Waste Technology Corp. and Subsidiaries
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

1.   Basis of Presentation:

     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 period ended January 31, 1997 are not necessarily indicative of
     the results that may be expected the year ending October 31, 1997. For
     further information, refer to the Company's Annual Report on form 10KSB for
     the year ended October 31, 1996 and the Management Discussion included in
     this form 10QSB.

2.   Accounting Policies:

     Stock-Based Compensation - In 1997, the Company will adopt SFAS No. 123,
     "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation." This standard establishes a fair
     value method for accounting for stock-based compensation plans either
     through recognition or disclosure. The Company intends to adopt this
     standard by disclosing the pro forma net income and earnings per share
     amounts assuming the fair value method was adopted on November 1, 1996. The
     adoption of this standard will not impact its results of operations,
     financial position or cash flows.

3.   Earnings (Loss) Per Common and Common Equivalent Share:

     Earnings (loss) 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 in the case of
     income. Options are not considered in loss periods as they would be
     antidilutive.

4.   Long-Term Debt:

     Long-term debt consists of the following:


                           January 31,                         1997      1996

         Term note payable to bank at prime rate plus, 
           due in equal monthly installments of $9,028, 
           plus interest through August 2002.               $ 604,861  $370,833

</TABLE>

     The bank's prime rate at January 31, 1997 was 8.25%. The carrying value of
     the Company's debt approximates fair value.

     The term note payable to bank and the revolving promissory note contain
     certain covenants, whereby the Company must maintain, among other things,
     specified levels of minimum net worth and working capital, and maintain a
     specified ratio of maximum debt to worth, and current ratio. The term note
     payable contains cross default provisions as related to the revolving
     promissory note and other debt agreements.

     The Company violated covenants related to minimum net worth and maximum
     debt to worth. As of the date of issuance of these financial statements,
     the lender has not waived these covenant violations nor has it demanded
     repayment. Management plans to negotiate an extension of the revolving debt
     and covenant requirements prior to the expiration date of the debt or
     obtain alternative financing. However, no assurance an be given that the
     Company will be successful. If the Company were unable to negotiate an
     extension or obtain alternative financing and the lender called the debt,
     management would be required to shut down and/or sell certain assets of the
     Company. Management believes its available collateral to be sufficient so
     as acceptable financing can be obtained.

     The Company has pledged substantially all of its assets as collateral under
     the term loan and revolving loan agreement.

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

Results of Operations:  Three Month Comparisons

For the first quarter of fiscal 1997 the Company had consolidated net sales of
$3,399,974 as compared to $3,177,627 for the first quarter 1996, an increase of
7.0 %. The increase in sales is primarily the result of higher shipments at the
company's new subsidiary, International Press and Shear (IPS), which started
operations in the fourth quarter of 1995.

Consolidated net income for the first quarter 1997 was $9,829 versus $240,097 in
the first quarter of 1996. Earnings per share for the first quarter were $.00
and $.09 for 1997 and 1996 respectively. The lower earnings and the decrease in
the gross profit margin is directly related to the operations at the IPS
subsidiary in Baxley, Georgia. The losses incurred by the new subsidiary were
the result of costs related to a start-up operation and the continuing weakness
in the corrugated board and paper prices in the recycled products markets. Also,
the first quarter results for 1996 included income of $80,000 due to the
recording of a deferred tax asset which was reversed in the fourth quarter of
1996. The deferred tax asset was reversed due to the results of operations in
1996 and current short-term expectations.


The IPS operations have been pared down to a level which is commensurate with
the current corrugated and paper recycling market conditions. This subsidiary is
now running efficiently and it is the objective of the Company to get IPS to a
profitable or near break-even level by the end of the fiscal 1997.

The backlog as of February 28, 1997 was $2,092,000 as compared with $3,456,000
as of February 29, 1996, a decrease of 39.5%.

Financial Condition:

Net working capital increased from $1,333,765 at October 31, 1996 to $1,409,385.
This increase is the result of an increase in accounts receivable partially
offset by lower inventories and higher accounts payable, notes payable and
accrued liabilities.

The term note with SouthTrust Bank was renewed in August 1996, increased by
$375,167 and extended to August 2002. The original note balance of $418,333 at
October 31, 1996 was due in November 1997. Monthly payments on the original note
were $15,833 per month, plus interest at the prime rate + 1%. The new note is
due in equal monthly installments of $9,018, plus interest at the prime rate.
The entire balance of this term note was classified as a current liability
because the term loan has callable provisions relating to the revolving note
described below.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, Continued

Financial Condition, Continued:

The revolving note payable to SouthTrust in the amount of $1,000,000 was renewed
in July 1996 at the prime rate. Interest is payable monthly and all amounts
borrowed are due in full on July 7, 1997. The balance due at January 31, 1997
was $871,652. At January 31, 1997, the Company is in violation of the covenants
of the loan agreement related to minimum net worth and maximum debt to worth. As
of the filing date, the lender has not waived these covenant violations nor has
it demanded repayment. While no assurance can be given, management believes its
available collateral to be sufficient to allow the Company to renegotiate an
extension of the revolving debt and its covenant requirements prior to its
expiration date or obtain alternative financing. It is anticipated that the note
will be renewed in July 1997.

For the year ended October 31, 1996 and the quarter ended January 31, 1997 the
Company had negative cash flow from operations. Management has taken actions to
improve cash flows from operations primarily by reducing personnel to a minimum
level and cutting operating costs at the IPS subsidiary where possible.
Management anticipated that the IPS subsidiary will attain or exceed the sales
levels of 1996 and with the cost structure in place this subsidiary should
perform substantially better in 1997 than in 1996. However, if orders at IPS are
not sufficient to sustain a minimum cash outflow rate, management will take
further action as necessary to maintain the liquidity position of the entire
company.


Our auditors, Coopers & Lybrand, have stated in the "Report of Independent
Accountants" to the shareholders of Waste Technology Corporation that there is
"substantial doubt" about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.
While the Company understands why the accountants report had to include the
explanatory paragraph, (the absence of a loan default waiver), and though the
Company's Management and Board of Directors has substantial concern, it believes
that it has several viable options to continue as a going concern for the
following reasons:

1.       The Company has the ability to take actions to reduce the operating and
         carrying costs of its IPS subsidiary to a level which will not
         jeopardize the liquidity of the company.

2.       The Company violated covenants related to minimum net worth and maximum
         debt to worth. As of the date of issuance of this report, the lender
         has not waived these covenant violations nor has it demanded repayment.
         Management plans to negotiate an extension of the revolving debt and
         covenant requirements prior to the expiration date of the debt or
         obtain alternative financing. However, no assurance can be given that
         the Company will be successful. If the Company were unable to negotiate
         an extension or obtain alternative financing and the lender called the
         debt, Management would be required to shut-down and/or sell certain
         assets of the Company. Management believes its available collateral to
         be sufficient so as acceptable financing can be obtained.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, Continued

Financial Condition, Continued:

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 increased to offset any increase in costs due to inflation.
