last
year resulting in a further decrease in the gross profit percentage.

Selling, general & administrative expenses decreased $3.4 million (5.9%) to
$54.1 million primarily as a result of lower selling costs. As a percentage of
net sales, SG&A increased to 21.3% from 20.5%. Changes in foreign currency rates
reduced SG&A costs by $0.8 million in 2001.

In 2001, the Company began consolidating its U.S. Textile Products operations
into its Greenville, South Carolina, facility. The relocation was completed in
early 2002. A pre-tax charge of $0.9 million was recorded in 2001 for relocation
of machinery and equipment and severance and termination costs for 59 associates
in 2001. As of December 31, 2001, 45 associates had been severed.

During the fourth quarter of 2001, the Company ceased operations at its Transfer
Media facility in Longwood, Florida. A pre-tax charge of $3.0 million was
recorded in 2001 for severance costs for 55 associates, write-off of abandoned
assets and costs related to closing the facility.

Also during the fourth quarter of 2001, the Company completed plans to relocate
its Pressroom Chemicals German sales office into other existing facilities and
the U.S. sales and administrative functions from Oakland, New Jersey to other
U.S. locations. A pre-tax charge of $1.0 million was recorded for severance
costs for 21 associates, costs for closing the offices and loss on the sale of
fixed assets.

Operating profit decreased $19.8 million to $26.7 million. The decrease in
operating profit was partly attributable to $4.9 million of restructuring costs
in 2001. Operating profit, excluding the restructuring costs of $4.9 million in
2001, decreased $14.9 million (32.1%) to $31.6 million. As a percentage of net
sales, operating profit (excluding the restructuring costs in 2001) was 12.4%
for the year ended December 31, 2001, compared to 16.6% in 2000. Image
Transfer's operating profit decreased $14.1 million (28.5%) to $35.4 million,
primarily as a result of lower sales volumes. As a percentage of net sales,
Image Transfer's operating profit decreased to 17.3% for the year ended December
31, 2001, compared to 22.0% in 2000. Textile Products' operating profit
decreased $1.2 million (16.5%) to $6.1 million. As a percentage of net sales,
Textile Products' operating profit was 12.4% for the year ended December 31,
2001, compared to 13.1% in 2000.

Other expense was $0.6 million in 2001, compared to $4.6 million for 2000. The
other expense is primarily due to foreign currency transaction losses incurred
in the normal course of international subsidiaries doing business in other than
their functional currency as well as a result of intercompany financing
arrangements.

The Company recorded income tax expense for 2001 on a loss before taxes. This
effect is a result of foreign sourced dividends and income taxable in the United
States and non-deductible expenses.

RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH INTERNATIONAL OPERATIONS

The Company conducts a significant amount of business and has operating and
sales facilities in countries outside the United States. As a result, the
Company is subject to business risks inherent in non-U.S. activities, including
political uncertainty, import and export limitations, exchange controls and
currency fluctuations. The Company believes risks related to its international
operations are mitigated due to the political and economic stability of the
countries in which its largest international operations are located, the
stand-alone nature of the operations, the Company's limited net asset exposure,
forward foreign exchange contract practices and pricing flexibility. Thus, while
changes in foreign currency values do affect earnings, the longer-term economic
effect of these changes should not have a material adverse effect on the
Company's financial condition, results of operations or liquidity.

Certain of the Company's international subsidiaries make purchases and sales in
designated currencies other than their functional currency. As a result, they
are subject to transaction exposures that arise from foreign exchange movements
between the date that the foreign currency transaction is recorded and the date
it is consummated. In addition, the Company has intercompany loans outstanding
with certain international subsidiaries in their local currencies, exposing it
to the effect of changes in exchange rates at loan issue and loan repayment
dates. The Company periodically enters into forward foreign exchange contracts
to protect it against such foreign exchange movements. The contract value of
these foreign exchange contracts was approximately $10.1 million at December 31,
2002, $9.3 million at December 31, 2001 and $2.1 million at December 31, 2000.
These contracts generally expire within three to twelve months. Foreign currency
gains (losses), included in other (expense) income-net, were $1.3 million in
2002, $(0.9) million in 2001 and $(5.0) million in 2000. Based on the Company's
overall foreign currency exchange rate exposure at December 31, 2002, including
the forward contracts, a 10% adverse change in foreign currency exchange rates
would result in a hypothetical estimated loss in earnings of approximately $1.4
million.


                                       18

INTEREST RATE RISKS

The Company is subject to market risk from exposure to changes in the interest
rates based on its financing activities. The Company utilizes a mix of debt
maturities along with both fixed- and variable-rate debt to manage its exposure
to changes in interest rates and to minimize interest expense. The Company does
not expect changes in interest rates to have a material effect on income or cash
flows in 2002, although there can be no assurance that interest rates will not
materially change.

COMMODITY RISKS

Rubber polymers and fabrics are key components in most of the Transfer Media and
Textile products. The Company is exposed to changes in the costs of these
components. Pressroom Chemicals is exposed to changes in the cost of certain
petroleum-based components. The largest raw material component in Pressroom
Chemicals' products is petroleum distillates, such as aliphatics and aromatics.
When commodity prices increase, the Company has historically passed on increases
to its customers to maintain its profit margins. Conversely, when commodity
prices decline, the Company generally lowers its sales prices to meet
competitive pressures. Because the Company has historically been able to raise
sales prices to offset higher costs, management believes that a 10% change in
the cost of its components could have a short-term effect until sales price
increases take effect, but overall would not have a material effect on income or
cash flows for a fiscal year.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Company has historically generated sufficient funds from its operations to
fund its working capital and capital expenditure requirements. The Company is
able to maintain relatively low levels of working capital as its converters and
distributors typically carry a greater portion of inventory and finance
receivables of the Company's end users.

The Company's expenditures for plant, property and equipment were $8.3 million
in 2002, $13.0 million in 2001, and $10.3 million in 2000. The Company believes
that capital expenditures of $9.0 million to $12.0 million annually over the
next several years will be sufficient to maintain its leading market position.
The Company expects to fund these capital expenditures from cash flow from
operations.

The Company is highly leveraged. At December 31, 2002, the Company's aggregate
indebtedness is approximately $252.1 million and the aggregate liquidation
preference of the Exchangeable Preferred Stock is $62.4 million (which, subject
to certain conditions, may be exchanged for Exchange Debentures). At December
31, 2002, the aggregate liquidation preference of the Convertible Preferred
Stock is $65.6 million.

The Company has a Senior Secured Credit Facility consisting of a $70.0 million
Term Loan (of which $31.2 million was outstanding at December 31, 2002) and a
$20 million Revolving Credit Facility (of which $4.9 million was outstanding at
December 31, 2002).

The Senior Secured Credit Facility is repayable as follows: $12.5 million in
2003, $12.5 million in 2004 and $11.1 million in 2005. Prepayments on the Term
Loan are applied in inverse order of maturity. During the year ended December
31, 2002, the Company made $12.6 million in payments on the term loans and
borrowed $0.8 million on the Revolving Credit Facility. The Senior Secured
Credit Facility is



                                       19
<PAGE>

secured by the assets of the Company and its domestic subsidiaries, as well as
65% of the stock of each international subsidiary. The amounts available under
the Revolving Credit Facility are subject to a borrowing base limitation
(defined generally as 80% of eligible domestic accounts receivable plus the
lesser of 50% of eligible domestic inventory or $10 million). As of December 31,
2002, the Company had approximately $12.8 million available under the Revolving
Credit Facility (calculated by applying the applicable borrowing base
limitation).

The level of the Company's indebtedness could have important consequences
including: (i) a substantial portion of the Company's cash flow from operations
must be dedicated to debt service and will not be available for other purposes;
(ii) the Company's ability to obtain additional debt or other financing in the
future for working capital, capital expenditures, research and development or
acquisitions may be limited; (iii) the Company's level of indebtedness could
limit its flexibility in reacting to changes in its industries and economic
conditions generally.

The Company's ability to pay principal and interest on its debt obligations and
dividends on the Exchangeable Preferred Stock and the Convertible Preferred
Stock will depend upon its future operating performance, which will be affected
by prevailing economic conditions and financial, business and other factors,
certain of which are beyond its control, as well as the availability of
revolving credit borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility (which is
subject to borrowing base limitations) or a successor facility. The Company
anticipates that its operating cash flow, together with borrowings under the
Revolving Credit Facility, will be sufficient to meet its operating expenses and
capital expenditures and to service its debt requirements as they become due.
However, there can be no assurance that the Company's cash flow, availability
under the Revolving Credit Facility and other capital resources will be
sufficient for payment of principal and interest on its indebtedness, for the
payment of periodic cash dividends on the Exchangeable Preferred Stock or the
Convertible Preferred Stock, for any redemption of the Exchangeable Preferred
Stock or the Convertible Preferred Stock for cash, or if the Exchange Debentures
have been issued, the payment of principal of or cash interest on the Exchange
Debentures. If the Company's cash flow, availability under the Revolving Credit
Facility and other capital resources are insufficient to fund the Company's debt
service obligations, the Company may be forced to reduce or delay capital
expenditures, to sell assets, to restructure or refinance its indebtedness, or
to seek additional equity capital. There can be no assurance that any of such
measures could be implemented on satisfactory terms, or if implemented, would be
successful or would permit the Company to meet its debt service obligations.

The Senior Secured Credit Facility, the 2005 Indenture, the 2008 Indenture and
the certificates of designation for the Preferred Stocks contain a number of
significant covenants that restrict the operations of the Company. For example,
under the Senior Secured Credit Facility, the Company is required to comply with
specified financial ratios and tests, including minimum fixed charges coverage
ratio, maximum leverage ratio and interest coverage ratio. There can be no
assurance that the Company will be able to comply with any such covenants or
restrictions in the future. The Company's ability to comply with such covenants
and restrictions may be affected by events beyond its control, including
prevailing economic, financial and industry conditions. The breach of any such
covenants or restrictions could result in a default under the Senior Secured
Credit Facility, the 2005 Indenture and/or the 2008 Indenture that would permit
the lenders to declare all amounts outstanding to be immediately due and
payable, together with accrued and unpaid interest, and the commitments of the
lenders under the Revolving Credit Facility to make further extensions of credit
could be terminated.


                                       20
<PAGE>

The occurrence of certain events that would constitute a Change of Control may
result in a default, or otherwise require repayment of indebtedness, under the
Senior Secured Credit Facility, the 2005 Indenture and the 2008 Indenture, and
redemption of the Exchangeable Preferred Stock and the Convertible Preferred
Stock or, in the case of the Exchange Debentures, repayment of indebtedness
under the Exchange Debentures. In addition, the Senior Secured Credit Facility
and the 2005 Indenture prohibit the repayment of indebtedness under the 2008
Indenture by the Company in such an event, unless and until such time as the
indebtedness under the Senior Secured Credit Facility and the 2005 Indenture are
repaid in full. The Company's failure to make such repayments in such instances
would result in a default under the Senior Secured Credit Facility and the 2005
Indenture. The inability to repay the indebtedness under the Senior Secured
Credit Facility or the 2005 Indenture, if accelerated, would also constitute an
event of default under the 2008 Indenture, which could have materially adverse
consequences to the Company and to the holders of the Notes under the 2008
Indenture. Future indebtedness of the Company may also contain restrictions or
repayment requirements with respect to certain events or transactions that could
constitute a Change of Control. In the event of a Change of Control, there can
be no assurance that the Company would have sufficient assets to satisfy all of
its obligations under the Senior Secured Credit Facility, 2005 Indenture or the
2008 Indenture, the Exchangeable Preferred Stock or the Exchange Debentures, as
the case may be, or with respect to the Convertible Preferred Stock.

The Company does not have transactions, arrangements or relationships with
special-purpose entities and the Company does not have any off-balance-sheet
debt except as disclosed in the notes to the consolidated financial statements.

In 2001 the Company suspended its U.K. pension plan and intends to settle the
remaining obligation in 2003. As of December 31, 2002, the settlement will
require an additional contribution of approximately $1.6 million and will result
in a pre-tax settlement loss of approximately $1.3 million. These amounts are
subject to change as a result of the final determination of the amount of the
obligation and the value of the plan assets at the date of the settlement.

ENVIRONMENTAL EXPENDITURES

The Company has made, and will continue to make, expenditures to comply with
current and future requirements of environmental laws and regulations. The
Company estimates that in 2002, 2001 and 2000 it spent approximately $0.2
million, $1.2 million and $0.8 million in capital expenditures for solvent
recovery, wastewater treatment, air monitoring and related projects to comply
with environmental requirements.

On July 11, 2002, the United States Environmental Protection Agency issued the
proposed Maximum Achievable Control Technology ("MACT") standard for the
Printing source category. This MACT standard is applicable to sources located at
the Company's U.S. operations. The MACT requirements were placed into effect on
March 15, 2003. The primary effect of this rule will be to require
implementation of additional air emission monitoring systems at the Company's
U.S. facilities. These rules will require certain modifications to the plant
facilities over the next two years that will total approximately $0.7 million
for U.S. operations. The Company installed certain equipment from 1998 through
2002 to mitigate future spending requirements resulting from the Clean Air Act.
Capital expenditures relating to environmental matters are anticipated to be
less than $1 million in 2003.


                                       21
<PAGE>

Based on environmental assessments conducted by independent environmental
consultants, except as otherwise stated herein, the Company believes that its
operations are currently in compliance with environmental laws and regulations,
except as would not be expected to have a material adverse effect on the
Company. However, there can be no assurances that environmental requirements
will not change in the future or that the Company will not incur significant
costs in the future to comply with such requirements. In addition, the Company's
operations involve the handling of solvents and other hazardous substances, and
if a release of hazardous substances occurs on or from the Company's facilities,
the Company may be required to pay the cost of remedying any condition caused by
such release, the amount of which could be material.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
disclosures at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of
revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The more significant
estimates include: accounts receivable allowances, inventory valuation,
recoverability of long-lived assets, retirement and other postretirement
benefits, and the realization of deferred tax assets. We use the following
methods and assumptions in determining our estimates:

Accounts Receivable Allowances-Allowances for doubtful accounts are determined
by applying historical experience with consideration given to the condition of
the economy and evaluation of specific accounts. Other allowances are calculated
based on negotiated agreements with customers.

Inventory Valuation-Inventories are stated at the lower of cost as market using
the First-in, First-out (FIFO) Method. Reserves for obsolete and slow-moving
inventory are determined based on the lower of cost or market method. Market
value is determined based on management's estimate of selling price less selling
costs.

Recoverability of Long-lived Assets -Recoverability of goodwill is tested at
least annually in accordance with SFAS No. 142 using a combination of valuation
techniques, including present value of estimated future cash flows and earnings
multiples of comparable companies. Other long-lived assets are reviewed for
impairment annually or whenever events or circumstances indicate that the
carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable in accordance with SFAS No.
144 by determining whether the amortization of the assets over their remaining
lives can be recovered through projected undiscounted cash flows. Future cash
flows are forecasted based on management's estimates of future events and could
be materially different from actual cash flows.

Retirement and Other Postretirement Benefits-Retirement and other postretirement
benefit costs and obligations are dependent on assumptions used in calculating
such amounts. These assumptions include discount rates, health care cost trend
rates, benefits earned, interest cost, expected return on plan assets, mortality
rates and other factors. In accordance with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States, actual results that differ from the assumptions
are accumulated and amortized over future periods and, therefore, generally
affect recognized expense and the recorded obligation in future periods. While
management believes that the assumptions used are appropriate, differences in
actual experience or changes in assumptions may affect the Company's retirement
and other postretirement obligations and future expense. See Notes M and N to
the Consolidated Financial Statements for further detail on the assumptions
used.

Realization of Deferred Tax Assets-Realization of net operating loss
carryforwards and other deferred tax assets is determined in accordance with the
appropriate accounting guidance in SFAS No. 109. Realization of the deferred tax
assets is periodically evaluated using expected future reversals of existing
temporary differences, future taxable income resulting principally from the
characterization of cash flow from international subsidiaries as



                                       22
<PAGE>

dividends taxable in the United States rather than repayment of intercompany
loans and the effects of lower interest expense from lower outstanding debt
levels as debt service requirements are met.

Consolidated Financial Statements.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS



To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of
Day International Group, Inc.:

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Day International
Group, Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2002, and the related
consolidated statements of operations, stockholders' equity (deficit) and cash
flows for the year then ended. These consolidated financial statements are the
responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits. The
consolidated financial statements of Day International Group, Inc. and
subsidiaries as of December 31, 2001, and for each of the two years in the
period ended December 31, 2001, were audited by other auditors who have ceased
operations and whose report dated March 26, 2002, expressed an unqualified
opinion.

We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted
in the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit
to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free
of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit
also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates
made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement
presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our
opinion.

In our opinion, the 2002 financial statements referred to above present fairly,
in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Day
International Group, Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2002, and the
results of their operations and their cash flows for the year then ended, in
conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

As discussed in Note E, in 2002 the Company changed its method of accounting
for goodwill in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
Nos. 141, "Business Combinations" and 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible
Assets."

                 DAY INTERNATIONAL GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
              FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2002, 2001 AND 2000
                          (DOLLAR AMOUNTS IN THOUSANDS)

A. NATURE OF OPERATIONS, BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Day International Group, Inc. and subsidiaries is one of the world's leading
producers of precision-engineered products, specializing in the design and
customization of consumable image-transfer products for the graphic arts
(printing) industry and consumable fiber handling products for the textile
industry. The Image Transfer segment designs, manufactures and markets
high-quality printing blankets, sleeves, pressroom chemicals and automatic
dampening systems used primarily in the offset and flexographic printing
industries. The Textile Products segment manufactures and markets precision
engineered rubber cots and aprons sold to textile yarn spinners and other
engineered rubber products sold to diverse markets. Sales are made through Day's
sales organization, distributors and representatives.

B. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES

PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION-The consolidated financial statements include the
accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. All significant intercompany
transactions and balances have been eliminated.

CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS-Cash and cash equivalents include all highly liquid
investments with an original purchased maturity of three months or less.

INVENTORIES-Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market using the
first-in, first-out (FIFO) method. Reserves for obsolete and slow-moving
inventory are determined based on the lower of cost or market method. Market
value is determined based on management's estimate of selling price less selling
costs.

PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT-Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost.
Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over their estimated
useful lives. Buildings and improvements are depreciated over 10 to 40 years and
machinery and equipment are depreciated over 5 to 10 years.

GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLES-Goodwill represents the excess of cost over the
fair value of the net assets acquired and is evaluated for impairment based on
the requirements as proscribed in Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
("SFAS") No. 142. The Company assesses the recoverability of other long-lived
assets, including other intangibles, by determining whether the amortization of
the respective balances over their remaining lives can be recovered through
projected undiscounted cash flows.

Deferred financing costs are being amortized using an effective interest rate
method over the lives of the related debt. Intangibles are being amortized using
the straight-line method.

STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION-As permitted by SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for
Stock-Based Compensation," the Company applies the intrinsic value method of
recognition and measurement under Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25 to
its stock options and warrants. No compensation expense related to employee
stock options or warrants issued to directors is reflected in net income (loss).
The following table illustrates the effect on net income (loss) if compensation
costs for all outstanding and unvested stock option and warrants had been
determined based on their fair values at the grant date, consistent with the
method prescribed by SFAS No. 123:

</TABLE>

REVENUE RECOGNITION-Day recognizes revenue when the product is shipped. Reserves
for product returns, based upon historical experience, and other allowances,
calculated based on negotiated agreements with customers, are recognized upon
shipment. Allowances for doubtful accounts are determined by applying historical
experience with consideration given to the condition of the economy and
evaluation of specific accounts and are recorded in selling, general and
administrative costs.



                                       30
<PAGE>

FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION-The functional currency is the local currency of
Day's respective international subsidiaries. Accordingly, foreign currency
assets and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollars at the period end
exchange rates. Foreign currency revenues and expenses are translated at the
average exchange rates for the period. Translation gains and losses are recorded
in the accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). Transaction gains and
losses are recorded in other expense (income) in the consolidated statements of
operations.

CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK-The Company's receivables are from a diverse group
of customers in the printing and textile industries and such receivables are
generally unsecured. One customer accounted for 10%, 10% and 12% of net sales
for the years ended December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000. This customer accounted
for 2% and 5% of receivables at December 31, 2002 and 2001.

FOREIGN EXCHANGE CONTRACTS-The Company and its international subsidiaries make
purchases and sales in foreign currencies and are subject to transaction
exposures that arise from foreign exchange movements between the date that the
foreign currency transaction is recorded and the date it is consummated. In
addition, the Company has intercompany loans outstanding with certain
international subsidiaries in their local currencies, exposing it to the effect
of changes in exchange rates at loan issue and loan repayment dates. Day
periodically enters into forward foreign exchange contracts, with terms
generally of 3 to 12 months, to protect itself against such foreign currency
movements. These contracts are recorded at fair value with the change in fair
value recorded as other expense (income) as an offset to the (income) expense
recognized from the remeasurement of the hedged foreign-currency denominated
asset or liability. Hedges of forecasted transactions are recorded as cash flow
hedges and are reclassified to earnings when the hedged transaction is
completed. The contract value of foreign exchange contracts was $10,136 and
$9,312 at December 31, 2002 and 2001. The fair value of these contracts is a
payable of $362 at December 31, 2002 and a receivable of $166 at December 31,
2001. Day is exposed to credit-related losses in the event of nonperformance by
counterparties to the forward contracts. The counterparties are expected to meet
their obligations given their credit ratings; therefore Day does not obtain
collateral for these instruments.

FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS-The carrying value of the Company's variable
rate Credit Agreement approximates fair value. The fair market value of the 9
1/2% Senior Subordinated Debt and the 11-1/8% Senior Debt was approximately
$195,200 and $169,900 at December 31, 2002 and 2001, based on quoted market
prices. The fair value of the 12 1/4% Exchangeable Preferred Stock was
approximately $9,400 and $12,700 at December 31, 2002 and 2001, based on quoted
market prices. The fair value of the 18% Convertible Preferred Stock could not
be determined as the securities are closely held and are not actively traded.
See Note G for further information about the Convertible Preferred Stock. At
December 31, 2002 and 2001, the carrying amounts of all other assets and
liabilities that qualify as financial instruments approximated their fair value.

RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT-Research and development costs are expensed as
incurred.

DISTRIBUTION-Distribution costs of $8,241, $7,973 and $6,914 for the years ended
December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000 are included in selling, general and
administrative costs.

ADVERTISING-Advertising costs are expensed as incurred.


                                       31

MANAGEMENT ESTIMATES-The preparation of the financial statements in conformity
with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires
management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of
assets and liabilities and disclosures at the date of the financial statements
and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.
Actual results could differ from these estimates.

E. GOODWILL AND INTANGIBLE ASSETS

In July 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS Nos. 141,
"Business Combinations" and 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets."
These statements prohibit amortization of goodwill for periods beginning after
December 15, 2001. Instead an annual review of the recoverability of the
goodwill and intangible assets is required. As of January 1, 2002, the Company
adopted these statements and ceased recording amortization of goodwill of
approximately $3,700 per year and recognized pre-tax income of $1,010 for the
cumulative effect of the change in accounting principle for the amount of the
unamortized deferred credit related to the excess over cost arising from the TPO
acquisition in 1999.

     SENIOR SECURED CREDIT FACILITY

The Senior Secured Credit Agreement is a $90,000 credit facility consisting of a
five-year $70,000 term loan and a $20,000 revolving line of credit with a group
of banks. The revolving line of credit includes a $10,000 letter of credit
subfacility ($455 of letters of credit were outstanding at December 31, 2002 to
support the Company's share of a loan by the joint venture in China) and a
$1,000 swingline loan subfacility. At December 31, 2002, interest on the term
loan and $2,500 of the revolving line of credit was based on the bank's LIBOR
rate plus 3.00% (4.13%) and the remaining balance of the revolving line of
credit was based on the banks' base rate plus 2.00% (6.00%). Interest rates on
LIBOR borrowings are fixed for one, two, three or six month periods at the
Company's discretion. The weighted average interest rate on the Senior Secured
Credit Facility for the year ended December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000 was 5.37%,
7.30% and 9.71%.

The amounts available under the Revolving Credit Facility are subject to a
borrowing base limitation (defined generally as 80% of eligible domestic
accounts receivable plus the lesser of 50% of eligible domestic inventory and
$10,000). At December 31, 2002, $12,816 was available under the Senior Secured
Credit Facility (calculated by applying the borrowing base test). The Senior
Secured Credit Facility requires a commitment fee of 1/2% a year on the unused
portion of the revolving line of credit. The Senior Secured Credit Facility
contains various financial covenants, including minimum fixed charges coverage
ratio, maximum leverage ratio and interest coverage ratio, and other covenants
which place limits on, among other things, asset sales, dividends and
distributions of the Company's or its subsidiaries' capital stock, the purchase,
redemption, acquisition of capital stock of the Company or its affiliates or any
subsidiaries, and the incurrence of certain additional indebtedness. No
violations of these covenants occurred during the year ended December 31, 2002.

     11-1/8% SENIOR NOTES AND 9 1/2% SENIOR SUBORDINATED NOTES

The Company has outstanding $100,000 of 11-1/8% Senior Notes due June 1, 2005,
and $115,000 face amount of 9 1/2% Senior Subordinated Notes due March 15, 2008
(collectively, the "Notes"). The Senior Notes are subordinate to the Senior
Secured Credit Facility. The Senior Subordinated Notes are subordinate to the
Senior Notes.


                                       34
<PAGE>

Interest on the Notes is payable semi-annually. The Notes contain various
financial and other covenants which place limits on, among other things, asset
sales, dividends and distributions of the Company's or its subsidiaries' capital
stock, the purchase, redemption, acquisition of capital stock of the Company or
its affiliates or any subsidiaries, and the incurrence of certain additional
indebtedness. Upon a change in control, the Notes can be put back to the Company
at 101% of their face value.

The Company may, at its option, redeem the Senior Notes, in whole or in part,
for cash, at 102.472% through May 31, 2003, 101.236% from June 1, 2003 through
May 31, 2004 and 100.0% thereafter, together with all accrued and unpaid
interest to the date of redemption. Except for a change in control, the Company
may not redeem the Senior Subordinated Notes prior to March 15, 2003. On or
after such date, the Company may, at its option, redeem the Senior Subordinated
Notes, in whole or in part, for cash, at 104.75% in 2003, 103.167% in 2004,
101.583% in 2005 and 100.0% thereafter, together with all accrued and unpaid
interest to the date of redemption.

The Company's wholly-owned subsidiary, Day International, Inc., has guaranteed
the Senior Secured Credit Facility and the Notes. The Senior Secured Credit
Facility is secured by the assets of the Company and its domestic subsidiaries,
as well as 65% of the stock of each international subsidiary.

Principal payments on long-term debt for the next five years are payable as
follows: $12,597 in 2003, $12,602 in 2004, $111,174 in 2005, $102 in 2006 and
$108 in 2007.

G. REDEEMABLE PREFERRED STOCKS

     12 1/4% SENIOR EXCHANGEABLE PREFERRED STOCK

The Company has outstanding $62,401 and $55,308 (face value) of 12 1/4% Senior
Exchangeable Preferred Stock at December 31, 2002 and 2001. All dividends are
payable quarterly in arrears on March 15, June 15, September 15 and December 15
of each year. On or before March 15, 2003, the Company may, at its option, pay
dividends in cash or in additional fully-paid and non-assessable shares of
Exchangeable Preferred Stock having an aggregate liquidation preference equal to
the amount of such dividends. After March 15, 2003, dividends must be paid in
cash and if not paid for four consecutive quarters, then the holders of the
Exchangeable Preferred Stock have the right to elect two directors to the Board
of Directors until the dividends in arrears have been paid. Certain restrictions
in the Company's Senior Secured Credit Agreement and Notes limit the ability to
pay cash dividends. On any scheduled dividend payment date, the Company may, at
its option, but subject to certain conditions, exchange all of the shares of the
Exchangeable Preferred Stock for the Company's 12 1/4% Subordinated Exchange
Debentures Due 2010 (the "Exchange Debentures"). All dividends paid have been in
the form of additional fully-paid and non-assessable shares of Exchangeable
Preferred Stock.

The Company will be required, subject to certain conditions, to redeem all of
the Exchangeable Preferred Stock or the Exchange Debentures as the case may be,
on March 15, 2010. Except as described below, the Company may not redeem the
Exchangeable Preferred Stock or the Exchange Debentures prior to March 15, 2003.
On or after such date, the Company may, at its option, redeem the Exchangeable
Preferred Stock or the Exchange Debentures, in whole or in part, for cash, at
106.125% in 2003, 104.083% in 2004, 102.042% in 2005 and 100.0% thereafter,
together with, in the case of the Exchangeable Preferred Stock, all accumulated
and unpaid dividends to the date of redemption, or in the case of the Exchange
Debentures, all accrued and unpaid interest to the date of redemption. Upon the
occurrence of a change in



                                       35
<PAGE>

control, the Company would be required to make an offer to purchase the
Exchangeable Preferred Stock or the Exchange Debentures, for cash, at a price
equal to 101% of the liquidation preference or aggregate principal amount (as
the case may be) thereof, together with, in the case of the Exchangeable
Preferred Stock, all accumulated and unpaid dividends to the date of purchase,
or in the case of the Exchange Debentures, all accrued and unpaid interest to
the date of purchase.

     18% CONVERTIBLE CUMULATIVE PREFERRED STOCK

At December 31, 2002 and 2001, the Company has outstanding $65,629 and $55,618
liquidation preference of 18% Convertible Cumulative Preferred Stock
("Preference Stock") with a mandatory redemption date of June 30, 2010. The
Preference Stock ranks junior to the Company's 12 1/4% Senior Exchangeable
Preferred Stock and ranks senior to any subsequently issued preferred stock. All
dividends are payable quarterly in arrears on March 30, June 30, September 30
and December 30 of each year. Holders of the Preference Stock are entitled to
receive an annual dividend rate of 18% plus approximately 24% of the aggregate
value of each dividend (if any) declared and paid on the Company's common stock.
If not paid quarterly in cash, annually, accumulated and unpaid dividends are to
be added to the basis of the stock.

The Company may redeem any or all of the shares of the Preference Stock for
consideration equal to the Base Redemption Amount. The Base Redemption Amount is
an amount equal to up to 1,500 shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise
of future warrants plus the greater of the liquidation preference of the
Preference Stock or the value of 7,348.7 shares of the Company's Common Stock,
as adjusted for dilutive issuances.

Upon the occurrence of a change of control and subject to the Holders of all of
the Company's Senior Securities having exercised their right to be prepaid
and/or to put their securities to the Company upon such Change of Control, each
Holder of Preference Stock may require the Company to redeem, on or after the
92nd day after the prepayment or redemption of the Company's Senior Securities
in whole, all or any part of such Holder's Preference Stock at 102% of the

During 2002, it was determined that the Company's foreign source income taxable
in the United States was less than previously estimated. The effect of this
change in estimate was to decrease the 2002 income tax expense by $1,930. Other
tax benefit for 2001 in the table above consists primarily of the release of tax
reserves.

Income (loss) before income taxes includes $16,131, $13,069 and $14,441 of
income from international operations for the years ended December 31, 2002, 2001
and 2000. Day has not provided for deferred taxes on the undistributed earnings
of international subsidiaries because the earnings are deemed permanently
reinvested. Undistributed earnings of Day's foreign subsidiaries amounted to
approximately $35 million as of December 31, 2002. The unrecognized deferred tax
liability on these earnings has not been calculated due to the complexities
associated with the hypothetical calculation. Beginning in 2004, it is
anticipated that Day will remit a substantial portion of annual foreign
subsidiary earnings in the form of taxable dividends. The tax consequences of
those dividends will be recorded when such dividends are paid. The Company has
United States net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $58,890 expiring
from 2006 through 2022.

J. BUSINESS SEGMENTS

The Company produces precision-engineered products, specializing in the design
and customization of consumable image-transfer products for the graphic arts
(printing) industry and consumable fiber handling products for the textile
industry. The Image Transfer segment designs, manufactures and markets
high-quality printing blankets and sleeves, pressroom chemicals and automatic
dampening systems used primarily in the offset and flexographic printing
industries. The Textile Products segment manufactures and markets precision
engineered rubber cots and aprons sold to textile yarn spinners and other
engineered rubber products sold to diverse markets.

The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in Note
B-Significant Accounting Policies. Segment performance is evaluated based on
operating profit results compared to the annual operating plan. Intersegment
sales and transfers are not material.


                                       38
<PAGE>

The Company manages the two segments as separate strategic business units. They
are managed separately because each business unit requires different
manufacturing processes, technology and marketing strategies.

K. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

In accordance with a management services agreement, the Company is required to
pay GSC Partners and SGCP, the controlling shareholders of Day, an annual
management fee of $1.0 million plus expenses, payable semi-annually.

L. STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY AND STOCK BASED COMPENSATION PLAN

1998 STOCK OPTION PLAN

The 1998 Stock Option Plan provides incentives to officers and other key
employees of the Company that serve to align their interests with those of
stockholders. Under the 1998 Stock Option Plan, the Board is authorized to award
four different types of non-qualified stock options: (i) service options, (ii)
performance options, (iii) super performance options and (iv) exit options.
Under the 1998 Stock Option Plan, unless otherwise provided by the Board,
service options vest and become exercisable in five equal annual installments on
each of the first five anniversaries of the date of grant; performance and super


                                       40
<PAGE>

performance options vest and become exercisable in annual installments based on
the achievement of annual EBITDA targets of the Company; and exit options vest
and become exercisable based upon the internal rate of return of GSC Partners
realized in connection with the disposition of its investment in the Company.
Regardless of the satisfaction of any performance goals, performance options,
super performance options and exit options fully vest and become exercisable on
the ninth anniversary of the date of grant.

Initially, 7,885 shares of the Company's voting common stock were authorized for
issuance under the 1998 Stock Option Plan. In the event of certain changes in
the Company's capital structure affecting the common stock, the Board of
Directors may make appropriate adjustments in the number of shares then covered
by options and, where applicable, the exercise price of options under the 1998
Stock Option Plan.

As of December 31, 2002, 7,717 options have been granted (of which 999 are
exercisable) under the 1998 Stock Option Plan with an exercise price of $4,030.
These options expire as follows: 6,167 expire in 2007 and 1,550 expire in 2012.

DAY STOCK OPTION PLAN

Certain employees hold options that were previously granted under the Day
International Group, Inc. Stock Option Plan (the "Day Option Plan"). In 1998 all
options granted under the Day Option Plan became fully vested and the Day Option
Plan was amended to provide that no further options may be awarded under that
plan. As a result, compensation expense associated with these options was
recorded in 1998 and the remaining balance of $7,821 is included in other
long-term liabilities at December 31, 2002 and 2001. As of December 31, 2002,
2,452.5 options have been granted under the Day Option Plan with an exercise
price of $1,000 a share and 310 options have been granted with an exercise price
of $1,200 a share. The options expire as follows: 2,377.5 expire in 2005; 75
expire in 2006; and 310 expire in 2007.

Warrants to purchase up to 74 shares of Common Stock at a price of $4,030 per
share were granted in 1998 to one of the Board members as compensation for
services as a director. These warrants vest in four equal installments, first on
the grant date and then on each of the first three anniversaries thereof. In
2000, additional warrants to purchase up to 74 shares of Common Stock at a price
of $4,030 per share were granted to each of two Board members for their
services. These warrants vest one-quarter on the grant date and on the first
anniversary of the grant and the remainder on the second anniversary.


M. RETIREMENT PLANS

The Company has defined benefit plans covering certain associates of its
international subsidiaries. Benefits under these plans are based primarily on
years of service and qualifying compensation during the final years of
employment. The pension plan in the United Kingdom has plan assets consisting of
U.K. government bonds in 2002 and marketable equity securities in 2001. The
Company's funding policy complies with the requirements of local laws and
regulations. During 2001, the Company froze the benefits under the U.K. Pension
plan and settled a portion of the obligation by transferring the benefits of
active associates to a defined contribution plan.

In conjunction with the TPO acquisition in 1999, the Company entered into a
Promise to Pay agreement with Armstrong World Industries GmbH ("Armstrong") for
the unfunded pension obligation of TPO's Germany subsidiary in which Armstrong
agreed to pay the portion of any pension obligations which the associates earned
prior to the date of the acquisition. At December 31, 2002, a receivable of
$1,483 has been recorded for the estimated portion of the pension obligation
that is Armstrong's responsibility.

Day also sponsors defined contribution plans for certain associates, which
provide for Company contributions of a specified percentage of each associate's
total compensation.

The weighted-average assumed rate of increase in the per capita cost of covered
benefits (i.e., health care cost rate trend) is assumed to be 9.5% and
decreasing gradually to 5.0% in 2011 and remaining at that level thereafter. A
one percentage point increase in the assumed health care cost trend rate would
have increased the accumulated benefit obligation by $2,142 at December 31,
2002, and the interest and service cost would have been $312 higher for the year
ended December 31, 2002. A one percentage point decrease in the assumed health
care cost trend rate would have decreased the accumulated benefit obligation by
$1,702 at December 31, 2002, and the interest and service cost would have been
$243 lower for the year ended December 31, 2002.

A discount rate of 7.00% and 7.25% was used in determining the accumulated
obligation as of December 31, 2002 and 2001.

     CONTINGENCIES

There are currently no environmental claims against the Company for the costs of
environmental remediation measures taken or to be taken. The Company is
operating under a consent decree related to its Michigan manufacturing facility
for environmental matters that occurred prior to the acquisition by American
Industrial Partners in 1995. Independent environmental consultants have assessed
the environmental matters. Based on this assessment and management's best
estimates of the liability associated with these matters, reserves for such
liabilities have been established and no insurance recoveries have been
anticipated in determining the reserves. A previous owner, PolyOne, has agreed
to indemnify the Company for certain costs associated with these matters. At
December 31, 2002, a $215 indemnification receivable is recorded. Management
believes that this receivable is fully realizable. In management's opinion, the
aforementioned claims will be resolved without material adverse effect on the
operations, financial position or cash flows of the Company.

From time to time, the Company is involved in various legal proceedings arising
in the ordinary course of business. None of the matters in which the Company is
currently involved, either individually or in the aggregate, is expected to have
a material adverse effect on the Company's business or financial condition.

Directors of the Company to be such number as designated by GSC Partners, which

<PAGE>

In the Stockholders Agreement, the Management Stockholders have agreed, except
under certain circumstances, not to transfer shares of Common Stock, or options
to acquire Common Stock, prior to the later to occur of (i) the fifth
anniversary of the date of the Stockholders Agreement and (ii) the consummation
of a public offering. In addition, under the Stockholders Agreement, if a
Management Stockholder's employment is terminated, the Company shall have the
right to purchase all or part of the shares of the Common Stock owned by such
Management Stockholder and the vested options to acquire Common Stock owned by
such Management Stockholder, at prices calculated in accordance with, and
subject to certain other terms and conditions set forth in, the terms of the
Stockholders Agreement.

The Stockholders Agreement creates certain conventional "drag" and "tag" rights
with respect to the shares of the Common Stock owned by the Management
Stockholders. The Stockholders Agreement also provides that at any time after
the Acquisition Closing Date, GSC Partners shall have the right to require the
Company to effect up to two registrations of their Common Stock on Form S-1
under the Securities Act and, if available, unlimited registrations on Form S-2
or S-3 under the Securities Act; from and after a public offering, SGCP shall
have the right to require the Company to effect up to two registrations of the
Common Stock on Form S-3 under the Securities Act and that the Company shall pay
all registration expenses in connection with each registration of shares of the
Common Stock pursuant to the Stockholders Agreement.

ITEM 13. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS

The Company has engaged GSC Partners and SGCP, pursuant to the Management
Agreement, to provide it with certain business, financial and managerial
advisory services, including developing and implementing corporate and business
strategy and providing other consulting and advisory services. The Management
Agreement provides for an annual fee of $1.0 million and contains
indemnification and expense reimbursement provisions that are customary for
management agreements of this type. The Management Agreement will continue in
full force and effect, and shall terminate upon, the earlier to occur of (i)
January 18, 2008, and (ii) the date on which the affiliates of GSC Partners no
longer, directly or indirectly, own any shares of capital stock of the Company,
and may be earlier terminated by GSC Partners, in its sole discretion.

ITEM 14. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

The Company maintains a system of internal accounting controls designed to
provide reasonable assurance that transactions are properly recorded and
summarized so that reliable financial records and reports can be prepared and
assets safeguarded. In addition, a system of disclosure controls is maintained
to ensure that information required to be disclosed is recorded, processed,
summarized and reported in a timely manner to management responsible for the
preparation and reporting of the Company's financial information.

Management assesses the internal control and disclosure control systems as being
effective as they encompass material matters for the year ended December 31,
2002. There were no changes in the internal control and disclosure control
systems subsequent to December 31, 2002, that would significantly affect the
control systems.
