CANANDAIGUA BRANDS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
MAY 31, 2000
1) MANAGEMENT'S REPRESENTATIONS:
The condensed consolidated financial statements included herein have been
prepared by Canandaigua Brands, Inc. and its subsidiaries (the "Company"),
without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and
Exchange Commission applicable to quarterly reporting on Form 10-Q and reflect,
in the opinion of the Company, all adjustments necessary to present fairly the
financial information for the Company. All such adjustments are of a normal
recurring nature. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included
in financial statements, prepared in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles, have been condensed or omitted as permitted by such rules
and regulations. These consolidated financial statements and related notes
should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and
related notes included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the
fiscal year ended February 29, 2000.
Certain February 29, 2000 balances have been reclassified to conform to
current year presentation.
2) ACQUISITIONS:
On April 9, 1999, in an asset acquisition, the Company acquired several
well-known Canadian whisky brands, including Black Velvet, production facilities
located in Alberta and Quebec, Canada, case goods and bulk whisky inventories
and other related assets from affiliates of Diageo plc (the "Black Velvet
Assets"). In connection with the transaction, the Company also entered into
multi-year agreements with affiliates of Diageo plc to provide packaging and
distilling services for various brands retained by the Diageo plc affiliates.
The purchase price was $183.6 million and was financed by the proceeds from the
sale of the Senior Subordinated Notes.
The Black Velvet Assets acquisition was accounted for using the purchase
method; accordingly, the acquired assets were recorded at fair market value at
the date of acquisition. The excess of the purchase price over the estimated
fair market value of the net assets acquired (goodwill), $36.0 million, is being
amortized on a straight-line basis over 40 years. The results of operations of
the Black Velvet Assets acquisition have been included in the Consolidated
Statements of Income since the date of acquisition.
On June 4, 1999, the Company purchased all of the outstanding capital stock
of Franciscan Vineyards, Inc. ("Franciscan Estates") and, in related
transactions, purchased vineyards, equipment and other vineyard related assets
located in Northern California (collectively, the "Franciscan Acquisition"). The
purchase price was $212.4 million in cash plus assumed debt, net of cash
acquired, of $30.8 million. The purchase price was financed primarily by
additional term loan borrowings under the senior credit facility. Also, on June
4, 1999, the Company acquired all of the outstanding capital stock of Simi
Winery, Inc. ("Simi") (the "Simi Acquisition"). The cash purchase price was
$57.5 million and was financed by revolving loan borrowings under the senior
credit facility. The purchases were accounted for using the purchase method;
accordingly, the acquired assets were recorded at fair market value at the date
of acquisition. The excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair market
value of the net assets acquired (goodwill) for the Franciscan Acquisition and
the Simi Acquisition, $118.3 million and $8.3 million, respectively, is being
amortized on a straight-line basis over 40 years. The Franciscan Estates and
Simi operations are managed together as a separate business segment of the
Company ("Franciscan").
<PAGE>
- 5 -
The results of operations of Franciscan have been included in the Consolidated
Statements of Income since the date of acquisition.
The following table sets forth the unaudited pro forma results of
operations of the Company for the three months ended May 31, 2000 and 1999. The
unaudited pro forma results of operations for the three months ended May 31,
1999, gives effect to the acquisitions of the Black Velvet Assets and Franciscan
as if they occurred on March 1, 1999. The unaudited pro forma results of
operations are presented after giving effect to certain adjustments for
depreciation, amortization of goodwill, interest expense on the acquisition
financing and related income tax effects. The unaudited pro forma results of
operations are based upon currently available information and upon certain
assumptions that the Company believes are reasonable under the circumstances.
The unaudited pro forma results of operations for the three months ended May 31,
1999, reflect total pretax nonrecurring charges of $12.4 million ($0.40 per
share on a diluted basis) related to transaction costs, primarily for exercise
of stock options, which were incurred by Franciscan Estates prior to the
acquisition. The unaudited pro forma results of operations do not purport to
present what the Company's results of operations would actually have been if the
aforementioned transactions had in fact occurred on such date or at the
beginning of the period indicated, nor do they project the Company's financial
position or results of operations at any future date or for any future period.

4) BORROWINGS:
SENIOR NOTES -
In March 2000, the Company exchanged (pound)75.0 million aggregate
principal amount of 8 1/2% Series B Senior Notes due in November 2009 (the
"Sterling Series B Senior Notes") for the Sterling Senior Notes. The terms of
the Sterling Series B Senior Notes are identical in all material respects to the
Sterling Senior Notes.
<PAGE>
- 6 -
In May 2000, the Company issued (pound)80.0 million (approximately $120.0
million) aggregate principal amount of 8 1/2% Series C Senior Notes due November
2009 at an issuance price of (pound)79.6 million (approximately $119.4 million,
net of $0.6 million unamortized discount, with an effective rate of 8.6%) (the
"Sterling Series C Senior Notes"). The net proceeds of the offering ((pound)78.8
million, or approximately $118.2 million) were used to repay a portion of the
Company's British pound sterling borrowings under its senior credit facility.
After this repayment, the required quarterly repayments of the Tranche II Term
Loan facility were revised to (pound)0.2 million ($0.3 million) for the
remaining three quarters in 2000, (pound)0.4 million ($0.6 million) for each
quarter in 2001 and 2002, (pound)0.5 million ($0.7 million) for each quarter in
2003, and (pound)8.5 million ($12.7 million) for each quarter in 2004. (The
foregoing U.S. dollar equivalents are as of May 31, 2000.) Interest on the
Sterling Series C Senior Notes is payable semiannually on May 15 and November 15
of each year, beginning on November 15, 2000. The Sterling Series C Senior Notes
are redeemable at the option of the Company, in whole or in part, at any time.
The Sterling Series C Senior Notes are unsecured senior obligations and rank
equally in right of payment to all existing and future unsecured senior
indebtedness of the Company. The Sterling Series C Senior Notes are guaranteed,
on a senior basis, by certain of the Company's significant operating
subsidiaries.
5) EARNINGS PER COMMON SHARE:
Basic earnings per common share exclude the effect of common stock
equivalents and are computed by dividing income available to common stockholders
by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period
for Class A Common Stock and Class B Convertible Common Stock. Diluted earnings
per common share reflect the potential dilution that could result if securities
or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common
stock. Diluted earnings per common share assume the exercise of stock options
using the treasury stock method and assume the conversion of convertible
securities, if any, using the "if converted" method.
The computation of basic and diluted earnings per common share is as
follows:
For the Three Months Ended May 31,
------------------------------------
2000 1999
---------------- ----------------
(in thousands, except per share data)
Income applicable to common shares $ 17,902 $ 10,846

================ ================
EARNINGS PER COMMON SHARE - BASIC $ 0.98 $ 0.60
================ ================
EARNINGS PER COMMON SHARE - DILUTED $ 0.96 $ 0.59
================ ================
Stock options to purchase 1.6 million and 0.8 million shares of Class A
Common Stock at a weighted average price of $52.06 and $51.86 were outstanding
during the three months ended May 31, 2000 and 1999, respectively, but were not
included in the computation of the diluted earnings per common share because the
stock options' exercise price was greater than the average market price of the
Class A Common Stock.

6) SUMMARIZED FINANCIAL INFORMATION - SUBSIDIARY GUARANTORS:
The following table presents summarized financial information for the
Company, the parent company, the combined subsidiaries of the Company which
guarantee the Company's senior notes and senior subordinated notes (the
"Subsidiary Guarantors") and the combined subsidiaries of the Company which are
not Subsidiary Guarantors, primarily Matthew Clark (the "Subsidiary
Nonguarantors"). The Subsidiary Guarantors are wholly owned and the guarantees
are full, unconditional, joint and several obligations of each of the Subsidiary
Guarantors. Separate financial statements for the Subsidiary Guarantors of the
Company are not presented because the Company has determined that such financial
statements would not be material to investors. The Subsidiary Guarantors
comprise all of the direct and indirect subsidiaries of the Company, other than
Matthew Clark, the Company's Canadian subsidiary and certain other subsidiaries
which individually, and in the aggregate, are inconsequential. There are no
restrictions on the ability of the Subsidiary Guarantors to transfer funds to
the Company in the form of cash dividends, loans or advances.

9) ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS:
In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 133 ("SFAS No. 133"), "Accounting for
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities." SFAS No. 133 establishes
accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments, including certain
derivative instruments embedded in other contracts (collectively referred to as
derivatives), and for hedging activities. SFAS No. 133 requires that every
derivative be recorded as either an asset or liability in the balance sheet and
measured at its fair value. SFAS No. 133 also requires that changes in the
derivative's fair value be recognized currently in earnings unless specific
hedge accounting criteria are met. Special accounting for qualifying hedges
allows a derivative's gains and losses to offset
<PAGE>
- 10 -
related results on the hedged item in the income statement, and requires that a
company formally document, designate and assess the effectiveness of
transactions that receive hedge accounting.
In June 1999, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 137 ("SFAS No. 137"), "Accounting for
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities--Deferral of the Effective Date of
FASB Statement No. 133." SFAS No. 137 delays the effective date of SFAS No. 133
for one year. With the issuance of SFAS No. 137, the Company is required to
adopt SFAS No. 133 on a prospective basis for interim periods and fiscal years
beginning March 1, 2001.
In June 2000, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 138 ("SFAS No. 138"), "Accounting for Certain
Derivative Instruments and Certain Hedging Activities--an amendment of FASB
Statement No. 133." SFAS No. 138 amends the accounting and reporting standards
of SFAS No. 133 for certain derivative instruments and certain hedging
activities. The Company is required to adopt SFAS No. 138 concurrently with SFAS
No. 133. The Company believes the effect of the adoption of these statements on
its financial statements will not be material based on the Company's current
risk management strategies.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
------- ------------------------------------------------------------------------
OF OPERATIONS
-------------
INTRODUCTION
------------
The following discussion and analysis summarizes the significant factors
affecting (i) consolidated results of operations of the Company for the three
months ended May 31, 2000 ("First Quarter 2001"), compared to the three months
ended May 31, 1999 ("First Quarter 2000"), and (ii) financial liquidity and
capital resources for First Quarter 2001. This discussion and analysis should be
read in conjunction with the Company's consolidated financial statements and
notes thereto included herein and in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K
for the fiscal year ended February 29, 2000 ("Fiscal 2000").
The Company operates primarily in the beverage alcohol industry in North
America and the United Kingdom. The Company reports its operating results in
five segments: Canandaigua Wine (branded popularly-priced wine and brandy, and
other, primarily grape juice concentrate); Barton (primarily beer and spirits);
Matthew Clark (branded wine, cider and bottled water, and wholesale wine, cider,
spirits, beer and soft drinks); Franciscan (primarily branded super-premium and
ultra-premium wine); and Corporate Operations and Other (primarily corporate
related items).
ACQUISITIONS IN FISCAL 2000
On June 4, 1999, the Company purchased all of the outstanding capital stock
of Franciscan Vineyards, Inc. ("Franciscan Estates") and, in related
transactions, purchased vineyards, equipment and other vineyard related assets
located in Northern California (collectively, the "Franciscan Acquisition").
Also on June 4, 1999, the Company purchased all of the outstanding capital stock
of Simi Winery, Inc. ("Simi"). (The acquisition of the capital stock of Simi is
hereafter referred to as the "Simi Acquisition".) The Simi Acquisition included
the Simi winery, equipment, vineyards, inventory and worldwide ownership of the
Simi brand name. The results of operations from the Franciscan and Simi
Acquisitions (collectively, "Franciscan") are reported together in the
Franciscan segment and have been included in the consolidated results of
operations of the Company since the date of acquisition. On February 29, 2000,
Simi was merged into Franciscan Estates.
On April 9, 1999, in an asset acquisition, the Company acquired several
well-known Canadian whisky brands, including Black Velvet, production facilities
located in Alberta and Quebec, Canada, case goods and bulk whisky inventories
and other related assets from affiliates of Diageo plc (collectively, the "Black
Velvet Assets"). In connection with the transaction, the Company also entered
into multi-year agreements with affiliates of Diageo plc to provide packaging
and distilling services for various brands retained by the Diageo plc
affiliates. The results of operations from the Black Velvet Assets are reported
in the Barton segment and have been included in the consolidated results of
operations of the Company since the date of acquisition.

============ ============
Net sales for First Quarter 2001 increased to $585.6 million from $530.2
million for First Quarter 2000, an increase of $55.4 million, or 10.5%.
<PAGE>
- 13 -
Canandaigua Wine
----------------
Net sales for Canandaigua Wine for First Quarter 2001 decreased to $162.4
million from $163.6 million for First Quarter 2000, a decrease of $1.2 million,
or (0.7)%. The decline resulted primarily from a decrease in grape juice
concentrate sales, while branded wine sales were unchanged against the
comparable quarter last year.
Barton
------
Net sales for Barton for First Quarter 2001 increased to $235.7 million
from $200.8 million for First Quarter 2000, an increase of $34.9 million, or
17.4%. This increase resulted primarily from volume growth and selling price
increases in the Mexican beer portfolio as well as from an increase of $11.3
million of sales of the newly acquired Canadian whisky brands, which was
completed in April 1999.
Matthew Clark
-------------
Net sales for Matthew Clark for First Quarter 2001 increased to $169.5
million from $166.8 million for First Quarter 2000, an increase of $2.7 million,
or 1.6%. This increase resulted primarily from increases in Matthew Clark's
wholesale business, partially offset by declines in Matthew Clark's branded
business.
Franciscan
----------
Net sales for Franciscan for First Quarter 2001 were $21.9 million.
GROSS PROFIT
The Company's gross profit increased to $183.9 million for First Quarter
2001 from $156.1 million for First Quarter 2000, an increase of $27.8 million,
or 17.8%. The dollar increase in gross profit was primarily related to sales
from the acquisitions of the Black Velvet Assets (completed in April 1999) and
Franciscan (completed in June 1999), as well as increased beer sales. As a
percent of net sales, gross profit increased to 31.4% for First Quarter 2001
from 29.4% in First Quarter 2000, resulting primarily from sales of
higher-margin spirits and super-premium and ultra-premium wine acquired in the
acquisitions of the Black Velvet Assets and Franciscan, respectively, and from
improved margins resulting from price increases in the Company's imported beer
business.
SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES
Selling, general and administrative expenses increased to $126.4 million
for First Quarter 2001 from $110.5 million for First Quarter 2000, an increase
of $15.9 million, or 14.4%. The dollar increase in selling, general and
administrative expenses resulted primarily from the addition of the Franciscan
business and expenses related to the brands acquired in the Black Velvet Assets
acquisition. Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percent of net
sales increased to 21.6% for First Quarter 2001 as compared to 20.8% for First
Quarter 2000. The increase in percent of net sales resulted primarily from the
acquisition of Franciscan, as Franciscan's selling, general and administrative
expenses as a percent of net sales are typically at the high end of the range of
the Company's operating segments' percentages.
<PAGE>
- 14 -
NONRECURRING CHARGES
The Company incurred nonrecurring charges of $5.5 million in First Quarter
2000 related to the closure of a cider production facility within the Matthew
Clark operating segment in the United Kingdom ($2.9 million) and to a management
reorganization within the Canandaigua Wine operating segment ($2.6 million). No
such charges were incurred in First Quarter 2001.
OPERATING INCOME
The following table sets forth the operating profit/(loss) (in thousands of
dollars) by operating segment of the Company for First Quarter 2001 and First
Quarter 2000.

Consolidated Operating Profit $ 57,464 $ 40,111 43.3%
============= =============
As a result of the above factors, consolidated operating income increased
to $57.5 million for First Quarter 2001 from $40.1 million for First Quarter
2000, an increase of $17.4 million, or 43.3%. Exclusive of the aforementioned
$2.6 million in nonrecurring charges, operating income for the Canandaigua Wine
operating segment decreased 2.3% in First Quarter 2001 from $8.2 million in
First Quarter 2000. Operating income for the Matthew Clark operating segment,
excluding the aforementioned nonrecurring charges of $2.9 million, increased
1.0% in the First Quarter 2001 from $10.3 million in the First Quarter 2000.
INTEREST EXPENSE, NET
Net interest expense increased to $27.6 million for First Quarter 2001 from
$22.0 million for First Quarter 2000, an increase of $5.6 million, or 25.4%. The
increase resulted primarily from additional interest expense associated with
borrowings related to the acquisition of Franciscan.
NET INCOME
As a result of the above factors, net income increased to $17.9 million for
First Quarter 2001 from $10.8 million for First Quarter 2000, an increase of
$7.1 million, or 65.1%.
For financial analysis purposes only, the Company's earnings before
interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA") for First Quarter 2001
were $75.8 million, an increase of $21.9 million over EBITDA of $53.9 million
for First Quarter 2000. EBITDA should not be construed as an alternative to
operating income or net cash flow from operating activities and should not be
construed as an indication of operating performance or as a measure of
liquidity.
<PAGE>

FINANCIAL LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
-----------------------------------------
GENERAL
The Company's principal use of cash in its operating activities is for
purchasing and carrying inventories. The Company's primary source of liquidity
has historically been cash flow from operations, except during the annual fall
grape harvests when the Company has relied on short-term borrowings. The annual
grape crush normally begins in August and runs through October. The Company
generally begins purchasing grapes in August with payments for such grapes
beginning to come due in September. The Company's short-term borrowings to
support such purchases generally reach their highest levels in November or
December. Historically, the Company has used cash flow from operating activities
to repay its short-term borrowings. The Company will continue to use its
short-term borrowings to support its working capital requirements. The Company
believes that cash provided by operating activities and its financing
activities, primarily short-term borrowings, will provide adequate resources to
satisfy its working capital, liquidity and anticipated capital expenditure
requirements for both its short-term and long-term capital needs.
FIRST QUARTER 2001 CASH FLOWS
OPERATING ACTIVITIES
Net cash provided by operating activities for First Quarter 2001 was $20.0
million, which resulted from $40.7 million in net income adjusted for noncash
items, less $20.7 million representing the net change in the Company's operating
assets and liabilities. The net change in operating assets and liabilities
resulted primarily from an increase in accounts receivable as a result of a
seasonal increase in sales, partially offset by an increase in accounts payable
and an increase in accrued excise taxes resulting from the increase in sales.
INVESTING ACTIVITIES AND FINANCING ACTIVITIES
Net cash used in investing activities for First Quarter 2001 was $9.9
million, which resulted primarily from capital expenditures of $10.3 million.
Net cash used in financing activities for First Quarter 2001 was $30.1
million resulting primarily from principal payments of $133.3 million and
repayment of $16.8 million of net revolving loan borrowings. These amounts were
partially offset by net proceeds of $118.2 million from the issuance of
(pound)80.0 million of 8 1/2% Sterling Series C Senior Notes used to repay a
portion of the Company's British pound sterling borrowings under its senior
credit facility.
DEBT
Total debt outstanding as of May 31, 2000, amounted to $1,272.2 million, a
decrease of $45.7 million from February 29, 2000. The ratio of total debt to
total capitalization decreased to 70.6% as of May 31, 2000, from 71.7% as of
February 29, 2000.
<PAGE>
- 16 -
SENIOR CREDIT FACILITY
As of May 31, 2000, under its senior credit facility, the Company had
outstanding term loans of $427.7 million bearing a weighted average interest
rate of 8.3%, $10.0 million of revolving loans bearing interest at 8.6%, undrawn
revolving letters of credit of $10.5 million, and $279.5 million in revolving
loans available to be drawn.
SENIOR NOTES
As of May 31, 2000, the Company had outstanding $200.0 million aggregate
principal amount of 8 5/8% Senior Notes due August 2006 (the "Senior Notes").
The Senior Notes are currently redeemable, in whole or in part, at the option of
the Company.
In March 2000, the Company exchanged (pound)75.0 million aggregate
principal amount of 8 1/2% Series B Senior Notes due in November 2009 (the
"Sterling Series B Senior Notes") for the Sterling Senior Notes. The terms of
the Sterling Series B Senior Notes are identical in all material respects to the
Sterling Senior Notes.
In May 2000, the Company issued (pound)80.0 million (approximately $120.0
million) aggregate principal amount of 8 1/2% Series C Senior Notes due November
2009 at an issuance price of (pound)79.6 million (approximately $119.4 million,
net of $0.6 million unamortized discount, with an effective rate of 8.6%) (the
"Sterling Series C Senior Notes"). The net proceeds of the offering ((pound)78.8
million, or approximately $118.2 million) were used to repay a portion of the
Company's British pound sterling borrowings under its senior credit facility.
After this repayment, the required quarterly repayments of the Tranche II Term
Loan facility were revised to (pound)0.2 million ($0.3 million) for the
remaining three quarters in 2000, (pound)0.4 million ($0.6 million) for each
quarter in 2001 and 2002, (pound)0.5 million ($0.7 million) for each quarter in
2003, and (pound)8.5 million ($12.7 million) for each quarter in 2004. (The
foregoing U.S. dollar equivalents are as of May 31, 2000.) Interest on the
Sterling Series C Senior Notes is payable semiannually on May 15 and November 15
of each year, beginning on November 15, 2000. The Sterling Series C Senior Notes
are redeemable at the option of the Company, in whole or in part, at any time.
The Sterling Series C Senior Notes are unsecured senior obligations and rank
equally in right of payment to all existing and future unsecured senior
indebtedness of the Company. The Sterling Series C Senior Notes are guaranteed,
on a senior basis, by certain of the Company's significant operating
subsidiaries.
SENIOR SUBORDINATED NOTES
As of May 31, 2000, the Company had outstanding $195.0 million aggregate
principal amount of 8 3/4% Senior Subordinated Notes due December 2003 (the
"Original Notes"). The Original Notes are currently redeemable, in whole or in
part, at the option of the Company.
Also, as of May 31, 2000, the Company had outstanding $200.0 million
aggregate principal amount of 8 1/2% Senior Subordinated Notes due March 2009
(the "Senior Subordinated Notes"). The Senior Subordinated Notes are redeemable
at the option of the Company, in whole or in part, at any time on or after March
1, 2004. The Company may also redeem up to $70.0 million of the Senior
Subordinated Notes using the proceeds of certain equity offerings completed
before March 1, 2002.

ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 133 ("SFAS No. 133"), "Accounting for
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities." SFAS No. 133 establishes
accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments, including certain
derivative instruments embedded in other contracts (collectively referred to as
derivatives), and for hedging activities. SFAS No. 133 requires that every
derivative be recorded as either an asset or liability in the balance sheet and
measured at its fair value. SFAS No. 133 also requires that changes in the
derivative's fair value be recognized currently in earnings unless specific
hedge accounting criteria are met. Special accounting for qualifying hedges
allows a derivative's gains and losses to offset related results on the hedged
item in the income statement, and requires that a company formally document,
designate and assess the effectiveness of transactions that receive hedge
accounting.
In June 1999, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 137 ("SFAS No. 137"), "Accounting for
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities--Deferral of the Effective Date of
FASB Statement No. 133." SFAS No. 137 delays the effective date of SFAS No. 133
for one year. With the issuance of SFAS No. 137, the Company is required to
adopt SFAS No. 133 on a prospective basis for interim periods and fiscal years
beginning March 1, 2001.
In June 2000, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 138 ("SFAS No. 138"), "Accounting for Certain
Derivative Instruments and Certain Hedging Activities--an amendment of FASB
Statement No. 133." SFAS No. 138 amends the accounting and reporting standards
of SFAS No. 133 for certain derivative instruments and certain hedging
activities. The Company is required to adopt SFAS No. 138 concurrently with SFAS
No. 133. The Company believes the effect of the adoption of these statements on
its financial statements will not be material based on the Company's current
risk management strategies.
EURO CONVERSION ISSUES
Effective January 1, 1999, eleven of the fifteen member countries of the
European Union (the "Participating Countries") established fixed conversion
rates between their existing sovereign currencies and the euro. For three years
after the introduction of the euro, the Participating Countries can perform
financial transactions in either the euro or their original local currencies.
This will result in a fixed exchange rate among the Participating Countries,
whereas the euro (and the Participating Countries' currency in tandem) will
continue to float freely against the U.S. dollar and other currencies of the
non-participating countries. The Company does not believe that the effects of
the conversion will have a material adverse effect on the Company's business and
operations.
