                 CONTINENTAL CAN COMPANY, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                 JUNE 30, 1994

  (1)   Accounting Policies and Other Matters
       (a) Basis of Presentation

           Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in
           financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted
           accounting principles have been condensed or omitted.  It is
           suggested that these consolidated financial statements be read in
           conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included
           in the Company's 1993 Annual Report to Stockholders.

       (b) Adjustments

           The results for the interim period reported herein have not been
           audited; however, in the opinion of management, all adjustments
           necessary for a fair presentation of the interim period statements
           have been made.

           (c) Earnings Per Common Share

           Earnings per common share is based on the weighted average number of
           common and common equivalent shares outstanding.  Common equivalent
           shares include dilutive stock options (using the treasury stock
           method) exercisable under the Company's option plans.  Weighted
           average shares outstanding in the second quarter of 1994 and 1993,
           were 3,229,988 and 3,031,979, respectively and for the first six
           months of 1994 and 1993 were 3,131,969, and 3,033,119, respectively.

           For both periods of 1993 and 1994, earnings per common share,
           assuming full dilution, gives effect to the conversion of the
           Company's outstanding  10-3/4% Convertible Subordinated Debentures
           (the "Debentures") due May 1, 1994 as if such Debentures had been
           converted on the issue date, after elimination of related interest
           expense, net of income tax effect.  All Debentures were converted
           during the second quarter of 1994.  See Note 4.


  (2)   Inventories
      Inventories consist principally of packaging materials.  The components of
      inventory were as follows: (000's omitted)

  (3) Merger of Subsidiaries

      During the second quarter of 1994, the Company's subsidiaries Onena Bolsas
  de Papel S.A. (Onena), Industrias Gomariz S.A. (Ingosa) and Dixie Union S.A.
  legally merged with effect from January 1, 1994.  The provincial government
  through SODENA, an economic development corporation, was issued 41% of the
  merged entity, Onena Bolsas de Papel S.A., in exchange for the elimination of
  $3,905,000 (534 million pesetas) in overdue local taxes owed by Ingosa.  In
  addition, SODENA provided a loan in the amount of $2,272,000 (309 million
  pesetas) on an interest-free basis for three years.  These transactions have
  been 

                                       8

  accounted for under the purchase method with the excess over the negotiated
  value of SODENA's equity interest ($1,097,000;150 million pesetas) and the
  excess over the loan amount discounted at a 7% annual rate ($439,000;57
  million pesetas), being allocated to property, plant and equipment.

  (4) Common Stock

      During the second quarter of 1994, the Company's Debentures, totaling
  $1,164,187 in principal amount, matured.  All of the Debentures were
  surrendered for conversion and 267,799 shares of common stock were issued.
  Holders of the Debentures had two options with regard to the conversion, one
  of which required the payment of additional cash.  Pursuant to this option
  $146,152 was received, $146,152 principal amount of Debentures were
  surrendered, and 38,974 shares of Common Stock were issued.  The remaining
  $1,018,035  principal amount of Debentures were surrendered for 228,825 shares
  of Common Stock.

  The  elimination of the Debentures and the additional cash received resulted
  in the reduction of Long Term Debt by $1,164,187, an increase in the Common
  Stock account of $66,950 and an increase in the Paid-in Capital account of
  $1,243,389.



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

         Sales during the second quarter of 1994 increased 6% to $135,127,000,
  as compared to $127,460,000 in the second quarter of 1993.  Sales in the first
  six months of 1994 increased 5% to $250,977,000 from $238,232,000  in the same
  prior year period.  Higher 1994 sales resulted from volume increases in each
  of the Company's packaging subsidiaries, as well as from the acquisition of
  Ingosa in late 1993.  Reducing the amount of the sales improvement was the
  effect of foreign currency translation rate differences which lowered reported
  sales by the Company's European operations by approximately 5% ($4.7 million)
  in the first six months of 1994 and 3% ($2.3 million) in the second quarter of
  1994, as compared to the same prior year periods.

       Gross profit was higher in each period of 1994 than the same prior year
  period although gross profit as a percentage of sales declined approximately
  0.7% in the second quarter and first six months of 1994 from the same periods
  of 1993.  This decline primarily resulted from a higher mix of lower margin
  business at Ferembal and competitive pressure in the European flexible film
  business in Europe, which more than offset margin improvement at PCI.

       Selling, general and administrative expense as a percentage of sales
  declined approximately 0.4% in the first six months of 1994 versus the same
  prior year period.  Selling, general and administrative expense as a
  percentage of sales in the second quarter of 1994 and 1993 was approximately
  equal over both periods.  Selling, general and administrative expense was
  negatively impacted during both periods of 1994 by expenses relating to the
  merger of Ingosa and Onena.  See Note 3.  Because of these various factors,
  operating income amounted to $8,017,000 and $12,522,000 in the second quarter
  and first six months of 1994, respectively, as compared to $8,376,000 and
  $13,152,000 in the same periods of 1993.

       Net interest expense declined to $4,446,000 in the second quarter of 1994
  from $5,864,000 in the same period of 1993.  Net interest expense declined to
  $9,054,000 in the first six months of 1994 as compared to $11,589,000 in the
  same period of 1993.  This decline resulted from lower consolidated debt
  levels, and lower interest rates principally at the Company's European
  subsidiaries.

       Provision for income taxes amounted to $1,478,000 and $2,169,000 in the
  second quarter and first six months of 1994, respectively,  as compared to
  $1,677,000 and $2,060,000 in the second quarter and first six months of 1993,
  reflecting a lower level of tax benefits for accounting purposes in loss
  operations than tax expense in the Company's profitable operations.  Minority
  interest during each period reflects the interests of other shareholders in
  some of the Company's subsidiaries.

                                       9
<PAGE>
 
       Net income before extraordinary items amounted to $1,713,000 ($.53 per
  share)in the second quarter of 1994 as compared to $958,000 ($.32 per share)
  in the second quarter of 1993.  During the second quarter and first six months
  of 1994, the Company recognized an extraordinary charge amounting to $73,000
  ($0.02 per share) related to the purchase and cancellation by PCI of $3
  million of its 10.75% Senior Secured Notes.  During the first six months of
  1994, the Company recorded a charge amounting to $263,000 ($.08 per share)
  resulting from the cumulative effect of an accounting change.  Net income in
  the first six months of 1994 amounted to $1,187,000 ($.39 per share) as
  compared to net income of $134,000 ($.04 per share) in 1993.



  FINANCIAL CONDITION
  -------------------


  CAPITAL REQUIREMENTS
  --------------------

       The Company acquired $3,032,000 and $9,826,000 of capital assets during
  the second quarter and first six months of 1994, respectively, consisting
  primarily of packaging equipment.  These assets were acquired for cash.
  Similar types of assets are expected to be acquired for the remainder of 1994
  and total capital expenditures are expected to amount to approximately $24
  million.

       The Company intends to actively pursue acquisition possibilities in 1994.
  It is presently the Company's intention to finance any acquisitions by
  leveraging the assets of the business to be acquired, with existing cash,
  through bank borrowings or, possibly, through the issuance of stock.


  LIQUIDITY

       The Company's liquidity position declined slightly during the second
  quarter of 1994.  Working capital decreased to approximately $73.8 million,
  and the current ratio amounted to 1.49 at June 30, 1994 compared to 1.67 at
  December 31, 1993.

        For the six months ended June 30, 1994, net cash used by operating
  activities amounted to $4,742,000 and was to fund an increase in working
  capital.  The increase in the Company's working capital requirements in the
  second and third quarters of each year is primarily a result of the
  seasonality of Ferembal's business which peaks at these periods because of the
  harvest of vegetable crops for canning.  Net cash used in investing
  activities, primarily capital expenditures, amounted to $9,773,000 during the
  first six months of 1994.  The cash required for the Company's operating and
  investing activities for this period in excess of that provided by net income
  and depreciation was financed with short term borrowings which were also used
  to make payments of long term debt.  The Company expects that, as Ferembal
  collects receivables and reduces its seasonally high inventories relating to
  vegetable canning, these short term borrowings will be repaid.

       At June 30, 1994, the Company had an available credit line under a
  Revolving Credit Agreement of $2.1 million.  In addition, the Company's
  consolidated subsidiaries had available approximately $26 million in credit
  lines and bank overdraft facilities at June 30, 1994.  However, the Company's
  ability to draw upon these lines for other than its subsidiaries' needs is
  restricted.

       The Company expects that cash from operations and its existing banking
  facilities will be sufficient to meet its operating needs for the remainder of
  1994.  On a long term basis the Company believes that existing funds, cash
  generated by operations and its existing banking facilities will be sufficient
  to meet its cash needs.
