                  AVALON HOLDINGS CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
              Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
                                  (Unaudited)
                                 June 30, 2000

Note 1.  Basis of Presentation

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Avalon Holdings
Corporation and subsidiaries (collectively the "Company" or "Avalon") and
related notes included herein have been prepared in accordance with the rules
and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission.  Accordingly, certain
information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been
omitted consistent with such rules and regulations.  The accompanying unaudited
condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes should be read in
conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes
included in the Company's 1999 Annual Report to Shareholders.

In the opinion of management, these unaudited condensed consolidated financial
statements include all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments,
necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position of the Company as of
June 30, 2000, and the results of operations and cash flows for the interim
periods presented.

The operating results for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of
the results to be expected for the full year.

Note 2.  Basic Net Income (Loss) Per Share

Basic net income (loss) per share has been computed using the weighted average
number of common shares outstanding each period which was 3,803,331.  There were
no common equivalent shares outstanding and therefore diluted per share amounts
are equal to basic per share amounts for the three and six months ended June 30,
2000 and 1999.

Note 3.  Short-Term Investments

The Company's securities investments that are bought and held principally for
the purpose of selling them in the near term are classified as trading
securities.  Trading securities are recorded at fair value on the balance sheet,
with the change in fair value during the period included in earnings.  Trading
securities are invested primarily in debt securities and are included in the
Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet under the caption "Short-term investments".
The balance of the Company's trading securities at June 30, 2000 was
approximately $4.0 million.  As of June 30, 2000 the unrealized gain on trading
securities was approximately $11,000.

Securities investments that the Company has the intent and ability to hold to
maturity are classified as held-to-maturity securities and recorded at amortized
cost. At June 30, 2000, the Company had no held-to-maturity securities.
Securities investments not classified as either held-to-maturity or trading
securities are classified as available-for-sale securities.  Available-for-sale
securities are recorded at fair value on the balance sheet, with the change in
fair value during the period excluded from earnings and recorded net of tax as a
separate component of equity.  Available-for-sale securities are invested
primarily in debt securities and are included in the Condensed Consolidated
Balance Sheet under the caption "Short-term

                                       6
<PAGE>

investments". The balance of the Company's available-for-sale securities at June
30, 2000 was approximately $ .7 million. At June 30, 2000, the cost of
available-for-sale securities approximated their fair value and therefore the
Company had no unrealized gains or losses on these securities.


Note 4.  Comprehensive Income

The Company has no items that qualify as a component of other comprehensive
income as defined in Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 130,
Reporting Comprehensive Income and, therefore, comprehensive income equals net
income for all periods presented.

Note 5. Legal Matters

In September 1995, certain subsidiaries of the Company were informed that they
had been identified as potentially responsible parties by the Indiana Department
of Environmental Management with respect to a Fulton County, Indiana, hazardous
waste disposal facility which is subject to remedial action under Indiana
Environmental Laws.  Such identification was based upon the subsidiaries having
been involved in the transportation of hazardous substances to the facility.  A
large number of waste generators and other waste transportation and disposal
companies have also been identified as responsible or potentially responsible
parties with respect to this facility and the extent of any ultimate liability
of any of the Company's subsidiaries is unknown.  During the fourth quarter of
1999, the Company became a party to an Agreed Order and a Participation
Agreement regarding the remediation of a portion of the site.  The Participation
Agreement provides for, among other things, the allocation of all site
remediation costs except for approximately $3 million.  The Company's total
liability for the allocated costs under the Participation Agreement was
approximately $71,000.   The Company paid $54,000 in the fourth quarter of 1999
and the remaining $17,000 is included in the June 30, 2000 Condensed
Consolidated Balance Sheet under the caption "Other liabilities and accrued
expenses."  This amount was paid in the third quarter of 2000.

The additional unallocated site remediation costs are currently estimated to be
approximately $3 million.  The extent of any ultimate liability of any of the
Company's subsidiaries with respect to these additional costs is unknown;
however, the Company's allocable share of these site costs is currently
estimated to be 4%.  As a result, the Company's total accrued liability relating
to the remediation of this site on an undiscounted basis is $137,000, $120,000
of which is included in the June 30, 2000 Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet
under the caption "Other noncurrent liabilities."    The Company's ultimate
liability is expected to be determined during the year 2000.

In the ordinary course of conducting its business, Avalon also becomes involved
in lawsuits, administrative proceedings and governmental investigations,
including those related to environmental matters.  Some of these proceedings may
result in fines, penalties or judgments being assessed against Avalon which,
from time to time, may have an impact on its business and financial condition.
Although the outcome of such lawsuits or other proceedings  cannot be predicted
with certainty, the Company does not believe that any uninsured ultimate
liabilities, fines or penalties resulting from such pending proceedings,
individually or in the aggregate, would have a material adverse effect on it.


Note 6.  Business Segment Information.

For business segment information, the Company considered its operating and
management structure and the types of information subject to regular review by
its "chief operating decision maker."  On this basis, the Company's reportable
segments include transportation services, technical environmental services, and
waste disposal brokerage and management services.  The Company accounts for
intersegment net

                                       7
<PAGE>

operating revenue as if the transactions were to third parties. The segment
disclosures are presented on this basis for all periods presented.

Avalon's primary business segment provides transportation services that include
transportation of hazardous and nonhazardous waste as well as general and bulk
commodities.  The technical environmental services segment provides
environmental consulting, engineering, site assessments, analytical laboratory,
remediation services and operates and manages a captive landfill for an
industrial customer.  The waste disposal brokerage and management services
segment provides disposal brokerage and management services for both hazardous
and nonhazardous waste.  Other businesses include the operation of a public golf
course and related operations.  Avalon does not have significant operations
located outside the United States and, accordingly, geographical segment
information is not presented.

The accounting policies of the segments are consistent with those described for
the consolidated financial statements in the summary of significant accounting
policies.  The Company measures segment profit for internal reporting purposes
as income (loss) before taxes.  Business segment information including the
reconciliation of segment income to consolidated income (loss) before taxes is
as follows (in thousands):

Item 2.  Management's Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The following discussion provides information which management believes is
relevant to an assessment and understanding of the operations and financial
condition of Avalon Holdings Corporation and its subsidiaries.  As used in this
report, the terms "Avalon", or "Company" mean Avalon Holdings Corporation and
its wholly owned subsidiaries, taken as a whole, unless the context indicates
otherwise.

Statements included in Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations which are not historical in nature are
intended to be, and are hereby identified as, 'forward looking statements.'  The
Company cautions readers that forward looking statements, including, without
limitation, those relating to the Company's future business prospects, revenues,
working capital, liquidity, capital needs, interest costs, and income, are
subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to
differ materially from those indicated in the forward looking statements, due to
risks and factors identified herein and from time to time in the Company's
reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.


Liquidity and Capital Resources
-------------------------------

For the first six months of 2000, the Company utilized existing cash to fund
capital expenditures and meet operating needs.

During the first six months of 2000, capital spending for Avalon totaled $4.4
million which was principally related to capital improvements to the golf course
and to a lesser extent the purchase of equipment for the Company's
transportation and technical environmental services operations.  Avalon's
capital spending in 2000 is expected to be in the range of $5 million to $7
million which will relate principally to capital improvements to the golf
course, golf course related facilities and acquiring additional transportation
equipment.

On August 2, 1999, the Company closed the golf course to begin capital
improvements which are currently estimated to be in the range of $4.5 million to
$5.5 million.  In addition to the capital improvements to the golf course, the
Company anticipates capital expenditures of approximately $1 million for
improvements to golf course related facilities.  During 1999 and the first six
months of 2000, golf course and golf course related capital expenditures
amounted to $ 4.4 million.  The golf course resumed operations on a limited
basis during the third quarter of 2000.

Working capital decreased to $23.9 million at June 30, 2000 compared with $27
million at December 31, 1999.  The decrease is primarily the result of utilizing
existing cash for capital expenditures.

The increase in Accounts receivable at June 30, 2000 compared with December 31,
1999 is primarily due to increased Accounts receivable of the transportation
operations as a result of increased net operating revenue of the transportation
brokerage operations during the second quarter of 2000.

The decrease in Accrued payroll and other compensation at June 30, 2000 compared
with December 31, 1999 is primarily the result of a payment of accrued
performance-based compensation during the first quarter of 2000.

The increase in Other liabilities and accrued expenses is primarily attributed
to an accrual for a portion of the Company contribution to the Company's defined
contributions profit sharing plan for the year 2000.

                                       10
<PAGE>

Such plan is a qualified deferred benefit plan under section 401(k) of the
Internal Revenue Code. The accrual for the 1999 Company contribution of
approximately $.6 million, included in Other liabilities and accrued expenses,
will be paid in the third quarter of 2000.

Management believes that cash provided from operations, the availability of
working capital, as well as the Company's ability to incur indebtedness, will
be, for the foreseeable future, sufficient to meet operating requirements and
fund capital expenditure programs.  Avalon does not currently have a credit
facility.

The Company is not aggressively pursuing potential acquisition candidates but
will continue to consider acquisitions that make economic sense.  While the
Company has not entered into any pending agreements for acquisitions, it may do
so at any time.  Such potential acquisitions could be financed by existing
working capital, secured or unsecured debt, issuance of common stock, or
issuance of a security with characteristics of both debt and equity, any of
which could impact liquidity in the future.


Results of Operations

Overall performance

Net operating revenues in the second quarter of 2000 increased to $21.5 million
compared with $19.5 million in the prior year's second quarter.  Cost of
operations increased to $19.5 million in the second quarter of 2000 compared
with $16.7 million in the prior year quarter.  The Company recorded a net loss
of $188,000 or a loss of $.05 per share for the second quarter of 2000 compared
with net income of $365,000 or $.10 per share for the second quarter of 1999.
For the first six months of 2000, net operating revenues were $42.7 million
compared with $39 million for the first six months of 1999.  Cost of operations
increased to $38.6 million for the first six months of 2000 compared with $33.8
million for the first six months of the prior year.  During the first six months
of 2000, the Company recorded a net loss of $325,000 or a loss of $.09 per share
compared with net income of $431,000 or $.11 per share for the first six months
of 1999.

Performance in the Second Quarter of 2000 compared with the Second Quarter of
1999

Segment performance

Segment performance should be read in conjunction with Note 6 to the Condensed
Consolidated Financial Statements.

Net operating revenues of the transportation services segment increased to $12.1
million in the second quarter of 2000 compared with $9.4 million in the second
quarter of the prior year.  The increase in net operating revenues is primarily
attributable to an increase in the net operating revenues of transportation
brokerage operations and an increase in the transportation of municipal solid
waste.  Income before taxes decreased significantly to $.1 million for the
second quarter of 2000 compared with $.4 million for the second quarter of 1999
primarily as a result of increased fuel expense due to higher fuel prices and
increased rental, depreciation and employee related expenses, partially offset
by improved operating results of the transportation brokerage operations.

                                       11
<PAGE>

Net operating revenues of the technical environmental services segment decreased
to $6.4 million in the second quarter of 2000 compared with $7.4 million in the
second quarter of the prior year.  The decrease in net operating revenues was
primarily the result of a decrease in the level of remediation services
provided.  The technical environmental services segment recorded income before
taxes of $.1 million in the second quarter of 2000 compared with income before
taxes of $.5 million in the second quarter of 1999.  The decrease in income
before taxes is primarily the result of increased expenses of the laboratory
operations which incurred a loss before taxes in the second quarter of 2000
compared with income before taxes in the prior year quarter and decreased income
before taxes of the remediation services business resulting from a decrease in
the level of services provided.  The engineering and consulting business
incurred a loss before taxes in both the second quarter of 2000 and 1999.

Net operating revenues of the waste disposal brokerage and management services
segment increased to $5.1 million in the second quarter of 2000 compared with
$3.9 million in the second quarter of the prior year.  The increase in net
operating revenues is primarily the result of an increase in the level of
disposal brokerage and management services provided.  Income before taxes for
the waste disposal brokerage and management services segment was $.3 million in
the second quarter of 2000 compared with $.2 million in the second quarter of
1999. Despite the increase in net operating revenues, income before taxes did
not increase significantly because of higher selling and administrative
expenses.

The Company's other businesses consist of the operation of a public golf course
and related operations.  During the third quarter of 1999, the Company closed
the golf course to make significant capital improvements to the course and
related facilities.  As a result, net operating revenues for the other
businesses decreased to $.2 million for the second quarter of 2000 compared with
$1 million for the second quarter of 1999.  The other businesses incurred a loss
before taxes of $.3 million for the second quarter of 2000 compared with income
before taxes of $.2 million for the second quarter of the prior year. The golf
course resumed  operations on a limited basis during the third quarter of 2000.


Interest income

Interest income decreased to $220,000 in the second quarter of 2000 compared
with $264,000 in the second quarter of 1999 primarily due to the decline in the
average amount of cash and cash equivalents during the second quarter of 2000
compared with the prior year quarter, partially offset by an increase in
investment rates.

General corporate expenses

General corporate expenses decreased to $.8 million in the second quarter of
2000 compared with $1 million in the second quarter of the prior year.   Such
decrease is primarily the result of lower performance based compensation
expense.

Net income

The Company incurred a net loss of $188,000 in the second quarter of 2000
compared with net income of $365,000 in the second quarter of the prior year.
The Company's overall effective tax rate, including the effect of state income
tax provisions, was 50% in the second quarter of 2000 compared with 43.3% in the
prior year's second quarter.  The effective tax rate for the current and prior
year period is higher than the

                                       12

federal statutory rates due to state income taxes, the nondeductibility for tax
purposes of the amortization of costs in excess of fair market value of net
assets of acquired businesses and other nondeductible expenses.



Performance in the First Six Months of 2000 compared with the First Six Months
of 1999

Segment performance

Net operating revenues of the transportation services segment increased to $24.1
million for the first six months of 2000 compared with $18.5 million for the
first six months of the prior year.  The increase is primarily attributable to
an increase in the net operating revenues of the transportation brokerage
operations and an increase in the transportation of municipal solid waste.
Income before taxes of the transportation services segment decreased to $.2
million for the first six months of 2000 compared with $.7 million for the first
six months of the prior year.  The decrease is primarily the result of increased
fuel expense due to higher fuel prices and increased rental, depreciation and
employee related expenses, partially offset by improved operating results of the
transportation brokerage operations.

Net operating revenues of the technical environmental services segment decreased
to $13.5 million in the first six months of 2000 compared with $15.1 million in
the first six months of 1999.  The decrease is primarily attributable to a
decrease in net operating revenues of remediation services and engineering and
consulting services.  Income before taxes for the first six months of 2000
decreased to $.3 million compared with $.9 million for the first six months of
the prior year.  The decrease is primarily the result of a decrease in the level
of services provided by the remediation, engineering and consulting business and
increased expenses of the laboratory operations.  The laboratory operations and
the engineering and consulting business both incurred losses before taxes for
the first six months of 2000 compared with income before taxes for the first six
months of the prior year.

Net operating revenues of the waste disposal brokerage and management services
segment increased to $10.6 million in the first six months of 2000 compared with
$8.6 million in the first six months of 1999.  The increase in net operating
revenues is primarily the result of an increase in the level of disposal
brokerage and management services provided.  Income before taxes increased to
$.6 million for the first six months of 2000 compared with $.5 million for the
first six months of the prior year.  Despite the increase in net operating
revenues, income before taxes did not increase significantly because of higher
selling and administrative expenses.

The Company's other businesses consist of the operation of a public golf course
and related operations.  During the third quarter of 1999, the Company closed
the golf course to make significant capital improvements to the course and
related facilities.  As a result, net operating revenues for the other
businesses decreased to $.4 million for the first six months of 2000 compared
with $1.3 million for the first six months of 1999.  The other businesses
incurred a loss before taxes of $.5 million for the first six months of 2000
compared with a loss before taxes of $19,000 in the first six months of the
prior year.  The golf course resumed operations on a limited basis during the
third quarter of 2000.

Interest Income

Interest income decreased to $480,000 for the first six months of 2000 compared
with $531,000 for the first six months of the prior year, primarily due to a
decline in the average amount of cash and cash equivalents during the first six
months of 2000 compared with the first six months of the prior year, partially
offset by an increase in investment rates.


General Corporate Expenses

General corporate expenses decreased to $1.7 million in the first six months of
2000 compared with $1.9 million for the first six months of the prior year.
Such decrease is primarily the result of lower performance based compensation
expense.

Net Income

The Company recorded a net loss of $.3 million in the first six months of 2000
compared with net income of $.4 million in the first six months of the prior
year.  The Company's overall effective tax rate, including the effect of state
income tax provisions, was 50% in the first six months of 2000 compared with 43%
in the first six months of the prior year.  The effective tax rate for the
current and prior year period is higher than the federal statutory rates due to
state income taxes, the nondeductibility for tax purposes of the amortization of
costs in excess of fair market value of net assets of acquired businesses and
other nondeductible expenses.


Trends and Uncertainties

In the ordinary course of conducting its business, the Company becomes involved
in lawsuits, administrative proceedings and governmental investigations,
including those relating to environmental matters.  Some of these proceedings
may result in fines, penalties or judgments being assessed against the Company
which, from time to time, may have an impact on its business and financial
condition.  Although the outcome of such lawsuits or other proceedings cannot be
predicted with certainty, the Company does not believe that any uninsured
ultimate liabilities, fines or penalties resulting from such pending
proceedings, individually or in the aggregate, would have a material adverse
effect on it.

The federal government and numerous state and local governmental bodies are
continuing to consider legislation or regulations to either restrict or impede
the disposal and/or transportation of waste.  A significant portion of the
Company's transportation and disposal brokerage and management revenues is
derived from the disposal or transportation of out-of-state waste.  Any law or
regulation restricting or impeding the transportation of waste or the acceptance
of out-of-state waste for disposal could have a significant negative effect on
the Company.

As in the case with any transportation company, an increase in fuel prices may
subject the Company's transportation operations to increased operating expenses,
which the Company, in light of competitive market conditions, may not be able to
pass on to its customers.  During the first six months and

                                       14
<PAGE>

continuing into the third quarter of 2000, the Company's transportation
operations experienced significant increases in fuel prices, some of which the
Company has not and will not be able to pass on to its customers.

Competitive pressures within the environmental industry continue to impact the
financial performance of the Company's transportation services, technical
environmental services and waste disposal brokerage and management services.  A
decline in the rates which customers are willing to pay for its services could
adversely impact the future financial performance of the Company.

The Company's waste disposal brokerage and management operations obtain and
retain customers by providing service and identifying cost-efficient disposal
options unique to a customer's needs.  Continued consolidation within the solid
waste industry has resulted in reducing the number of disposal options available
to waste generators and has caused disposal pricing to increase.  The Company
does not believe that pricing changes alone will have a material effect upon its
waste disposal brokerage and management operations.  However, consolidation will
have the effect of reducing the number of competitors offering disposal
alternatives to the Company, which may adversely impact the future financial
performance of the waste disposal brokerage and management operations.

As a result of the significant capital improvements to the golf course, the
green fees charged customers to play a round of golf will be increased
substantially.  Although the Company believes that the capital improvements made
to the golf course justify the increased green fees and will result in increased
net operating revenues and increased income before taxes, there can be no
assurance as to when such increases will be attained.

The Company's operations are somewhat seasonal in nature because a significant
portion of the operations are performed primarily in selected northeastern and
midwestern states.  As a result, the company's financial performance could be
adversely affected by winter weather conditions.


Market Risk

The Company does not have significant exposure to changing interest rates
because of the low level of indebtedness of the Company.  The Company does not
undertake any specific actions to cover its exposure to interest rate risk and
the Company is not a party to any interest rate risk management transactions.

The Company does not purchase or hold any derivative financial instruments.

Currently, a 10% change in interest rates would have an immaterial effect on the
Company's income before taxes for the next fiscal year.  The Company currently
has no debt outstanding and invests in short-term money market funds and other
short and long term obligations.

Accounting Pronouncements

During 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments
and Hedging Activities," which establishes accounting and reporting standards
for derivative instruments and for hedging activities.  This Statement

                                       15
<PAGE>

is effective for all quarters of fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2000. The
Company does not purchase or hold any derivative financial instruments and, as
such, the Company does not anticipate this Statement to have any impact on its
financial position or results of operations.

                          PART II.  OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1.  Legal Proceedings

In September 1995, certain subsidiaries of the Company were informed that they
had been identified as potentially responsible parties by the Indiana Department
of Environmental Management with respect to a Fulton County, Indiana, hazardous
waste disposal facility which is subject to remedial action under Indiana
Environmental Laws.  Such identification was based upon the subsidiaries having
been involved in the transportation of hazardous substances to the facility.  A
large number of waste generators and other waste transportation and disposal
companies have also been identified as responsible or potentially responsible
parties with respect to this facility and the extent of any ultimate liability
of any of the Company's subsidiaries is unknown.  During the fourth quarter of
1999, the Company became a party to an Agreed Order and a Participation
Agreement regarding the remediation of a portion of the site.  The Participation
Agreement provides for, among other things, the allocation of all site
remediation costs except for approximately $3 million.  The Company's total
liability for the allocated costs under the Participation Agreement was
approximately $71,000.  The Company paid $54,000 in the fourth quarter of 1999
and the remaining $17,000 is included in the June 30, 2000 Condensed
Consolidated Balance Sheet under the caption "Other liabilities and accrued
expenses."   This amount was paid in the third quarter of 2000.

The additional unallocated site remediation costs are currently estimated to be
approximately $3 million.  The extent of any ultimate liability of any of the
Company's subsidiaries with respect to these additional costs is unknown;
however, the Company's allocable share of these site costs is currently
estimated to be 4%.  As a result, the Company's total accrued liability relating
to the remediation of this site on an undiscounted basis is $137,000, $120,000
of which is included in the June 30, 2000 Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet
under the caption "Other noncurrent liabilities."    The Company's ultimate
liability is expected to be determined during the year 2000.

In the ordinary course of conducting its business, Avalon also becomes involved
in lawsuits, administrative proceedings and governmental investigations,
including those related to environmental matters.  Some of these proceedings may
result in fines, penalties or judgments being assessed against the Company
which, from time to time, may have an impact on its business and financial
condition.  Although the outcome of such lawsuits or other proceedings cannot be
predicted with certainty, the Company does not believe that any uninsured
ultimate liabilities, fines or penalties resulting from such pending
proceedings, individually or in the aggregate, would have a material adverse
effect on it.
