NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
MARCH 31, 1996


NOTE 1 - UNAUDITED INTERIM INFORMATION

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include
all adjustments which in the opinion of management are necessary for a fair
presentation of the information for the interim periods herein reported. The
unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include amounts that are
based on management's best estimates and judgments. The preparation of financial
statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires
management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of
assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at
the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and
expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those
estimates. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be
read in conjunction with the financial statements included in the Company's
Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1995 as filed with
the Securities and Exchange Commission. The results for the three months ended
March 31, 1996 are not necessarily indicative of results of operations for the
year ending December 31, 1996.

NOTE 2 - EARNINGS PER COMMON AND COMMON EQUIVALENT SHARE

Earnings per common and common equivalent share is calculated using the weighted
average number of common shares issued and outstanding, adjusted for treasury
shares, and equivalent common shares derived from dilutive stock options and
warrants. The number of shares used in the calculations were as follows:

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - MARCH 31, 1996 VS. 1995


RESULTS OF OPERATIONS:

Net sales for the three months ended March 31, 1996 increased approximately 79%
to $14.9 million compared to $8.4 million for the three months ended March 31,
1995. This increase resulted from an 84% increase in sales of containers and a
71% increase in sales of closures and custom products. Approximately 42% of the
increase in net sales was a result of the Company's acquisition of a majority
interest in American Safety Closure Corp. ("ASC") in mid 1995. The remaining
increases were largely due to increased demand from existing customers and an
expanding customer base. The increase in net sales was primarily a result of
increased quantities of products sold, a greater percentage of tubes with
dispensing closures, and higher average container prices resulting from a change
in product mix.

Gross profit for the three months ended March 31, 1996 increased approximately
98% to $4.9 million from $2.5 million in the comparable period of 1995. As a
percentage of net sales, gross profit increased to 33.1% for the three months
ended March 31, 1996, from 29.9% in the comparable period of the prior year. The
improvement in gross margin percentage was caused primarily by lower raw
material costs (approximately 4%), a favorable change in product mix reflecting
a greater percentage of higher margin products (approximately 3%), and improved
manufacturing economies related to higher production levels (approximately 2%),
partially offset by a higher percentage of third party dispensing closures on
tubes sold (approximately 3 %) and the consolidation of ASC which produced
products with lower gross margins than the other operations of the Company
(approximately 3%).

Selling expenses for the three months ended March 31, 1996 increased 59% to
$981,000 compared to $618,000 for the comparable period of the prior year. As a
percentage of net sales, selling expenses decreased to 6.6% for the three months
ended March 31, 1996 from 7.4% for the corresponding period of 1995. The changes
were due primarily to the inclusion of ASC selling expenses and higher freight
costs.

General and administrative expenses for the three months ended March 31, 1996
increased to $1,132,000 from $521,000 for the three months ended March 31, 1995.
As a percentage of sales, general and administrative expenses increased to 7.6%
for the three months ended March 31, 1996 from 6.2% for the same period in 1995.
The addition of ASC administrative expenses, higher salaries, higher bad debt
expenses and higher professional fees related to investment banking services
were the primary reasons for the increase in 1996.

Interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 1996 increased to $336,000
as compared to $281,000 in the same period in 1995, primarily as a result of the
addition of ASC interest bearing debt. Other income is primarily interest income
on short-term investments.

The higher effective tax rate for the first quarter of 1996 of 37.0% as compared
to 33.0% for the comparable period of 1995 reflects a reduction in the estimated
state income tax credits related to the Company's location in a designated
revitalization zone.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Company's short-term liquidity needs have generally consisted of operating
capital necessary to fund growth in receivables and inventory. It has satisfied
the short-term requirements with cash generated from operations and secured bank
lines of credit. Long-term liquidity needs generally relate to capital
expenditures necessary to expand the Company's manufacturing operations. The
Company meets its long-term liquidity requirements with cash generated from
operations and five-year secured notes or capital leases with banks and finance
companies. The Company believes that cash generated by operations, supplemented
as necessary with funds expected to be available under its bank credit agreement
(which expires June 30, 1997), will provide sufficient resources to meet present
and reasonably foreseeable working capital requirements, debt service and other
cash needs throughout the term of the agreement.

Cash provided by operations for the three months ended March 31, 1996 was $2.9
million as compared to $1.3 million for the same period of 1995, reflecting the
higher net income in the first quarter of 1996. Cash used for the acquisition of
machinery and equipment was $0.5 million in the first three months of 1996
compared to $2.6 million for the same period of 1995. Cash used in the first
three months of 1996 related to the acquisition of ASC was only $0.1 million
compared to $3.3 million in the first three months of 1995. Cash used in
financing activities during the three months ended March 31, 1996 was $3.4
million as compared to $3.5 million cash provided by financing activities in the
first three months of 1995, due to new long-term debt of $4.0 million in 1995
versus the repayment of $1.5 million on the Company's line of credit and the
purchase of treasury stock in the first three months of 1996.
