The Gross Profit % was negatively affected, as anticipated, by the lower inherent gross margins of Autotype, and higher raw material prices, and by unfavorable overhead variances primarily in the USA due to factory upgrades resulting in temporarily higher unit production costs as new plant capacity was ramped up to normal production levels. Raw material costs increased $2.2 million or $.05 per share in the quarter, as price increases lagged higher costs. It is expected these higher costs will be fully recovered in the first half of 2006.

Full-Year Operating Results

Sales for the twelve months ended December 31, 2005 were $738.0 million, or an 11.7% increase compared to the same period in the prior year. The company's acquisition of Autotype in June 2005 contributed $49.7 million to sales for the six and a half months ended December 31, 2005. On a year to date basis, sales benefited by $1.7 million as the dollar remains weaker than the Euro and British Pound Sterling on a year to date average basis. On a constant dollar basis and excluding the Autotype acquisition our sales increased by 3.9%.

Advanced Surface Finishing ("ASF") segment

ASF segment sales for the fourth quarter 2005 increased by $9.0 million, or 9.0%, compared to the same quarter in the prior year. The acquisition of Autotype contributed $11.6 million, or 11.5%, to this increase. Sales in other ASF businesses decreased $2.6 million, or 2.6% primarily to order patterns in Offshore Solutions. For the twelve months ended December 31, 2005, sales increased $36.5 million, or 9.4%, compared to the prior year. The acquisition of Autotype contributed $24.6 million, or 6.4%, to this increase. Sales in other ASF businesses increased $12.0 million, or 3.1%. The Asia and Offshore divisions predominantly contributed to this increase.

ASF segment gross profit for the fourth quarter decreased 5.0% compared to the same quarter last year. For the twelve months ended December 31, 2005, ASF segment gross profit declined 3.5%. The decrease is due primarily to the increase in raw material costs and lower sales and production volumes which negatively affected overhead costs overhead costs

. The lower gross profit percentage on lower fourth quarter sales and the increased price of raw materials amounting to 1.1% of sales were also contributors to the lower operating profit. Price increases implemented in the quarter are expected to reverse this effect in 2006.

Excluding the special charges (purchase accounting and restructuring) in the ASF segment amounting to $1.8 million and the effect of the Autotype acquisition, the operating profit for the twelve months would have been $61.1 million, which is 2.6% less than the prior year.

Profits in Asia did not grow at normal levels due to significant investment in infrastructure including a new technical and manufacturing facility in China. Many of these costs are a "step function" and as such will remain relatively fixed. As a result it is believed starting in 2006 the normal level of profit growth will return to this important region.

Printing Solutions Segment ("MPS")

The Printing Solutions segment increased sales $15.1 million, or 21.1% in the fourth quarter of 2005. The Autotype and Colorspan divisions contributed strongly to the quarterly increase. Packaging revenues grew in the quarter. Newspaper order pattern was negative for the quarter. For the twelve months ended December 31, 2005, sales increased $40.7 million, or 14.9%, compared to the prior year.

MPS segment gross profit decreased 3.3% in the fourth quarter and 3.1% for the twelve months ended December 31, 2005. The decline is attributable to lower inherent gross margins for Autotype, increased raw material costs, plant upgrade and start up expenses.

MPS segment operating profit for the fourth quarter decreased by 24.9% compared to the same period last year. The acquisition of Autotype and excellent performance of ColorSpan diminished the effect of this decrease. Excluding the effects of Autotype and Colorspan's positive impact on earnings and the restructuring costs of $ 1.2 million in the quarter, MPS operating profit decreased by $2.5 million compared to the same quarter last year due to lower sales, higher raw material and factory costs and higher selling and technical and R & D expenses, primarily in the Americas A·mer·i·cas   , the

. Multimillion dollar investments were incurred in R&D for computer to plate technology in newspaper printing and the establishment of a new plate R&D team in Europe. It is expected these investments while costly in 2005, will lead to higher revenues in the future. In 2005 a new plant in Europe to produce newspaper printing plates was successfully commissioned and is ramping up. It is believed this market represents excellent growth opportunities.

For the twelve months ended December 31st 2005, operating profit decreased 24.8% compared to the prior year. Excluding the effects of Autotype and the restructuring costs of $1.9 million the MPS operating profit decreased by $10.6 million compared to last year due to lower sales in Europe, increases in raw material costs, higher plant costs and increased selling & technical costs, increased spending on R&D and the legal settlement amounting to $2.5 million in the second quarter.

Autotype acquisition

The acquisition of Autotype in June of 2005 added product lines to the ASF and MPS segments. On a consolidated basis, Autotype added $ 22.3 million of sales for the quarter and $49.7 million dollars in sales for the year. Management continues to integrate synergies that are expected to result in performance in 2006 at levels planned in the acquisitions models used in evaluating this acquisition.

(a) as a result of the Company's sale of Eurocir in Q4 2003, all
applicable historical figures have been modified to exclude the
results now reflected as Discontinued Operations.

(b) "Gross Profit Before Special Charges" and "Operating Profit
Special Charges" are not intended to represent Net Earnings as defined
by Generally Accepted Accounting Principles. These measurements should
not be used as an alternative to Net Earnings as an indicator of
operating performance and may not be comparable to similarly titled
measures used by other entities. Management believes that these
measurements portray a meaningful measure of past operating
performance and believes these measurements play an important factor
toward the growth of shareholder value over time.

(a) as a result of the Company's sale of Eurocir in Q4 2003, all
applicable historical figures have been modified to exclude the
results now reflected as Discontinued Operations.

(b) "EPS from Continuing Operations Before Special Charges and
Stock Compensation", "EBITDA from Continuing Operations Before Special
Charges" and "Owners Earnings" are not intended to represent Net
Earnings (loss) or Net Cash Flow From Operating Activities as defined
by Generally Accepted Accounting Principles. These measurements should
not be used as an alternative to Net Earnings or Net Cash Flow From
Operating Activities as an indicator of operating performance and may
not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other entities.
Management believes that these measurements portray a meaningful
measure of past operating performance and believes these measurements
play an important factor toward the growth of shareholder value over
time.
