Waste Technology Corporation and Subsidiaries
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

1.   Nature of Business:

Waste Technology Corp. (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, Europe and South America. The Company has two
manufacturing subsidiaries, International Baler Corp. (IBC), located in
Jacksonville, Florida, and International Press and Shear, Corp. (IPS), located
in Baxley, Georgia.

The IPS subsidiary was formed in the second quarter of fiscal 1995 and greatly
expanded the manufacturing capacity of the Company. Operating losses at IPS are
a significant cause of the consolidated losses in the first six months of fiscal
1999 and 1998. These losses occurred primarily as a result of the continuing
depressed recycled products markets, as well as higher than anticipated costs of
sales and selling and administrative expenses. In the fourth quarter of 1998 the
Company effectuated significant cost reductions which will exceed $500,000 on an
annual basis. These cost cutting measures include personnel eliminations, salary
reductions and advertising reductions.

The Company is unable to predict how soon prices will recover, but, based on
previous cyclical dips in corrugated and paper prices, the Company believes that
prices could rise in the relatively near future with a resulting increase in
sales and profits. The Company has introduced new textile balers, new corrugated
balers and has been marketing the new patented hinge side baler. The Company
anticipates that these products will increase sales in the second half of
fiscal 1999.

3.   Summary of Significant Account Policies:

(a) Principles of Consolidation:

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

(b)  Basic and Diluted Earnings (Loss) Per Share:

Basic earnings (loss) per share is calculated using the weighted average number
of common shares outstanding during each period. Diluted earnings (loss) per
share includes the net additional number of shares that would be issued upon the
exercise of stock options using the treasury stock method. Options are not
considered in loss periods as they would be antidilutive.

4.   Related Party Loan and Notes Receivable:

The Company was indebted in the amount of $453,738 to the General Counsel and
his law firm at April 30, 1999. During 1997, the General Counsel and his law
firm authorized the Company to set off accrued legal fees against the note
receivable from the General Counsel at such time as the Board of Directors shall
determine. Accordingly, accrued legal fees are presented as a reduction of notes
receivable from General Counsel at April 30, 1999.

On December 29, 1995, the Company transferred a life insurance policy, covering
the life of its president, to the president in exchange for a note receivable.
The amount of the note receivable from the president is equal to the amount of
the cash surrender value of the policy at the time of the transfer. Interest
accrues at the rate of 6% per annum. No principal or interest is due until
proceeds from the policy are realized.

5.   Revolving Promissory Note:

The Company has a $2,000,000 line of credit with $821,062 outstanding at April
30, 1999 and $1,220,555 outstanding at October 31, 1998. The line of credit is
secured by substantially all assets. Advances under the revolving line are
limited to the aggregate of up to 85% of eligible accounts receivable less than
90 days old and 30% of eligible raw materials and finished goods inventory. As
of April 30, 1999, the balance of the revolving line approximated the maximum
borrowing capacity available to the Company. The revolving line bears interest
at the prime rate plus 1.5% (9.25% at April 30, 1999) with the principal amount
payable on demand. On March 16, 1999 the company was notified by its lender that
the company was in default of the loan agreement relating to a judgement (L + A
vs. Ram). Since the judgement has not been satisfied according to the terms of
the side agreement, the lender has placed the company in default and raised the
interest rate to 14.25%. The company is negotiating with the lender in order to
get the interest rate reduced.

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 1999 the Company had net sales of $2,122,545 as
compared to $3,338,652 for the first quarter of 1998. The lower sales were the
result of lower shipments to the recycled products markets at both the
International Baler and International Press and Shear operations.

The Company had a net loss of $362,723 in the second quarter of 1999 as compared
to income of $42,983 in the second quarter of 1998. The loss is the result of
the lower level of shipments partially offset by lower operating expenses.
Selling expenses were reduced by $75,166 and general and administrative expenses
were reduced by $15,328 in the second quarter 1999 versus the same quarter in
fiscal 1998. These cost reductions are the result of personnel eliminations,
salary reductions, and lower advertising and travel expenses.

Gross profit margins declined from 23.2% in the second partner of fiscal 1998 to
15.0% in the second quarter of fiscal 1999. This decrease was the result of the
lower level of shipments in the current quarter and the resultant lower
absorption of manufacturing overhead.

Results of Operations: Six Month Comparisons

Net sales in the first half of fiscal 1999 were $4,293,699 as compared to
$6,346,764 in the prior year, a decline of 32.3%. The lower shipments are the
result of the same factors mentioned in the discussions of the three month
comparisons above.

Net loss for the first six months of 1999 was $710,424 versus a loss
of $246,462 in the corresponding period of 1998. The loss in the first half of
1999 was due to lower shipments at all

                                       12
<PAGE>

operating units of the Company and was directly related to continued weakness in
the corrugated board and paper markets for recycled materials.

Gross profit margins declined from 20.1% in the first half of fiscal 1998 to
14.0% in the first half of fiscal 1999 due to the lower shipments and lower
absorption of manufacturing overhead. Interest expense was higher in the second
quarter of fiscal 1999 versus the prior quarter and the second quarter of fiscal
1998 due to the increase in the interest rate on the line of credit.

The Company is reviewing all aspects of its operations in order to determine
what additional actions may be taken in order to allow the Company to return to
profitability even if the recycled products markets remain depressed. The
Company has moved production of certain baler models to Jacksonville and has
also eliminated a number of support staff in Baxley maintaining only critical
personnel. As order activity increases full production can resume. The Company
has introduced new textile balers, new corrugated balers and has been marketing
a new patented hinge side baler. The Company anticipates that these products
will have a significant impact on sales in fiscal 1999.

The order backlog as of May 31, 1999 was $2,994,000 as compared with $3,267,000
at May 31, 1998.

Financial Condition:

Working capital decreased from $32,866 at October 31, 1998 to a deficit of
$591,902 at April 30, 1999. This decrease is due to the overall operating
results of the first half of 1999. The entire balance of the line of credit is
included as a current liability even through it is not due to be renewed or
replaced until July 31, 2000 because of the nature of this type of loan. This
line of credit is for a period of two years, accrues interest at 1 1/2% above
the prime rate and is secured primarily by accounts receivable and inventories.
Also included in current liabilities is the accrued legal judgement of $506,000
which relates to the Company's former subsidiary, Ram Coating Technology.

The term note with SouthTrust Bank had a balance of $361,111 at April 30, 1999
and is due in equal monthly installments of $9,028, plus interest at the prime
rate to August 2002. The term note payable to Appling County, Georgia is due in
equal monthly installments of $3,417 including interest at 4.0% through July
2003.

Our auditors, KPMG LLP, have stated in the "Report of Independent Accountants"
for October 31, 1998 to the shareholders of Waste Technology Corporation that
there is "substantial doubt" about the Company's ability to continue as a going
concern. The Company's Management and Board of Directors has substantial concern
over recent operating performances, however, it believes that it has several
viable options to continue as a going concern for the following reasons:

     1.  In July 1998 the Company has replaced the $1,000,000 revolving
         promissory note with SouthTrust Bank with a $2,000,000 (maximum)
         revolving promissory note with a term of two years.

     2.  The Company has taken certain actions to reduce operating costs
         including the elimination of personnel, implementing salary reductions
         for management, and cutting expenditures wherever possible. These cost
         cutting actions should result in annual savings in excess of $500,000
         and were implemented in the fourth quarter of fiscal 1998.

                                       13
<PAGE>

         The Company is also developing additional contingency plans to further
         reduce costs in order that the Company can operate profitably in the
         future and have positive cash flow from operations at a minimum. The
         Company has no commitments for any material capital expenditures. Other
         than as set forth above, there are no unusual or infrequent events or
         transactions or significant economic charges which materially affect
         the amount of reported income from continuing operations.

         The above contains forward looking statements and is subject to many
         variables over which the Company has no control such as inflation,
         competition, and the general market conditions for its products.
         Therefore the Company may have to consider additional financing and/or
         operating alternatives to insure the Company will continue as a going
         concern.

Year 2000 Compliance:

The Company believes it has fully achieved Year 2000 compliance for all internal
systems. Costs associated with compliance were immaterial and have been fully
incurred. The Company is in the process of examining key vendor and customer
relationships to determine, to the extent practical, the degree of such parties'
Year 2000 compliance.

Should a key vendor or customer have a systems failure due to the century
change, the Company believes that the most significant impact would likely be
the inability to receive inventory on a timely basis. While the Company does not
expect any such impact to be material, it is developing contingency plans to
address this possibility.

Inflation:

The costs 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.
