NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Information at June 30, 2008 and 2007 and for the
three and six months then ended is unaudited)
Note 1. Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated
financial statements of Silgan Holdings Inc., or Holdings, have been prepared in
accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles 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 U.S. generally accepted accounting principles 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, 2007 has been derived
from our audited consolidated financial statements at that date, but does not
include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. generally accepted
accounting principles for complete financial statements.
Certain prior years' amounts have been reclassified to conform with the current
year's presentation.
You should read the accompanying condensed consolidated 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, 2007.
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements. In September 2006, the Financial
Accounting Standards Board, or FASB, issued Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards, or SFAS, No. 157, "Fair Value Measurements." SFAS No. 157 establishes
a single authoritative definition for fair value, sets out a framework for
measuring fair value, and requires additional disclosures about fair value
measurements. In February 2008, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position, or FSP, No.
157-2, "Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 157." FSP No. 157-2 delays the
effective date of our adoption of SFAS No. 157, as it relates to applying fair
value measurements to nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities that are
not recognized or disclosed on a recurring basis (at least annually), to January
1, 2009. We adopted SFAS No. 157, as it relates to financial assets and
financial liabilities, on January 1, 2008. The adoption of SFAS No. 157 did not
have a significant effect on our financial position, results of operations or
cash flows. We are currently evaluating the impact that SFAS No. 157, as it
relates to nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities, will have on our
consolidated financial statements. See Note 7 for further information.
In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, "The Fair Value Option for
Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities-Including an amendment of FASB
Statement No. 115." SFAS No. 159 permits entities to elect to measure eligible
financial instruments and certain other items at fair value that are not
currently required to be measured at fair value. We adopted SFAS No. 159 on
January 1, 2008. We have elected not to measure eligible items at fair value,
and therefore our adoption of SFAS No. 159 did not have an effect on our
financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Note 1. Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
Recent Accounting Pronouncements. In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No.
141(R), "Business Combinations." SFAS No. 141(R) retains the fundamental
requirements in SFAS No. 141 that the purchase method of accounting be used for
all business combinations and for an acquirer to be identified for each business
combination. SFAS No. 141(R) establishes principles and requirements for the
reporting entity in a business combination, including recognition and
measurement in the financial statements of the identifiable assets acquired, the
liabilities assumed and any non-controlling interest at their fair values at the
acquisition date. SFAS No. 141(R) also requires that acquisition-related costs
be recognized separately from the acquisition. SFAS No. 141(R) applies
prospectively to business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or
after January 1, 2009. In addition, SFAS No. 141(R) requires that any changes in
an acquired deferred tax account or related valuation allowance that occur after
the effective date of adoption will be recognized as adjustments to income tax
expense. We are currently evaluating the impact that SFAS No. 141(R) will have
on our consolidated financial statements.
In March 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 161, "Disclosures about Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities." SFAS No. 161 requires companies with
derivative instruments to disclose information that should enable
financial-statement users to understand how and why a company uses derivative
instruments, how derivative instruments and related hedged items are accounted
for under SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging
Activities" and how derivative instruments and related hedged items affect a
company's financial position, financial performance and cash flows. SFAS No. 161
is effective for us on January 1, 2009. We are currently evaluating the impact,
if any, that SFAS No. 161 will have on our consolidated financial statements.
Note 2. Acquisitions
In February 2008, we acquired substantially all of the assets of the metal
vacuum closures operations of Grup Vemsa 1857, S.L., or Vem, which had
manufacturing operations in Spain and China, for an aggregate purchase price of
$10.2 million. The acquisition of Vem was accounted for using the purchase
method of accounting.
In April 2008, we acquired the White Cap closures operation in Brazil for an
aggregate purchase price of $4.3 million, net of cash acquired, thereby
concluding our acquisition of the White Cap closures operations from Amcor
Limited. This acquisition was accounted for using the purchase method of
accounting.

2008 Rationalization Plans
--------------------------
In the first quarter of 2008, as part of our ongoing effort to streamline
operations and reduce costs, we approved plans to close our metal food container
manufacturing facility in Tarrant, Alabama and our plastic container
manufacturing facility in Richmond, Virginia and to streamline certain
operations and consolidate various administrative positions within our European
closures operations.

Note 3. Rationalization Charges (continued)
2008 Rationalization Plans (continued)
--------------------------
Our plan to cease operations at our Tarrant facility in the third quarter of
2008 includes the termination of approximately 35 employees and other related
plant exit costs. We estimate that the total costs for the rationalization of
this facility will be $2.8 million. These costs include $0.6 million for
employee severance and benefits, $1.5 million for plant exit costs and $1.1
million for the acceleration of depreciation to write-down equipment for
abandonment upon the exit of the facility, offset by $0.4 million for a non-cash
curtailment gain for other postretirement benefits. Rationalization charges
recognized during the first six months of 2008 for this action were $1.6
million, of which $1.1 million was incurred for the accelerated depreciation of
equipment and $0.5 million was incurred for employee severance and benefits.
Additional charges of $1.2 million are expected through 2009. Remaining cash
payments of $1.8 million are expected through 2009.
Our plan to cease operations at our Richmond facility in the third quarter of
2008 includes the termination of approximately 15 employees and other related
plant exit costs. We estimate that the total costs for the rationalization of
this facility will be $1.6 million. These costs include $0.2 million for
employee severance and benefits, $0.6 million for plant exit costs and $0.8
million for the non-cash write-down in carrying value of assets. Rationalization
charges recognized during the first six months of 2008 for this action were $0.8
million for the non-cash write-down in carrying value of assets. Additional
charges and related payments of $0.8 million are expected primarily in 2008.
Our plans to consolidate various administrative positions and streamline
operations at certain of our closure manufacturing facilities in Europe include
the termination of approximately 90 employees and the relocation of certain
operations into existing facilities. These decisions resulted in a total charge
to earnings in the first six months of 2008 of $3.3 million, which consisted of
$3.1 million for employee severance and benefits and $0.2 million for plant exit
costs. Additional charges of $0.5 million for employee severance and benefits
are expected during the remainder of 2008. Remaining cash payments of $2.5
million are expected primarily in 2008.

Note 3. Rationalization Charges (continued)
2006 Rationalization Plans
--------------------------
In June 2006, in an effort to streamline operations and reduce costs, we
approved a plan to exit our St. Paul, Minnesota metal food container
manufacturing facility. The plan includes the termination of approximately 60
employees, the consolidation of certain operations into existing facilities and
the elimination of the remaining operations and the exit of the facility. We
estimate that the total costs for the rationalization of the facility will be
$14.2 million. As of December 31, 2007, total charges of $12.5 million
recognized to date included $5.8 million of non-cash pension and postretirement
curtailment expense, $2.6 million for employee severance and special termination
benefits, $1.1 million for plant exit costs and $3.0 million for the non-cash
write-down and accelerated depreciation of the building and equipment.
Rationalization charges recognized during the first six months of 2008 were $1.6
million, of which $1.3 million was for plant exit costs and $0.3 million was for
the non-cash write down in carrying value of assets. We have ceased operations
at this facility. Additional charges of $0.1 million for plant exit costs are
expected through 2008. Remaining cash payments of $1.0 million are expected
primarily in 2008.
In October 2006, we approved and announced to employees a plan to exit our
Stockton, California metal food container manufacturing facility. The plan
includes the termination or relocation of approximately 110 employees and other
related plant exit costs. We estimate total rationalization charges for the plan
will be $5.5 million. As of December 31, 2007, we recognized rationalization
charges of $4.1 million for employee severance and benefits, $0.4 million for
the non-cash write down in carrying value of assets and $0.6 million for plant
exit costs. Rationalization charges recognized during the first six months of
2008 were $0.1 million for plant exit costs. We have ceased operations at this
facility. Additional charges of $0.3 million for plant exit costs are expected
through 2008. Remaining cash payments of $3.7 million are expected through 2009.
Rationalization reserves are included in the Condensed Consolidated Balance

Note 7. Fair Value Measurements
We adopted SFAS No. 157 as it relates to financial assets and financial
liabilities as of January 1, 2008. SFAS No. 157 defines fair value as the price
that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an
orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (exit
price). SFAS No. 157 classifies the inputs used to measure fair value into a
hierarchy consisting of three levels. Level 1 inputs represent unadjusted quoted
prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2 inputs
represent unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or
liabilities, or unadjusted quoted prices for identical or similar assets or
liabilities in markets that are not active, or inputs other than quoted prices
that are observable for the asset or liability. Level 3 inputs represent
unobservable inputs for the asset or liability. Financial assets and liabilities
are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is
significant to the fair value measurement.
The financial assets and liabilities that are measured on a recurring basis at
June 30, 2008 consist of our interest rate swap agreements. We measured the fair
value of the interest rate swap agreements using the income approach. The fair
value of these agreements reflects the estimated amounts that we would receive
based on the present value of the expected cash flows derived from market
interest rates. As such, these derivative instruments are classified within
Level 2.
At June 30, 2008, our interest rate swap agreements were valued as a net asset
of $7.9 million. There were no significant unrealized gains or losses related to
our interest rate swap agreements recognized during the first six months of
2008.

We recognized curtailment expense in 2007 for our pension benefits related to
the planned exit of our St. Paul, Minnesota metal food container manufacturing
facility.
As previously disclosed in our consolidated financial statements and notes
thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December
31, 2007, based on current tax law, there are no material minimum required
contributions to our pension plans in 2008. However, this is subject to change
based on a number of factors, including in the event that asset performance is
significantly below the assumed long-term rate of return on plan assets. During
the first six months of 2008, we made no material contributions to fund our
pension plans.

Note 9. Income Taxes
Holdings and its subsidiaries file U.S. Federal income tax returns, as well as
income tax returns in various states and foreign jurisdictions. The Internal
Revenue Service, or IRS, has commenced an examination of Holdings' income tax
return for the periods ended December 31, 2004 and December 31, 2005. It is
reasonably possible that this IRS audit and IRS audits for prior periods will be
concluded within the next twelve months, and that the conclusion of these audits
may result in a significant change to our reported unrecognized tax benefits.
Due to the ongoing nature of these audits, we are unable to estimate the amount
of this potential impact.
Note 10. Dividends
In March and June of 2008, we paid quarterly cash dividends on our common stock
of $0.17 per share, as approved by our Board of Directors. The cash payments
related to these dividends totaled $13.0 million.
On August 6, 2008, our Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend on
our common stock of $0.17 per share, payable on September 15, 2008 to holders of
record of our common stock on August 29, 2008. The cash payment related to this
dividend is expected to be approximately $6.5 million.
Note 11. Treasury Stock
During the first six months of 2008, we issued 28,877 treasury shares which had
an average cost of $13.25 per share for restricted stock units that vested
during the period. In accordance with the Silgan Holdings Inc. 2004 Stock
Incentive Plan, we repurchased 8,399 shares of our common stock at an average
cost of $47.27 to satisfy employee withholding tax requirements resulting from
certain restricted stock units becoming vested. We account for the treasury
shares using the first-in, first-out (FIFO) cost method. As of June 30, 2008,
5,281,357 shares were held in treasury.
Note 12. Stock-Based Compensation
We currently have one stock-based compensation plan in effect, under which we
have issued options and restricted stock units to our officers, other key
employees and outside directors. During the first six months of 2008, we granted
82,900 restricted stock units to certain of our officers and key employees. The
fair value of these restricted stock units at the date of grant was $3.9
million, which is being amortized ratably over the five-year vesting period from
the date of grant. In June 2008, we granted 5,262 restricted stock units to
non-employee members of our Board of Directors, which vest in full one year from
the date of grant. The fair value of these restricted stock units at the date of
grant was $0.3 million.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
---------------------------------------------
Statements included in "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations" and elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on
Form 10-Q which are not historical facts are "forward-looking statements" made
pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation
Reform Act of 1995 and Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Such forward-looking
statements are made based upon management's expectations and beliefs concerning
future events impacting us and therefore involve a number of uncertainties and
risks, including, but not limited to, those described in our Annual Report on
Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2007 and our other filings with
the Securities and Exchange Commission. As a result, the actual results of our
operations or our financial condition could differ materially from those
expressed or implied in these forward-looking statements.
General
We are a leading manufacturer of metal and plastic consumer goods packaging
products. We produce steel and aluminum containers for human and pet food;
custom designed plastic containers, tubes and closures for personal care, health
care, pharmaceutical, household and industrial chemical, food, pet care,
agricultural chemical, automotive and marine chemical products; and metal,
composite and plastic vacuum closures for food and beverage products. We are the
largest manufacturer of metal food containers in North America, a leading
manufacturer of plastic containers in North America for a variety of markets,
including the personal care, health care, household and industrial chemical and
pet care markets, and a leading worldwide manufacturer of metal, composite and
plastic vacuum closures for food and beverage products.
Our objective is to increase shareholder value by efficiently deploying capital
and management resources to grow our business, reduce operating costs, build
sustainable competitive positions, or franchises, and to complete acquisitions
that generate attractive cash returns. We have grown our net sales and income
from operations over the years, largely through acquisitions but also through
internal growth, and we continue to evaluate acquisition opportunities in the
consumer goods packaging market. If acquisition opportunities are not identified
over a longer period of time, we may use our cash flow to repay debt, repurchase
shares of our common stock or increase dividends to our stockholders or for
other permitted purposes.
In February 2008, we acquired substantially all of the assets of Vem, a
manufacturer of metal closures in Spain and China, for an aggregate purchase
price of $10.2 million. In April 2008, we acquired the White Cap closures
operation in Brazil for an aggregate purchase price of $4.3 million, net of cash
acquired, thereby concluding our acquisition of the White Cap closures
operations from Amcor Limited.

Three Months Ended June 30, 2008 Compared with Three Months Ended June 30, 2007
Overview. Consolidated net sales were $735.3 million in the second quarter of
2008, representing a 7.6 percent increase as compared to the second quarter of
2007 primarily as a result of higher average selling prices across all
businesses largely attributable to the pass through of higher raw material and
other manufacturing costs and favorable foreign currency translation, partially
offset by lower unit volumes in the metal food and plastic container businesses.
Income from operations for the second quarter of 2008 of $64.9 million increased
by $6.4 million, or 10.9 percent, as compared to the same period in 2007 due to
manufacturing efficiencies and cost control across all businesses, a favorable
mix of products sold in the plastic container business and higher unit volumes
in the closures business, partially offset by inflation in manufacturing and
other costs and lower unit volumes in the metal food and plastic container
businesses. Results for 2008 included rationalization charges of $2.7 million.
Results for 2007 included rationalization charges of $2.3 million. Net income
for the second quarter of 2008 was $33.3 million, or $0.87 per diluted share, as
compared to $26.8 million, or $0.70 per diluted share, for the same period in
2007.
Net Sales. The $51.7 million increase in consolidated net sales in the second
quarter of 2008 as compared to the second quarter of 2007 was the result of
higher net sales across all businesses.
Net sales for the metal food container business increased $12.5 million, or 3.4
percent, in the second quarter of 2008 as compared to the same period in 2007.
This increase was primarily attributable to higher average selling prices as a
result of the pass through of inflation in raw material and other manufacturing
costs, partially offset by lower unit volumes.
Net sales for the plastic container business in the second quarter of 2008
increased $9.7 million, or 6.2 percent, as compared to the same period in 2007.
This increase was primarily due to higher average selling prices as a result of
the pass through of higher raw material costs, a more favorable mix of products
sold and the impact of favorable foreign currency translation of approximately
$3.1 million, partially offset by lower unit volumes attributable to generally
soft market demand.
Net sales for the closures business increased $29.5 million, or 18.3 percent, in
the second quarter of 2008 as compared to the same period in 2007. This increase
was primarily the result of favorable foreign currency translation of
approximately $12.5 million, higher average selling prices due to the pass
through of higher raw material costs and an increase in unit volumes, including
from the recently acquired Vem and White Cap Brazil operations.
Gross Profit. Gross profit margin increased 0.2 percentage points to 14.7
percent in the second quarter of 2008 as compared to the same period in 2007 for
the reasons discussed below in "Income from Operations."
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. Selling, general and
administrative expenses as a percentage of consolidated net sales decreased 0.1
percentage points to 5.5 percent for the second quarter of 2008 as compared to
5.6 percent for the same period in 2007, due primarily to cost control measures
across all businesses.
Income from Operations. Income from operations for the second quarter of 2008
increased by $6.4 million, or 10.9 percent, as compared to the second quarter of
2007, and operating margin increased to 8.8 percent from 8.6 percent over the
same periods.
-22-
Income from operations of the metal food container business for the second
quarter of 2008 increased $5.4 million, or 19.5 percent, as compared to the same
period in 2007, and operating margin increased to 8.8 percent from 7.6 percent
over the same periods. These increases were primarily a result of cost control
and manufacturing efficiencies, including the benefits from the closing of the
St. Paul, Minnesota and Stockton, California manufacturing facilities, slightly
offset by lower unit volumes. The second quarter of 2008 included total
rationalization charges of $2.0 million primarily related to ongoing costs to
exit the St. Paul manufacturing facility as well as costs incurred for the
shutdown of the Tarrant, Alabama manufacturing facility. The second quarter of
2007 included rationalization charges of $2.1 million related to costs to exit
the St. Paul and Stockton manufacturing facilities.
Income from operations of the plastic container business for the second quarter
of 2008 increased $1.2 million, or 9.7 percent, as compared to the same period
in 2007, and operating margin increased to 8.1 percent from 7.9 percent over the
same periods. These increases were primarily a result of a favorable mix of
products sold, improved manufacturing efficiencies and cost control, partially
offset by inflation in manufacturing and other costs and a decrease in unit
volumes attributable to generally soft market demand.
Income from operations of the closures business for the second quarter of 2008
increased $1.0 million, or 4.8 percent, as compared to the same period in 2007,
while operating margin decreased to 11.4 percent from 12.9 percent over the same
periods. The increase in income from operations was due primarily to unit volume
increases, partially offset by inflation in manufacturing and other costs and
rationalization charges of $0.6 million recognized in the second quarter of 2008
related to the streamlining of certain operations and consolidation of various
administrative positions in Europe. Operating margin was also negatively
impacted as a result of the inventory write-up for purchase accounting in the
recently acquired Vem and White Cap Brazil operations.
Interest and Other Debt Expense. Interest and other debt expense for the second
quarter of 2008 decreased $2.1 million to $14.8 million as compared to the same
period in 2007. This decrease was primarily due to lower market interest rates
and higher interest income attributable to the cash on hand during the quarter.
Provision for Income Taxes. The effective tax rate for the second quarter of
2008 was 33.6 percent as compared to 35.6 percent in the same period of 2007.
The effective tax rate for the second quarter of 2008 benefited from a $1.7
million tax credit related to certain non-recurring state tax incentives
associated with capital investments.
Six Months Ended June 30, 2008 Compared with Six Months Ended June 30, 2007
Overview. Consolidated net sales were $1.42 billion in the first six months of
2008, representing a 6.0 percent increase as compared to the first six months of
2007 primarily due to higher average selling prices resulting from the pass
through of inflation in raw material and other manufacturing costs, favorable
foreign currency translation and an increase in unit volumes in the closures
business, slightly offset by lower unit volumes in the metal food and plastic
container businesses. Income from operations for the first six months of 2008
decreased by $5.8 million, or 4.8 percent, as compared to the same period in
2007. The decrease in income from operations was a result of $4.0 million of
higher rationalization charges incurred in 2008, benefits realized in the first
quarter of 2007 due to the lagged pass through of declines in resin costs in the
plastic container business, higher depreciation expense, inflation in
manufacturing and other costs and lower unit volumes in the metal food and
plastic container businesses. The results for the first six months of 2008 and
2007 included rationalization charges of $7.4 million and $3.4 million,
respectively. Net income for the first six months of 2008 was $54.5 million, or
$1.42 per diluted share, as compared to $55.3 million, or $1.45 per diluted
share, for the same period in 2007.

Net Sales. The $80.7 million increase in consolidated net sales in the first six
months of 2008 as compared to the first six months of 2007 was due to higher net
sales across all of our businesses.
Net sales for the metal food container business increased $18.1 million, or 2.5
percent, in the first six months of 2008 as compared to the same period in 2007.
This increase was primarily attributable to higher average selling prices due to
the pass through of inflation in raw material and other manufacturing costs,
partially offset by lower unit volumes.
Net sales for the plastic container business in the first six months of 2008
increased $19.4 million, or 6.1 percent, as compared to the same period in 2007.
This increase was primarily the result of higher average selling prices as a
result of the pass through of higher raw material costs and the impact of
favorable foreign currency translation of approximately $8.3 million, slightly
offset by lower unit volumes attributable to generally soft market demand.
Net sales for the closures business in the first six months of 2008 increased
$43.2 million, or 14.2 percent, as compared to the same period in 2007. This
increase was the result of favorable foreign currency translation of
approximately $21.8 million, higher average selling prices due to the pass
through of higher raw material costs and an increase in unit volumes.
Gross Profit. Gross Profit margin decreased 0.9 percentage points to 14.0
percent for the first six months of 2008 as compared to the same period in 2007
for the reasons discussed below in "Income from Operations."
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. Selling, general and
administrative expenses as a percentage of consolidated net sales decreased to
5.4 percent for the first six months of 2008 as compared to 5.6 percent for the
same period in 2007, due primarily to the recognition in the first quarter of
2008 of management fee income of $2.2 million from the management of the White
Cap Brazil closures operations during the delayed closing period up until it was
acquired from Amcor Limited.
Income from Operations. Income from operations for the first six months of 2008
decreased by $5.8 million, or 4.8 percent, as compared to the first six months
of 2007, and operating margin decreased to 8.1 percent from 9.0 percent over the
same periods.
Income from operations of the metal food container business for the first six
months of 2008 increased $1.7 million, or 3.0 percent, as compared to the same
period in 2007, while operating margin remained constant at 8.0 percent over the
same periods. The increase in income from operations was principally due to cost
control and manufacturing efficiencies, including the benefits from closing the
St. Paul and Stockton manufacturing facilities. The increase in income from
operations was partially offset by benefits derived in the first quarter of 2007
from the provisional inventory build in anticipation of certain union
negotiations which were completed in the second quarter of 2007, lower unit
volumes and higher depreciation expense. Rationalization charges for the first
six months of 2008 and 2007 were $3.3 million and $3.2 million, respectively.
-24-
Income from operations of the plastic container business for the first six
months of 2008 decreased $6.0 million, or 18.6 percent, as compared to the same
period in 2007, and operating margin decreased to 7.7 percent from 10.1 percent
over the same periods. These decreases were primarily the result of the negative
effect from the timing of the pass through of resin costs to customers
particularly in light of escalating resin costs experienced in 2008 as compared
to declines in resin costs experienced in the first quarter of 2007, inflation
in manufacturing and other costs, a decrease in unit volumes and higher
depreciation expense. These decreases were partially offset by a favorable mix
of products sold, improved manufacturing efficiencies and cost control.
Rationalization charges for the first six months of 2008 and 2007 were $0.8
million and $0.2 million, respectively.
Income from operations of the closures business for the first six months of 2008
decreased $0.3 million, or 0.8 percent, as compared to the same period in 2007,
and operating margin decreased to 10.4 percent from 12.0 percent over the same
periods. These decreases were due primarily to rationalization charges of $3.3
million recognized in 2008 related to the streamlining of certain operations and
consolidation of various administrative positions in Europe, inflation in raw
materials and other costs and the benefit recognized in the first quarter of
2007 of $1.4 million from the sale of certain previously leased capping
equipment. These decreases were partially offset by management fee income of
$2.2 million from the pre-acquisition management of the White Cap Brazil
operations and an increase in unit volumes.
Interest and Other Debt Expense. Interest and other debt expense for the first
six months of 2008 decreased $1.9 million to $31.1 million as compared to the
same period in 2007. This decrease resulted primarily from lower market interest
rates and higher interest income attributable to the cash on hand during 2008,
partially offset by the effects of higher average borrowings.
Provision for Income Taxes. The effective tax rate for the first six months of
2008 was 34.9 percent as compared to 36.9 percent in the same period of 2007.
The effective tax rate for the first six months of 2008 benefited from a $1.7
million tax credit related to certain non-recurring state tax incentives
associated with capital investments.
CAPITAL RESOURCES AND LIQUIDITY
Our principal sources of liquidity have been cash from operations and borrowings
under our debt instruments, including our Credit Agreement. Our liquidity
requirements arise primarily from our obligations under the indebtedness
incurred in connection with our acquisitions and the refinancing of that
indebtedness, capital investment in new and existing equipment and the funding
of our seasonal working capital needs.
For the six months ended June 30, 2008, we used net borrowings of revolving
loans of $196.3 million, other debt borrowings of $8.0 million, net proceeds
from stock-based compensation issuances of $2.9 million and cash balances of
$9.9 million to fund cash used in operations of $44.0 million primarily for our
seasonal working capital needs, net capital expenditures of $54.5 million, our
acquisition of Vem and the White Cap Brazil operations for $14.5 million, net of
cash acquired, decreases in outstanding checks of $88.1 million, the repayment
of debt of $3.0 million and dividends paid on our common stock of $13.0 million.
At the end of 2007 and through the second quarter of 2008 in light of the
current credit markets, we maintained a significant amount of cash to reduce our
dependency on our revolving credit facility for our seasonal working capital
requirements. Our cash balance at June 30, 2008 was $86.1 million.
-25-
For the six months ended June 30, 2007, we used net borrowings of revolving
loans of $234.0 million and net proceeds from stock-based compensation issuances
of $1.3 million to fund cash used in operations of $37.9 million primarily for
our seasonal working capital needs, net capital expenditures of $72.9 million,
our acquisition of the White Cap operations in Venezuela for $7.8 million, net
of cash acquired, decreases in outstanding checks of $96.1 million and dividends
paid on our common stock of $12.1 million and to increase cash balances by $8.5
million.
Because we sell metal containers used in fruit and vegetable pack processing, we
have seasonal sales. As is common in the industry, we must utilize working
capital to build inventory and then carry accounts receivable for some customers
beyond the end of the packing season. Due to our seasonal requirements, we incur
short-term indebtedness to finance our working capital requirements.
At June 30, 2008, we had $193.2 million of revolving loans outstanding under the
Credit Agreement. After taking into account outstanding letters of credit, the
available portion of the revolving loan facility under the Credit Agreement at
June 30, 2008 was $215.8 million. We may use the available portion of our
revolving loan facility, after taking into account our seasonal needs and
outstanding letters of credit, for acquisitions or other permitted purposes.
During 2008, we estimate that we will utilize approximately $300 - $350 million
of revolving loans under the Credit Agreement for our peak seasonal working
capital requirements, which amount could be lower to the extent we utilize cash
on hand.
During the first six months of 2008, we paid cash dividends on our common stock
totaling $13.0 million. On August 6, 2008, our Board of Directors declared a
quarterly cash dividend on our common stock of $0.17 per share, payable on
September 15, 2008 to holders of record of our common stock on August 29, 2008.
The cash payment related to this dividend is expected to be approximately $6.5
million.
We believe that cash generated from operations and funds from borrowings
available under the Credit Agreement will be sufficient to meet our expected
operating needs, planned capital expenditures, debt service, tax obligations,
share repurchases required under our 2004 Stock Incentive Plan and common stock
dividends for the foreseeable future. We continue to evaluate acquisition
opportunities in the consumer goods packaging market and may incur additional
indebtedness, including indebtedness under the Credit Agreement, to finance any
such acquisition.
We are in compliance with all financial and operating covenants contained in our
financing agreements and believe that we will continue to be in compliance
during 2008 with all of these covenants.
Rationalization Charges
In the first quarter of 2008, as part of our ongoing effort to streamline
operations and reduce costs, we approved plans to close our metal food container
manufacturing facility in Tarrant, Alabama and our plastic container
manufacturing facility in Richmond, Virginia and to streamline certain
operations and consolidate various administrative positions within our European
closures operations.
-26-
Our plan to cease operations at our Tarrant facility in the third quarter of
2008 includes the termination of approximately 35 employees and other related
plant exit costs. We estimate that the total costs for the rationalization of
this facility will be $2.8 million. These costs include $0.6 million for
employee severance and benefits, $1.5 million for plant exit costs and $1.1
million for the acceleration of depreciation to write-down equipment for
abandonment upon the exit of the facility, offset by $0.4 million for a non-cash
curtailment gain for other postretirement benefits. Rationalization charges
recognized during the first six months of 2008 for this action were $1.6
million, of which $1.1 million was incurred for the accelerated depreciation of
equipment and $0.5 million was incurred for employee severance and benefits.
Additional charges of $1.2 million are expected through 2009. Remaining cash
payments of $1.8 million are expected through 2009.
Our plan to cease operations at our Richmond facility in the third quarter of
2008 includes the termination of approximately 15 employees and other related
plant exit costs. We estimate that the total costs for the rationalization of
this facility will be $1.6 million. These costs include $0.2 million for
employee severance and benefits, $0.6 million for plant exit costs and $0.8
million for the non-cash write-down in carrying value of assets. Rationalization
charges recognized during the first six months of 2008 for this action were $0.8
million for the non-cash write-down in carrying value of assets. Additional
charges and related payments of $0.8 million are expected primarily in 2008.
Our plans to consolidate various administrative positions and streamline
operations at certain of our closure manufacturing facilities in Europe include
the termination of approximately 90 employees and the relocation of certain
operations into existing facilities. These decisions resulted in a total charge
to earnings during the first six months of 2008 of $3.3 million, which consisted
of $3.1 million for employee severance and benefits and $0.2 million for plant
exit costs. Additional charges of $0.5 million for employee severance and
benefits are expected during the remainder of 2008. Remaining cash payments of
$2.5 million are expected primarily in 2008.
In 2006, we announced our plans to exit our St. Paul, Minnesota and Stockton,
California metal food container manufacturing facilities. We have ceased
operations at both of these facilities. We incurred charges of $1.7 million in
the first six months of 2008 related primarily to the St. Paul rationalization.
We expect to incur additional charges of $0.4 million for plant exit costs
through 2008 related to the St. Paul and Stockton rationalizations.
Under our rationalization plans, we made cash payments of $3.8 million and $0.7
million for the six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively. Total
future cash spending of $10.0 million is expected for our outstanding
rationalization plans.
You should also read Note 3 to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
for the three and six months ended June 30, 2008 included elsewhere in this
Quarterly Report.
We continually evaluate cost reduction opportunities in our business, including
rationalizations of our existing facilities through plant closings and
downsizings. We use a disciplined approach to identify opportunities that
generate attractive cash returns. In line with our ongoing evaluation, we are
currently reviewing certain facilities for potential rationalization actions
which may result in additional cash expenditures and charges to our earnings.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157 "Fair Value Measurements." SFAS
No. 157 establishes a single authoritative definition for fair value, sets out a
framework for measuring fair value, and requires additional disclosures about
fair value measurements. In February 2008, the FASB issued FSP No. 157-2,
"Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 157." FSP No. 157-2 delays the effective
date of our adoption of SFAS No. 157, as it relates to applying fair value
measurements to nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities that are not
recognized or disclosed on a recurring basis (at least annually), to January 1,
2009. We adopted SFAS No. 157, as it relates to financial assets and financial
liabilities, on January 1, 2008. The adoption of SFAS No. 157 did not have a
significant effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash
flows. We are currently evaluating the impact that SFAS No. 157, as it relates
to nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities, will have on our
consolidated financial statements. You should also read Note 7 to our Condensed
Consolidated Financial Statements for the three and six months ended June 30,
2008 included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report.
In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, "The Fair Value Option for
Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities-Including an amendment of FASB
Statement No. 115." SFAS No. 159 permits entities to elect to measure eligible
financial instruments and certain other items at fair value that are not
currently required to be measured at fair value. We adopted SFAS No. 159 on
January 1, 2008. We have elected not to measure eligible items at fair value,
and therefore our adoption of SFAS No. 159 did not have an effect on our
financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141(R), "Business Combinations." SFAS
No. 141(R) retains the fundamental requirements in SFAS No. 141 that the
purchase method of accounting be used for all business combinations and for an
acquirer to be identified for each business combination. SFAS No. 141(R)
establishes principles and requirements for the reporting entity in a business
combination, including recognition and measurement in the financial statements
of the identifiable assets acquired, the liabilities assumed and any
non-controlling interest at their fair values at the acquisition date. SFAS No.
141(R) also requires that acquisition-related costs be recognized separately
from the acquisition. SFAS No. 141(R) applies prospectively to business
combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after January 1, 2009. In
addition, SFAS No. 141(R) requires that any changes in an acquired deferred tax
account or related valuation allowance that occur after the effective date of
adoption will be recognized as adjustments to income tax expense. We are
currently evaluating the impact that SFAS No. 141(R) will have on our
consolidated financial statements.
In March 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 161, "Disclosures about Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities." SFAS No. 161 requires companies with
derivative instruments to disclose information that should enable
financial-statement users to understand how and why a company uses derivative
instruments, how derivative instruments and related hedged items are accounted
for under SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging
Activities" and how derivative instruments and related hedged items affect a
company's financial position, financial performance and cash flows. SFAS No. 161
is effective for us on January 1, 2009. We are currently evaluating the impact,
if any, that SFAS No. 161 will have on our consolidated financial statements.

Item 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
----------------------------------------------------------
Market risks relating to our operations result primarily from changes in
interest rates and, with respect to our international closures operations and
our Canadian plastic container operations, from foreign currency exchange rates.
In the normal course of business, we also have risk related to commodity price
changes for items such as natural gas. We employ established policies and
procedures to manage our exposure to these risks. Interest rate, foreign
currency and commodity pricing transactions are used only to the extent
considered necessary to meet our objectives. We do not utilize derivative
financial instruments for trading or other speculative purposes.
Information regarding our interest rate risk, foreign currency exchange rate
risk and commodity pricing risk has been disclosed in our Annual Report on Form
10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2007. Since such filing there has
not been a material change to our interest rate risk, foreign currency exchange
rate risk or commodity pricing risk or to our policies and procedures to manage
our exposure to these risks.
Item 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
-----------------------
We carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation
of management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial
Officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as
defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934). Based upon
that evaluation, as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report
our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the
disclosure controls and procedures are effective in ensuring that all material
information required to be disclosed in this Quarterly Report has been made
known to them in a timely fashion.
There were no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting during
the period covered by this Quarterly Report that have materially affected, or
are reasonably likely to materially affect, these internal controls.
