NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Information at September 30, 2002 and 2001 and for the
three and nine months then ended is unaudited)
Note 1. Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Silgan
Holdings Inc. have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States for interim financial information and
with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X.
Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required
by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for complete
financial statements. In the opinion of management, the accompanying financial
statements include all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals)
considered necessary for a fair presentation. The results of operations for any
interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations for
the full year.
The condensed consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2001 has been derived
from our audited financial statements at that date, but does not include all of
the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States for complete financial statements.
You should read the accompanying financial statements in conjunction with our
consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual
Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2001.
Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform with the current
year's presentation.
Note 2. Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
Business Combinations and Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets
- --------------------------------------------------------------
Effective January 1, 2002, we adopted Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards, or SFAS, No. 141, "Business Combinations," and SFAS No. 142,
"Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets." SFAS No. 141 revises the accounting
treatment for business combinations to require the use of purchase accounting
and prohibit the use of the pooling-of-interests method for business
combinations initiated after June 30, 2001. SFAS No. 142 revises the accounting
for goodwill to eliminate amortization of goodwill on transactions consummated
after June 30, 2001 and of all other goodwill as of January 1, 2002. Other
intangible assets will continue to be amortized over their useful lives. SFAS
No. 142 also requires goodwill and other intangibles to be assessed for
impairment each year and more frequently if circumstances indicate a possible
impairment. During the second quarter of 2002, we completed the initial
transitional impairment test as of January 1, 2002 and determined that goodwill
was not impaired.

Note 2. Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements (continued)
Impairment and Disposal of Long-Lived Assets and Discontinued Operations
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------
Effective January 1, 2002, we adopted SFAS No. 144, "Accounting for the
Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets." SFAS No. 144 supercedes SFAS No.
121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived
Assets to be Disposed Of," and the accounting and reporting provisions of
Accounting Principles Board, or APB, No. 30, "Reporting the Results of
Operations - Reporting the Effects of Disposal of a Segment of a Business, and
Extraordinary, Unusual and Infrequently Occurring Events and Transactions." SFAS
No. 144 provides updated guidance concerning the recognition and measurement of
an impairment loss for certain types of long-lived assets and expands the scope
of a discontinued operation to include a component of an entity. The adoption of
SFAS No. 144 on January 1, 2002 did not impact our financial position or results
of operations.
Extinguishment of Debt and Various Technical Corrections
- --------------------------------------------------------
In April 2002, the Financial Accounting Standards Board, or FASB, issued SFAS
No. 145, "Rescission of FASB Statements No. 4, 44 and 64, Amendment of FASB
Statement No. 13, and Technical Corrections." Among other provisions, SFAS No.
145 rescinds SFAS No. 4, "Reporting Gains and Losses from Extinguishment of
Debt," and SFAS No. 64, "Extinguishment of Debt Made to Satisfy Sinking-Fund
Requirements," such that most gains or losses from the extinguishment of debt
will no longer be classified as extraordinary items. The provisions of SFAS No.
145 related to the rescission of SFAS No. 4 and SFAS No. 64 are effective for us
on January 1, 2003. Upon adoption in 2003, we expect to reclassify previously
reported extraordinary items from the early extinguishment of debt to income
from operations.
Costs Associated With Exit or Disposal Activities
- -------------------------------------------------
In June 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 146, "Accounting for Costs Associated
with Exit or Disposal Activities." SFAS No. 146 addresses accounting and
reporting for costs associated with exit or disposal activities and nullifies
Emerging Issues Task Force, or EITF, Issue No. 94-3, "Liability Recognition for
Certain Employee Termination Benefits and Other Costs to Exit an Activity
(including Certain Costs Incurred in a Restructuring)." SFAS No. 146 requires
the recognition of a liability for a cost associated with an exit or disposal
activity when the liability is incurred. Under EITF Issue No. 94-3, a liability
for an exit cost was recognized at the date an entity committed to an exit plan.
The provisions of SFAS No. 146 are effective for exit or disposal activities
that are initiated after December 31, 2002.

Note 3. Rationalization (Credits) Charges and Acquisition Reserves
As part of our plans to integrate the operations of our various acquired
businesses, including the Food Metal and Specialty business of American National
Can Company, or AN Can, and to rationalize certain facilities, we have
established reserves for employee severance and benefits, plant exit costs and
acquisition liabilities. Except for certain contractual obligations, these costs
are expected to be incurred primarily through 2002. Activity in our
rationalization and acquisition reserves since December 31, 2001 is summarized

During the fourth quarter of 2001, we approved and announced to employees
separate plans to exit our Northtown, Missouri and Kingsburg, California metal
food container manufacturing facilities and to cease operation of our composite
container department at our Waukegan, Illinois metal food container
manufacturing facility. These decisions resulted in a fourth quarter
rationalization charge of $7.0 million, consisting of $4.2 million for the
non-cash write-down in carrying value of assets, $1.4 million for employee
severance and benefits and $1.4 million for plant exit costs.

Note 3. Rationalization (Credits) Charges and Acquisition Reserves (continued)
During the third quarter of 2002, in order to support new business we decided to
continue to operate our Kingsburg manufacturing facility. As a result, we
recorded a $2.1 million rationalization credit, which consisted of $1.5 million
related to certain assets with carrying values that were previously written down
but will now remain in service and $0.6 million for the reversal of
rationalization reserves related to employee severance and benefits and plant
exit costs. The assets that will remain in service were recorded in our
Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets at their depreciated cost, which
approximated fair value. Also, during the third quarter of 2002, all actions
related to our rationalization plans for our Northtown and Waukegan
manufacturing facilities related to employee severance and benefits and plant
exit costs were completed at amounts less than originally estimated, and,
accordingly, we reversed $0.2 million of rationalization reserves as a
rationalization credit.
During the first quarter of 2002, certain assets of our metal food container
business with carrying values that were previously written down were placed back
in service. As a result, we recorded a $2.3 million rationalization credit and
recorded those assets in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets at their
depreciated cost, which approximated fair value.
During the first quarter of 2001, we recorded a rationalization charge of $3.5
million relating to closing our Fairfield, Ohio plastic container manufacturing
facility. This charge consisted of $2.6 million for plant exit costs and $0.9
million for employee severance and benefits. During the third quarter of 2002,
all actions related to employee severance and benefits under this plan were
completed at amounts less than originally estimated, and, accordingly, we
reversed $0.3 million of rationalization reserves as a rationalization credit.
During the first nine months of 2001, we utilized $5.2 million of
rationalization and acquisition reserves which were comprised of $1.4 million
for employee severance and benefits, $1.6 million for plant exit costs and $2.2
million for acquisition liabilities.
Rationalization and acquisition reserves are included in the Condensed
Consolidated Balance Sheets as follows:

Note 6. Investment in Affiliate
Effective July 1, 2001, we formed a joint venture company with Schmalbach-Lubeca
AG (whose interest in the joint venture was recently purchased by Amcor, Ltd.)
that supplies an extensive range of metal and plastic closures to the food and
beverage industries in North America. The joint venture operates under the name
Amcor White Cap LLC, or White Cap. We contributed certain metal closure assets
and liabilities, including our manufacturing facilities in Evansville and
Richmond, Indiana, in return for a 35 percent interest in and $32.4 million of
cash proceeds from the joint venture.

On April 29, 2002, we issued an additional $200 million aggregate principal
amount of our 9% Senior Subordinated Debentures due 2009, or the 9% Debentures,
in a private placement. The newly issued 9% Debentures were an add-on issuance
under the Indenture for our existing 9% Debentures originally issued in June
1997. The terms of the newly issued 9% Debentures are identical to the existing
9% Debentures issued in June 1997 except that the newly issued 9% Debentures
were subject to certain transfer restrictions until we completed a registered
exchange offer on October 28, 2002.

9% Debentures (continued)
- -------------
The issue price for the new 9% Debentures was 103 percent of their principal
amount. Net cash proceeds received from this issuance were approximately $202
million, after deducting selling commissions and offering expenses payable by
us. The net proceeds from this issuance were used to repay a portion of our
revolving loan obligations under our previous U.S. senior secured credit
facility, or the U.S. Credit Agreement.
Bank Credit Agreement
- ---------------------
On June 28, 2002, we completed the refinancing of our U.S. Credit Agreement by
entering into a new $850 million senior secured credit facility, or the New
Credit Agreement. Our New Credit Agreement provides us with $100 million of A
term loans, $350 million of B term loans and up to $400 million of revolving
loans. Pursuant to the New Credit Agreement, we also have a $275 million
incremental uncommitted term loan facility.
Revolving loans may be used for working capital needs and other general
corporate purposes, including acquisitions. Revolving loans may be borrowed,
repaid and reborrowed over the life of the New Credit Agreement until their
final maturity. We are required to maintain, for at least one period of 30
consecutive days during each calendar year, total average unutilized revolving
loan commitments of at least $90 million. The A term loans and revolving loans
mature on June 28, 2008 and the B term loans mature on November 30, 2008.
Principal on the A term loans and B term loans is required to be repaid in
scheduled annual installments during each of the years set forth below and
amounts repaid may not be reborrowed (dollars in thousands):

-------- --------
$100,000 $350,000

The New Credit Agreement requires us to prepay term loans with proceeds received
from the incurrence of indebtedness, except proceeds used to refinance other
existing indebtedness; with proceeds received from certain assets sales; and,
under certain circumstances, with 50 percent of our excess cash flow. Generally,
prepayments are allocated pro rata to the A term loans and B term loans and
applied first to the scheduled amortization payments in the year of such
prepayments and, to the extent in excess thereof, pro rata to the remaining
installments of term loans.

Note 7. Long-Term Debt (continued)
Bank Credit Agreement (continued)
- ---------------------
The incremental uncommitted term loan facility provides, among other things,
that any incremental term loan borrowing shall be denominated in a single
currency, either U.S. dollars or certain foreign currencies; have a maturity
date no earlier than the maturity date for the B term loans; and be used to
finance permitted acquisitions, refinance any indebtedness assumed as part of a
permitted acquisition, refinance or repurchase subordinated debt and repay
outstanding revolving loans.
Borrowings under the New Credit Agreement may be designated as base rate or
Eurodollar rate borrowings. The base rate is the higher of the prime lending
rate of Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas or 1/2 of one percent in excess of
the overnight federal funds rate. Initially, the interest rate for all loans
under the New Credit Agreement is the base rate plus a margin of one percent or
the Eurodollar rate plus a margin of two percent. After December 31, 2002, the
interest rate margin on base rate and Eurodollar rate borrowings will be reset
quarterly based upon our Total Leverage Ratio, as defined in the New Credit
Agreement.
The New Credit Agreement provides for the payment of a commitment fee ranging
from 0.25 percent to 0.50 percent per annum on the daily average unused portion
of commitments available under the revolving loan facility. Initially, the
commitment fee will be 0.50 percent per annum. After December 31, 2002, the
margin will be reset quarterly based on our Total Leverage Ratio.
We may utilize up to a maximum of $50 million of our revolving loan facility
under the New Credit Agreement for letters of credit as long as the aggregate
amount of borrowings of revolving loans and letters of credit do not exceed the
amount of the commitment under such revolving loan facility. The New Credit
Agreement provides for payment to the applicable lenders of a letter of credit
fee equal to the applicable margin in effect for revolving loans maintained as
Eurodollar rate loans and to the issuers of letters of credit of a facing fee of
1/4 of one percent per annum, calculated on the aggregate stated amount of all
letters of credit.
The indebtedness under the New Credit Agreement is guaranteed by us and certain
of our U.S. subsidiaries and is secured by a security interest in substantially
all of our real and personal property. The stock of certain of our U.S.
subsidiaries has also been pledged as security to the lenders under the New
Credit Agreement. The New Credit Agreement contains certain financial and
operating covenants which limit, among other things, our ability and the ability
of our subsidiaries to grant liens, sell assets and use the proceeds from
certain asset sales, make certain payments (including dividends) on our capital
stock, incur indebtedness or provide guarantees, make loans or investments,
enter into transactions with affiliates, make certain capital expenditures,
engage in any business other than the packaging business, and, with respect to
our subsidiaries, issue stock. In addition, we are required to meet specified
financial covenants including Interest Coverage and Total Leverage Ratios, each
as defined in the New Credit Agreement. We are currently in compliance with all
covenants under the New Credit Agreement.

Note 7. Long-Term Debt (continued)
Bank Credit Agreement (continued)
- ---------------------
At September 30, 2002, there were $148.0 million of revolving loans outstanding
under the New Credit Agreement related primarily to seasonal working capital
needs. We currently expect to repay $148.0 million of revolving loans and $1.8
million of term loans within one year.
As a result of this refinancing, we recorded an extraordinary charge of $0.6
million, net of income taxes, or $0.03 per diluted share, in the second quarter
of 2002 for the write-off of unamortized financing costs related to the U.S.
Credit Agreement.
Interest Rate Swap Agreements
- -----------------------------
In August 2002, we entered into interest rate swap agreements for an aggregate
notional principal amount of $200 million. Under these agreements, we will pay a
fixed rate of interest ranging from 2.5 to 2.7 percent and receive a floating
rate of interest based on three month LIBOR. These agreements are effective
starting in January 2003 and mature in July 2004. These agreements are accounted
for as cash flow hedges.
Note 8. Business Segment Information
Historically, we reported the results of our specialty packaging business as a
separate business segment, which included our metal closures, Omni plastic
container, Polystar easy-open plastic end and paperboard container businesses.
As a result of the White Cap joint venture on July 1, 2001, we no longer report
the results of our remaining specialty packaging businesses as a separate
business segment. The results of the Omni plastic container and Polystar
easy-open plastic end businesses are reported with our plastic container
business, and the results of the paperboard container business are reported with
our metal food container business. The results of our metal closures business,
which was contributed to the White Cap joint venture, are reported separately.
Prior year amounts have been restated to conform with the current presentation.

Three Months Ended September 30, 2002 Compared with Three Months Ended September
30, 2001
Net Sales. Consolidated net sales increased $50.1 million, or 8.5 percent, to
$640.9 million for the third quarter of 2002, as compared to net sales of $590.8
million for the third quarter of 2001. This increase was the result of higher
net sales in the metal food container business and, to a lesser extent, higher
net sales in the plastic container business.
Net sales for the metal food container business were $517.3 million for third
quarter of 2002, an increase of $45.3 million, or 9.6 percent, from net sales of
$472.0 million for the same period in 2001. This increase was primarily
attributable to an 8.9 percent increase in unit volume as a result of new
business and a stronger fruit and vegetable pack as compared to last year.
Net sales for the plastic container business of $123.6 million for the three
months ended September 30, 2002 increased $4.8 million, or 4.0 percent, from net
sales of $118.8 million for the same period in 2001. This increase was primarily
a result of higher unit volume, partially offset by lower average selling prices
due principally to a less favorable sales mix.
-21-
Cost of Goods Sold. Cost of goods sold was 87.3 percent of consolidated net
sales for the third quarter of 2002, an increase of 0.7 percentage points as
compared to 86.6 percent for the same period in 2001. The metal food container
and the plastic container businesses both experienced a decrease in gross
margin. The decrease in the metal food container business was primarily
attributable to higher manufacturing costs to initially absorb new business, the
effect of price adjustments related to certain contract negotiations, higher
depreciation expense and increased health and welfare costs, partially offset by
higher volume and the elimination of goodwill amortization. In the plastic
container business, the decline in gross margin resulted primarily from a less
favorable sales mix and higher employee health and welfare costs, partially
offset by the elimination of goodwill amortization.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. Selling, general and
administrative expenses were $20.4 million, or 3.2 percent of consolidated net
sales, for the third quarter of 2002 as compared to $18.7 million, or 3.2
percent of consolidated net sales, for the same period in 2001. Selling, general
and administrative expenses in the plastic container business increased as a
result of higher selling and commercial development expenses.
Income from Operations. Excluding the rationalization credits, income from
operations for the third quarter of 2002 increased $0.6 million, or 1.0 percent,
to $60.9 million as compared to $60.3 million for the same period in 2001.
Income from operations for the third quarter of 2001 included $1.3 million of
goodwill amortization. Excluding the benefit from the elimination of goodwill
amortization, income from operations decreased primarily as a result of lower
income from operations in the plastic container business, partially offset by
higher income from operations in the metal food container business. Excluding
the rationalization credits, operating margin declined 0.7 percentage points to
9.5 percent for the third quarter of 2002, as compared to 10.2 percent for the
same period in 2001, primarily as a result of lower margins in both the metal
food container and plastic container businesses. Including the rationalization
credits, income from operations and operating margin for the third quarter of
2002 were $63.5 million and 9.9 percent, respectively.
In the third quarter of 2002, we recorded rationalization credits of $2.3
million primarily related to the decision to support new business by continuing
to operate a metal food container manufacturing facility that was previously
expected to be closed and $0.3 million related to certain aspects of a
rationalization plan to close a plastic container manufacturing facility that
were completed at amounts less than originally estimated.
Excluding the rationalization credit of $2.3 million, income from operations of
the metal food container business in the third quarter of 2002 increased $1.7
million, or 3.3 percent, to $53.1 million as compared to $51.4 million for the
third quarter of 2001. Excluding the rationalization credit, operating margin
decreased 0.6 percentage points to 10.3 percent in the third quarter of 2002 as
compared to 10.9 percent for the same period in 2001. Income from operations of
the metal food container business for the third quarter of 2001 included $0.6
million of goodwill amortization. The increase in income from operations was
principally due to higher sales and the elimination of goodwill amortization,
largely offset by higher manufacturing costs to initially absorb new business,
the effect of price adjustments related to certain contract negotiations,
increased depreciation expense and higher health and welfare costs. Including
the rationalization credit, income from operations and operating margin for the
third quarter of 2002 were $55.4 million and 10.7 percent, respectively.
-22-
Excluding the rationalization credit of $0.3 million, income from operations for
the plastic container business for the third quarter of 2002 decreased $0.8
million, or 7.9 percent, to $9.3 million as compared to $10.1 million for the
same period in 2001, and operating margin decreased 1.0 percentage points to 7.5
percent as compared to 8.5 percent for the third quarter of 2001. Income from
operations of the plastic container business for the third quarter of 2001
included $0.7 million of goodwill amortization. The decrease in income from
operations and operating margin was primarily a result of a less favorable sales
mix, higher selling and commercial development expenses and higher employee
health and welfare costs, partially offset by higher sales and the elimination
of goodwill amortization. Including the rationalization credit, income from
operations and operating margin of the plastic container business were $9.6
million and 7.8 percent, respectively, for the third quarter of 2002.
Interest Expense. Interest expense increased $0.3 million to $20.0 million for
the third quarter of 2002 as compared to the same period in 2001. The increase
in interest expense was primarily the result of a higher average interest rate
due to the add-on issuance of $200 million of 9% Debentures and higher interest
rate spreads over LIBOR as a result of the refinancing of the U.S. Credit
Agreement, both of which occurred in the second quarter of 2002. The effect of
the higher average interest rate was largely offset by approximately $35 million
in lower average borrowings as compared to the same period in 2001.
Income Taxes. During the third quarter of 2002, we increased our estimated
annual effective tax rate to 39.5 percent and adjusted the estimated income tax
rates used in prior quarters through the third quarter provision for income
taxes. The provision for income taxes for the third quarter of 2002 and 2001 was
recorded at an effective annual income tax rate of 39.9 percent and 40.2
percent, respectively.
Net Income and Earnings per Share. Net income for the third quarter of 2002 was
$26.2 million, or $1.42 per diluted share, as compared to net income of $27.3
million, or $1.50 per diluted share, for the third quarter of 2001. Net income
for the third quarter of 2002 included rationalization credits of $2.6 million,
or $0.08 per diluted share. Net income for the third quarter of 2001 included a
gain on assets contributed to the White Cap joint venture of $5.3 million, or
$0.17 per diluted share.
Excluding the rationalization credits, earnings were $24.6 million, or $1.34 per
diluted share, for the third quarter of 2002. Excluding the gain on assets
contributed to the White Cap joint venture, earnings were $24.1 million, or
$1.33 per diluted share, for the third quarter of 2001.
SFAS No. 142, "Accounting for Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets," required us
to eliminate the amortization of goodwill effective January 1, 2002. For the
third quarter of 2001, we recorded goodwill amortization of approximately $1.3
million, or $0.05 per diluted share.
Nine Months Ended September 30, 2002 Compared with Nine Months Ended September
30, 2001.
Net Sales. Consolidated net sales increased $41.7 million, or 2.8 percent, to
$1.521 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2002, as compared to net
sales of $1.480 billion for the first nine months in 2001. This increase was
largely the result of higher unit volume of the metal food container business,
partially offset by the impact of contributing the metal closure business to the
White Cap joint venture. Excluding net sales of $46.3 million of the metal
closure business in 2001, net sales for the first nine months of 2002 increased
$88.0 million, or 6.1 percent, as compared to the same period in the prior year.
-23-
Net sales for the metal food container business were $1.144 billion for the nine
months ended September 30, 2002, an increase of $88.9 million, or 8.4 percent,
from net sales of $1.055 billion for the same period in 2001. This increase was
primarily attributable to higher unit volume as a result of new business and a
stronger fruit and vegetable pack as compared to last year.
Net sales for the plastic container business of $377.1 million for the nine
months ended September 30, 2002 decreased $0.9 million, or 0.2 percent, from net
sales of $378.0 million for the same period in 2001. This decrease was primarily
a result of lower average selling prices due to the pass through of lower resin
costs and a less favorable mix, largely offset by higher unit volume.
Cost of Goods Sold. Cost of goods sold was 87.4 percent of consolidated net
sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2002, essentially unchanged as
compared to the same period in 2001. Higher volume and the elimination of
goodwill amortization in both the metal food container and the plastic container
businesses offset the effect of price adjustments related to certain contract
negotiations, higher manufacturing costs to initially absorb new business and
higher depreciation expense in the metal food container business.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. Selling, general and
administrative expenses were $58.6 million, or 3.9 percent of consolidated net
sales, for the nine months ended September 30, 2002, as compared to $56.7
million, or 3.8 percent, for the same period in 2001. This increase was
primarily due to higher selling and commercial development expenses in the
plastic container business, partially offset by the impact of contributing the
metal closure business to the White Cap joint venture.
Income from Operations. Excluding rationalization credits and charges in both
periods, income from operations for the first nine months of 2002 increased $2.0
million, or 1.5 percent, to $132.5 million as compared to $130.5 million in the
same period in 2001. Income from operations for the first nine months of 2001
included $3.9 million of goodwill amortization and $3.3 million of income from
operations from the metal closure business which was contributed to the White
Cap joint venture in 2001. Excluding rationalization credits and charges in both
periods, the benefit from the elimination of goodwill amortization and income
from operations of the metal closure business, income from operations for the
first nine months of 2002 increased as compared to the same period in 2001
primarily due to higher income from operations in the metal food container
business. Excluding rationalization credits and charges in both periods,
operating margin decreased 0.1 percentage points to 8.7 percent as compared to
8.8 percent for the same period in 2001 as a result of lower operating margin in
the metal food container business, partially offset by higher operating margin
in the plastic container business. Including the effects of rationalization
credits and charges, income from operations for the first nine months of 2002
increased $10.4 million, or 8.2 percent, to $137.4 million as compared to $127.0
million in the same period in 2001.
In the third quarter of 2002, we recorded rationalization credits of $2.3
million primarily related to the decision to support new business by continuing
to operate a metal food container manufacturing facility that was previously
expected to be closed and $0.3 million related to certain aspects of a
rationalization plan to close a plastic container manufacturing facility that
were completed at amounts less than originally estimated. In the first quarter
of 2002, we recorded a rationalization credit of $2.3 million primarily relating
to certain assets of our metal food container business previously written down
that were placed back in service. In the first quarter of 2001, we recorded a
rationalization charge of $3.5 million relating to closing a plastic container
manufacturing facility.
-24-
Excluding rationalization credits in 2002, income from operations of the metal
food container business for the first nine months of 2002 increased $5.0
million, or 5.5 percent, to $95.7 million as compared to $90.7 million for the
first nine months of 2001, while operating margin decreased 0.2 percentage
points to 8.4 percent as compared to 8.6 percent for the same period in 2001.
Income from operations of the metal food container business for the first nine
months of 2001 included $1.8 million of goodwill amortization. The increase in
income from operations was principally due to higher unit volume and the
elimination of goodwill amortization, partially offset by the effect of price
adjustments related to certain contract negotiations, higher manufacturing costs
incurred to initially absorb new business and increased depreciation expense.
Including the rationalization credits, income from operations of the metal food
container business was $100.3 million and operating margin was 8.8 percent for
the nine months ended September 30, 2002.
Excluding rationalization credits and charges in both periods, income from
operations for the plastic container business for the nine months ended
September 30, 2002 increased $1.2 million, or 3.0 percent, to $41.0 million as
compared to $39.8 million for the same period in 2001, and operating margin
increased 0.4 percentage points to 10.9 percent as compared to 10.5 percent for
the first nine months of 2001. Income from operations of the plastic container
business for the first nine months of 2001 included $2.1 million of goodwill
amortization. Excluding the benefit from the elimination of goodwill
amortization, income from operations and operating margin of the plastic
container business for the first nine months of 2002 decreased primarily as a
result of higher selling and commercial development expenses. Including the
effects of rationalization credits and charges in both periods, income from
operations and operating margin for the plastic container business were $41.3
million and 11.0 percent, respectively, for the first nine months of 2002 and
$36.3 million and 9.6 percent, respectively, for the same period in 2001.
Interest Expense. Interest expense decreased $8.9 million to $54.9 million for
the nine months ended September 30, 2002 as compared to the same period in 2001.
This decrease resulted from approximately $80 million in lower average
borrowings as compared to the same period last year and a lower average interest
rate. Despite the add-on issuance of $200 million of 9% Debentures and higher
interest rate spreads over LIBOR as a result of the refinancing of the U.S.
Credit Agreement, we experienced a lower average interest rate for the first
nine months of 2002 as compared to the first nine months of 2001 as a result of
lower LIBOR rates.
Income Taxes. The provision for income taxes for the nine months ended September
30, 2002 and 2001 was recorded at an estimated effective annual income tax rate
of 39.5 percent and 40.2 percent, respectively.
Net Income and Earnings per Share. Net income for the first nine months of 2002
was $47.6 million, or $2.59 per diluted share, as compared to net income of
$37.0 million, or $2.05 per diluted share, for the first nine months of 2001.
Net income for the first nine months of 2002 included our share of White Cap's
rationalization charge of $2.0 million, net of tax, or $0.11 per diluted share,
and our share of White Cap's gain on the sale of assets of $0.7 million, net of
tax, or $0.04 per diluted share. Net income for the first nine months of 2002
also included rationalization credits totaling $4.9 million, or $0.16 per
diluted share, and an extraordinary charge, net of tax, of $0.6 million, or
$0.03 per diluted share, for the write-off of unamortized financing costs as a
result of the refinancing of the U.S. Credit Agreement. Net income for the first
nine months of 2001 included a rationalization charge of $3.5 million, or $0.12
per diluted share, a gain on assets contributed to White Cap of $5.3 million, or
$0.18 per diluted share, and equity in losses of Packtion Corporation, or
Packtion, a now dissolved e-commerce packaging venture, of $3.8 million, or
$0.21 per diluted share.
-25-
Excluding our share of White Cap's rationalization charge and White Cap's gain
on the sale of assets and the rationalization credits and extraordinary charge
in 2002, earnings for the first nine months of 2002 were $46.6 million, or $2.53
per diluted share. Excluding the rationalization charge, the gain on assets
contributed to White Cap and equity in losses of Packtion, earnings were $39.7
million, or $2.20 per diluted share, for the first nine months of 2001.
SFAS No. 142 required us to eliminate the amortization of goodwill effective
January 1, 2002. For the first nine months of 2001, we recorded goodwill
amortization of approximately $3.9 million, or $0.12 per diluted share.
CAPITAL RESOURCES AND LIQUIDITY
Our principal sources of liquidity have been net cash from operating activities
and borrowings under our revolving loan facilities. Our liquidity requirements
arise primarily from our obligations under the indebtedness incurred in
connection with our acquisitions and the refinancing of that indebtedness,
capital investment in new and existing equipment and the funding of our seasonal
working capital needs.
On April 29, 2002, we issued an additional $200 million aggregate principal
amount of our 9% Debentures in a private placement. The newly issued 9%
Debentures were an add-on issuance under the Indenture for our existing 9%
Debentures originally issued in June 1997. The terms of the newly issued 9%
Debentures are identical to the existing 9% Debentures issued in June 1997
except that the newly issued 9% Debentures were subject to certain transfer
restrictions until we completed a registered exchange offer on October 28, 2002.
The issue price for the newly issued 9% Debentures was 103 percent of their
principal amount. Net cash proceeds received from this issuance were
approximately $202 million, after deducting selling commissions and offering
expenses payable by us. The net proceeds from this issuance were used to repay a
portion of our revolving loan obligations under the U.S. Credit Agreement.
On June 28, 2002, we completed the refinancing of the U.S. Credit Agreement by
entering into a new $850 million senior secured credit facility. The New Credit
Agreement provides us with $100 million of A term loans, $350 million of B term
loans and a revolving loan facility of up to $400 million. Under the New Credit
Agreement, we may use revolving loans for working capital and other operating
needs as well as for acquisitions and other permitted purposes. The A term loans
and revolving loan facility mature on June 28, 2008 and the B term loans mature
on November 30, 2008. The New Credit Agreement also provides us with an
incremental uncommitted term loan facility of up to an additional $275 million
which may be used to finance acquisitions and for other permitted purposes.
Under the New Credit Agreement, the interest rate for all loans will be either
the Eurodollar rate plus a margin or the prime lending rate of Deutsche Bank
Trust Company Americas plus a margin. Initially, the margin for Eurodollar rate
loans is two percent and the margin for prime rate loans is one percent.
Starting in 2003, the margins are subject to adjustment quarterly based upon
financial ratios. Prior to the refinancing, the interest rate for A term loans
and revolving loans under the U.S. Credit Agreement was the Eurodollar rate plus
a margin of one percent or the prime lending rate of Deutsche Bank Trust Company
Americas and for B term loans an additional 0.5 percent.
-26-
As a result of the refinancing of the U.S. Credit Agreement with the New Credit
Agreement and the net proceeds from the add-on issuance of our 9% Debentures, we
expect that our interest expense will increase during the fourth quarter of 2002
as compared to the fourth quarter of 2001.
For the first nine months of 2002, we used proceeds of $206.0 million from the
add-on issuance of 9% Debentures, proceeds from stock option exercises of $4.3
million and proceeds from asset sales of $0.8 million to fund capital
expenditures of $77.6 million, cash used in operations of $66.2 million
primarily for our seasonal working capital needs, net repayments of revolving
loans and long-term debt of $43.9 million and debt issuance costs of $21.6
million and to increase cash balances by $1.8 million.
For the first nine months of 2001, we used net borrowings of revolving loans of
$134.4 million under the U.S. Credit Agreement, cash proceeds from White Cap of
$32.4 million, proceeds from stock option exercises of $1.0 million and proceeds
from asset sales of $0.3 million to fund cash used by operations of $86.1
million primarily for our seasonal working capital needs, capital expenditures
of $67.0 million, the repayment of $6.3 million of long-term debt and our
investment in Packtion of $3.0 million and to increase cash balances by $5.7
million.
Because we sell metal containers used in fruit and vegetable pack processing, we
have seasonal sales. As is common in the industry, we 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 our seasonal requirements, we incur
short-term indebtedness to finance our working capital requirements.
During the third quarter of 2002, at our seasonal borrowing peak we had $226.1
million of revolving loans outstanding under our senior secured credit
facilities related primarily to seasonal working capital requirements. We may
use the available portion of our revolving loan facilities, after taking into
account our seasonal needs and outstanding letters of credit, for acquisitions
and other permitted purposes.
As of September 30, 2002, we had $148.0 million of revolving loans outstanding
under the New Credit Agreement which related primarily to seasonal working
capital needs. The unused portion of revolving loan commitments under our credit
facilities at September 30, 2002, after taking into account outstanding letters
of credit, was $239.2 million.
Our Board of Directors has authorized the repurchase of up to $70 million of our
common stock. As of September 30, 2002, we have repurchased 2,708,975 shares of
our common stock for an aggregate cost of approximately $61.0 million. We intend
to finance future repurchases, if any, of our common stock with revolving loan
borrowings.
During the third quarter of 2002, we recorded rationalization credits of $2.3
million primarily related to the decision to support new business by continuing
to operate a metal food container manufacturing facility that was previously
expected to be closed and $0.3 million related to certain aspects of a
rationalization plan to close a plastic container manufacturing facility that
were completed at amounts less than originally estimated. During the first
quarter of 2002, we recorded a $2.3 million rationalization credit related to
certain assets of our metal food container business with carrying values
previously written down that were placed back in service. During the first
quarter of 2001, we recorded a rationalization charge of $3.5 million related to
closing one plastic container manufacturing facility. You should also read Note
3 to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for the three and nine
months ended September 30, 2002 included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report.
-27-
We believe that cash generated from operations and funds from the revolving
loans available under our senior secured credit facilities will be sufficient to
meet our expected operating needs, planned capital expenditures, debt service
and tax obligations for the foreseeable future. We are also continually
evaluating and pursuing acquisition opportunities in the consumer goods
packaging market and may incur additional indebtedness, including indebtedness
under our senior secured credit facilities, to finance any such acquisition.
We are in compliance with all financial and operating covenants contained in the
financing agreements governing our indebtedness and believe that we will
continue to be in compliance with all such covenants during 2002.
RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
Effective January 1, 2002, we adopted SFAS No. 141, "Business Combinations," and
SFAS No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets." SFAS No. 141 revises the
accounting treatment for business combinations to require the use of purchase
accounting and prohibit the use of the pooling-of-interests method for business
combinations initiated after June 30, 2001. SFAS No. 142 revises the accounting
for goodwill to eliminate amortization of goodwill on transactions consummated
after June 30, 2001 and of all other goodwill as of January 1, 2002. Other
intangible assets will continue to be amortized over their useful lives. SFAS
No. 142 also requires goodwill and other intangibles to be assessed for
impairment each year and more frequently if circumstances indicate a possible
impairment. During the second quarter of 2002, we completed the initial
transitional impairment test as of January 1, 2002 and determined that goodwill
was not impaired.
Effective January 1, 2002, we adopted SFAS No. 144, "Accounting for the
Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets." SFAS No. 144 supercedes SFAS No.
121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived
Assets to be Disposed Of," and the accounting and reporting provisions of APB
No. 30, "Reporting the Results of Operations - Reporting the Effects of Disposal
of a Segment of a Business, and Extraordinary, Unusual and Infrequently
Occurring Events and Transactions." SFAS No. 144 provides updated guidance
concerning the recognition and measurement of an impairment loss for certain
types of long-lived assets and expands the scope of a discontinued operation to
include a component of an entity. The adoption of SFAS No. 144 on January 1,
2002 did not impact our financial position or results of operations.
In April 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 145, "Rescission of FASB Statements No.
4, 44 and 64, Amendment of FASB Statement No. 13, and Technical Corrections."
Among other provisions, SFAS No. 145 rescinds SFAS No. 4, "Reporting Gains and
Losses from Extinguishment of Debt," and SFAS No. 64, "Extinguishment of Debt
Made to Satisfy Sinking-Fund Requirements," such that most gains or losses from
the extinguishment of debt will no longer be classified as extraordinary items.
The provisions of SFAS No. 145 related to the rescission of SFAS No. 4 and SFAS
No. 64 are effective for us on January 1, 2003. Upon adoption in 2003, we expect
to reclassify previously reported extraordinary items from the early
extinguishment of debt to income from operations.
-28-
In June 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 146, "Accounting for Costs Associated
with Exit or Disposal Activities." SFAS No. 146 addresses accounting and
reporting for costs associated with exit or disposal activities and nullifies
EITF Issue No. 94-3, "Liability Recognition for Certain Employee Termination
Benefits and Other Costs to Exit an Activity (including Certain Costs Incurred
in a Restructuring)." SFAS No. 146 requires the recognition of a liability for a
cost associated with an exit or disposal activity when the liability is
incurred. Under EITF Issue No. 94-3, a liability for an exit cost was recognized
at the date an entity committed to an exit plan. The provisions of SFAS No. 146
are effective for exit or disposal activities that are initiated after December
31, 2002.
CERTIFICATIONS UNDER SECTION 906 OF THE SARBANES-OXLEY ACT OF 2002
The written certifications of both of our Co-Chief Executive Officers and of our
Chief Financial Officer with respect to this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, as
required by Section 906 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (18 U.S.C. Section
1350), have been submitted to the Securities and Exchange Commission as
additional correspondence accompanying this Quarterly Report.
Item 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURE ABOUT MARKET RISK
---------------------------------------------------------
Market risks relating to our operations result primarily from changes in
interest rates. In the normal course of business, we also have limited foreign
currency risk associated with our Canadian operations and risk related to
commodity price changes for items such as natural gas. We employ established
policies and procedures to manage our exposure to these risks. Interest rate,
foreign currency and commodity pricing transactions are used only to the extent
considered necessary to meet our objectives. We do not utilize derivative
financial instruments for trading or other speculative purposes.
Information regarding our interest rate risk, foreign currency exchange rate
risk and commodity pricing risk has been disclosed in our Annual Report on Form
10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2001. Since such filing, there has
not been a material change to our interest rate risk, foreign currency rate risk
or commodity pricing risk or to our policies and procedures to manage our
exposure to these risks, except that we have entered into additional interest
rate swap agreements. You should also read Note 7 to our Condensed Consolidated
Financial Statements for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2002
included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report.
Item 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
-----------------------
Within the 90 days prior to the date of this Quarterly Report, we carried out an
evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of management,
including our Co-Chief Executive Officers and Chief Financial Officer, of the
effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule
13a-14(c) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934). Based upon that evaluation,
our Co-Chief Executive Officers and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the
disclosure controls and procedures are effective in ensuring that all material
information required to be disclosed in this Quarterly Report has been made
known to them in a timely fashion.
There were no significant changes in our internal controls or in other factors
that could significantly affect these internal controls subsequent to the date
of our most recent evaluation.

4-460, June 27, 2002) and with which copies of such statements were
furnished.
3. On August 14, 2002, we filed a Current Report on Form 8-K which
indicated pursuant to Item 9 that the written certifications of both
of our Co-Chief Executive Officers and our Chief Financial Officer, as
