                   Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements


Note 1     In the opinion of the Company, the accompanying consolidated
           financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of only
           normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the
           consolidated financial position as of September 30, 1997, and the
           consolidated results of operations and cash flows for the three month
           periods ended September 30, 1997 and 1996.

           While the Company believes that the disclosures presented are
           adequate to make the information not misleading, it is suggested that
           these condensed financial statements be read in conjunction with the
           financial statements and the notes included in the Company's latest
           annual report on Form 10-K.

           Earnings per share are based on the average number of common shares
           outstanding during each period, assuming exercise of all stock
           options having exercise prices less than the average market price of
           the common stock using the treasury stock method. Common stock and
           common stock equivalents amounted to 7,004,705 and 6,964,705 for the
           three month periods ended September 30, 1997 and 1996, respectively.

Note 2     The accompanying financial statements include the accounts of PVC
           Container Corporation and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Novatec
           Plastics Corporation, Airopak Corporation ("Airopak") and PVC
           Container International Sales Corporation, a foreign sales company
           incorporated in the U.S. Virgin Islands on March 1, 1993. All
           intercompany accounts have been eliminated.

Note 3     Excluded from the consolidated statements of cash flows for the
           three months ended September 30, 1997 and 1996 was the effect of
           certain noncash financing activities related to the $3.5 million loan
           from GE Capital obtained by the Company in April 1997 and the $5.5
           million South Carolina EDA loan obtained by the Company in April
           1996. Capital expenditures in connection with this agreement totaled
           approximately $498,000 and $1,019,000 for the three months ended
           September 30, 1997 and 1996, respectively.

           FASB Statement No. 128 Earnings Per Share, effective for periods

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations


RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Net sales for the three month period ended September 30, 1997 were $15,313,000
as compared to $13,131,000 for the three month period ended September 30, 1996,
representing approximately a 16.6% increase. The increase in revenue during the
current three month period was due to a general improvement and demand for
plastic bottles and compounds throughout the company's lines of business.

Net sales were approximately 10.7% lower in the first quarter of fiscal 1998 as
compared to net sales in the fourth quarter of fiscal 1997 of $16,950,000. This
reduction in revenue reflects the normal seasonal decline in bottle and PVC
compound sales volume due in part to the customary decline in industry demand,
resulting from many customer plant shutdowns during the summer months.

Cost of goods sold for the three months ended September 30, 1997 was $12,018,000
or 78.5% of net sales as compared to $10,654,000 or 81.1% of net sales for the
three months ended September 30, 1996. The improvement in cost of goods sold
relates primarily to increased manufacturing efficiencies and lower plastic
resin prices. These factors resulted in higher operating margins compared to the
three months ended September 30, 1996.

Selling, General and Administrative expenses (SG&A") increased by $286,000 in
the first quarter of fiscal 1998 compared to the same period in the prior year.
For the quarter ended September 30, 1997, SG&A expenses were $1,473,000 or 9.6%
of net sales, as compared to $1,187,000 or 9.0% of net sales for the quarter
ended September 30, 1996. SG&A expenses increased due to added marketing efforts
to develop our entry into the PET market and some increase in staff necessary to
support the Company's desire to grow its business.

Depreciation expense increased to a level of $798,000 for the three months ended
September 30, 1997 as compared to $649,000 for the three month period ended
September 30, 1996. This increase is attributed to a new plant expansion at our
Walterboro, SC. and Paris, IL manufacturing facilities along with new capital
equipment employed for the manufacture of PET bottles.

Income from Operations increased $396,000 during the three month period ended
September 30, 1997 as compared to the same period a year ago. For the three
month period ended September 30, 1997, Income from Operations was $1,023,000 or
6.7% of net sales, as compared to $627,000 or 4.8% of net sales for the three
month period ended September 30, 1996. Higher operating income was primarily the
result of improved operations margins and higher operating capacity utilization
during the three month period

                                                                              8

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations                                                                     

ended September 30, 1997 as compared to the three month period ended September
30, 1996. Net income for the quarter ended September 30, 1997 increased 53% to
$487,000 or $.07 per share as compared to $319,000 or $.05 per share for the
quarter ended September 30, 1996.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Company's liquidity and working capital marginally decreased, however,
remained adequate for the three month period ended September 30, 1997. Net
working capital as at September 30, 1997 decreased $647,000 to $7,863,000
compared to $8,510,000 as of June 30, 1997. The current ratio of assets to
liabilities decreased from 1.72 to 1.61 at September 30, 1997, primarily
attributed to the increase in accounts payable and accrued expenses.

During the three month period ended September 30, 1997, the Company generated
cash from operations of $1,951,000 and received proceeds from long term debt in
the amount of $600,000. These funds were used to acquire $2,190,000 in capital
assets and reduce long term debt by $341,000.

The Company's short term liquidity and short term capital resources are adequate
for timely payment to trade and other creditors. The Company's sources of credit
are sufficient to meet its working capital and capital needs in the foreseeable
future. At September 30, 1997, the Company had unused sources of liquidity
consisting of cash and cash equivalents of $242,000 and the availability of the
unused credit under a revolving credit facility of $4,400,000.
