In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations and changes in cash flows at November 30, 1999 and for the periods presented have been made and are of a normal recurring nature.

      The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions for Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required for complete financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. It is suggested that these condensed consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s 1999 Annual Report to Shareholders and incorporated by reference in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended August 31, 1999.

4. Net Income Per Share

      The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted net income per share of Common Stock in accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 128:

		Three Months Ended November 30,
		1999		1998
Net income		$	4,417,047	$	3,964,407
Weighted average shares outstanding — basic			9,411,473		9,526,884
Effect of dilutive securities:
	Stock options		57,200		72,111
Weighted average shares outstanding — diluted			9,468,673		9,598,995
Basic net income per share		$	0.47	$	0.42
Diluted net income per share		$	0.47	$	0.41

      Securities not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share for the periods presented were as follows:

	Three Months Ended November 30,
	1999		1998
Stock options		1,044,470		654,479
Option price range	$	12.50-$19.16	$	12.82-$19.16

      The options to purchase shares of Common Stock not included in the computation of diluted net income per share for the periods presented were excluded because the exercise price of the stock options was higher than the average market price of the Common Stock during the period.

5. Business Acquisition

      On September 1, 1999, the Company purchased the specialty corrugated containers, heavy wall corrugated fabrication and custom wood crating business of Lane Container Company of Dallas, Texas for a combination of cash, the assumption of certain liabilities and certain contingent payments. The amount paid and to be paid in connection with the acquisition is not material. The Company is continuing the business acquired at its current location under a lease with a third party. The acquisition was accounted for as a purchase, with a portion of the purchase price allocated to goodwill.

6. Share Repurchase Program

      In October 1998, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to 250,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock at prices not to exceed $15 per share through August 1999. In August 1999, the authorization was extended through August 2000 with no increase in the maximum number of shares that may be repurchased or the maximum price per share that may be paid. During fiscal 1999, the Company repurchased 123,850 shares of Common Stock at prices ranging from $9.94 to $13.94 per share and during the three months ended November 30, 1999, the Company repurchased 45,900 shares of Common Stock at prices ranging from $11.31 to $12.69 per share.

7. Business Segment and Geographical Information

      The Company currently operates in a single business segment as a designer and manufacturer of protective packaging, material handling solutions and componentry. The Company has product design, sales and manufacturing operations in the U.S. and the U.K. along with sales and manufacturing operations in Maquiladora zones in Mexico. The geographic distribution of net sales and operating income (loss) for the three months ended November 30, 1999 and 1998 and of long-lived assets at November 30, 1999 and August 31, 1999 is set forth below. A portion of U.S. selling expenses have been allocated to the Mexican operations for the periods presented since a majority of the design and selling activity for the Mexican operations is performed by U.S. personnel. Operating income (loss) is gross profit less selling and administrative expenses.

		Total	$	115,365,635	$	112,951,823

8. Claims and Contingencies

      A lawsuit seeking substantial compensatory and punitive damages as a result of the alleged wrongful death of an employee was filed against the Company in December 1996 and is scheduled for trial in June 2000. In addition, a number of legal and administrative proceedings against the Company involving claims of employment discrimination are pending. In the opinion of management, the dispositions of the lawsuit and the proceedings should not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

9. Other Information

      The Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 133, “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities” in 1998, but deferred the effective date in SFAS No. 137, “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities: Deferral of the Effective Date of SFAS No. 133.” SFAS No. 137 defers for one year the effective date of SFAS No. 133. SFAS No. 133 will apply to all fiscal quarters of all fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2000, and when adopted by the Company, is not expected to have a material effect on the consolidated financial statements.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Results
of Operations and Financial Condition

Results of Operations — Three Months Ended November 30, 1999
Compared to Three Months Ended November 30, 1998

      Net sales of Tuscarora Incorporated (the Company) for the three months ended November 30, 1999 were $64.7 million, an increase of $4.3 million, or 7.0%, over the same period of fiscal 1999. Approximately 70% of the increase in net sales was due to the businesses acquired from Berry Packaging, Inc. in February 1999 and Lane Container Company in September 1999. The balance of the increase in net sales was due to higher sales in most all end use markets in North America. The overall increase in net sales was partially offset by slightly lower overall sales to customers in the consumer electronics industry and by a decrease in net sales of the Company’s thermoforming operations.

      Gross profit for the three months ended November 30, 1999 amounted to $16.3 million, or 25.2% of net sales, compared to $15.1 million, or 25.0% of net sales in fiscal 1999. The increase in gross profit margin for the current period is due primarily to continuing improvements in operating efficiency at many of the Company’s manufacturing facilities.

      Selling and administrative expenses for the three months ended November 30, 1999 increased 7.6%, or $582,000, to $8.2 million but remained constant as a percentage of net sales at 12.7%. The increase was due primarily to higher employee costs which were added in the latter half of fiscal 1999 and to costs added with the acquisition of Lane Container Company in September 1999.

      Net sales and operating loss for the U.K. operations for the three months ended November 30, 1999 were $6.5 million and $59,000, respectively, compared to $6.6 million and $26,000, respectively in the same period of fiscal 1999. In the U.K., gross profit performance demonstrated continued modest improvement although trading conditions there remained weak.

      Net sales and operating income for the Mexican operations for the three months ended November 30, 1999 were $6.1 million and $361,550, respectively, compared to $5.2 million and $316,651, respectively, for the same period of fiscal 1999. The net sales increased due to higher sales to customers in the consumer electronics industry as customers continue to relocate manufacturing operations along the Mexican border. In both periods, however, operating margins were adversely impacted by start-up costs at the Tijuana facility.

      Interest expense for the three months ended November 30, 1999 remained unchanged at $1.2 million when compared to the same period of the prior fiscal year.

      Income before income taxes for the three months ended November 30, 1999 increased to $7.1 million from $6.3 million in the same period in fiscal 1999, an increase of 11.4%. The effective income tax rate remained unchanged at 37.5% when compared to the same period of the prior fiscal year.

      Net income for the three months ended November 30, 1999 was $4.4 million compared to $4.0 million earned in the same period of fiscal 1999, an increase of 11.4%. The increase in net income was due to the higher gross profit. The results for both net sales and net income represent quarterly records for the Company.

9

Liquidity and Capital Resources

      Cash provided by operating activities for the three months ended November 30, 1999 amounted to $4.7 million compared to $2.3 million for the same period of fiscal 1999. Depreciation and amortization amounted to $4.5 million for the current period compared to $4.2 million for the same period of the prior fiscal year. Because a substantial portion of the Company’s operating expenses are attributable to depreciation and amortization, the Company believes that its liquidity would not be adversely affected should a period of reduced earnings occur.

      Inventories and accounts payable at November 30, 1999 increased to $26.7 million and $17.2 million, respectively, from $22.5 million and $15.1 million, respectively, at August 31, 1999, as the Company continues to maintain higher levels of EPS resin ahead of announced price increases by its raw material suppliers. Accounts receivable at November 30, 1999 increased to $38.4 million from $33.4 million at August 31, 1999 due principally to the higher sales during the period and to the acquisition of Lane Container Company in September 1999.

      Capital expenditures for property, plant and equipment during the three months ended November 30, 1999 amounted to $4.1 million, including approximately $551,000 for environmental control equipment. Approximately 40% of the capital expenditures were for building and leasehold improvements, including the purchase and refurbishment of an integrated materials facility in Darlington, Pennsylvania, to which the Company has transferred its integrated materials manufacturing operations from a leased facility in Beaver, Pennsylvania. A majority of the balance of the capital expenditures was for molding presses and related equipment.

      In September 1999, the Company acquired the specialty corrugated containers, heavy wall corrugated and custom wood crating business of Lane Container Company in Dallas, Texas (see Note 5 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements). During the three months ended November 30, 1999, expenditures for business acquisitions, net of cash acquired, substantially all of which related to this acquisition, amounted to $3.5 million. The Company will continue to look for acquisitions which will mesh well with the Company’s business.

      On September 23, 1999, the Company entered into a new credit agreement with its principal bank and a second bank. The new agreement provides for a revolving credit facility of $45.0 million and $45.0 million in five-year term-notes. The Company initially borrowed $19.0 million under the revolving credit facility and $45.0 million under the term-notes. The proceeds were used to repay in full the outstanding borrowings under the previous credit agreement.

      Long-term debt increased from $60.1 million at August 31, 1999 to $62.8 million at November 30, 1999, of which $59.4 million was borrowed under the credit agreement referred to above, including $20.0 million of the available $45.0 million revolving credit facility. During the three months ended November 30, 1999, $3.5 million was borrowed under both the previous and the new revolving credit facility primarily to fund the acquisition of Lane Container Company in September 1999 and other capital expenditures.

      During the three months ended November 30, 1999, the Company expended $567,413 in connection with its current share repurchase program (see Note 6 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements). On December 15, 1999, the Company declared a regular semi-annual cash dividend of $0.135 per share payable on January 6, 2000 to shareholders of record on December 27, 1999. Cash dividends of $0.12 per share were paid in both January and July 1999.

      Cash provided by operating activities as supplemented by the amount available under the new credit agreement should be sufficient to fund the Company’s operating needs, capital requirements and dividend payments as well as the Company’s share repurchase program.

10

Market Risks

      The Company is exposed to market risk from changes in interest rates and foreign exchange rates. There has been no material change in the Company’s exposure to market risks since August 31, 1999.

Year 2000 Compliance

      Before the end of fiscal 1999, the Company completed its assessment of the possible effect on the Company and its business of a malfunction of computers and other equipment with computer microchip processors that could not properly process dates after December 31, 1999. The scope of the Company’s efforts included (i) an evaluation of the Company’s business information systems and manufacturing machinery and equipment, primarily its custom molding machines, (ii) an evaluation of the Year 2000 readiness of the Company’s major raw material suppliers to determine if the Company should anticipate any problems in obtaining the Company’s needed raw materials and (iii) an evaluation of significant customers whose Year 2000 readiness could cause a loss of business that might be material to the Company.

      The Company converted its financial systems software to AS/400 based J. D. Edwards software which is Year 2000 compliant and upgraded its payroll, manufacturing and informational support systems. Hundreds of computers throughout the Company were tested and repaired or replaced as necessary. The Company successfully entertained Year 2000 assessment visits from some of its largest customers. The Company believes its business information systems and manufacturing machinery and equipment are Year 2000 compliant. To date, the Company has not experienced any Year 2000 problems in connection with its business information systems or manufacturing machinery and equipment.

      All major raw material suppliers and the vast majority of the Company’s customers were contacted regarding their Year 2000 readiness and responses were received. Based on the information received, the Company does not anticipate there will be problems with respect to either its suppliers or customers.

      The Year 2000 readiness of third parties is beyond the Company’s control and, although the Company has not received notice that any third party is experiencing Year 2000 problems to date, the most reasonably likely worst case scenario of failure of the Company’s key suppliers and customers to resolve their Year 2000 issues would be a short-term shutdown of manufacturing operations at one or more of the Company’s facilities. In order to minimize the risk of failure of third parties to correct their Year 2000 issues in a timely manner, the Company has a contingency plan that would be put into effect in case such an event were to occur. The plan includes maintaining an inventory of raw materials and finished goods, purchasing raw materials from a number of raw material suppliers and a plan to quickly move manufacturing machinery and/or production molds from any plants that might be rendered inoperative to other similar plants to fulfill production requirements.

      Primarily because the Year 2000 readiness of third parties is beyond the Company’s control, the Company, like others, is vulnerable to business disruption, financial loss and other risks. However, to date, the Company has not experienced, and does not expect to experience, any problems in connection with the Year 2000 issue that could not be resolved without materially affecting the Company’s business, results of operations or financial condition. The cost to the Company of assessing and remediating Year 2000 issues has not been, and is not expected to be, significant.

Other

      The impact of inflation on both the Company’s results of operations and financial condition has been minimal and is not expected to adversely effect fiscal 2000 results.

      In 1998, the FASB issued SFAS No. 133, “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities”. In 1999, the FASB issued SFAS No. 137, “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities: Deferral of the Effective Date of SFAS Statement No. 133.” SFAS No. 137 defers for one year the effective date of SFAS No. 133. SFAS No. 133 will apply to all fiscal quarters of all fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2000, and, when adopted by the Company, is not expected to have a material effect on the consolidated financial statements.

Forward-Looking Statements

      This Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Results of Operations and Financial Condition and the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements contain, in addition to historical information, certain forward-looking statements. Such statements (which are typically identified by the words “believe”, “should”, “expect”, “anticipate” and other expressions that look to the future) are based on assumptions and expectations which, although believed to be reasonable based on information available to the Company, are inherently subject to risks and uncertainties and which, consequently, may or may not be realized. The risks and uncertainties inherent in the assumptions and expectations could be material, and include, but are not limited to, economic and market conditions, the impact of competition, consumer buying trends, pricing trends, fluctuations in the cost and availability of raw materials and the ability to maintain favorable customer and supplier relationships and arrangements. The Company undertakes no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements.
