                     NOTES TO UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.    Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited financial statements of Planet Polymer Technologies,
Inc. (the "Company" or "Planet") have been prepared in accordance with the
interim reporting requirements of Form 10-QSB, pursuant to the rules and
regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. 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 (consisting of only normal
recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been
included. Operating results for the three month period ended March 31, 1997 are
not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the year ending
December 31, 1997. For additional information, refer to the Company's financial
statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 1996 contained in
the Company's Form 10-KSB for the fiscal year ended December 31, 1996.


2.    Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued
Statement Accounting Standards No. 128 "Earnings per Share" ("SFAS No. 128").
SFAS No. 128 requires dual presentation of newly defined basic and diluted
earnings per share on the face of the income statement for all entities with
complex capital structures. The accounting standard is effective for fiscal
years ending after December 15, 1997, including interim periods. The Company
does not believe that the adoption of SFAS No. 128 will have a material impact
on the computation of its earnings per share in future periods.

                       CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

                        PLANET POLYMER TECHNOLOGIES, INC.


Except for the historical information contained herein, the discussions in this
report contain forward looking statements that involve certain risks and
uncertainties. The Company's actual results could differ materially from those
discussed in this report. Factors that could cause or contribute to such
differences include, but are not limited to, the development of new products,
market acceptance of new products, general economic conditions and the
availability of additional financing, as well as those discussed in the
Company's Form 10-KSB for the fiscal year ended December 31, 1996 in "Item 1 -
Description of Business," including the section therein entitled "Risk Factors,"
and "Item 6 - Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations."

Overview

Planet Polymer Technologies, Inc. (the "Company" or "Planet") emerged from the
development stage as a result of its acquisition of Deltco of Wisconsin, Inc., a
Wisconsin corporation ("Deltco"), effective January 1, 1996. Prior to this
acquisition, substantially all of the Company's resources had been devoted to
the development and commercialization of its seven Enviroplastic technologies
and products.

Deltco is a manufacturer and reprocessor of thermoplastic scrap resins located
in Ashland, Wisconsin. The Company maintains Deltco as a wholly owned
subsidiary, and uses its plant, equipment and other physical property in the
manner in which it was used prior to the acquisition. The Company plans to
leverage its Enviroplastic technologies and sales and marketing expertise with
Deltco's manufacturing experience.

Research and development and marketing expenses are expected to increase
significantly in the future as the Company's products are commercialized and
continued efforts are focused on Deltco's resins. General and administrative
expenses are not expected to increase significantly in the next three months.

Planet has incurred operating losses since inception and had an accumulated
deficit at March 31, 1997 of approximately $7.5 million. The Company expects to
incur additional losses for the foreseeable future.

Results of Operations

Three months ended March 31, 1997 and 1996

The Company's revenues increased from approximately $695,000 during the three
months ended March 31, 1996 to approximately $891,000 during the three months
ended March 31, 1997. This increase primarily reflects increased sales volume at
Deltco. The Company continued to focus on internally-funded, rather than
customer-funded product development during the three months ended March 31,
1997. The Company will continue to participate in customer-funded development
when appropriate, but believes internally-funded development is advantageous as
to certain technologies and applications.

           ITEM 2 - MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
                CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - (CONTINUED)

                        PLANET POLYMER TECHNOLOGIES, INC.


Results of Operations, Continued

General and administrative expenses decreased from approximately $932,000 during
the three months ended March 31, 1996 to approximately $278,000 for the three
months ended March 31, 1997. This decrease was primarily attributable to a
$592,000 one time, non-cash compensation expense for the fair market value of
options granted to an outside consultant during the three months ended March 31,
1996. These options values were later revised downward by approximately $114,000
during the three months ended June 30, 1996. In addition, during the three
months ended March 31, 1996 the Company incurred certain costs associated with
the acquisition of Deltco. The costs of outside services and the costs of
general and administrative staff decreased during the three months ended March
31, 1997.

Marketing expenses decreased from approximately $328,000 during the three months
ended March 31, 1996 to approximately $186,000 for the three months ended March
31, 1997. This decrease was primarily due to a reduction in sales and marketing
personnel, the reduction of outside services and the reduction in international
travel expenditures while increasing marketing efforts in North America.

Research and development expenses decreased from approximately $215,000 during
the three months ended March 31, 1996 to approximately $125,000 for the three
months ended March 31, 1997. This decrease was due primarily to the decreased
use of outside resin processors and a reduction in technical operations staff
offset by the addition of a scientist.

Research and development expenses are expected to increase significantly in the
future as the Company's products are commercialized and continued efforts are
focused on Deltco's resins. The Company is actively seeking to reduce costs such
that general and administrative and marketing expenses are not expected to
increase in the next three months.


Liquidity and Capital Resources

Since its inception, Planet has financed its operations primarily through the
sale of equity securities and revenue from customer development agreements. The
Company has raised approximately $4 million (net of issuance costs) from the
private sale of Common Stock. In September 1995 the Company completed its
initial public offering in which it sold an aggregate of 1,150,000 shares of
Common Stock and received net proceeds of approximately $5.6 million. In January
1996, the Company used $1,125,000 in cash and issued 96,775 shares of restricted
Common Stock valued at approximately $508,000 to acquire Deltco in a purchase
transaction. In connection with the purchase, the Company now has one
outstanding debt agreement related to a Small Business Administration loan
collateralized by Deltco. As of March 31, 1997 the loan balance was
approximately $244,000. The Company has no material commitments for capital
expenditures.

The Company used approximately $356,000 for operations for the three months
ended March 31, 1997. Such funds were used for research and development
activities, marketing efforts and administrative support.

The Company used approximately $26,000 for the repayment of debt for the three
months ended March 31, 1997.

           ITEM 2 - MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
                CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - (CONTINUED)

                        PLANET POLYMER TECHNOLOGIES, INC.


The Company believes that its existing sources of liquidity and anticipated
revenue, including revenues generated from Deltco, will satisfy the Company's
projected working capital and other cash requirements through at least
September, 1997. There can be no assurance, however, that changes in the
Company's plans or other events affecting the Company's operating expenses will
not result in the expenditure of such resources before such time. The Company
expects that it will need to raise substantial additional funds to establish
large-scale manufacturing capabilities. The Company intends to seek additional
funding from existing and potential customers or through public or private
equity or debt financing. There can be no assurance that additional financing
will be available on acceptable terms, or at all.
