                 TANKNOLOGY ENVIRONMENTAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
              NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.    SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:

     The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the
accounts of Tanknology Environmental, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries
(the "Company"). The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have
been prepared consistent with the accounting policies reflected in the audited
consolidated financial statements included in the Company's Form 10-K filed with
the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 27, 1996, and should be read in
conjunction therewith.

     In management's opinion, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial
statements include all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the
Company's consolidated financial position at June 30, 1996, the consolidated
results of its operations for the three-month and six-month periods ended June
30, 1996 and 1995, and its consolidated cash flows for the six-month periods
ended June 30, 1996 and 1995. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring
nature. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for a full
year.

      Principles of Consolidation

     The consolidated financial statements of the Company include the accounts
of Tanknology Environmental, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All
material intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in
consolidation. Prior year amounts in the consolidated statement of operations
and related notes thereto have been restated to reflect the Company's Mankoff,
Inc. ("Mankoff") and Engineered Systems, Inc. ("ESI") subsidiaries as
discontinued operations as discussed in Note 4. All amounts related to the
statement of operations are from continuing operations unless otherwise
indicated.

      Short-Term Investments

     Short-term investments are those with maturities greater than three months
when purchased. The Company has classified all investments as
available-for-sale. When purchased, securities are recorded at cost and adjusted
for unrealized holding gains and losses due to market fluctuations. Gains and
losses are recorded upon the sales of short-term investments based upon the
specific identification method.

      Inventories

     Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out) or
market. Reserves are established against inventories for excess, slow moving and
obsolete items and for items where net realizable value is less than cost. At
June 30, 1996 and December 31, 1995, the inventory reserve balance was $510,480.

      Income Taxes

     The provision for income taxes includes federal, foreign, state, and local
income taxes currently payable and those deferred because of temporary
differences between the financial statements and tax bases of assets and
liabilities. The difference between the statutory tax rate and the rate
reflected on the statement of operations for each period presented, is due to
the nondeductibility of certain expenses.

      Earnings Per Common Share

     Primary earnings per share is based on the weighted average number of
shares outstanding during the period after consideration of the dilutive effect
of stock options or warrants reflected under the treasury stock method. Fully
diluted earnings per share are not presented because such amounts would be the
same as amounts computed for primary earnings per share.

      New Accounting Standards

     Effective January 1, 1996, the Company adopted SFAS No. 121, entitled
"Accounting for the Impairment of Long-lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to
be Disposed of." The effect of this adoption was not material to the Company's
financial position or results of operations.

     The Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 123, entitled
"Accounting for Stock- Based Compensation," in October 1995. Effective January
1, 1996, the Company has elected to adopt the disclosure requirements of SFAS
No. 123.

3.    NOTES PAYABLE:

     The Company has a $10 million unsecured revolving credit facility with a
bank. The Company is required to maintain certain financial covenants regarding
net worth and debt to cash flow. No borrowings were outstanding under such bank
credit facility at June 30, 1996. The amounts available under the credit
facility are reduced by amounts outstanding under letters of credit issued on
behalf of the Company by the same bank. At June 30, 1996, $106,000 was issued
under letter of credit agreements. This credit facility matured in July 1996.

                 TANKNOLOGY ENVIRONMENTAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
              NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, Continued

     At December 31, 1995, the Company had outstanding notes payable of $28,939
issued for the financing of insurance premiums. The notes matured in February
1996.

4.    DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS:

     During 1995, the Board of Directors of the Company elected to discontinue
operations at its Mankoff and ESI subsidiaries and put the assets of the
businesses up for sale.

     Mankoff's operations were discontinued as of June 30, 1995. Mankoff's
revenues were $6,353,000 for the year ended December 31, 1995. Mankoff was sold
on December 21, 1995, for $1,500,000 in cash and two twenty-four month
non-interest bearing notes receivable totalling $805,000. The purchaser has also
assumed the performance of all contract obligations of Mankoff. A provision for
loss on disposition of Mankoff of $3,610,000 net of an income tax benefit of
$1,892,000 has been recorded as a result of the sale.

     ESI's operations were discontinued as of December 31, 1995. ESI's revenues
were $3,718,000, for the year ended December 31, 1995. A provision for estimated
loss on disposition of ESI of $3,715,000, including write-off of goodwill and
estimated losses through the expected date of sale, has been recorded net of an
income tax benefit of $1,914,000. The amounts the Company will ultimately
realize could differ materially from the amounts assumed in arriving at the
estimated loss from discontinued operations. The remaining net assets of ESI
principally consist of accounts receivable, inventories and property, plant and
equipment offset by accrued liabilities including estimated losses through the
expected date of sale. The Company will fulfill all contract obligations of ESI
unless a buyer of the business assumes performance of its contracts. ESI's
operating losses for the six months ended June 30, 1996 totaled $1,352,000 and
were netted against the reserve for estimated loss on disposition.

5.    COMMON STOCK AND STOCK OPTIONS:

     On January 1, 1996, the Company issued 7,000 shares of Restricted Stock
with a market value of $12,740 to seven directors of the Company, in accordance
with its 1991 Nonemployee Director Plan.

6.    COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES:

     The Company is involved in litigation and routine claims from time to time.
Certain of the Company's litigation and claims are covered by insurance with a
maximum deductible of $150,000, or in some cases, $200,000. In Management's
opinion, the total estimated litigation liability and related insurance claims
are not material to the Company's consolidated financial position, results of
operations or cash flows.

      Item 2.     Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
                  and Results of Operations

Three Months Ended June 30, 1996 Compared to Three Months
Ended June 30, 1995

     Revenues from continuing operations increased 7.5% to $6,484,000 during the
three months ended June 30, 1996 from $6,029,000 during the three months ended
June 30, 1995. Cathodic protection service revenues increased by $372,000 from
$281,000 during the April-June 1995 period to $653,000 during the same period in
the current year as the Company's major corrosion protection customers increased
purchases of these systems.

     Gross profit increased $835,000 to $2,776,000 during the second three
months of 1996 from $1,941,000 during the second quarter of 1995. When measured
as a percentage of revenues, the gross margin improved to 42.8% in 1996 from
32.2% in 1995. Such gross profit increase and gross margin improvement are
principally the result of higher revenues during the 1996 period compared to
1995, as well as inventory write downs during the second quarter of 1995
totalling $420,000 due to the Company's decision to abandon certain leak
detection techniques. The increase in revenues is primarily due to the increase
in cathodic protection revenues coupled with increased sales of other testing
services provided by the Company.

     Selling, general and administrative expenses remained relatively flat,
increasing from $2,587,000 during the second quarter of 1995 to $2,593,000
during the same period in the current year. Other income and expense increased
to $198,000 during the April-June 1996 quarter from $195,000 in the prior year
period.

     During the second three months of 1995, the Company's discontinued
operations of Mankoff, Inc. and Engineered Systems, Inc. recorded losses
totalling $4,956,000. The assets of Mankoff were sold in December of 1995, while
Engineered Systems is currently owned by Tanknology but is treated as a
discontinued operation. The Company reported no income or loss from discontinued
operations during the second three months of 1996, as estimated losses through
the expected date of sale were previously accrued.

     During the three months ended June 30, 1996, the Company earned $222,000
(3.4% of revenues) from continuing operations compared to a loss of $235,000
(3.9% of revenues) for the three months ended June 30, 1995. After consideration
of losses from discontinued operations, the Company recorded a net loss of
$5,191,000 during the second quarter of 1995.

Six Months Ended June 30, 1996 Compared to Six Months
Ended June 30, 1995

     Revenues from continuing operations declined 3.5% from $12,269,000 during
the first six months of 1995 to $11,838,000 during the six months ended June 30,
1996. Underground storage tank ("UST") testing service revenues declined by
$680,000 to $9,569,000 during the first two quarters of 1996 from $10,249,000
during the same period in 1995. The number of USTs tested using the Company's
VacuTect process dropped to 13,670 during the first half of 1996 from 15,599
during the prior year period, primarily due to a change in method of compliance
with EPA regulations to monthly monitoring of tanks rather than annual tightness
testing by some owners and operators of USTs, as well as a dwindling number of
USTs in service that require release detection. Revenues declined to $1,931,000
during the January-June 1996 period from $2,103,000 during the same period in
1995 at the Company's USTMAN subsidiary, principally due to the sale of a
license

                                        9

that occurred during the 1995 first quarter and was not repeated in the current
year. Revenues from cathodic protection services increased $346,000 to
$1,165,000 during the first two quarters of 1996 from $819,000 during the
comparable period in 1995 as the Company's major corrosion protection customers
increased purchases of these systems.

     Gross profit fell $346,000 to $4,415,000 during the first six months of
1996 from $4,761,000 during the first two quarters of 1995, mainly due to a
revenue decline in UST testing services, but partially offset by a revenue
increase in cathodic protection services. Additionally, inventory write downs
totalling $420,000 were recorded during the first half of 1995 reflecting the
Company's decision to abandon certain leak detection techniques. No such write
downs were recorded during the first half of 1996.

     Selling, general and administrative expenses declined $335,000 to
$5,014,000 during the first two quarters of 1996 from $5,349,000 during the
first half of 1995, chiefly due to expense reductions made in the UST testing
services area. Other income and expense, consisting mainly of interest earned on
the Company's investments, and gains and losses on the disposition of fixed
assets grew from $393,000 during the first six months of 1995 to $482,000 during
the comparable 1996 period, principally due to an increase in the amount
invested during 1996 compared to 1995.

     During the six months ended June 30, 1996, the Company recorded a net loss
from continuing operations of $121,000 (1% of revenues) compared to a net loss
of $72,000 (0.6% of revenues) for the six months ended June 30, 1995. After
consideration of losses totalling $5,305,000 from the discontinued operations of
Mankoff and Engineered Systems, the Company recorded a net loss of $5,377,000
during the first six months of 1995. The Company reported no income or loss from
discontinued operations during the first half of 1996, as estimated losses
through the expected date of sale were previously accrued.

Seasonality

     The Company experiences certain seasonal fluctuations in its business.
Management believes that revenues are weakest in the first fiscal quarter and
improve in the second and third quarters, with the peak demand occurring during
the fall. Management believes this seasonality is due in part to the yearly
phase-in of EPA regulations, which require compliance by December 22 of each
year, cold weather conditions during the early months of the year, which inhibit
construction activities, and to the internal capital budgeting procedures of the
Company's major customers, which entail lower levels of expenditures for
environmental services by such customers in the first quarter of each year and
higher levels of expenditures during subsequent quarters.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

     At June 30, 1996, the Company had cash, cash equivalents and short-term
investments of $18,185,000. Additionally, the Company has a $10 million
unsecured revolving credit facility with a bank. The Company is required to
maintain certain financial covenants regarding net worth and debt to cash flow.
No borrowings were outstanding under such bank credit facility at June 30, 1996,
or subsequently. The amounts available under the credit facility are reduced by
amounts outstanding under letters of credit issued on behalf of the Company by
the same bank. At June 30, 1996, $106,000 was issued under letter of credit
agreements. The credit facility matured in July 1996. The Company has made
arrangements to extend this credit agreement through September 1996 and is
currently evaluating its options for a longer term line of credit commitment.

                                       10


<PAGE>



     For the six months ended June 30, 1996, net cash flow from operations
totaled $948,000 versus $3,304,000 during the same period in 1995. The decline
in cash flow resulted principally from a decrease in earnings from continuing
operations before interest, taxes, and depreciation of approximately $400,000 
and a large reduction of accounts receivable in 1995 that increased cash flow 
for that period.  The decline in prior year accounts receivable is due to a 
decrease in revenues from continuing operations to $6,949,000 during the second 
quarter of 1995 from $8,240,000 during the fourth quarter of 1994.

     Capital expenditures for the first half of 1996 totaled $1,548,000,
compared to $693,000 during the first half of the prior year. Expenditures in
both periods are mainly for the construction of a new facility that will expand
the Company's wastewater treatment capacity at its ERRI subsidiary.

     Capital expenditures for the next year are expected to be approximately
$1,000,000, primarily for the purchase and construction of machinery and the
expansion of the Company's wastewater treatment capacity at ERRI. Possible
additional expenditures to buy back the Company's Common Stock and to acquire
new service technologies are not expected to exceed $10 million during the next
year. The Company expects to be able to finance its working capital requirements
and future acquisitions during the next 12 months through its cash flow from
operations, cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments and bank credit
facility.

Factors That May Affect Future Results

     EPA regulations require that owners and operators of USTs must conduct leak
detection testing through one of the following three methods: (i) monthly
release detection, (ii) monthly inventory control and annual tank tightness
testing (with this alternative only being available until December 1998), or
(iii) monthly inventory control and tank tightness testing once every five years
(with this alternative only being available for USTs that have been upgraded
with corrosion protection and spill and overfill prevention equipment and then
only until 10 years after such upgrade or until December 1998, whichever is
later).

     By December 22, 1998, owners and operators of all USTs (other than upgraded
USTs that have been installed after December 22, 1988) must monitor tanks at
least once every 30 days to detect leaks.

     During the first half of 1996, the Company derived 79.4% of total revenues
from UST testing services. Approximately 79.0% of such testing service revenue
resulted from tank tightness testing utilizing the Company's patented VacuTect
process. The VacuTect process is principally used as a form of annual tank
tightness testing.

     The Company continues to experience a decline in demand for annual tank
testing using its VacuTect process as a result of an apparent change in the
method of compliance with EPA regulations to monthly monitoring of tanks rather
than annual tightness testing by some owners and operators of USTs. The Company
expects that such revenues will continue to decline from year to year as the
industry approaches the December 22, 1998 date.

     The Company has retained the  investment  banking firm of Raymond James and
Associates, Inc. to evaluate strategic and financial alternatives for maximizing
shareholder value. This may

                                       11


<PAGE>



include, but is not limited to, a sale of part or all of the Company, an
acquisition or merger with another company that may or may not be in a business
complementary to that of the Company, a "going private" transaction in which
current Directors and/or management would acquire the outstanding publicly-held
shares of the Company, or some combination of the above alternatives. The
Company has not necessarily determined to pursue any of the above alternatives
at this time.

Accounting Standards

     Effective January 1, 1996, the Company adopted SFAS No. 121, entitled
"Accounting for the Impairment of Long-lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to
be Disposed of." The effect of this adoption was not material to the Company's
financial position or results of operations.

     The Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 123, entitled
"Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation," in October 1995. Effective January 1,
1996, the Company has elected to adopt the disclosure requirements of SFAS No.
123.

                                OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1.     Legal Proceedings

     The Company is involved in litigation and routine claims from time to time.
Certain of the Company's litigation and claims are covered by insurance with a
maximum deductible of $150,000, or in some cases, $200,000. In Management's
opinion, the total estimated litigation liability and related insurance claims
are not material to the Company's consolidated financial position, results of
operations, or cash flows.

     The Company held its annual meeting of shareholders on April 25, 1996. At
