Our discussion and analysis is intended to help the reader understand our
results of operations and financial condition and is provided as an addition to,
and should be read in connection with, our combined financial statements and the
accompanying notes contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year
ended December 31, 2019.

              Description of the Company and its Business Segments

We are a market-leading consumer products company with a presence in 95% of
households across the United States. We produce and sell products across three
broad categories: cooking products, waste & storage products and tableware. We
sell our products under iconic brands such as Reynolds and Hefty and also under
store brands that are strategically important to our customers. Overall, across
both our branded and store brand offerings, we hold the #1 or #2 U.S. market
share position in the majority of product categories in which we participate. We
have developed our market-leading position by investing in our product
categories and consistently developing innovative products that meet the
evolving needs and preferences of the modern consumer.

We manage our operations in four operating and reportable segments: Reynolds Cooking & Baking, Hefty Waste & Storage, Hefty Tableware and Presto Products.


                         Our Separation from RGHL Group

Prior to our Corporate Reorganization and IPO completed on February 4, 2020, we
operated as part of RGHL Group's broader corporate organization rather than as a
stand-alone public company. RGHL Group performed or supported various corporate
services for us, including executive management, supply chain, information
technology, legal, finance and accounting, human resources, risk management,
tax, treasury and other services. In addition, we have sold products to, and
purchased products from, RGHL Group. Historically, these transactions involving
RGHL Group may not have always been consummated on terms equivalent to those in
an arm's-length transaction. Sales to RGHL Group of products that we manufacture
have been reflected as related party net revenues in our condensed consolidated
financial statements. Certain related party transactions are reflected as
related party receivables and payables in our condensed consolidated balance
sheets and are settled in cash. Prior to our Corporate Reorganization and IPO,
certain related party transactions with RGHL Group were settled by either
non-cash capital contributions from RGHL Group to us or non-cash capital
distributions from us and were included as part of RGHL Group's net investment
in our condensed consolidated balance sheets. We also utilize manufacturing and
warehousing facilities and resources managed by RGHL Group to conduct our
business. The expenses associated with these transactions are included in cost
of sales in our condensed consolidated statements of income. We believe that the
assumptions and methodologies underlying the allocation of these expenses from
RGHL Group are reasonable. However, such allocations do not necessarily reflect
what the results of operations and financial position would have been had we
operated as a stand-alone public company during the periods presented.

In conjunction with our separation from RGHL Group, we entered into a transition
services agreement with Reynolds Group Holdings Inc. whereby RGHL Group will
continue to provide certain administrative services to us, including information
technology services; accounting, treasury, financial reporting and transaction
support; human resources; procurement; tax, legal and compliance related
services; and other corporate services for up to 24 months. In addition, we
entered into a transition services agreement with Rank Group Limited whereby,
upon our request, Rank Group Limited will provide certain administrative
services to us, including financial reporting, consulting and compliance
services, insurance procurement and human resources support, legal and corporate
secretarial support, and related services for up to 24 months. At the conclusion
of these transitional arrangements, we will have to perform these services with
internal resources or contract with third party providers. The previous
arrangements we had with RGHL Group may be materially different from the
arrangements that we have entered into as part of our separation from RGHL
Group.

On February 4, 2020, in conjunction with our Corporate Reorganization and IPO,
we entered into the External Debt Facilities, consisting of the Term Loan
Facility and the Revolving Facility, and repaid portions of the related party
borrowings owed to RGHL Group that were reflected on our condensed consolidated
balance sheet. RGHL Group contributed the remaining balance of related party
borrowings owed by us to RGHL Group as additional paid-in capital without the
issuance of any additional shares prior to the closing of our IPO. In addition,
all indebtedness that we had borrowed under RGHL Group's Credit Agreement was
reallocated and we were released as a borrower and guarantor from such
facilities and released as a guarantor of RGHL Group's outstanding senior notes.

                               Impact of COVID-19

As we manufacture and sell products that are essential to the daily lives of
consumers, we have been classified as an "essential business" and our operations
have remained open throughout the COVID-19 pandemic. We have implemented
policies and procedures designed to protect our employees and our customers
including implementing recommendations from the Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention for social distancing in our plants, screening employees for
increased temperature at certain locations, providing masks and/or face
coverings, engagement of third-party vendors to clean and sanitize facilities,
implementing a work from home policy for all employees who can do so, and
enhanced leave policies to ensure employees experiencing symptoms of COVID-19
stay at home. As the pandemic progresses, we remain committed to adapting our
policies and procedures to ensure the safety of our employees and compliance
with federal, state and local regulations. While not significant to our overall
results of operations, we experienced increased costs in the second quarter of
2020 as a result of COVID-19. However, these costs may not be representative of
what we expect to incur moving forward.



We continue to experience an increase in demand due to the consumer response to
the COVID-19 pandemic. We have experienced increased demand across three of our
segments: Reynolds Cooking & Baking, Hefty Waste & Storage and Presto Products;
while our Hefty Tableware segment has been negatively impacted by the pandemic
due to fewer large gatherings, particularly around summer holidays and end of
school events, as well as lower demand from the foodservice businesses, which
are serviced by certain of our retail partners. The duration of the COVID-19
pandemic remains unknown, and its ongoing impact on our operations may not be
consistent with our experiences to date. At this time, we are unable to predict
with any certainty the nature, timing or magnitude of any changes in future
sales and/or earnings attributable to the spread of COVID-19 in North America.
We do not currently anticipate that the COVID-19 pandemic will materially impact
our liquidity over the next 12 months.

                               Non-GAAP Measures

In this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q we use the non-GAAP financial measures
"Adjusted EBITDA", "Adjusted Net Income" and "Adjusted EPS", which are measures
adjusted for the impact of specified items and are not in accordance with GAAP.

We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income calculated in accordance with GAAP, plus
the sum of income tax expense, net interest expense, depreciation and
amortization and further adjusted to exclude unrealized gains and losses on
derivatives, factoring discounts (pre-IPO), the allocated related party
management fee (pre-IPO) and IPO and separation-related costs. We define
Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted EPS as Net Income and Earnings Per Share
calculated in accordance with GAAP, plus the sum of IPO and separation-related
costs, the impact of tax legislation changes under the CARES Act enacted March
27, 2020 and any unrealized gains or losses on derivatives.

We present Adjusted EBITDA because it is a key measure used by our management
team to evaluate our operating performance, generate future operating plans and
make strategic decisions. In addition, our chief operating decision maker uses
Adjusted EBITDA of each reportable segment to evaluate the operating performance
of such segments. We use Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted EPS as supplemental
metrics to evaluate our business' performance in a way that also considers our
ability to generate profit without the impact of certain items. Accordingly, we
believe presenting these metrics provides useful information to investors and
others in understanding and evaluating our operating results in the same manner
as our management team and board of directors.

Non-GAAP information should be considered as supplemental in nature and is not
meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the related financial
information prepared in accordance with GAAP. In addition, our non-GAAP
financial measures may not be the same as or comparable to similar non-GAAP
financial measures presented by other companies.

The following is a reconciliation of our net income, the most directly

(2) Represents incremental shares required to adjust the weighted average shares

outstanding for the period to the actual shares outstanding as of June 30,

2020. We utilize the shares outstanding at period end as if they had been

outstanding for the full period rather than weighted average shares

outstanding over the course of the period as it is a more meaningful

calculation that provides consistency in comparability due to the additional


    shares issued as a result of the IPO in the period.

Total Net Revenues. Total net revenues increased by $31 million, or 4%, to $822
million. The increase was primarily driven by increased demand due to the
consumer response to the COVID-19 pandemic, partially offset by a $16 million
decline in revenue due to the exit of certain low margin store branded business
in the prior year and a $14 million decline in related party revenue. We have
experienced increased demand across three of our segments: Reynolds Cooking &
Baking, Hefty Waste & Storage and Presto Products; while our Hefty Tableware
segment has been negatively impacted by the pandemic due to fewer large
gatherings, particularly around summer holidays and end of school events, as
well as lower demand from the foodservice businesses, which are serviced by
certain of our retail partners.



Cost of Sales. Cost of sales increased by $6 million, or 1%, to $570 million.
The increase was primarily due to increased revenue, as noted above, partially
offset by lower material and manufacturing costs.



Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by $4 million, or 5%, to $81 million due to higher personnel costs.





Other Expense, Net. Other expense, net decreased by $3 million, or 33%, to $6
million. The decrease was primarily attributable to the factoring discount on
the sale of our U.S. trade receivables through RGHL Group's securitization
facility and the allocated related party management fee in the comparable prior
period partially offset by IPO and separation-related costs during the current
period.



Interest Expense, Net. Interest expense, net decreased by $50 million, or 75%,
to $17 million. The decrease was primarily due to the change in our debt
structure as a result of our IPO in the first quarter of 2020. Prior to the IPO
we had related party debt and associated interest expense that was replaced with
our External Debt Facilities in conjunction with the IPO.



Income Tax (Expense) Benefit. We recognized income tax expense of $36 million on
income before income taxes of $148 million (an effective tax rate of 24%) for
the three months ended June 30, 2020 compared to income tax expense of $19
million on income before income taxes of $74 million (an effective tax rate of
26%) for the three months ended June 30, 2019. The decrease in the effective tax
rate was due to a reduction in permanently non-deductible items.

Adjusted EBITDA. Adjusted EBITDA increased by $24 million, or 14% to $193
million. The increase in Adjusted EBITDA was primarily due to the increased
revenue, as noted above.

Total Segment Net Revenues. Reynolds Cooking & Baking total segment net revenues
increased by $20 million, or 7%, to $295 million. The increase in net revenues
was primarily driven by the increased consumer demand associated with the
changes in consumer behavior driven by the COVID-19 pandemic. The increased
volume was partially offset by a decline in related party revenue and lower
pricing driven by price reductions in support of certain of our customers
achieving key price points and as a result of lower material costs.

Adjusted EBITDA. Reynolds Cooking & Baking Adjusted EBITDA increased by $17
million, or 35%, to $66 million. The increase in Adjusted EBITDA was primarily
driven by the increased revenue, as noted above, and lower material and
manufacturing costs, partially offset by the impact of lower pricing as noted
above.

Total Net Revenues. Total net revenues increased by $96 million, or 7%, to
$1,552 million. The increase in net revenues was largely due to increased demand
due to the consumer response to the COVID-19 pandemic, partially offset by a
decline in revenue due to the exit of certain low margin store branded business
in the prior year, a decline in related party revenue and lower pricing driven
by price reductions in support of certain of our customers achieving key price
points and as a result of lower material costs.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Cost of Sales. Cost of sales increased by $55 million, or 5%, to $1,111 million.
The increase was primarily due to increased revenue, as noted above, partially
offset by lower material and manufacturing costs.



Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by $8 million, or 5%, to $163 million due to higher personnel costs.





Other Expense, Net. Other expense, net increased by $7 million, or 50%, to $21
million. The increase was primarily attributable to IPO and separation-related
costs in the current period, partially offset by a reduction in costs related to
the factoring discount on the sale of our U.S. trade receivables through RGHL
Group's securitization facility and the allocated related party management fee
in the comparable prior period.



Interest Expense, Net. Interest expense, net decreased by $91 million, or 67%,
to $44 million. The decrease was primarily due to the change in our debt
structure as a result of our IPO in the first quarter of 2020. Prior to the IPO
we had related party debt and associated interest expense that was replaced with
our External Debt Facilities in conjunction with the IPO.



Income Tax (Expense) Benefit. We recognized income tax expense of $75 million on
income before income taxes of $213 million (an effective tax rate of 35%) for
the six months ended June 30, 2020 compared to income tax expense of $24 million
on income before income taxes of $96 million (an effective tax rate of 25%) for
the six months ended June 30, 2019. The increase in the effective tax rate was
due to the recognition of a $23 million discrete tax expense associated with the
remeasurement of our deferred taxes as a result of the legislation change from
the CARES Act. Excluding the impact of this, our effective tax rate was 24% for
the six months ended June 30, 2020.

Adjusted EBITDA. Adjusted EBITDA increased by $49 million, or 18% to $328 million. The increase in Adjusted EBITDA was primarily due to increased revenue, as noted above, and lower material and manufacturing costs.

    Segment Adjusted EBITDA Margin         21 %           23 %




Total Segment Net Revenues. Hefty Tableware total segment net revenues decreased
by $7 million, or 2%, to $364 million. The decrease was largely due to changes
in consumer behavior driven by the COVID-19 pandemic. While there was a
temporary increase in revenue at the onset of the pandemic, largely driven by
pantry loading, the pandemic-related restrictions have resulted in fewer large
gatherings, particularly around summer holidays and end of school events, as
well as lower demand from the foodservice businesses, which are serviced by
certain of our retail partners.

Adjusted EBITDA. Hefty Tableware Adjusted EBITDA decreased by $8 million, or 9%,
to $78 million. The decrease in Adjusted EBITDA was primarily driven by the
decline in revenue, as noted above, and increased material and manufacturing
costs which were primarily driven by our transition to a stand-alone entity.

Total Segment Net Revenues. Presto Products total segment net revenues increased by $7 million, or 3%, to $265 million. The increase in net revenues was primarily driven by changes in consumer behavior driven by the COVID-19 pandemic, partially offset by the exit of certain low margin store branded business in the prior year.



Adjusted EBITDA. Presto Products Adjusted EBITDA increased by $7 million, or
16%, to $51 million. The increase in Adjusted EBITDA was primarily driven by
increased revenue, as noted above, and lower material and manufacturing costs.

Increase (decrease) in cash and cash equivalents $ 290


   $           (9 )



Cash provided by operating activities



Net cash provided by operating activities decreased by $75 million to $3 million
in the six months ended June 30, 2020. The change was primarily driven by a $268
million increase in accounts receivable, $240 million of which was related to
accounts receivables previously sold through RGHL Group's securitization
facility prior to our separation from RGHL Group, partially offset by an
increase in net income, a lower net investment in inventory and changes in
related party receivables during the current period.

                                       23

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Cash used in investing activities



Net cash used in investing activities decreased by $8 million to $52 million in
the six months ended June 30, 2020. The net decrease was primarily attributable
to net changes in cash advanced to RGHL Group as part of wider RGHL Group cash
management activities in the prior period. In addition to these related party
items, cash outflows from investing activities increased $11 million or 27%.
This change was primarily attributable to taking operational ownership of two
facilities previously managed by a related party in conjunction with the IPO.

Cash provided by (used in) financing activities



Net cash from financing activities changed by $366 million, from an outflow of
$27 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019 to an inflow of $339 million
for the six months ended June 30, 2020. The change in cash flows from financing
activities was primarily attributable to proceeds received from the IPO and the
drawdown of the Term Loan Facility partially offset by repayments of related
party balances and dividends paid during the 2020 period.

                        Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our principal sources of liquidity are existing cash and cash equivalents, cash
generated from operating activities and available borrowings under the Revolving
Facility.

External Debt Facilities

On February 4, 2020, in conjunction with our Corporate Reorganization and IPO,
we entered into the External Debt Facilities which consist of a $2,475 million
Term Loan Facility and a Revolving Facility that provides for additional
borrowing capacity of up to $250 million, reduced by amounts used for letters of
credit.

The initial borrower under the External Debt Facilities is Reynolds Consumer
Products LLC (the "Borrower"). The Revolving Facility includes a sub-facility
for letters of credit. In addition, the External Debt Facilities provide that
the Borrower has the right at any time, subject to customary conditions, to
request incremental term loans or incremental revolving credit commitments in
amounts and on terms set forth therein. The lenders under the External Debt
Facilities are not under any obligation to provide any such incremental loans or
commitments, and any such addition of or increase in loans is subject to certain
customary conditions precedent and other provisions.

Interest rate and fees



Borrowings under the External Debt Facilities bear interest at a rate per annum
equal to, at our option, either a base rate or a LIBO rate plus an applicable
margin of 1.75%.

Prepayments

The Term Loan Facility contains customary mandatory prepayments, including with respect to excess cash flow, asset sale proceeds and proceeds from certain incurrences of indebtedness.



The Borrower may voluntarily repay outstanding loans under the Term Loan
Facility at any time without premium or penalty, other than customary breakage
costs with respect to LIBO rate loans; provided, however, that any voluntary
prepayment, refinancing or repricing of the External Debt Facilities in
connection with certain repricing transactions that occur prior to August 4,
2020 will be subject to a prepayment premium of 1% of the principal amount of
the term loans so prepaid, refinanced or repriced. Subsequent to June 30, 2020,
we made a voluntary principal payment of $100 million related to the Term Loan
Facility, which was not subject to a prepayment premium.

Amortization and maturity



The Term Loan Facility matures in February 2027. The Term Loan Facility
amortizes in equal quarterly installments of $6 million, which commenced in June
2020, with the balance being payable on maturity. The Revolving Facility matures
in February 2025.

Guarantee and security

All obligations under the External Debt Facilities and certain hedge agreements
and cash management arrangements provided by any lender party to the External
Debt Facilities or any of its affiliates and certain other persons are
unconditionally guaranteed by Reynolds Consumer Products Inc. ("RCPI"), the
Borrower (with respect to hedge agreements and cash management arrangements
entered into by affiliates of the Borrower) and certain of RCPI's existing and
subsequently acquired or organized direct or indirect material wholly-owned U.S.
restricted subsidiaries, with customary exceptions including, among other
things, where providing such guarantees is not permitted by law, regulation or
contract or would result in material adverse tax consequences.

                                       24

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


All obligations under the External Debt Facilities and certain hedge agreements
and cash management arrangements provided by any lender party to the External
Debt Facilities or any of its affiliates and certain other persons, and the
guarantees of such obligations, are secured, subject to permitted liens and
other exceptions, by: (i) a perfected first-priority pledge of all the equity
interests of each wholly-owned material restricted subsidiary of RCPI, the
Borrower or a subsidiary guarantor, including the equity interests of the
Borrower (limited to 65% of voting stock in the case of first-tier non-U.S.
subsidiaries of RCPI, the Borrower or any subsidiary guarantor) and
(ii) perfected first-priority security interests in substantially all tangible
and intangible personal property of RCPI, the Borrower and the subsidiary
guarantors (subject to certain other exclusions).

Certain covenants and events of default



The External Debt Facilities contain a number of covenants that, among other
things, restrict, subject to certain exceptions, our ability and the ability of
the restricted subsidiaries of RCPI to:

  • incur additional indebtedness and guarantee indebtedness;


  • create or incur liens;


  • engage in mergers or consolidations;


  • sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of assets;


  • pay dividends and distributions or repurchase capital stock;


  • prepay, redeem or repurchase certain indebtedness;


  • make investments, loans and advances;


  • enter into certain transactions with affiliates;


    •   enter into agreements which limit the ability of our restricted

subsidiaries to incur restrictions on their ability to make distributions;

and

• enter into amendments to certain indebtedness in a manner materially

adverse to the lenders.




The External Debt Facilities contain a springing financial covenant requiring
compliance with a ratio of first lien net indebtedness to consolidated EBITDA,
applicable solely to the Revolving Facility. The financial covenant is tested on
the last day of any fiscal quarter only if the aggregate principal amount of
borrowings under the Revolving Facility and drawn but unreimbursed letters of
credit exceed 35% of the total amount of commitments under the Revolving
Facility on such day.

If an event of default occurs, the lenders under the External Debt Facilities
are entitled to take various actions, including the acceleration of amounts due
under the External Debt Facilities and all actions permitted to be taken by
secured creditors.

We believe that our projected cash position, cash flows from operations and borrowings under the External Debt Facilities are sufficient to meet the needs of our business for at least the next 12 months.


                   Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Accounting policies and estimates are considered critical when they require
management to make subjective and complex judgments, estimates and assumptions
about matters that have a material impact on the presentation of our financial
statements and accompanying notes. For a description of our critical accounting
policies and estimates, see our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year
