3CI COMPLETE COMPLIANCE CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JUNE 30, 1998
(UNAUDITED)
(1) ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
3CI Complete Compliance Corporation (the Company or 3CI), a Delaware
Corporation, is engaged in the collection, transportation and incineration of
biomedical waste in the southeastern, south central and portions of the
southwestern United States. In February 1994, subsidiaries of 3CI acquired all
the assets and business operations of American Medical Transports Corporation
(AMTC), an Oklahoma corporation, and A/MED, Inc. (A/MED), a Delaware
corporation. Both AMTC and A/MED were engaged in businesses similar to that of
3CI. Waste Systems, Inc. (WSI), a Delaware corporation, was the majority
shareholder of both AMTC and A/MED (the Companies). Additionally, in February
1994, WSI purchased 1,255,182 shares of 3CI common stock from American Medical
Technologies (AMOT).
As a result of the transactions described above, WSI became the majority
shareholder of 3CI immediately following the acquisition of AMTC and A/MED. For
accounting purposes, AMTC and A/MED were considered the acquirer in a reverse
acquisition. The combined financial statements of AMTC and A/MED are the
historical financial statements of the Company for periods prior to the date of
the business acquisition. Historical combined shareholders' equity of AMTC and
A/MED has been retroactively restated for the equivalent number of 3CI shares
received for the assets and business operations of AMTC and A/MED, and the
combined accumulated deficit of AMTC and A/MED has been carried forward.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared, without
audit, by the Company pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities
and Exchange Commission. 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 adjustments and are of a normal recurring nature which
are necessary for a fair presentation of these financial statements. These
financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements
and notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the
year ended September 30, 1997, as filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission.
(2) NET INCOME (LOSS) PER COMMON SHARE
In 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement 128, Earnings
per Share. Statement 128 replaced the calculation of primary and fully diluted
earnings per share with basic and diluted earnings per share. Unlike primary
earnings per share, basic earnings per share excludes any dilutive effects of
options, warrants and convertible securities. Diluted earnings per share, basic
earnings per share is very similar to the previously reported fully diluted
earnings per share. For the nine months ended June 30, 1998 and 1997, the
effects of dilutive potential common shares are not considered in calculating
earnings per share because their effects would be anti-dilutive to the net loss
reported for these time periods. All earnings per share for all periods
presented have been presented to conform to Statement 128 requirements.
6
7
Basic income (loss) per common share has been computed by dividing net income
(loss) for each weighted common shares outstanding for each period presented. In
October 1994, the Company acquired substantially all the assets and assumed
certain liabilities of River Bay Corporation. As part of the River Bay
acquisition the Company issued 865,500 common shares with River Bay Corporation
having the option to put the shares back to the Company. As of June 30, 1998,
565,500 shares remain outstanding in connection with the acquisition and have
been excluded from weighted average shares outstanding.
(3) BUSINESS CONDITIONS
The Company has historically funded its operations, acquisitions and debt
service through cash advances from its majority shareholder WSI. As a result of
the Company's prior expansion and program of acquisitions, the Company has
experienced liquidity deficiencies.
In October 1994, WSI made a non-interest bearing cash advance of $1,000,000 to
the Company, which was converted into 416,667 shares of Common Stock in April
1995. In the first half of 1995, WSI made non-interest bearing cash advances
totaling $4,100,000 to the Company. In June 1995, the Company executed a
$6,000,000 revolving promissory note, which was utilized in part to repay the
advances. This note was renegotiated in September 1995 (the "1995 Note"),
increasing the total available to $8,000,000 including interest, with the
principal not to exceed $7,400,000. The 1995 Note bears interest at the prime
rate and provides for the payment of interest in quarterly installments which is
automatically added to the outstanding principal balance, if not paid. The 1995
Note was due and payable on December 31, 1996, but to date, the Company has
requested and received monthly extensions of the maturity date. The 1995 Note is
presently due and payable in full on June 30, 1998. As of September 30, 1997,
1996, and 1995, the Company had borrowed $4,844,217, $8,843,000 and $4,100,000
respectively under the 1995 Note. During February 1998, the Company and WSI
converted an additional $750,000 of debt under the 1995 Note, into Series C
preferred stock.
During fiscal year 1996, the Company received cash advances from WSI in excess
of the 1995 Note. As a result, in December 1996, the Company entered into a
Revolving Credit Facility of $2.7 million including deferred interest (the "1996
Credit Facility"), with a maturity date of February 28, 1997. The maturity date
was subsequently extended to June 30, 1997. In February 1997, the Company
received a letter from the NASDAQ Stock Market, Inc. ("NASDAQ") regarding the
Company's failure to meet listing requirements. These requirements included
maintaining a minimum capital and surplus of at least $1,000,000 and a minimum
bid price of $1.00. The NASDAQ agreed to allow the Company to remain listed,
with an exception added to its trading symbol, until June 25, 1997, at which
time the Company would be required to meet the listing requirement. In June
1997, WSI converted $7,000,000 of debt into 1,000,000 shares of 3CI preferred
stock and canceled the 1996 Credit Facility. This conversion allowed the Company
to meet the listing requirement of the NASDAQ. On June 26, 1997, the NASDAQ
confirmed that the Company was in compliance with all requirements necessary for
continued listing on the exchange and the exception to its trading symbol was
removed. The conversion also resulted in the reduction of the outstanding
indebtedness of the 1995 Note.
During the fiscal years ended September 30, 1997, 1996 and 1995 WSI has made
cash advances to the Company of $2,303,000, $4,000,000 and $4,100,000. During
fiscal year 1998, the Company received a cash advance from WSI in the amount of
$500,000. This advance was utilized for settlement costs and expenses incurred
in the Rash litigation. WSI is under no obligation to provide additional
advances under the 1995 Note and could demand payment of all outstanding
indebtedness under the 1995 Note at any time after September 30, 1998. During
fiscal year 1997 and continuing into fiscal 1998, the Company has
7
8
continued to have discussions with third party lenders to obtain an alternative
source of financing apart from WSI. In the event the Company and WSI do not come
to a resolution on the restructuring of the 1995 Note and the Company is unable
to obtain alternative financing, there can be no assurance that the Company will
be able to meet its obligations as they become due or realize the recorded value
of its assets.
During February 1998, the Company and WSI converted an additional $750,000 of
debt under the 1995 Note, into Series C preferred stock. Also, during March
1998, the Company exchanged 1,000,000 shares of Series A preferred stock for
7,000,000 shares of Series B preferred stock.
During fiscal 1998, the Company repaid approximately $663,522 of its notes
payable and approximately $1,091,676 of its long-term debt that became due.
During the first quarter of the fiscal year 1998, the Board of Directors of the
Company authorized the repurchase of up to 150,000 shares of 3CI common stock
from time to time in the open market. Since the authorization by the board of
Directors, the Company has repurchased 20,500 shares at cost of $32,105 as of
June 30, 1998, and an additional 2,000 shares for $3,322 as of August 11, 1998.
The nature and level of competition in the medical waste industry has remained
high for several years. This condition has produced aggressive price competition
and results in pressures on profit margins. The Company competes against
companies which have access to greater capital resources. In order to
effectively compete in the industry on a long-term basis and fully realize its
business strategy, the Company will require additional and continued financing
and other assistance from its current majority shareholder and if available,
from outside sources. There is no assurance that adequate funds for these
purposes will be available when needed or, if available, on terms acceptable to
the Company.
(4) COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
James T. Rash, et al. v. Waste Systems, Inc. et al. In May 1995, a group of
minority stockholders of the Company, including Patrick Grafton, former Chief
Executive Officer of the Company, acting individually and purportedly on behalf
of all minority stockholders, and on behalf of the Company, filed suit against
the Company, WSI and various Directors of the Company in the federal District
Court of Harris County, Texas. The plaintiffs alleged minority stockholder
oppression, breach of fiduciary duty and breach of contract and "thwarting of
reasonable expectations" and demanded an accounting, appointment of a receiver
for the sale of the Company, unspecified actual damages and punitive damages of
$10 million, plus attorney's fees. In addition, Mr. Grafton alleged unspecified
damages as a result of his removal as an officer and director of the Company and
the Company's failure to renew his employment agreement in March 1995 and
alleged that such removal was wrongful and ineffective. The Company's insurer
has denied coverage in the lawsuit. The Company denied all material allegations
of the lawsuit. The Company and Mr. Grafton reached a settlement of Mr.
Grafton's individual claims relating to his removal as an officer and Director
of the Company. The terms of the settlement reached between the Company and Mr.
Grafton are confidential to both parties. The Company also entered into a
settlement agreement with the plaintiffs to settle this action, which has been
approved by the court. Pursuant to the settlement, the Company has agreed to (i)
issue 78,014 shares of Common Stock to the plaintiffs, (ii) issue Warrants for
1,002,964 shares of Common Stock to the plaintiffs on the basis one Warrant for
every three shares of common stock owned and (iii) paid $425,000 into escrow for
payment of plaintiff's attorneys' fees.

River Bay. As previously reported, on or about March 10, 1997, the Company
commenced arbitration proceedings before the American Arbitration Association in
Houston, Texas, against River Bay Corporation and Marlan Baucum. The Company was
seeking damages and/or to set aside the Purchase Agreement (the "Purchase
Agreement") and ancillary agreements, including a Put Option Agreement (the "Put
Option Agreement") entered into in connection with the acquisition of the River
Bay Assets. If otherwise enforceable, the Put Option Agreement would have
required the payment by the Company of approximately $1,700,000 for 565,500
shares of 3CI common stock.
In response, on April 9, 1997, Bank of Raleigh and Smith County Bank, assignees
of certain rights under the Purchase Agreement, commenced a complaint for a
declaratory and monetary relief in the U.S. District Court for the Southern
District of Mississippi, Jackson, Division in Civil Action No. 3:97cv249BN. The
Bank of Raleigh and Smith County Bank prayed declaratory judgment declaring the
arbitration provision in the Purchase Agreement to be not binding upon the said
banks, declaratory judgment declaring the claims of 3CI against River Bay to be
subordinate to the claims of the banks, unspecified compensatory damages and for
punitive damages for least $1,000,000. The District Court stayed this action as
well, pending arbitration. In this action the Bank of Raleigh and Smith County
Bank proceeded to collect the Company's accounts receivable in the River Bay
division as it was used as collateral in the Purchase Agreement, they collected
approximately $463,000, through October 14, 1997. On or about May 10, 1997, the
Company filed a Petition of Arbitration in Suit No. 422,107 of the First
Judicial District Court, Caddo Parish, Louisiana, naming River Bay and Marlan
Baucum as defendants therein. This lawsuit sought an injunction and stay of all
judicial and extra-judicial proceedings pursuant to the Put Option Agreement
until such time as the arbitration was completed. This action was removed by the
defendants to the U.S. District Court for the Western district of Louisiana,
Shreveport division in Civil Action No. 97-0578. The parties agreed to settle
the suit in consideration for the Company to repurchase the remaining 565,500
shares of Common Stock related to the Put Option Agreement for $816,364. The
outcome of this lawsuit did not have a material adverse effect on the Company's
financial position, results of operations and net cash flows.
The Company is subject to certain other litigation and claims arising in the
ordinary course of business. In the opinion of management of the Company, the
amounts ultimately payable, if any, as a result of such claims and assessments
will not have a materially adverse effect on the Company's financial position,
result of operations or net cash flows except where noted above.

THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1998 COMPARED TO THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1997:
REVENUES:
Revenues for the three month period ended June 30, 1998, increased by $4,715,964
from revenues for the three month period ended June 30, 1997 of $4,668,898. The
increase in revenue of 1.1% is primarily due to an increase in the Companys
direct collection revenue.
COSTS OF SERVICES:
Cost of services decreased by $95,760, or 2.6%, to $3,535,882 for the three
months ended June 30, 1998, as compared to $3,631,642 for the three month period
ended June 30, 1997. The decrease in costs of services resulted from the
continued cost reductions achieved from lower transportation costs
and the reduction of operating costs at the Company's treatment facilities.
SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES ("SG&A"):
Selling, General and Administrative expense for the three month period ended
June 30, 1998, decreased to $610,133 compared to $625,131 for the three month
period ended June 30, 1997. As a percentage of revenue, the expense for the 1998
period decreased to 12.9% compared to 13.4% for the 1997 period. The decrease
was primarily due to the reduction in the bad debt reserve and labor related
costs.
DEPRECIATION AND AMORTIZATION EXPENSE for the three months ended June 30, 1998
increased to $326,249 compared to $323,816 for the months ended June 30, 1997.
INTEREST EXPENSE decreased to $158,557 for the quarter ended June 30, 1998 from
$241,061 for the three months ended June 30, 1997. This decrease is a result of
WSI converting $7,750,000 of outstanding indebtedness owed by the Company to WSI
into preferred stock of the Company.
NINE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1998 COMPARED TO SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1997:
REVENUES:
Revenues for the six month period ended June 30, 1998, increased by $14,127,077
from revenues for the nine month period ended June 30, 1997 of $13,978,170. The
increase in revenue of 1.1% is primarily due to an increase in the Companys
direct collection revenue.
COSTS OF SERVICES:
Cost of services decreased by $10,474,755 for the nine months ended June 30,
1998, compared to $10,799,750 for the nine month period ended June 30, 1997. The
decrease in cost of services resulted
10
11
from lower transportation costs and the reduction of operating costs at the
Company's treatment facilities.
SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES ("SG&A"):
Selling, General and Administrative expense for the nine month period ended June
30, 1998 decreased to $2,151,511 compared to $2,221,290 for the nine month
period ended June 30, 1997. As a percentage of revenue, expenses for the 1998
period decreased to 15.2% compared to 16.4% for the 1997 period. The decrease
was due primarily to the reduction in legal fees, bad debt reserves and labor
related costs.
DEPRECIATION AND AMORTIZATION EXPENSE for the nine months ended June 30, 1998
decreased to $929,651 compared to $1,021,961.
INTEREST EXPENSE decreased to $459,848 for the nine months month ended June 30,
1998 from $749,473 for the six months ended March 31, 1997. This decrease is a
result of WSI converting $7,750,000 of outstanding indebtedness owed by the
Company to WSI into preferred stock of the Company.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
OPERATING ACTIVITIES:
While the Company's cash flow from operations has continued to improve, it still
experienced a cash loss from operations during the nine months ended June 30,
1998. This operating cash flow loss for the first six months was primarily due
to the payment of settlement costs associated with the Company's minority
shareholder litigation, which was settled in February 1998. The Company
anticipates that its working cash flow from operations for the remainder of
fiscal year 1998 will continue to improve.
INVESTING ACTIVITIES:
During the nine months ended June 30, 1998, the Company invested approximately
$1,411,360 for transportation, machinery and equipment, computer equipment and
software, and other fixed assets.
FINANCING ACTIVITIES:
The Company has historically funded its operations, acquisitions and debt
service through cash advances from its majority shareholder WSI. As a result of
the Company's prior expansion and program of acquisitions, the Company has
experienced liquidity deficiencies.
In October 1994, WSI made a non-interest bearing cash advance of $1,000,000 to
the Company, which was converted into 416,667 shares of Common Stock in April
1995. In the first half of 1995, WSI made non-interest bearing cash advances
totaling $4,100,000 to the Company. In June 1995, the Company executed a
$6,000,000 revolving promissory note, which was utilized in part to repay the
advances. This note was renegotiated in September 1995 (the "1995 Note"),
increasing the total available to $8,000,000 including interest, with the
principal not to exceed $7,400,000. The 1995 Note bears interest at the prime
rate and provides for the payment of interest in quarterly installments which is
automatically added to the outstanding principal balance, if not paid. The 1995
Note was due and payable on December 31, 1996,
11
12
but to date, the Company has requested and received monthly extensions of the
maturity date. The 1995 Note is presently due and payable in full on September
30, 1998. As of September 30, 1997, 1996, and 1995, the Company had borrowed
$4,844,217, $8,843,000 and $4,100,000 respectively under the 1995 Note. During
February 1998, the Company and WSI converted an additional $750,000 of debt
under the 1995 Note, into Series C preferred stock.
During fiscal year 1996, the Company received cash advances from WSI in excess
of the 1995 Note. As a result, in December 1996, the Company entered into a
Revolving Credit Facility of $2.7 million including deferred interest (the "1996
Credit Facility"), with a maturity date of February 28, 1997. The maturity date
was subsequently extended to June 30, 1997. In February 1997, the Company
received a letter from the NASDAQ Stock Market, Inc. ("NASDAQ") regarding the
Company's failure to meet listing requirements. These requirements included
maintaining a minimum capital and surplus of at least $1,000,000 and a minimum
bid price of $1.00. The NASDAQ agreed to allow the Company to remain listed,
with an exception added to its trading symbol, until June 25, 1997, at which
time the Company would be required to meet the listing requirement. In June
1997, WSI converted $7,000,000 of debt into 1,000,000 shares of 3CI preferred
stock and canceled the 1996 Credit Facility. This conversion allowed the Company
to meet the listing requirement of the NASDAQ. On June 26, 1997, the NASDAQ
confirmed that the Company was in compliance with all requirements necessary for
continued listing on the exchange and the exception to its trading symbol was
removed. The conversion also resulted in the reduction of the outstanding
indebtedness of the 1995 Note.
During the fiscal years ended September 30, 1997, 1996 and 1995 WSI has made
cash advances to the Company of $2,303,000, $4,000,000 and $4,100,000. During
fiscal year 1998, the Company received a cash advance from WSI in the amount of
$500,000. This advance was utilized for settlement costs and expenses incurred
in the Rash litigation. WSI is under no obligation to provide additional
advances under the 1995 Note and could demand payment of all outstanding
indebtedness under the 1995 Note at any time after September 30, 1998. During
fiscal year 1997 and continuing into fiscal 1998, the Company has continued to
have discussions with third party lenders to obtain an alternative source of
financing apart from WSI. In the event the Company and WSI do not come to a
resolution on the restructuring of the 1995 Note and the Company is unable to
obtain alternative financing, there can be no assurance that the Company will be
able to meet its obligations as they become due or realize the recorded value of
its assets.
During February 1998, the Company and WSI converted an additional $750,000 of
debt under the 1995 Note, into Series C preferred stock. Also, during March
1998, the Company exchanged 1,000,000 shares of Series A preferred stock for
7,000,000 shares of Series B preferred stock.
During fiscal 1998, the Company repaid approximately $663,502 of its notes
payable and approximately $1,091,676 of its long-term debt that became due.
During the first quarter of the fiscal year 1998, the Board of Directors of the
Company authorized the repurchase of up to 150,000 shares of 3CI common stock
from time to time in the open market. Since the authorization by the board of
Directors, the Company has repurchased 11,000 shares at cost of $32,105 as of
March 31, 1998, and an additional 2,000 shares for $3,332 as of August 11, 1998.
The nature and level of competition in the medical waste industry has remained
high for several years. This condition has produced aggressive price competition
and results in pressures on profit margins. The Company competes against
companies which have access to greater capital resources. In order to
effectively compete in the industry on a long-term basis and fully realize its
business strategy, the Company will require additional and continued financing
and other assistance from its current majority shareholder and if available,
from outside sources. There is no assurance that adequate funds for these
purposes will be available when needed or, if available, on terms acceptable to
the Company.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings -
James T. Rash, et al. v. Waste Systems, Inc. et al. In May 1995, a group of
minority stockholders of the Company, including Patrick Grafton, former Chief
Executive Officer of the Company, acting individually and purportedly on behalf
of all minority stockholders, and on behalf of the Company, filed suit against
the Company, WSI and various Directors of the Company in the federal District
Court of Harris County, Texas. The plaintiffs alleged minority stockholder
oppression, breach of fiduciary duty and breach of contract and "thwarting of
reasonable expectations" and demanded an accounting, appointment of a receiver
for the sale of the Company, unspecified actual damages and punitive damages of
$10 million, plus attorney's fees. In addition, Mr. Grafton alleged unspecified
damages as a result of his removal as an officer and director of the Company and
the Company's failure to renew his employment agreement in March 1995 and
alleged that such removal was wrongful and ineffective. The Company's insurer
has denied coverage in the lawsuit. The Company denied all material allegations
of the lawsuit. The Company and Mr. Grafton reached a settlement of Mr.
Grafton's individual claims relating to his removal as an officer and Director
of the Company. The terms of the settlement reached between the Company and Mr.
Grafton are confidential to both parties. The Company also entered into a
settlement agreement with the plaintiffs to settle this action, which has been
approved by the court. Pursuant to the settlement, the Company has agreed to (i)
issue 78,014 shares of Common Stock to the plaintiffs, (ii) issue Warrants for
1,002,964 shares of Common Stock to the plaintiffs on the basis one Warrant for
every three shares of common stock owned and (iii) paid $425,000 into escrow for
payment of plaintiff's attorneys' fees.
River Bay. As previously reported, on or about March 10, 1997, the Company
commenced arbitration proceedings before the American Arbitration Association in
Houston, Texas, against River Bay Corporation and Marlan Baucum. The Company was
seeking damages and/or to set aside the Purchase Agreement (the "Purchase
Agreement") and ancillary agreements, including a Put Option Agreement (the "Put
Option Agreement") entered into in connection with the acquisition of the River
Bay Assets. If otherwise enforceable, the Put Option Agreement would have
required the payment by the Company of approximately $1,700,000 for 565,500
shares of 3CI common stock.
In response, on April 9, 1997, Bank of Raleigh and Smith County Bank, assignees
of certain rights under the Purchase Agreement, commenced a complaint for a
declaratory and monetary relief in the U.S. District Court for the Southern
District of Mississippi, Jackson, Division in Civil Action No. 3:97cv249BN. The
Bank of Raleigh and Smith County Bank prayed declaratory judgment declaring the
arbitration provision in the Purchase Agreement to be not binding upon the said
banks, declaratory judgment declaring the claims of 3CI against River Bay to be
subordinate to the claims of the banks, unspecified compensatory damages and for
punitive damages for least $1,000,000. The District Court stayed this action as
well, pending arbitration. In this action the Bank of Raleigh and Smith County
Bank proceeded to collect the Company's accounts receivable in the River Bay
division as it was used as collateral in the Purchase Agreement, they collected
approximately $463,000, through October 14, 1997. On or about May 10, 1997, the
Company filed a Petition of Arbitration in Suit No. 422,107 of the First
Judicial District Court, Caddo Parish, Louisiana, naming River Bay and Marlan
Baucum as defendants therein. This lawsuit sought an injunction and stay of all
judicial and extra-judicial proceedings pursuant to the Put Option Agreement
until such time as the arbitration was completed. This action was removed by the
defendants to the U.S. District Court for the Western district of Louisiana,
Shreveport division in
13
14
Civil Action No. 97-0578. The parties agreed to settle the suit in consideration
for the Company to repurchase the remaining 565,500 shares of Common Stock
related to the Put Option Agreement for $816,364. The outcome of this lawsuit
did not have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial position,
results of operations and net cash flows.
The Company is subject to certain other litigation and claims arising in the
ordinary course of business. In the opinion of management of the Company, the
amounts ultimately payable, if any, as a result of such claims and assessments
will not have a materially adverse effect on the Company's financial position,
result of operations or net cash flows except where noted above.
