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  September 30,  1994 and  1993 and  December 31,  1993, the
results of operations for the three months and nine months ended September
30, 1994 and 1993,  and the statements of  cash flows for  the nine months
ended September 30,  1994 and 1993.   Certain  reclassifications have been
made to conform prior years' data to the current presentation.

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
period ended September 30, 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 September 30, 1994 Compared with
Three Months Ended September 30, 1993

Net sales of  metal containers  were $231.2 million  for the  three months
ended September 30, 1994  (including net sales of  $65.7 million and $81.4
million to Nestle Food Company ("Nestle")  and Del Monte Corporation ("Del
Monte"), respectively, during such period), an  increase of $98.8 million,
or 74.6%, over  net sales  of metal containers  of $132.4  million for the
same period in 1993 (including net sales of $57.6 million and $3.1 million
to Nestle and  Del Monte, respectively,  during the same  period in 1993.)
The increase in net sales for the three months ended September 30, 1994 as
compared to  the  three  months ended  September  30,  1993  was primarily
attributable to increased unit sales due to  the acquisition of all of the
assets of  Del  Monte's  container manufacturing  business  in  the United
States ("DM Can") in December 1993,  increased unit sales of containers to
Nestle and existing vegetable pack customers, offset, in part, by modestly
lower average sales prices.

Net sales of plastic containers increased $7.0 million, or 15.3%, to $52.8
million for  the three  months ended  September 30,  1994, as  compared to
$45.8 million for the same period in 1993.   The increase in net sales was
principally attributable  to  increased  unit sales  to  new  and existing
customers.

Sales of other containers totaled $2.0  million for the three months ended
September 30, 1994, compared to $2.9 million for the same period in 1993.

Cost of goods sold was 87.1%  of net sales ($249.2  million) for the three
months ended September  30, 1994, a  decrease of 2.2  percentage points as
compared to 89.3%  of net  sales ($161.8 million)  for the  same period in
1993.  The  decrease in cost  of goods sold  as a percentage  of net sales
principally resulted from lower per unit manufacturing costs due to higher
production volumes,  improved  manufacturing  efficiencies  resulting from
greater capital investment in 1993 and synergistic benefits resulting from
the acquisition of DM Can.<PAGE>


                                                               Page 9 of 15
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (Continued)


Selling, general and administrative expenses as  a percentage of net sales
declined 0.7 percentage points to 3.4% of net sales ($9.6 million) for the
three months ended September 30, 1994,  as compared to 4.1% ($7.4 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.

Income  from   operations  as   a  percentage   of  net   sales  increased
2.9 percentage points to 9.5%  ($27.2 million) for the  three months ended
September 30, 1994, compared with 6.6% ($11.9 million) for the same period
in 1993.   The increase  in income  from operations  of $15.3  million was
principally attributable to the aforementioned increase in gross profit.

Interest expense increased by approximately $2.9  million to $16.8 million
for the three months ended September 30, 1994.  The increase resulted from
the incurrance of additional bank borrowings to finance the acquisition of
DM Can,  higher  average  bank borrowing  rates  and  higher  accretion of
interest on the Company's discount debentures.

The provision for  income taxes for  the three months  ended September 30,
1994 and September 30, 1993 were comprised of state and foreign components
and recognize the  benefit of  certain deductions  for federal  income tax
purposes which are available to Holdings.

As a result of the items discussed above,  net income for the three months
ended September 30, 1994 was $9.0  million, $12.5 million greater than the
net loss for the three months ended September 30, 1993 of $3.5 million.<PAGE>

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (Continued)


Nine Months Ended September 30, 1994 Compared with
Nine Months Ended September 30, 1993

Net sales  of metal  containers were  $514.9 million  for the  nine months
ended September 30, 1994 (including net sales of $167.6 million and $158.0
million to Nestle  and Del  Monte, respectively,  during such  period), an
increase of $187.2 million,  or 57.1%, over net  sales of metal containers
of $327.7 million  for the  same period  in 1993  (including net  sales of
$163.9 million and  $7.6 million  to Nestle  and Del  Monte, respectively,
during the same period in 1993.)   The increase in net  sales for the nine
months ended  September 30,  1994 as  compared  to the  nine  months ended
September 30, 1993 was primarily attributable  to increased unit sales due
to the acquisition of DM Can in December  1993 and increased unit sales of
containers to  existing  customers,  including  vegetable  pack customers,
offset, in part, by modestly lower average sales prices.

Net sales  of  plastic containers  increased  $10.2 million,  or  7.2%, to
$150.9 million for the  nine months ended September  30, 1994, as compared
to $140.7 million for the same period in 1993.   The increase in net sales
was attributable to  increased unit  sales to  new and  existing customers
and, to  a lesser  extent, higher  average  sales prices  due to  the pass
through of higher resin costs.

Sales of other containers  totaled $7.4 million for  the nine months ended
September 30, 1994, compared to $9.9 million for the same period in 1993.

Cost of goods sold  was 86.8% of net  sales ($584.7 million)  for the nine
months ended September  30, 1994, a  decrease of 1.3  percentage points as
compared to 88.1%  of net  sales ($421.5 million)  for the  same period in
1993.  The  decrease in cost  of goods sold  as a percentage  of net sales
principally resulted from lower per unit manufacturing costs due to higher
production volumes,  improved  manufacturing  efficiencies  resulting from
greater capital investment in 1993 and synergistic benefits resulting from
the  acquisition  of  DM   Can.  Also,  the  purchase   of  an  additional
manufacturing facility  in  May  1993  increased  production  capacity and
offset the first half 1993 outsourcing  requirement for which there was no
margin contribution.<PAGE>

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (Continued)



Selling, general and administrative expenses as  a percentage of net sales
declined 0.9 percentage  points to 4.2%  of net sales  ($28.3 million) for
the nine  months ended  September 30,  1994,  as compared  to  5.1% ($24.3
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.

Income  from   operations  as   a  percentage   of  net   sales  increased
2.2 percentage points to  9.0% ($60.3 million)  for the  nine months ended
September 30, 1994, compared with 6.8% ($32.6 million) for the same period
in 1993.   The increase  in income  from operations  of $27.7  million was
principally attributable to the aforementioned increase in gross profit.

Interest expense increased by approximately $8.5  million to $48.7 million
for the  nine months  ended September  30,  1994.   The  increase resulted
primarily from the incurrance of additional bank borrowings to finance the
acquisition of  DM Can,  higher average  bank  borrowing rates  and higher
accretion of interest on the Company's discount debentures.

The provision for  income taxes  for the nine  months ended  September 30,
1994 and September 30, 1993 were comprised of state and foreign components
and recognize the  benefit of  certain deductions  for federal  income tax
purposes which are available to Holdings.

As a result of the items  discussed above, net income  for the nine months
ended September 30, 1994 was $8.2 million, $19.0  million greater than the
loss before cumulative effect of changes  in accounting principles for the
nine months ended September 30, 1993 of $10.8 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 net income by $6.3 million.<PAGE>

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (Continued)


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 nine months of 1994, cash generated from operations of $25.6
million was used to fund capital expenditures of $17.0 million, repay $5.0
million of  term  loan  borrowings and  $1.4  million  of  working capital
borrowings and increase cash balances by $2.2 million.  Cash provided from
operations during  the  nine months  ended  September 30,  1994  was $24.9
million greater than cash provided from  operations during the same period
in the  prior year.   This  increase  was attributable  to an  increase in
earnings before  depreciation,  interest,  taxes  and  amortization ($88.8
million for the nine months ended  September 30, 1994 versus $55.8 million
for the same period in the prior  year) principally due to higher earnings
realized on increased sales  volume. Net working capital  at September 30,
1994, as compared to September 30,  1993, increased due to the acquisition
of DM Can on December 21, 1993.

Because the Company  sells metal  containers used  in vegetable  and fruit
processing, its  sales  are  seasonal.  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
incurred  short  term   indebtedness  to   finance  its   working  capital
requirements, and  approximately  $50.0  million  of  the  working capital
revolver, including letters of  credit, were utilized at  its peak in July
1994.

As of  September 30,  1994, the  outstanding  principal amount  of working
capital loans was $0.9 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 $63.9 million.  On October
14, 1994,  the  Company voluntarily  prepaid  $15.0 million  of  term loan
borrowings under  its credit  agreement in  satisfaction of  the mandatory
payment due December 31, 1994.<PAGE>

CAPITAL RESOURCES AND LIQUIDITY (Continued)

In May  1994,  Silgan  Containers Corporation,  an  indirect  wholly owned
subsidiary of Holdings ("Containers"),  extended the term of  three of its
supply agreements  with  Nestle  (representing  approximately  65%  of the
Company's unit sales to Nestle) through December 31, 2001.

On December  21, 1993,  Containers 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 $140.0 million  of term loans and
agreed to lend  to Silgan's  subsidiaries up to  $70.0 million  of working
capital loans.  In addition, in conjunction with the acquisition, Holdings
sold 250,000 shares of its Class B Common Stock for $15.0 million.<PAGE>
