INTRODUCTION TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
----------------------------------------
The consolidated financial statements included herein have been
prepared by Calgon Carbon Corporation (the Company), without audit, pursuant
to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial
statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and
regulations. The Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to make
the information presented not misleading when read in conjunction with the
Company's consolidated financial statements and the notes included therein for
the year ended December 31, 1996.
The financial information presented reflects all adjustments,
consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, which are, in the opinion of
management,necessary for a fair statement of the results for the interim
periods presented. The results for interim periods are not necessarily
indicative of results to be expected for the year.
Price Waterhouse LLP has made a review based on procedures adopted
by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants of the unaudited
consolidated financial statements included in this filing on Form 10-Q. As
stated in its report on page 7, Price Waterhouse LLP did not audit and,
accordingly, does not express an opinion on the unaudited consolidated
financial statements. Price Waterhouse LLP is not subject to the liability
provisions of section 11 of the Securities Act of 1933 for their report on the
unaudited consolidated financial statements because their report is not a
"report" within the meaning of sections 7 and 11 of the Act.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS
To the Board of Directors and
Shareholders of
Calgon Carbon Corporation
We have reviewed the consolidated balance sheet of Calgon Carbon Corporation
and its subsidiaries as of March 31, 1997 and the related consolidated
statements of income and retained earnings and of cash flows for the three-
month periods ended March 31, 1997 and 1996. This financial information is
the responsibility of the Company's management.
We conducted our review in accordance with standards established by the
American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. A review of interim
financial information consists principally of applying analytical review
procedures to financial data and making inquiries of persons responsible for
financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an
audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, the objective
of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements
taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.
Based on our review, we are not aware of any material modifications that
should be made to the accompanying interim financial information for it to be
in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.
We previously audited, in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards, the consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 1996, and the
related consolidated statements of income, shareholders' equity and cash flows
for the year then ended (not presented herein), and in our report dated
February 3, 1997, except as to Note 7, which is as of March 3, 1997, we
expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements.
In our opinion, the accompanying consolidated balance sheet information as of
December 31, 1996 is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the
consolidated balance sheet from which it has been derived.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Results of
------ --------------------------------------------------
Operations and Financial Condition
----------------------------------
This discussion should be read in connection with the information
contained in the Consolidated Financial Statements and Selected Notes to
Financial Statements.
Results of Operations
---------------------
Consolidated net sales for the three months ended March 31, 1997 increased
by $10.9 million or 16% versus the three-month period ended March 31, 1996.
Net sales to the industrial process markets of $42.2 million for the three
months ended March 31, 1997 increased by $8.2 million or 24% over the
comparable 1996 period. This increase was primarily due to increases in the
food and chemical - pharmaceutical areas associated with the Company's
Advanced Separation Technologies business, which was acquired at the end of
1996. Net sales to the environmental markets were $33.7 million for the three
months ended March 31, 1997. This represented an increase of $2.6 million or
8% compared to the three months ended March 31, 1996. The increase resulted
from sales gains in the European municipal category and by the Advanced
Oxidative group, another 1996 acquisition, partially offset by lower initial
fills in the United States municipal category. The consumer area reported
sales of $4.0 million for the three-month period ended March 31, 1997, an
increase of $.1 million or 3% over the comparable 1996 period. Overall, the
net sales increase for the quarter resulted from businesses acquired during
1996, partially offset by a foreign currency transaction decline of $1.7
million related to the strengthening of the U.S. dollar relative to the
European currencies.
Gross profit, before depreciation, as a percentage of net sales, for the three
months ended March 31, 1997 was 38.6% compared to 37.3% for the three-month
period ended March 31, 1996. This 1.3 percentage point improvement was the
net effect of sales increases for higher margin products and reduced natural
gas costs, partially offset by lower margin equipment sales by the Company's
recently acquired businesses.
Depreciation and amortization for the three months ended March 31, 1997
increased by $.5 million due to amortization of intangibles (primarily
goodwill) associated with the Company's 1996 acquisitions.
Selling, general and administrative and research and development expenses for
the three-month period ended March 31, 1997 increased by $2.2 million versus
the comparable 1996 period primarily because of costs associated with the
acquired businesses.
During the quarter ended March 31, 1997, interest income decreased $.2 million
and interest expense increased $.8 million versus the comparable 1996 period.
This net difference of $1.0 million is related to the Company's 1996
acquisition program which resulted in lower surplus cash and the addition of
approximately $60 million of long-term debt.
The effective income tax rate for the three-month period ended March 31, 1997
was 37.7% versus 37.0% for the three months ended March 31, 1996. This
increase was the result of a shift in income to locations with a higher
statutory tax rate than in the United States.
- 8 -
Financial Condition
-------------------
Working Capital and Liquidity
-----------------------------
Net cash provided by operating activities was $1.5 million for the three
months ended March 31, 1997. This represented a $4.1 million decrease from
the three-month period ended March 31, 1996. This decrease was the result of
increased working capital invested in accounts receivable, inventory, other
current assets and accounts payable.
On February 27, 1997, the Company entered into a $50 million five-year bank
credit facility. Proceeds under this credit facility were used to repay the
borrowings outstanding under the Company's one-year U.S. credit facilities.
Historically, the Company has provided sufficient cash on an annual basis for
its debt service, working capital, capital expenditures, restructuring,
dividend and treasury stock purchase requirements. Based on its present
financial position, including its cash and cash equivalents, and history of
operations, the Company anticipates that cash from operating activities
combined with other available external financial resources will provide
sufficient liquidity to fund its 1997 net cash obligations.
Restructuring of Operations
---------------------------
During 1997, the Company expects to continue the restructuring plan begun
in the fourth quarter of 1994. The restructuring reserve at March 31, 1997 of
$7.2 million relates principally to the estimated costs for the demolition of
the Brilon-Wald, Germany plant. The Company has also been approached by
potential purchasers of the facility, however, at this time a suitable buyer
has not been identified. Evaluations of demolition, disposition, site
protection and environmental costs continue and the existing reserves are
believed to be adequate.
Capital Expenditures and Investments
------------------------------------
Capital expenditures for property, plant and equipment totaled $6.1
million for the three months ended March 31, 1997 compared to expenditures of
$2.2 million for the same period in 1996. The major portion of the 1997
expenditures was related to capacity expansion and cost reduction projects at
the Big Sandy, Kentucky plant ($3.2 million), the Pearl River, Mississippi
plant ($.6 million) and at the Feluy, Belgium facility ($1.1 million).
Capital expenditures for the year 1997 are projected to be approximately $40
million.
The 1997 purchase of businesses amount of $.5 million was an increase to the
purchase price for Advanced Separation Technologies Incorporated due to a
higher level of "Adjusted Closing Net Current Assets" than stated in the
purchase agreement. The 1996 purchase of businesses amount of $7.8 million
was related to the 1996 acquisition of the perox-pure/TM/ operations of Vulcan
Peroxidation Systems, Inc. For additional information associated with these
acquisitions, please refer to the Company's consolidated financial statements
and notes included therein (specifically Number 2) for the year ended December
31, 1996.
- 9 -
New Accounting Pronouncements
-----------------------------
In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 128, "Earnings per
Share." SFAS No. 128 establishes new standards for computing and presenting
earnings per share. The Company is required to adopt the provisions of SFAS
No. 128 for its consolidated financial statements for the year ended December
31, 1997 and subsequent interim periods. Upon adoption, the standard also
requires the restatement of all prior period earnings per share information
presented. The adoption of SFAS No. 128 is not expected to have a material
effect on the Company's earnings per share computations or disclosures.
