These financial statements are the responsibility of the Plan's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. As described in Note 2, the financial statements and supplemental schedule were prepared on a modified cash basis of accounting, which is a comprehensive basis of accounting other than accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the net assets available for benefits (modified cash basis) of the Ennis Business Forms, Inc. 401(k) Plan as of December 31, 2003 and 2002, and the changes in net assets available for benefits (modified cash basis) for the year ended December 31, 2003 in conformity with the modified cash basis of accounting described in Note 2. Our audit was performed for the purpose of forming an opinion on the financial statements taken as a whole. The accompanying supplemental schedule of assets (held at end of year) (modified cash basis) as of December 31, 2003, is presented for purposes of additional analysis and is not a required part of the financial statements but is supplementary information required by the Department of Labor's Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. The supplemental schedule is the responsibility of the Plan's management. The supplemental schedule has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in our audit of the 2003 financial statements and, in our opinion, is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the 2003 financial statements taken as a whole. /s/ Travis, Wolff & Company, L.L.P.

Description of the Plan The following description of the Ennis, Inc. (the "Company") 401(k) Plan (the "Plan") provides only general information. Participants should refer to the Plan document for a more complete description of the Plan's provisions. (a) General The Plan was formed February 1, 1994 and is a defined contribution plan covering substantially all employees of the Company. The Plan is subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA) and the Internal Revenue Code (IRC). In addition, the financial statements have been prepared in compliance with ERISA. (b) Eligibility Employees age 18 and older of the Company are eligible to participate in the Plan after completing 60 days of service, as defined by the Plan. (c) Contributions Participants may make voluntary contributions to the Plan ranging from 1% to 100% of eligible pay subject to the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) annual limitations. The Plan allows rollovers of distributions from other qualified plans. The Plan provides for 50% employer matching contributions or discretionary employer contributions not to exceed $1,000 for certain employees not enrolled in the Pension Plan for Employees of the Company. Eligibility for employer contributions depends on the participant's employment location. During 2003, the Company made a profit sharing contribution of $400,000 on behalf of the former employees of Northstar Computer Forms, Inc. in accordance with their original plan. The Northstar Computer Forms, Inc. 401(k) Profit Sharing Plan was merged into the Plan on February 1, 2001. (d) Participant Accounts Each participant's account is credited with the participant's contribution, any employer contribution, and the allocation of the Plan earnings. Allocations are based on participant earnings or account balances, as defined in the Plan document. The benefit to which a participant is entitled is the benefit that can be provided from the participant's interest in his or her account. (e) Vesting Participants are immediately vested in their contributions plus actual earnings thereon and qualified employer matching contributions. Profit sharing contributions vest over a period of five years. 4 ENNIS, INC. 401(k) PLAN Notes to Financial Statements (continued) (Modified Cash Basis) 1. Description of the Plan - Continued (f) Loans Under provisions of the Plan, participants may borrow up to 50% of their total account balance up to a maximum of $50,000. Loan repayments are made in equal installments through payroll deductions generally over a term not to exceed five years. All loans are considered a directed investment from the participant's Plan account with all payments of principal and interest credited to the participant's account. A maximum number of two outstanding loans are allowed per individual. The minimum loan is $1,000 and requires a $75 set-up fee payable for each loan. The interest rate is determined based on the prime rate as determined by the Plan's trustee plus 2%. 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (a) Basis of Accounting The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on the modified cash basis of accounting and present the net assets available for benefits and changes in those net assets. Consequently, certain additions and the related assets are recognized when received rather than when earned, and certain deductions are recognized when paid rather than when the obligation is incurred. Investments are adjusted to fair value for presentation in the accompanying financial statements. Purchases and sales are recorded on a trade-date basis. The modified cash basis of accounting is a comprehensive basis of accounting other than accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. (b) Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with the modified cash basis of accounting, which is a comprehensive basis of accounting other than accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, requires management to make estimates that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. (c) Investments Investments in registered investment companies are valued at published market prices, which represent the net asset value of the shares held by the Plan at year-end. Units of common collective trusts are valued based on the fair value of the underlying assets of the trust as determined by the trust sponsor. Common stock is valued at the quoted market price on the last business day of the year. Money market funds are valued at cost, which approximates market value. Participant loans are valued at cost, which approximates fair value. (d) Benefits paid to Participants Benefits paid to participants are recorded as a reduction of net assets available for benefits when paid. 5 ENNIS, INC. 401(k) PLAN Notes to Financial Statements (continued) (Modified Cash Basis) 3.
