1.  Basis of Presentation

The accompanying condensed unaudited  consolidated financial statements of
Silgan Holdings Inc. ("Holdings"  or the "Company") have  been prepared in
accordance with  Rule  10-01  of Regulation  S-X  and,  therefore,  do not
include all information and footnotes necessary for a fair presentation of
financial position,  results of  operations and  cash flows  in conformity
with generally  accepted  accounting  principles.   All  adjustments  of a
normal recurring nature  have been  made, including  appropriate estimates
for reserves and  provisions which are  normally determined  or settled at
year end.    In the  opinion  of the  Company,  however,  the accompanying
financial statements  contain  all  adjustments  (consisting  solely  of a
normal recurring nature)  necessary to present  fairly Holdings' financial
position as of March 31, 1994 and 1993  and December 31, 1993, the results
of operations for the three months ended March  31, 1994 and 1993, and the
statements of cash  flows for  the three months  ended March  31, 1994 and
1993.

While the Company believes that the  disclosures presented are adequate to
make the information not misleading, it  is suggested that these financial
statements be read in conjunction with  the financial statements and notes
included in  Holdings'  Annual Report  on  Form 10-K  for  the  year ended
December 31, 1993.

In the first quarter  of 1993, the Company  adopted Statement of Financial
Accounting  Standards   ("SFAS")   No.  106   "Employers'  Accounting  for
Postretirement Benefits Other than Pensions"  and SFAS No. 109 "Accounting    
for Income Taxes".   In  the fourth quarter  of 1993, the  Company adopted
SFAS No. 112 "Employers' Accounting for Postemployment Benefits" effective
as  of  January  1,  1993.   The  cumulative  effect  of  these changes in
accounting  methods  aggregated  $6,276.  The financial statements for the
quarter ended March 31, 1993 have been restated to reflect the adoption of
SFAS No. 112. <PAGE>

                 MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
              FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Three Months Ended March 31, 1994 Compared with
Three Months Ended March 31, 1993.

Net sales of  metal containers  were $133.3 million  for the  three months
ended March  31, 1994  (including net  sales  of $50.4  million  and $35.5
million to Nestle Food Company ("Nestle") and Del Monte Corporation ("Del)
Monte"), respectively, during  such period), an increase of $36.0 million,
or 37.0%, over net sales of metal containers of  $97.3  million  for  same
period in 1993 (including net sales  of $57.8  million and $2.0 million to
Nestle and  Del Monte, respectively, during the same period in 1993.)  The
increase  in  net  sales  for  the  three  months  ended March 31, 1994 as
compared  to   the  three  months  ended  March  31,  1993  was  primarily
attributable to increased unit sales due to the acquisitions of all of the
assets of  Del  Monte's  container manufacturing  business  in  the United
States  ("DM Can") in  December  1993 and  of an  additional manufacturing
facility in  May  1993 and  the  earlier sales  of  containers  to certain
vegetable pack customers, offset,  in part, by lower  unit sales to Nestle
and lower average sales prices.

Net sales of plastic containers increased  $2.1 million, or 4.4%, to $50.0
million for the three  months ended March  31, 1994, as  compared to $47.9
million for  the same  period in  1993.   The  increase in  net  sales was
principally attributable to a change in mix of products sold.

Sales of other containers totaled $2.9  million for the three months ended
March 31, 1994, compared to $3.5 million for the same period in 1993.

Cost of goods sold was 87.8%  of net sales ($163.5  million) for the three
months ended  March  31, 1994,  a  decrease of  0.8  percentage  points as
compared to 88.6%  of net  sales ($131.8 million)  for the  same period in
1993.  The  decrease in cost  of goods sold  as a percentage  of net sales
principally resulted from improved manufacturing  efficiencies as a result
of capital investments, increased  margin contribution due to  a change in
the mix  of  products  sold  and  economic  benefits  resulting  from  the
acquisition of DM Can.  Also,  the purchase of an additional manufacturing
facility in  May 1993  increased  production capacity  and  eliminated the
Company's first quarter 1993  outsourcing requirement for  which there was
no margin contribution.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (Continued)


Selling, general and administrative expenses as  a percentage of net sales
declined 0.9 percentage points to 4.6% of net sales ($8.6 million) for the
three months ended March 31, 1994, as  compared to 5.5% ($8.2 million) for
the same  period in  1993.   The  decrease as  a percentage  of  net sales
resulted from the  Company's ability  to absorb  the increase  in selling,
general and administrative functions associated with the acquisition of DM
Can with  a modest  increase in  expenses,  and by  a decline  in selling,
general and  administrative  expenses  of  the  Company's  other  existing
business.

Income from  operations  as  a  percentage  of  net  sales  increased  1.8
percentage points  to 7.6%  ($14.1   million) for  the three  months ended
March 31, 1994, compared with  5.8% ($8.7 million) for  the same period in
1993.   The  increase  in  income  from  operations  of  $5.4  million was
attributable to the aforementioned increase in gross profit margin and the
maintenance of  a constant  level of  selling, general  and administrative
expenses.

Interest expense increased by approximately $2.5  million to $15.6 million
for the three months ended March 31, 1994.  The increase resulted from the
incurrance of additional bank borrowings to  finance the acquisition of DM
Can, higher average  interest rates, and  higher accretion  of interest on
the discount debentures.

The provisions for income taxes for the  three months ended March 31, 1994
and 1993 were comprised of state and foreign components and recognized the
benefit of certain  deductions for federal  income tax  purposes which are
available to Holdings.

As a result of the  items discussed above, the  net loss before cumulative
effect of  changes in  accounting principles  for  the three  months ended
March 31, 1994 was $2.2 million,  $2.6 million less than  the loss for the
three months ended March 31, 1993 of $4.8 million.

Effective January 1, 1993, the Company adopted  SFAS No. 106, SFAS No. 109
and SFAS No. 112.  The cumulative  effect of these accounting changes, for
years prior to 1993, was to decrease the net loss by $6.3 million.

CAPITAL RESOURCES AND LIQUIDITY

The Company's liquidity requirements arise  primarily from its obligations
under the indebtedness  incurred in  connection with its  acquisitions and
the refinancing  of  such  indebtedness,  capital  investment  in  new and
existing equipment  and  the  funding of  the  Company's  seasonal working
capital  needs.    Historically,  the  Company  has  met  these  liquidity
requirements through  cash flow  generated from  operating  activities and
borrowings of working capital loans.

For the first three months of 1994, the borrowing of working capital loans
of $3.6  million along  with $3.8  million of  cash provided  by operating
activities were used to fund net  capital expenditures of $4.9 million and
increase cash balances  by $2.5  million.   The Company's  earnings before
depreciation, interest, taxes and amortization for  the three months ended
March 31, 1994 increased by $7.2 million over the same period in the prior
year to $23.9  million. However,  cash provided  by operations  during the
first three months of 1994 declined slightly  from the same period in 1993
because there was an  increase in working  capital needs in  1994.  During
the first  three  months  of  1994  there  was  an  increase  in  accounts
receivable due to greater  sales during the  first quarter of  1994 and an
increase in  inventories due  to the  projected  requirements for  DM Can,
offset by an increase in trade  accounts payable resulting from the higher
inventory levels.

Because the Company  sells metal  containers used  in vegetable  and fruit
processing, its sales are seasonal.  As a result, a significant portion of
the Company's revenues are generated in the first nine months of the year.
As is common  in the packaging  industry, the Company  must access working
capital to build  inventory and  then carry  accounts receivable  for some
customers beyond the end of the summer  and fall packing season.  Seasonal
accounts are generally settled by year end.  Due to the Company's seasonal
requirements, the  Company expects  to  incur short  term  indebtedness to
finance its  working  capital  requirements,  and  it  is  estimated  that
approximately $50  million  of  the  working  capital  revolver, including
letters of credit, will be utilized at its peak in July 1994.

As of March 31, 1994, the  outstanding principal amount of working capital
loans was $5.8  million and,  subject to a  borrowing base  limitation and
taking into account outstanding  letters of credit, the  unused portion of
working capital commitments at such date was $57.8 million.

CAPITAL RESOURCES AND LIQUIDITY (Continued)

On December 21,  1993, Silgan  Containers Corporation, an  indirect wholly
owned subsidiary of Holdings, acquired DM Can  from Del Monte.  To finance
the acquisition, Silgan Corporation, a wholly owned subsidiary of Holdings
("Silgan"),  and its subsidiaries  entered into a credit  agreement, which
credit agreement also refinanced in full  Silgan's prior credit agreement.
In conjunction therewith, the  banks party to the  credit agreement loaned
Silgan an aggregate of  $140 million of term  loans and agreed  to lend to
Silgan's subsidiaries  up to  $70 million  of working  capital loans.   In
addition, in  conjunction  with  the  acquisition,  Holdings  sold 250,000
shares of its Class B Common Stock for $15 million. <PAGE>
