PART I

ITEM 1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

GENERAL DEVELOPMENT OF BUSINESS

RADVA Corporation (the "Company") was organized in 1962 as a Virginia
corporation to engage in the production of molded and fabricated products from
expandable polystyrene. Historically, the Company has specialized in the
production of customized expanded polystyrene packaging materials used to
protect products during shipment; however, the Company developed a composite
building panel produced from expanded polystyrene and steel which it sold under
the trademark THERMASTRUCTURE. During 1998, the Company sold 95% of its assets
and interest in the composite building panel system. These assets were then
transferred to a newly organized company, ThermaSteel Corporation, which
continues to market the system worldwide. During 2002, the Company reacquired an
additional 5% interest in Thermasteel Corporation, bringing its interest in
Thermasteel Corporation to 10%. The Company also has a subsidiary, Triter
Corporation, which was formed for the purpose of making the triterine referenced
to in the Annual Report letter.

PROTECTIVE PACKAGING PRODUCTS

RADVA is an industry leader in the design and manufacture of shape molded and
fabricated foam products for material handling, protective packaging, specialty
designs, point of purchase displays, insulated shipping containers, and a
variety of other needs. RADVA products are used in businesses as varied as
consumer electronics, seafood, and furniture.

RADVA's shape molded product line includes a variety of flexible and rigid,
molded and fabricated items from foam resins. RADVA products are offered as
custom-fabricated solutions to customer needs, and as standard shapes and
containers. All products share the same high quality of manufacture.

More than 400 customers, including many Fortune 500 firms, count on RADVA
solutions to help them meet their own customer's needs in a quick,
cost-effective manner.

When RADVA was incorporated in 1962, its primary production material was
expanded polystyrene (EPS). EPS remains a significant base material because of
its low cost and relatively low environmental impact. However, RADVA products
also use a variety of other materials, depending upon the customer's need.
Common materials include ARCEL(R), GECET(R), R-MER(R), EPP and EPE, PE and PU
and thermoformed PVC and styrene.

RADVA is headquartered in Radford, Virginia, and has manufacturing facilities in
Radford and Portsmouth, Virginia. These locations are within a day's drive of 75
percent of the U.S. market. Each facility includes more than 75,000 square feet
of manufacturing and warehouse space with additional off-site warehousing. More
than 35 molding presses, including new, highly efficient Kurtz & Hirsch machines
enable RADVA to meet strict customer requirements quickly and with consistent
high quality. Complete prototype and drop testing capabilities, a tool and die
shop, and very strong supplier relationships enable the firm to develop
creative, cost-effective solutions for customers.

RADVA employs approximately 100 people, and serves as one of the country's
largest three mid-Atlantic EPS recycling drop-off facilities.

RAW MATERIALS AND SUPPLIERS

The principal raw material used by the Company in the production of protective
packaging products is expandable polystyrene resin. This material may be
obtained from several major suppliers. In addition, the Company uses several
copolymer resins in the manufacture of engineered expanded foam protective
packaging. Although the copolymer resins currently used by the Company are only
available from one supplier, similar copolymer resins may be obtained from other
suppliers.

PATENTS AND TRADEMARKS

The Company holds a patent for a new construction material which the Company
plans to market in the future. The Company pursues a policy of filing for
patents on any product development that it considers to be significant.

SEASONALITY

The Company ordinarily experiences a reduction in the manufacture and sale of
protective packaging products during the winter months after filling holiday
season orders. The demand for building products is affected by the level of
activity in the construction industry and housing market and can be expected to
decrease during the fall and winter seasons when there has historically been a
decrease in construction activity and housing sales.

CUSTOMERS

The Company's protective packaging business has a broad base of customers;
however, one customer accounted for approximately 37.0% of protective packaging
revenues in 2002.

BACKLOG

The Company had approximately $1,055,000 in backlog orders for protective
packaging products as of December 31, 2002, compared to backlog orders of
approximately $1,160,000 as of December 31, 2001. Although the Company believes
that such backlog orders are firm, the purchase orders for protective packaging
products generally may be canceled without cause by the customer. The Company
expects to fill all of these orders during 2003.

COMPETITION

The protective packaging business is highly competitive, and some of the
Company's competitors are large and have greater financial and other resources
than the Company. The Company's competition in protective packaging products is
primarily from four local and regional manufacturers with plants within or close
to the Company's market area. The principal elements of competition in the sale
of protective packaging products are price and the ability to service customers.
The Company believes that its technical design facility gives it an advantage
over competitors within its market area.

RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT

The Company maintains a laboratory and testing facility within its manufacturing
plant in Radford, Virginia. The laboratory and testing facilities, which consist
of 2,000 square feet is used for product testing, development of new products,
and quality control evaluations.

REGULATION

The Company is subject to state and federal laws and regulations affecting its
business, including those promulgated under the Occupational Safety and Health
Act ("OSHA") and by the Environmental Protection Agency. The Company's
manufacturing facilities are subject to compliance with comprehensive OSHA
standards. The Company believes that its manufacturing facilities and processes
are currently in compliance with OSHA and does not anticipate capital
expenditures for environmental control facilities or for compliance with OSHA
standards during 2003. The Company does not believe that its compliance with
federal and state environmental regulations has had or will have a material
effect on its capital expenditures, earnings, or competitive position.

EMPLOYEES

The Company employs approximately 100 persons. None of the Company's employees
is represented by a labor union, and the Company believes that its employee

STOCK INFORMATION

ITEM 5. MARKET FOR REGISTRANT'S COMMON EQUITY AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS

MARKET AND PRICE INFORMATION

The Company's common stock, par value $.01 per share (the "Common Stock"), has
been traded in the over-the-counter market since June 1986. The following table
provides the high and low bid quotations with respect to shares of the Common
Stock for the periods indicated as reported by the Dow Jones Historical Stock
Quote Reporter Service.



2002 2001 2000

The foregoing quotations of high and low bid prices represent prices between
dealers and do not include retail mark-up, mark-down, or commissions. They do
not necessarily represent actual transactions. There was no established public
trading market for the Common Stock before June 1986.

The aggregate market value of the voting stock held by non-affiliates of the
Company as of March 7, 2003 shown on the facing page of this report was
calculated as follows: the number of shares beneficially owned by the officers
and directors of the Company as a group as of March 7, 2003 was subtracted from
3,987,987, the total number of shares outstanding on that date, and the
resulting figure was multiplied by $.22, the average of the bid and asked prices
of the Company's stock in the over-the-counter market on March 7, 2003. The
foregoing calculation should not be deemed an admission that any of the officers
or directors of the Company is an "affiliate" of the Company.

NUMBER OF STOCKHOLDERS

As of March 7, 2003 there were 272 record holders of the Common Stock.

DIVIDENDS

The Company has not declared cash dividends on the Common Stock during its three
most recent fiscal years. The declaration and payment of dividends is entirely
within the discretion of the Board of Directors of the Company and will depend
upon the earnings, capital requirements, and financial condition of the Company.
The Company anticipates that it will retain earnings for the next several years
to finance the development of its business.

2002 COMPARED TO 2001

Although net income in 2001, aided by an extraordinary gain of $345,000, was
higher than 2002 by $151,000, the Company's operating income doubled in 2002,
from $124,000 in 2001 to $246,000 in 2002. This increase in operating income was
achieved in spite of a decrease in sales of $278,000. Other income increased due
to the Company having provided $100,000 in managerial services to Thermasteel
Corporation in which the Company has a ten percent ownership interest.

Cost of sales, as a percentage of manufacturing revenues, decreased 3.5%, from
75.5% in 2001 to 72.0% in 2002. The most significant factor contributing to this
decrease in cost percentage was a reduction of the cost of gas and oil of
$309,000.

Shipping and selling expenses, as a percentage of manufacturing revenues,
increased 1.7%, from 8.7% in 2001 to 10.4% in 2002. Freight costs were greater
in 2002 by $239,000 due to a change in some shipping terms from FOB shipping
point to FOB destination. Partly offsetting the increase in freight costs were
reductions in sales salaries and commissions at the Company's Portsmouth plant
of $40,000 and a reduction of driver and shipping labor at the Company's Radford
plant by $51,000.

General and administrative and research and development expenses were little
changed from 2001 to 2002. The research and development expenses are incurred in
the development of a new product, triterine, referenced in the Annual Report
letter which is unrelated to the Company's primary packaging business.

2001 COMPARED TO 2000

The Company's operating income was $124,000 in 2001 compared to an operating
loss of $852,000 in 2000. This dramatic improvement in operations was a result
of many factors and was achieved in spite of a $448,000 reduction in revenues
from $10,077,000 in 2000 to $9,629,000 in 2001. Before allocating interest or
corporate overhead cost, the Radford and Portsmouth plants increased operating
income by $623,000 and $598,000, respectively. This improvement in operating
income resulted from a combination of increased sales prices, sharply lower
costs for raw materials and increased labor efficiency.

Cost of sales, as a percent of manufacturing net revenues, decreased 10.9%, from
86.4% in 2000 to 75.5% in 2001. Among the many factors contributing to this
10.9% reduction in costs were lower raw material prices and increased labor
efficiencies partly offset by increased cost for oil and gas. Raw material costs
percentages decreased from 29.8% in 2000 to 21.9% in 2001 at the Company's
Radford plant and decreased from 43.3% in 2000 to 38.6% in 2001 at the Company's
Portsmouth plant. The higher material cost at the Portsmouth plant results from
the use of a different mix of resins. Labor percentages decreased from 28.0% in
2000 to 25.4% in 2001 at the Company's Radford plant and decreased from 22.5% in
2000 to 18.7% in 2001 at the Company's Portsmouth plant.

Shipping and selling expenses decreased by .5% and general and administrative
expenses increased by .6% in 2001 as compared to 2000. The Company spent
$103,000 on research and development in 2001 in efforts to prepare the Company's
patented new heat resistant building material, Triterine, for production and
marketing which is scheduled for 2002.

The Company negotiated a $400,000 reduction in the amount owed its bank as part
of a successful refinancing effort, resulting in a net extraordinary gain of
$345,000.



8




2000 COMPARED TO 1999

The Company incurred an operating loss in 2000 of $851,922 compared to operating
income of $528,294 in 1999. This reduction in operating income was a result of a
margin squeeze resulting from competitive pressures and rapidly rising
manufacturing costs.

The cost of expandable polystyrene (EPS) has cycles of ups and downs, but there
was an unusually fast rise in EPS cost during the first half of year 2000.
Interest and depreciation cost increased, partly as a result of our having
expanded capacity in 1999 to accommodate anticipated growth. Also, labor rates
increased due to a shortage of workers and the price of natural gas, which is
one of our major manufacturing cost, escalated rapidly.

Cost of sales and shipping and selling expenses increased, as a percentage of
manufacturing net revenues, by 11.6% and 1.8%, respectively. These increases
were primarily a result of the margin squeeze discussed above.

IMPACT OF INFLATION

The Company's standard purchase order form allows it to increase the price of
its protective packaging products on 30 days' notice and, therefore, to pass on
increases in the cost of raw materials. A significant increase in the rate of
inflation and a concomitant increase in interest rates could adversely affect
the Company since a large portion of the Company's indebtedness is linked to the
prime interest rate.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

A major refinancing of the Company was accomplished in 2001 which resulted in
longer amortization of the Company's long-term debt. Working capital increased
from $158,000 at December 31, 2001 to $266,000 at December 31, 2002. The Company
had $65,000 available on its line of credit at year-end.

We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present
fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of RADVA Corporation

RADVA CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARY

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 2002, 2001 AND 2000


NOTE 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

OPERATIONS

RADVA Corporation and subsidiary (the Company) are custom designers of material
handling solutions and manufacturers of protective packaging materials and
containers. The Company operates facilities in Radford and Portsmouth, Virginia.

PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and
its subsidiary, Triter Corporation. There were no inter-company transactions for
the years presented.

CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS

Cash and cash equivalents consist primarily of demand deposits. For purposes of
the statements of cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid
investments with an original maturity of less than three months to be cash
equivalents. The Company includes cash meeting this criteria whose use is
limited by restrictions contained in loan covenants.

ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE

Accounts receivable are stated at cost less allowance for doubtful accounts. The
allowance for doubtful accounts is maintained at a level considered adequate to
provide for losses that can be reasonably anticipated.

INVENTORIES

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost of raw materials,
supplies, work-in process and finished goods is determined by the first-in,
first-out method.

INVESTMENT IN THERMASTEEL CORP.

As part of transferring certain assets and liabilities to Thermasteel Corp.,
Radva retained a 10% ownership interest. Company accounts for this investment on
the cost basis.

OTHER ASSETS

Included in other assets are patents, loan costs and marketing and manufacturing
rights, which are amortized over their respective estimated lives, and trademark
rights, which are amortized over 12 years. Accumulated amortization was
$1,488,596 and $1,433,329 as of December 31, 2002 and 2001, respectively.



18



PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT

Depreciation of plant and equipment is provided on the straight-line basis over
the estimated useful lives of the respective assets as follows:

Buildings and improvements 5 to 30 years
Machinery and equipment 5 to 15 years
Automotive equipment 3 to 5 years
Office equipment 3 to 10 years

Leasehold improvements are amortized on a straight-line basis over the terms of
the respective leases.

Additions to property, plant and equipment are recorded at cost. All
expenditures for repairs, renewals and replacements which do not materially
extend the useful life of the property are charged to expense. Other
improvements and betterments are capitalized. With respect to dispositions, the
asset and accumulated depreciation accounts are relieved of cost and accumulated
depreciation with any resulting gain or loss credited or charged to earnings.

REVENUE RECOGNITION

Net revenues represent sales of protective packaging materials and containers.
Revenues from sales are recognized upon completion of the transaction.


ADVERTISING

Advertising costs are expensed as incurred and included in shipping and selling
expenses. Advertising expense amounted to $12,128, $6,801, and $24,077 for the
years ended December 31, 2002, 2001, and 2000, respectively.

INCOME TAXES

Deferred taxes are provided on a liability method whereby deferred tax assets
are recognized for deductible temporary differences and operating loss and tax
credit carryforwards and deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable
temporary differences. Temporary differences are the differences between the
reported amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax bases. Deferred tax
assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management,
it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets
will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the
effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment.

Investment tax credits are accounted for by the flow-through method whereby they
reduce income taxes currently payable and the provision for income taxes in the
period the assets giving rise to such credits are placed in service. To the
extent such credits are not currently utilized on the Company's tax return,
deferred tax assets, subject to considerations about the need for a valuation
allowance, are recognized for the carryforward amount.

FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 107, "Disclosures about Fair
Value of Financial Instruments," requires disclosure about the fair value of
certain instruments. Cash, receivables, accounts payable and accrued liabilities
are reflected in the financial instruments at fair value because of the
short-term maturity of these instruments. The estimated fair values of the
company's financial instruments are disclosed in Note 3.



19


USE OF ESTIMATES

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America 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 revenues and expenses
during the reporting period. Actual results could vary from the estimates that
were used.

RECLASSIFICATION

Certain reclassifications have been made to prior years' financial statements to
place them on a comparable basis with the current year.


NOTE 2. CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS

Cash and cash equivalents consist of the following:



2002 2001 2000
--------- ------- -------

Petty cash and non-interest bearing accounts $ 108,306 $69,685 $11,048
========= ======= =======


NOTE 3. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of
each class of financial instruments for which it is practicable to estimate that
value:

CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS:

The carrying amount approximates fair value because of the short maturity of
those instruments.

RECEIVABLE - OTHER:

The carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value since entire amount
is due within one year.

LONG-TERM DEBT:

The fair value of the Company's long-term debt is estimated based on the quoted
market prices for the same or similar issues or on the current rates offered to
the Company for debt of the same remaining maturities with similar collateral
requirements.

The estimated fair values of the Company's financial instruments as of December
31, 2002 are as follows:

NOTE 17. CONTINGENCIES

DEBT ASSUMPTION:

On April 1, 1997 Company reacquired certain real estate of Thermastructure, Ltd.
by assuming obligations owed to the Industrial Development Authority (IDA)
amounting to $775,818.

As of December 31, 2002 Company remains primarily liable on debt assumed as part
of transfer of certain real estate. Outstanding balance on this debt amounted to
$481,600 as of December 31, 2002.

NOTE 18. NET INCOME PER COMMON SHARE AND COMMON SHARE EQUIVALENT

Basic earnings per share excludes dilution and is computed by dividing net
income by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the
period. Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the sum
of the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period and
the number of equivalent shares assumed outstanding under the Company's stock
option plans and convertible preferred stock outstanding.

Options held to purchase 400,000 common shares at $.81 were not dilutive and
were outstanding at December 31, 2002 and 2001. These shares are not included in
the diluted earnings per share calculation because the options' exercise price
was greater than the average market price of the common shares. Diluted earnings
per share was calculated as follows:

The Company has 600,000 shares of 8% cumulative convertible preferred stock
outstanding. The preferred stock is convertible into common stock based on its
liquidation amount ($.50 per share of $300,000) plus any accrued and unpaid
dividends (none as of 12/31/02). The conversion price for the common stock is
$0.50 per share which equates to 600,000 shares of common stock potentially
being issued.

NOTE 19. STOCK OPTION PLANS

The Company has two Stock Option Plans, the 1998 Stock Option Plan and the 1998
Non-employee Directors Stock Option Plan. Both Plans contained retroactive
effective dates of July 8, 1998 and September 28, 1998, respectively.

The Company's 1998 Stock Option Plan (the Plan) authorizes the granting of stock
options, up to a total of 375,000 shares of common stock, to any employee of the
Company. Under the Plan, the exercise price of each option equals fair market
value of the Company's stock on the grant date, and an option's maximum term is
ten years. If the employee is a 10% shareholder the exercise price of each
option shall not be less than 110% of the fair market value on the grant date,
and an option's maximum term is five years.

The Company's 1998 Non-employee Directors Stock Option Plan (the Plan)
authorizes the granting of stock options, up to a total of 125,000 shares of
common stock, to the directors of the Company who are not otherwise employees of
the Company or any Subsidiary and were not employees for a period of at least
one year before the date of grant of an option under the Plan. Under the Plan,
the exercise price of each option equals fair market value of the Company's
stock on grant date, and an option's maximum term is ten years.

A summary of the status of the Company's Stock Option Plans as of December 31,
2002, and the changes during the year is presented below:



FIXED OPTIONS SHARES WEIGHTED-AVERAGE EXERCISE PRICE
------------- ------ -------------------------------

January 1, 2002 400,000 $ .81
Granted - -
Exercised - -
Forfeited - -
-------
December 31, 2002 400,000 $ .81
=======

Exercisable at December 31, 2002 400,000 $ .81

Options available for grant at December 31, 2002 100,000 $ .81


The range of option prices for options outstanding as of December 31, 2002, was
$.81 with a weighted average remaining contractual life of approximately 6
years.

If the Company had used the fair value based method of accounting for its
Employee Stock Option Plan, as prescribed by Statements of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 123, compensation cost in net income for the year ended December
31, 2002 would have increased by $324,000, resulting in net loss of $(197,782)
net of tax. The basic and diluted earnings per share would have been $(.05) and
$(.04), respectively.

The fair value of each option grant of $.81 is estimated on the date of grant
using the exercise price since fair value could not be reasonably estimated at
grant date.

NOTE 20. STOCK REPURCHASE PLAN

Board of Directors has authorized the Company to repurchase up to 200,000 shares
of the Company's common stock. The Company has purchased 187,240 shares pursuant
to the Stock Repurchase Plan.


26



NOTE 21. INVESTMENT IN THERMASTEEL

During 1998, the Company acquired a 5% interest in Thermasteel Corporation. The
initial 5% interest and promissory notes from Thermasteel were received in
exchange for receivables, inventory, investments, fixed assets, licenses,
patents, and trademarks. The net investment in the 5% interest as a result of
this transaction was $261,925. During 2002, a portion of the promissory notes
from Thermasteel were forgiven in exchange for an additional 5% interest. This
transaction resulted in an increase in the investment in Thermasteel of
$296,140. The total investment in Thermasteel as of December 31, 2002 is
$558,065.
