Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)


Note A — Basis of Presentation, Nature of Operations and Summary of Accounting Policies

Organization and Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission for quarterly reports on Form 10-Q. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals and estimated provisions for bonus and profit-sharing arrangements) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the six months ended April 30, 2005 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending October 29, 2005.

These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Form 10-K filed by Plastipak Holdings, Inc. (Plastipak) with the Securities and Exchange Commission on January 28, 2005.

Reclassifications

Certain reclassifications have been made to the 2004 financial information in order for them to conform to the classifications at April 30, 2005.

Note B — Fiscal Period

Plastipak has elected a 52/53 week fiscal period for tax and financial reporting purposes. Plastipak’s fiscal period ends on the Saturday closest to October 31. The three month periods ended April 30, 2005 and May 1, 2004 contained 13 weeks. The six month periods ended April 30, 2005 and May 1, 2004 contained 26 weeks.

Note C — New Accounting Pronouncements

In November 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 151 (“SFAS 151”), “Inventory Costs”. SFAS 151 amends the guidance in ARB No. 43, Chapter 4, Inventory Pricing, to clarify the accounting for abnormal amounts of idle facility expense, freight, handling costs and spoilage. This statement requires that these items be expensed as incurred and not included in overhead. In addition, SFAS 151 requires that allocation of fixed production overhead to conversion costs should be based on normal capacity of the production facilities. This Statement is effective for inventory costs incurred during fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2005. The Company is currently evaluating the impact from this standard on its results of operations and financial position.

In December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 153 (“SFAS 153”), “Exchanges of Nonmonetary Assets”. SFAS 153, amends APB Opinion No. 29, “Accounting for Nonmonetary Transactions”. This statement eliminates the exception to fair value in Opinion 29 for exchanges of similar productive assets and replaces it with a general exception for exchanges that do not have commercial substance. This Statement is effective for nonmonetary asset exchanges occurring in fiscal periods beginning after June 15, 2005. Therefore, the Company will be required to adopt SFAS 153 on October 31, 2005. The Company historically has not engaged in significant exchanges that are included in the scope of SFAS 153.

Note C — New Accounting Pronouncements — Continued

In December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement No. 123(R) (“SFAS 123(R)”), “Share-Based Payment”. This statement replaces Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 (“SFAS 123”), “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation”, and supersedes APB Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees”. SFAS 123(R) will require compensation costs related to share-based payment transactions to be recognized in the financial statements (with limited exceptions). The amount of compensation cost will be measured based on the grant-date fair value of the equity or liability instruments issued. Compensation cost will be recognized over the period that an employee provides service in exchange for the award. This statement is effective for public companies as of the beginning of the first annual reporting period that begins after June 15, 2005 and for nonpublic companies as of the beginning of the first annual reporting period that begins after December 15, 2005. The Company is currently evaluating the impact from this standard on its results of operations and financial position.

In December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued two FASB Staff Positions (FSP) that provide accounting guidance on how companies should account for the effects of the American Jobs Creation Act of 2004 that was signed into law on October 22, 2004. FSP FAS 109-1, Application of FASB Statement No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes”, to the Tax Deduction on Qualified Production Activities Provided by the American Jobs Creation Act of 2004”, states that the manufacturers’ deduction provided for under this legislation should be accounted for as a special deduction instead of a tax rate change. FSP FAS 109-2, “Accounting and Disclosure Guidance for the Foreign Earnings Repatriation Provision within the American Jobs Creation Act of 2004”, allows a company additional time to evaluate the effects of the legislation on any plan for reinvestment or repatriation of foreign earnings for purposes of applying Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes”. These FSP’s may affect how a company accounts for deferred income taxes. These FSP’s are effective December 21, 2004. The Company has completed its evaluation of these FSP’s. The adoption of these FSP’s did not have a material impact on its results of operations and financial position.

On January 28, 2005, the Company amended its revolving credit agreement and entered into the Fifth Amended and Restated Revolving Credit Agreement. The amendment provides for an increase in the line of credit from $150.0 million to $300.0 million. The agreement allows the Company to borrow up to $300.0 million subject to borrowing base limitations and covenant restrictions. Interest under the Amended Credit Agreement is payable at 175 to 350 basis points per annum over Eurodollar or at prime rates, as the Company selects. The Amended Credit Agreement is secured by substantially all of the assets, including pledges of the stock of Plastipak and all of its material foreign subsidiaries. Plastipak, Packaging, Whiteline, Clean Tech, and TABB are the borrowers and guarantors under the Amended Credit Agreement and Plastipak guarantees obligations under the Amended Credit Agreement. As of April 30, 2005, $59.4 million and $18.6 million in letters of credit and borrowings, respectively, were currently outstanding under the Fifth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement and the Company had $222.0 million available for borrowing subject to borrowing base limitations and covenant restrictions.

Note F — Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities

Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 133, “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities,” as amended by Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 138, “Accounting for Certain Derivative Instruments and Certain Hedging Activities,” requires companies to recognize all of their derivative instruments as either assets or liabilities at fair value in the statement of financial position. The accounting for changes in the fair value (i.e., gains or losses) of a derivative instrument depends on whether it has been designated and qualifies as part of a hedging relationship and further, on the type of hedging relationship. For those derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as hedging instruments, a company must designate the hedging instrument, based upon the exposure being hedged, as either a fair value hedge or a cash flow hedge.

Note F — Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities — Continued

For derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as a fair value hedge (i.e., hedging the exposure to changes in the fair value of an asset or a liability or an identified portion thereof that is attributable to a particular risk), the gain or loss on the derivative instrument as well as the offsetting loss or gain on the hedged item attributable to the hedged risk are recognized in current earnings during the period of the change in fair values. For derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as a cash flow hedge (i.e., hedging the exposure to variability in expected future cash flows that is attributable to a particular risk), the effective portion of the gain or loss on the derivative instrument is reported as a component of other comprehensive income and reclassified into earnings in the same period or periods during which the hedged transaction affects earnings. For derivative instruments not designated as hedging instruments, the gain or loss is recognized in current earnings during the period of change. The Company currently uses only fair value hedge accounting.

On March 11, 2003, the Company entered into two interest rate swap agreements. In connection with the Senior Notes, the Company exchanged fixed rate interest of 10.75% for variable rate interest. The interest rate swap agreements have notional amounts of $50.0 million each. The variable rates are equal to six month LIBOR plus 6.46% and 6.66%, respectively, for an 8-year period ending September 1, 2011. On February 18, 2005 pursuant to an agreement between the Company and the bank to terminate the interest rate swap agreements, the Company paid the bank $3,245,000 which has been recorded as a decrease in the senior notes and will be amortized over the term of the notes.

Note G – Stock Compensation Plans

Plastipak sponsors two Restricted Stock Bonus Plans: the Amended and Restated Restricted Stock Bonus Plan and the 2002 Restricted Stock Bonus Plan. The Company accounts for unexercised options under these plans under the recognition and measurement principles of APB Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees”, and related interpretations. The plans are considered to be variable plans and therefore, stock-based employee compensation cost for unexercised options is reflected in net income as a component of general and administrative expenses, as all options granted under those plans had an exercise price less than the market value of the underlying common stock on the date of grant. Amounts expensed for unexercised options approximate that which would have been expensed had the value of the options granted been computed under provisions of SFAS 123.

The Company accounts for shares issued under these plans under the provisions of SFAS 150, “Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and Equity”. The provisions of SFAS 150 were effective for the Company beginning in the first quarter of fiscal 2005. SFAS 150 requires that an issuer classify a financial instrument that is within its scope as a liability (or an asset in some circumstances). This statement requires an issuer to classify a financial instrument issued in the form of shares that is “mandatorily redeemable” and that embodies an unconditional obligation requiring the issuer (the Company) to redeem it by transferring its assets at specified or determinable date (or dates) or “upon an event that is certain to occur”. SFAS 150 requires that a company initially measure mandatorily redeemable instruments at fair value. The Company currently reflects a liability for these instruments at fair value; therefore, no initial transition adjustment was required.

Note G – Stock Compensation Plans — Continued

Each of the above-referenced plans require the Company, subject to certain limitations, to repurchase the shares issued under the plans at a price based upon a book value computation plus certain formula adjustments. Increases in the per share redemption value associated with shares issued under the plans are treated as interest expense and an increase to obligations under stock bonus plans. Included in interest expense for the three months and six months ended April 30, 2005 was $290,421 and $561,780, respectively. Increases in the per share redemption value associated with options granted under the plans are treated as compensation expense and an increase to obligations under stock bonus plans. Included in general and administrative expenses for the three and six months ended April 30, 2005 was $338,676 and $655,123, respectively, representing the excess of the redemption value over the exercise price for options granted and the increase in redemption value associated with unexercised options.

As of April 30, 2005, the balance of obligations under the stock bonus plans subject to mandatory redemption was $5,807,606. Under the Fifth Amended Credit Agreement, the Company may redeem equity interests of employees pursuant to the Restricted Stock Bonus Plans in amounts not to exceed $3,000,000 in the aggregate in any fiscal year.
