FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS



GIANT GROUP, LTD.s (Company or GIANT) Form 10-Q for the first quarter ended March 31, 2004 contains forward-looking statements regarding
future events and our future results that are subject to the safe harbors created under the Securities Act of 1933 and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. These statements are based on current expectations, estimates, forecasts, and
projections about the business climate the Company operates in and the beliefs and assumptions of our management.



Forward-looking statements may be identified by words such as believes, considers, expects, predicts or could.
Risks and uncertainties, many outside GIANTs control, may cause actual results to differ materially from those discussed in forward-looking statements. These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to (1) availability of adequate
working capital, (2) changing market value of investments, (3) outcome of litigation, (4) development and implementation of the business plan, including financing, for the development and sale of real property (see subsequent events Note 3) and (5)
changes in federal or state tax laws.



GIANT is not under any obligation to
revise or update any forward-looking statement.



|1. | Basis of Presentation
|-- | ---------------------



The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions for Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. These results have
been determined on the basis of generally accepted accounting principles and practices accepted in the United States of America applied consistently with those used in the preparation of the Companys 2003 Annual Report on Form 10-K (2003
Annual Report). The results are also supported by managements use of assumptions, judgments and estimates.



In the opinion of management, all normal and recurring adjustments have been made to present fairly the financial position as of March 31, 2004 and the results of
operations and comprehensive income (loss) and cash flows for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2004 and 2003. The results of operations and comprehensive income (loss) for the three-month period ended March 31, 2004 are not necessarily
indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year. It is suggested that the accompanying unaudited financial statements be read in conjunction with the Financial Statements and Notes in the 2003 Annual Report.



Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior periods unaudited financial
statements to conform to the current periods unaudited financial statement presentation.



Investment Company Act



The Company
technically falls within the definition of an Investment Company under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (Investment Act). However, the Company is not engaged in the business of investing, re-investing or trading in securities.
Therefore, on July 28, 2003, the Company filed an

application (Application) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) for a temporary order exempting GIANT from all the provisions of the
Investment Act. On April 5, 2004, the SEC notified GIANT that it was unwilling to support the Companys Application. On April 16, 2004, GIANT notified the SEC that it has withdrawn the Application.



Stock-Based Compensation



The following table illustrates the effect on net loss and net loss per share if the Company
had applied the fair value recognition provisions of FASB Statement No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation. The weighted average fair values of the options granted during the quarter ended March 31, 2004 and 2003 are $2.95 and $1.01. The
fair value of each option grant is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes options-pricing model with the following weighted-average assumptions used for all grants in 2004 and 2003: zero dividend yield; expected volatility of 52% and
34%, risk-free interest rate of 3.64 and 4.8% and expected lives of 60 months for both periods.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Dollars in thousands, except per common share amounts)



This option valuation model requires input of highly subjective assumptions. The Companys employee and Director stock options have characteristics significantly
different from those of traded options and changes in the subjective input assumptions can materially affect the fair value estimate. Therefore, in managements opinion, this existing model does not necessarily provide a reliable single measure
of the fair value of its employee and Director stock options. Pro forma amounts presented here are based on actual earnings and consider only the effects of estimated fair values of stock options.



|2. | Commitments and Contingencies
|-- | -----------------------------



The Company is involved in three legal proceedings, which have been described in the Companys 2003 Annual Report on Form 10-K. The following changes to these legal
proceedings occurred during the three-months ended March 31, 2004:

Glenn Sands; Arthur Andersen LLP; Richard Salute; L.H. Friend, Weinress, Frankson & Presson, LLC a/k/a L.H. Friend, Weinress, Frankson & Presson, Inc.; Greg Presson; Friedman, Alpren & Green, LLP and Harriett Greenberg, Defendants



On April 20, 2004, the Court denied the motions L.H. Friend and Greg
Presson filed in December 2003, to stay this action pending the outcome of the California case. A trial date is scheduled for October 2004. Management is unable to predict the outcome of this matter.



GIANT GROUP, LTD. vs. L.H. Friend, Gregory Presson and Robert Campbell



L.H. Friend filed a Motion for Summary Judgment in the case on March
12, 2004. The Company responded on May 10, 2004 and argument is scheduled for May 26, 2004. The trial was to begin on June 30, 2004. However, at the request of the defendants counsel, the trial will begin on September 1, 2004. Management is
unable to predict the outcome of this matter.



|3. | Subsequent Event
|-- | ----------------



The Company is negotiating to acquire two lots in Montana near Yellowstone National Park on which it intends to develop and resell. In conjunction with this negotiation,
the Company will deliver approximately 435,000 shares of its ownership of the common stock of Checkers Drive-In Restaurants, Inc. to the seller of these two lots if purchased. The transaction is expected to close following such time as the Checkers
shares to be delivered by the Company are registered for resale under the Securities Act. Additionally, the Company is also negotiating to acquire three lots in the vicinity of Yellowstone National Park for development and resale.



In conjunction with these expected transactions, the Company has entered into a letter of
intent with a bank to obtain financing of approximately $8.0 million. This line will be secured by the Deed of Trust on the lots purchased and approximately 530,000 shares of Checkers Drive-In Restaurants. In addition, various bank covenants will
have to be met by the Company. If consummated, this line will expire on June 1, 2006 and will bear interest at 6% per annum. A one year extension will be provided if all the loan terms have been satisfied.



The Company believes that it will no longer fall within the definition of an investment
company under the Investment Act.

|------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



Critical Accounting Policies



Managements discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations discusses the Companys Balance Sheets as of March 31, 2004 and
December 31, 2003 and the Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income and Statements of Cash Flows for the three months ended March 31, 2004 and 2003 (Financial Statements) which have been prepared in accordance with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these Financial Statements and related footnotes (Notes) are supported by accounting policies, which may include managements use of assumptions,
judgments and estimates (collectively judgments). Management bases their judgment on historical experience and on various other factors, which management believes is reasonable under the circumstances. On an ongoing basis, management
evaluates its judgments related to revenue recognition and the appropriate carrying value of assets and liabilities. Actual results may differ materially from results reported in the Financial Statements and Notes, which are based on accounting
policies.



Management considers the following accounting policies as critical
in the preparation of the Financial Statements and Notes:



| |  | Recognition of other income, based on agreements and settlements of certain litigation, is recognized on a cash basis, due to the uncertainty of cash being received. If cash is
received before the Company reports its financial results for the period, income is accrued.
| | - | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  | The classification of marketable securities as available for sale.
| | - | ------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  | The measurement of the allowance for deferred tax assets.
| | - | ---------------------------------------------------------



Management believes these accounting policies are very important to the portrayal of the Companys financial condition and results of operations and require
managements most difficult, subjective or complex judgment, often resulting in the need to make estimates about the effect of such matters which are inherently uncertain. These accounting policies are described at relevant sections in
Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and in the Notes to the Financial Statements included in the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2003.



Results of Operations for the Three-Months Ended March 31, 2004
Versus March 31, 2003



EXPENSES



General and administrative expenses remained flat for the
three months ended March 31, 2004 compared to the comparable period in 2003. No category of expenses increased more than $8.



A non-cash expense for the exchange of stock options to purchase shares of Common Stock increased $751 to $760 for the three months ended March 31, 2004 compared to $9
for the comparable period in 2003. This increase is primarily due to the increase in the Companys stock price of $1.94 to $2.95 for the three months ended March 31, 2004 from $1.01 for the prior quarter.

|------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



OTHER INCOME



Investment and other income remained flat for the three months ended March 31, 2004 compared
to the prior period. The Company received $154 from Century for the current quarter compared to $175 from Glenn Sands to settle in full his obligation to the Company and recognized a loss on the sale of a marketable security of $26 in the comparable
2003 quarter.



Liquidity and Capital Resources



At March 31, 2004 and December 31, 2003, liquidity consisted primarily of cash,
receivables and marketable securities, consisting of approximately 978,000 shares of Checkers Drive-In Restaurants, Inc. (Checkers) common stock. In addition, management believes that cash of approximately $870 and $780, respectively,
may possibly be received over the next few years from the Bankruptcy Trustee and Century. The receipt of the cash by the Company is contingent upon the amount of cash received by the Bankruptcy Trustee and the amount of revenue received by Century
related to the sale of Periscope products by Alarmex. The Company cannot influence the future events that will ultimately resolve these contingencies.



Liquidity increased $1,555 to $13,344 at March 31, 2004 from $11,789 at December 31, 2003. This increase resulted primarily from the appreciation of $1,701 related to the
investment in Checkers common stock and receipt of $154 from Century offset by cash required for the payment of expenses and other costs.



The Company is negotiating to acquire two lots in Montana near Yellowstone National Park on which it intends to develop and resell. In conjunction with this negotiation,
the Company will deliver approximately 435,000 shares of its ownership of the common stock of Checkers Drive-In Restaurants, Inc. to the seller of these two lots if purchased. The transaction is expected to close following such time as the Checkers
shares to be delivered by the Company are registered for resale under the Securities Act. Additionally, the Company is also negotiating to acquire three lots in the vicinity of Yellowstone National Park for development and resale.



In conjunction with these expected transactions, the Company has entered into a letter of
intent with a bank to obtain financing of approximately $8.0 million. This line will be secured by the Deed of Trust on the lots purchased and approximately 530,000 shares of Checkers Drive-In Restaurants. In addition, various bank covenants will
have to be met by the Company. If consummated, this line will expire on June 1, 2006 and will bear interest at 6% per annum. A one year extension will be provided if all the loan terms have been satisfied.



The Company believes that it will no longer fall within the definition of an investment
company under the Investment Act.



Management believes that the Companys
liquidity and its ability to obtain financing are sufficient for the Company to properly capitalize its current and future business operations, as well as its on-going operating expenses.



Off-balance Sheet Arrangements



The Company does not maintain any off-balance sheet transactions, arrangements, obligations
with unconsolidated entities, except for operating leases, that are reasonably likely to have a material current or future effect on the Companys financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, liquidity, capital
expenditures or capital resources.



|Item 3. | Quantitative and qualitative disclosures about market risk
|------- | ----------------------------------------------------------



The Companys primary financial instrument consists of its holdings of approximately 978,000 shares of Checkers common stock, representing 85% of the Companys
total liquidity at March 31, 2004. On April

##### Table of Contents

23, 2004, the Company announced that it has entered into an agreement to acquire two lots in Montana near Yellowstone
National Park in exchange for 435,000 shares of Checkers common stock.



The
Companys market risk is the potential decrease in the value of its financial instrument resulting from lower stock market prices. The Company does not enter into derivatives for trading or interest rate exposure.



|Item 4. | Controls and procedures
|------- | -----------------------
