REPORT OF INDEPENDENT CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS
To the Stockholders and Board of Directors of Republic Waste Industries, Inc.:
We have audited the accompanying supplemental consolidated balance
sheets of Republic Waste Industries, Inc. (a Delaware corporation) and
subsidiaries as of December 31, 1994 and 1993 and the related supplemental
consolidated statements of operations, stockholders' equity and cash flows for
each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1994. These
supplemental consolidated statements give retroactive effect to the merger with
Kertz Security Systems II, Inc. and Kertz Security Systems, Inc. on August 28,
1995, which has been accounted for as a pooling of interests as described in
Note 1. These supplemental financial statements are the responsibility of the
Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
supplemental 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 supplemental consolidated financial statements
referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial
position of Republic Waste Industries, Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31,
1994 and 1993, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for
each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1994, after giving
retroactive effect to the merger with Kertz Security Systems II, Inc. and Kertz
Security Systems, Inc. as described in Note 1, all in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles.

NOTES TO SUPPLEMENTAL CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION. The accompanying supplemental
consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Republic Waste
Industries, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries ("Republic" or the
"Company"). All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been
eliminated. In 1994, the Board of Directors authorized management to pursue a
plan to distribute its hazardous waste services segment, Republic Environmental
Systems, Inc. ("RESI"), to Republic stockholders. In February 1995, the Board
of Directors approved this distribution to Republic stockholders of record as
of February 15, 1995. Accordingly, as discussed in Note 2, this segment has
been accounted for as a discontinued operation and the accompanying
supplemental consolidated financial statements for all periods presented have
been restated to report separately the net assets and operating results of
these discontinued operations.
In the opinion of management, the unaudited supplemental consolidated
financial statements contain all adjustments, consisting of only normal
recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly the consolidated financial
position of the Company at June 30, 1995, and the consolidated results of their
operations and cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 1995 and 1994.
SUPPLEMENTAL CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS. The accompanying
supplemental consolidated financial statements give retroactive effect to the
merger with Kertz Security Systems II, Inc. and Kertz Security Systems, Inc.
("Kertz"). On August 28, 1995, the Company issued 1,090,000 shares of the
Company's common stock, $0.01 par value per share ("Common Stock"), in exchange
for all of the oustanding shares of common stock of Kertz. Kertz provides
electronic security monitoring and maintenance to over 30,000 residential and
commercial customers predominantly in the South Florida, Tampa and Orlando
areas. The transaction was accounted for under the pooling-of-interests method
of accounting and, accordingly, the accompanying supplemental consolidated
financial statements have been retroactively adjusted as if the Company and
Kertz had operated as one entity since inception. These supplemental
consolidated financial statements will be the same as the restated statements
that will be issued after post-merger operating results have been published.
Details of the results of operations of the previously separate
companies for the periods prior to the combination are as follows:

REPUBLIC WASTE INDUSTRIES, INC.
NOTES TO SUPPLEMENTAL CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
MARKETABLE SECURITIES. The Company purchases marketable securities
for investment purposes which are recorded at the lower of cost or market. The
Company includes gains and losses incurred in connection with marketable
securities in interest and other income. In 1992, the Company realized gains
on marketable securities purchased and subsequently sold during the year. The
Company currently holds no equity securities as defined under the provisions of
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 115, "Accounting for
Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities."
OTHER CURRENT ASSETS. Inventories consisting principally of equipment
parts, compost materials and supplies are valued under a method which
approximates the lower of cost (first-in, first-out) or market. At December
31, 1994 and 1993, other current assets included inventories of $2,056,000 and
$1,769,000, respectively.
PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT. Property and equipment are recorded at cost.
Expenditures for major additions and improvements are capitalized, while minor
replacements, maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. When
property is retired or otherwise disposed of, the cost and accumulated
depreciation are removed from the accounts and any resulting gain or loss is
reflected in current operations.
The Company revises the estimated useful lives of property and
equipment acquired through its business acquisitions as of the effective date
of the acquisition to conform with its policies regarding property and
equipment. Depreciation is provided over the estimated useful lives of the
assets involved using the straight-line method. The estimated useful lives
are: twenty to forty years for buildings and improvements, five to fifteen
years for vehicles and equipment and five years for furniture and fixtures.
Landfills are stated at cost and are depleted based on consumed airspace.
Landfill improvements include direct costs incurred to obtain a landfill permit
and direct costs incurred to construct and develop the site, and these costs
are also depleted based on consumed airspace. No general and administrative
costs are capitalized as landfills and landfill improvements.
ACCRUED LIABILITIES. The Company provides accruals for estimated
insurance claims for the self-funded portion of its insurance plans. At
December 31, 1994 and 1993, insurance claims reserves of $926,000 and $665,000,
respectively, were included in accrued liabilities.
ACCRUED ENVIRONMENTAL AND LANDFILL COSTS. Accrued environmental and
landfill costs include landfill site closure and post-closure costs. Landfill
site closure and post-closure costs include costs to be incurred for final
closure of the landfills and costs for providing required post-closure
monitoring and maintenance of landfills. These costs are accrued based on
consumed airspace. The Company estimates its future cost requirements for
closure and post-closure monitoring and maintenance for its solid waste
facilities based on its interpretation of the technical standards of the United
States Environmental Protection Agency's Subtitle D regulations. These
estimates do not take into account discounts for the present value of such
total estimated costs. Environmental costs are accrued by the Company through
a charge to income in the appropriate period for known and anticipated
environmental liabilities.
INCOME TAXES. The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance
with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 109, "Accounting
for Income Taxes," which the Company adopted in 1992, the effect of which was
not material. Accordingly, deferred income taxes have been provided to show
the effect of temporary differences between the recognition of revenues and
expenses for financial and income tax reporting purposes and between the tax
basis of assets and liabilities and their reported amounts in the financial
statements.
GOODWILL. Goodwill is amortized over the lesser of the estimated life
or forty years, on a straight-line basis. Amortization expense related to
goodwill and other intangible assets was $423,000, $244,000 and $142,000 in
1994, 1993 and 1992, respectively.

<PAGE> 11
REPUBLIC WASTE INDUSTRIES, INC.
NOTES TO SUPPLEMENTAL CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
The Company continually evaluates whether events and circumstances
have occurred that may warrant revision of the estimated useful life of
goodwill and other long-lived assets or whether the remaining balance of
goodwill should be evaluated for possible impairment. The Company uses an
estimate of the related undiscounted net income over the remaining life of
goodwill in measuring whether the goodwill is recoverable.
ACCOUNTING FOR ACQUISITIONS. At the time the Company acquires a
business to be accounted for as a purchase, the Company allocates the purchase
price to assets and liabilities based on its best estimate of the fair value of
each asset and liability. For a one-year period subsequent to the acquisition
date, the estimates are refined if additional facts become known regarding
contingencies that existed at the date of acquisition. At the end of the
one-year period following the date of acquisition, the estimates are finalized
and no other entries are made to purchase accounting.
Acquisitions accounted for under the pooling-of-interests method of
accounting are included retroactively in the Company's financial statements as
if the companies had operated as one entity since inception.
STATEMENTS OF CASH FLOWS. The Company considers all highly liquid
investments with purchased maturities of three months or less to be cash
equivalents. The effect of non-cash transactions related to business
combinations, as discussed in Note 3, and other non-cash transactions are
excluded from the statements of cash flows.
FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION. All asset and liability accounts of
foreign subsidiaries are translated to U.S. dollars at the rate of exchange in
effect at the balance sheet date. All income statement accounts of foreign
subsidiaries are translated at average exchange rates during the year.
Resulting translation adjustments arising from these translations are charged
or credited directly to stockholders' equity. Gain or loss on foreign currency
transactions are included in income as incurred. There was no material effect
on foreign cash balances of foreign currency translations in 1994 and 1993.
All of the Company's foreign subsidiaries are a part of the hazardous waste
services segment of the Company. In connection with the spin-off of the
hazardous waste services segment, as discussed in Note 2, this segment of the
Company's business has been accounted for as a discontinued operation.
FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS. The book values of cash, trade
accounts receivable, trade accounts payable and financial instruments included
in other current assets and other assets approximate their fair values
principally because of the short-term maturities of these instruments. The
fair value of the Company's long-term debt is estimated based on the current
rates offered to the Company for debt of similar terms and maturities. Under
this method the Company's fair value of long-term debt was not significantly
different than the stated value at December 31, 1994 and 1993.
In the normal course of business, the Company has letters of credit,
performance bonds and other guarantees which are not reflected in the
accompanying supplemental consolidated balance sheets. The Company's
management believes that the likelihood of performance under these financial
instruments is minimal and expects no material losses to occur in connection
with these financial instruments.
CONCENTRATIONS OF CREDIT RISK. Concentrations of credit risk with
respect to trade receivables are limited due to the wide variety of customers
and markets into which the Company's services are provided, as well as their
dispersion across many different geographic areas. As a result, as of December
31, 1994, the Company does not consider itself to have any significant
concentrations of credit risk.
2. DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS
SPIN-OFF OF THE HAZARDOUS WASTE SERVICES SEGMENT IN 1994. In July
1994, the Company announced the contemplation of a plan to exit the hazardous
waste services segment of the environmental industry, and in October 1994, the
Board of Directors authorized management to pursue such plan, subject to final
approval from the Board of Directors and the resolution of certain legal
10

NOTES TO SUPPLEMENTAL CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
and financial requirements. The plan provides for the combination of the
Company's hazardous waste services operations in its wholly-owned subsidiary,
RESI, and the distribution of the stock of RESI to the stockholders of record
of Republic (the "Distribution"). On April 26, 1995, Republic stockholders
received one share of common stock of RESI for every five shares of Common
Stock of Republic owned on April 21, 1995 in connection with the spin-off of
RESI. Approximately 5.4 million RESI shares were distributed to Republic
stockholders. RESI's common stock commenced trading on the Nasdaq National
Market on April 27, 1995 under the trading symbol "RESI." The Company has had
no direct ownership interest in RESI since the Distribution.
The hazardous waste services segment of the Company's business has
been accounted for as a discontinued operation and, accordingly, the
accompanying supplemental consolidated financial statements of the Company have
been restated to report separately the net assets and operating results of
these discontinued operations. A summary of the net assets of this segment is

REPUBLIC WASTE INDUSTRIES, INC.
NOTES TO SUPPLEMENTAL CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
In connection with the Distribution, the Company has entered into the
Distribution Agreement with RESI which sets forth the terms of the
Distribution. Under this agreement, Republic contributed the intercompany
balance to RESI's equity at the date of the Distribution. In April 1995,
Republic contributed approximately $2.5 million to RESI to repay certain
indebtedness of RESI and to provide working capital to RESI. Additionally, the
Company reclassified approximately $36.3 million to retained earnings from
additional paid-in capital in 1995 to effect the spin-off under Delaware law.
As a result of these transactions, the Company's equity at the date of the
Distribution was reduced by approximately $23.0 million.
The Company has also entered into various agreements with RESI which
govern certain matters between the two parties such as ongoing corporate
services to be provided by the Company to RESI, insurance coverage for RESI for
a certain period after the date of the Distribution, treatment of various tax
matters for periods through the date of the Distribution, responsibility for
any adjustments as a result of audit by any taxing authority and
indemnification between both parties. Republic has agreed to continue to
provide certain corporate services, including insurance, administration, human
resources management, financial reporting and tax, legal and environmental
engineering services to RESI after the Distribution until terminated by either
party. The Corporate Services Agreement and the Tax Sharing Agreement are
expected to be terminated by the end of 1995. During 1994, 1993 and 1992, the
Company allocated expenses for these services to RESI totaling $851,000,
$839,000 and $739,000, respectively, on a basis that approximated the cost of
actual services provided.
Since 1992, RESI has participated in the Company's combined risk
management programs for property and casualty insurance and will continue to do
so until the expiration of the Company's existing policies in June 1995. In
1994, 1993 and 1992, the Company charged RESI for annual premiums and reported
losses of $1,678,000, $1,745,000 and $1,116,000, respectively. RESI has agreed
to indemnify the Company against increases in current losses and any future
losses incurred in connection with RESI's participation in these programs.
SALE OF DEMOLITION AND EXCAVATION SUBSIDIARY IN 1992. In 1992, the
Company sold its demolition and excavation subsidiary, Republic Environmental
Services, Inc. ("RES Demolition") and recorded a non-cash loss on disposition
of $17.6 million. This segment of the Company's business was accounted for as
a discontinued operation and, accordingly, the Company's supplemental
consolidated financial statements report separately the operating results of
these discontinued operations through the date of sale in 1992. In 1992,
revenues and net loss of the discontinued operations of RES Demolition were
$2.9 million and $2.7 million, respectively.
3. BUSINESS COMBINATIONS
GENERAL. From January 1, 1992 through December 31, 1994, the Company
acquired five businesses, all of which were accounted for under the purchase
method of accounting with the exception of RESI [formerly known as Stout
Environmental, Inc. ("Stout")], which was accounted for as a
pooling-of-interests. These businesses were acquired for a combination of cash
and shares of the Company's Common Stock. The value of the Common Stock
reflects the market value of the Company's Common Stock at the closing of each
acquisition, adjusted to account for restrictions common to unregistered
securities and for registration rights, if applicable. The final determination
of the cost of certain of the Company's acquisitions is subject to the
resolution of certain contingencies, primarily the determination of contingent
consideration payable as described in Note 9. The operating results of the
acquired businesses accounted for under the purchase method of accounting have
been included in the supplemental consolidated financial statements from the
dates of acquisition.
The following table sets forth the purchase price of the Company's
acquisitions accounted for under the purchase method of accounting (in
thousands):

The following describes each of the acquisitions completed by the
Company in 1994:
LAUGHLIN ENVIRONMENTAL, INC. In February 1994, the Company acquired
Laughlin Environmental, Inc. ("Laughlin"), located in the Houston, Texas area.
Laughlin provides environmental services on a contract basis and serves to
complement the Company's special waste landfill located in the Dallas, Texas
area. Additionally, Laughlin internalized a portion of its operating costs in
1994 through the acquisition of the assets of a subcontractor.
WASTE HANDLING SYSTEMS, INC. In October 1994, the Company acquired
Waste Handling Systems, Inc. ("Waste Handling") which is located in Rutherford
County, North Carolina, approximately 75 miles west of Charlotte. Waste
Handling is a collection operation adjacent to the Company's existing landfill
and collection operation in southwest North Carolina and services collection
routes in a 30 mile radius of Forest City, North Carolina through the
transportation of municipal solid waste.
MIDWEST SANITATION SERVICE, INC. In November 1994, the Company
acquired Midwest Sanitation Service, Inc. ("Midwest"). Midwest is a landfill
and collection operation which was the largest private hauler in North Dakota.
As discussed in Note 9, the Company also paid additional consideration
to the sellers of previously completed acquisitions for the attainment of
certain earnings levels as specified in the respective acquisition agreements.

had the Company owned and operated these businesses as of January 1, 1992.
4. RESTRUCTURING AND UNUSUAL CHARGES
In the fourth quarter of 1993, the Company recorded restructuring and
unusual charges of $10.0 million based on the Company's reevaluation of each of
its solid waste operations. As a result of this reevaluation, the Company
decided to close one of its facilities due to low waste volumes and abandon
its permitting effort at another facility because of limited market opportunity
in that area and delays in the permitting process. In accordance with industry
standards, the Company provides for closure and post-closure over the life of a
facility. Accordingly, the Company fully provided for these costs on the
closed facility. The provision for closure and post-closure and the write-off
of property and equipment and accumulated permitting costs associated with
these facilities totaled $6.6 million. In conjunction with the reevaluation,
the Company also decided to terminate certain contracts and employees. Costs
related to employee relocations and terminations and other contract
terminations totaled $1.2 million. In addition, the Company also reevaluated
its exposure related to litigation and environmental matters and provided
additional accruals aggregating $2.2 million for the costs to defend or settle
certain litigation and environmental matters.

7. ACCRUED ENVIRONMENTAL AND LANDFILL COSTS
The Company owns and operates nine solid waste landfills in the United
States. The Company is responsible for closure and post-closure monitoring and
maintenance costs at these landfills which are currently operating. Closure
and post-closure costs are provided in accordance with Subtitle D regulations.
Estimated aggregate closure and post-closure costs are to be fully accrued for
these landfills at the time that such facilities cease to accept waste and are
closed. Considering existing accruals at the end of 1994, approximately $7.6
million of such costs are to be expensed over the remaining lives of these
facilities. Included with the accrued costs associated with landfills at

In September 1993, the Company entered into a revolving credit
facility agreement with a U.S. commercial bank in the amount of $25,000,000,
which includes a line of credit with $10,000,000 available for standby letters
of credit. At December 31, 1994, the Company had standby letters of credit of
$5,591,000 outstanding under this facility and $6,809,000 available under the
revolving credit facility. In 1995, the Company extended the due date from
September 1996 to December 1997 and increased the availability under this
facility to $35,000,000. The credit agreement requires the Company, among
other restrictions, to meet certain financial ratios and places certain
limitations on dividend payments and other borrowing. As of December 31, 1994,
the Company was in compliance with all covenants under the credit agreement.

9. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
LEGAL PROCEEDINGS. On May 3, 1991, the Company filed an action
against G.I. Industries, Inc. ("GI"), Manuel Asadurian, Sr. and Mike Smith in
the United States District Court for the Central District of California (the
"Court"). The Company requested a declaratory judgment that it did not
anticipatorily breach a merger agreement (the "Merger Agreement") between the
Company and GI and that the Merger Agreement had been properly terminated. The
Company also sought to recover $600,000 from GI, plus interest and costs, with
respect to a certain financial guaranty provided by Republic in 1990 for the
benefit of GI. In response to the Company's action, GI filed a counterclaim
alleging that the Company breached the Merger Agreement and that it had
suffered damages in excess of $16.0 million. In August 1993, the Court
rendered a ruling in favor of Republic and found that GI did not meet its
burden in proving that it could have performed its obligations under the Merger
Agreement. GI appealed that decision in September 1993. In March 1995, the
United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit (the "Court of Appeals")
vacated the August 1993 decision and remanded the case back to the Court for a
hearing on damages. The Company filed a motion for reconsiderations and
suggestion of en banc consideration with the Court of Appeals in an effort to
restore the original ruling denying GI's claim. On May 12, 1995, the Court of
Appeals denied the motion and suggestion. The Company has filed a timely
petition for writ of certiorari with the United States Supreme Court.
Subsequent to the Company's seeking recovery from GI for the guaranty,
GI filed for protection under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code. The Company
is a secured creditor and anticipates a complete recovery of the $600,000, plus
interest and costs, including attorneys' fees.
On November 9, 1992, A&B Investors, Inc. ("A&B") filed an action
against the Company in the District Court of Harris County, Texas alleging,
among other claims, breach of contract and securities fraud. On July 14, 1995,
this matter was resolved in an out-of-court settlement which did not have a
material effect on the Company's results of operations or consolidated
financial position.
Western Waste Industries, Inc. ("Western") filed an action against the
Company and others on July 20, 1990 for various causes of action including
interference with business relations and seeks $24.0 million in damages. The
lawsuit stems from Western's attempts to acquire Best Pak Disposal, Inc. This
case is currently scheduled for trial in late 1995 or early 1996.
While the results of the legal proceedings described above and other
proceedings which arose in the normal course of business cannot be predicted
with certainty, management believes that losses, if any, resulting from the
ultimate resolution of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on
the Company's results of operations or consolidated financial position.

ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS. The Company's solid waste and environmental
services activities are conducted in the context of a developing and changing
statutory and regulatory framework, aggressive government enforcement and a
highly visible political environment. Governmental regulation of the waste
management industry requires the Company to obtain and retain numerous
governmental permits to conduct various aspects of its operations. These
permits are subject to revocation, modification or denial. The costs and other
capital expenditures which may be required to obtain or retain the applicable
permits or comply with applicable regulations could be significant.
In 1992, the Company received notices from Imperial County, California
(the "County") and the California Department of Toxic Substances Control
("DTSC") that spent filter elements (the "Filters") from geothermal power
plants, which had been deposited at the Company's Imperial Landfill for
approximately five years, were classified as hazardous waste under California
environmental regulations. Under United States EPA regulations, the Filters
are not deemed hazardous waste as they are associated with the production of
geothermal energy.
In February 1993, the DTSC denied the Company's October 1992 request
to classify the Filters as "special waste" under California regulations.
DTSC's denial indicated that the Filters met all technical and analytical
requirements for reclassification as a special waste, but that a procedural
requirement related to the timing of the reclassification request was not met.
The Company is currently conducting active discussions with all appropriate
California regulatory agencies in order to seek a variance under California
regulations which will reclassify the Filters as a special waste, irrespective
of the reclassification application submittal timing issue, and allow the
Filters to be left in the landfill. If this occurs, the state, regional and
local regulatory agencies may nevertheless require that the affected area of
the landfill be capped and that the affected area accept no additional waste.
A decision on the reclassification issue is expected by October 1995. In the
event that the variance is not granted, the Regional Water Quality Control
Board and Integrated Waste Management Board will determine what remedial
measures must be taken based on the Filters' classification as a California
hazardous waste. One of those measures could include the removal of the
Filters or the closure of a portion of the landfill.
Management is currently unable to determine (i) whether the waste will
ultimately be classified as hazardous, (ii) what action, if any, will be
required as a result of this issue or (iii) what liability, if any, the Company
will have as a result of this inquiry. In January 1994, the Company filed suit
against the known past and present owners and operators of the geothermal power
plants for all losses, fines and expenses the Company incurs associated with
the resolution of this matter, including loss of airspace at the landfill, in
the United States District Court for the Southern District of California,
alleging claims for CERCLA response costs recovery and intentional
misrepresentation among other claims. The Company seeks to recover actual
expenses and punitive damages. Discovery and regulatory studies are
proceeding. The Company believes it will prevail, but no amounts have been
accrued for any recovery of damages.
Although it is possible that losses exceeding amounts already recorded
may be incurred upon the ultimate resolution of the environmental matters
described above, management believes that such losses, if any, will not have a
material adverse effect on the Company's consolidated results of operations or
consolidated financial position.
OPERATING LEASE COMMITMENTS. The Company and its subsidiaries lease
portions of their premises and certain equipment under various operating lease
agreements. At December 31, 1994, total minimum rental commitments becoming
payable under all operating leases are as follows (in thousands):

Total rental expense incurred under operating leases was $653,000, $544,000 and
$468,000 in 1994, 1993 and 1992, respectively.
POSTRETIREMENT BENEFITS. The Company does not provide postretirement
or postemployment benefits to its employees and, accordingly, has not reflected
any cost arising from the adoption of SFAS No. 106, "Employers' Accounting for
Postretirement Benefits Other Than Pensions" or SFAS No. 112, "Employers'
Accounting for Postemployment Benefits." Effective January 1, 1994, the Company
instituted a defined contribution 401(k) savings plan for employees meeting
certain employment requirements. Under the plan, the Company may, at
its discretion, match a portion of employee contributions based on the
profitability and growth of the Company. No contributions under this plan were
made by the Company in 1994.
CONTINGENT CONSIDERATION. In certain of the business acquisitions
accounted for as purchases, the Company has agreed to issue contingent
consideration in the form of additional shares of the Company's common stock
and, in some cases, additional cash to the sellers of those businesses based on
the attainment of certain earnings levels and other contingencies. During the
years ended December 31, 1994, 1993 and 1992, the Company has issued
approximately 29,000, 160,000 and 186,000 shares of common stock and paid
$623,000, $432,000 and $40,000, respectively, for the attainment of such
earnings levels. These amounts have been capitalized as additional purchase
price. The maximum contingent consideration to be earned over the next of
eight years as of December 31, 1994 consists of approximately 406,000 shares of
the Company's common stock and $412,000. Under the terms of an acquisition
agreement, the Company has agreed to pay additional consideration to the former
owners of a landfill site of a maximum of $2,500,000 upon the expansion of the
landfill airspace by up to 2,500,000 cubic yards.
OTHER MATTERS. At December 31, 1994, the Company had made cash
deposits into escrow accounts which total $735,000 in connection with landfill
closure and certain other obligations, of which $656,000 was included in cash
and cash equivalents and $79,000 was included in other assets. Additionally,
the Company has bonding facilities for the issuance of payment, performance and
bid bonds, of which $1,684,000 in bonds were outstanding at December 31, 1994.
The Company also has facilities available for the issuance of standby letters
of credit, of which $3,980,000 in letters of credit were outstanding at
December 31, 1994.
10. STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY
PREFERRED STOCK. The Company has 5,000,000 authorized shares of
preferred stock, $.01 par value per share, none of which are issued or
outstanding. The Board of Directors has the authority to issue the preferred
stock in one or more series and to establish the rights, preferences and
dividends.
TREASURY STOCK. In October 1993, the Board of Directors authorized
the Company to repurchase up to 1.3 million shares, or 4.8% of its outstanding
Common Stock, through October 1994, as deemed appropriate by management.
Through October 1994, 281,000 shares were repurchased for an aggregate value of
$856,000. In October 1994, the Board of Directors authorized management to
continue the repurchase program and to repurchase up to an additional 1.3
million shares, or 4.8% of its outstanding Common Stock, through October 1995.
The repurchasing of shares is intended to achieve a more favorable balance
between the market supply of the shares and market demand, as well as take
advantage of the relatively low price of the Company's Common Stock.
Repurchases have been effected at prevailing market prices from time to time
on the open market. The repurchased shares represent additions to treasury
stock. In October 1994, the Board of Directors authorized the retirement of
the 281,000 shares held in treasury, which were retired in the fourth quarter
of 1994. In December 1994, 28,993 shares of the Company's Common Stock were
returned to the Company in a settlement with a former owner of one of its
19
<PAGE> 21
REPUBLIC WASTE INDUSTRIES, INC.
NOTES TO SUPPLEMENTAL CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
subsidiaries. These shares represented additions to treasury stock and were
subsequently retired in December 1994. The Company's stock repurchase program
expires in October 1995 and the Company does not currently plan to repurchase
any additional Common Stock.
1991 STOCK OPTION PLAN. In October 1991, the Board of Directors
approved a stock option plan (the "1991 Plan"), which was subsequently
approved by the Company's stockholders at the 1992 Annual Meeting of
Stockholders, under which employees and officers of the Company or any of its
subsidiaries or parent corporations and members of the Board of Directors of
the Company may be awarded options to purchase common shares. A maximum of
5,000,000 common shares, less shares issued or purchased pursuant to the 1990
Stock Option and Stock Purchase Plan (the "1990 Plan") as discussed below, have
been reserved for issuance to participants in the 1991 Plan in the form of
stock options. The option price under the 1991 Plan is to be determined by the
Board of Directors but shall not be less than the fair market value of the
common shares on the date the stock option is granted. Options are subject to
adjustment upon certain changes in the capital structure of the Company, such
as a stock dividend, stock split or other similar events.
1990 STOCK OPTION AND STOCK PURCHASE PLAN. In April 1990, the Board
of Directors approved a stock option and stock purchase plan for certain key
employees, directors, consultants and advisors. A maximum of 2,500,000 shares
of common stock were reserved for issuance to participants in the plan in the
form of either stock options or stock purchases, as determined by the
Compensation Committee. Options granted under the plan expire ten years from
the date of grant and vest over varying periods as determined by the
Compensation Committee. During the year ended December 31, 1990, 700,000
shares were purchased at $2.50 to $4.50 per share. When shares were purchased
under the 1990 Plan, the participant paid the par value of the shares in cash,
and issued a nonrecourse promissory note to the Company for the balance of the
purchase price. These promissory notes along with interest are due ten years
from the date of issuance and are collateralized by the shares purchased.
During 1992, the Company received payment of $648,000 on notes receivable
arising from stock purchase agreements pursuant to the 1990 Plan. The 1990
Plan has been replaced by the 1991 Plan, as discussed above.
Activity under the Company's 1990 and 1991 stock option plans during
each of the two years ended December 31, 1994 are summarized as follows:

11. INCOME TAXES
Kertz elected S-corporation status for income tax reporting
purposes on July 1, 1993 at which time deferred tax balances were eliminated
through a credit to the deferred income tax provision. Since July 1, 1993, net
income and the related differences that arise in the recording of income and
expense items for financial reporting and income tax reporting purposes have
been included in the individual tax returns of the former stockholders of
Kertz. Upon the closing of the merger transaction on August 28, 1995, Kertz
was no longer eligible for S-corporation status. Deferred income taxes
recorded at closing upon the change in the tax status were not material to
the supplemental consolidated financial statements.
The components of the income tax provision related to continuing
operations are shown below (in thousands):

In addition to the above, the Company recorded an income tax benefit
of $210,000 and $123,000 in 1993 and 1992, respectively, related to its
discontinued operations.
In 1992, the Company changed its method of accounting for income taxes
from the method required under SFAS No. 96 to the method required under SFAS
No. 109. Since the approach under both statements is similar, there was no
significant income effect of the change on the recording of income taxes.
Under SFAS No. 109, deferred tax assets or liabilities at the end of each
period are determined by applying the current tax rate to the difference
between the financial reporting and income tax basis of assets and liabilities.

REPUBLIC WASTE INDUSTRIES, INC.
NOTES TO SUPPLEMENTAL CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
Net operating loss ("NOL") carryforwards are recognized under SFAS No.
109 unless it is "more likely than not" that they will not be realized. In
1993, the Company recorded a $1,242,000 valuation allowance related to the
realization of deferred tax assets generated as a result of the 1993
restructuring and unusual charges. This valuation allowance was recorded due
to the uncertainty surrounding the future utilization of such deferred tax
assets. In 1994, the valuation allowance was eliminated based on the expected
realization of such deferred tax assets.
In the years immediately following an acquisition, the Company
provides income taxes at the statutory income tax rate applied to pre-tax
income. As part of its tax planning to reduce effective tax rates and cash
outlays for taxes, the Company employs a number of strategies such as combining
entities to reduce state income taxes, claiming tax credits not previously
claimed and recapturing taxes previously paid by acquired companies. At such
time as these reductions in the Company's deferred tax liabilities are
determined to be realizable, the impact of the reduction is recorded as tax
reserve adjustments in the tax provision. The Company's unaudited income tax
provision for the first quarter of 1995 was offset by such adjustments. The
Company's unaudited income tax provision of approximately 38% for the three and
six months ended June 30, 1994 was offset by reductions in valuation allowance,
as well as tax reserve adjustments.
A reconciliation of the statutory federal income tax rate to the
Company's effective tax rate as reported in the accompanying supplemental
consolidated statements of operations is shown below:

The Company has entered into an agreement to lease office space for
one of its subsidiaries with the former owner of this subsidiary who is a
current officer of this subsidiary. The Company also utilizes companies
affiliated with former owners of acquired businesses who are current officers
of the Company's subsidiaries for hauling and other services. Aggregate
payments for leases and such services were $132,000, $1,139,000 and $827,000 in
1994, 1993 and 1992, respectively. In September 1993, the Company internalized
a portion of these hauling services through the acquisition of substantially
all of the assets of a hauling company owned by an officer of a subsidiary of
the Company for $370,000 cash.

(BERMUDA) LTD. AND HARRIS W. HUDSON. On May 21, 1995, the Company agreed to
issue and sell in aggregate 8,350,000 shares of Common Stock and warrants to
purchase an additional 16,700,000 shares of Common Stock to Mr. H. Wayne
Huizenga, Westbury (Bermuda) Ltd. (a Bermuda corporation controlled by Mr.
Michael G. DeGroote, then Chairman of the Board, President and Chief Executive
Officer of Republic) and Mr. Harris W. Hudson, and certain of their assigns for
an aggregate purchase price of $37,575,000. The warrants are exercisable at
prices ranging from $4.50 to $7.00 per share effective August 3, 1995. In July

(B) PRIVATE PLACEMENT TRANSACTIONS. In July 1995, the Company sold
5,400,000 shares of Common Stock in a private placement transaction for $13.25
per share, resulting in net proceeds of approximately $70 million after
deducting fees and commissions. In September 1995, the Company sold 5,000,000
shares of Common Stock in an additional private placement transaction for
$20.25 per share resulting in net proceeds of approximately $100 million after
deducting fees and commissions.
As a result of the transactions in (A) and (B) above, the Company
received approximately $234 million in cash in July, August and September 1995.
The Company used a portion of these proceeds to repay all outstanding
borrowings under its revolving line of credit facility totaling approximately
$15.5 million plus interest expense.
(C) ACQUISITION OF HUDSON MANAGEMENT CORPORATION AND ENVIROCYCLE,
INC. (the "Hudson Companies"). On August 3, 1995, the Company issued 8.0
million shares of Common Stock in exchange for all of the outstanding shares of
common stock of the Hudson Companies, each of which is owned by Mr. Hudson.
The Hudson Companies, as the third largest solid waste management company in
Florida, provide solid waste collection and recycling services to commercial,
industrial and residential customers. The acquisition will be accounted for
using the purchase method of accounting. Subsequent to the acquisition, the
Company repaid substantially all of the outstanding debt of the Hudson
Companies which totaled approximately $11 million.
(D) ACQUISITION OF SOUTHLAND ENVIRONMENTAL SERVICES. On August 24,
1995, Republic entered into a definitive agreement to acquire all of the
outstanding common stock of Southland Environmental Services, Inc. in exchange
for 2.6 million shares of Common Stock of Republic. Southland provides solid
waste collection services in the Northeast Florida area serving over 70,000
residential and commercial customers. Southland also owns a transfer station,
a construction and demolition landfill and provides composting and recycling
services. This acquisition is expected to close in October 1995 and will be
accounted for under the pooling-of-interests method of accounting.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS
To the Boards of Directors of
Hudson Management Corporation
and Envirocycle, Inc.:
We have audited the accompanying combined balance sheets of Hudson
Management Corporation and subsidiaries and Envirocycle, Inc. (a Florida
corporation and a Florida S-corporation, respectively, affiliated through common
ownership) as of September 30, 1994 and 1993, and the related combined
statements of income, stockholders' equity and cash flows for each of the three
years in the period ended September 30, 1994. These financial statements are the
responsibility of the Companies' 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 Hudson Management
Corporation and subsidiaries and Envirocycle, Inc. as of September 30, 1994 and
1993, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the
three years in the period ended September 30, 1994, in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles.

HUDSON MANAGEMENT CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
AND ENVIROCYCLE, INC.
NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(INFORMATION WITH RESPECT TO THE JUNE 30, 1995 AND 1994 PERIODS IS UNAUDITED)
(1) SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:
Principles of Combination --
The combined financial statements include the accounts of Hudson Management
Corporation and its wholly-owned subsidiaries and Envirocycle, Inc. (together,
the "Companies"), which are affiliated through common ownership. All material
intercompany transactions between Hudson Management Corporation, its
subsidiaries and Envirocycle, Inc. have been eliminated.
The accounts of Envirocycle, Inc. have been combined on the basis of a
calendar year and include the years ended December 31, 1994 and 1993 and the
period from commencement of operations (March 23, 1992) through December 31,
1992. For comparative purposes, the unaudited combined statements of income and
cash flows for the nine month periods ended June 30, 1995 and 1994 include the
accounts of Envirocycle, Inc. for the periods from October 1 through June 30.
In the opinion of management, the unaudited combined financial statements
contain all adjustments, consisting of only normal recurring adjustments,
necessary to present fairly the combined financial position of the Companies at
June 30, 1995, and the combined results of their operations and cash flows for
the nine months ended June 30, 1995 and 1994.
Revenue Recognition --
Collection services may be billed up to four months in advance. Revenue on
such advance billings is deferred until services are performed. Such amounts are
included in deferred revenue and other credits in the accompanying combined
balance sheets.
Property and Equipment --
The Companies provide for depreciation using the straight-line method over
the following estimated useful lives:
<TABLE>
<S> <C>
Vehicles.............................................. 5-7 years
Containers and compactors............................. 10 years
Equipment............................................. 5-7 years
Leasehold improvements................................ 5-7 years
Buildings............................................. 31.5-40 years
</TABLE>
Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense when incurred. Additions and
major renewals are capitalized.
Depreciation and amortization expense for property and equipment for the
years ended September 30, 1994, 1993 and 1992 was $2,452,000, $2,216,000 and
$2,039,000, respectively.
Intangible Assets --
Intangible assets consist of the cost of purchased businesses in excess of
the market value of net assets acquired (goodwill), the costs of certain
franchise service areas obtained as part of businesses acquired, and noncompete
agreements obtained from former owners and management of businesses acquired.
32
<PAGE> 34
HUDSON MANAGEMENT CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
AND ENVIROCYCLE, INC.
NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED)
Intangible assets are amortized using the straight-line method over their
estimated useful lives and are comprised of the following as of September 30,
1994 and 1993 (in thousands):
<TABLE>
<CAPTION>
USEFUL LIVES 1994 1993
------------ ------ ------
<S> <C> <C> <C>
Goodwill.................................... 40 years $2,585 $2,585
Franchise agreements........................ 4-16 years 666 674
Customer lists.............................. 5 years 10 10
Noncompete agreements....................... 5-15 years 51 311
------ ------
3,312 3,580
Less accumulated amortization............... (755) (911)
------ ------
$2,557 $2,669
====== ======
</TABLE>
The Companies continually evaluate whether events and circumstances have
occurred that may warrant revision of the estimated useful life of intangible
assets or whether the remaining balance of intangible assets should be evaluated
for possible impairment. The Companies use an estimate of the related
undiscounted net income over the remaining life of intangible assets in
measuring whether the intangible assets are recoverable.
Amortization expense for intangible assets was $162,000, $279,000 and
$603,000 in 1994, 1993 and 1992, respectively.
Accrued Liabilities --
The Companies accrue estimated insurance claims for the self-funded portion
of their workers' compensation and health insurance plans. At September 30, 1994
and 1993, insurance claim reserves of $2,101,000 and $2,199,000, respectively,
were included in accrued liabilities.
Income Taxes --
Hudson Management Corporation accounts for income taxes in accordance with
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 109, "Accounting for
Income Taxes". Accordingly, deferred income taxes have been provided for the
effect of temporary differences between the income tax bases of assets and
liabilities and their reported amounts in the combined financial statements.
For the nine months ended June 30, 1995 and 1994, income taxes have been
provided based upon Hudson Management Corporation's anticipated effective annual
income tax rate.
Envirocycle, Inc. has elected S-corporation status for income tax reporting
purposes since its inception in 1992. Therefore, since that date, net income and
the related differences that arise in the recording of income and expense items
for financial reporting and income tax reporting purposes are included in the
individual tax returns of the stockholders of Envirocycle, Inc.
Upon closing of the merger transactions described in Note 10, Envirocycle,
Inc. will no longer be eligible for S-corporation status. At that time, deferred
income taxes will be recorded in accordance with SFAS No. 109 and an adjustment
to record Envirocycle, Inc. retained earnings as a capital contribution will be
recorded. Although the ultimate amount is not presently determinable, if
deferred taxes were recorded at June 30, 1995, retained earnings would be
decreased by approximately $46,000 (unaudited). In addition, $1,453,000
(unaudited) of retained earnings at June 30, 1995 would have been reclassified
to additional paid-in capital.

The unaudited pro forma adjustment to reflect income taxes for Envirocycle,
Inc. included in the accompanying combined statements of income is for
informational purposes only. Income taxes have been provided at an estimated
effective tax rate of 40%.
Environmental Costs--
The Companies are subject to environmental laws and regulations that have
been enacted in response to technological advances and increased concern over
environmental issues. These regulations are administered by the Environmental
Protection Agency and various other federal, state and local environmental,
transportation, health and safety agencies. The Companies have not incurred any
material environmental costs nor experienced any significant regulatory problems
in the past and believe that they are in substantial compliance with all
applicable rules and regulations. Future environmental liabilities, if any,
would be recorded in the period in which they become probable and can be
reasonably estimated.
Concentrations of Credit Risk --
The Companies provide solid waste collection and recycling services to
commercial, industrial and residential customers located in the State of Florida
primarily through franchise agreements with municipalities. Depending on the
terms of the franchise agreements, the Companies either bill services to the
municipality or directly to the customer. Deposits are generally received from
residential customers billed directly by the Companies. As of September 30, 1994
and 1993, approximately 33% and 44% of outstanding accounts receivable,
respectively, were due directly from municipalities while the remainder was due
directly from individual customers. The Companies continually evaluate the
collectibility of accounts receivable and maintain allowances for potential
credit losses. Overall, the Companies believe their credit exposure is minimal
given the creditworthiness of municipal customers and the wide dispersion of
non-municipal bill customers.
Additionally, the Companies provide services to a major municipality
customer which comprised 25%, 23% and 26% of combined revenues in 1994, 1993 and
1992, respectively.

(4) RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS:
The Companies lease various office and garage space and land from a
stockholder. The operating leases expire at various dates through September 1998
and provide for monthly rentals of approximately $30,000 with a provision for a
rental increase each year based on the consumer price index.
During the years presented, there were funds advanced to and received from
a stockholder. At September 30, 1994 and 1993, there were notes payable to such
stockholder totaling $1,370,000 and $234,000, respectively (see Note 3).
Hudson Management Corporation has utilized the personal guarantee and
certain assets of a stockholder as well as certain assets of a person related to
Companies' stockholders as additional collateral on a significant portion of
their debt (see Notes 3 and 10).
(5) LEASES:
In addition to the related party leases discussed above, the Companies
lease corporate office space at a base rental amount of $4,300 per month through
September 1995. Also, the Companies must pay their share of the operating
expenses for the building which were estimated to be $1,300 per month through
September 1995. Subsequent to September 30, 1994, this lease was renewed (and
additional space was obtained) for a base rental amount of $4,700 per month
through January 2000, plus a share of building operating expenses estimated to
be $2,900 per month. Total rent expense for the years ended September 30, 1994,
1993 and 1992 was approximately $482,000, $384,000 and $372,000, respectively
(including related party leases of approximately $350,000, $317,000 and
$304,000, respectively).

Prepaid expenses and other as of September 30, 1994 include current income
taxes receivable totaling approximately $464,000.
The Companies federal income tax returns for 1993 are currently under
examination by the Internal Revenue Service. In the opinion of the Companies'
management, the outcome of such examination will not have a material impact on
the combined financial position and results of operations of the Companies.
(7) COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES:
The Companies provide commercial, industrial and residential waste
collection and recycling services under terms of contracts or franchise
agreements with several governmental agencies (municipalities and counties).
Among other things, these contracts and agreements specify the terms and
conditions of performance, rates, geographical boundaries and types of services
to be provided. The contracts and agreements expire at various times through
September 2002 and, in most cases, must be competitively bid for renewal.
The Companies have adopted a maximum premium group health insurance plan.
The plan calls for the Companies to pay approximately $65 per employee each
month to a third party administrator. This payment is used to purchase stop loss
insurance, group life insurance, and pay the fees of the third party
administrator, who processes all claims. The Companies are then responsible for
paying all claims up to the stop loss limits which are $30,000 per year per
individual or an aggregate amount equal to a maximum premium amount per
employee, per year. The Companies have accrued their estimate of the claims
liability under the plan which management believes is adequate to cover claims
incurred as of September 30, 1994 and 1993.
The Companies participate in a workers' compensation employers' self
insurance plan. The Companies' maximum liability under the self insurance plan
is limited to a percentage of the standard premium, as defined. Reserves are
estimated for both reported and unreported claims using industry loss
development factors. Revisions to estimated reserves are recorded in the period
in which they become known. The estimated workers' compensation reserves as of
September 30, 1994 and 1993 totaling $2,071,000 and $2,169,000, respectively,
represent management's best estimate, and in the opinion of the Companies'
management, any future adjustments to estimated reserves will not have a
material impact on the combined financial statements.
At September 30, 1994, the Companies had a $2.0 million letter of credit
line with a bank of which $1.0 million has been used to guarantee the payment of
claims under the Companies' workers' compensation self insurance plan.

NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED)
In the normal course of business, the Companies have performance and surety
bonds which are not reflected in the accompanying combined balance sheets. The
aggregate value of these off balance sheet financial instruments totaled
approximately $5.3 million at September 30, 1994. The Companies' management
believes that the likelihood of performance under these financial instruments is
minimal and expects no material losses to occur in connection with these
financial instruments.
The Companies are involved in certain legal actions and claims arising in
the ordinary course of business. Based on advice of legal counsel, it is the
opinion of management that such litigation and claims will be resolved without
material effect on the Companies' combined financial position.
(8) 401(K) SAVINGS PLAN:
Employees of the Companies may participate in a Section 401(k) savings
plan, whereby the employees may elect to make contributions pursuant to a salary
reduction agreement upon meeting certain age and length-of-service requirements.
Effective January 1, 1995, the Companies elected to provide an employer matching
contribution of 10% of each employee's contribution for fiscal 1995. The
Companies made no matching contribution to the plan in 1994, 1993 or 1992.
(9) STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY:

outstanding capital stock of the Companies for eight million shares of Republic
common stock. The merger agreements were consummated on August 3, 1995 upon

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements for the years ended September 30,
1994 and 1993 include the accounts of Southland Environmental Services,
Inc. ("SES") (formerly Southland Environmental Systems, Inc.) and its
wholly-owned subsidiaries (the "Company"). The financial statements for
the year ended September 30, 1993 were prepared on a combined basis from
October 1, 1992 through March 31, 1993 and on a consolidated basis from
April 1, 1993 through September 30, 1993. All significant intercompany
transactions and balances have been eliminated.
On April 1, 1993, the majority stockholder contributed his entire interest
in the combined companies to the capital of SES, a newly formed holding
company. The capital contribution was accounted for at historical cost in
a manner similar to a pooling of interest. Immediately after the
contribution of the majority stockholder, the holding company issued stock
to the minority stockholders for their entire interests in two of the
combined companies in a transaction accounted for as a purchase. The
total cost of the acquisition was $701,400 which exceeded the net assets
by $597,976. Equipment values were increased by $118,832 based on
appraised value and will be amortized over the average estimated remaining
useful lives of the assets. The cost in excess of net assets acquired was
$523,860. Deferred income taxes of $44,716 have been provided for the
difference between the assigned values and the tax basis of the acquired
assets.
In the opinion of management, the unaudited consolidated financial
statements contain all adjustments, consisting of only normal recurring
adjustments, necessary to present fairly the consolidated financial
position of the Company at June 30, 1995, and the consolidated results
of their operations and cash flows for the nine months ended
June 30, 1995 and 1994.
Cash
Cash includes all cash balances and highly liquid investments in money
market accounts. The Company places its temporary cash investments with a
high quality financial institution. At times, such investments may be in
excess of FDIC insurance limits. The Company does not believe it is
exposed to any significant credit risk on cash and cash equivalents.
Inventory
Inventories consisting primarily of recyclable material are valued at the
lower of cost, determined on the first-in, first-out method, or market
and are classified as other current assets in the consolidated financial
statements.
Property, Plant and Equipment
The cost of property, plant, and equipment is depreciated over the
estimated useful lives of the related assets. Depreciation is computed
using the straight-line method for financial reporting purposes and on the
modified and accelerated cost recovery systems for income tax purposes.

Income Taxes
Income taxes are provided for the tax effects of transactions reported in
the financial statements and consist of taxes currently due plus deferred
taxes. Deferred taxes are recognized for temporary differences between
the basis of assets and liabilities for financial statement and income tax
purposes.
Deferred Revenue
Amounts billed to customers in advance of the service provided are
deferred and are not recognized as earned revenue until the period in
which the service is performed.
Amortization
Costs in excess of net assets acquired of $523,860 resulted from the
acquisition of the minority interest in two subsidiary companies during
1993, and is being amortized on the straight-line basis over twenty years.
Accumulated amortization was $39,292 and $13,096 at September 30, 1994 and
1993, respectively.
Other intangibles include costs of $565,656 incurred in connection with
debt acquisition and refinancing, legal fees for organization and
acquisition of the parent and certain subsidiaries, noncompete agreements
and franchise rights. Costs are being amortized on the straight-line
method over periods from four to twenty years. Accumulated amortization
for the years ended September 30, 1994 and 1993, was $368,827 and
$280,119, respectively.

During 1994, the contract with the City was amended to permit the
establishment of an additional processing facility on Company owned land.
The City agreed to reimburse the Company for the construction cost of the
new facility not to exceed $650,000. The agreement provides for immediate
cash payments of $270,000 and execution of a note to the Company payable

waste composting facility. Florida law permits a sales tax exemption for
qualified resource recovery equipment as defined in state statutes and
certified by the Florida Department of Environmental Protection ("DEP").
DEP has certified all equipment listed on the application as qualifying
for the exemption. The refund amount was recognized as a reduction of the
cost basis of the qualifying assets. Additionally, refundable taxes
includes Federal income tax deposits of $56,261 at September 30, 1994.

The Industrial Development Revenue Bond was issued to a subsidiary and is
guaranteed by the Company's majority stockholder and two other
subsidiaries. The Bond contains various financial covenants pertaining to
the maintenance of net worth, ratio of total liabilities to net worth,
ratio of net income and noncash items to current maturities of long-term
debt, long-term debt limit, and key man life insurance. The Company was
in compliance with all covenants at September 30, 1994, and 1993.
A subsidiary acquired certain assets and assumed certain liabilities of a
recycling company during 1991 in a business combination accounted for as a
purchase. The acquisition agreement provided that the purchase price
could be increased by a maximum of $204,269 as determined by gross profits
of the subsidiary through December 31, 1994. During 1994, in settlement
of claims made by the previous owner, the acquisition agreement was
modified to eliminate all adjustments to the purchase price based on gross
profits and increase the purchase price by $75,901. The additional cost
was recognized as an increase in equipment values based upon appraisal at
the date of acquisition and will be amortized over the average estimated
remaining useful lives of the assets.

9. INCOME TAXES - Continued
Effective March 31, 1993, the combined companies terminated their election
to be taxed under Subsection S of the Internal Revenue Code. Prior to the
termination, the companies generally did not pay corporate income taxes.
Instead, the stockholders were liable for individual income taxes on their
respective share of each company's taxable income. Generally, the
stockholders funded tax payments with dividends from the companies.
The unaudited pro forma adjustment to reflect income taxes for
S-corporation earnings included in the accompanying consolidated statements
of income is for informational purposes only. Income taxes have been
provided at an estimated effective tax rate of 40%.

10. CUMULATIVE EFFECT ON PRIOR YEAR OF CHANGE IN AN ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLE
Effective April 1, 1993, the Company adopted FASB Statement 109,
Accounting for Income Taxes, which requires an asset and liability
approach to financial accounting and reporting for income taxes. Under
this method, deferred income taxes are recognized for the tax consequences
of "temporary differences" by applying enacted statutory tax rates
applicable to future years to differences between the financial statement
carrying amounts and the tax basis of existing assets and liabilities.
The cumulative effect of the change for periods prior to April 1, 1993,
was $461,442 and is included as a charge to income in 1993.

11. PROFIT SHARING PLAN
The Company has a 401(k) profit sharing/savings plan covering all
employees meeting age and length of service requirements. Employees may
elect to make contributions of up to 10% of their compensation pursuant to
a salary reduction agreement. The Company has elected to make a
discretionary matching contribution not to exceed 3% of the employee's
compensation. Company matching contributions to the Plan were $50,749 and
$64,926 for the years ended September 30, 1994, and 1993, respectively.
In addition, the Company, at its option, may contribute additional amounts
to the Plan.
12. INSURANCE PLANS
Worker's Compensation
The Company participates in the Employers Self Insurance Fund. Under this
plan, the Company pays a minimum premium for administrative costs which is
expensed when incurred. The Company is also required to maintain a
minimum claim fund deposit of $27,700 which is included in prepaid
expenses on the consolidated financial statements.
Participating companies make periodic payments to the fund for paid claims
up to a maximum amount of 100% of the standard premium plus a loss
conversion of 15% of paid claims. The Company has provided a $276,000
payment bond to guarantee claim payments as required by rules established
by the fund trustees.
As of September 30, 1994, the Company has provided an allowance for all
known significant unpaid or open claims. In the opinion of management,
this insurance plan is adequate to cover loss contingencies based upon the
historical experience of the Company.
Health Insurance
During fiscal year 1994, the Company instituted a self-funded program for
providing health insurance benefits to employees. Aggregate and specific
stop-loss coverage was obtained to limit risk.
Claim payments reached the maximum amount under the aggregate stop-loss
coverage prior to September 30, 1994, and no further liability exists
through the policy year ended October 31, 1994.

Rental expense for all operating leases amounted to $154,622 and $181,427
for the years ended September 30, 1994 and 1993, respectively.
At September 30, 1993, the Company had outstanding payment/performance
bonds of $2,261,000 issued primarily in connection with landfill and waste
collection operating performance and participation in the Employers Self
Insurance Worker's Compensation Fund. The payment/performance bonds are
collateralized by a $275,000 bank letter of credit.
A subsidiary engaged in operating a construction and demolition landfill
is party to a depletion agreement with the prior owners of the property
providing for the payment of a fee based upon the tons of debris accepted
at the landfill. In addition, the subsidiary has entered into an
agreement with the county which provides for payment of a host fee based
upon the tons of debris accepted at the landfill. Total fees paid for
1994 and 1993 were $366,524 and $351,861, respectively. The company has
also granted the prior owners of the property the option, for a period of
ten years after the landfill reaches capacity, to reacquire the 89 acre
site for an amount equal to the greater of the remaining principal balance
due under the purchase money mortgage between the parties or $100 per
acre.
Two subsidiaries of the Company provide services to the City of
Jacksonville which represents more than 10% of the revenues of the
consolidated group. These revenues represented 25.0% and 30.2% in 1994
and 1993, respectively.

SOUTHLAND ENVIRONMENTAL SERVICES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
13. COMMITMENTS & CONTINGENCIES - Continued
Financial instruments which potentially expose the Company to
concentration of credit risk consist primarily of accounts receivable.
Management believes these risks are limited due to the large number of
customers and contracts with municipalities along with generally short
payment terms.
The Company is subject to certain federal, state and local environmental
laws and regulations. The Company has not experienced any significant
regulatory problems, is not involved in litigation over environmental
matters, and believes it is in substantial compliance with all applicable
environmental laws and regulations. No provision for anticipated future
costs of environmental remediation has been made and such costs, if any,
are not expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company's
financial position.
14. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS (UNAUDITED)
Subsequent to December 9, 1994, the date of the last auditors' report,
two of the Company's competitors merged. Both of the competing companies
provided residential collection services under contracts with the City of
Jacksonville, Florida. As the result of rulings from governmental
agencies, the surviving competitor was required to divest certain
segments of the residential market.
On March 29, 1995, the Company purchased the residential contract rights
and certain assets from the competitor for $4,030,000. Concurrent with
this transaction, the City of Jacksonville passed an ordinance approving
the transfer of the contract rights to the Company and authorized the
realignment and reduction of the city's residential waste collection
service areas from four to three. The ordinance also extended the
Company's contract through September 30, 2001.
As a result of realignment, the Company realized excess service units.
Collection service providers in the other two service areas paid the
Company $1,176,450 for this excess based on the increased number of service
units in their respective areas.
On August 24, 1995, the Company entered into a definitive agreement with
Republic Waste Industries, Inc. ("Republic") under which the Company would
exchange all of its outstanding common stock for 2.6 million shares of
Republic common stock. The transaction will be accounted for under the
pooling-of-interests method of accounting.

UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED PRO FORMA FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
REPUBLIC WASTE INDUSTRIES, INC., AND SUBSIDIARIES,
HUDSON MANAGEMENT CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES AND ENVIROCYCLE, INC.,
AND SOUTHLAND ENVIRONMENTAL SERVICES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
The following unaudited condensed consolidated pro forma financial statements
include the supplemental consolidated financial statements of Republic Waste
Industries, Inc. and subsidiaries (the "Company") which include the financial
position and results of operations of Kertz Security Systems II, Inc. and
Kertz Security Systems, Inc. ("Kertz"), with which the Company merged in
August 1995. This transaction has been accounted for under the pooling of
interests method of accounting and, accordingly, the Company's supplemental
consolidated financial statements have been retroactively adjusted as if the
Company and Kertz had operated as one entity since inception.
The following unaudited condensed consolidated pro forma balance sheet presents
the pro forma financial position of the Company as of June 30, 1995 as if the
acquisition of Hudson Management Corporation and subsidiaries and Envirocycle,
Inc. ("Hudson") and the pending acquisition of Southland Environmental
Services, Inc. and subsidiaries ("Southland") had been consummated as of June
30, 1995. The balance sheet also contains pro forma adjustments for a series
of equity transactions involving the sale of common stock and warrants (the
"Equity Transactions") as if the Equity Transactions had been consummated as of
June 30, 1995.
The following unaudited condensed consolidated pro forma statements of
operations for the six months ended June 30, 1995 and the year ended December
31, 1994 present the pro forma results of continuing operations of the Company
as if the acquisition of Hudson, the pending acquisition of Southland and the
Equity Transactions had been consummated at the beginning of the periods
presented. The following unaudited condensed consolidated pro forma statements
of operations for the years ended December 31, 1993 and December 31, 1992
present the pro forma results of continuing operations of the Company as if the
pending acquisition of Southland, which will be accounted for under the pooling
of interests method of accounting, had been consummated at the beginning of the
periods presented. These unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial
statements should be read in conjunction with the respective historical and
supplemental consolidated financial statements and notes thereto of the
Company, Hudson and Southland.
The unaudited pro forma income from continuing operations per common and
common equivalent share is based on the combined weighted average number of
common shares and common share equivalents outstanding which include, where
appropriate, the assumed exercise or conversion of warrants and options.
Unless otherwise presented, the difference between primary and fully diluted
earnings per share is not significant. In computing the unaudited pro forma
income from continuing operations per common and common equivalent share, the
Company utilizes the treasury stock method or the modified treasury stock
method where applicable. When using the modified treasury stock method, the
proceeds from the assumed exercise of all warrants and options are assumed to
be applied to first purchase 20% of the outstanding common stock, then to
reduce outstanding indebtedness and the remaining proceeds are assumed to be
invested in U.S. government securities or commercial paper. The increase to
income from continuing operations, net of tax, from such interest savings and
interest income was approximately $874,000 on a primary basis and $0 on a
fully diluted basis for the six months ended June 30, 1995. The increase to
income from continuing operations for the year ended December 31, 1994 was
approximately $1,843,000.
The unaudited condensed consolidated pro forma financial statements were
prepared utilizing the accounting policies of the respective entities as
outlined in their historical financial statements except as described in the
accompanying notes. The acquisition of Hudson was accounted for under the
purchase method of accounting. Accordingly, the unaudited condensed
consolidated pro forma financial statements reflect the Company's preliminary
allocation of purchase price of Hudson which will be subject to further
adjustments as the Company finalizes the allocation of the purchase price in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. The unaudited pro
forma condensed consolidated results of operations do not necessarily reflect
actual results which would have occurred if the acquisition, pending acquisition
or Equity Transactions had taken place on the assumed dates, nor are they
necessarily indicative of the results of future combined operations.
