                                  ==================  =============

(a)  On April 4, 1997, the Company issued $75,000,000 of 11 1/4% ten year notes.
     Interest on the notes is payable semi-annually. These proceeds along with a
     capital contribution of $18,373,000 were used to repay the balance of
     $36,800,000 on the credit facility, repay the senior subordinated notes of
     $25,200,000, including a prepayment penalty of $1,200,000 and repurchase
     the redeemable warrants for $20,000,000. These transactions resulted in an
     extraordinary loss of approximately $20,666,000. The extraordinary loss was
     comprised of (i) the prepayment penalty of $1,200,000 and the write-off of
     deferred financing costs and debt discount of $3,449,000 net of the
     combined tax benefit of $1,757,000 and (ii) the loss of the repurchase of
     the warrant of $17,773,000. The fair value of the warrants was determined
     pursuant to the contractually agreed value among the relevant parties.

(b)  PurePlast has loan facilities as follows:

      o     Line of credit for $722,000 at the prime rate, plus 1/4%. The line
            is due on demand and is unsecured. There is $276,000 outstanding at
            September 26, 1997.

      o     Term loan in the amount of $109,000. The loan is due in monthly
            payments of $4,000, plus interest at prime, plus 1 1/4%

ITEM 2: Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
        of Operations

Forward-Looking Statements

In additon to historical information, this Quarterly Report contains
forward-looking statements relating to such matters as anticipated financial
performance, business propects, new products, and similar matters. The Private
Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 provides a safe harbor for
forward-looking statements. In order to comply with the terms of the safe
harbor, the Company notes that a variety of factors could cause the Company's
actual results and experience to differ materially from the anticipated results
or other expectations expressed in the Company's forward-looking statements. The
risks and uncertainties that may affect the operation, performance, development
and results of the Company's business include, but are not limited to, those
matters discussed herein in the sections entitled Part I, Item 1-Management's
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of operations and
Part II, Item 1-Legal Proceedings. The words "believe", "expect", "anticipate",
"project" and similar expressions identify forward-looking statements, which
reflect management's analysis only as of the date hereof. The Company undertakes
no obligation to publicly revise these forward-looking statemtns to reflect
events or circumstances that arise after the date hereof. Readers should
carefully review the risk factors described in other documents the Company files
from time to time with Securities and Exchange Commission, including without
limitation, the Company's Form S-4 for the year ended June 27, 1997.

First three months of 1998 Compared with the first three months of 1997

Net Sales increased to $37.8 million for the three months ended September 26,
1997 from $35.2 million for the three months ended September 26, 1996. This
represents an increase of $2.6 million or 6.9%. The increased sales are
primarily attributed to the acquisition of PurePlast and the intensive efforts
to expand our market in the flexible packaging division.

Cost of Goods Sold increased to $27.9 million for the three months ended
September 26, 1996. Expressed as a percentage of net sales, cost of goods sold
improved to 73.7% for the three months ended September 26, 1997 from 75.5% for
the three months ended September 27, 1996. The decline in cost of goods sold as
a percentage of net sales was due primarily to a decline in raw material costs,
continued reductions in overhead costs and improved fixed cost absorption from
higher sales volumes.

Gross Profit as a result, increased to $9.9 million or 26.2% of net sales for
the three months ended September 26, 1997, from $8.6 million or 24.5% of net
sales for the same period in 1996.

Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased to $4.0 million or 10.7%
from $4.4 million or 12.6% due primarily to decreased administrative expense.

Operating profit increased to $5.9 million or 15.6% of net sales for the three
months ended September 26, 1997, from $4.2 or 12.0% for the same period in 1996,
for the reasons stated above.

Interest expense increased to $2.1 million or 5.6% of net sales for the three
months ended September 26, 1997, from $1.9 million or 5.4% of net sales for the
same period in 1996 due primarily to a restructuring of our debt from notes to
bonds.

Provision for income taxes increased to $1.4 million or 3.7% of net sales for
the three months ended September 26, 1997, from $.8 million or 2.2% for the same
period in 1996. The Company's effective tax rate was 38% for the three months
ended September 26, 1997. The increase between periods is due primarily to the
utilization of certain state tax carryover losses and credits in the first
quarter of fiscal year 1997.

Net income increased to $2.3 million or 6.1% of net sales for the three months
ended September 26, 1997, from $1.3 million or 3.6% of net sales for the same
period in 1996, for the same reasons discussed above.

New Accounting Pronouncements

In June 1997, SFAS 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income," and SFAS 131,
"Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information," were
issued. SFAS 130 addresses standards for reporting and display of comprehensive
income and its components and SFAS 131 requires disclosure of reportable
operating segments. Both statements are effective for the Company's 1999 fiscal
year. The Company will be reviewing these pronouncements to determine their
applicability to the Company, if any.
