                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                  (UNAUDITED)
 
(1) SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
     The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Philip
Services Corp. and its subsidiaries (the "Company"). There have been no
significant changes in the accounting policies of the Company during the periods
presented. For a description of these policies, see Note 1 of Notes to the
Company's Consolidated Financial Statements for the fiscal year ended December
31, 1996.
 
     The consolidated financial statements herein have been prepared by the
Company without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities
and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"). As applicable under such regulations,
certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial
statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles
have been condensed or omitted. The Company believes that the presentation and
disclosures herein are adequate to make the information not misleading, and the
financial statements reflect all elimination entries and normal adjustments
which are necessary for a fair statement of the results for the nine and three
months ended September 30, 1997 and September 30, 1996.
 
     The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires the Company to make estimates and
assumptions that affect reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and
expenses and disclosures of contingencies. Actual results could differ from the
Company's estimates.
 
     Certain amounts in previously issued financial statements have been
restated to conform to 1997 classifications.
 
(2) SPECIAL CHARGES (in thousands)
 
     The financial results for the three months and the nine months ended
September 30, 1997 and 1996 have been restated to give effect to the following:
 
     The Company has recorded a pre-tax charge for the three months and the nine
months ended September 30, 1997 of $462 and $26,813, respectively, as a result
of inventory costing errors, which occurred in the copper division of the Metals
Services Group and which resulted in an overstatement of copper inventory for
resale and an understatement of operating expenses.
 
     In January 1998, the Company discovered previously incurred but unrecorded
trading losses resulting from speculative trading of copper cathode outside of
the Company's normal business practices. The trading took place within the
copper division of the Company's Metals Services Group over a three year period
ended December 31, 1997. The losses from the trading were deferred principally
through unrecorded liabilities and to a lesser extent were also improperly
recorded through various balance sheet accounts. The effect on the December 31,
1996 balance sheet of these trading losses which amounted to $92,235 was an
understatement of current assets of $22,700 and an understatement of current
liabilities of $69,535. During 1997, the previously unrecorded amounts were
improperly capitalized into the inventory accounts. The effect on the September
30, 1997 balance sheet for the trading losses was an overstatement of inventory
of $78,770 and an understatement of current liabilities of $17,678. As a result
of the trading losses, the Company has restated its statements of earnings for
the three months and the nine months ended September 30, 1997 and 1996 to record
as special charges the previously unrecorded trading losses of $8,779, $4,213,
$7,949 and $24,401, respectively.
 
     At the end of the second quarter of 1997, the Company monetized
approximately $27,300 of its copper inventory. Concurrent with this transaction,
the Company entered into an agreement to process this inventory over a period of
future months and also entered into certain copper swap contracts. In the third
quarter of

           NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED)
                                  (UNAUDITED)
 
1997, the Company incurred unrealized pre-tax losses as a result of these copper
swap contracts, totalling $4,900 which have been recorded in operating expenses.
 
     The Company has restated its December 31, 1996 financial statements to
reflect the recording of revenue in the appropriate periods. The total
adjustment at December 31, 1996 was $22,114 which resulted in an overstatement
of revenue and an overstatement of accounts receivable. The effect on the
financial statements for the three months and the nine months ended September
30, 1997 of this error was an increase in revenue and a decrease in current
liabilities of $4,628.
 
     The following table summarizes the restatement adjustments recorded by the
Company:

(4) DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS (in thousands)
 
     In August 1996, the Company sold its municipal and commercial solid waste
business (the "Solid Waste Business") for a total consideration of $115,000 to
USA Waste Services Inc. ("USA Waste"). The consideration included $60,000 in
cash, $38,000 in unrestricted common shares of USA Waste, and $17,000 in
restricted common shares of USA Waste (in total, representing less than 2% of
USA Waste's voting stock). The unrestricted common shares of USA Waste were sold
in September 1996 for $39,508, resulting in a gain before tax of $1,508 which is
included in Other income and expense -- net in the Consolidated Statements of
Earnings. The restriction on the $17,000 common shares of USA Waste was removed
in January 1997 and in February 1997, the Company sold these shares for $19,800,
resulting in a further gain before tax of $2,800. Revenue of the Solid Waste
Business, net of intercompany revenue, was $28,656 and $59,028 for the three and
nine months ended September 30, 1996, respectively.

(a) In August 1997, the Company signed a US $1.5 billion revolving credit
     agreement with a syndicate of international lenders which replaced the 1996
     revolving term loan agreement and refinanced certain other long-term debt.
     The new credit agreement expires in August of 2002, and contains certain
     restrictive covenants and financial covenants including the following:
 
     -  the Company must meet interest ratio coverage tests as well as total
       debt and fixed charge ratio coverage tests
 
     -  certain acquisitions by the Company must be reviewed by the lenders
       prior to completion
 
     At September 30, 1997 the Company is in compliance with all of the
covenants of the credit agreement.

(10) CONTINGENCIES (in thousands)
 
(a) Certain operating subsidiaries acquired by the Company have been named as a
    potentially responsible or liable party in respect of several US federal or
    state superfund sites. These proceedings are principally based on
    allegations that the subsidiaries (or their predecessors) disposed of
    hazardous substances at the sites in question. Based on its review of these
    claims, the Company has estimated its share of the cost to remediate these
    sites and has accrued $2,540 as at September 30, 1997 (December 31, 1996 --
    $419) to cover these costs.
 
(b) Certain of the Company's subsidiaries' facilities are contaminated as a
    result of operating practices at the sites prior to their acquisition by the
    Company. Investigations of these sites have substantially characterized the
    nature and extent of the contamination.
 
     The Company estimates the remaining liability to remediate these sites to
     be $34,335 and has accrued this amount in its September 30, 1997 financial
     statements (December 31, 1996 -- $19,455).
 
(c) The Company is named as a defendant in several lawsuits which have arisen in
    the ordinary course of its business. Management believes that none of these
    suits is likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company's business
    or financial condition and therefore has made no provision in these
    financial statements for the potential liability if any.

             PART I, ITEM 2 -- MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
                OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
 
     The following discussion reviews the Company's operations for the three
months ended and nine months ended September 30, 1997 and 1996 and should be
read in conjunction with the Company's condensed Consolidated Financial
Statements and related notes thereto included elsewhere herein, as well as the
Company's Consolidated Financial Statements and related notes thereto included
in the Company's Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 1997. The
Company's quarterly reporting during 1997 is in U.S. dollars and in accordance
with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
 
INTRODUCTION
 
     The Company is a supplier of resource recovery and industrial services. The
Company has over 300 operating facilities and over 12,000 employees located
throughout the United States, Canada and Europe, that provide services to
approximately 50,000 industrial and commercial customers. The Company has
achieved its position in the metals recovery and industrial services markets
through internal growth and through the acquisition and integration of over 30
companies since the beginning of 1996. As a result, the Company is viewed as a
leading consolidator in the metals recovery and industrial services industries.
The Company's primary base of operations is in the United States with
approximately 70% of the Company's consolidated revenue generated in U.S.
dollars in the nine months ended September 30, 1997.
 
     The Company's business is organized into two operating divisions -- the
Metals Recovery Group and the Industrial Services Group. The Metals Recovery
Group processes or recycles ferrous (steel), copper and aluminum materials. The
ferrous operations include the collection and processing of ferrous scrap
materials for shipment to steel mills, and brokerage services. The Company also
processes and distributes structural steel products. Copper operations include
processing of wire and cable scrap to recover copper, aluminum and plastics,
refining of second grade copper into prime ingot, and on-site management of
materials recycling centers for the telecommunications industry. Aluminum
operations process aluminum dross into aluminum ingots, and produce aluminum
deoxidizing products and alloys from aluminum scrap for reuse in the steel and
automotive industries respectively. Both the ferrous and non-ferrous operations
of Philip provide significant brokerage capabilities for scrap materials and
primary metals including steel, copper, and aluminum. The Metals Recovery Group
services the steel, telecommunications, aluminum, wire and cable and automotive
industry sectors.
 
     The Industrial Services Group provides industrial outsourcing services,
by-products recovery and environmental services through a network of over 250
facilities. The Industrial Services Group is divided into four main activities:
on-site industrial services, by-products recovery, environmental services and
utilities management. On-site industrial services include industrial cleaning
and maintenance, waste collection and transportation, container services and
tank cleaning, turnaround and outage services, mechanical contracting and
refractory services. By-products recovery includes distillation, fuel blending,
paint overspray recovery, organic and inorganic processing and polyurethane
recycling. Environmental services range from decommissioning and remediation to
emergency response and analytical services. Utilities management services
include industrial and municipal water and wastewater treatment plants, power
plants and related infrastructure. The Industrial Services Group services the
automotive, chemical, food, beverage, oil and gas, paint and coatings,
petrochemical and pulp and paper industry sectors.
 
     The Company's operating expenses include direct and indirect labour and the
related taxes and benefits, fuel, maintenance and repairs of equipment and
facilities, depreciation, property taxes, and accrual for future closure costs.
Selling, general and administrative expenses include management salaries,
clerical and administrative costs, professional services, facility rentals and
insurance costs, as well as costs related to the Company's marketing and sales
force.

EARNINGS FROM CONTINUING OPERATIONS
 
     For the three months ended September 30, 1997, the Company had earnings
from continuing operations of $19.5 million or $0.21 per share on a fully
diluted basis. This compares to $7.5 million of earnings from continuing
operations and $0.14 fully diluted earnings per share from continuing operations
for the three months ended September 30, 1996.
 
     For the first nine months of 1997, net earnings from continuing operations
were $33.3 million or $0.43 per share on a fully diluted basis. For the first
nine months of 1996, net earnings from continuing operations were $3.9 million
or $0.09 per share on a fully diluted basis.
 
REVENUE
 
     Consolidated revenue for the three months ended and nine months ended
September 30, 1997 compared with the same periods in 1996 is shown in the table
which follows:

</TABLE>
 
     The 196% increase in consolidated revenue for the first nine months ended
September 30, 1997 was attributable to internal growth of approximately $63
million and approximately $685 million from acquisitions.
 
     In the Metals Recovery Group, the increase in revenue for the first nine
months of 1997 compared to the same period for 1996 is as a result of both
internal growth and acquisitions. The Metals Recovery Group acquired seven new
businesses in the first nine months of 1997 and four new businesses in late 1996
which contributed the majority of the revenue increase. The increase in revenue
for the Industrial Services Group for the nine months ended September 30, 1997
of 94% comes primarily from the acquisitions of Allwaste and Serv-Tech which
were completed on July 31, 1997. These acquisitions contributed 49% of the
revenue increase for the nine months ended September 30, 1997 compared to the
same period in 1996.
 
OPERATING EXPENSES
 
     Operating expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 1997 were $942.0
million, an increase of $652.5 million or 225% over the same period in 1996. The
increase in operating expenses is due mainly to the acquisition of new
businesses in late 1996 and during the first nine months of 1997. As a
percentage of revenues, operating expenses increased from 76% for the first nine
months of 1996 to 83% for the same period of 1997. This increase is the result
of newly acquired businesses in the Metals Recovery Group which generally have
higher operating expenses than Industrial Services Group businesses and the
recording of special and non-recurring charges in operating expenses which are
discussed below.
 
SPECIAL CHARGES (in thousands)
 
     The financial results for the three months and the nine months ended
September 30, 1997 and 1996 have been restated to give effect to the following:
 
     The Company has recorded a pre-tax charge for the three months and the nine
months ended September 30, 1997 of $462 and $26,813, respectively, as a result
of inventory costing errors, which occurred in the copper division of the Metals
Services Group and which resulted in an overstatement of copper inventory for
resale and an understatement of operating expenses.
 
     In January 1998, the Company discovered previously incurred but unrecorded
trading losses resulting from speculative trading of copper cathode outside of
the Company's normal business practices. The trading took place within the
copper division of the Company's Metals Services Group over a three year period
ended
 
                                       14
<PAGE>   15
 
December 31, 1977. The losses from the trading were deferred principally through
unrecorded liabilities and to a lesser extent were also improperly recorded
through various balance sheet accounts. The effect on the December 31, 1996
balance sheet of these trading losses which amounted to $92,235 was an
understatement of current assets of $22,700 and an understatement of current
liabilities of $69,535. During 1997, the previously unrecorded amounts were
improperly capitalized into the inventory accounts. The effect on the September
30, 1997 balance sheet for the trading losses was an overstatement of inventory
of $78,770 and an understatement of current liabilities of $17,678. As a result
of the trading losses, the Company has restated its statements of earnings for
the three months and the nine months ended September 30, 1997 and 1996 to record
as special charges the previously unrecorded trading losses of $8,779, $4,213,
$7,949 and $24,401, respectively.
 
     At the end of the second quarter of 1997, the Company monetized
approximately $27.3 million of its copper inventory. Concurrent with this
transaction, the Company entered into an agreement to process this inventory
over a period of future months and also entered into certain copper swap
contracts. In the third quarter of 1997, the Company incurred unrealized pre-tax
losses as a result of these copper swap contracts, totalling $4.9 million which
have been recorded in operating expenses.
 
     The Company has restated its December 31, 1996 financial statements to
reflect the recording of revenue in the appropriate periods. The total
adjustment at December 31, 1996 was $22,114 which resulted in an overstatement
of revenue and an overstatement of accounts receivable. The effect on the
financial statements for the three months and the nine months ended September
30, 1997 of this error was an increase in revenue and a decrease in current
liabilities of $4,628.
 
SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES
 
     Selling, general and administrative expenses were $81.8 million for the
first nine months of 1997 representing an increase of $43.3 million or 112% over
the same period in 1996. The increase is attributable to the consolidation for
the first time of selling, general and administrative expenses of companies
acquired in late 1996 and during the first nine months of 1997 and to the
addition of selling and corporate staff to manage the increased volume of
business. However, as a percentage of revenue, selling, general and
administrative expenses decreased to 7.2% of consolidated revenue for the first
nine months of 1997 compared to 10.1% in the first nine months of 1996. This is
due to the fact that selling, general and administrative costs associated with
Metals Recovery Group companies acquired, as a percentage of revenue, were lower
than these same costs for Industrial Services Group businesses.
 
DEPRECIATION AND AMORTIZATION
 
     Depreciation and amortization of fixed assets and goodwill in the first
nine months of 1997 was $35.3 million, representing an increase of $18 million
or 103% over the same period in 1996. This increase was due to acquisitions, to
a continued high level of fixed asset additions, and to the full year effect of
acquisitions completed by the Company in the prior year.
 
INTEREST EXPENSE
 
     Interest expense for the first nine months of 1997 was $27.1 million,
representing an increase of $13.3 million or 96% over the same period in 1996.
This increase was primarily attributable to increased borrowings to finance the
Company's growth by acquisition and fixed asset expansion, together with working
capital requirements to support the Company's increased revenue base.
 
OTHER INCOME AND EXPENSE -- NET
 
     Other income and expense -- net for the first nine months of 1997 includes
a $2.8 million gain before tax on the sale of the USA Waste shares received as
part of the proceeds on the sale of the municipal and commercial solid waste
business in 1996. The shares which were restricted at the time of receipt, were
sold by the Company in February 1997 following the removal of the restriction.
 
                                       15
<PAGE>   16
 
INCOME TAXES
 
     The Company's effective income tax rate increased in the nine months ended
September 30, 1997 due to a shift in business to higher income tax rate
jurisdictions. The effective income tax rate was lower than the Canadian
statutory combined federal and provincial rate due to the effect of Philip's
significant business in other jurisdictions where income tax rates are generally
lower than those in Canada.
 
DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS
 
     The loss from discontinued operations of $0.7 million for the nine months
ended September 30, 1996 consists of the net earnings of the Company's municipal
and commercial solid waste business. These operations have been discontinued as
a result of the sale of the Company's municipal and commercial solid waste
business in 1996. Interest expense has been allocated to the municipal and
commercial solid waste business segment based upon the relationship of the net
assets of the solid waste business to the Company's consolidated net assets.
 
FINANCIAL CONDITION
 
LIQUIDITY AND CREDIT FACILITY
 
     At September 30, 1997, the Company's working capital was $428.9 million,
representing an increase of $289.6 million from December 31, 1996. Inventory for
resale is a significant component of the working capital at September 30, 1997
and increased by $59.2 million over December 31, 1996. Of this increase, $65.3
million was added through companies acquired since December 31, 1996 and $4.5
million was added by reason of new plant facilities. In addition, at September
30, 1997, accounts receivable were $258.9 million higher than December 31, 1996,
due in part to accounts receivable acquired as part of new business combinations
amounting to $231 million.
 
     In August 1997, the Company signed a five year term, revolving credit
agreement with a syndicate of international banks which provides up to $1.5
billion in borrowings, subject to compliance with specified availability tests.
The credit agreement is guaranteed by all of the Company's wholly-owned
subsidiaries. At September 30, 1997, the Company had undrawn credit capacity
under this facility of approximately $630 million, net of letters of credit
outstanding, which amounted to $59 million.
 
ACQUISITIONS
 
     During the third quarter of 1997, the Company concluded a number of
acquisitions, the most significant of which were the following:
 
     On July 31, 1997, the shareholders of Allwaste and Serv-Tech voted in
favour of the mergers which were jointly announced by the companies earlier this
year. Under the terms of the respective merger agreements, each share of
Allwaste, Inc. stock was exchanged for 0.611 shares of Philip common stock and
each share of Serv-Tech stock was exchanged for 0.403 shares of Philip common
stock.
 
     In addition to the above acquisitions, the Company has completed 18 other
acquisitions during the nine months ended September 30, 1997.
 
     In October, 1997, subsequent to the end of the third quarter, the Company
announced the acquisition of Luria Brothers, the Steiner Liff Metals group of
companies and the Southern Foundry Supply group of companies. The aggregate
purchase price for Luria, Steiner-Liff and Southern Foundry was $495.9 million
which includes the assumption of $32.6 million in debt. Part of the purchase
price was satisfied by the issuance of 5.6 million Philip common shares.
 
CAPITAL EXPENDITURES
 
     Capital expenditures for continuing operations were $34.8 million for the
first nine months of 1997 compared to $12.6 million for the same period in 1996.
                                       16
<PAGE>   17
 
CAPITAL STRUCTURE
 
     On November 12, 1997, the Company closed its previously announced
transaction to sell 20 million Common Shares at $16.50 per share, with the net
proceeds of $316.8 to be used to repay indebtedness outstanding under the
Company's Credit Facility.
 
     In addition to the equity offering noted, the Company has issued 32.4
million common shares during 1997 for a total consideration of $524.5 million,
and therefore, the share capital of the Company increased from $363.1 at
December 31, 1996 to $887.6 million at September 30, 1997. The common shares
were issued primarily as a result of acquisitions or as the result of the
exercise of employee stock options. The September 30, 1997 shareholders' equity
does not reflect the net proceeds from the equity offering since this
transaction closed on November 12, 1997.
 
RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES
 
     See "Commitments and Contingencies" in the notes to the consolidated
financial statements for description of certain contingent liabilities relating
to the Company and its subsidiaries. There has been no material change in the
status of these contingencies since December 31, 1996.
