The accompanying notes are an integral part of these consolidated financial statements. 6 COTT CORPORATION NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Unaudited NOTE 1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION The interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with United States ("U.S.") generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). Accordingly, they do not include all information and notes presented in the annual consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP. In the opinion of management, the financial statements reflect all adjustments that are necessary for a fair statement of the results for the interim periods presented. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. Consolidated financial statements in accordance with Canadian GAAP, in U.S. dollars, are made available to all shareowners and filed with various Canadian regulatory authorities. NOTE 2 - BUSINESS SEASONALITY Cott's results from continuing operations for the first quarter ending March 30, 2002 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year due to business seasonality. Operating results are significantly impacted by business seasonality, which arises from higher sales in the second and third quarters versus the first and fourth quarters of the year in contrast to fixed costs such as depreciation, amortization and interest which are not significantly impacted by seasonal trends. NOTE 3 - INCOME TAXES The following table reconciles income taxes calculated at the basic Canadian corporate rates with the income tax provision:

7 COTT CORPORATION NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Unaudited NOTE 4 - EXTRAORDINARY ITEM On January 22, 2002, Cott redeemed the $276.4 million remaining balance of its senior unsecured notes maturing in 2005 and 2007 and paid the related accrued interest and early redemption penalties using the funds placed in an irrevocable trust for this purpose. A loss of $9.6 million, net of a deferred tax recovery of $4.5 million, was recorded on the early extinguishment of these senior notes. The loss is comprised of the early redemption penalty and the write off of the unamortized financing fees. NOTE 5 - CHANGE IN ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLE Effective December 30, 2001, Cott adopted SFAS No. 142 Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets for goodwill and other intangibles acquired prior to June 30, 2001. Cott adopted SFAS No. 142 for goodwill and other intangible assets acquired subsequent to June 30, 2001 in 2001. Under this standard, goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives are no longer amortized but are subject to an annual impairment test. Other intangible assets continue to be amortized over their estimated useful lives and are also tested for impairment. Cott completed a goodwill impairment test as of the adoption date for the standard and determined that unamortized goodwill of $44.8 million relating to the United Kingdom reporting unit was impaired under the new rules. The impairment loss, net of a nil tax recovery, has been recorded as a change in accounting principle. The goodwill amortization charged on the consolidated statement of income in the first quarter of 2001 was $0.9 million. Cott continues to amortize intangible assets acquired prior to June 30, 2001, other than goodwill, over their estimated useful lives. NOTE 6 - COMPREHENSIVE INCOME (LOSS)

8 COTT CORPORATION NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Unaudited NOTE 7 - INCOME (LOSS) PER SHARE Basic net income (loss) per common share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net income (loss) per share includes the effect of exercising stock options and converting the preferred shares, only if dilutive. The following table reconciles the basic weighted average number of shares outstanding to the diluted weighted average number of shares outstanding:

Amortization expense was $2.6 million for the period ended March 30, 2002 ($1.6 million - March 31, 2001). The amortization expense for the next five years is estimated at about $10 million per year for 2002 to 2004 and about $9 million per year for 2005 and 2006.

10 COTT CORPORATION NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Unaudited NOTE 12 - STOCK OPTION PLANS Pursuant to the SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, Cott has elected to account for its employee stock option plan under APB opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees. Accordingly, no compensation expense has been recognized for stock options issued under these plans. Had compensation expense for the plans been determined based on the fair value at the grant date consistent with SFAS No. 123, Cott's net income and income per common share would have been as follows:
MARCH 30, MARCH 31, 2002 2001 --------- --------- (in millions of U.S. dollars, except per share amounts) NET INCOME (LOSS) As reported $ (46.8) $ 5.1 Pro forma (48.1) 4.4 NET INCOME (LOSS) PER SHARE - BASIC As reported (0.76) 0.09 Pro forma (0.78) 0.07 NET INCOME (LOSS) PER SHARE - DILUTED As reported (0.76) 0.07 Pro forma (0.78) 0.06

NOTE 13 - CONTINGENCIES Cott is subject to various claims and legal proceedings with respect to matters such as governmental regulations, income taxes, and other actions arising out of the normal course of business. Management believes that the resolution of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on Cott's financial position or results from operations. 11 COTT CORPORATION NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Unaudited NOTE 14 - SEGMENT REPORTING Cott produces, packages and distributes retailer brand and branded bottled and canned soft drinks to regional and national grocery, mass-merchandise and wholesale chains in the United States, Canada and the United Kingdom & International. The concentrate assets and related expenses purchased in the second half of 2001 have been included in the Corporate & Other Segment for the three months ended March 30, 2002. Cott manages its beverage business by geographic segments as described below: BUSINESS SEGMENTS

Intersegment sales and total assets under the Corporate & Other caption include the elimination of intersegment sales, receivables and investments. For the quarter ended March 30, 2002, sales to two major customers accounted for 41% and 10%, respectively, of Cott's total sales (39% and 11% - March 31, 2001). 12 ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Cott Corporation is the world's largest retailer brand soft drink supplier, with the leading take home carbonated soft drink market shares in this segment in its core markets of the U.S., Canada and the U.K. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Cott reported income from continuing operations of $7.6 million or $0.11 per diluted share for the quarter ended March 30, 2002 versus $5.1 million or $0.07 per diluted share in the first quarter of 2001, extending its record into a fourth consecutive year of profitable operating performance. Net loss for the quarter, after one-time charges, was $46.8 million or $(0.76) per diluted share compared with net income of $5.1 million or $0.07 per diluted share in 2001. In the first quarter, Cott recorded two one-time charges. First, an extraordinary item of $9.6 million after tax for the costs associated with the early redemption of the 9.375% and 8.5% senior notes maturing in 2005 and 2007 ("2005 & 2007 Notes"). The 2005 & 2007 Notes were refinanced with 8% subordinated notes maturing in 2011 ("2011 Notes") in December 2001 and were redeemed on January 22, 2002. Also, as required, Cott adopted SFAS 142 in the first quarter of 2002. This change in the method of valuing goodwill resulted in the $44.8 million non-cash write down of the entire goodwill of the U.K. business. SALES - Sales were up 9.2% to $250.0 million compared to $229.0 million for the first quarter of 2001. Excluding the impact of the Royal Crown acquisition and Northeast Retailer Brand business combination which occurred in the last half of 2001, sales of $234.3 million were up 2.3% from the same period last year, lead by growth in the U.S. business. Sales volume in 8-oz equivalent cases increased 2.9%, excluding the impact of the acquisitions. Sales in the U.S. during the first quarter of 2002 increased to $187.5 million, up 11.1% from $168.7 million in 2001. The Northeast Retailer Brand business combination added $13.2 million to sales for the quarter. A significant portion of the increase in the existing business was attributable to growth in sales volume of reverse osmosis purified drinking water. Sales in Canada were $32.0 million for the quarter, down 5.6% from $33.9 million in 2001, primarily due to a weaker Canadian currency. Sales in the U.K. of $30.5 million increased 15.5% from $26.4 million in 2001. Approximately $2.5 million of the increase relates to the acquisition of the Royal Crown International business and $2.2 million relates to higher sales in the existing business, an 8.3% improvement. These increases were partially offset by the impact of the weakened U.K. pound in relation to the U.S. dollar. GROSS PROFIT - Gross profit margin for the quarter was 18.4% compared with 18.3% and 15.8% in the fourth quarter and first quarter of 2001, respectively. The improvement over last year's first quarter was principally due to gains in plant efficiencies and to the impact of the Royal Crown acquisition. This improvement was partially offset by increased interest expense on the debt incurred to finance the acquisition. SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES ("SG&A") - SG&A was $27.7 million, up $4.6 million from $23.1 million last year. The increase was due primarily to the impact of acquisitions and redundancy costs recorded in the U.K. SG&A would have been $0.9 million higher in 2002 if not for the benefit of no longer amortizing goodwill under SFAS 142. 13 INTEREST EXPENSE - Net interest expense was $9.3 million for the quarter compared with $6.7 million in the first quarter of 2001. The $2.6 million increase was primarily a result of the interest on the term loan used to finance the Royal Crown acquisition. The impact of lower interest rates from the high yield bond refinancing was not realized in the first quarter of 2002 as Cott had to pay interest on both the 2005 & 2007 Notes and the new 2011 Notes up to the January 22, 2002 redemption date. Cott expects that the interest rate improvement of approximately 1% will positively impact operations for the balance of the year. INCOME TAXES - Cott recorded an income tax provision of $1.1 million on income before tax of $8.7 million for the quarter, compared with a $3.2 million provision on income before tax of $8.3 million in the comparable period last year. The current period's income tax provision was impacted by a $1.8 million tax recovery related to realizing the benefit of a capital loss. EXTRAORDINARY ITEM - The extraordinary item of $9.6 million in the first quarter of 2002 represents the after tax costs of redeeming the 2005 & 2007 Notes. Costs include the early redemption penalty and the non-cash write-off of the unamortized financing fees. CHANGE IN ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLE - In the first quarter, as required, Cott adopted SFAS 142. Under this standard, goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives are no longer amortized but are subject to annual impairment tests based on fair values rather than net recoverable amount. An impairment test of goodwill was required upon adoption of this standard. Cott completed the impairment test of its reporting units in the first quarter under the new rules and as a consequence recorded a non-cash charge of $44.8 million to write down the entire goodwill of its U.K. business. FINANCIAL CONDITION - Cash used in operating activities for the first quarter was $15.3 million, including capital expenditures of $10.7 million and excluding the $10.6 million cash portion of early redemption costs on the 2005 & 2007 Notes. Sources of cash included $14.5 million in additional short-term borrowings and $4.7 million from common shares issued due to the exercise of employee stock options. The $297.3 million of cash in trust at December 29, 2001 was used to redeem the $276.4 million principal amount of the 2005 & 2007 Notes and pay the related accrued interest and early redemption penalties on January 22, 2002. Cash and cash equivalents increased $10.2 million in the first quarter to $14.1 million as of March 30, 2002. INVESTING ACTIVITIES - In January 2002, Cott made two spring water investments totaling $1.8 million to strengthen its position in the spring water segment across Canada. Cott acquired a 49% interest in Iroquois West Bottling Limited that will operate a spring water bottling facility in Revelstoke, British Columbia and a 30% interest in Iroquois Water Ltd., that will produce bottled water in Cornwall, Ontario. CAPITAL EXPENDITURES - Capital expenditures for the quarter were $10.7 million compared with $10.0 million in the first quarter of 2001. Cott's capital spending policy favors projects with an expected internal rate of return above 30%, in addition to those required for essential maintenance, safety and regulatory compliance. Major expenditures in the first quarter of 2002 included $4.3 million relating to the purified drinking water filling line projects in the Florida and Texas plants and $1.0 million relating to the upgrade and standardization of information and accounting systems. CAPITAL RESOURCES AND LONG-TERM DEBT - Cott's current credit facilities provide maximum credit of $89.2 million depending on available collateral. At March 31, 2001, approximately $32.7 million of the 14 committed revolving credit facility in the U.S. and Canada and the entire $14.2 million of the demand credit facility in the U.K. were available. The weighted average interest rate on outstanding borrowings under the credit facilities was 4.9%. As of March 30, 2002, Cott's long-term debt totaled $363.8 million as compared with $364.9 million at the end of 2001, adjusted for the redemption of the 2005 and 2007 Notes in January 2002. At quarter end, debt consisted of $267.6 million in 8% senior subordinated notes with a face value of $275 million, $95.4 million on the term loan and $0.8 million of other debt. Cott is exposed to interest rate risk as its term loan, which represents approximately 26% of its long-term debt at March 30, 2002, bears interest at floating rates. The weighted average interest rate on the term loan as of March 30, 2002 was 5.4%. Cott has $40.0 million in preferred shares outstanding. Effective July 7, 2002, preferred shareowners will be entitled to a cumulative preferential dividend, payable in additional stock, at a rate of 2.5% every six months, unless Cott exchanges the preferred shares for common shares. Cott anticipates converting the preferred shares to common shares on or before July 7, 2002. Management believes Cott has the financial resources to meet its ongoing cash requirements for operations and capital expenditures as well as its other financial obligations. CANADIAN GAAP - Consolidated financial statements in accordance with Canadian GAAP are made available to all shareowners and are filed with Canadian regulatory authorities. Under Canadian GAAP in the first quarter, Cott reported net income of $8.3 million and total assets of $748.1 million compared to the net loss and total assets under U.S. GAAP of $46.8 million and $746.1 million, respectively. There are two primary U.S./Canadian GAAP differences in the first quarter of 2002. Under Canadian GAAP, the 2005 & 2007 Notes were considered discharged on December 21, 2001 when the funds to redeem the notes were transferred to the irrevocable trust. As a result, debt extinguishment costs were recorded in the fourth quarter of 2001 under Canadian GAAP in results from continuing operations. Under U.S. GAAP, the 2005 & 2007 Notes were considered discharged on January 22, 2002 and the extinguishment costs of $9.6 million were recorded as an extraordinary item in the first quarter of 2002. Under Canadian GAAP, the impairment loss of $44.8 million relating to the change in the method for valuing goodwill is charged to opening retained earnings for the first quarter of 2002. Under U.S. GAAP, the change in accounting principle is recorded as a charge to net income for the quarter ended March 30, 2002. OUTLOOK - At this point, Cott expects sales to grow between 8% and 10% for 2002 and earnings per diluted share to be between $0.72 and $0.74 for the year, before the one-time charges recorded in the first quarter. Cott's ongoing focus is to increase sales, market share and profitability for Cott and its customers. The carbonated soft drink industry continues to experience positive growth, especially in the U.S. Facing intense price competition from heavily promoted global and regional brands, Cott's major opportunity for growth depends on management's emphasis on this focus and on retailers' continued commitment to their retailer brand soft drink programs. Cott continues to strive to expand the business through growth with key customers, the pursuit of new customers and channels and through new acquisitions and alliances. Additional financing may be required to fund future acquisitions, and there can be no assurance that such financing will be available on favorable terms. RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES - Risks and uncertainties include national brand pricing strategies, stability of procurement costs for such items as sweetener, packaging materials and other ingredients, the successful 15 integration of new acquisitions, seasonality of sales, the ability to protect intellectual property and fluctuations in interest rates and foreign currencies versus the U.S. dollar. Sales to the top two customers in the first quarter of 2002 accounted for 51% (47% - 2001) of Cott's total sales. The loss of any significant customer or any significant portion of Cott's sales could have a material adverse effect on the Company's operating results and cash flows. FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS - In addition to historical information, this report contains statements relating to future events and Cott's future results. These statements are "forward-looking" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and include, but are not limited to, statements that relate to projections of revenues, earnings, earnings per share, cash flows, capital expenditures or other financial items, discussions of estimated future revenue enhancements and cost savings. These statements also relate to Cott's business strategy, goals and expectations concerning its market position, future operations, margins, profitability, liquidity and capital resources. Generally, words such as "anticipate," "believe," "continue," "could," "estimate," "expect," "intend," "may," "plan," "predict," "project," "should," "will" and similar terms and phrases are used to identify forward-looking statements. Although Cott believes the assumptions underlying these forward-looking statements are reasonable, any of these assumptions could prove to be inaccurate and, as a result, the forward-looking statements based on those assumptions could be incorrect. Cott's operations involve risks and uncertainties, many of which are outside its control, and any one or a combination of which could also affect whether the forward-looking statements ultimately prove to be correct. The following, in addition to the risks and uncertainties discussed above, are some of the factors that could affect Cott's financial performance, including but not limited to sales, earnings and cash flows, or could cause actual results to differ materially from estimates contained in or underlying the forward-looking statements: o Loss of key customers, particularly Wal-Mart, and the commitment of Cott's private label beverage customers to their private label beverage programs; o Increases in competitor consolidations and other market-place competition, particularly among branded beverage products; o Cott's ability to identify and acquire acquisition candidates and to integrate into its operations the businesses and product lines that are acquired; o Fluctuations in the cost and availability of beverage ingredients and packaging supplies and Cott's ability to maintain favorable arrangements and relationships with suppliers; o Unseasonably cold or wet weather, which could reduce demand for Cott's beverages; o Cott's ability to protect the intellectual property inherent in new and existing products; o Adverse rulings, judgments or settlements in Cott's existing litigation, and the possibility that additional litigation will be brought against Cott; o Product recalls or changes in or increased enforcement of the laws and regulations that affect Cott's business; o Currency fluctuations that adversely affect the U.S. dollar exchange with the pound sterling, the Canadian dollar and other currencies; o Changes in interest rates; o Changes in consumer tastes and preference and market demand for new and existing products; o Changes in general economic and business conditions; and o Increased acts of terrorism or war. 16 The foregoing list of important factors is not exclusive or exhaustive. Many of these factors are described in greater detail in other filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. All future written and oral forward-looking statements attributable to Cott or persons acting on Cott's behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by the previous statements. These statements are made as of the date of this report. Cott undertakes no obligation to update any information contained in this report or to publicly release the results of any revisions to forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances that Cott may become aware of after the date of this report. Undue reliance should not be placed on forward-looking statements. 17 PART II - OTHER INFORMATION ITEM 1.
