Results of Operations

Net Sales

         Net sales increased to $64.7 million in the quarter ended March 31,
2001, compared to $64.5 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2000. Atlantis
Plastics Films' volume (measured in pounds) for the quarter ended March 31, 2001
increased 10% over the comparable quarter in 2000 and 16% over the quarter ended
December 31, 2000.

         Weakness in the home building and durable goods sectors resulted in a
decline from the prior year of 12% in net sales for Atlantis' Molded Products
segment. Net sales in the quarter ended March 31, 2001, decreased to $18.4
million compared to $20.9 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2000.

         In May 2001, the Company agreed to certain retroactive price
concessions with a customer, which will result in a charge of approximately
$200,000 during the quarter ended June 30, 2001.

Gross Profit and Operating Profit

         Atlantis' gross margin decreased to 16% in the quarter ended March 31,
2001, compared to 17% for the quarter ended March 31, 2000. Operating margin
decreased to 5% in the quarter ended March 31, 2001, compared to 7% for the
quarter ended March 31, 2000. In the plastic films segment, gross margin
increased to 17% in the quarter ended March 31, 2001, compared to 15% in the
quarter ended March 31, 2000, as a result of the increased volume and resulting
improved asset utilization. Operating margins in the plastic films segment
increased to 6% in the first quarter of 2001, compared with 5% in the first
quarter 2000.

         In Atlantis' Molded Products segment, the economic slowdown and
resulting decline in volume caused gross margins and operating margins to
decline to 15% and 4% respectively, in the quarter ended March 31, 2001,
compared to 21% and 10% respectively, for the quarter ended March 31, 2000.

Selling, General, and Administrative Expense

         The Company's selling, general, and administrative ("SG&A") expense
increased to $6.9 million in the quarter ended March 31, 2001 from $6.6 million
in the quarter ended March 31, 2000. The increase is primarily the result of
increased incentives for sales personnel in the plastic films segment for the
record sales volume experienced during the first quarter 2001.

Net Interest Expense and Income Taxes

         Net interest expense for the quarter ended March 31, 2001 increased to
$2.6 million, compared to $2.5 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2000.
Total debt increased to $94.9 at March 31, 2001, compared to $92.0 million at
March 31, 2000. However, interest rate declines in the quarter ended March 31,
2001 resulted in a lower average interest rate on the variable portion of debt,
primarily the debt associated with the revolving credit agreement, compared to
the average variable interest rate for the quarter ended March 31, 2000.

         The Company's effective income tax rate in both 2001 and 2000 differed
from the applicable statutory rate primarily due to nondeductible goodwill
amortization and the effect of state income taxes.

                                       8


Income

         As a result of the factors described above, operating income decreased
to $3.5 million (5% of net sales) during the quarter ended March 31, 2001,
compared to $4.4 million (7% of net sales) for the quarter ended March 31, 2000.
Net income and basic and diluted earnings per share for the quarter ended March
31, 2001 and 2000 were as follows:

                                               2001                 2000
                                             ------------         ------------
Net income                                   $0.4 million         $1.1 million
   Basic earnings per share                  $0.06                $0.14
   Diluted earnings per share                $0.06                $0.14

Liquidity and Capital Resources

         At March 31, 2001, the Company had approximately $94.9 million of
outstanding indebtedness, approximately $1.9 million in cash and cash
equivalents, and an additional $15.2 million unused availability under its
revolving credit facility, net of outstanding letters of credit of approximately
$1.3 million. The revolving credit facility expires November 12, 2001, and there
can be no assurance that the commitment will be renewed or extended, or that
another source of financing will be available to the Company on satisfactory
terms. As of April 30, 2001 borrowings on this facility totaled $16.5 million
and unused availability, net of outstanding letters of credit of approximately
$1.3 million, equaled $12.2 million. The Company's principal needs for
liquidity, on both a short and long-term basis, relate to working capital
(principally accounts receivable and inventories), debt service, and capital
expenditures. The Company presently does not have any material commitments for
future capital expenditures. It expects to meet its short and long-term
liquidity needs, including those related to the Senior Note sinking fund payment
due February 2002, with cash on hand, funds generated from operations, funds
available under its revolving credit facility, and as discussed below, possible
additional borrowing to refinance the long-term debt.

         At March 31, 2001 the Company's current portion of long-term debt
increased by $21.8 million to $40.8 million from the balance of $19.0 million at
December 31, 2000. This increase was primarily the result of the
reclassification from long-term debt to current debt of the $24.8 million
sinking fund payment due February 2002 on its 11% Senior Notes. In April 2001,
Atlantis repurchased $3.5 million in principal amount, of its 11% Senior Notes,
which reduced the February 2002 sinking fund requirement by the same amount. In
addition, Atlantis is exploring alternatives to refinance its long-term debt,
including its 11% Senior Notes due February 2003 and the remaining sinking fund
payment of $21.3 million due February 2002.

         The Company's high debt level presents substantial risks and could have
negative consequences. For example, it could (1) require the Company to dedicate
a substantial portion of its cash flow from operations to repayment of debt,
limiting the availability of cash for other purposes; (2) increase the Company's
vulnerability to adverse general economic conditions by making it more difficult
to borrow additional funds to maintain its operations if the Company suffers
shortfalls in net sales; (3) hinder the Company's flexibility in planning for,
or reacting to, changes in its business and industry by preventing the Company
from borrowing money to upgrade its equipment or facilities; and (4) limit or
impair the Company's ability to obtain additional financing in the future for
working capital, capital expenditures, acquisitions, or general corporate
purposes.

                                       9


         In the event that the Company's cash flow from operations is not
sufficient to fund the Company's expenditures or to service its indebtedness,
including the required $21.3 million sinking fund payment, the Company would be
required to raise additional funds through the sale of assets or subsidiaries.
There can be no assurance that any of these sources of funds would be available
in amounts sufficient for the Company to meet its obligations. Moreover, even if
the Company were able to meet its obligations, its highly leveraged capital
structure could significantly limit its ability to finance its expansion program
and other capital expenditures, to compete effectively, or to operate
successfully under adverse economic conditions.

Cash Flows from Operating Activities

For the quarter ended March 31, 2001, net cash provided by operating activities
was approximately $4.6 million, compared to $2.1 million for the quarter ended
March 31, 2000. The difference between the Company's net income of $426,000 and
its $4.6 million operating cash flow for the quarter ended March 31, 2001 was
primarily attributable to approximately $3.0 million of depreciation and
amortization expense, a $3.6 million decrease in other assets resulting
primarily from the receipt of resin rebates and tax refunds, an approximately
$755,000 decrease in inventories, partially offset by an approximately $2.9
million increase in accounts receivable due to increased net sales, and a
$506,000 decrease in deferred income taxes.

Cash Flows from Investing Activities

         Net cash used in investing activities decreased to $1.6 million in the
quarter ended March 31, 2001, compared to $2.8 million for the quarter ended
March 31, 2000. This decrease was primarily the result of reduced capital
expenditures (net of dispositions).

Cash Flows from Financing Activities

         Net cash used in financing activities for the quarter ended March 31,
2001 was $3.5 million, compared with net cash provided by financing activities
of $0.5 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2000. The Company's financing
cash flow for the quarter ended March 31, 2001 reflects net repayments of $3.0
million under the revolving credit agreements and approximately $633,000 in
payments on long-term debt. This was partially offset by the receipt of
approximately $140,000 in interest due from shareholder notes.

         As stated earlier, in April 2001, the Company repurchased $3.5 million,
in principal amount, of the 11% Senior Notes. This repurchase was financed with
borrowings of $3.0 million under the revolving credit agreement.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

         In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS 133,
"Accounting for Derivative Investments and Hedging Activities". SFAS 133
establishes a new model for accounting for derivatives and hedging activities
and supersedes several existing standards. SFAS 133, as amended by SFAS 137 and
SFAS 138, is effective for all fiscal quarters of fiscal years beginning after
June 15, 2000. The adoption of SFAS 133 did not have a material impact on its
financial statements.

Note Regarding Forward Looking Statements

         This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements
within the meaning of that term in Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and
Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Additional written or oral
forward-looking statements may be made by the Company from time to time, in
press releases, annual or quarterly reports to shareholders, filings with the
Securities Exchange Commission, presentations or otherwise. Statements contained
herein that are not historical facts are forward-looking statements made
pursuant to the safe harbor provisions referenced above.

         Forward-looking statements may include, but are not limited to,
projections of net sales, income or losses, or capital expenditures; plans for
future operations; financing needs or plans; compliance with financial covenants
in loan agreements; plans for liquidation or sale of assets or businesses; plans
relating to products or services of the Company; assessments of materiality;
predictions of future events; the ability to obtain additional financing; the
Company's ability to meet obligations as they become due; the impact of pending
and possible litigation; as well as assumptions relating to the foregoing. In
addition, when used in this discussion, the words "anticipates," "believes,"
"estimates," "expects," "intends," "plans" and similar expressions are intended
to identify forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are
inherently subject to risks and uncertainties, including, but not limited to,
the impact of leverage, dependence on major customers, fluctuating demand for
the Company's products, risks in product and technology development, fluctuating
resin prices, competition, litigation, labor disputes, capital requirements, and
other risk factors detailed in the Company's Securities and Exchange Commission
filings, some of which cannot be predicted or quantified based on current
expectations.

         Consequently, future events and actual results could differ materially
from those set forth in, contemplated by, or underlying the forward-looking
statements. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on any
forward-looking statements contained herein, which speak only as of the date
hereof. The Company undertakes no obligation to publicly release the result of
any revisions to these forward-looking statements that may be made to reflect
events or circumstances after the date hereof or to reflect the occurrence of
unanticipated events.

Item 3.  Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

         The Company is exposed to market risk from changes in interest rates,
primarily as a result of its floating interest rate debt.

         The following table summarizes information on debt instruments. The
table presents expected maturity of debt instruments and projected annual
average interest rates. For variable rate debt instruments, average interest
rates are based on one month London Inter-Bank Offered (LIBOR), prime, and
commercial paper rates as of March 30, 2001. The fair market value of the Senior
Notes is based on quoted market price as of April 6, 2001. The carrying value of
the Company's other long-term debt approximates its fair market value.
