NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1 - ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The accompanying unaudited financial statements reflect all adjustments which
are, in the opinion of management, necessary to fairly present the results for
the interim periods presented and should be read in conjunction with the
Company's 1995 Annual Report.
NOTE 2 - PRO FORMA OPERATING RESULTS
On June 30, 1995, Prideco, Inc. ("Prideco"), a majority-owned subsidiary of the
Company, merged with Grant Acquisition Company, a wholly-owned subsidiary of
Energy Ventures, Inc. ("EVI"). In the merger, the Company's shares of Prideco
were converted into 1,035,858 shares of Common Stock, $1.00 par value, of EVI.
EVI's common stock is listed and traded on the New York Stock Exchange
(NYSE:EVI). Accordingly, the individual accounts of Prideco have been
eliminated from the Company's June 30, 1995 Balance Sheet which reflects the
effect of the merger. Prideco's results of operations are included in the
Company's Consolidated Statement of Earnings through June 30, 1995, the date of
the merger. Concurrently with the merger, the Company acquired an additional
912,873 shares of EVI common stock directly from EVI and the minority
shareholders of Prideco for an aggregate cash price of $13,291,000.
The investment in EVI is classified as "available for sale". Investment
securities classified as available for sale at March 31, 1996 are carried at
fair value with fair value adjustments, net of their related income tax
effects, reported as a component of shareholders' equity.
The following summarizes the unaudited consolidated pro forma operating results
of the Company as if the merger of Prideco, Inc. had occurred as of July 1,
1994 the beginning of the periods.

ITEM 2
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Operations
Christiana Companies consolidated revenues for the nine months ended March 31,
1996 were $19,416,000 versus $31,577,000 reported for the comparable period a
year ago. The decline in revenues is entirely attributable to the merger of
Prideco which had revenues of $14,221,000 in last year's comparable period.
Revenues of Refrigerated Warehousing and Logistics increased 12% to $19,416,000
in the third quarter of fiscal 1996 compared to $17,356,000 for the same period
last year. Revenue growth within this segment occurred due to increased
storage and handling volume at Wiscold, particularly at its largest facility in
Rochelle, Illinois, new capacity added at TLC's facilities in Zeeland, Michigan
and growth in logistic and international freight forwarding services.
Selling, general and administrative expenses are down $1,048,000 in the quarter
compared to the previous year, of which approximately $950,000 is attributable
to the deconsolidation of Prideco. For the first nine months of fiscal 1996,
$2,800,000 of the $2,866,000 decrease in SG&A expense is due to the absence of
Prideco.
Operating earnings for the quarter were $810,000 versus $2,007,000 generated in
the comparable period a year ago. The reduction in operating earnings is
primarily attributable to the absence of Prideco's operations which contributed
operating earnings of $1,068,000 in last year's third quarter, and to a lesser
extent, reduced margins in Refrigerated Warehousing and Logistics. Operating
margins of the Refrigerated Warehousing and Logistics segment were lower due to
higher unused capacity at certain warehouses, lower utilization of equipment,
and increased operating costs in the transportation segment.
Sales of 26 condominium homes were completed in the third quarter of fiscal
1996 which generated net earnings of $623,000 or $0.12 per share compared with
sales of 9 homes in the same period last year which contributed net earnings of
$299,000 or $0.06 per share. Sales this year tended to be lower-priced homes,
resulting in a lower gross profit. In addition, 16 homes were sold to a single
buyer in an "as is" condition, thereby avoiding refurbishment expenses.
Consolidated net earnings for the quarter were $660,000 or $0.13 per share
compared with $741,000 or $0.14 per share for the same period a year ago. Net
earnings were lower this period due to the absence of Prideco's operations
which contributed net earnings of $245,000 in last year's third quarter,
reduced margins in Refrigerated Warehousing and Logistics offset by increased
sales of condominium homes.
For the first nine months of fiscal 1996, Christiana Companies consolidated
revenues were $59,004,000 versus $93,844,000 for the comparable period last
year. The decline in revenues this period is due to the merger of Prideco
which had revenues of $39,911,000 in the first nine months of fiscal 1995.
Refrigerated Warehousing and Logistics revenue increased 9% when compared to
$53,933,000 for the same period a year ago due to growth at TLC in warehousing,
logistic and international services. Wiscold's revenues were in line year to
year, but due to a poor vegetable harvest in the first quarter of fiscal 1996
vegetable freezing services this year were reduced resulting in lower operating
margins. For the nine month period ended March 31, 1996, Refrigerated
Warehousing and Logistics contributed $1,638,000 or $0.31 per share versus
$2,299,000 or $0.43 per share in the comparable period last year.
For the nine months ended March 31, 1996, sales of 50 homes were completed
which generated net earnings of $1,410,000 or $0.27 per share compared to sales
of 39 homes in the same period last year which contributed net earnings of
$1,548,000 or $0.29 per share. Net earnings per unit were lower in fiscal 1996
due primarily to the bulk sale of 16 homes and higher refurbishment expenses
due to sales of older units.

Financial Condition
Cash equivalents and short term investments totaled $5,372,000 as of March 31,
1996 compared with $3,197,000 at June 30, 1995, an increase of $2,175,000.
Cash provided by operating activities of $6,311,000 was primarily attributable
to net earnings, depreciation, and higher deferred taxes. Cash used in
investing activities of $5,048,000 resulted from capital expenditures of
$14,829,000 offset by a decrease of $2,529,000 in short term investments and
asset sales, which included real estate of $5,594,000 and transportation
equipment of $1,416,000. Capital expenditures in the period of $14.8 million
were comprised primarily of costs incurred to date in the construction of two
warehouse facilities ($8.9 million), new transportation equipment ($4.2
million) and real estate refurbishments ($1.7 million).
Working capital at March 31, 1996 totaled $5,244,000 reflecting an increase of
$3,133,000 from June 30, 1995 due primarily to cash flow generated by real
estate sales.
On March 31, 1996, Christiana held for investment 1,948,731 shares of EVI which
represented a 10.5% ownership interest. On March 31, 1996 EVI's share price
was $26.625 giving Christiana's holdings a market value of $51,885,000.
Unrealized appreciation of this investment, before tax, increased $2,680,000 in
the third quarter to $19,980,000 as of March 31, 1996. At quarter end,
unrealized investment gain, net of tax totaled $12,127,000.
Christiana's operating units have capital commitments to construct new
distribution oriented warehousing capacity. Wiscold is constructing a new 3.5
million cubic foot refrigerated distribution center in Rochelle, Illinois with
an expected cost of $11.5 million. The new facility is being built on company
owned property at the site of its existing 10.6 million cubic foot refrigerated
distribution center. This facility is expected to be completed and operational
early in the fourth quarter of fiscal 1996. At March 31, 1996, $7.8 million
had been expended.
The TLC Group is expanding its newest dry distribution center in Zeeland,
Michigan by 106,000 sq. ft. When completed during the fourth quarter of
fiscal 1996, this facility will total 220,000 sq. ft. of dry distribution
capacity. Construction costs of this expansion are expected to be $2.3
million, of which $1.2 million was spent through March 31, 1996.
The construction of these facilities is expected to be funded by internal cash
flow and subsidiary issued term debt.
New Accounting Standard
In 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued FASB Statement No.
123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation," which establishes financial
accounting and reporting standards for stock-based employee compensation. The
Company plans to adopt only the pro forma disclosure requirements of this
statement, and to continue to apply the accounting provisions of Opinion 25 to
stock-based employee compensation arrangements, as is allowed by the Statement.
This disclosure will be effective with the June 30, 1997 financial statements.
