                     Management's Discussion and Analysis of
                  Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Results of Operations:

Nine months ended September 30, 1996 compared with the nine months ended
September 30, 1995.

Net Sales for the first nine months of 1996 declined by $829,401 when compared
with the first nine months of 1995. This low level of sales resulted from the
overall lower level of shipments of granulated rubber to the Company's
industrial customers and the lack of shipments for construction of roadways. The
repeal of the U.S. Government mandate for States to use rubber modified asphalt
in road surfacing significantly reduced the demand for the Company's products.
The Company also was faced with strong price competition from new granulated
rubber producers in certain markets.

The Company's revenues in the first nine months of both 1996 and 1995 were
further limited by the lack of recycling fees paid by the State of Texas under
the State's Scrap Tire Recycling Program. The Company has historically
participated in this Program and anticipates doing so in the future. The Company
incurred expenses in the form of depreciation and maintenance on equipment that
is designed to collect and process scrap tire pursuant to this Program with no
related revenues generated.

The Company's cost of sales has been negatively impacted by its limited volume
of activity and the continued reduction of the Company's Tire Derived Fuel
("TDF") inventories at depressed market values. During the first nine months of
1996, the Company operated its granulated rubber manufacturing facility at
approximately thirty (30) percent of its designed capacity. A major portion of
the Company's manufacturing costs are fixed and could not be reduced in direct
proportion to the level of manufacturing required to meet market conditions. If
the Company returns to more acceptable levels of operation, the Company
anticipates that cost of sales will return to a more acceptable ratio to sales.
During the first nine months of 1996, the Company liquidated $305,654 of TDF
inventories, resulting in a direct operating loss, including delivery costs.

The Company's selling and administrative expenses increased from $263,494 in the
first nine months of 1995 to $530,481 in the first nine months of 1996. This
increase may be attributed to an increase in sales and marketing personnel of
$44,000, an increase of $80,000 in professional fees relating to the Company's
auditors and investment bankers, and $146,000 of depreciation on equipment that
was not utilized by the Company during the first nine months of 1996. Similar
expenses were not incurred during the first nine months of 1995.

Three months ended September 30, 1996 compared with the three months ended
September 30, 1995.

Sales for the three months ended September 30, 1996 declined by $173,633 when
compared with the same period of 1995. This low level of sales resulted from the
lack of orders for the Company's granulated rubber, primarily for use in highway
construction and

                                   (continued)

maintenance. The Company continued to be faced with strong price competition
from competitors in this market segment during this period.

The Company's cost of sales during this period continued to be negatively
impacted by the limited volume of activity in the granulated rubber markets and
by the continued reduction of tire derived fuel inventories at depressed market
values. Please refer to comments above concerning fixed costs and the Texas
Scrap Tire Program.

The Company's administrative and selling expenses increased by $42,267 during
the three months ended September 30, 1996 when compared with the same period, of
1995. This increase may be attributed to an increase of $30,000 in professional
fees relating to the Company's auditors and investment bankers and $16,000 in
depreciation on equipment that was not utilized by the Company during the
period.

Liquidity and Financial Condition:

The Company's ratio of current assets to current liabilities was 1.1 to 1.0 at
September 30, 1996 compared with 2.6 to 1.0 at December 31, 1995 and 2.6 to 1.0
at September 30, 1995. The Company's assets exceeded its total liabilities by
$3,248,883 at September 30, 1996.

Inventories decreased by $365,000 during the first nine months of 1996. As of
September 30, 1996, the Company had $670,000 of finished goods inventory ready
to meet customer's requirements. This compares with a finished goods inventory
of $678,000 at September 30, 1995.

The Company's ratio of total liabilities to shareholders' equity was .52 to 1.0
at September 30, 1996 compared to .3 to 1.0 at December 31, 1995.

Agreement to Acquire a Tire Process Site

The Company has entered into a lease purchase agreement to acquire a
twenty-seven acre scrap tire processing site approximately twenty miles South of
Dallas, Texas. The site contains approximately 25,000 tons of shredded tire
material that will allow the Company to continue servicing its TDF customer,
while the Company files applications with the State of Texas to begin shredding
tires at the site. The Company anticipates that the site will become operational
in December, 1996.
