ITEM 1. BUSINESS

A) GENERAL DEVELOPMENT OF BUSINESS

     Moore Corporation Limited, a corporation incorporated under the Business
Corporations Act (Ontario), was established in 1882. Moore is an international
leader in the management and distribution of print and digital information.
Moore operates in three complementary business segments: Forms and Labels,
Outsourcing and Commercial. The Forms and Labels business designs, manufactures
and sells paper based and electronic business forms and labels and provides
electronic print management solutions. The Outsourcing business provides
high-quality, high-volume variably imaged print and mail, electronic statement
and database management services. The Commercial business produces high-quality,
multi-color personalized business communications and provides direct marketing
services, including project, database and list management services.

     In 2001, Moore had net sales of $2,154 million and had approximately 11,500
employees worldwide. Moore has its registered office at 40 King Street West,
Suite 3501, Toronto, Ontario, Canada M5H 3Y2 and its executive offices are
located at One Canterbury Green, Stamford, Connecticut 06901. The Moore internet
address is www.moore.com.

     In late 2000, a new management team was hired by Moore. This new management
team developed a six point action plan for 2001. This plan consisted of:

     (i)      hiring the best managers and employees available in the market and
              holding them accountable for business performance in their area of
              responsibility;

     (ii)     developing a detailed action plan to eliminate at least $100
              million from the cost structure;

     (iii)    selling non-core operations to allow Moore to focus on growing its
              print-related assets;

     (iv)     leveraging corporate purchasing and partnering with suppliers to
              further reduce costs and improve efficiencies;

     (v)      developing a cross-selling program to drive sales growth in the
              three core print related businesses; and

     (vi)     acquiring complementary print-related assets to expand the print
              offerings Moore is able to provide to its customers.

     As part of this six point plan, in 2001 Moore reduced costs by
streamlining operations, controlling budgets and expenses, consolidating
facilities, negotiating more competitive pricing and terms with suppliers and
launching productivity initiatives. In addition, in 2001 Moore sold
non-core assets or assets that were not aligned with its business strategy,
including:

     o        Colleagues, the United Kingdom-based advertising agency
              as well as an investment in an on-line real estate listing company
              (both in the first quarter);

     o        various joint venture interests in Europe and Latin America (in
              the second and third quarters); and

     o        Phoenix, a Detroit-based telemarketing customer relationship
              management business (in the third quarter).

     The last component of the plan began in December with the acquisition of
Document Management Services, the print and mail operation of IBM Canada Ltd.,
to supplement the


                                       1
<PAGE>

Canadian Outsourcing business and create synergy opportunities within our
Canadian Outsourcing operations. In addition, in January 2002, Moore acquired
The Nielsen Company. Nielsen is a commercial printer with operations in Kentucky
and North Carolina. Nielsen specializes in high-quality multicolor printing of
collateral marketing material, consumer product and financial services marketing
pieces, and various products, such as annual reports.

     As a result of these and many related activities, including terminating
unprofitable customer contracts, streamlining operations, consolidating
facilities and reducing headcount, the Corporation incurred $391 million of
pre-tax restructuring and other non-recurring charges during 2001 across all of
its principal operating segments.

     The Corporation is anticipating that further improvements will be made to
its cost structure in 2002 and beyond. These improvements will come from a
variety of initiatives most of which are already underway, including, global
purchasing initiatives, "right-sizing" of the manufacturing facilities, waste
reduction, manufacturing productivity improvements, decreasing sales and
manufacturing errors, energy management, decreased spending on information
technology and the elimination of an additional 1,000 positions as a result of
systems improvements and the centralization of functions.


B) FINANCIAL INFORMATION ABOUT SEGMENTS


In December 2000, the Corporation changed its executive management and the Board
of Directors and established a new strategic initiative that resulted in the
establishment of a new operating platform during the third quarter of 2001. This
realignment was made in order to segregate non-print related businesses and
align core businesses to take advantage of synergies and capitalize on core
competencies. The new segmentation reflects management's current structure with
regard to management's process for making decisions as it relates to resource
allocation and performance evaluation. During 2000, the Corporation operated in
four reportable segments as follows: Moore North America, Customer Communication
Services (United States), Latin America and Europe. Prior year information has
been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation (see Note 19).

     Moore competes on the basis of product quality, service and price,
leveraging its strong customer relationships and its ability to provide
customers with low cost "one-stop shopping" for all their print


                                       4
<PAGE>

communications needs.

     Moore views cross-selling as a key component of its competitive strategy.
In the fourth quarter of 2001, Moore launched a strategic corporate accounts and
cross-selling initiative to drive incremental revenue and profit growth within
the current customer base. This "one-stop shopping" strategy offers the array of
products, services and solutions that exists within Moore to the top corporate
accounts. In connection with this strategy, Moore has implemented a cross-sell
infrastructure, which provides the sales organization with the resources to
leverage a "one voice, multiple solutions" sales philosophy across the entire
organization.

     The "one-stop shopping" offering includes an extensive array of products
and services, including:

     o   forms and labels management,

     o   commercial print,

     o   publications,

     o   warehousing and distribution services,

     o   systems integration,

     o   business communications outsource management,

     o   response marketing services,

     o   corporate identity programs and

     o   e-commerce solutions.

     The environment in each business segment in which Moore operates is highly
competitive. Customers are focused on cost reduction, vendor reduction and
improved total cost of ownership for print communications programs. Moore
encounters competition from both larger and smaller companies that offer the
same or similar products and services. While Moore has a large number of
competitors in each business segment, the markets in which each of its business
segments operates are highly fragmented and the majority of its competitors
compete with Moore in only one business segment. There are approximately 35,000
companies that provide printing services in North America. According to
"Printing Impressions" an industry trade publication, in 2001, 11 of these
companies had revenues over $1 billion, 66 had revenues of between $100 million
and $1 billion, 287 had revenues of between $15 million and $100 million and
34,636 had revenues under $15 million.

RAW MATERIAL

     The primary raw materials required in the Corporation's operations are
paper and ink. The price of paper and ink represents a significant portion of
its cost of sales. Increases in price or a lack of availability of these raw
materials could have a material adverse effect on Moore's financial condition
and results of operations. While Moore generally passes on increases and
decreases in the cost of paper and ink to its customers, these adjustments take
place only at certain times during the year. Moore has reduced the number of
paper and ink vendors to two in order to leverage its purchasing power and has
negotiated long-term supply contracts that provide favorable price, terms,
quality and service. The Corporation has not experienced any difficulties in
obtaining supplies of any raw material in any recent period and it believes that
the long-term supply contracts it has entered into for paper will enable it to
receive adequate supplies in the event of a tight paper market, however, there
can be no assurance that it will not be adversely affected by a tight paper
market.

INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY

     Moore holds a significant number of patents in the United States and
throughout the world, and has a large number of patent applications in process
for its four key technologies. In the Forms and Labels segment, the Corporation
believes that its pressure seal-related patents, linerless label-related patents
and its radio frequency identification-related patents are material to the
segment. The Corporation believes that its Midax variable imaging-related
patents are material to its Outsourcing segment as


                                       5
<PAGE>

well as to the direct mail business of the Commercial segment. The duration of
the Corporation's patents ranges from between 17 and 20 years. No
material patents will expire within the next five years.

     Moore also holds a large number of trademarks in the United States and
throughout the world. The Moore (Registered Trademark) and Moore Logo
(Registered Trademark)  trademarks are material to each of the business
segments. There are not any other trademarks that are material to any of the
business segments.

BACKLOG

     At December 31, 2001, the backlog of firm customer orders to be handled in
the next 120 days was approximately $103 million. The backlog was $129 million
at December 31, 2000.

EMPLOYEES

     At December 31, 2001, the Corporation employed approximately 11,500
employees compared to approximately 16,000 at December 31, 2000. Of these,
approximately 1,200 are covered by collective bargaining agreements with eight
unions (four in Canada, one in Mexico, one in Venezuela and two in Brazil).
These agreements expire in 2002, 2003 and 2005. There have been no significant
interruptions or curtailments of the Corporation's operations in recent years
due to labor disputes.

ENVIRONMENTAL REGULATIONS

     The Corporation is subject to laws and regulations relating to the
protection of the environment. The Corporation maintains reserves for expenses
associated with the environmental remediation obligations when such amounts are
probable and can be reasonably estimated. Such accruals are adjusted as new
information develops or circumstances change and are not discounted. While it is
not possible to quantify with certainty the potential impact of actions
regarding environmental matters, particularly remediation and other compliance
efforts that the Corporation's subsidiaries may undertake in the future, in the
opinion of management, compliance with present environmental protection laws,
before taking into account estimated recoveries from third parties, will not
have a material adverse effect upon the results of operations or consolidated
financial condition of the Corporation. See also, Item 3. "Legal Proceedings"
below.

     In addition, the Corporation has three leased corporate office facilities

ITEM 3.  LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

     In the normal course of business, Moore is involved in various lawsuits,
claims and administrative proceedings. While the outcome of these matters is
subject to future resolution, management's evaluation and analysis of such
matters indicates that, individually and in the aggregate, the probable
ultimate resolution of such matters will not have a material effect on Moore's
financial condition and results of operations.

     Moore has been identified as a Potentially Responsible Party ("PRP") at
the Dover, New Hampshire Municipal Landfill, a United States Environmental
Protection Agency Superfund Site. Moore has been participating with a group of
approximately 26 other PRP's to fund the study of and implement remedial
activities at the site. Remediation at the site has been on-going and is
anticipated to continue for at least several years. The total cost of the
remedial activity is estimated to be approximately $26.0 million. Moore's share
is not expected to exceed $1.5 million. The Corporation believes its reserves
are sufficient based on the present facts and recent tests performed at this
site and will continue to monitor this exposure.

ITEM 4.  SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS

     There were no matters submitted to a vote of the shareholders of the
Corporation during the fourth quarter of 2001.

RECENT SALES OF UNREGISTERED SECURITIES

     On December 21, 2000, the Corporation issued $70.5 million aggregate
principal amount of 8.70% subordinated convertible debentures due June 30, 2009
to Chancery Lane/GSC Investors L.P. In December 2001, the Corporation reached
an agreement with Chancery Lane/GSC Investors L.P. for the conversion of the
subordinated convertible debenture. Under the terms of the debenture, the
debenture was convertible by Chancery Lane/GSC Investors L.P. at any time, but
the Corporation did not have the right to redeem the debenture prior to
December 22, 2005. On December 28, 2001, the debenture was converted into
21,692,311 common shares at the conversion price per share of $3.25 in
accordance with its terms.

     As an inducement to obtain the conversion, the Corporation issued an
additional 1,650,000 common shares (the "additional shares") to Greenwich
Street Capital Partners II, L.P. and certain of its affiliates (collectively,
"GSC Partners"), which under the terms of the agreement governing Chancery
Lane/GSC Investors L.P., were entitled to all of the interest paid on the
debenture and any redemption premium.

     Neither the debenture, the shares underlying the debenture nor the
additional shares were registered under the Securities Act of 1933 when issued
in reliance on the private placement exemption set forth in Section 4(2) of the
Securities Act of 1933. The Corporation has filed a registration statement on
Form S-3 under the Securities Act of 1933 relating to certain of the shares
issued on conversion of the debenture in connection with a demand registration
right exercised by GSC Partners.

CANADA. DIFFERENCES FROM GAAP IN THE UNITED STATES ARE DISCLOSED IN NOTE 24.
WHERE APPROPRIATE, COMPARATIVE FIGURES HAVE BEEN RECLASSIFIED TO CONFORM TO THE
CURRENT PRESENTATION IN THE CORPORATION'S CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

     The Corporation operates in the printing industry with three distinct
business segments based on the way management assesses information on a
regular basis for decision-making purposes. The three

                                       14
<PAGE>

segments are Forms and Labels, Outsourcing and Commercial. These segments
market print and print related products and services to a geographically
diverse customer base.

     The following discussion includes the results of operations on a
consolidated and operating segment basis. The financial statements are
presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in
Canada. The following discussion is also supplemented by a discussion of
operating income of each of the business segments before deductions for
restructuring and other non-recurring charges, including the impairment of
long-lived assets and pension settlement. This supplemental discussion of
operating results before these charges should be read in conjunction with the
Corporation's audited consolidated financial statements included herein.

CONSOLIDATED

2001 COMPARED TO 2000

     Net sales decreased by $103.8 million, a decrease of 4.6%, primarily
resulting from the divestitures of the Colleagues (the Corporation's European
advertising agency) and Phoenix business units, the decision to exit certain
unprofitable accounts, the devaluation of certain foreign currencies and weak
demand in non-core businesses due to the challenging economic environment.

     Cost of goods sold increased as a percent of sales for 2001 to 72.1%
versus 70.8% in 2000. The increase is primarily attributable to competitive
pricing pressures, $6.6 million of non-cash write-offs of obsolete inventory
related to abandoned product lines and a $61.2 million cost of sales charge
related to the partial settlement of the U.S. pension plan associated with
plant production employees.

     Selling, general and administrative costs as a percent of sales for 2001
were 26.7% versus 25.6% in 2000. Several one-time items have significantly
affected this category, primarily charges related to the partial settlement of
the U.S. pension plan related to non-plant production employees of $35.4
million, accounts receivable write-offs of $4.6 million and professional fees
associated with the partial redemption of the senior guaranteed notes of $1.0
million. The Corporation anticipates improvement in these costs as each segment
continues to address cost structure and improve business processes.

     Depreciation and amortization increased by $87.6 million, or 57.8%, due to
the write-down of goodwill of non-core businesses of $76.8 million, as well as
impairment of certain assets no longer in use.

     Loss from operations increased $296.1 million to a loss of $342.3 million
as a result of the $391.2 million in restructuring and other non-recurring
charges. The Corporation projects a pre-tax savings from these restructuring
actions to be approximately $100 million annually. These charges were partially
offset by improved operating results in the Forms and Labels and Outsourcing
businesses, of $71.2 million.

     Interest expense for the year ended December 31, 2001, increased $1.1
million or 4.3% over the same prior year period, primarily due to an increase
in debt resulting from the issuance of $70.5 million subordinated convertible
debentures in December 2000, partially offset by lower borrowings under the
Corporation's bank credit facility.

     Included in the loss before taxes and minority interest, is a non-cash
charge of $10.4 million, which represents accelerated amortization of the
deferred issuance costs on the $70.5 million subordinated convertible
debentures which were converted during the fourth quarter of 2001.

     The decrease in the 2001 effective tax recovery rate from 2000 was
primarily attributable to the inability to currently recognize future income
tax benefits on certain current operating losses and the write-down of goodwill
relating to non-core businesses.

     Net loss available to common shareholders for the year ended December 31,
2001, increased by $306.9 million to $373.3 million or $(4.21) per diluted
share, primarily due to the Corporation's restructuring actions. Included in
the loss available to common shareholders was approximately $15.5 million,
which primarily represents the fair value at December 28, 2001 of the 1,650,000
shares given to the Class A limited partners of the partnership that owned the
$70.5 million subordinated convertible debentures as inducement for early
conversion.


                                       15
<PAGE>

2000 COMPARED TO 1999

     Net sales in 2000 of $2,258.4 million decreased by $166.7 million, or 6.9%
compared to 1999 net sales of $2,425.1 million. The sales decline was primarily
due to divestitures, net volume decreases, and the impact of currency
devaluation partly offset by the full consolidation of the operations of
Quality Color Press. The volume decrease was the result of an increasingly
competitive, technologically evolving environment, in a flat market.

     Cost of sales was 70.8% of consolidated net sales in 2000 compared to
68.7% in 1999. Included in cost of sales was $21.2 million and $23.2 million of
research and development costs for 2000 and 1999, respectively.

     Selling, general and administrative costs in 2000 decreased to $578.6
million from $585.3 million in 1999. The ratio of selling, general and
administrative costs to sales in 2000 increased to 25.6% compared to 24.1% in
1999.

     A net restructuring reversal of $24.0 million was recorded in 2000
compared to a reversal of $68.4 million in 1999, due to provisions no longer
required.

     Depreciation and amortization of $151.5 million in 2000 increased by $50.2
million versus 1999. This increase was primarily due to the partial write-down
of $20.9 million of goodwill relating to a European subsidiary, the
commencement in 2000 of amortization of the ERP asset amounting to $26.8
million, and the write-off of a component of the ERP asset of $13.8 million.

     Loss from operations in 2000 was $46.2 million compared to operating
income in 1999 of $141.7 million. The decline was primarily attributed to Forms
and Labels operating income in 2000 of $71.9 million compared to operating
income in 1999 of $195.7 million.

     The 2000 effective tax rate of 21.3% represents a recovery of income taxes
compared to the 1999 provision for income taxes of 27.4%.

     The net loss for 2000 was $66.4 million, a loss per share of $0.75
compared with 1999 net income of $92.6 million and $1.05 earnings per share for
the reasons discussed above.

RESTRUCTURING AND OTHER NON-RECURRING CHARGES

     The following table summarizes restructuring and other non-recurring
charges recorded by the Corporation for the year ended December 31, 2001.

</TABLE>

     For the year ended December 31, 2001, the Corporation recorded pre-tax
restructuring and other non-recurring charges of $391.2 million (see Note 16 to
Consolidated Financial Statements). These charges include a net restructuring
provision of $129.7 million primarily related to workforce reductions and lease
terminations; non-cash charges of $131.4 million that are included in
depreciation and amortization related to the write-down of goodwill of non-core
businesses and asset impairments; non-cash charges for inventory and accounts
receivable, relating to exiting certain non-core businesses, of


                                       16
<PAGE>

$11.2 million included in cost of sales and selling, general and administrative
costs; loss on disposal of non-core assets that were included in investment and
other income of $4.9 million; other non-recurring charges of $12.6 million
related to the early redemption of $100 million of private placement notes and
the conversion of the $70.5 million subordinated convertible debentures; and
other non-recurring cash charges of $4.8 million, included in selling, general
and administrative costs; partially offset by a $12.8 million reversal of
restructuring reserves related to the 1998 restructuring program that are no
longer required due to favorable settlements.

     The Corporation also recorded a net charge of $96.6 million in 2001
associated with the partial settlement of the U.S. pension plan, which was
curtailed as of December 31, 2000. In March 2001, the Corporation purchased
approximately $600 million of annuity contracts settling approximately 70% of
the outstanding obligation. The balances of the annuity contracts are expected
to be purchased during the first six months of 2002, resulting in an
anticipated pre-tax loss of approximately $15 million.

     Also, included in the 2001 restructuring charge is $48.0 million related
to lease termination costs associated with the Corporation's obligation for its
office facility in Bannockburn, Illinois. This charge is based upon
management's estimates and assumptions at the time the charge was recorded.
Actual results could vary based upon market conditions and the Corporation's
ability to sublease the aforementioned property. Any potential recovery or
additional charge may affect amounts reported in the consolidated financial
statements of future periods.

     For the year ended December 31, 2000, the Corporation recorded a pre-tax
non-recurring charge of $20.9 million related to the reversal of restructuring
and other provisions no longer needed of $31.0 million, a gain on the
curtailment of its U.S. pension plan of $6.6 million, and other non-recurring
costs of $11.8 million. These benefits were partially offset by non-cash
charges of $34.7 million that are included in depreciation and amortization
related to the write-down of a non-core asset held for disposal, the impairment
of a component of the Enterprise Resource Planning Software System ("ERP") and
a loss on disposal of the investment in JetForm Corporation of $8.5 million and
the write-down of a permanently impaired investment of $3.5 million.

     The following table and management discussion summarizes the operating
results of the Corporation's business segments and corporate overhead expenses
excluding the impact of restructuring and other non-recurring charges
previously discussed.

</TABLE>

FORMS AND LABELS

2001 COMPARED TO 2000

     Net sales decreased $60.4 million, or 4.9%, due to foreign currency
devaluation of $28.5 million and lower volumes at the Canadian Forms and Labels
business as a result of the Corporation's decision to exit certain unprofitable
customer accounts.

     Net sales declined in North America by $37.6 million, or 3.6%, due to the
decision to exit certain unprofitable accounts and lower volumes. In Latin
America, sales declined by $22.8 million, or 12.6%, primarily due to the
devaluation of the Brazilian real.

     Operating income increased $59.3 million, or 118.1%, primarily due to the
Corporation's decision to streamline its Forms and Labels operations including
the elimination of non-customer critical positions in support of the goal to
significantly reduce costs. Cost of goods sold as a percent of sales improved
during


                                       17
<PAGE>

2001 to 67.3% from 69.2% in 2000, due to waste reduction programs, reduced
headcount, the initial impact of purchasing synergies and exiting of certain
lower margin customer contracts. Selling, general and administrative expenses
decreased $40.0 million or 14.9%, also as an immediate result of the cost
containment efforts initiated during 2001.

2000 COMPARED TO 1999

     Net sales decreased $179.0 million, or 12.7%, due to the decision to exit
low margin customer accounts, and the drop in volume from financial sector
customers, as well as the impact of increased Year 2000 purchases by customers
in 1999. In 2000, net sales for Latin America increased by $20.3 million, or
12.6%. The increase in net sales was derived primarily from higher volumes in
Brazil.

     Operating income decreased by $95.1 million, or 65.5%, compared to 1999.
The fixed cost element of the businesses in the United States remained
relatively consistent despite significantly reduced volumes. In Canada, a shift
in product mix to outsourced product contributed to lower margins. Earnings
were also affected by the investments required to launch various digital and
Internet strategies for the forms business, and the continued incremental costs
related to maintaining redundant computer systems as the Corporation
implemented an ERP system. Latin America contributed about $9.5 million to
operating income in 2000, a $6.4 million or 209% increase from 1999. The
increase is the result of higher sales volume and cost containment on selling,
general and administrative expenses.

OUTSOURCING

2001 COMPARED TO 2000

     Net sales increased $42.7 million, or 14.4%, due to strong volume growth
of 11.3% resulting from increased service offerings and the benefits achieved
from a sharper focus on leveraging core capabilities with existing customers.

     Operating income increased by $14.3 million, or 35.8%, due to increased
revenues, improved gross margins and cost savings achieved through workforce
reductions. Selling, general and administrative costs remained almost flat
despite incremental costs associated with increased sales volume due to cost
reduction initiatives implemented throughout the year.

2000 COMPARED TO 1999

     Net sales increased by $16.4 million, or 5.8%, compared to 1999, primarily
due to new product and service offerings. Despite the revenue increase in 2000,
operating income was slightly affected by the investments required to create
new product line ventures and to reposition existing product and service
offerings. During 2000, operating income decreased by $1.6 million or 3.8%, to
$40.0 million.

COMMERCIAL

2001 COMPARED TO 2000

     Net sales declined by $86.1 million, or 11.7%, primarily due to a $55.6
million decline in revenues as a result of the divestiture of Colleagues, a
$21.7 million revenue decline in non-core businesses and $8.8 million decline
in revenues related to the disposition of Phoenix.

     Commercial contributed $31.4 million to consolidated operating income in
2001, a 375.8% increase due to aggressive cost containment, which included a
$33.4 million or 20.6% decrease in selling, general and administrative
expenses.

2000 COMPARED TO 1999

     Net sales decreased by $4.1 million, due to the loss of sweepstakes
mailing volumes in Response Marketing Services ("RMS") following the enactment
of the Deceptive Mail Prevention and Enforcement Act in effect since April
2000. The RMS unit was able to obtain other monthly mail programs, which


                                       18
<PAGE>

partially offset the loss of the sweepstakes business. The Phoenix group
achieved volume growth by obtaining new customer business and expanding
services and solutions to existing customer base. Also, during 2000, the
operating results of Quality Color Press were fully consolidated, adding $20.5
million of net sales. These increases were offset by a $41.1 million decrease
in European subsidiaries due to the loss of some major accounts.

     Operating income decreased $41.7 million, or 86.3%, to $6.6 million in
2000. This is due to incremental costs associated with maintaining redundant
information systems, pricing pressures in the RMS business and in Europe, and
severance and termination costs incurred to downsize the infrastructure.

CORPORATE

2001 COMPARED TO 2000

     The increase in corporate expense is primarily due to the reduction of
pension income resulting from the pension settlement and additional retirement
savings plan contributions, offset by a reduction in corporate overhead.

2000 COMPARED TO 1999

     The decrease in corporate expense is due to reversal of provisions for
incentive plans that were no longer needed and reduction of overhead.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

In addition to its cash generated from operations, the Corporation has a $168
million committed revolving term facility that matures on August 5, 2002 and is
subject to a number of financial covenants that are calculated on a quarterly
basis including, but not limited to, tests of net worth, leverage and interest
coverage. At December 31, 2001, $15 million was drawn down under the facility
versus nil at December 31, 2000. The Corporation is currently negotiating a new
credit facility, and expects to enter into a new facility by the end of the
second quarter of 2002; however, the Corporation cannot give any assurance that
it will be able to obtain a new credit facility. The Corporation also maintains
uncommitted bank operating lines in the majority of the domestic markets in
which it operates. These lines of credit are maintained to cover temporary cash
shortfalls. These uncommitted facilities amount to available credit of $43.2
million at December 31, 2001, which may be terminated at any time at the
Corporation's option. The Corporation has $17.3 million in outstanding letters
of credit at December 31, 2001. Total availability at December 31, 2001 was
approximately $196 million. In addition, the Corporation expects to receive
within the next six to twelve months approximately $150 million before taxes,
fees and transfers to other employee benefit plans from the termination of the
U.S. pension plan.


     An additional source of liquidity at December 31, 2001 was the
Corporation's short-term investments in the amount of $64 million, which
primarily consist of certificate and term deposits, treasury bills and bank
notes. These investments are with financial institutions of sound credit rating
and are highly liquid as the majority mature within one to seven days and are
classified as "Cash and cash equivalents".

===================================================================================================================
</TABLE>

     The senior guaranteed notes and revolving term credit facility agreements
include certain debt covenants calculated on a quarterly basis including, but
not limited to, tests of net worth, leverage and interest coverage. For the
years ended December 31, 2001 and 2000, the Corporation was in compliance with
all debt covenants. The Corporation believes it has sufficient liquidity to
complete the planned restructuring activities and effectively manage the
financial needs of its businesses into the foreseeable future.

     Net cash resources (cash and short-term securities less bank indebtedness)
of $28.7 million at December 31, 2001 represents a $21.6 million increase, or
303.3%, as compared to $7.1 million at December 31, 2000.

     Net cash provided from operating activities was $136.3 million for 2001
compared to $34.7 million in 2000. The change was primarily due to significant
improvements in working capital resulting from improved cash collections,
overall inventory and accounts payable management and better operating results
in the Corporation's core businesses.

     Net cash usage by investing activities for 2001 was $21.1 million, a
decline of $35.1 million, primarily due to proceeds from the sale of
investments and other assets, the reduction of capital spending, partially
offset by the acquisition of a business in the Outsourcing segment of $14.6
million.

     Net cash used in financing activities was $93.1 million, an increase of
$95.2 million, primarily due to the $100 million redemption of the
Corporation's senior guaranteed notes in December of 2001. Dividends paid
decreased by $8.8 million as the Board of Directors approved the suspension of
future dividends on its outstanding common shares during the second quarter of
2001.

     The Corporation recorded non-cash transactions associated with the
conversion of its $70.5 million subordinated convertible debentures held by
Chancery Lane/GSC Investors, L.P., and the related inducement. See Note 23 of
the accompanying notes to the consolidated financial statements. Certain
officers of the Corporation and members of the Board of Directors were
investors in Chancery Lane/GSC Investors, L.P.

COST INITIATIVE

     The Corporation continuously evaluates ways to reduce its cost structure,
and improve the productivity of its operations. Future cost reduction
initiatives may include the reorganization of operations or the consolidation of
manufacturing facilities. Implementing such initiatives may result in future
charges, which may be substantial.

CONVERSION TO THE EUROPEAN MONETARY UNION ("EURO")

     Certain of the Corporation's subsidiaries conduct business in some of the
countries that have adopted the Euro as their currency. The conversion to the
Euro is not expected to have a material effect on the Corporation's results of
operations, cash flows or financial condition.

YEAR 2000

     The Corporation established a plan to address the impact of Year 2000 on
its information technology systems and processes, including those involved in
providing services to its customers, and treated the Year 2000 issue as a
business priority. The cost for the entire Year 2000 program was forecasted at
$42 million, which was funded through normal operations. Expenditures totaled
$42.7 million with $17.4 million charged to 1999 earnings and $25.3 million
charged to 1998 earnings.

RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS NOT YET IMPLEMENTED

     Management's discussion and analysis of the impact of Canadian and United
States accounting standards issued, but not yet implemented, is contained in
Note 25 to the consolidated financial statements.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

     The Corporation's significant accounting policies are more fully described
in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements. Certain accounting policies
require the application of significant judgment by management in selecting the
appropriate assumptions for calculating financial estimates. By their nature,
these judgments are subject to an inherent degree of uncertainty. These
judgements are based on historical experience, terms of existing contracts,
observance of trends in the industry, information provided by customers and
information available from other outside sources, as appropriate. The
Corporation's significant accounting policies include:

REVENUE RECOGNITION

     The Corporation typically recognizes revenue for the majority of its
products upon shipment to the customer and the transfer of title. Services
revenue is recognized as the services are provided. Under contracts with certain
customers, custom forms may be stored by the Corporation for future delivery. In
these situations, the Corporation receives a logistics and warehouse management
fee for the services it provides. In these cases, delivery and billing
schedules are outlined in the contracts and product revenue is recognized when
manufacturing is complete, title transfers to the customer, the order is
invoiced and there is reasonable assurance as to collectability. Since the
majority of products are customized, product returns are not significant;
however, the Corporation accrues for the estimated amount of customer credits at
the time of sale.

ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE

     The Corporation maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts, which is
reviewed at least quarterly for estimated losses resulting from the inability
of its customers to make required payments for its product and services.
Additional allowances may be necessary in the future if the ability of its
customers to pay deteriorates.

PENSION

     Pension assets and liabilities are determined on an actuarial basis and
are affected by the estimated market value of plan assets; estimates of the
expected return on plan assets and discount rates. Actual changes in the fair
market value of plan assets and differences between the actual return on plan
assets and the expected return on plan assets will affect the amount of pension
expense ultimately recognized. Postretirement benefits other than pension
liability are also determined on an actuarial basis and are affected by
assumptions including the discount rate and expected trends in health care
costs. Changes in the discount rate and differences between actual and expected
health care cost will affect the recorded amount of postretirement benefits
expense.

TAXES

     The Corporation has recorded a valuation allowance to reduce its deferred
tax assets based on an evaluation of the amount of deferred tax assets that
management believes are more likely than not to be


                                       21
<PAGE>

ultimately realized in the foreseeable future. An adjustment to income could be
required in the future if the Corporation determines it would be able to realize
additional deferred tax assets in excess of the net recorded amount or it would
not be able to realize all or part of its net deferred tax assets.

ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

MARKET RISK DISCLOSURE

     The risks inherent in the Corporation's market risk sensitive instruments
and positions is summarized as: the potential loss arising from adverse changes
in interest rates, credit worthiness, foreign currency exchange rates and
certain commodity prices.

INTEREST RATES

     The Corporation is exposed to interest rate risk arising from fluctuations
in interest rates on its borrowings under its credit facilities. This exposure
at year-end was nominal, as floating rate debt was less than 15% of total debt
outstanding. The Corporation is also exposed to price risk in respect of its
fixed rate debt instruments. See Note 9 of the accompanying notes to the
consolidated financial statements.

CREDIT RISK

     The Corporation is exposed to credit risk on accounts receivable balances.
This risk is limited due to the Corporation's large, diverse customer base,
dispersed over various geographic regions and industrial sectors. The
Corporation maintains provisions for potential credit losses, and any such
losses to date have been within the Corporation's expectations.

FOREIGN CURRENCY

     The Corporation is exposed to the impact of foreign currency fluctuations
in certain countries in which it operates. The exposure to foreign currency
movements is limited because the operating revenues and expenses of its various
subsidiaries and business units are substantially in the local currency of the
country in which they operate. To the extent revenues and expenses are not in
the local currency of the operating unit, the Corporation enters into foreign
currency forward contracts to hedge the currency risk. As of December 31, 2001,
the aggregate amount of outstanding forward contracts was $13.7 million.
Notional gains and losses from these foreign currency contracts were not
significant at December 31, 2001. The Corporation does not use derivative
financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes.

     The Corporation assessed market risk based on changes in interest rates
and foreign currency rates utilizing a sensitivity analysis that measures the
potential loss in earnings, fair values and cash flows based on a 10%
hypothetical change in prevailing interest and foreign currency rates. Using
this sensitivity analysis, the Corporation is determined such changes would not
have a material effect on earnings, fair values and cash flows.

COMMODITIES

     The primary raw materials used by the Corporation are paper and ink. The
cost of paper and ink represents a significant portion of costs of sales.
Increases in price or a lack of availability of supply of these raw materials
could have a material adverse effect on the financial condition and results of
operations. The Corporation uses its significant purchasing volume to negotiate
long-term supply contracts that give favorable prices, terms, quality and
service. While the Corporation believes that these long-term contracts will
enable the Corporation to receive adequate supplies of paper in the event of a
tight paper supply, there can be no assurance in this regard.

     To reduce price risk caused by market fluctuations, the Corporation has
incorporated price adjustment clauses in certain sales contracts. The
Corporation does not think it is practicable to measure the impact of a
hypothetical 10% change in the price of paper and other raw materials on its
earnings and cash flows. Such a change would not have a significant effect on
the Corporation since these costs are generally passed through to its
customers.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

December 31,
In thousands of U.S. dollars, except share and per share data

1. SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES

PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION

     Moore Corporation Limited is incorporated under the laws of the Province
of Ontario. The consolidated financial statements, which are prepared in
accordance with Canadian generally accepted accounting principles, include the
accounts of Moore Corporation Limited and its subsidiaries. Entities that are
not controlled and which the Corporation has significant influence over are
accounted for under the equity method. All other investments are accounted for
on the cost basis. All intercompany transactions have been eliminated.
Comparative figures have been reclassified where appropriate to conform to the
current presentation. Significant differences between United States and
Canadian GAAP are discussed in Note 24.

REVENUE RECOGNITION

     The Corporation typically recognizes revenue for the majority of its
products upon shipment to the customer and the transfer of title. Services
revenue is recognized as the services are provided. Under contracts with
certain customers, custom forms may be stored by the Corporation for future
delivery. In these situations, the Corporation receives a logistics and
warehouse management fee for the services they provide. In these cases,
delivery and billing schedules are outlined in the contracts and product
revenue is recognized when manufacturing is complete, title transfers to the
customer, the order is invoiced and there is reasonable assurance as to
collectability. Since the majority of products are customized, product returns
are not significant; however, the Corporation accrues for the estimated amount
of customer credits at the time of sale.

TRANSLATION OF FOREIGN CURRENCIES

     The consolidated financial statements are expressed in United States
dollars because a significant part of the net assets and earnings are located
or originate in the United States. Except for the foreign currency financial
statements of subsidiaries in countries with highly inflationary economies,
Canadian and other foreign currency financial statements have been translated
into United States dollars on the following bases: all assets and liabilities
at the year-end exchange rates; income and expenses at average exchange rates
during the year.

     Net unrealized exchange adjustments arising on translation of foreign
currency financial statements are charged or credited directly to shareholders'
equity and shown as cumulative translation adjustments. Realized exchange
losses or gains are included in earnings. In 2001 a loss of $2,936 is included
in investment and other income. Amounts included in investment and other income
for 2000 and 1999 were not material.

     The foreign currency financial statements of subsidiaries in countries
with highly inflationary economies are translated into United States dollars
using the temporal method whereby monetary items are translated at current
rates of exchange, and non-monetary items are translated at historical rates of
exchange. The only highly inflationary economy in which the Corporation
operates is Venezuela.

FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

     The Corporation enters into forward exchange contracts to manage exposures
resulting from foreign exchange fluctuations in the ordinary course of
business. The contracts are normally for terms of less than one year and are
used as hedges of foreign denominated revenue streams, costs and loans. The
unrealized gains and losses on outstanding contracts are offset against the
gains and losses of the hedged item.


                                       26
<PAGE>

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

     Short-term securities consist of investment grade, highly liquid
instruments of highly rated governments, financial institutions and
corporations.

     Unless disclosed otherwise in the notes to the consolidated financial
statements, the estimated fair value of financial assets and liabilities
approximates carrying value.

CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS

     Cash and cash equivalents consist of highly liquid investments with a
purchased maturity of three months or less.

INVENTORIES

     Inventories of raw materials and work-in-process are valued at the lower
of cost and replacement cost and inventories of finished goods at the lower of
cost and net realizable value. In the United States, the cost of the principal
raw material inventories and the raw material content of work-in-process and
finished goods inventories is determined on the last-in, first-out basis. The
cost of all other inventories is determined on the first-in, first-out basis.

PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT AND DEPRECIATION

     Property, plant and equipment are stated at historical cost. Depreciation
is provided on a basis that will amortize the cost of depreciable assets over
their estimated useful lives using the straight-line method. All costs for
repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred.

     The estimated useful lives of buildings range from 20 to 50 years and of
machinery and equipment from 3 to 17 years.

     Gains or losses on the disposal of property, plant and equipment are
included in investment and other income, and the cost and accumulated
depreciation related to these assets are removed from the accounts.

GOODWILL AND LONG-LIVED ASSETS

     The estimated useful life of goodwill arising from acquisitions is
determined based on the particular circumstances of each investment. Goodwill,
existing prior to July 1, 2001, is amortized on a straight-line basis over its
estimated useful life, not to exceed 40 years. On a regular basis, the
Corporation reviews the valuation and amortization of goodwill and long-lived
assets. Whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value
of goodwill and long-lived assets may not be recoverable, the Corporation
compares expected future undiscounted cash flows to be generated by the asset or
related business to the carrying value. If the carrying value exceeds the sum of
the future undiscounted cash flows, the asset would be adjusted to its net
recoverable amount and an impairment loss would be charged to operations in the
period identified. (See Note 25 "Pending Accounting Standards.")

AMORTIZATION OF DEFERRED CHARGES

     Deferred charges include certain costs to acquire and develop internal-use
computer software, which is amortized over its estimated useful life using the
straight-line method, up to a maximum of seven years.

     Deferred debt issue costs are amortized over the term of the related debt
using the effective interest rate method.

INCOME TAXES

     The Corporation applies the liability method of tax allocation for
accounting for income taxes. Under the liability method, deferred tax assets
and liabilities are determined based on differences between the financial
reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities and are measured using the
substantively enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the
differences are expected to reverse. The effect of a change in income tax rates
on deferred income tax liabilities and assets is recognized in income in the
period that the change occurs.


                                       27
<PAGE>

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

     No provision has been made for taxes on undistributed earnings of
subsidiaries not currently available for paying dividends as such earnings have
been reinvested in the business.

STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

     The Corporation has stock-based compensation plans as described in Note
11. The Corporation accounts for stock options using the intrinsic value
method. No compensation expense in 2001 or 2000 is recognized as the options
have an exercise price equal to the fair market value at dates of grant.

USE OF ESTIMATES

     The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with
Canadian generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported assets and liabilities and
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the
reporting periods. Actual results could differ from these estimates. Estimates
are used when accounting for items and matters including but not limited to
allowance for uncollectible accounts receivable, inventory obsolescence,
amortization, asset valuations, employee benefits, taxes, restructuring and
other provisions and contingencies.

2. CHANGES IN ACCOUNTING POLICIES

CICA SECTION 3500 EARNINGS PER SHARE

     Effective January 1, 2001, the Corporation adopted the recommendations of
the Canadian Institute of Chartered Accountants' (CICA) Handbook Section 3500,
Earnings Per Share. The standard requires the disclosure of the calculation of
basic and diluted earnings per share and the use of the treasury stock method
for calculating the dilutive impact of stock options. The impact on prior
reported amounts was not material.

CICA SECTION 3461 EMPLOYEE FUTURE BENEFITS

     Effective January 1, 2000, the Corporation adopted the recommendations of
the Canadian Institute of Chartered Accountants' (CICA) Handbook Section 3461,
Employee Future Benefits. Under past Canadian standards, the Corporation
recognized the cost of postretirement benefits other than pensions as an
expense when paid. The new standard requires that the expected costs of the
employees' postretirement benefits be expensed during the years that the
employees render services to the Corporation. In addition, the new standard
changes the accounting for recognition of involuntary termination benefits. For
accrual purposes, the new standard requires that benefit arrangements be
communicated to employees in sufficient detail to enable them to determine the
type and the amount of benefits they will receive when their employment is
terminated.

     The new standard was applied retroactively without restatement of prior
year financial statements. Opening retained earnings at January 1, 2000 has
been increased by $64,000 for the portion of this new standard that relates to
the recognition of involuntary termination benefits. The cumulative effect of
this change, as of January 1, 2000, resulted in the following increases:


------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Assets                                                                $231,946
Liabilities                                                            198,651

Opening retained earnings                                             $ 33,295
==============================================================================

CICA SECTION 3465 ACCOUNTING FOR INCOME TAXES

     Effective January 1, 2000, the Corporation adopted the new recommendations
of the CICA with respect to accounting for income taxes. This represented a
change from the deferral method of tax allocation to the liability method of
tax allocation.

=============================================================================================
</TABLE>

     On December 27, 2001, the Corporation redeemed $100,000 of the senior
guaranteed notes. The remaining senior notes bear interest payable
semi-annually, and have an estimated fair value of $87,600.

     On August 5, 1999, the Corporation entered into a $168,000 committed
revolving term facility with a group of nine banks. The facility matures on
August 5, 2002 and bears interest at a variable rate based on the utilization
and the leverage ratio of the Corporation. The weighted average interest rate
during 2001 was 6.7% (2000 -- 7.9%). The Corporation is negotiating to replace
this credit facility and believes it has the ability to successfully
renegotiate a credit facility by the end of the second quarter of 2002. The
Corporation believes that it has the necessary liquidity available to fund all
of the Corporation's current financial operations.

     On December 28, 2001, the $70.5 million subordinated convertible debentures
held by Chancery Lane/GSC Investors L.P. (the "Partnership") were converted into
21,692,311 common shares. The Corporation issued 1,650,000 additional common
shares ("additional shares") as an inducement to the Partnership's Class A
limited partners to convert prior to December 22, 2005, the date the Corporation
could have redeemed the debentures. The right to receive the additional shares
was assigned by the Partnership to its Class A limited partners. Under the terms
of the partnership agreement, the Class A limited partners were entitled to all
the interest paid on the subordinated convertible debentures. As part of the
inducement agreement, the Corporation has also agreed to make a payment in cash
if the 20 day weighted average trading price of the common shares on the New
York Stock Exchange ("NYSE") at December 31, 2002 is less than $8.00. The amount
payable, if any, would be the difference between $14,000 and the market value at
December 31, 2002 of the additional shares issued, provided the maximum amount
payable by the Corporation shall not exceed the value of 3,000,000 of its common
shares at such date. In addition, if at December 31, 2003 the 20 day weighted
average trading price of the common shares on the NYSE is less than $10.83, the
Corporation must make a payment equal to the lesser of $9,000 and the value of
6,000,000 of its common shares at such date. The $9,000 payment may be reduced
under certain circumstances. At the option of the Corporation, these payments
may be made in common shares, subject to regulatory approval. To the extent that
stock or cash is paid, it will be recorded as a charge to retained earnings.
Certain officers of the Corporation, including the President and Chief Executive
Officer and members of the Board of Directors were investors in the Partnership.

     For financial reporting purposes, the subordinated convertible debentures
had a liability component and an equity component. The liability component was
classified as long-term debt, representing the present value of interest and
principal payments discounted at a rate of interest applicable to a debt only
instrument of comparable term and risk. The equity component at December 28,
2001 was $8,343 representing the value of the conversion option, calculated as
the difference between the proceeds and liability component.

     Upon conversion, the Corporation allocated the consideration given to
extinguish the subordinated convertible debentures to the liability and equity
components based on fair values on the date of conversion, which approximated


                                       31

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

their carrying value. As such, no gain or loss was recorded. The inducement
payment of the additional shares issued was allocated to the equity component
and, accordingly, charged to retained earnings. Professional fees of $1,600
incurred for the conversion were also charged to retained earnings.

     Deferred issue costs of $10,396 (previously included in other assets)
relating to the subordinated convertible debentures were charged to earnings
upon extinguishment.

     Other long-term debt, including capital leases of $12,789 (2000 --
$2,549), bears interest at rates ranging from 3.1% to 14.2% and matures on
various dates through 2011. The weighted average interest rate on other
long-term debt is 9.5% (2000 -- 7.0%). Loans to subsidiaries amounting to
$4,000 (2000 -- $8,580), are payable in currencies other than United States
dollars.

     The senior guaranteed notes and revolving term credit facility agreements
include certain debt covenants calculated on a quarterly basis including, but
not limited to, tests of net worth, leverage and interest coverage. For the
years ended December 31, 2001 and 2000, the Corporation was in compliance with
all debt covenants. The Corporation had $17,300 in outstanding letters of
credit at December 31, 2001.

     The net book value of assets subject to liens approximates $27,485 (2000
-- $23,200). The liens are primarily mortgages against property, plant and
equipment and other current assets.

     Payments required on long-term debt (excluding capital lease obligations)
are as follows: 2002 -- $1,325; 2003 -- $850; 2004 -- $146; 2005 -- $373, and
2006 -- $42,750, and thereafter -- $57,250.

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

     During 2000, the Corporation entered into a long-term supply agreement
with a vendor for the purchase of certain materials. Proceeds received on the
agreement have been deferred and are being amortized over a period of five
years (the term of the agreement). Included in accounts payable and accrued
liabilities at December 31, 2001 is $6,918 (2000 --  $7,200) representing the
current portion of the supply agreement.

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

     The Corporation has a long-term incentive program under which stock
options and restricted stock awards may be granted to certain key employees. At
December 31, 2001, there were 877,500 common shares available for grants (2000
-- 171,700; 1999 -- 880,400). Stock options have an exercise price equal to


                                       32
<PAGE>

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

the fair market value at dates of grant. Options granted generally vest at 20%
or 25% per year from the date of grant. Upon retirement, all options become
vested. Options granted prior to 1999 are eligible for exercise for five years
after the date of retirement. Options granted after 1998 are eligible for
exercise for one year after the date of retirement. The options expire not more
than 10 years from the date granted. There are no restricted stock awards
outstanding.

     In 1999 the Corporation incurred a charge of $3,056 related to certain
senior executive long-term incentive plans. For 2001 and 2000, no expense was
required under these plans. In 1999, the Corporation also recorded a charge of
$3,095 related to certain stock based compensation awards. For 2001 and 2000,
no expense was required under these plans.

     On December 11, 2000, the Board of Directors approved the creation of
Series 1 Preference Shares. Each Series 1 Preference Share will be non-voting
and will entitle the holder to a non-cumulative preferential annual dividend of
CDN $0.001 and to receive any dividend paid on a common share. In the event of
liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Corporation, a holder of a Series
1 Preference Share will be entitled to receive a preferential amount of CDN
$0.001, together with all dividends declared and unpaid thereon. Thereafter,
the Series 1 Preference Shares and common shares rank equally with each other
on a share-for-share basis. Stock options to acquire 1,580,000 Series 1
Preference Shares were issued on December 11, 2000 and vest at 25% per annum.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

     During 2000, the Corporation amended the United States pension plan to
cease all benefit accruals effective December 31, 2000 and announced the
Corporation's intention to terminate and wind-up the plan in 2001. The 2000 net
pension expense includes a curtailment gain of $6,630 for this amendment. In
March 2001, the Corporation partially settled this plan by purchasing
approximately $600 million in annuities. This settlement reduced the projected
benefit obligation and fair value of plan assets by $608,323 and $611,057,
respectively, and resulted in a settlement loss of $109,115. In June 2001, this
plan was terminated. Prior to the settlement, pension expense was based upon
assumptions established as of January 1, 2001. Pension expense for the
remainder of the year on the unsettled portion of the plan was calculated using
a discount rate and rate of return on plan assets of approximately 6.25%, which
were based upon estimated market rates to settle the remaining portion of the
plan. The Corporation anticipates settling the remainder of the plan during
2002 and expects to incur an additional settlement loss. Additionally, the
Corporation expects to receive approximately $150,000 before taxes, fees and
transfers to other employee benefit plans resulting from the termination of
this plan.

     During 2001, the Corporation purchased annuities to settle substantially
all of the obligation under the United Kingdom plan. This settlement reduced
the projected benefit obligation and fair value of plan assets by $99,144.

     In some subsidiaries, where either state or funded retirement plans exist,
there are certain small supplementary unfunded plans. Pensionable service prior
to establishing funded contributory retirement plans in other subsidiaries,
covered by former discretionary non-contributory retirement plans, was assumed
as a prior service obligation. In addition, the Corporation has supplemental
retirement programs for certain senior executives. These unfunded pension
obligations are included in other liabilities and include the unfunded portion
of this prior service obligation and the supplementary unfunded plans.

     All of the retirement plans are non-contributory. Retirement benefits are
generally based on years of service and employees' compensation during the last
years of employment. At December 31, 2001, none of the United States or
International plans' assets and about 62% of the Canadian plan's assets were
held in equity securities with the remaining portion of the asset being mainly
fixed income securities.

DEFINED CONTRIBUTION SAVINGS PLANS

     Savings plans are maintained in Canada, the United States and the United
Kingdom. Only the savings plan in the United Kingdom requires Corporation
contributions for all employees who are eligible to participate in the
retirement plans. These annual contributions consist of a retirement savings
benefit contribution ranging from 1% to 3% of each year's compensation
depending upon age. For all savings plans, if an employee contribution is made,
a portion of such contribution may be eligible for a contribution match by the
Corporation. For 2001, the defined contribution savings plan expenses were
$6,913 (2000 -- $4,667; 1999 -- $4,868).

</TABLE>

     In the fourth quarter of 2001, the Corporation reversed $12,856 of the
provision relating to the 1998 restructuring program. This is due to proceeds
received from the final disposal of various properties, and the favorable
settlement of liabilities for obligations and future payments related to the
disposition of the European forms business. Approximately $27,000 of the
restructuring balance at December 31, 2001 relates to the 1998 restructuring
program. Pursuant to the 1998 restructuring program, a charge for severance and
other termination benefits included 4,318 employees. Approximately 200 and nil
employees were remaining at December 31, 1999 and 2000, respectively.

     For the years ended December 31, 2000 and 1999, the Corporation recorded
net reversals of restructuring reserves no longer required of $24,033 and
$68,410, respectively. These amounts relate to differences between management's
estimate at the time the original charge was recorded and the actual amounts
ultimately incurred to complete the related activities.

     For the year ended December 31, 2001 the Corporation recorded
non-recurring pretax charges as follows:

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

expires between 2002 and 2011 and $48,000 has no expiration date. In addition,
the Corporation has recorded a valuation allowance against approximately
$252,000 of temporary differences that are available for utilization in future
years.

The Corporation has reduced deferred tax assets by a valuation allowance for a
portion of its deferred tax assets to the extent that it believes, based on
the weight of available evidence, it is more likely than not that those assets
will not be realized.

18. EARNINGS AND FULLY DILUTED EARNINGS PER COMMON SHARE

     The earnings per share calculations are based on the weighted average
number of common shares outstanding during the year. For 2001 and 2000, the
fully diluted earnings per share calculation excludes potentially dilutive
items as their effect would be antidilutive. In 1999, the diluted common shares
outstanding include 306,000 shares related to employee stock options.

19. SEGMENTED INFORMATION

     In December 2000, the Corporation changed its executive management and the
Board of Directors and established a new strategic initiative that resulted in
the establishment of a new operating platform during the third quarter of 2001.
This realignment was made in order to segregate non-print related businesses
and align core businesses to take advantage of synergies and capitalize on core
competencies. The new segmentation reflects management's current structure with
regard to management's process for making decisions as it relates to resource
allocation and performance evaluation. During 2000, the Corporation operated in
four reportable segments as follows: Moore North America, Customer
Communication Services (United States), Latin America and Europe. Prior year
segment information has been reclassified to conform to the current year
presentation.

     The Corporation operates in the printing industry with three distinct
operating segments based on the way management assesses information on a
regular basis for decision-making purposes. The three segments are Forms and
Labels, Outsourcing and Commercial. These segments market print and print
related products and services to a geographically diverse customer base.

     The Corporation's reportable segments are:

20. LEASE COMMITMENTS

     At December 31, 2001, long-term lease commitments require approximate
future rental payments as follows:

2002                $32,835               2005                          $15,432
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2003                $24,443               2006                          $12,215
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2004                $19,992               2007 and thereafter           $34,768
================================================================================

     Rent expense amounted to $56,499 in 2001 (2000 -- $69,897; 1999 --
$63,344).

21. CONTINGENCIES

     At December 31, 2001, certain lawsuits and other claims were pending
against the Corporation. While the outcome of these matters is subject to
future resolution, management's evaluation and analysis of such matters
indicates that, individually and in the aggregate, the probable ultimate
resolution of such matters will not have a material effect on the Corporation's
consolidated financial statements.

     The Corporation is subject to laws and regulations relating to the
protection of the environment. The Corporation provides for expenses associated
with environmental remediation obligations when such amounts are probable and
can be reasonably estimated. Such accruals are adjusted as new information
develops or circumstances change and are not discounted. While it is not
possible to quantify with certainty the potential impact of actions regarding
environmental matters, particularly remediation and other compliance efforts
that the Corporation's subsidiaries may undertake in the future, in the opinion
of management, compliance with the present environmental protection laws,
before taking into account estimated recoveries from third parties, will not
have a material adverse effect upon the results of operations or consolidated
financial condition of the Corporation.

22. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

     At December 31, 2001, the aggregate amount of forward exchange contracts
used as hedges was approximately $13,700 (2000 -- $18,300). Notional gains and
losses from these contracts, for all years shown, were not significant.

     The Corporation may be exposed to losses if the counterparties to the above
contracts fail to perform. The Corporation manages this risk by dealing only
with financially sound counterparties and by establishing dollar and term limits
for each counterparty. The Corporation does not use derivative financial
instruments for trading purposes.

23. CASH FLOW DISCLOSURE

     For the year ended December 31, 2001, the following non-cash transactions
are required to be disclosed for both Canadian and United States GAAP as
follows:


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Subordinated convertible debentures                                      $71,506
Inducement to certain debenture holders                                   15,345
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

24. DIFFERENCES BETWEEN CANADIAN AND UNITED STATES GENERALLY ACCEPTED
    ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES

     The continued registration of the common shares of the Corporation with
the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and listing of the shares on the
New York Stock Exchange require compliance with the integrated disclosure rules
of the SEC.

     The accounting policies in Note 1 and accounting principles generally
accepted in Canada are consistent in all material aspects with United States
generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) with the following exceptions.

PENSIONS AND POSTRETIREMENT BENEFITS (SFAS NO. 87 AND 106)

     With the introduction of CICA 3461, Employee Future Benefits, there is no
longer a difference in the method of accounting for these costs. The
transitional rules for implementing the new Canadian standard continue to
result in United States GAAP reporting differences.

     Prior to 2000, under Canadian GAAP, the discount rate for pensions was a
long-term interest rate, whereas under United States GAAP, the discount rate
reflects a rate at which the pension obligation could effectively be settled.
For United States GAAP, the discount rates used in 1999 for Canada and the
United States were 6.25% and 6.75%, respectively. Prior to 2000, postretirement
benefits were expensed as incurred under Canadian GAAP whereas under United
States GAAP the expected costs of these benefits were expensed during the years
employees render services.

STATEMENT OF CASH FLOWS (SFAS NO. 95)

     For Canadian GAAP the Statements of Cash Flows discloses the net change in
cash resources, which is defined as cash less bank indebtedness. United States
GAAP requires the disclosure of cash and cash equivalents. Under United States
GAAP, net cash provided (used) by financing activities for 2001, 2000, and 1999
would be $(66,315), $18,451, and $(36,895), respectively. Cash and cash
equivalents were $84,855, $36,538 and $38,179 for the years ended December 31,
2001, 2000 and 1999, respectively.

INCOME TAXES (SFAS NO. 109)

     SFAS No. 109 requires a liability method under which temporary differences
are tax effected at enacted rates, whereas under Canadian GAAP, temporary
differences are tax effected using substantively enacted rates and laws that
will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse (see Note 17).

STOCK COMPENSATION (SFAS NO. 123)

     SFAS No. 123 requires pro forma disclosures of net income and earnings per
share, as if the fair value-based method of accounting for employee stock
options had been applied. The Corporation uses the intrinsic value method for
accounting for stock options. The disclosures in the table show the
Corporation's net income and earnings per share on a proforma basis using the
fair value method and Black-Scholes option pricing model.

COMPREHENSIVE INCOME (SFAS NO. 130)

     SFAS No. 130 requires disclosure of comprehensive income and its
components. Comprehensive income is the change in equity of the Corporation
from transactions and other events other than those


                                       44
<PAGE>

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

resulting from transactions with owners, and is comprised of net income and
other comprehensive income. The only components of other comprehensive income
for the Corporation are unrealized foreign currency translation adjustments and
unrealized gains (losses) on available-for-sale securities. Under Canadian
GAAP, there is no standard for reporting comprehensive income.

ACCOUNTING FOR DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES (SFAS NO. 133)

     In June 1998, the United States Financial Accounting Standards Board
issued SFAS No. 133, which standardized the accounting for all derivatives.
This standard required implementation for all fiscal quarters for fiscal years
beginning after June 15, 2000. The adoption of this standard did not have a
significant impact on earnings or the statement of cash flows. There is no such
standard under Canadian GAAP.

FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION

     Under United States GAAP, foreign currency translation gains or losses are
only recognized on the sale or substantial liquidation of a foreign subsidiary.
Under Canadian GAAP, a foreign currency gain or loss due to a partial
liquidation is recognized in income.

BUSINESS PROCESS REENGINEERING

     Under United States GAAP, business process reengineering activities are
expensed as incurred. Prior to October 28, 1998, Canadian GAAP permitted these
costs to be capitalized or expensed. Subsequent to October 28, 1998, Canadian
GAAP requires the cost of business process reengineering activities to be
expensed as incurred. Prior to October 28, 1998, the Corporation capitalized
business process reengineering costs and classified them as computer software.

CONVERTIBLE DEBENTURES

     Canadian GAAP requires that a portion of the subordinated convertible
debentures be classified as equity. The difference between the carrying amount
of the debenture and contractual liability is amortized to earnings. United
States GAAP would classify the subordinated convertible debentures as a
liability.

     Under United States GAAP, when convertible debt is converted to equity
securities pursuant to an inducement offer, the debtor is required to recognize
in earnings, the fair value of all securities and other consideration
transferred in excess of the fair value of the securities issuable in
accordance with the original conversion terms. Under Canadian GAAP, the fair
value of the securities issued is charged to retained earnings. Also under
Canadian GAAP, certain other contingent consideration is not recognized until
paid.

     Under United States GAAP, when convertible debt is converted to equity
securities, any unamortized deferred debt issuance costs are charged to share
capital. Under Canadian GAAP, these costs are charged to earnings.

TERMINATION LIABILITIES

     Under United States GAAP, a liability for termination benefits is
recognized provided that certain conditions are met and the details of the
approved benefit arrangement are communicated to the employees. Prior to 2000,
Canadian GAAP did not require that the benefit arrangement be communicated to
the employees prior to recognition.

SETTLEMENTS OF PENSION PLANS (SFAS NO. 88)

     Under United States GAAP, a gain or loss arising upon the settlement of a
pension plan is only recognized once responsibility for the pension obligation
has been relieved. Under Canadian GAAP, prior


                                       45
<PAGE>

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

to January 1, 2000, an intention to settle or curtail a pension plan that was
expected to result in a loss, required recognition once the amount was likely
and could be reasonably estimated. The provision for restructuring costs
recorded in 1998 included a contingent loss on settlement that has now been
recognized under United States GAAP.

     The following tables provides information required under United States
GAAP:

25. PENDING ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

     In July 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 141, "Business Combinations" ("SFAS 141")
and Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 142, "Goodwill and Other
Intangible Assets" ("SFAS 142"). The guidance of these standards is consistent
with CICA Section 1581 and Section 3061.

     In August 2001, the CICA issued Handbook Section 1581, Business
Combinations and Handbook Section 3062, Goodwill and other Intangible Assets.
Section 1581 requires all business combinations to be accounted for using the
purchase method of accounting and is effective for all business combinations
consummated after June 30, 2001. Section 3062, which is effective for fiscal
years beginning January 1, 2002 requires that the carrying value of goodwill be
evaluated annually for impairment and disallows the amortization of goodwill.
The standard also requires reclassification of identifiable intangibles out of
previously reported goodwill. Identifiable intangibles are amortized over their
estimated useful lives and will be reviewed annually for impairment. The
Corporation does not believe that either of these accounting standards will
have a material impact upon its financial condition or results of operations.

     In October 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No.
144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets. SFAS No.
144 supersedes previous guidelines for financial accounting and reporting for
the impairment or disposal of long-lived assets and for segments of a business
to be disposed of. The adoption of SFAS No. 144 on January 1, 2002 is not
expected to have a material impact on the Corporation's financial position or
results of operations.

     In 2001, the Accounting Standards Board has amended CICA Handbook section
1650 -- Foreign Currency Translation. The amendment eliminates the deferral and
amortization of unrealized translation gains and losses on non-current monetary
assets and liabilities and requires that exchange gain or loss arising on
translation of a foreign currency denominated non-monetary item carried at
market be included in income in the current reporting period. These amendments
will be effective for fiscal years commencing on or after January 1, 2002 and
should be applied retroactively, with restatement to prior period financial
statements. The adoption of this section is not expected to have a material
impact on the Corporation's financial position or results of operations.

     In 2001, the CICA issued Handbook Section 3870 that establishes standards
for the recognition, measurement and disclosure of stock-based compensation and
other stock-based payments made in exchange for goods and services. It applies
to transactions, including non-reciprocal transactions, in which an enterprise
grants shares of common stock, stock options, or other equity instruments, or
incurs liabilities based on the price of common stock or other equity
instruments. The Standard encourages fair value measurement and recognition of
equity instruments awarded to employees and cost of services received as
consideration. The Standard must be implemented by all public enterprises in
fiscal years commencing January 1, 2002. An enterprise that has not applied the
fair value based method of


                                       47
<PAGE>

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

accounting should disclose for each period the pro forma net income and
earnings per share, as if the fair value based accounting method had been used.
The pro forma disclosure should be provided for awards granted in fiscal years
beginning on or after January 1, 2002, but need not be provided for awards
granted before that date. The Corporation will disclose the required pro forma
effects.

     In 2001, the Accounting Standards Board of the CICA issued Accounting
Guidelines No. 13 that increases the documentation, designation and
effectiveness criteria to achieve hedge accounting. The guideline requires the
discontinuance of hedge accounting for hedging relationships established that
do not meet the conditions at the date it is first applied. It does not change
the method of accounting for derivatives in hedging relationships, but requires
fair value accounting for derivatives that do not qualify for hedge accounting.
The new guideline is applicable for fiscal years commencing July 1, 2002. The
Corporation is evaluating the impact this standard might have on its results of
operations and financial position.

26. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

     On January 31, 2002, the Corporation completed the acquisition of
privately held The Nielsen Company ("Nielsen"). Nielsen specializes in
producing high quality commercial print, which includes annual reports,
brochures, catalogs, pharmaceutical inserts, and marketing promotional
material.

     On February 7, 2002, the Corporation announced a program to repurchase up
to $50 million of its shares. The program calls for shares to be purchased on
the NYSE from time to time depending upon market conditions, market price of
the common shares an the assessment of the cash flow needs by Corporation
management.

AUDITORS' REPORT

To the Shareholders of Moore Corporation Limited:

     We have audited the consolidated balance sheet of Moore Corporation
Limited as at December 31, 2000 and the consolidated statements of operations,
retained earnings and cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended
December 31, 2000. These consolidated financial statements are the
responsibility of the Corporation's management. Our responsibility is to
express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our
audits.

     We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally
accepted in Canada and the United States of America. Those standards require
that we plan and perform an audit to obtain reasonable assurance 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.

     In our opinion, these consolidated financial statements present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of the Corporation as at December
31, 2000 and the results of its operations and the changes in its cash flows
for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2000 in accordance
with generally accepted accounting principles in Canada.

COMMENTS BY AUDITORS FOR U.S. READERS ON CANADA-U.S. REPORTING DIFFERENCE

     In the United States, reporting standards for auditors require the
addition of an explanatory paragraph (following the opinion paragraph) when
there is a change in accounting principles that has a material effect on the
comparability of the Corporation's financial statements, such as the changes
described in Note 2 to the financial statements. Our report to the shareholders
dated February 22, 2001 is expressed in accordance with Canadian reporting
standards which do not require a reference to such changes in accounting
principles in the auditors' report when the change is properly accounted for
and adequately disclosed in the financial statements.

AUDITORS' REPORT

To the Shareholders of Moore Corporation Limited:

     We have audited the consolidated balance sheet of Moore Corporation
Limited as at December 31, 2001 and the consolidated statements of operations,
retained earnings 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 audit.

     We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally
accepted in Canada and the United States of America. Those standards require
that we plan and perform an audit to obtain reasonable assurance 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, these consolidated financial statements present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of the Company as at December 31,
2001 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year ended
December 31, 2001 in accordance with Canadian generally accepted accounting
principles.

     The financial statements as at December 31, 2000 and 1999 and for the
years then ended, prior to the change in accounting policy for earnings per
share as described in Note 2, the restatement of segmented information in Note
19 to conform with management's process for making decisions with regard to
resource allocation and performance evaluation and reclassification of various
amounts to conform to the current year's presentation, were audited by other
auditors who expressed an opinion without reservation on those statements in
their report dated February 22, 2001. We have audited the adjustments and
reclassifications to the 2000 and 1999 financial statements and in our opinion,
such adjustments and reclassifications, in all material respects, are
appropriate and have been properly applied.
