GIANT GROUP, LTD.NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS(Unaudited) (Dollars in thousands, except per share amounts)

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements concerning a number of risks and uncertainties involving GIANT GROUP, LTD. (herein
referred to as the Company, Registrant or GIANT). Forward-looking statements contain Company strategies, plans or intentions and may be identified by words such as believes, expects,
predicts or could. Several factors, outside the control of the Company, may cause actual results to differ materially from those discussed in forward-looking statements. These factors include (1) availability of adequate
working capital, (2) changing market value of the Companys investments, (3) outcome of litigation, (4) development and implementation of the Companys business plan and (5) changes in federal or state tax laws.  In addition,
forward-looking statements are dependent on Company-made assumptions and estimates that may not be correct. The Company believes that forward-looking statements, as part of this Form 10-Q, contain strategies, plans or intentions that are reasonable;
however, the Company cannot give any assurance that the strategies, plans or intentions will be achieved.

1.          Basis of
Presentation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance
with Form 10-Q instructions and in the opinion of management contain all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring accruals) necessary to present fairly the financial position as of September 30, 2002 and the results of operations and cash
flows for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2001 and 2002.  These results have been determined on the basis of generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America and practices applied consistently with those used
in the preparation of the Companys 2001 Annual Report on Form 10-K.  Certain 2001 amounts have been reclassified to conform to the 2002 presentation.  Operating results for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2002 are not
necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year. The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes in the Companys 2001
Annual Report on Form 10-K.

2.          Marketable Securities

At December 31, 2001 and September 30, 2002, the Company owned 757,283 and 977,999 shares of Checkers Drive-In Restaurants, Inc.
(Checkers) common stock, approximately 7% and 8% of Checkers total outstanding common stock. The market value of these shares, based on the closing price on these respective dates, was $4,642 and $7,824, representing approximately
75% and 94% of the Companys total liquidity.

In April 2002, the Company paid $712 in cash to exercise 237,416
warrants to purchase Checkers common stock at $3.00 per share. In May 2002, the Company sold 16,700 shares of Checkers common stock on the open market, received net proceeds of  $207 and recognized a gain of  $145.

On October 16, 2002, Checkers announced that net income for the third quarter ended September 9, 2002 increased to $2,686 from $452 in the
prior quarter. Revenue for the third quarter of 2002 increased 11.6% to $42.4 million from $37.9 million in the third quarter of 2001, due to higher comparable store sales and the reacquisition of franchise restaurants. In addition, overall
restaurant operating margins increased 5% for the third quarter of 2002 over the third quarter of 2001 due to timelier decisions on product movement and labor scheduling resulting from the new system-wide POS

opinion on the motions to dismiss.  In its decision, the Court denied Mr. Sands motion to dismiss and Arthur Andersen and Richard Salutes motion to dismiss related to the Companys allegations of breach of contract and
professional malpractice. The Court did grant Friedman and Harriett Greenbergs motion to dismiss, granted L.H. Friends motion to dismiss for lack of personal jurisdiction, and granted Arthur Andersen and Richard Salutes motion to
dismiss related to the Companys allegations of fraud, constructive fraud and negligent misrepresentation.

The
Company filed a Motion to Reargue the dismissal of the defendants pursuant to the Courts April 16, 2002 ruling.   The Company also filed a Motion for Permission To File a First Amended Complaint.   The proposed First
Amended Complaint would assert new causes of action against all the remaining defendants and L.H. Friend, including breach of fiduciary duty, conspiracy and for aiding-and-abetting a breach of fiduciary duty.   A hearing on these motions
was held on October 10, 2002 and the Court has indicated that it would attempt to issue a decision by December 2002.  A status conference has been scheduled to take place on December 12, 2002.

The Company has now issued discovery to the remaining defendants and it has subpoenaed documents from third parties.   It also seeks to
take the depositions of several individuals, including Glenn Sands and Richard Salute.   Discovery proceedings will continue for the next several months.

Management is unable to predict the outcome of this matter at the present time.

On or about May 31, 2002, the Trustee administering the bankruptcy of Periscope Sportswear, Inc. (Periscope) filed an adversary action
in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York (Bankruptcy Court) against GIANT, Burt Sugarman and David Gotterer. This adversary action seeks recovery of certain allegedly inappropriate payments made or
owing to GIANT before and after Periscope filed for bankruptcy in November 2000. The total sum sought in this adversary action is approximately $3,978. GIANT et al. filed an Answer to this adversary action on or about June 28, 2002, denying the
allegations and demanding strict proof thereof.

funds to the Trustee: approximately $404 which Century is currently holding on the Companys behalf; approximately $171 as these funds become available under the October 2000 agreement, between Century and GIANT
and divide $1,450 equally between the Trustee and the Company as the funds become available under the October 2000 agreement between Century and GIANT. In the opinion of GIANTs management, this settlement will not have any material adverse
effect on the Companys consolidated financial position and results of operations.

In addition, under this
settlement, the Trustee will permit GIANT to file a Proof of Claim of up to $1,050 is to the amounts paid to the Trustee as set forth in the previous paragraph.

Mittman, et al. v. Rallys
Hamburgers, Inc., et al. (Civ. No.C-94-0039-L(CS))

There were no material developments since the disclosure of this
litigation in the Companys annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2001.

4.          Comprehensive Income
(Expense)

The changes in components of comprehensive income for the nine months ended September 30, 2001 and
2002 are as follows:

Management believes no
income taxes should be recorded for the Companys unrealized gains on marketable securities due to the Companys Federal and State net operating loss carry forwards.

5.          Repricing of Stock Options

On February 1, 2002, the Company adopted a plan for the exchange of stock options to purchase Common Stock. Under this plan, option holders were
given the opportunity to exchange their options for a fewer number of options at an exercise price of $0.45, the closing price on February 1, 2002. The expiration date remains the same as the date prior to the exchange. The plan was approved by the
Executive and Compensation Committee of the Board.

On February 1, 2002, options to purchase approximately 2,076,000
shares of Common Stock were exchanged for options to purchase approximately 1,107,000 shares of Common Stock. For the nine-months ended September 30, 2002, the Company recorded compensation expense of approximately $393 related to the repricing of
the stock options.

During the 2nd quarter of 2002, the Company received proceeds of $17 from the exercise of  37,500 stock options by certain Directors of

Purchase Rights for $0.50 net per share (Tender Offer). The Company intended to deregister its shares under the Exchange Act and become a private company if the number of stockholders numbered less than 300 after the Tender Offer was

|ITEM 2. | MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.  (Dollars in thousands except per share amount)
|------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Results of Operations for the Three-Months Ended September 30, 2002 Versus September 30, 2001

Total costs and expenses for the three-months ended September 30, 2002 decreased $246 to $41 from $287 for the comparable period in 2001.

General and administrative expenses for the three-months ended September 30, 2002 increased $33 to $312 from $279 for
the comparable 2001 period. In the current quarter, an increase in professional fees and rent due to the adjustment of current year accruals was offset by a decrease in insurance premiums.

For the three-months ended September 30, 2002, the Company recorded non-cash income of $278 related to the February 2002 repricing of the
Companys stock options. This resulted from the reduction of the Companys stock price during the current quarter compared to the second quarter of 2002.

Other income for the three-months ended September 30, 2002 decreased $159 to $15 from $174 in the comparable 2001 period.  In 2002, the Company
recorded lower interest income of $50 due to the sale of a bond investment accounted for as a trading security and a loss of $13 related to sale of marketable securities, compared to a gain of $96 in 2001.

Results of Operations for the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2002 Versus September 30, 2001

Total costs and expenses for the nine-months ended September 30, 2002 increased $181 to $1,363 from $1,182 for the comparable period in 2001.

General and administrative expenses for the nine-months ended September 30, 2002 decreased $120 to $949 from $1,069 for
the comparable 2001 period, primarily due to lower insurance premiums of $103, primarily related to the decrease in Directors and Officers liability coverage, and lower corporate office salaries, taxes, & employee health insurance of  $80.
These decreases were offset by an increase in legal expenses of $63, primarily due to the Periscope bankruptcy litigation.

For the nine-months ended September 30, 2002, the Company recorded a non-cash expense of $393 related to the February 2002 repricing of the
Companys stock options. For the nine-months ended September 30, 2001, one-time costs of $88 were recorded related to the Companys Tender Offer.

Other income for the nine-months ended September 30, 2002 decreased $41 to $204 from $245 in the comparable 2001 period. In 2002, the Company
recorded higher interest income of $23 and income of $20 related to the gain on the sales of marketable securities. In 2001, the Company recorded higher revenue from litigation resolved in 2000 of $85.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash and cash equivalents and marketable
securities at September 30, 2002 increased $2,129 to $8,329 compared with $6,200 at December 31, 2001. The increase in liquidity resulted primarily from the appreciation of the Companys investment in Checkers common stock of $2,531, offset by
the Companys use of cash for current operating expenses. The Companys working capital increased $1,651 to $8,224 at September 30, 2002 from $6,573 at December 31, 2001.

Cash and cash equivalents, marketable securities and investment income provide the Companys current liquidity.  Management believes that
this liquidity is sufficient for the Company to fund its current operating expenses.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations discusses the Company's consolidated financial statements,
which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the
reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. On an on-going basis, management evaluates its estimates and judgments,
including those related to revenue recognition, intangible assets, financing operations, and contingencies and litigation. Management bases its estimates and judgments on historical experience and on various other factors that are believed to be
reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under
different assumptions or conditions. The most significant accounting estimates inherent in the preparation of the Company's consolidated financial statements include estimates as to the appropriate carrying value of certain assets and liabilities
which are not readily apparent from other sources, primarily accruals for expenses related to GIANT operating as a public company and other costs. These accounting policies are described at relevant sections in this discussion and analysis and in
the notes to the consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2001.

|ITEM 3. | QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
|------- | ----------------------------------------------------------

The Companys primary financial instruments consist of equity securities and money market funds paying interest at varying interest
rates.  The Companys market risk is the potential decrease in the value of the Companys financial instruments resulting from lower market prices.  The Company does not enter into derivatives for trading or interest rate
exposure. The Company attempts to make prudent and informed business decisions before investing in equity securities.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2002, the Company sold its remaining investment in corporate debt securities. The Companys
remaining financial instruments and related market risk remained unchanged.  At September 30, 2002, the market value of the Companys primary financial instrument, its holdings of 977,999 shares of Checkers common stock, represents 94% of
the Companys total liquidity.

|ITEM 4. | CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
|------- | -----------------------

Based on the evaluation of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures by Burt Sugarman, the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Pasquale A.
Ambrogio, the Company's Chief Financial Officer, as of a date within 90 days of the filing date of this quarterly report, such officers have concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures are effective in ensuring that information
required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time period specified by the Securities and
Exchange Commission's rules and forms.

There were no significant changes in the Company's internal controls or in other
factors that could significantly affect these controls subsequent to the date of their evaluation, including any corrective actions with regard to significant deficiencies and material weaknesses.
