                    PDG ENVIRONMENTAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                FOR THE THREE AND SIX MONTHS ENDED JULY 31, 1999
                                   (UNAUDITED)

NOTE 1 -- BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The consolidated financial statements include PDG Environmental, Inc. (the
"Corporation") and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. Additionally, the results of
PDG/Philip, L.P. (the "Venture") in which the Corporation held a 60% interest,
are consolidated into the fiscal 1999 amounts, since the Corporation was the
majority owner of the Venture and exercised day-to-day operating control. The
contract was completed in the second quarter of fiscal 1999, and the Venture
ceased operations by January 31, 1999.

The accompanying financial statements of the Corporation are unaudited and
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles which
requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts
reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results
could differ from those estimates. In the opinion of management, the financial
statements include all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of
financial position, results of operations and cash flows. All adjustments made
during the three and six months ended July 31, 1999 were of a normal, recurring
nature. The amounts presented for the three and six months ended July 31, 1999
are not necessarily indicative of results of operations for a full year.
Additional information is contained in the Annual Report on Form 10-KSB of the
Corporation for the year ended January 31, 1999 dated April 1, 1999 and
Quarterly Report on Form 10-QSB of the Corporation for the quarter ended April
30, 1999 dated June 11, 1999, and should be read in conjunction with this
quarterly report.

The Corporation does not have any items which would require adjustments to
arrive at comprehensive income.

NOTE 2 - FEDERAL INCOME TAXES

No federal income taxes have been provided for the three and six months ended
July 31, 1999 due to the loss in the current period and the existence of unused
net operating loss carryforwards. No state income taxes were provided due to the
loss in the current period.

Income taxes paid by the Corporation for the six months ended July 31, 1999 and
1998 totaled approximately $38,000 and $13,000, respectively.

NOTE 3 - DEBT

On August 25, 1997, the Corporation closed on a new $2 million credit facility
consisting of a 5-year $0.5 million equipment note and a 3-year revolving line
of credit with a maximum advance of $1.5 million. Both the equipment note and
the line of credit have an interest rate of prime plus 3.5%. As of July 31,
1999, the outstanding balance on the revolving line of credit was $798,000.

During fiscal 1996, the registrant entered into two agreements guaranteeing a
former subsidiary, PDG Remediation ("PDGR") now ICHOR Corporation's ("ICHOR")
accounts receivable financed by Sirrom Environmental Funding, LLC ("Sirrom"). At
July 31, 1999, the balance guaranteed by the Corporation had been reduced to
zero with the payment of the remaining amounts guaranteed by the Corporation.

The Corporation paid interest costs totaling approximately $63,000 and $48,000
during the six months ended July 31, 1999 and 1998, respectively.

NOTE 4 - PREFERRED STOCK

Cumulative dividends in arrears on the Corporation's 2% Series A Preferred Stock
were approximately $7,000 at July 31, 1999. At July 31, 1999, there were 6,000
shares of Series A Preferred Stock outstanding. The Series A Preferred Stock is
convertible into four shares of the Corporation's common stock at the option of
the preferred stockholder.



                                       7

The conversion rate on the Series A Preferred Stock is also subject to
adjustment as a result of certain changes in the Corporation's capital structure
or distributions to common stockholders (except for cash dividends permissible
under law).

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

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

THREE MONTHS ENDED JULY 31, 1999 AND 1998

The Corporation's contract revenues decreased to $7.9 million during the three
months ended July 31, 1999 ("Fiscal 2000") compared to $10.8 million in the
three months ended July 31, 1998 ("Fiscal 1999"). The decrease in revenues was
due to the Corporation entering the prior fiscal quarter with a greater backlog
of contracts and the $2.5 million contribution to revenue that the $12 million
Keystone contract, for the abatement of a building in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania,
made in the second quarter of fiscal 1999.

The Corporation's gross margin decreased to $1.1 million in the second quarter
of fiscal 2000 compared to $1.6 million in the second quarter of fiscal 1999.
The decrease in gross margin was attributable to the aforementioned decrease in
contract revenue. The gross margin as a percentage of revenue increased as,
traditionally, larger contracts are bid at lower margins.

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased to $0.86 million in the
three months ended July 31, 1999 compared to $0.65 million in the three months
ended July 31, 1998. During the current fiscal quarter, the Corporation operated
two additional branch offices.

In June 1999, the Corporation reached a settlement with the Mason Tenders
District Council Welfare Fund whereby the Corporation agreed to pay $500,000 to
resolve all claims concerning contributions owed for the period January 1, 1995
through May 31, 1996 and related claims for interest, statutory damages, costs
and attorneys' fees. The initial payment of $200,000 was made in June 1999 with
the remainder of $100,000 due by December 28, 1999 and $200,000 by June 28,
2000. This resulted in a $379,000 charge in the second quarter of Fiscal 2000
which was net of amounts previously accrued and recoveries from third parties.

As a result of the factors described above, the Corporation reported net loss
from operations of $0.1 million in the current three month period compared to
income from operations of $0.9 million for the same three months of the prior
fiscal year.

The Corporation's interest expense increased to $39,000 for the three months
ended July 31, 1999 from $34,000 for the three months ended July 31, 1998.

During the three months ended July 31, 1999 and 1998, the Corporation made no
provision for federal income taxes due to the utilization of net operating loss
carryforwards for financial reporting purposes. No state income tax provision
was made in the current quarter due to the loss while a state income tax
provision of $20,000 was made in the prior fiscal quarter.

The loss from continuing operations for the three month period ending July 31,
1999 was $130,000 as compared to income of $658,000 for the same three months of
the prior quarter.

The $200,000 loss from discontinued operations in the prior quarter relates to
the agreement in principal reached June 8, 1998 with the plaintiffs in the
purported class action. The Corporation's share of the settlement is $173,000.
Additionally, the Corporation incurred $27,000 of legal expenses in relation to
the litigation.

SIX MONTHS ENDED JULY 31, 1999 AND 1998

The Corporation's contract revenues decreased to $13.0 million for the six
months ended July 31, 1999 compared to $24.2 million for the six months ended
July 31, 1998.

The decrease in revenues was due to the Corporation entering the prior fiscal
year with a greater backlog of contracts and the $9.7 million contribution to
revenue that the $12 million Keystone contract made in the prior period.



                                       10
<PAGE>   11


The gross margin reported by the Corporation in the six months ended July 31,
1999 decreased to $1.9 million compared to $3.3 million for the six months ended
July 31, 1998. The decrease in gross margin related to the aforementioned
increase in contract revenue. The gross margin as a percentage of revenue
increased as, traditionally, larger contracts are bid at lower margins.

Selling, general and administrative expenses reported by the Corporation for the
six months ended July 31, 1999 increased to $1.8 million as compared to $1.4
million for the same six month period of the prior fiscal year. The increase is
primarily attributable to the addition of two new branch offices in Fiscal 2000.

In June 1999, the Corporation reached a settlement with the Mason Tenders
District Council Welfare Fund whereby the Corporation agreed to pay $500,000 to
resolve all claims concerning contributions owed for the period January 1, 1995
through May 31, 1996 and related claims for interest, statutory damages, costs
and attorneys' fees. The initial payment of $200,000 was made in June 1999 with
the remainder of $100,000 due by December 28, 1999 and $200,000 by June 28,
2000. This resulted in a $379,000 charge in the second quarter of Fiscal 2000
which was net of amounts previously accrued and recoveries from third parties.

The Corporation reported a loss from operations of $0.3 million in the six
months ended July 31, 1999 as a result of the factors discussed above compared
to income from operations of $1.9 million in the same six month period last
year.

Interest expense decreased to $0.07 million in the current six month period
compared to $0.09 million in the six months ended July 31, 1998 due to a
decrease in the balance of indebtedness as compared to the prior fiscal year.

Interest income totaled $4,000 for both six month periods.

No provisions for federal income taxes were made during the six months ended
July 31, 1999 and 1998 due to the utilization of net operating loss
carryforwards for financial reporting purposes. No state income tax provision
was made in the current six month period due to the loss while a state income
provision of $40,000 was made in the prior six month period.

The loss from continuing operations for the six month period ending July 31,
1999 was $348,000 as compared to income of $1,219,000 for the same six months of
the prior year.

The $200,000 loss from discontinued operations in the prior quarter relates to
the agreement in principal reached June 8, 1998 with the plaintiffs in the
purported class action. The Corporation's share of the settlement is $173,000.
Additionally, the Corporation incurred $27,000 of legal expenses in relation to
the litigation.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Corporation's liquidity decreased during the six months ended July 31, 1999
as cash and short-term investments decreased by $0.07 million to $0.24 million

During the six months ended July 31, 1999, the $0.07 million decrease in the
Corporation's liquidity resulted from cash used by operating activities of $0.24
million and cash utilized by investing activities of $0.36 million. These cash
outflows were offset in part by cash provided by financing activities of $0.53
million.

Cash flows used by operations totaled $0.24 million in the six months ended July
31, 1999. Cash outflows included $0.35 million related to the net loss during
the current six months, a $1.6 million increase in receivables and a $0.37
million increase in costs and estimated earnings in excess of billings on
uncompleted contracts. These cash outflows were partially offset by cash inflows
which principally included $0.4 million of depreciation and amortization, a $0.9
million increase in accounts payable, a $0.17 million decrease in other current
assets and a $0.6 million increase in billings in excess of costs and estimated
earnings on uncompleted contracts.

During the six months ended July 31, 1999, cash outflows associated with
investing activities of $0.36 million were due to the purchase of property,
plant and equipment.

The Corporation's cash inflows related to financing activities included $0.6
million in net borrowings on the line of credit and $0.02 million from the
exercise of employee stock options partially offset by $0.09 million of
principal repayments of debt and $0.01 million for the purchase of common stock
for the treasury.

The Corporation's liquidity decreased during the six months ended July 31, 1998
as cash and short-term investments decreased by $0.36 million to $0.53 million.

The decrease in fiscal 1999 was due to a $0.06 million cash outflow from
operating activities, a $0.25 million outflow related to investing activities
and a $0.05 million outflow associated with financing activities.

Cash outflows from operating activities of $0.06 million in the six months ended
July 31, 1998 included a $1.2 million increase in accounts receivable, a $0.3
million increase in costs and estimated earnings in excess of billings on
uncompleted contracts related to the timing of certain contract activity and a
$1.2 million decrease in accounts payable. The aforementioned cash outflows from
operating activities were offset, in part, by net income of $1 million generated
during the six month period, a $0.2 million decrease in other current assets, a
$0.6 million increase in accrued liabilities due to the timing of payments, a
$0.3 million decrease in billings in excess of costs and estimated earnings on
uncompleted contracts and $0.3 million of depreciation and amortization.

Cash outflows associated with financing activities during the six months
included $0.97 million of proceeds from the exercise of stock options and
warrants which was offset by $1 million of principal payments and reduction of
the outstanding balance on the line of credit.

The Corporation's cash outflows from investing activities of $0.25 million in
the six months ended July 31, 1998 was attributable to the purchase of property,
plant and equipment.

At July 31, 1999, the Corporation's backlog associated with its asbestos
abatement business totaled $14.6 million ($9.0 million on fixed fee contracts
and $5.6 million on time and materials or unit price contracts).

                           PART II-- OTHER INFORMATION



ITEM 1.  LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

In this quarter, the Corporation reached an unexpected settlement with the Mason
Tenders District Council Welfare Fund whereby the Corporation agreed to pay
$500,000, over a period of time, to resolve all claims concerning contributions
allegedly owed to the funds, but specifically for the period January 1, 1995
through May 31, 1996 and related claims for interest, statutory damages, costs
and attorneys' fees. Management and legal counsel maintain that the
Corporation's position would have been sustained if litigated to a final
unappealable decision. However, in view of the costs and vagaries associated
with continued litigation, management concluded that an adverse ruling at the
trial stage of the dispute was not an acceptable risk. The supersedeas bond
necessary to appeal such a decision would have included costs, fees and
penalties and may have reduced the Corporation's capacity to obtain payment and
performance bonds for its ordinary operations. The initial payment of $200,000
was made in June 1999 with the remainder of $100,000 due by December 28, 1999
and $200,000 by June 28, 2000. This settlement resulted in a $379,000 charge in
the second quarter of fiscal 2000, which was net of amounts previously accrued
and recoveries from third parties.

The registrant is subjected to disputes and litigation in the ordinary course of
business. None of these matters, in the opinion of management, is likely to
result in a material effect on the registrant based upon information available
at this time.

ITEM 3.  DEFAULTS UPON SENIOR SECURITIES
