(5)  SEGMENT INFORMATION

     SFAS No. 131, "Disclosures About Segments of an Enterprise and Related
     Information," requires the use of a segment reporting model called the
     management approach. The management approach is based on the way that the
     chief operating decision maker organizes segments within a company for
     making operating decisions and assessing performance.

     The Company has two business segments that operate within three distinct
     geographic regions. The packaging and insulation segment produces food
     packaging and insulation products for distribution to the foodservice,
     insulation and packaging industries. The specialty chemicals segment
     produces EPS for internal consumption by the packaging and insulation
     segment in addition to selling to third-party manufacturers. Each of these
     segments operates in the United States, Canada and Europe. The following
     tables summarize the Company's financial information and results of
     operations by segment and geographic region for the three months ended
     March 26, 1999 and March 27, 1998.

ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
         OF OPERATIONS

General
- -------

  Radnor Holdings Corporation, through acquisition and internal development, has
established itself as a leading worldwide manufacturer and distributor of
specialty chemicals and foam packaging and insulation products for the
foodservice, insulation and packaging industries.

  The packaging and insulation business segment manufactures and distributes
foam cup and container products for the foodservice industry as well as a
variety of standard and specialized insulation products. Through its WinCup
Holdings, Inc. ("WinCup") subsidiary, the Company is the second largest producer
in the United States of foam cups and containers for the foodservice industry.
The specialty chemicals business segment primarily manufactures and distributes
expandable polystyrene ("EPS") bead for internal consumption and distribution to
the insulation and packaging industries. Through its Radnor Chemical Corporation
("Radnor Chemical") subsidiary, the Company is the fifth largest worldwide
producer of EPS.

Results of Operations
- ---------------------

     In January 1999, the EPS production operations located in Minton, Texas
were transferred from the Company's Radnor Chemical subsidiary to its WinCup
subsidiary. This facility manufactures a substantial portion of the EPS utilized
by the Company's domestic food packaging operations with the remainder purchased
from Radnor Chemical's Canadian EPS manufacturing facility. The Company's
results of operations for the three months ended March 27, 1998 have been
restated to reflect the impact of this transaction for purposes of Management's
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

</TABLE>

  Net sales for the three months ended March 26, 1999 were $67.8 million.  This
$4.0 million decrease from the three months ended March 27, 1998 was caused by
reductions in selling prices in the specialty chemicals segment, partially
offset by growth in the insulation and food packaging businesses.  Gross profit
increased to 27.4% of net sales for the first quarter of fiscal 1999 from 26.5%
of net sales in the first quarter of fiscal 1998.  This increase was caused by
improved manufacturing efficiencies and lower raw material costs, partially
offset by increased depreciation expense of $0.6 million and the impact of the
reduced specialty chemical selling prices.   Operating expenses for the three
months ended March 26, 1999 increased to $15.2 million from $13.7 million for
the same period in 1998 primarily as a result of a $0.5 million increase in
amortization of intangible assets and increased operating costs in the
administrative operations.

</TABLE>

          Net sales in the packaging and insulation business segment increased
by $1.9 million to $50.0 million for the three months ended March 26, 1999.
This 4.0% increase over the three months ended March 27, 1998 was primarily due
to volume growth within both the insulation and food packaging businesses.
Gross profit increased to 31.2% of net sales for the three months ended March
26, 1999 from 28.5% of net sales for the same period in 1998 as a result of
improved manufacturing efficiencies and higher production levels.  Operating
expenses decreased to 18.6% of net sales for the three months ended March 26,
1999 from 18.9% of net sales for the three months ended March 27, 1998 primarily
due to lower distribution costs within both the food packaging and insulation
packaging operations.  Income from operations for the three months ended March
26, 1999 increased by $1.7 million or 37.0% over the same period in 1998 as a
result of the reasons described above.

  Net sales for the three months ended March 26, 1999 and March 27, 1998
included sales to the packaging and insulation segment of $3.7 million and $3.0
million, respectively.  Net sales for the first quarter of fiscal 1999 decreased
to $21.1 million from $26.7 million for the same period in 1998.  This $5.6
million decrease was primarily due to reductions in selling prices in both the
North American and European specialty chemicals businesses.  These price
reductions were the combined result of lower underlying raw material prices and
excess supply in the North American and European EPS markets caused by increased
competition from Asian producers.

  Gross profit decreased to 10.4% of net sales for the first quarter of fiscal
1999 as compared to 21.3% of net sales for the same period in 1998.  This
decrease was primarily caused by the reduction in selling prices described
above, partially offset by lower raw material costs and increased manufacturing
efficiencies.  Operating expenses increased $0.2 million to $3.8 million for the
three months ended March 26, 1999 as a result of increased distribution costs in
the European specialty chemicals business.

Corporate & Other

  Corporate operating expenses increased by $1.1 million to $2.1 million for the
three months ended March 26, 1999.  This increase was primarily due to a $0.5
million increase in amortization of intangible assets and increased operating
costs at the Company's executive offices in Radnor, Pennsylvania.

- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
</TABLE>

  Interest expense for the three months ended March 26, 1999 increased by $0.4
million over the same period in 1998. This increase was primarily due to
increased borrowings related to the purchase of the Company's Atlanta, Georgia
and Tolleson, Arizona food packaging plants in June 1998 and March 1999,
respectively. In addition, amortization of deferred financing fees and debt
issuance premium increased to $0.3 million for the three months ended March 26,
1999 from $0.2 million for the same period in 1998.

  The effective tax rate for the three months ended March 26, 1999 decreased to
37.1% of pre-tax income from 38.0% of pre-tax income for the same period in
1998.  As of March 26, 1999 the Company had approximately $26.1 million of net
operating loss carryforwards for federal income tax purposes, which expire
through 2019.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
- -------------------------------

  During the three months ended March 26, 1999 and March 27,1998, the Company's
principal source of funds consisted of cash from financing activities. During
the 1999 period, after tax cash flow of $2.1 million, borrowings on bank
financed debt of $6.7 million and a decrease in cash of $2.2 million were
primarily used to fund capital expenditures of $6.0 million and a $4.3 million
increase in working capital.

  As of March 26, 1999, the Company had $24.7 million outstanding and $10.0
million of availability under its revolving credit agreements.  The Company's
principal uses of cash for the next several years will be working capital
requirements and capital expenditures.

  As a holding company, Radnor Holdings Corporation is dependent upon dividends
and other payments from its subsidiaries to generate the funds necessary to meet
its obligations.  Subject to certain limitations under applicable state law and
the Company's credit agreements, Radnor Holdings Corporation is, and will
continue to be, able to control its receipt of dividends and other payments from
its subsidiaries. Management believes that cash generated from operations,
together with available borrowings under the revolving credit facilities, will
be sufficient to meet the Company's expected operating needs, planned capital
expenditures and debt service requirements.

Other Financial Data
- --------------------

Year 2000 Readiness Disclosure

  Many existing computer hardware and software systems use only the last two
digits to identify a year.  As a result, many systems do not yet recognize the
difference between years beginning with "20" instead of "19".  This, as well as
other date related processing issues, may cause systems to fail or malfunction
unless corrected.

  The Company's current Year 2000 assessment is that some of its data processing
systems are generally not compliant.  Some of these systems can easily be
updated or modified to be compliant, but several of the Company's systems cannot
be updated because of software or hardware limitations.  The Company has begun
the process of replacing these systems with Year 2000 compliant data processing
systems.  As of March 26, 1999 the Company had incurred approximately $100,000
in costs to upgrade or replace its noncompliant systems, including internal
costs for personnel, training, supplies, travel and equipment.  The total cost
to upgrade or replace the Company's noncompliant systems is not expected to
exceed $400,000 and is expected to be funded through operations.  The Company
has assessed its non-information technology systems and does not believe that
any Year 2000 noncompliance with respect to these systems will have a material
adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition, cash flows or
results of operations.

  In the event that any of the Company's operations remain Year 2000
noncompliant near the end of 1999, the Company plans to transfer the accounting
and information processing of those operations to the Company's systems that are
Year 2000 compliant.  The Company estimates that the overall risk to its
operations as a result of noncompliance with Year 2000 for its existing systems
in a most likely worst case scenario is less than $250,000.  There can be no
assurance, however, that this estimate represents the Company's maximum Year
2000 exposure.

  The ability of third parties with which the Company transacts business to
adequately address their Year 2000 issues is outside of the Company's control.
The Company is taking steps to obtain written confirmations that the systems of
its suppliers and customers are Year 2000 compliant and to determine whether the
nature of any noncompliance would have a material adverse effect on the
Company's business, financial condition, cash flows or results of operations.
The Company anticipates this process will be completed no later than June 25,
1999, and will develop contingency plans, as necessary, based upon the results
of the confirmations.

  Even assuming that all material third parties confirm that they are or expect
to be Year 2000 compliant by December 31, 1999, it is not possible to state with
certainty that such parties will be so compliant, or that the operations of such
third parties will not be materially impacted by other parties with whom they
themselves have a material relationship, and who fail to timely become Year 2000
compliant.   Consequently, it is not possible to predict whether or to what
extent the Year 2000 issues may have an adverse material impact on the Company
as a result of their impact on the operations of third parties with whom the
Company has a material relationship.
 
  There can be no assurance that the failure of the Company or such third
parties to adequately address their respective Year 2000 issues will not have a
material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition, cash
flows or results of operations.

Financial Instruments

  There has been no material change in the net financial instrument position or
sensitivity to market risk since the disclosure in the annual report.
