CAUTIONARY STATEMENT CONCERNING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This Form 10-Q includes “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), with respect to our financial condition, results of operations and business and our expectations or beliefs concerning future events. The forward-looking statements include, in particular, statements about our plans, strategies and prospects under the heading "Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations". You can identify forward-looking statements because they contain words such as “believes,” “expects,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “would,” “could,” “seeks,” “approximately,” “intends,” “plans,” “estimates,” or “anticipates” or similar expressions that relate to our strategy, plans or intentions. All statements we make relating to our estimated and projected earnings, margins, costs, expenditures, cash flows, growth rates and financial results or to our expectations regarding future industry trends are forward-looking statements. In addition, we, through our senior management, from time to time make forward-looking public statements concerning our expected future operations and performance and other developments. These forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties that may change at any time, and, therefore, our actual results may differ materially from those that we expected. We derive many of our forward-looking statements from our operating budgets and forecasts, which are based upon many detailed assumptions. While we believe that our assumptions are reasonable, we caution that it is very difficult to predict the impact of known factors, and it is impossible for us to anticipate all factors that could affect our actual results. All forward-looking statements are based upon information available to us on the date of this Form 10-Q.

All forward-looking information and subsequent written and oral forward-looking statements attributable to us, or to persons acting on our behalf, are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statements. Some of the factors that we believe could affect our results include:

·	risks associated with our substantial indebtedness and debt service;

·	changes in prices and availability of resin and other raw materials and our ability to pass on changes in raw material prices on a timely basis;

·	performance of our business and future operating results;

·	risks related to our acquisition strategy and integration of acquired businesses;

·	reliance on unpatented know-how and trade secrets;

·	increases in the cost of compliance with laws and regulations, including environmental, safety, and production and product laws and regulations;

·	risks related to disruptions in the overall economy and the financial markets that may adversely impact our business;

·	catastrophic loss of one of our key manufacturing facilities, natural disasters, and other unplanned business interruptions;

·	risks of competition, including foreign competition, in our existing and future markets;

·	general business and economic conditions, particularly an economic downturn;

·	the ability of our insurance to cover fully our potential exposures; and

·	the other factors discussed in our Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 29, 2012 in the section titled “Risk Factors.”

We caution readers that the foregoing list of important factors may not contain all of the material factors that are important to you. In addition, in light of these risks and uncertainties, the matters referred to in the forward-looking statements contained in this Form 10-Q may not in fact occur. Accordingly, investors should not place undue reliance on those statements. We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statement as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as otherwise required by law.

Readers should carefully review the factors discussed in our Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 29, 2012 in the section titled “Risk Factors” and other risk factors identified from time to time in our periodic filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). We undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statements to reflect changes in underlying assumptions or factors, new information, future events or other changes.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited)

(tables in millions of dollars, except per share data)

1. Background

Berry Plastics Group, Inc. (“Berry” or the “Company”) is a leading provider of value-added plastic consumer packaging and engineered materials with a track record of delivering high-quality customized solutions to our customers. Representative examples of our products include thermoform drink cups, thin-wall containers, blow-molded bottles, specialty closures, prescription vials, specialty plastic films, adhesives and corrosion protection materials. We sell our solutions predominantly into consumer-oriented end-markets, such as food and beverage, healthcare and personal care.

2. Basis of Presentation

Berry, through its wholly-owned subsidiaries operates in four primary segments: Rigid Open Top, Rigid Closed Top, Engineered Materials, and Flexible Packaging. The Company’s customers are located principally throughout the United States, without significant concentration in any one region or with any one customer. The accompanying unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission for interim reporting. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full fiscal year. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company’s Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission for the fiscal year end September 29, 2012. All intercompany transactions have been eliminated. The Company issued financial statements by filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission and has evaluated subsequent events up to the time of the filing.

Reclassification Adjustments

Certain amounts in the prior year financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation. The Company historically presented Other operating expenses in its Consolidated Statements of Operations, which consisted predominately of business optimization costs and management fees to affiliates of Apollo and Graham. The Company has eliminated separate presentation of Other operating expenses from its Consolidated Statements of Operations to better align with the way the Company is reviewing its operating results. For the quarterly periods and three quarterly periods ended June 29, 2013 and June 30, 2012 business optimization costs were $2 million and $7 million and $13 million and $27 million, respectively and are included in Cost of goods sold. The Company recorded management fees of $2 million and $7 million for the quarterly period and three quarterly periods ended June 30, 2012, respectively and are included in Selling, general and administrative expense. The Company’s management fee agreement with Apollo and other investors terminated upon completion of the initial public offering.

Initial Public Offering

In October 2012, the Company filed an initial public offering and sold 29,411,764 shares of common stock at $16.00 per share. In conjunction with the initial public offering the Company executed a 12.25 for one stock split of the Company’s common stock. The effect of the stock split on outstanding shares and earnings per share has been retroactively applied to all periods presented. Transaction fees totaling $33 million were included in Paid-in capital on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Proceeds, net of transaction fees, of $438 million and cash from operations were used to repurchase $455 million of 11% Senior Subordinated Notes due September 2016. As part of the repurchase the Company paid premiums of $13 million and wrote-off $3 million of deferred financing fees.

Secondary Public Offering

In April 2013, we completed a secondary public offering in which certain funds affiliated with Apollo and Graham sold 18,975,000 shares of common stock at $17.00 per share, which included 2,475,000 shares purchased by the underwriters upon the exercise in full of their option to purchase additional shares. The selling stockholders received proceeds from the offering, which, net of underwriting fees, totaled $311 million. The Company received no proceeds and incurred fees of $1 million related to this offering.

-9-

Tax Receivable Agreement

In connection with the initial public offering, the Company entered into an income tax receivable agreement ("TRA") that provides for the payment to pre-initial public offering stockholders, option holders and holders of our stock appreciation rights, 85% of the amount of cash savings, if any, in U.S. federal, foreign, state and local income tax that are actually realized (or are deemed to be realized in the case of a change of control) as a result of the utilization of our and our subsidiaries’ net operating losses attributable to periods prior to the initial public offering. The Company expects to pay between $300 million and $350 million in cash related to this agreement. This range is based on the Company's assumptions using various items, including valuation analysis and current tax law. Upon the effective date of the TRA, the Company recorded an initial obligation of $300 million which is recognized as a reduction of Paid-in capital on the Consolidated Balance Sheet as of June 29, 2013. Changes in the recorded net deferred income tax assets will result in changes in the TRA obligation, and such changes will be recorded as Other expense (income) in the Consolidated Statement of Operations. Payments under the TRA are not conditioned upon the parties' continued ownership of the Company.

Redeemable Common Stock

As of September 29, 2012, the Company had entered into agreements with former employees that required the Company to redeem this common stock at pre-determined dates. Historical redemption of this stock was based on the fair value of the stock on the fixed redemption date. This redeemable common stock was recorded at its fair value in temporary equity and changes in the fair value were recorded in additional paid in capital each period. Upon completion of the initial public offering, the redemption requirement terminated resulting in the Company reclassifying the shares into equity on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Other Related Party Transactions

The Company recorded management fees of $2 million and $7 million for the quarterly period and three quarterly periods ended June 30, 2012, respectively, charged by Apollo and other investors to the Company. The Company’s management fee agreement with Apollo and other investors terminated upon completion of the initial public offering.

BP Parallel LLC, a non-guarantor subsidiary of the Company, invested $21 million to purchase assignments of $21 million of unsecured term loan during the quarter ended December 29, 2012. Of the $21 million assignments purchased, $14 million were purchased from third parties affiliated with Apollo.

In connection with our initial public offering in October 2012, the Company paid a $1 million underwriting fee to Apollo Global Securities, LLC, an affiliate of Apollo that served as a manager of the offering.

In connection with the incremental term loan Berry Plastics Corporation entered into in February 2013, the Company paid a $1 million underwriting fee to Apollo Global Securities, LLC, an affiliate of Apollo that served as a manager of the offering.

In connection with our April 2013 secondary public offering in which certain funds affiliated with Apollo and Graham sold 18,975,000 shares of common stock at $17.00 per share, which included 2,475,000 shares purchased by the underwriters upon the exercise in full of their option to purchase additional shares, the selling stockholders paid a $0.5 million underwriting fee to Apollo Global Securities, LLC, an affiliate of Apollo that served as a manager of the offering, reflecting its pro rata portion of the aggregate underwriting fee.

3. Acquisitions

Stopaq®

In June 2012, the Company acquired 100% of the shares of Frans Nooren Beheer B.V. and its operating companies (“Stopaq”) for a purchase price of $65 million ($62 million, net of cash acquired). Stopaq is the inventor and manufacturer of patented visco-elastic technologies for use in corrosion prevention, sealing and insulation applications ranging from pipelines to subsea piles to rail and cable joints.

The Company’s senior secured credit facilities consist of $2.5 billion term loan and $650 million asset based revolving line of credit. The availability under the revolving line of credit is the lesser of $650 million or based on a defined borrowing base which is calculated based on available accounts receivable and inventory. The revolving line of credit allows up to $130 million of letters of credit to be issued instead of borrowings under the revolving line of credit. At June 29, 2013, the Company had no outstanding balance on the revolving credit facility, $43 million outstanding letters of credit and a $68 million borrowing base reserve providing unused borrowing capacity of $539 million under the revolving line of credit. The Company was in compliance with all covenants as of June 29, 2013.

In October 2012, the Company filed an initial public offering and sold 29,411,764 shares of common stock at $16.00 per share. Proceeds, net of transaction fees, of $438 million and cash from operations were used to repurchase $455 million of 11% Senior Subordinated Notes. The Company recognized a $16 million loss on extinguishment of debt related to this debt retirement.

In December 2012, BP Parallel LLC, invested $21 million to purchase assignments at then-prevailing market prices of $21 million of principal of the Senior Unsecured Term Loan.

In February 2013, the Company entered into an incremental assumption agreement to increase the commitments under Berry Plastics Corporation’s existing term loan credit agreement by $1.4 billion. Berry Plastics Corporation borrowed loans in an aggregate principal amount equal to the full amount of the commitments on such date. The incremental term loans bear interest at LIBOR plus 2.50% per annum with a LIBOR floor of 1.00%, mature in February 2020 and are subject to customary amortization. The proceeds from the incremental term loan, in addition to borrowings under the revolving credit facility, were used to (a) satisfy and discharge all of Berry Plastics Corporation’s outstanding (i) Second Priority Senior Secured Floating Rate Notes due 2014, (ii) First Priority Senior Secured Floating Rate Notes due 2015, (iii) 101⁄4% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2016 and (iv) 81⁄4% First Priority Senior Secured Notes due 2015, which, in each case, were called for redemption in February 2013 and the related indentures and (b) pay related fees and expenses. The Company recognized a $48 million loss on extinguishment of debt related to this debt restructuring.

7. Financial Instruments and Fair Value Measurements

As part of the overall risk management, the Company uses derivative instruments to reduce exposure to changes in interest rates attributed to the Company’s floating-rate borrowings. For those derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as hedging instruments, the Company must designate the hedging instrument, based upon the exposure being hedged, as a fair value hedge, cash flow hedge, or a hedge of a net investment in a foreign operation. To the extent hedging relationships are found to be effective, as determined by FASB guidance, changes in fair value of the derivatives are offset by changes in the fair value of the related hedged item are recorded to Accumulated other comprehensive loss. Management believes hedge effectiveness is evaluated properly in preparation of the financial statements.

Cash Flow Hedging Strategy

For derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges, the effective portion of the gain or loss on the derivative instrument is reported as a component of Accumulated other comprehensive loss and reclassified into earnings in the same line item associated with the forecasted transaction and in the same period or periods during which the hedged transaction affects earnings.

In November 2010, the Company entered into two separate interest rate swap transactions to manage cash flow variability associated with $1 billion of the outstanding variable rate term loan debt (the “2010 Swaps”). The first agreement had a notional amount of $500 million and became effective in November 2010. The agreement swaps three month variable LIBOR contracts for a fixed three year rate of 0.8925% and expires in November 2013. The second agreement had a notional amount of $500 million and became effective in December 2010. The agreement swaps three month variable LIBOR contracts for a fixed three year rate of 1.0235% and expires in November 2013. In August 2011, the Company began utilizing 1-month LIBOR contracts for the underlying senior secured credit facility. The Company’s change in interest rate selection caused the Company to lose hedge accounting on both of the interest rate swaps. The Company recorded subsequent changes in fair value in the Consolidated Statement of Operations and will amortize the unrealized losses to Interest expense through the end of the respective swap agreements.

In February 2013, the Company entered into an interest rate swap transaction to manage cash flow variability associated with $1 billion of outstanding variable rate term loan debt (the "2013 Swaps"). The agreement swaps the greater of a three-month variable LIBOR contract or 1.00% for a fixed three-year rate of 2.355%, with an effective date in May 2016 and expiration in May 2019. In June 2013, the Company elected to settle this derivative instrument and received $16 million as a result of this settlement. The offset is included in Accumulated other comprehensive loss and will be amortized to Interest expense from May 2016 through May 2019, the original term of the swap agreement.

The Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures section of the Accounting Standards Codification (“Codification” or “ASC”) 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, and establishes a framework for measuring fair value. This section also establishes a three-level hierarchy (Level 1, 2 or 3) for fair value measurements based upon the observability of inputs to the valuation of an asset or liability as of the measurement date. This section also requires the consideration of the counterparty’s or the Company’s nonperformance risk when assessing fair value.

The Company’s interest rate swap fair values were determined using Level 2 inputs as other significant observable inputs were not available.

The Company’s financial instruments consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, long-term debt, interest rate swap agreements and capital lease obligations. The fair value of the Company’s long-term debt was determined using Level 2 inputs, which include using quoted prices in inactive markets or significant other observable inputs for identical or comparable assets or liabilities. The following table summarizes our long-term indebtedness for which the book value was in excess of the fair value:

	June 29, 2013		September 29, 2012
Second Priority Senior Secured Floating Rate Notes	$	—	$	1
Senior Unsecured Term Loan		—		6

Non-recurring Fair Value Measurements

The Company has certain assets that are measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis when impairment indicators are present. The assets are adjusted to fair value only when the carrying values exceed the fair values. The categorization of the framework used to price the assets is considered a Level 3, due to the subjective nature of the unobservable inputs used to determine the fair value. These assets include primarily our definite lived and indefinite lived intangible assets, including Goodwill and our property plant and equipment. The Company conducted our annual step one evaluation of goodwill and other intangibles as of the first date of the fourth quarter and preliminarily determined no impairment existed for any of our reporting units. The Company has experienced volume declines in certain of our reporting units, however our cost reduction initiatives and profitability in these reporting units have been consistent with our estimated operating plan and previous cash flow estimates and we believe that our long term forecasts are still appropriate. We have utilized a consistent methodology with prior years, which leverages a six year discounted cash flow analysis with a terminal year in combination with a comparable company market approach to determine the fair value of our reporting units.

Included in the following table are the major categories of assets measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis as of June 29, 2013 and June 30, 2012, along with the impairment loss recognized on the fair value measurement during the period:

Valuation of Property, Plant and Equipment and Definite Lived Intangible Assets

The Company periodically realigns their manufacturing operations which results in facilities being closed and shut down and equipment transferred to other facilities or equipment being scrapped. The Company utilizes appraised values to corroborate the fair value of the facilities and has utilized a scrap value based on prior facility shut downs to estimate the fair value of the equipment, which has approximated the actual value that was received. When impairment indicators exist, the Company will also perform an undiscounted cash flow analysis to determine the recoverability of the Company’s property, plant and equipment and definite lived intangibles.

8. Income Taxes

The effective tax rate was 38% and 26% for the three quarterly periods ended June 29, 2013 and June 30, 2012, respectively. A reconciliation of income tax benefit, computed at the federal statutory rate, to income tax benefit, as provided for in the financial statements, is as follows:

	Quarterly Period Ended					Three Quarterly Periods Ended

11. Contingencies and Commitments

The Company is party to various legal proceedings involving routine claims which are incidental to the business. Although the legal and financial liability with respect to such proceedings cannot be estimated with certainty, the Company believes that any ultimate liability would not be material to the business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.

12. Basic and Diluted Net Income (Loss) per Share

Basic net income or loss per share is calculated by dividing the net income or loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period, without consideration for common stock equivalents. Diluted net income or loss per share is computed by dividing the net income or loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common share equivalents outstanding for the

-20-

period determined using the treasury-stock method and the if-converted method. For purposes of this calculation, stock options are considered to be common stock equivalents and are only included in the calculation of diluted net income or loss per share when their effect is dilutive. The Company’s redeemable common stock is included in the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for calculating basic and diluted net income or loss per share.

The following tables and discussion provide a reconciliation of the numerator and denominator of the basic and diluted net loss per share computations. The calculation below provides net income or loss on both basic and diluted basis for the quarterly period ended June 29, 2013 and June 30, 2012.

	Quarterly Period Ended				Three Quarterly Periods Ended
	June 29, 2013		June 30, 2012		June 29, 2013		June 30, 2012

Net income (loss)	$	40	$	9	$	31	$	(20	)
Weighted average shares of common stock outstanding--basic (in thousands)		114,132		83,190		112,839		83,508
Weighted average shares of common stock outstanding		114,132		83,190		112,839		83,508
Other common stock equivalents (in thousands)		6,419		2,281		5,869		—
Weighted average shares of common stock outstanding--diluted (in thousands)		120,551		85,471		118,708		83,508


Basic net income (loss) per share	$	0.35	$	0.11	$	0.27	$	(0.24	)
Diluted net income (loss) per share	$	0.33	$	0.11	$	0.26	$	(0.24	)

The conversion of stock options is not included in the calculation of diluted net loss per common share for the three quarterly periods ended June 30, 2012 as the effect of these conversions would be antidilutive to the net loss available to common shareholders. Thus, the weighted average common equivalent shares used for purposes of computing diluted EPS are the same as those used to compute basic EPS for these periods. Shares excluded from the calculation as the effect of their conversion into shares of our common stock would be antidilutive were 10,684,156 as of June 30, 2012.

13. Subsequent Event

In August 2013, the Company made certain modifications to the Berry Plastics Group Inc. 2006 Equity Incentive Plan and the Berry Plastics Group, Inc. 2012 Long-Term Incentive Plan (collectively, the "Plans"), and amended outstanding non-qualified stock option agreements to reflect such modifications. The modifications, which were in-line with market practices of similar sized public companies, include (i) accelerated vesting of all unvested options upon an employee's death or permanent disability (ii) in the event of an employee's qualified retirement, continuation of the normal vesting period applicable to the retiree's unvested options, as well as an extension of the exercise period to the end of the original ten-year term of the retiree's vested options and (iii) all unvested options and stock appreciation rights that were subject to performance-based vesting criteria as of January 1, 2013 (excluding certain IRR performance based options) were modified to time-based vesting.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and

Results of Operations

Unless the context requires otherwise, references in this Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations to the “Company” refer to Berry Plastics Group, Inc, and references to “we,” “our” or “us” refer to Berry Plastics Group, Inc. together with its consolidated subsidiaries, after giving effect to the transactions described in the next paragraph. You should read the following discussion in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries and the accompanying notes thereto, which information is included elsewhere herein. This discussion contains forward-looking statements and involves numerous risks and uncertainties, including, but not limited to, those described in our Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 29, 2012 in the section titled “Risk Factors” and other risk factors identified from time to time in our periodic filings with the SEC. Our actual results may differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements. You should read the explanation of the qualifications and limitations on these forward-looking statements referenced within this report.

Acquisitions

We have a long history of acquiring and integrating companies. We maintain an opportunistic acquisition strategy, which is focused on improving our long-term financial performance, enhancing our market positions and expanding our product lines or, in some cases, providing us with a new or complementary product line. In our acquisitions, we seek to obtain businesses for attractive post-synergy multiples, creating value for our stockholders from synergy realization, leveraging the acquired products across our customer base, creating new platforms for future growth, and assuming best practices from the businesses we acquire.

The Company has included the expected benefits of acquisition integrations within our unrealized synergies, which are in turn recognized in earnings after an acquisition has been fully integrated. While the expected benefits on earnings is estimated at the commencement of each transaction, once the execution of the plan and integration occur, we are generally unable to accurately estimate or track what the ultimate effects have been due to system integrations and movements of activities to multiple facilities. As historical business combinations have not allowed us to accurately separate realized synergies compared to what was initially identified, we measure the synergy realization based on the overall segment profitability post integration. In connection with our acquisitions, we have in the past and may in the future incur charges related to reductions and rationalizations.

We also include the expected impact of our restructuring plans within our unrealized synergies which are in turn recognized in earnings after the restructuring plans are completed. While the expected benefits on earnings is estimated at the commencement of each plan, due to the nature of the matters we are generally unable to accurately estimate or track what the ultimate effects have been due to movements of activities to multiple facilities.

been accounted for under the purchase method of accounting, and accordingly, the preliminary purchase price has been allocated to the identifiable assets and liabilities based on estimated fair values at the acquisition date. The Company has not finalized the purchase price allocation. The Company has recognized goodwill on this transaction as a result of expected synergies. A portion of the goodwill will not be deductible for tax purposes.

Recent Developments

Initial Public Offering

Tax Receivable Agreement

Redeemable Common Stock

BP Parallel Investments

In December 2012, BP Parallel LLC, a non-guarantor subsidiary of the Company, invested $21 million to purchase assignments of $21 million of our senior unsecured term loan during the quarter ended December 29, 2012. The purchase did not result in a gain or loss.

Incremental Term Loan

In February 2013, the Company entered into an incremental assumption agreement to increase the commitments under Berry Plastics Corporation’s existing term loan credit agreement by $1.4 billion. Berry Plastics Corporation borrowed loans in an aggregate principal amount equal to the full amount of the commitments on such date. The incremental term loans bear interest at LIBOR plus 2.50% per annum with a LIBOR floor of 1.00%, matures in February 2020 and are subject to customary amortization. The proceeds from the incremental term loan, in addition to borrowings under the revolving credit facility, were used to (a) satisfy and discharge all of Berry Plastics Corporation’s outstanding (i) Second Priority Senior Secured Floating Rate Notes due 2014, (ii) First Priority Senior Secured Floating Rate Notes due 2015, (iii) 101⁄4% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2016 and (iv) 81⁄4% First Priority Senior Secured Notes due 2015, which, in each case, were called for redemption in February 2013 and the related indentures and (b) pay related fees and expenses. The Company recognized a $48 million loss on extinguishment of debt related to this debt refinancing.

Interest Rate Swap

In February 2013, the company entered into an interest rate swap transaction to protect $1 billion of outstanding variable rate term loan debt from future interest rate volatility. The agreement swaps the greater of a three-month variable

-23-

LIBOR contract or 1.00% for a fixed three-year rate of 2.355%, with an effective date in May 2016 and expiration in May 2019. In June 2013, the company elected to settle this derivative instrument and received $16 million as a result of this settlement. The offset is included in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss and will be amortized to Interest expense from May 2016 through May 2019, the original term of the swap agreement.

Secondary Public Offerings

In July 2013, we completed a secondary public offering in which certain funds affiliated with Apollo and Graham sold 17,250,000 shares of common stock at $21.63 per share, which included 2,250,000 shares purchased by the underwriters upon the exercise in full of their option to purchase additional shares. The selling stockholders received proceeds from the offering, which, net of underwriting fees, totaled $360 million. The Company received no proceeds and incurred fees of $1 million related to this offering.

Executive Summary

Business. We operate in the following four segments: Rigid Open Top, Rigid Closed Top (together our Rigid Packaging business), Engineered Materials, and Flexible Packaging. The Rigid Packaging business sells primarily containers, foodservice items, closures, overcaps, bottles, prescription containers, and tubes. Our Engineered Materials segment sells primarily specialty tapes, adhesives, pipeline corrosive protection solutions, polyethylene based film products, and waste bags. The Flexible Packaging segment sells primarily high barrier, multilayer film products as well as printed bags and pouches.

Raw Material Trends. Our primary raw material is plastic resin. Polypropylene and polyethylene account for approximately 90% of our plastic resin purchases based on the pounds purchased. Plastic resins are subject to price fluctuations, including those arising from supply shortages and changes in the prices of natural gas, crude oil and other petrochemical intermediates from which resins are produced. The average industry prices, as published in Chem Data, per pound were as follows by fiscal year:

	Polyethylene Butene Film						Polypropylene
	2013		2012		2011		2013		2012		2011
1st quarter	$	.69	$	.70	$	.68	$	.76	$	.79	$	.78
2nd quarter	$	.74		.76		.72	$	.96		.88		.95
3rd quarter	$	.77		.72		.79	$	.84		.85		1.08
4th quarter		—		.68		.73		—		.71		.98

Due to differences in the timing of passing through resin cost changes to our customers on escalator/de-escalator programs, segments are negatively impacted in the short term when plastic resin costs increase and are positively impacted when plastic resin costs decrease. This timing lag in passing through raw material cost changes could affect our results as plastic resin costs fluctuate.

Outlook. The Company is impacted by general economic and industrial growth, plastic resin availability and affordability, and general industrial production. Our business has both geographic and end market diversity, which reduces the effect of any one of these factors on our overall performance. Our results are affected by our ability to pass through raw material cost changes to our customers, improve manufacturing productivity and adapt to volume changes of our customers. We seek to improve our overall profitability by implementing cost reduction programs for our manufacturing, selling and general and administrative expenses. Looking forward to the fourth fiscal quarter of 2013, we believe the demand driven by economic activity will remain similar to the environment we have experienced in the past four quarters. Taking this into account for our September 2013 quarter, and assuming that volumes improve as we are beginning to see warmer weather, we anticipate an improvement in profitability, as defined as adjusted EBITDA less pro forma adjustments, versus the prior year.

Results of Operations

Comparison of the Quarterly Period Ended June 29, 2013 (the “Quarter”) and the Quarterly Period Ended June 30, 2012 (the “Prior Quarter”)

Net Sales . Net sales decreased from $1,242 million in the Prior Quarter to $1,221 million in the Quarter. This decrease is primarily attributed to a volume decline of 2% related to soft customer demand, year-over-year adverse change in weather and reduction in raw material content partially offset by volume gains in certain of our product lines. The following discussion in this section provides a comparison of net sales by business segment.

	Quarterly Period Ended
	June 29, 2013		June 30, 2012		$ Change			% Change
Net sales:
Rigid Open Top	$	312	$	329	$	(17	)		(5	%)
Rigid Closed Top		370		374		(4	)		(1	%)

Flexible Packaging		188		194		(6	)		(3	%)
Total net sales	$	1,221	$	1,242	$	(21	)		(2	%)

Net sales in the Rigid Open Top business decreased from $329 million in the Prior Quarter to $312 million in the Quarter as a result of a volume decline of 2% and product realignment of 4% partially offset by net selling price increases of 1%. The volume decline is primarily attributed to the year-over-year adverse change in weather discussed above. Net sales in the Rigid Closed Top business decreased from $374 million in the Prior Quarter to $370 million in the Quarter as a result of net selling price decreases of 2% partially offset by volume improvement of 1%. The Engineered Materials business net sales increased from $345 million in the Prior Quarter to $351 million in the Quarter as a result of net selling price increases of 1%, product realignment of 4% and acquisition volume related to Stopaq partially offset by a volume decline of 5%. The Engineered Material volume decline was primarily attributed to soft customer demand discussed above partially offset by volume gains in our stretch and custom films products. The Flexible Packaging business net sales decreased from $194 million in the Prior Quarter to $188 million in the Quarter as a result of a volume decline of 4% and net selling price decreases of 1% partially offset by acquisition volume attributed to Prime Label. The Flexible Packaging volume decline was primarily attributed to the soft customer demand discussed above partially offset by volume gains in our personal care products.

Operating Income. Operating income increased from $98 million (8% of net sales) in the Prior Quarter to $117 million (10% of net sales) in the Quarter. This increase is primarily attributed to $13 million from the relationship of net selling price to raw material costs, $1 million decrease in depreciation expense, $2 million decrease in amortization expense, $8 million decrease in business integration, $2 million gain from acquisitions and $1 million of decreased selling, general and administrative expenses partially offset by $4 million decline in manufacturing efficiencies and $4 million from volume declines described above. The following discussion in this section provides a comparison of operating income by business segment

	Quarterly Period Ended
	June 29, 2013		June 30, 2012		$ Change			% Change

Flexible Packaging		8		3		5			167	%
Total operating income	$	117	$	98	$	19			19	%

Operating income for the Rigid Open Top business decreased from $42 million (13% of net sales) in the Prior Quarter to $35 million (11% of net sales) in the Quarter. This decrease is primarily attributed to $2 million from volume declines described above, $4 million decline in operating performance in manufacturing, $2 million increase of selling, general and administrative expenses, $2 million increase in business integration expense and $1 million increase in depreciation and amortization expense partially offset by $4 million improvement in the relationship of net selling price to raw material costs. Operating income for the Rigid Closed Top business increased from $28 million (8% of net sales) in the Prior Quarter to $43 million (12% of net sales) in the Quarter. This increase is primarily attributed to an $8 million decline in business integration expenses, $3 million improvement in the relationship of net selling price to raw

-25-

material costs, $1 million from improved volumes described above, $2 million decline in selling, general and administrative expenses and $1 decline in depreciation and amortization expense. Operating income for the Engineered Materials business improved from $25 million (7% of net sales) in the Prior Quarter to $31 million (9% of net sales) in the Quarter. This increase is primarily attributed to $4 million improvement in the relationship of net selling price to raw material costs, $1 million decline in selling, general and administrative expenses, $2 million gain from acquisitions and $1 million decline in business integration costs partially offset by $2 million from volume declines described above. Operating income for the Flexible Packaging business improved from $3 million (2% of net sales) in the Prior Quarter to $8 million (4% of net sales) in the Quarter. This improvement is primarily attributed to a $1 million reduction of business integration expense, $3 million reduction of depreciation and amortization expense and $2 million improvement in the relationship of net selling price to raw material costs partially offset by $1 million from volume declines described above.

Other Expense (Income). Other expense (income) improved by $2 million of income in the Quarter primarily due to the change in the fair value of derivative instruments.

Interest Expense. Interest expense decreased from $82 million in the Prior Quarter to $57 million in the Quarter primarily as the result of the various debt extinguishments that resulted from our incremental term loan capital restructuring and the use of proceeds from our initial public offering.

Income Tax Expense. For the Quarter, we recorded an income tax expense of $22 million compared to $7 million in the Prior Quarter. The effective tax rate for the Quarter is impacted by the relative impact of discrete items and certain international entities for which a full valuation allowance is recognized.

Comparison of the Three Quarterly Periods Ended June 29, 2013 (the “YTD”) and the Three Quarterly Periods Ended June 30, 2012 (the “Prior YTD”)

Net Sales . Net sales decreased from $3,562 million in the Prior YTD to $3,443 million in the YTD. This decrease is primarily attributed to lower selling prices of 2% and a volume decline of 2% related to soft customer demand, year-over-year adverse change in weather and reductions in raw material content partially offset by acquisition volume related to Stopaq and Prime Label and volume gains in certain of our product lines. The following discussion in this section provides a comparison of net sales by business segment.

Net sales in the Rigid Open Top business decreased from $912 million in the Prior YTD to $828 million in the YTD as a result of net selling price decreases of 4%, a volume decline of 2% and product realignment of 3%. The volume decline is primarily attributed to the year-over-year adverse change in weather discussed above. Net sales in the Rigid Closed Top business decreased from $1,085 million in the Prior YTD to $1,036 million in the YTD as a result of net selling price decreases of 3% and a volume decline of 2%. The volume decline is primarily attributed to general market softness and a reduction in raw material content discussed above. The Engineered Materials business net sales increased from $1,010 million in the Prior YTD to $1,030 million in the YTD. The Engineered Material product realignment of 3% and acquisition volume related to Stopaq were partially offset by 2% volume declines attributed to factors discussed above. Net sales in the Flexible Packaging business decreased from $555 million in the Prior YTD to $549 million in the YTD as a result of a 2% volume decline attributed to factors discussed above partially offset by acquisition volume related to our Prime Label acquisition.

Operating Income. Operating income increased from $218 million (6% of net sales) in the Prior YTD to $296 million (9% of net sales) in the YTD. This increase is primarily attributed to $23 million from the relationship of net selling price to raw material costs, $6 million decrease in depreciation expense, $5 million decrease in amortization expense, $30 million decrease in business integration, $3 million of improved manufacturing efficiencies, $3 million from acquisitions and a non-cash impairment charge of $17 million in the Prior YTD partially offset by $9 million from volume declines described above.

Operating income for the Engineered Materials business improved from $48 million (5% of net sales) in the Prior YTD to $88 million (9% of net sales) in the YTD.

Operating loss for the Flexible Packaging business improved from $1 million loss (0% of net sales) in the Prior YTD to operating income of $16 million (3% of net sales) in the YTD. This improvement is primarily attributed to a $9 million reduction of business integration expense, $6 million reduction of depreciation and amortization expense, $1 million from acquisitions and a $4 million improvement in the relationship of net selling price to raw material costs partially offset by $2 million increase of selling, general and administrative expenses and $1 million from volume declines described above.

Debt Extinguishment. Debt extinguishment was $64 million during the YTD as a result of loss on extinguishment of debt attributed to $37 million of call premium and penalties, $19 million of deferred financing fees and $8 million of debt discount related to the debt extinguishment that resulted from our incremental term loan capital restructuring and the use of the proceeds from our initial public offering.

Other Income. Other income increased from $1 million in the Prior YTD to $6 million in the YTD. The change is primarily related to the change in the fair value of derivative instruments.

Interest Expense. Interest expense decreased from $247 million in the Prior YTD to $188 million in the YTD primarily as the result of the interest savings that resulted from our incremental term loan capital restructure and initial public offering.

Income Tax Expense. For the YTD, we recorded an income tax expense of $19 million or an effective tax rate of 38% compared to an income tax benefit of $8 million or an effective tax rate of 26% in the Prior YTD. The effective tax rate for the YTD is impacted by the relative impact of discrete items and certain international entities for which a full valuation allowance is recognized.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Senior Secured Credit Facility

The Company’s senior secured credit facilities consist of $2.5 billion term loan and $650 million asset based revolving line of credit (“Credit Facility”). $1.1 billion of the term loan matures in April 2015, $1.4 billion of the term loan matures in February 2020 and the revolving line of credit matures in June 2016, subject to certain conditions. The availability under the revolving line of credit is the lesser of $650 million or based on a defined borrowing base which is calculated based on available accounts receivable and inventory. The revolving line of credit allows up to $130 million of letters of credit to be issued instead of borrowings under the revolving line of credit. At June 29, 2013, the Company had no outstanding balance on the revolving credit facility, $43 million outstanding letters of credit and a $68 million borrowing base reserve providing unused borrowing capacity of $539 million under the revolving line of credit. The Company was in compliance with all covenants as of June 29, 2013.

-27-

Our fixed charge coverage ratio, as defined in the revolving credit facility, is calculated based on a numerator consisting of adjusted EBITDA less pro forma adjustments, income taxes paid in cash and capital expenditures, and a denominator consisting of scheduled principal payments in respect of indebtedness for borrowed money, interest expense and certain distributions. We are obligated to sustain a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio of 1.0 to 1.0 under the revolving credit facility at any time when the aggregate unused capacity under the revolving credit facility is less than 10% of the lesser of the revolving credit facility commitments and the borrowing base (and for 10 business days following the date upon which availability exceeds such threshold) or during the continuation of an event of default. At June 29, 2013, the Company had unused borrowing capacity of $539 million under the revolving credit facility and thus was not subject to the minimum fixed charge coverage ratio covenant. Our fixed charge ratio was 1.9 to 1.0 at June 29, 2013.

Despite not having financial maintenance covenants, our debt agreements contain certain negative covenants. The failure to comply with these negative covenants could restrict our ability to incur additional indebtedness, effect acquisitions, enter into certain significant business combinations, make distributions or redeem indebtedness. The term loan facility contains a negative covenant first lien secured leverage ratio covenant of 4.0 to 1.0 on a pro forma basis for a proposed transaction, such as an acquisition or incurrence of additional first lien debt. Our first lien secured leverage ratio was 3.2 to 1.0 at June 29, 2013.

A key financial metric utilized in the calculation of the first lien leverage ratio is Adjusted EBITDA as defined in the Company’s senior secured credit facilities. The following table reconciles our Adjusted EBITDA for the four quarters and quarterly period ended June 29, 2013 to net income:

	June 29, 2013
	Four Quarters Ended			Quarterly Period Ended
Adjusted EBITDA	$	811		$	209
Net interest expense		(269	)		(57	)
Depreciation and amortization		(351	)		(86	)
Income tax expense		(28	)		(22	)
Business optimization and other expense		(19	)		(2	)
Restructuring and impairment		(8	)		(1	)
Extinguishment of debt		(64	)		-
Pro forma acquisitions		(4	)		-
Unrealized cost savings		(14	)		(1	)
Net income	$	54		$	40

Cash flow from operating activities	$	498		$	132
Net additions to property, plant, and equipment		(216	)		(69	)
Adjusted free cash flow	$	282		$	63
Cash flow from investing activities		(240	)		(73	)
Cash flow from financing activities		(271	)		(49	)

While the determination of appropriate adjustments in the calculation of Adjusted EBITDA is subject to interpretation under the terms of the Credit Facility, management believes the adjustments described above are in accordance with the covenants in the Credit Facility. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered in isolation or construed as an alternative to our net income (loss) or other measures as determined in accordance with GAAP. In addition, other companies in our industry or across different industries may calculate bank covenants and related definitions differently than we do, limiting the usefulness of our calculation of Adjusted EBITDA as a comparative measure.

Tax Receivable Agreement

The Company expects to pay between $300 million and $350 million in related to the TRA over the next five years with $52 million projected to be paid during the next twelve months. The payment range is based on the Company's assumptions using various items, including valuation analysis and current tax law. Payments under the TRA are not conditioned upon the parties' continued ownership of the Company. The Company had made $5 million of payments related to the TRA as of June 29, 2013.

Contractual Obligations and Off Balance Sheet Transactions

Our contractual cash obligations at the end of fiscal 2012, giving effect to our initial public offering in October 2012 and the debt restructuring we completed in February 2013, are summarized in the following table.

	Payments due by period as of the end of fiscal 2012
	Total		< 1 year		1-3 years		4-5 years		> 5 years
Long-term debt, excluding capital leases	$	3,964	$	23	$	1,189	$	115	$	2,637

(a)	Includes anticipated interest of $17 over the life of the capital leases.

(b)	Includes variable rate debt subject to interest rate swap agreements.

(c)	Based on applicable interest rates in effect end of fiscal 2012.

(d)

Pension and other postretirement contributions have been included in the above table for the next year. The amount is the estimated contributions to our defined benefit plans. The assumptions used by the actuary in calculating the projection includes weighted average return on pension assets of approximately 8% for 2012. The estimation may vary based on the actual return on our plan assets. See Note 9 to the Consolidated or Combined Financial Statements in our prospectus filed on April 16, 2013 for more information on these obligations.

Cash Flows

Net cash provided by operating activities increased from $278 million in the Prior YTD to $297 million in the YTD. The change is primarily attributed to improved operating performance and the sale of an interest rate hedge partially offset by additional working capital due to higher raw material costs.

Net cash used in investing activities decreased from $213 million in the Prior YTD to $198 million in the YTD primarily as a result of a decline in acquisition activity partially offset by increased capital expenditures. Our capital expenditures are forecasted at $230 million for fiscal 2013 and will be funded from cash flows from operating activities and existing liquidity.

Net cash used in financing activities was $68 million in the Prior YTD compared to $160 million in the YTD. The YTD change is primarily attributed to proceeds we raised in our initial public offering and incremental term loan capital restructure, which we utilized to repurchase the 11% Senior Subordinated Notes, Second Priority Senior Secured Floating Rate Notes, First Priority Senior Secured Floating Rate Notes, 101⁄4% Senior Subordinated and 81⁄4% First Priority Senior Secured Notes.

Based on our current level of operations, we believe that cash flow from operations and available cash, together with available borrowings under our senior secured credit facilities, will be adequate to meet our short-term liquidity needs over the next twelve months. We base such belief on historical experience and the funds available under the revolving credit facility. However, we cannot predict our future results of operations and our ability to meet our obligations involves numerous risks and uncertainties, including, but not limited to, those described in the “Risk Factors” section of our Form 10-K filed with the SEC for the fiscal year ended September 29, 2012. In particular, increases in the cost of resin which we are unable to pass through to our customers on a timely basis or significant acquisitions could severely impact our liquidity.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

Interest Rate Sensitivity

We are exposed to market risk from changes in interest rates primarily through our senior secured credit facilities, senior secured first priority notes and second priority senior secured notes. Our senior secured credit facilities are comprised of (i) a $2.6 billion term loan and (ii) a $650 million revolving credit facility. At June 29, 2013, the Company had no outstanding balance on the revolving credit facility. The net outstanding balance of the term loan was $2.5 billion at June 29, 2013. Borrowings under our senior secured credit facilities bear interest, at our option, at either an alternate base rate or an adjusted LIBOR rate for a one-, two-, three- or six month interest period, or a nine- or twelve-

-29-

month period, if available to all relevant lenders, in each case, plus an applicable margin. The alternate base rate is the mean the greater of (i) in the case of our term loan, Credit Suisse’s prime rate or, in the case of our revolving credit facility, Bank of America's prime rate and (ii) one-half of 1.0% over the weighted average of rates on overnight Federal Funds as published by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York. At June 29, 2013, the LIBOR rate of 0.27% was applicable to the term loan and second priority senior secured floating rate notes. A 0.25% change in LIBOR would not have a material impact on our interest expense.

In November 2010, the Company entered into two separate interest rate swap transactions to protect $1 billion of the outstanding variable rate term loan debt from future interest rate volatility. The first agreement had a notional amount of $500 and became effective in November 2010. The agreement swaps three month variable LIBOR contracts for a fixed three year rate of 0.8925% and expires in November 2013. The second agreement had a notional amount of $500 and became effective in December 2010. The agreement swaps three month variable LIBOR contracts for a fixed three year rate of 1.0235% and expires in November 2013. The counterparties to these agreements are with global financial institutions. In August 2011, the Company began utilizing 1-month LIBOR contracts for the underlying senior secured credit facility. The Company’s change in interest rate selection caused the Company to lose hedge accounting on both of the interest rate swaps. The Company recorded subsequent changes in fair value in the Consolidated Statement of Operations and will amortize the unrealized losses to Interest expense through the end of the respective swap agreements. A .25% change in LIBOR would not have a material impact on the fair value of the interest rate swaps.

In February 2013, the Company entered into an interest rate swap transaction to manage cash flow variability associated with $1 billion of outstanding variable rate term loan debt (the "2013 Swaps"). The agreement swaps the greater of a three-month variable LIBOR contract or 1.00% for a fixed three-year rate of 2.355%, with an effective date in May 2016 and expiration in May 2019. In June 2013, the Company elected to settle this derivative instrument and received $16 million as a result of this settlement. The offset is included in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss and will be amortized to Interest expense from May 2016 through May 2019, the original term of the swap agreement.

Resin Cost Sensitivity

We are exposed to market risk from changes in plastic resin prices that could impact our results of operations and financial condition. Our plastic resin purchasing strategy is to deal with only high-quality, dependable suppliers. We believe that we have maintained strong relationships with these key suppliers and expect that such relationships will continue into the foreseeable future. The resin market is a global market and, based on our experience, we believe that adequate quantities of plastic resins will be available at market prices, but we can give you no assurances as to such availability or the prices thereof. If the price of resin increased or decreased by 5% it would result in a material change to our cost of goods sold.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

(a) Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures.

Under applicable SEC regulations, management of a reporting company, with the participation of the principal executive officer and principal financial officer, must periodically evaluate the company’s “disclosure controls and procedures,” which are defined generally as controls and other procedures of a reporting company designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the reporting company in its periodic reports filed with the commission (such as this Form 10-Q) is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported on a timely basis.

The Company's management, with the participation of the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the disclosure controls and procedures as of June 29, 2013. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of June 29, 2013, the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level.

(b) Changes in internal controls.

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended June 29, 2013 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
