Note 1.          Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation.  The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Silgan Holdings Inc. have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X.  Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for complete financial statements.  In the opinion of management, the accompanying financial statements include all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation.  The results of operations for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations for the full year.

The condensed consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2002 has been derived from our audited financial statements at that date, but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for complete financial statements.

You should read the accompanying financial statements in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2002.

Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform with the current year’s presentation.

Stock-Based Compensation.  We have two stock-based compensation plans.  We apply the recognition and measurement principles of Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees,” and related interpretations in accounting for these plans.  Accordingly, no compensation expense for employee stock options is recognized, as all options granted under these plans had an exercise price that was equal to or greater than the market value of the underlying stock on the date of the grant.

Note 1.          Significant Accounting Policies  (continued)

Stock-Based Compensation.  (continued)  If we had applied the fair value recognition provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards, or SFAS, No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation,” for the three months ended March 31, net income and basic and diluted earnings per share would have been as follows:

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements.  Effective January 1, 2003, we adopted SFAS No. 145, “Rescission of FASB Statements No. 4, 44 and 64, Amendment of FASB Statement No. 13, and Technical Corrections.”  Among other provisions, SFAS No. 145 rescinds SFAS No. 4, “Reporting Gains and Losses from Extinguishment of Debt,” and SFAS No. 64, “Extinguishment of Debt Made to Satisfy Sinking-Fund Requirements,” such that most gains or losses from the extinguishment of debt will no longer be classified as extraordinary items.  Upon adoption in 2003, we reclassified previously reported extraordinary items from loss on early extinguishment of debt to interest and other debt expense.  The adoption of SFAS No. 145 did not impact our results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2003 or 2002.

Effective January 1, 2003, we adopted SFAS No. 146, “Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities,” which is applicable to exit and disposal activities that are initiated after December 31, 2002.  SFAS No. 146 addresses accounting and reporting for costs associated with exit or disposal activities and nullifies Emerging Issues Task Force, or EITF, Issue No. 94-3, “Liability Recognition for Certain Employee Termination Benefits and Other Costs to Exit an Activity (including Certain Costs Incurred in a Restructuring).”  SFAS No. 146 requires the recognition of a liability for a cost associated with an exit or disposal activity when the liability is incurred.  Under EITF Issue No. 94-3, a liability for an exit cost was recognized at the date an entity committed to an exit plan.

Note 2.          Acquisitions

In January 2003, we acquired substantially all of the assets of Thatcher Tubes LLC and its affiliates, or Thatcher Tubes, a privately held manufacturer and marketer of decorated plastic tubes serving primarily the personal care industry.  The purchase price, including recently installed additional production capacity, was approximately $32 million in cash.  Thatcher Tubes had annual net sales of approximately $29 million in 2002.  Thatcher Tubes will operate as part of our plastic container business.

In March 2003, we acquired the remaining 65 percent equity interest in the Amcor White Cap LLC, or White Cap, joint venture that we did not already own from Amcor White Cap Inc. for approximately $37 million in cash and refinanced debt and settled certain third party lease obligations of the business for approximately $94 million.  White Cap had annual net sales of approximately $250 million in 2002.  The business will operate as part of our metal food container business.

We financed these acquisitions primarily through a $150 million incremental term loan borrowing under our senior secured credit facility, or the Credit Agreement.  These acquisitions were accounted for using the purchase method of accounting.  Accordingly, the purchase price has been allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their fair values at the date of acquisition, and the businesses’ results of operations have been included in our consolidated operating results from the date of acquisition.  The allocation of purchase price is based on preliminary estimates and assumptions and is subject to revision when valuations and integration plans have been finalized.  Accordingly, revisions to the allocation of purchase price, which may be significant, will be reported in a future period as increases or decreases to amounts previously reported.

In April 2003, we acquired PCP Can Manufacturing, Inc., or PCP Can, a subsidiary of Pacific Coast Producers, or PCP, through which PCP self-manufactured a majority of its metal food containers. The purchase price was approximately $45 million in cash, including approximately $30 million for inventory.  As part of the transaction, we entered into a ten-year supply agreement with PCP under which PCP has agreed to purchase from us substantially all of its metal food container requirements.  Annual sales to PCP under the supply agreement are expected to be approximately $55 million.

Note 3.          Rationalization (Credits) Charges and Acquisition Reserves 

As part of our plans to integrate the operations of our various acquired businesses, including the Food Metal and Specialty business of American National Can Company, or AN Can, and to rationalize certain facilities, we have established reserves for employee severance and benefits, plant exit costs and acquisition liabilities.  Activity in our rationalization and acquisition reserves since December 31, 2002 is summarized as follows:

During the first quarter of 2002, we placed certain assets of our metal food container business with carrying values that were previously written down back in service.  As a result, we recorded a $2.3 million rationalization credit and recorded those assets in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets at their depreciated cost, which approximated fair value.

Rationalization and acquisition reserves are included in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as follows:

Effective July 1, 2001, we formed a joint venture company with Schmalbach-Lubeca AG that is a leading supplier of an extensive range of metal and plastic closures to consumer goods packaging companies in the food and beverage industries in North America.  The venture operated under the name Amcor White Cap LLC.  We contributed certain metal closure assets and liabilities, including our manufacturing facilities in Evansville and Richmond, Indiana, in return for a 35 percent interest in and $32.4 million of cash proceeds from the joint venture.  Schmalbach-Lubeca AG contributed the remaining metal and plastic closure operations to the joint venture.  In July 2002, Amcor Ltd. purchased Schmalbach-Lubeca AG’s interest in the joint venture.

Note 6.          Investment in Affiliate  (continued)

As discussed in Note 2, in March 2003, we acquired the remaining 65 percent interest in the White Cap joint venture that we did not already own.  The business now operates under the name Silgan Closures LLC, or Silgan Closures.

Prior to our acquisition of White Cap, we accounted for our investment in the White Cap joint venture using the equity method.  For the first two months of 2003, we recorded equity in losses of White Cap of $0.3 million, net of income taxes.  During the first quarter of 2002, we recorded equity in losses of White Cap of $0.6 million, net of income taxes.  The results of Silgan Closures for the month of March 2003 were included with the results of our metal food container business.
