Three Months Ended September 30, 2000 Compared with Three Months Ended September
30, 1999
Net Sales. Consolidated net sales for the three months ended September 30, 2000
decreased $9.4 million, or 1.6%, to $562.3 million as compared to the third
quarter of 1999 as a result of lower net sales of the metal food container and
specialty packaging businesses, offset in part by higher net sales of the
plastic container business.
Net sales for the metal food container business were $445.3 million for the
three months ended September 30, 2000, a decrease of $10.9 million, or 2.4%,
from net sales of $456.2 million for the same period in 1999. The decrease in
third quarter net sales was primarily attributable to lower unit sales
principally because of a reduced fruit and vegetable pack as compared to the
prior year and the loss of lower margin sales related to the closure of a West
Coast facility earlier this year.
Net sales for the plastic container business of $85.8 million during the three
months ended September 30, 2000 increased $6.7 million, or 8.5%, from net sales
of $79.1 million for the same period in 1999. The increase in net sales was
principally attributable to higher prices due to the pass through of increased
resin costs, and was partially offset by lower unit sales to certain major
customers who were adjusting their inventory levels and due to fewer new
products being introduced by customers as compared to the prior year.
Net sales for the specialty packaging business decreased $5.2 million, or 14.3%,
to $31.2 million during the three months ended September 30, 2000, as compared
to $36.4 million for the same period in 1999. This decrease was primarily due to
generally soft demand from customers and to lower unit sales of metal closures
as a result of conversions from metal to plastic.
Cost of Goods Sold. Cost of goods sold as a percentage of consolidated net sales
was 86.8% ($487.9 million) for the three months ended September 30, 2000, a
decrease of 0.1 percentage points as compared to 86.9% ($497.0 million) for the
same period in 1999. The slight increase in gross profit margin was primarily
attributable to the metal food container business principally as a result of an
improved sales mix and benefits realized from plant rationalizations. This
improvement was largely offset by the effect of increased resin costs of the
plastic container business, lower unit sales of the Company's three business
segments and operating inefficiencies at one plant of the specialty packaging
business.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. Selling, general and
administrative expenses as a percentage of consolidated net sales increased
slightly to 3.2% ($17.7 million) for the three months ended September 30, 2000,
as compared to 3.1% ($17.9 million) for the three months ended September 30,
1999.
-17-
<PAGE>
Income from Operations. Income from operations for the three months ended
September 30, 2000 was $56.8 million, as compared to $56.7 million for the same
period in 1999 excluding the effect of the non-cash charge in 1999 of $24.2
million to write down the carrying value of certain assets of the metal food
container business described below. Including the effect of the non-cash charge,
income from operations for the three months ended September 30, 1999 was $32.5
million. Income from operations as a percentage of consolidated net sales
increased to 10.1% for the three months ended September 30, 2000, as compared to
9.9% for the same period in 1999 excluding the effect of the non-cash charge.
During the third quarter of 1999, the Company completed a study initiated
earlier that year to evaluate the long-term utilization of all assets of its
metal food container business, including assets acquired through acquisitions.
As a result, the Company recorded a non-cash charge to earnings in the third
quarter of 1999 of $24.2 million to reduce the carrying value of those assets
determined to be surplus or obsolete.
Income from operations for the metal food container business for the three
months ended September 30, 2000 increased $3.5 million, or 7.7%, to $49.2
million, as compared to $45.7 million for the same period in 1999 excluding the
effect of the non-cash charge. Including the effect of the non-cash charge,
income from operations of the metal food container business for the three months
ended September 30, 1999 was $21.5 million. Income from operations as a
percentage of net sales of the metal food container business increased 1.0
percentage point to 11.0% for the three months ended September 30, 2000, as
compared to 10.0% for the same period in 1999 excluding the effect of the
non-cash charge. The increase in operating income and improvement in operating
margins of the metal food container business was primarily a result of an
improved sales mix and benefits realized from plant rationalizations, offset in
part by other higher manufacturing costs, including energy costs.
Income from operations for the plastic container business for the three months
ended September 30, 2000 was $8.0 million, as compared to $9.5 million for the
third quarter of 1999. Income from operations as a percentage of net sales of
the plastic container business declined 2.7 percentage points to 9.3% in the
third quarter of 2000, as compared to 12.0% in the third quarter of 1999. This
decline was due to the effect of sharply increased resin prices, lower selling
prices resulting from competitive pricing and higher per unit manufacturing
costs primarily as a result of lower unit production.
Income from operations for the specialty packaging business for the three months
ended September 30, 2000 was $0.3 million, as compared to $2.2 million in the
same period in the prior year. This decrease was primarily due to the effect of
lower net sales and operating inefficiencies at one plant. Operating margins of
the specialty packaging business declined to 0.1% in the third quarter of 2000
as compared to 6.0% in the third quarter of 1999 for the reasons mentioned
above.
-18-
<PAGE>
Interest Expense. Interest expense increased $0.7 million to $23.5 million for
the three months ended September 30, 2000 as compared to the same period in
1999. Lower average borrowings outstanding during the quarter due to repayments
made late in the prior year and to lower net working capital usage this year
offset much of the effect of higher current period interest rates.
Income Taxes. The provision for income taxes for the three months ended
September 30, 2000 and 1999 was recorded at an effective tax rate of 39.0% and
38.0%, respectively ($13.0 million and $3.7 million, respectively).
Net Income and Earnings per Share. Income before equity in losses of affiliate
for the three months ended September 30, 2000 was $20.3 million, or $1.13 per
diluted share, as compared to $21.0 million, or $1.17 per diluted share, for the
same period in 1999 excluding the effect of the non-cash charge described above.
Including the Company's equity in losses of affiliate of $1.8 million, net
income for the three months ended September 30, 2000 was $18.5 million, or $1.03
per diluted share. Including the effect of the non-cash charge, net income for
the three months ended September 30, 1999 was $6.0 million, or $0.34 per diluted
share.

Nine Months Ended September 30, 2000 Compared with Nine Months Ended September
30, 1999
Net Sales. Consolidated net sales decreased $7.9 million, or 0.1%, to $1,395.5
million for the nine months ended September 30, 2000, as compared to net sales
of $1,403.4 million for the same nine months in the prior year. This slight
decrease was primarily attributable to lower unit sales of the Company's three
business segments which was mostly offset by higher prices of the plastic
container business due to the pass through of increased resin costs.
Net sales for the metal food container business were $1,044.5 million for the
nine months ended September 30, 2000, a decrease of $13.8 million, or 1.3%, from
net sales of $1,058.3 million for the same period in 1999. This decrease was
primarily due to the loss of lower margin sales related to the closure of a West
Coast facility earlier this year and to lower unit sales principally because of
a reduced fruit and vegetable pack as compared to the prior year and generally
lower demand.
Net sales for the plastic container business of $256.5 million during the nine
months ended September 30, 2000 increased $14.5 million, or 6.0%, from net sales
of $242.0 million for the same period in 1999. The increase in net sales was
principally attributable to higher prices due to the pass through of increased
resin costs and to a favorable sales mix, and was offset in part by lower unit
sales to certain major customers who were adjusting their inventory levels and
due to fewer new products being introduced by customers as compared to the prior
year.
Net sales for the specialty packaging business decreased $8.6 million, or 8.3%,
to $94.5 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2000, as compared to
$103.1 million for the same period in 1999. This decrease was primarily
attributable to lower unit sales as a result of generally soft demand from
customers, the conversion of metal closures to plastic and a change in sales mix
during the current period as compared to the same period in 1999.
Cost of Goods Sold. Cost of goods sold as a percentage of consolidated net sales
was 87.4% ($1,219.7 million) for the nine months ended September 30, 2000, an
increase of 0.4 percentage points as compared to 87.0% ($1,221.0 million) for
the same period in 1999. The decline in gross profit margins was primarily
attributable to the effect of increased resin costs of the plastic container
business and lower unit sales of the Company's three business segments.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. Selling, general and
administrative expenses as a percentage of consolidated net sales remained
constant at 3.9% for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 and 1999 ($54.1
million and $55.3 million, respectively).
Income from Operations. Income from operations for the nine months ended
September 30, 2000 was $121.8 million, as compared to $127.1 million for the
same period in 1999 excluding the effect of the non-cash charge in 1999 of $24.2

million to write down the carrying value of certain assets of the metal food
container business described above. Including the effect of the non-cash charge,
income from operations for the nine months ended September 30, 1999 was $102.9
million. Income from operations as a percentage of consolidated net sales
decreased to 8.7% for the nine months ended September 30, 2000, as compared to
9.1% for the same period in 1999 excluding the effect of the non-cash charge.
Income from operations for the metal food container business for the nine months
ended September 30, 2000 increased $3.7 million, or 4.0%, to $97.1 million, as
compared to $93.4 million for the same period in 1999 excluding the effect of
the non-cash charge. Including the effect of the non-cash charge, income from
operations of the metal food container business for the nine months ended
September 30, 1999 was $69.2 million. Income from operations as a percentage of
net sales of the metal food container business increased 0.5 percentage points
to 9.3% for the nine months ended September 30, 2000, as compared to 8.8% for
the same period in 1999 excluding the effect of the non-cash charge. The
increase in operating income and improvement in operating margins of the metal
food container business was primarily a result of an improved sales mix,
benefits realized from plant rationalizations and lower selling, general and
administrative expenses, offset in part by increased per unit manufacturing
costs due to a planned reduction in inventory and by higher depreciation
expense.
Income from operations for the plastic container business for the nine months
ended September 30, 2000 was $25.7 million, as compared to $30.4 for the same
period in 1999. Income from operations as a percentage of net sales for the
plastic container business for the nine months ended September 30, 2000
decreased 2.6 percentage points to 10.0%, as compared to 12.6% for the same
period in 1999. The decrease in income from operations as a percentage of net
sales was principally attributable to the effects of lower unit sales, increased
resin costs, lower selling prices resulting from competitive pricing and higher
depreciation.
Income from operations for the specialty packaging business for the nine months
ended September 30, 2000 was $1.6 million, as compared to $6.2 million for the
same nine months in 1999. Income from operations as a percentage of net sales
for the specialty packaging business decreased to 1.7% for the nine months ended
September 30, 2000, as compared to 6.0% for the same period in 1999. This
decrease was primarily due to the effects of lower net sales, a change in sales
mix and operating inefficiencies at one plant.
Interest Expense. Interest expense increased $1.0 million to $66.1 million for
the nine months ended September 30, 2000 as compared to the same period in 1999.
Lower average borrowings outstanding during the current year period due to
repayments made late in the prior year and to lower net working capital usage
this year offset much of the effect of higher current period interest rates.
Income Taxes. The provision for income taxes for the nine months ended September
30, 2000 and 1999 was recorded at an effective tax rate of 39.0% and 38.7%,
respectively ($21.7 million and $14.6 million, respectively).

Net Income and Earnings per Share. Income before equity in losses of affiliate
for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 was $33.9 million, or $1.89 per
diluted share, as compared to $38.2 million, or $2.09 per diluted share, for the
same period in 1999 excluding the effect of the non-cash charge described above.
Including the Company's equity in losses of affiliate of $3.9 million, net
income for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 was $30.0 million, or $1.67
per diluted share. Including the effect of the non-cash charge, net income for
the nine months ended September 30, 2000 was $23.1 million, or $1.27 per diluted
share.
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 revolving loan borrowings.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2000, the Company used net borrowings of
revolving loans of $214.9 million under the Company's credit agreements,
proceeds from asset sales of $1.2 million and proceeds from the exercise of
stock options of $0.5 million to fund cash used by operations of $145.8 million
for the Company's seasonal working capital needs, the Company's investment of
$7.0 million in Packtion, an e-commerce packaging venture, repurchases of common
stock for $1.1 million, the repayment of $1.2 million of long-term debt and
capital expenditures of $60.4 million and to increase cash balances by $1.1
million.
Because the Company sells metal containers used in fruit and vegetable pack
processing, its sales are seasonal. As is common in the 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.
The Company utilizes its revolving loan facilities for seasonal working capital
needs and for other general corporate purposes, including acquisitions and
repurchases of its common stock. During the third quarter of 2000, at its
month-end peak the Company had incurred approximately $215 million of revolving
loan borrowings for seasonal working capital needs. Amounts available under the
Company's revolving loan facilities in excess of its seasonal working capital
needs are available to the Company to pursue its growth strategy and for other
permitted purposes.
As of September 30, 2000, the Company had $340.1 million of revolving loans
outstanding, of which $214.9 million related primarily to seasonal working
capital needs and $125.2 million related to long-term financing of acquisitions.
Revolving loans not expected to be repaid within one year have been recorded as
long-term debt. The unused portion of revolving loan commitments under the
Company's credit agreements at September 30, 2000, after taking into account
-22-
<PAGE>
outstanding letters of credit but before the increase in October 2000 in the
Company's revolving loan facility under the U.S. Credit Agreement, was $192.9
million.
In October 2000, pursuant to the agreement of certain lenders under the U.S.
Credit Agreement the Company's revolving loan facility thereunder was increased
by $125.0 million from $545.5 million to $670.5 million in accordance with the
terms of the U.S. Credit Agreement.
Effective October 1, 2000, the Company acquired all of the outstanding stock of
RXI Holdings, a manufacturer and seller of rigid plastic packaging, for
approximately $125.0 in cash. The Company funded the purchase price for RXI
Holdings using revolving loans under its U.S. Credit Agreement.
On November 3, 2000, the Company gave irrevocable notice to redeem all of its
outstanding 13 1/4% Debentures ($56.2 million principal amount), at a redemption
price of 109.938% of their principal amount, or approximately $61.8 million,
plus accrued and unpaid interest to the redemption date. The Company has fixed
December 8, 2000 as the date for this redemption. As permitted under the U.S.
Credit Agreement and the other documents governing the Company's indebtedness,
the Company will fund the redemption price for all of the 13 1/4% Debentures
with lower cost revolving loans under the U.S. Credit Agreement. Based on the
current interest rates for its revolving loans under the U.S. Credit Agreement,
the Company estimates annual interest savings of approximately $2.6 million on
the indebtedness being refinanced as a result of this redemption. After this
redemption, the Company estimates that approximately $120-$130 million, taking
into account the Company's anticipated month-end peak seasonal borrowing needs,
of its revolving loan facility under its U.S. Credit Agreement will be available
to it for acquisitions, repurchases of common stock and other permitted
purposes. In the fourth quarter of 2000, the Company will incur an extraordinary
charge, net of tax, of approximately $4.2 million, or $0.23 per diluted share,
for the premium to be paid in connection with this redemption and for the
write-off of unamortized financing costs related to the 13 1/4% Debentures.
In 1998, the Company's Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to
$60.0 million of its common stock. In 1999, the Company's Board of Directors
authorized the repurchase by the Company of up to an additional $10.0 million of
its common stock, for a total of $70.0 million. As of September 30, 2000, the
Company had repurchased 2,708,975 shares of its common stock for an aggregate
cost of approximately $61.0 million. The Company intends to finance future share
repurchases, if any, through revolving loan borrowings under its U.S. Credit
Agreement or through internally generated funds.
Management believes that cash generated by operations and funds from revolving
loan borrowings under the Company's credit agreements will be sufficient to meet
the Company's expected operating needs, planned capital expenditures,
investments in an affiliate, debt service, rationalization costs, share
repurchase plan and tax obligations for the foreseeable future.
The Company is in compliance with all financial and operating covenants
contained in the instruments and agreements governing its indebtedness and
believes that it will continue to be in compliance with all such covenants
during 2000.

RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
During May 2000, the Emerging Issues Task Force ("EITF") issued EITF Issue No.
00-10, "Accounting for Shipping and Handling Fees and Costs." EITF No. 00-10
addresses the income statement classification for shipping and handling fees and
costs. The Company plans to adopt EITF No. 00-10 in the fourth quarter of 2000.
The Company's income statements, including those presented for comparative
purposes, will include the reclassification of certain revenue reductions to
cost of goods sold. These reclassifications will not affect the Company's income
from operations or net income.
In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the "FASB") issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 133, "Accounting for
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities." In June 1999, the FASB issued
SFAS No. 137, which amended SFAS No. 133 to delay its effective date. In June
2000, the FASB issued SFAS No. 138, which further amended SFAS No. 133. The
Company will adopt SFAS No. 133, as amended, on January 1, 2001. SFAS No. 133
requires that all derivative instruments be recorded on the consolidated balance
sheet at their fair value. Changes in the fair value of derivatives will be
recorded each period in net income or other comprehensive income, depending on
whether a derivative is designated as part of a hedge transaction and, if it is,
the type of hedge transaction. The Company does not anticipate that the adoption
of SFAS No. 133, as amended, will have a material impact on its financial
position or results of operations.

Market risks relating to the Company's operations result primarily from changes
in interest rates. The Company also has limited foreign currency risk associated

procedures to manage its exposure to fluctuations in interest rates and the
value of foreign currencies. Interest rate and foreign currency transactions are
used only to the extent considered necessary to meet the Company's objectives.
The Company does not utilize derivative financial instruments for trading or
other speculative purposes.
Information regarding the Company's interest rate risk and foreign currency
exchange rate risk has been disclosed in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the
