NOTE 4 - CONTINGENCIES

       (a) In January 1993 and 1994, the Company's Belgian subsidiary received
       income tax assessments aggregating approximately $1,782 (75,247 Belgian
       Francs) for the disallowance of certain foreign tax credits and
       investment losses claimed for the years ended July 31, 1990 and 1991.
       Additionally, in January 1995, the subsidiary received an income tax
       assessment of approximately $760 (32,083 Belgian Francs) for the year
       ended July 31, 1992. By Belgian law, these assessments are capped at the
       values above and do not continue to accrue additional penalties or
       interest. Although the future outcome of these matters is uncertain, the
       Company believes that its tax position was appropriate and that the
       assessments are without merit. Therefore, the Company has appealed the
       assessments. Based on advice of legal counsel in Belgium, the Company
       believes that the assessment appeals will be accepted by the tax
       authorities in Belgium, although there can be no assurance whether or
       when such appeals will be accepted.

       (b) The Company is a party to various other legal proceedings arising in
       the normal conduct of business. Management believes that the final
       outcome of these proceedings will not have a material adverse effect on
       the Company's financial position.

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

THIRD QUARTER OF FISCAL 2000 COMPARED WITH THE THIRD  QUARTER OF FISCAL 1999

Net Sales increased to $138.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2000
from $129.8 million for the three months ended April 2, 1999. This represents an
increase of $9.1 million or 7.0%. The increase was due primarily to the
acquisition of Tri-Seal International in January 1999 and Natvar in April 1999,
and growth in the Consumer Packaging and Products business segment. The
increase from these factors was partially offset by actions related to the
restructuring of acquired operations such as the elimination in fiscal 2000 of
low-margin sales in certain acquired businesses.

Cost of Sales increased to $100.9 million for the three months ended March 31,
2000 from $92.1 million for the three months ended April 2, 1999. Expressed as a
percentage of net sales, cost of sales increased to 72.6% for the three months
ended March 31, 2000 from 71.0% for the three months ended April 2, 1999. The
primary cause of the increase was higher raw material costs. While the Company
passes on most of these cost increases to its customers, there is usually
a time lag between receiving a material cost increase and passing this cost
through in the form of higher selling prices. The time lag problem is
aggravated in the Consumer Packaging  and Products segment where prices to
customers in garden hose, which is the  largest business unit in that segment,
are set in the fall of the year for the  following twelve months.

Gross Profit, as a result, increased to $38.0 million for the three months ended
March 31, 2000 from $37.7 million for the three months ended April 2, 1999.
Expressed as a ratio to net sales, gross profit declined from 29.0% in the three
months ended April 2, 1999 to 27.4% in the three months ended March 31, 2000.

Selling, general, and administrative expense declined to $14.0 million or 10.1%
of net sales for the three months ended March 31, 2000 from $16.4 million or
12.6% of net sales for the three months ended April 2, 1999 due to efficiencies
realized from integration of the Tri-Seal and Natvar operations, and to
adjustments to certain benefits accruals.

Operating profit increased to $24.0 million or 17.3% of net sales for the three
months ended March 31, 2000 from $21.3 million or 16.4% of net sales for the
three months ended April 2, 1999, for the reasons discussed above.

Interest expense increased moderately to $10.2 million or 7.3% of net sales for
the three months ended March 31, 2000 from $9.9 million or 7.6% of net sales for
the same period in the prior year. This was due primarily to an increase in the
revolving line of credit incurred to acquire Tri-Seal International and Natvar,
higher interest rates, and an increase in inventories in Consumer Packaging and
Products to support the higher sales in that business segment.

Provision for income taxes increased to $6.7 million or 4.8% of net sales for
the three months ended March 31, 2000 from $5.4 million or 4.2% of net sales for
the same period in the prior year. The Company's effective tax rate was 48.8%
for the three months ended March 31, 2000 compared to 48.0% for the same period
in the prior year.

Net income increased to $7.0 million or 5.1% of net sales for the three months
ended March 31, 2000 from $5.8 million or 4.5% of net sales for the same period
in the prior year, for the reasons discussed above.


                                                                              14

FIRST NINE MONTHS OF FISCAL 2000 COMPARED WITH THE FIRST NINE MONTHS OF FISCAL
1999

Net Sales increased to $351.2 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2000
from $331.8 million for the nine months ended April 2, 1999. This represented an
increase of $19.4 million or 5.8%. The increase was due primarily to the
acquisition of Tri-Seal International in January 1999 and Natvar in April 1999,
and growth in the Consumer, Healthcare, and Food business segments. The
increase from these factors was partially offset by actions related to the
restructuring of acquired operations such as the elimination in fiscal 2000
of low-margin sales in certain acquired businesses.

Cost of Sales increased to $256.7 million for the nine months ended March 31,
2000 from $242.2 million for the nine months ended April 2, 1999. Expressed as a
percentage of net sales, cost of sales was stable at 73.1% for the nine months
ended March 31, 2000 versus 73.0% for the first nine months ended April 2, 1999.
The primary cause of the increase was higher raw materials costs in the nine
months ended March 31, 2000 from the nine months ended April 2, 1999.

Gross Profit, as a result, increased to $94.5 million for the nine months ended
March 31, 2000 from $89.6 million for the nine months ended April 2, 1999, and
the ratio of gross profit to net sales remained stable at 26.9% of net sales for
the nine months ended March 31, 2000 compared with 27.0% for the nine months
ended April 2, 1999.

Selling, general, and administrative expense declined to $43.0 million for the
nine months ended March 31, 2000 from $44.9 million for the nine months ended
April 2,1999. As a ratio to net sales, selling, general, and administrative
expense declined to 12.2% for the nine months ended March 31, 2000 from 13.5%
for the nine months ended April 2, 1999 due to higher sales for the current
period and efficiencies realized from integration of the Tri-Seal and Natvar
operations.

Operating profit increased to $51.5 million or 14.7% of net sales for the nine
months ended March 31, 2000 from $44.7 million or 13.5% for the nine months
ended April 2, 1999 for the reasons discussed above.

Interest expense increased to $29.7 million or 8.5% of net sales for the nine
months ended March 31, 2000 from $28.9 million or 8.7% of net sales for the same
period in the prior year due primarily to an increase in the revolving line of
credit incurred to acquire Tri-Seal International and Natvar and to higher
interest rates.

Provision for income taxes increased to $10.3 million or 2.9% of net sales for
the nine months ended March 31, 2000 from $7.3 million or 2.2% of net sales for
the same period in the prior year. The Company's effective tax rate was 48.9%
for the nine months ended March 31, 2000 compared to 48.0% for the same period
in the prior year.

Net income increased to $10.8 million or 3.1% of net sales for the nine months
ended March 31, 2000 from $7.9 million or 2.4% of net sales for the same period
in the prior year, for the reasons discussed above.


                                                                              15

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

For the nine months ended March 31, 2000, net cash used by operating activities
was $20.6 million compared to $11.1 million for the same period in the prior
year for an increased usage of $9.4 million. The increase was due to higher
inventories in Consumer Packaging and Products to accommodate a higher sales
level in that business segment, and a reduction in accrued expenses and
liabilities. Various year-over-year changes in operating assets, accrued
expenses, and liabilities are generally due to offsetting timing differences.

Working capital at March 31, 2000 was $148.8 million compared to $101.4 million
at July 2, 1999. The increase was due primarily to higher inventories in
Consumer Packaging and Products to support the increased level of sales and the
highly seasonal nature of that business segment. Approximately 75% of the annual
sales in garden hose, which is the largest business unit in that segment, occur
in the spring and early summer months.

As of March 31, 2000, the Company had an outstanding balance of $54.0 million
under the $90 million revolving credit line of the existing credit facility.
This was an increase of $32.0 million from the outstanding balance as of July 2,
1999, and was due primarily to normal seasonal requirements of the Consumer
Packaging and Products business segment.

The Company's capital expenditures for the nine months ended March 31, 2000 and
April 2, 1999 were $11.2 million, and $10.0 million, respectively. Management
expects that annual capital expenditures will increase somewhat from historical
levels during the next few years as the Company makes improvements in the
recently acquired operations.

Apart from acquisitions, the Company's principal uses of cash will be debt
service, capital expenditures and working capital requirements. Management
believes that cash generated from operations plus funds from the credit facility
will be sufficient to meet the Company's expected debt service requirements,
planned capital expenditures, and operating needs. However, there can be no
assurance that sufficient funds will be available from operations or borrowings
under the credit facility to meet the Company's cash needs to the extent
management anticipates. The credit facility will provide the Company with the
increased flexibility to make capital expenditures and acquisitions that
management believes will provide an attractive return on investment. To the
extent the Company pursues future acquisitions, the Company may be required to
obtain additional financing. There can be no assurance that it will be able to
obtain such financing in amounts and on terms acceptable to it.



ITEM 3:   QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

The Company is subject to market risk inherent in certain debt instruments. At
March 31, 2000, the principal amount of the Company's aggregate outstanding
variable rate indebtedness was $162.7 million. A hypothetical 10% adverse change
in interest rates would have an annualized unfavorable impact of approximately
$0.9 million on the Company's after-tax earnings and cash flows, assuming the
Company's current effective tax rate and assuming no change in the principal
amount. Conversely, a reduction in interest rates would favorably impact the
Company's after-tax earnings and cash flows, in a similar proportion.


                                                                              16

PART II.  OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1.  Legal Proceedings

         The Company is party to certain litigation in the ordinary course of
         business, none of which the Company believes is likely to have a
         material adverse effect on its consolidated financial position or
         results of operations.

Item 2.  Changes in Securities

         None

Item 3.  Defaults Upon Senior Securities

         None

Item 4.  Submission of Matters to a Vote of Securities Holders

         Not applicable

Item 5.  Other Information

         In order to provide liquidity to certain investors in the Company's
         sole stockholder, the Company has agreed to pursue a recapitalization
         of the Company. The Company currently anticipates completing the
         recapitalization before the end of fiscal year 2000. The
         recapitalization is subject to various contingencies, including the
         availability of sufficient debt and equity financing on terms
         acceptable to the Company and certain of its principal investors, and
         approval by various investors in the Company. Although there can be no
         assurance that the proposed recapitalization will be consummated at all
         or without delay, the Company currently contemplates that substantially
         all of the Company's current outstanding indebtedness will be
         refinanced as part of the proposed recapitalization of the Company.
