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


1.   The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of Cadmus
     Communications Corporation (the "Company") 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 10-K for the
     fiscal year ended June 30, 1999.

     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, 1999, are not necessarily indicative of
     results for the entire fiscal year.

     Certain previously reported amounts have been reclassified to conform to
     the current-year presentation.

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 0 and 179,000 for the three
     months ended, and 0 and 236,000 for the six months ended December 31, 1999
     and 1998, respectively.

3.   Components of net inventories at December 31, 1999 and June 30, 1999, were
     as follows (in thousands):

                                           ==========       =========

4.   The Company is organized around two business groups: Professional
     Communications, serving customers who publish information, and Marketing
     Communications, serving customers who convey marketing messages.
     Professional Communications, which serves both not-for-profit and
     commercial publishers, is comprised of three product lines: STM journal
     services, special interest magazines, and soft cover books/directories.
     Professional Communications provides a full range of composition,
     editorial, prepress, printing, warehousing and distribution services. In
     addition, this group provides a full complement of digital products and
     services, including website design and architecture, content management,
     Internet and CD ROM-based electronic archiving, electronic peer review and
     online publishing. Marketing Communications includes specialty packaging,
     promotional printing, and business-to-business catalog production.

     The accounting policies for the groups are the same as those described in
     Note 1 "Significant Accounting Policies" in the fiscal 1999 Annual Report
     on Form 10-K. The Company primarily evaluates the performance of its
     operating groups based on operating income, excluding amortization of
     goodwill and restructuring charges. Intergroup sales for the second quarter
     and first

                                       7

5.   In October 1999, the Company announced organizational changes and a
     restructuring plan intended to 1) effect additional planned synergies in
     connection with its April 1999 acquisition of the Mack Printing Group
     ("Mack") and 2) focus the Company's resources on the professional
     communications and specialty packaging markets. The restructuring plan has
     the following broad components:

          .  closing the Atlanta-based Cadmus Point of Purchase ("POP") business
             unit;

                                       8
<PAGE>

          .  implementing additional, planned synergies associated with the
             integration of Mack;
          .  divesting the Company's Richmond- and Charlotte-based marketing
             agencies;
          .  consolidating certain corporate functions and overhead.

     As of December 31, 1999, the following restructuring actions had taken
     place:

          .  The POP business unit was closed in October, 1999.
          .  The consolidation of two composition facilities in Lancaster,
             Pennsylvania was substantially completed.
          .  The Richmond agency business was closed in July, 1999, and the
             Company sold its Charlotte-based agency operation in September,
             1999.
          .  The Company consolidated certain corporate functions, including
             eliminating the overhead associated with its Marketing
             Communications sector.

     The Company recorded first quarter restructuring and other charges totaling
     $16.6 million ($14.1 million net of taxes). These charges included the
     write-off of intangible assets related to the Company's POP business of
     $11.1 million, the write-off of redundant manufacturing software resulting
     from the integration of Mack of $6.2 million, and a net gain from the
     closure and divestiture of the two marketing businesses of $0.7 million.

     The Company recorded second quarter restructuring and other charges
     totaling $16.0 million ($10.0 million net of taxes). These charges related
     to the closure of the company's POP business, the consolidation of two
     composition facilities, and the consolidation of certain corporate
     functions and overhead. Total restructuring and other charges in the second
     quarter consisted of asset write-downs of $7.9 million, involuntary
     termination costs of $4.5 million, contract termination costs of $3.0
     million, and other post closure shutdown costs of $0.6 million. Involuntary
     termination costs relate to approximately 170 associates located primarily
     at the POP business, two composition facilities, and the corporate
     location. For the six month period ended December 31, 1999, the company
     made severance payments totaling $2.1 million to approximately 150
     associates. The $5.5 million restructuring reserve at December 31, 1999 is
     comprised of the following: $2.4 million for involuntary termination costs,
     $1.7 million for contract termination costs, and $1.4 million for other
     post closure shutdown costs.

     The Company expects an additional pre-tax charge of approximately $2
     million in the third quarter of fiscal 2000, related to the additional
     reductions in force in connection with the restructuring plan, and
     anticipates all restructuring actions will be completed over the next 12
     months.

6.   The Company entered into a receivables securitization program on October
     26, 1999. Under the program, the Company entered into an agreement to sell,
     on a revolving basis, certain of its accounts receivable to a wholly-owned
     subsidiary, which entered into an agreement to transfer, on a revolving
     basis, an undivided percentage ownership interest in a designated pool of
     accounts receivable to an unrelated third party purchaser up to a maximum
     of $35.0 million. These transactions are accounted for as a sale of
     accounts receivable. At December 31, 1999, $27.3 million of accounts
     receivable had been sold and reflected as a reduction of accounts
     receivable, the proceeds of which were used to repay a corresponding amount
     of the term loan facility under the senior bank credit facility. The fees
     arising from the securitization transaction of $0.4 million are reported as
     securitization costs on the condensed consolidated statements of income for
     the quarter ended December 31, 1999. These fees vary based on commercial
     paper rates plus a margin, providing a lower effective rate than that
     available under the Company's senior bank credit facility. The Company
     maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts based on the expected
     collectibility of all accounts receivable, including receivables sold.

                ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
                 FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


GENERAL
Headquartered in Richmond, Virginia, Cadmus Communications Corporation provides
customers with integrated, end-to-end information and communications solutions.
The Company has been organized around two primary business groups:  Professional
Communications, serving customers who publish information, and Marketing
Communications, serving customers who convey marketing messages.  In October
1999, the Company announced organizational changes and a restructuring plan
intended to 1) effect additional planned synergies in connection with its April
1999 acquisition of the Mack Printing Group ("Mack") and 2) focus the Company's
resources on the professional communications and specialty packaging markets.
The restructuring plan has the following broad components:

     .  closing the Atlanta-based Cadmus Point of Purchase ("POP") business
        unit;
     .  implementing additional, planned synergies associated with the
        integration of Mack;
     .  divesting the Company's Richmond- and Charlotte-based marketing
        agencies; and
     .  consolidating certain corporate functions and overhead.

The company estimates that the annualized improvement in operating income from
its restructuring plan will exceed $6 million and that it also will achieve
approximately $1 million in annual interest savings.

As of December 31, 1999, the following restructuring actions had taken place:

     .  The POP business unit was closed in October, 1999.
     .  The consolidation of two composition facilities in Lancaster,
        Pennsylvania was substantially completed.
     .  The Richmond agency business was closed in July, 1999, and the Company
        sold its Charlotte-based agency operation in September, 1999.
     .  The Company consolidated certain corporate functions, including
        eliminating the overhead associated with its Marketing Communications
        sector.

The Company expects an additional pre-tax charge of approximately $2 million in
the third quarter of fiscal 2000, related to the additional reductions in force
in connection with the restructuring plan, and anticipates all restructuring
actions will be completed over the next 12 months.

Cadmus is the largest provider of production services to scientific, technical
and medical journal publishers in the world, the fourth largest publications
printer in North America, and a leading national provider of specialty packaging
products and services.

Sales

Sales for the second quarter of fiscal 2000 were $131.4 million, a 21% increase
from sales of $108.8 million in the second quarter of fiscal 1999. Sales for the
first six months of fiscal 2000 increased 23% to $256.2 million. The increase
for the three and six-month periods was driven by double-digit sales growth from
the specialty packaging and graphic solutions businesses, as well as the
incremental contribution from the Mack acquisition. Adjusted for the acquisition
of Mack, and businesses divested since a year ago, net sales increased 9% for
the three and six months periods ended December 31, 1999.

Professional Communications sales rose 79% and 75% for the second quarter and
first six months of fiscal 2000, respectively, compared to the prior year.
Adjusted for the acquisition of Mack, sales decreased by 3% for both the second
quarter and six months ended December 31, 1999. The primary causes for the
decrease in sales were lower paper prices and lower than expected net new
business.

In the Marketing Communications group, the Company's specialty packaging
business recorded an increase in sales of 48% in the second quarter of fiscal
2000, and a 44% increase in sales year to date over the prior year. The graphic
solutions business experienced a 10% increase in sales for both the second
quarter and first six months of fiscal 2000, compared to the prior year. These
increases were due primarily to expanded volume in both new and existing
accounts. Divested and closed operations contributed $2.9 million and $12.3
million in sales to the second quarter and first six months of fiscal 2000,
respectively, compared to $29.6 million and $57.1 million in the corresponding
periods of the prior year.

Gross Profit

Gross profit increased to 22.0% and 21.4% of net sales for the second quarter
and first six months of fiscal 2000, respectively, compared to 20.1% and 20.4%
for the same periods of fiscal 1999. The improvement in gross profit margins was
the result of the inclusion of Mack in the first two quarters of fiscal 2000.

Selling and Administrative Expenses

Selling and administrative expenses, as a percentage of net sales, were 13.6%
for the second quarter of fiscal 2000, and remained relatively unchanged from
the same period of the prior year.  Year to date, selling and administrative
expenses totaled $35.4 million, up 20% from $29.5 million in the prior year. For
the first six months of fiscal 2000, selling and administrative expenses, as a
percentage of sales, decreased to 13.8% from 14.1% last year.  This decline was
primarily attributable to the favorable impact resulting from the acquisition of
Mack and divestitures in the marketing business.  Partially offsetting these
benefits was higher goodwill amortization expense related to the Mack
acquisition.

Restructuring and Other Charges

In October 1999, the Company announced organizational changes and a
restructuring plan intended to 1) effect additional planned synergies in
connection with its April 1999 acquisition of Mack and 2) focus the Company's
resources on the professional communications and specialty packaging markets.
The restructuring plan has the following broad components:

     .  closing the Atlanta-based Cadmus Point of Purchase business unit;
     .  implementing additional, planned synergies associated with the
        integration of Mack;
     .  divesting the Company's Richmond- and Charlotte-based marketing agencies
     .  consolidating certain corporate functions and overhead

As of December 31, 1999, the following restructuring actions had taken place:

     .  The POP business unit was closed in October, 1999.
     .  The consolidation of two composition facilities in Lancaster,
        Pennsylvania was substantially completed.
     .  The Richmond agency business was closed in July, 1999, and the Company
        sold its Charlotte-based agency operation in September, 1999.
     .  The Company consolidated certain corporate functions, including
        eliminating the overhead associated with its Marketing Communications
        sector.

The Company recorded first quarter restructuring and other charges totaling
$16.6 million ($14.1 million net of taxes).  These charges included the write-
off of intangible assets related to the Company's POP business of $11.1 million,
the write-off of redundant manufacturing software resulting from the integration
of Mack of $6.2 million, and a net gain from the closure and divestiture of the
two marketing businesses of $0.7 million.

The Company recorded second quarter restructuring and other charges totaling
$16.0 million ($10.0 million net of taxes).  These charges related to the
closure of the company's POP business, the consolidation of two composition
facilities, and the consolidation of certain corporate functions and overhead.
Total restructuring and other charges in the second quarter consisted of asset
write-downs of $7.9 million, involuntary termination costs of $4.5 million,
contract termination costs of $3.0 million, and other post closure shutdown
costs of $0.6 million.  Involuntary termination costs relate to approximately
170 associates located primarily at the POP business, two composition
facilities, and the corporate location.  For the six month period ended December
31, 1999, the company made severance payments totaling $2.1 million to
approximately 150 associates.  The $5.5 million restructuring reserve at
December 31, 1999 is comprised of the following:  $2.4 million for involuntary
termination costs, $1.7 million for contract termination costs, and $1.4 million
for other post closure shutdown costs.

The Company expects an additional pre-tax charge of approximately $2 million in
the third quarter of fiscal 2000, related to the additional reductions in force
in connection with the restructuring plan, and anticipates all restructuring
actions will be completed over the next 12 months.

Operating Income

The Company recorded an operating loss of $5.0 million for the second quarter of
fiscal 2000 and a $13.2 million operating loss for the six month period ended
December 31, 1999, due to restructuring charges related to actions taken in the
first two quarters of fiscal 2000.  Excluding restructuring and other charges,
operating income rose to 8.4% and 7.6% of net sales for the second quarter and
first six months of fiscal 2000, up from 6.4% and 6.3% of net sales in the prior
year.

Interest and Other Expenses and Income Taxes

Interest expense increased $3.8 million and $7.8 million for the second quarter
and first six months of fiscal 2000 over the same periods in fiscal 1999.  The
increase in interest expense was due primarily to higher debt levels resulting
from the acquisition of Mack, higher interest rates on the Company's senior
credit facility and senior subordinated notes issued in conjunction with the
Mack acquisition, and higher short-term interest rates in fiscal 2000.

As a result of its implementation of a receivables securitization program with
its leading lenders, the Company incurred $0.4 million in securitization costs
in the second quarter of fiscal 2000.  These fees vary based on commercial paper
rates plus a margin, providing a lower effective rate than that available under
the Company's senior bank credit facility.

The Company recognized income tax benefits at an effective income tax rate of
35.5% and 21.0% for the second quarter and first six months of fiscal 2000,
respectively, compared to an income tax rate of 38.5% in the comparable periods
of fiscal 1999.  The reduction in the effective tax rate for the first six
months of fiscal 2000 is largely attributable to the non-deductibility of
restructuring charges associated with the write-off of certain intangible
assets.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
-------------------------------

Operating Activities

Net cash provided by operating activities for the first six months of fiscal
2000 totaled $18.6 million, compared to $3.2 million for the first six months of
fiscal 1999.  This improvement was primarily attributable to increased earnings
before depreciation, amortization and restructuring charges, partially offset by
deferred taxes.  Changes in assets and liabilities required $3.1 million in cash
during the first six months of fiscal 2000 due to a seasonal increase in
receivables and cash outlays related to the Company's restructuring plan.  This
$11.4 million improvement compared to the first six months of fiscal 1999 was
attributable to 1) improved receivable and inventory management, 2) lower sales
and management incentives in the first half of fiscal 2000, and 3) proceeds
received from loans and death benefits on certain executive life insurance
policies owned by the Company.

Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities was $5.5 million for the first six months
of fiscal 2000, as compared to $10.5 million in the prior year.  Net proceeds
from the sale of the Charlotte-based direct marketing agency in fiscal 2000
totaled $4.1 million. Proceeds from the sale of property, plant and equipment
totaled $2.0 million, and related primarily to the sale of a manufacturing
facility in the POP business.  These cash proceeds were partially offset by
capital expenditures of $9.4 million, which included investments primarily in
prepress and manufacturing equipment, and new business and manufacturing
systems.  Capital expenditures for the first six months of fiscal 1999 totaled
$7.8 million. The Company estimates that capital expenditures for fiscal 2000
will approximate $20 million.  In the first six months of fiscal 2000, the
Company incurred outlays of $2.2 million of additional payments made in
connection with its acquisition of Mack in April, 1999.  Net cash used in
investing activities in fiscal 1999 also included $3.5 million of cash paid for
the purchase of the assets of Beacon Press, Incorporated.

Financing Activities

Net cash used in financing activities was $17.2 million for the first six months
of fiscal 2000 compared to net cash provided by financing activities in fiscal
1999 of $7.6 million.  Short-term borrowings and cash provided by operations
were used to fund working capital requirements, to pay down debt and long-term
leases, and to fund dividend payments.

On October 26, 1999, the Company entered into a receivables securitization
program.  Under the program, the Company entered into an agreement to sell, on a
revolving basis, certain of its accounts receivable to a wholly-owned
subsidiary, which entered into an agreement to transfer, on a revolving basis,
an undivided percentage ownership interest in a designated pool of accounts
receivable to an unrelated third party purchaser up to a maximum of $35.0
million. These transactions are accounted for as a sale of accounts receivable.
At December 31, 1999, $27.3 million of accounts receivable had been sold and
reflected as a reduction of accounts receivable, the proceeds of which were used
to repay a corresponding amount of the term loan facility under the senior bank
credit facility.

For the six months ended December 31, 1998, the Company increased its borrowings
by $10.2 million.  This increase was used primarily to fund the working capital
requirements and acquisitions described above, to fund the repurchase of common
stock for $3.9 million, and to fund dividend payments of $0.8 million.

Total debt at December 31, 1999, was $232.2 million, down $43.7 million from
$275.9 million at June 30, 1999.  The Company's debt to capital ratio was 66.7%
at December 31, 1999, down slightly from 66.9% at June 30, 1999, primarily due
to the reduction in overall debt levels offset by the impact on equity resulting
from restructuring charges recognized in the first six months of fiscal 2000.

The primary cash requirements of the Company are for debt service, capital
expenditures, and working capital.  The primary sources of liquidity will be
cash flow provided by operations and unused capacity under its senior credit and
receivables securitization facilities.  The Company believes that these funds
will provide sufficient liquidity and capital resources to meet the anticipated
debt service requirements, capital expenditures, and working capital
requirements.  The future operating performance and the ability to service or
refinance the Company's debt depends on the ability to implement the business
strategy and on general economic, financial, competitive, legislative,
regulatory and other factors, many of which are beyond the control of the
Company.

YEAR 2000 ISSUE
---------------

The Company's plan for identifying, evaluating and implementing changes to its
computer systems and applications necessary to achieve a Year 2000 date
conversion is presented under the caption "Management's Discussion and Analysis"
in the Company's 1999 Annual Report to Shareholders.  While the Company
recognizes that some errors may not occur until later in the year, to date the
Company has experienced no adverse impact due to the potential errors from
software programs making calculations using the year 2000 date.  The Company
estimates that the total cost of achieving Year 2000 compliance to be
approximately $1.6 million in excess of normal software upgrades and
replacements.

customers or the decrease in demand from existing customers,  (4) the ability of
the Company to continue to obtain improved efficiencies and lower overall
production costs, (5) changes in the Company's product sales mix, (6) the
performance of new management and leadership teams in the Company and its
divisions, (7) the impact of industry consolidation among key customers, (8) the
ability of the Company to operate profitably and effectively with higher levels
of indebtedness, and (9) the ability to retain key employees and managers in
light of lower-than-planned incentives and benefits
