                            PVC Container Corporation

             Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)




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 December 31, 1999, and the
           consolidated results of operations and cash flows for the six month
           periods ended December 31, 1999 and 1998.

           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.

           Diluted 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 7,040,101 and 7,004,705 for the
           six month periods ended December 31, 1999 and 1998, respectively.

Note 2     The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the
           accounts of PVC Container Corporation and its wholly-owned
           subsidiaries, Novatec Plastics Corporation, Marpac Industries, Inc.,
           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 six
           months ended December 31, 1999 was the effect of certain noncash
           financing activities related to the $2.5 million and $7.3 million
           loans obtained by the Company from GE Capital in March 1998 and June
           1998, respectively, 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 these agreements totaled approximately $728,000 and
           $2,630,000 for the six months ended December 31, 1999 and 1998,
           respectively.

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


RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Net sales for the three month period ended December 31, 1999 increased by 12.7%
to $21,070,000 as compared to $18,702,000 for the three month period ended
December 31, 1998. For the six months ended December 31, 1999, sales increased
by 12.5% to $41,996,000 compared to $37,315,000 for the six month period ended
December 31, 1998. Growth in the Company's Specialty Products line as well as a
general improvement in the demand for plastic compounds resulted in the higher
revenues for the current period.

Cost of goods sold for the three months ended December 31, 1999 was $17,041,000
or 80.0% of net sales as compared to $14,218,000 or 76.0% of net sales for the
three months ended December 31, 1998. For the six months ended December 31, 1999
cost of goods sold was $33,588,000 or 79.9% of net sales as compared to
$29,648,000 or 79.4% for the six months ended December 31, 1998. This increase
is mainly attributable to the under absorption of overhead expenses, along with
the increased pricing of plastic compounds and resins.

Selling, General and Administrative expenses ("SG&A") increased by $433,000 for
the three month period ended December 31,1999, and by $781,000 for the six month
period ended December 31, 1999 compared to the same period a year ago. For the
quarter ended December 31, 1999, SG&A expenses were $2,535,000 or 12% of net
sales, as compared to $2,102,000 or 11.2% of net sales for the quarter ended
December 31, 1998. For the six months ended December 31, 1999, SG&A expenses
were $4,814,000 or 11.4% of net sales as compared to $4,033,000 or 10.8% of net
sales for the six month period ended December 31, 1998. This increase is mainly
attributable to the 35% and 28% increase in personnel costs for the quarter and
six months ended December 31, 1999 respectively as compared to the same period
last year reflecting the Company's additional administrative and sales and
marketing workforce. Additionally, the Company has incurred additional rental
costs resulting from its relocation of the executive and administrative
functions resulting from the sale of its manufacturing and office facility in
Eatontown, New Jersey.

Depreciation and amortization expenses decreased to a level of $1,642,000 for
the three months ended December 31, 1999 as compared to $1,817,000 for the three
months ended December 31, 1998. For the six month period ended December 31,
1999, depreciation and amortization expenses were $3,413,000 as compared to
$3,428,000 for the six month period ended December 31, 1998. The primary cause
for the reduction during the quarter ended December 31, 1999 is the effect of
certain manufacturing assets becoming fully depreciated in the current fiscal
year.

Income from Operations decreased $713,000 during the three month period ended
December 31, 1999 as compared to the same period a year ago. For the three month
period ended December 31, 1999, Income (Loss) from Operations was ($149,000) or


                                                                               8
<PAGE>   9
(0.7%) of net sales, as compared to $565,000 or 3% of net sales for the three
months ended December 31, 1998. Income from Operations for the six month period
ended December 31, 1999 decreased to $181,000 or 0.4% of net sales as compared
to $205,000 or 0.6% of net sales for the six month period ended December 31,
1998. The decrease in Operating Income (Loss) is principally the result of lower
operating margins, lower plant utilization, higher unabsorbed factory overhead
and increase in raw material costs during the six month period ended December
31, 1999.

Net income (loss) for the quarter ended December 31, 1999 decreased to
($564,000) or ($.08) on a diluted earnings per share basis as compared to
$40,000 or $.01 on a diluted earnings per share basis for the same period a year
ago. For the six months ended December 31, 1999, net loss increased to
$(732,000) or $(.10) on a diluted earnings per share basis as compared to
($440,000) or ($.06) on a diluted earnings per share basis for the six month
period ended December 31, 1998.




LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Company's liquidity position and working capital remained adequate for the
six month period ended December 31, 1999. Net working capital at December 31,
1999 decreased $445,000 to $13,195,000 compared to $13,640,000 as of June 30,
1999. The current ratio of assets to liabilities increased from 1.7 to 1.8 at
December 31, 1999, primarily attributable to the recognition of an income tax
benefit associated with the Company's net loss for the six months ended December
31, 1999.


During the six month period ended December 31, 1999, the Company generated
$4,262,000 and $2,925,000 from proceeds from the sale of our facility located in
Eatontown, New Jersey and long term debt respectively. These funds were
primarily used to acquire capital assets of $932,000, finance working capital
and operations for $916,000 and reduce long term debt by $6,069,000.

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 December 31, 1999, the Company had unused sources of liquidity
consisting of cash and cash equivalents of $88,000 and the availability of the
unused credit under a revolving credit facility of $2,100,000.

The Company's building located at 401 Industrial Way West, Eatontown, New Jersey
which was previously classified as Asset Held for Sale was sold in December,
1999 at approximately $173,000 less than book value of the property. This loss
on the sale is reflected in Other Income (Expense) in the December 31, 1999
Consolidated Statement of Operations.


IMPACT OF YEAR 2000


                                                                               9

Although the date is now past January 1, 2000, we have not experienced an
immediate adverse impact from the transition to the Year 2000. However, we
cannot provide assurance that we or our suppliers and customers have not been
affected in a manner that is not yet apparent. In addition, some computer
programs that were date sensitive to the Year 2000 may not have been programmed
to process the Year 2000 as a leap year, and any negative consequential effects
