                                   ONEIDA LTD.
                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                   (Unaudited)
                                   (Thousands)


1. The consolidated financial statements for the three and six months ended July
28, 2001 and July 29, 2000 are unaudited; in the opinion of the Company such
unaudited consolidated financial statements include all adjustments (which
comprise only normal recurring accruals) necessary for a fair presentation of
the results of such periods.

The results of operations for the three and six months ended July 28, 2001 are
not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be expected for the
year ending January 26, 2002. The consolidated financial statements and notes
thereto should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements
and notes for the years ended in January 2001 and 2000 included in the Company's
January 27, 2001 Annual Report to the Securities and Exchange Commission on Form
10-K and the Company's Form 8-K that was filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission on August 9, 2000.

2. The provision for income taxes is based on pre-tax income for financial
statement purposes with an appropriate deferred tax provision to give effect to
changes in temporary differences between the financial statements and tax bases
of assets and liabilities. The temporary differences arise principally from
restructuring charges, postretirement benefits, depreciation and other employee
benefits.

3. On June 13, 2000, the Company purchased all of the stock of Viners of
Sheffield, Ltd. (Viners), a London based marketer of flatware and cookware in
the United Kingdom, for approximately $25,000 in cash. On June 30, 2000, the
Company acquired all of the net assets of Sakura, Inc. (Sakura) a domestic
importer of consumer dinnerware, for approximately $40,000 in cash. On August 9,
2000, the Company completed the acquisition of the stock of Delco International
Ltd. (Delco), a leading foodservice tableware supplier for $60,000 in cash.

The above three acquisitions were recorded using the purchase method of
accounting and accordingly, their operating results have been included in the
Company's consolidated financial statements since their respective acquisition
dates. Excess purchase price over the net fair value of assets acquired
(including certain acquisition costs) totaled $113,346. These intangibles,
primarily goodwill, are being amortized over forty years using the straight line
method.

                                   ONEIDA LTD.
                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                   (Unaudited)
                                   (Thousands)

4. During the year ended January 27, 2001, the Company recorded restructuring
and unusual charges totaling $39,000. Included in this total was an inventory
writedown of $24,000 related to product rationalization as a result of recent
acquisitions as well as significant other stock keeping unit reductions. The
Company established a $24,000 inventory reserve in the second quarter of 2000,
approximately half of which was utilized through the most recent year end. In
the second quarter and first half of the current year, $3,400 and
$8,300,respectively, of the reserve was utilized to dispose of excess and
discontinued product.

The remainder of the restructuring and unusual costs accrued of $15,000 related
primarily to the consolidation of sales, marketing, logistics and administrative
functions, realignment of product lines, "make versus buy" decisions and the
impairment of certain manufacturing and procurement assets. All assets
identified as impaired were written down by $5,000 to their net realizable value
in the prior year. Other restructuring payments made to date totaled $8,700, of
which $1,200 and $2,200 were paid in the current quarter and year to date.

There were no significant adjustments made to the original accruals for
restructuring and unusual charges.


5. Basic and diluted earnings per share are presented for each period in which a
statement of operations is presented. Basic earnings per share is computed by
dividing income less preferred stock dividends by the weighted average shares
actually outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per share includes the
potentially dilutive effect of shares issuable under the employee stock purchase
and incentive stock option plans.

The following is a reconciliation of basic earnings per share to diluted
earnings per share for the three months ended July 28, 2001 and July 29, 2000:

June 30, 2001 and December 31, 2001 respectively, for the Corporation. SFAS 141
requires that the purchase method of accounting be used for all business
combinations initiated after June 30, 2001. Under SFAS 142, amortization of
goodwill, including goodwill recorded in past business combinations, will
discontinue upon adoption of this standard. In addition, goodwill recorded as a
result of business combinations completed during the six-month period ending
December 31, 2001 will not be amortized. All goodwill and intangible assets will
be tested for impairment in accordance with the provisions of the Statement. The

Quarterly Review
Consolidated net sales for the quarter ended July 28, 2001 increased $15,418
over the same period a year ago. The increase in metal and dinnerware product
sales is attributable to the acquisition of the Delco flatware offering in the
second half of 2000 and the Viners flatware and Sakura dinnerware product lines
in June of 2000. The slowdown in consumer spending negatively affected domestic
sales through consumer channels, which decreased by 5.8% from the same quarter
last year. Sales in domestic foodservice markets increased 30.6% over the second
quarter of 2000, primarily attributable to the Delco acquisition. Domestic
foodservice sales totaled 49.1% of the Company's sales in the current quarter.
During the same period, international sales grew by 25.1%, primarily due to the
Viners acquisition, accounting for 17.3% of the Company's total second quarter
sales.

Gross margin as a percentage of net sales was 35.0% in the second quarter of
2001 as compared to 36.5% for the same period of 2000. The decrease in gross
margin this quarter is due to product mix changes related to the above
referenced downturn in consumer sales in 2001. To meet the lower demand, the
Company's manufacturing plants operated at a lower capacity in the current
quarter, generating unfavorable variances.

Total operating expenses increased by $4,358, or 14.6%, from the same quarter
last year due to the inclusion of the three acquisitions that took place in the
late second and third quarters of 2000. As a percentage of sales, operating
expenses remained flat with the same quarter last year at 28.6%.

During the second and third quarters of 2000, the Company recorded restructuring
and unusual charges totaling $39,000. Included in this total was an inventory
writedown of $24,000 related to product rationalization as a result of recent
acquisitions as well as significant other stock keeping unit reductions. The
Company established a $24,000 inventory reserve in the second quarter of 2000,
approximately half of which was utilized through the most recent year end. In
the second quarter of the current year, another $3,400 of the reserve was
utilized to dispose of excess and discontinued product.

                                 (In Thousands)

The remainder of the restructuring costs accrued of $15,000 related primarily to
the consolidation of sales, marketing, logistics and administrative functions,
realignment of product lines, "make versus buy" decisions and the impairment of
certain manufacturing and procurement assets. All assets identified as impaired
were written down by $5,000 to their net realizable value in the prior year.
Other restructuring payments made to date totaled $8,700, of which $1,200 was
paid in the current quarter.

There were no significant adjustments made to the original accruals for
restructuring and unusual charges.

Interest expense, prior to capitalized interest, was $6,065 for the quarter
ended July 28, 2001, an increase of $1,715 from the second quarter of 2000.
This increase is due to higher average borrowings incurred in the current
quarter. The increase in debt levels is attributable to the funding of the
acquisitions made by the Company in 2000.

Year to date review
Consolidated net sales for the six months ended July 28, 2001 increased $24,023
over the same period a year ago. The increase in metal and dinnerware product
sales is attributable to the acquisition of the Delco flatware offering in the
second half of 2000 and the Viners flatware and Sakura dinnerware product lines
in June of 2000. Increases from the Company's 2000 acquisitions were somewhat
offset by declines in the Company's core businesses, particularly in all
consumer product markets. Year to date, sales of domestic consumer products have
declined 11.3% over the same period last year. Due to the Delco acquisition,
domestic foodservice sales now account for slightly less than one-half of the
Company's 2001 sales. Sales to domestic foodservice customers have increased by
30.4% over the first half of 2000. International sales increased by 23.6%, to
$42,444 from the same period last year, primarily due to the Viners acquisition.

Gross margin as a percentage of net sales for the first six months of the
current year was 33.8% as compared to 37.7% for the same period of 2000. This
decrease in gross margin is primarily related to a slowdown in consumer product
sales in 2001. These products tend to yield a higher gross margin than
foodservice sales. In addition, to match the lower demand while still decreasing
inventories, the Company's production facilities have been operating at a lower
capacity than in 2000, thus generating negative manufacturing variances.

Total operating expenses increased by $7,074, or 11.6%, over the first six
months of the prior year due to the inclusion of the three acquisitions that
took place in the late second and third quarters of 2000. As a percentage of
sales, operating expenses were 27.7% in the current year to date, compared to
27.5% in 2000. The Company completed the integration of the Delco operations
into its existing foodservice operations in the first quarter of 2001. This has
lowered fixed operating costs and should continue to do so over the course of
the rest of this year.

During the second and third quarters of 2000, the Company recorded restructuring
and unusual charges totaling $39,000. Included in this total was an inventory
writedown of $24,000 related to product rationalization as a result of recent
acquisitions as well as significant other stock keeping unit reductions. The
Company established a $24,000 inventory reserve in the first half of 2000,
approximately half of which was utilized through the most recent year end. In
the current year, another $8,300 of the reserve was utilized to dispose of
excess and discontinued product.

                                 (In Thousands)

The remainder of the restructuring costs accrued of $15,000 related primarily to
the consolidation of sales, marketing, logistics and administrative functions,
realignment of product lines, "make versus buy" decisions and the impairment of
certain manufacturing and procurement assets. Of these costs, $8,000 were
expensed in first half of 2000. All assets identified as impaired were written
down by $5,000 to their net realizable value in the prior year. Other
restructuring payments made to date totaled $8,700, of which $2,200 was paid in
the current year. There were no significant adjustments made to the original
accruals for restructuring and unusual charges.

Interest expense, prior to capitalized interest, was $13,277 for the six months
ended July 28, 2001, an increase of $5,852 from the second quarter of 2000. This
increase is due to higher average borrowings outstanding in 2001, attributable
to the funding of the acquisitions made by the Company in 2000.

Liquidity & Financial Resources

A prime objective of the Company in 2001 is to strengthen its balance sheet and
reduce debt. During the first half of 2001, continual significant progress has
been made toward attaining these goals. Year to date, inventories has been
reduced by $19,000, while debt and current liabilities have declined by $21,600.
The Company spent approximately $5,700 on capital projects focused primarily on
its manufacturing facilities and retail fixturing. Capital spending for the
remainder of 2001 is anticipated to be approximately $3,500.

Included in the long-term debt caption on the balance sheet are various senior
notes. The note agreements relating thereto contain provisions which, among
other things require maintenance of certain financial ratios related to levels
of indebtedness, minimum net worth and interest coverage levels. The covenants
limit certain types of payments including dividends and investments. At July 28,
2001, the maximum amount available for payment of dividends was $3,269.

During the first quarter of 2001, the Company was not in compliance with certain
of its debt covenants. The lenders waived violation of these covenants and
amended the covenants to agreed upon levels. The Company collateralized its debt
with all domestic assets (excluding real estate holdings) and a majority of its
investment in Oneida UK. The Company is currently in compliance with all
financial covenants.

Management believes there is sufficient liquidity to support the Company's
ongoing funding requirements from future operations as well as the availability
of bank lines of credit. Working capital was $208,238 as of July 28, 2001.

New Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board approved Statements of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 141 "Business Combinations" ("SFAS 141") and
No. 142 "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets" ("SFAS 142") which are effective
June 30, 2001 and December 31, 2001 respectively, for the Corporation. SFAS 141
requires that the purchase method of accounting be used for all business
combinations initiated after June 30, 2001. Under SFAS 142, amortization of
goodwill, including goodwill recorded in past business combinations, will
discontinue upon adoption of this standard. In addition, goodwill recorded as a
result of business combinations completed during the six-month period ending
December 31, 2001 will not be amortized. All goodwill and intangible assets will
be tested for impairment in accordance with the provisions of the Statement. The
Corporation is currently reviewing the provisions of SFAS 141 and SFAS 142 and
assessing the impact of adoption.
