NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE PERIOD ENDED MAY 31, 2015

1. Significant Accounting Policies and General Matters

Basis of Presentation

These unaudited consolidated financial statements of Ennis, Inc. and its subsidiaries (collectively referred to as the “Company,” “Registrant,” “Ennis,” or “we,” “us,” or “our”) for the period ended May 31, 2015 have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial reporting. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended February 28, 2015, from which the accompanying consolidated balance sheet at February 28, 2015 was derived. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation of the interim financial information have been included and are of a normal recurring nature. In preparing the financial statements, the Company is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the disclosure and reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The Company evaluates these estimates and judgments on an ongoing basis, including those related to bad debts, inventory valuations, property, plant and equipment, intangible assets, pension plan, accrued liabilities, and income taxes. The Company bases estimates and judgments on historical experience and on various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. The results of operations for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations for a full year.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)” (“ASU No. 2014-09”), which requires an entity to recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which it expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. ASU No. 2014-09 supersedes most existing revenue recognition guidance in U.S. GAAP. This guidance is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within that reporting period, and early application is not permitted. The guidance permits the use of either the retrospective or cumulative effect transition method. The Company is evaluating the effect that ASU No. 2014-09 will have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

2. Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Receivables

Accounts receivable are reduced by an allowance for an estimate of amounts that are uncollectible. Substantially all of the Company’s receivables are due from customers in North America. The Company extends credit to its customers based upon its evaluation of the following factors: (i) the customer’s financial condition, (ii) the amount of credit the customer requests, and (iii) the customer’s actual payment history (which includes disputed invoice resolution). The Company does not typically require its customers to post a deposit or supply collateral. The Company’s allowance for doubtful receivables is based on an analysis that estimates the amount of its total customer receivable balance that is not collectible. This analysis includes assessing a default probability to customers’ receivable balances, which is influenced by several factors including (i) current market conditions, (ii) periodic review of customer credit worthiness, and (iii) review of customer receivable aging and payment trends.

The Company writes off accounts receivable when they become uncollectible, and payments subsequently received on such receivables are credited to the allowance in the period the payment is received. Credit losses from continuing operations have consistently been within management’s expectations.

3. Inventories

The Company uses the lower of last-in, first-out (LIFO) cost or market to value certain of its business forms inventories and the lower of first-in, first-out (FIFO) cost or market to value its remaining forms and apparel inventories. The Company regularly reviews inventories on hand, using specific aging categories, and writes down the carrying value of its inventories for excess and potentially obsolete inventories based on historical usage and estimated future usage. In assessing the ultimate realization of its inventories, the Company is required to make judgments as to future demand requirements. As actual future demand or market conditions may vary from those projected by the Company, adjustments to inventories may be required.

The following table summarizes the components of inventories at the different stages of production as of the dates indicated (in thousands):

4. Acquisitions

On December 31, 2014, the Company completed the acquisition of Kay Toledo Tag and Special Service Partners and their related entities (collectively “Kay Toledo”) for $16.2 million, in a stock purchase transaction. An additional $1.0 million is available to be paid to the sellers over the next 3 years under an earn-out provision if certain financial metrics are achieved. The goodwill recognized as a part of this acquisition is not tax deductible. Kay Toledo has locations in Toledo, Ohio and Neenah, Wisconsin through Special Service Partners.

Kay Toledo, which generated approximately $25.0 million in unaudited sales during calendar year 2014, will continue to operate under its respective brand names. For the three months ended May 31, 2015, Kay Toledo added $6.2 million in sales and $0.9 million in earnings (pre-tax).

5. Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of net assets of acquired businesses and is not amortized. Goodwill and indefinite-lived intangibles are evaluated for impairment on an annual basis as of November 30 of each year, or more frequently if impairment indicators arise, using a fair-value-based test that compares the fair value of the asset to its carrying value. Goodwill and other intangible assets are tested for impairment at a reporting unit level, which the Company has determined is at the Print Segment and Apparel Segment level. The impairment test for goodwill uses a two-step approach. Step one compares the fair value of the reporting unit to which goodwill is assigned to its carrying amount. If the carrying amount exceeds its estimated value, a potential impairment is indicated and step two is performed. Step two compares the carrying amount of the reporting unit’s goodwill to its implied fair value. In calculating the implied fair value of reporting unit goodwill, the fair value of the reporting unit is allocated to all of the assets and liabilities, including unrecognized intangible assets of that reporting unit based on their fair values, similar to the allocation that occurs in a business combination. The excess of the fair value of a reporting unit over the amount assigned to its other assets and liabilities is the implied fair value of goodwill. If the carrying value of goodwill exceeds its implied fair value, an impairment charge is recognized in an amount equal to that excess. If the implied fair value of goodwill exceeds the carrying amount, goodwill is not impaired. The Company must make assumptions regarding estimated future cash flows and other factors to determine the fair value of the respective assets in assessing the recoverability of its goodwill and other intangibles. If these estimates or the related assumptions change, the Company may be required to record additional impairment charges relating to these assets in the future.

The cost of intangible assets is based on fair values at the date of acquisition. Intangible assets with determinable lives are amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful life (between 1 and 15 years). Trademarks and trade names with indefinite lives are evaluated for impairment on an annual basis, or more frequently if impairment indicators arise. The Company assesses the recoverability of its definite-lived intangible assets primarily based on its current and anticipated future undiscounted cash flows.

The carrying amount and accumulated amortization of the Company’s intangible assets at each balance sheet date are as follows (in thousands):

As of May 31, 2015	Weighted Average Remaining Life (in years)		Gross Carrying Amount		Accumulated Amortization		Net
Amortized intangible assets

On September 19, 2013, the Company entered into the Third Amendment and Consent to Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Agreement”) with a syndicate of lenders led by Bank of America, N.A. (the “Facility”). The Amendment amends and restates the financial covenant relating to Minimum Tangible Net Worth. The amended covenant requires a Minimum Tangible Net Worth of $100.0 million, with step-ups equal to 25% of consolidated net income. The Facility provides the Company access to $150.0 million in revolving credit, which the Company may increase to $200.0 million in certain circumstances, and matures on August 18, 2016. The Facility bears interest at the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) plus a spread ranging from 1.0% to 2.25% (LIBOR + 1.5% or 1.75% at May 31, 2015 and 1.65% at May 31, 2014), depending on the Company’s ratio of total funded debt to the sum of net earnings plus interest, tax, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”). As of May 31, 2015, the Company had $85.5 million of borrowings under the revolving credit line and $2.8 million outstanding under standby letters of credit arrangements, leaving the Company availability of approximately $61.7 million.

On October 20, 2008, the Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to $5.0 million of the common stock through a stock repurchase program. Under the Board-approved repurchase program, share purchases may be made from time to time in the open market or through privately negotiated transactions depending on market conditions, share price, trading volume and other factors. Such purchases, if any, will be made in accordance with applicable insider trading and other securities laws and regulations. These repurchases may be commenced or suspended at any time or from time to time without prior notice. The Board increased the authorized amount available to repurchase the Company’s shares by an additional $5.0 million on April 20, 2012 and by another $10.0 million on December 19, 2014. There were no repurchases of common stock during the three months ended May 31, 2015 and have been 718,511 common shares repurchased under the program since its inception at an average price of $13.74 per share. There is currently $10.1 million available to repurchase the Company’s common stock under the program.

9. Stock Option Plan and Stock Based Compensation

The Company grants stock options and restricted stock to key executives and managerial employees and non-employee directors. At May 31, 2015, the Company had one stock option plan, the 2004 Long-Term Incentive Plan of Ennis, Inc., as amended and restated as of June 30, 2011, formerly the 1998 Option and Restricted Stock Plan amended and restated as of May 14, 2008 (the “Plan”). The Company has 638,693 shares of unissued common stock reserved under the Plan for issuance as of May 31, 2015. The exercise price of each stock option granted under the Plan equals a referenced price of the Company’s common stock as reported on the New York Stock Exchange on the date of grant, and an option’s maximum term is ten years. Stock options and restricted stock may be granted at different times during the year and vest ratably over various periods, from grant date up to five years. The Company uses treasury stock to satisfy option exercises and restricted stock awards.

The Company recognizes compensation expense for stock options and restricted stock grants on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period. For the three months ended May 31, 2015 and May 31, 2014, the Company included in selling, general and administrative expenses, compensation expense related to share based compensation of $0.3 million ($0.2 million net of tax), and $0.4 million ($0.2 million net of tax), respectively.

The Company and certain subsidiaries have a noncontributory defined benefit retirement plan (the “Pension Plan”), covering approximately 8% of aggregate employees. Benefits are based on years of service and the employee’s average compensation for the highest five compensation years preceding retirement or termination.

10. Pension Plan-continued

Pension expense is composed of the following components included in cost of goods sold and selling, general and administrative expenses in the Company’s consolidated statements of earnings (in thousands):

	Three months ended May 31,
	2015			2014
Components of net periodic benefit cost
Service cost	$	325		$	281
Interest cost		592			612
Expected return on plan assets		(982	)		(964	)
Amortization of:
Prior service cost		(21	)		(36	)
Unrecognized net loss		638			381
Net periodic benefit cost	$	552		$	274

The Company is required to make contributions to the Pension Plan. These contributions are required under the minimum funding requirements of ERISA. Due to the enactment of the Highway and Transportation Act (HAFTA) in August 2014, plan sponsors can calculate the discount rate used to measure the Pension Plan liability using a 25-year average of interest rates plus or minus a corridor. The Company’s minimum required contribution to the Pension Plan is zero for the Pension Plan year ending February 29, 2016. However, the Company expects to make a cash contribution to the Pension Plan of between $2.0 million and $3.0 million during fiscal year 2016. The Company contributed $3.0 million to the Pension Plan during fiscal year 2015.

11. Earnings per Share

Basic earnings per share have been computed by dividing net earnings by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the applicable period. Diluted earnings per share reflect the potential dilution that could occur if stock options or other contracts to issue common shares were exercised or converted into common stock.

For the three months ended May 31, 2015 and May 31, 2014, 320,094 and 296,668 shares, respectively, related to stock options were not included in the diluted earnings per share computation because their exercise price exceeded the average fair market value of the Company’s stock. The following table sets forth the computation for basic and diluted earnings per share for the periods indicated:

	Three months ended May 31,
	2015		2014
Basic weighted average common shares outstanding		25,586,596		25,973,227
Effect of dilutive options		12,459		14,150
Diluted weighted average common shares outstanding		25,599,055		25,987,377
Per share amounts:
Net earnings – basic	$	0.36	$	0.31
Net earnings – diluted	$	0.36	$	0.31
Cash dividends	$	0.175	$	0.175

12. Segment Information and Geographic Information

The Company operates in two segments–the Print Segment and the Apparel Segment.

The Print Segment, which represented 64% of the Company’s consolidated net sales for the three months ended May 31, 2015, is in the business of manufacturing, designing, and selling business forms and other printed business products primarily to distributors located in the United States. The Print Segment operates 58 manufacturing plants throughout the United States in 22 strategically located states. Approximately 97% of the business products manufactured by the Print Segment are custom and semi-custom products, constructed in a wide variety of sizes, colors, number of parts and quantities on an individual job basis depending upon the customers’ specifications.

The products sold include snap sets, continuous forms, laser cut sheets, tags, labels, envelopes, integrated products, jumbo rolls and pressure sensitive products in short, medium and long runs under the following labels: Ennis^®, Royal Business Forms^®, Block Graphics^®, Specialized Printed Forms^®, 360º Custom Labels^SM, ColorWorx^®, Enfusion^®, Uncompromised Check Solutions^®, VersaSeal^®, Witt Printing^®, B&D Litho^®, Genforms^®, PrintGraphics^SM, Calibrated Forms^®, PrintXcel^TM, Printegra^®, Curtis Business Forms^SM, Falcon Business Forms^SM, Forms Manufacturers^SM, Mutual Graphics^SM and TRI-C Business Forms^SM. The Print Segment also sells the Adams McClure^® brand (which provides Point of Purchase advertising for large franchise and fast food chains as well as kitting and fulfillment); the Admore^® and Folder Express^® brands (which provide presentation folders and document folders); Ennis Tag & Label^SM (which provides custom printer high performance labels and custom and stock tags); Atlas Tag & Label^®, Kay Toledo Tag^SM and Special Service Partners^SM (SSP) (which provides custom and stock tags and labels); Trade Envelopes^®, Block Graphics^®, Wisco^® and National Imprint Corporation^® (which provide custom and imprinted envelopes) and Northstar^® and General Financial Supply^® (which provide financial and security documents).

The Print Segment sells predominantly through private printers and independent distributors. Northstar also sells direct to a small number of customers. Northstar has continued its focus with large banking organizations on a direct basis (where a distributor is not acceptable or available to the end-user) and has acquired several of the top 25 banks in the United States as customers and is actively working on other large banks within the top 25 tier of banks in the United States. Adams McClure sales are generally provided through advertising agencies. Assets in this segment increased in 2015 primarily as a result of the Company’s acquisition of Sovereign Business Forms and Kay Toledo.

The Apparel Segment, which accounted for 36% of the Company’s consolidated net sales for the three months ended May 31, 2015, consists of Alstyle Apparel. This group is primarily engaged in the production and sale of activewear including T-shirts, fleece goods, and other wearables. Alstyle sales are seasonal, with sales in the first and second quarters generally being the highest. Substantially all of the Apparel Segment sales are to customers in the United States.

Corporate information is included to reconcile segment data to the consolidated financial statements and includes assets and expenses related to the Company’s corporate headquarters and other administrative costs.

Segment data for the three months ended May 31, 2015 and May 31, 2014 were as follows (in thousands):

13. Concentrations of Risk

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to a concentration of credit risk principally consist of cash and trade receivables. Cash is placed with high-credit quality financial institutions. The Company believes its credit risk with respect to trade receivables is limited due to industry and geographic diversification. As disclosed on the Consolidated Balance Sheets, the Company maintains an allowance for doubtful receivables to cover the Company’s estimate of credit losses associated with accounts receivable.

The Company, for quality and pricing reasons, purchases its paper, cotton and yarn products from a limited number of suppliers. To maintain its high standard of color control associated with its apparel products, the Company purchases its dyeing chemicals from limited sources. While other sources may be available to the Company to purchase these products, they may not be available at the cost or at the quality the Company has come to expect.

For the purposes of the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows, the Company considers cash to include cash on hand and in bank accounts. The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) insures accounts up to $250,000. At May 31, 2015, cash balances included $15.0 million that was not federally insured because it represented amounts in individual accounts above the federally insured limit for each such account. This at-risk amount is subject to fluctuation on a daily basis. While management does not believe there is significant risk with respect to such deposits, we cannot be assured that we will not experience losses on our deposits. At May 31, 2015, the Company had $1.0 million in Canadian bank accounts and $1.5 million in Mexican bank accounts.

14. Subsequent Events

On June 19, 2015, the Board of Directors of Ennis, Inc. declared a 17  ¹⁄₂ cents per share quarterly dividend to be payable on August 7, 2015 to shareholders of record on July 10, 2015.

Item 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Overview

Ennis, Inc. (formerly Ennis Business Forms, Inc.) was organized under the laws of Texas in 1909. Ennis, Inc. and its subsidiaries print and manufacture a broad line of business forms and other business products (the “Print Segment”) and also manufacture a line of activewear (the “Apparel Segment”) for distribution throughout North America. The Print Segment distributes business products and forms throughout the United States primarily through independent dealers. This distributor channel encompasses independent print distributors, commercial printers, direct mail, fulfillment companies, payroll and accounts payable software companies, and advertising agencies, among others. We also sell products to many of our competitors to satisfy their customer’s needs. The Apparel Segment produces and sells activewear, including T-shirts, fleece goods, and other wearables. Distribution of our activewear throughout the United States, Canada and Mexico is primarily through sales representatives. The distributor channel encompasses activewear wholesalers and screen printers. We offer a great selection of high-quality activewear apparel with a wide variety of styles and colors in sizes ranging from toddler to 6XL. The apparel line features a wide variety of tees and fleece.

On December 31, 2014, we completed the acquisition of the stock of Kay Toledo Tag and Special Service Partners and their related entities (collectively “Kay Toledo”) for $16.2 million cash, in a stock purchase transaction. An additional $1.0 million is available to be paid over the next 3 years under an earn-out provision if certain financial metrics are achieved. Kay Toledo has locations in Toledo, Ohio and Neenah, Wisconsin through Special Service Partners. Experts in digital printing and customer short-run printing, Kay Toledo produces tags, labels, tickets and commercial printing. Kay Toledo generated approximately $25.0 million in sales for the twelve month period ended December 31, 2014 and will continue to operate under its respective brand names.

On October 3, 2014, we acquired the assets of Hoosier Data Forms for $0.2 million in cash plus the assumption of certain trade payables. Management considers this acquisition immaterial and has omitted further discussion.

ENNIS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

FORM 10-Q

FOR THE PERIOD ENDED MAY 31, 2015

On June 16, 2014, we acquired the assets of Sovereign Business Forms, and its related entities, TRI-C Business Forms, Inc., Falcon Business Forms, Inc., Forms Manufacturers, Inc., Mutual Graphics, Inc., and Curtis Business Forms, Inc. (collectively “Sovereign”) for $10.6 million in cash plus the assumption of certain trade liabilities. In addition, if certain financial metrics are met, an additional $1.0 million is available to be paid over the next 4 years under an earn-out provision. The cash portion of the purchase price was funded by borrowing under our line of credit facility. Sovereign produces snap sets, continuous forms and checks, laser forms, cut sheet forms and checks, and imprinted envelopes. Sovereign generated approximately $27.1 million in sales for the twelve month period ended December 31, 2013 and will continue to operate under its respective brand names.

Business Segment Overview

Our management believes we are the largest provider of business forms, pressure-seal forms, labels, tags, envelopes, and presentation folders to independent distributors in the United States and are also a significant provider of blank T-shirts in North America to the activewear market. We operate in two reportable segments: Print and Apparel. For additional financial information concerning segment reporting, please see Note 12 of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements beginning on page 18.

Print Segment

The Print Segment, which represented 64% of our consolidated net sales for the three months ended May 31, 2015, is in the business of manufacturing, designing and selling business forms and other printed business products primarily to distributors located in the United States. The Print Segment operates 58 manufacturing plants throughout the United States in 22 strategically located states. Approximately 97% of the business products manufactured by the Print Segment are custom and semi-custom products, constructed in a wide variety of sizes, colors, number of parts and quantities on an individual job basis depending upon the customers’ specifications.

The products sold include snap sets, continuous forms, laser cut sheets, tags, labels, envelopes, integrated products, jumbo rolls and pressure sensitive products in short, medium and long runs under the following labels: Ennis^®, Royal Business Forms^®, Block Graphics^®, Specialized Printed Forms^®, 360º Custom Labels^SM, ColorWorx^®, Enfusion^®, Uncompromised Check Solutions^®, VersaSeal^®, Witt Printing^®, B&D Litho^®, Genforms^®, PrintGraphics^SM, Calibrated Forms^®, PrintXcel^TM, Printegra^®, Curtis Business Forms^SM, Falcon Business Forms^SM, Forms Manufacturers^SM, Mutual Graphics^SM and TRI-C Business Forms^SM. The Print Segment also sells the Adams McClure^® brand (which provides Point of Purchase advertising for large franchise and fast food chains as well as kitting and fulfillment); the Admore^® and Folder Express^® brands (which provide presentation folders and document folders); Ennis Tag & Label^SM (which provides custom printed high performance labels and custom and stock tags); Atlas Tag & Label^®, Kay Toledo Tag^SM and Special Service Partners^SM (SSP) (which provides custom and stock tags and labels); Trade Envelopes^®, Block Graphics^®, Wisco^® and National Imprint Corporation^® (which provide custom and imprinted envelopes) and Northstar^® and General Financial Supply^® (which provide financial and security documents).

The Print Segment sells predominantly through printers and independent distributors as well as to many of our competitors. Northstar also sells direct to a small number of customers, generally large banking organizations (where a distributor is not acceptable or available to the end-user), as does Adams McClure, where sales are generally through advertising agencies.

The printing industry generally sells its products either through sales made predominantly to end users, a market dominated by a few large manufacturers, such as R.R. Donnelley, Staples, Standard Register, and Cenveo, or, like the Company, through a variety of independent distributors and distributor groups. While it is not possible, because of the lack of adequate public statistical information, to determine the Company’s share of the total business products market, management believes the Company is the largest producer of business forms, pressure-seal forms, labels, tags, envelopes, and presentation folders in the United States distributing primarily through independent dealers.

There are a number of competitors that operate in this segment, ranging in size from single employee-owner operations to multi-plant organizations. We believe our strategic locations and buying power permit us to compete on a favorable basis within the distributor market on competitive factors, such as service, quality, and price.

ENNIS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

FORM 10-Q

FOR THE PERIOD ENDED MAY 31, 2015

Distribution of business forms and other business products throughout the United States is primarily done through independent dealers, including business forms distributors, resellers, direct mail, commercial printers, payroll and accounts payable software companies, and advertising agencies.

Raw materials of the Print Segment principally consist of a wide variety of weights, widths, colors, sizes, and qualities of paper for business products purchased from generally one major supplier at favorable prices based on the volume of business.

Business products usage in the printing industry is generally not seasonal. General economic conditions and contraction of the traditional business forms industry are the predominant factor in quarterly volume fluctuations.

Our Print Business Challenges - In our Print Segment, we are engaged in an industry undergoing significant changes. Technology advances have made electronic distribution of documents, internet hosting, digital printing and print-on-demand valid, cost-effective alternatives to traditional custom printed documents and customer communications. We face highly competitive conditions in an already over-supplied, price-competitive industry. Our challenges in the Print Segment of our business include the following:

Transformation of our portfolio of products – While traditional business documents are essential in order to conduct business, many are being replaced or devalued with advances in digital technologies, causing steady declines in demand for a portion of our current product line. Transforming our product offerings in order to continue to provide innovative, valuable solutions to our customers on a proactive basis will require us to make investments in new and existing technology and to develop key strategic business relationships, such as print-on-demand services and product offerings that assist customers in their transition to digital business environments. In addition, we will continue to look for new market opportunities and niches, such as the addition of our envelope offerings, tag offerings, folder offerings, healthcare wristbands, secure document solutions, innovative in-mold label offerings and long-run integrated products with high color web printing, which provide us with an opportunity for growth and differentiate us from our competition.

Excess production capacity and price competition within our industry – Paper mills continue to adjust production capacity through downtime and closures to attempt to keep supply in line with demand. Due to the limited number of paper mills, paper prices have been and are expected to remain fairly volatile. We have generally been able to pass through increased paper costs, although this can often take several quarters due to the custom nature of our products and/or contractual relationships with some of our customers. We will continue to focus our efforts on effectively managing and controlling our product costs to minimize these effects on our operational results, primarily through the use of forecasting, production and costing models.

Continued economic uncertainties and weather related issues – In recent years, economic uncertainties and unusual weather-related issues during the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2014 and fiscal year 2015 caused our sales to be less than forecasted. As a result, we continue to focus on customer retention, expanding our growth targeted products and continuing to develop new market niches. In addition, we continue to look for opportunities to expand our revenue base through justifiable acquisitions.

Apparel Segment

The Apparel Segment represented 36% of our consolidated net sales for the three months ended May 31, 2015, and operates under the name of Alstyle Apparel (“Alstyle”). Alstyle markets high quality knitted activewear (including T-shirts, tank tops, and fleece) across all market segments. The main products of Alstyle are standardized shirts manufactured in a variety of sizes and colors. Approximately 98% of Alstyle’s revenues are derived from T-shirt sales and approximately 90% of its sales are domestic. Alstyle’s branded product lines are sold mainly under the AAA^®, Alstyle Apparel and Activewear^®, and Murina^® brands.

Alstyle’s primary manufacturing operations are located in an owned manufacturing facility located in Agua Prieta, Mexico. Alstyle has three cut and sew facilities in Mexico (Agua Prieta, Ensenada and Hermosillo). In addition to its owned cut and sew facilities, Alstyle may also use outsourced manufacturers from time to time to supplement a portion of its cut and sew needs. After sewing and packaging is completed, the product is shipped to one of Alstyle’s nine distribution centers located across the United States, Canada, and Mexico.

Alstyle utilizes a customer-focused internal sales team comprised of twenty-four sales representatives assigned to specific geographic territories in the United States, Canada, and Mexico. Sales representatives are assigned performance objectives for their respective territories and are provided financial incentives for achievement of their target objectives. Sales representatives are responsible for developing business with large accounts and spend a majority of their time in the field.

Alstyle employs a staff of customer service representatives that handle call-in orders from smaller customers. Sales personnel sell directly to Alstyle’s customer base, which consists primarily of screen printers, embellishers, retailers, and mass marketers.

A majority of Alstyle’s sales continue to be branded products, with the remainder being customers’ private label products. Generally, sales to screen printers and mass marketers are driven by price and the availability of products, which directly impacts our inventory level requirements. Sales in the private label business are characterized by higher customer loyalty. As such, the Company increased its sales emphasis in this area in fiscal 2015 and is continuing this effort in fiscal 2016.

Alstyle’s most popular styles are produced based on demand management forecasts to service at-once business and to level production schedules. Alstyle offers same-day shipping and uses third-party carriers to ship products to its customers.

Alstyle’s sales are seasonal, with sales in the first and second fiscal quarters generally being the highest. The apparel industry is characterized by rapid shifts in fashion, consumer demand and competitive pressures, resulting in both price and demand volatility. However, the imprinted activewear market to which Alstyle sells is generally “event” driven. Blank T-shirts can be thought of as “walking billboards” promoting movies, concerts, sports teams, and “image” brands. Still, the demand for any particular product varies from time to time based largely upon changes in consumer preferences and general economic conditions affecting the apparel industry. Over the years, the customer base has moved from media-centric products to more fashion-oriented products.

The apparel industry is comprised of numerous companies who manufacture and sell a wide range of products. Alstyle is primarily involved in the activewear market and produces T-shirts, fleece, blended and other fashion basic products and outsources some products from time-to-time from other countries like China, Pakistan, Central America and other foreign sources to sell to its customers through its sales representatives. Alstyle competes with many branded and private label manufacturers of knit apparel in the United States, Canada, and Mexico, some of which are larger in size and have greater financial resources than Alstyle. Alstyle competes on the basis of price, quality, service, and delivery. Alstyle’s strategy is to provide the best value to its customers by delivering a consistent, high-quality product at a competitive price, not necessarily the lowest price. Alstyle’s competitive disadvantage is its size in relation to its major competitors. Also, its brand name, Alstyle Apparel, is not as well known as the brand names of its largest competitors, such as Gildan, Hanes, and Fruit of the Loom. While it is not possible to calculate precisely because of the lack of adequate public statistical information, management believes that Alstyle is one of the top providers of blank T-shirts in North America.

Raw materials of the Apparel Segment principally consist of cotton and polyester yarn purchased from a number of major suppliers at prevailing market prices, although we purchased 46% of our cotton and yarn during the current period from one supplier.

Our Apparel Business Challenges - In our apparel segment industry, our market niche is highly competitive and commodity driven. In the past, the domestic apparel industry was generally dominated by a limited number of companies. However, due to changes in regulations and trade agreements in the last few years, this industry has become more globalized and our core competition has now extended to other parts of the world, particularly Asia and Central America. While the domestic economic environment has improved somewhat in the last few years which has led to increased demand, overall lower-end commodity apparel demand remains rather lethargic. Globalization has led to increased pricing pressures and direct importation by many screen-printers and big-box suppliers products that were once sourced domestically. New trade agreements like the recent agreement between Canada and Honduras, and currently being negotiated Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP), Trans-Atlantic Trade Investment Partnership (TTIP) and Trade in Services Agreement (TISA), could have significant impacts on domestic manufacturers. Foreign producers often have significant labor and other costs advantages. In the past few

23

ENNIS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

FORM 10-Q

FOR THE PERIOD ENDED MAY 31, 2015

years, domestic quota restrictions were eliminated for basically all foreign countries, which significantly impacted domestic apparel producers. While import duties remain in place for these foreign countries, import protection afforded to domestic apparel producers has been, and is likely to remain, subject to considerable political considerations. Given the number of these foreign producers, any further elimination of import protections that protect domestic apparel producers, especially like TPP, could potentially materially adversely affect Alstyle’s business.

In order to find their niche in a highly competitive and globalized environment, some of our customers and their customers have moved to alternative fabrics to differentiate themselves. What was once a basic commodity market where the printed media was more the focus, has now morphed into a more fabric-fashion market, where the fabric is seen to be as much of a selling point as the printed media. While some smaller garments producers are able to change quickly as market demand changes on fabrics and colors, longer-run manufactures like Alstyle are not able to adjust as easily. Alstyle has been and continues to work diligently on adapting/modifying their manufacturing processes so as to be able to efficiently and cost effectively handle such changes in fabrics and fashions. However, such changes do not come without inherent risks and potentially increased costs during the modification and learning curve process.

The unusual harsh domestic winter weather conditions at the end of fiscal years 2014 and 2015, negatively impacted the already weak retail landscape, and contributed to the softness in our Apparel sales during these time periods. While we do believe the market improved last fiscal year overall, the overall domestic retail environment continues to be extremely competitive and challenging from both a volume and pricing perspective. Globalization has become, and is expected to continue to be, an issue for American/NAFTA manufacturers, especially if agreements like TPP are enacted.

Cotton prices and other input costs – Cotton is the single largest input cost in the cost of a T-shirt. As a result, our business may be affected significantly by dramatic movements in cotton prices. During the last three years plus, cotton pricing has been extremely volatile, increasing to historical highs, and falling back of late to levels closer to historical averages. The cost incurred for materials (i.e., yarn, thread, etc.) is capitalized into inventory and impacts the Company’s operating results as inventory is sold. This could take six months or longer after the materials are purchased, depending on inventory turns. Consequently, fluctuations in cotton costs can significantly impact the Company’s operational results for many quarters, especially given the current market’s inelasticity to increases in selling prices. In addition, other input costs (i.e., dye and other chemicals cost, etc.) have started to increase over comparable periods as well As a result, any such fluctuation in input costs can be expected to impact our reported margins. Due to cotton prices receding to more historical averages over the past six months, and given our current inventory position, we expect to start realizing the benefit of lower cotton pricing in the coming quarters. This will likely translate into improving margins, unless competitive market pricing pressures negate the benefit of these lower costs.

Continued global economic uncertainties – The T-shirt marketplace is now much more globalized, and such globalization will continue as tariff restrictions are lifted and new trade agreements are entered into with other countries. Therefore, we are impacted by not only the volatility on our domestic economic climate, but the volatility in the international economic climate as well. While the domestic climate and economic recovery have strengthened, the recovery has not been as broad-based as recoveries in the past. Also, international markets of late have started to show increased volatility, which led to considerable strengthening of the dollar against other currencies. This tends to increase pressure on domestic manufacturers, due to lower demand, higher price of their products internationally and increased competition of foreign manufacturers. During fiscal years 2013, 2014 and 2015, the marketplace was extremely competitive. Manufacturers continued to lower prices as they tried to maintain certain volume levels/market share. Due to these challenging times, we had to take an impairment charge to the value of our apparel assets on several occasions. We see a similar selling environment this fiscal year, as competitors continue to try to maintain their market share. We recently introduced new sales programs and entered into new sales channels, which we feel should allow us to grow our revenue and hopefully improve our overall operating results. We believe to justify participation in the apparel industry, we need to develop a product mix or industry position capable of sustaining adequate pricing mechanisms to generate an appropriate return to our shareholders. Although challenging given current industry dynamics, those efforts have started. We feel we are in a better position today than in years past to deal with these challenges. However, if our new sales programs or channels are not successful or if discounting in the marketplace is deeper than expected, our operating results may be negatively impacted, requiring that we take further impairment charges in the future.

Three months ended May 31, 2015 compared to three months ended May 31, 2014

Net Sales. Our consolidated net sales were $150.6 million for the quarter ended May 31, 2015, compared to $141.2 million for same quarter last year, or an increase of 6.7%. Print sales increased by 9.5% on a comparable quarter basis, from $88.4 million to $96.8 million and our apparel sales increased from $52.8 million to $53.8 million, or 1.9%.

Cost of Goods Sold. Our manufacturing costs increased by $7.2 million from $105.8 million for the three months ended May 31, 2014 to $113.0 million for the three months ended May 31, 2015, or 6.8%. Our consolidated gross profit margin (“margin”) decreased slightly from 25.1% to 24.9% for the quarter ended May 31, 2014 and May 31, 2015, respectively. Our print margin increased from 30.5% to 31.0% on a comparable quarter, an increase of 50 basis points, due to continued operational improvements at our recent acquisitions, while our Apparel margin decreased on a comparable quarter basis from 16.0% to 14.1% due to higher start-up costs associated with the new strategic sales programs we have initiated.

Selling, general and administrative expense. For the three months ended May 31, 2015, our selling, general and administrative expenses were $22.7 million, or 15.0% of sales, compared to $21.8 million, or 15.4% of sales for the three months ended May 31, 2014. Our selling, general and administrative expenses continue to improve as we further integrate our print acquisitions into our operating systems/environment.

Gain from disposal of assets. The gain of $2,000 during the current quarter and $1,000 during the same quarter last year related primarily to the sale of unused manufacturing equipment.

Income from operations. Our income from operations for the three months ended May 31, 2015 was $14.9 million or 9.9% of sales, as compared to $13.6 million, or 9.7% of sales for the three months ended May 31, 2014. The increase in our operational earnings related primarily to the reduction in our selling, general and administrative expenses during the quarter.

Other income and expense. Interest expense remained level at $0.5 million for the three months ended May 31, 2014 and May 31, 2015. The increase in our other income and expense during the quarter related to a $0.2 million foreign currency gain compared to a $0.3 million foreign currency loss for the same quarter last year.

Provision for income taxes. Our effective tax rate remained level at 37.0% for the three months ended May 31, 2014 and 2015.

Net earnings. Due to the above factors, our net earnings for the three months ended May 31, 2015 were $9.2 million, or 6.1% of sales, as compared to $8.0 million, or 5.7% of sales for the three months ended May 31, 2014. Our basic and diluted earnings per share were $0.36 per share for the three months ended May 31, 2015, as compared to $0.31 per share for the three months ended May 31, 2014.

Segment Operating Results

	Three months ended May 31,

Print	$	96,769	$	88,384
Apparel		53,807		52,802
Total	$	150,576	$	141,186

Print Segment. Our net print sales, which represented 64% of our consolidated sales for the three months ended May 31, 2015, were approximately $96.8 million compared to $88.4 million for the three months ended May 31, 2014, an increase of $8.4 million or 9.5%. Our recent print acquisitions impacted our print sales during the quarter by $12.4 million. These increases were offset by sales declines at our other print locations of 4.5% for the quarter due to normal print attrition and general economic environment.

Apparel Segment. Our net apparel sales, which represented 36% of our consolidated sales for the three months ended May 31, 2015, were approximately $53.8 million compared to $52.8 million for the three months May 31, 2014, an increase of $1.0 million, or 1.9% for the quarter. For the quarter our volume was down 3.4% and our selling price was up 5.3% in comparison to the same quarter last fiscal year, both primarily due to the transition to our new sales directives. Overall our apparel sales continue to be impacted by a rather anemic domestic retail environment, competitor’s pricing pressures, and continued international competition due to relaxed import restrictions. As mentioned earlier, we have recently introduced new sales programs and entered into new sales channels which we hope will allow us to grow our top-line revenue and improve our overall operating results. However, during the current quarter and over the next several quarters we would expect as we transition that we will experience higher comparable manufacturing costs as we modify/adapt our manufacturing processes and train our employees.

	Three months ended May 31,
Gross Profit by Segment (in thousands)	2015		2014
Print	$	29,964	$	26,951
Apparel		7,580		8,437
Total	$	37,544	$	35,388

Print Segment. Our print gross profit margin for the three months ended May 31, 2015 was $30.0 million as compared to $27.0 million for the three months ended May 31, 2014. For the quarter, print margin increased from 30.5% to 31.0% compared to the same quarter last year. This is due primarily to our continued elimination of redundant costs associated with prior year acquisitions as we convert them onto our computer systems and into our production processes.

Apparel Segment. Our apparel gross profit margin for the three months ended May 31, 2015 was $7.6 million as compared to $8.4 million for the three months ended May 31, 2014. As a percent of sales, our apparel margin was 14.1% and 16.0% for the three months ended May 31, 2015 and May 31, 2014, respectively. Our apparel margin continues to be negatively impacted by higher input costs, and lower manufacturing efficiencies due to lower production volumes and the introduction of new manufactured products, where the production efficiencies are not at the same level as mature products, relating to the new sales initiatives.

	Three months ended May 31,
Profit by Segment (in thousands)	2015		2014

Less corporate expenses		4,308		3,909
Earnings before income taxes	$	14,558	$	12,749

Print Segment. Our print profit for the three months ended May 31, 2015 was $17.1 million as compared to $15.5 million for the three months ended May 31, 2014. As a percent of sales, our print profits increased from 17.5% to 17.7% for the comparable quarter last year and increased from 16.1% to 17.7% for sequential quarters due to improving operational performance of our prior year acquisitions.

Apparel Segment. Our apparel profit for the three months ended May 31, 2015 was $1.7 million as compared to $1.2 million for the three months ended May 31, 2014, an increase of $0.5 million, or 41%. As a percent of sales, our apparel profit increased from 2.2% to 3.2% of sales for the three months ended May 31, 2014 and May 31, 2015, respectively. While our Apparel Segment continues to be impacted by a weak domestic retail environment, marketplace pricing pressures, and increased international competition due to relaxed import restrictions, we are experiencing some positive impacts associated with our new sales initiatives. Whether these will be long-lasting or not is still to be seen.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We rely on our cash flows generated from operations and the borrowing capacity under our Facility to meet cash requirements of our business. The primary cash requirements of our business are payments to vendors in the normal course of business, capital expenditures, debt repayments and related interest payments, contributions to our pension plan and the payment of dividends to our shareholders. We expect to generate sufficient cash flows from operations supplemented by our Facility as required to cover our operating and capital requirements for the foreseeable future.

Working Capital	$	163,352	$	176,295
Cash	$	19,047	$	15,346

Working Capital. Our working capital decreased approximately $12.9 million or 7.3%, from $176.3 million at February 28, 2015 to $163.4 million at May 31, 2015. Our current ratio, calculated by dividing our current assets by our current liabilities, decreased from 5.4 to 1.0 at February 28, 2015 to 5.0 to 1.0 at May 31 2015. The decrease in both our working capital and current ratio related primarily to the decrease in our apparel inventory. The Company used the cash generated from this reduction to pay down long-term debt by $21.0 million during the quarter.

Cash flows from operating activities. Cash provided by operating activities increased by $17.4 million from $13.3 million for the three months ended May 31, 2014 to $30.7 million for the three months ended May 31, 2015. Our increased operational cash flows in comparison to the comparable period last year was primarily due to the impact of apparel inventory on our operating cash. Last year our apparel inventory used approximately $0.6 million in cash, while this year it provided $12.5 million due to a decrease in production. In addition, our prepaid expenses during the current period provided approximately $3.4 million more than the comparable period last year.

Cash flows from investing activities. Cash used in investing activities increased $0.9 million from $0.3 million to $1.2 million for the three months ended May 31, 2014 and 2015, respectively. This was primarily due to $0.9 million more cash used for capital expenditures.

Cash flows from financing activities. We used $20.1 million more in cash this period than during the same period last year. We used $21.0 million in cash this year to pay down our debt and last year we used $0.9 million to repurchase our common stock under our stock repurchase program. We did not repurchase any shares of our common stock the first quarter of this year.

Credit Facility. On September 19, 2013, we entered into the Third Amendment and Consent to Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Agreement”) with a syndicate of lenders led by Bank of America, N.A. (the “Facility”). The Amendment amends and restates the financial covenant relating to Minimum Tangible Net Worth. The amended covenant requires a Minimum Tangible Net Worth of $100.0 million, with step-ups equal to 25% of consolidated net income. The Facility provides us access to $150.0 million in revolving credit, which we may increase to $200.0 million in certain circumstances, and matures on August 18, 2016. The Facility bears interest at the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) plus a spread ranging from 1.0% to 2.25% (LIBOR + 1.5% or 1.75% at May 31, 2015 and 1.65% at May 31, 2014), depending on our ratio of total funded debt to the sum of net earnings plus interest, tax, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”). As of May 31, 2015, we had $85.5 million of borrowings under the revolving credit line and $2.8 million outstanding under standby letters of credit arrangements, leaving us availability of approximately $61.7 million. The Facility contains financial covenants, including restrictions on capital expenditures, acquisitions, asset dispositions, and additional debt, as well as other customary covenants, such as our minimum tangible equity level and total funded debt to EBITDA ratio. We were in compliance with all these covenants as of May 31, 2015. The Facility is secured by substantially all of our domestic assets as well as all capital securities of each of the Company’s U.S. subsidiaries and 65% of all capital securities of each of the Company’s direct foreign subsidiaries.

It is anticipated that the available line of credit is sufficient to cover working capital requirements for the foreseeable future, should it be required.

Pension Plan – We are required to make contributions to our Pension Plan. These contributions are required under the minimum funding requirements of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (“ERISA”). Due to the enactment of the Highway and Transportation Funding Act (HAFTA) in August 2014, which effectively raises the discount rates mandated for determining the value of a plan’s benefit liability and annual cost of accruals, our minimum required contribution to the Pension Plan is zero for the Pension Plan year ending February 29, 2016. However, we expect to make a cash contribution to the Pension Plan of between $2.0 million and $3.0 million during fiscal year 2016. We made contributions of $3.0 million to our Pension Plan during fiscal 2015. As our Pension Plan assets are invested in marketable securities, fluctuations in market values could potentially impact our funding status, associated liabilities recorded and future required minimum contributions. At May 31, 2015, we had an unfunded pension liability recorded on our balance sheet of $10.4 million.

Inventories – We believe our inventory levels are sufficient to satisfy our customer demands and we anticipate having adequate sources of raw materials to meet future business requirements. We have long-term contracts in effect with paper and yarn suppliers that govern prices, but do not require minimum purchase commitments. Certain of our rebate programs do, however, require minimum purchase volumes. Management anticipates meeting the required volumes.

Capital Expenditures – We expect our capital requirements for our current fiscal year, exclusive of capital required for possible acquisitions, will be within our historical levels of between $4.0 million and $5.0 million. To date we have spent approximately $1.2 million on capital expenditures. We expect to fund these expenditures through existing cash flows.

Contractual Obligations & Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements – There have been no significant changes in our contractual obligations since February 28, 2015 that have, or are reasonably likely to have, a material impact on our results of operations or financial condition. We had no off-balance sheet arrangements in place as of May 31, 2015.

Item 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Market Risk

Interest Rates

We are exposed to interest rate risk on short-term and long-term financial instruments carrying variable interest rates. We may from time to time utilize interest rate swaps to manage overall borrowing costs and reduce exposure to adverse fluctuations in interest rates. We do not use derivative instruments for trading purposes. Our variable rate financial instruments, consisting of the outstanding credit facility, totaled $85.5 million at May 31, 2015. The annual impact on our results of operations of a one-point interest rate change on the outstanding balance of the variable rate financial instruments as of May 31, 2015 would be approximately $0.9 million.

Foreign Exchange

We have global operations and thus make investments and enter into transactions in various foreign currencies. The value of our consolidated assets and liabilities located outside the United States (translated at period end exchange rates) and income and expenses (translated using average rates prevailing during the period), generally denominated in Pesos and Canadian Dollars, are affected by the translation into our reporting currency (the U.S. Dollar). Such translation adjustments are reported as a separate component of consolidated statements of comprehensive income. In future periods, foreign exchange rate fluctuations could have an increased impact on our reported results of operations. A sensitivity analysis to changes in the value of the U.S. dollar on foreign currency denominated investments and monetary assets and liabilities indicated that if the U.S. dollar uniformly strengthened by 10% against all currency exposures of the Company at May 31, 2015, the decrease in fair value and results of operations would be approximately $0.3 million.

This market risk discussion contains forward-looking statements. Actual results may differ materially from this discussion based upon general market conditions and changes in domestic and global financial markets.

Item 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures. A review and evaluation were carried out under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our “disclosure controls and procedures” (as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, pursuant to Exchange Act Rule 13a-15. Based upon that review and evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures as of May 31, 2015 are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports filed or submitted by us under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms and include controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in such reports is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive and financial officers as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Due to the inherent limitations of control systems, not all misstatements may be detected. Those inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty and that breakdowns can occur because of simple errors or mistakes. Additionally, controls could be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons or by collusion of two or more people. Our controls and procedures can only provide reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the above objectives have been met.

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation required by paragraph (d) of Exchange Act Rule 13a-15 that occurred during our fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting ended May 31, 2015.

Inventories

3. Inventories

The Company uses the lower of last-in, first-out (LIFO) cost or market to value certain of its business forms inventories and the lower of first-in, first-out (FIFO) cost or market to value its remaining forms and apparel inventories. The Company regularly reviews inventories on hand, using specific aging categories, and writes down the carrying value of its inventories for excess and potentially obsolete inventories based on historical usage and estimated future usage. In assessing the ultimate realization of its inventories, the Company is required to make judgments as to future demand requirements. As actual future demand or market conditions may vary from those projected by the Company, adjustments to inventories may be required.

The following table summarizes the components of inventories at the different stages of production as of the dates indicated (in thousands):

Receivables [Abstract]

Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Receivables

2. Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Receivables

Accounts receivable are reduced by an allowance for an estimate of amounts that are uncollectible. Substantially all of the Company’s receivables are due from customers in North America. The Company extends credit to its customers based upon its evaluation of the following factors: (i) the customer’s financial condition, (ii) the amount of credit the customer requests, and (iii) the customer’s actual payment history (which includes disputed invoice resolution). The Company does not typically require its customers to post a deposit or supply collateral. The Company’s allowance for doubtful receivables is based on an analysis that estimates the amount of its total customer receivable balance that is not collectible. This analysis includes assessing a default probability to customers’ receivable balances, which is influenced by several factors including (i) current market conditions, (ii) periodic review of customer credit worthiness, and (iii) review of customer receivable aging and payment trends.

The Company writes off accounts receivable when they become uncollectible, and payments subsequently received on such receivables are credited to the allowance in the period the payment is received. Credit losses from continuing operations have consistently been within management’s expectations.

The following table presents the activity in the Company’s allowance for doubtful receivables (in thousands):

1. Significant Accounting Policies and General Matters

Basis of Presentation

These unaudited consolidated financial statements of Ennis, Inc. and its subsidiaries (collectively referred to as the “Company,” “Registrant,” “Ennis,” or “we,” “us,” or “our”) for the period ended May 31, 2015 have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial reporting. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended February 28, 2015, from which the accompanying consolidated balance sheet at February 28, 2015 was derived. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation of the interim financial information have been included and are of a normal recurring nature. In preparing the financial statements, the Company is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the disclosure and reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The Company evaluates these estimates and judgments on an ongoing basis, including those related to bad debts, inventory valuations, property, plant and equipment, intangible assets, pension plan, accrued liabilities, and income taxes. The Company bases estimates and judgments on historical experience and on various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. The results of operations for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations for a full year.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)” (“ASU No. 2014-09”), which requires an entity to recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which it expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. ASU No. 2014-09 supersedes most existing revenue recognition guidance in U.S. GAAP. This guidance is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within that reporting period, and early application is not permitted. The guidance permits the use of either the retrospective or cumulative effect transition method. The Company is evaluating the effect that ASU No. 2014-09 will have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

Earnings Per Share [Abstract]

Earnings per Share

11. Earnings per Share

Basic earnings per share have been computed by dividing net earnings by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the applicable period. Diluted earnings per share reflect the potential dilution that could occur if stock options or other contracts to issue common shares were exercised or converted into common stock.

For the three months ended May 31, 2015 and May 31, 2014, 320,094 and 296,668 shares, respectively, related to stock options were not included in the diluted earnings per share computation because their exercise price exceeded the average fair market value of the Company’s stock. The following table sets forth the computation for basic and diluted earnings per share for the periods indicated:

Segment Information and Geographic Information

12. Segment Information and Geographic Information

The Company operates in two segments–the Print Segment and the Apparel Segment.

The Print Segment, which represented 64% of the Company’s consolidated net sales for the three months ended May 31, 2015, is in the business of manufacturing, designing, and selling business forms and other printed business products primarily to distributors located in the United States. The Print Segment operates 58 manufacturing plants throughout the United States in 22 strategically located states. Approximately 97% of the business products manufactured by the Print Segment are custom and semi-custom products, constructed in a wide variety of sizes, colors, number of parts and quantities on an individual job basis depending upon the customers’ specifications.

The products sold include snap sets, continuous forms, laser cut sheets, tags, labels, envelopes, integrated products, jumbo rolls and pressure sensitive products in short, medium and long runs under the following labels: Ennis^®, Royal Business Forms^®, Block Graphics^®, Specialized Printed Forms^®, 360º Custom Labels^SM, ColorWorx^®, Enfusion^®, Uncompromised Check Solutions^®, VersaSeal^®, Witt Printing^®, B&D Litho^®, Genforms^®, PrintGraphics^SM, Calibrated Forms^®, PrintXcel^TM, Printegra^®, Curtis Business Forms^SM, Falcon Business Forms^SM, Forms Manufacturers^SM, Mutual Graphics^SM and TRI-C Business Forms^SM. The Print Segment also sells the Adams McClure^® brand (which provides Point of Purchase advertising for large franchise and fast food chains as well as kitting and fulfillment); the Admore^® and Folder Express^® brands (which provide presentation folders and document folders); Ennis Tag & Label^SM (which provides custom printer high performance labels and custom and stock tags); Atlas Tag & Label^®, Kay Toledo Tag^SM and Special Service Partners^SM (SSP) (which provides custom and stock tags and labels); Trade Envelopes^®, Block Graphics^®, Wisco^® and National Imprint Corporation^® (which provide custom and imprinted envelopes) and Northstar^® and General Financial Supply^® (which provide financial and security documents).

The Print Segment sells predominantly through private printers and independent distributors. Northstar also sells direct to a small number of customers. Northstar has continued its focus with large banking organizations on a direct basis (where a distributor is not acceptable or available to the end-user) and has acquired several of the top 25 banks in the United States as customers and is actively working on other large banks within the top 25 tier of banks in the United States. Adams McClure sales are generally provided through advertising agencies. Assets in this segment increased in 2015 primarily as a result of the Company’s acquisition of Sovereign Business Forms and Kay Toledo.

The Apparel Segment, which accounted for 36% of the Company’s consolidated net sales for the three months ended May 31, 2015, consists of Alstyle Apparel. This group is primarily engaged in the production and sale of activewear including T-shirts, fleece goods, and other wearables. Alstyle sales are seasonal, with sales in the first and second quarters generally being the highest. Substantially all of the Apparel Segment sales are to customers in the United States.

Corporate information is included to reconcile segment data to the consolidated financial statements and includes assets and expenses related to the Company’s corporate headquarters and other administrative costs.

Segment data for the three months ended May 31, 2015 and May 31, 2014 were as follows (in thousands):

Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

5. Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of net assets of acquired businesses and is not amortized. Goodwill and indefinite-lived intangibles are evaluated for impairment on an annual basis as of November 30 of each year, or more frequently if impairment indicators arise, using a fair-value-based test that compares the fair value of the asset to its carrying value. Goodwill and other intangible assets are tested for impairment at a reporting unit level, which the Company has determined is at the Print Segment and Apparel Segment level. The impairment test for goodwill uses a two-step approach. Step one compares the fair value of the reporting unit to which goodwill is assigned to its carrying amount. If the carrying amount exceeds its estimated value, a potential impairment is indicated and step two is performed. Step two compares the carrying amount of the reporting unit’s goodwill to its implied fair value. In calculating the implied fair value of reporting unit goodwill, the fair value of the reporting unit is allocated to all of the assets and liabilities, including unrecognized intangible assets of that reporting unit based on their fair values, similar to the allocation that occurs in a business combination. The excess of the fair value of a reporting unit over the amount assigned to its other assets and liabilities is the implied fair value of goodwill. If the carrying value of goodwill exceeds its implied fair value, an impairment charge is recognized in an amount equal to that excess. If the implied fair value of goodwill exceeds the carrying amount, goodwill is not impaired. The Company must make assumptions regarding estimated future cash flows and other factors to determine the fair value of the respective assets in assessing the recoverability of its goodwill and other intangibles. If these estimates or the related assumptions change, the Company may be required to record additional impairment charges relating to these assets in the future.

The cost of intangible assets is based on fair values at the date of acquisition. Intangible assets with determinable lives are amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful life (between 1 and 15 years). Trademarks and trade names with indefinite lives are evaluated for impairment on an annual basis, or more frequently if impairment indicators arise. The Company assesses the recoverability of its definite-lived intangible assets primarily based on its current and anticipated future undiscounted cash flows.

The carrying amount and accumulated amortization of the Company’s intangible assets at each balance sheet date are as follows (in thousands):

Risks and Uncertainties [Abstract]

Concentrations of Risk

13. Concentrations of Risk

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to a concentration of credit risk principally consist of cash and trade receivables. Cash is placed with high-credit quality financial institutions. The Company believes its credit risk with respect to trade receivables is limited due to industry and geographic diversification. As disclosed on the Consolidated Balance Sheets, the Company maintains an allowance for doubtful receivables to cover the Company’s estimate of credit losses associated with accounts receivable.

The Company, for quality and pricing reasons, purchases its paper, cotton and yarn products from a limited number of suppliers. To maintain its high standard of color control associated with its apparel products, the Company purchases its dyeing chemicals from limited sources. While other sources may be available to the Company to purchase these products, they may not be available at the cost or at the quality the Company has come to expect.

For the purposes of the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows, the Company considers cash to include cash on hand and in bank accounts. The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) insures accounts up to $250,000. At May 31, 2015, cash balances included $15.0 million that was not federally insured because it represented amounts in individual accounts above the federally insured limit for each such account. This at-risk amount is subject to fluctuation on a daily basis. While management does not believe there is significant risk with respect to such deposits, we cannot be assured that we will not experience losses on our deposits. At May 31, 2015, the Company had $1.0 million in Canadian bank accounts and $1.5 million in Mexican bank accounts.

10. Pension Plan

The Company and certain subsidiaries have a noncontributory defined benefit retirement plan (the “Pension Plan”), covering approximately 8% of aggregate employees. Benefits are based on years of service and the employee’s average compensation for the highest five compensation years preceding retirement or termination.

Pension expense is composed of the following components included in cost of goods sold and selling, general and administrative expenses in the Company’s consolidated statements of earnings (in thousands):

	Three months ended May 31,

Prior service cost		(21	)		(36	)
Unrecognized net loss		638			381

The Company is required to make contributions to the Pension Plan. These contributions are required under the minimum funding requirements of ERISA. Due to the enactment of the Highway and Transportation Act (HAFTA) in August 2014, plan sponsors can calculate the discount rate used to measure the Pension Plan liability using a 25-year average of interest rates plus or minus a corridor. The Company’s minimum required contribution to the Pension Plan is zero for the Pension Plan year ending February 29, 2016. However, the Company expects to make a cash contribution to the Pension Plan of between $2.0 million and $3.0 million during fiscal year 2016. The Company contributed $3.0 million to the Pension Plan during fiscal year 2015.

Basis of Presentation

These unaudited consolidated financial statements of Ennis, Inc. and its subsidiaries (collectively referred to as the “Company,” “Registrant,” “Ennis,” or “we,” “us,” or “our”) for the period ended May 31, 2015 have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial reporting. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended February 28, 2015, from which the accompanying consolidated balance sheet at February 28, 2015 was derived. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation of the interim financial information have been included and are of a normal recurring nature. In preparing the financial statements, the Company is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the disclosure and reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The Company evaluates these estimates and judgments on an ongoing basis, including those related to bad debts, inventory valuations, property, plant and equipment, intangible assets, pension plan, accrued liabilities, and income taxes. The Company bases estimates and judgments on historical experience and on various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. The results of operations for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations for a full year.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)” (“ASU No. 2014-09”), which requires an entity to recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which it expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. ASU No. 2014-09 supersedes most existing revenue recognition guidance in U.S. GAAP. This guidance is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within that reporting period, and early application is not permitted. The guidance permits the use of either the retrospective or cumulative effect transition method. The Company is evaluating the effect that ASU No. 2014-09 will have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
