Notes to Unaudited Financing Statement
Basis of presentation
The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared in accordance
with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information
and with the instructions incorporated in Regulation 10-SB of the Securities and
Exchange Commission. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and
footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete
financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting
of normal recurring adjustments and accruals) considered necessary for a fair
presentation have been included.
The results of operations for the periods presented are not necessarily
indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. The accompanying
financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's financial
statements for the year ended December 31, 1997, included elsewhere herein.
Basic loss per share was computed using the weighted average number of common
shares outstanding.
During 1995, the Company sold DM 210,000 of convertible debentures to thirteen
individual investors in Germany. The debentures bear interest at 10.75% per
annum and were due in March 1999. The debentures were to be convertible into
shares of the Company's common stock, however, none were converted. During 1996,
DM 100,000 plus accrued interest was repaid to certain of the investors. An
additional DM 10,000 of the debentures plus accrued interest was repaid during
the period ended September 30, 1998. Additionally, the Company paid DM 197,798
against bank debt prior to its maturity.
During February 1998, the Company acquired a 49% ownership interest in T-Cycle
Computer Service and Verwertungs GmbH, a German company engaged in dismantling
and disposing of surplus electronic equipment in Germany. The Company paid DM
49,000 for its investment in T-Cycle and will account for the investment using
the equity method of accounting. Accordingly, the Company has recognized its
share of losses of T-Cycle for the period ended September 30, 1998, which
amounted to DM 49,000, as a reduction of its investment in the Company.
During the quarter ended September 30, 1998, the Company borrowed DM 150,000
from a company controlled by the Company's principal shareholder. The loan is
due in DM 50,000 installments in 2006, 2007 and 2008, and bears interest at 6%
per annum.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Result
of Operations
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Three Months Ended September 30, 1998, Compared to Three Months Ended
September 30, 1997
Sales for the three month period ended September 30, 1998, were DM 169,030,
an increase of DM 107,654, or 175.4%, as compared to the three month period
ended September 30, 1997. The principal reason for this increase was the opening
of the Landsberg facility. Cost of operations for the three month period ended
September 30, 1998 was DM 80,203, an increase of DM 33,471, or 71.6%, as
compared to the three month period ended September 30, 1997. This increase was
primarily due to increased operating activities. Gross Profit for the three
month period ended September 30, 1998, was DM 121,822, an increase of DM
107,178, or 731.9%, as compared to the three month period ended September 30,
1997.
General and administrative expenses for the three month period ended
September 30, 1998, were DM 342,990, an increase of DM 84,139, or 32.5%, as
compared to the three month period ended September 30, 1997. This increase was
principally due to increased expenses associated with the opening of the
Landsberg facility and an increase in general and administrative expenses
associated with the higher level of activity as well as increased accounting and
legal expenses resulting from the Company's registration under the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934.
As a result of these factors, the operating loss for the three month period
ended September 30, 1998, was DM 221,168, a decrease in the operating loss of DM
23,039, or 9.4%, as compared to the three month period ended September 30, 1997.
Other income and expenses for the three month period ended September 30, 1998,
was an expense of DM 44, 166, an increase of DM 39,257, or 800%, as compared to
the three month period ended September 30, 1997. The increase in other expenses
was primarily due to an increase in losses of DM 40,974 of its unconsolidated
subsidiary. Further, for the reasons noted above, the net loss for the three
month period ended September 30, 1998, was DM 265,429, an increase in the net
loss of DM 17,709, or 7.2%, as compared to the three month period ended
September 30, 1997.
Nine Months Ended September 30, 1998, Compared to Nine Months Ended
September 30, 1997
Sales for the nine month period ended September 30, 1998, were DM 534,102,
an increase of DM 277,876, or 108.5%, as compared to the nine month period ended
September 30, 1997. The principal reasons for this increase were that the
Company was able to add new customers for its recycling business to replace
customers lost in the prior year and the opening of the Landsberg facility. Cost
of operations for the nine month period ended September 30, 1998, was DM
179,675, an increase of DM 38,820, or 27.6%, as compared to the nine month
period ended September 30, 1997. This increase was primarily due to increased
operating activities. Gross Profit for the nine month period ended September 30,
1998, was DM 431,852, an increase of DM 316,481, or 274.3%, as compared to the
nine month period ended September 30, 1997.
General and administrative expenses for the nine month period ended
September 30, 1998, were DM 998,366, an increase of DM 549,427, or 122.4%, as
compared to the nine month period ended September 30, 1997. This increase was
principally due to increased expenses associated with the opening of the
Landsberg facility and an increase in general and administrative expenses
associated with the higher level of activity as well as increased accounting and
legal expenses resulting from the Company's registration under the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934.
As a result of these factors, the operating loss for the nine month period
ended September 30, 1998, was DM 566,514, an increase in the operating loss of
DM 232,946, or 69.8%, as compared to the nine month period ended September 30,
1997. Other income and expenses for the nine month period ended September 30,
1998, was an expense of DM 64,088, an increase of DM 44,333, or 224.4%, as

<PAGE>
compared to the nine month period ended September 30, 1997. The increase in
other expenses was primarily due to an increase in losses of DM 49,000 of its
unconsolidated subsidiary. Further, for the reasons noted above, the net loss
for the nine month period ended September 30, 1998, was DM 632,318, an increase
in the net loss of DM 278,995, or 79.0%, as compared to the nine month period
ended September 30, 1997.
