engineered rubber cots and aprons sold to textile yarn spinners and other
engineered rubber products sold to diverse markets. The Varn segment designs,

E.       CONTINGENCIES

Claims have been made against the Company for the costs of environmental
remedial measures taken or to be taken. Reserves for such liabilities have been
established and no insurance recoveries have been anticipated in the
determination of the reserves. In management's opinion, the aforementioned
claims will be resolved without material adverse effect on the results of
operations, financial position or cash flows of the Company. A previous owner,
M.A. Hanna, has agreed to indemnify the Company for certain of the costs
associated with these matters.

F.       NEW ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES

In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 133, "Accounting for Derivatives
Instruments and Hedging Activities." SFAS No. 133 will be effective for the
Company as of January 1, 2001. The Company is evaluating the impact of SFAS No.
133 on its financial statements and risk management practices. This Statement is
not expected to have a material impact on the Company's consolidated results of
operations, financial position or cash flows.

In December 1999, the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"), issued Staff
Accounting Bulletin ("SAB") No. 101, "Revenue Recognition in Financial
Statements." The SAB clarifies the SEC's position on various revenue recognition
issues and allows until the fourth quarter of the year ending December 31, 2000,
for companies to comply with the guidance. The Company does not expect the SAB
to have an impact on its consolidated results of operations, financial position
or cash flows as its revenue recognition policies are in compliance with the
guidance.

G.       SUPPLEMENTAL CONSOLIDATING INFORMATION

The Company has outstanding $100,000, 11-1/8% Senior Notes and $115,000, 9 1/2%
Senior Subordinated Notes (collectively, the "Notes"). The Company has no assets
or operations other than its wholly-owned investment in Day International, Inc.
("Day International" or "Guarantor"). Day International has provided a full and
unconditional guarantee of the Notes. The wholly-owned foreign subsidiaries of
Day International are not guarantors with respect to the Notes and do not have
any credit arrangements senior to the Notes. The only intercompany eliminations
are the normal intercompany eliminations with regard to intercompany sales and
the Company's investment in its wholly-owned subsidiaries. Intercompany notes
are in place which effectively transfer the interest expense from the Company to
Day International. The following are the supplemental combining condensed
balance sheets as of September 30, 2000 and December 31, 1999, and the
supplemental combining condensed statements of operations and cash flows for the
three months and nine months ended September 30, 2000 and 1999, with the
investments in the subsidiaries accounted for using the equity method. Separate
complete financial statements of the Guarantor are not presented because
management has determined that they are not material to the investors.

COMPARISON OF RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Three Months Ended September 30, 2000 Compared to Three Months Ended September
30, 1999

Net sales increased to $69.8 million for the three months ended September 30,
2000, from $44.6 million for the comparable period in 1999, an increase of $25.2
million or 56.5%. Image Transfer's sales increased to $40.1 million for the
three months ended September 30, 2000, from $37.4 million for the comparable
period in 1999, an increase of $2.7 million or 7.4%. Image Transfer sales
increased as a result of higher volumes across all markets, offset by a negative
impact of $1.5 million related to foreign currency rate changes compared to the
same period in 1999. Textile Products' sales increased to $13.9 million for the
three months ended September 30, 2000, from $7.2 million for the comparable
period in 1999, an increase of $6.7 million or 94.0%. Textile Products' sales
increased primarily as a result of the purchase of TPO in late 1999. The
acquisition of Varn contributed $15.8 million of net sales in the three months
ended September 30, 2000.

Gross profit increased $11.2 million to $27.8 million for the three months ended
September 30, 2000, from $16.6 million for the three months ended September 30,
1999, primarily as a result of the acquired operations of TPO and Varn in the
three months ended September 30, 2000 and the increase in Image Transfer sales.
As a percentage of net sales, gross profit increased to 39.9% for the three
months ended September 30, 2000, compared to 37.4% for the three months ended
September 30, 1999, primarily as a result of improved margins in the Textile
Products business realized from efficiencies generated in combining TPO with the
Company's existing Textile Products business.

Selling, general and administrative expense ("SG&A") increased to $14.5 million
for the three months ended September 30, 2000, from $7.4 million for the
comparable period in 1999, an increase of $7.1 million or 96.4%. Varn and TPO
accounted for the majority of the increase. As a percentage of net sales, SG&A
increased to approximately 20.9% from 16.6%. The increase in SG&A as a percent
of sales is a result of higher selling costs of Varn as compared to the other
segments. Foreign currency rate changes had a minimal impact on SG&A in the
third quarter of 2000 compared to the third quarter of 1999.

Amortization of intangibles increased to $1.1 million for the three months ended
September 30, 2000, from $0.9 million for the comparable period in 1999, an
increase of $0.2 million. The increase is a result of the amortization of
intangibles from the Varn acquisition.

Operating profit increased to $11.9 million for the three months ended September
30, 2000, from $8.0 million, for the comparable period in 1999, an increase of
$3.9 million or 48.1%. As a percentage of net sales, operating profit decreased
to 17.1% for the three months ended September 30, 2000, from 17.9% for the
comparable period in 1999.

Other expense was $1.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2000,
compared to $0.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 1999. The
increase was 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 effective tax rate for the third quarter of 2000 was 31.3% compared to 43.3%
for the third quarter of 1999. The lower effective tax rate in 2000 resulted
primarily from the tax benefit of the foreign currency transaction losses in
countries with higher tax rates.

Nine Months Ended September 30, 2000 Compared to Nine Months Ended September 30,
1999

Net sales increased to $210.5 million for the nine months ended September 30,
2000, from $130.7 million for the comparable period in 1999, an increase of
$79.8 million or 61.1%. Image Transfer's sales increased to $118.2 million for
the nine months ended September 30, 2000, from $108.7 million for the comparable
period in 1999, an increase of $9.5 million or 8.7%. Image Transfer sales
increased as a result of higher volumes across all markets, offset by a negative
impact of $3.7 million related to foreign currency translation rate changes
compared to the same period in 1999. Textile Products' sales increased to $43.8
million for the nine months ended September 30, 2000, from $21.9 million for the
comparable period in 1999, an increase of $21.9 million or 99.7%. Textile
Products' sales increased primarily as a result of the purchase of TPO in late
1999. The acquisition of Varn contributed $48.5 million of net sales in the nine
months ended September 30, 2000.

Gross profit increased $34.6 million to $83.5 million for the nine months ended
September 30, 2000, from $48.9 million for the nine months ended September 30,
1999, primarily as a result of the acquired operations of TPO and Varn in the
nine months ended September 30, 2000 and the increase in Image Transfer sales.
As a percentage of net sales, gross profit increased to 39.7% for the nine
months ended September 30, 2000, compared to 37.4% for the nine months ended
September 30, 1999, primarily as a result of improved margins in the Textile
Products business realized from efficiencies generated in combining TPO with the
Company's existing Textile Products business.

Selling, general and administrative expense ("SG&A") increased to $44.6 million
for the nine months ended September 30, 2000, from $22.8 million for the
comparable period in 1999, an increase of $21.8 million or 95.7%. Varn and TPO
accounted for almost the entire increase. As a percentage of net sales, SG&A
increased to approximately 21.2% from 17.4%. The increase in SG&A as a percent
of sales is a result of higher selling costs of Varn as compared to the other
segments.

Amortization of intangibles increased to $3.2 million for the nine months ended
September 30, 2000, from $2.7 million for the comparable period in 1999, an
increase of $0.5 million. The increase is a result of the amortization of
intangibles from the Varn acquisition.

Operating profit increased to $34.9 million for the nine months ended September
30, 2000, from $22.6 million, for the comparable period in 1999, an increase of
$12.3 million or 54.2%. As a percentage of net sales, operating profit decreased
to 16.6% for the nine months ended September 30, 2000, from 17.3% for the
comparable period in 1999.

Other expense was $5.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2000,
compared to $0.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 1999. The
increase was 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 effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 was 31.6%
compared to 45.2% for the nine months ended September 30, 1999. The lower
effective tax rate in 2000 resulted primarily from the tax benefit of the
foreign currency transaction losses in countries with higher tax rates.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Company has historically generated sufficient funds from its operations to
fund its working capital and capital expenditure requirements. Utilizing
converters and distributors to distribute the majority of its products, the
Company is able to maintain relatively minimal 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.

Cash Flows From Operating Activities. Cash flows provided by operations for the
nine months ended September 30, 2000 and 1999, were $15.0 million and $6.9
million, respectively. The increase is primarily due to operating cash flows
from the businesses acquired in 1999.

Cash Flows From Investing Activities. Capital expenditures were $5.2 million and
$4.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 and 1999,
respectively.

Cash Flows From Financing Activities. In the nine months ended September 30,
2000, the Company paid $1.5 million on its Revolving Credit Facility. The
Company paid $4.4 million on its outstanding term loan and capital lease in the
nine months ended September 30, 2000. As of September 30, 2000, there was $4.0
million outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility and the Company had
approximately $14.9 million available under the Revolving Credit Facility
(calculated by applying the applicable borrowing base limitation).

The Company's aggregate indebtedness at September 30, 2000, is approximately
$274.0 million and the aggregate liquidation preferences of the Exchangeable
Preferred Stock is $47.6 million and the Convertible Preferred Stock is $45.1
million. The Company is highly leveraged. The Company's ability to operate its
business, service its debt requirements and reduce its total debt 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. See the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for a more extensive
discussion of liquidity and capital resources.

ITEM 3.  QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

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 foreign
operations are mitigated due to the political and economic stability of the
countries in which its largest foreign 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, management does not expect the
longer-term economic effect of these changes to 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 in foreign
currencies, mainly intercompany transactions. 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. The Company has entered into forward foreign exchange contracts to
protect it against such foreign exchange movements. The contract amount of these
foreign exchange contracts was approximately $4.1 million at September 30, 2000
and approximately $0.9 million at December 31, 1999. These contracts generally
expire within three to twelve months. Foreign currency transaction losses,
included in other (income) expense, were $6.0 million in 2000 and $0.3 million
in 1999.

INTEREST RATE RISKS

The Company is subject to market risk from exposure to changes in interest
rates. The Company has the Notes and the Revolving Credit Facility to maintain
the desired level of exposure to risk of interest rate fluctuations and to
minimize interest expense. 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. The Company does not expect changes in interest rates to have a
material effect on income or cash flows in 2000, although there can be no
assurances that interest rates will not materially change.



                                       20
<PAGE>   21


COMMODITY RISKS

Rubber polymers and fabrics are key components in most of the Company's Image
Transfer and Textile products. The Company is exposed to changes in the costs of
these components. Varn is exposed to changes in the cost of certain
petroleum-based components. The largest raw material component in Varn's
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. During the year, the Company has instituted several price increases
to offset the impact of increases in petroleum prices on its raw material costs.
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 impact until sales price increases take
effect, but overall would not have a material effect on income or cash flows for
a fiscal year.
