Waste Technology Corp. and Subsidiaries
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

1.   Accounting Policies:

     Principles of Consolidation - The accompanying consolidated financial
     statements include the accounts of Waste Technology and all of its wholly
     owned and majority owned subsidiaries (Company). Intercompany balances and
     material intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

     Description of the Business - The Company is a manufacturer of baling
     machines which utilize mechanical, hydraulic and electrical mechanisms to
     compress a variety of materials into bales. The Company's customers include
     plastic recycling facilities, paper mills, textile mills and paper
     recycling facilities throughout the United States, the Far East and South
     America.

     Minority Interest - The Company owns 85.8% of the outstanding shares of
     International Baler Corp. (IBC) at April 30, 1996 and 1995. IBC is the
     Company's primary operating subsidiary. The parent company theory has been
     applied in the presentation of the minority interest, whereby minority
     interest is separately stated as a liability on the consolidated balance
     sheet at an amount equal to the minority ownership percentage of the book
     value of the subsidiary's net assets. The minority interest in the
     consolidated income statement is equal to the minority ownership percentage
     of the subsidiary's net income or loss.

     Pervasiveness of Estimates - The preparation of financial statements in
     conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires
     management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported
     amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and
     liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported
     amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual
     results could differ from those estimates.

     Inventories - Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost
     is determined by the first-in, first-out method.

     Depreciation - The cost of property, plant and equipment is depreciated
     over the estimated useful lives of the related assets. Depreciation is
     computed on the double-declining balance and straight line methods for
     financial reporting and other accelerated methods for income tax purposes.
     Gain or loss upon retirement or disposal of property, plant and equipment
     is recorded as income or expense.

     Intangibles - The cost over fair value of net tangible assets of an
     acquired business is amortized on the straight-line method over a period of
     20 years. Other intangible assets, primarily patents and a covenant not to
     compete, are amortized on the straight-line basis over their estimated
     lives of six to seventeen years. The Company periodically reviews
     intangibles to assess recoverability, and impairments would be recognized
     in operating results if a permanent decline

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, Continued

1.   Accounting Policies, Continued:

     in value were to occur. Accumulated amortization was $85,003 and $70,782 at
     April 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively. Amortization expense related to
     intangibles was $2,949 and $3,139 for each of the quarters ended April 30,
     1996 and 1995.

     Income Taxes - The Company adopted the provisions of Statement of Financial
     Accounting Standards No. 109 "Accounting for Income Taxes" ("SFAS No. 109")
     in fiscal 1994, which requires recognition of deferred tax assets and
     liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have
     been included in the financial statement or tax returns. Under this method
     of deferred tax, assets and liabilities are determined based on the
     difference between the financial statement and tax basis of assets and
     liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the years in which the
     differences are expected to reverse. The adoption of SFAS No. 109 did not
     have a material impact on the Company's financial position or results of
     operations in the year of adoption.

     Reclassifications - Certain 1995 items have been reclassified to conform to
     the 1996 presentation.

2.   Loan and Notes Receivable-Officers and Directors:

     On April 12, 1990, four individuals, including the former Chairman of the
     Board, and the Executive Vice President, General Counsel, Secretary and
     Director of the Company, entered into an agreement with a group of
     dissident shareholders to purchase an aggregate of 294,182 shares at a
     purchase price of $4 per share. The former Chairman and the General Counsel
     each purchased 134,591 shares of common stock and the other two individuals
     purchased an aggregate of 25,000 shares.

     On July 15, 1991, the purchase of shares was finalized by the payment to
     the selling shareholders of the balance of the purchase price plus accrued
     interest. The financing of the transactions was paid with funds borrowed
     from the Company with the unanimous approval of the Company's Board of
     Directors. The four individuals executed promissory notes in favor of the
     Company, originally payable in three annual installments due July 15,
     1992--94 plus accrued interest from July 15, 1991 at the rate of 9% per
     annum. The former Chairman's promissory note was satisfied in 1993. The
     Company has extended the initial installment date of the remaining notes to
     begin on July 15, 1996. The debt is collateralized by a lien on the 104,591
     shares of the Company's common stock and a personal guarantee of each
     borrower to the extent of his loan and the guarantee of General Counsel's
     law firm to the extent of his loan.

2.   Loan and Notes Receivable-Officers and Directors, Continued:

     On June 13, 1995 the General Counsel and his law firm exercised their
     option to purchase 250,000 shares of Waste Technology Corporation common
     stock at $1.00 per share, whereby, the Company reduced the legal fees
     payable to the law firm in lieu of cash. These shares are also being held
     as collateral for the note receivable from the General Counsel.

     The General Counsel made a payment of $21,000 on the note in the second
     quarter 1996.

     The following is an analysis of the notes receivable and accrued interest
     at April 30, 1996:

                      =========  ========= =========  =======   ========     

     The Company expects that a primary source for repayment of the above notes
     will be from the sale of the collateralized shares of the Company stock.

     The notes receivable from the General Counsel, who is also a major
     stockholder of the Company, is presented as a reduction of stockholders'
     equity.

     The income statement includes interest income on officer and director notes
     receivable of $10,089 and $10,088 for the quarters ending April 30, 1996
     and 1995, respectively.

     An officer and director is a partner in the law firm providing legal
     services to the Company and as of April 30, 1996 the Company is indebted in
     the amount of $301,480 to this firm.

4.   Real Estate Venture:

     In December 1990, the Company formed a wholly owned subsidiary, Waste Tech
     Real Estate Corp. ("WT Real Estate"), for the purpose of having that
     corporation enter into a joint venture with a non-affiliated company,
     Roch-Tech Realty Corp. ("RT"), to purchase a parcel of land in Far
     Rockaway, Queens, New York and to build residential single family homes on
     the property. RT had previously entered into a contract to purchase the
     property for $625,000, $50,000 being paid on the execution of the contract
     and the balance to be paid $200,000 on closing and $375,000 by a purchase
     money mortgage to the seller. RT has assigned the contract to the joint
     venture.

     WT Real Estate has a 21% interest in the profits and losses of the joint
     venture. As of April 30, 1996, the Company had committed to fund up to
     $175,000 for its share of loans and loaned the sum of $166,980 to the joint
     venture on behalf of WT Real Estate. Management does not believe that it
     will be required to advance funds in excess of such commitment. WT Real
     Estate has a mortgage lien on the property as collateral for all sums it
     advances to the joint venture except that mortgage shall be subordinated to
     any purchase money mortgage or construction loan mortgage. The Company was
     to receive interest at 10% per annum, but since no interest has been
     received, the loan no longer accrues interest. As of April 30, 1996 accrued
     interest in the amount of $51,032 is included in the total of $218,012. The
     Company has established a reserve of $168,172 as an estimate for potential
     uncollectible amounts.

6.   Long-Term Debt, Continued:

     The Company entered into capital lease obligation relating to the sale and
     lease-back of a facility in Baxley, Georgia. Lease payments are based on a
     note with an interest rate of 8.25% for 20 years. Principal balance and
     accrued interest are due on the fifteenth anniversary of this note.

     Maturities of debt are as follows:

                                   Aggregate
         Period ending April 30    Obligation

                                  ===========

7.   Contingent Liabilities and Commitments:

     Litigation - The Company was a defendant in a wrongful death action,
     whereby the complainant alleges that the plaintiff's decedent was injured
     while operating a baling machine during his employment and he died as a
     result of those injuries. Subsequent to year-end, a jury determined the
     Company has no liability to the plaintiffs. 

     There are various other litigation proceedings in which the Company is
     involved. Any liability which the Company may have under many of these
     proceedings is believed to be covered by insurance. The results of other
     litigation proceedings cannot be predicted with certainty, however, the
     Company believes that the results of any litigation will not have a
     material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition or results of
     operations.

     Other - The Company has an employment agreement with its President for a
     term of five years commencing on August 1, 1993 and ending August 1, 1998.
     Annual compensation pursuant to the contract is $100,627, increased 5% per
     year for the years 1996 to 1998. Additionally, the Company has a severance
     agreement with its President, whereby in the event of change of control of
     IBC and the subsequent termination of employment of him for any reason
     other than cause, IBC shall be required to pay to him an amount equal to
     2.99 times his salary at IBC prior to any change in control.

     Pursuant to an agreement with the former shareholders of a subsidiary of
     the Company, the shareholders have the right to require the Company to
     purchase 186,230 shares of the Company's stock owned by the shareholders
     for $2.00 per share. If the current market price at the time the right is

     exercised is less than $2.00 per share, the Company is required to provide
     additional shares to the shareholders. The agreement expires in 1996.

8.   Income Taxes:

     The Company files consolidated federal income tax returns with its
     subsidiaries and separate corporate state income tax returns.

     The Company has reduced its valuation of temporary differences, which has
     resulted in the recognition of an additional deferred tax asset of $80,000
     at January 31, 1996. Realization is dependent on generating sufficient
     taxable income in the future. Although realization is not assured,
     management believes it is more likely than not that the deferred tax asset
     will be realized. The amount of the deferred tax asset considered
     realizable, however, would be reduced in the near term if estimates of
     future taxable income is reduced.

     The significant components of the net deferred tax asset at April 30, 1996
     are as follows:

         Reserves and allowances                $254,000
         Property, Plant and equipment            52,000
         General business credit carryforward     40,000
         Net operating loss carryforward         516,000
         Other                                    73,000
                                              ----------
                                                 935,000
         Valuation allowance                     442,000
                                              ---------- 
                                                $493,000
                                              ==========
 
9.   Net Earnings Per Common and Common Equivalent Share:

     Net earnings per common and common equivalent share are calculated using
     the weighted average number of common share outstanding during each year
     and on the net additional number of shares which would be issuable upon the
     exercise of stock options, assuming that the Company used the proceeds
     received to purchase additional shares at market value.

10.  Stock Options:

     On June 13, 1995 the Board of Directors of the Company adopted, subject to
     the approval of the Company's shareholders, the 1995 Stock Option Plan.
     Under the 1995 Plan, incentive stock options within the meaning of Section
     442A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), may be
     granted to key employees, including officers and/or stock appreciation
     rights ("SARs") may be granted to key employees, officers, directors and
     consultants of the Company and its present and future subsidiaries to

     purchase an aggregate of 1,000,000 shares of the Company's common stock
     (the "Common Stock").

10. Stock Options, Continued:

     The purpose of the 1995 Plan is to aid the Company in attracting and
     retaining key employees, officers, directors and consultants and to secure
     for the Company the benefits of the incentive inherent in equity ownership
     by such persons who are responsible for causing the Company's growth and
     success. Accordingly, the Board of Directors unanimously recommended that
     shareholders approve the 1995 Plan. The 1995 Plan was approved by the
     shareholders at the Annual Meeting held on November 18, 1995.

     The maximum number of shares as to which options may be granted under the
     1995 Plan (subject to adjustment as described below) is 1,000,000 shares of
     Common Stock. Upon expiration, cancellation or termination of unexercised
     options, the shares with respect to which such options shall have been
     granted will again be available for grant under the 1995 Plan.

     The 1995 Plan is administered by the Board of Directors, or if appointed,
     by a stock option committee consisting of at least two members of the Board
     of Directors, none of whom is eligible to participate under the 1995 Plan.
     (The group administering the 1995 Plan is referred to as the "Committee").

     The Committee has the authority under the 1995 Plan to determine the terms
     of options and/or SARs granted under the 1995 Plan, including, among other
     things, whether an option shall be an incentive or a nonqualified stock
     option, the individuals who shall receive them, whether an

SAR shall be granted separately, in tandem with or in addition to options, the
number of shares to be subject to each option and/or SAR, the date or dates each
option or SAR shall become exercisable and the exercise price or base price of
each option and SAR; provided, however, that the exercise price of an incentive
stock option may not be less than 100% of the fair market value of the Common
Stock on the date of grant and not less than 110% of the fair market value in
the case of an optionee who at the time of grant owns more than ten percent of
the total combined voting power of the Company, or of any subsidiary or parent
of the Company. During 1995, the Board of Directors granted non-qualified stock
options to purchase an aggregate 880,000 shares of the Company's common stock at
prices ranging from $1.50 to $2.00 per share, respectively. Options to purchase
20,000 shares granted to a director are not to be subject to the Company's stock
option plan. The options were issued to key employees and a director. The
options grant the right to purchase shares of the Company's common stock at the
date of the grant. The options have anti-dilutive rights in the event of a
split, reverse split, or recapitalization and are exercisable in whole or in 
part through 2005.

11.  Employees' Benefit Plan:

     The Company instituted a profit sharing plan for its employees in 1989 by
     contributing 375,000 shares of its stock to the trust, having a fair market
     value of $165,000 on the transfer date. The Company contributed $50,000 to
     the plan in fiscal 1995 and no contributions were made in fiscal 1994.

12.  Unaudited Financial Statements:

     The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been
     prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for
     interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-QSB and
     Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the
     information footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles
     for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all
     adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary
     for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the
     three-month periods ended April 30, 1996 are not necessarily indicative of
     the results that may be expected the year ending October 31, 1996. For
     further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and

ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
         RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Results of Operations: Three Month Comparisons

For the second quarter of fiscal 1996 the Company had consolidated net sales of
$3,951,750 as compared to $2,828,650 for the second quarter 1995, an increase of
39.7 %. The increase in sales is the result of shipments at the company's new
International Press and Shear (IPS) operation which had no shipments in the
prior year, since it did not commence operations until the fourth quarter 1995.

Consolidated net income for the second quarter 1996 was $1,513 versus $323,970
in the corresponding quarter of the prior year. Earnings per share were $.00 for
the second quarter 1996 and $.16 for the second quarter 1995. The lower earnings
were primarily the result of continuing start-up related costs at the IPS
facility in Georgia, including large outlays for inventory and personnel whereas
shipments from the new facility did not commence until January 1996.


The decrease in gross profit margin is the direct result of the manufacturing
costs at the new Georgia operation which were not yet covered by shipments. The
same is true of the increased selling and administration expenses which are
directly related to the new subsidiary. Management anticipates that the
operating results at the IPS subsidiary will be profitable by fiscal year-end. 

The change in the minority interest exclusion is the result of higher shipments
by the Consolidated Baling Machine Company and lower shipments by International
Baler Corporation which has the minority interest shareholders.

The backlog as of May 31, 1996 was $3,103,000 as compared with $2,828,000 as of
May 31, 1995, an increase of 9.7%.

Results of Operation: Six Month Comparisons

Net sales increased by 52.5% from $4,674,475 in 1995 to $7,129,377 for the first
half of 1996. The large increase in sales was due in significant part to the
sales at the start-up operation in Georgia.

Consolidated net income was $241,610 for the first six months of fiscal 1996 as
compared to $384,329 for the same period in 1995. The major factor in this
earnings decrease was the operating losses at the start-up of the IPS subsidiary
of approximately $500,000. Net income per share was $.09 per share in fiscal
1996 versus $.19 in 1995.

Financial Conditions:

Working capital decreased from $1,772,035 at October 31, 1995 to $1,717,855, but
increased from $1,474,693 at the end of the first quarter 1996. The increase in
inventories of over $1,000,000 was 

                                      19

the result of the initial build-up of raw materials and work-in-process at the
new manufacturing plant in Georgia. The Company received $720,000 in the second
quarter 1996 from a sale and lease-back arrangement with the Development
Authority of Appling County, Georgia. The value of the building under the lease
arrangement has been included in the fixed assets of the company.

During the second quarter the term loan balance was reduced by $47,500 to
$323,333. This loan is due in equal monthly installments of $15,833 plus
interest through November 1, 1997. All assets of the Company are pledged as
security for the repayment of this note. As of the end of the second quarter
1996 the Company had borrowed $700,000 against its $1,000,000 line of credit
with SouthTrust Bank.

Substantially all capital expenditures relating to the new Georgia facility and
Jacksonville plant expansion have been completed. Capital expenditures for the
remainder of fiscal 1996 are expected to be minimal.

Other than as set forth above, the Company has no commitments for any material
capital expenditures. Other than as set forth above, there are no unusual or

infrequent events of transactions or significant economy changes which
materially effect the amount of reported income from continuing operations.

Inflation:

The cost of the Company and its subsidiaries are subject to the general
inflationary trends existing in the general economy. The Company believes that
expected pricing by its subsidiaries for balers will be able to include
sufficient increases to offset any increase in costs due to inflation.
