Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Participants and Administrator
Ennis, Inc. 401(k) Plan
We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available for benefits (modified cash basis) of the Ennis, Inc. 401(k) Plan (the Plan) as of December 31, 2011 and 2010, and the related statement of changes in net assets available for benefits (modified cash basis) for the year ended December 31, 2011. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Plans management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Plans internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. 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 audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
As described in Note 2, the financial statements and supplemental schedule were prepared on a modified cash basis of accounting, which is a comprehensive basis of accounting other than accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the net assets available for benefits (modified cash basis) of the Ennis, Inc. 401(k) Plan as of December 31, 2011 and 2010, and the changes in net assets available for benefits (modified cash basis) for the year ended December 31, 2011, in conformity with the modified cash basis of accounting described in Note 2.
Our audits were performed for the purpose of forming an opinion on the financial statements taken as a whole. The accompanying supplemental schedule of assets (held at end of year) (modified cash basis) as of December 31, 2011, is presented for purposes of additional analysis and is not a required part of the financial statements but is supplementary information required by the Department of Labors Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. Such information is the responsibility of the Plans management. The information has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in our audits of the financial statements and, in our opinion, is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the financial statements taken as a whole.

1. | Description of the Plan |
The following description of the Ennis, Inc. 401(k) Plan (the Plan) provides only general information. Participants should refer to the Plan document for a more complete description of the Plans provisions.
(a) | General |
The Plan is a defined contribution plan covering substantially all employees of Ennis, Inc. (the Company). The Plan is subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended, (ERISA) and the Internal Revenue Code (IRC).
The Plan was formed February 1, 1994 and restated in its entirety effective January 1, 2010 to conform with ERISA and IRC regulations. On March 1, 2011, the Plan was amended and the assets were transferred and invested with a new custodian, American United Life Insurance Company (AUL).
(b) | Eligibility |
Employees age 18 and older of the Company are eligible to participate in the Plan and receive matching contributions after completing 60 days of service, as defined by the Plan.
Employees are eligible to receive discretionary profit sharing contributions, if granted, after completing 1,000 hours within their first 12 months of service.
(c) | Contributions |
Participants may make voluntary contributions to the Plan ranging from 1% to 100% of eligible pay subject to the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) annual limitations. The Plan allows catch-up contributions (within the meaning of Section 414(v) of the IRC) for participants who have reached age 50 by the end of the plan year. The Plan also allows rollovers of distributions from other qualified plans.
The Company makes discretionary matching contributions at a rate determined by the plan sponsor for certain employees not enrolled in the Pension Plan for employees of the Company. The total matching contribution is not to exceed $1,500 or 3% of the employees annual salary, or discretionary employer contributions. Eligibility for employer contributions depends on the participants employment location as defined in the plan document.
The Plan automatically enrolls all newly eligible participants into the Plan at a 2% deferral rate.
In addition, each year, the Company may at its discretion, make profit sharing contributions for the plan year not to exceed certain limitations prescribed by the IRC. During 2011, the Company declared a discretionary profit sharing contribution of $269,000 on behalf of the former employees of Northstar Computer Forms, Inc. in accordance with its original plan. This contribution will be contributed to the Plan in 2012. The Northstar Computer Forms, Inc. 401(k) Profit Sharing Plan was merged into the Plan on February 1, 2001.
(d) | Participant Accounts |
Each participants account is credited with the participants contribution, any employer contributions, and the allocation of the Plan earnings. Allocations are based on participant earnings or account balances, as defined in the Plan document. The benefit to which a participant is entitled is the benefit that can be provided from the participants vested interest in his or her account.

Notes to Financial Statements (Modified Cash Basis)
1. | Description of the Plan - continued |
(e) | Vesting |
Participants are immediately vested in their salary deferrals, rollover contributions, and employer matching contributions. Profit sharing contributions vest over a 5 year graded vesting schedule as defined in the plan document. Special vesting schedules ranging from 3 to 6 years apply to certain employees based on their location as defined in the plan document.
(f) | Notes Receivable from participants |
Under provisions of the Plan, participants are allowed to borrow from their Plan accounts. The maximum amount that a participant may borrow is the lesser of (i) 50% of their total vested account balance or (ii) $50,000 less the highest loan balance outstanding. Note repayments are made in equal installments through payroll deductions generally over a term not to exceed five years. All notes are considered a directed investment from the participants Plan account with all payments of principal and interest credited to the participants account. A maximum number of two outstanding notes are allowed per individual. The minimum note is $1,000 and there is a $100 set-up fee payable for each note. The interest rate is determined based on the prime rate as determined by the Plans trustee plus 1%.
(g) | Payment of benefits |
Upon termination of service, financial hardship, retirement, or disability, the participant or their beneficiary has the option to withdrawal qualified amounts up to the participants vested account balance. Participants that reach the age of 70 1/2 are required to take a minimum distribution from their account.
(h) | Administrative expenses |
In accordance with the Plan, all administrative expenses may be paid out of the Plan unless paid by the Company. During the year ended December 31, 2011, substantially all of the Plans administrative expenses were paid by the Company.
2. | Summary of Significant Accounting Policies |
(a) | Basis of Accounting |
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on the modified cash basis of accounting and present the net assets available for benefits and changes in those net assets. Consequently, certain additions and the related assets are recognized when received rather than when earned and certain deductions are recognized when paid rather than when the obligation is incurred. The modified cash basis of accounting is a comprehensive basis of accounting other than accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
(b) | Use of Estimates |
The preparation of the Plans financial statements in conformity with the modified cash basis of accounting requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of additions and deductions to net assets available for benefits during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. See Note 5 for discussion of significant estimates used to measure fair value of investments.

2. | Summary of Significant Accounting Policies - continued |
(c) | Investments Valuation and Income Recognition |
There were no changes in the Plans valuation methodologies for its investments during the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010. The valuation methods described below may produce a fair value measurement that may not be indicative of net realizable value or reflective of future fair values. Furthermore, while the Plans management believes the valuation methods are appropriate and consistent with other market participants, the use of differing methodologies or assumptions to determine the fair values of the Plans investments could result in different fair value measurements at the reporting dates.
The Plan provides for investments in a guaranteed investment contract (GIC) and pooled-separate accounts (including a Company stock fund). The Plans investments are stated at fair value (see Note 5). The GIC investment is fully benefit-responsive and is stated at contract value, which is equal to principal plus accrued interest. An investment contract is generally valued at contract value, rather than at fair value, to the extent it is fully benefit-responsive (see Note 4).
Purchases and sales of securities are recorded on a trade-date basis. Interest income is recorded on the cash basis. Dividends are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Net appreciation (depreciation) includes the Plans gains and losses on investments bought and sold, as well as held during the year.
(d) | Notes receivable from participants |
Notes receivable from participants are reported at their unpaid principal balance. An allowance for credit losses is not necessary as the notes are collateralized by the participants account balance. Delinquent notes from participants are reclassified as distributions based upon provisions of the Plan document. Participant loans are considered delinquent if any payment of principal and interest, or any portion thereof, remains unpaid for more than 90 days after due.
(e) | Benefits paid to participants |
Benefits paid to participants are recorded as a reduction of net assets available for benefits when paid. For all employees who have terminated with an account balance between $1,000 and $5,000, the Plan Administrator has the right to automatically rollover the balance to an individual retirement plan designated by the Administrator, at the expense of the Plan. For terminated employees with a vested account balance less than $1,000, a check will be issued to the participant.
(f) | Forfeitures |
Forfeitures may be used to reduce future employer contributions or to pay administrative expenses. There were unallocated forfeitures of approximately $227,000 and $210,000 at December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. No forfeitures were used during the year ended December 31, 2011.
(g) | Subsequent Events |
Management of the Plan has evaluated subsequent events through June 28, 2012, the date the financial statements were issued, and determined that there were no significant events, that were either required to be recorded as of December 31, 2011, or disclosed in the financial statements.

2. | Summary of Significant Accounting Policies - continued |
(h) | Risks and Uncertainties |
The Plan and its participants invest in various investment securities. Investment securities, in general, are exposed to various risks, such as interest rate, market and credit. Due to the level of risk associated with certain investment securities, it is possible that changes in the value of investment securities will occur at any given time, and that such changes could materially affect participants account balances and the amounts reported in the statements of net assets available for benefits.
(i) | New Accounting Pronouncements |
In January 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued guidance which expanded the required disclosures about fair value measurements. This guidance requires information about purchases, sales, issuances and settlements to be presented separately in the reconciliation for Level 3 fair value measurements and is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 31, 2010. The adoption of the guidance did not have a material impact on the Plan financial statements.
In May 2011, the FASB issued guidance which amends Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 820. This guidance requires the categorization by level for items that are only required to be disclosed at fair value and information about transfers between Level 1 and Level 2. In addition, it provides guidance on measuring the fair value of financial instruments managed within a portfolio and the application of premiums and discounts on fair value measurements. The guidance requires additional disclosure for Level 3 measurements regarding the sensitivity of fair value to changes in unobservable inputs and any interrelationships between those inputs. The new guidance is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 31, 2011. Plan management is currently evaluating the impact that this guidance will have on the Plans financial statement disclosures.

3. | Investments |
Participants may direct the allocation of amounts deferred to the available investment options. Provisions of the Plan allow participant contributions in 5% increments to be vested in any of the available options.

4. | Investments in Insurance Contracts |
As discussed in Note, 1, the Plan switched providers from ILIAC to AUL. The Plan maintains one GIC related investment option, the AUL Fixed Account. While with ILIAC, the Plan maintained one GIC related investment option, the ING Fixed Account. The underlying investment options of these contracts are considered to be fully benefit-responsive as described in FASB ASC 946, Plan-Accounting-Defined Contribution Pension Plans. As of December 31, 2011 and 2010, the contract value of these investments is $11,112,212 and $10,575,028, respectively.
The average yields for the contract for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, were 3.00% and 3.35%, respectively. The crediting interest rates for the contract as of December 31, 2011 and 2010 were 2.5% and 3.5%, respectively. The minimum crediting interest rates for the contract for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010 were 3.00% and 3.05%, respectively.
The determination of credited interest rates, as determined by the service providers, reflect a number of factors, including mortality and expense risks, interest rate guarantees, the investment income earned on invested assets and the amortization of any capital gains and/or losses realized on the sale of invested assets. A market value adjustment may apply to amounts withdrawn at the request of the contract holder.
The underlying contract has no restrictions on the use of Plan assets and there are no valuation reserves recorded to adjust contract amounts.
Certain events limit the ability of the Plan to transact at contract value with the issuer. Such events include the following: (i) amendments to the Plan documents (including complete or partial plan termination or merger with another plan) (ii) changes to the Plans prohibition on competing investment options or deletion of equity wash provisions; or (iii) the failure of the trust to qualify for exemption from federal income taxes or any required prohibited transaction exemption under ERISA. The Plan Administrator does not believe that the occurrence of any such event, which would limit the Plans ability to transact at contract value with participants, is probable.
The Fixed Account does not permit AUL to terminate the agreement prior to the scheduled maturity date.

5. | Fair Value Measurements |
Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement Accounting Standards Codification 820 Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (ASC 820) establishes a framework for measuring fair value. This framework provides a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value.
The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are described below:
Level 1: Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2: Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quotes quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.
Level 3: Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the asset or liabilities.
An asset or liabilitys classification within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of significant input to its valuation. Valuation techniques used need to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs.
Following is a description of the valuation methodologies used for assets measured at fair value:
Company stock fund: The fund is made up of Ennis, Inc. stock which is valued at the closing price reporting on the active market on which the security is traded. The fund also consists of cash component to initiate and close daily trade activity. The cash component is valued at cost which approximates fair value.
Pooled separate accounts: The units of the pooled separate accounts are determined at the close of each business day and are directly related to the net asset value of the underlying investment adjusted for dividends or distributions received by the Custodian and the daily equivalent of any fees charged.
Guaranteed investment contract: Valued at the amount plan participants or plan sponsors would receive if they were to withdraw or transfer funds within the Plan prior to their maturity.
Fair value estimates are made at a specific point in time, based on available market information and judgments about the financial asset, including estimates of timing, amount of expected future cash flows, and the credit standing of the issuer. In some cases, the fair value estimates cannot be substantiated by comparison to independent markets. The disclosed fair value may not be realized in the immediate settlement of the financial asset. In addition, the disclosed fair values do not reflect any premium or discount that could result from offering for sale at one time an entire holding of a particular financial asset. Potential taxes and other expenses that would be incurred in an actual sale or settlement are not reflected in amounts disclosed.

6. | Plan Termination |

7. | Tax Status of Plan |
The Plan has obtained its latest determination letter dated November 7, 2001, in which the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) stated that the Plan, as then designed, was in compliance with the applicable requirements of the Internal Revenue Code (IRC). Amendments have subsequently been made to the Plan and the Company has filed for an updated determination letter with the IRS. The Plans administrator and management believe that the Plan is currently designed and being operated in compliance with the applicable requirements of the IRC. Therefore, no provision for income taxes has been included in the Plans financial statements.
Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require Plan management to evaluate tax positions taken by the Plan and recognize a tax liability (or asset) if the Plan has taken an uncertain position that more likely than not would not be sustained upon examination by the IRS. The plan administrator has analyzed the tax positions taken by the Plan, and has concluded that as of December 31, 2011, there are no uncertain positions taken or expected to be taken that would require recognition of a liability (or asset) or disclosure in the Plans financial statements. The IRS generally has the ability to examine Plan activity for up to three years.
8. | Parties in Interest |
Certain plan investments are guaranteed investment contracts and pooled separate accounts managed by AUL or formerly ILIAC (the Custodians). The Custodians act as the trustee and recordkeeper as defined by the Plan, and therefore, these transactions qualify as party-in-interest transactions. The Plan also invests in a Company common stock fund, and therefore, these transactions qualify as party-in-interest transactions.
