NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
(IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT SHARE AND PER SHARE DATA)
1. FINANCIAL INFORMATION
The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements
of Syratech Corporation and Subsidiaries (the "Company") have been prepared
pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Accordingly, certain information normally included in consolidated financial
statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles
have been condensed or omitted. These interim condensed consolidated financial
statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial
statements and notes included in the Company's 1999 Annual Report on Form 10 -
K. Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the 2000
presentation.
In the opinion of management, the interim condensed consolidated financial
statements reflect all adjustments, which consist only of normal and recurring
adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of the interim periods. The
results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of
the results of operations to be expected for the full year.

4. INCOME TAXES
The benefit for income taxes for the three and nine month periods ended
September 30, 2000 and 1999 have been computed using the estimated effective
full year tax rate of 25%. Realization of the income tax benefit is dependent
upon generating sufficient future taxable income. Although realization is not
assured, management believes it is more likely than not that the income tax
benefit will be realized through future taxable earnings.
5. REVOLVING LOAN FACILITIES AND NOTES PAYABLE
As of August 23, 2000, the Company's C.J. Vander Ltd subsidiary renewed its L250
overdraft facility. The renewed facility expires on February 18, 2001.

======= ====== ======= =======
</TABLE>
Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) reported in the Condensed
Consolidated Balance Sheets consists only of foreign currency translation
adjustments.
7. ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standard ("SFAS") No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities," effective for all fiscal quarters of fiscal
years beginning after June 15, 2000. The new standard requires that all
companies record derivatives on the balance sheet as assets or liabilities,
measured at fair value. Gains or losses resulting from changes in the values of
those derivatives would be accounted for depending on the use of the derivative
and whether it qualifies for hedge accounting. The Company will adopt SFAS No.
133 as required in the first quarter of 2001 and does not expect that such
adoption will have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.
In December 1999, the Securities and Exchange Commission issued Staff Accounting
Bulletin ("SAB") No. 101, "Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements." SAB No.
101 provides guidance on applying generally accepted accounting principles to
revenue recognition issues in financial statements. The Company will adopt SAB
No. 101 as required in the fourth quarter of 2000 and does not expect that such
adoption will have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

purchased $11,700 of its outstanding Senior Notes on the open market. An
extraordinary gain net of applicable taxes of approximately $2,552 will be
recorded in the fourth quarter.
10. SUPPLEMENTAL CONDENSED CONSOLIDATING FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The following supplemental condensed consolidating financial statements as of
September 30, 2000 and 1999 present separate financial information for the
Company ("Issuer/Guarantor Parent"), the Guarantor Subsidiaries, and the
Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries. Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to
conform with the 2000 presentation. Separate financial statements of each
guarantor are not presented because management believes that such statements
would not be materially different from the information presented herein.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2000 COMPARED TO THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER
30, 1999
Net sales increased 6.4% to $119.8 million for the three months ended September
30, 2000 from $112.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 1999. This
increase is primarily due to increased sales of housewares products reflecting
strong demand for the Company's flatware fountains, lighting, and stainless
steel and sterling flatware. Changes in normal product prices did not materially
impact net sales.
Gross profit increased 14.0% to $36.3 million for the three months ended
September 30, 2000 from $31.9 million for the three months ended September 30,
1999. Gross profit as a percentage of sales was 30.3% for the 2000 third quarter
compared to 28.3% for the comparable 1999 period. The 2.0 point gross profit
percentage increase reflects favorable product mix compared with the prior
period.
Selling, general and administrative expenses ("S, G & A expenses") of $21.1
million increased slightly to 17.6% as a percentage of net sales for the three
months ended September 30, 2000 from 17.1% or $19.2 million for the comparable
period ended September 30, 1999. The $1.9 million increase reflects increased
investment in product development, information technology, and sales and
marketing staff, including increased expenses related to the Company's expanded
sales presence in Europe, and expenses related to the growth in sales volume.
Income from operations was $15.7 million and $13.5 million for the third quarter
of 2000 and 1999, respectively, and included other operating income of $.4
million and $.9 million in 2000 and 1999, respectively. The decrease in other
operating income reflects lower Farberware license revenue.
Interest expense was $6.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2000
compared to $6.5 million in the comparable period of 1999. This decrease results
from lower borrowings as a result of cash received from the sale of the
Company's Revere, MA property in November, 1999, partially offset by an increase
in the bank's prime lending rate.
The provision for income taxes was $2.3 million for the three months ended
September 30, 2000 compared to $1.8 million for the three months ended September
30, 1999. The effective income tax rate was 25% for both periods.
15
<PAGE>
Net income applicable to common stockholders for the three month periods ended
in September 30, 2000 and 1999 was $6.3 million and $4.6 million, respectively,
or $1.66 and $1.22 per basic and diluted share, respectively, on adjusted
weighted average shares of 3,784,018 in both periods.
NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2000 COMPARED TO NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30,
1999
Net sales increased 12.6% to $222.3 million for the nine months ended September
30, 2000 from $197.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 1999. This
increase reflects the continued strong demand for housewares products designed
by the Company including fountains, stainless steel flatware, lighting, candles
and accessories. Giftware sales also increased versus the prior year including
sales of licensed giftware to specialty retailers. The Company is continuing to
sell off discontinued product to improve the quality of its inventory. Changes
in normal product prices did not materially impact net sales.
Gross profit increased 12.2% to $63.6 million for the nine months ended
September 30, 2000 from $56.7 million for the nine months ended September 30,
1999. Gross profit as a percentage of sales was 28.6% for the nine month period
of 2000 compared to 28.7% for the comparable 1999 period. The small decrease in
percentage gross profit reflects favorable product mix more than offset by the
impact of low margins experienced on the sale of discontinued product. The
change in gross profit as a percentage of sales was not materially impacted by
change in normal product pricing.
Selling, general and administrative expenses of $ 55.8 million was 25.1% as a
percentage of net sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 compared
with 25.4% or $50.1 million for the comparable 1999 period. The $5.7 million
increase in S,G & A expenses reflects higher commissions, royalties, and
advertising related to the increased sales volume and investment in additional
sales, marketing and product development staff to drive future sales growth.
Spending for information technology and expenses related to the Company's
expanded European product offering were also higher compared with the prior
year.
Income from operations was $9.2 million and $8.7 million for the first nine
months of 2000 and 1999, respectively, and included other operating income of
$1.3 million and $2.2 million in 2000 and 1999, respectively. The decrease in
other operating income is due to decreased Farberware license revenue.
Interest expense was $17.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2000
compared to $18.2 million in the same period of 1999. This decrease results from
lower borrowings as a result of cash received from the sale of the Company's
Revere, MA property in November, 1999, partially offset by increases in the
bank's prime lending rate.
The benefit for income taxes was $2.0 million for the nine months ended
September 30, 2000 compared to $2.2 million for the nine months ended September
30, 1999. The effective income tax rate was 25% for both periods.
Net loss applicable to common stockholders for the nine month periods ended in
September 30, 2000 and 1999 was $8.3 million and $8.4 million, respectively, or
$2.20 and $2.23, respectively, per basic and diluted share, on adjusted weighted
average shares of 3,784,018 in both periods.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Net cash used in operating activities for the nine months ended September 30,
2000 was $51.1 million, a $1.7 million increase from the $49.4 million used
during the nine months ended September 30, 1999. The major uses of cash were for
the normal seasonal increase in inventories and accounts receivable. Inventories
at September 30, 2000 were higher compared with the same period in the prior
year due to a temporary build-up to support the significant increase in customer
orders scheduled and successfully shipped in October.
The Company's working capital requirements are seasonal and tend to be highest
in the period from September through November due to the Christmas selling
season. Accounts receivable tend to decline during December and the first
quarter as receivables generated during the third and fourth quarters are
collected, and remain lower until the next peak season beginning in September.
16
<PAGE>
Capital expenditures were $4.8 million for the nine months ended September 30,
2000 and the Company expects to spend approximately $2.2 million during the
remainder of 2000. These expenditures relate primarily to computer equipment and
systems for the Company's East Boston office facility, relocation of the
Company's Revere, MA warehouse facility, and machinery, equipment and tools and
dies for the Company's manufacturing and distribution facilities.
Availability under the Revolving Credit Facility, net of outstanding letters of
credit, was $37.2 million at September 30, 2000. The Company is in compliance
with the covenants of the Revolving Credit Facility as of September 30, 2000 and
for the quarter then ended.
On July 31, 2000, the Company renewed its Wallace International de Puerto Rico,
Inc. $1 million credit facility. The renewed facility expires on May 31, 2001
and bears interest at a rate equal to, at the Company's option, the Eurodollar
Rate plus 175 basis points or the bank's Prime Rate less 25 basis points.
Availability under the facility was approximately $257 at September 30, 2000.
As of August 23, 2000, the Company's C.J. Vander Ltd subsidiary renewed its L250
overdraft facility. The renewed facility expires on February 18, 2001.
Availability under the facility was approximately L46 at September 30, 2000.
The Notes become due April 15, 2007 and interest payments are made
semi-annually on April 15 and October 15. The Notes are redeemable in whole
or in part, at the Company's option, after April 15, 2002. On August 24, 2000
the Company obtained consent from the lenders under its Revolving Credit
Facility to purchase Notes for an aggregate purchase price not to exceed $12
million. In October and November 2000, the Company, through a wholly-owned
subsidiary, purchased an aggregate of $11,700 of its outstanding Notes on the
open market, resulting in an extraordinary gain, net of applicable taxes, of
approximately $2,552 which will be recorded in the fourth quarter. The
Company may from time to time in the future repurchase additional Notes on
the open market as may be allowed under the terms of its Revolving Credit
Facility and the terms of its Senior Notes Indenture.
The Company's ability to pay dividends is restricted by the terms of the
Revolving Credit Facility and the Note Indenture.
Dividends on shares of Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock are cumulative from
the date of issue and are payable when and as may be declared from time to time
by the Board of Directors of the Company. Such dividends accrue on a daily basis
(whether or not declared) from the original date of issue at an annual rate per
share equal to 12% of the original purchase price per share, with such amount to
be compounded annually on each December 31 so that if the dividend is not paid
for any year the unpaid amount will be added to the original purchase price of
the Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock for the purpose of calculating
succeeding years' dividends.
The Company's level of indebtedness has several effects on its future
operations, including (i) a substantial portion of the Company's cash flow from
operations must be dedicated to the payment of interest on its indebtedness and
will not be available for other purposes, (ii) covenants contained in the
Revolving Credit Facility and the indenture governing the Notes require the
Company to meet certain financial tests, and other restrictions may limit its
ability to borrow funds or to dispose of assets and may affect the Company's
flexibility in planning for, and reacting to, changes in its business including
possible acquisition activities, and (iii) the Company's ability to obtain
additional financing in the future for working capital, capital expenditures,
acquisitions, general corporate purposes or other purposes may be impaired.
The Company believes that funds generated from operations and borrowings
available under the Revolving Credit Facility will be sufficient to finance the
Company's working capital requirements, provide for all known obligations of the
Company (including the Notes and under its operating leases) and fund planned
capital expenditures through December 31, 2000.

ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standard ("SFAS") No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities," effective for all fiscal quarters of fiscal
years beginning after June 15, 2000. The new standard requires that all
companies record derivatives on the balance sheet as assets or liabilities,
measured at fair value. Gains or losses resulting from changes in the values of
those derivatives would be accounted for depending on the use of the derivative
and whether it qualifies for hedge accounting. The Company will adopt SFAS No.
133 as required in the first quarter of 2001 and does not expect that such
adoption will have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.
In December 1999, the Securities and Exchange Commission issued Staff Accounting
Bulletin ("SAB") No. 101, "Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements." SAB No.
101 provides guidance on applying generally accepted accounting principles to
revenue recognition issues in financial statements. The Company will adopt SAB
No. 101 as required in the fourth quarter of 2000 and does not expect that such
adoption will have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

SYRATECH CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
The Company is exposed to interest rate risk primarily through its borrowing
activities. The Company's short-term borrowings are substantially all
denominated in U.S. dollars and bear interest at variable rates primarily based
on either a prime rate or the London Interbank Offering Rate ("LIBOR"). The
effect of a 10% change in the prime or LIBOR rate would not have a material
impact on the Company's financial results. The Company also has fixed debt
financing of $165 million of 11% Senior Notes due April 15, 2007 that had a
current market value of $99.0 million at September 30, 2000 based upon recent
private market trades. There is inherent roll-over risk for these borrowings
as they mature and are renewed at current market rates. The extent of this risk
is not quantifiable or predictable because of the variability of future interest
rates and the Company's future financing requirements. Currently, the Company
does not enter into financial instruments transactions for trading or other
speculative purposes or to manage interest rate exposure and does not have
investments in debt or equity securities.
The Company transacts sales and purchases primarily in U.S. Dollars and
maintains minimum cash balances denominated in foreign currencies. The Company
does not enter into foreign currency hedge transactions. Through December 31,
1999, foreign currency fluctuations have not had a material impact on the
Company's consolidated financial position or results of operations or cash flows
in any one year and the Company does not believe that its exposure to foreign
currency rate fluctuations is material.
