OHM CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JUNE 30, 1997
(Unaudited)
NOTE 1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been
prepared by OHM Corporation (the "Company") and reflect all adjustments of a
normal recurring nature which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a
fair presentation of financial results for the three and six months ended June
30, 1997 and 1996, in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles
for interim financial reporting and pursuant to Article 10 of Regulation S-X.
Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial
statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles
have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. These
interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in
conjunction with the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended
December 31, 1996. The results of operations for the three and six months ended
June 30, 1997 and 1996 are not necessarily indicative of the results for the
full year.
In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement No.
128, Earnings per Share, which is required to be adopted on December 31, 1997.
At that time, the Company will be required to change the method currently used
to compute earnings per share and to restate all prior periods. Under the new
requirements for calculating basic earnings per share, the dilutive effect of
stock options will be excluded. The impact on the calculation of earnings per
share for the three and six months ended June 30, 1997 and 1996 is not expected
to be significant.
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts
of the Company and its subsidiaries. The Company's 40% owned asbestos abatement
affiliate, NSC Corporation ("NSC"), has been accounted for using the equity
method. All material intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated
in consolidation. See "Note 7 - Special Charges" regarding the Company's plans
to divest its ownership of NSC and the related reduction of its carrying value.
The consolidated financial statements at June 30, 1997, and for the three and
six months then ended, have been reviewed, prior to filing, by Ernst & Young
LLP, the Company's independent accountants, and their report is included herein.
NOTE 2 - SUPPLEMENTARY CASH FLOW INFORMATION
Cash paid for interest was $3,022,000 and $4,222,000 and cash paid for income
taxes was $73,000 and $327,000 for the six months ended June 30, 1997 and 1996,
respectively.
NOTE 3 - ACQUISITION
Effective June 1, 1997, the Company acquired all of the outstanding stock of
Beneco Enterprises, Inc., a Utah corporation ("Beneco"), for an aggregate
purchase price of $14,700,000. The purchase price was paid as follows: (i)
$9,700,000 (excluding the $2,068,000 of cash acquired as part of Beneco - net
cash paid $7,092,000) in cash and (ii) unsecured promissory notes in the
aggregate of $5,000,000, bearing interest at 7.25%, due and payable June 17,
1998. The Company has agreed to make an additional payment in 2000 contingent
upon the achievement of certain operating results and other contractual
conditions. Beneco is a provider of project, program and construction management
services to the Department of Defense and other government agencies throughout
the United States.
The acquisition of Beneco has been accounted for using the purchase method and,
accordingly, the acquired assets and assumed liabilities, including goodwill,
have been recorded at their estimated fair values as of June 1, 1997. The
Company's consolidated financial statements for the three and six month periods
ended June 30, 1997 include the results of Beneco since June 1, 1997. The
following table sets forth the unaudited combined pro forma results of
operations for the six months ended June 30, 1997 and 1996, giving effect to the
acquisition of Beneco as if such acquisition had occurred on January 1, 1996.

The actual purchase accounting adjustments to reflect the fair value of assets
and liabilities acquired have not been finalized and, as a result, the
accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements and combined pro forma
results of operations have been prepared on the basis of preliminary estimates
of such adjustments. The combined pro forma results of operations for the six
months ended June 30, 1997 are based upon certain assumptions and estimates
which the Company believes are reasonable. The combined pro forma results of
operations may not be indicative of the operating results that actually would
have been reported had the transaction been consummated on January 1, 1996, nor
are they necessarily indicative of results which will be reported in the future.
NOTE 4 - INCOME TAXES
The reasons for differences between the provisions for income taxes and the

NOTE 5 - SEASONALITY
The timing of revenue recognition is dependent on the Company's backlog,
contract awards and the performance requirements of each contract. The Company's
revenue is also affected by the timing of its clients' planned remediation work
which generally increases during the third and fourth quarters. Because of this
variability in demand, the Company's quarterly revenue can fluctuate, and
revenue for the first and second quarters of each year can normally be expected
to be lower than the third and fourth quarters. Although the Company believes
that the historical trend in quarterly revenue for the third and fourth quarters
of each year are generally higher than the first and second quarters, there can
be no assurance that this will occur in future periods. Accordingly, quarterly
or other interim results should not be considered indicative of results to be
expected for any quarter or for the full year.
NOTE 6 - LITIGATION AND CONTINGENCIES
The Company is subject to a number of claims and litigation. These matters
include the following items which were disclosed in the consolidated financial
statements in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended
December 31, 1996.
The Company has settled litigation that was pending in the U.S. District Court
for the Western District of Louisiana involving Citgo Petroleum Corporation
("Citgo"), Oxy USA Inc., and Occidental Oil & Gas (collectively "Oxy") relating
to cost overruns and production shortfalls on a remediation project which was
performed by the Company for Citgo at its Lake Charles Louisiana refinery during
1993 and 1994. Under the terms of the settlement Citgo and Oxy dismissed all
claims against the Company related to this matter and the Company dismissed all
claims against Citgo and Oxy related to this matter. In addition, the Company
received a cash payment of $14,346,000. The Company reduced the amount of its
account receivables by the amount such receivables exceeded the payments
received (see "Note 7 - Special Charges").
5
<PAGE> 9
The Company is in litigation in the U.S. District Court for the Western District
of New York with Occidental Chemical Corporation ("Occidental") relating to the
Durez Inlet Project performed in 1993 and 1994 for Occidental in North
Tonawanda, New York. The Company's account receivables at June 30, 1997 include
a claim receivable of $8,651,000 related to this matter. The Company's work was
substantially delayed and its costs of performance were substantially increased
as a result of conditions at the site that the Company believes were materially
different than as represented by Occidental. Occidental's amended complaint
seeks $8,806,000 in damages primarily for alleged costs incurred as a result of
project delays and added volumes of incinerated waste. The Company's
counterclaim seeks an amount in excess of $9,200,000 for damages arising from
Occidental's breach of contract, misrepresentation and failure to pay
outstanding contract amounts. The Company has established additional reserves
for a portion of the receivables related to this matter (see "Note 7 - Special
Charges"). Management believes that it has established adequate reserves should
the resolution of the above matter be lower than the amounts recorded.
As a result of an arbitration proceeding between the Company and Separation and
Recovery Systems, Inc. ("SRS") arising out of the Company's termination of SRS'
subcontract for the performance of thermal desorption services at the
Hilton-Davis Project in Cincinnati, Ohio, SRS was awarded $2,400,000 in damages
from the Company. The Company has established a $2,400,000 reserve for the
arbitration award and has reduced the receivables relating to SRS' subcontract
performance (see "Note 7 - Special Charges"). The Company filed a motion in
federal court to overturn the award and SRS has filed a motion to confirm the
award. The U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Ohio has scheduled a
hearing in September 1997 to decide these two motions.
The Company is in litigation with General Motors Corp. in the U.S. District
Court for the Northern District of New York. GM filed suit in January 1996
alleging that the Company breached a contract between Hughes Environmental
Systems, Inc. (HESI), a GM subsidiary, for work in 1994 for the remediation of
22,000 cubic yards of PCB contaminated sediment in the St. Lawrence River in
Massena. GM seeks damages for $3.8 million. The Company in turn filed suit
against HESI and ERM Northeast, Inc. in U.S. District Court in Northern New York
seeking $3.6 million in damages for breach of contract. The GM suit was later
consolidated with the Company's suit against HESI and ERM. GM alleges that the
Company abandoned the contract through inability to perform while the Company
claims that performance was impacted by conditions at the site that were not as
represented.
In addition to the above, the Company is subject to a number of claims and
lawsuits in the ordinary course of its business. In the opinion of management,
the outcome of these actions, which are not clearly determinable at the present
time, are either adequately covered by insurance or other reserves, or if not
insured or reserved, will not, in the aggregate, have a material adverse impact
upon the Company's consolidated future results of operations or financial
condition.
In the course of the Company's business there is always risk and uncertainty in
pursuing and defending claims, litigation and arbitration proceedings and,
notwithstanding the reserves currently established, adverse future results in
litigation or other proceedings could have a material adverse impact upon the
Company's consolidated future results of operations or financial condition.
NOTE 7 - SPECIAL CHARGES
During the second quarter of 1997, the Company settled litigation and received
an unfavorable binding arbitration decision that established a need to
write-down claims receivable previously recorded by the Company. These actions
together with a thorough analysis by management of other claims, litigation and
the related receivables and a decision by management to establish reserves for
the consolidation of certain laboratory and operational functions resulted in
the Company recording a $22,726,000 (net of $15,151,000 income tax benefit),
charge during the second quarter of 1997.
The following discussion details the various elements of the charge:
Separation and Recovery Systems, Inc. ("SRS"). In June 1997, the
Company received an unfavorable binding arbitration decision in a dispute
between the Company and SRS. SRS's subcontract with the Company to provide
thermal desorption treatment services at the Hilton Davis chemical site in
Cincinnati, Ohio was terminated by the Company in the second quarter of 1996 due
to failure to perform. The Company subsequently attempted to perform the
treatment process with the SRS equipment and was unsuccessful. The inability of
SRS to perform caused the Company to incur significant expense to complete the
required treatment process. The Company's total claim in arbitration against SRS
for the resulting expense of failed performance was $18,500,000 and included
deferred cost of $9,814,000 recorded by the Company as a receivable from SRS. In
addition to not collecting the receivable, the arbitration decision required the
Company to pay SRS $2,400,000 in damages for their counterclaim for wrongful
termination. The Company also established a loss reserve of $2,800,000 to
complete the treatment effort required as a result of the above. Prior to the
arbitration decision the Company had concluded that it was not probable that a
loss had occurred based on the opinion of counsel, consequently the write-off
was taken in the same period that the decision was rendered.

<PAGE> 10
Citgo Petroleum Corporation ("Citgo"). In June 1997, the Company
settled litigation with Citgo and Occidental Oil & Gas (Oxy) relating to a
project which was performed by the Company for Citgo at its Lake Charles,
Louisiana refinery in 1993 and 1994. This litigation resulted from the Company
filing a request for equitable adjustment in April 1994 based on deficient
project specifications provided by Citgo, the subsequent lawsuit filed by Citgo
in April 1994 and the counterclaims filed by the Company in July 1994. In 1995
Citgo and the Company brought separate actions against Oxy as a third party with
previous involvement at the site. Extensive discovery by all parties prior to a
scheduled trial in 1997 led to settlement discussions in the second quarter of
1997. Under the terms of the settlement with Citgo and Oxy, the Company received
a cash payment of $14,346,000 against outstanding receivables of $22,609,000
resulting in a write-off of accounts receivable of $8,263,000. Prior to
accepting the settlement offer, the Company had concluded that it was not
probable that a loss had occurred based on the opinion of legal counsel that
there existed a reasonable basis to support the Company's claim in litigation.
The settlement and resulting write down of accounts receivable occurred after
management completed its assessment of the litigation, the determination of the
maximum amount of settlement that could be obtained and its review of the
disadvantages of continuing litigation which would divert the attention of
company management and resources.
Other Litigation and Accounts Receivable. In addition to the
aforementioned disputes, the Company made a decision to resolve other
significant legal matters involving outstanding accounts receivable. In June
1997, the Company settled outstanding litigation with B&V Construction, Inc.
("B&V") for $1,550,000 pertaining to dispute involving subcontracted services at
a General Motors project in Flight, Michigan during late 1994. Payment to B&V
was made in July 1997. Accounts receivable involving disputes primarily related
to two additional contracts were also written down to facilitate settlement.
These decisions resulted from management's analysis of the unfavorable SRS
arbitration decision and the protracted Citgo litigation and subsequent
settlement. Management concluded that the risk associated with continued pursuit
of legal remedies was not acceptable and the further diversion of management's
attention to effect favorable outcomes was not appropriate. Prior to that time,
the Company had concluded that it was not probable that a loss had occurred
based on the opinion of counsel.
Litigation Costs. As a result of the above legal matters and the
significant expense of resolving such matters, the Company has accrued
$2,100,000 for the expenses of the litigation such as attorney's fees. This
accrual includes costs associated with those matters included in the special
charge discussed above including those that expect to be settled. The Company
concluded that due to the timing of the settlements discussed above, the related
expense of settlement should also be accrued.
Region Reorganization, Laboratory Closure & Severance. In May 1997,
management of the Company made a decision to consolidate certain region
operations, close certain offices and cease commercial laboratory operations.
These decisions were made as a part of a comprehensive plan completed in the
second quarter of 1997 to restructure operations of the Company. Thus, resulting
expense was recognized as a special charge at that time. Employees of the
Company were notified of the reduction in force at that time and substantially
all of the reserve requiring a cash settlement was paid prior to the end of
1997. The components of this special charge were:

NSC Divestiture. During the second quarter of 1997, the Company wrote
down its investment in NSC to the expected net realizable value based on its
plans to sell its 40% share of NSC. As a result, the Company recorded a
$12,089,000 (net of $2,860,000 income tax benefit) charge to earnings. The
Company accounts for its investment in 40% of the outstanding stock of NSC
Corporation on the equity method. Although NSC's stock had traded below the per
share carrying value of the recorded investment for some time prior to June
1997, the Company believed this decline was temporary because NSC had continued
to report net income, positive cash flow from operations, and continued to pay
dividends. In the second quarter of 1997, the Company made the decision to sell
its investment in NSC. The Company concluded in the second quarter of 1997 that
as a result of its decision to sell its investment in NSC, it should record an
impairment loss. This loss was calculated to be $14.9 million before tax which
represents the difference between the Company's carrying amount of its
investment per share ($5.83) and the fair market value per share of NSC's stock
on the day that the Company decided to sell ($2.10) times the 4,010,000 shares
held by the Company.

INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS' REVIEW REPORT
Board of Directors and Shareholders
OHM Corporation
We have reviewed the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of OHM Corporation
as of June 30, 1997, and the related consolidated statements of operations for
the three and six month periods ended June 30, 1997 and 1996 and the
consolidated statements of cash flows for the six month periods ended June 30,
1997 and 1996. These financial statements are the responsibility of the
Company's management.
We conducted our reviews in accordance with standards established by the
American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. A review of interim
financial information consists primarily 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, which will be performed
for the full year with the objective of expressing an opinion regarding the
financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an
opinion.
Based on our reviews, we are not aware of any material modifications that should
be made to the accompanying 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 OHM Corporation as of December 31,
1996, and the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in
shareholders' equity, and cash flows for the year then ended, not present
herein, and in our report dated February 7, 1997, we expressed an unqualified
opinion on those consolidated financial statements. In our opinion, the
information set forth in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet as of
December 31, 1996, is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to
the consolidated balance sheet from which it has been derived.

Item 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS
GENERAL
The Company provides a broad range of environmental and hazardous waste
remediation services to its clients located primarily in the United States. The
timing of the Company's revenue is dependent on its backlog, contract awards and
the performance requirements of each contract. The Company's revenue is also
affected by the timing of its clients' planned remediation activities which
generally increase during the third and fourth quarters. Because of this change
in demand, the Company's quarterly revenue can fluctuate, and revenue for the
first and second quarters of each year have historically been lower than for the
third and fourth quarters, although there can be no assurance that this will
occur in future years. Accordingly, quarterly or other interim results should
not be considered indicative of results to be expected for any quarter or full
fiscal year.
Effective June 1, 1997, the Company acquired all of the outstanding
stock of Beneco Enterprises, Inc., a Utah corporation ("Beneco"), for an
aggregate purchase price of $14,700,000. The purchase price was paid as follows:
(i) $9,700,000 in cash and (ii) unsecured promissory notes in the aggregate of
$5,000,000. Beneco is a provider of project, program and construction management
services to the Department of Defense and other government agencies throughout
the United States. The acquisition of Beneco has been accounted for using the
purchase method and, accordingly, the acquired assets and assumed liabilities,
including goodwill, have been recorded at their estimated fair values as of June
1, 1997. The Company's consolidated statements of operations include the results
of Beneco since June 1, 1997. See "Note 3 to the Consolidated Financial
Statements."
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
REVENUE. The following table sets forth the Company's revenue by client
type for the three and six months ended June 30, 1997 and 1996 (in thousands,
except percentages):

======== === ======== === ======== === ======== ===
</TABLE>
Revenue increased slightly for the three months ended June 30, 1997 by
$136,000 when compared to the same time period in 1996. Such increase in revenue
is primarily due to the inclusion of $8,511,000 of revenue from Beneco which was
acquired effective June 1, 1997. For the six months ended June 30, 1997 revenue
decreased $10,329,000 when compared to the same period in 1996. Such decrease in
revenue is primarily the result of decreased revenue from industrial sector
clients, partially offset by the results of Beneco.
Revenue from government agencies for the three and six months ended
June 30, 1997 increased $7,969,000 or 8% and $9,783,000 or 5%, respectively,
when compared to the same periods in 1996. This improvement resulted primarily
due to the inclusion of $8,511,000 of revenue from Beneco which was acquired
effective June 1, 1997. Beneco's revenue is primarily derived from program and
construction management services provided under term contracts with the various
Department of Defense agencies and state and local governments. The hazardous
waste remediation services business experienced an increase in revenue from the
Company's term contracts with the United States Army Corps of Engineers
("USACE") and the Environmental Protection Agency ("EPA") as well as from state
and local governments during the three and six months ended June 30, 1997 when
compared to the same periods in 1996. Such increases were offset by a decrease
in revenue from the Company's term contracts with the United States Navy and the
United States Air Force. The Company expects to continue to receive funding
under its federal contracts into the foreseeable future and is experiencing a
significant amount of proposal activity for new contracts with the various
Department of Defense agencies, as well as the Department of Energy. However,
reductions by Congress in future environmental remediation budgets of government
agencies may have a material adverse impact upon future revenue from such
agencies and the funding of the Company's government term contracts included in
contract backlog.
The Company experienced a $7,833,000 or 24% decrease in revenue from
industrial clients for the three months ended June 30, 1997 when compared to the
same period in 1996. For the six months ended June 30, 1997, revenue from
industrial clients decreased $20,112,000 or 33% when compared to the same period
in 1996. The Company believes that demand for its services from the industrial
sector has been negatively impacted due to anticipated changes in the Superfund
law pending its reauthorization as well as current economic conditions in
certain industry and geographic sectors. Although the Company cannot predict the
impact upon the environmental industry of the failure of Congress to reauthorize
the Superfund law, further delays in Superfund reauthorization will continue to
have a material adverse impact upon the demand for the Company's services in the
10
<PAGE> 14
form of project delays as clients and potential clients wait for and anticipate
changes in these regulations. The result of decreased demand from the industrial
sector has increased the competitive pressures on the contracts available for
bid from the industrial market. The Company has been very selective in bidding
industrial contracts and has established specific minimum criteria on
profitability and risk in determining whether or not to compete for any given
contract. The Company expects the current market conditions to continue in the
industrial sector into the foreseeable future.
COST OF SERVICES AND GROSS PROFIT. Cost of services decreased and gross
profit increased for the three months when compared to the same periods in 1996
as the Company experienced a slight increase in gross profit as a percentage of
revenue. Both cost of services and gross profit decreased for the six months
ended June 30, 1997, primarily as a result of the decrease in revenue. The
Company's gross profit as a percentage of revenue was negatively impacted during
the three and six months ended June 30, 1997 when compared to the same periods
in 1996 due to decreased margins in the industrial sector resulting from
competitive pressures. This was partially offset by an increase in the margin
percent on the Company's government projects.
Claims Settlement Costs and Other. During the second quarter of 1997,
the Company settled litigation and received an unfavorable binding arbitration
decision that established a need to write-down claims receivable previously
recorded by the Company. These actions together with a thorough analysis by
management of other claims, litigation and the related receivables and a
decision by management to establish reserves for the consolidation of certain
laboratory and operational functions resulted in the Company recording a
$22,726,000 (net of $15,151,000 income tax benefit), charge during the second
quarter of 1997.
The following discussion details the various elements of the charge:
* Separation and Recovery Systems, Inc. ("SRS"). In June 1997, the
Company received an unfavorable binding arbitration decision in a dispute
between the Company and SRS. SRS's subcontract with the Company to provide
thermal desorption treatment services at the Hilton Davis chemical site in
Cincinnati, Ohio was terminated by the Company in the second quarter of 1996 due
to failure to perform. The Company subsequently attempted to perform the
treatment process with the SRS equipment and was unsuccessful. The inability of
SRS to perform caused the Company to incur significant expense to complete the
required treatment process. The Company's total claim in arbitration against SRS
for the resulting expense of failed performance was $18,500,000 and included
deferred cost of $9,814,000 recorded by the Company as a receivable from SRS. In
addition to not collecting the receivable, the arbitration decision required the
Company to pay SRS $2,400,000 in damages for their counterclaim for wrongful
termination. The Company also established a loss reserve of $2,800,000 to
complete the treatment effort required as a result of the above. Prior to the
arbitration decision the Company had concluded that it was not probable that a
loss had occurred based on the opinion of counsel, consequently the write-off
was taken in the same period that the decision was rendered.
* Citgo Petroleum Corporation ("Citgo"). In June 1997, the Company
settled litigation with Citgo and Occidental Oil & Gas (Oxy) relating to a
project which was performed by the Company for Citgo at its Lake Charles,
Louisiana refinery in 1993 and 1994. This litigation resulted from the Company
filing a request for equitable adjustment in April 1994 based on deficient
project specifications provided by Citgo, the subsequent lawsuit filed by Citgo
in April 1994 and the counterclaims filed by the Company in July 1994. In 1995
Citgo and the Company brought separate actions against Oxy as a third party with
previous involvement at the site. Extensive discovery by all parties prior to a
scheduled trial in 1997 led to settlement discussions in the second quarter of
1997. Under the terms of the settlement with Citgo and Oxy, the Company received
a cash payment of $14,346,000 against outstanding receivables of $22,609,000
resulting in a write-off of accounts receivable of $8,263,000. Prior to
accepting the settlement offer, the Company had concluded that it was not
probable that a loss had occurred based on the opinion of legal counsel that
there existed a reasonable basis to support the Company's claim in litigation.
The settlement and resulting write down of accounts receivable occurred after
management completed its assessment of the litigation, the determination of the
maximum amount of settlement that could be obtained and its review of the
disadvantages of continuing litigation which would divert the attention of
company management and resources.
* Other Litigation and Accounts Receivable. In addition to the
aforementioned disputes, the Company made a decision to resolve other
significant legal matters involving outstanding accounts receivable. In June
1997, the Company settled outstanding litigation with B&V Construction, Inc.
("B&V") for $1,550,000 pertaining to a dispute involving subcontracted services
at a General Motors project in Flint, Michigan during late 1994. Payment to B&V
was made in July 1997. Accounts receivable involving disputes primarily related
to two additional contracts were also written down to facilitate settlement.
These decisions resulted from management's analysis of the unfavorable SRS
arbitration decision and the protracted Citgo litigation and subsequent
settlement and concluded that the risk associated with continued pursuit of
legal remedies was not acceptable and the further diversion of management's
attention to effect favorable outcomes was not appropriate. Prior to that time,
the Company had concluded that it was not probable that a loss had occurred
based on the opinion of counsel.
* Litigation Costs. As a result of the above discussed legal matters
and the significant expense of resolving such matters, the Company has accrued
$2,100,000 for the expenses of the litigation such as attorney's fees. This
accrual includes costs associated with those matters included in the special
charge discussed above including those that expect to be settled. The
11
<PAGE> 15
Company concluded that due to the timing of the settlements discussed above, the
related expense of settlement should also be accrued.
* Region Reorganization Laboratory Closure & Severance. In May 1997,
management of the Company made a decision to consolidate certain regional
operations, close certain offices and cease commercial laboratory operations.
These decisions were made as a part of a comprehensive plan completed in the
second quarter of 1997 to restructure operations of the company. Thus, resulting
expense was recognized as a special charge at that time. Employees of the
Company were notified of the reduction in force at that time and substantially
all of the reserve requiring a cash settlement was paid prior to the end of
1997. The components of this special charge were:

PROVISIONS FOR BAD DEBTS. The Company's provision for bad debts,
excluding items recorded as a part of the claims settlement costs, was $650,000
and $1,879,000 for the six months ended June 30, 1997 and 1996, respectively.
The provision was higher in 1996 primarily due to settlement of rate variances
for government cost plus contracts. The provision for bad debts with respect to
claims settlements is discussed in Claims Settlement Costs and Other above.
SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES. Selling, general and
administrative ("SGA") expenses decreased $452,000 or 4% and $1,219,000 or 5%,
for the three and six months ended June 30, 1997, respectively, when compared to
the same periods in 1996. SGA expense as a percentage of revenue was 9% for all
periods presented. SGA expense has decreased primarily as a result of decreased
revenues and reductions made to overhead expenses.
INTEREST EXPENSE. Interest expense decreased 38% and 34% during the
three and six months ended June 30, 1997, respectively, when compared to the
same periods in 1996. The decrease in interest expense was a result of a
decrease in the average borrowings outstanding under the Company's revolving
credit agreement during such periods in 1997 when compared to the same periods
in 1996.
EQUITY IN NET EARNINGS OF AFFILIATE. The Company's equity interest in
NSC's net earnings was $0 and $185,000 for the three and six months ended June
30, 1997, respectively. NSC's net income has decreased primarily as a result of
decreased revenues in its Olshan demolition business. In addition, NSC has
experienced a decrease in gross profit as a result of margin deterioration and
losses incurred on certain of its projects during 1997.
WRITE DOWN OF INVESTMENT IN NSC. During the second quarter of 1997, the
Company wrote down its investment in NSC to the expected net realizable value
based on its plans to sell its 40% share of NSC. As a result, the Company
recorded a $12,089,000 (net of $2,860,000 income tax benefit) charge to
earnings. The Company accounts for the investment in 40% of the outstanding
stock of NSC Corporation on the equity method. Although NSC's stock had traded
below the per share carrying value of the recorded investment for some time
prior to June 1997, the Company believed this decline was temporary because NSC
had continued to report net income, positive cash flow from operations, and
continued to pay dividends. In the second quarter of 1997, the Company made the
decision to sell its investment in NSC. The company concluded in the second
quarter of 1997 that as a result of its decision to sell its investment in NSC,
it should record an impairment loss. This loss was calculated to be $14.9
million before tax which represents the difference between the Company's
carrying amount of its investment per share ($5.83) and the fair market value
per share of NSC's stock on the day that the Company decided to sell ($2.10)
times the
12
<PAGE> 16
4,010,000 shares held by the Company.
NET INCOME (LOSS). Net income (loss) for the three months ended
June 30, 1997 was $(31,609,000) or $(1.16) per share compared to $2,379,000 or
$0.09 per share for the same period in 1996. For the six months ended June 30,
1997, net income (loss) was $(30,171,000) or $(1.11) per share compared to
$3,709,000 or $0.14 per share for the same period in 1996. Such losses were a
result of the aforementioned charges recorded during the second quarter of 1997.
Without such charges, net income would have been $3,206,000 or $0.12 per share
and $4,644,000 or $0.17 per share, for the three and six months ended June 30,
1997, respectively.
The effective income tax rate was 34% and 33% for the three months
ended June 30, 1997 and 1996, respectively. For the six month period ending June
30, 1997 and 1996, the effective income tax rate was 34% and 33%, respectively.
See "Note 4 to the Consolidated Financial Statements" for a reconciliation of
the statutory federal income tax rate to the effective income tax rate.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
On May 31, 1995, the Company entered into a $150,000,000 revolving
credit agreement with a group of banks (the "Bank Group") to provide letters of
credit and cash borrowings. The agreement has a five year term and is scheduled
to expire on May 30, 2000. WMX has issued a guarantee of up to $62,000,000
outstanding under the credit agreement in favor of the Bank Group. Under the
terms of the agreement the entire credit facility can be used for either cash
borrowings or letters of credit. Cash borrowings bear interest at either the
prime rate plus a percentage up to 0.625% or, at the Company's option, the
Eurodollar market rate plus a percentage ranging from 0.325% to 1.625%. The
percentage over the prime rate or the Eurodollar market rate is based on the
aggregate amount borrowed under the facility, the presence of the guarantee, and
the Company's financial performance as measured by an interest coverage ratio
and a total funded debt ratio. The agreement provides the participating banks
with a security interest in the Company's equipment, inventories, accounts
receivable, general intangibles and in the Company's investment in the common
stock of NSC as well as the Company's other subsidiaries. The agreement also
imposes, among other covenants, a minimum tangible net worth covenant, a
restriction on all of the Company's retained earnings including the declaration
and payment of cash dividends and a restriction on the ratio of total funded
debt to earnings before income taxes, depreciation and amortization. There were
no amounts outstanding for cash borrowing under the revolving credit facility at
June 30, 1997 or December 31, 1996. Aggregate letters of credit outstanding at
June 30, 1997 and December 31, 1996 were $14,108,000 and $12,223,000,
respectively.
Capital expenditures for the six months ended June 30, 1997 and 1996,
were $10,529,000 and $11,221,000, respectively. The Company's capital
expenditures are primarily related to the installation of computer systems and
related equipment, the purchase of heavy equipment and the fabrication of custom
equipment by the Company for the execution of remediation projects. Capital
expenditures for the entire fiscal year 1997 are expected to range between
$20,000,000 and $25,000,000. The Company's long-term capital expenditure
requirements are dependent upon the type and size of future remediation projects
awarded to the Company.
The Company believes that the government sector will continue to be its
primary source of revenue for the foreseeable future in light of its contract
backlog with federal government agencies. Revenue from government agencies
historically has required greater working capital, the major component of which
is accounts receivable, than revenue from industrial sector clients. In
addition, the Company is bidding on a number of large, long-term contract
opportunities which, if awarded to the Company, would also increase working
capital needs and capital expenditures. The Company believes it will be able to
finance its working capital needs and capital expenditures in the short term
through a combination of cash flows from operations, borrowing under its
revolving credit facility, proceeds from permitted asset sales and other
external sources. In addition, in connection with the acquisition of Rust
Remedial Services, its parent company, Waste Management, Inc., has provided the
Company with a credit guarantee of up to $62,000,000 of the Company's
indebtedness outstanding until May 30, 2000. Such credit guarantee has allowed
the Company to expand its borrowing capacity and lower its cost of capital under
its new credit facility entered into on May 31, 1995.
The Company, from time to time, evaluates potential acquisitions of
companies in the environmental remediation industry and industries related to
the core skills of the Company. While the Company believes that there are
currently available a number of potential acquisition candidates that would be
complementary to its business, the Company currently has no agreements,
understandings or arrangements to acquire a specific business or other material
assets. The Company cannot predict whether it will be successful in pursuing
such acquisition opportunities or what the consequences of any such acquisition
would be. Future acquisitions may involve the expenditure of significant funds
and management time. Depending upon the nature, size and timing of future
acquisitions, the Company may be required to raise additional capital through
financings, including public or private equity or debt offerings or additional
bank financings. There is no assurance that such additional financing will be
available to the Company on acceptable terms.
13
<PAGE> 17
The Company's identified long-term capital needs consist of payments
due upon the maturity of the Company's Revolving Credit Facility in 2000 and
sinking fund payments which commenced in 1996 of 7.5% of the principal amount as
well as payments due upon maturity of its Convertible Debentures in 2006. The
Company has purchased and retired $10,736,000 of the outstanding Convertible
Debentures during 1995 and 1996, sufficient to meet its annual sinking fund
obligations through October 1, 1997, as well as a portion of the sinking fund
obligation due October 1, 1998. The Company believes that it will be able to
refinance the remaining indebtedness as necessary.
ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS AND GOVERNMENT CONTRACTING
Although the Company believes that it generally benefits from increased
environmental regulations and from enforcement of those regulations, increased
regulation and enforcement also create significant risks for the Company. The
assessment, remediation, analysis, handling and management of hazardous
substances necessarily involve significant risks, including the possibility of
damages or injuries caused by the escape of hazardous materials into the
environment, and the possibility of fines, penalties or other regulatory action.
These risks include potentially large civil and criminal liabilities for
violations of environmental laws and regulations, and liabilities to customers
and to third parties for damages arising from performing services for clients,
which could have a material adverse effect on the Company.
The Company does not believe there are currently any material
environmental liabilities which should be recorded or disclosed in its financial
statements. The Company anticipates that its compliance with various laws and
regulations relating to the protection of the environment will not have a
material effect on its capital expenditures, future earnings or competitive
position.
Because of its dependence on government contracts, the Company also
faces the risks associated with such contracting, which could include civil and
criminal fines and penalties. As a result of its government contracting
business, the Company has been, is, and may in the future be subject to audits
and investigations by government agencies. The fines and penalties which could
result from noncompliance with the Company's government contracts or appropriate
standards and regulations, or the Company's suspension or debarment from future
government contracting, could have a material adverse effect on the Company's
business.
