     "Radnor" or the "Company") pursuant to the rules and regulations of the
     Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote
     disclosures normally included in consolidated financial statements prepared
     in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been
     condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. In the opinion
     of the Company, the statements include all adjustments (which include only
     normal recurring adjustments) required for a fair statement of financial
     position, results of operations and cash flows for such periods. The
     results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily

</TABLE>

     Net sales for the three months ended September 29, 2000 were $97.3 million,
an increase of $14.9 million from the three months ended September 24, 1999.
This increase was primarily caused by growth in sales volume and increased
pricing across all operating segments. Gross profit for the three months ended
September 29, 2000 increased by $0.8 million to $23.9 million from $23.1 million
for the same period in 1999. This increase was primarily caused by increased
sales as well as improved manufacturing efficiencies, partially offset by
increased energy and raw material costs. Operating expenses for the three months
ended September 29, 2000 decreased to $16.1 million from $16.9 million for the
same period in 1999 primarily as a result of cost containment initiatives,
partially offset by increased distribution costs across all business segments.

     Net sales for the nine months ended September 29, 2000 were $271.8 million.
This $40.6 million or 17.6% increase from the same period in the prior year was
primarily due to growth in sales volume and increased pricing across all
operating segments. Gross profit for the nine months ended September 29, 2000
increased by $2.3 million to $67.2 million from $64.9 million for the same
period in 1999. This increase was primarily caused by increased sales as well as
improved manufacturing efficiencies, partially offset by increased energy and
raw material costs. Operating expenses increased by $2.1 million to $51.1
million for the nine months ended September 29, 2000 due to higher selling and
distribution costs, partially offset by the positive impact of cost containment
initiatives.

</TABLE>

     Net sales in the packaging and insulation business segment increased by
$5.5 million to $64.3 million for the three months ended September 29, 2000
primarily due to volume growth in the domestic packaging business and increased
pricing in both the domestic and European operations. Gross profit decreased to
26.3% of net sales for the three months ended September 29, 2000 from 30.3% of
net sales for the same period in 1999 primarily as a result of increased energy
and raw material costs, partially offset by improved manufacturing efficiencies.
Operating expenses increased to $11.3 million for the three months ended
September 29, 2000 from $10.6 million for the same period in 1999 primarily due
to higher distribution costs in the domestic packaging operations, partially
offset by cost containment initiatives.

     Net sales for the nine months ended September 29, 2000 were $183.4 million.
This $15.3 million or 9.1% increase over the nine months ended September 24,
1999 was primarily due to volume growth and increased pricing. Gross profit
decreased to 27.0% of net sales for the nine months ended September 29, 2000
from 30.8% for the same period in 1999. This decrease was primarily caused by
increased energy and raw material costs, partially offset by manufacturing
efficiencies. Operating expenses increased by $2.5 million to $33.3 million for
the nine months ended September 29, 2000 due to higher selling and distribution
costs, partially offset by administrative cost containment initiatives.

     Net sales for the third quarter of fiscal 2000 increased to $32.2 million
from $29.6 million for the same period in 1999. This $2.6 million increase was
due to higher sales volume and selling prices. Net sales for the three months
ended September 29, 2000 and September 24, 1999 included sales to the packaging
and insulation segment of $9.3 million and $6.5 million, respectively. Gross
profit increased by $1.5 million to $6.2 million for the three months ended
September 29, 2000. As a percentage of net sales, gross profit increased to
19.3% for the third quarter of fiscal 2000 from 15.9% for the same period in
1999. This increase was primarily due to

                                       11
<PAGE>

increased selling prices and manufacturing efficiencies throughout the segment.
Operating expenses remained constant at $4.1 million for each of the three-month
periods ended September 29, 2000 and September 24, 1999.

     Net sales in the specialty chemicals business segment increased by $6.7
million to $86.1 million for the nine months ended September 29, 2000 primarily
due to increased sales volume and selling prices.  Net sales for the nine months
ended September 29, 2000 and September 24, 1999 included sales to the packaging
and insulation segment of $23.7 million and $17.7 million, respectively.  Gross
profit increased by $3.7 million to $14.9 million for the nine months ended
September 29, 2000.  As a percentage of net sales, gross profit increased to
17.3% for the third quarter of fiscal 2000 from 14.1% for the same period in
1999.  This increase was primarily caused by increased selling prices as well as
improved manufacturing efficiencies. Operating expenses decreased by $0.2
million to $12.0 million for the nine months ended September 29, 2000 primarily
as a result of cost containment initiatives.

Corporate & Other

     For the three-month and nine-month periods ended September 29, 2000,
corporate operating expenses decreased by $1.6 million and $0.2 million to $0.6
million and $5.8 million, respectively, from the same periods in 1999. These
decreases were due to lower administrative costs at the Company's executive
offices, partially offset by increased amortization of intangible assets.

as well as greater borrowings related to capital expenditures and an increased
level of working capital.

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

     During the nine months ended September 29, 2000, the Company's principal
source of funds consisted of cash from financing activities. During the nine
months ended September 24, 1999, the Company's principal source of funds
consisted of cash from operating and financing activities. During the 2000
period, after tax cash flow of $13.1 million and net borrowings on bank financed
debt and capital lease obligations of $16.1 million were primarily used to fund
capital expenditures of $9.9 million and a $21.3 million increase in working
capital.

     As of September 29, 2000, the Company had $36.4 million outstanding and
$5.5 million of availability under its revolving credit agreements. The
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.
