This Annual Report on Form 10-K contains certain forward-looking statements
within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended and
Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, which are
intended to be covered by the safe harbors created thereby. Investors are

consummate the sale of its operations or to close on its proposed refinancing,
changes in costs of raw materials, labor, and employee benefits, as well as
general market conditions, competition and pricing. Although the Company

ITEM 1. BUSINESS

Evans Systems, Inc. ("ESI"), through its wholly-owned subsidiaries, collectively
referred to herein as the "Company," is a vertically integrated company which
has historically been engaged in the following business segments:

       o       Texas petroleum marketing operations;
       o       Texas convenience store operations;
       o       environmental remediation services;
       o       Louisiana operations; and
       o       packaging and marketing of automotive after-market chemical
               products.

The Company began in 1968 with a single gasoline station in Bay City, Texas,
emphasizing service and careful attention to customers' preferences and needs.
The Company has expanded over the years, and now distributes the products of
seven major oil companies, and operates a chain of convenience stores throughout
southeast Texas and southern Louisiana.

After sustaining losses during 1997, in early fiscal 1998 the management of ESI
developed and began to implement its turnaround strategy. Among other things,
the strategy included a decision to refocus the Company on its "core" business
segments: petroleum marketing and convenience store operations. Within these
"core" segments, the Company sold or closed lower-volume outlets. The Company
also took actions, including the elimination of nonessential corporate staff, to
reduce overhead expenses. See "Texas Petroleum Marketing" and "Texas Convenience
Store" segment discussions, below.

In February 1998, ESI discontinued operations in the packaging and marketing of
automotive after-market chemical products, previously operated through its
wholly-owned subsidiary, ChemWay Systems, Inc. ("ChemWay"). ChemWay's financial
results have been reclassified as a "discontinued operation" for financial
reporting purposes. In December 1998, the Company sold ChemWay in a
stock-for-stock transaction to Affiliated Resources Corporation ("Affiliated").
See "ChemWay" below.

                                     Page 2
<PAGE>
In December 1999, the Company signed an agreement to sell its Texas petroleum
marketing and convenience store operations to TSC Services, Inc., ("TSC") for
cash consideration of $12.7 million. TSC also agreed to assume certain capital
lease obligations which the Company estimates will total approximately $0.9
million at the time of closing. In addition, TSC will acquire the Company's
inventories in the Texas petroleum marketing and Texas convenience store
segments at the Company's cost, estimated by management at approximately $2.4
million. The sale has been approved by the Board of Directors and is subject to
approval by the Company's shareholders and other closing conditions. Terms of
the agreement call for the sale of substantially all of the property and
equipment and inventories in the Texas petroleum marketing and Texas convenience
store segments.

The Company has also announced that it is presently negotiating with potential
merger partners.

During the year ended September 30, 1999, the Company adopted SFAS 131,
"Disclosure About Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information." Prior year
segment information presented below has been restated to conform to the current
year presentation.

Operating results for each of the Company's segments follow (in thousands):

TEXAS PETROLEUM MARKETING

The following table sets forth the revenues of the Texas Petroleum Marketing
segment (in thousands):

sales ...................    $49,143         $63,077         $90,888
Non-petroleum product
sales ...................      1,021           1,381           1,589
                             -------         -------         -------
Total Sales .............    $50,164         $64,458         $92,477

The Texas Petroleum Marketing segment's revenues are primarily derived from the
sale of motor fuels to the public through retail outlets:

        o      Gasoline retail facilities with Company-supplied equipment
               consisting of pumps, lights, canopies and in many cases
               underground storage tanks, at independently owned convenience
               stores. Under the terms of the Company's agreements with such
               independent store operators ("Special Purpose Leases"), the
               Company receives 40 percent or 50 percent of the gasoline gross
               profit, depending upon who owns the underground gasoline
               equipment.

        o      Independently owned gasoline stations and convenience stores
               ("Open Dealers") to which the Company provides major oil company
               brand names, credit card processing and signs and, without
               further investment, receives its customary markup on fuel
               deliveries.

The Texas Petroleum Marketing segment also supplies lubricants, tires and
accessories to commercial and industrial customers.

The Texas Petroleum Marketing segment distributes to its motor fuel customers
both directly from refinery racks, and through the Company's bulk plant
facilities. The Company also has a 110,000 barrel terminal facility, located in
Bay City, Texas, from which it has historically distributed motor fuels to the
southeast Texas market. During the first fiscal quarter of 1998, the Company's
supply agreement with the primary fuel supplier to the Bay City terminal
facility was terminated. The loss of the fuel supply agreement had an adverse
effect upon the Texas Petroleum Marketing segment's performance during 1998 and
1999.

Under regulations issued by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency ("EPA"),
all underground storage tanks in the State of Texas were required to meet
certain standards of protection as of December 22, 1998. During 1998, the
Company evaluated the revenues generated by its Special Purpose Lease accounts,
and determined that it could not justify further investment at approximately 46
of such locations. Accordingly, management decided to either sell or close those
identified lower-volume Special Purpose Lease facilities. As of September 30,
1998, the Company sold its investment at 23 of the lower-volume Special Purpose
Lease accounts, and has subsequently sold the equipment at seven additional
sites. Additionally, the Company has discontinued the delivery of motor fuels,
and has removed the underground storage tanks at 16 Special Purpose Lease sites.
The Special Purpose Lease locations where the Company sold its investment in
equipment are now served by the Company as Open Dealers. See "Environmental
Issues," below.

The effect of the conversion of Special Purpose Lease customers into Open
Dealers is to increase the Company's sales revenues with reduced gross margin,
working capital requirements, and capital investment, resulting in an improved
return on investment. Since the Company's margins on Open Dealer accounts are
contractually fixed, however, the Texas Petroleum Marketing Segment's gross
margins may be less volatile in the future, as a larger percentage of the
segment's business will be at fixed margins.

On May 21, 1999, the company closed its bulk storage facility and office in El
Campo, Texas and eliminated 35% of its staff in the Texas Petroleum Marketing
segment. The company also sold its Bay City Tire Store on May 3, 1999. On June
30, 1999, the Company sold its Fuelman fleet card franchise to a competitor.

Number of operating stores
at year-end .............         17              19              26


At September 30, 1999, the Company operated 17 convenience stores, featuring
self-service motor fuels and a variety of food and non-food merchandise. Eight
of the Company's convenience stores are co-branded with a nationally recognized
fast food franchised or licensed food service operation.

The Company's stores are located in smaller communities throughout the gulf
coast region of Texas.

During fiscal 1998, the Company discontinued operations at seven underperforming
convenience stores, and sold the equipment and business to independent
convenience store operators. In each of these transactions, the Company retained
the wholesale gasoline business, through an Open Dealer contract.

The Company closed two underperforming Texas convenience stores during 1999, one
of which was subsequently leased to an independent operator who also agreed to
purchase fuel from the Company as an Open Dealer.

LOUISIANA OPERATIONS

At September 30, 1999 Louisiana operations are comprised of a fuel bulk storage
facility and distribution center, one full-service station without a convenience
store, and seven convenience stores, located in and around Lake Charles,
Louisiana. The Company has previously announced its intention to sell its
Louisiana operations, however there can be no assurance that a sale on terms
satisfactory to the Company will be completed.

EDCO ENVIRONMENTAL

EDCO Environmental provides environmental assessment and remediation services
for the petroleum distribution industry in the southeast Texas market area. EDCO
Environmental currently focuses its efforts on the following activities:

        Underground storage tank ("UST") removal UST regulator upgrades Site
        assessments for regulatory agencies UST repairs and maintenance Site
        clean up reimbursement

EDCO Environmental has provided environmental remediation services to
approximately 100 customers ranging from gasoline stations, convenience stores,
public utilities, banks, major oil companies, large industrial corporations,
various small local enterprises and a variety of governmental institutions and
enterprises. The environmental protection business is primarily the result of
government mandate. In the mid-1980's, the EPA initiated a program for the
management of USTs throughout the U.S.

The EPA now requires stage II vapor recovery improvements at fuel facilities
rather than through on-board canisters in new motor vehicles. The deadline for
compliance with the new UST improvement guidelines was December 1998.

A number of states, including Texas, have established remediation funds to
assist owners/operators in the clean-up of leaking USTs. In Texas, this was
accomplished through the Groundwater Protection Act ("GPA"), which became
effective on September 1, 1989. The GPA, as amended, provides clean-up funds for
eligible expenses, less applicable deductibles. The fund is continually financed
by a tax assessed on motor fuels sold in the state. Financing programs secured
by assignments of rights to reimbursement by the Texas Natural Resource
Conservation Commission ("TNRCC") can be obtained for leaking petroleum storage
tank sites impacted by releases from USTs. For locations where contamination
already exists, the UST owner/operator must comply with TNRCC clean-up
regulations or risk fines of up to $10,000 per day and disqualification from the
benefits and funding of the GPA.

EDCO Environmental reported revenues of $1,542,000, $1,152,000 and $1,320,000 in
1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively.

The TNRCC is continuing to provide reimbursements for clean-up of contaminated
locations.

CHEMWAY (DISCONTINUED MARCH 31, 1998; SOLD DECEMBER 30, 1998)

ChemWay packages aerosol and liquid chemical products for the aftermarket
automotive industry. In February 1998, the Company suspended production and, in
March 1998, announced plans to sell its investment in ChemWay. On December 30,
1998, the Company completed the sale of ChemWay to an unrelated third party,
Affiliated. The Company received 1,500,000 shares of common stock of Affiliated
in exchange for all of the common stock of ChemWay. The number of shares of
Affiliated common stock became subject to a "make whole" provision whereby the
Company became entitled to receive an additional 1,000,000 shares of Affiliated
common stock at December 30, 1999. The Affiliated common stock is unregistered,
however the Company has demand registration rights with respect to such stock.

Affiliated common stock is quoted on the Nasdaq Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board.
In accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, the Affiliated
common stock received in exchange for the common stock of ChemWay was valued at
its "fair value" indicated by the December 30, 1998 bid price of $6.00 per
share, as quoted on the Nasdaq Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board, which resulted
in a gain of $3,973,000, net of a provision for income taxes of $1,203,000.

The Company's investment in Affiliated common stock is illiquid; in addition,
the average trading volume of Affiliated is small in comparison to the number of
shares held by the Company. The trading price of Affiliated stock has been
volatile, ranging from a reported low closing price in the quarter ended June
30, 1998 of $0.88 to a closing price of $6.00 at December 31, 1998 and a closing
price of $0.265 at September 30, 1999.

At December 31, 1998, Affiliated reported, in its Annual Report on Form 10-KSB,
an accumulated deficit of $7,630,070 based on historic losses, and a negative
working capital balance of $912,605. Affiliated reported no revenues from
operations during the last six months of 1998, and reported a loss from
operations of $526,843. In its Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended
December 31, 1998, Affiliated's management stated:
        MANAGEMENT BELIEVES THAT CURRENT DISCUSSIONS WITH INVESTORS WILL YIELD
        SUFFICIENT ADDITIONAL CAPITAL TO CONTINUE ITS

                                     Page 6
<PAGE>
        ACQUISITION STRATEGY AND TO FUND FUTURE OPERATIONS, AND THAT THESE
        ACQUISITIONS WILL GENERATE SUFFICIENT REVENUES TO OPERATE INDEPENDENTLY
        AND PROVIDE AN ASSET BASE FOR CONTINUED GROWTH. THERE IS NO ASSURANCE,
        HOWEVER THAT THE COMPANY WILL BE SUCCESSFUL IN RAISING EQUITY AND
        CONTINUING AS A GOING CONCERN.
In its quarterly report on form 10-QSB, Affiliated reported revenues from
operations of $486,000, a net loss of $1.6 million, negative working capital of
$1.6 million, an accumulated deficit of $9.2 million and stockholders' equity of
$5.0 million.

Management does not believe that the stock price of Affiliated will increase in
the foreseeable future and has determined that its investment in Affiliated
common stock is permanently impaired and, accordingly, has recorded a realized
loss of $8,602,000, resulting in a carrying value of $398,000 at September 30,
1999. While the Company does not intend to sell its Affiliated common stock in
the foreseeable future, there can be no assurance that the Company would be able
to realize the recorded value of the Affiliated common stock.

EMPLOYEE RELATIONS

The Company employs 244 people, none of whom are represented by any collective
bargaining organizations. The Company has had no work stoppages, slow downs or
strikes. On July 1, 1997, the Company implemented an employee directed 401K
plan.

Management considers its employee relations to be satisfactory.

COMPETITION

All of the Company's business segments operate in a highly competitive
environment. The Company competes on the basis of price, service, and quality.
In addition, each of the respective business systems faces special competitive
factors. In all phases of operations, the Company encounters strong competition
from a number of companies, including some companies with significantly greater
resources than the Company. Many of these larger competitors possess and employ
financial and personnel resources substantially in excess of those which are
available to the Company. The Company's Texas Petroleum Marketing Segment, Texas
Convenience Store Segment and Louisiana Operations Segment also compete with
integrated oil companies which, in some cases, own or control a majority of
their Petroleum Marketing facilities or convenience store locations. These major
oil companies may offer their products to the Company's competitors on more
favorable terms than those available to the Company from its suppliers. A
significant number of companies, including integrated oil companies and
petroleum products distribution companies, distribute petroleum products through
a larger number of facilities than the Company.

The convenience store industry is a retail service-oriented industry. It is
distinguished from other retail businesses by its emphasis on location and
convenience rather than price, and a commitment to customers who need to
purchase items quickly at extended hours. Convenience stores feature a wide
variety of items including groceries, dairy products, tobacco products,
beverages, and health and beauty aids. Many sell petroleum on a self-service
basis. Stores are generally designed with ample customer parking and quick
checkout procedures to maximize convenience as well as encourage impulse buying
of high margin items.

The convenience store industry is highly competitive, fragmented, and
regionalized. It is characterized by a few large companies and many small
independent companies. Several competitors are substantially larger and have
greater resources than the Company. The Company's primary competitors include
Diamond Shamrock, RaceTrac, Thomas Petroleum, and E-Z Mart. The Company also
competes with other convenience stores, small supermarkets, grocery stores, and
major and independent gasoline distributors who have converted units to
convenience stores.

EDCO Environmental is a full service environmental company. In the past, the
remediation industry was not highly competitive, but increasingly companies are
entering the environmental business. Management of EDCO Environmental
anticipates that the business will become increasingly competitive in the years
ahead.

The remediation industry is characterized by a few large companies, some medium
sized companies such as EDCO Environmental, and many small independent
companies. Some competitors are larger and have greater resources than EDCO
Environmental. EDCO Environmental competes primarily with engineering firms and
private contractors in addition to other environmental remediation companies.

The continued growth in the remediation service is dependent upon market
penetration, customer base, government regulations, funding, and legislative
changes. EDCO Environmental's growth in underground storage tank upgrading
depends upon its ability to

                                     Page 7
<PAGE>
work efficiently, meet price competition, and will be adversely affected by
restrictions upon reimbursements by the Texas Natural Resource Conservation
Commission (See "Business," "EDCO Environmental Systems, Inc.").

ITEM 2. PROPERTIES

The Company has extensive real estate interests in Texas and Louisiana. The
Company owns 24 convenience stores with gasoline installations in Texas and
Louisiana, and rents or leases another 25 convenience stores under varying
terms.

In July 1999, The Company vacated its former general office facility, which was
located in a 10,300 square foot, free-standing building located on a 15-acre
tract with 400 feet of frontage along Highway 60 North in Bay City, Texas. The
former general office facility has been listed for sale. EDCO Environmental's
facilities include a 19,200 square foot shop, fabrication, and maintenance
building adjacent to the administration building.

The Company relocated its general offices into space in its additional office
and administrative operations (5,985 square feet) and 7,490 square foot
warehouse together with 14,784 square feet of additional warehouse buildings,
located on 3 acres of land approximately 1/2 mile north of the general offices
on Highway 60. Bulk storage equipment, including 14 fuel storage tanks and 20
lube oil and antifreeze tanks, are located adjacent to the warehouses

ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

A purported class action lawsuit has been filed in the Southern District of
Texas against the Company and several of its current and former officers and
directors on behalf of purchasers of the Company's common stock. The lawsuit
asserts that the defendants violated federal securities laws by issuing
allegedly false and misleading statements in 1997, 1998 and 1999 about the
Company's financial condition and results of operations. The lawsuit demands,
among other relief, unspecified compensatory damages, attorney's fees and costs
of conducting the litigation. It is not possible, at this time, to predict the
impact that the lawsuit may have upon the Company, nor is it possible to predict
whether any other suits or claims may arise out of these matters in the future.
It is reasonable possible, however, that the outcome of any present or future
litigation may have a material adverse impact on the Company's financial
condition or results of operations in one or more future periods. The Company
intends to defend itself vigorously in these matters. See Note 15 to the
Consolidated Financial Statements, included herein.

The Company is also subject to litigation, primarily as a result of customer
claims, in the ordinary conduct of its operations. In the opinion of management,
there are no legal proceedings other than discussed above which, by themselves
or in the aggregate could be expected to have a material adverse effect on the
consolidated financial position of the Company.

        MATTERS

STOCK INFORMATION

Traded On the National Market System -- The Company's Common Stock, $.01 par
value, is listed on the NASDAQ exchange under the Symbol "EVSI." At September
30, 1999, there were approximately 1,028 shareholders of record. The Company has
not paid any cash dividends, and the Company currently has no plans to adopt a
regular cash dividend.

The Company has received notification from the Nasdaq stock exchange that it is
not in compliance with two requirements for continued listing on the Nasdaq NMS:
the Company did not hold an annual stockholder meeting in 1998, and the market
value of the public float in the Company's common stock did not meet or exceed a
minimum level of $5 million. The Company has scheduled a hearing on such matters
with Nasdaq on January 14, 2000.

                                     Page 8
<PAGE>
The aggregate market value of the Company's voting stock held by non-affiliates
was approximately $6.3 million on January 10, 2000. Furthermore, the Company has
previously announced that it intends to hold an annual shareholder meeting on
February 28, 2000. There can be no assurance, however, that the Company will
prevail at the hearing. The Company's ability to raise additional equity capital
in the future could be adversely affected if the Company's common stock were no
longer listed on a national exchange. The high and low price range for the last
two years, based on the closing sales price as reported by NASDAQ, is listed
below:

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
        OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion of the Company's financial condition and results of
operations should be read in conjunction with the historical financial
statements and notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this document.

After sustaining losses during 1997, in early fiscal 1998 the management of ESI
developed and began to implement its turnaround strategy. Among other things,
the strategy included a decision to refocus the Company on its "core" business
segments: petroleum marketing and convenience store operations. Within these
"core" segments, the Company sold or closed lower-volume outlets. The Company
also took actions, including the elimination of nonessential corporate staff, to
reduce overhead expenses.

In February 1998, ESI discontinued operations in the packaging and marketing of
automotive after-market chemical products, previously operated through its
wholly-owned subsidiary, ChemWay Systems, Inc. ("ChemWay"). In December 1998,
the Company sold ChemWay to Affiliated in a stock-for-stock transaction. See
"ChemWay" below. In exchange for the common stock of ChemWay, the Company
received 1,500,000 shares of Affiliated common stock. The number of shares of
Affiliated common stock became subject to a "make whole" provision whereby the
Company became entitled to receive an additional 1,000,000 shares of Affiliated
common stock on December 30, 1999. The Affiliated common stock is unregistered,
however the Company has demand registration rights with respect to the stock.

                                     Page 10
<PAGE>
Affiliated common stock is currently quoted on the Nasdaq Over-the-Counter
Bulletin Board. In accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, the
Affiliated common stock received in exchange for the common stock of ChemWay was
valued at its "fair value" indicated by the bid price of $6.00 per share, as
quoted on the Nasdaq Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board, which resulted in a gain
of $3,973,000, net of a provision for income taxes of $1,203,000.

The Company's investment in Affiliated common stock is illiquid; in addition,
the average trading volume of Affiliated is small in comparison to the number of
shares held by the Company. The trading price of Affiliated stock has been
volatile, ranging from a reported low closing price in the quarter ended June
30, 1998 of $0.88 to a closing price of $6.00 at December 31, 1998 and a closing
price of $0.265 at September 30, 1999.

At December 31, 1998, Affiliated reported, in its Annual Report on Form 10-KSB,
an accumulated deficit of $7,630,070 based on historic losses, and a negative
working capital balance of $912,605. Affiliated reported no revenues from
operations during the last six months of 1998, and reported a loss from
operations of $526,843. In its Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended
December 31, 1998, Affiliated's management stated:
        MANAGEMENT BELIEVES THAT CURRENT DISCUSSIONS WITH INVESTORS WILL YIELD
        SUFFICIENT ADDITIONAL CAPITAL TO CONTINUE ITS ACQUISITION STRATEGY AND
        TO FUND FUTURE OPERATIONS, AND THAT THESE ACQUISITIONS WILL GENERATE
        SUFFICIENT REVENUES TO OPERATE INDEPENDENTLY AND PROVIDE AN ASSET BASE
        FOR CONTINUED GROWTH. THERE IS NO ASSURANCE, HOWEVER THAT THE COMPANY
        WILL BE SUCCESSFUL IN RAISING EQUITY AND CONTINUING AS A GOING CONCERN.
In its quarterly report on form 10-QSB, Affiliated reported revenues from
operations of $486,000, a net loss of $1.6 million, negative working capital of
$1.6 million, an accumulated deficit of $9.2 million and stockholders' equity of
$5.0 million.

Management does not believe that the stock price of Affiliated will increase in
the foreseeable future and has determined that its investment in Affiliated
common stock is permanently impaired and, accordingly, has recorded a realized
loss of $8,602,000, resulting in a carrying value of $398,000 at September 30,
1999. While the Company does not intend to sell its Affiliated common stock in
the foreseeable future, there can be no assurance that the Company would be able
to realize the recorded value of the Affiliated common stock.

On March 3, 1999, the Company announced that it had signed a letter of intent to
merge with Duke & Long Distributing Company, Inc., however such merger
discussions were terminated on April 16, 1999. In conjunction with the proposed
merger, the Company incurred legal and professional fees of $479,700, which are
included within General and Administrative expenses for the year ended September
30, 1999.

In April 1999, the Company announced that it believed that future opportunities
in the Texas Petroleum Marketing business was limited, and that it intended to
divest itself of the Texas Petroleum Marketing and Louisiana Operations segments
and reposition itself as a provider of e-commerce to the convenience store
industry. The Company announced, in May 1999, that it had signed a letter of
intent to acquire A-Free-Gift.Com, an internet marketing venture. The Company
and A-Free-Gift.Com were unable to reach final agreement on a definitive
purchase agreement, however, and the proposed acquisition was abandoned in
October 1999.

In December 1999, the Company signed an agreement to sell its Texas petroleum
marketing and convenience store operations to TSC Services, Inc., ("TSC") for
cash consideration of $12.7 million (the "TSC Transaction". TSC also agreed to
assume certain capital lease obligations which the Company estimates will total
approximately $0.9 million at the time of closing. In addition, TSC will acquire
the Company's inventories in the Texas petroleum marketing and Texas convenience
store segments at the Company's cost, estimated by management at approximately
$2.4 million. The sale has been approved by the Board of Directors and is
subject to approval by the Company's shareholders. Terms of the agreement call
for the sale of substantially all of the property and equipment and inventories
in the Texas petroleum marketing and Texas convenience store segments. See Note
2 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included herein.

The Company has also announced that it is presently negotiating with potential
merger partners.

                              RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

1999 COMPARED WITH 1998

Consolidated revenues from continuing operations declined $16,841,000 or
approximately 16.18% to $87,273,000 in the year ended September 30, 1999. The
decline, primarily in the Texas Petroleum Marketing segment, is primarily due to
the closing of

                                     Page 11
<PAGE>
underperforming or low volume locations and to the lower fuel prices which
prevailed during the current year period. See segment discussions, below.

Consolidated gross profit from continuing operations declined $2,014,000 or
approximately 14.5% to $11,854,000 in the year ended September 30, 1999. Gross
profit expressed as a percentage of revenues ("Gross Margin") increased to
approximately 13.6% of sales in 1999 from approximately 13.3% of sales in 1998.
Gross Margin improved in the Texas Petroleum Marketing and EDCO Environmental
segments, and declined in the Texas Convenience Stores and Louisiana Operations
segments in 1999, as compared with 1998. The decline in gross profit in 1999 is
due to reduced revenues in the current year, partially offset by higher Gross
Margins which prevailed in 1999. See segment discussions, below.

Consolidated operating expenses of continuing operations declined $2,628,000 or
approximately 14.7% in 1999 to $15,234,000. Operating expenses declined in each
of the Company's segments in 1999, as compared with 1998. The decline in
operating expenses is due to the closing of underperforming locations and to a
general reduction in staff which occurred in 1999.

Consolidated operating losses of continuing operations declined $614,000 or
approximately 15.4% to $3,380,000 in 1999 as compared with a loss of $3,994,000
in 1998. The reduced operating loss is due to reduced operating expenses in
1999, partially offset by reduced gross profits.

Consolidated net loss of $9,333,000 in 1999 includes the loss on impairment of
the Company's investment in Affiliated common stock of $8,602,000, partially
offset by a gain on sale of ChemWay of $3,973,000, net of income taxes. General
and administrative expenses in 1999 included a non-cash charge of $404,000 to
compensation expense, as a result of the application of Accounting Principles
Board Option No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees," with respect to
the vesting of certain incentive stock options which had previously been awarded
to employees. 1999 expenses also includes a noncash charge of $61,000,
representing the market value of the Company's common stock contributed to the
Company's 401-K employee benefit plan, nonrecurring legal and professional fees
of $480,000 arising from the proposed merger with Duke & Long Distributing
Company, and legal and professional fees of $339,000 arising from a number of
matters, including the restatement of the Company's previously reported
financial statements, the negotiation of the purchase agreement with
A-Free-Gift.Com, and the refinancing of the Company's senior debt.

General and administrative expenses in 1998 included non-cash compensation
expense of $1,133,000 arising from the vesting of certain incentive stock
options which had previously been awarded to employees. Adjusting 1999 and 1998
for the $1,284,000 and $1,133,000 in non-cash and nonrecurring expenses,
respectively, and adjusting for the non-cash gain on sale of ChemWay and
subsequent loss on impairment in marketable securities, adjusted net loss in
1999 of $3,420,000 declined $900,000 from an adjusted net loss of $4,320,000 in
1998.

TEXAS PETROLEUM MARKETING SEGMENT

Under regulations issued by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency ("EPA"),
all underground storage tanks in the State of Texas were required to meet
certain standards of protection as of December 22, 1998. During 1998, the
Company evaluated the revenues generated by its Special Purpose Lease accounts,
and determined that it could not justify further investment at approximately 46
of such locations. Accordingly, management decided to either sell or close those
identified lower-volume Special Purpose Lease facilities. As of September 30,
1998, the Company sold its investment at 23 of the lower-volume Special Purpose
Lease accounts, and has subsequently sold the equipment at seven additional
sites. Additionally, the Company has discontinued the delivery of motor fuels,
and has removed the underground storage tanks at 16 Special Purpose Lease sites.
The Special Purpose Lease locations where the Company sold its investment in
equipment are now served by the Company as Open Dealers.

The effect of the conversion of Special Purpose Lease customers into Open
Dealers is to increase the Company's sales revenues with reduced gross margin,
working capital requirements, and capital investment, resulting in an improved
return on investment. Since the Company's margins on Open Dealer accounts are
contractually fixed, however, the Texas Petroleum Marketing Segment's gross
margins may be less volatile in the future, as a larger percentage of the
segment's business will be at fixed margins.


On May 21, 1999, the company closed its bulk storage facility and office in El
Campo, Texas and eliminated 35% of its staff in the Texas Petroleum Marketing
segment. The company also sold its Bay City Tire Store on May 3, 1999. On June
30, 1999, the Company sold its Fuelman fleet card franchise to a competitor.

                                     Page 12
<PAGE>
Sales in the Texas Petroleum Marketing Segment declined $14,294,000 or
approximately 22.2% to $50,164,000 in 1999, as compared with $64,458,000 in
1998. Sales in gallons declined to 44,441,000 gallons in 1999 from 60,158,000
gallons in 1998, a decline of approximately 26.13%. Average sellling price per
gallon increased in 1999 to approximately $1.13 per gallon, as compared with
$1.07 per gallon in 1998. The increase is due to the conversion of Special
Purpose Lease customers into Open Dealers during late 1998 and early 1999.
Although the Company realizes a higher average selling price per gallon, the
Company's gross profit per gallon on sales to Open Dealers can be significantly
lower than on sales to Special Purpose Lease customers.

Gross Profit in 1999 declined to $4,401,000 from $5,461,000 in 1998, a decline
of $1,060,000 or approximately 19.4%. Gross Margin increased to approximately
8.77% of sales in 1999 from approximately 8.47% of sales in 1998.

Operating expenses in 1999 declined to $5,736,000 from $6,448,000 in 1998, a
decline of $712,000 or approximately 11.0%, primarily as a result of a general
reduction in staff.

Operating loss in 1999 increased to $1,335,000 from $987,000 in 1998, an
increase of $348,000 or approximately 35.3%, as a result of lower revenues and
gross profits in 1999, partially offset by reduced operating expenses in 1999.

TEXAS CONVENIENCE STORE SEGMENT

At September 30, 1999, the Company operated 17 convenience stores, featuring
self-service motor fuels and a variety of food and non-food merchandise. Eight
of the Company's convenience stores are co-branded with a nationally recognized
fast food franchised or licensed food service operation. The Company's stores
are located in smaller communities throughout the gulf coast region of Texas.

The Company closed two underperforming Texas convenience stores during 1999, one
of which was subsequently leased to an independent operator who also agreed to
purchase fuel from the Company as an Open Dealer.

Total sales declined $2,753,000 or approximately 10.7% in 1999 to $22,873,000
from $25,626,000 in 1998. Fuel sales in 1999 were $12,659,000 as compared with
$13,965,000 in 1997; fuel sales in gallons also declined in 1999, to 12,753,000
gallons as compared with 13,131,000 gallons in 1998. The decrease in fuel sales
revenues is due to the lower retail selling prices for fuels which prevailed
during 1999, and to fewer operating stores during the current year. Merchandise
sales decreased $1,184,000 to $9,599,000 as compared with $10,783,000 in 1998.
The decline in merchandise sales is primarily due to fewer operating stores
during 1999.

Gross profit declined to $4,768,000 in 1999 as compared with $5,615,000 in 1998.
Gross Margin in the Texas Convenience Store segment declined in 1999 to
approximately 20.85% as compared with approximately 21.91% in 1998. Merchandise
Gross Margin increased in 1999, to approximately 32.08% of sales, as compared to
approximately 31.18% of sales in 1998. Fuel Gross Margin, however, decreased to
approximately 8.74% during 1999, as compared with approximately 10.0% during
1998.

Operating expenses during 1999 in the Texas Convenience Store segment was
$4,802,000 as compared with $6,158,000 in 1998, a decrease of $1,356,000 or
approximately 22.0%. The decline in operating expenses is principally
attributable to the closing of 2 underperforming stores during 1999, and to an
overall reduction in staff during late 1998.

The Convenience Store segment incurred an operating loss of $34,000 in 1999, as
compared with a loss of $543,000 in 1998. The reduced loss is due to reduced
operating expenses during the current year, partially offset by reduced sales
and resulting gross profits.

LOUISIANA OPERATIONS SEGMENT

At September 30, 1999 Louisiana operations are comprised of a fuel bulk storage
facility and distribution center, one full-service station without a convenience
store, and seven convenience stores, located in and around Lake Charles,
Louisiana.


Sales declined $184,000 or approximately 1.4% to $12,694,000 in 1999 from
$12,878,000 in 1998. Sales of fuels and other refined petroleum products
declined $343,000 or approximately 3.4% to $9,671,000 in 1999 as compared with
$10,014,000 in 1998. Convenience store merchandise sales increased $176,000 in
1999, or approximately 6.5%, to $2,882,000 as compared with $2,706,000 in 1998.

                                     Page 13
<PAGE>
Gross profits declined $387,000 or approximately 17.9% in 1999, to $1,778,000 as
compared with $2,165,000 in 1998. Gross Margin declined to approximately 14.0%
of sales in 1999, as compared with approximately 16.8% of sales in 1998. Gross
Margin on fuel sales declined to approximately 9.3% of sales in 1999, as
compared with approximately 11.8% of sales in 1998, primarily due to the
competitive retail fuel pricing which prevailed in the Louisiana market area in
1999. Merchandise Gross Margin in 1999 declined to approximately 23.5% of sales,
as compared to approximately 27.3% of sales in 1998. The Company generally
reduced its merchandise retail pricing in 1999 to meet competition.

Operating expenses in 1999 were $2,112,000, a reduction of $141,000 or
approximately 6.3% as compared to 1998. The reduction in operating expenses
primarily reflects a reduction in staff which was implemented in 1999.

Operating loss in 1999 increased to $334,000, as compared with a loss of $88,000
in 1998. The increased loss in 1999 is attributable to lower sales and resultant
gross profits in 1999, partially offset by reduced operating expenses.

EDCO ENVIRONMENTAL SEGMENT

EDCO Environmental reported an operating profit of $177,000 in the year ended
September 30, 1999, as compared with an operating loss of $81,000, primarily due
to increased sales revenues and resultant gross profits. The work performed in
conjunction with bringing sites into compliance with the December 22, 1998 EPA
requirements is substantially complete. EDCO Environmental will continue to
focus its attention on environmental remediation projects which have been
pre-approved for reimbursement by the Texas Natural Resource Conservation
Commissions' ("TNRCC") fund, or by private insurers. Management believes that
such opportunities will continue to exist, however there can be no assurance
that they will do so.

GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES

General and administrative expenses declined $441,000 in 1999, to $1,854,000 as
compared with $2,295,000 in 1998. General and administrative expenses in 1999
included a non-cash charge of $404,000 to compensation expense, as a result of
the application of Accounting Principles Board Option No. 25, "Accounting for
Stock Issued to Employees," with respect to the vesting of certain incentive
stock options which had previously been awarded to employees. 1999 expenses also
includes a noncash charge of $61,000, representing the market value of the
Company's common stock contributed to the Company's 401-K employee benefit plan,
nonrecurring legal and professional fees of $480,000 arising from the proposed
merger with Duke & Long Distributing Company, and legal and professional fees of
$339,000 arising from a number of matters, including the restatement of the
Company's previously reported financial statements, the negotiation of the
purchase agreement with A-Free-Gift.Com, and the refinancing of the Company's
senior debt.

General and administrative expenses in 1998 included non-cash compensation
expense of $1,133,000 arising from the vesting of certain incentive stock
options which had previously been awarded to employees. Adjusting 1999 and 1998
for the $1,284,000 and $1,133,000 in non-cash and nonrecurring expenses,
respectively, adjusted general and administrative expenses in 1999 of $570,000
declined $592,000 or approximately 51.0% as compared with adjusted expenses of
$1,162,000 in 1998. The reduction in ongoing general and administrative expenses
is due to the Company's expense reduction programs implemented in late 1998 and
throughout 1999.

1998 COMPARED WITH 1997

Consolidated sales revenues from continuing operations declined to $104,114,000
in 1998, from $137,996,000 in 1997, a decline of $33,882,000 or approximately
24.6%. During 1998, the Company implemented its turnaround strategy to
rationalize its base of stores and customers, which resulted in sales declines
in each of the Company's business segments. Sales revenues also declined as a
result of the lower overall pricing levels for petroleum products which
prevailed during 1998, as compared with 1997. Additionally, sales of fuels
through the Company's terminal facility declined $8,568,000 during 1998 as a
result of the termination of the Company's supply agreement for such facility.
See segment discussions, below.


Gross profit in 1998 was $13,868,000 as compared with $14,765,000 in 1997, a
decline of $897,000 or approximately 6.1%. Gross Margin however, increased to
approximately 13.3% of sales in 1998 as compared with approximately 10.7% of
sales in 1997. The improved Gross Margin is principally attributable to the
closing of unprofitable stores and improved management of the Company's daily
pricing of fuels.

                                     Page 14

<PAGE>
Operating expenses in 1998 were $17,862,000, as compared with $18,447,000 in
1997, a decrease of $585,000 or approximately 3.2%. Operating expenses in 1998
include a noncash charge of $1,133,000 in compensation expense, as a result of
the application of APB25 with respect to certain incentive stock options which
had previously been awarded to employees. Fiscal 1997 included a provision for
loss on marketable securities of $497,000 and a write-down of other assets of
approximately $818,000. The decline in operating expenses in 1998, as compared
with 1997, is primarily due to the closing of underperforming convenience
stores, and to an overall staff reduction.

Consolidated operating losses from continuing operations increased $312,000;
operating losses on continuing operations were $3,994,000 in 1998 as compared
with $3,682,000 in 1997. As noted above, fiscal 1998 results included a non-cash
charge of $1,133,000. Adjusted for the effect of the noncash compensation
expense charge, operating losses from continuing operations declined $821,000.
The Texas Convenience Store segment, Louisiana Operations and EDCO Environmental
segment improved during 1998, however the improvement was offset by higher
losses in the Texas Petroleum Marketing segment, due to reduced sales revenues,
the $1,133,000 non-cash compensation expense charges, the effect of which was
partially offset by an improved Gross Margin.

The Company incurred net losses of $5,453,000 and $4,804,000 for fiscal years
ended September 30, 1998 and September 30, 1997, respectively. Losses from
continuing operations were $4,605,000 and $3,458,000 in fiscal years 1998 and
1997, respectively. The net loss for 1998 included an increase in the deferred
tax asset valuation allowance of $782,000 and, as described above, non-cash
charges of $1,133,000.

TEXAS PETROLEUM MARKETING SEGMENT

The Texas Petroleum Marketing segment's sales revenues declined $28,019,000 to
$64,458,000 in 1998, as compared with $92,477,000 in 1997, a decline of
approximately 30.3%. Fuel sales in gallons was 60,158,000 in 1998, as compared
with 84,053,000 gallons in 1997, a decrease of approximately 28.4%. The Texas
Petroleum Marketing segment distributes to its motor fuel customers both
directly from refinery racks, and through the Company's bulk plant facilities.
The Company, through its wholly- owned subsidiary Way Energy also has a 110,000
barrel terminal facility, located in Bay City, Texas, from which it has
historically distributed motor fuels to the southeast Texas market. During the
first quarter of 1998, the Company's supply agreement with the primary fuel
supplier to the Bay City terminal facility was terminated. The loss of the fuel
supply agreement had an adverse effect upon the Texas Petroleum Marketing
segment's performance during 1998: the Company was unable to sell fuels through
its exchange agreements with other major oil companies. Way Energy's sales
during 1998 were $3,826,000 as compared with $12,394,000 in 1997, a decline of
$8,568,000 or approximately 69%.

Under regulations issued by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency ("EPA"),
all underground storage tanks in the State of Texas were required to meet
certain standards of protection as of December 22, 1998. During 1998, the
Company evaluated the revenues generated by its Special Purpose Lease accounts,
and determined that it could not justify further investment at approximately 46
of such locations. Accordingly, management decided to either sell or close those
identified lower-volume Special Purpose Lease facilities. As of September 30,
1998, the Company sold its investment at 23 of the lower-volume Special Purpose
Lease accounts, and has subsequently sold the equipment at seven additional
sites. Additionally, the Company has discontinued the delivery of motor fuels,
and has removed the underground storage tanks at 16 Special Purpose Lease sites.
The Special Purpose Lease locations where the Company sold its investment in
equipment are now served by the Company as Open Dealers. See "Environmental
Issues," in Section 1, Business, included herein.

The effect of the conversion of Special Purpose Lease customers into Open
Dealers is to increase the Company's sales revenues with reduced Gross Margins,
working capital requirements, and reduced capital investment, resulting in
improved return on investment. Since the Company's margins on Open Dealer
accounts are contractually fixed, however, the Texas Petroleum Marketing
Segment's gross margins may be less volatile in the future, as a larger
percentage of the segment's business will be at fixed margins.

Gross profit in the Texas Petroleum Marketing Segment was $5,461,000 in 1998, as
compared with $6,634,000 in 1997, a decline of $1,173,000 or approximately
17.7%. Gross Margin, however, improved in 1998, to approximately 8.5% of sales
as compared with approximately 7.2% in 1997. The improvement in Gross Margin is
principally attributable to a higher gross profit earned per gallon, divided by
the lower selling prices which prevailed during 1998, as compared with 1997.
Gross profit per gallon sold increased in 1998, to approximately $0.091, as
compared to $0.079 in 1997, due to improved management of the Company's daily
pricing of fuels.

Operating expenses in the Texas Petroleum Marketing Segment were $6,448,000 in
1998, as compared with $7,500,000 in 1997, a decrease of $1,052,000 or
approximately 14.0%, reflecting management's cost reduction programs implemented
during 1998.

                                     Page 15
<PAGE>
Operating loss of the Texas Petroleum Marketing Segment increased to $987,000 in
1998 as compared with $866,000 in 1997. The increased loss is primarily due to
the lower sales revenues and resultant gross profit, partially offset by reduced
operating, discussed above.

TEXAS CONVENIENCE STORE SEGMENT

Sales in the Texas Convenience Store segment were $25,626,000 in 1998, as
compared with $29,351,000 in 1997, a decline of approximately 13%. During 1998,
however, the company closed and sold seven underperforming stores, and
subsequently sold two additional stores during December 1998. Fuel sales in 1998
were $13,965,000 as compared with $16,911,000 in 1997; fuel sales in gallons
also declined in 1998, to 13,131,000 gallons as compared with 14,831,000 gallons
in 1997. The decrease in fuel sales revenues is due to the lower retail selling
prices for fuels which prevailed during 1998, and to fewer operating stores
during the current year. Merchandise sales decreased $800,000 to $10,783,000 as
compared with $11,583,000 in 1997. The decline in merchandise sales is primarily
due to fewer operating stores during 1998.

Gross profit declined to $5,615,000 in 1998 as compared with $5,980,000 in 1997.
Gross Margin in the Convenience Store segment improved during 1998, however, to
approximately 21.9% as compared with approximately 20.3% in 1997. Merchandise
Gross Margin increased to approximately 31.2% of sales in 1998, as compared with
approximately 28.7% of sales in 1997. Fuel Gross Margin, however, declined to
approximately 10.0% during 1998, as compared with approximately 10.6% of sales
during 1997.

The improvement in overall Gross Margin is partially due to the fact that
merchandise sales represented a higher percentage of the stores' total sales
during 1998 than in 1997; merchandise sales were approximately 42.1% of total
sales during 1998 as compared with approximately 39.5% during 1997. In addition
to closing seven underperforming stores during 1998, the Company began pricing
its fuel more aggressively in order to maintain customer traffic, and generate
additional higher-margin merchandise sales.

Operating expenses during 1998 in the Texas Convenience Store segment were
$6,158,000 as compared with $6,785,000 in 1997, a decrease of $627,000 or
approximately 9.2%. The decline in operating expenses is principally
attributable to the closing of seven underperforming stores during 1998, and to
an overall reduction in staff during 1998.

The Texas Convenience Store segment incurred an operating loss of $543,000 in
1998, as compared with a loss of $805,000 in 1997. The reduced loss is due to
reduced operating expenses during the current year, partially offset by reduced
sales and resulting gross profits.

LOUISIANA OPERATIONS

The Company closed four underperforming stores in 1998, completing the year with
seven stores at September 30, 1998, as compared with 11 stores at September 30,
1997.

Sales in 1998 declined $1,970,000 to $12,878,000, as compared with sales of
$14,848,000 in 1997, primarily as a result of the fewer number of stores in
operation during 1998. Fuel sales in gallons were 11,320,000 in 1998,as compared
with 11,082,000 gallons in 1997. Fuel sales in 1998 declined $1,429,000 to
$9,719,000 , as compared with fuel sales of $11,148,000 in 1997, the decline is
also attributable lower fuel pricing which prevailed in 1998. Merchandise sales
declined $533,000, to $2,706,000 in 1998, as compared with $3,239,000 in 1997.


Gross profit in 1998 increased $380,000, to $2,165,000, as compared with
$1,785,000 in 1997. Gross Margin increased to approximately 16.8% of sales in
1998, as compared with approximately 12.0% of sales in 1997. Fuel gross profits
increased to $1,143,000 in 1998, as compared with $619,000 in 1997. Fuel Gross
Margin increased to approximately 11.7% of sales in 1998, as compared with
approximately 5.5% of sales in 1997. Merchandise gross profit decreased to
$740,000 in 1998, as compared with $932,000 in 1997. Merchandise Gross Margin
decreased, however, to approximately 27.3% of sales in 1998, as compared with
approximately 28.8% of sales in 1997.

Operating expenses decreased $317,000 in 1998, to $2,253,000, as compared with
$2,570,000 in 1997. The decrease is due to the closing of four underperforming
stores during 1998, and to a staff reduction which was implemented in December
1997.

                                     Page 16
<PAGE>
The Louisiana segment incurred an operating loss of $88,000, as compared with an
operating loss of $785,000 in 1997. The decreased loss is due to the lower
operating expenses and higher gross profits in 1998 as compared with 1997.
EDCO ENVIRONMENTAL

The management of EDCO Environmental focused its attention on increasing sales
of environmental services, and reducing operating expenses. Sales were
$1,152,000 in 1998, as compared with $1,320,000 in 1997, a decrease of $168,000
or approximately 12.7%. Gross profit was $627,000 in 1998, an increase of
$261,000 from 1997. Gross Margin improved to approximately 54.4% of sales in
1998, as compared with approximately 27.7% of sales during 1997. The improved
Gross Margin is primarily attributable to management's decision to discontinue
low-margin construction operations at year-end 1997.

Operating expenses at EDCO Environmental decreased $57,000 in 1998, to $708,000
as compared with $765,000 in 1997, a decrease of approximately 7.5%. The
decrease is due to increased management emphasis on expense control, and staff
reductions.

EDCO Environmental incurred an operating loss of $81,000 in 1998, as compared
with an operating loss of $399,000 in 1997. The improvement is due to the higher
Gross Margin and reduced operating expenses during 1998.

CHEMWAY (DISCONTINUED MARCH 31, 1998; SOLD DECEMBER 30, 1998)

Production activities at the ChemWay facility ceased in February 1998, and the
ChemWay segment was classified as a discontinued operation as of March 31, 1998.
Sales in the ChemWay segment were $2,268,000 in 1998, as compared with
$10,967,000 in 1997, a decline of $8,699,000 or approximately 79.3%. Gross
Margin in the ChemWay facility was approximately 3.1% of sales during 1998, as
compared with approximately 9.8% in 1997. During 1998, the Company liquidated
much of ChemWay's inventories, sometimes at prices at or below cost. Operating
expenses at ChemWay were $1,744,000 in 1998, as compared with $2,909,000 in
1997, reflecting the cessation of production activities in February 1998.
Operating losses at ChemWay were $1,694,000 in 1998 as compared with $1,831,000
in 1997, reflecting the reductions in operating expenses during the current
fiscal year, partially offset by lower sales and reduced Gross Margins.

GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES

The Company's general and administrative expenses increased $1,468,000 to
$2,295,000 in 1998, as compared with $827,000 in 1997. Operating expenses in
1998 include a noncash charge of $1,133,000 in compensation expense, as a result
of the application of APB25 with respect to certain incentive stock options
which had previously been awarded to employees.

                         CAPITAL RESOURCES AND LIQUIDITY

On March 31, 1999, the Company closed on an amendment to its credit agreement
with one of its bank lenders (the "Refinancing"), pursuant to which the bank (i)
waived all previous and continuing covenant defaults; (ii) extended the maturity
of its loan balance to January 31, 2001; and (iii) assumed the amounts
outstanding under the other bank lender's loans under their current terms and
conditions. Under the terms of the Refinancing, such bank lender received a
first lien position on certain assets of the Company, more specifically,
inventories, accounts receivable, convenience store real estate and equipment.
The effect of the Refinancing was to cure all outstanding defaults in the
Company's credit agreements, and to extend the final maturity to January 31,
2001, however the Refinancing does not provide any additional borrowing capacity
or liquidity for the Company, and the Company has no available borrowing
capacity at this time. The Refinancing contains financial covenant obligations,
including minimum net worth, minimum earnings before interest, taxes and
depreciation ("EBITDA"), working capital ratio and fixed charge coverage ratio,
all as defined within the loan documents. The Company was not in compliance with
the minimum net worth, fixed charge coverage ratio, and working capital ratio
financial covenants at September 30, 1999, however the bank has waived such
covenant defaults through December 31, 1999. Since there is no assurance that
the Company can comply with the covenants subsequent to December 31, 1999, nor
has the bank waived or amended such covenants past December 31, 1999, all of the
debt due to the bank has been classified as current at September 30, 1999.

See Note 6 to the Consolidated Financial Statements, included herein. Management
intends to repay the existing bank debt with proceeds from the TSC Transaction,
or alternatively, to replace the existing bank debt with new financing,
discussed below, which would have the effect of increasing the availability of
working capital, however there can be no assurance that it will be able to do
so.

Furthermore, covenants in the Company's loan agreement (i) limit the Company's
ability to make capital expenditures to the greater of $1,000,000 or 25% of
EBITDA, (ii) prohibit the payment of cash dividends and (iii) limit the
Company's ability to incur additional indebtedness. Under the terms of the
Refinancing, interest is payable monthly at an annual rate of two percent above
the bank's

                                     Page 17
<PAGE>
established prime lending rate. In addition, the Company is obligated to make a
principal repayment of approximately $41,000 per month. Although the final
maturity date of the loan is January 31, 2001, since the loan was not repaid by
June 30, 1999, the Company became subject to a fee of $250,000, the payment of
which the bank agreed to defer until the earlier of February 28, 2000 or the
repayment of the loan; furthermore, the Company became obligated to pay
additional fees of $250,000 on August 31, 1999 and December 31, 1999 as the loan
obligations are not repaid by those respective dates. Interest expense in the
year ended September 30, 1999 includes $513,000, reflecting the payments which
were originally due June 30 and August 31, and accrued late charges thereon.

On July 21, 1999, the Company was notified that it had been approved for term
loans totaling $10 million by the United States Department of Agriculture Rural
Development Business and Industry Guaranteed Loan Program ("B&I Loan".) Proceeds
of the B&I Loan would be used to repay obligations owed under the Refinancing,
and to provide working capital. The closing of the B&I Loan is contingent upon,
among other things, the completion of environmental cleanup at several sites and
obtaining a new revolving credit facility in order to provide a minimum of $2.5
million in availability. The Company has received a commitment from its present
bank lender to provide revolving debt sufficient to meet the requirements of the
B&I Loan.

In December 1999, the Company reached agreement to sell its Texas petroleum
marketing and convenience store assets to TSC. Under the terms of the agreement,
TSC would make a cash payment to the Company of $12.7 million for the fixed
assets of the Texas petroleum marketing and convenience store segments. In
addition, TSC agreed to assume certain capital lease obligations of
approximately $0.9 million, and has agreed to purchase the segments' inventories
at the Company's cost, estimated by management at $2.4 million. The sale has
been approved by the Board of Directors and is subject to approval by the
Company's shareholders. Terms of the agreement call for the sale of
substantially all of the property and equipment and inventories in the Texas
petroleum marketing and Texas convenience store segments. Management believes
the TSC Transaction will close in late March 2000, and will provide sufficient
cash to repay the Company's existing bank debt, described above, although there
can be no assurance that the transaction will close. See Notes 2 and 3 to the
Consolidated Financial Statements, included herein.

In the event that the TSC Transaction does not close, the Company intends to
proceed with the B&I Loan. There can be no assurance that management's plans
will be successful. See Note 3 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included
herein.

Cash and cash equivalents were $992,000 and $831,000 at September 30, 1999 and
1998, respectively. Primarily as a result of the reclassification of certain
bank debt, the Company had a net working capital deficit of $9,723,000, as
compared with a deficit of $163,000 at September 30, 1998.

Cash used by operating activities was comparable at $618,000 and $611,000 in the
years ended September 30, 1999, and September 30, 1998, respectively.

The Company identified certain nonessential assets which it sold during the year
ended September 30, 1999; assets disposed of during the current fiscal year
included nonperforming convenience stores, the Company's investment in certain
of its Special Purpose Lease locations, the Company's tire center, and the
Company's Fuelman/Gascard franchise. The Company received proceeds of $1,606,000
from the sale of such assets during 1999. Cash provided by investing activities
was $965,000 in 1998, as compared with $179,000 cash provided by investing
activities during 1998.

In December 1998, the Company completed the sale of its ChemWay subsidiary, in a
stock-for-stock exchange with Affiliated. Although the Company did not receive
any cash consideration in the transaction, Affiliated agreed to repay
outstanding trade credit liabilities of ChemWay of approximately $2,100,000. The
Company received 1.5 million shares of common stock of Affiliated in exchange
for all of the common stock of ChemWay. The number of shares of Affiliated
common stock became subject to a "make whole" provision whereby the Company
became entitled to receive an additional 1,000,000 shares of Affiliated common
stock on December 30, 1999. The Company recorded a gain on the disposition of
ChemWay of $3,973,000, net of provision for income taxes of $1,203,000. In
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, the Affiliated common
stock received in exchange for the common stock of ChemWay was initially
recorded at its "fair value" of $6 per share, resulting in a carrying value of
$9 million. Subsequent to the exchange of ChemWay common stock for Affiliated
common stock, the Affiliated stock has declined in value to $0.265 per share at
September 30, 1999. Management does not believe that the stock price of
Affiliated will increase in the foreseeable future and has determined that its
investment in Affiliated common stock is permanently impaired and, accordingly,
has recorded a realized loss of $8,602,000 in the year ended September 30, 1999.

The Company's investment in Affiliated common stock is illiquid; in addition,
the average trading volume of Affiliated is small in

                                     Page 18
<PAGE>
comparison to the number of shares held by the Company. The trading price of
Affiliated stock has been volatile, ranging from a reported low closing price in
the quarter ended June 30, 1998 of $0.88 to a closing price of $6.00 at December
31, 1998 and a closing price of $0.265 at September 30, 1999.

At December 31, 1998, Affiliated reported, in its Annual Report on Form 10-KSB,
an accumulated deficit of $7,630,070 based on historic losses, and a negative
working capital balance of $912,605. Affiliated reported no revenues from
operations during the last six months of 1998, and reported a loss from
operations of $526,843. In its Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended
December 31, 1998, Affiliated's management stated:
        MANAGEMENT BELIEVES THAT CURRENT DISCUSSIONS WITH INVESTORS WILL YIELD
        SUFFICIENT ADDITIONAL CAPITAL TO CONTINUE ITS ACQUISITION STRATEGY AND
        TO FUND FUTURE OPERATIONS, AND THAT THESE ACQUISITIONS WILL GENERATE
        SUFFICIENT REVENUES TO OPERATE INDEPENDENTLY AND PROVIDE AN ASSET BASE
        FOR CONTINUED GROWTH. THERE IS NO ASSURANCE, HOWEVER THAT THE COMPANY
        WILL BE SUCCESSFUL IN RAISING EQUITY AND CONTINUING AS A GOING CONCERN.
In its quarterly report on form 10-QSB, Affiliated reported revenues from
operations of $486,000, a net loss of $1.6 million, negative working capital of
$1.6 million, an accumulated deficit of $9.2 million and stockholders' equity of
$5.0 million.

Management does not believe that the stock price of Affiliated will increase in
the foreseeable future and has determined that its investment in Affiliated
common stock is permanently impaired and, accordingly, has recorded a realized
loss of $8,602,000, resulting in a carrying value of $398,000 at September 30,
1999. While the Company does not intend to sell its Affiliated common stock in
the foreseeable future, there can be no assurance that the Company would be able
to realize the recorded value of the Affiliated common stock.

On June 1, 1998, the Company agreed to issue 350,000 common shares for total
consideration of $262,500 in a private placement to accredited investors. Such
shares were issued on October 27, 1998 and the Company received proceeds of
$131,250. The remaining proceeds of $131,250 were received in the quarter ended
June 30, 1999.

During the year ended September 30, 1999, the Company received proceeds of
$1,185,000, arising from the issuance of common stock.

A purported class action lawsuit has been filed against the Company and several
of its current and former officers and directors on behalf of purchasers of the
Company's common stock. The lawsuit asserts that the defendants violated federal
securities laws by issuing allegedly false and misleading statements in 1997,
1998 and 1999 about the Company's financial condition and results of operations.
The lawsuit demands, among other relief, unspecified compensatory damages,
attorney's fees and costs of conducting the litigation. It is not possible, at
this time, to predict the impact that the lawsuit may have upon the Company, nor
is it possible to predict whether any other suits or claims may arise out of
these matters in the future. It is reasonable possible, however, that the
outcome of any present or future litigation may have a material adverse impact
on the Company's financial condition or results of operations in one or more
future periods. The Company intends to defend itself vigorously in these
matters. See Note 15 to the Consolidated Financial Statements, included herein.

The Company has received notification from the Nasdaq stock exchange that it is
not in compliance with two requirements for continued listing on the Nasdaq NMS:
the Company did not hold an annual stockholder meeting in 1998, and the market
value of the public float in the Company's common stock did not meet or exceed a
minimum level of $5 million. The Company has scheduled a hearing on such matters
with Nasdaq on January 14, 2000.

The aggregate market value of the Company's voting stock held by non-affiliates
was approximately $6.3 million on January 10, 2000. Furthermore, the Company has
previously announced that it intends to hold an annual shareholder meeting on
February 28, 2000. There can be no assurance, however, that the Company will
prevail at the hearing. The Company's ability to raise additional equity capital
in the future could be adversely affected if the Company's common stock were no
longer listed on a national exchange. As a result of matters discussed above,
there is substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going
concern.

                                    YEAR 2000

As many computer systems and other equipment with embedded chips or processors
(collectively, "Business Systems") use only two digits to represent the year,
they may have been unable to process accurately certain data before, during or
after the year 2000. As a result, business and governmental entities were
perceived to be at risk for possible miscalculations or systems failures causing
disruptions in their business operations. This is commonly known as the Year
2000 ("Y2K") issue. The Y2K issue can arise at any

                                     Page 19
<PAGE>
point in the Company's supply, processing, distribution and financial systems.

The Company completed a Y2K readiness program with the objective of having all
of the Company's significant Business Systems functioning properly with respect
to the Y2K before January 1, 2000.

The first component of the Y2K readiness program was to identify the internal
Business Systems of the Company that are susceptible to system failures or
processing errors as a result of the Y2K issue.

The second component of the Y2K readiness program involved the actual
remediation and replacement of Business Systems. The Company primarily utilized
internal resources to complete this project. The Company substantially completed
all remediation and replacement of internal Business Systems by December 1999.
As part of the Y2K readiness program, significant service providers, vendors,
suppliers, customers and governmental entities ("Key Business Partners") that
are believed to be critical to business operations after January 1, 2000 were
identified and the Company surveyed its Key Business Partners in an attempt to
reasonably ascertain their stage of Y2K readiness.

The Company utilizes a limited number of Business Systems in the conduct of its
operations, however due to the significant number of Key Business Partners, the
Company believed that it could have experienced some disruption in its business
due to the Y2K problem. More specifically, the Company could have been
materially adversely affected if utilities, private businesses and governmental
entities with which it does business or that provide essential services were not
Y2K ready. The possible consequences of the Company or Key Business Partners not
being fully Y2K compliant by January 1, 2000 included, among other things,
delays in the delivery of products, delays in the receipt of supplies, invoice
and collection errors, and inventory and supply obsolescence. Consequently, the
business and results of operations of the Company could have been materially
adversely affected by a temporary inability of the Company to conduct its
business in the ordinary course for a period of time after January 1, 2000. The
Company has not experienced any significant disruptions or adverse effect as a
result of the Y2K problem. There can be no assurance, however, that the Company
will not experience any adverse effect or disruptions in the future.

Concurrently with the Y2K readiness measures described above, the Company
developed contingency plans intended to mitigate the possible disruption in
business operations that may result from the Y2K issue. Contingency plans
included developing interim manual processes to ensure the continued operation
of the businesses.

Since much of the Company's cost of its Y2K readiness program has been internal
resources, who are also involved in other duties related to the Company's
ongoing operations, the cost of the Y2K readiness program is not known, however
the Company does not believe that such costs were material. The costs were
expressed as they were incurred, and were substantially all funded through
operating cash flow.

THE ESTIMATES AND CONCLUSIONS HEREIN CONTAIN FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS AND ARE
BASED ON MANAGEMENT'S BEST ESTIMATES OF FUTURE EVENTS. RISKS TO COMPLETING THE
PLAN INCLUDE THE AVAILABILITY OF RESOURCES, OUR ABILITY TO DISCOVER AND CORRECT
THE POTENTIAL YEAR 2000 SENSITIVE PROBLEMS WHICH COULD HAVE A MATERIAL ADVERSE
EFFECT ON SPECIFIC FACILITIES, AND THE ABILITY OF KEY BUSINESS PARTNERS TO BRING
THEIR SYSTEMS INTO YEAR 2000 COMPLIANCE.

MEETINGS AND COMMITTEES OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS

During the fiscal year ended September 30, 1999 ("Fiscal 1999"), the Company's

(1)            The exercise price of the options granted is equal to the market
               value of the Company's Common Stock on the date of grant.

(2)            Potential realizable value of each grant assumes that the market
               prices of the underlying security appreciates at annualized rates
               of 5% and 10% over the term of the award. Actual gains, if any,
               on stock option exercises are dependent on the future performance
               of common stock. There can be no assurance that the amounts
               reflected on this table will be achieved.

Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, requires the
Company's officers and directors, and persons who own more than ten percent of a
registered class of the Company's equity securities, to file reports of
ownership and changes in ownership with the Securities and Exchange Commission
(the "Commission"). Officers, directors and greater than ten percent
shareholders are required by the Commission's regulations to furnish the Company
with copies of all Section 16(a) forms they file.

The Company believes, based solely on review of copies of such forms furnished
to the Company, or written representations that no Form 5's were required, that
all Section 16(a) filing requirements applicable to its officers, directors and
greater than ten percent beneficial owners were complied with during Fiscal
1998, except that each of Messrs. Dix and Goeggel inadvertently filed a Form 3
late.

ITEM 13. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS

During 1999, the Company leased three convenience store locations from Mr. J.L.
Evans, Sr., the largest shareholder of the Company. One ten-year lease commenced
in June 1987 with monthly lease payments of $2,500 and allows for one five-year
automatic renewal at the Company's option. One ten-year lease commenced in
December 1995 with monthly lease payments of $1,500 and allows for two five-year
automatic renewals at the Company's option. The other location was sold by Mr.
Evans in December 1998. The amounts paid under these leases were $54,300,
$76,800, and $73,000 for the years ended September 30, 1999, 1998 and 1997,
respectively. Future minimum lease commitments as of September 30, 1999 are
$9,500.

As of September 30, 1999, the Company rented on a month-to-month basis, five
convenience store locations from Mr. Evans. Previously, the Company rented
additional locations which were sold by Mr. Evans to unrelated parties. The
total month-to-month rent paid for the year ended September 30, 1998 was $34,800
and $104,000 for the year ended September 30, 1997. All five locations were sold
by Mr. Evans to unrelated parties in December 1997.

Other current assets at September 30, 1998 include a $111,000 note receivable
from a former director which was refinanced from an earlier note. The note was
paid in December 1998.

From time to time, the Company makes advances to individuals who are
shareholders, directors, officers and/or employees. Such advances are usually
unsecured and accrue interest at 9%. There were no advances outstanding at
September 30, 1999 and 1998.

                        REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS


To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of
Evans Systems, Inc.


In our opinion, the accompanying consolidated balance sheet and the related
consolidated statements of operations, cash flows and stockholders' equity and
comprehensive loss present fairly, in all material respects, the financial
position of Evans Systems, Inc. and its subsidiaries at September 30, 1999 and
1998, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the
three years in the period ended September 30, 1999, in conformity with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. These financial
statements are the responsibility of the Company's management; our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on
our audits. We conducted our audits of these statements in accordance with
auditing standards generally accepted in the United States which require that we
plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the
financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes
examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in
the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and
significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial
statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis
for the opinion expressed above.

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the
Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 3 to the
financial statements, the Company has suffered recurring losses from operations
and has a working capital deficiency that raise substantial doubt about its
ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans in regard to these
matters are also described in Note 3. The financial statements do not include
any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

1.    DESCRIPTION OF THE COMPANY AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

      BUSINESS OPERATIONS
      Evans Systems, Inc. and its subsidiaries (the Company) are engaged in
      petroleum marketing, convenience store operations and environmental
      remediation services.

      PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION
      The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Evans
      Systems, Inc. and its subsidiaries. All significant intercompany
      transactions have been eliminated.

      CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS
      For purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Company considers all
      highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less
      to be cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents are stated at cost which
      approximates fair market value.

      INVENTORIES
      Substantially all inventories are products held for sale. Inventories of
      oil and grease, automotive/chemical products, automotive accessories and
      convenience store products utilize the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method
      of accounting and are stated at the lower of cost or market. Gas and
      diesel fuels inventory is valued using the last-in, first-out (LIFO)
      method which resulted in inventory being $101,000 and $100,000 less at
      September 30, 1999 and 1998 than replacement cost. During 1999 inventory
      quantities were reduced. The reduction resulted in a liquidation of LIFO
      inventory quantities carried at lower costs prevailing in prior years, the
      effect of which decreased cost of sales by $77,000.

      PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT
      Property and equipment is stated at cost and is depreciated utilizing the
      straight-line method of computing depreciation over their estimated useful
      lives. The cost of assets retired and the related accumulated depreciation
      are removed from the accounts and any gain or loss is included in the
      results of operations when incurred. Repairs and maintenance are charged
      to expense as incurred. Expenditures for major additions and replacements
      which extend the lives of assets are capitalized and depreciated over
      their remaining estimated useful lives. The Company depreciates assets
      over the following estimated useful lives:

      Buildings                             15-41 years
      Leasehold improvements                Life of lease, up to 31
                                            years

      Equipment                             15 years
      Transportation equipment              5 years
      Office equipment                      5-7 years

      IMPAIRMENT OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS
      The Company periodically assesses the realizability of its long-lived
      assets and evaluates such assets for impairment whenever events or changes
      in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be
      recoverable. Asset impairment is determined to exist if estimated future
      cash flows, undiscounted and without interest charges, are less than the
      carrying amount.

      MARKETABLE SECURITIES
      The Company's investments classified as marketable securities are
      considered as "available for sale". Such securities are recorded at market
      value with unrealized gains and losses, net of income taxes, being
      recognized as a separate component of shareholders' equity. Any "other
      than temporary" impairments to the market value of the securities are
      recognized as expense during the period in which the impairment occurs.

      STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION PLANS
      The Company applies Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25,
      "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees" (APB 25) and related
      interpretations in accounting for its plans.

      INCOME TAXES
      The Company and its subsidiaries file a consolidated federal income tax
      return.

      The Company recognizes income tax expense based on the liability method of
      accounting for income taxes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are
      recognized for the income tax effect of temporary differences between the
      tax basis of assets and liabilities and their carrying values for
      financial reporting purposes. Deferred tax expense or benefit is the
      result of changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities during the
      period. The Company has recorded a valuation allowance to reflect the
      estimated amount of deferred tax assets which more likely than not will be
      unrealized.

      EARNINGS (LOSS) PER SHARE
      The Company reports both basic earnings per share, which is based on the
      weighted average number of common shares outstanding, and diluted earnings
      per share, which is based on the weighted average number of common shares
      as well as all potentially dilutive common shares outstanding. Stock
      options and warrants are the only potentially dilutive shares the Company
      has outstanding for the periods presented. Stock options and warrants were
      not included in the computation of diluted loss per common share for 1999,
      1998 and 1997 since they would have

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      resulted in an antidilutive effect on loss from continuing operations.

      FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
      The Company has various financial instruments, including cash, trade
      receivables, marketable securities, accounts payable, accrued expenses,
      revolving credit facilities and notes payable. The carrying values of
      cash, trade receivables, accounts payable, accrued expenses and notes
      payable approximates current fair value. Revolving credit facilities are
      at variable market rates.

      USE OF ESTIMATES
      The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
      accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
      assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at
      the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of revenues and
      expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from
      those estimates. Management believes that the estimates are reasonable.

      CONCENTRATIONS OF CREDIT RISK
      The Company performs periodic evaluations of the relative credit standing
      of the financial institutions and investment funds which are considered in
      the Company's investment strategy. A majority of the Company's trade
      receivables are from retail gasoline stations and convenience stores.
      Management believes that its credit and collection policies mitigate the
      potential effect of a concentration of credit risk in its accounts
      receivable.

2.    AGREEMENT TO SELL OPERATIONS

      The Company agreed in December 1999 to sell its Texas petroleum marketing
      and convenience store operations for cash of $12,675,000 plus the
      assumption of capital lease obligations approximating $900,000 and the
      cost of inventory on hand at the closing date, estimated to be $2,400,000
      also to be received in cash. The sale has been approved by the Board of
      Directors and is subject to approval by the Company's shareholders. Terms
      of the agreement call for the sale of substantially all of the property
      and equipment and inventories in the Texas petroleum marketing and Texas
      convenience store segments.

3.    RESULTS OF OPERATIONS, LIQUIDITY AND MANAGEMENT'S PLANS

      During the three years in the period ended September 30, 1999, the Company
      has recorded operating losses from continuing operations aggregating $11.1
      million and net losses aggregating $19.6 million. At September 30, 1999,
      the Company has a working capital deficit of $9.7 million and
      stockholders' equity of $4.1 million. In addition, the Company is in
      violation of

                                       F-9

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      various debt covenants for which default has been waived by the bank
      through December 31, 1999 (Note 6).

      As described in Note 2, the Company has agreed to sell a major portion of
      its operating assets and is considering liquidating its remaining
      operating assets. The Company plans to use the proceeds from the sale of
      these assets to retire debt and provide working capital. The Company has
      disclosed that it is presently holding talks with several potential merger
      candidates in businesses unrelated to its historical business. However,
      there can be no assurance that any sale or potential merger can be
      consummated on terms which will allow the Company to meet its current and
      future obligations.

      Should the above noted transactions not be consummated, management has
      arranged to replace its existing bank debt with new financing. The new
      financing would have the effect of increasing the availability of working
      capital; however, the Company may ultimately be required to enter into
      other strategic transactions in order to generate positive cash flow and
      to meet its current and future obligations.

      The Company has received notification from the Nasdaq stock exchange that
      it is not in compliance with two requirements for continued listing on the
      Nasdaq NMS: the Company did not hold an annual stockholder meeting in 1998
      and the market value of the public float in the Company's common stock did
      not meet or exceed a minimum level of $5 million. The Company has
      scheduled a hearing on such matters with Nasdaq for

      January 14, 2000. There can be no assurance, however, that the Company
      will prevail at the hearing. The Company's ability to raise additional
      equity capital in the future could be adversely affected if the Company's
      common stock were no longer listed on a national exchange.

      There can be no assurance that management's plans as described above will
      be successful.

4.    DISCONTINUED OPERATION AND LOSS ON IMPAIRMENT OF MARKETABLE SECURITIES

      In February 1998, the Company suspended the production activities of its
      ChemWay operation which was engaged in the packaging and marketing of
      automotive after-market chemical products. In March 1998, the Company made
      the decision to sell ChemWay and recorded an estimated loss on disposal of
      $705,000 (net of applicable income tax benefit of $395,000) which included
      a provision for losses of $200,000 during the phase-out period. The
      results of operations of ChemWay have been classified as discontinued
      operations and prior periods have been restated. Summary operating results
      are as follows (in thousands):

      (1) Through December 30, 1998.

      On December 30, 1998, the Company completed the sale of ChemWay to
      Affiliated Resources Corporation (Affiliated). At that time, the Company
      received 1.5 million shares of common stock of Affiliated in exchange for
      all the outstanding common stock of ChemWay. In accordance with the terms
      of the sale agreement, on December 30, 1999, the Company became entitled
      to receive an additional one million shares of common stock of Affiliated
      since the average closing price of Affiliated common stock fell below an
      agreed-upon price. The Company recorded a gain on the sale, net of
      $1,203,000 of income taxes, of $3,973,000 in the first quarter of 1999. As
      a result of the sale, the estimated loss on disposal and the related
      provision for losses during the phase-

      out period recorded in the second and third quarters of 1998 were reversed
      during the fourth quarter of 1998.

      Affiliated common stock is quoted on the Nasdaq Over-the-Counter Bulletin
      Board. In accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, the
      Affiliated common stock received in exchange for the common stock of
      ChemWay was valued at its "fair value" indicated by the bid price of $6.00
      per share at the transaction date resulting in the gain noted above. The
      Company's investment in Affiliated common stock is unregistered and
      illiquid; in addition, the average trading volume of Affiliated is small
      in comparison to the number of shares held by the Company. The trading
      price of Affiliated stock has been volatile, ranging from a reported low
      closing price in the quarter ended June 30, 1998 of $0.88 to closing
      prices of $6.00,$0.63 and $0.27 at December 31, 1998, June 30, 1999 and
      September 30, 1999, respectively. At December 31, 1998, Affiliated
      reported, in its Annual Report on Form 10-KSB, an accumulated deficit of
      $7,630,070 and a negative working capital balance of $912,605. Affiliated
      reported no revenues from operations and a loss from operations of
      $526,843 during the last six months of 1998. In its September 30, 1999
      quarterly report on Form 10-QSB, Affiliated reported revenues from
      operations of $486,000, a net loss of $1.6 million, negative working
      capital of $1.6 million, an accumulated deficit of $9.2 million and
      stockholders' equity of $5.0 million.

      Subsequent to the exchange of ChemWay common stock for Affiliated common
      stock, the Affiliated stock has declined in value to $0.27 per share at
      September 30, 1999. Management does not believe that the stock price of
      Affiliated will increase in the foreseeable future and has determined that
      its investment in Affiliated common stock is permanently impaired and,
      accordingly, has recorded a realized loss of $8,602,000. While the Company
      does not intend to sell its Affiliated common stock in the foreseeable
      future, there can be no assurance that the Company would be able to
      realize the recorded value of the Affiliated common stock.

      On March 31, 1999, the Company amended its credit agreement with one of
      its bank lenders (the Refinancing), pursuant to which the bank (i) waived
      all previous and continuing covenant defaults; (ii) extended the maturity
      of its loan balance to January 31, 2001; and (iii) assumed the amounts
      outstanding under the other bank lender's loans under their current terms
      and conditions. Under the terms of the Refinancing, such bank lender
      received a first-lien position on all of the assets of the Company. The
      Refinancing contains certain financial covenant obligations, including
      minimum net worth, minimum earnings before interest, taxes and
      depreciation, working capital ratio and fixed charge coverage ratio. At
      September 30, 1999, the Company was in violation of substantially all of
      these covenants; however, the bank has waived such covenant defaults
      through December 31, 1999. Since there is no assurance that the Company
      can comply with the covenants subsequent to December 31, 1999, nor has the
      bank waived or amended such covenants past December 31, 1999, all of the
      debt due to this bank has been classified as current at September 30,
      1999.

      The Company is prohibited by its bank agreement from payment of any cash
      dividends and from obtaining additional debt without the bank's consent.

      The Company's capital lease liability relates to the lease of the
      Company's information system and trucks which were capitalized using
      effective interest rates of 9.3% and 9%, respectively. At September 30,
      1999 and 1998, the gross amount of assets recorded

      In May 1998, the Company issued warrants to purchase 100,000 shares of the
      Company's common stock at an exercise price of $1.00 per share in exchange
      for certain consulting services and recorded compensation expense of
      $38,500. The warrants were exercised in July 1998.

      In December 1994, the Company adopted the ESI Stock Benefit Plan. Up to
      420,000 shares of the Company's common stock may be purchased or granted
      under the plan, and provision has been made for automatic increases in
      such amount of shares in the event the number of common shares issued by
      the Company increases to specified levels. An option granted under the
      plan by the Board of Directors to a key employee may be an incentive stock
      option or a nonqualified option and may be accompanied by stock
      appreciation rights or limited rights. Incentive stock options must be
      granted at an exercise price of not less than 100% of the then fair market
      value of the stock. Nonqualified stock options must be granted at an
      exercise price of not less than 90% of the then fair market value of the
      stock. All options shall expire upon termination of employment or within
      five or ten years of the date of grant. Nonemployee directors shall be
      automatically granted nonqualified options to purchase 2,500 shares of
      common stock annually. Vesting is to be determined by the Board of
      Directors.

      In August 1995, the Company granted contingent stock awards to two
      individuals. The individuals were granted an aggregate of 105,000 shares
      of restricted common stock which vested in fiscal 1998, 1997 and 1996,
      subject to achievements of certain profitability levels. In 1998, 1997 and
      1996, such provisions were not met and all grants were canceled.

      In June 1996, an officer of the Company was awarded 525 shares of
      restricted common stock.

      In May and December 1997, the Company granted certain employees options to
      purchase an aggregate of 330,600 shares of common stock at exercise prices
      ranging from $1.31 to $4.00. The options vested upon the Company's common
      stock reaching a market value of $6.50 per share for five consecutive days
      as specified in the agreements. The grants would be canceled if such
      provisions were not met. The provisions were met in November 1998. The
      Company recorded compensation expense of $1.1 million and $229,000 for
      continuing and discontinued operations, respectively, in the fourth
      quarter of 1998 for the difference in the exercise prices of the options
      and the market price of the Company's stock at September 30, 1998.
      Additional compensation expense of $208,000 and $40,000 for continuing and
      discontinued operations, respectively, was recorded in the first quarter
      of 1999 for the difference in the market price of the Company's stock at
      September 30, 1998 and $6.50 per share.

      In December 1998, the Company granted certain members of the Board of
      Directors options to acquire an aggregate of 7,500 shares at $11.63 per
      share.

      The fair value of the options granted is estimated using the Black-Scholes
      option-pricing model with the following assumptions for 1999: no dividend
      yield, volatility of 92%, risk-free interest rate of 4.5% to 4.9% and an
      expected life of 3.7 to 5 years. For 1998, the following assumptions were
      used: no dividend yield, volatility of 40%, risk-free interest rate of 5.5
      - 5.7% and an expected life of five years.

      On June 1, 1998, the Company agreed to issue 350,000 common shares for

      has the right to sell the shares back to the Company at $4 per share until
      ninety days following the registration of the shares.

10.   RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

      During 1999, the Company leased three convenience store locations from Mr.
      J. L. Evans, the largest shareholder of the Company. One ten-year lease
      commenced in June 1987 with monthly lease payments of $2,500 and allows
      for one five-year automatic renewal at the Company's option. One ten-year
      lease commenced in December 1995 with monthly lease payments of $1,500 and
      allows for two five-year automatic renewals at the Company's option. The
      other location was sold by Mr. Evans in December 1998. The amounts paid
      under these leases were $54,300, $76,800 and $73,000 for the years ended
      September 30, 1999, 1998 and 1997. Future minimum lease commitments as of
      September 30, 1999 are $119,500.

      As of September 30, 1997, the Company rented, on a month-to-month basis,
      five convenience store locations from Mr. Evans. Previously, the Company
      rented additional locations which were sold by Mr. Evans to unrelated
      parties. The total month-to-month rent paid for the year ended September
      30, 1998 was $34,800 and $104,000 for the year ended September 30, 1997.
      All five locations were sold by Mr. Evans to unrelated parties in December
      1997.

      Other current assets at September 30, 1998 include a $111,000 note
      receivable from a former director which was refinanced from an earlier
      note. The note was repaid in December 1998.

      From time to time, the Company makes advances to individuals who are
      shareholders, directors, officers and/or employees. Such advances are
      usually unsecured and accrue interest at 9%. There were no advances
      outstanding at September 30, 1999 and 1998.

11.   CONTINGENT LIABILITIES

      From time to time the Company exchanges refined products with suppliers by
      agreeing to purchase or sell refined products at a future date. Such
      activity could adversely affect the results of operations and financial
      condition of the Company if the market prices of such products were to
      fluctuate significantly. As of September 30, 1999, management believes the
      Company had no material risk related to such activities.

      The Company is a guarantor of a $210,000 obligation of ChemWay to a bank.
      During 1999, the Company paid $35,000 to satisfy its obligations under
      this guarantee.

      A purported class action lawsuit has been filed against the Company and
      several of its current and former officers and directors on behalf of
      purchasers of the Company's common stock.

      The lawsuit asserts that the defendants violated federal securities laws
      by issuing allegedly false and misleading statements in 1997, 1998 and
      1999 about the Company's financial condition and results of operations.
      The lawsuit demands, among other relief, unspecified compensatory damages,
      attorney's fees and the costs of conducting the litigation. It is not
      possible, at this time, to predict the impact that the lawsuit may have
      upon the Company, nor is it possible to predict whether any other suits or
      claims may arise out of these matters in the future. It is reasonably
      possible, however, that the outcome of any present or future litigation
      may have a material adverse impact on the Company's financial condition or
      results of operations in one or more future periods. The Company intends
      to defend itself vigorously in these matters.

      The Company is subject to litigation, primarily as a result of customer
      claims, in the ordinary conduct of its operations. As of September 30,
      1999, the Company had no knowledge of any legal proceedings, other than as
      described above, which, by themselves or in the aggregate, could be
      expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company.

12.   EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS

      The Company established a defined contribution benefit plan, the ESI
      Employee Retirement Plan, effective July 1, 1997. Employees become
      eligible for participation in the plan upon attaining the age of 21 and
      completion of 12 consecutive months of employment and 1,000 hours or more
      of service. The Company contributes an amount equal to 50% of employee
      voluntary contributions up to a maximum of 5% of the employee's
      compensation. Such contributions may be made in the common stock of the
      Company. The Company recorded contributions to the plan of $61,000,
      $45,000 and $40,000 during fiscal 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively.

      In 1992, the Company adopted an employee stock ownership plan to provide
      retirement benefits to eligible employees. The Company recorded
      contributions to the plan of $21,000 and $40,000 during fiscal 1998 and
      1997, respectively. Effective December 31, 1998, the employee stock
      ownership plan was merged into the ESI Employee Retirement Plan.

13.   SEGMENT REPORTING

      During the year ended September 30, 1999, the Company adopted SFAS 131,
      "Disclosure About Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information".
      Prior years' segment information has been restated to conform to the
      current-year presentation. The Company has four reportable segments: Texas
      petroleum marketing, Texas convenience stores, Louisiana petroleum
      marketing and convenience store operations and environmental remediation
      services. The Texas petroleum marketing segment sells motor fuels to the
      public

      through retail outlets in southeast Texas and supplies the Company's Texas
      convenience stores with motor fuels. The Texas convenience stores feature
      self-service motor fuels and a variety of food and nonfood merchandise in
      southeast Texas. As described in Note 2, the Company has agreed to sell
      its Texas petroleum marketing and convenience store operations. The
      Louisiana operations sell motor fuels to the public through retail outlets
      and through convenience stores that feature self-service motor fuels and a
      variety of food and nonfood merchandise in Louisiana. The environmental
      remediation services segment serves the petroleum industry in the
      southeast Texas market area.

      The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in
      the summary of significant accounting policies. The Company evaluates
      performance based on operating income (loss). Intersegment sales and
      transfers are accounted for as if such sales or transfers were to third
      parties, that is, at current market prices.
