H:\N-P\PESI\10k\1999\12b25.wpd ATTACHMENT "A" It is anticipated that the Registrant will report a net income from continuing operations for the year ended December 31, 1999, of approximately $1,570,000. After giving effect to the recognition by the Registrant of approximately $308,000 for preferred stock dividends in 1999, it is anticipated that the Registrant will report for the year ended December 31, 1999, net income of approximately $1,450,000 (or approximately $.08 per share), which includes the recording of net income of approximately $188,000 during the third quarter of 1999 resulting from the Registrant's redemption of certain preferred stock in such quarter. In comparison, the Registrant's net loss for the year ended December 31, 1998, was approximately $698,000,(or approximately $.06 per share), which included preferred stock dividends of approximately $1,160,000 which were recorded for 1998. The Registrant believes the changed results may be attributed, among other things, to (i) reduced payments of preferred stock dividends, (ii) increased revenue from the Registrant's operations, including the Registrant's recently acquired subsidiaries, Chemical Conservation Corporation, Chemical Conservation of Georgia, Inc., and Chem-Met Services, Inc., which acquisitions are reported in the Registrant's Current Report on Form 8-K, dated June 1, 1999, (iii) reduced operating costs, and (iv) improved margins.
