CSAR) today announced that sales for the second quarter ended June&nbsp;30, 2007 were $235.6 million, a decrease of 10.3 percent compared to sales of $262.7 million for the same quarter in 2006. Included in the second quarter 2006 sales were $21.4
million related to the company&#146;s Rittman, OH and Sprague, CT coated recycled paperboard operations, both of which were exited in 2006. Loss from continuing operations for the second quarter 2007 was $2.3&nbsp;million, or $0.08 per share,
compared to loss from continuing operations of $15.7 million, or $0.55 per share for the same quarter last year. The second quarter 2007 and 2006 results included pretax restructuring and impairment costs of approximately $3.7 million and $15.8
million, or $0.08 and $0.34 per share, respectively. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The second quarter 2007 loss from continuing operations was impacted by noncash asset write-offs of
$1.0&nbsp;million, or $0.02 per share, related to the sale of our Mooresville, NC converting location and $0.7 million, or $0.02 per share, in severance and unemployment taxes. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT
FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Total paperboard controlled volume (Caraustar mill tons sold plus outside paperboard purchased) for the second quarter of 2007 decreased approximately 87.0&nbsp;thousand tons, or 26.7 percent, compared to the same
quarter last year. In the past year, as a part of the transformation plan to rationalize underperforming assets, the company exited the Sprague, CT and Rittman, OH mills, and closed the Lafayette, IN and Reading, PA mills. Those four mills, in
aggregate, sold 78.8&nbsp;thousand tons in the second quarter 2006. Excluding these mills, total paperboard controlled in the second quarter 2007 compared to prior year decreased 8.2&nbsp;thousand tons, or 3.3 percent versus an industry decline of
6.3 percent. The rationalization of ten converting facilities (two folding carton and eight tube and core) over the same time period also adversely impacted volume. Gypsum facing paper volume, including volume at the company&#146;s 50-percent owned
unconsolidated Premier Boxboard Limited, LLC (PBL) joint venture, declined 27.9 percent compared to the same quarter last year as the demand for wallboard continued to be soft. Offsetting this shortfall, production at the gypsum facing paper mills
exceeded prior year as the company leveraged its flexibility in producing other grades. Quarter-over-quarter, mill margins increased $16&nbsp;per ton as a fiber cost increase of $38 per ton was more than offset by higher selling prices of $43 per
ton and lower fuel and energy costs of $11 per ton. Tube and core margins remained relatively stable compared to the same period last year. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P>

in 2006. Loss from continuing operations for the six-month period ended June&nbsp;30, 2007 was $11.3 million, or $0.39 per share, compared to a gain from continuing operations of $65.8 million, or $2.30 per share for the same period last year.
Income from continuing operations for the first half of 2006 included a gain of $135.2 million on the sale of the company&#146;s 50-percent interest in its Standard Gypsum joint venture and a cost of $18.8 million associated with the redemption of
its senior subordinated notes. The six-month periods ended 2007 and 2006 results included pretax restructuring and impairment costs of approximately $9.5 million and $20.6 million, or $0.21 and $0.45 per share, respectively. </FONT></P> <P
STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Michael J. Keough, president and chief executive officer of Caraustar, commented, &#147;Caraustar&#146;s second quarter results improved considerably over first quarter
2007 and year-over-year. Additionally, our mill system operated at 96.6 percent of capacity versus 93.1&nbsp;percent in the first quarter 2007 and 96.0 percent in the second quarter 2006. We were able to sell out the entire capacity of our PBL joint
venture mill in the second quarter 2007, and the mill continues to run full with a product mix of approximately half facing paper and half containerboard. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman"
SIZE="2">During the quarter, we were able to achieve a high percentage of the original $50 per ton price increase announced in March, and energy costs were down $11 per ton versus the second quarter last year. Operating results, however, were
adversely impacted by company and industry volume shortfalls coupled with a $38 per ton increase in recovered fiber costs. Fiber costs decreased in April and May but began to climb again in June. We expect continued volatility in the cost of fiber
given the increased international consumption, primarily by China. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">&#147;Our transformation process continued as we further refined our business portfolio
through the sale of our Mooresville, NC converting facility, which produced games and picture frames. Our comprehensive initiative to reduce SG&amp;A, including the closure of underperforming assets, led to a $6.4 million reduction in costs versus
the second quarter last year. The percent of SG&amp;A to sales declined from 12.6 percent to 11.3 percent. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">&#147;As stated last quarter, we were able to
increase liquidity despite volume declines that led to lower operating results, and we expect to further improve liquidity in the third quarter. We remain committed to achieving overall improvements in volume, sales and cost reductions.&#148;

balance of $2.3 million compared to $1.0 million at December&nbsp;31, 2006. For the six month periods ended June&nbsp;30, 2007 and 2006, the company used $12.2 million and $3.6 million, respectively, of cash in operating activities. The increase in
cash used from operations versus 2006 was primarily due to lower operating results. Capital expenditures decreased year-to-date to $11.6 million in 2007 from $15.8 million in 2006. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT

may present similarly titled items determined with differing adjustments. Accordingly, this measure as presented should not be used to evaluate the Company&#146;s performance by comparison to any similarly titled measures presented by other
companies. The Company has included this non-GAAP financial measure because it uses this measure, and believes this measure is useful in evaluating the Company&#146;s ongoing comparable operating results, cash position and its ability to generate
cash. The tables above include a reconciliation of this non-GAAP financial measure with the most comparable GAAP measurement. Investors are strongly urged to review these reconciliations. In addition, the exclusion of certain adjustment items in the
calculation of these non-GAAP measures does not imply that such items are non-recurring, infrequent or unusual. The Company has experienced such items in prior periods, and may experience similar items in future periods. </FONT></TD></TR></TABLE>

SIZE="2">This morning Caraustar reported second quarter 2007 results. And we would like to add more context to the press release. As the press release stated, Caraustar reported a loss from continued operations of $2.3 million, or $0.08 per share.
During the quarter we had $0.12 of loss, due to restructuring and impairment costs, and severance costs associated with our transformation plan. The results from the second quarter 2007 improved both sequentially, and Q2 to Q2, against a challenging
market backdrop. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">I will discuss market forces and the impact on our business segments and then you will hear more from Ron and Bill, about the financials.
We seen less than stellar market demand for our products, but as the press release indicated, we had four fewer mills and ten fewer converting operations, and we have been able to more than maintain capacity utilization, as compared to the industry.
Due to market demand and our shutdowns, sales for Q2 versus Q2, were down 10.3%. Overall, ship tonnage was flat sequentially. Our tube and core segment improved 2.6% sequentially, but was still down 6.8%, Q2 to Q2. Overall industry demand for tubes
and cores have dropped off through the first half of the year. This is a mature business that does have some volatility. And our plant rationalizations, have probably added to our complexity. Our franchise, however, is a strong one, with a good
track record of profits. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">We are excited about three investments that are being made this year in our tube and core group. We have two high speed tube and
core winders, and a new PAB line, which is protective board, that will go into a location in Illinois, that will lower cost and provide innovative solutions to our customers. A folding carton group including our Tama, Iowa coated recycled box board
mill is performing well. Tama remains full, and always been a solid contributor to our system. Mill has raised its average ton shipped 12% in the past two years, with small capital projects, and strong market demand. Industry consolidation and
rationalizations in the CRB space, have provided for business with solid returns. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The folding carton space has also seen sizable consolidation over the
past two years, and will shake the industry for many years to come. With the consolidations we see Caraustar having an increasing presence over the months to come. Caraustar has transformed its own folding carton group, with fewer, but better
equipped carton plants around the country. Our nine plant carton group has a good mix of national, regional, and local accounts, and performing well. A new printing press in Charlotte and a Grand Rapids press which is currently being installed give
us state of the art printing, while lowering our overall cost structure. The housing pullback is fully understood, and not soon to abate, based on what we read and hear from customers. Gypsum facing shipments were off 28% Q2 to Q2, and 28 1/2% year
to date. That&#146;s the bad news. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Good news is that we were running both of our Gypsum facing mills full. 100% owned Sweetwater mill continues to
transition to a mill, that will run high quality two grades, and special Gypsum facing products. Sweetwater arguably, will be the lowest cost and widest tube and core machine in the country, and we expect to run up to 40,000-tons of tube and core
stock on the machine, this year. Sweetwater will continue to run safe A&#146;s MR which is a cost effective grade for mold, mildew and moisture resistant applications, along with many other specialty grades. PBL our joint venture mill in Indiana, is
sold out and we expect it to remain so through the balance of the year. We are running a mix of roughly 50% Gypsum and 50% container board. PBL model has changed somewhat by running less Gypsum facing, but marketing efforts that leverage the
flexibility to pay it off. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">We see price recovery this fall in the container board segment of ,right at $40 a ton. Special paper board products were down
20% from Q2 to Q2, as shown in the supplemental data, but backing out Sprague and Rittman, the shortfall was closer to 14%. Prior to the shortfall can be attributed to the soft housing demand. Requalifications required by the Lafayette mill shut,
and loss of internal tons, as a result of exiting the petition business. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">We have a number of new products in the space and we expect through strong
efforts, that the volume trend will improve, but it will take sometime. In the supplemental data you will see our mill average selling price is up $43 a ton, Q2 to Q2, and $33 a ton sequentially. There could be tail on the price recovery side, but
it&#146;s not a long one, as most of the recovery from the early spring fiber spikes, have been realized. Supplemental data shows that fiber costs increased $38 a ton Q2 to Q2, and $12 a ton sequentially. Energy costs were favorable $11 a ton Q2 to
Q2, and $6 a ton sequentially. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The rollout of price fiber and energy, shows margin improvement of $16 a ton Q2 to Q2, and $27 a ton sequentially. We tend
to see the fiber side as a seesaw. I will give you a few examples. If you just go to the yellow sheet, and take a look at a slice. Let&#146;s look at OCC, and in the southeast. If you go back in time, OCC went up $80 a ton, from December&nbsp;2 to
March&nbsp;3. So in 90 days, fiber OCC southeast spiked $80 a ton. And then in </FONT>

SIZE="2">Thanks, Mike. Good day, everybody. In the second quarter 2007, Caraustar reported a loss from continuing operations, of $2.3 million or $0.08 per share. This included restructuring and impairment costs of $3.7 million pre-tax, or $0.08 per
share. A non-cash write off associated with the exit of our Mooresville, North Carolina, converting facility, of a $1million pre-tax, or $0.02 per share, and $700,000 pre-tax or $0.02 per share in severance and unemployment taxes, related to the
transformation plan. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">As Mike mentioned in his opening remarks, Caraustar has been aggressively pursuing a strategic transformation plan. While we were
making significant progress, it does result in a lot of moving parts, that complicate comparisons with prior year. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">In the past year, Caraustar exited four
paper mills. Spray, Connecticut, Rittman, Ohio, Lafayette, Indiana, and Reading, Pennsylvania. Two folding carton facilities in Mentor, Ohio and York, Pennsylvania. And eight tube and core operations, in Amarillo, Texas, Vacaville, California,
Danville, Virginia, West Point, Virginia, Sequency, Louisiana Grand Rapids, Michigan, Mexico City, Mexico, and Leland, England. I will attempt to quantify the impact of these initiatives on our reported results, as I go along. </FONT></P> <P
STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Income from operations before restructuring and impairment costs in the second quarter of 2007 was $4.2 million, or $0.09 per share. Versus income in the first quarter
of 2006 of $5.4 million, or $0.12 per share. Unfavorable swing of $0.03. Favorable variances, and operating income in the first quarter 2007 versus last yea,r includes $7.4 million pre-tax or $0.16 per share in URB paperboard pricing. $4.2million
pre-tax, or $0.09 per share, in a $62 ton, increase in tube and core pricing. $600,000 or $0.01 per share, in improved performance at the Tama CRB mill. $500,000 or $0.01 per share, in stronger volume results in our recovered fiber operations, and
$66.4 million pre-tax or $0.14 per share in lower SG&amp;A. I will go into more detail on SG&amp;A in a little while. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Unfavorable variances in operating
income, include the previously mentioned $0.04 per share for the Mooresville non-cash write off, and severance and unemployment taxes related to restructuring. Other unfavorable variances include $5.2 million pre-tax or $0.11 per share, and $36 ton,
higher fiber costs. $5.8 million pre-tax or $0.13 per share, and 24,900 fewer tons of URB paperboard volume. $4.2&nbsp;million pre-tax or $0.09 per share. And $62 per ton higher tube and core paper board costs. $1.7million pre-tax or $0.04 per
share, and 9000 tons, of lower tube and core volume. And. $900,000 pre-tax or $0.02 per share, and foregone CRB gross profit, from the exit of the Sprague and Rittman mills. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT
FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Restructuring and impairment costs for $3.7 million pre-tax or $0.08 per share, in the first quarter 2007. Down $9.5million versus the same quarter last year. Of the $3.7 million, $1.6 million were cash charges,
associated with the closures mentioned previously. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Other income expense in the second quarter 2007 was a loss of $4.3 million, or $0.09 per share. Versus
a loss of $13.7 million in the second quarter 2006. The loss in 2006, included $10.3 million in costs associated with redemption of the senior subordinated notes last year. A favorable variance of $750,000 pre-tax or $0.02 per share and lower net
interest expense, from debt reduction, was more than offset by $1.7 million or $0.04 per share in lower earnings of PBL, which is recorded in the equity and unconsolidated&#151; equity and income of unconsolidated affiliates. That was driven by the
unfavorable mix. Less Gypsum facing paper, and more container board. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Income taxes in the second quarter of 2007 were $1.5 million or $0.05 per share, and
represent an effective rate of 39.9%. Our effective rate is beginning to approach our theoretical tax rate of 38%, as we work through extensive tax issues in the states, related to our transformation plan. Selling, general and administrative expense
in the second quarter of 2007 was $26.7 million, down $6.4&nbsp;million or minus 19.3%, versus prior year. $5 million of the reduction, was attributed to the exit and closure of the facilities discussed previously. Inflation added approximately $1.1
million to SG&amp;A, and our right sizing and cost takeout initiatives, reduced second quarter SG&amp;A by $2.5 million in the continuing operations. As significant as the absolute decline in SG&amp;A dollars, is the progress that has been achieved
in the reduction of SG&amp;A as a percent of sales. SG&amp;A was 11.3% of sales in the second quarter 2007. This is down from 12.6% sequentially in the first quarter 2007, and the same ratio 12.6%, in the second quarter last year. </FONT></P>

down 28.9% from January&nbsp;1, 2006. The initiatives currently underway, are targeting SG&amp;A reduction, of at least $10 million per year, with an objective to achieve a run rate at the industry mean of SG&amp;A, at 10% of sales by the end of
2008. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">On the energy front, Caraustar&#146;s blended rate in the second quarter 2007 was $6.13 per MMBTU. Rates were up sequentially in fuel oil and
electricity, but down slightly in coal and natural gas, which dropped $0.52 per MMBTU. Our ability to switch between energy sources in our mills, provides an operating hedge to energy volatility, for example, we increased the use of fuel oil from
11% of our boiler energy in the second quarter of &#145;06, to 24% in the second quarter &#145;07. Inversely, we reduced the use of natural gas, from 46% to 26%, over the same period. Near term going forward, we will fluctuate back to natural gas.
On a comparable mill basis, energy costs in the second quarter 2007 were pretty benign. $100,000 favorable, versus the same quarter last year, and $900,000 favorable sequentially, from the first quarter 2007 as we needed less fuel to heat our
facilities. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Crude oil closed last night at $76.86 per barrel, and natural gas ended at $6.11 for MMBTU. Our financial hedge position on energy is very
short. And we don&#146;t expect a change in that strategy near term. I will now turn it over to Bill to review cash flow, liquidity, debt, and working capital. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman"

second quarter, as we calculate it for purposes of our senior secured credit facility, and we&#146;ve also included in the supplemental data supplied with today&#146;s press release, a reconciliation of this non-GAAP measure to net cash used in
operating activities, as it appears on our statement of cash flows. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">For the second quarter of 2007, EBITDA was $7.7 ** million, and consisted of a net
quarterly loss, in brackets of $2.3 million. Tax benefit in brackets of $1.5 million. Plus interest expense of $4.8 million. Plus depreciation and amortization of $5.0 million. Less income from unconsolidated affiliates of negative $0.4 million.
Plus non-cash restructuring impairment costs of $2.1 million, for a total $7.7 million. This compares to $16 million for the same period a year ago and a negative $700,000 for the first quarter of 2007. </FONT></P> <P
STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The primary reasons for the decline remember versus the second quarter of 2006, were zero distributions from PDL compared to $5&nbsp;million in the second quarter of
2006. And $1.5 million less in interest income, as we built cash, in anticipation of the reduction of our senior subordinated notes, in Q2 of 2006. Comparing results sequentially versus the first quarter of 2007, the improved results are primarily
favorable to operating income of $4.2 million versus an operating loss, of negative $2 million. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Turning to cash and available liquidity, we ended the
quarter with $2.3 million of cash on the balance sheet. Our senior secured credit facility had total borrowings of $60.2 million, consisting of $28.2 million under the term loan portion of the facility, of which $5.8&nbsp;million is shown as a
current liability. And $32 million in drawn borrowings under the revolving portion of the facility. Availability under the revolver was $24.4 million at June&nbsp;30, 2007 after considerations and limitations for fixed charge coverage, and $15.7
million in outstanding letters of credit, both of which reduced availability. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Significant payments made in the second quarter of 2007 included a $4.7
million pension contribution, and $8.5 million in interest. The senior secured credit facility was amended in May, to provide approximately $10 million in additional availability, by reducing the full limitation for fixed charged coverage testing
from $20 million to $15 million, and reappraisal of our inventory, and subsequent increase of the advanced rate on that inventory, which provides approximately $5 million of additional availability. </FONT></P> <P
STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">We expect further improvement in liquidity in the second half of 2007 assuming no unusual events, to be accomplished through the following. First a resumption of cash
distributions from PBL in the third quarter, of which Caraustar&#146;s half would approximate $4&nbsp;million for the remainder of the year. That is a $4 million total for 2007, since to date we have received none. </FONT></P> <P
STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Projected proceeds, secondly, proceeds from the sale of certain non-core assets that could on consummation generate $25 million to $30 million of cash, before any tax
consequences, which we expect to be minimal. I emphasize that these transactions are not complete, and they are subject to due diligence, and other customary contingencies. We can&#146;t answer any specific questions to date, with regard to these
asset sales. We will provide you with details as they are closed. Proceeds from these sales will be used to reduce debt. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="font-size:12px;margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px">&nbsp;</P><HR WIDTH="8%" SIZE="1" NOSHADE COLOR="#000000"

continue to reduce working capital in the second half of 2007 which I will discuss further in just a moment. Before we leave liquidity, I want to update you on capital expenditures. CapEx for the second quarter was $3.5 million, down from
$8&nbsp;million in second quarter of 2006, and down from $8.1 million, in the first quarter of 2007. Total year to date CapEx is $11.6&nbsp;million, and we expect total 2007 CapEx to be in the $20 million to $25 million range. </FONT></P> <P
STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Working capital which we define as inventory plus accounts receivable less accounts payable, decreased $8.7 million from June&nbsp;30, 2006, and $3.6 million
sequentially from the end of Q1 at March&nbsp;31. The decrease in working capital was attributable to reduced inventory levels, improved collections, and a concerted effort to manage our supply chain, and partnership with our customers and vendors.
From March&nbsp;31, 2007 to June&nbsp;30, 2007, day&#146;s payable outstanding, decreased unfavorably by three days. Days sales outstanding, decreased favorably by 3.5 days, and days inventory outstanding decreased favorably by 1.2 days. We continue
to make working capital reduction a top priority and expect to report further improvement to you during the second half of 2007. At this time I will turn the call back to Mike, for closing comments. </FONT></P> <P

SIZE="2">Good morning. I was just wondering if you could help us a little bit, given the sort of magnitude of change in some of the major variables, like fiber costs and selling prices that are affecting you. Just in terms of trying to look at the
third quarter, and the rest of the year. Are you going to get any more on average, any incremental pricing, based on what you are seeing now? How would you quantify that, give than some the pricing has rolled in over time. I don&#146;t know if you
have view on fiber. I know you said it&#146;s been quite volatile and certainly higher in July than it had been. If you have any view there&#151; or any other major trend. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT

based on, what took place on the $80 spike, in say early spring, I think what we have right now, that we announced from a mill price standpoint, is basically what we&#146;re going to get based on that period of time. There is somewhat of a tail left
on the tube and core side. Maybe there is another $10 to $15 we will pick up on the converted side, with some back end. But I think what we see right now, directionally, is where we&#146;re gonna be. I think there is a little more pickup. We will
see on the coded side at our Tama mill. But on balance our overall mill ton price pickup is where it&#146;s going to be. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">On the fiber side, we have had
this recent spike, trying to figure out what that means. And I think every company is probably looking at it, on an individual basis. It&#146;s clearly gone up some. And pull back in some markets. I think I touched on the export side. Jon is the
wild card, I think what we can count on, we can count on volatility, and we will be proactive where we believe we can pick up price recovery in the marketplace. </FONT></P>

STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Thank you. Ron, Mike, just two questions, first, with the streamline mill system, you give us a little bit of a sense of what the flexibility does to your productivity?
I&#146;m curious how much shifting you have done between grades this quarter, and what are the pluses and minuses in terms of productivity and fiber composition to come with that, in this more streamline system? </FONT></P>

with a higher percentage of Gypsum facing paper at the PBL mill, we have the capability of running more tons. That&#146;s reality. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">But I would tell you
inside the mix on the container board side there is movement. Folks tend to look at that mill with the second grade&#151; medium, as the second grade. We had interesting opportunities where I would tell you that, of the 50% container board we run
last quarter, probably 20%, 22% was minor. And we&#146;re going to run more liner, which helps obviously the profitability of that location. But when you have that mix, you are running fewer tons. Not considerably fewer. You can change your fiber
mix, a little bit differently when you are running container board. So that there is some offset from had a cost standpoint there. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Specific to Sweetwater,
when we run &#151; it&#146;s a major transformation, by the way, of that machine. We are putting on a investment on the back end, $4.8 million, that allows it to run ribbons. But it will be when it&#146;s all said and done, the lowest cost tube
machine in the country. Clearly the lowest cost, too. And by running that grade along with especially, Gypsum, ultimately we will run more tons on that machine. It adds to the capability from a capacity standpoint. </FONT></P> <P

SIZE="2">Okay, that&#146;s very helpful. I didn&#146;t realize that last piece. My second to the last question was is if you could give us a little color what&#146;s happening in tube and core markets right now. Last couple of quarters, we seemed to
have seen, some mixed changes across the industry. I&#146;m wondering if we are still seeing meaningful changes in the composition of the tube and core business right now? </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT
FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B></B><B>Mike Keough</B> <B>- </B><B><I>Caraustar - President, CEO</I></B><B> </B></FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">It is a mature business. It is a
evolving. This year clearly the industry is down, and it&#146;s down when you break out major segments, the textile end continues to drift away, this year will see a tougher year over year, when you take a look at carpet cores, based on the housing
start. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">And the tube and core business is directly or indirectly, tied to a lot of segments on the housing side. I think anything, tied to housing, you
will see somewhat of a very, very tough year and you will have a continuation of products leaving this country. And with that there will be some challenges on the tube and core side. I think that a key, top five segment, is paper. And when you take
a look at the paper industry this year, we had stronger years, so there is some impacts there. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">I think our focus has been to take a look at what we do
well. When we purchase the (inaudible) stone assets back in &#145;02, it allowed us to have geographic reach. It gave us some reach in deeper reach in the film cores, and deeper reach into paper, and away from textiles. We have balanced our
portfolio there. We have have had, in the tube and core end investments over the last couple of years that get us deeper into the construction tube business. We have done that with capital and we have done that with ventures that allow us some
geographic reach. It is a business that is changing. Another segment that is part of our tube and core business is what we call protective board, and some folks call angle board. That&#146;s a good business for us for a host of reasons, and we are
putting in our fifth location, this year in Beardstown which is South &#151; Southern Illinois and gives us geographic reach into the upper Mid West. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman"

forward. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B></B><B>Ron Domanico</B> <B>- </B><B><I>Caraustar - CFO, SVP</I></B><B> </B></FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT
FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Yes, Gale. If you think about what transpired, overnight, with facing slowing down because of housing, but overnight we found ourselves naked, at that mill in October. We are faced with a number of challenges for the
balance of &#145;06 and in &#145;07. Basically what we had was, we had a 150,000-ton hold. A mini mill, that Caraustar had to move real quick. I think we have done a heck of a job, we took downtime in the month of November. I think roughly 11 days,
12 days in December. Maybe six directionally in January. Two days, three days in February, and we have been sold out since then, what happens when you react that quickly, and we did go back to our partner, and did pick up tons, but we have gone to
the market and we had to stretch. With that you have a mix of business that allows you to work on it, and refine it. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Gypsum facing paper is more
profitable than container board is, now&#151; and we are on the streets announcing an increase of $40 a ton to our customer base, and we do believe there is a high probability that, that will go through, which should help us, back half, really third
quarter and fourth quarter. But we are cleaning up our mix, Gale. More of a mixed fix right now. We are trying to get closer in from a freight strand-point. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman"

Wondering if you could talk about the coated board. There have been a few more, at least short term, mill shuts. Competitors I&#146;ve never heard of, announcing price increases. If you can just talk about what&#146;s going on and how your
performance has compared. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B></B><B>Mike Keough</B> <B>- </B><B><I>Caraustar - President, CEO</I></B><B> </B></FONT></P> <P
STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Sure. The CRB business which is probably the most &#151; it was clearly the most challenged business to Caraustar when we were in it, in a big way with Sprague and
Rittman. As hard as we tried, we couldn&#146;t get there. It&#146;s a business that has transformed itself, based on consolidations and a number of rationalizations. Because of that, my guess is, it&#146;s one of the strongest, better performing,
businesses in the industry. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Our snapshot is really looking inside our Tama operation. Tama is a mill in Iowa. It&#146;s a coated recycle box board mill,
that we have retained. It&#146;s always been a good mill to us. And we have put a couple of small capital projects in there, and I talked about growing our shipment &#151; not capacity, only capacity, but also we have grown our shipments 12% a
month, over the last two years. There is fabulous demand. There is long lead times. And for the first time we are being paid a fair price in the marketplace where you have a very good return. </FONT></P> <P
STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">And I think you are right, Gail. There are some one-off companies. There is an announcement out there right now, by a small independent in the Mid West with another CRB
increase, and it&#146;s all supply and demand right now. It&#146;s a very strong business and we are throwing off a lot of cash at our Tama location. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman"

that the coated recycled box board story is, clearly in our rear view mirror, and we were part of that transformation, in terms of deciding to exit at Sprague and Rittman. I have to believe that you smart folks are taking a look at it, and wondering

drive that? </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B></B><B>Ron Domanico</B> <B>- </B><B><I>Caraustar - CFO, SVP</I></B><B> </B></FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT
FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Hey Bruce. It&#146;s Ron. EBITDA in the second quarter for PBL on 100% basis was $7 * million. Our half of that would be $3.5 * million. Distributions are a combination of cash generation by the joint venture, less
cash requirements, for working capital in the event of volatile fiber. Our cushion is higher, to make sure that we have got coverage there in the event of OCC and DLK increases, due to market demand and also capital expenditures. CapEx at PBL is
expected to be minimal this year for the continuing future less than $2 million a year. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">So as the mill continues, as Mike mentioned earlier to improve its
mix, to have the container board portion of that mix with closer and freight rates, we expect the EBITDA to improve significantly, in the second half from the first half, and we do expect distributions from the joint venture as Bill outlined in his
comments. It&#146;s a factor of cash generation, working capital cushion, and CapEx. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B></B><B>Bruce Klein</B> <B>- </B><B><I>Credit Suisse -

in the second half of the year. If we look at the nicks you&#146;ve got today, and it sounded like, Mike, you could run more liner board on this thing. What kind of incremental dollars will we be thinking about from a margin standpoint, against that
volume, or just from an EBITDA standpoint that you can get out of this asset? </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B></B><B>Mike Keough</B> <B>- </B><B><I>Caraustar - President,
CEO</I></B><B> </B></FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">I would tell you that the first opportunity, when I take a look at the container board. Pretty quickly, we had to fill up roughly
150,000 tons. We are going back through mixed fixed. and that includes&#151; we were probably, as we stand right now, we&#146;re probably challenged with 4,000 tons oversold. Which is a high class problem. We are trying to move up the food chain, in
terms of what we charge for the product, number one. Number two, we would rather have close in freight. Initially we had to do some stretching. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">So, if you
take a look at margin improvement, if you can get more for a ton of medium or liner, and if you can ship closer in, I think the margin piece will just flow pretty quickly. Traditionally, Bill, there is a premium. Liner or medium, so the more liner
we sell we will get that delta. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The other thing we do pick up, with running liner you run heavier, than you do medium, so going back to the question that
Mark asked, we will be running a basis weight, that&#146;s going to be closer to Gypsum facing, than it is to medium. We run a fair amount of 23 pound medium, and then you have facing close to 42 pounds. So if you&#146;re running liner at 35 pounds
and 42, or a little bit higher than that, you pick up more daily tons. It&#146;s a combination of all of that, and you fiber that mill a little differently too, on the container board side. So it&#146;s a combination of all of those things.

a quarter over quarter basis by $38 a ton. That was more than I was expecting. Could you talk about what your fiber mix is and what were the grades that went up so much? </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT

Fiber mix at Caraustar is pretty consistent over the years. We use about 47% old corrugated containers. We have 17% of DLK. 21% of box cuts and cores. And then between 4% and 6% each of news, mixed paper, and the high grades like envelope cuttings.
That&#146;s our fiber mix, at least that&#146;s what it was for the full year 2006. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Mike, in his prepared comments talked about the publication increases,
where we had an $80 a ton increase in 0CC in Q1 which was 123%. That excludes the freight component. But then it dropped down $40, and then back up $30. The increase, and based on the amount of time it takes us to move fiber through our inventory,
and then through sales, the increase was pretty much in line with what we had expected for the quarter, and we weren&#146;t caught off guard by that. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman"

STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The volatility has been tremendous just these last couple of weeks. China coming in very strong. Maybe a month ago, and then backing off, maybe last week, so it&#146;s
really hard to tell. If I were to guess I would say that it would be up for the quarter, and I would say probably in the neighborhood of $10 to $15 a ton and that&#146;s just my own conjecture. </FONT></P>

STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Mike did mention there would be a tail, on pricing especially, on the tube and core side. I mentioned in my comes we believed energy costs would be going down, due to the
significant reduction in the second quarter for natural gas. That could change in a day if there is a hurricane generating in the Atlantic. But right now, it looks like energy could be favorable, to the tune of $3 to $5 a ton in Q3. That would
partially offset the fiber. Plus or minus. I would say, some minimal margin compression overall. But historically, the third quarter has been our strongest volume this quarter, and we would hope that the volume would offset any minor margin
compression. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B></B><B>Mike Keough</B> <B>- </B><B><I>Caraustar - President, CEO</I></B><B> </B></FONT></P> <P
STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Christopher, Mike, a tag-on and it goes back to Gail&#146;s question, too. I think the reality is, in the URB space, right now, there isn&#146;t the same type of supply
and demand balance you see on the CRB side. And because of that I can tell you that Caraustar clearly, in the first quarter, lost the peak, of the fiber spike, based on the dynamics of the marketplace, and how quickly you can get to the market, and
what percent you can recover. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The dynamics used to be that way in the CRB business, are not that way. If fiber spikes, CRB has found a way, to recover
that. We have, clearly in Tama. But I think it&#146;s the challenge, that not only Caraustar faces, but other folks in the industry. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman"

expenses, it seems like you guys have done an impressive job in cutting those. I&#146;m wondering, is there much more opportunity left? Or do you feel like you are toward the end of the road on that? </FONT></P> <P

SIZE="2">Christopher, the company has cost takeout program that we spent a lot of work on. That program includes 49 different initiatives that were identified at the beginning of the year, and some of those initiatives have been fully executed, and
we started seeing some of the savings, net of severance cost in Q2 and we will see additional savings in Q3. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">We expect to have that program executed by
year end. And that program when fully executed, will deliver the savings, that I mentioned in my comments of $10 million per year and lower costs, on a go-forward basis to get the company to the target of 10% of SG&amp;A to sales ratio. So it&#146;s
been very heavy lifting, and very painful. We felt it had to be done, especially with the dynamics in our industry. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">But the commitments we&#146;ve made
are based on, specific projects, that have individual&#146;s names tied to those projects, with timetables tied to them, and we are executing according to that initiative. So we do feel comfortable that we will continue to show progress in the
SG&amp;A lines, and that we will be at the committed level of savings going forward. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B></B><B>Christopher</B> <B>- </B><B><I>Deutsche Bank -
