               CADMUS COMMUNICATIONS CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
              NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                   (Unaudited)

1.   The accompanying  unaudited condensed  consolidated financial statements of
     Cadmus  Communications  Corporation and Subsidiaries  have been prepared in
     accordance  with  generally  accepted  accounting  principles  for  interim
     financial reporting, and with applicable quarterly reporting regulations of
     the  Securities  and  Exchange  Commission.  They do not include all of the
     information  and  footnotes  required  by  generally  accepted   accounting
     principles for complete financial  statements and,  accordingly,  should be
     read in conjunction with the consolidated  financial statements and related
     footnotes  included  in the  Company's  annual  report  on Form 10K for the
     fiscal year ended June 30, 1998.

     In the  opinion  of  management,  all  adjustments  (consisting  of  normal
     recurring  adjustments)  considered  necessary for a fair  presentation  of
     interim financial information have been included. The results of operations
     for the period ended December 31, 1998, are not  necessarily  indicative of
     results for the entire fiscal year.

2.   Basic  earnings  per share is  computed  on the  basis of  weighted-average
     common  shares  outstanding  from the date of issue.  Diluted  earnings per
     share  is  computed  on  the  basis  of   weighted-average   common  shares
     outstanding  plus common  shares  contingently  issuable  upon  exercise of
     dilutive  stock  options.  Incremental  shares for dilutive  stock options,
     computed under the treasury stock method,  were 179,000 and 300,000 for the
     three  months  ended,  and 236,000  and  290,000  for the six months  ended
     December 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively.

3.   In August 1998, the Board of Directors  approved an extension to August 31,
     1999, of its fiscal 1997 stock repurchase plan. Under the plan, the Company
     is authorized to repurchase up to 750,000 shares of its common stock. As of
     December 31, 1998, approximately 297,000 shares have been repurchased under
     this plan.

4.   On April 1, 1998, the Company acquired Germersheim,  Inc., an Atlanta-based
     national point of purchase marketing service provider for $13.7 million. Of
     $11 million in cash  payments made during fiscal 1998, $2 million were held
     in escrow at June 30, 1998, as contingent consideration only to be released
     if specified  performance levels are met during each of the next two years.
     On August 31, 1998,  the Company,  the seller and the Escrow Agent  amended
     certain terms and conditions of the purchase and escrow agreements  related
     to this acquisition.  Pursuant to these amendments,  the Company issued, in
     the name of the seller,  93,500 shares of the Company's common stock, at an
     aggregate  market value of $2 million,  and  delivered  these shares to the
     Escrow Agent in exchange  for the $2 million of cash held in escrow.  These
     "Escrow Shares" are subject to certain terms and restrictions,  as outlined
     in the amended purchase and escrow agreements, and are held in escrow as of
     December 31, 1998,  as  contingent  consideration,  to be released  only if
     specified performance levels are met during each of the next two years.

Cadmus Communications Corporation provides customers with integrated, end-to-end
information and communications  solutions that involve a full range of creative,
production  and  distribution  services.  The  Company is  organized  around two
business  sectors:  Professional  Communications,  serving customers who publish
information,   and  Marketing  Communications,   serving  customers  who  convey
marketing  messages.  Headquartered  in Richmond,  Virginia,  Cadmus is the 25th
largest graphic communications company in North America.

ORGANIZATIONAL STRUCTURE
The Company's current  organizational  structure was effected during fiscal 1997
when it announced a major restructuring plan. The plan enabled Cadmus to exit or
reshape  those  businesses  that  were  not  performing  or were not core to its
strategy,  and to  create a more  efficient  and cost  effective  organizational
structure.  In conjunction with the restructuring,  the Company  reorganized its
organizational   and   operational   structure   to  form  Cadmus   Professional
Communications  and Cadmus  Marketing  Communications.  The  Company's  previous
organizational  structure consisted of the Periodicals,  Graphic Communications,
Marketing, and Publishing groups.

Cadmus  Professional  Communications  provides  a  full  range  of  composition,
editorial,  production,  distribution,  and related  services for  publishers of
scientific,  technical and medical journals, magazines, association publications
and commercial publications. Cadmus Marketing Communications provides commercial
printing, graphic solutions, print and broadcast advertising,  direct marketing,
catalog  and  collateral  design,  custom  publication  development,   financial
communication,  point of purchase,  specialty packaging,  promotional  printing,
software duplication and distribution, and interactive services to customers who
convey marketing messages.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (continued)

Sales
Sales for the second quarter of fiscal 1999 were $108.8 million,  a 13% increase
from sales of $96.0 million in the second quarter of fiscal 1998.  Sales for the
first six months of fiscal 1999  increased 11% to $208.6  million.  The increase
for the three and six-month  periods was driven  primarily by double digit sales
growth  from  the  Graphic  Solutions  and  Packaging  &  Promotional   Printing
businesses,  higher  research  journal  sales,  and the inclusion of Germersheim
Point of Purchase operations. Adjusted for the acquisition of Germersheim, Inc.,
sales growth was 5% for the quarter and  six-month  periods  ended  December 31,
1998.

Sales for the  Marketing  Communications  sector rose 25% and 22% for the second
quarter  and first six months of fiscal  1999,  respectively.  The  Packaging  &
Promotional group, including the Technology Solutions division, recorded a sales
increase  of 44% for the second  quarter of fiscal  1999 and a 29%  increase  in
sales year to date over the prior year. These increases were attributable to the
addition of new clients, and increased work from existing clients, made possible
by increased  manufacturing and sales capacity.  In the Graphic Solutions group,
the addition of new clients, growth from existing clients, and the impact of the
Company's  acquisition  of certain of the assets of Beacon Press  contributed to
sales  increases of 37% for the second  quarter and 26% for the first six months
of fiscal  1999  compared  to the prior  year.  The Point of  Purchase  business
reported  sales  increases of 142% and 120% for the second quarter and first six
months  of  fiscal  1999,  respectively,  as a result  of the  inclusion  of the
Germersheim  sales as well as internal  sales  growth.  Sales for the  Financial
Communications  group  declined  during the second quarter and year to date over
the   comparable   prior  year  periods,   primarily  due  to  lower   financial
transactional volume as a result of soft capital markets activity. Adjusting for
the acquisition of Germersheim,  overall sales for the Marketing  Communications
sector increased by 9% for the second quarter and year to date periods of fiscal
1999.

In the Professional  Communications  sector, sales rose 3% and 2% for the second
quarter  and first six months of fiscal  1999,  respectively.  This  increase in
sales primarily was attributable to internal sales growth in research  journals.
Magazine sales essentially were flat compared to the prior year.

Operating Expenses

Cost of sales  increased to 80.2% and 79.8% of net sales for the second  quarter
and first six months of fiscal 1999,  respectively,  compared to 77.4% and 77.6%
for the same periods of fiscal 1998. The increase  primarily was attributable to
two factors:  (i) the negative  impact of lower financial  transactional  volume
this year because of soft capital  markets  activity,  and (ii) higher costs and
certain production inefficiencies associated with the integration of Germersheim
into the Point of Purchase  operations.  Partially  offsetting these factors was
continued gross margin  improvement in the  Professional  Communications  sector
resulting  from   restructuring-related   savings  and  continued  manufacturing
productivity improvements,  as well as gross margin improvement in CadmusCom due
to an improved business mix and lower operating costs.

Selling and administrative  expenses,  as a percentage of net sales, declined to
12.9% and 13.5% in the  second  quarter  and  first six  months of fiscal  1999,
respectively,  from 15.5% and 15.8% for the same  periods of fiscal  1998.  This
improvement was largely attributable to better leverage from the steady top-line
sales growth,  lower selling costs in the Financial  Communications  group,  and
lower  selling and  administrative  expenses  in the Point of Purchase  business
resulting from integration of Germersheim.  In addition,  incentive compensation

                                       10
<PAGE>

and   discretionary   benefits  were  lower,   reflecting   lower  than  planned
profitability   during  the  first  six  months  of  fiscal  1999.  These  lower
compensation  and benefit costs also led to reduced  selling and  administrative
expenses.

Operating  income rose 10% in the second  quarter to $7.4 million and 12% in the
first six months to $14.0 million of fiscal 1999 compared to the same periods of
fiscal 1998.

Interest and Other Expenses and Income Taxes

Interest expense  increased $0.2 million and $0.4 million for the second quarter
and  first six  months of fiscal  1999  over the same  periods  last  year.  The
increase in interest  expense is due to higher debt levels  resulting  primarily
from recent  acquisitions  and additional  working capital  requirements for the
first six months of fiscal 1999.  Total debt as of the end of the second quarter
of fiscal 1999 was $112.0  million  compared to $93.8  million at the end of the
prior year second quarter.

The effective income tax rate remained unchanged at 38.5% for the second quarter
and first six months of fiscal 1999 and fiscal 1998.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Management  believes that the Company has the financial  resources and access to
capital necessary to fund internal growth and acquisitions.  The Company's major
demands on capital are  investments in property,  plant and  equipment,  working
capital, and acquisitions.

Net cash provided by operating activities totaled $3.2 million for the first six
months  of  fiscal  1999,  as  compared  to $17.1  million  in the  prior  year,
representing a $13.9 million reduction in cash provided by operating activities.
This  change was brought  about  primarily  from  increases  in working  capital
demands in the first half of fiscal 1999 which included i) seasonal increases in
receivables  due to higher  revenues over the prior quarter and  pre-billings to
customers, ii) seasonal increases to work in process and paper inventory levels,
iii) final  payments on certain  production  equipment  purchased in late fiscal
1998, and iv) payment of fiscal year 1998 sales and management  incentives.  The
decrease in cash provided by operating  activities as compared to the prior year
was partially  offset by a reduction in cash  outflows  related to the Company's
restructure  plans  announced  in the fourth  quarters of fiscal  years 1998 and
1997, and by a decrease in the required cash  contribution to fund the Company's
pension plan.

Net cash used in investing  activities  totaled  $10.5 million for the first six
months of fiscal 1999,  and included  $3.5 million of cash paid for the purchase
of the assets of Beacon  Press,  Incorporated.  Capital  expenditures  primarily
consisted  of  investments  in new presses and new  business  and  manufacturing
systems.

Net cash  provided by  financing  activities  was $7.6 million for the first six
months of fiscal 1999  compared to $3.0 million used in financing  activities in
the same period of the prior year.  The Company  increased  borrowings  by $10.2
million in the first six months of fiscal  1999  primarily  to fund the  working
capital requirements and acquisition  described above.  Additional uses of funds
include the repurchase of 201,500 shares of the Company's  common stock for $3.9
million, and dividend payments of $.8 million.

Total debt at December 31, 1998, was $112.0  million,  up from $101.8 million at
June 30, 1998 primarily due to seasonal working capital  requirements  described

                                       11
<PAGE>

above.  As a result of the increased  debt level,  the  Company's  debt to total
capital  ratio  increased to 49.8% at December 31, 1998,  from 48.1% at June 30,
1998.
