REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- To the Board of Directors of Tredegar Corporation: In our opinion, the accompanying statements of net assets and the related statements of income and cash flows present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the films business of Exxon Chemical Company ("Exxon Films"), a division of Exxon Corporation, at December 31, 1998 and 1997, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 1998, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. These financial statements are the responsibility of Exxon Films' management; our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these statements in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards which require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for the opinion expressed above. PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP Richmond, Virginia March 4, 1999 3

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The Films Business of Exxon Chemical Company, a Division of Exxon Corporation (Quarterly Data, 12 Months Ended March 31 1999, Information and Note 6 Unaudited) (In Thousands) 1 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Organization and Nature of Operations. The films business of Exxon Chemical Company ("Exxon Films"), a division of Exxon Corporation, manufactures plastic films primarily used in consumer disposables, paper products packaging and medical applications. The business has two plants located in Lake Zurich, Illinois and Pottsville, Pennsylvania. Tredegar Corporation ("Tredegar") acquired the business on May 17, 1999 (see pages 12-25 for more information). Basis of Presentation and Transactions with Exxon Corporation. The financial statements include the accounts and operations of Exxon Films. Intercompany accounts and transactions within Exxon Films have been eliminated. Exxon Films engaged in various transactions with Exxon Corporation and its affiliates that are characteristic of a group of companies under common control. Exxon Films has no separate capital structure of its own and utilized Exxon Corporation's centralized treasury system, pursuant to which substantially all disbursements, including capital expenditures, payroll and other expense items, were funded by Exxon Corporation. Transactions with Exxon Corporation and its affiliates were deemed settled immediately and there were no amounts due to or from Exxon Corporation and its affiliates at the end of any period. The financial statements include allocations of general corporate expenses incurred by Exxon Corporation on behalf of Exxon Films. However, these allocations do not necessarily represent the level of expenses Exxon Films would have incurred had it operated on a stand-alone basis. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 1999, are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year (see Note 6). The Financial Accounting Standards Board has issued a new standard affecting the accounting for derivative instruments and hedging activities. This standard is not expected to significantly change operating results, financial condition or disclosures. The new standard will be adopted in the first quarter of 2001. Revenue Recognition. Revenue from the sale of products is recognized when title and risk of loss have transferred to the buyer, which is generally when product is shipped. 7

Inventories. Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market, with cost determined on the last-in, first-out ("LIFO") basis for all inventories except stores and supplies. The cost of stores and supplies inventories is determined on the first-in, first-out ("FIFO") basis. Cost elements included in work-in-process and finished goods inventories are raw materials, direct labor and manufacturing overhead. Property, Plant and Equipment. Accounts include costs of assets constructed or purchased, related delivery and installation costs and interest incurred on significant capital projects during their construction periods. Expenditures for renewals and betterments also are capitalized, but expenditures for repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred. Depreciation is computed primarily by the straight-line method based on the estimated useful lives of the assets as follows: - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- March 31, 1999 Depreciation Period Property, plant and equipment, at cost: Land $ 63 Buildings and improvements 12,456 30 years Machinery and equipment 84,749 16 - 20 years Furniture and fixtures 775 16 years Computers 1,791 5 - 7 years Vehicles 181 5 - 8 years - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total 100,015 Accumulated depreciation 35,774 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Net property, plant and equipment $ 64,241 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Impairment of Long-Lived Assets. For assets to be held and used in operations, if events indicate that an asset may be impaired, management estimates the future unlevered cash flows expected to result from the use of the asset and its eventual disposition. Assets are grouped for this purpose at the lowest level for which there are identifiable and independent cash flows. If the sum of these undiscounted cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the asset, an impairment loss is recognized. Measurement of the impairment loss is based on the estimated fair value of the asset. Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of their carrying amount or estimated fair value less cost to sell, with an impairment loss recognized for any write-downs required. Employee Benefit Plans. Eligible salaried employees of Exxon Films participated in the benefit plans of Exxon Corporation, including its health and dental assistance program, defined benefit pension plan, savings plan with company match, disability plan and life insurance plan. Eligible hourly employees participated in separate plans covering similar benefits. The estimated costs for these employee benefit programs have been allocated to Exxon Films and included in the statements of income. 8

Income Taxes. Exxon Films is included in Exxon Corporation's consolidated federal income tax return. Income tax expense for Exxon Films has been calculated and recognized on a separate return basis. Deferred income taxes arise from temporary differences between financial reporting and income tax reporting of various items, principally depreciation, inventories, accrued vacation and allowance for doubtful accounts. Earnings Per Share. Earnings per share is not applicable to Exxon Films since it has no capital structure of its own. 2 MAJOR CUSTOMERS, CREDIT CONCENTRATION AND RECEIVABLES - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- A significant portion of Exxon Film's sales are concentrated with four customers ranked as follows: - ----------------------------------------------------------------------- 1998 1997 ------------------------ ------------------------ % of % of Sales Total Sales Total - ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Customer rank: 1 $ 15,719 14.4 % $ 15,003 14.0 % 2 14,011 12.8 12,443 11.6 3 13,755 12.6 4,734 4.4 4 12,117 11.1 17,010 15.8 - ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Total $ 55,602 50.9 % $ 49,190 45.8 % - ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Plastic film supplied to customers ranked 1 and 2 were converted into materials used in products manufactured by the third customer, The Procter & Gamble Company (P&G), Tredegar's largest customer. Management performs ongoing evaluations of customers and generally does not require collateral for trade receivables. Accounts and notes receivable include an allowance for doubtful accounts of $280 at March 31, 1999, $280 at December 31, 1998 and $180 at December 31, 1997. 3 INVENTORIES - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Inventories consist of the following: - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- March 31, December 31, ------------------------ 1999 1998 1997 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Finished goods $ 2,312 $ 1,750 $ 876 Raw materials and work-in process 5,219 4,866 2,167 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total finished goods, raw materials and work-in process inventories stated at LIFO value 7,531 6,616 3,043 Stores and supplies stated at FIFO value 2,178 2,188 2,128 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total $ 9,709 $ 8,804 $ 5,171 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Inventories stated on a LIFO basis are below replacement costs by approximately $5,100 at March 31, 1999, $4,600 at December 31, 1998 and $4,900 at December 31, 1997. 9

4 INCOME TAXES - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Income before income taxes and income taxes are as follows: - --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Three Months Years Ended Ended March 31, 12 Mos. December 31, ----------------------- Ended --------------------- 1999 1998 3/31/99 1998 1997 - --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Income before income taxes $ 6,376 $ 3,448 $ 20,383 $ 17,455 $ 10,568 - --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Current income taxes: Federal $ 2,815 $ 1,268 6,121 $ 4,574 $ 3,860 State 220 99 479 358 303 - --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total 3,035 1,367 6,600 4,932 4,163 - --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Deferred income taxes: Federal (603) (72) 949 1,480 (195) State (47) (5) 74 116 (16) - --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total (650) (77) 1,023 1,596 (211) - --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total income taxes $ 2,385 $ 1,290 $ 7,623 $ 6,528 $ 3,952 - --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The effective income tax rate for each period of 37.4% is comprised principally of the federal income tax rate of 35% and a state income tax rate of 2.7% (net of federal benefit). Deferred income taxes result from temporary differences between financial and income tax reporting of various items. The source of these differences and the tax effects are as follows: - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Three Months Years Ended Ended March 31, 12 Mos December 31, ---------------- Ended ------------------------ 1999 1998 3/31/99 1998 1997 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Depreciation $ (113) $ 40 $ 531 $ 684 $ (1,215) Inventories (592) (79) 408 921 1,039 Accrued vacation 55 - 84 29 (35) Allowance for doubtful accounts - (38) - (38) - - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total $ (650) $ (77) $ 1,023 $ 1,596 $ (211) - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Deferred tax assets and liabilities at March 31, 1999 and December 31, 1998 and 1997, are as follows: 10

5 LOSS ON PROPERTY DISPOSALS - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Loss on property disposals in 1997 of $2,644 relates principally to the sale of a plastic films plant in Wentzville, Missouri, following the consolidation of a portion of its business into the Pottsville plant. 6 ANALYSIS OF RECENT OPERATING RESULTS (UNAUDITED) - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Operating profit (income before income taxes) increased to $6,376, a record level, in the first quarter of 1999 from $3,448 in the first quarter of 1998, due primarily to higher volume of breathable diaper backsheet film and packaging film supplied to P&G, and lower costs. Operating profit increased to $17,455 in 1998 from $10,568 in 1997 due mainly to: o The loss on property disposals recognized in 1997 (see Note 5) o Savings from the consolidation of business from the Wentzville plant into the Pottsville plant (see Note 5) o The commercialization and ramp-up of breathable diaper backsheet film supplied to P&G 11

INTRODUCTION TO PRO FORMA FINANCIAL INFORMATION (UNAUDITED) - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tredegar Corporation (In Thousands) Set forth below is certain pro forma consolidated financial information for Tredegar's acquisition of Exxon Films, and other selected pro forma financial information for acquisitions made by Tredegar from the beginning of 1998 through the acquisition of Exxon Films. Historical financial information on Tredegar was excerpted or derived from the audited financial statements contained in our 1998 Annual Report on Form 10-K and the unaudited financial statements contained in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the first quarter of 1999. The historical information below is qualified in its entirety by reference to such reports. On May 17, 1999, Tredegar acquired the assets of Exxon Films for cash consideration of $203,693 (including estimated transaction costs of $3,693) using borrowed funds. During the 12 months ended March 31, 1999, Exxon Films had pro forma revenues of $110,999 and generated pro forma EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization and excluding potential synergies) of $24,618. The asset-purchase structure, unlike a stock-purchase transaction, allows Tredegar to deduct over time the full value of depreciable fixed assets and intangibles (goodwill). We estimate the present value of these tax benefits to be worth $28,000 based on the following assumptions: o A step-up in the basis of depreciable property, plant and equipment and intangibles of $119,132, which we estimate will be amortized for tax purposes over 15 years at $7,942 per year (estimated tax benefits of $2,994 per year assuming a combined federal and state income tax rate of 37.7%) o A discount rate of 6.65%, our estimated current average cost of debt and the rate we believe reflects the low risk that future taxable income will not be sufficient for the ultimate realization of these benefits The pro forma consolidated statements of income on pages 14-17 (and related notes) assume that Tredegar acquired Exxon Films at the beginning of 1998. The pro forma consolidated balance sheet on page 18 (and related notes) assumes that Tredegar acquired Exxon Films on March 31, 1999. The pro forma information excludes cost reductions, efficiencies and technology enhancements expected from the integration of Exxon Films into existing operations. Tredegar expects that, by 2001, the annual ongoing benefits from these synergies will range from $7,000 - $9,000. Other selected pro forma financial information on pages 19-22 (and related notes) assumes that all of Tredegar's acquisitions from the beginning of 1998 through the acquisition of Exxon Films were made at the beginning of 1998. In addition to Exxon Films, Tredegar acquired: o The assets of Therics, Inc. ("Therics") on April 8, 1999 o The stock of Canadian-based Exal Aluminum Inc. ("Exal") on June 11, 1998 o Two Canadian-based aluminum extrusion and fabrication plants from Reynolds Metals Company ("Reynolds") on February 6, 1998 12

The assets of Therics were acquired for cash consideration of $13,600 (including transaction costs). Before the acquisition, Tredegar owned approximately 19 percent of Therics. Upon the final liquidation of the former Therics, Tredegar will have paid approximately $10,220 to effectively acquire the remaining 81% ownership interest. Therics is developing a new microfabrication technology that has potential applications in drug delivery and a variety of other medical markets. The company's primary focus is on commercializing its TheriForm(TM) technology, a novel process for manufacturing tablets, capsules and implantables with drug release profiles that are expected to provide therapeutic advantages over currently available products. Therics employs 43 people and is part of our Technology Group, which already includes Molecumetics, our drug discovery subsidiary, and Tredegar Investments, our venture capital subsidiary. We plan to recognize a nonrecurring charge of $3,458 in the second quarter of 1999 related to the write-off of in-process research and development acquired. The amount of the charge was determined through an independent, third-party analysis. Exal was acquired for $44,106 (including transaction costs), which was comprised of: o Cash consideration of $32,887 ($31,790 net of cash acquired) o 380,172 shares of Class I non-voting preferred shares of Tredegar's Bon L Canada subsidiary (the "Class I Shares") The Class I Shares are exchangeable into shares of Tredegar common stock on a one-for-one basis. Each Class I Share is economically equivalent to one share of Tredegar common stock and accordingly accounted for in the same manner. Tredegar funded the cash portion of the purchase price with available cash on hand. Exal operates aluminum extrusion plants in Pickering, Ontario and Aurora, Ontario. Both facilities manufacture extrusions for distribution, transportation, electrical, machinery and equipment, and building and construction markets. The Pickering facility also produces aluminum logs and billet for internal use and for sale to customers. The former Reynolds plants in Canada were acquired for cash consideration of $29,093 (including transaction costs) using available cash on hand. The plants are located in Ste-Therese, Quebec, and Richmond Hill, Ontario. Both facilities manufacture extruded and fabricated aluminum products used primarily in building and construction, transportation, electrical, machinery and equipment, and consumer durables markets. Each acquisition was accounted for using the purchase method, and related operating results have been included in Tredegar's consolidated statements of income since the dates acquired. Excluded from the pro forma results are synergies expected from the integration of acquired and existing operations. Accordingly, the pro forma financial information does not purport to be indicative of the future results or the financial position of Tredegar or the net income and financial position that would actually have been attained had the pro forma transactions occurred on the dates or for the periods indicated. The pro forma financial information is unaudited. 13

- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NOTES TO PRO FORMA FINANCIAL INFORMATION (UNAUDITED) Tredegar Corporation (In Thousands) (1) Represents adjustment to reclassify freight costs of Exxon Films from cost of goods sold to net sales consistent with Tredegar's classification system (2) The pro forma adjustments to cost of goods sold for the acquisition of Exxon Films are as follows: - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Three Months 12 Mos. Yr. Ended Ended March 31, Ended Dec. 31, ------------------------------ 1999 1998 3/31/99 1998 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Higher depreciation expense due to the: Net write-up of property, plant and equipment to estimated fair value and the effect of changes to remaining depreciation lives $ 670 $ 670 $ 2,679 $ 2,679 Estimated depreciation on replacement computers to resolve Year 2000 information technology issues (see further discussion below) 95 95 380 380 Expected higher employee benefit expenses under Tredegar employee benefit programs 75 75 708 708 Reclass of freight costs to net sales (814) (653) (3,328) (3,167) - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Total pro forma adjustment to cost of goods sold $ 26 $ 187 $ 439 $ 600 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ For purposes of allocating the purchase price for Exxon Films among various assets acquired and liabilities assumed, we have estimated the respective asset and liability fair values pending completion of final valuation. As a result of a preliminary valuation, the allocation of the purchase price to the net assets acquired and goodwill are as follows: - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Estimated net assets of Exxon Films on acquisition date (balance at March 31, 1999) $ 64,745 Adjustments to reflect net assets at estimated fair value: Write-up of inventory from LIFO value to estimated replacement cost 5,574 Write-up of property, plant and equipment to estimated fair value 7,333 Pension obligation assumed for certain benefit credits granted to former employees of Exxon Films upon their hiring and immediate participation in Tredegar's pension plans (6,275) Other adjustment to accrued liabilities (88) Elimination of deferred income taxes due to step-up in tax basis of net assets to estimated fair value 18,489 Goodwill (to be amortized on a straight-line basis over 30 years at $3,797 per year) 113,915 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total purchase price and value of net assets acquired $203,693 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 23

The estimated fair value and weighted average remaining useful lives of property, plant and equipment for Exxon Films are as follows: - ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Estimated Weighted Average Remaining Exxon Films Property, Plant and Equipment Amount Useful Life Estimated fair value on acquisition date: Land $ 2,179 Land improvements 413 10.4 years Buildings 9,300 20 years Machinery and equipment 58,877 9 years Furniture and fixtures 339 4.1 years Computers 371 3.2 years Vehicles 95 3.7 years - ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total 71,574 Estimated net book value of property, plant and equipment for Exxon Films on acquisition date (balance at March 31, 1999) 64,241 - ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Estimated write-up of property, plant and equipment to estimated fair value $ 7,333 - ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The computer systems for Exxon Films are not Year 2000 compliant. Tredegar plans to replace non-compliant systems (including internal computer-based information systems, communications equipment and shop floor machines) and integrate the business into the enterprise-wide systems infrastructure of Tredegar Film Products. Tredegar expects to complete all remediation efforts by the end of 1999 at a cost of approximately $1,900, most of which will be capitalized and amortized over the estimated useful life of related assets. (3) The pro forma adjustment to selling, general and administrative expenses relates to the elimination of salaries and benefits associated with employees of Exxon Films that were not hired and will not be replaced by Tredegar. (4) Tredegar borrowed money under its $275,000 revolving credit facility to fund its acquisition of Exxon Films. The borrowings are currently being rolled over each month at relatively low floating rates while we review long-term financing options to maintain our available credit at about $275,000. We are considering using interest-rate swaps or other derivative instruments to fix the interest rate for several years on a portion of our acquisition financing. The pro forma adjustment to interest expense assumes an annual weighted average interest rate of 6.65% on the total acquisition cost of $203,693. This rate was determined using market rates as of June 22, 1999, assuming a 50/50 split of floatingand fixed- rate debt with the floating portion priced at 6.02% and the fixed portion (assumed fixed for 5 years with an interest rate swap) priced at 7.28%. (5) The pro forma adjustment to income taxes for the acquisition of Exxon Films was made at an estimated combined federal and state income tax rate of 37.7%. Since the acquisition was structured as an asset purchase, goodwill is deductible for tax purposes on a straight-line basis over 15 years. 24

(6) The pro forma adjustments for Exxon Films included in the other selected pro forma financial information presented on pages 19-22 were derived from the historical and pro forma financial information presented on pages 4-18. (7) The pro forma adjustments for the purchase of the assets of Therics included in the other selected pro forma financial information on pages 19-22 were based on the following: o Historical operating results of Therics for the periods presented o An allocation of the purchase price to the assets acquired and depreciation and amortization rates as follows: o Assumed interest income foregone by Tredegar on the cash used to fund the acquisition of 4.9% for the first quarter of 1999, 5.6% for the first quarter of 1998, 5.43% for the 12 months ended March 31, 1999, and 5.6% for all of 1998 o An estimated combined federal and state income tax rate of 36% and the deductibility of intangibles for tax purposes on a straight-line basis over 15 years (8) The pro forma adjustments for the aluminum extrusion acquisitions included in the other selected pro forma financial information on pages 19-22 were derived from: o The information contained in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the first quarter of 1999 o The information contained in our 1998 Annual Report on Form 10-K o The related pro forma information contained in our Form 8-K/A filed on August 19, 1998 25
