        NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

NOTE A.  BASIS OF PRESENTATION
- ------------------------------

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim
financial information. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting
of normal  recurring  accruals  and the  unusual  charges  discussed  in Note B)
necessary for a fair presentation have been included.  Operating results for the
three month period ended March 31, 1997 are not  necessarily  indicative  of the
results  that may be  expected  for the  year  ending  December  31,  1997.  The
condensed  consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 1996 has been derived from
audited financial statements at that date. For further information, refer to the
consolidated  financial  statements and notes thereto  included in the Company's
Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1996.

Certain  amounts  reported  in  the  prior  year  have  been   reclassified  for
comparative purposes.

In February 1997, the Financial  Accounting Standards Board issued Statement No.
128, Earnings per Share, which will change the method for computing earnings per
share starting in the fourth quarter of 1997. The new method would have resulted
in the same per share amounts in both the 1997 and 1996 quarters.

NOTE B.  UNUSUAL CHARGES
- ------------------------

In the first quarter of 1996, the Company  initiated a reorganization to improve
productivity  and reduce costs.  The  reorganization  consisted  principally  of
consolidating all the Company's  headquarters  functions in a single office. The
Company's  corporate  headquarters in Stamford,  Connecticut and the Treatment &
Disposal Services segment's headquarters in Horsham, Pennsylvania were closed by
mid-1996  and  their  activities  moved  to  the   International   Mill  Service
headquarters  building,  also  in  Horsham.   Approximately  50  positions  were
eliminated,  mostly in the Treatment & Disposal Services  segment.  To cover the
cost of these and related changes, the Company provided $4.4 million in 1996, of
which $2.5 million was provided in the first quarter.

First quarter 1996 unusual  charges also included $.9 million to settle the last
disputed matter from the Company's 1993 restructuring.

First quarter 1996 unusual charges, together with the gain from retiring Class G
preferred stock (Note E), amounted to a net $.05 loss per share.
<PAGE>

NOTE C.  SALE OF IMSAMET
- ------------------------

In  January  1997  the  Company  sold the  capital  stock of  IMSAMET,  Inc.,  a
wholly-owned  subsidiary that performed  recycling and waste management services
for the  aluminum  industry,  for $58 million  realizing a pre-tax gain of $19.6
million.  After a deferred income tax charge,  the gain amounted to $8.3 million
or $.20 per share.  The proceeds from the sale were used to repay $56 million of
revolving credit  borrowings and expenses  related to the transaction.  The gain
from the  sale in 1997 and  IMSAMET's  1996  results  have  been  classified  as
discontinued operations.
 
NOTE D.  ALEXANDER MILL SERVICES ACQUISITION
- --------------------------------------------

The Company purchased Alexander Mill Services, Inc., a metal reclamation company
serving  the  mini-mill  sector of the steel  industry,  in May 1996.  Pro forma
results of operations, as if this transaction occurred at the beginning of 1996,
are as follows (in thousands, except per share amounts):

The pro forma  information  is not  necessarily  indicative  of the results that
would have occurred had the transaction taken place at the beginning of 1996.

NOTE E.  OTHER INFORMATION
- --------------------------

As of March 31,  1997,  $35  million of  revolving  credit  borrowings  and $7.3
million of standby  letters of credit were  outstanding  under the Company's $65
million bank credit facility.

During the three months ended March 31, 1997 and 1996, the Company paid interest
of $2.3  million  and $.5  million  and made cash  income tax  payments,  net of
refunds, of $.3 million and $.1 million.

In the first  quarter of 1996,  the Company  retired  236,120  shares of Class G
redeemable preferred stock for $33.1 million, resulting in a $250,000 retirement
gain.

NOTE F.  COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
- --------------------------------------

As of March 31,  1997,  the Company has  commitments  to spend $8.9  million for
equipment additions and improvements to waste treatment facilities.
<PAGE>

To secure  its  obligations  to close its  landfills  and  perform  post-closure
monitoring  and  maintenance  procedures,  the Company must make  payments  into
closure trust funds. Based on current regulations, planned improvements to waste
treatment  facilities  and  permitted  capacity,  such  payments are expected to
amount to approximately $2.8 million in 1997 and $2.4 million in 1998, including
the  reinvestment  of Idaho trust fund  earnings  that the  Company  includes in
interest  income.  Thereafter,  such  payments  are not  expected  to exceed the
reinvestment of trust fund earnings, based on current requirements.

At March 31,  1997,  the Company  was  contingently  liable for $7.3  million of
letters  of  credit  outstanding  under  its bank  credit  agreement,  including
approximately  $5.3 million  that secure  liabilities  already  reflected in the
condensed   consolidated  balance  sheet.

IU International  Corporation ("IU International")  sold P-I-E Nationwide,  Inc.
("PIE")  in 1985.  PIE  commenced  bankruptcy  proceedings  in 1990  and  ceased
operations,  which  triggered  withdrawal  liabilities to certain  multiemployer
pension  plans,  estimated by PIE in 1990 to aggregate $58 million.  In 1991 the
trustees of the largest plan sought  information from the Company for the stated
purpose of determining whether the circumstances of IU International's 1985 sale
of PIE would justify a claim against the Company for any  deficiencies  in PIE's
payment of withdrawal  liabilities to such plan. Such plan did not again contact
the Company  concerning  this matter until March 15, 1995,  when the Company was
advised that such plan's  consideration as to whether it would assert a claim is
ongoing.  The Company  believes any such claim is unwarranted and, if such claim
were asserted, would contest any such claim vigorously.  The Company believes it
would ultimately prevail on the merits. However, under the Multiemployer Pension
Plan Amendments Act of 1980, the federal statute  governing such plans, the plan
trustees could require the Company to make  substantial  monthly payments before
any issues are arbitrated or litigated.  If onerous monthly payments are imposed
by the plan,  the Company will take any and all actions it deems  necessary  and
appropriate  to  protect  itself  until  the  matter  can be  arbitrated  and/or
litigated on its merits.  The Company  continues to believe that the  underlying
facts and circumstances support a conclusion that these matters will be resolved
with no  material  adverse  effect  on its  financial  condition.  However,  the
resolution of such matters,  which  potentially  could take place in the current
fiscal year,  could result in a charge that is material to results of operations
and cash flows in a single accounting period.
<PAGE>

The Company's Ohio and Idaho  facilities hold operating  permits issued by state
and federal environmental  agencies under the Resource Conservation and Recovery
Act, as amended,  that require renewal and  modification  from time to time. The
Company  expects  that it will  obtain the  renewals  and  modifications  to its
permits  that it  requires  to  continue  to provide  landfill  capacity  in its
approved disposal cells well into the next decade.

The Company and its competitors and customers are subject to a complex, evolving
array of  federal,  state  and  local  environmental  laws and  regulations.  In
particular,  such  requirements not only can affect the demand for treatment and
disposal services, but could also require the Company to incur significant costs
for such matters as facility upgrading,  remediation or other corrective action,
facility  closure and  post-closure  maintenance and monitoring.  It is possible
that the future imposition of additional  environmental  compliance requirements
could have a material  adverse effect on the Company's  results of operations or
financial  condition,  but the  Company  is unable to  predict  any such  future
requirements.  The Company believes that the consolidated  financial  statements
appropriately  reflect all presently known  compliance  costs in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles.

The  Company  is a party to  litigation  and  proceedings  arising in the normal
course of its present or former  businesses.  In the opinion of management,  the
outcome of such matters will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's
financial condition or results of operations.

</TABLE>


     Industrial Environmental Services revenues declined as compared to the 1996
first quarter. While conditions in the steel industry remained strong,  revenues
and earnings continued to be adversely affected by a strike commenced by a major
steel industry customer's  employees at the beginning of the 1996 fourth quarter
and the  rearrangement  of production  facilities due to an ownership  change at
another  customer's  steel mill. The Company's May 1996 acquisition of Alexander
Mill Services, Inc. contributed $2.5 million to revenues in the current quarter,
but the increase was largely  offset by the  mid-1996  loss of a steel  industry
customer that  accounted for $2.2 million of revenues in the 1996 first quarter.
Treatment & Disposal Services revenues increased significantly in the 1997 first
quarter as compared to the same quarter of 1996. The increase is attributable to
additional  contracts  obtained  to  stabilize  electric  arc  furnace  dust  (a
hazardous waste produced by steel mini-mills).

     Industrial  Environmental  Services gross profit decreased primarily due to
the strike,  the  temporary  impact of the ownership  change and the  difference
between the gross profit from the Alexander  Mill  Services  sites and the prior
year gross  profit  from the  customer  that was lost in  mid-1996.  Treatment &
Disposal  Services  gross profit  increased due to the increase in treatment and
disposal volumes, primarily electric arc furnace dust.

     Selling,  general and administrative  expenses increased as compared to the
1996 first quarter. Cost savings realized as a result of the 1996 reorganization
(discussed in the next paragraph) were more than offset by a $1 million increase
in legal fees and expenses that are expected to decline in future periods.

     Unusual  charges of $3.4  million in first  quarter of 1996  included  $2.5
million for the Company's  1996  headquarters  reorganization  (see Note B for a
description)  and $.9  million  to  settle  the last  disputed  matter  from the
Company's 1993 restructuring.

     Average  first  quarter  debt  levels  in 1997  were  comparable  to  1996.
Approximately  $.3 million of 1997 interest expense was due to the timing of the
closing of the sale of the Company's  IMSAMET  subsidiary.  Interest expense was
lower in 1996  because $.8 million was  allocated  to the  discontinued  IMSAMET
operations.

     In 1997  current  income tax expense  relates to state and  foreign  income
taxes payable. In 1996 state income tax benefits more than offset foreign income
taxes payable.

     The Company  sold its IMSAMET  subsidiary  in January 1997 for an after-tax
gain of $8.3 million or $.20 per share.  Accordingly,  the gain from the sale in
1997 and IMSAMET's 1996 results have been classified as discontinued operations.

     Due to the factors described above, including discontinued operations, 1997
net income was $7 million compared with the 1996 net loss of $2.5 million.

     Class G preferred  stock dividend  requirements in 1996 were reduced due to
the  retirement  of almost all of the  outstanding  shares in the 1996  quarter,
which resulted in a $.3 million retirement gain.

DEFERRED INCOME TAXES

     The  Company  has  determined  that it is more likely than not that it will
earn enough  taxable  income to realize the $16.7 million of deferred tax assets
in its balance  sheet over the next several  years.  Realization  of this amount
will require cumulative taxable earnings of approximately $48 million.  When the
consolidated  results of continuing  operations for the three most recent fiscal
years are adjusted by (1) excluding  unusual items, and (2) adding back goodwill
amortization  (which is not deductible for tax purposes),  the pre-tax earnings,
as adjusted,  total over $33 million and average $11 million  annually.  On this
basis,  the Company  would  realize  $16.7 million of deferred tax assets within
approximately  four and  one-half  years.  On the other  hand,  because  its net
operating loss carryforwards expire well into the future, the Company would also
realize $16.7 million of deferred tax assets if, counting only profitable years,
it earns $48 million of taxable  income during the fifteen year period ending in
2012, so long as the  cumulative  amount of such  earnings  reaches at least $15
million by 2005,  $26  million by 2006,  $35  million by 2008 and $44 million by
2009, and $47 million by 2010.
<PAGE>

     In making its  determination  that it is more  likely than not that it will
earn enough  taxable income to realize $16.7 million of net deferred tax assets,
the Company considered (1) its cumulative consolidated results of operations for
the three  most  recent  fiscal  years and the first  quarter  of 1997,  (2) the
reduction in interest  expense  obtained by applying the IMSAMET net proceeds to
reduce debt, (3) ongoing cost savings achieved with its 1996 reorganization, and
(4) profit  improvements from treating increased volumes of electric arc furnace
dust  with its  proprietary  Super  Detox(R)  technology.  Factors  which  could
negatively affect this determination  would include (1) loss of a major customer
or  customers,  (2) prolonged  work  stoppages at major  customers,  (3) a major
decline in United States steel industry production,  and (4) a material decrease
in the level of electric arc furnace dust  currently  treated with the Company's
proprietary Super Detox(R) technology.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

     The Company's  liquidity  requirements  arise primarily from the funding of
capital expenditures, Treatment & Disposal Services trust fund payments, working
capital needs and debt service  obligations.  Historically,  the Company has met
such  requirements  with cash flows  generated by operations and with additional
debt financing.

     The  Company  expects  1997  capital  expenditures  of $25 to $30  million,
primarily  for  equipment  replacements,   development  of  additional  landfill
capacity and improvements to waste treatment facilities. Through March 31, 1997,
the Company  spent $8.7 million for capital  additions  and is committed  for an
additional $8.9 million.

     Treatment & Disposal  Services' landfill permits require it to fund closure
and post-closure  monitoring and maintenance  obligations by making  essentially
non-refundable  trust  fund  payments.  Based on  current  regulations,  planned
improvements to waste treatment facilities and permitted capacity, such payments
are expected to be approximately  $2.8 million in 1997 and $2.4 million in 1998,
including  the  reinvestment  of Idaho  trust  fund  earnings  that the  Company
includes in interest  income.  Thereafter,  such  payments  are not  expected to
exceed the reinvestment of trust fund earnings, based on current requirements.

     The  consolidated  balance sheet reflects  negative working capital of $1.9
million at March 31,  1997,  including  a $1.7  million  accrued  liability  for
estimated  reorganization and restructuring costs.  Scheduled debt repayments in
the last three quarters of 1997 are $3.8 million.
<PAGE>

     On March 15,  1995, a  multiemployer  pension  plan  contacted  the Company
concerning a potential claim against the Company for deficiencies in the payment
of  withdrawal  liabilities  by a subsidiary  that was sold by IU  International
Corporation prior to the Company's  acquisition of IU International in 1988. The
Company  believes  any such  claim  is  unwarranted  and,  if such  claims  were
asserted, would contest any such claim vigorously. The Company believes it would
ultimately prevail on the merits.  However, under the Multiemployer Pension Plan
Amendments  Act of 1980,  the federal  statute  governing  such plans,  the plan
trustees could require the Company to make  substantial  monthly payments before
any issues are arbitrated or litigated.  If onerous monthly payments are imposed
by the plan,  the Company will take any and all actions it deems  necessary  and
appropriate  to  protect  itself  until  the  matter  can be  arbitrated  and/or
litigated on its merits.  The Company  continues to believe that the  underlying
facts and circumstances support a conclusion that these matters will be resolved
with no  material  adverse  effect  on its  financial  condition.  However,  the
resolution of such matters,  which  potentially  could take place in the current
fiscal year,  could result in a charge that is material to results of operations
and cash flows in a single accounting period.

     Upon the sale of IMSAMET,  the Company applied the net proceeds to pay down
bank borrowings,  and also reduced the amount of its bank credit facility to $65
million of revolving credit borrowing and letter of credit capacity. As of March
31, 1997,  revolving credit borrowings  amounted to $35 million and $7.3 million
of standby letters of credit were outstanding.  The bank facility was amended to
accommodate the sale of IMSAMET,  including  changes to the financial  covenants
that require the Company to meet certain financial ratios and tests during 1997.
Although  improved  operating  results will be required  during the remainder of
1997, the Company  believes that it will be able to meet its financial  covenant
requirements.  To remain in compliance  during 1998 and thereafter,  the Company
will need to obtain  further  adjustments to the required  financial  ratios and
tests  throughout the remaining term of the facility.  The Company and the banks
that are parties to the facility  intend to further amend such ratios and tests.
The $65  million  amount of the  credit  facility  declines  by 12.5% in each of
January 1999 and 2000 and the credit facility terminates in January 2001.


     Cash on hand,  funds from operations and borrowing  capacity under the bank
credit facility are expected to satisfy the Company's  normal operating and debt
service requirements.

     Because its businesses are  environmentally-oriented,  and therefore highly
regulated,  the  Company  is  subject to  violations  alleged  by  environmental
regulators and, occasionally, fines. Such violations and fines have not had, and
are not expected to have, a material  impact on the  Company's  business.  It is
possible  that the future  imposition  of  additional  environmental  compliance
requirements  could have a material  adverse effect on the Company's  results of
operations or financial condition, but the Company is unable to predict any such
future requirements.
