                          NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


Note 1. Basis of Presentation

STARTECH Environmental Corporation (the "Company") is engaged in the
commercialization and continued development of an innovative processing
technology for the recovery, recycling, reduction and remediation of hazardous
and nonhazardous waste materials.

Net profit (loss) per share is determined by dividing net loss by the weighted
average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Common share
equivalents, which consist of stock which may be issuable upon exercise of
outstanding stock options and warrants, have been excluded from the weighted
average number of common shares since their effect is anti-dilutive.

Certain reclassifications have been made for consistent presentation. The
reclassifications have no effect on the net profit (loss) for the period ending
January 31, 2000.

The information furnished is unaudited and reflects all adjustments (consisting
of only normal recurring adjustments) which, in the opinion of management, are
necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position and results of
operations for the interim periods. The accompanying financial statements should
be read in conjunction with the Company's financial statements and related
footnotes for the year ended October 31, 1999 which are included in the
Company's annual report on form 10-K for the period ended October 31, 1999. The
results of operations for the quarter ended January 31, 2000 are not necessarily
indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.



Note 2. Equity Transactions

The company received $1,860,050 in warrant monies applicable to a previous
private placement dated December 31, 1996. The company issued 531,126 common
stock shares.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
        OF OPERATIONS.



Result of Operations
--------------------


For the three months ended January 31, 2000, the Company reported revenues from
operations of $598,000, compared to $1,048,246 for the three months ended
January 31, 1999.

The Company's selling and administrative expenses of $690,012 were comprised of
operating costs, salaries and moving expenses. The increase in operating
expenses was primarily the result of increased personnel expenses incurred by
the Company in building its infrastructure, assembling a team of engineers and
other professionals preparing its technologies for sale, and moving expenses
associated with our new expanded corporate headquarters located at 15 Old
Danbury Road, Suite 203, Wilton, CT 06897. The move was completed on December
15, 1999. As a result of these activities, the Company had a first quarter loss
of $281,635, a decrease from an operating profit of $5,389 for the same period
1999.

Dividend expenses of $148,104 was declared during the first quarter 2000
relating to the Series A 8.00% Cumulative Preferred Stock.


Liquidity and Capital Resource
------------------------------

Net cash used by operating activities of ($396,360) related primarily to the
Company's $281,635 net loss for the 1st quarter. The Company however had a net
working capital surplus of $6,409,171, an increase of $5,869,843 from January
31, 1999. The increase in the working capital was principally the result of an
increase in financing activities through the warrants that were exercised at
$3.50 per share and the recent convertible preferred that was issued on October
20, 1999.

The Company believes its existing cash, together with projected cash flows from
operations and the availability of future equity and debt offerings, will be
sufficient to meet the Company's cash requirements in 2000.

Background
----------

The Registrant's activities during the four fiscal years, November 1, 1992 to
October 31, 1995, consisted primarily of investigating possible business
opportunities. On November 17, 1995, the Company completed the acquisition of
all of the issued and outstanding shares of the common stock of Startech
Incorporated ("Startech"), a corporation incorporated and organized under the
laws of the State of Connecticut. Startech designs and manufactures machinery to
recover, recycle, reduce and remediate hazardous and nonhazardous waste
materials.

On November 18, 1995, the Board of Directors of the Company unanimously approved
a change of business purpose of the Company from one seeking an acquisition
candidate to one engaged in the business of recovering, recycling, reduction and
remediation of hazardous and nonhazardous waste materials. From that time to the
time of this filing, the Company has maintained only this focus.


General
-------

Startech is an environmental technology corporation engaged in the
commercialization and continued development of its Plasma Waste Converter(TM)
(PWC) systems for the recycling, resource recovery, reduction and remediation of
hazardous and nonhazardous organic and inorganic materials and wastes including
radioactive wastes.

The Startech Plasma Waste Converter is a closed-loop recycling system that
converts materials formerly regarded as hazardous wastes into useful commodity
products. The hazardous waste can be organic and inorganic, in the form of a
gas, liquid, and solids or any combination thereof. Waste volume reductions
higher than 300 to 1 have been demonstrated. Depending on the waste processed,
the principal commodities produced by the system are a synthetic gas called PCG
(Plasma Converted Gas)(TM), metals, and an obsidian-like inert silicate stone.
The PCG can be used as a chemical feed stock to produce polymers and other
common industrial products, as a fuel to produce electricity, as a fuel source
for fuel cells, as a heating plant fuel to reduce the cost and reliance on
fossil fuels, and in desalinization applications to produce fresh water for
irrigation and drinking. The metals can be employed in the metallurgical
industry. The stone silicates can be employed in the abrasives industry, and as
an aggregate material for construction industry applications.

                           PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
                           ---------------------------


ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.

The company and certain of its officers, and past officers, individually and
corporately, are defendants in litigation brought in Bridgeport, Connecticut,
USA Federal Court in February 1998 by John Easton of Canada. The proceedings are
still in the discovery stage. The company will vigorously contest the matter.
The company intends to file a counter claim against Mr. Easton in the matter.

On December 19, 1997 the Company brought suit in Federal Court, District of
Connecticut, seeking a preliminary injunction to enforce a Non-disclosure and
Non-compete provisions within four Distributorship Agreements executed by David
Ivey in his personal capacity and in his capacity as a corporate officer for
these four companies. The Company believed that Mr. Ivey had plans to use the
information provided by the Company to him in his capacity as a Distributor to
gain knowledge of the Company's confidential information. After being sued by
the Company, Mr. Ivey has now filed a counterclaim claiming that the Company
misrepresented certain material facts surrounding its technology and its ability
to produce its product. While the Company is confident that it will prevail on
the merits and believes that the claims by Mr. Ivey are vexatious in nature,
there can be no guarantee of success until the case is resolved. The claims made
by both parties have been referred for binding arbitration before the American
Arbitration Association. The action is in its preliminary stages of those
proceedings. At the present time there is an agreement between the parties to
withdraw the action with prejudice without costs to either side. That agreement
is pending court approval and the company expects it to be approved.
