                  WHITNEY AMERICAN CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARY
                  NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                  FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED AUGUST 31, 1999
                                  (UNAUDITED)

NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES

     Basis of Presentation and Consolidation
     ---------------------------------------

     The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of
     Whitney American Corporation (the "Company") and its wholly owned
     subsidiary, Kemron Environmental Services, Inc. ("Kemron") have been
     prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for
     interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q.  In
     the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for a fair
     presentation of such financial statements have been included.  Such
     adjustments consisted only of normal recurring items.  The company acquired
     Kemron during fiscal year 1998 (see NOTE 2) and began presenting results on
     a consolidated basis.  All significant intercompany balances and
     transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.  Operating results for
     the three months ended August 31, 1999 are not necessarily indicative of
     the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending May 31, 2000 or
     for any other future period.  Additional information is contained in the
     Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended May 31, 1999, which should
     be read in conjunction with this quarterly report.

     Use of Estimates
     ----------------

     Management uses estimates and assumptions in preparing financial statements
     in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.  Those
     estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and
     liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, and the
     reported revenues and expenses.  Actual results could vary from the
     estimates that were assumed in preparing the financial statements.

     Federal Income Taxes
     --------------------

     No federal income tax has been provided for the three months ended August
     31, 1999 due to the existence of unused net operating loss carryforwards.

     Property and Equipment
     ----------------------

     Property and equipment is stated at cost.  Depreciation is computed using
     the straight-line method based on the estimated useful lives of the asset.
     Amortization of leasehold improvements is computed on the term of the lease
     or its useful life, whichever is less.

     Revenue Recognition
     -------------------

     The Company recognizes revenue generally at the time services are
     performed.  On fixed price contracts, revenue is recognized on the basis of
     the estimated percentage of completion of services rendered.  On cost
     reimbursement contracts, revenue is recognized as costs are incurred and
     includes applicable fees earned essentially in the proportion that costs
     incurred bear to total estimated final costs.  Materials and subcontract
     costs reimbursed by client are included in gross revenue.  Anticipated
     losses are recognized in the period in which the losses are reasonably
     determinable.  Substantially all unbilled receivables are expected to be
     collected within the next 12 months and retention balances to be collected
     at the close of the respective project.

                                       5
<PAGE>

     A portion of contracts with the United States Government and State
     Agencies, are subject to audit and adjustment.  Revenue has been recorded
     in amounts expected to be realized on final settlement.  Included in
     accounts receivable are revenues from claims where recovery is probable in
     the opinion of management.

NOTE 2 - MERGER

     On March 10, 1998, Kemron Environmental Services, Inc. ("Kemron") merged
     with and into Whitney American Corporation (the "Company").  Pursuant to
     the merger agreement, each outstanding share of Kemron common stock was
     converted into shares of the outstanding common stock of the Company.  Upon
     consummation of the Merger, the stockholders of Kemron became the owners in
     the aggregate of approximately 86% of the outstanding common stock of the
     Company; and the directors and officers of Kemron became directors and
     officers of the Company.  Prior to the Merger, the Company had no operating
     activities.

     The Merger was structured as a tax-free reorganization and was accounted
     for using the pooling-of-interests method.  The Company has reflected in
     its consolidated financial statements the assets, liabilities and equity of
     Kemron at its historical book value.  Accordingly, the consolidated results
     of operations and financial position of the Company for periods and dates
     prior to the Merger are the combined historical results of operations and
     financial position of Kemron for such periods and dates.

     All historical shares of common stock and per share amounts for periods
     prior to the Merger have been retroactively adjusted to reflect the Company
     shares issued to the Kemron shareholders at the time of the Merger.

NOTE 3 - SEGMENT INFORMATION

 The Company's reportable segments are strategic business units that offer
 different services.  The Company has two reportable segments: analytical and
 consulting services.  Analytical services include lab testing services for
 varying analytical programs such as NPDES, RCRA, CERCLA and OSHA.  Consulting
 services provide investigations and assessment services at non-regulated
 contaminated sites and at sites covered by RCRA and CERCLA regulations, which
 investigations may include preliminary assessments, site investigations,

Item 2.  Management's Discussion and Analysis

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

FINANCIAL CONDITION

As of August 31, 1999, the Company's working capital balance increased from
$1,079,595 at May 31, 1999 to $1,416,247.  This increase was the result of
profits generated during the three month period.  The current liabilities
decreased by $54,412 while the accounts receivables increased by $283,686.  The
increase in accounts receivable is primarily due to increased revenues and
billing activity during the first quarter.

The Company maintains a line of credit of $1.8 million with a bank, secured by
the Company's accounts receivable.  The line of credit has provided a
significant source of the Company's cash requirements.  The actual balance on
the line of credit will fluctuate during the period based on financing
activities.  There are no significant working capital requirements pending at
August 31, 1999.  The Company's available line of credit is expected to be
sufficient to meet the Company's needs for the foreseeable future.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Revenues for the first quarter were $3,311,892, which represents a decrease of
less than 1% from the last year's first quarter revenues of $3,334,898.  The
consistent revenue trend is the result of offsetting effects of decreased sales
generated by the consulting services and the increased sales generated by the
laboratory operation.

The laboratory received significant project awards from four of its existing
clients.  Although the laboratory has provided services to these clients over
the past few fiscal years, the volume of work had increased by $499,000 in the
current fiscal year for these particular clients as compared to the first
quarter of fiscal year 1999.  This constitutes the majority of the $467,000
increase in laboratory sales experienced in the quarter ended August 31, 1999 as
compared to the same quarter in fiscal year 1999.

The consulting services reported a significant decline in first quarter
revenues, a $491,000 decrease when compared to the quarter ended August 31,
1998.  The decrease can be attributed to two specific projects that were
significantly completed in the fiscal year ended May 31, 1999;  a project for
work at Cleveland Hopkins Airport and a state funded substance removal contract.
The work at Cleveland Hopkins Airport has dropped off since fiscal year 1999.
The contract for substance removal work ended prior to the first quarter of the
current fiscal year.  Both of these projects required extensive subcontractor
support and, although they accounted for a combined $412,000 decrease of
revenues for the quarter ending August 31, 1999 versus a year earlier, a large
portion of these revenues were purchased services from outside

subcontractors. As a result, the consulting services operation experienced
minimal profit deterioration from this lost contract revenue.

Gross profit was 33.0% and 22.8% of revenues for the three months ending August
31, 1999 and 1998, respectively.  The Company considers gross margin of 33.0% to
be within the range for normal operations.   Net income improved significantly
for the three months ended August 31, 1999 with a 11.1% profit as compared to
4.0% for the quarter ended August 31, 1998.  The improvements of both gross
profit and net income are attributed to the increased sales volume generated by
the laboratory operation.  The laboratory experiences significant increases in
profit margins as a result of increased sales.  This is due to the high level of
fixed operating costs in the laboratory facility, sales that exceed the
breakeven threshold will yield much larger profit percentages.  This is
illustrated with the increase of $499,000 in laboratory revenues that produced a
corresponding increase of $296,000 in profit margins when comparing the first
quarter of 1999 versus 1998

SG&A expense was $331,191 for the quarter ended August 31, 1999, up 33.1% from
the first quarter of 1998.  The increase is attributed to the additional
marketing efforts as well as the recognition of the profit sharing plan that was
implemented during fiscal year 1999.

Interest expense was $31,574 for the three months ended August 31, 1999, a
decrease of 44.1% as compared to last year.   The company continues to
strengthen its financial position, thereby reducing the borrowings from the
lender's line of credit.

YEAR 2000

The company is in process of upgrading its computer applications to ensure
functionality with respect to the Year 2000.  The Year 2000 issue affects most
corporations and concerns the inability of information systems, primarily
computer software programs, to properly recognize and process date-sensitive
information relating to the Year 2000 and beyond.  The Company believes it is
pursuing appropriate courses of action to identify and address Year 2000
readiness.

The principal operating functions that are dependent on information systems have
been identified, primarily the accounting system and operating systems that
support the laboratory instruments.  Most of the related information systems
have already been converted and tested for Year 2000 compliance.  Any remaining
Year 2000 initiatives are scheduled to be complete by mid-year 1999.

The Company is giving consideration to the status of compliance by third party
suppliers.  Failure by third party suppliers to become Year 2000 compliant could
impact the Company's ability to obtain products or services as scheduled, which
could potentially result in delays in meeting clients orders.  The Company has
undertaken initiatives to review the Year 2000 readiness of clients which are
material to the Company's business.  Failure by material customers to become
Year 2000 compliant could result in the company's inability to obtain or perform
work on a timely basis for such customers, leading to delays in receipt of
revenue.

A formal contingency plan will not be formulated unless the Company identifies
specific areas where there is substantial risk of Year 2000 problems occurring,
and no such areas have been identified as of this date.

risks or uncertainties materialize, or should underlying assumptions prove
incorrect, actual results my vary materially from those described in this report
as anticipated, estimated or expected.  The Company's realization of its
business aims will depend in the near future principally on the successful
completion of its acquisition of operations as discussed below.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

During the three months ended August 31, 1999, the Company's line of credit
increased by $550,000 to $900,000.  This was the result of increased payment
activity with vendors and suppliers along with slowed collections on specific
receivable accounts.  These receivables are not considered by management to be
impaired in any way.

Cash flows used in operating activities totaled $345,908 for the three months
ended August 31, 1999.  Cash outflows consist primarily of reductions in
accounts payable and accrued expenses for the three months equalling $440,007.
The net income for the three months was offset by an increases in the accounts
receivable, these netted a $84,000 cash inflow.

Cash used in investing activities totaled $294,292 for the current year's first
quarter.  The significant cash outflow relates to the continued commitment of
the Company to provide the laboratory with instrumentation and equipment that is
on the leading edge of technology.  $329,927 of equipment purchases were
incurred during the first three months of the year.
