                 PANAMERICAN BEVERAGES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
             NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
       (Balances in the tables are stated in thousands of U.S. dollars,
                          except per share amounts)
                                  (Unaudited)


(1)  BASIS OF PRESENTATION

     The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included herein
     have been prepared by Panamerican Beverages, Inc. (the "Company"), in
     accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange
     Commission (the "SEC"). In the opinion of management, these unaudited
     condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments,
     which are of a normal recurring nature, necessary to present fairly the
     Company's consolidated financial position as of March 31, 2002 and
     December 31, 2001, and the consolidated results of operations for the
     three months ended March 31, 2002 and 2001. Certain information and
     footnote disclosures normally included in consolidated financial
     statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
     principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules and
     regulations of the SEC. These unaudited financial statements should be
     read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and the notes
     thereto included in the Company's 2001 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed
     with the SEC on April 1, 2002. The Company has made no significant
     changes in accounting policies from those reflected in the consolidated
     financial statements included in the 2001 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

     The financial statements of the Venezuelan subsidiary for all periods
     have been remeasured into U.S. dollars, the reporting and functional
     currency, in accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board
     ("FASB") Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 52,
     "Foreign Currency Translation", as it applies to highly inflationary
     economies. The functional currencies of the remaining subsidiaries are
     the Mexican peso, Brazilian real, Colombian peso, Costa Rican colon,
     Nicaraguan cordova and Guatemalan quetzal, which financial statements
     have been translated using the current rate translation method and the
     resulting translation adjustments are included in accumulated other
     comprehensive income (loss), which is a component of shareholders'
     equity. As of December 31, 2001, the Company discontinued classifying
     Colombia as a highly inflationary economy, and, accordingly, the
     functional currency of the Colombian operations was changed from the U.S.
     dollar to the Colombian peso. For the three months ended March 31, 2002
     and 2001, the Company recorded in its condensed consolidated statements
     of operations a net translation gain of $6.5 million and $3.0 million,
     respectively.


(2)  NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS AND PRONOUNCEMENTS

     Reclassifications have been made in the 2001 condensed consolidated
     statements of operations to conform to classifications used in the
     current year, in accordance with Emerging Issues Task Force ("EITF") No.
     00-25, "Vendor Income Statement Characterization of Consideration to a
     Purchaser of the Vendor's Products or Services." EITF 00-25 became
     effective for the Company beginning January 1, 2002, and requires certain
     promotional payments made to customers by the Company, that were
     previously classified as selling and distribution expenses, to be
     classified as a reduction from net sales. The Company reclassified as a
     reduction from net sales approximately $3.2 million of selling expenses,
     which were previously classified as selling and distribution expenses in
     the condensed consolidated statements of operations for the period ended
     March 30, 2001.

     In June 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 142, "Goodwill and Other
     Intangible Assets," which requires goodwill to be tested for impairment
     and written down when impaired, rather than being amortized over useful
     lives, as previous standards required. SFAS No. 142 became effective for
     the Company beginning January 1, 2002.

                 PANAMERICAN BEVERAGES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
             NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
       (Balances in the tables are stated in thousands of U.S. dollars,
                          except per share amounts)
                                  (Unaudited)


     Had the Company adopted SFAS No. 142 on the first day of 2001, first
     quarter 2001 amortization expense would have been lowered by $6.6 million
     and net income would have increased $6.2 million (or $0.05 per diluted
     share) to $27.5 million.


(3)  EARNINGS (LOSS) PER SHARE

     In accordance with SFAS No. 128, "Earnings per Share," basic earnings per
     common share calculations are determined by dividing earnings available
     to common shareholders by the weighted average number of shares of common
     stock. Diluted earnings per share are determined by dividing earnings
     available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of shares
     of common stock and dilutive common stock equivalents outstanding,
     related to outstanding stock options and nonvested stock grants.

     Following is a reconciliation of the weighted average number of shares
     outstanding with the number of shares used in the computation of diluted
     earnings (loss) per share:

     The Company declared and paid cash dividends of $0.06 per share of common
     stock for the three months ended March 31, 2002.


(4)  REORGANIZATION PROGRAMS

     During 2000, the Company implemented company-wide reorganization programs
     designed to improve productivity and strengthen the Company's competitive
     position in the beverage industry. As of March 31, 2002, approximately
     7,700 employees have been terminated by the Company relating to the
     reorganization programs implemented during 2000. Balances related to
     accrued facilities reorganization costs of $5.3 million and $6.5 million
     are reflected in Other accrued liabilities and $6.0 million is reflected
     in Other long-term liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance
     sheets at March 31, 2002 and December 31, 2001, respectively. The
     decrease in accrued facilities reorganization costs during the three
     months ended March 31, 2002 is related to the continued implementation of
     the reorganization programs.

(5)  NONRECURRING ITEMS

     During the first quarter of 2002, the Company recorded a gain on the sale
     of its 12.1% equity stake in Cervejarias Kaiser, S.A. ("Kaiser") as part
     of a larger transaction in which Molson, Inc. acquired Kaiser and entered
     into a partnership with Heineken. The sale generated proceeds which
     include approximately $55.1 million reflected within accounts receivable
     and $18.9 million in Molson stock recorded as an investment (the Molson
     stock received by the Company cannot be sold for a period of two years
     pending the resolution of certain tax contingencies in Brazil, which
     management is of the opinion that will be resolved in a manner favorable
     to the Company), and resulted in a gain of $48.6 million, which is included
     as part of Other income (expense), net. The Company will continue to
     distribute Kaiser products in its franchise areas in Brazil and the
     acquisition of Kaiser will not impact this distribution agreement.

     During the first quarter, the Company also had nonrecurring charges, net
     of benefits, approximating $16.6 million, of which $11.6 million is
     classified as cash charges and $5.0 is classified as noncash charges. The
     cash charges primarily relate to severance payments for the termination
     of approximately 600 employees in Mexico and Venezuela and to the payment
     of excise taxes on soft drink inventories containing high fructose corn
     syrup in Mexico. The payment of the excise taxes resulted from a law that
     was suspended shortly after it was initiated. The Company has initiated
     legal proceedings to seek that the amounts already paid be refunded. The
     noncash charges primarily relate to the closure of plants in Venezuela
     and to the sale, at a loss, of the corporate airplane to a related party.
     The gain on the sale of Kaiser and the total nonrecurring charges, net
     benefits, had a combined positive after-tax impact on net income of $35.7
     million.

     On April 22, 2002, the Company sold its corporate airplane for $10.5
     million to a trust affiliated with a director of the Company. In
     connection with this transaction, the Company terminated the operating
     lease for the airplane by payment to the lending bank of $14.9 million
     representing the amount outstanding under the lease. The Company believes
     the terms of this transaction were no less favorable to the Company than
     could have been obtained from an unaffiliated third party.

(10) DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS

     SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging
     Activities," and SFAS No. 138, "Accounting for Certain Derivative
     Instruments and Certain Hedging Activities - an amendment of FASB
     Statement No. 133," became effective for the Company on January 1, 2001.

     The Company had a floating-to-fixed interest rate swap (the "Swap"),
     expiring in November 2002, with a total notional amount outstanding at
     December 31, 2001 of $250.0 million, which exchanges LIBOR for a fixed
     interest rate of 6.437%. Upon adoption of SFAS No. 133, the Company
     designated the Swap as a cash flow hedge. During 2001, the Company
     determined that it was probable that the original forecasted transaction
     would not continue through the expiration of the Swap and, therefore,
     discontinued cash flow hedge accounting. During the quarter ended March
     31, 2002, the Company recognized an unrealized holding gain, amounting to
     $0.2 million, included in Other income (expense), net in the Company's
     condensed consolidated statements of operations. As of March 31, 2002,
     the fair value of the Swap was $7.5 million recorded in Other accrued
     liabilities.

     The Company uses currency swap arrangements to hedge exchange rate
     exposure arising from the Company's operations in its international
     subsidiaries. On December 28, 2001, the Company entered into foreign
     currency forward purchase contracts, expiring during the first quarter of
     2002, with total notional amounts of approximately $23.5 million, which
     exchange Brazilian reales for U.S. dollars. During the first quarter of
     2002, the Company realized losses amounting to approximately $0.3 million
     recorded in Cost of sales in the Company's condensed consolidated
     statements of operations. On February 28, 2002, the Company entered into
     foreign currency forward purchase contracts, expiring during the second
     quarter of 2002, with total notional amounts of approximately $16.6
     million, which exchange Brazilian reales for U.S. dollars. As of March
     31, 2002, the fair value of these foreign currency forward purchase
     contracts was $0.5 million recorded in Other accrued liabilities with the
     change in fair value recorded in Accumulated other comprehensive loss.

(11) SEGMENTS AND RELATED INFORMATION

     The Company operates in the bottling and distribution industries and in
     markets throughout Latin America. The basis for determining the Company's
     operating segments is the manner in which financial information is used
     by the Company in its operations. Management operates and organizes
     itself according to business units, which comprise the Company's products
     across geographic locations. The Company evaluates performance and
     allocates resources based on income or loss from operations. The
     accounting policies of the reportable segments are the same as those
     described in the summary of significant accounting policies. Long-lived
     assets constitute total assets less current assets less long-term
     deferred income taxes less long-term receivables from affiliated
     companies. Balances reflected in Corporate include eliminating entries
     that are used in consolidating the unaudited financial statements.

     Relevant information concerning the geographic areas in which the Company
     operates in accordance with SFAS No. 131, "Disclosures about Segments of
     an Enterprise and Related Information," is as follows:

ITEM 2.   MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
          RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

GENERAL

     The following discussion addresses the financial condition and results of
operations of Panamerican Beverages, Inc. ("Panamco" or "we") and its
consolidated subsidiaries. This discussion should be read in conjunction with
our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as of March 31, 2002
and December 31, 2001 and for the three months ended March 31, 2002 and 2001
and the notes thereto included elsewhere herein. Results for any interim
period are not necessarily indicative of results for any full year.

     We conduct our operations through tiers of subsidiaries in which, in some
cases, minority shareholders hold interests. Since we have varying percentage
ownership interests in our approximately 60 consolidated subsidiaries, the
amount of the minority interest in income or loss before minority interest
during a period depends upon the revenues and expenses of each of the
consolidated subsidiaries and the percentage of each of such subsidiary's
capital stock owned by minority shareholders during such period.

     In 1998, the "Panamco Central America" group was created, which consists
of Panamco Costa Rica, Panamco Nicaragua and Panamco Guatemala. Prior to the
second quarter of 2001, the financial condition and results of operations of
these three companies were previously reported together in the financial
statements entitled Panamco Central America. In February 1999, the North Latin
American Division ("NOLAD") was created, which consists of Panamco Mexico and
Panamco Central America. The results of operations of Panamco Mexico and
Panamco Central America are reported together as Panamco NOLAD.

     Unit case means 192 ounces of finished beverage product (24 eight-ounce
servings). Average sales prices per unit case means net sales in U.S. dollars
for the period divided by the number of unit cases sold during the same
period. Cash operating profit means operating income plus depreciation and
amortization and noncash nonrecurring items.

     We have made no significant changes in accounting policies from those
reflected in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended
December 31, 2001.

     Forward-looking statements, contained in this document include the amount
of future capital expenditures and the possible uses of proceeds from any
future borrowings. The words believes, intends, expects, anticipates,
projects, estimates, predicts, and similar expressions are also intended to
identify forward-looking statements. Such statements, estimates, and
projections reflect various assumptions by our management, concerning
anticipated results and are subject to significant business, economic and
competitive uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are beyond our
control. Factors that could cause results to differ include, but are not
limited to, changes in the soft drink business environment, including actions
of competitors and changes in consumer preference, changes in governmental
laws and regulations, including income taxes, market demand for new and
existing products, raw material prices and devaluation of local currencies
against the U.S. dollar. Accordingly, we cannot assure you that such
statements, estimates and projections will be realized. The forecasts and
actual results will likely vary and those variations may be material. We make
no representation or warranty as to the accuracy or completeness of such
statements, estimates or projections contained in this document or that any
forecast contained herein will be achieved. Additional information concerning
such factors is contained in our Registration Statement on Form S-8 as filed
with the Securities Exchange Commission ("SEC") on July 23, 2001, and the
Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2001 as
well as other documents filed with the SEC, all of which are available from
the SEC.


THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2002 COMPARED TO THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2001

     Net sales for the first quarter ended March 31, 2002 decreased 3.2% to
$624.3 million from $644.8 million in the 2001 first quarter. Net sales were
negatively impacted by a consolidated unit case sales decrease

                                      16





of 4.8% compared to the 2001 period, the devaluation of the Venezuelan bolivar
and the continued deterioration of the economy in that country. In January
2002, we implemented a policy to raise prices in the territories in which we
operate in Brazil. The result was a decline in volumes and an increase in
operating profit margins from the levels achieved in the fourth quarter 2001.
During the 2002 quarter, improved execution resulted in the resumption of net
sales and volume growth in the NOLAD region of 8.3% and 3.3%, respectively.

     Cost of sales as a percentage of net sales increased slightly to 49.6%
during the first quarter of 2002 from 49.0% in the 2001 period. This increase
was mainly the result of an increase in the cost of raw materials and
packaging throughout most operations, especially in Venezuela where the
devaluation of the Venezuelan Bolivar resulted in more costly U.S.
dollar-denominated raw materials purchases, as well as a continuous change in
product mix towards non-returnables. At the beginning of 2002, the Mexican
Government introduced an excise tax of 20% on fructose-based soft drinks and
on carbonated water. In March 2002, this tax was suspended until September 30,
2002. The impact of this tax was a nonrecurring nonoperating charge to reflect
the tax paid on the inventory of products containing high fructose. The
reinstatement of this tax, or any increase in the excise or other taxes on the
sale of our products, will adversely affect our sales volumes and
profitability to the extent that we are unable to pass the full amount of any
such increase to consumers.

     Gross profit as a percentage of net sales decreased slightly to 50.4%
during the first quarter of 2002 from 51.0% in the first quarter of 2001,
mainly the result of a higher cost of raw materials and packaging.

     The following comparison of Panamco's first quarter 2002 and 2001
consolidated results of operations excludes the effect of the sale of Kaiser
and other nonrecurring items during the first quarter of 2002 totalling $35.7
million, net of the related tax benefit of $3.7 million. See "Nonrecurring
Items / Reorganization Programs" and Note 5 of "Notes to Condensed
Consolidated Financial Statements" for further discussion on Panamco's
nonrecurring items.

     Operating expenses as a percentage of net sales decreased to 39.4% during
the first quarter of 2002 from 41.2% in the 2001 period, mainly due to lower
goodwill amortization as a result of adopting SFAS No. 142, "Goodwill and
Other Intangible Assets" as well as a 16.7% reduction in depreciation expense,
primarily the result of lower property and equipment balances.

     Operating income increased 10.0% to $68.9 million during the first
quarter of 2002 from $62.7 million in the 2001 period, primarily the result of
lower goodwill amortization as a result of adopting SFAS No. 142. Operating
income during the quarter was negatively impacted by the currency devaluation
in Venezuela and by the deteriorating macroeconomic conditions in that
country. Price increases in order to reduce the impact of the devaluation
resulted in loss of market share. The devaluation of the bolivar increases the
relative price of U.S. dollar-denominated raw materials of Panamco Venezuela and
decreases its U.S. dollar-reported net sales (and other financial statement
accounts, including net income). Unit case volumes may be adversely affected
to the extent of a continued slowdown in the Venezuelan economy. Excluding
Venezuela, operating income increased 25.6% from a year ago. Cash operating
profit decreased 7.6% to $113.6 million in 2002 from $122.9 million in the
first quarter of 2001. Excluding Venezuela, cash operating profit for the
quarter increased 2.4% from a year ago. In January 2002, we implemented a
policy to raise prices in the territories in which we operate in Brazil. The
result was a decline in volumes and an increase in operating profit margins
from the levels achieved in the fourth quarter 2001.

     Net interest expense decreased 15.7% to $19.9 million during the first
quarter of 2002 from $23.6 million in the 2001 period, mainly resulting from
the combination of a 30.6% reduction in gross interest expense to $22.6
million, which was partially offset by a 69.6% reduction in interest income.
The reduction in interest expense is the result of a $201.9 million reduction
in gross debt on a year over year basis.

     Other income increased to $5.6 million during the first quarter of 2002
from an expense of $2.2 million in the 2001 period, primarily the result of a
$0.8 million foreign exchange gain during this quarter compared to a $6.5
million foreign exchange loss, mainly in Brazil, in the same quarter a year
ago.

                                      17





     The consolidated effective income tax rate increased slightly to 38.7%
during the first quarter of 2002 from 38.1% in the 2001 period.

     As a result of the foregoing, Panamco recorded net income of $32.5
million during the first quarter of 2002, or $0.27 per basic and diluted
share, compared to net income of $21.3 million, or $0.17 per basic share
($0.16 on a diluted basis), during the 2001 period.


NONRECURRING ITEMS / REORGANIZATION PROGRAMS

     During the first quarter of 2002, Panamco recorded a gain on the sale of
its 12.1% equity stake in Kaiser as part of a larger transaction in which
Molson, Inc. acquired Kaiser and entered into a partnership with Heineken. The
sale generated proceeds which include approximately $55.1 million reflected
within accounts receivable and $18.9 million in Molson stock recorded as an
investment (the Molson stock received by Panamco cannot be sold for a period
of two years pending the resolution of certain tax contingencies in Brazil,
which management is of the opinion that will be resolved in a manner favorable
to Panamco), and resulted in a gain of $48.6 million, which is included as
part of Other income (expense), net. We will continue to distribute Kaiser
products in our franchise areas in Brazil and the acquisition of Kaiser will
not impact this distribution agreement. During the first quarter, Panamco also
had nonrecurring charges, net of benefits, approximating $16.6 million, of
which $11.6 million is classified as cash charges and $5.0 is classified as
noncash charges. The cash charges primarily relate to severance payments for
the termination of approximately 600 employees in Mexico and Venezuela and to
the payment of excise taxes on soft drink inventories containing high fructose
corn syrup in Mexico. The payment of the excise taxes resulted from a law that
was suspended shortly after it was initiated. Panamco has initiated legal
proceedings to seek that the amounts already paid be refunded. The noncash
charges primarily relate to the closure of plants in Venezuela and to the
sale, at a loss, of the corporate airplane to a related party. The gain on the
sale of Kaiser and the total nonrecurring charges, net benefits, had a
combined positive after-tax impact on net income of $35.7 million.

     During 2000, Panamco implemented company-wide reorganization programs
designed to improve productivity and strengthen our competitive position in
the beverage industry. As of March 31, 2002, approximately 7,700 employees
have been terminated by Panamco relating to the reorganization programs
implemented during 2000. Balances related to accrued facilities reorganization
costs of $5.3 million and $6.5 million are reflected in Other accrued
liabilities and $6.0 million is reflected in Other long-term liabilities in
the condensed consolidated balance sheets at March 31, 2002 and December 31,
2001, respectively. The decrease in accrued facilities reorganization costs
during the three months ended March 31, 2002 is related to the continued
implementation of the reorganization programs.


LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

     Cash and cash equivalents decreased $43.3 million during the first three
months of 2002 from net cash transactions. Our primary sources of cash for the
first quarter of 2002 were proceeds from bank loans totalling $9.7 million and
proceeds from the sale of property, plant and equipment totalling $8.8 million.
Our primary uses of cash for the first quarter of 2002 were the payment of
bank loans and other long-term obligations totalling $17.3 million, capital
expenditures totalling $12.9 million, purchase of bottles and cases totalling
$8.6 million, payment of shareholder dividends totalling $7.3 million, and
share repurchases totalling $7.3 million. Cash flow used in operating
activities was $1.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2002 compared
to cash flow provided by operating activities of $81.1 million in the same
quarter a year ago, mainly due to a decrease in accounts payable of $60.1
million. At March 31, 2002, we had negative working capital of $92.9 million,
a 45% improvement compared to a negative working capital of $168.9 million as
of December 31, 2001. A working capital deficit is not unusual for us and does
not indicate a lack of liquidity. We continue to maintain adequate current
assets to satisfy current liabilities when they are due and have sufficient
liquidity and financial resources to manage our day-to-day cash needs.

     Total consolidated indebtedness decreased to $963.8 million at March 31,
2002, from $970.2 million at the end of 2001, consisting of $580.0 million at
the holding company level and $383.8 million of subsidiary

                                      18





indebtedness. Of the total debt, 88.0% is long-term. Our U.S. dollar-denominated
debt decreased to 65.8% at March 31, 2002 from 67.5% at the end of 2001.

     There has been no significant change in our contractual obligations
during the three months ended March 31, 2002. For a discussion of our
contractual obligations, refer to Item 7, "Management's Discussion and
Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" and "Notes to
Consolidated Financial Statements", contained in our Form 10-K for the year
ended December 31, 2001.

     At December 31, 2001, Panamco had completed the $100.0 million share
repurchase program adopted in 1999, increased to a total of $150.0 million by
two $25.0 million supplements in 2001 (the "1999 Share Repurchase Program").
In the first quarter of 2002, we adopted a new program (the "2002 Share
Repurchase Program") to repurchase up to $20.0 million of Panamco's Class A
Common Stock. During the first quarter of 2002, we repurchased 442,700 shares
for a total amount of $7.3 million under the 2002 Share Repurchase Program.

     During the first quarter of 2002, Panamco recorded a gain on the sale of
its 12.1% equity stake in Kaiser as part of a larger transaction in which
Molson, Inc. acquired Kaiser and entered into a partnership with Heineken. The
sale generated proceeds which include approximately $55.1 million reflected
within accounts receivable and $18.9 million in Molson stock recorded as an
investment.  We will continue to distribute Kaiser products in
our franchise areas in Brazil and the acquisition of Kaiser will not impact
this distribution agreement.

about Market Risk, contained in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31,
