                    REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS


To the Shareholders of
         Repak Surgical Enterprises, Inc.


We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Repak Surgical Enterprises,
Inc. (formerly the Mason facility of the Repak Surgical Division of Standard
Textile Co., Inc., Note 1) as of December 31, 1997 and 1996, and the related
statements of operations and cash flows for the years then ended. These
financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on
our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of
material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit
also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant
estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial
statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis
for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of Repak Surgical Enterprises,
Inc. (formerly the Mason facility of the Repak Surgical Division of Standard
Textile Co., Inc.) as of December 31, 1997 and 1996, and the results of its
operations and its cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles.

(1)      The Company Formation and Sale-

         Repak Surgical Enterprises, Inc. (the Company), formerly the Mason
         facility of the Repak Surgical Division of Standard Textile Co., Inc.
         (the Parent), provides a service to deliver, pickup, launder, sterilize
         and repackage reusable surgical linens primarily to hospitals in Ohio,
         Michigan and West Virginia.

         The Company was incorporated in Ohio on July 15, 1998 under the name
         Repak Surgical Enterprises, Inc. On August 31, 1998, all outstanding
         common stock of the Company was acquired by Sterile Recoveries, Inc.
         (SRI) for 566,667 shares of SRI Series A Preferred Stock which has a
         liquidation value of $18 per share, is convertible into common stock
         of SRI, and accrues dividends at 2% through the earlier of September
         1, 2004 or conversion into common stock. For approximately $1.5
         million, SRI contracted to purchase the real estate which had been
         leased by the Company under a capital lease and the Company contracted
         to supply certain goods to SRI for the three-year period subsequent to
         the acquisition.

         (a)      Reusable Surgical Linens and Related Items- Reusable surgical
                  linens are stated at cost and amortized over their estimated
                  useful lives based on the number of available uses for each
                  product type (approximates 10-36 months).

         (c)      Revenue Recognition- Revenue is recorded at the time the
                  linen is delivered to the customer.

         (d)      Management Allocations- The Parent has allocated certain
                  common expenses to the Company using a proportional cost
                  allocation method (Note 6). Management believes this method
                  provides a reasonable estimation of common expenses related
                  to the Company and that costs allocated to the Company
                  approximate costs that would have been incurred by the
                  Company on a stand alone basis.

         (e)      Use of Estimates- The preparation of financial statements in
                  conformity with generally accepted accounting principles
                  requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
                  affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
                  disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date
                  of the financial statements and the reported amounts of
                  revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual
                  results could differ from those estimates.

         (f)      Unaudited Financial Statements- In the opinion of management,
                  the unaudited financial statements as of June 30, 1998, and
                  for the six months ended June 30, 1998 and 1997 reflect all
                  adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments)
                  considered necessary for a fair presentation of the results
                  for the periods reported, but operating results for the six
                  months ended June 30, 1998 are not necessarily indicative of
                  the results for the entire year. Such financial information
                  is subject to yearend adjustments and annual audit.

(3)      Income Taxes-

         For federal and state income tax purposes, the Parent has elected to
         include its taxable income with that of its shareholders (an S
         Corporation election). Accordingly, no provision for income taxes or
         related tax liability is recorded.

         As discussed in Note 1, as of July 15, 1998, the Company incorporated
         and became subject to federal and state taxes on its taxable income.
         The Company will recognize a deferred tax benefit for cumulative
         temporary differences between financial and tax reporting as of July
         15, 1998, the date of incorporation. If the incorporation had occurred
         at December 31, 1997, the deferred tax benefit would have been
         approximately $18,000.

         The following summarizes the estimated unaudited pro forma provision
         for income taxes that would have been reported had the Company filed
         federal and state income tax returns as a C Corporation under the
         liability method of accounting, in accordance with Statement of
         Financial Accounting Standards No. 109 "Accounting for Income Taxes."

         reported for tax purposes in different periods than they are reported
         for financial reporting. The components of the Company's pro forma net

         Eligible Company employees participate in a 401(k) profit sharing plan
         established by the Parent. The plan provides for voluntary
         contributions by Company employees up to a specified maximum
         percentage of gross pay. Company contributions are discretionary and
         approximated $66,000 for the years ended December 31, 1997 and 1996,
         and $41,000 and $33,000 for the six months ended June 30, 1998 and

                  terminated in conjunction with the acquisition of the Company
                  by SRI (Note 1). Amortization of the capitalized amount is
                  included in depreciation expense.

                  Rental expense approximated $234,000 and $213,000 for the
                  years ended December 31, 1997 and 1996, and $131,000 and

                  respectively.

         (c)      Litigation- The Company is subject to various claims,
                  lawsuits and administrative proceedings arising in the
                  ordinary course of business. Management believes that any
                  liability that may finally be determined will not have a
                  material impact on the financial position or results of
                  operations.

(6)      Related Party Transactions-

         (a)      The majority of the Company's reusable surgical linens are
                  manufactured by a division of the Parent and transferred at
                  cost to the Company as needed.

         (b)      The Parent transfers assets and reusable surgical linens,
                  allocates certain administrative costs to the Company,
                  applies cash receipts/ disbursements related to Company
                  receivables/payables, and records profits reported by the
                  division through an intercompany account which corresponds to
                  the activities accumulated in the Parent's equity in division
                  included in the accompanying balance sheets. The Parent does
                  not charge the Company interest on its net equity in the
                  division. Activity related to this account for the years
                  ended December 31, 1997 and 1996, and the six month period
                  ended June 30, 1998 is as follows:

                         PRO FORMA FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The accompanying Pro Forma Combined Balance Sheet and Statements of Earnings
have been derived from the historical financial statements of Sterile
Recoveries, Inc. (the "Company") and Repak Surgical Enterprises, Inc.
("Repak"), and adjusts such information to give effect to the Company's
acquisition of Repak, which was completed on August 31, 1998 using the purchase
method of accounting.

The Pro Forma Combined Balance Sheet as of June 30, 1998 assumes that the
acquisition of Repak occurred on June 30, 1998. The Pro Forma Combined
Statements of Earnings for the year ended December 31, 1997 and the six months
ended June 30, 1998 assume that the acquisition of Repak occurred on January 1,
1997 and 1998, respectively, and include the actual results of operations of
the Company and Repak for the year ended December 31, 1997 and the six months
ended June 30, 1998.

The pro forma financial information is not necessarily indicative of the
results that would actually have occurred had the transactions been in effect
on the dates and for the period indicated or which may result in the future. In
the opinion of management, all adjustments have been made to fairly present the
pro forma information. This pro forma information should be read in conjunction
with the notes thereto and the historical financial information.
