                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


NOTE 1 - ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The accompanying unaudited financial statements reflect all adjustments which
are, in the opinion of management, necessary to fairly present the results for
the interim periods presented and should be read in conjunction with the
Company's 1995 Annual Report.

NOTE 2 - PRO FORMA OPERATING RESULTS

On June 30, 1995, Prideco, Inc. ("Prideco"), a majority-owned subsidiary of the
Company, merged with Grant Acquisition Company, a wholly-owned subsidiary of
Energy Ventures, Inc. ("EVI").  In the merger, the Company's shares of Prideco
were converted into 1,035,858 shares of Common Stock, $1.00 par value, of EVI.
EVI's common stock is listed and traded on the New York Stock Exchange
(NYSE:EVI).   Accordingly, the individual accounts of Prideco have been
eliminated from the Company's June 30, 1995 Balance Sheet which reflects the
effect of the merger.  Prideco's results of operations are included in the
Company's Consolidated Statement of Earnings through June 30, 1995, the date of
the merger.  Concurrently with the merger, the Company acquired an additional
912,873 shares of EVI common stock directly from EVI and the minority
shareholders of Prideco for an aggregate cash price of $13,291,000.

The investment in EVI is classified as "available for sale". Investment
securities classified as available for sale at September 30, 1995 are carried
at fair value with fair value adjustments, net of their related income tax
effects, reported as a component of shareholders' equity.

The following summarizes the unaudited consolidated pro forma operating results
of the Company as if the merger of Prideco, Inc. had occurred as of July 1,
1994 the beginning of the periods.

ITEM 2
               MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL

                      CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Operations

Christiana Companies consolidated revenues for the three months ended September
30, 1995 were $19,397,000 versus $32,069,000 reported for the comparable period
a year ago.  Revenues were lower this period due to the completed merger of
Prideco with a unit of Energy Ventures, Inc.  (NYSE:EVI) on June 30, 1995.
Revenues attributable to Warehousing, Rental and Logistic services increased 4%
to $19,937,000 in the first quarter fiscal 1996 compared with $19,169,000 for
the same period last year.  Revenue growth this quarter within this segment
occurred at The TLC Group aided by increased warehousing capacity and marketing
efforts directed at building dedicated transportation volume.  Revenues at
Wiscold were lower by 4% due to reduced vegetable freezing volume resulting
from poor regional growing conditions this season.

Operating earnings for the quarter were $2,053,000 versus $3,973,000 generated
in the comparable period a year ago.  The reduction in operating earnings is
primarily attributable to the absence of Prideco's operations this quarter and
to a lesser extent reduced vegetable freezing volume at Wiscold.

Sales of 14 condominium homes were completed in the first quarter of fiscal
1996 which generated a pretax gain of $840,000 compared with sales of 20 homes
in the same period last year which contributed pretax earnings of $1,437,000.

Consolidated net earnings for the quarter were $1,394,000 or $0.27 per share
compared with $2,515,000 or $0.46 per share for the same period a year ago.
Net earnings were lower this period due to six fewer home sales, reduced
vegetable freezing volume, the absence of Prideco's operations due to its
merger and reduced interest income resulting from the use of $13.3 million of
interest earning short-term investments to fund the purchase of 912,873 shares
of Energy Ventures, Inc. in connection with the Prideco transaction.

Financial Condition

Cash equivalents and short term investments totaled $4,309,000 as of September
30, 1995 compared with $3,197,000 at June 30, 1995, an increase of $1,112,000.
Cash provided by operating activities of $2,907,000 was attributable primarily
to net earnings, depreciation, amortization and deferred taxes.  Cash used in
investing activities of $985,000 resulted from capital expenditures of
$1,830,000 primarily attributable to warehousing and logistics operations and
an increase of $1,293,000 in short term investments offset by proceeds from
asset sales, primarily real estate, of $2,273,000 in this year's first fiscal
quarter.

On September 30, 1995, Christiana held for investment 1,948,731 shares of EVI
which represented approximately a 10.5% ownership interest.  On September 30,
1995 EVI's share price was $23.25 giving Christiana's holdings a market value
of $45,308,000.  Unrealized appreciation of this investment, before tax,
increased $10,231,000 in the quarter to $13,449,000 as of September 30, 1995.
At quarter end, unrealized investment gain, net of tax totaled $8,128,000.

Christiana's operating units have capital commitments to construct new
distribution oriented warehousing capacity.  Wiscold is constructing a new 3.5
million cubic foot refrigerated distribution center in Rochelle, Illinois with
an expected cost of $11.5 million.  The new facility is being built on company
owned property at the site of its existing 10.6 million cubic foot refrigerated
distribution center.  This facility is expected to be completed and operational
in the fourth quarter of fiscal 1996.

The TLC Group is expanding its newest dry distribution center in Zeeland,
Michigan by 106,000 sq. ft. When completed during the third quarter of fiscal
1996, this facility will total 220,000 sq. ft. of dry distribution capacity.
Construction costs of this expansion are expected to be $2.3 million.

The construction of these facilities is expected to be funded primarily by
subsidiary issued term debt.
