Item 1.     Financial Statements

Note 1.   Basis of Presentation

     The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of Leak-X 
Environmental Corporation (the "Company") have been prepared in accordance 
with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial 
information and with the instructions to Form 10-QSB and Article 10 of 
Regulation S-X.  Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and 
footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete 
financial statements.  In the opinion of management, all adjustments 
considered necessary for a fair presentation (consisting of normal recurring 
accruals) have been included.  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.  Operating results for the six month period ended June 30, 1998 
are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year 
ending December 31, 1998.  For further information, refer to the consolidated 
financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company's Annual 
Report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 1997.  Per share data 
for the periods are based upon the weighted average number of shares of 
common stock outstanding during such periods, plus net additional shares issued
upon exercise of options and warrants (see Note 4).

Note 2.   Financial Matters

     Total interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 1998 and June 
30, 1997 was $35,136 and $42,847, respectively.

Note 3.  Discontinued Operations

     Net assets of discontinued operations at June 30, 1998 consist of 
accounts receivable of $499,234.  Net liabilities of discontinued operations 
at June 30, 1998 include accounts payable and accrued expenses of $346,251 
and $71,103, respectively.

Note 4.  Income from Continuing Operations per Share

     The following is a reconciliation of the numerator and denominator 
underlying the income from continuing operations per share calculations:

</TABLE>

     Because the Company incurred net losses for the three months ended June 
30, 1998 and the six months ended June 30, 1997, the reconciliation for those 
periods have not been presented since any incremental shares converted would 
be anti-dilutive to the net loss for the respective periods then ended.

Note 5.  Line of Credit

     On July 8, 1998, the Company signed a Loan Modification Agreement (the 
"Modification Agreement") to the Company's Revolving Credit Agreement (the 
"Credit Agreement") with First Union National Bank.  The Modification 
Agreement extended the Credit Agreement from July 1, 1998 to December 31, 
1998.  All other terms of the Credit Agreement remained unchanged.  The 
Company had $143,000 of available borrowing under the Credit Agreement at 
June 30, 1998.

Item 2.  Management's Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation

Results of Operations

Quarter Ended June 30, 1998 Compared to the Quarter Ended June 30, 1997

     Net revenue decreased 5% to $2,304,534 for the quarter ended June 30, 
1998 (the "1998 Quarter") compared to $2,425,605 for the quarter ended June 
30, 1997 (the "1997 Quarter").  The decrease in revenues is attributable to a 
decrease in environmental consulting services due to lower volume of 
construction management services. 

     The Company's gross margin remained consistent at 26% in the 1998 
Quarter as compared to a gross margin of 25% in the 1997 Quarter.  The
Company's environmental consulting business attained 12% higher gross margin,
however, the improvement was offset by a 27% decrease in gross margin at the
Company's groundwater remediation business primarily due to higher production
costs.

     Selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") expenses increased $56,006 
to $643,945 for the 1998 Quarter, as compared to $587,939 in the 1997 
Quarter.  This increase is partly attributable to the investment being made 
in the Company's new environmental monitoring services in the 1998 Quarter.  In 
addition, the Company had reduced SG&A expenses in the 1997 Quarter through 
partial waivers of two officers' salaries of $11,335 in the aggregate which 
did not occur in the 1998 Quarter.  This was offset, in part, by the 
elimination of goodwill amortization in the 1998 Quarter as compared to 
$15,000 of goodwill amortization in the 1997 Quarter. The Company continues 
to use available resources to pursue its growth.

     The net loss in the 1998 Quarter was $59,725 as compared to net income 
of $11,293 in the 1997 Quarter.  The change is attributable to losses incurred 
at the Company's groundwater remediation business.  The Company incurred higher 
interest expense of $19,278 in the 1998 Quarter, as compared to $17,773 in 
the 1997 Quarter due to a higher use of debt in the 1998 Quarter.

Six Months Ended June 30, 1998 Compared to the Six Months Ended June 30, 1997

     Net revenue increased 11% to $4,891,039 for the six months ended June 
30, 1998 (the "1998 Period") compared to $4,422,495 for the six months ended
June 30, 1997 (the "1997 Period").  The increase in revenues is primarily 
attributable to a 32% increase in sales at the Company's groundwater 
remediation business due to a higher demand for remediation systems.  
Revenues for the Company's environmental consulting services remained
consistent. 

     The Company's gross margin remained relatively consistent at 27% for the 
1998 Period as compared to a gross  margin of 26% in the 1997 Period.

     SG&A expenses increased $111,562 to $1,279,942 for the 1998 Period, as 
compared to $1,168,380 in the 1997 Period.  This increase is partly 
attributable to the investment being made in the Company's new environmental 
monitoring services.  In addition, the Company had significantly reduced SG&A 
expenses in the 1997 Period through partial waivers of two officers' salaries 
of $61,940 in the aggregate which did not occur in the 1998 Period.  This was 
offset, in part, by the elimination of goodwill amortization in the 1998 
Period as compared to $30,000 of goodwill amortization in the 1997 Period.
 
     Net income in the 1998 Period was $8,451 as compared to a net loss of 
$42,326 in the 1997 Period.  The improvement is attributable to a 30% 
increase in net income in the Company's environmental service business.  The
Company incurred slightly lower interest expense of $35,136 in the 1998 Period,
as compared to $36,962 in the 1997 Period.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

     The Company utilized $192,342 of cash from operating activities in the 
1998 Period as compared to providing $8,629 in the 1997 Period.  The primary 
change in the utilization of cash from operating activities was the decrease 
in unearned revenue (i.e., monies received in advance of services performed) 
in the 1998 Period.

     Net cash used by investing activities in the 1998 Period was $57,857 as 
compared to $3,973 net cash used in the 1997 Period.  Capital expenditures, 
which were primarily for computer equipment, remained relatively consistent.  
The 1998 Period included $43,516 for an investment in the expansion of an 
existing product line and the 1997 Period included $14,079 of cash received 
from the sale of an asset.

     Net cash provided by financing activities was $160,378 in the 1998 
Period as compared to $135,493 in the 1997 Period. During the 1998 and 1997
Periods, the Company borrowed $185,000 and $200,000, respectively, on its line
of credit in order to support ongoing operations.  The Company paid out $35,297 
on the notes payable to directors in the 1997 Period.  The Company continued 
to make scheduled payments on its long-term debt in the 1998 Period and 1997 
Period. 

     The Company's working capital deficit was consistent at $310,961 at June 
30, 1998 as compared to $296,355 at December 31, 1997.  Even though the 
working capital deficit remained consistent, the Company did increase its 
bank borrowings in order to support the Company's ongoing operations.

     Backlog at June 30, 1998 was $4,800,000 which is lower than the level at 
December 31, 1997 of $5,800,000, primarily as a result of a higher percentage 
of completion of ongoing projects which were booked at the beginning of the 
fiscal year.  The Company believes that all of the current backlog will be 
completed in 1998, although no assurance of this can be given.   Much of the 
Company's backlog is subject to termination at will and rescheduling without 
significant penalty.

     The Company has upgraded its internal computerized information systems 
to ensure that it is able to accurately process information that may be date 
sensitive and to be Year 2000 compliant.  The Company is in the process of 
evaluation of compliance with the Year 2000 by its primary suppliers and 
customers.  The potential does exist that if customers of the Company are not 
Year 2000 compliant, payments to the Company in the first quarter of the Year 
2000 could be delayed until the customers are able to correct their Year 2000 
compliance deficiencies.

     In May 1998, the Company received a notice from The Nasdaq Stock Market, 
Inc. stating that the Company was not in compliance with the new tangible net 
worth requirement, pursuant to the NASD Marketplace Rules, which became 
effective on February 23, 1998.  The Company's common stock was delisted from 
the Nasdaq SmallCap Market as of June 8, 1998.  

     Management has maintained control of overhead expenses and operating 
margins.  However, there is no assurance that the cost controlling measures 
will be sufficient to permit the Company to meet its financial obligations 
while providing capital for ongoing operations.

     The Company deems its present facilities and equipment adequate for its 
immediate needs and it has no material commitments for capital expenditures.  
The Company believes its present liquidity and cash flow are adequate for its 
current needs.  There can be no assurance, however, that additional 
financing, whether from debt or equity, will be available to the Company
when needed on commercially reasonable terms, or at all.

     The Company's management believes that inflation has not had a 
significant impact on its business during the past three years.

     The statements contained herein include forward looking statements that 
involve a number of risks and uncertainties.  In addition to the facts 
discussed, among the other factors that could cause actual results to differ 
materially are the following: enforcement of environmental regulations, 
business conditions and growth in the industry and general economy; 
competitive factors, such as rival designs and prices; inventory risks due to 
shifts in market demand; changes in sales mix; and the risk factors listed 
from time to time in the Company's SEC reports.
