REDDY ICE HOLDINGS, INC, AND SUBSIDIARY

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)

FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2004

1. General

The condensed consolidated financial statements of Reddy Ice Holdings, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiary (the “Company”) included herein are unaudited, except for the balance sheet as of December 31, 2003 that has been prepared from the audited financial statements for that date. These financial statements have been prepared by the Company pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). As applicable under the SEC’s regulations, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated upon consolidation, and all adjustments which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods covered have been made and are of a normal and recurring nature. Accounting measurements at interim dates inherently involve greater reliance on estimates than at year end and are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year. The financial statements included herein should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the related notes thereto included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2003.

Reddy Ice Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Parent”), and its wholly owned subsidiary, Cube Acquisition Corp. (“Cube”), a Texas corporation, were formed on behalf of Trimaran Fund Management LLC (“Trimaran”) and Bear Stearns Merchant Banking (“Bear Stearns”) on May 8, 2003 for the purpose of acquiring Packaged Ice, Inc. (“Packaged Ice”) and effecting certain capital transactions in connection with such acquisition. On August 15, 2003, Cube merged with and into Packaged Ice, with Packaged Ice being the surviving corporation. As a result of the merger, Packaged Ice was delisted from the American Stock Exchange. The Parent and Cube conducted no operations during the period from May 8, 2003 through August 14, 2003. In connection with the merger, Packaged Ice was renamed Reddy Ice Group, Inc. (“Reddy Group”). The Parent and its wholly owned subsidiary Reddy Group are referred to collectively herein as the “Company” or “Successor”. Packaged Ice prior to the merger on August 15, 2003 is referred to as the “Predecessor”. As a result of purchase accounting, the Predecessor balances and amounts presented in these consolidated financial statements and footnotes may not be comparable to the Successor balances and amounts.

The Company manufactures and distributes packaged ice products and bottled water and owns and operates refrigerated warehouses. The Company is the largest manufacturer of packaged ice products in the United States. The Company serves approximately 82,000 customer locations in 32 states and the District of Columbia.

2. Stock-Based Compensation

At March 31, 2004, the Company had one stock-based employee compensation plan, the Reddy Ice Holdings, Inc. 2003 Stock Option Plan (the “Stock Option Plan”), under which stock options are granted from time to time. All of the Predecessor’s stock-based compensation plans were terminated and all in-the-money options were paid out in cash in connection with the merger on August 15, 2003 (see Notes 1 and 3).

The Company accounts for the Stock Option Plan under the intrinsic value method prescribed by APB Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees,” and related Interpretations. No stock-based employee compensation cost is reflected in the net loss available to common shareholders for the three months ended March 31, 2004 as all stock options granted under the Stock Option Plan had an exercise price equal to or greater than the market value of the underlying common stock on the date of grant. The following table illustrates the effect on the net loss available to common shareholders if the Company had applied the fair

value recognition provisions of stock-based compensation as described in SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation,” as amended by SFAS 148, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation Transition and Disclosure.”

3. Acquisitions

On August 15, 2003, Cube merged with and into Packaged Ice, with Packaged Ice being the surviving corporation. Concurrent with the closing of the merger, Packaged Ice was named Reddy Ice Group, Inc. The merger was consummated pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of May 12, 2003, by and among the Parent, Cube and Packaged Ice. Subsequent to the merger, all of the Company’s operations were conducted through Reddy Group. The merger was accounted for as a purchase by Cube of Packaged Ice in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.141, “Business Combinations.” Total consideration was $461.0 million, including $113.0 million for common and preferred securities, $316.7 million for assumption of debt and revolving loans, $12.8 million for debt issue costs and $18.5 million in direct merger costs. The total purchase price was allocated to the acquired assets and assumed liabilities based upon estimates of their respective fair values as of the closing date using valuations and other studies. The excess of the aggregate purchase price over the liabilities assumed of $280.9 million was allocated to property and equipment ($42.8 million), goodwill and other intangible assets ($289.0 million), assets held for sale ($0.2 million) and net deferred tax liabilities ($51.1 million). Other intangibles identified included customer lists, which are being amortized over useful lives of 15 to 30 years, and a trade name.

The Company purchased the Service Ice division of L.D. Plante, Inc. (“Service Ice”) and Triangle Ice Co., Inc. (“Triangle Ice”) on October 1, 2003 and November 6, 2003, respectively. The total acquisition consideration was $68.7 million ($3.2 for Service Ice and $65.5 for Triangle Ice), which included debt issue costs of $0.7 million and direct acquisition costs of $0.6 million. The excess of the aggregate purchase price over the net assets acquired of $56.6 million was allocated to property and equipment ($11.9 million), goodwill and other intangible assets ($52.7 million) and net deferred tax liabilities ($8.0 million). Other intangible assets were comprised of customer lists, which are being amortized over useful lives of 15 to 30 years.

The results of operations of Service Ice and Triangle Ice are included in the Company’s consolidated results of operations from October 1, 2003 and November 1, 2003, respectively. The following unaudited pro forma information presents the Predecessor’s consolidated results of operations for the three months ended

March 31, 2003 as if the acquisitions of Packaged Ice, Service Ice and Triangle Ice had all occurred on January 1, 2003:

	Three Months Ended March 31, 2003

During the three months ended March 31, 2004, the Company completed three acquisitions for a total cash purchase price of approximately $1.1 million. Annual revenues associated with these acquisitions is approximately $0.8 million. Information regarding pro forma revenues and net income (loss) available to common shareholders has not been provided as the acquisitions are immaterial individually and in the aggregate.

4. Inventories

Inventories contain raw materials, supplies and finished goods. Raw materials and supplies consist of ice packaging materials, spare parts, bottled water supplies and merchandiser parts.

6. Line of Credit and Long-Term Obligations

On July 17, 2003, Cube completed the sale of $152 million of 8-7/8% Senior Subordinated Notes due August 1, 2011 (the “Senior Notes”). The Senior Notes were issued in connection with a private placement offering and were subsequently registered with the SEC. The Senior Notes were sold at 99.297% of the stated principal amount, which resulted in net proceeds of $150.9 million. At the closing of the merger on August 15, 2003, Reddy Group assumed Cube’s obligations under the Senior Notes and the related indenture and received the net proceeds of the offering. The net proceeds were used to consummate the merger as discussed in Notes 1 and 3, which included the repayment of the Predecessor’s $255 million aggregate principal amount of 9-3/4% Senior Notes due February 1, 2005 and the outstanding balance of $61.7 million under its bank credit facility.

Interest on the Senior Notes is payable semiannually on February 1 and August 1, commencing on February 1, 2004. In conjunction with issuance of the Senior Notes, $7.0 million of debt issuance costs were incurred. The Senior Notes are unsecured senior subordinated obligations of Reddy Group and are:

• subordinated in right of payment to all of Reddy Group’s existing and future senior indebtedness;

• equal with any of the Reddy Group’s existing and future senior subordinated indebtedness; and

• senior to any other of Reddy Group’s future subordinated indebtedness, if any.

The Senior Notes include customary covenants that restrict, among other things, the ability to incur additional debt, pay dividends or make certain other restricted payments, incur liens, merge or sell all or substantially all of the assets, or enter into various transactions with affiliates. Prior to August 1, 2006, Reddy Group may redeem up to 35% of the principal amount of the notes at a redemption price of 108.875% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the date of redemption, with funds raised in specified equity offerings.

The Senior Notes are guaranteed, fully, jointly and severally, and unconditionally, on a senior subordinated basis by the Parent and all of Reddy Group’s subsidiaries (the “Subsidiary Guarantors”). There are currently no restrictions on the ability of the Subsidiary Guarantors to transfer funds to Reddy Group in the form of cash dividends, loans or advances. Condensed consolidating financial statements for the Parent and its wholly-owned subsidiary are not presented as the Parent has no significant independent assets or operations. Condensed consolidating financial statements for Reddy Group and its subsidiaries, all of which are wholly owned, are not presented as Reddy Group has no significant independent assets or operations. Reddy Group has no subsidiaries that do not guarantee the Senior Notes.

On August 15, 2003, Reddy Group entered into a $170 million senior secured credit facility, with the lenders being a syndicate of banks, financial institutions and other entities, including Credit Suisse First Boston as Administrative Agent, Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce and Bear Stearns Corporate Lending, Inc. (the “Credit Facility”). The Credit Facility provides for a six-year term loan in the amount of $135 million (the “Original Term Loan”) and a five-year revolving credit facility (the “Line of Credit”) in the amount of $35 million. Proceeds of the Original Term Loan were used to consummate the merger as discussed in Note 3. On November 6, 2003, the Credit Facility was amended to provide a Supplemental Term Loan (together with the Original Term Loan, referred to as the “Term Loans”) in the amount of $45 million, the proceeds of which were used to fund a portion of the Triangle Ice acquisition (see Note 3). The Supplemental Term Loan has substantially the same terms as the Original Term Loan.

At March 31, 2004, the Company had $17.0 million of availability under the Line of Credit, net of outstanding standby letters of credit of $9.3 million. The standby letters of credit are used primarily to secure certain insurance obligations.

Principal balances outstanding under the Credit Facility bear interest per annum, at Reddy Group’s option, at the sum of the base rate plus the applicable margin or LIBOR plus the applicable margin. The base rate is defined as the greater of the prime rate (as announced from time to time by the Administrative Agent) or the federal funds rate plus 0.5%. The applicable margin is different for revolving and term loans and varies depending on Reddy Group’s leverage ratio. On February 20, 2004, the Credit Facility was amended to reduce the applicable margin on term loans by 0.5%. At March 31, 2004, the weighted average interest rate of borrowings outstanding under the Credit Facility was 3.69%. Interest on base rate loans is payable on the last day of each quarter. Interest on LIBOR loans is payable upon maturity of the LIBOR loan or on the last day of the quarter if the term of the LIBOR loan exceeds 90 days. Reddy Group pays a quarterly fee on the average availability under the Line of Credit based on an annual rate of 0.5%.

The Credit Facility requires that beginning in 2004, Reddy Group will repay all borrowings under the Line of Credit and maintain a zero outstanding balance for a period of 30 consecutive calendar days during each year. The Term Loans amortize in quarterly installments over a five-year period in an annual aggregate amount equal to 1% of the original balance, with any remaining unpaid balance to be repaid in the sixth year in equal, quarterly installments. Subject to certain conditions, mandatory repayments of the Line of Credit and Term Loans are required to be made with portions of the proceeds from (1) asset sales, (2) the issuance of debt securities (3) an initial public offering of stock of the Parent, and (4) insurance and condemnation awards. Furthermore, within 100 days after close of the each fiscal year (beginning with the close of the 2004 fiscal year), a mandatory prepayment of the Term Loans is required in an amount equal to a certain percentage of Reddy Group’s annual excess cash flow, as defined in the Credit Facility. The percentage is based on Reddy Group’s leverage ratio at the end of such fiscal year and ranges from 25% to 75%.

The Credit Facility contains financial covenants which include limitations on capital expenditures and the maintenance of certain financial ratios, as defined in the Credit Facility, and is collateralized by substantially all of Reddy Group’s assets and the capital stock of all of its significant subsidiaries. At March 31, 2004, Reddy Group was in compliance with these covenants.

On November 28, 2000, the Predecessor entered into an interest rate collar agreement (the “Collar Agreement”), which remained in effect after the merger. Under the Collar Agreement, if the Index Rate (30-day LIBOR, as defined in the Collar Agreement) exceeds 7.75%, Reddy Group will receive the difference between the Index Rate and 7.75%. If the Index Rate falls below 5.75%, Reddy Group will pay the difference plus 1%. Any amounts payable or receivable are settled monthly. The Collar Agreement has a notional amount of $50 million and a term of 4 years. When Reddy Group’s debt was refinanced on August 15, 2003, $0.3 million of amounts previously deferred in accumulated other comprehensive loss on the balance sheet were written off as the hedged, forecasted transaction was no longer deemed probable of occurring. The Collar Agreement was redesignated as a hedge of the new Credit Facility, with subsequent changes in fair value deferred in other comprehensive income or loss.

If Reddy Group had been required to settle the Collar Agreement as of March 31, 2004, it would have had to pay $1.9 million plus accrued interest of $0.2 million. Reddy Group is exposed to credit risk in the event of nonperformance by the counterparty to the Collar Agreement, however it anticipates that the counterparty will fully perform its obligations under the Collar Agreement.

At March 31, 2004 and December 31, 2003, long-term obligations consisted of the following:

	March 31, 2004			December 31, 2003
	(in thousands)

8-7/8% Senior Notes	$	152,000		$	152,000
Less: Unamortized debt discount on 8-7/8% Senior Notes	(980		)	(1,013		)
Credit facility – term loans	179,100			179,550
Other	392			410
Total long-term obligations	330,512			330,947
Less: Current maturities	1,865			1,859
Long-term obligations, net	$	328,647		$	329,088

7. Capital Stock

Common Stock. The Company is authorized to issue up to 300,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share. Holders of the Company’s common stock are entitled to one vote per share on all matters to be voted on by shareholders and are entitled to receive dividends, if any, as may be declared from time to time by the Board of Directors of the Company. Upon any liquidation or dissolution of the Company, the holders of common stock are entitled, subject to any preferential rights of the holders of preferred stock, to receive a pro rata share of all of the assets remaining available for distribution to shareholders after payment of all liabilities. As of March 31, 2004, 11,434 shares of common stock were reserved for issuance under the Reddy Ice Holdings, Inc. 2003 Stock Option Plan.

Preferred Stock. The Company is authorized to issue up to 200,000 shares of $0.01 par value preferred stock, consisting of 100,000 shares of Series A Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock (“Series A Preferred Stock”) and 100,000 shares of preferred stock that is currently undesignated. The liquidation preference per share of the Series A Preferred Stock is equal to the sum of (a) $1,000 plus (b) the amount of all accumulated but unpaid dividends on such shares. The holders of the outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock immediately preceding the dividend payment date shall be entitled to receive dividends, as declared by the Board of Directors, at a rate per annum equal to 12% of the liquidation amount per share. All dividends are cumulative, whether or not earned or declared, accruing on a daily basis from the issue date and shall be payable in cash quarterly in arrears on each dividend payment date commencing on November 15, 2003. If the Company does not pay the cash dividends on a quarterly basis, all unpaid dividends will be added to the liquidation amount in respect of such shares on each dividend payment date. If the Company fails to make a liquidation payment following the occurrence of a liquidation event or default, as defined in the agreement, the per annum dividend rate will be increased by 2% per annum during the continuation of any such event or default. In the event of liquidation, the holders of the Series A shares are entitled to an amount in cash equal to the liquidation amount for each share. The Company may redeem the Series A shares at its option in whole at any time or in part from time to time, subject to restrictions as defined in the agreement. Series A holders are not entitled or permitted to vote on any matter upon which the holders of common stock are required or permitted to vote upon.

8. Commitments and Contingencies

The Company is involved in various claims, lawsuits and proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business. There are uncertainties inherent in the ultimate outcome of such matters and it is impossible to presently determine the ultimate costs that may be incurred. Other than those lawsuits described below, management believes the resolution of such uncertainties and the incurrence of such costs will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

The Company is a party to a lawsuit in connection with an ammonia release at its Baton Rouge, Louisiana manufacturing facility in June 2001. The case, which is a consolidation of seven lawsuits, is titled Wallace Acey, Jr. et al vs. Reddy Ice Corporation. This lawsuit was filed August 30, 2001 in the 19th Judicial District Court, Parish of East Baton Rouge, Louisiana and has been assigned docket number 487373 Division N. There are multiple plaintiffs who have primarily alleged injuries consisting of inconvenience, watery eyes and offensive odors. The plaintiffs have not made a specific request for relief in the lawsuit. The Company maintains insurance to cover such events and its insurance carrier is contesting the suit and plans to vigorously defend against any claims.

The Company is a party to two lawsuits filed in connection the merger. The first lawsuit was filed on May 23, 2003 in the County Court at Law Number 1, Dallas County, Texas and is titled Cause No. CC-03-06056-A; Glenn Robbins, On Behalf of Himself and All Others Similarly Situated, and Derivatively on Behalf of Packaged Ice, Inc. vs. William P. Brick, Jimmy C. Weaver, A.J. Lewis III, Tracy L. Noll, Robert G. Miller, Steven P. Rosenberg and Richard A. Coonrod, Defendants, and Packaged Ice, Inc., a Texas corporation. The second lawsuit was filed on May 23, 2003 in County Court at Law Number 3, Dallas County, Texas, and is titled Cause No. CC-03-06055-C, Imperial County, On Behalf of Itself and All Others Similarly Situated, and Derivatively on Behalf of Packaged Ice, Inc. vs. William P. Brick, Jimmy C. Weaver, A.J. Lewis III, Tracy L. Noll, Robert G. Miller, Steven P. Rosenberg and Richard A. Coonrod, Defendants, and Packaged Ice, Inc., a Texas corporation. The two lawsuits are identical adversarial proceedings filed by two shareholders on their own behalf, on behalf of a purported class, and derivatively on behalf of Packaged Ice, Inc., now known as Reddy Group. The plaintiffs allege various breaches of fiduciary duty by the Board of Directors of Reddy Group and unjust enrichment related to the merger. The claims allege that Reddy Group failed to maximize shareholder value in the merger transaction. No specific amount of damages has been claimed. Reddy Group has answered both suits and filed a Motion to Consolidate, Special Exceptions, and Motion to Dismiss, or, in the alternative, Motion to Stay in the Robbins action. The Company has also filed a Motion to Stay and Special Exception and Motion to Dismiss in the Imperial County action. The plaintiffs filed Responses in Opposition to these motions on July 16, 2003. Based on those filings, Reddy Group removed both cases to the United States District Court for the Northern District of Texas Dallas Division on July 25, 2003. Plaintiffs opposed removal and filed motions to remand as to both actions on August 21, 2003. The Court remanded the actions to state court on February 19, 2004.

These lawsuits are still in a preliminary stage and the ultimate outcomes are impossible to determine at this time. An unfavorable result in excess of the available insurance coverage could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

9. Segment Information

The Company has two reportable segments: (1) ice products and (2) non-ice products and services. Ice products include the manufacture and distribution of packaged ice products through traditional ice manufacturing and delivery and THE ICE FACTORY®. The Ice Factory is a proprietary machine that produces, packages, stores and merchandises ice at the point of sale through an automated, self-contained

system. Non-ice products and services include refrigerated warehouses and the manufacturing and distribution of bottled water.

The Company evaluates performance of each segment based on earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, gain or loss on disposition of assets, impairment of assets, gain on extinguishment of debt and the cumulative effect of changes in accounting principles (“Segment EBITDA”). Segment assets are not a factor in the evaluation of performance. There were no intersegment sales during the three months ended March 31, 2004 and 2003. Segment information for the three months ended March 31, 2004 and 2003 was as follows:

10. Subsequent Events

During the period of April 1, 2004 to May 11, 2004, the Company completed the acquisition of three ice companies for a total cash purchase price of approximately $4.1 million. The combined annual revenue for the acquired businesses is approximately $5 million.

General

We are the largest manufacturer and distributor of packaged ice in the United States and currently serve approximately 82,000 customer locations in 32 states and the District of Columbia. We operate in two business segments—ice products and non-ice products and operations. Ice products accounted for approximately 90% of our revenues in the three months ended March 31, 2004 and 86% of revenues in the three months ended March 31, 2003. Due to acquisitions of certain ice companies in the fourth quarter of 2003 (see “-Acquisitions” below), the proportion of our ice sales has increased. We expect the annual proportion of ice sales to increase from 92% in 2003 to approximately 93% - 94% in 2004. Our ice products business consists of the following two activities:

• the traditional manufacture and delivery of ice from a central point of production to the point of sale; and

• the installation and operation of the Ice Factory, our proprietary equipment located in our customers’ high volume locations that produces, packages and stores ice through an automated, self-contained system.

Our other business segment, non-ice products and operations, consists of refrigerated warehousing for third parties and the manufacture and sale of bottled water. This business segment accounted for 10% of our revenues in the three months ended March 31, 2004 and 14% of revenues in the three months ended March 31, 2003. As noted above, the proportion of sales due to our non-ice segment has decreased due to the acquisition of ice companies in the fourth quarter of 2003 (see “-Acquisitions” below). On an annual basis, we expect this percentage to decrease from 8% in 2003 to approximately 6% - 7% in 2004.

Revenues. Our revenues primarily represent sales of packaged ice, packaged ice bags for use in our Ice Factory equipment, bottled water and cold storage services. There is no right of return with respect to these products or services. A portion of our revenue also represents fees earned under management agreements for Ice Factories located outside our primary territories that are recognized as earnings under contract terms.

Cost of Sales. Our cost of sales includes costs associated with labor, raw materials, product delivery and utilities related to the manufacture and distribution of our products. Labor costs, including associated payroll taxes and benefit costs included in cost of sales, accounted for approximately 35% of sales in the three months ended March 31, 2004 and 2003. Raw materials consist primarily of polyethylene-based plastic bags, which represented approximately 7% of sales in the three months ended March 31, 2004 and 2003. Product delivery expenses include labor, fuel and vehicle rental expense related to products delivered by our own distribution network, as well as fees paid to distributors who deliver ice to our customers on our behalf. Fuel purchased for delivery by our own distribution network represented approximately 3% of sales in the three months ended March 31, 2004 and 2003. Expenses for independent third party distribution services represented approximately 4% of sales in the three months ended March 31, 2004 and 2003. Utility expenses consist primarily of electricity used in connection with the manufacturing, storage and distribution processes and represented approximately 7% of sales in the three months ended March 31, 2004 and 2003. Ice Factory revenues do not increase our plant occupancy, delivery or utility costs, however, we do incur costs associated with customer service representatives and machine technicians which are included in our cost of sales.

Operating Expenses. Our operating expenses are costs associated with selling, general and administrative functions. These costs include executive officers’ compensation, office and administrative salaries, insurance, legal and other professional services and costs associated with leasing office space. Labor costs, including associated payroll taxes and benefit costs, included in operating expenses represented approximately 14% and 13% of sales in the three months ended March 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively.

Our results of operations are highly seasonal, characterized by peak demand during the warmer months of May through September, with an extended peak selling season in the southern United States. As a result of this seasonality and the fixed costs in our business, the proportion of revenues earned in our ice and non-ice business segments and the ratio of costs to revenues in any given quarter are not necessarily indicative of the ratios for a full year. Revenues within specific markets can also be affected by weather conditions, with cool or rainy weather negatively impacting demand and extremely hot weather increasing our costs as we respond to excess customer demand for our products. Approximately 68%, 68% and 66% of our revenues occurred during the second and third calendar quarters in 2001, 2002 and 2003, respectively. We believe that approximately 68% of our revenues will occur during the second and third calendar quarters in 2004. As a result of seasonal revenue declines and a less than proportional decline in expenses during the first and fourth quarters, we typically experience lower profit margins resulting in losses during these periods. In addition, because a significant portion of our annual sales are generated during the second and third calendar quarters, our annual results of operations may fluctuate significantly if the weather during these periods is cool or rainy.

Acquisitions. On October 1, 2003, we, acquired the “Service Ice” division of L.D. Plante, Inc. (“Service Ice”) for total consideration of $3.1 million (subject to customary post-closing adjustments). Service Ice operated one ice manufacturing facility in Orlando, Florida and was the largest supplier of packaged ice in Orlando with annual revenues of approximately $3.8 million. On November 6, 2003, we purchased all of the outstanding shares of capital stock of Triangle Ice Co., Inc. (“Triangle Ice”) for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $64.3 million (subject to customary post-closing adjustments). Triangle Ice operates primarily in North and South Carolina and had annual revenues of approximately $30 million. During the three months ended March 31, 2004, we completed three acquisitions for a total purchase price of $1.1 million. Annual revenue associated with these acquisitions is approximately $0.8 million.

At March 31, 2004, we owned or operated 55 ice manufacturing facilities, 52 distribution centers, approximately 79,000 merchandisers (cold storage units installed at customer locations), approximately 3,000 Ice Factories, six refrigerated warehouses and one bottled water plant. We had an aggregate daily ice manufacturing capacity of approximately 16,000 tons, the equivalent of 4.5 million seven pound bags of ice.

On August 15, 2003, Packaged Ice, Inc. merged with Cube Acquisition Corp., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Reddy Ice Holdings, Inc. (the “Merger”). Packaged Ice was the surviving corporation, changed its name to Reddy Ice Group, Inc. and became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Reddy Holdings, which was established on May 8, 2003. The following discussion of the results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2004 versus the three months ended March 31, 2003 is based on the results of Packaged Ice for the three months ended March 31, 2003 and Reddy Holdings for the three months ended March 31, 2004. Reddy Holdings and Cube Acquisition conducted no operations from May 8, 2003 through August 14, 2003. Reddy Holdings and Reddy Group are collectively referred to as the ‘‘Successor”. Packaged Ice prior to the Merger is referred to as the “Predecessor”. Because of purchase accounting, certain amounts may not be comparable between the Predecessor and Successor.

Revenues: Revenues increased $4.8 million from the three months ended March 31, 2003 to the three months ended March 31, 2004. This increase is primarily due to the acquisitions of Service Ice and Triangle Ice in October 2003 and November 2003, respectively. These acquisitions provided additional revenue of $4.1 million in the three months ended March 31, 2004. Excluding the effects of the Service Ice and Triangle Ice acquisitions, revenues in our ice business increased $1.3 million, which was primarily driven by volume increases. Offsetting the improved revenues in our ice business was a decline of $0.6 million in our non-ice operations. The decline was caused primarily by a reduction in volumes in our cold storage operations as a result of the restructuring of a certain customer contract in the second quarter of 2003.

Cost of Sales: Cost of sales increased $2.7 million from the three months ended March 31, 2003 to the three months ended March 31, 2004. This increase in cost of sales is primarily due to (i) $3.2 million of costs in the three months ended March 31, 2004 associated with the operations acquired from Service Ice and Triangle Ice, (ii) a $0.3 million increase in costs in our other ice operations related to increased volume sales noted above, offset by the elimination of certain operating lease expenses associated with our Ice Factories and (iii) a $0.8 million decrease in costs of sales associated with our non-ice operations. The decrease in costs in our non-ice operations is due to headcount reductions and the restructuring of a certain cold storage customer contract in the second quarter of 2003, which resulted in a reduction in cold storage volumes.

Operating Expenses: Operating expenses increased $1.0 million from the three months ended March 31, 2003 to the three months ended March 31, 2004. This increase is primarily due to $0.9 million of costs in the three months ended March 31, 2004 attributable to the operations of Service Ice and Triangle Ice.

Depreciation and Amortization: Depreciation and amortization decreased $0.2 million from the three months ended March 31, 2003 to the three months ended March 31, 2004. This decrease is primarily due to the revaluation of our property and equipment in connection with the Merger on August 15, 2003, offset by additional depreciation and amortization expense of $0.8 million associated with the Service Ice and Triangle Ice acquisitions.

Interest Expense: Interest expense decreased $1.7 million from the three months ended March 31, 2003 to the three months ended March 31, 2004. This decrease is primarily due to lower average outstanding borrowings under our line of credit and lower average interest rates, which resulted from the refinancing of our debt on August 15, 2003.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We generate cash from the sale of packaged ice through traditional delivery methods, by which we manufacture, package and store ice at a central facility and transport it to our customers’ retail locations when needed, and through Ice Factories, which manufacture, package and store ice in ourcustomers’ retail locations. Our primary uses of cash are (a) cost of sales, (b) operating expenses, (c) debt service, (d) capital expenditures related to replacing and modernizing the capital equipment in our traditional ice plants and acquiring and installing additional Ice Factories and (e) acquisitions. Historically, we have financed our capital and working capital requirements, including our acquisitions, through a combination of cash flows from operations, borrowings under our revolving credit facilities and operating leases.

During the three months ended March 31, 2004, capital expenditures totaled $3.1 million. We estimate that our capital expenditures for 2004 will approximate $15 million, which includes the effect of all acquisitions closed through May 11, 2004, and will primarily be used to maintain and expand our traditional ice operations. There can be no assurance that capital expenditures will not exceed this estimate. As we have consolidated acquisitions into the existing company infrastructure, we have identified non-core and excess assets which can be disposed of. From time to time, we also dispose of other assets which are no longer useful in our operations. As a result of dispositions of these non-core and excess assets, we realized proceeds of approximately $0.3 million in the three months ended March 31, 2004 and estimate that we will generate total proceeds of approximately $1.5 million to $2.0 million in 2004.

During the three months ended March 31, 2004, we completed the acquisition of three small ice companies for a total cash purchase price of approximately $1.1 million. During the period April 1, 2004 to May 11, 2004, we have completed another three acquisitions for a total cash purchase price of approximately $4.1 million. We will continue to evaluate small acquisition opportunities as they become available. In conjunction with these evaluations, we will consider our liquidity, availability under our revolving line of credit, mandatory principal repayments under our debt agreements and availability of other capital resources.

Cash Flows for the Three Months Ended March 31, 2004 and 2003

Net cash used by operating activities was $12.7 million and $22.2 million the three months ended March 31, 2004 and the three months ended March 31, 2003, respectively. The increase from 2003 to 2004 was a result of improved results of operations and a reduction in cash flows used by changes in working capital. In the three months ended March 31, 2003, changes in working capital accounts used cash of $13.3 million, primarily related to the payment of accrued incentive compensation earned in 2002 and the payment of accrued interest on our 9-3/4% senior notes. In the three months ended March 31, 2004, changes in working capital accounts used $7.2 million of cash, which was primarily due to the payment of incentive compensation amounts that were accrued in 2003 and the payment of accrued interest on our 8-7/8% senior notes.

Net cash used in investing activities was $3.9 million and $1.7 million in the three months ended March 31, 2004 and the three months ended March 31, 2003, respectively. The increase in cash used by investing activities from 2003 to 2004 is primarily due to the expenditure of $1.1 million in the three months ended March 31, 2004 for three small acquisitions of ice companies and a reduction of $0.7 million in proceeds generated from the sale of excess and non-core assets.

Net cash provided by financing activities was $7.7 million and $18.7 in the three months ended March 31, 2004 and the three months ended March 31, 2003, respectively. Borrowings under our line of credit decreased from $18.7 million in the three months ended March 31, 2003 to $8.7 million in the three months ended March 31, 2004 due to the net decrease in cash flows used in operating and investing activities discussed above and the higher balance of cash on hand at the beginning of the three months ended March 31, 2004 as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2003. Cash on hand was $12.8 million and $6.5 million at December 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively. In the three months ended March 31, 2004, we also incurred $0.5 million of debt issuance costs in connection with the execution of the second amendment to our credit facility and made principal payments on our debt that were $0.4 million greater than in the three months ended March 31, 2003.

Long-term Debt and Other Obligations

At March 31, 2004, we had approximately $339.2 million of total debt outstanding as follows: $151.0 million of Reddy Group’s 8-7/8% senior notes due August 1, 2011 (net of discount of $1.0 million); $179.1 million outstanding term loans under Reddy Group’s senior credit facility which matures on August 15, 2009; $8.7 million outstanding on Reddy Group’s line of credit which matures on August 15, 2008; and $0.4 million of other debt.

On July 17, 2003, we issued $152.0 million of 8-7/8% senior subordinated notes. These notes were issued in connection with a private placement offering and were subsequently registered with the Securities & Exchange Commission. The 8-7/8% senior subordinated notes were sold at 99.297% of the stated principal amount, which resulted in net proceeds of $150.9 million. Interest on the 8-7/8% senior subordinated notes is payable semiannually on February 1 and August 1, commencing on February 1, 2004. The 8-7/8% senior subordinated notes are unsecured obligations of Reddy Group and are:

• subordinated in right of payment to all of Reddy Group’s existing and future senior indebtedness;

• equal with any of Reddy Group’s existing and future senior subordinated indebtedness; and

• senior to any other of Reddy Group’s future subordinated indebtedness, if any.

The 8-7/8% senior subordinated notes include customary covenants that restrict, among other things, the ability to incur additional debt, pay dividends or make certain other restricted payments, incur liens, merge or sell all or substantially all of the assets or enter into various transactions with affiliates. Prior to August 1, 2006, we may redeem up to 35% of the principal amount of the 8-7/8% senior subordinated notes at a redemption price of 108.875% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the date of redemption, with funds raised in equity offerings that are specified in the indenture governing the 8-7/8% senior subordinated notes.

The 8-7/8% senior subordinated notes are guaranteed, fully, jointly and severally, and unconditionally, on a senior subordinated basis by Reddy Holdings, and all of Reddy Group’s subsidiaries. The terms of the indenture governing the 8-7/8% senior subordinated notes significantly restrict Reddy Group from paying dividends and otherwise transferring assets to Reddy Holdings. For example, Reddy Group’s ability to make such payments is governed by a formula based on 50% of its consolidated net income. In addition, as a condition to making such payments based on such formula, Reddy Group must have an EBITDA to interest expense ratio of a at least 2.0 to 1.0 prior to August 1, 2006, and 2.25 to 1 thereafter, after giving effect to any such payments. Notwithstanding such restrictions, the indenture permits an aggregate of $10.0 million of such payments to be made whether or not there is availability under the formula or the conditions to its use are met;

provided that at the time of such payment, no default shall have occurred and be continuing under that indenture.

On August 15, 2003, Reddy Group entered into a $170 million senior credit facility, with the lenders being a syndicate of banks, financial institutions and other entities, including Credit Suisse First Boston as Administrative Agent, Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce and Bear Stearns Corporate Lending, Inc. The credit facility provides for a six-year term loan in the amount of $135 million and a five-year revolving credit facility in the amount of $35 million. Proceeds of the term loan were used to consummate the Merger as previously discussed. On October 17, 2003, the senior credit facility was amended to, among other things, allow for an additional term loan of $45 million to consummate the Triangle Ice acquisition, which was completed on November 6, 2003. The new term loan contains substantially all the same terms, conditions and financial covenants as the original term loan.

At March 31, 2004, we had $17.0 million of availability under the line of credit, net of outstanding standby letters of credit of $9.3 million. The standby letters of credit are used primarily to secure certain insurance obligations. As our insurance policies are renewed in 2004, we may be required to increase the balances of the standby letters of credit.

Principal balances outstanding under the line of credit bear interest per annum, at our option, at the sum of the base rate plus the applicable margin or LIBOR plus the applicable margin. The base rate is defined as the greater of the prime rate (as announced from time to time by the Administrative Agent) or the federal funds rate plus 0.5%. The applicable margin is different for revolving and term loans and varies depending on our leverage ratio. On February 20, 2004, the senior credit facility was amended to reduce the applicable margin on term loans by 0.5%. At March 31, 2004, the weighted average interest rate of borrowings outstanding under the senior credit facility was 3.69%. Interest on base rate loans is payable on the last day of each quarter. Interest on LIBOR loans is payable upon maturity of the LIBOR loan or on the last day of the quarter if the LIBOR loan exceeds 90 days.

The terms of the senior credit facility prohibit Reddy Group from paying dividends and otherwise transferring assets to Reddy Holdings, except for certain limited dividends, the proceeds of which must be used to maintain Reddy Holdings’ corporate existence.

The senior credit facility requires that beginning in 2004, we will repay all borrowings under the line of credit and maintain a zero outstanding balance for a period of 30 consecutive calendar days during each year. The term loan amortizes in quarterly installments over a five-year period in an annual aggregate amount equal to 1% of the original balance, with any remaining unpaid balance to be repaid in the sixth year in equal, quarterly installments. Subject to certain conditions, mandatory repayments of the line of credit and term loan are required to be made with portions of the proceeds from (1) asset sales, (2) the issuance of debt securities, (3) an initial public offering of stock of Reddy Holdings and (4) insurance and condemnation awards. Furthermore, within 100 days after close of each fiscal year (beginning with the close of the 2004 fiscal year), a mandatory prepayment of the term loan is required based on a percentage of Reddy Group’s annual excess cash flow, as defined in the senior credit facility. The percentage is based on Reddy Group’s leverage ratio at the end of such fiscal year and ranges from 25% to 75%. The senior credit facility contains financial covenants which include limitations on capital expenditures and the maintenance of certain financial ratios, as defined in the credit agreement, and is collateralized by substantially all of its assets and the capital stock of it and all of its current subsidiaries. At March 31, 2004, we were in compliance with these covenants.

On November 28, 2000, we entered into an interest rate collar agreement. If the Index Rate (30-day LIBOR, as defined in the collar agreement) exceeds 7.75%, we will receive the difference between the Index Rate and 7.75%. If the Index Rate falls below 5.75%, we will pay the difference plus 1%. Any amounts payable or receivable are settled monthly. The collar agreement has a notional amount of $50.0 million and a term of 4 years. When our debt was refinanced on August 15, 2003, $0.3 million of amounts previously deferred in accumulated other comprehensive loss on the balance sheet were written off as the hedged, forecasted transaction was no longer deemed probable of occurring. The collar agreement was redesignated as a hedge of the senior credit facility, with subsequent changes in fair value deferred in other comprehensive

income or loss. If we had been required to settle the collar agreement as of March 31, 2004, we would have had to pay $1.9 million plus accrued interest of $0.2 million. We are exposed to credit risk in the event of nonperformance by the counterparty to the collar agreement, however we anticipate that the counterparty will fully perform its obligations under the collar agreement.

Based on our expected level of operations, we believe that cash flow from operations, together with available borrowings under our line of credit, will be adequate to meet our future liquidity needs for at least the next twelve months. As of May 11, 2004, we had approximately $14 million of availability under our line of credit. We expect availability to increase slightly through June 30, 2004.

Due to the seasonal nature of our business, we record the majority of our sales and profits during the months of May through September. The majority of the cash generated from those operations is received between July and November. During those months we expect to repay all amounts currently outstanding under the line of credit, fund current capital expenditures, service our debt (including principal and interest payments) and build up cash on hand. We anticipate that a significant portion of such cash flow will be used in early 2005 to repay amounts outstanding under the senior credit facility as required by mandatory prepayment provisions in the senior credit facility.

Critical Accounting Policies

Allowances for Doubtful Accounts. We maintain allowances for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from the inability of our customers to make the required payments on their accounts. We have attempted to reserve for these estimated losses based on our past experience with similar accounts receivable and believe our reserves to be adequate. If the financial condition of our customers were to deteriorate, resulting in an impairment of their ability to make payments on their accounts, additional allowances may be required.

Long-Lived Assets. Property and equipment is carried at cost and is being depreciated on a straight-line basis over estimated lives of 2.5 to 40 years. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred, while capital improvements that extend the useful lives of the underlying assets are capitalized. We accounted for all of our historical acquisitions using the purchase method of accounting and as a result recorded significant amounts of goodwill. Other intangible assets include the following that are amortized over their useful lives:

Intangible Assets		Useful Life
Goodwill		Indefinite life
Trade name		Indefinite life
Customer relationships		Straight line method over economic lives of 15 to 30 years
Debt issue costs		Interest method over the term of the debt

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets. In accordance with SFAS No. 144, “Accounting for Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets,” long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangible assets to be held and used are reviewed for impairment on an annual basis or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such assets may not be recoverable. The determination of recoverability of long-lived assets and certain other identifiable intangible assets is based on an estimate of undiscounted future cash flows resulting from the use of the asset or its disposition. Measurement of an impairment loss for long-lived assets and other intangible assets that management expects to hold and use are based on the fair value of the asset. Long-lived assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of carrying amount or net realizable value. In accordance with SFAS No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets,” goodwill is evaluated using a market valuation approach based on valuations of comparable businesses.

Inherent in the determination of such future cash flows and valuations are certain estimates and judgements, including the interpretation of current economic indicators and market values and assumptions about our strategic plans with regards to our operations. To the extent additional information arises or our

strategies change, it is possible that our conclusions regarding the impairment of goodwill or other long-lived assets could change and result in a material effect on our financial position or results of operations.

Revenue Recognition. Revenue is recognized when product (packaged ice, ice packaging bags, bottled water and ice equipment) is delivered to and accepted by customers. There is no right of return with respect to the packaged ice, bags delivered and bottled water. Revenue resulting from Ice Factory management agreements and cold storage services is recognized as earned under contract terms.

General Economic Trends and Seasonality

Our results of operations are generally affected by the economic trends in our market area, but results to date have not been significantly impacted by inflation. If we experience an extended period of high inflation, which affects multiple expense items, we believe that we will be able to pass on these higher costs to our customers. The ice business is highly seasonal. We experience seasonal fluctuations in our net sales and profitability. We make a disproportionate amount of our sales in the second and third calendar quarters. We also typically have net income in these same periods. We believe that over two-thirds of our revenues will occur during the second and third calendar quarters when the weather conditions are generally warmer and demand is greater, while less than one-third of our revenues will occur during the first and fourth calendar quarters when the weather is generally cooler. As a result of seasonal revenue declines and the lack of proportional corresponding expense decreases, we will most likely experience lower profit margins and even losses during the first and fourth calendar quarters. In addition, because our operating results depend significantly on sales during our peak season, our quarterly results of operations may fluctuate significantly as a result of adverse weather during this peak selling period if the weather is unusually cool or rainy on a more national or regional basis.

Risks Relating to Our Indebtedness

Our substantial leverage and debt service obligations could harm our ability to operate our business and make payments on our indebtedness.

We are highly leveraged and have significant debt service obligations. As of March 31, 2004, we had total debt of approximately $339.2 million and total shareholders’ equity of $180.3 million. Our substantial level of indebtedness increases the possibility that we may be unable to generate cash sufficient to repay principal amounts or interest when due or repay other amounts due in respect of our indebtedness.

Our substantial debt could have other important consequences to you, including the following:

• we will be required to use a substantial portion, if not all, of our free cash flow from operations to pay principal and interest on our debt, and our level of debt may restrict us from raising additional financing on satisfactory terms to fund working capital, strategic acquisitions, investments, joint ventures and other general corporate requirements;

• our interest expense could increase if interest rates in general increase, because a substantial portion of our debt will bear interest at floating rates and we cannot assure you that we will be able to effectively hedge against fluctuations in interest rates or that such hedging activities will not result in payments by us;

• our substantial leverage will increase our vulnerability to general economic downturns and adverse competitive and industry conditions and could place us at a competitive disadvantage compared to those of our competitors that are less leveraged;

• our debt service obligations could limit our flexibility in planning for, or reacting to, changes in our business; and

• our failure to comply with the financial and other restrictive covenants in the indenture governing the senior subordinated notes, as well as the credit agreement governing our senior credit facility, which require us to maintain specified financial ratios and limit our ability to incur debt and sell assets, could result in an event of default that, if not cured or waived, could harm our business or prospects and could result in our bankruptcy.

We could incur more indebtedness, which may increase the risks associated with our substantial leverage, including our ability to service our indebtedness.

The indenture governing the senior subordinated notes and our senior credit facility permit us, under certain circumstances, to incur a significant amount of additional indebtedness. In addition, we may incur additional indebtedness through our revolving credit facility. If we incur additional debt, the risks associated with our substantial leverage, including our ability to service our debt, would increase.

Our ability to service our indebtedness requires a significant amount of cash, and our ability to generate cash depends on many factors beyond our control.

We cannot be certain that our earnings and the earnings of our operating subsidiaries will be sufficient to allow us to make payments in respect of the securities and meet our other obligations. Our ability to generate cash from our operations is subject to weather, general economic, financial, competitive, legislative, regulatory and other factors that are beyond our control. As a result, we cannot assure you that our business will generate sufficient cash flow from operations in amounts sufficient to enable us to make payments in respect of the securities or service our debt and to fund our other liquidity needs. If we do not have sufficient liquidity, we will have to take actions such as reducing or delaying strategic acquisitions, investments and joint ventures, selling assets, restructuring or refinancing our debt or seeking additional equity capital. We cannot assure you that any of these remedies could, if necessary, be effected on commercially reasonable terms, or at all. In addition, the terms of existing or future debt instruments, including the credit agreement governing our senior credit facility and the indenture for the subordinated notes, may restrict us from adopting some of these alternatives. Therefore, because of these and other factors beyond our control, we may be unable to pay dividends or service our debt.

If we fail to meet our payment or other obligations under our senior credit facility, the lenders under the senior credit facility could foreclose on, and acquire control of, substantially all of our assets.

The lenders under the our senior credit facility received a pledge of all of our equity interests of Reddy Group and its current subsidiaries. Additionally, these lenders have a lien on substantially all of our assets. As a result of these pledges and liens, if we fail to meet our payment or other obligations under our senior credit facility, those lenders are entitled to foreclose on substantially all of our assets and liquidate those assets.

Risks Relating to Our Business

Our failure to successfully compete could adversely affect our prospects and financial results.

Our businesses are highly competitive. We have many competitors in each of our geographic markets offering similar products and services. Competition in our businesses is based primarily on service, quality and price. If we fail to successfully compete against our competitors in any of these areas, our business will be adversely affected. There are low barriers to entry in the ice industry and we could be adversely affected by any expansion of capacity by our existing competitors or by new entrants in our markets. Retaining existing customers and obtaining new customers is important to our future performance. If we fail to adequately serve our existing base of customers, our financial performance will be negatively impacted. We could also be adversely affected if our larger grocery or convenience store customers decide to manufacture their own ice rather than purchase our products.

The seasonal nature of the ice business results in losses and lower profit margins in the first and fourth quarters of the year.

We experience significant seasonal fluctuations in our net sales and profitability. We make a disproportionate amount of our sales in the second and third calendar quarters when the weather is generally warmer, which results in an increased demand for ice. We also earn our net income during these same periods. As a result of seasonal revenue declines and the lack of a corresponding decrease in expenses, we experience net losses and materially lower profit margins during the first and fourth calendar quarters. Variations in demand could have a material adverse effect on the timing of our cash flows and therefore our ability to service our obligations with respect to our indebtedness, including the securities. In addition, because our operating results depend significantly on sales during the second and third calendar quarters, our results of operations may fluctuate significantly if the weather during these periods is cool or rainy.

The results of our operations may be adversely affected by weather.

Cool or rainy weather can decrease sales, while extremely hot weather may increase our expenses, each resulting in a negative impact on our operating results and cash flow. Ice consumers demand ice for a variety of reasons, but many of them buy ice in connection with outdoor related activities, both commercial and recreational. As a result, demand for ice increases during periods of warm, sunny weather, and conversely, demand decreases during periods of cool, rainy weather. During extended periods of cool or rainy weather on a national basis, our revenues and resulting net income may substantially decline. Hot weather does not necessarily result in greater net income. During extended periods of hot weather, our profits and cash flow may decline because of an increase in expenses in response to excess demand. We may have to transport ice from one plant to another and, in some cases, purchase ice from third party sources and transport it to a specific market to meet this excess demand, resulting in higher expenses and inconsistent service and product quality.

Increases in the prices of electricity, certain raw materials, insurance and other required expenses could have an adverse effect on our results of operations.

We use substantial amounts of electricity in connection with our manufacturing process. Increases in market rates for electricity could have an adverse impact on our operations. Our business is also sensitive to increases in the cost of fuel required to operate the refrigerated trucks we use to deliver ice and to increases in the cost of polyethylene, which is the primary raw material used to manufacture the bags we use to package our ice. Our business is sensitive to increases in insurance costs, including in the areas of general liability, workers compensation, health and vehicle insurance. We have already experienced increases in fuel costs, bag costs and insurance costs and may experience further increases in the future. If the prices for these items or other expenses should increase significantly, we will incur additional costs that we may not be able to pass along to our customers. There can be no assurance that significant changes in the prices of electricity, polyethylene, fuel, insurance or other commodities would not have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and cash flows.

We could incur substantial costs as a result of violations of or liabilities under environmental laws.

Our ice manufacturing and cold storage operations are subject to a wide range of environmental laws and regulations governing, among other things, air emissions, wastewater discharges, the use, management and disposal of hazardous and non-hazardous materials and wastes and the cleanup of contamination. Non compliance with such laws and regulations, or incidents resulting in environmental releases, could cause us to incur substantial costs, including cleanup costs, fines and penalties, third party claims for personal injury, investments to retrofit or upgrade our facilities and programs or curtailment of our operations. For example, our ice manufacturing and cold storage operations use refrigerants such as ammonia and freon. Several of our ammonia facilities have not yet implemented certain required elements of risk and safety management programs mandated under applicable laws. Other facilities may not be in compliance with certain freon refrigerant requirements, such as leak detection and repair, recordkeeping or reporting. In addition, the market price of freon is rising as a result of phase outs under federal laws, which could significantly increase our operating costs in the future if we are not able to obtain approved substitutes. From time to time, our use of ammonia has resulted in releases that have temporarily disrupted our manufacturing operations and resulted in lawsuits or administrative penalties. We are currently involved in litigation resulting from an ammonia release in June 2001 at our Baton Rouge, Louisiana facility. See Part II, Item 1 – “Legal Proceedings”. We cannot assure you that we will not incur material environmental costs or liabilities in the future or that such costs or liabilities will not have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations.

Government laws and regulations could have an adverse effect on our results of operations.

Like any food company, we are subject to various federal, state and local laws relating to many aspects of our business, including labeling, sanitation, health and safety and manufacturing processes. We cannot predict the types of government regulations that may be enacted in the future by the various levels of government or how existing or future laws or regulations will be interpreted or enforced. The enactment of more stringent laws or regulations or a stricter interpretation of existing laws and regulations may require additional expenditures by us, some of which could be material.

If we are unable to retain senior executives and attract and retain other qualified employees, our business might be adversely affected.

Our success depends in part on our ability to attract, hire, train and retain qualified managerial, sales and marketing personnel. Competition for these types of personnel is high. We may be unsuccessful in attracting and retaining the personnel we require to conduct our operations successfully and, in such an event, our business could be materially and adversely affected. Our success also depends to a significant extent on the continued service and performance of our senior management team and in particular on the continued service of William P. Brick, our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, and Jimmy C. Weaver, our President and Chief Operating Officer. The loss of any member of our senior management team could impair our ability to execute our business plan and could therefore have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Our acquisitions may not be successfully integrated and could cause unexpected financial difficulties.

We anticipate that we may, from time to time, selectively acquire additional businesses, assets or securities of companies that we believe would provide a strategic fit with our business. Acquired businesses will need to be integrated with our existing operations. There can be no assurance that we will effectively assimilate these companies into our business. Any acquisitions will also be accompanied by risks, such as potential exposure to unknown liabilities of acquired companies and the possible loss of key employees and customers of the acquired business. Acquisitions are also subject to risks associated with the difficulty and expense of integrating the operations and personnel of the acquired companies, the potential disruption to our business and the diversion of management time and attention. In addition, as a result of future acquisitions, we may increase our debt level. Our failure to adequately manage the risks associated with any acquisitions could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations.

We acquired Service Ice in October 2003 and Triangle Ice in November 2003. These acquisitions have been integrated into our operations. Although the integration efforts are complete, these operations have only been a part of our company for a short period of time and may still result in potential disruption to our business and the diversion of management’s time and attention. From January 1, 2004 through May 11, 2004, we have completed 6 additional acquisitions. Although the size of the recently acquired operations is not significant, they may still be source of disruption for our business and diversion for our management. Material disruptions or diversions due to these acquisitions, particularly in the case of Triangle Ice, could have a material adverse effect on our business.

Accidents involving our products and equipment could expose us to product liability claims.

We are subject to a risk of product liability claims and adverse publicity if a consumer is or claims to be harmed while using our products or equipment. Any such claim may result in negative publicity, loss of revenues or higher costs associated with litigation. We currently carry product liability insurance that we believe is adequate to cover our losses in these situations. However, this insurance may be insufficient to pay for all or a large part of these losses. If our insurance does not adequately cover these losses, our results of operations and cash flow would decrease and such a decrease could be material.

We may lose customers’ business to competitors as a result of our limited intellectual property protection, including on The Ice Factory.

As the sole major ice supplier using an on-site production and delivery system at our customers’ retail locations, we have enjoyed a competitive advantage over our competitors. Our proprietary Ice Factory system is preferred by certain of our high volume customers to traditional ice delivery and gives us more flexibility during peak seasons. In 2001, a competitor began testing a machine similar to the Ice Factory in certain of its markets. Although the competitor has not deployed its machine to a significant degree, if this competitor or any new competitors are successful with the rollout of a competing system, we could lose business to these companies, which would result in decreased cash flows and results of operations. It is also our practice to protect certain of our proprietary materials and processes by relying on trade secrets laws and non-disclosure and confidentiality agreements. There can be no assurance that confidentiality or trade secrets will be maintained or that others will not independently develop or obtain access to such materials or processes.

We are party to two lawsuits related to the Merger, which if determined adversely to us, could result in the imposition of damages against us and could harm our business and financial condition.

We have been served with two complaints asserting putative class action lawsuits in Texas in connection with the Merger. In addition, we may be subject to other lawsuits in connection with the Merger that have not yet been filed. In the event that the current lawsuits with respect to the Merger are not dismissed or decided in our favor or we become subject to additional suits, these lawsuits could result in the imposition of damages against us or even the rescission of the Merger and related transactions. In the event that damages are awarded, our business and financial condition could be harmed. See Part II, Item 1 – “Legal Proceedings”.

We are controlled by our sponsors and their affiliates, whose interests in our business may be different from yours.

By reason of our sponsors’ and their affiliates’ ownership of us and their collective ability, pursuant to a stockholders agreement among our stockholders, to designate a majority of the members of the board of directors, our sponsors will control actions to be taken by us and our board of directors, including amendments to our certificate of incorporation and by-laws and approval of significant corporate transactions, including mergers and sales of substantially all of our assets. The interests of our sponsors and their affiliates will likely differ from yours in material respects.

ITEM 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risks

Market risk generally represents the risk that losses may occur in the value of financial instruments as a result of movements in interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates and commodity prices.

On November 28, 2000, we entered into an interest rate collar agreement (the “Collar Agreement”). The Collar Agreement has a notional amount of $50 million and a term of 4 years. If the Index Rate (30-day LIBOR, as defined in the Collar Agreement) exceeds 7.75%, we will receive the difference between the Index Rate and 7.75%. If the Index Rate falls below 5.75%, we will pay the difference plus 1%. If we had been required to settle the Collar Agreement as of March 31, 2004, we would have had to pay $1.9 million plus accrued interest of $0.2 million.

We are exposed to some market risk due to the floating interest rates under our senior credit facility. Principal balances outstanding under the line of credit bear interest, at our option, at the London Inter-Bank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) plus 3.5% or the prime rate (as announced from time to time by the administrative agent) plus 1.5%. The term loans bear interest, at our option, at LIBOR plus 2.5% or the prime rate plus 1.5%.

As of March 31, 2004, the senior credit facility had an outstanding principal balance of $187.8 million at a weighted average interest rate of 3.69% per annum. Due to our interest rate collar agreement, the effect of a change in interest rates on our interest expense depends on the level of LIBOR rates. At March 31, 2004, the 30-day LIBOR rate was 1.1%.

The following table shows the approximate annual increase in interest expense given the current principal balances on all of our debt if LIBOR were to increase by 1% from the initial levels indicated below:

Initial LIBOR Rate	Increase in the LIBOR rate	Estimated Annual Impact
		(in thousands)

Less than or equal to 4.5%	1%	$	1,291

Greater than 4.5%, less than or equal to 5.75%	1%	$	1,541

Greater than 5.75%, less than or equal to 6.75%	1%	$	1,791

Greater than 6.75%, less than or equal to 7.75%	1%	$	1,541

Greater than 7.75%	1%	$	1,291

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our chief executive officer and our chief financial officer, we have evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. These controls and procedures are designed to ensure that material information relating to the company and its subsidiaries is communicated to the chief executive officer and the chief financial officer. Based on that evaluation, our chief executive officer and our chief financial officer concluded that, as of March 31, 2004, our disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that information disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit with the Securities Exchange Commission is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms.

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the first quarter ended March 31, 2004, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

We are from time to time party to legal proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of business. We do not believe that the resolution of any threatened or pending legal proceedings will have a material adverse affect on our financial position, results of operations or liquidity.

We are a party to a lawsuit in connection with an ammonia release at our Baton Rouge, Louisiana manufacturing facility in June 2001. The case, which is a consolidation of seven lawsuits, is titled Wallace Acey, Jr. et al vs. Reddy Ice Corporation and was reported on our Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2003. Since that report, there have been no material developments.

We are a party to two lawsuits filed in connection the Merger. The first lawsuit was filed on May 23, 2003 and is titled Cause No. CC-03-06056-A; Glenn Robbins, On Behalf of Himself and All Others Similarly Situated, and Derivatively on Behalf of Packaged Ice, Inc. vs. William P. Brick, Jimmy C. Weaver, A.J. Lewis III, Tracy L. Noll, Robert G. Miller, Steven P. Rosenberg and Richard A. Coonrod, Defendants, and Packaged Ice, Inc., a Texas corporation. The second lawsuit was filed on May 23, 2003 and is titled Cause No. CC-03-06055-C, Imperial County, On Behalf of Itself and All Others Similarly Situated, and Derivatively on Behalf of Packaged Ice, Inc. vs. William P. Brick, Jimmy C. Weaver, A.J. Lewis III, Tracy L. Noll, Robert G. Miller, Steven P. Rosenberg and Richard A. Coonrod, Defendants, and Packaged Ice, Inc., a Texas corporation. The two lawsuits are identical adversarial proceedings filed by two shareholders on their own behalf, on behalf of a purported class, and derivatively on behalf of Packaged Ice, Inc., now known as Reddy Ice Group, Inc. The plaintiffs allege various breaches of fiduciary duty by our Board of Directors and unjust enrichment related to the Merger. The claims allege that we failed to maximize shareholder value in the Merger transaction. These cases were reported on our Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2003. Since that report, there have been no material developments.

Item 2. Changes in Securities, Use of Proceeds and Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities

On February 3, 2004, we issued options to purchase 60 shares of our common stock to each our two independent directors in consideration for their service on our board of directors, pursuant to our 2003 Stock Option Plan. The issuance of the options is exempt from registration pursuant to Regulation 201 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

Item 3. Defaults Upon Senior Securities
