NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
NOTE 1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The unaudited consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments which
are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the
financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim
periods. The unaudited consolidated financial statements do not include all of
the information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial
statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles
and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and
notes thereto included in the Company's 1999 Annual Report to Shareholders which
is incorporated by reference in its Form 10-K filed with the Securities and
Exchange Commission. Results for the three months and six months ended June 30,
2000 are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year 2000.
NOTE 2 - LINE OF CREDIT AGREEMENT
On April 26, 2000, the Company entered into a new revolving credit facility with
a maximum capacity of $15,000,000 to provide cash borrowings and letters of
credit. Use of the facility is limited by a borrowing base calculated on the
basis of the Company's eligible accounts receivable. The facility is
collateralized by liens on substantially all of the Company's tangible and
intangible assets, excluding real estate. The facility, which replaced the
Company's previous credit arrangements, is for a three-year period and is
available for working capital and other general corporate purposes. At June 30,
2000 the available unused portion of the facility was $9,446,000.
Under the terms of the agreement, cash borrowings bear interest at 1/2% over the
prime rate or, at the Company's option, other variable rates. The Company is
subject to a 3/8% annual charge on the unused portion of the facility. The
agreement requires the Company to maintain minimum levels of tangible net worth
and certain financial ratios and restricts certain expenditures and debt outside
the agreement.
NOTE 3 - SEGMENTS
Net revenues and segment profit (loss) for the three months and six months ended

NOTE 5 - CONSOLIDATED STATEMENTS OF CASH FLOW
Cash payments for income taxes were $81,000 and $24,000 in the first six months
of 2000 and 1999, respectively. Cash payments for interest were $733,000 and
$663,000 in the six months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively.
The Company incurred $269,000 and $268,000 of capital lease obligations in the
six months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively, when the Company entered
into leases for office equipment.
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.
The following information should be read in conjunction with the unaudited
interim consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in this
Quarterly Report and the audited financial statements and Management's
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
contained in the Company's Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission for the fiscal year ended December 31, 1999.
On April 27, 2000 the Company announced that it had retained Raymond James &
Associates, Inc. to help the Company explore its strategic alternatives; that
the Company's Board of Directors had appointed a special committee of
independent directors to evaluate the alternatives on behalf of the holders of
the Company's publicly traded Series A common shares; and that members of the
Weston family who control a majority of the Company's non-publicly traded Common
shares were working with the special committee and Raymond James. The Company
continues to explore its strategic alternatives.
MATERIAL CHANGES IN RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Net income for the three months ended June 30, 2000 was $1,768,000, or $.18 per
share, compared to $91,000, or $.01 per share, for the three months ended June
30, 1999. Net income for the six months ended June 30, 2000 was $2,513,000, or
$.25 per share, compared to $462,000, or $.05 per share, for the six months
ended June 30, 1999.
Net revenues increased 13% to $40,625,000 for the three months ended June 30,
2000 and 7% to $79,316,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2000 compared to
the 1999 periods. Gross revenues increased 15% to $68,977,000 for the three
months ended June 30, 2000 and 4% to $138,677,000 for the six months ended June
30, 2000 compared to the 1999 periods. Net revenues from the Company's
Infrastructure Redevelopment segment increased $6,502,000, or 22%, and
$9,474,000, or 16%, in the three months and six months ended June 30, 2000,
primarily due to increased volume of work as a result of higher contract
bookings in 1999 and 2000. The three months and six months ended June 30, 2000
included net revenues of approximately $1,900,000 and $2,300,000, respectively,
from an industrial brownfields redevelopment project. Net revenues from Federal
Programs declined $1,733,000, or 32%, and $3,464,000, or 30%, in the three
months and six months ended June 30, 2000 primarily due to the loss of one large
contract in the middle of 1999.
8
<PAGE> 11
The Company had income from operations of $1,945,000 and $2,825,000 in the three
months and six months ended June 30, 2000, respectively, compared to $390,000
and $1,107,000 in the three months and six months ended June 30, 1999,
respectively. The increases in 2000 income from operations for the respective
periods was principally realized from the aforementioned increased net revenues.
In particular, a substantial portion of the Company's income from operations for
the three months ended June 30, 2000 was attributable to the industrial
brownfields redevelopment project referred to above which was completed as of
June 30, 2000. General and administrative expenses declined $526,000, or 12%,
and $924,000, or 10%, in the three months and six months ended June 30, 2000 due
principally to continued cost containment and operating efficiencies. The 1999
periods included unusually high computer training costs related to the
implementation of new systems. The three months and six months ended June 30,
1999 included a $500,000 reduction in the Company's estimated insurance claim
liabilities.
The Company had $834,000 and $1,195,000 of other income in the three months and
six months ended June 30, 2000, respectively, compared to other expense of
$238,000 and $337,000 in the three months and six months ended June 30, 1999,
respectively. The 2000 periods include equity in undistributed earnings of a
limited liability company 40%-owned by the Company, which began operations in
late 1999. Other income includes $210,000 and $52,000 in the six months ended
June 30, 2000 and June 30, 1999, respectively, of gains on redemption of the
Company's 7% Convertible Subordinated Debentures. Interest expense increased
$64,000, or 17%, and $153,000, or 21% in the three months and six months ended
June 30, 2000, respectively, due to increased borrowings under the Company's
line of credit, partially offset by reductions of 7% convertible subordinated
debt outstanding.
MATERIAL CHANGES IN FINANCIAL CONDITION
Cash and cash equivalents decreased $3,056,000 in the first six months of 2000
to $1,299,000 from $4,355,000 at December 31, 1999.
Operating activities provided cash of $1,195,000 for the first six months of
2000, compared to using cash of $2,176,000 in the comparable 1999 period.
Capital expenditures were $1,487,000 in the first six months of 2000, compared
to $2,810,000 in the comparable 1999 period. The Company used cash of $3,042,000
in financing activities in the first six months of 2000, compared to $266,000 in
the comparable 1999 period. The six months ended June 30, 2000 included the
repurchase of $3,015,000 principal amount of the Company's 7% Convertible
Subordinated Debentures in order to satisfy the April 15, 2000 sinking fund
requirement. Further debenture repurchases of $3,028,000 are required before
April 15, 2001.
On April 26, 2000, the Company entered into a new three-year revolving credit
facility with a maximum capacity of $15,000,000. The facility, which replaced
the Company's previous credit arrangements, increases the Company's access to
working capital borrowings needed to finance the growth of the Company's
business. The Company is required to maintain minimum levels of tangible net
worth and certain financial ratios and certain expenditures and debt outside the
facility are restricted. [See Note 2 to the unaudited consolidated financial
statements.]

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
On April 14, 2000, the Company filed a Preliminary Complaint
against the United States in the United States Court of
Federal Claims (Roy F. Weston, Inc. v. The United States, C.A.
No. 00-213c). The Complaint arises out of a thermal
remediation project that the Company performed under a
contract with the United States Army Corps of Engineers
("USACE") in St. Charles, Missouri during 1998 and 1999. In
its Preliminary Complaint, the Company seeks to recover
approximately $13 million, plus interest and legal costs,
relating to contract modifications requested by the Company
for work performed on the project, which had been denied by
the USACE project contracting officer. The Company also
disputes the contracting officer's finding that the Company
has been overpaid by approximately $2.6 million. The Company's
Preliminary Complaint asserts that the Company encountered
site conditions that were materially different from those
indicated in the contract documents, as well as other grounds
for relief.
Although the outcome of any litigation is uncertain, the
Company believes that its position is sound and that it will
achieve a favorable result in the litigation, in which event
the Company could recognize a significant gain. In the event
of an unfavorable resolution, the Company could sustain a
material loss.
