              Notes to Condensed consolidated financial statements

                                  (Unaudited)



1.   In the opinion of the management of C.H. Heist Corp. and Subsidiaries (the
         Company), the accompanying condensed consolidated financial
         statements contain all normal recurring adjustments necessary to fairly
         present the Company's consolidated financial position as of October 1,
         1995 and December 25, 1994, and the results of its earnings and cash
         flows for the thirteen and forty week periods ended October 1, 1995 and
         the thirteen and thirty nine week periods ended September 25, 1994.

     
     The Company's fiscal year ends on the last Sunday of December. For fiscal
         1995, the Company's fiscal year will include 53 weeks.  Therefore, the 
         period ended October 1, 1995 includes forty weeks while the period 
         ended September 25, 1994 includes thirty nine weeks.

2.   The results of operations for the thirteen and forty week periods ended
         October 1,1995 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be 
         expected for the full year.

3.   The changes in stockholders' equity for the forty week period ended October
         1, 1995 are summarized as follows:

                      Independent Auditors' Review Report


The Board of Directors and Stockholders
C. H. Heist Corp.:


We have reviewed the condensed consolidated balance sheet of C. H. Heist Corp.
and subsidiaries as of October 1, 1995, and the related condensed consolidated
statements of earnings and cash flows for the thirteen and forty week periods
ended October 1,1995 and the thirteen and thirty nine week periods ended
September 25, 1994. These condensed consolidated financial statements are the
responsibility of the Company's management.
        
We conducted our review in accordance with standards established by the
American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. A review of interim
financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures to
financial data, and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and
accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in
accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, the objective of which 
is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a 
whole.  Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.

Based on our review, we are not aware of any material modifications that should
be made to the condensed consolidated financial statements referred to above
for them to be in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

We have previously audited, in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards, the consolidated balance sheet of C. H. Heist Corp. and subsidiaries
as of December 25, 1994, and the related consolidated statements of earnings,
stockholders' equity and cash flows for the year then ended (not presented
herein); and in our report dated February 3, 1995, we expressed an unqualified
opinion on those consolidated financial statements. In our opinion, the
information set forth in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet
as of December 25, 1994, is fairly stated, in all material respects, in
relation to the consolidated balance sheet from which it has been derived.

                  MANAGEMENT'S  DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF THE
               RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND THE FINANCIAL CONDITION




Results of Operations

Sales increased by $215,000 or 0.8% for the quarter and $1,964,000 or 2.6% year
    to date. Sales for the temporary staffing segment decreased $830,000 or 6.8%
    for the quarter and increased $411,000 or 1.3% year-to-date. The decline in
    sales was due to the loss of a few customers that implemented discounted or
    national contracts and our decision in some cases not to provide staffing
    that was low rate, high refill and requiring high staff hours to service.
    Sales in the industrial maintenance segment increased for the quarter
    $1,045,000 or 7.1% and $1,553,000 or 3.6% year-to-date. For the quarter,
    sales increased in the conventional equipment related services and
    insulation sales and application. Year-to-date the increases were due to
    painting, primarily the Peace Bridge painting and lead abatement project,
    conventional equipment related services and insulation sales and
    application.

Gross profit as a percent of sales increased from 14.6% to 15.5% and 10.1% to
    14.2% during the current quarter and year to date, respectively. The
    improvement in the current quarter gross profit was primarily due to the
    Canadian subsidiary margin increase. The Company did not have the
    substantial losses, year to date, that were incurred in 1994's comparable 
    period, by the Heist Field Services division.

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $174,000 or 6.2% for the
    quarter and $1,016,000 or 12.5% for the first nine months. The increases
    resulted from the upgrade of information systems to accommodate planned 
    growth, consulting services to design a management reporting system that 
    follows the Economic Value Added (EVA(R)) model, implementing an automated 
    retrieval system in temporary staffing offices and personnel additions to 
    strengthen the service to our customers.

Interest income increased due to excess cash invested at higher rates in the
    Canadian subsidiary. Interest expense increased due to higher interest rates
    on borrowed funds in the United States and higher average debt levels. Sales
    of fully utilized equipment resulted in a net loss on sale of property,
    plant and equipment during the current quarter and a net gain year to date.
    Intangible assets relating to two acquisitions were fully amortized in 1994,
    resulting in the decrease in amortization expense in 1995. Collectively the
    above caused the increase in other expense, net, compared to 1994 year to
    date.

The effective tax rate is 45.0% for the current quarter and 54.7% year to date.
    State taxes are owed in many states even when losses are incurred. The
    effective rates used in determining income taxes on the condensed
    consolidated statements of earnings are higher than U.S. statutory tax 
    rates, due to the interaction of actual results among the Company's domestic
    and foreign tax jurisdictions compared to the results estimated for the
    year. If earning projections do not change significantly, the Company
    expects that the year to date effective tax rate over the next quarter will
    move towards 49%.

                  MANAGEMENT'S  DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF THE
               RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND THE FINANCIAL CONDITION,
                                   CONTINUED



Financial Condition

The current ratio is 3.2 to 1 for the current fiscal quarter compared to 3.1 to
    1 as of December 25, 1994. The quick ratio is 2.8 to 1 compared to 2.7 to 1
    as of December 25, 1994. Long-term bank line debt increased $1,600,000, in
    this quarter, leaving open credit commitments at Manufacturers and Traders
    Trust Company of $900,000 and at the Royal Bank of Canada of $357,000 (the
    U.S. dollar equivalent).

Cash and cash equivalents increased by $899,000 primarily due to earnings,
    proceeds from the sale of property, plant and equipment, proceeds from
    exercised stock options and positive exchange rate changes, less repayment
    of long term debt.

Capital expenditures for the current fiscal quarter were $2,087,000. Of this
    amount $1,149,000 was for new equipment, $500,000 was for computer equipment
    and software and the remainder for replacement equipment. Capital
    expenditures, year to date, were funded by the net increase in borrowings,
    depreciation and amortization, less financing needed for working capital.
