Ecology and Environment, Inc.
Notes To Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited)

1.       Summary of significant accounting principles

          a.   Consolidation

          The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned and majority owned subsidiaries.  Also reflected in the financial statements are the 50% ownership in two Chinese operating joint ventures, Beijing Yi Yi Ecology and Engineering Co. Ltd. and The Tianjin Green Engineering Company.  These joint ventures are accounted for under the equity method.  All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.  The consolidated balance sheet at April 26, 2003 and the accompanying consolidated statements of income, cash flows, and of changes in shareholders' equity are unaudited.  In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of such financial statements have been included.  Such adjustments consisted only of normal recurring items.  The accompanying financial statements should be reviewed in conjunction with the Company's fiscal year ended July 31, 2002 audited financial statements.

          b.   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 and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reported period.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.

          c.   Revenue Recognition

          Certain amounts of the Company's revenues are derived from cost-plus-fixed fee contracts using the percentage of completion method based on costs incurred plus the fee earned. The fees under certain government contracts are determined in accordance with performance.  Such awards are recognized at the time the amounts can be reasonably determined.  Fixed price contracts are also accounted for on the percentage of completion method.  Provisions for estimated contract adjustments relating to cost based contracts have been deducted from gross revenues in the accompanying consolidated statement of income.  These provisions are estimated and accrued annually based on government sales volume.  Such adjustments typically arise as a result of interpretations of cost allowability under cost based contracts. 

          Revenues related to long-term government contracts are subject to audit by an agency of the United States government.  Government audits have been completed through fiscal year 1993 and are currently in process for fiscal years 1994 through 2001.  However, final rates have not been negotiated under these audits since 199l.  The majority of the balance in the allowance for contract adjustments account represents a reserve against possible adjustments for fiscal years 1992 through 2002.

          Deferred revenue balances at April 26, 2003 and July 31, 2002 represent net advances received under the Saudi and Kuwait contracts.  The Company has received approximately $12.0 million of net advances under these contracts.  Those advances are amortized against future progress billings over the respective contract periods.

          d.   Income Taxes

         The Company follows the asset and liability approach to account for income taxes.  This approach requires the recognition of deferred tax liabilities and assets for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the carrying amounts and the tax bases of assets and liabilities.  Although realization is not assured, management believes it is more likely than not that the recorded net deferred tax assets will be realized.  Since in some cases management has utilized estimates, the amount of the net deferred tax asset considered realizable could be reduced in the near term.  No provision has been made for United States income taxes applicable to undistributed earnings of foreign subsidiaries as it is the intention of the Company to indefinitely reinvest those earnings in the operations of those entities.

          e.   Inventories

         Inventories consist of shrimp, feed and chemicals and are stated at the lower of cost or market and are included in other current assets in the amount of $664,670 at April 26, 2003 and $1,098,967 at July 31, 2002.

          f.   Impairment of Long Lived Assets

          The Company reviews the carrying value of its long-lived assets, whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the historical carrying value of an asset may no longer be appropriate.  The Company assesses recoverability of the carrying value of the asset by estimating the future net cash flows expected to result from the asset, including eventual disposition.  If the future net cash flows are less than the carrying value of the asset, an impairment loss is recorded equal to the difference between the asset's carrying value and fair value.  The current situation at the shrimp farm is disappointing.  After consulting with aquaculture experts earlier in the year and as discussed at the annual shareholders' meeting, it was determined that higher temperatures, while not preventing the white spot virus, have been shown to substantially lower, if not eliminate, the mortality.  Subsequent to the end of the third quarter, the farm incurred unusually heavy rains and substantial cloud cover.  During the period of May 13 through May 17, there was approximately 8.5 inches of rain.  This rainfall, combined with the cloud cover, caused the pond temperatures to decline significantly.  Animal sampling of ponds in active production showed sustained reduction in biomass from the third week of May to date.  This reduction casts in doubt the viability of the current crop and necessitates a re-evaluation of the Company's business plan for the Shrimp Farm operation as it is predicated on temperature control.  As a result the Company has put the farm in a phase-down mode until all options can be evaluated.  Management anticipates it is likely an impairment charge of up to $4.5 million net of tax will occur in the fourth quarter.

          g.   Reclassification

          Certain prior year balances have been reclassified to conform to the current quarter presentation.


2.       Contract Receivables, Net

	Contract receivables are comprised of:
				April 26, 2003			July 31, 2002
				Unaudited			Audited
	United States Government
	Billed		$	3,884,196		$	4,271,382
	Unbilled			1,226,813			1,119,391
				5,111,009			5,390,773
	Industrial customers and state
	and municipal governments
	Billed			39,575,947			19,748,261
	Unbilled			5,166,069			6,635,038
				44,742,016			26,383,299
	Less allowance for contract
	adjustments			(3,097,804	)		(2,505,123	)
			$	46,755,221		$	29,268,949

          United States government receivables arise from long-term U.S. government prime contracts and subcontracts.  Unbilled receivables result from revenues which have been earned, but are not billed as of period-end. Management anticipates that the April 26, 2003 unbilled receivables will be substantially billed and collected in fiscal year 2003.  Within the above-billed balances are contractual retainages in the amount of approximately $656,000 at April 26, 2003 and $684,000 at July 31, 2002.  Included in other accrued liabilities is an additional allowance for contract adjustments relating to potential cost disallowances on amounts billed and collected in current and prior years' projects of approximately $2,332,000 at April 26, 2003 and $2,332,000 at July 31, 2002.  An allowance for contract adjustments is recorded for contract disputes and government audits when the amounts are estimable.

3.       Earnings Per Share

          Basic EPS is computed by dividing income available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period.  Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that would occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock or resulted in the issuance of common stock that then shared in the earnings of the Company.

4.       Segment Reporting

          Ecology and Environment, Inc. has three reportable segments: consulting services, analytical laboratory services, and aquaculture.  The consulting services segment provides broad based environmental services encompassing audits and impact assessments, surveys, air and water quality management, environmental engineering, environmental infrastructure planning, and industrial hygiene and occupational health studies to a world wide base of customers.  The analytical laboratory provides analytical testing services to industrial and governmental clients for the analysis of waste, soil and sediment samples.  The shrimp aquaculture facility located in Costa Rica, produces shrimp grown in a controlled environment for markets worldwide.  The fish farm located in Jordan was purchased in July 2001 and ponds are currently being stocked and awaiting the first harvests.

          The Company evaluates segment performance and allocates resources based on operating profit before interest income/expense and income taxes.  The accounting policies of the reportable segments are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies.  Intercompany sales from the analytical services segment to the consulting segment are recorded at market selling price, intercompany profits are eliminated.  The Company's reportable segments are separate and distinct business units that offer different products.  Consulting services are sold on the basis of time charges while analytical services and aquaculture products are sold on the basis of product unit prices.

          In July 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141, Business Combinations, and SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets.  Statement No. 141 requires that all business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001, be accounted for using the purchase method of accounting.  Statement No. 142 discusses how intangible assets that are acquired should be accounted for in financial statements upon their acquisition and also how goodwill and other intangible assets should be accounted for after they have been initially recognized in the financial statements.  Beginning on August 1, 2001 with the adoption of Statement No. 142, goodwill existing on July 31, 2001, is no longer being amortized.  Rather the goodwill is subject to an annual assessment for impairment.  The adoption of SFAS No. 142 did not have a material impact on the Company's financial statements.

6.       Stock Award Plan

          Effective March 16, 1998, the Company adopted the Ecology and Environment, Inc. 1998 Stock Award Plan (the "Award Plan") under which key employees (including officers) of the Company or any of its present or future subsidiaries may be designated to receive awards of Class A Common stock of the Company as a bonus for services  rendered to the Company or its subsidiaries, without payment therefore,  based upon the fair market value of the common stock at the time of the award.  The plan requires a three-year vesting period.  The 1998 plan agreement provides that the stock cannot be sold, assigned, or transferred before a three-year vesting period is completed and that the shares are forfeited if an individual's employment is terminated before the vesting period is completed.  Accordingly, the Company is amortizing the expense associated with the issuance of the shares ratably over the vesting period.

          The Company issued 38,712 shares in November of 2002, 50,242 shares in fiscal year 2002, and 92,339 shares in fiscal year 2001.  Unearned compensation is recorded at the time of issuance and is being amortized over the vesting period.

7.       Line of Credit

          The Company maintains an unsecured line of credit available for working capital and letters of credit (LOCs) of $20 million with a bank at ½% below the prevailing prime rate.  A second line of credit has been established at another bank for up to $13.5 million exclusively for LOCs.  Demand loans outstanding at April 26, 2003 under these lines of credit amounted to $5,800,000.  At April 26, 2003 and July 31, 2002, the Company had LOCs outstanding totaling $16,780,734 and $13,823,000, respectively.  The LOCs were obtained to secure cash advances and performance guarantees under the Saudi and Kuwait contracts.

          If the Company incurs an impairment loss in the fourth quarter, it will violate one of the covenants of the secondary line of credit.  Under this covenant the Company is required to maintain a minimum net worth of $43,000,000.   The Company believes it will be able to negotiate covenant changes to its existing credit line or secure alternate financing before the LOCs require renewal.  LOCs outstanding under the secondary line will require renewal at various stages from September 2003 to January 2004.  In the event the covenant is not waived or the credit line is not re-negotiated, the Company could borrow additional funds under its primary line of credit or seek financing elsewhere.

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

Financial Condition

          At April 26, 2003 the Company had a working capital balance of  $28.1 million, down $2.2 million from the $30.3 million balance reported at July 31, 2002.  Cash and cash equivalents decreased $6.0 million as a result of a $17.5 million increase in contracts receivable and a $1.9 million increase in accounts payable.  The increase in contracts receivable was mainly attributable to the Saudi Arabia and Kuwait Contracts entered into by the Company’s subsidiaries during fiscal year 2002.  As of April 26, 2003 the Company has receivables outstanding on the Saudi and Kuwait contracts of $8.4 and $10.4 million respectively.  Net advances on these contracts are $12.0 million, which is backed by LOCs.  Subsequent to April 26, 2003, the Company collected $5.4 million on the Saudi and Kuwait contracts.  Due to the reduction in cash and cash equivalents, the Company had a demand loan payable in the amount of $5.8 million at April 2003.

          The Company maintains an unsecured line of credit of $20.0 million with a bank at ½% below the prevailing prime rate.  A second line of credit is available at another bank for up to $13.5 million, exclusively for LOCs.  The Company has outstanding LOC’s at April 26, 2003 in the amount of $16.8 million.  These LOC’s were obtained to secure advance payments and performance guarantees for contracts in the Middle East.  There are no significant additional working capital requirements pending at April 26, 2003.

          If the Company incurs an impairment loss in the fourth quarter, it will violate one of the covenants of the secondary line of credit.  Under this covenant the Company is required to maintain a minimum net worth of $43,000,000.  The Company believes it will be able to negotiate covenant changes to its existing credit line or secure alternate financing before the LOCs require renewal.  LOCs outstanding under the secondary line will require renewal at various stages from September 2003 to January 2004.  In the event the covenant is not waived or the credit line is not re-negotiated, the Company could borrow additional funds under its primary line of credit or seek financing elsewhere.

Results of Operations

Net Revenue

          Net revenues for the third quarter of fiscal year 2003 were $24.4 million, up 33% from the $18.3 million reported in third quarter of fiscal year 2002.  The increase in net revenues was achieved across a broad range of customers.  The Company’s contracts in Saudi Arabia and Kuwait together with increases in net revenues from various commercial and US Department of Defense (DOD) clients accounted for the majority of the increase.  The Saudi and Kuwait contracts reported increased net revenues for the third quarter of fiscal year 2003 of $1.1 million and $1.0 million respectively.  The Company reported commercial net revenues for the third quarter of fiscal year 2003 of $4.6 million, up 156% from the $1.8 million reported in the third quarter of fiscal year 2002.  This increase is mainly attributable to the increase in work on pipeline projects.  Net revenues reported for DOD clients were $4.4 million for the third quarter of fiscal year 2003, up 52% from the $2.9 million reported in the third quarter of fiscal year 2002.  The increase in DOD net revenues is due primarily to projects with the Navy Atlantic Division, USACE Kansas City, USACE Albuquerque and a new contract at the Mountain Home AFB

          Walsh Environmental, a majority owned subsidiary, reported net revenues of  $1.9 million for the third quarter of fiscal year 2003, an increase of $690,000 from the $1.2 million reported for the third quarter of fiscal year 2002.

          Net revenues for the third quarter of fiscal year 2002 were $18.3 million, up $1.3 million from the $17.0 million reported in fiscal year 2001.  During the third quarter the contracts in Saudi Arabia and Kuwait reported net revenues of $3.1 million and $1.0 million respectively.  The company also reported an increase in net revenues from various state clients for the seventh quarter in a row.  Compared to the prior year, net revenues for the third quarter increased by $1.5 million for these state clients.  Net revenues from U.S. Environmental Protection Agency  (USEPA) contracts decreased by $1.3 million due to the completion of five major contracts with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA).  The Shrimp Farm operation had reported net revenues of $400,000 for the third quarter of fiscal year 2002 and $892,000 year to date.  Limited harvests had been successful as the operation continued its efforts to completely restock the ponds and fully recover from the white spot syndrome virus.

Income Before Income Taxes and Minority Interest

          The Company’s income before income taxes and minority interest for the third quarter of fiscal year 2003 was $1.3 million, up 61% from the $780,000 reported in the third quarter of fiscal year 2002.  The increase in income before taxes and minority interest was mainly attributable to continued success at increasing efficiencies and obtaining higher margin work.  The Company’s Analytical Services Center (ASC) reported operating income of $42,000 for the third quarter of fiscal year 2003 compared to an operating loss of $302,000 for the third quarter of fiscal year 2002.  The ASC has benefited from additional sales revenue or approximately $900,000 under the Kuwait contract and improved production efficiencies due to utilization of new equipment and testing methods.  The Company’s subsidiaries, excluding the Shrimp Farm, reported an increase in income before income taxes and minority interest of $136,000 for the third quarter of fiscal year 2003. 

          The Company’s Shrimp Farm operation, based in Costa Rica, reported a loss before income taxes and minority interest for the third quarter of fiscal year 2003 of $643,000 compared to a loss of $482,000 reported in the third quarter of fiscal year 2002.  The current situation at the shrimp farm in Costa Rica is disappointing.  After consulting with aquaculture experts earlier in the year and as discussed at the annual shareholders' meeting, it was determined that higher temperatures, while not preventing the white spot virus, have been shown to substantially lower, if not eliminate, the mortality.  Subsequent to the end of the third quarter, the farm incurred unusually heavy rains and substantial cloud cover.  During the period of May 13 through May 17, there was approximately 8.5 inches of rain.  This rainfall, combined with the cloud cover, caused the pond temperatures to decline significantly.  Animal sampling of ponds in active production showed sustained reduction in biomass from the third week of May to date.  This reduction casts in doubt the viability of the current crop and necessitates a re-evaluation of the Company's business plan for the Shrimp Farm operation as it is predicated on temperature control.  As a result the Company has put the farm in a phase-down mode until all options can be evaluated.  Management anticipates it is likely an impairment charge of up to $4.5 million net of tax will occur in the fourth quarter.

          The Company’s income before income taxes and minority interest for the third quarter of fiscal year 2002 was $780,000, up 8% from the $722,000 reported in the third quarter of fiscal year 2001.  The shrimp farm operation, based in Costa Rica, had reported an operating loss of $481,000 for the third quarter of fiscal year 2002, an increased loss of $226,000 from the prior year.  The Company’s subsidiaries had reported an increase in international work during the third quarter of fiscal year 2002.  The new contracts in Saudi Arabia and Kuwait were the main reason for this increase.

Item 3.   Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

          The Company may have exposure to market risk for change in interest rates, primarily related to its investments and debt instruments.  The Company does not have any derivative financial instruments included in its investments.  The Company invests only in instruments that meet high credit quality standards.  The Company is averse to principal loss and ensures the safety and preservation of its invested funds by limiting default risk, market risk and reinvestment risk.  As of April 26, 2003, the Company's investments consisted of short-term commercial paper and mutual funds.  The Company does not expect any material loss with respect to its investments.

Item 4.   Controls and Procedures

          (a)   Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures. 

           The Company's chief executive officer and chief financial officer have concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-14(c)) are sufficiently effective to ensure that the information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports it files under the Exchange Act is gathered, analyzed and disclosed with adequate timeliness, accuracy and completeness, based on an evaluation of such controls and procedures conducted within 90 days prior to the date hereof.

          (b)   Changes in internal controls.

          There have been no significant changes in the Company's internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect these controls subsequent to the date of the evaluation referred to above.
